Chapter 55 Burning the Inn 1
"Miss, the master and his wife have already gone. Should we go over to eat now?"
Song Yu calmed himself down and said, "Just wait and see what I tell you."
"clear!"
When the master and servant arrived at the door, Bai Lan was stopped by two maids arranged by Qiuyue.
"Miss Yu, the old lady, remembering everyone's hard work, has told us servants not to wait on you nearby. We can dine together in the hall."
"Lan'er, follow your two sisters to have dinner."
Bai Lan was worried that Song Yu would die if she went in. "Miss, I'm not hungry."
Song Yu glanced at her and said, "Go and have dinner. You still have to accompany me to draw amulets for good luck tonight. If you don't have enough food and don't have the energy to draw amulets well, I will punish you!"
"Yes! I will go to the hall with my two sisters to have dinner."
"Sister Yu, come in quickly, come to your aunt."
Song Yuchao bowed politely to Chen Chunhua when he entered the room, and then sat down directly to the right of Song Mingzhu.
"Since you're not in the temple now, there's no need to draw amulets. Besides, drawing amulets at night hurts your eyes."
Song Yu looked at Song Mingzhu and said with a smile, "Aunt, I just found the talisman paper in the package, and then I remembered that Master Shanhui had blessed it before, and told me to chant the Buddha's name and draw a peace talisman on the way, which would bless us to arrive safely in the capital. I forgot about it, but now I remember it, I must draw it for everyone tonight, otherwise I will feel uneasy."
Song Rui pursed his lips, a dark light flashed in his eyes, but it was too late.
Even drawing a talisman in advance will not help.
Song Mingzhu's inner uneasiness grew stronger, but she soothed him, "Sister Yu, go ahead and paint, as long as you feel at ease. But don't stay up too late. Just finish it before we set off north tomorrow."
"Yes, aunt." Song Yu looked at Song Mingzhu with clear eyes and a smile in the corners of his eyes. "I will definitely make the amulet beautiful for you."
"Sister Yu, you are so thoughtful." Song Mingzhu lowered her eyes and picked up the handkerchief beside her, pretending to wipe her nails which were as clean as they could be.
She was afraid that if she stared at Song Yu, she would not be able to help but let go and let Song Yu return to the marquis's family.
"Sister Yu, are you going to draw a peace amulet for each of us?" Song Minglang asked.
"Yes, uncle, we all have one, no one is left behind."
"Good boy, thank you for your hard work, Sister Yu."
Song Mingen and Jiang Yunwan looked at each other. Sister Yu was hinting at what was going to happen tonight.
This child is getting smarter and smarter.
Jiang Yunwan couldn't help but feel a little worried. What if the dream didn't happen?
If Ming En can't break off the relationship, doesn't that mean he will have to continue to serve the Song family like a slave?
No, absolutely not.
Don't stop!
Soon, the door was pushed open, and Qiuyue led four servants to bring in dinner.
"Madam, these white flour buns, egg soup, and pickled vegetables are provided free of charge by the inn. The rest of the dishes are made with ingredients we brought according to the preferences of the masters. Do you think they suit your taste?"
Chen Chunhua was very satisfied with the large table of dishes. "Not bad, let's all go downstairs and eat."
"yes."
Qiuyue glanced at Song Mingzhu, then bowed and retreated with her men.
"Let's start eating."
After Chen Chunhua finished speaking, she started eating first.
When Song Yu picked up his chopsticks, everyone else picked up their chopsticks and started picking up their favorite dishes.
Song Minglang and the Cui couple were force-fed medicine by Song Rui for unknown reasons, which made them look miserable while eating.
"Cough cough cough..." Song Rui suddenly choked.
"Brother Rui." Chen Chunhua was immediately shocked.
"Grandma, I'm fine. I just ate too fast. I'm fine now."
Chen Chunhua felt relieved, but when she saw Song Minglang and Cui working hard to eat, she almost burst into curses.
These two gluttons only know how to eat. Their son choked, but they didn’t even know to pat him on the back?
Cui Shi noticed Chen Chunhua's murderous gaze and exclaimed, "Son, are you okay?"
Song Minglang patted Song Rui's back, the worry on his face uglier than crying, "Son, can you still swallow your food?"
Song Rui looked at the two of them with a half-smile. His parents were quite vindictive.
"It's okay, you two elders continue eating, eat more."
Song Yu put down his chopsticks and said, "Mom and Dad, I'm full. I'm going back to draw amulets."
"Go ahead. Your mother and I have finished eating. Please sit with her for a while."
"Ming En, you can all go back after you finish eating. We have to get up early and travel tomorrow, so everyone should go to bed early."
"Then my son will take his leave."
"Mom, we are full too." Song Minglang took Cui and followed Song Mingen out of the room.
"Wanwan, let's go to Sister Yu's room and watch her draw amulets."
"good."
The family of three entered Song Yu's room and closed the door tightly.
Song Yu took out the talisman paper and said, "Daddy and Mommy, since you are here, I will draw it for you first."
"Draw it for your mother first."
"Okay, Daddy, draw for Mom first."
Song Yu only drew on the talisman paper for half a quarter of an hour before looking up at the couple and whispering, "It's time."
Then he raised his voice and said, "Daddy and Mommy, I'm a little sleepy and want to sleep. What should I do? I don't want to paint, but I have to."
Song Mingen looked outside the door. "It's just a talisman paper. You can do it on the road tomorrow. Don't take it too seriously. Go to sleep if you're tired. You're too weak to stay up late... Hey, Daddy is a little sleepy too."
"Ming En, I'm sleepy too. Let's go back and sleep..."
Jiang Yunwan stood up, then sat back down, making a noise.
After a while, the room was so quiet, without a single sound.
Song Rui walked out of Chen Chunhua's room and Qiuyue came towards him.
"What's going on with Aunt Qiuyue, Zhang Feng, Caiwei Bailan, and the others?"
"Reporting to Master Rui, they have all been hit and fainted. Just in case, someone has been arranged to watch them."
Song Rui nodded and pushed open Song Yu's room.
In the room, Song Yu was lying on the table, while Song Mingen and Jiang Yunwan had fainted on the armchair.
"Sister, uncle and aunt..."
Song Rui called out twice, but seeing no response, he pushed Song Mingen and called out again, "Uncle."
The family of three was still unconscious.
Song Rui pulled out the unfinished amulet from under Song Yu's hand, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his lips.
"Song Yu, you can't draw a peace talisman after all."
Song Mingzhu and Chen Chunhua walked in.
Chen Chunhua stepped forward to check the three people's breathing, and her face instantly turned pale. "Mingzhu, did you give us the wrong medicine? Why are they dead?"
"Impossible." Song Mingzhu hurried forward to check, "Mom, she's breathing, but it's a little weak. She'll wake up tomorrow morning."
"I'm glad you're okay. Then quickly send someone in to take Sister Yu away."
"Madam." At this time, Zhang Yuan walked in with an unnatural look on his face, followed by two strong old maids.
"First, send Sister Yu to Xuancheng and let Aunt Xu hide her."
Song Yu, who pretended to be unconscious, was full of questions. Why did they hide her?
Wasn't the inn on fire?
Why is it different from the previous life?
What went wrong?
Before Song Yu could figure out what was going on, he was picked up by an old maid and then placed on the back of another old maid.
"Who are you? Put him down!"
