Chapter 3: Asking for money

Su Qing's serious eyes looked at Song Xinshu intently, and said lightly: "It's okay, we are about to get married, and there is no need to thank you and me." ”

Hearing the word "marriage", Song Xinshu trembled, and combined with the other party's meaningful gaze...... Isn't it, he really likes me? But in the face of the person he likes, this man is too calm.

"It's presumptuous, why do you want to marry...... What about me? What Song Xinshu wanted to ask was actually why he was himself, there were a lot of girls to be married in the village, why did the other party choose himself with a bad reputation?

"Don't you need it?" Su Qing's words hit Song Xinshu directly, making her speechless.

Song Xinshu raised his eyes and looked into Su Qing's Gujing Bubo's eyes, and couldn't help but sneer: There are so many distressed women in the world, how many can you marry?

"Anything else?"

Song Xinshu hurriedly shook his head.

Su Qing saw that she was at a loss, and explained: "I'm about to get married, and there are still some things missing at home, so I have to go to the town to have a look." ”

Song Xinshu's cheeks were crimson: "I...... I don't need to add anything ......."

Su Qing said: "When you get married, you can't marry you casually." ”

Song Xinshu really blushed, "Then, then don't delay you to go to town, I'll go back first." ”

After saying that, she fled in a hurry, she really ...... Too bad.

After returning home, Lin Guifen, who was cleaning the courtyard, saw Song Xinshu walk in, stopped what he was doing and complained: "Girl Xin, why did you run out without saying a word, just help the family do something if you have nothing to do." ”

Song Xinshu responded, she knew that the Song family had broken their hearts for her affairs in the past few days, Lin Guifen's face looked even more haggard, her eyes were red and swollen, and she cried quietly last night.

She took advantage of the morning to sneak out also made Lin Guifen worry a lot, she lowered her head and took out the silver and handed it to Lin Guifen: "Mother, I just went to find Su Qing, this is from him, as a dowry, you take it." ”

Lin Guifen held a broom in his hand and stopped moving, and it took a long time to react and was stunned that he didn't take the silver, but instead raised the broom and slapped it on Song Xinshu's body: "You stinky girl, who told you to find Su Qing?" What have you done! There is nothing to do, but I went to the door to ask for a dowry, if you really get married, how will you live in his house in the future! ”

Lin Guifen scolded and cried, after all, Song Xinshu was too out of line to do this.

Song Xinshu didn't dodge, she swallowed the sour water in her stomach, held back the tears that were about to burst out of her eyes, and waited for Lin Guifen to rest her hand and calm down a little, before she said: "Mother, I know you love me, but I can't watch you sell the land for my marriage, the eldest brother and the second brother haven't married yet, and Xiao Mu went to the town to be a maid again, doesn't this make me a sinner of the Song family!" ”

Hearing this, Lin Guifen also burst into tears, and the broom fell to the ground, "Girl, my mother knows that you are a good boy, but our family has no relationship with Su Qing, you directly find someone to ask for money, how will you live with him in the future!" ”

"Mother, I won't marry the Fang family, when my father comes back, hurry up and get the land back, our family will have to continue to live in the future, it's nothing for me to marry Su Qing, I don't think he is an ungrateful villain, the rumors in the village are rumors after all, this silver will be returned when our family is more comfortable."

Lin Guifen frowned, and Song Xinshu continued: "The family can't collapse because of me, this silver is reserved for the eldest brother and second brother to marry, Xiao Mu will also marry in the coming year, Su Qing's reputation is not good, but he has not done anything hurtful in our village for two years, it is better than the Fang family kid who wanders around all day long and provokes a fishy body." ”

Lin Guifen finally couldn't help but turn around and wipe her tears, and Song Xinshu stepped forward and patted her mother's shoulder to comfort her silently.

Lin Guifen, who finally calmed down, heard the news that the Song family's father and son brought back in the evening, and once again couldn't hold back and sobbed, Song Xinshu stood beside her, thinking that her father and eldest brother really failed to take Xiao Mu back.

Song Xiaomu was bought by Xiao Liyang begging the rich lady, and now the family has repented, the young lady will lose face, and she is categorically unwilling to let go, the father and son of the Song family simply thought that they would be able to pick up people back after returning the silver, but they couldn't see Xiao Mu in the town until it was dark.

At this time, the atmosphere of the Song family was extremely depressed, even if it was expected to be such a situation, the Song family still couldn't accept it.

Song Xinshu didn't feel good in his heart, and he had a plan in his heart. Xiao Mu's matter must not be delayed again and again, and Xiao Mu will definitely not be able to come back after a long time.

The next morning, Song Xinshu found Su Qing again while the family was not paying attention, even if the villagers did not have a good opinion of this man, but Song Xinshu always unconsciously felt that he was not such an unbearable person, and Su Qing took out the silver so happily yesterday, and he was not a person who did not save his heart when he saw death.

Su Qing was still as calm as yesterday, and Song Xinshu thought for a moment and directly expressed his intentions: "Su ...... Big brother, my Xiao Mu went to the town yesterday to make a maid for the rich lady, she is still so young and enslaved, I want to ask you to accompany me to the town for a trip and let me see Xiao Mu. ”

"Xiao Mu is for my marriage, the Fang family wants my family to pay ten taels before they are willing to come to the door to propose, Xiao Mu and she will ......"

"You wait." Saying that, Su Qing closed the door, Song Xinshu thought that he had eaten the closed door, and kicked the stones at his feet in frustration, but he didn't expect the door to open after a while.

Su Qing locked the door and said to Song Xinshu, "Let's go." ”

Song Xinshu didn't react for a while, she was very flattered when she understood that the other party was the same to accompany her to the town to find Xiao Mu, she didn't expect Su Qing to act so decisively, and put aside distracting thoughts, she took three steps and made two steps and followed Su Qing towards the town.

The two were speechless all the way, because they were worried about Xiao Mu, Song Xinshu didn't talk about other topics to break the silent atmosphere, and when it was close to noon, they arrived at the rich Mofu in the big town.

Mofu is a rich man with a strong family background, the door post is a good red beam wood, the eaves are carved into evil beasts, and there is a small servant in front of the door to watch the door, which is completely different from ordinary people's homes.

Before they stepped on the stone steps, they were rudely bombarded away by the little girl, and even wanted to do something to Song Xinshu and a weak woman: "Don't look at what place this is, don't stain the lintel of Mofu!" Get out of here! ”

Song Xinshu took a few steps back and just thought of using other methods to ask them to be accommodating, but Su Qing behind him directly stepped forward and removed the little guy's right wrist: "Who do you want to go?" ”

"Shhh It hurts, it hurts! The little guy immediately wrinkled and begged for mercy.

Song Xinshu looked at both sides of the street, worried that there would be extraneous branches to dissuade Su Qing: "Brother Su, we have something to do, let's let go of this little brother first." ”

This little guy has been on duty in Mofu for many years, and he has some eyesight, although this man is clothed, he is quite generous in his gestures, and he can be neither humble nor arrogant in front of Mofu, not like an ordinary small farmer, so he flattered him and said with a smile: "This son, wait a minute, I will go to inform the family."

punched a jujube, in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, Song Xinshu grabbed the little guy and gave a few money, "Little brother, I'm sorry, my husband is in a hurry, don't take it to heart." ”

Song Xinshu stretched his eyebrows when he saw the little guy, and hit the railway while it was hot: "Trouble little brother, we are Xiaoli's fellow villagers, can you let us meet?"

She didn't dare to report her home, thinking that Xiao Mu had just entered the mansion and hadn't gained a firm foothold, maybe the little girl didn't recognize her, so she reported Xiao Li's name, and Xiao Li was an old man in Mo Mansion, and Xiao Li would give face no matter what she said.

"You are Xiaoli's acquaintances, hey, say it earlier, you wait a while, I'll go and call someone."

The little guy smiled toothily and closed the door, Song Xinshu turned his head to look at Su Qingkou and thanked him: "Brother Su, thank you for accompanying me here!" ”

Su Qing nodded and stopped talking.

The two waited for a while, and the gate of Mofu opened a crack again, and a maid poked out of it, "Are you here to find Sister Xiaoli?" ”

Song Xinshu nodded in response, the maid's nervous face relaxed, and said with a smile: "Now Miss asked Xiaoli to cut the flower branches, and I won't be able to see you for a while, if you have anything, I will pass it on from generation to generation, if you want to see Sister Xiaoli, you have to wait for some time." ”

"I'm sorry girl, let's wait for the time being, please tell Xiaoli and say that we are waiting for her here."

Song Xinshu was still unwilling to go back like this, she must have wanted to meet Xiao Mu.

"It's fine." The maid didn't say much when she saw Song Xinshu's resolute attitude, and she closed the door and disappeared after a few words.

In the middle of the day, the little maid let people open the door, and a tall woman dressed in the same costume appeared in the sight of Song Xinshu and Su Qing.

Xiaoli also knew Song Xinshu's intention, and said directly: "Uncle Song and Brother Song have already come yesterday, and there are miscellaneous things in the house, so I can't get out of it, and I hope Sister Xin will go back and apologize for them on my behalf." ”

"No, it's our family." Song Xinshu shook his head, Xiaoli is really a person who works in a big family, and her speech and posture are still different from ordinary peasant women.

Xiao Li turned to the person behind the door and said something, only to see a delicate and well-behaved girl poking her head out from behind Xiao Li and calling softly, "Sister." ”

Xiaoli whispered a few words in Song Xiaomu's ear and returned to the courtyard with a smile, Song Xiaomu said with a firm expression: "Sister, I know why you came, I won't go back with you, I want to stay here and do things for Miss." ”

Song Xinshu touched her head and said earnestly: "Xiao Mu, don't be rash, no matter what happens, you don't need to be a cow or a horse for others." Be obedient, go home with my sister, my father and mother and my eldest brother and second brother are looking forward to you! ”

"Miss is very good to her subordinates!" Song Xiaomu raised her voice a little, and seemed to disagree with Song Xinshu's wording, "I don't want to marry someone I don't like, if I am married by the elder, I might as well be a maid by the young lady's side for the rest of my life, and I don't have to be at the mercy of others at this age like Sister A!"
