Chapter 308 Today's embarrassment is caused by her
Lin family.
After Song Yuntang led a few yamen runners away, Zhuang Wenyin slapped Lin Zhaozhao in the face again.
"You've grown wings. You're turning a deaf ear to my words, aren't you? If I don't agree with you becoming a concubine, then go find your father. You're a rich lady, but you're going to be a concubine to a scholar from a peasant family. If this gets out, how can I put my face aside?"
She looked very excited.
After he finished speaking, his face turned red.
Lin Zhaozhao was frightened by her appearance.
She covered her face and cried, "Mother, my reputation has been ruined, and there is no hope for me to marry into a wealthy family. Xu Qingye is just a poor scholar, but he is well-educated, and Song Yuntang can make money. If I marry him, at least I will have a chance to live a rich life in the future. I don't think there is anything wrong with that."
"Anyway, my daughter, Zhuang Wenyin, cannot be a concubine!" She took a deep breath, "From today on, you are not allowed to leave the Lin family until the moment before you get married. If you don't obey, don't blame me for not recognizing you as my daughter. Whether you live or die in the future has nothing to do with me!"
After Zhuang Wenyin made those harsh words, she turned and left.
Seeing this, Nanny Zhao hurriedly followed.
"Madam, don't be angry. The young lady is young and naive. When she gets married, she will know that Madam is thinking about her."
"Call a few more reliable matchmakers from Cile Town to me tomorrow to help Zhao Zhao's marriage avoid any trouble." Zhuang Wenyin said as she walked away.
Lin Zhaozhao stomped her feet heavily and turned back to the yard.
…
After the bailiff left, Mu Dong took Song Yuntang back home and gave her the earnings for the remaining days of the month.
From the 18th to the 27th, a total of ten days, the shop earned 42 taels of silver, plus the 79 taels from the previous 17 days, a total of 119 taels of silver.
Although the shop was smashed by Lin Zhaozhao, the reward promised before if the shop's revenue exceeded one hundred taels still had to be given, after all, it was not their fault.
Song Yuntang gave this month's wages along with a reward of three taels of silver to the brother and sister.
"Mu Dong, if you still want to continue working with me, take a few days off and come to the county town to find me. I will arrange for you to go to Yingshan City. I plan to open a new shop in Yingshan City." She looked at Mu Qiu again, "And Mu Qiu too."
The brother and sister Mu Dong and Mu Qiu have been running the shop for a month or two and have accumulated some experience. The key is that she is trustworthy.
If she had to find a new person, she would have to personally oversee many things due to the lack of trust in the early stages.
After all, the situation in the provincial capital is much more complicated than that in Cile Town.
If you're not careful, things could go wrong.
Mu Qiu nodded quickly.
"I am definitely willing to continue following you."
Mu Dong also said, "Then let's take a two-day break and go to the county town to find you on the first day of the new year."
Song Yuntang smiled and said, "Okay, I'll ask Tu Shi and my second brother to go with you then."
Mu Dong looked at her.
"Doesn't Jinsheng still have to look after the farm work?"
"Trust the people you employ and don't employ the people you doubt. Those people in Zhuangzi have been following me for some time, and I trust them," said Song Yuntang.
Mu Dong nodded and said, "Okay, as long as Miss Song succeeds, that's good enough."
…
After leaving the southern suburbs, Song Yuntang went straight to Zhuangzi.
Just after leaving Cile Town, I suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves behind me.
Turning around, she saw a tall horse stop in front of her. The man dismounted and hurriedly came to her to look her over.
Between his brows, there was a worry that Song Yuntang had never seen before.
"Did the Lin family bully you?"
Song Yuntang was a little stunned.
"Why are you here?"
Xu Qingye calmed down his breathing a little, "Mother said that there was an emergency in Cile Town and you were needed to handle it. After I heard the news, I thought you might go to Lord Zhu for help, so I went to the government office first. Lord Zhu told me what happened to you. On the way, I met the county government's runners. I thought the Lin family's matter should have been resolved."
"I'm fine. The Lin family's problems have indeed been resolved. With the officials following me, the Lin family can't bully me." She turned to look at him, "You rushed here without having lunch?"
Xu Qingye nodded, led the horse and followed her towards the direction of the farm.
"I heard that Mr. Lin came to see you? Wencheng said you didn't look well when you came out of the teahouse."
Song Yuntang walked forward calmly.
"Since you have been to the government office, you should know that the officials followed me to Cile Town, so I will not be wronged. You came here just to ask me this?"
"I was worried that you would be bullied by the Lin family, so I wanted to support you." The man looked at the girl beside him, "But I didn't expect that when I arrived, you had already solved the problem."
A sense of frustration suddenly arose in my heart.
He is studying hard now, hoping that he can help her when she needs his help.
But right now, it seems that she would rather solve some problems on her own.
Song Yuntang knew what he was thinking.
So far, Xu Qingye is indeed a very good person. Maybe she was really stimulated by Lin Hongshen’s words, which made her a little afraid that she would be hurt in the future, so she subconsciously wanted to protect herself.
"The Lin family's affairs are all trivial matters and are not difficult to resolve."
Seeing that they had already arrived at the farm, Song Yuntang didn't want to say too much.
"You've just recovered. It's not good for your health to be hungry. I'll go get you something to eat first."
After saying that, he walked quickly towards the kitchen in the courtyard.
Xu Qingye stood there holding the horse, quietly looking at her receding back, his expression gradually becoming solemn.
Been with her for such a long time.
It is not difficult to notice that she is different today than she was in the past.
It was as if the door of his heart that had slowly opened to him suddenly closed.
so……
The problem may lie with Mr. Lin.
After he got some fodder for the horse, he also went to the yard.
Miao was helping in the kitchen, so Xu Qingye did not go over there. He just quietly played with Zhao Fubao and Fang Xiaobao who were playing in the yard for a while. The food was ready.
Scrambled eggs with shepherd's purse, stir-fried lotus root slices, and a bowl of wild vegetable soup.
"We came here in a hurry, and the farm doesn't have any food prepared. You just have to eat whatever you can." Song Yuntang said, handing him the chopsticks.
Although he was still smiling, I felt a little more distant.
Xu Qingye took the chopsticks she handed him calmly.
"It's okay. It's already very good."
Song Yuntang looked at him and said, "Then you eat first. I have something to do with my second brother."
Xu Qingye nodded, "Okay."
After explaining some things to Song Jinsheng, Song Yuntang wanted to walk around the farm alone and get some fresh air, so he did not return to the courtyard immediately.
As they walked, Xu Qingye came up behind her, leading the horse.
"Going home?"
Look back at him.
The man still looked calm and composed, but perhaps because he was in a hurry today, his clothes and hair were a little messy and he looked a little dishevelled.
She had never seen him in such a miserable state since he was Mr. Xu.
Today's embarrassment was caused by her.
Looking at Xu Qingye like this, Song Yuntang's uneasy heart suddenly calmed down.
