Chapter 108 Going to Banyan Village
"I saw Lin Zhaozhao using it. I got it from her." Jiang Surao looked at her. "Since your relationship is special, I'll give you a chance to explain. I hope you won't let me down."
"Since Miss Jiang knows that we have a special relationship, she should know that I am the last person who wants to see this happen." Song Yuntang said confidently, "And I can conclude that this handkerchief was not made by the same person."
Jiang Surao crossed her arms and asked, "Where's the evidence?"
Song Yuntang shook the handkerchief in his hand.
"I think Miss Jiang has used this handkerchief for a while. Can I take it off?"
Jiang Su Rao didn't care, "Tear it down, I still have it anyway."
Song Yuntang took out a pair of small scissors from his medicine box and untwisted the stitches on the two handkerchiefs where the kittens were embroidered, revealing the embroidered cloth inside.
"Ms. Jiang, please look. I mentioned this to my mother at the time. I was afraid that others would imitate me and cause unnecessary misunderstandings, so I asked her to embroider the word 'Rao' on the kitten's belly, but not on the other handkerchief."
Jiang Surao compared the two handkerchiefs.
"It is indeed thoughtful, but this does not mean that the handkerchiefs were not embroidered by the same person. I also asked my maid to check the cloth shop where you sold the handkerchiefs before. They have handkerchiefs with this pattern for sale. Fortunately, there are not many of them. Because the fabric and embroidery are too poor, and they are not as good-looking as mine, not many people buy them."
Forget about the cloth shops, after all, they are not presentable enough.
The pattern on the handkerchief in Lin Zhaozhao's hand was almost exactly the same as hers. The key point was that she had obtained a total of twenty handkerchiefs so far and had not lost any of them.
But judging from Song Yuntang's reaction, this kind of thing is indeed not something she would do.
Song Yuntang was stunned.
"There are cloth shops too?"
Jiang Surao glanced at her and said, "If you don't believe me, go and see for yourself."
Song Yuntang looked at her sincerely.
"Since Miss Jiang said yes, it must not be groundless. I am very grateful that Miss Jiang did not convict me directly, but gave me a chance to explain first. I will find out the cause and effect right now, and I will definitely give Miss Jiang a satisfactory answer."
Seeing her serious expression, Jiang Surao didn't make things difficult for her anymore.
"I await your reply."
After saying this, he turned around and left with his maid.
Song Yuntang watched Jiang Surao leave, her expression becoming stern. After she left the Jiang Mansion with her suitcase on her back, she did not go home directly, but went to Chen's Cloth Shop first.
There were indeed three handkerchiefs with kitten patterns hanging on the shelf of Chen’s Cloth Shop, but because the embroidery and the fabric were average, the price was not high, only twelve cents each.
Song Yuntang looked at the shopkeeper.
"Shopkeeper, I want all three of these handkerchiefs. Can you give me a discount?"
The shopkeeper looked embarrassed.
"Girl, twelve cents, no less."
"I'll take all three pieces for thirty cents. If it doesn't work out, forget it." She said, and made a gesture to leave.
The shopkeeper saw this and thought that these handkerchiefs had been hanging here for many days and no one was willing to buy them, so he hurriedly pulled Song Yuntang back.
"Okay, okay, open the shop, and give the girl thirty cents."
Song Yuntang counted out thirty copper coins and gave them to the shopkeeper, then left with the three handkerchiefs.
She first took a detour to the market and bought two large meat buns, and then headed towards the southern suburbs.
Unable to bear the hunger, Song Jinsheng had already drunk the porridge and eaten the eggs, and was now washing bamboo pots at home.
Three hundred bamboo jars were piled up into a small hill in front of him.
"Tang'er is back."
Song Yuntang hummed and handed him the meat bun he had just bought in a relatively calm manner.
"Brother, eat the buns first, and we'll get back to work later."
Song Jinsheng took it and said, "Tang'er, let's share it."
Song Yuntang had already gone into the house with the medicine box on his back. "I'm not hungry right now, so you can eat by yourself, brother. I'll be back soon after I put the medicine box away and will probably be back around noon."
"Do you want me to accompany you?" Song Jinsheng asked.
"No need." Song Yuntang refused without thinking.
If I'm not mistaken, the three handkerchiefs I just bought should have been embroidered by Liu.
Jiang Surao only interacted with rich ladies. Even if they had seen her handkerchiefs, no one would embroider them for her to sell. She could only think of Liu Xiangyun, who learned needlework from Zhao Qiao'e, as long as she knew the pattern and could embroider a rough outline and sell it in a shop.
But when she told Zhao that this pattern could not be embroidered for a second person, Liu Xiangyun was also at home.
She really didn't understand why she did this, and she didn't know whether Zhao knew about it.
She had to go to Rongshu Village to get to the bottom of this matter.
As for Song Jinsheng, as the only brother in the Song family who has a good relationship with her, she doesn't want him to be caught in the middle.
Seeing Song Yuntang hurriedly return to the house and hurriedly come out, Song Jinsheng bit the bun in his hand, not knowing why.
"Be careful when you go out."
"knew."
Song Yuntang waved his hand and walked out of the courtyard.
The sun was already quite dazzling at this moment. Song Yuntang wore a bamboo hat and walked in a hurry.
After going to Rongshu Village to resolve this matter, she still had to go to the dental clinic to find a house suitable for use as a factory.
The journey was relatively peaceful and we didn't encounter any evil spirits.
After being away for more than ten days, when Song Yuntang saw the familiar banyan tree again, he felt that everything had changed.
In the morning, there were still some people moving around outside. When the villagers saw her, they gathered in groups of three or four and whispered to each other, all they talked about was her unorthodox words.
"Tang'er is back!"
It was Zhao Qiao'e who opened the door for Song Yuntang. When she saw Song Yuntang, her eyes were full of surprise, but more of joy.
The mother and daughter had a conflict not long ago. She thought that Song Yuntang came today because he realized his mistake and came to apologize to her. When he saw her, she was still thinking about how to talk to her in a nice way.
Hearing the noise outside, Zhuzi and Zhuanzi immediately left the house.
"elder sister."
Although they had not had a very good impression of this sister before, she did change a lot during that period of time. Not only did she no longer treat them coldly, she also gave them food and bought them expensive paper.
I have to say that the atmosphere at home was indeed very relaxed during that period.
Everyone has been cautious since she left.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that my mother had been in a bad mood, and everyone was afraid of bringing bad luck to her.
Liu Xiangyun also came out of the house upon hearing the noise.
"Is Tang'er coming back to live here?"
Song Yuntang ignored everyone. She came into the main room, took off her bamboo hat, took out three handkerchiefs from her sleeves and slapped them on the table.
"What's going on?"
Zhao Qiao'e picked up one of the handkerchiefs, and when she saw the embroidery on it, her heart skipped a beat.
"This is……"
"I bought this at Chen's Cloth Shop." For a matter of principle, Song Yuntang would not consider whether Liu Xiangyun was pregnant or not. She looked at Liu and said, "This embroidery should not be done by your mother, right?"
