Chapter 491: Poor Brother Zhuzi
"Mother, where is Brother Zhuzi right now? Didn't you bring Shizuka? ”
Song Jingshu asked hurriedly.
Liu Shi glanced at her in surprise, and after seeing the worry in her eyes, he shook his head silently, "He is busy making a series of aftermath such as customizing a shroud for his father-in-law, what am I bringing him to Shizuka Mansion for?" ”
Besides, at that time, Xiao Wu was also by Song Zhuzi's side, and Liu was not easy to say.
"It's a pity that I didn't have any silver with me at the time, otherwise I could have helped him!"
Liu sighed guiltily.
Song Jingshu's eyes flickered, and she asked, "You, when did my mother meet Brother Zhuzi?" ”
"Less than half an hour!"
Liu replied.
Calculating the time, Song Zhuzi may still be on the side of the custom-made shroud.
Song Jingshu had a plan in his heart, took out a few pieces of broken silver from the drawer, and locked it again.
After greeting the Liu family, Song Jingshu went out.
There is only one shop in the town that sells these incense, candles, paper money, and shrouds and coffins.
Song Jingshu's guess was right, Song Zhuzi was still squatting outside the shop with his head downcast, and his red eyes could be seen from a distance. It's like a lost child, looking dazed and helpless.
And Xiao Wu was not by his side.
Song Jingshu stepped forward quickly, "Brother Zhuzi! ”
Song Zhuzi was crying sadly, and when he heard Song Jingshu's voice, he hurriedly raised his head.
He squeezed out a reluctant smile on his face, but it was more sad than crying, "Jingshu, why are you here." ”
"This place is very unlucky, so it's better for you to come less on weekdays."
Song Jingshu heard the concern from Song Zhuzi's advice, and his heart was sour.
Without saying a word, she took out a money bag and handed it to Song Zhuzi, "Brother Zhuzi, my mother has already told me about your family!" Why didn't you make it clear to me yesterday? I don't know what's wrong with you......"
As he spoke, Song Jingshu's face was a little guilty.
She paused, and then said, "If you encounter difficulties, you just come to me, what are you polite to me?" ”
Looking at Song Zhuzi's eyes red from crying, squatting on this cold and windy street, the tip of his nose was also red from the cold, and his lips were blue.
Song Jingshu's heart was even more sour.
When she was a child, she had no brothers and sisters, and only Song Zhuzi was the best for her.
Treat her as a sister and take her up the mountain and down the river to play crazy.
Later, since Song Zhuzi married his daughter-in-law, the two didn't talk much. After all, they are all old enough to know how to avoid suspicion.
Without waiting for Song Zhuzi to speak, Song Jingshu was stunned and stuffed the money bag into his arms, and deliberately said with a straight face, "Brother Zhuzi, this time, you are obviously treating me as an outsider!" Do you remember that I was your sister? ”
Song Zhuzi was stunned, and the money bag in his hand was like a hot potato.
He subconsciously wanted to return it to Song Jingshu, but when he heard Song Jingshu say such a thing, he had to slowly put away the money bag.
"Jingshu, thank you, your great kindness, I, I will never forget."
Xu was very excited, Song Zhuzi stretched out his hand to wipe his tears, and stood up staggeringly, choking more and more.
"Brother Zhuzi, don't be angry if I tell you the truth."
Song Jingshu looked at Song Zhuzi's thin and shabby clothes, which was in stark contrast to the radiant appearance of Xiao Wu's family when he came to her house some time ago, so he said in a deep voice, "That woman in your family is really too disagreeable!" ”
"I have a brother in my own family, and I have to let your son-in-law come to see him off, and it's the first time I've seen it!"
Xu was afraid that Xiao Wu would come back suddenly, and when she heard Song Jingshu's words, she didn't dare to do anything to Song Jingshu, for fear that she would vent her anger on Song Zhuzi's head.
So, Song Jingshu took Song Zhuzi into the teahouse on the side.
It was much warmer in the teahouse, and Song Zhuzi drank two cups of hot tea in a row, and then he stopped shivering.
"Jingshu, I know what you want to say."
Song Zhuzi's eyes flashed with tears, and his face was extremely helpless, "However, she is my daughter-in-law in the end." ”
"In order to give birth to a little bamboo, she went to half a life! I swore in my heart that I would treat her well in this life. ”
Seeing Song Zhuzi's lips trembling, Song Jingshu frowned, and said angrily, "Your intentions are good!" But she just relies on your heart to be unscrupulous and not take you seriously! ”
"Brother Zhuzi, if it weren't for the fact that Xiao Wu's sister-in-law came to me some time ago, I wouldn't have rejected you yesterday."
Song Jingshu kept a straight face, and her tone was very serious, "You and my brother and sister are not outsiders, how can I be indifferent to your situation?" ”
"It's just that Xiao Wu's sister-in-law is really not like that! I can't stand it either. ”
As she spoke, she sighed helplessly, picked up the tea in front of her and took a sip, "Have you eaten?" ”
"I've eaten it!"
Song Zhuzi hurriedly replied.
It's just that a "cooing" sound came from Song Zhuzi's stomach, and this sound was obviously out of place.
Song Zhuzi's face immediately turned red and he lowered his head in embarrassment.
Song Jingshu sighed helplessly again, went to the counter to settle the tea money, and took Song Zhuzi back to Jingxiang Building.
Before leaving, Song Jingshu accompanied Song Zhuzi and went to order a coffin and other items.
The shopkeeper recognized Song Jingshu and was stunned to give Song Zhuzi a 20% discount. And patted his chest to ensure that their shop was responsible for sending things to Song Zhuzi's father-in-law's house, and they didn't need Song Zhuzi to carry the coffin back!
Under normal circumstances, this kind of thing will not be cared for by other shops.
After all, except for the people in the town, the mountain roads in the villages near the town are very steep.
Or, you add your own money, and the coffin shop will take care of the door-to-door delivery;
Or, you can carry it back on your own!
For this reason, Song Zhuzi was even more grateful to Song Jingshu.
After returning to Jingxiang Building, Song Jingshu asked Liu to prepare a meal for Song Zhuzi, and sat opposite him and admonished, "Brother Zhuzi, you have to keep an eye on it in the future." ”
"You can save the remaining silver today, don't let Xiao Wu's sister-in-law know."
Otherwise, I am afraid that this silver will fall into Xiao Wu's pocket and be squandered by her.
"Didn't you say you wanted to buy New Year's goods? These pieces of silver are sufficient. ”
Hearing Song Jingshu's words, Song Zhuzi nodded hurriedly and responded one by one.
Liu made three dishes and one soup, Song Zhuzi not only ate the dishes cleanly, but also ate three bowls of white rice in a row before stopping the chopsticks, and said embarrassedly to Song Jingshu and the others, "I, I didn't eat anything in the morning, let you see the joke." ”
Liu couldn't help wiping his tears, but Song Jingshu frowned, "Why didn't you eat breakfast?" ”
"Where did Xiao Wu's sister-in-law go again?"
Song Zhuzi's eyes dodged, and he replied helplessly for a long time, "She's going to lunch." ”
"What?"
Song Jingshu's face suddenly sank, he stood up and slapped the table heavily, "It's really unreasonable!" ”
