Chapter 28: Don’t repay kindness with hatred

Life in the county town is peaceful.

Life has changed a little, but not much.

Song Jin found that Li was a very good mother-in-law. She would not make unreasonable demands or cause trouble. She was completely different from old Liu.

It was Qin Chi who Song Jin couldn't understand.

Qin Chi would go to the academy during the day, and Song Jin would go out early and come back late. They were still busy with their own things, but at night they had more normal communication between husband and wife.

Song Jin privately mentioned a few doctors with good medical skills, but Qin Chi just smiled and didn't respond.

Nothing was said, but the attitude showed.

He doesn't need it.

This made Song Jin confused.

Qin Chi did die of illness in his previous life. Wouldn't it have been better if he had a hidden illness and was treated earlier?

Qin Chi looked like he had completely given up.

But further inquiry would cross the line, and Song Jin hesitated for a moment before stopping asking. After all, Qin Chi gave her an increasingly mysterious feeling, as if he was trying hard to hide something.

Besides, Song Jin is also tired every day.

The top-quality medicinal materials were collected and processed in a timely manner.

I don't know how Shopkeeper Tao sold it, but the transaction was very quick. Yesterday, Song Jin got 5,300 taels.

He immediately took out three hundred taels.

He rewarded Jin Ling and Yin Long with one hundred each.

Xing Lun and Zhou Wei were each rewarded with fifty taels of silver, and everyone was allowed to rest for two days.

This reward was more than what they had earned after six years of hard work, and everyone was smiling.

Li stayed there until early autumn.

Saying that he would stay until Song Jin became pregnant was just a way to scare his son.

"Mom, it's nice to live here, why do you want to go back?"

Qin Chi doesn't want Li to go back.

Li's health is not good and he often has to take medicine.

It’s nice to recuperate in the county town.

Li laughed and scolded: "You have no conscience, don't you think about your father all these days? The two of us are eating and drinking well here, and he is left at home working like a slave..."

"My father will certainly be happy with it."

Qin Chi knows his father quite well.

Li Shishen gave him a strange look, "How do you know your father is happy with it?"

"In my father's heart, his wife is the most important, followed by his eldest grandson who has never been seen, and finally me, his worthless son."

"hehe……"

Li laughed out loud, "You are really wronging your father. In your father's eyes, you are still quite valuable."

"How much? Three cents?"

Qin Chi calmly said a number.

Song Jin wasn't quite sure why Qin Chi asked for three cents, but after he asked, Li laughed so hard that she fell over.

Qin Chi saw Song Jin's expression and asked, "Want to know the story behind the three cents?"

"Tell me what you think."

Song Jin did not spoil the fun.

Instead, Li excitedly talked about the origin of "three cents".

Back then, Boss Qin dug some mountain products and sold them at the village market, and he brought his three-year-old son with him. At that time, little Qin Chi was as cute as snow, and very popular.

A stranger passed by.

He came in front of Boss Qin and spoke a lot of foreign dialect.

Boss Qin didn't understand what the other party said and thought he was asking about the price of mountain products, so he directly said three cents and made a three gesture.

As a result, the other party threw down thirty taels of silver and wanted to take little Qin Chi away.

That scared Boss Qin so much that he thought he had run into a human trafficker, so he beat the guy up and sent him to the authorities.

It was a big joke.

The man had no son. When he saw little Qin Chi, he loved him so much that he couldn't walk. He wanted to buy him back to be his son.

There were many people in the mountains who sold their children, so I tentatively went up to ask.

I didn’t expect Boss Qin to offer a price…

This incident caused quite a stir at the time and almost spread throughout Yi County. Even the older people had heard of it.

Unable to resist Li's insistence, Qin Chi could only send her back.

Song Jin offered to go back with them.

This society is unfair to women.

But compared with the harshness of the previous dynasty, the laws of this dynasty were relatively lenient towards women. Widows could set up a female household and could take their dowry with them when they remarried.

Having lived one more life, Song Jin has become more resilient.

However, she would not be foolish enough to openly defy the rules and regulations of the church.

Even if it is for the convenience of future actions, one must behave like a gentle, quiet, respectful, frugal and kind young lady in front of others.

Early the next morning.

Song Jin and Qin Chi went to the street to buy some gifts.

Most of them are grains, meat, etc.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

They rented some carriages and the young couple personally sent Li back.

The carriage entering Qinjiagou still attracted a lot of attention from the villagers. Perhaps it could be said that Old Man Qin and his family had become the celebrities in the village recently.

Married a pair of sisters.

He also set up the Jifang Pharmacy and prepared to grow medicinal herbs.

The medicinal field has been basically tidied up and looks very much like what it is.

Old Mrs. Liu now walks with her head held high and her chest puffed out, looking more stylish than before.

However, Song Jin returned home and took a look.

They were all tanned and thinner, but they were full of energy.

This is the result of hard work in pioneering the new land.

Song Jin saw Song Xiu.

Song Xiu was coming back carrying a large bucket of washed clothes.

The resentment was about to overflow, and the once fair face was actually tanned.

This is incredible.

In her previous life, Song Xiu had her sister to protect her, and she had never done housework in the three years since she married into the Qin family.

It was she who stood in front of Song Xiu and did the work of washing clothes, cooking and cleaning with some bumps and bruises.

"Sister, you're back!"

Song Xiu dropped the bucket and rushed towards Song Jin.

Song Jin dodged sideways and raised his arm to block her. "What are you doing? Who wronged you?"

Song Xiu felt so wronged that tears were about to come out.

Seeing Song Jin avoiding her, she couldn't stop her tears any more, and they fell down, "Wuwu, sister, do you really not care about me? You left to enjoy life in the county town, but I have to work every day. If I don't work, I won't get any food, wuwu..."

Song Jin sneered in his heart.

What's the point of crying in front of her! This is just the beginning. There will be many days like this in the future. Didn't she live like this in her previous life? Those who don't work for Old Liu are not qualified to eat.

Even Old Man Qin was biased.

You still have to learn how to do light housework at home, otherwise no one will serve you.

I remember that in her previous life, Song Xiu once said that the Qin family had done her a favor, so it was her duty to help with the housework. She also said that she should not be ungrateful and repay kindness with hatred...

"Why are you crying? Are you mourning? My mother isn't dead yet!" Old Liu cursed loudly in the kitchen.

Song Xiu shuddered with fear.

Song Jin felt that it would take more evil to deal with evil people, and she was also good at pretending. She pulled Song Xiu aside with a distressed look and comforted her softly: "Xiu'er, the Qin family has been kind to us, and it is only right for us to do some housework. You must not blame them, and you must not repay kindness with enmity..."

Hearing Song Jin's words.

Song Xiu widened her eyes in disbelief and stared at Song Jin.

"Sister, how can you say that?!"

"Am I wrong?"

Song Jin looked at Song Xiu with eyes full of mockery.

The words seemed to be stuck in Song Xiu's throat.

She cried and complained about her grievances in the hope that Song Jin would soften his heart and take her to the county town on his own initiative.

This trick worked very well for Song Jin in the previous life. Why is it wrong now?

Wait, what Song Jin just said...
