Chapter 28: Fake Bracelet and Real Dagger
Two days can be considered fast or slow.
When Song Rui took Nan Nan to the vast wilderness of Meng Province, Song Baohe had not yet healed from the slap marks on his face.
He returned home that day and waited for Song Rui to come back and give him money.
His eldest sister and his second sister have a very good relationship. They grew up in the same bed.
It would be fine if his eldest sister didn’t know about the second sister’s situation, but if she knew, there is no way she would just ignore it.
Otherwise he wrote his last name backwards.
But without the address, she couldn't do anything even if she wanted to.
Not to mention that Ling Ye was not at home, even if he was there, what could they do?
Can't you find it by turning the whole world upside down?
As long as the three of them refuse to give the address, Song Rui will have to give in to them.
When he gets the money, he can hold his wedding in style.
Song Baohe didn't care whether his second sister could come back or not.
He waited and waited for two days, but Song Rui never came with the money.
Obviously in this situation, Song Rui should be more impatient than anyone else.
When he finally lost his patience and went to Fengcheng again, Song Baohe was completely dumbfounded.
This person...why did he just leave?
…………
The winter in Meng Province seems to be even colder than Fengcheng, with strong winds and sand blowing in our faces.
After getting out of the car, Song Rui went to the mall to buy some nice clothes for herself and Nan Nan so that they would look more decent.
After thinking about it, she went to the black market and bought a pair of fake gold bracelets, and also bought a dagger and put it in her arms.
People always say that courtesy comes before force.
But her gift was fake, but her soldiers were definitely real.
After Song Rui wrapped herself and Nan Nan tightly with scarves, she took a bus and went to the address.
Walking all the way from the city to the endless grassland, the closer Song Rui got to the destination, the calmer she became.
She was a young woman with a child, and when she asked for news, everyone thought she was seeking refuge with a relative and were not on high alert.
Along the way, Song Rui found out a lot of information from the bus.
The address my sister sent me the letter from was a grassland with only a few families living there.
When asked if there were any brides who had married from Fengcheng, the people on the bus didn't know.
After getting off the bus, Song Rui held Nan Nan in her arms and walked deep into the grassland, taking one step forward and one step back.
By this time it was getting dark.
When Song Rui saw the lights on ahead, her heart began beating like thunder, but her steps became more powerful.
The first family I saw was a father and son.
Song Rui said she was there to collect leather and was invited into the house.
This place is in a remote location and electricity was only connected two years ago.
The light in the room flickered, and the father and son saw her appearance clearly and began to doubt what she said.
This is clearly a delicate and tender young wife, how could she be a skin-picker?
Song Rui had already prepared a speech before she came.
He calmly gathered around the stove, warming Nan Nan by the fire, and said, "Brother, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. I came here with my husband. He received a batch of good leather and has already taken it back to Heilongjiang Province. He will come back in a few days to take the second batch. He also thought it was too troublesome to take us back and forth, so he just left us here."
"I don't want to stay here anyway, so I might as well go out and look for some good leather. I didn't expect your area is so big. It's dark by the time I get here from the city."
"Heilongjiang Province? That's a long way away."
The girl's father was a tall man in his thirties with a full beard, and he spoke Chinese well.
Seeing Song Rui was a little surprised, he said: "I am also Han Chinese. Most people in our area are Han Chinese. You just said you are from Heilongjiang Province? Why did you come all the way here to collect skins?"
Song Rui deliberately acted smart and said with a smile: "Why else? To make money! The leather here is good. We can take it back and process it into a very good wool coat. Then we can sell it to the Soviet Union and make money."
Song Rui told a story half true and half false, which dispelled the suspicions of the father and daughter.
Judging from the way she and her two children are dressed, it’s obvious that they are not short of money.
I guess she's just a young wife who wants to show off in front of her man.
Song Rui had just asked people on the bus about the price of leather this year.
She was afraid of arousing suspicion, so she didn't say more and instead lowered the price.
The tall man really didn't doubt it anymore, but he was a little dissatisfied with the price.
The two bargained for a while, and finally Song Rui suggested taking a look at the leather first.
In the warehouse, Song Rui looked at the pile of sheepskins and said with disdain: "Brother, this is too little, not even enough for half a truck. Are there any other families nearby? If I want to buy them, I will definitely buy more, otherwise my wife will definitely say that I am incompetent and I am messing around."
The tall man thought for a moment and said, "Yes, I do, but I have no say in whether I am willing to sell it to you or not."
Song Rui concealed her original emotion and smiled indifferently, "Brother, what you said is true. Who doesn't want money? Everyone has a grudge against money. But don't worry, I will definitely give you the highest price."
The tall man was pleased with her progress and offered to take her to other people's homes.
Song Rui said casually: "Brother, be a good person and see if there is a hostess in your neighborhood and send me to that house. It will be convenient for me to stay overnight."
The man also thought so.
It’s so late and there are no buses, so we must stay overnight.
For families like theirs where there are no women, if they really stay overnight and wait for the men to come back, wouldn't they burn the house down?
"Okay, I'll take you there right away."
The man was walking in front with a flashlight, and Song Rui was walking behind him.
The pasture is so large that it takes more than ten minutes to walk from house to house.
Song Rui lowered her head, but she could only think about a place like this. Would it be possible that her crying could not be heard by a third person?
As we walked, the man in front suddenly turned his head.
Song Rui was startled and took two steps back defensively.
The man smiled innocently and said, "Don't be afraid, sister. I just want to ask you if there is anyone in your family who wants to marry into our family. As you can see, we are also in need of a mistress."
Song Rui's heartbeat gradually slowed down, and she said, "Brother, this is not easy to find. It's really far away."
"What's so far away? I can give more betrothal gifts. The daughter-in-law of the family I want to take you to is from Fengcheng. She has been married here for more than three years. She came from far away and is very honest. You can't run away even if you want to. She lives a peaceful life. It's a pity that there has been no movement in your belly."
Song Rui tripped and almost fell. Her heartbeat, which had just calmed down, started beating violently again.
She looked up at the back of the person in front of her and felt that he was ugly and terrifying.
But she was also happy.
She was happy that she finally found Song Hua's exact location.
I was also happy that Song Hua did not give birth to any children.
There is no involvement and the divorce is neat and easy.
