Chapter 477: Uncle Kui is embarrassed
Song Liyun raised her eyebrows. These maids were sent from nearby tribes. They didn't know any rules and didn't understand the Wu Dynasty language. The good thing about them was that they were honest and obedient, and had simple minds.
I'm busy every day.
There was a lot of dust in the spring, so they swept the ground inside and outside the City Lord's Mansion several times with water, and even knelt on the ground and used wet wipes to wipe the carpets they had stepped on until they were spotless.
"Shayi, take Master Lin to the warm room! And bring the milk tea over!" Song Liyun made detailed arrangements.
"Okay, Madam, that Mr. Lin is so handsome, I'll go right away!"
Shayi ran away happily!
Song Liyun raised her eyebrows, but then smiled. These Di girls were cheerful and lively.
Even in the City Lord's Mansion, where Zhao Tingduo was not present, laughter could be heard at any time.
Well, Yuquan, Wan Youyou and the others should like this place too!
Lin Qingyuan came with Song Dekui. The two of them brought more than 20 large carts, which contained various daily necessities and wooden walls.
Seeing Song Liyun, Song Dekui felt a little embarrassed.
“Xiao Yun, don’t take the Xia family’s nonsense to heart.
I only married a woman, and I didn't marry into the Xia family. What does it have to do with you?"
Song Dekui snorted angrily.
He has been in the Balin tribe and Suijin Town all this time. On the one hand, he is still obsessed with his new wife, and on the other hand, he is also on guard against the Xia family coming after him and causing trouble for Xiao An.
His precautions were not in vain. The Xia family indeed ran into trouble in Xiaoshi Village, and a few days later they received news that Xia Pu was injured.
The series of events made the Xia family very angry. They said that Xia Lao San's son-in-law was a disaster star, bringing shame and loss to their family.
He was filled with hatred and wanted to arrest Xia Laosan and Song Dekui and make them kneel in the ancestral hall and donate silver to wash away their sins.
However, before coming, they went to Songfeng Town to report the case and listed Song Liyun as a suspect.
Captain Jiang was smart enough not to come this time. He did not have a good impression of Suijin Town.
He only persuaded the Xia family to come to Suijin Town to find Xia Lao San, and asked a novice yamen runner to go to Qili County to deliver official documents.
The Xia family had no idea what was going on, so they arrived at Qili County in a rage, adding fuel to the fire and asking Jiang Feng to arrest Song Liyun.
The result was naturally unsatisfactory, and he and the yamen runner were expelled from the county government office.
Jiang Feng, thinking about his relatives in the Xia family, just had them kicked out.
The treatment of the yamen runner was much harsher. The document was thrown in his face and he was told: Arresting people without any evidence and just based on speculation is a violation of the law for personal gain.
If Songfeng County continues to knowingly violate the rules, he will directly ask the Songfeng County Magistrate to go to Pingyang Prefecture for tea.
The county magistrate of Songfeng County had just been taken away by the imperial envoy, and he is still like a frightened bird.
The bailiff had no choice but to nod repeatedly, leaving the Xia family behind and returning to Songfeng County to report.
The Xia family was unwilling to be driven out, so they did not return to Songfeng County. Instead, they went to Suijin Town to find Song Dekui and catch up with Xia Lao San.
A few strangers in Suijin Town were asking about Baolinju like headless flies, just like lice on a leper's head. Even the dogs wandering on the street knew that they had bad intentions.
Someone soon reported it to Xue Zhuang and Han Ming.
The Xia family had just asked about the Song family's residence outside the town when Xue Zhuang and his men patted them on the shoulders and took them away.
Han Ming directly detained several people in the storeroom of the guild hall. After finding out that they were Song Dekui's in-laws, he said nothing more and just gave them some clean water every day and starved them for three days.
The Xia family was locked up in a small dark room for three days. They defecated and urinated inside the room. They were cold, hungry, sleepy and scared. They really couldn't get any help from heaven or earth.
Several people were so scared that Xia Hong and Xia Laosan stopped looking for them and just wanted to go back to Xia Village immediately.
When everyone was about to collapse, Song Dekui came to see them and let them go home.
They wanted to see Xia Lao San, but that was impossible.
As for the incident where Xia Pu came back from the grassland and encountered bandits on the way, who robbed him of his silver and broke his leg, he never dared to tell anyone about it again.
At least his life was saved.
If Song Dekui had not fallen out with the Xia family, the Xia family would still have to ask him for compensation.
But after being locked up in the dark room for a few days, the hatred was formed. He was unable to deal with the Song family, but secretly vowed to make Xia Lao San pay if he dared to return home.
Song Dekui heard about what happened on the grassland from Lin Qingyuan, who was transporting goods to Suijin Town.
When he heard Xia Pu calling Xiaoyun "niece" all the time and even extorting money from her... he was so embarrassed that he had no place to hide his face.
Even when he sat next to Song Liyun at this time, half of his butt was hanging in the air, which made him feel uncomfortable.
He only regretted being too confident and wanting to act big in front of Lin Qingyuan. Even though he had seen the Xia family's intentions early on, he still married the girl from the Xia family.
Song Liyun was also helpless. The Xia family was trying so hard to get close to the Song family. No matter how careful they were, there was always a chance. It was a good thing that they turned against the Song family so early.
As for Xia Pu encountering horse bandits on the way, Song Dekui only asked one question: The young master and the garrison commander have cleared both sections of the road. I went there several times in the winter and didn't encounter any problems. How come he was robbed with dozens of people?
Song Liyun told him about the horse bandits she encountered on the Zabu River: "I heard from Old Yu that these horse bandits came here after the Chinese New Year. Ah Shi has already patrolled the road again, so there won't be any problems!"
She did not tell anyone about Jian Fangtong. Mida City was just beginning, and all personnel were blank. Who knows what might happen.
Jian Fangtong was her hidden force, who was placed outside the city by her, and she only arranged a few people in the city to deliver messages.
Apart from Zhao Tingduo and Yu Lao, Song Dekui and Lin Qingyuan also kept the matter secret for the time being.
The two talked about Xiao An for a while.
Now that there are no brothers or sisters at home, Xiao An has grown up and is sensible. He runs the restaurant properly under Han Ming's care.
Song Dekui said, "I think Chef Zhou's daughter treats Xiao An well, and the couple are honest people. If I can marry her into the family, and have her parents-in-law to help me, Xiao An will have less worries!"
He has been in Suijin Town all this time and often stays in Xiao An's restaurant.
I saw that the girl was inseparable from Xiao An and helped with cooking. They seemed to get along very well.
Speaking of which, Xiao An is only thirteen years old now, and even if you count his age, he is not even fifteen, so it is too early to get married.
Song Liyun didn't want to talk about this at first, but when she thought of the big flowers she saw at the Qili County market, she felt that she could consider it in this regard.
Next time I go back to Suijin Town and meet Dahua again, I can bring it up with Chef Zhou and his wife to see what they think.
Speaking of which, Xiao An not only has a good sister, but he is also down-to-earth. As long as he is given time to grow, he will be able to set up a family in the future.
However, my younger brother is always tolerant, and everything depends on the choice of the Zhou couple.
After a while, Lin Qingyuan came out of the warehouse after delivering the goods. He was still busy and sweating in the cold spring breeze.
There are four courtyards in the Mida City Lord's Mansion. The guards of the Lei Camp now live in the outer courtyard, and the second courtyard is the couple's study and warm room, which can be regarded as their office.
Song Liyun and Zhao Tingduo lived in the third courtyard, and the remaining fourth courtyard had a side door. The more than ten large houses in the entire yard served as warehouses, and the things sold in the shop were all here.
Lin Qingyuan arranged for people to hand over more than 20 large trucks of goods to Fang Zheng, who was in charge of the warehouse, before going to the warm room in the second courtyard to meet Song Liyun.
Song Liyun wanted to laugh when she saw him, because she saw several Di maids who were peeping at her were infatuated with him.
