Chapter 158: Running away from home

Song Hong left a letter and ran away from home?

Song Ercai's brows furrowed and he asked, "What else does the letter say?" ”

Zhou shook his head, sighed and said, "Second brother, I think Brother Hong is probably going to the city, you say, should we go to the city to find it?" ”

Brother Hong will be fifteen years old after turning the year, and the son who has been raised for so many years runs away from home, and the Zhou family is still reluctant.

"Looking, where to look? Let's not mention whether he went to the city or not, even if he is, he is determined to leave, can you go back if you go to find it? In the end, it's all in vain. ”

Song Ercai analyzed a little bit, and Zhou thought about it. Since her son's face was revealed, she has long had no energy, and she has no strength to be busy with these anymore, her son is gone, the old man doesn't care, and her husband is not at home, she has no idea, so she can only go to the street to ask.

When the family was good, I felt that the second room was the enemy, but now that something happened, there was only the second room for people who could discuss it after thinking about it.

Otherwise, who will she talk to, and who will help her.

Zhou's appearance was depressed, and Song Ercai comforted him softly, "Sister-in-law, Brother Hong is not young, at this age, he can say that he will marry a wife earlier, since he has decided to take charge of his own future, you let him go, no matter how bad he is, he still knows the way home, and if he suffers outside, he will know how to come back." ”

Song Ercai was reasonable, and Zhou was not entangled anymore, and turned his head to ask about his youngest son.

"Brother Ming, is he doing well with you?"

Song Ming's family must have known that the Zhou family had not paid much attention to his youngest son before, and after the accident, the youngest son did not quarrel, and he also found the second child and got an errand.

Compared with himself, Zhou finally felt partiality and selfishness towards his children.

Brother Ming is right, "This family can't be completely ruined just because one person is studying, I'm not young, I can't wait a few years to marry a wife and have children, and Sister Qing also has to marry someone to prepare a dowry, all of which require money, and they need to be prepared to take care of."

You can't control the two of us, we take care of ourselves, there is no reason for my brother and sister to go to the eldest brother. We can't afford the blessing of a person who gets the Taoist chicken and dog to ascend to heaven, if this is the case, the big house is also divided, his brother and sister don't want land and money, as long as two bags of rations to live, each will take care of it in the future, life and death will depend on fate, and wealth will depend on heaven. ”

The eldest son ran away from home, and the younger son also had to cut off relations with them, and Zhou felt that there was no hope of surviving for the rest of his life.

"Sister-in-law, Brother Ming is very good. I don't talk much, I work hard, and coming here has helped me a lot. He's dusting up the new yard, do you want to see him? and I will send for him. ”

Song Ercai didn't know all kinds of complicated emotions in Zhou's heart, he just looked at this person's face was not good, and his expression was melancholy, and he wanted Song Ming to come over to meet, maybe he could enlighten and enlighten.

Zhou shook his head, "It's okay, anyway, it won't be long before the New Year's Festival, and then he will go home and see you again, this time I won't bother." ”

Zhou said as he picked up the small bamboo basket on the ground and prepared to leave.

"Sister-in-law, you sit down first, since you're here, bring some things back, and get some delicious food for your father and mother by the way."

Zhou heard him say that he wanted to wave his hand when he brought something, but when he saw the old couple mentioned it later, he sat down silently.

Song Ercai took half a tael of silver and gave it to Lu Bao and asked him to go outside.

Today, I was in a market, and it was convenient to buy anything, and after a while, Lu Bao came back with two baskets of things, including meat and fish, and half a bag of white noodles.

Inside the counter, Song Ercai also pulled a few feet of the emerald green fabric that the little girls liked, and asked Zhou to take it with them.

The food is for the old couple, and the fabric is for Song Qing.

Adults don't have new clothes for the New Year, but little girls can't, and when they see that their friends have new clothes to wear, they don't have them, and I'm afraid they don't even want to go out.

Zhou was moved with those things and walked away with red eyes.

When people left, Chang came in with the curtain, raised his eyebrows at Song Ercai and said, "Song Hong ran away from home?" ”

Song Ercai glanced at her, "Didn't you hear it all?" ”

The embroidery workshop has been on vacation, Chang's is naturally at home, I heard that Zhou is coming, I thought that the person was looking for trouble as before, just about to come out to fight, I heard the usual sister-in-law's voice like an aggressive rooster changed, it sounded completely different, and the tone of sighing was desolate and helpless.

She didn't see anyone, and just listening to those words made her feel different.

But she doesn't sympathize at all, what flowers bloom and what fruits they bear, this is the path she chooses herself.

Thinking like this, Chang Shi thought that he was dressed in bright clothes and didn't go out to stimulate people, but just eavesdropped behind the curtain.

Did Song Hong really run away?

Chang's deflated mouth.

deserves it, the troublemakers leave, and everyone's life is quiet.

Chang rolled his eyes, turned around and went to the backyard again.

In the hall in the backyard, Zhao and Chang Pingping were there, and in addition to them, there was also a matchmaker wearing a green cloth jacket.

Today, the embroidery workshop began to take a vacation, and it stands to reason that the two of them can go home directly, but Zhao's family made an appointment with Aunt Tian of the bun shop to see each other today, so he took his daughter and didn't leave, so he had to stay for half a day.

The matchmaker was invited by Aunt Tian, she had already taken a fancy to Chang Pingping, and the things she looked at were done properly, and she invited the matchmaker, so that even if the two sides didn't like it for a while, it could be regarded as giving the woman a face, and she wouldn't tell people outside.

Of course, Aunt Tian of the bun shop also has confidence in her youngest son, and if she has no opinion after seeing someone, she can directly discuss her relatives.

The matchmaker had already drunk two pots of tea here, and she also made it clear what the situation was in the Tang family.

To say that the bun shop diagonally opposite, the family conditions are actually not bad at all, the couple has two sons and two daughters, the eldest son is on an errand in the city, and the home is also in the city, and the younger son is currently there, and he was also a person who had studied at the beginning, and now the errand is not bad, and he will have to settle down in the city after no accident.

The two daughters are also well married, one is in the next town, and the other is married to the chief steward of a wealthy family in Pingyang City.

The couple is not short of money to spend, and they can't be idle when they sell steamed buns, and they don't want to go to the city to live, so they can't find something to do so as not to feel uncomfortable.

Originally, Aunt Tian and her youngest son also planned to find a girl in the city, but Aunt Tian took a fancy to Chang Pingping and felt that the women in the city were all young and not enough to keep a family.

Zhao also has confidence in his daughter, but he doesn't know how the young man is.

Several people sat at the table and chatted about the east and west, and after Chang came back, he also joined the team of chatting, only Chang Pingping, who was obviously a little absent-minded.

Near noon, Song Er came over and said that the son of the Tang family had returned and was helping in the shop.

This is what it means to let them look at each other in the past, although these rural places are not so particular, but these things can't be above board, they all pretend to have nothing to do and take a sneak peek, and after success or not, the elders will contact the matchmaker.
