Chapter 27 What Should I Repent of?
Song Yuntang was stunned for a moment and turned around.
"What else?"
Mu Dong clasped his fists and said, "Miss, you have done this without expecting anything in return. I am grateful, but I still want to know where you live. I will definitely repay you when I have the chance in the future."
Not only did he want to know, but the people outside who were watching the fun also wanted to know.
We don’t know what will happen tomorrow. If one day I get sick and the doctor in town can’t cure me, maybe this girl can bring me a glimmer of hope.
Song Yuntang paused and looked at him, "You can find me in Rongshu Village."
Mu Dong was delighted.
"Thank you for telling me, young lady."
Song Yuntang picked up the backpack by the door and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
Shopkeeper Li hurried over to greet her and said, "Young lady, you have saved someone in front of my medicine shop. I am very grateful. If you don't mind, we may accept the herbs in your basket."
This saves her from having to go somewhere else.
Song Yuntang did not refuse and took out the herbs in the basket one by one. The herbs were all processed very well and were clean. They only needed to be chopped up before use.
"They are just some common herbs. Please take a look first, shopkeeper."
In the end, the purchase price of Song Yuntang's medicinal materials was calculated to be 197 wen, and Manager Li directly gave her the full amount of 200 wen.
Excluding what he spent today, he had four coins left in his hand. Song Yuntang felt helpless, as it was easier to spend money than to make money.
After saying goodbye to a few people, Song Yuntang left Baicaotang.
It was already the end of the Si hour, not yet time for lunch, and there was even longer time before the ox cart would set off.
Song Yuntang originally wanted to go to East Street to see if she could find any bargains, but after she took a few steps, someone suddenly grabbed her arm and pulled her to a place with few people.
She wanted to break free, but found that the other party was too strong and she couldn't break free at all.
“What are you doing!”
The man pushed her to the wall of an alley and looked at her sternly.
"Zhao Zhao was asked by your second brother to go to Rongshu Village to see if you were doing well. Why did you bully her?"
"I bullied her?" Song Yuntang angrily shook off Lin Jingyao's hand, the man the original owner had called big brother for thirteen years. "Anyway, in your eyes, I am an unforgivable person. Then I would like to trouble your family to stay away from me from now on, and don't jump out from time to time to seek a sense of existence."
Lin Jingyao looked at her with disappointment, "Why don't you repent?"
The eldest brother has always been handsome and gentle, and even though the original owner came to the town from time to time to pester him, she had never seen him speak so harshly.
Lin Zhaozhao's methods are really good.
It seems that the Lin family really needs to be moved away.
Song Yuntang looked a little cold, "What should I repent of?"
"you……"
The look on the face of this sister whom Lin Jingyao had loved for thirteen years made him feel unfamiliar, and he didn't know how to answer for a moment.
The next moment, there was a hint of bitterness in the smile on Song Yuntang's face.
“Yes, I should repent.”
After hearing this, Lin Jingyao's brows slowly relaxed, thinking that she had realized her mistake. However, Song Yuntang's next words made his heart tighten again.
"I have no blood relationship with the Lin family, but I have been trying to get your approval in the past few years. It is indeed my fault. I hope Mr. Lin will apologize to Mrs. Lin and Mr. Lin on my behalf. This kind of thing will never happen again in the future." She looked at him seriously, "I promise."
Lin Jingyao's throat slid, his brows slightly wrinkled, and he looked at the girl in front of him with puzzled eyes, as if he wanted to see through her.
I clearly just met him more than half a month ago. At that time, she was still following me and calling me "Big Brother" intimately. But now, the look she gave me was completely devoid of warmth, as cold as a stranger.
His attitude softened, "I didn't mean that."
"You don't mean that?" Song Yuntang sneered, as if the original owner's grievances were spreading in his heart. "You are really interesting. When I was sticking to you before, you avoided me like snakes and scorpions. Now I say that I have nothing to do with you anymore and that I don't mean that. What do you want?"
"That's because of Zhao Zhao that I returned to the Lin family..."
She suppressed the sadness in her heart and raised her hand to stop Lin Jingyao from speaking.
"Mr. Lin, you don't have to explain to me. The former Lin Yuntang is dead. My surname is Song now, and I have nothing to do with the Lin family. I have thought very clearly during this period of time. My relationship with the Lin family has been a mistake since sixteen years ago. Since I have enjoyed the Lin family's preferential treatment for thirteen years, I am willing to bear the consequences in the future."
"From now on, I will no longer go to the Lin family for any personal matters. I also hope that Lin Zhaozhao can completely draw a line between herself and Rongshu Village and stop doing things that would ruin her impression from time to time."
Lin Jingyao disagreed with her words, "You are forcing her. Zhao Zhao has lived in the Song family for thirteen years. Now that she has returned to the Lin family, she is still willing to go to the Song family. This just shows that she is a person who knows how to repay kindness and cherishes the old friendship. How can you lose your good impression?"
Song Yuntang was almost amused by his words.
"So Lin Zhaozhao went to the Song family just to reminisce about the old times, and I went to the Lin family to curry favor with them? You guys are too hypocritical!"
Lin Jingyao's eyes were slightly impatient, "I never said that, don't make up stories."
Song Yuntang was even more impatient than him.
"You don't want to see me, and I don't want to see you again. I have no objection to Lin Zhaozhao going to the Song family, but if she does something shameful behind the scenes again, I will not only beat her maid, I will beat her too!"
Lin Jingyao obviously didn't believe it, "What did Zhao Zhao do? You are jealous, so don't slander her behind her back."
Song Yuntang rolled his eyes up impatiently, without any desire to explain.
"Then just think that I am slandering her. As Young Master Lin sees it, I am a vicious, jealous, and sinister person. I really don't dare to stay with Young Master Lin for long. In order to avoid affecting Young Master Lin's reputation, I think it's better for me to leave early. Goodbye."
After saying that, in front of Lin Jingyao's slightly surprised eyes, Song Yuntang tightened the backpack on his shoulders and walked out of the alley without looking back.
After they walked a little further away, she rolled up her sleeves to look at her arms. There was an obvious red mark where Lin Jingyao had just pulled her, and it still hurt a little.
She couldn't help but spit in her heart.
"What bad luck!"
She had originally been thinking of taking a walk in East Street, but now she had lost all mood for that. Seeing that it was almost time for dinner, she went straight to the stall where she had eaten noodles with Song Jinsheng last time.
"Boss, give me a bowl of noodles."
The boss said in a high-pitched voice, "Okay, wait a moment, girl."
…
It was not until Song Yuntang walked a long way away that Lin Jingyao finally reacted and turned to look in the direction she left.
His brows were still furrowed, with a look of confusion in his eyes.
"Awang."
A young man walked in from the alley and bowed to Lin Jingyao.
"What do you want, young master?"
Lin Jingyao walked towards the alley entrance while instructing, "Go and investigate what happened to the Song family recently."
The boy nodded, "Yes."
After a pause, Lin Jingyao continued, "By the way, let's investigate what Zhao Zhao did when he went to the Song family a few days ago."
