Chapter 163 The pepper seeds have sprouted
Song Jinsheng pushed it back, "You paid for all the medicine, what are you doing for me?"
Song Yuntang thought about it, took out ten taels of silver and handed them to him, "Second brother can't work for three months, you take these ten taels, and the other twenty taels are for safekeeping. I will give them to you when Second brother marries Second sister-in-law in the future."
Song Jinsheng couldn't persuade her, so he had to accept it as she wished.
…
For lunch, I had white rice, braised pork and wild vegetables.
Pour the thick sauce on the white rice and mix it, everyone eats it with their mouths full of oil.
Xu Qingye put down his chopsticks and looked at Song Yuntang.
"Since you have already moved into the manor, I will go back today. If you have anything else, you can always come to Lushan Village to find me. I should be at home these days."
Hearing him say this, Song Yuntang suddenly felt reluctant.
Although Xu Qingye was always silent when he was by her side, he gave her a great sense of security.
But the two of them haven't gotten married yet, so she can't always ask him to accompany her. Besides, her second brother has moved into the farm, so there is really no empty house to live in.
It's not appropriate to ask them to sleep in the same room.
"Okay, I'll ask my cousin to lead the mule to carry a few bags of food for you to Lushan Village later."
The person who went to Lushan Village with Xu Qingye was Song Zhiye.
In order not to appear too ostentatious, he only let the mule carry two bags of grain. After a few days, the carriage was completed. Song Yuntang thought about transporting a few more bags of grain on the day of the wedding.
"Second brother, this lock is for you. Remember to lock the house when you enter or leave from now on." Song Yuntang handed a lock to Song Jinsheng.
Song Jinsheng knew her concerns and agreed readily.
There are fifty dan of grain. Even if two dan are transported away today, there will still be forty-eight dan left. Rice is very precious. This much rice is worth dozens of taels.
…
Tomorrow is the day agreed to deliver the goods. Song Yuntang sorted out the seven hundred cans of shampoo that Chen had prepared in the past few days and put them aside, then led the mule to the town.
"Mudong."
Mu Dong heard the sound and ran out quickly.
"Miss Song, you are here."
Song Yuntang hummed, "My second brother had an accident yesterday. My cousin will go to town with you tomorrow. The construction of the carriages on the farm has been delayed. I'm afraid it will take a few days. You should go and order a carriage first, so that I can go to the farm with you to transport shampoo tomorrow."
"What's wrong with Jinsheng?" Mu Dong looked worried.
"I was beaten and have injuries on my body. I need to recuperate." Song Yuntang said simply.
Mu Qiu also came up to the two of them and asked, "Is Brother Jinsheng seriously injured?"
"It's a bit serious, he has a broken bone. I'm afraid he won't be able to do heavy work for a long time." Song Yuntang looked at them, "He can't go to town often during this period. My cousin will deliver the goods for him. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
After saying that, he led the mule to Baicaotang to buy the ingredients needed for sour plum soup.
Mu Qiu felt a little uncomfortable. She looked at Mu Dong beside her and said, "Brother, shall we go see Brother Jinsheng later?"
Mu Dong nodded in response, "He's injured so badly, we should go see a doctor."
Then he raised his hand and rubbed Mu Qiu's head, "Okay, you take care of the shop first, I'll go see whose carriage is free tomorrow, we can't delay Miss Song's business."
After Mu Dong left, Mu Qiu returned to his seat.
She frowned and looked restless.
…
As soon as Song Yuntang arrived at Baicaotang, Manager Li and Tian Liu both took the initiative to greet her.
"What would you like to order today, Miss Song?"
Song Yuntang took out a list and said, "It's still these things. How is the business of Shopkeeper Li recently?"
Shopkeeper Li smiled and said, "With Miss Song's care, things are naturally much better than before."
He looked at Song Yuntang.
"Since Miss Song has such amazing medical skills, why doesn't she open a clinic? You are wasting your talent."
Song Yuntang blinked.
"Manager Li wants to find a doctor?"
Shopkeeper Li stroked his beard and said, "Now that our Baicaotang has established a relationship with the Jiang family, we are not completely without foundation in the town. We do have the idea of finding a doctor to sit in the hall. It was also the idea of the Jiang family's wife that we asked the young lady for her opinion today."
Song Yuntang thought about it.
"It's not impossible, but my time is limited every day, so I'm afraid I can't see many patients."
Shopkeeper Li said hurriedly, "It's OK. One hour or two hours every day, or every other day, is fine. We can follow Miss Song's schedule."
Song Yuntang nodded, "I'll think about it. After the 23rd, I'll give Manager Li a reply."
She has enough things on hand right now, and she is afraid that she can't take care of so many things. At least she can't delay her marriage. The Xu family is very concerned about this matter, so she naturally can't fall behind.
"Why does it have to be after the 23rd?" Shopkeeper Li asked curiously.
Song Yuntang smiled and said, "I will get married on the 23rd."
Shopkeeper Li understood and smiled as he raised his hand towards Song Yuntang, "I see. Congratulations to Miss Song first."
"Thank you very much."
Song Yuntang took two large bags of ingredients for sour plum soup, paid eight hundred coins and delivered the items to the tavern.
After these few days, the floor and stairs of the tavern have been completed, and from tomorrow they will start adding another floor. After the roof is covered, they will start to decorate and repair the interior.
All of this takes time.
Song Yuntang put the bucket of ice water that she had left here last night on the mule's back, asked Song Mazi to help her lock the door of the tavern before leaving, and then led the mule back to the farm.
After Song Mazi finished his work in the tavern during the day, he had to go back to the farm to instruct Qiao Da and others on how to build a mule cart.
After dinner, we went back to Rongshu Village with them before dawn.
…
After returning to the farm and unloading the bucket of ice water, Song Yuntang suddenly remembered the chili seeds planted by the mountain spring.
I've been so busy these days that I forgot to go check on him. Luckily, Song Jinsheng has been helping to take care of him for her during this period of time. But now he's injured, so she has to take care of him herself from now on.
Song Yuntang took the bucket and went into the mountains.
The weather is already a little cooler now, and walking beside the mountain spring makes it even cooler.
Song Yuntang came to the small piece of land and jumped for joy when he saw the densely packed young seedlings just unearthed through the fishing net.
“It actually sprouted!!!”
After watering the pepper seedlings and covering the net again, Song Yuntang went down the mountain and returned to the yard.
"Second brother, you didn't go home for the holiday yesterday. Will your parents scold you?"
As she spoke, she took a small shovel and kicked the wall to turn the soil, wanting to sow some of the remaining pepper seeds.
Song Jinsheng sat under the eaves, staring at Song Yuntang, not knowing what she was going to do.
"Changbai said that my parents looked unhappy when they heard that I would not go home for the holidays, but they did not say anything. I guess they probably thought that I did not want to care about them like you do. But in my current state, it is really inconvenient for me to go back. I am afraid of scaring them."
