Chapter 412: Going Home to Visit Relatives (2)
Song Liyun raised her brows as if she had heard something funny, and after a while she chuckled twice: "I won't go to see her. Since your wife is ill, it's better for her to concentrate on recuperating. If she can't eat, feed her. If she can't drink the medicine, give her medicine. We have to save her life!"
After saying this, he whipped his horsewhip and rode away.
Master Xue watched Song Liyun and the others rushing straight to Xiaoshi Village. He didn't care about the dust that had not yet settled in his face. He grabbed the attendant beside him and said in a hoarse voice, "Hurry up and go to the old house to invite the lady back. While you're there, ask Hei Pi to prepare a dose of medicine for the lady to drink so she can rest and recuperate."
He gestured with his hands in front of his attendant, who immediately understood: "Don't worry, sir. I'll do it right away."
"Go quickly!" Master Xue roared sternly.
The follower did not dare to delay and hurried to the town to find the donkey cart and Heipi.
Mr. Xue supported his waist and calmed himself down. He was originally unsure of the attitude of the Song brothers and sisters, but Song Liyun's words "You have to save your life" made him have an opinion.
Take the person back home and raise him well, but first make sure he keeps his mouth shut and doesn't let anyone else say anything. This will also balance the relationship between the two families!
Hei Pi sells dog-skin plasters at a stall. He has no special skills, but he has a recipe for treating mute animals.
The effect is significant, and people who drink it will become mute.
In Xiaoshi Village, the wife of the village head held Song Liyun with one hand and hugged Xiao An with the other, crying out "My heart! My liver! My poor child!", crying loudly!
The aunties and sisters from the neighborhood were wiping their tears. Outside the courtyard stood a crowd of people who had come to watch the excitement.
Everyone wanted to see what Xiao An, who was so unsteady when he walked, looked like, and also to take a closer look at Miss Song, who escaped from Xiaoshi Village and set up a family business in Suijin Town.
It was Yang Hua and Erlang's wife who persuaded everyone: "Second sister and the others just came back and are still hungry. Aunts, please come back tomorrow to talk!"
Song Liyun also said: "Tomorrow, please ask all the aunts and sisters to come and help with the stove. I will ask the village head to help prepare a banquet to thank the villagers for taking care of my family."
When they heard that there would be food and drinks tomorrow, everyone in and outside the yard responded in unison. Song Lizheng quickly drove everyone out and began to prepare tables, chairs and benches.
Song Liyun and the others also took a shower and changed their clothes. When they left the house, the food was already on the table.
The wife of the village head and Erlang's wife did not leave, but helped Yang Hua pack up her things. They have been at Song Zhenping's house all these days.
Without anyone around, Song Liyun finally thanked the village head's wife again and again: "Thank you, uncle, for taking care of my sister-in-law. My brother told me that my sister-in-law vomited so much a few days ago that she couldn't eat. She relied on the oil-free chicken soup that my second aunt made to keep her going."
The village head's wife had tears in her eyes. She smiled and pulled her to sit down. "Before, we wanted to help you three siblings, but none of us had the courage. I hope you can stop blaming your village head. What's the point of doing this now? It's just paying for the sins we committed in the past!"
She let Song Liyun eat first, and couldn't help but whispered, "I heard from Daping that you're already engaged, and it's someone from over there. Are you going to get married by the end of this year?"
"I heard that the barbarians on the grasslands all look like bears, eat raw meat, and kidnap people!"
The village head's wife looked worried: "Xiao Yun, if you have any difficulties, just tell your uncle. Don't be wronged. It's your life at stake!"
Yang Hua had met Zhao Tingduo before. She said that Xiaoyun's husband did not look like a bear, but was just like any other Wu Dynasty man. However, the village head's wife did not believe it.
In daily conversations, if a child is scared and cries, they are sent to Di Man to eat.
What’s the point of being handsome? He might look like a human during the day and eat people at night.
Song Liyun was at a loss for words about the headwoman's idea. She naturally couldn't explain that the Di people were normal humans who ate cooked food and wore clothes. She could only vaguely explain that her industry was inseparable from the Di tribe.
The village head's wife became even more worried: "So, all your money comes from the Di people... Oh, how much suffering must you endure to get the money!"
"It's better to find an honest man in Qingping Town and marry him, and live a down-to-earth life."
Song Liyun knew that the village head's wife had good intentions, so she couldn't hide it from her any longer. "Auntie, although that family is from the grassland, their eating habits are similar to ours, and they often visit Yunzhou. If I marry there, it will be just like being in Wu Dynasty."
The village head's wife was half-believing and half-doubting: "Although Daping did say this, she still married far away!"
Song Liyun didn't want to talk about her marriage anymore, so she smiled and changed the subject: "My sister-in-law should be close, but she followed my brother to Qingping Town, like a kidnapped young wife."
It only takes more than an hour to get from Yang Hua's parents' home to Suijin Town, but Song Zhenping wanted to stay in Xiaoshi Village, so she had to marry far away from home, hundreds of miles away.
Yang Hua was not used to being teased by her sister-in-law. She glared at Song Liyun in reproach and stuffed the egg drop soup in her hand into hers: "Eat slowly. I want to see if your brother and the others have eaten well!"
As she said that, she held her big belly and moved to the next room to see how Abu and the other men were eating!
Song Liyun jumped up and supported her: "Okay, okay, I won't say anything. Sit down. Don't worry about it, my brother is here."
The village head's wife also said, "How can you, a pregnant woman, take care of these things? I'll let your second aunt serve the men dinner!"
After the village head's wife left, Song Liyun also put down her chopsticks and looked at Yang Hua's clumsy belly and said, "Sister-in-law, what did you and brother agree on? If you really stay in Xiaoshi Village, you won't miss your parents' home anymore?"
Yang Hua sat back on the edge of the kang, touched her belly and said, "I'm not lying, I don't plan to go back to my parents' home.
I told your brother that I would go back when my disappointing little brother grows up. It’s just hard for you, you have to take better care of Xiao An!
Alas! Every family has its own problems.
Yang Hua's younger brother was born in poverty, but when he met his father-in-law, who was unreliable, he wanted to rely on his older sisters' families.
My younger sister married in this village, her family is ordinary, and she ignores him.
So he set his sights on his married sister, but Yang Hua never came back after she left, and it seemed that she really wanted to settle down in Xiaoshi Village.
Song Zhenping also said this.
No matter how good Suijin Town is, he still wants to return to Xiaoshi Village, which is his home.
Song Liyun didn't say much.
Song Lao Er is no longer able to return to the grassland, and Xiao Gu and Song Xiaobao have been sold to the south by the Wan family. There is no one here who can make things difficult for him.
It is also a kind of happiness to be able to live in a place that you are familiar with.
As for whether Xiao An stays or leaves, he will make his own choice when he grows up.
Song Liyun opened the box she brought. Inside were the fine silk cloth prepared for Yang Hua and the child, some ginseng and bird's nests bought in the capital, and jars sealed with oilcloth.
"This time I came, in addition to bringing you cloth and supplements for confinement, I also brought you milk powder for the baby!"
"Milk...powder, what is this?" Yang Hua was confused.
Song Liyun was in a hurry to go to the Balin tribe to deliver milk powder to Yang Hua.
"Milk powder is just milk."
"Sister-in-law, my brother said you don't need to prepare a wet nurse. If you don't have enough milk, you can mix the milk powder with water and it will be drinkable milk. You don't need to eat rice porridge!"
Yang Hua's eyes widened, and she held her belly with her hands and murmured, "My child! You are so lucky!"
