Chapter 433 Did I ask him to cheat?
Song Yuntang looked a little reluctant.
"It will take at least ten days to get from here to Jing County, right? Plus, the child might take longer on the road. Madam, it will probably take half a month for you to get to Jing County. You must be careful on the road."
Although Yao was thirteen years older than her, she did not have the unattainable feeling that ordinary ladies had.
After meeting her a few times, I felt that it was rare to meet someone so compatible with me.
Yao held her hand.
"We will be careful. As for you, if your husband is on the list this time, you will probably have to go to the capital. He is not with you. If you have any difficult problems, go to the provincial capital to seek help from my brother. I have already informed my brother and his wife."
Song Yuntang smiled.
"Thank you." She took out several bottles of pills she had prepared when she arrived from her arms. "The journey to Jing County is long, so Madam, please carry these commonly used medicines with you just in case. Remember to write me a letter to let me know you are safe when you arrive."
Yao's eyes were red.
"Yes, I will certainly write to you."
She winked at Bao Sheng who was standing beside her.
Baosheng was seen carrying a box out of the house.
Yao opened the box and said, "You said before that you wanted a deck of mahjong cards. I asked a craftsman to make this one for you. I'm taking this opportunity to give it to you."
Song Yuntang reached out and took it.
"When I have the chance to go to Jing County, I will definitely invite Madam to play mahjong again."
Yao smiled.
"Okay, I'll be there whenever you call."
The two chatted for a while before Song Yuntang left Yao's place.
When leaving Zhu's Mansion, Xu Qingye just drove the carriage to the gate of Zhu's Mansion.
"Where did you go?"
Xu Qingye took her hand and helped her into the carriage.
"I went to the teacher and told him that I decided to go to the capital."
Thinking of the impending separation, Song Yuntang put away his smile.
"If you leave now, we won't see each other again until next May."
As she spoke, she got into the carriage.
After Xu Qingye entered the car, he reached out and held her in his arms.
"If everything goes well, the earliest will be next May." He turned his head to look at her, "How about Tang'er reconsider and go to the capital with me?"
Song Yuntang thought about it and shook his head.
"I haven't settled everything here yet. Today I told Nian'er that I want her to make decisions for me regarding the farm and business in the future. When the time comes, I'll let Guiping accompany you to the capital to take care of your daily life. He has been in the clinic for almost ten months and knows a little about medicine. I'll feel at ease having him with you."
Guiping was a servant who was bought last year and employed in the clinic.
The indenture contract was in her hand, so she could use it with confidence.
…
As soon as the carriage arrived at the gate of the courtyard, Lin Zhaozhao rushed over from not far away.
When she saw Xu Qingye's stern expression again, she suddenly stopped in her tracks out of guilt.
"Song Yuntang, I have something to tell you."
Song Yuntang knew very well why she came. Xu Qingye would be leaving for the capital in less than a month, and she didn't want to waste her time on Lin Zhaozhao.
"I have nothing to say to you."
When Lin Zhaozhao saw her walking towards the yard, she became anxious and asked directly.
"Did you report my husband's investigation?"
Song Yuntang paused and looked in the direction of Xu Qingye.
"Go inside first, I'll be right there."
Xu Qingye nodded slightly, winked in Xia Ning's direction, and went into the house first.
Seeing Xu Qingye protecting Song Yuntang like this, Lin Zhaozhao felt very sad.
They are both scholars, so why is Xu Qingye so good to Song Yuntang? He Yuanfei is thirteen years older than her and is remarried, so why can't he be nicer to her?
She is the daughter of a wealthy family.
Song Yuntang was just a peasant from a farming family.
Song Yuntang turned around and looked at her calmly, "Could it be that the person who was shackled and punished for cheating in the autumn exam is He Yuanfei?"
There was hatred in Lin Zhaozhao's eyes, but she didn't dare to act recklessly because she thought Xu Qingye was in the yard.
"Don't pretend here. I can't think of anyone other than you who has a grudge against us. Why do you always target us? What good will it do you to report him? Just to suppress me? Song Yuntang, I don't owe you anything!"
This autumn examination made He Yuanfei lose all his dignity and face.
After he returned, he started drinking and beating people when he was drunk. He not only beat her, but also the three children born to his ex-wife.
He also told her that his life was ruined anyway, and it didn't matter whether he climbed up the high branch of the Yuanwai Mansion or not.
She ran to the Lin residence to complain to her parents.
My father actually said that He Yuanfei had chosen this marriage herself, and now that she is married, there is no reason for a daughter of the Lin family to divorce, and there is no precedent for this.
She was also asked to serve her mother-in-law and husband diligently in the future, and to let He Yuanfei cheer up and continue to take the imperial examinations after fifteen years, or go into business.
Fifteen years, not fifteen days.
How many fifteen years can she have in her life?
She originally thought that He Yuanfei would be able to pass the imperial examination this time, and she would be able to become a juren's wife, but who knew that the result would be like this?
Lin Hongshen's words at that time made her feel suffocated and desperate.
But her mother's family didn't support her, and she had no better choice now. She could only stay in the He family for the time being.
Song Yuntang just thought what she said was funny.
"I'm targeting you? Did I ask him to cheat? As for whether you owe me anything, I think you should know better than anyone what happened with Huang Heyu before. Don't think I don't know. To put it bluntly, I don't owe you anything, but you owe me your life."
The original owner died because she didn't want to become Huang Heyu's concubine, and Huang Heyu was instigated by Lin Zhaozhao. She was not unrelated to the original owner's death.
Lin Zhaozhao avoided the important issue.
"But he obviously did it very covertly. If no one hadn't reported it, the examiner wouldn't have found out at all!"
Song Yuntang crossed his arms across his chest.
"Cheating is cheating. This behavior is unacceptable. Not to mention that I don't know who the reporter is. If I knew, I would applaud him. But you actually came to me to accuse me. You are so shameless!"
If they hadn't provoked her, Lin Zhaozhao could have found a good family with the help of the Lin family.
You can't blame others for playing a good hand of cards badly.
She can only blame herself for being stupid!
"you!"
For a moment, Lin Zhaozhao felt the blood rushing up.
She raised her hand and was about to touch Song Yuntang's face, but saw Xia Ning, who had been prepared, move.
He threw a punch, as if worried that Lin Zhaozhao might kill someone, so when he got close to her, his fist turned into a palm, knocking her to the ground, making her lie motionless for a long time.
After a long time, Song Yuntang saw the person on the ground move, a sneer appeared on the corner of his lips, he turned and walked into the yard, asked Xia Ning to close the gate, and no longer paid attention to Lin Zhaozhao.
Lin Zhaozhao on the ground moved a little, then struggled to get up.
She glanced at the tightly closed gate in front of her and pounded the ground in anger.
"Song Yuntang, you deserve to die! One day, I will kill you!"
