Chapter 574 There is no good thing in this world without reason
Seeing Jinshu distracted repeatedly, Song Yuntang felt that something was wrong with her and asked her.
"Jinshu, what's wrong with you?"
Jinshu hesitated for a moment.
"Madam, may I ask you a question?"
Song Yuntang nodded.
"you say."
"If a man is willing to give all his money to another woman for free, what does it mean?"
Song Yuntang looked at her.
"If there is no blood relationship, it is probably because of liking."
Jinshu thought about it and shook his head.
"No." After a pause, he added, "He said it was given as makeup."
Hearing this, Song Yuntang looked puzzled.
"Did anyone give you money?"
Jinshu quickly denied it.
"No, no, that's just what I asked."
Song Yuntang has only had Xu Qingye as a man in her past and present life, and there has never been any complicated things between her and Xu Qingye, so she really doesn't understand the reason.
She glanced at Xu Qingye who was playing Go with Hao Ting, then looked at Jinshu again.
"As for what that man was thinking, it's really hard for me to guess, but I have a story here that I might be able to tell you. After you listen to it, you can make your own judgment."
When Jinshu heard that there was a story to listen to, she nodded quickly.
"Madam, please speak. I am all ears."
Song Yuntang smiled and said, "Before I got married, my family was not well off. I had a conflict with my parents and moved out to live alone."
Song Yuntang never talked about this experience.
Jinshu was a little surprised, but also admired her courage.
This is just the case, madam. If an ordinary woman moved out of her parents' home and lived alone, she would be drowned in spit.
Song Yuntang continued, "I didn't have much money at that time, and I had the intention of getting engaged to my husband, but I hadn't made a decision yet. The day after he accompanied me to move, he gave me thirty taels of silver. I also used his money to start my business."
Jinshu listened with great interest.
"He gave Madam so much money before they even got engaged? Was the son-in-law's family very rich at that time? How long has he known Madam? Isn't he afraid that Madam will run away with the money?"
Thirty taels of silver may be just a drop in the bucket for the Xu family today.
But for farmers, it is a huge sum of money.
It can provide food and drink for a family for more than ten years, or even twenty years.
The son-in-law must have liked the lady very much at that time, otherwise why would he give her so much silver?
Song Yuntang seemed to realize this as well.
"He was still a teacher at a private school at the time, and his family was engaged in farming. Compared with ordinary farmers, his conditions were quite good. Even so, thirty taels was not a small amount, but he was worried that I didn't have enough money and that I would suffer, so he gave it to me directly."
She looked at Jinshu.
"There is no good thing in this world without a reason. Have you ever seen a stranger suddenly give you money? If a man is willing to give his money to a woman, there must be a reason for it. Think about it carefully."
After Song Yuntang finished speaking, he left Jinshu in deep thought and walked towards Xu Qingye and Hao Ting.
"Who's winning?"
Xu Qingye looked up at her, then put down the black piece in his hand with a gentle look.
"There's no winning or losing, just playing with Hao Ting."
Song Yuntang touched Hao Ting's head.
"You must learn from your father. Your father is really good at playing Go."
Hao Ting had an expression of admiration on his face.
"Really?"
Song Yuntang nodded, "Of course it's true, mother never lies."
Looking at the mother and son, Xu Qingye's lips curled up, and he cherished this hard-earned warmth even more.
…
At night, Song Yuntang was worried that he would touch Xu Qingye's injured arm, and in order to take care of him more conveniently, he let him sleep on the inside and he slept on the outside.
In the bed, she hugged the man's right arm.
"Xu Qingye, have you been attracted to me before we got married?"
Xu Qingye turned his head and glanced at her.
"How did you know?"
Song Yuntang leaned lightly on his shoulder.
"Jinshu asked me today why a man would be willing to give all his money to another woman. I thought of the time when you gave me thirty taels of silver. For us at that time, thirty taels was definitely a huge sum of money."
"We weren't engaged at the time, so you couldn't just give it to me without any reason, right?"
The man smiled dotingly.
"It's not easy to take so long to react."
Song Yuntang glanced at him.
"From the look in your eyes at that time, you seemed so pious that you wanted to become a monk. Who would dare to think in that direction? Besides, I have never encountered such a thing."
It is said that it is easy for a girl to pursue a boy.
It was she who proposed the engagement. Although at the time, she was more grateful to him and felt that he was reliable and his appearance and temperament also played a certain role, it was also the case that she was pursuing him.
But after he confirmed that he wanted to get engaged to him, he never hesitated and always tried his best to push forward every process.
Thinking of this, my heart felt like a honey pot had been overturned.
So sweet.
Then his eyes revealed cunningness.
"The next time someone treats me like this, I'll know."
When the man heard her words, he raised his eyebrows and tilted his head to remind her.
"You're married."
Song Yuntang smiled and nodded, "I know."
In case she didn't understand what he meant, he spoke again, "Tang'er is already my wife, so you can no longer accept other people's kindness. You can tell me what you want. As long as I have it, it's all yours."
He seldom says sweet words.
Song Yuntang couldn't bear to hear him lowering his posture at this moment for fear that she would change her mind.
"If you take it so seriously, I won't dare to joke with you anymore."
…
After Jinshu talked with Song Yuntang, he began to think about Fengshi’s intentions.
She did not open the things Fengshi gave her. She was in a hurry to go to the front yard to serve her ladyship, and Fengshi had disappeared, so she did not have time to return the things to him.
If it was true as Fengshi said, and all his valuables were inside, she would definitely not accept it.
She tossed and turned in bed, thinking.
Could it be that Fengshi is interested in her?
Then why didn't he just ask his wife to marry him, but instead wanted to give her some dowry?
If she adds more makeup, won’t she just marry someone else?
Is she overthinking?
As for her own feelings, she had never faced them before, but now that she thought about it carefully, she didn't dislike Fengshi.
His actions today moved her heart even more.
She didn't see Fengshi on the second and third days.
When asked about Qin Ju, Ren Dong and Yuan Zhi, they said that there had been unrest in the capital recently and their mistress had assigned them work outside and asked them to go out of the house to work.
Finally, the day of Qin Ju and Lan Xin's wedding arrived.
Fengshi is finally back.
The wedding was a simple one. After Qin Ju and Lan Xin paid homage to heaven and earth, Song Yuntang asked the cook to prepare several tables in advance. After the family had a lively meal in the yard, they sent the bride and groom to a room specially decorated for them.
After the excitement died down, Jinshu took the opportunity to take the cloth bag and wanted to return it to Fengshi.
"Brother Fengshi, please follow me."
