Chapter 116 Adding Bricks and Tiles
Qin Mingsong originally thought that some woman was pretending to be his wife and asked him to meet her at the gate.
When I saw the familiar slim figure at the door, even though she was wearing a veil, I could still tell at a glance that it was Song Xiu.
Song embroidery is carefully dressed up.
Choosing to wear a veil hat instead of a veil was also a little bit of Song Xiu's trick.
Some people may not be able to tell the difference between a veil and a li, but they all know that they are hats used by women to cover their faces when they go out to prevent passers-by from peeping at them.
The hood skirt of the veil hat is only as long as the neck, which can reveal the face slightly, making it vaguely visible, and will not cover the woman's exquisite makeup and gorgeous clothes, satisfying the woman's love of beauty.
In contrast, the hat of the Muli is made of rattan, with a soft curtain on the edge. The soft curtain is usually larger and falls below the knees when worn to cover the body. Song Jin wore the Mili every time he went out.
Song Xiu originally wanted to give Qin Mingsong a surprise.
But Qin Mingsong was more frightened when he saw her.
"Xiu'er?!"
Qin Mingsong strode over and asked, "Why is Xiu'er here?"
"Didn't my husband send someone to pick me up?" Song Xiu asked in confusion.
Qin Mingsong's heart tightened.
Is someone plotting against him? "Wow, that's Brother Qin's wife? Just look at her graceful figure and you'll know she's pretty."
"She must be a beauty!"
"I'm wearing a veil, so I can't see clearly."
"You are a young fool, you don't know shit. This kind of half-hidden beauty is the real beauty."
"Go, go, why don't you go up and say hello? It's too far away and it's a little hard to see clearly."
Qin Mingsong knew that his classmates had followed him, but he did not look back and quickly pulled Song Xiu away.
Song Xiu shyly followed Qin Mingsong away, and even looked back at those classmates, "Husband, are those your classmates? Why don't we say hello?"
"Let's talk about it when we have time. I have something else to ask you." Qin Mingsong wanted to know more about who had used his name to bring Song Xiu to the provincial capital.
When you walk away, no one will pay attention.
Qin Mingsong then asked: "Xiu'er came to me, did your family say anything?"
He didn't say that he wasn't going to pick someone up, but instead hinted at other things.
Only then did Song Xiu remember that the person who brought her to the provincial capital gave her a new household registration and a letter.
The letter was signed saying it was for Qin Mingsong.
"I was asked to bring you a letter."
Song Xiu took out the letter from her sleeve pocket and asked, "Husband, do you want to go back to the rented house first?"
"A rented house?!"
Qin Mingsong's pupils shrank.
He also wanted to use the inconvenience of accommodation to send Song Xiu back to Qinjiagou! He hurriedly opened the envelope, took out the letter inside and read it, which immediately made Qin Mingsong furious, "Qin Qi'an?"
It turned out that he was the one who was causing trouble behind the scenes!
Qin Mingsong is a patient man.
Although he was furious, he managed to hold back his temper. "Did anything happen at home?"
"Oh, it's that sickly guy... He's fine. He hurried back from the provincial capital. My sister gave birth to twins." Song Xiu told Qin Mingsong what happened at home before coming to the provincial capital.
Say something here and something there.
Qin Mingsong pieced together the situation and realized that a lot of things had happened at home.
Following Song Xiu, they came to a rented house nearby.
After a careful inspection of the house, he found that the bedroom was fully stocked with pillows and bedding, and other daily necessities were also available. Even the rice, flour, grain, and oil stored in the kitchen were enough to last for three months.
The person who arranged it was very attentive.
Qin Mingsong couldn't help but think of what Qin Chi said in the letter.
She said that she was moved that he was studying in the capital and was still concerned about his family's situation, so she specially sent Song Xiu to reunite with him and arranged for his food, clothing, housing and transportation for three months.
When Qin Mingsong learned that Li had fainted and Song Jin had given birth to twins prematurely, he knew something bad had happened. In fact, he didn't understand why at the time. He wrote the letter on impulse after hearing the news.
Qin Mingsong then looked at the delighted Song Xiu.
When Song Xiu returned to the house, she had already taken off her veil.
She was leaning against Qin Mingsong tenderly, happily imagining their business, "I'm going to set up a study for my husband, so that you can have a quiet room to read. I'll be grinding ink for him!"
The red sleeves add fragrance and the beauty is by your side.
There is nothing a man doesn't want.
Qin Mingsong was not thinking about this at the moment. He was thinking about how to make amends. "I will write an apology letter and ask someone to send it back to Dalang."
Song Xiu didn't understand.
Qin Mingsong said guiltily, "I didn't expect that a letter from me would cause your sister to give birth prematurely, and also cause your sister-in-law to faint, and make your family worry for nothing."
"It's not my husband's fault."
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Song Xiu was unhappy. "You only wrote a letter because you care about your family. If you don't tell others, the news will spread to Qinjiagou sooner or later. If there is no letter, people will say that your husband doesn't care about family affection. They will say that you heard the news in the capital city but didn't write a letter home to tell us. Besides, aren't my sister-in-law and my elder sister fine?"
"Xiu'er still understands her husband best."
Qin Mingsong gently hugged Song Xiu and went back to the room. He whispered a few words in Song Xiu's ear, which made Song Xiu's face turn red. She glared at him with a soft look in her eyes.
Qin Mingsong did not return to the academy that night, but stayed here directly.
Early the next morning, Qin Mingsong went to the academy.
Song Xiu got up late.
She went to the kitchen to boil some hot water to wash her face. Only then did Song Xiu realize that she had a lot of housework to do, and she even had to cook three meals a day for herself.
If Song Xiu had the skill to cook, she would not have been chased around the courtyard and beaten by Old Liu, and had to use her own money to buy food on the street.
Just out of the alley, I arrived at the street corner.
In the morning, there will be vendors setting up stalls to sell breakfast, and most of the people who come here are students from nearby.
It has to be said that the house that Qin Chi's people rented for Song Xiu was very close to Ziyang Academy.
I sat down at a small stall and ordered a bowl of noodles.
Song Xiu heard people at the next table chatting.
"Brother, did you know that Qin Mingsong got another beauty yesterday? This time it was more powerful. The beauty claimed that she was his wife, haha."
"Is there such a thing?"
A young man next door was very interested. "Last time, the second daughter of the county magistrate's family didn't dare to say she was his wife. Whose family is this woman from?"
"I don't know. I heard he took her away."
"What kind of shit luck does Qin Mingsong have? He has so many beautiful women coming to him, including daughters of officials, daughters of rich families, and courtesans. I heard that even the one from the headmaster's family is fond of him..."
"Ahem, don't talk nonsense, this is still outside."
"What's the big deal? These erotic stories have spread all over the academy."
After that, one of them continued, "Alright, alright, eat quickly, or you'll be late!"
The two men dropped the silver for settlement, picked up the cloth bags containing books, and ran quickly towards the academy.
This caused Song Xiu's idea of standing up and asking them to abort before it could be put into practice.
Song Xiu was so angry at this time that she didn't even eat the noodles she ordered. She threw away the money for the noodles and wanted to go directly to the academy to inquire, but after walking a few steps, she sat back down.
He buried his head in eating noodles.
It tasted like he was gnawing at his enemy, and his face looked very ferocious.
Fortunately, the veil covered most of her face, so she didn't scare passers-by.
The two scholars who were talking walked to the corner and did not continue to go to Ziyang Academy. Instead, they went to a certain stronghold to report.
These two people were deliberately arranged by Qin Chi.
