Chapter 29 Just in Case
Song Jinsheng frowned tightly, looking at the faint red marks on Song Yuntang's arm, with heartache in his eyes.
"What's going on? Who pulled it?"
Song Yuntang put down his sleeves and said, "I had just come out of Baicaotang when I met Lin Zhaozhao's eldest brother."
Song Jinsheng's heart tightened.
"Why is it Lin Jingyao? That bastard didn't do anything excessive to you, did he?"
Lin Jingyao usually looks like a handsome young man, but he is actually a very shrewd person. Now at the age of 22, he has already become a juren and is considered a young and famous person in Cile Town.
Tang'er used to admire her eldest brother from the Lin family the most, so why did she meet him alone today?
Although he had doubts in his heart, he felt deep down that he should trust Song Yuntang since she was willing to share with him the story of her encounter with Lin Jingyao.
Song Yuntang shook his head. "No, he just asked me why I bullied Lin Zhaozhao."
"Bullshit, it was obviously Lin Zhaozhao..." Song Jinsheng was a little angry, but more disappointed with Lin Zhaozhao, "Why is Zhaozhao like this? She was the one who did the evil first, but she actually blamed you!"
Song Yuntang had long been accustomed to it.
"Isn't she always like this?"
Song Jinsheng sighed, "I'd better go with you when we go to town from now on, so that you won't be bullied. She, Lin Zhaozhao, has a brother, and so do you."
Song Yuntang did not object to Song Jinsheng's suggestion. "Brother, don't tell your family about this matter first, so that they won't think I'm slandering Lin Zhaozhao."
Song Jinsheng looked at her with some heartache.
Indeed, in recent years, the two families have been quite tolerant of Lin Zhaozhao, because she was born to enjoy a golden nest like the Lin family, but she had to suffer in Rongshu Village for thirteen years, and both families felt guilty about her.
However, people overlooked the gap that Tang'er faced when she returned to the Song family from the Lin family and changed from a spoiled rich lady to a country girl.
"good."
The sun was shining brightly at that time, and when the two returned home, the whole family was enjoying the cool air in their respective rooms.
When Zhao Qiao'e saw the courtyard door being pushed open, she hurriedly put down the sewing basket in her hand and went out to greet him.
"Tang'er is back."
Song Yuntang came to the main room and, under the gaze of the family, first untied a few fragrant oil-paper packages tied to the shoulder straps of the backpack.
"I bought these buns on the way back. They're still hot. Share them among you."
Excluding the one that she and Song Jinsheng shared, there were nine meat buns left.
Zhao Qiao'e only took out one and handed it to the pregnant Liu, "We have eaten at noon, and the rest will be saved for dinner. It's just enough for each of us."
The family naturally had no objection to her arrangement.
Liu is pregnant now, which is a period when she needs nutrition, so she should eat more.
Song Yuntang didn't say much. He took out the remaining one or two taels of silver, or sixty-eight coins, after paying for the soles, cloth, and needles and thread and handed it to Zhao.
Looking at the silver coin in her hand, Zhao didn't react for a long time.
"Why so much money?"
"I sold the handkerchief at Chen's Cloth Shop for 104 coins. Then I met a lady I knew and took an order for 30 handkerchiefs. I earned 1 tael and 2 coins." Song Yuntang took out the cloth and needlework from the backpack. "I was worried that we didn't have enough needlework at home, so I bought some more. The total cost of these needlework and shoe soles is 236 coins. Everything is here. You can calculate it yourself."
"Just make the calculation. Mother believes you." Zhao Qiao'e put the silver away and looked at her in confusion. "How did Tang'er sell it for only one tael and two qian of silver for only thirty handkerchiefs?"
This is much more expensive than what is sold in the cloth shop.
The handkerchief in the cloth shop is only eighteen cents a piece!
"I noticed it in the cloth shop. Your mother's embroidery is better than most of the handkerchiefs in the shop. Plus, the pattern is drawn by me, so I raised the price."
Song Yuntang took out the picture he had drawn in the tea shop from his arms and spread it out on the table.
"Just follow this pattern. The color transition of the cat's fur should be more natural, so use orange as the main color." After thinking for a while, she added, "I'll write another word later. Before you embroider the cat, add that word on the inside of the cat's abdomen. It's best if it can't be easily discovered."
Zhao Qiao'e was puzzled, "Why add another word?"
"Just in case, of course."
Zhao Qiao'e approved of Song Yuntang's approach, saying, "It's better to be cautious when custom-making things for young ladies from wealthy families."
The women in the big mansion are all ruthless and ruthless.
Song Yuntang raised the corners of his lips and said calmly, "I hope you don't think I'm scheming."
Zhao Qiao'e glanced at her unhappily, "You little girl! You are so thoughtful. Mother is so happy."
Song Yuntang took out three snacks that he had packed from the teahouse from the bottom of the backpack.
She handed Liu Xiangyun a portion of nuts and a piece of pastry.
The nuts can provide nutrition, the pastries can provide energy, and as for the remaining dried fruits, they are too high in sugar, so she kept them for herself.
"Lin Zhaozhao ate your snacks last time, and today she packed another portion for you from town."
If Jiang Surao hadn't treated her, she probably wouldn't have gone out of her way to buy it.
After all, cakes and other things are not cheap, and she doesn't have so much money on hand to spend.
Liu looked at the snacks in her hand and felt touched.
"Tang'er, this will cost a lot of money, right?"
Song Yuntang told the truth, "It was free. The lady who ordered the handkerchief treated us."
Liu's eyes were a little moist, and she smiled and said, "Thank you Tang'er."
Regardless of whether money was spent or not, in her opinion, this kind of thought is truly rare.
Song Yuntang took out the last thing from the backpack and shook his head, saying, "Forget about thanking me. If you weren't pregnant, I wouldn't bother with this."
Knowing that Song Yuntang was a person with a hard mouth but a soft heart, Liu did not take her words to heart and reached out to take the two pairs of shoe soles on the table.
"Mother, since you want to embroider the handkerchief, I'll make these two pairs of shoes."
Zhao Qiao'e did not object. "Okay, this handkerchief is a delicate work. I don't know how long it will take to finish making thirty of them. I'm afraid it will be too late."
Liu said hurriedly, "I can help you with the hems when I have time."
"Don't worry, I'll send ten every half a month. There's still enough time." Song Yuntang looked at the pillars and piles beside him, "Lend me your pen and ink so I can write a few words."
"good."
Knowing that Song Yuntang was going to do something serious, Zhuzi didn't delay and hurried to the room.
This sister seems to be really different recently. Not only has she become more hardworking, she also helps my mother to take on business and prepares food for my sister-in-law.
I won’t always fantasize about returning to the Lin family in town.
Song Yuntang traced the word "娆" (rao) on the edge of the drawing, cut out the blank paper around it, and handed the drawing to Zhao.
"Make one for me first."
After all, this transaction was handled by her and the fee was higher than that for ordinary handkerchiefs, so she naturally could not be careless.
People are not stupid. If they are not satisfied the first time, there will be no follow-up.
After finishing all this, Song Yuntang returned to his room. After being busy for such a long time, he was really tired and just wanted to lie down and have a rest.
