When Song Liyun left the town, her wooden plow was loaded with things, including food and household items, but they were all secondhand.
At Mr. Mu's urging, she spent all the money she had.
Song Zhenping pushed the cart for her from behind.
His clothes were covered in mud and snow, and his pants even had a big tear in them.
Every time Song Liyun glanced at him, he would smile shyly.
Just now, when he was at home, someone suddenly ran over and said that Yun'er was fighting with someone in town.
These words terrified him, and he ran to town alone without even calling Han Ming from the backyard.
By the time he arrived, the people on the street had already dispersed, and all Song Zhenping could see was a mess of slush and mud.
I don't know what happened, and I haven't seen Song Liyun.
Song Zhenping was extremely anxious and went directly to Xue Zhuang's house.
Seeing that the gate was tightly closed, he cried and shouted, then picked up a hoe and smashed the gate of Xue Zhuang's house, tearing his own pants in the process.
The scene was so fierce that Xue Zhuang's family knew they were in the wrong and hid, not daring to show themselves.
It was only after someone else told him that Song Liyun wasn't there that he was led to Boss Mu's shop, where he saw Song Liyun sitting inside drinking tea, that he calmed down.
Song Zhenping was relieved, but things were not peaceful in the town.
The Song siblings stirred up the town twice in half a day.
The incidents of Song Liyun assaulting someone in the street and Song Zhenping smashing a door with a weapon have spread far and wide, making it impossible for them to keep a low profile from now on.
As soon as the brother and sister left the town, Song Liyun suddenly stopped and looked at the grove of weeds beside them.
At that moment, a person was lying in the snow among the tree branches.
"Oh dear, could that be a dead person over there?" Song Zhenping exclaimed as he saw it.
Song Liyun had just heard Boss Mu say that the Di people's custom during their winter leisure time was to plunder, and she was still thinking about it.
Upon seeing the dead body, his first thought was that the Di people had arrived, and he immediately reached under the wooden plow.
She doesn't use her spatial weapons easily now, only carrying a sturdy oak stick with her.
She was telling Song Zhenping to be careful when she turned around and saw that the boy had already abandoned her and was limping into the woods.
Song Liyun frowned slightly, dropped the wooden plow, and followed.
A thin woman lay on the ground, and it was unclear how long she had been lying there; her thin jacket and skirt were already soaked with snow water.
Beside her was a small pile of scattered branches.
These woods are close to the town; the larger trees had long been cut down by the townspeople, leaving only sparse, finger-thick branches standing upright.
The bundle of firewood that the woman broke off consisted of thin twigs.
Upon seeing that it was a woman, Song Zhenping was at a loss. Song Liyun stepped forward to check her breathing and found that she was still breathing.
"Brother, let's take her back."
Song Liyun knew that if she didn't take care of this woman, she would die.
We're not even asking who she is right now; we'll save her life first.
Song Liyun now knows that almost everyone who survived in Suijin Town had escaped death.
Human life is both tenacious and fragile; the chance to live again is very small.
Aside from those fools who are courting death, we should help these pitiful people if we can!
Song Liyun picked up the woman, who was as light as a feather and just skin and bones.
Having seen the Song brothers, Song Liyun was already immune to their presence. She simply sighed inwardly and then carried them on her back.
Back at Baolin Residence, in the warm room, after drinking another bowl of ginger soup, the woman slowly woke up.
She first looked around blankly, and after a while, she finally focused her gaze on Song Liyun's face.
Song Liyun thought the woman was about to say something, but instead she closed her eyes and murmured, "Thank you for saving me!"
At Baolinju, the woman said nothing, put on her dried clothes, ate something, and then left.
Song Liyun offered her two jin of acorn flour, but she refused. She only asked Song Liyun for a small bundle of firewood, and then refused the siblings' offer to see her off, leaving alone through the snow.
Han Ming stared thoughtfully at the woman's retreating figure.
"You know her?" Song Liyun didn't look at the woman, but stared at Han Ming.
Han Ming chuckled awkwardly, "Suijin Town is that small, of course I know her, it's just that she doesn't know me."
"Who is she? She looks rather pitiful," Song Zhenping interjected.
Han Ming muttered to himself, "Who in this town isn't pitiful?"
Song Zhenping didn't hear what he was saying, and asked again, "Whose is she? Why is she sending a woman out empty-handed to gather firewood?"
Song Liyun continued to stare intently at Han Ming, her meaning clear: she had to speak.
Han Ming rubbed his rough face and said awkwardly, "That woman is Jin Sanzhong's wife."
Jin Sanchong?
Song Liyun suddenly remembered the little thief who had been scratched by Hei Jin and whom she had let go.
Since Kim Sam-jung and Han Ming were arrested before they even entered the house, it was considered an attempted crime, and they did not harm the Song family.
Kim Sam-joong would come up with another excuse, saying that Song Liyun was "rich but heartless" and that he was a chivalrous person acting on behalf of Heaven.
Song Liyun didn't want to add any more bloodshed to Baolin Residence, so she only gave them a minor punishment before letting them go.
As a result, Kim Sam-jung ran away on his own, while Han Ming volunteered to become a servant at Baolin Residence.
Song Liyun was puzzled: These days have passed, the scratches Hei Jin inflicted should have healed by now.
Why would you let your woman dress so lightly and go out alone to gather firewood?
Han Ming shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I only have regular contact with Jin Sanzhong. I don't go into his house. I only know that his wife was found by him five years ago... from a well."
The manhole cover was covered with a stone slab at the time, and the woman underneath went hungry for three days. If it weren't for Kim Sam-joong, she would have starved to death.
"So it seems that Kim Sam-jung is actually a good person?" Song Liyun frowned.
Han Ming didn't say anything more.
He couldn't say whether the woman was good or bad; the fact that she had survived five years to this day suggested she was a good person.
This little incident passed just like that. Song Liyun went to the backyard and wreaked havoc on a bunch of tender vegetable seedlings.
In the evening, the side courtyard of Baolin Residence was brightly lit with candlelight, and the three siblings, Song Liyun, Song Liyun, and Song Liyun, sat around the kang table.
Xiao An was holding a color-printed laminated sheet, looking at it intently with Black Gold Head close to his.
Those pictures are actually a recipe with detailed steps. Because of the beautiful photography, the dishes are lifelike in every step, making them look incredibly appetizing.
Black Gold looked at it, smacked its lips, and couldn't resist reaching out its paw to touch it.
Xiao An quickly covered the picture in her hand to her chest and waved her hand at Hei Jin in refusal: "No, no!"
He was afraid that the black gold claws would scratch the pictures.
Black Gold curled his thick lips to show his displeasure. Seeing that Xiao An still wouldn't take out the piece of paper, he immediately lay down on the kang and started rolling around and throwing a tantrum.
Xiao An started to coax it by touching its toes, and soon Black Gold was happy, and they looked at the pictures together again.
On the other side, Song Liyun was holding a book with colorful pictures of various animals on the cover.
The book was open, and Song Liyun was reading aloud softly:
"Rabbit farming must be done at fixed times and in fixed quantities. Rabbits should be fed until they are about 70-80% full at a time. The standard feeding amount is within two hours... oh, within one hour, the feed should be completely consumed, and then fed again after 4-5 hours..."
