Chapter 255 Song Xiu's Obsession

Song Jin was about to turn around at the door.

"Boss!"

Someone hurried over and shouted.

Song Jin looked over and found that it was a clerk from Jifang Pharmacy.

The waiter handed Song Jin a letter.

When Song Jin opened it, he frowned immediately. The letter was sent from Huizhou, telling Song Jin that Song Xiu had actually come to the capital with the caravan.

"According to the time on the letter, she should have arrived in the capital." Song Jin was surprised that Song Xiu came to Beijing, but not very surprised.

Let people pay attention.

Just don't let Song Xiu's death bring trouble to yourself.

Song Jin had no intention of paying any attention to Song Xiu.

But there are some things that you can't just ignore.

The yamen runner who was supposed to bring the good news did not come.

Instead, it was Song Xiu, carrying a bag, and her hired maid Shanhu who came.

"Sister! It's really hard to find your place."

Song Xiu came over exhausted, and as soon as she entered the hall she drank a large bowl of tea, wiped the sweat off her forehead, and said happily, "I heard that the results will be announced today, luckily I made it in time."

Song Jin saw Song Xiu’s face full of joy.

Thinking about her coming to see him on purpose, a thought suddenly occurred to her mind: Song Xiu might have come to see her on purpose just to show off. In his previous life, this was the time when Qin Mingsong was at his most glorious.

Song Xiu poured another cup of tea.

She held the bowl of tea and drank it in small sips.

Very polite and courteous.

As long as she doesn't go crazy, she still looks pretty. When they were almost done drinking, Song Xiu began to look around, peeking outside from time to time, "Where's your sick child? How come I didn't see him?"

Song Jin did not answer her, but asked: "You came to the capital like this?"

"Isn't it okay to do it this way?"

"You're so lucky to have made it here safely along the way." Song Jin had to say something to the fact that she dared to travel from Huizhou to the capital with only a maid and arrived here safely.

Ignorance is fearless.

Song Xiu said dissatisfiedly: "I asked you a question, but you haven't answered me yet."

"Ask my husband what he wants to do?"

Song Jin became a little wary. There was no need to guess. Song Xiu must have been holding back when she asked about Qin Chi. "Song Xiu, don't talk nonsense in front of my husband again. Doctor Jing said that he is in good health and can live to be seventy or eighty years old."

There was a flash of disbelief in Song Xiu's eyes.

But this time I learned my lesson and didn't ask any more questions.

"I'm hungry. Does sister have anything to eat? Sleeping in the open air all this time is not a life for human beings." Song Xiu looked towards the kitchen.

"I'll give you some steamed buns later and then send you to find Qin Mingsong." Song Jin didn't want Song Xiu to live at home.

Song Xiu curled her lips, "Just steamed buns? Forget it. I know you have no money because you live in such a small house. I mean, that sickly person has to take medicine and study. Your dowry has been spent. You will suffer in the future."

People live outside, and it’s in the capital.

Song Xiu thought about it and thought that she should have spent almost all the money over the years.

Song Jin didn't want to pay attention to her, "Don't bother with that, just eat quickly and get out."

"I came here specially just to see how you were doing. I was thinking about you all the way." Song Xiu said with a smile.

Song Jin sneered, but didn't want to tell her.

Wait for Song Xiu to perform by herself. After she finishes the performance, she will probably ask to find Qin Mingsong on her own.

The cook brought some food to the table.

A plate of buns, rice porridge, side dishes, etc. were enough for Song Xiu and her servant to eat.

Song Xiu sat at the dining table.

Shanhu served her meal. Song Xiu acted like a young lady, and Song Jin's eyelids twitched as he watched her.

The person eating on the side did not forget to talk to Song Jin: "Sister, I won't eat your meal for free. When my husband passes the imperial examination and returns home in glory, I will treat you to a good meal. I am not you, so I promise not to feed you buns and pickles."

"Oh!"

Song Jin sat aside and watched coldly.

So Song Xiu boasted sentence after sentence.

In her mouth, Qin Mingsong seemed to have passed the imperial examination and became a high-ranking official. While she was talking, she looked at Song Jin and criticized her from time to time, "Sister, what are you wearing? You are dressed like an ordinary person. You don't have any jewelry on you. You are not as rich as me."

After saying this, she deliberately revealed the gold bracelet on her wrist.

And that look of pity, as if Song Jin was a poor little thing who was being mistreated.

Song Jin's heart was calm at this moment.

Now she didn't know how Qin Mingsong did in the exam. After all, when Old Li went to check the list, he was so excited when he saw that Qin Chi got the first place that he forgot everything else.

But one thing is certain.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Let's not talk about whether Qin Mingsong can pass the exam. Even if he passes the exam, he is far inferior to Qin Chi! I really don't know where Song Xiu's sense of superiority comes from? He came all the way here just to show off in front of her?

Song Jin had no idea.

The motivation behind Song Xiu's coming here was to show off in front of Song Jin and let Song Jin see her beauty with his own eyes.

This has been Song Xiu's obsession for two lifetimes.

Whenever she thought about stepping on Song Jin and making her look up to her, Song Xiu's heart surged with excitement. You know, after the marriage, she thought she could live a good life, but in the end, she was still not as good as Song Jin.

Been waiting for so many years.

What we are waiting for is Qin Mingsong to pass the imperial examination!

Song Xiu's lips kept rising, her eyes filled with pride, "Sister, my good days are coming, you don't have to envy me, really."

"What is there to envy? Envy that you still don't have any children, or envy that you have to make trouble with your mistress all day long?"

Song Jin's words were poisonous, like a fatal blow.

Song Xiu's smile froze.

As if Song Jin was not disgusted enough, he continued: "Seeing you showing off, do you know what I was thinking?"

"What are you thinking about?" Song Xiu asked.

Song Jin straightened his sleeves and collar, sat upright on the chair, and said gently and generously, "You're just a clown."

"you--"

This made Song Xiu very angry.

In a fit of anger, he even put down his bowl and chopsticks and glared at Song Jin.

Seeing that Song Jin's expression remained unchanged and she showed no shame at all, Song Xiu suddenly imagined something else and giggled sweetly, "Sister, I know you envy me..."

“Here it comes! Here it comes!”

"The police are coming!"

Someone outside shouted excitedly.

Then there was the sound of gongs and drums, followed by the blast of firecrackers.

The man's rough congratulations came, but it was just the official who came to announce the good news that Qin Chi had passed the imperial examination and ranked first. Before the palace examination, everyone who saw him had to respectfully call him Qin Huiyuan.

Qin Chi came out.

Old Li is setting off firecrackers.

There were many people watching at the door, and servants were distributing candies and wedding money. As Huiyuan's wife, Song Jin naturally went out to help and calmly accepted the congratulations from outsiders.

Song Xiu stood at the door of the hall.

He stared at everything in front of him in amazement, unable to come back to his senses for a long time, and then he muttered something in his mouth.

Coral stood beside her with her head lowered and her eyes submissive, and vaguely heard her say "it's not true" and "none of this is true" and so on.

Shanhu called Song Xiu in a low voice several times.

Song Xiu was immersed in her own world, as if she had gone mad.
