Chapter 144: Cold
As soon as Qin Huiyin entered the room, Li Taohua observed her expression and found that she was obviously much happier.
She disguised herself very well just now, but as a mother who has depended on her for many years, she cannot hide her daughter's joys and sorrows.
"Mom, where is the new quilt on our bed that we haven't used yet?"
Li Taohua: “…”
I really underestimated that wolf cub.
Before, he just sent some food, and she didn't want to spoil her daughter's fun, so she went along with her. Now, he even sent a quilt. How could such a smart daughter of hers be so confused when she met him?
"My girl, a quilt is not cheap." Li Taohua reminded.
"He gave me all his wages, enough to buy a few quilts." Qin Huiyin thought Li Taohua was reluctant to part with it, so she comforted her.
Li Taohua muttered, "Is this just a matter of a few quilts? If you continue to be so generous, our house will be emptied out."
Tang Yi smiled and curled his lips: "This guy is really scary. Everyone says he doesn't like to talk, but he still makes my second sister take good care of him. What if he can talk?"
Tang Luwu stopped Tang Yi from laughing sarcastically: "Yinyin must have her reasons for thinking that he is a good person."
Qin Huiyin brought out a new quilt and said to Li Taohua, "Mom, I'm going to go out for a while and will be back soon."
Li Taohua: “…”
'Momo' followed Qin Huiyin's footsteps.
When Qin Huiyin came out, she saw Song Ruize standing not far away waiting. She looked at him in surprise, but saw him stride over and take the quilt from her.
"I'm leaving tomorrow." Song Ruize said.
"You have a day off, right? You have to come back and stay next time you have a day off. Besides, there is also a New Year holiday for repairing the dam. When you come back during the New Year, won't you have to use it too?"
Qin Huiyin followed Song Ruize and appeared in the desolate courtyard again.
"You haven't been back for so long that the grass is taller than you."
Qin Huiyin said casually, followed him into the bedroom, and then bent down to make a blanket for him.
When she came out again, she saw Song Ruize squatting there pulling weeds.
Qin Huiyin came over and helped him pull out the weeds.
"Don't do it." Song Ruize pushed her hand away. "These grasses cut my hands."
"Are you going back to the dam tomorrow morning?"
"I have something else to do. I'll go back when I'm done."
"Then you go ahead and do your work. I'm going back now."
"Wait a minute..." Song Ruize stopped her and stood up to remind her, "Don't move here."
After Song Ruize left, Qin Huiyin continued to pull out the weeds, and then she found that the weeds not only cut her hands, but were also difficult to pull out. She looked around, picked up a hoe and dug directly, digging up the weeds with their roots.
"Here." Song Ruize stuffed a cloth bag into her hand.
Qin Huiyin felt that the things in her arms were heavy, and when she opened them, she saw several large silver ingots. Each large silver ingot was ten taels, adding up to fifty taels.
"You have so much money, why do you want to build a dam?"
“I don’t want to stay in the village.”
"But building a dam is very hard work." Qin Huiyin said, "But fortunately, maybe this is an opportunity in your life. If you keep hunting in the village, no matter how capable you are, your life will end. You are so young and have such good skills, you should really go out and try your luck."
As Qin Huiyin spoke, she stuffed the silver back into his hand.
"You have so much silver, keep it well, what are you going to do for me?"
"Just consider it as an advance payment for the sauces!"
"If I have a bite to eat, I won't give you a bite less. Why should I pay?" Qin Huiyin said unhappily, "If we have to settle it so clearly, then I won't send it to you."
"Then keep it for me." Song Ruize said calmly, "I rarely come back, it's not safe to keep it at home."
Qin Huiyin hesitated, touched the silver ingot and said, "I'll make a separate account book for you and keep it for you temporarily. Come to me when you need it, and I'll give you the silver."
"Yeah." Qin Huiyin said goodbye to Song Ruize and went home happily. She hummed a melodious and cheerful tune all the way and didn't notice that there was a figure following her, who didn't stop until she entered the door.
Song Ruize looked at the closed door.
Qin Huiyin's voice came from inside: "Mom, your beloved daughter is back."
Her voice is light and cheerful, like a warm little sun.
"Go away! Can't you see I'm applying the facial mask you prepared for me?" Li Taohua said with disdain, "I thought you were going to run off with that kid from the Song family!"
"My mom is so cute when she's jealous!"
“Get out, get out!”
"Sister Luwu, stop busying yourself. Come here and let me help you apply a facial mask." Qin Huiyin greeted Tang Luwu.
"Ah? I want one too? No thanks!"
"Come here, let's put on a face mask together."
Song Ruize leaned against the wall and listened to Qin Huiyin's voice until it got dark, then he started to leave.
Master Tang San came out of Carpenter Zhang's house next door, and seeing Song Ruize walking in front of him, he shouted loudly: "Song family boy, wait for me..."
Song Ruize hesitated for a moment, but finally stopped.
If it were in the past, he would definitely ignore it.
Master Tang San caught up with him, looked at Song Ruize and said, "I heard from Erzhu that you are capable now. You are in charge of hundreds of people at such a young age."
"It's just a matter of sticking your head out. It's nothing big." Song Ruize said calmly.
"You are doing very well now." Master Tang San said, "But it is not enough to just build a good relationship with your sister. You have to see the signs first."
Song Ruize didn't understand.
Third Master Tang laughed and said, "Silly boy, who does your sister care about the most? It's not those people in the Tang family, but her mother. You have to make her mother like you, so that you and your sister can be as close as you want, and no one will stop you."
"She doesn't like me." Song Ruize frowned.
"Prescribe the right medicine for the right disease, kid." Master Tang San patted his shoulder. "You are so smart, I believe you will understand."
Mr. Tang Sanye and Song Ruize walked together for a while, then one went left and the other went right, and then they each returned to their own home.
Song Ruize was squatting in the yard pulling weeds.
It was getting dark, and the light was getting scarcer, but there was still a figure squatting in the yard pulling weeds. After the last weed was pulled out, he gathered them up and placed them in the corner.
This house has not been cleaned for a long time. He used to hunt in the mountains, and the existence of this house was dispensable. Anyway, he spent more time sleeping in the trees in the mountains than in this house. Now he feels that he should have a place to live.
After Song Ruize cleaned up the yard, he took his change of clothes and went to the river. When he came back, his body was wet. In such a cold season, he also took a bath in the river.
He touched the soft quilt.
He had never used such a comfortable quilt.
He lay on the bed, covered with a quilt. The coldness in his body disappeared, and the coldness in his heart also disappeared a lot.
