The next day, Song Yuehua found the aunt who had sold her the lamb at the county market.
When the aunt heard it was a wild sheep, she said hurriedly, "This won't do. It won't produce any lambs. How about I take it back home, breed it for you, and bring it back to you."
Song Yuehua thought about it, then shook her head and said, "Auntie, do you have any lambs? I'll take a few back to raise."
“Yes, yes, yes!”
The auntie said excitedly, "I have two three-month-old lambs at home. Since you are a regular customer, I won't charge you too much. I will charge you one ounce of silver for each lamb. Do you want any?"
"I want them all." Song Yuehua said.
After hearing this, the aunt handed over the stall to the vendor next door, just like last time, and ran home to hug the lamb.
Song Yuehua was sitting in front of the stall bored, when suddenly, she saw an acquaintance.
Liu Meiniang?
Didn’t she eloped with Gu Qing?
Song Yuehua was curious for a moment, so she said something to the vendor next door and then chased after him.
After turning a few alleys, Liu Meiniang finally stopped at a door and knocked. It was Gu Qing who answered the door.
"Why did you come back just now?" Gu Qing complained, and quickly pulled the person in. He stuck his head out to look outside the door, and after making sure that there was no one, he immediately retracted his head.
With a bang, the door closed tightly.
Only after hearing the door close did Song Yuehua come out from the corner.
The alley is called Jiuqu Alley, named after its winding alley.
Song Yuehua was curious for a moment and looked inside through the crack of the door. She only heard the voice but didn't see the person, so it didn't matter.
Suddenly, someone patted her shoulder and Song Yuehua was startled.
Turning around, I saw a plainly dressed teenager pointing at a ladder carried by another kid behind me and asked, "Do you want it?"
After the three of them left the door, Song Yuehua asked, "How much?"
"Ten cents."
"make a deal."
Song Yuehua stepped onto the ladder and leaned on the wall to look inside.
In the yard, Gu Qing was sitting there reading a book, while Liu Meiniang was leaning on the table, supporting her chin with one hand and pinching an orange slice to feed Gu Qing with the other hand.
"Don't go out unless necessary in the future." Gu Qing said without raising his head.
Liu Meiniang said softly, "I have finished taking the medicine I prescribed last time. I can't do anything else!"
"Then don't take it!" Gu Qing slammed the book on the table and said angrily, "You have been taking this medicine for a long time. If it was really effective, you would have been pregnant long ago. Anyway, you take it if you want to, I won't."
"Gu Lang..."
Liu Mei Niang felt very aggrieved and sobbed softly, "If I don't have a child, how can I marry into the Gu family? Do I have to hide like this for the rest of my life?"
Gu Qing put away the book, turned away and said nothing.
"Gu Lang..." Liu Meiniang stood up and knelt at Gu Qing's feet. She laid softly on his legs and said in a tender voice, "The doctor said that it will definitely work if you take three more doses. Just think of it as my sake and stop being stubborn, okay?"
At this point, Liu Mei Niang raised her head, and was about to cry. I felt pity for her and said, "Don't you want to marry me and stay with me forever?"
Gu Qing sighed, stroked Liu Mei Niang's hair and said, "After taking these three prescriptions, if it still doesn't work, don't force it. How about that?"
"Of course," Liu Meiniang said as she climbed onto Gu Qing's neck.
After that, Song Yuehua stopped watching.
The young man raised his eyes and said, "The next part is interesting, why don't you watch it?"
Song Yuehua, "..."
Handing the boy 10 coins, Song Yuehua asked, "What's your name?"
The boy took the copper coin and said casually, "Egg."
Song Yuehua nodded and said, "Dandan, I have a business here, do you want to do it?"
"Tell me about it."
Song Yuehua pointed at Gu Qing's house and said, "Help me keep an eye on this family. If they make any move, come to Taoyuan Village School to find Miss Song. I'll give you 50 coins for each piece of information. How about that?"
Dandan looked at Song Yuehua for a moment before saying, "500 Wen."
"50 cents." Song Yuehua said.
"300 wen."
Song Yuehua frowned and said, "70 Wen, if you raise the price, forget it."
"Deal!" Dandan said with a smile.
After finishing the work here, Song Yuehua returned to the stall.
The auntie had returned. Seeing Song Yuehua, she said to the vendor next to her, "Well, I told you that this girl would come back."
Song Yuehua smiled but said nothing. The two lambs looked very energetic and healthy after examination. She paid two taels of silver and took one back in each hand.
After returning home, Song Yuehua sent the lamb to Dongshan compound.
When Liu Xue saw the three sheep in the pen, one big and two small, she couldn't help but admire her master.
I asked her how to make a sheep give birth, and she ended up giving birth to two lambs. It was convenient, but it didn't save much money.
"What are you going to do with this one?" Liu Xue asked, pointing at the wild sheep in another pen.
On the way back, Song Yuehua had made up her mind, "Sell it."
Liu Xue nodded, at least she could make some money back.
"I saw Gu Qing and Liu Meiniang." Song Yuehua said.
"They are not..." Liu Xue paused and said, "Forget it. It has nothing to do with me anyway."
Song Yuehua hummed, and then said, "When your mother gets pregnant, they will come back."
"You know all this." Liu Xue said in surprise.
"The hermit has his own clever plan." Song Yuehua said with a smile.
It’s better not to talk about things like climbing walls.
Liu Xue snorted and didn't ask any more questions. She continued, "Huang Fengjuan came over today..."
"Huang Fengjuan?" Song Yuehua asked hurriedly, "How did you find this place? Are you okay?"
Liu Xue said calmly, "I'm fine, but Cui Gu was tickled, and it was Uncle Dafu who finally got some farmhands to get rid of her."
