Now, Han Ming's decision to have Song Liyun take the orchid fruit away was also a matter of consideration.
He was born a servant and received servant education from a young age. Although he has now escaped slavery and become a commoner thanks to the tragedy of the Broken Gold, he still retains the habits of a slave deep in his heart.
Although Song Liyun incorporated the Balin tribe into her vassal tribe, she had no intention of selecting maids from among them.
Han Ming felt that if they were to become military households like they were in the Wu Dynasty, it wouldn't matter if they didn't need maids.
Even if she were to become a young mistress in a Di tribe, she would still need to summon servants to demonstrate her status.
Besides orchids, he also planned to go to Qili County to buy a few maids for the girl to take with her.
Understanding Han Ming's meaning, Song Liyun smiled and said, "Uncle Han, there's no need to bring any maids. It's inconvenient to bring them to those places. It would be better to bring a few farming households or various craftswomen and embroiderers."
She didn't see herself as Princess Wencheng, who was sent to marry a foreign ruler; she just felt that having these craftsmen around would make it easier for her to make things.
When Han Ming heard that they needed embroiderers and weavers, he remembered that Song Liyun didn't know how to make clothes and that they really needed someone with skills, so he kept this in mind.
After spending a few days in Suijin Town, Song Liyun prepared to return to Xiaoshi Village.
As soon as the autumn winds begin to blow, the Wuda tribe will send over the wedding dress, and they will follow the procedures of the Wu Dynasty.
The dowry that the Tuowan family purchased from the capital will arrive one after another, and Song Liyun will no longer be able to leave Suijin Town.
From the moment she transmigrated to the Wu Dynasty, Song Liyun only stayed in Xiaoshi Village for three days.
From the moment she plundered Song Lao Er's belongings and climbed over the wall to leave, she never thought of returning.
Unexpectedly, just a few years later, I returned to this village.
The news that Song Liyun was coming back had already spread in Xiaoshi Village a day earlier.
Before dawn, the heavily pregnant Yang Hua asked Song Zhenping to wait at the town entrance, afraid of missing her welcome.
Song Liyun arrived at noon, accompanied by Abu, Xiao An, and Song Erlang, in addition to her four guards.
Her return caused a sensation in Qingping Town, with crowds gathering in front of the town hall.
Those who went to Suijin Town with Song Erlang to work and make a living did not return, but they brought back all their silver.
After four months away, each person brought back at least five taels of silver.
The monthly allowances of forty-odd people put together make up a huge pile of white cash, a sight rarely seen by ordinary people.
The family members who were notified to come and collect the money gathered together, their eyes shining.
Without using any money at home, he earned five taels of silver, more than any other year's income.
If I worked for the Song family for a few more months, I could build two more houses for the family, or I could get married.
On the table in the town hall, there were bundles with names written on them.
That was to bring back some furs and yarn from the grasslands, things that are rarely seen in Qingping Town.
The dark-skinned and thin Song Dequan stared at the crowd below with a serious expression. Every time he called out someone's name, their family members would come over to collect the money, and those who had packages would also collect their packages.
Song Liyun and Xiao An sat to one side, their faces covered in dust. This was the office, and everyone was busy. It wasn't convenient for her to ask someone for water to wash up, so she could only endure it and wash up when she got home.
The craftsmen's families happily took the silver and packages from Song Dequan.
Knowing that the disheveled girl next to her was the owner, she thanked her profusely, bowed and greeted her, and then surrounded Song Erlang to inquire about how her husband and son were doing.
Song Erlang was originally a man of few words, but now he was forced to say a few words to everyone.
The family members weren't greedy; they were satisfied as long as they heard a single word: "good."
It took an hour to distribute the silver. After everyone had left, Song Erlang said apologetically to Song Liyun, "Some people are working outside, so we wanted to get some silver as soon as possible so we could buy as much as we could!"
Everyone who works away from home wants their family to have a better life. They want to get their money as soon as possible so they can buy candy for their children and pastries for their parents in town.
Song Liyun understood this feeling. Yesterday, when they rested at a post station halfway through the journey, Song Erlang specially sent someone back with a message.
It was all because Song Erlang said he wanted everyone to receive the money as soon as possible.
So Song Liyun, who had been traveling for days, had no time to rest before appearing in front of people covered in dust.
That's really fast enough to be number one.
Seeing that the business in town was finally finished, Song Zhenping urged his younger sister to hurry home.
Yang Hua waited anxiously at home, her neck practically growing long from waiting, and she even forced him to leave before dawn.
If my belly weren't so big that I could barely walk, I would have gone straight to town to wait.
Song Liyun also wanted to go back quickly. She wanted to see Yang Hua, who was eight months pregnant, and then take a comfortable bath and change clothes.
The brother and sister left Song Erlang, who had been left behind by their eldest brother, and with Abu and Xiao An, who were getting bored while waiting, they hurriedly set off to leave the town.
However, they were stopped again at the entrance of the town.
Song Liyun sat high on her horse, looking down at the old man standing by the roadside, who had a fawning smile on his face.
Master Xue finally saw Song Liyun's true face.
Upon seeing the woman who had almost been delivered to his Xue family mansion, Master Xue felt a cold sweat pour down his back, and his heart was in his throat.
In terms of beauty, Song Liyun and Song Shuirong were equally matched, and in places like Qingping Town, they were considered beauties.
However, Song Shuirong, who was pampered and spoiled, was still better than Song Liyun in some aspects.
For example: charming!
Song Liyun was neither coquettish nor alluring, but rather possessed a kind of dashing spirit that made Master Xue very uncomfortable.
And those eyes didn't hold the shyness and timidity of an ordinary peasant woman, nor the ingratiating seduction of someone in the sex trade; they held a captivating, awe-inspiring majesty that made it difficult to feel any affection for her!
