Chapter 12 I Can Cure Your Disease
When Zhao Qiao'e heard that they were going to look for someone from far away, she burst into tears with heartache.
"Tang'er has only been back to the Song family for three years. If she marries far away, it will be difficult to see her in the future."
Wang Hongying sighed, "There's nothing we can do about it. If Huang Heyu succeeds and takes Tang'er as his concubine, I don't know how much suffering she will have to endure in the future."
She gave birth to four boys and no daughters in her life. Among her nieces, she used to like the well-behaved and sensible Lin Zhaozhao, and now she also likes Song Yuntang, who looks like a porcelain doll. The only thing she doesn't like is Song Zhimei, who has a personality like Ma Zhaolan. She thinks that girl is full of schemes.
The more Wang Hongying thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt, so she nudged the man next to her with her crutch.
Song Jinzhu reacted and looked at Song Jinwen with a serious face.
"When the second brother returns, he must have a good talk with Ma. Don't just think about making money. In the end, it will only hurt your own family."
The boss had spoken, and Song Jinwen had no choice but to nod and agree.
The key point is that this matter was indeed brokered by his own wife. The better she spoke of the Huang family before, the worse the Huang family behaves now.
He couldn't refute it.
After Song Jinzhu finished his performance, he winked at his wife with a proud look on his face, as if he wanted her to praise him.
However, Wang Hongying just rolled her eyes at her and then looked at Song Jinbao and Zhao Qiao'e.
"Third sister-in-law, if there's nothing else, I'll go home first. I still have a lot of things to do at home."
"Okay, big brother and big sister, go get busy."
Song Jinzhu and Wang Hongying took their four sons home, Song Jinwen also left. After Song Jinbao and Song Jinsheng sent Zhao and Song Yuntang back home, they went back to work in the fields.
Song Yuntang spread the mugwort in the yard to dry, and then took some boiled water from the jar on the stove to clean the dirt around the wound on his hand.
Liu Xiangyun, who was sitting at the door doing needlework, glanced in her direction from time to time.
"Tang'er, you'd better not do this kind of work in the future. You are really not suitable for it."
Song Yuntang looked up at her, then lowered his head to clean the dirt off his hands.
"I'm not suitable, but you are?"
Liu Xiangyun was not angry either. She held up the small clothes she had just made and compared them with a gentle expression.
"Once I feel better, I can go up the mountain."
"Then don't do that." Song Yuntang used a clean towel to wipe the water off his hands. "Then people will think we are abusing a pregnant woman."
After saying that, he went back into the house.
Liu Xiangyun watched Song Yuntang go back into the house without saying much. Through what happened in the past few days, she had come to realize that although this sister-in-law had a cold temper, she was definitely not a bad person. She was the type who appeared cold on the outside but had a warm heart on the inside.
She went back to the house, found a piece of thicker cloth, cut it according to her own palm, and sat back under the eaves to start sewing.
For lunch, we had brown rice porridge and some Amaranthus retroflexus that Song Yuntang had picked. After blanching them, they were stir-fried. They tasted pretty good despite being low in oil and salt.
Before Zhao had her meal, she had already placed the medicine Song Jinyuan had bought on the stove to simmer. By the time she finished her meal, the medicine was ready.
Liu knew that the medicine was expensive, so she didn't act pretentiously and drank it all without leaving a drop.
After drinking the warm medicine, I broke out in a sweat. I went back to the room, washed myself, and changed my clothes. I felt refreshed all over.
The sun was scorching at noon, and the father and his two sons from the Song family were not idle. They went out again after dinner.
Song Yuntang was not idle either. He went out and walked towards the private school according to his memory.
Since she left the house, many people along the way pointed at her.
"Mr. Huang made such a statement in our village today. I'm afraid the girl from Old Third Song's family will have no choice but to marry him."
"Who said it wasn't? This morning, Young Master Huang blocked someone in the mountains, and then he spread the word that Song Yuntang was his man. It's possible that something happened between the two of them."
"Tell me, after so many things happened, how come she is still like nothing happened? Doesn't she always act like a Miss Lin? If an ordinary girl encounters something like this, she wouldn't be as careless as her, right?"
"Who knows what she's thinking? But I think that with her personality of being afraid of hard work, she's really not suitable to be kept in a farmer's family. It would be a good idea for her to be Mr. Huang's concubine."
"That's right. If you marry into a farmer's family, you will definitely cause trouble for them."
…
Listening to the whispers around him, Song Yuntang frowned slightly, but he ignored them.
There is a small courtyard behind the private school, which is Mr. Xu's usual residence. Song Yuntang knocked on the door without hesitation.
After one or two coughs were heard in the yard, Xu Qingye personally opened the door for Song Yuntang.
When he saw the person coming, he was stunned at first, then he glanced at the villagers who were peeking around, with a slightly distant look on his face.
"Why did Miss Song come to my place?"
Song Yuntang nodded, "Thank you for your help today, sir."
"It's just a small favor, not worth mentioning. I live alone, so it's inconvenient for me to invite you to sit in the yard. If you have nothing else, please go back." As he said this, he was about to close the gate.
The next moment, a white and tender hand pressed against the gate. Song Yuntang looked at him and said, "Mr. Xu, I want to discuss a deal with you."
Xu Qingye was stunned for a moment, "Young lady, please tell me more."
Song Yuntang said in a very serious tone, "I can cure Mr. Xu's illness."
