Chapter 188 It's normal to feel powerless
Xu Qingye always gets up early.
When he woke up, he subconsciously looked towards the inside of the bed.
Song Yuntang had his eyes closed, lying quietly facing him, as obedient as a pure white porcelain doll.
He reached out his hand, wanting to smooth the hair off her cheek, but was afraid of waking her up.
Finally, he had to withdraw his hand, got up quietly and left the house.
As soon as he came out, a hand grabbed his arm and dragged him into the main room.
Jiang lowered her voice and asked, "Qingye, did you and Tang'er... do anything last night?"
Xu Qingye raised his hand to his nose and coughed awkwardly.
"What does mother want to say?"
Jiang said, "Mother wants to tell you that it is normal for you to feel powerless after recovering from a serious illness, but don't be discouraged. Tang'er is a doctor after all. She cured your serious illness before, so this minor problem will definitely be no problem. Now that you are married, you can discuss some things with her, understand?"
Xu Qingye looked at her strangely.
"How did mother know?"
"Last night I..."
Jiang was about to tell others about the eavesdropping, but she stopped herself in time.
Xu Qingye had already guessed it, but still asked.
"What happened last night?"
Jiang pointed to the kitchen and said guiltily, "When I woke up this morning, I found that you didn't use water last night, so I guessed."
"Don't worry, we are fine."
After Xu Qingye finished speaking, he left the main room with a slightly embarrassed look on his face.
Looking at the back of her eldest son, Jiang couldn't help but shook her head, "Men are all about face."
After breakfast, Song Yuntang was about to go out.
"Dad, Mom, the farm is busy right now, and the wine shop is about to open. I have to go there today. You don't have to wait for me to eat at noon."
Jiang said hurriedly, "Okay, let Qingye go with you."
"He still has to read. Don't delay him."
"That won't work. There's still a long mountain road leading out of Lushan Village. It's better to be safe than sorry." Jiang looked at Xu Qingye, "Qingye, you go with Tang'er."
Xu Qingye nodded and stood up.
"Let's go. It doesn't take a few days to read."
The two set out from Lushan Village.
"Are you going to the county town as soon as September comes?" Song Yuntang looked at him and asked.
Xu Qingye hummed, "I'll go on the last day of this month, and I'll have to find a courtyard to live in. The teacher invited me to live in his house before, but I thought he has a large family and might cause unnecessary misunderstandings, so it's better to keep some distance."
"It's definitely better to find a yard to live in by yourself than to live under someone else's roof." Song Yuntang looked at him with a smile, "In fact, I went to the county town again a few days ago and stayed there for a night. At that time, I thought, it would be great if I could buy a yard like that. Then when you go there to study, you can live in your own home and don't have to rent a yard."
Looking at her curved eyebrows and eyes, Xu Qingye also raised the corners of his lips.
"What are you going to do in the county town?"
"Lin Jingyao offered me two hundred taels and wanted me to go to the county government office for mediation. But Lin Zhaozhao didn't live up to her expectations and was not only beaten with a stick, but also had to stay in jail for another month."
Whenever she thought about it, she wanted to laugh.
Lin Zhaozhao deserved it for not only losing the rice but also trying to steal the chicken.
"After that, I helped Master Zhu with a little bit of work, so I stayed at Li's house for one night."
Xu Qingye was a little worried. "Why didn't you tell me when Lin Jingyao came to see you? It would be safer if I went with you."
"I thought you would study in the future, so I couldn't go to you for everything." Song Yuntang raised his hands. "Before I left, I almost dipped these hands in poison. If anyone dares to do anything to me, I will poison him to death first."
After hearing her words, Xu Qingye did not feel relieved that she could find a way to protect himself.
"If something like this happens again in the future, don't be stubborn. As your husband, I also need some room for maneuver. If you don't ask me for help, what difference does it make whether I'm here or not?"
Song Yuntang nodded.
"I understand. If there is anything else in the future, I will discuss it with you."
…
When we arrived at Zhuangzi, it was already past noon.
"The girl and her husband are back!"
When Miao and Tao Xia saw her, they hurried out to greet her.
Chen went to the tavern to sell sour plum soup early in the morning, while Fubao and Fang Xiaobao were playing in the yard.
"Everything was okay at the farm yesterday?" Song Yuntang asked.
Miao smiled and said, "We are watching over it, everything is fine."
Song Yuntang nodded, "That's good. I'm going to the woodshed to talk to Uncle Qiao about something. You guys keep busy while I come over. Sister Xia, come with me to town. The wine shop over there will be open in a few days, and there are many things that need to be sorted out."
Tao Xia responded, "Oh, I understand."
Song Yuntang came to the wooden shed.
"Uncle Joe, is the granary finished?"
Qiao laughed and said, "It's already been built. The granary is quite big. After we stacked all the grains yesterday, we also made a bed for Tu Shi inside. He can sleep there now."
Tu Shi scratched his head and said with a chuckle, "Girl, I'd rather not live in the courtyard. It's also good to live in the granary. There are many women in the courtyard, and it's not as comfortable as living in the granary."
Qiao Er joked, "You're not afraid of being uncomfortable, you're afraid that the stutterer will run away, right?"
"Okay, then you can live in the granary first, and make arrangements after the new yard is built." She looked at Qiao Da, "Uncle Qiao, we still have to continue collecting grain this afternoon, and the bamboo cans cannot be left behind every day. If nothing unexpected happens, there may be an order tomorrow."
Qiao Da nodded, "Okay, I'll take it to heart."
Song Yuntang looked at Song Xiangming again, "Brother, my second brother came back from here yesterday. Is there anything wrong with his health?"
Song Xiangming shook his head.
"He's fine. If not for so many people persuading him, he would still want to help you with your work."
"I'm glad you're okay." Song Yuntang pointed to a piece of dry land not far from the wooden shed, "Tu Shi, go and turn that land over. I'm going to plant something there later."
Tu Shi quickly put down the work in his hands.
"Hey, I'll go right away."
Song Yuntang glanced at Xu Qingye not far away and led him towards the mountain spring.
"I was just trying it out, but I didn't expect the first batch of peppers to actually sprout. Now that the weather is cool, it's a good time to transplant them into the field so they can grow taller. If it gets colder, we'll have to build a greenhouse."
Xu Qingye guessed her plan.
"Planning to breed and plant in large quantities next year?"
Song Yuntang nodded, "If nothing unexpected happens, that's it."
She continued to climb up the mountain and came to the spring.
"You haven't been here before, have you?" Song Yuntang looked at him and asked, "Do you feel anything different standing here?"
Xu Qingye felt it carefully and said uncertainly, "It seems to be cooler than other places?"
"That's right." Song Yuntang pulled him down to squat, grabbed his hand, and touched the stone wall at the mouth of the spring, "Feel it again."
The two people's arms overlapped, and because Xu Qingye was leaning sideways, his tall body covered the girl's entire body.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Looking down at the girl in front of him, his originally calm heart suddenly began beating uncontrollably.
