Chapter 406: Ingestion of poisonous mushrooms
Before leaving, Song Yuntang heard a fierce quarrel next door and Tian Qiuyan's crying was also very loud.
But none of this has anything to do with her.
After leaving Rongshu Village, Xia Ning looked in the direction of the carriage.
"Master, in my opinion, your mother is very likely to give your sister-in-law an additional five taels of silver."
Song Yuntang's calm voice came from the car.
"I know."
Like her, the second brother has never been the one favored by the family.
Xia Ning, who had only met Zhao twice, could see what Zhao would do. She had been in contact with Zhao for such a long time, so of course she knew it.
However, she is now just a married girl from the Song family, and if Zhao really wants to give money to Liu, she can't do anything about it.
Nowadays, the outside world is in chaos and most of the shops in the town have their doors closed. You have to knock on the door to buy something. The shop owner will only let you in after seeing how you are dressed. It is really inconvenient.
"Xia Ning, go directly to Baicaotang. After you drop me off, go to the market to see if you can buy some meat. If you can, buy a dozen pounds and send them to Lushan Village. I can ask my father to give some to my uncle and grandparents."
Mrs. Hu is in poor health and is very frugal. It is not easy for her to go out at her old age.
If they didn't send meat, the two old people would not be willing to run to the town to buy meat.
Xia Ning nodded.
"yes."
…
The early morning sun shone into the room through the window, and Song Yuntang stretched lazily.
The new bed was so soft that she didn't want to get up.
There is one very good thing about Xia Ning. If there is nothing particularly urgent the next day, he will let her sleep until she wakes up naturally and will not wake her up early to get dressed and eat.
"Xianing, what time is it?"
Xia Ning's voice came from outside, "Master, it's already the end of Chenshi (around nine in the morning)."
Song Yuntang opened his eyes and raised his hand to block the strong light coming in from the window.
“It’s time to get up.”
After hearing this, Xia Ning hurriedly said, "I will ask Aunt Miao to prepare breakfast for the master, and also get a basin of water for the master to use."
"good."
Song Yuntang responded and sat up from the bed.
After getting dressed, Xia Ning came over with a basin of water, and with her came Song Jinyuan, who had a happy look on his face.
"Tang'er is up."
He was a little confused. Although Song Yuntang didn't do much work when she was at her mother's house, she always got up on time every day.
Why do you get up so late after getting married?
Then I thought about how Liu seemed to be feeling sleepy recently, could it be that Tang'er was also pregnant?
Counting the time, she has been married to Xu Qingye for quite a while, so even if she is pregnant, it is normal.
After all, his sister was a girl, so Song Jinyuan did not go into the house, but stood in the yard waiting for her.
Song Yuntang took a clean cotton cloth and a handkerchief and began to clean his teeth and face.
"Brother, did you come to see me because of my second brother's marriage?"
Song Jinyuan nodded.
"My parents discussed it yesterday. The market is not good this year. All the shops in town are closed. It is not easy to buy things. We want to wait until the market is better before going to the Mu family to set the wedding date."
After Song Yuntang washed his face, he put the towel on the shelf and asked, "Is it just because of the purchase?"
As she spoke, she sat down in front of the dressing table and began to wipe her face and comb her hair.
Outside the house, Song Jinyuan's voice came again.
"Chengzhi and Chengliang are studying in town, and the expenses are not small. My sister asked mother not to mistreat my second brother and his wife, and mother doesn't want the wedding to be too shabby. It would be best to delay it for a while."
Song Yuntang said as she combed her hair, "Since my parents have already discussed it, it doesn't matter if the wedding is a little later, but the date must be set earlier. My parents didn't show up for the engagement last year, and Aunt Cui asked me about it in a veiled way a few days ago. Don't let people think that my parents don't value Mu Qiu."
Logically speaking, there were three men working in the family, and she paid her second brother a high salary. Liu was reluctant to spend money on her little niece, and only the two younger brothers spent more on their studies. The family should still have some savings.
Now I'm crying poor here.
I'm afraid that in order to appease Liu, Zhao really gave her an additional five taels of silver.
Outside the house, Song Jinyuan nodded, "Okay, I'll tell my parents when I get home tonight and ask them to find someone to pick a good date and bring a gift to the south of the city to set the date for Jinsheng and my second brother's wife, so that the family can prepare in advance."
Song Yuntang hummed.
"Just do as Big Brother says."
"Okay, I have something else to do, so I'll go ahead and do it first. Sister, please take care of yourself." After saying this, Song Jinyuan turned around and left the yard.
After hearing his last words, Song Yuntang turned around and looked outside the house.
I vaguely felt that something was wrong.
.
Just after breakfast, Shunzi and Changgen came with two carriages of neem leaves, and Xu Wencheng came with them.
As soon as he arrived, he took Xia Ning to the foot of the mountain to practice kung fu.
Song Yuntang asked someone to prepare the millstone.
The calf that I bought together with the mule last year has been raised for ten months and is now able to start working.
Qiao harnessed the ox to the millstone and ground the leaves of the neem tree into a green juice.
While grinding, dilute it and spray it on the fields.
After spraying all the fields on the farm, there was some excess, so he notified the villagers who had rented fields nearby and asked them to bring their own tools to the farm to get the medicine and take it back to spray the fields.
The government’s notice regarding locusts had already been posted.
Those diligent families have already started actively dealing with locust eggs in the fields.
There are also some people who are lazy or don't believe in superstition and still sit at home chatting and waiting for the harvest.
…
After Xu Wencheng came, he pestered Xia Ning to practice martial arts for an hour every morning. The rest of the time he either worked with everyone on the farm or went into the mountains to do weight training. In the middle, he even went back to Lushan Village to bring home the juice of the neem tree.
He had his own things to do, and Song Yuntang didn't stop him and let him do it.
For five or six days in a row, Song Yuntang hardly saw anyone.
On the evening of the seventh day, Song Yuntang had just returned home from town when Song Jinyuan and Miao helped Xu Wencheng into the yard.
"Tang'er, your uncle seems drunk."
Song Yuntang looked up and saw Xu Wencheng's cheeks flushed. He put his hands on his head and smiled foolishly, "I am a mushroom, a red mushroom."
Although he looked drunk, there was no smell of alcohol on his body.
She walked forward and wanted to grab Xu Wencheng's arm to feel his pulse, but when she got close to him, she saw Xu Wencheng looking at her with a silly smile.
"Hehe, sister-in-law is also a mushroom, a beautiful flower mushroom."
Looking at his mental state, Song Yuntang raised his eyebrows.
"Open your mouth, mushroom, close your mouth, mushroom. You look like this now. Could it be that you accidentally ate poisonous mushrooms in the mountains?"
Xu Wencheng did not answer and continued to play his role of "Mushroom".
After taking his pulse, Song Yuntang looked at Song Jinyuan and Miao, "Brother and Aunt Miao, please send my second brother back to his room first. I'll go to the medicine box in the house to get the medicine."
The two men responded and helped Xu Wencheng to his room.
But when they reached the door of the house, Xu Wencheng grabbed the door frame and refused to enter the room, saying that he would die without mud in the room. After finally breaking free from the two men, he squatted on the grass and continued to be a "mushroom".
Xia Ning, who was leading the way, twitched his lips when he saw this.
