By the end of the month, Ma Ye's injuries had healed.
The first thing he did after he recovered was to bring his entire family, young and old, and the old cow to the Song family to express his gratitude.
Song Yuehua was flattered.
If Aunt Pang hadn't come to chat with her and told her that Wang Heidan's father had quietly walked to the county town alone, she would have almost forgotten about it.
Ma Yong and Tan Xiuxiu were carrying four baskets in their hands. Song Yuehua refused and said, "Uncle Ma Yong, Auntie, this... this is too much, it's not necessary!"
"How come it's not the case!"
Qin Xiuxiu handed the basket to Ma Long, grabbed Song Yuehua's hand and said, "You are the lifesaver of our old cow, and also the benefactor of our family."
Song Yuehua was a little embarrassed, "I was just talking nonsense, it's mainly because of the help of Grandpa Zhou's family."
Although she arranged the matter, the main executors were the Zhou brothers and Ma Yong.
It's not that she has no contributions, but it's not easy to attribute all the credit to her alone.
Ma Ye took the basket from Ma Yong and put it aside. "We will go to thank Old Man Zhou. We all know how much you have helped us."
"Sister Song, you're welcome." Ma Long carried the big basket and put it on the table.
Song Yuehua asked Tian to cook some egg sweet soup.
Ma Ye sighed when he thought of this, "If you hadn't been there to arrange things in an orderly manner, we wouldn't have been able to find the robbers, let alone a single hair."
Song Yuehua smiled and asked, "I wonder if the depression in your heart has dissipated a little."
Mr. Ma’s injury is indeed not serious and he will recover quickly with some rest. I’m just worried that the old man is still depressed.
Song Yuehua told Ma Yong about this at that time. Later, when Tao Laifu could not come up with the money, Ma Yong thought of asking him to kowtow to the old man until the old man felt relieved.
Grandpa Ma laughed and said, "If you still don't feel comfortable, then I can only say that I am too narrow-minded."
The cattle were returned, the silver was recovered, and the robbers got their comeuppance. After learning these things, Master Ma felt not only relieved, but also completely enlightened.
Tan Xiuxiu pulled Ma Long and Ma Hu over and said, "You guys, when you encounter problems in the future, you must learn from Sister Song and be calm and smart."
"Mother..." Ma Long said helplessly, "You can't learn to be smart."
Tan Xiuxiu slapped the boy.
Ma Hu said, "Mother, Master Xie said, 'If you keep company with vermilion, you will become red; if you keep company with ink, you will become black.' I'll come and stay as your guest more often. I'm sure you'll make me smarter."
Qin Xiuxiu thought it was the case, but she felt something was wrong and cursed, "You little bastard, how presumptuous of you! The boss is busy with so many things, how can he have time to entertain you?"
Song Yuehua, "..."
They started talking about the people in Hongye Village again.
Ma Yong said, "Those four people were beaten with sticks by the tribe. I heard that Li Laosi and Liu Mazi's legs were seriously injured. They will probably be lame in the future. Wang Daqiang was beaten with sticks twice."
"Why did he get beaten twice?" Song Yuehua asked.
Ma Yong sneered, "Wang Daqiang's mother knew that her eldest son was going to be spanked, so she put a hard board on his butt. But when she was discovered, the old Wang family members were furious and had their pants taken off and spanked him again. I heard that his entire butt was rotten from the beating."
"And there is Tao Laifu. After he finished beating the board, he went to the county to find a job. He came to my house the day before yesterday and paid back the 200 coins."
As for Wang Heidan from his own village, Ma Yong felt so angry whenever he mentioned him. If it weren't for this beast, such a thing would not have happened.
"Don't let me step on his tail in the future, otherwise I will kill him." Ma Yong said hatefully.
Tan Xiuxiu quickly helped Tian bring the egg sweet soup and said with a smile, "Auntie Tian, how come your egg sweet soup is so delicious?"
Tian smiled and said, "It's all the same, what's the difference?"
After the Ma family finished drinking the chicken soup and sweet soup, they talked for a long time before leaving.
Looking at the four large baskets placed in the house, Song Yuehua carried them back into the house. There was a whole basket full of cured fish and cured meat, as well as cakes, nourishing red dates and white fungus, brown sugar, and several pairs of new shoes and new socks.
It's okay to accept it. Just visit more often in the future and give it back as a return gift.
Time flies, and the Chinese New Year is coming soon. Dongshan is even busier. Before the New Year, they have to take advantage of the good sunshine to dry more vegetables and make a few jars of pickled vegetables.
As more pickles were used, there was not enough salt. Xiaoyu happened to be sending her embroidery to the cloth workshop, so Song Yuehua took her to the county town.
The two bought a lot of red paper for the New Year, two jars of salt, three small cans of soy sauce, aged vinegar, and 200 kilograms of flour.
Just when Song Yuehua was still thinking about what she hadn't bought, Xiaoyu suddenly whispered, "Sister, is that person Erguotou?"
Song Yuehua looked in the direction Xiaoyu pointed, and saw Erguotou sneaking into a small alley.
"You watch the things here, I'll be back soon." After Song Yuehua gave the instructions, she followed.
Erguotou walked to a door, knocked three times, and then knocked twice. After a while, the door opened and a woman came out. She said a few words to him in a low voice, then went back and closed the door again.
Erguotou turned around and walked back, and bumped into Song Yuehua when he turned the corner.
ah!
Erguotou covered his chest and blamed, "What are you doing? You scared me to death!"
"What am I doing? I want to ask you what you are doing," Song Yuehua stared at him and asked.
"Private matter." Erguotou said perfunctorily and turned to leave.
Song Yuehua stood still and said slowly, "Knock three times first, then knock twice, right? If you don't tell me, then I'll go and ask."
