Chapter 575: Lack of Mind
Fengshi saw Jinshu walking towards the front yard and followed him in confusion.
As it was cold this day, everyone went back to their rooms after finishing their work at night. There was no one in the front yard. The fireplace in the main hall had been burning all day, so it was warm inside and it was the most appropriate place to talk.
After Jinshu entered the main hall, he stood by the door, looked back at Fengshi who had just opened the warm curtain and came in, and handed the thing in his hand towards him.
"Brother Fengshi, you should take this thing back. I can't take your things if I don't do anything for them."
Feng Shi looked at what she handed over and was stunned.
Obviously, she had not yet opened the cloth bag.
It contained the silver he had saved over the years. He had food and lodging in the mansion, and he didn't spend much money on a daily basis. Over the years, he had saved about 10 to 20 taels of silver.
"I give it to you voluntarily."
"I know you are willing, but even so, I can't accept it." She looked at Fengshi, "I am not related to Brother Fengshi. Brother Fengshi is already 21 years old this year. In another year or so, he will also have to get married. If you give it to me, where will the money come from to start a family in the future?"
Feng Shi scratched his head.
"Who would be willing to marry me in my situation?" He stuffed the thing in his hand back and said, "Take it. If you really find someone you like, you can live a good life with him in the future."
Ordinary people were unwilling to marry into slavery.
The maids in wealthy families all have very high standards.
In addition, he has no parents at home and can't provide any help at all. Under such conditions, it is very difficult for him to find someone to live a good life with.
He has an ordinary appearance and an ordinary personality, and he doesn't think anyone would be interested in him.
Jinshu suddenly understood what he was thinking.
It turned out that he was out of inferiority complex and was worried that the girl who followed him would be wronged in the future.
She looked at the thing in her hand and didn't rush to put it back.
"I am not the only maid in the mansion. Why didn't Brother Fengshi give the things to others but only to me?"
Feng Shi's eyes dodged and he raised his hand to touch his head.
"Didn't I tell you the other day that since we're close and you've helped me so much, I'll give it to you."
This guy is really stubborn.
Jinshu raised what he was holding.
"Even so, it's not reasonable to give it all to me, right?" She mustered up the courage to ask directly, "Are you interested in me?"
Having his feelings exposed, Feng Shi didn't dare to look in her direction. Under the dim light, his cheeks were burning and his whole body was as red as a cooked shrimp.
Looking at his helpless look yet unwilling to deny, Jinshu understood.
Put the silver back into his hand.
"Since you are interested in me, you should have asked Madam to arrange a marriage for you instead of giving me money privately. I will not agree to any of the steps that are missing, such as arranging a marriage, setting an auspicious date, and giving betrothal gifts."
After saying that, she ran past him and out of the main hall with a red face.
After living together in the mansion for several years, Feng Shi is a simple man with a mild temper and is hardworking. Life might be dull if she marries him, but it will not lack warmth in the subtle details.
Just like the son-in-law and his wife, it's a long-lasting relationship.
Fengshi stood there in a daze for a moment, then carefully thought about what Jinshu had just said, and grinned belatedly.
From what she said just now, it seems that she wants me to propose to the lady?
She excitedly stuffed the cloth bag into her arms, opened the warm curtain and ran to the backyard, her steps so brisk that they seemed to float.
…
The next day, Song Yuntang and Xu Qingye woke up together.
In the past, it was Jinshu who brought water into the house to serve in the morning, but today it was Xia Ning who took over.
She was a little confused.
"Is Jinshu feeling unwell today? Why didn't she come?"
"Not really." Xia Ning glanced towards the door meaningfully, "She is simply too embarrassed to come."
Song Yuntang put down the handkerchief in his hand.
"Why?"
Xia Ning approached Song Yuntang and said, "Madam, just go to the door and you will know."
After hearing this, Song Yuntang came to the door and saw Feng Shi kneeling there.
"Feng Shi, what are you doing?"
"I would like to ask Madam for a favor."
He kowtowed reverently to Song Yuntang.
"Please, Madam, make the decision and marry Jinshu to me."
Song Yuntang held back his laughter.
She said, there is no good thing in this world without reason.
"Since you are interested in Jinshu, why do you want to give her some dowry? Why don't you just come to me to arrange a marriage?"
Although Jinshu didn't explain it in detail yesterday, the girl couldn't hide her thoughts, so she naturally guessed that this matter was related to her.
I just didn't point it out because I was worried that she would feel embarrassed.
Feng Shi said somewhat embarrassedly, "I just feel that I am an orphan and have no ability, so I am not worthy of Jin Shu."
Song Yuntang understood.
"Then why do you want to marry her today?"
Feng Shi said truthfully, "When Jinshu returned the silver to me last night, he said that since I was interested in her, I should come directly to Madam to arrange a marriage instead of adding makeup to her. I thought about it and came here with a flattering face."
Song Yuntang nodded.
"I understand. I will give you more opportunities to gain experience in the shops outside. Go down first."
Fengshi was anxious.
"Madam, do you disagree?"
Song Yuntang looked at him, "If you don't agree, why would I let you go for training? But after all, this is related to Jinshu's lifelong event, I still have to ask her opinion first."
Feng Shi breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to Song Yuntang.
"Thank you, ma'am. I'll take my leave now."
Watching Feng Shi leave, Xia Ning couldn't help but smile.
"He's so stupid. This is the first time I've seen someone add makeup to a girl he likes."
Song Yuntang also smiled slightly, looked at her and said, "Xia Ning, go call Jinshu over. I'll ask her what she thinks. If she agrees, we can set a date for them to get the job done as soon as possible."
"yes."
Xia Ning responded and strode out.
When Jinshu entered the room, Song Yuntang was having breakfast, and she stood aside and bowed.
"Madam, are you looking for a servant?"
Song Yuntang hummed and looked in her direction.
"Feng Shi asked me to arrange a marriage for you. What do you think?"
Jinshu looked at her toes.
"Madam, just make the decision."
Song Yuntang smiled, seeming to understand what she meant.
"Just like Lan Xin, go to the warehouse and get a gold hairpin and ten taels of silver. I'll make room for you two when you get married. But now it's the twelfth lunar month and everyone is busy preparing for the New Year. How about arranging your wedding after the New Year?"
Jinshu knelt down and kowtowed.
"Thank you, madam."
Song Yuntang reached out and helped her up.
"No wonder Fengshi likes you. He is sincere and kneels down at every turn. He was kneeling outside the house before I got up this morning. I don't know how long he knelt there."
Jinshu thought of the scene of Fengshi kneeling at the door, and felt both distressed and wanted to laugh.
Like a fool.
From today onwards, I'm afraid everyone in the mansion will tease him about this matter.
After dinner, Song Yuntang began to prepare gifts. She wanted to take Hao Ting to the Tang Mansion and invite the two elders of the Tang Mansion to celebrate the New Year at the hot spring resort.
Yesterday, the Tang family sent a message to our home, saying that the old nanny who had sent the second young lady of the Tang family to the mountains for burial had recovered and was brought to the capital by her son.
But I still can't remember what happened at that time.
Let her go and see if treatment can help her remember her past.
