Chapter 12 Robbing people, Song Shuyun's plan
Song Shuyun didn't rush to move the fifty taels, and after returning home, she often went up the mountain to look for colored stones, which were not found if she wanted to, and it took some effort. The Song family was stable for more than a month, and during this period, Song Shuyun successfully found a number of colored stones.
Song Dacheng's head injury healed quickly, and he could have continued to work in the field and strike iron. The two elder brothers of the Song family were much more relaxed about this, and Song Zhiyuan took advantage of the time to carve an inkstone and many objects, all of which were given to Song Shuyun.
Right now, Song Shuyun is sitting in the courtyard making colored ink. Last night was a rainy night, the mountain road was muddy and difficult to walk, and she was in poor shape due to the change of weather, so she could only stay at home honestly. What she was holding in her hand was the powder of cinnabar stone, which Song Qi still helped her mash, she only needed to boil the ingredients.
She had just waited for her eldest brother to come back to help beat her when a group of people suddenly came outside the door.
"That's her, kidnap her!"
Song Shuyun looked at the family who suddenly broke into the yard in front of him, turned around and was about to run into the house, but he didn't run and was dragged out by his arm.
"Who are you, let go of me, if you don't let me go, I'll let people report to the official, you are robbing the people's daughter." Song Shuyun struggled hard, and Song Xiaosi had already seen that the opportunity was wrong, and climbed out of the side wall to find his father and eldest brother.
Song Zhiyuan rushed from the side room when he heard the sound, and delayed the time with his family.
"Reporter? Could it be that our Chen family is still afraid? The family members laughed one after another, and Song Shuyun raised his eyebrows in recognition - it turned out to be someone from the Chen family.
Song Shuyun was dragged out of the courtyard, and there was a carriage outside the courtyard, and a lame young man came down from the carriage, it was Chen Sheng and Young Master Chen.
"Beauty, go back and marry me today." Chen Sheng walked up to Song Shuyun and pinched her chin, his eyes full of greed. Song Shuyun turned his head sideways and lowered his eyes and said, "Last time, my father made it very clear that I have a marriage contract and cannot marry another." ”
Chen Shengman was disdainful and said with a mocking smile: "Then tell me, who did you promise to in the village?" Young Master Ben personally sent someone to say. ”
Song Shuyun frowned slightly, his eyes rolled slightly, and when he was thinking of a way, he coughed violently, and Song Zhiyuan, who was looking at it, was anxious: "I haven't drunk the medicine earlier, no matter what you want to do, can you let my sister drink the medicine?" ”
Chen Sheng looked at Song Shuyun condescendingly and asked, "Are you not well?" ”
Song Shuyun suddenly had a flash of inspiration, pretended to cough hard, and then said weakly: "Lang Zhong said that it was just tuberculosis." ”
Chen Sheng's eyes were a little incredible, and the family next to him was a little flustered on his face, and said in a low voice: "Young master, this tuberculosis is contagious." ”
"You can't be young master of Yumoto, are you?" Chen Sheng still removed his hand in the end, and just looked at Song Shuyun with his eyes.
Song Shuyun's voice was still weak, glanced at the room and said: "There is still medicine left at home, if you don't believe it, you can take the medicine and ask, but I have been in contact with that medicine for a long time, if someone else is infected, it is no wonder that I am in." ”
In fact, Chen Sheng had already believed it at this time, after all, Song Shuyun seemed to be a person who had been sick for a long time, his face was pale and his body was weak, and he had no strength to speak. And the reason why Song Shuyun is like this is because there was a torrential rain last night, if he hadn't been taking medicine for so long, I'm afraid he would be sick again.
"Don't listen to her nonsense, she is just insufficient since she was a child, where is there any tuberculosis, if there is, she should have died a long time ago, and her family should have been infected." Second Aunt Song suddenly ran out of the shadows, with a smug face that pierced you.
Song Shuyun's eyes were slightly dark, looking at Song Ergu's triumphant face, a plan suddenly came to her heart, although it was not moral, but she couldn't be blamed for it.
"Second aunt, I know that you have always wanted to climb to your good in-laws, and I naturally want to do the same." As soon as Song Shuyun's words came out, Chen Sheng's eyes became a little more disdainful, Song Shuyun ignored him and continued: "But this is the Chen family, if I really pass on the disease, how can the Chen family let our Song family go?" ”
"If you want me to say that Young Master Chen is not an unreasonable person, I just think that our Song family girl is good, since I don't have this blessing, why don't I let Young Master Chen meet the two cousins? Maybe it's a match. In this way, the second aunt not only fulfilled her dream of marrying the Chen family, but also did not have to worry about her cousin's difficult life, isn't this killing two birds with one stone? ”
Second Aunt Song shook her head full of resistance, and Song Shuyun coughed and added, "Second Aunt, you shouldn't dislike Young Master Chen, right?" ”
Chen Sheng immediately squinted at him, and Song Ergu waved her hand again and again, explaining: "No, no, I didn't mean that......"
"That means that the second aunt also thinks what I said makes sense?" Song Shuyun floated out a sentence slowly, so that Song Ergu didn't know how to explain it if she wanted to.
Song Shuyun turned his head to look at Chen Sheng again, and saw that he had begun to waver, so he persuaded in a low voice: "Young Master Chen can't be greedy for beauty and put his life into it, right?" Besides, I'm only eleven years old this year, if I grow ugly in the future, won't Young Master Chen regret it? My two cousins are both fifteen or sixteen years old, and they have grown up in size and appearance, and they can't be wrong. ”
Chen Sheng thinks about it, this girl is still young, even if she is not sick, she will have to wait for a few years to take her home, if she becomes ugly, wouldn't it be a toss in vain? It's better to take someone of the right age, and you don't have to wait. The most important thing is that this girl's body and bones are really too bad, and he doesn't want to marry a troublesome spirit back.
So Chen Sheng looked at Song Ergu, which made Song Shuyun feel relieved, and a group of people went directly to Song Ergu's house.
Song Zhiyuan helped his little sister back to the house, and it happened that at this time, Song Dacheng, Zhang's and Song Qi all came back, Song Shuyun held the medicine and listened to the second brother tell his father and mother what had just happened.
"This ...... Those two girls are the eyes of your second aunt, so your second aunt has to hate you to death, how can this be good? Zhang looked at his daughter worriedly, Song Shuyun was not in a hurry, put down the empty medicine bowl and said: "Mother, I have never harmed the second aunt, she still leaves me a way to live, so what is there to worry about." ”
Song Dacheng slapped the table, with a little anger in his eyes: "Qiqi is right, if she doesn't come out to dismantle the stage, this matter will pass today, she was the first to harm people, no wonder Qiqi." ”
"Yes, I know all this, I'm just worried that life will not be easy after Qiqi." Zhang sighed, poor his daughter is the most sensible one, and she is forced to do so.
Song Shuyun said without worry; "Daddy, I was planning to move out of Pingyang Village, and I don't care if I offend or not."
"Move out?" Zhang couldn't close his mouth in surprise, Song Shuyun nodded, took out the color ink that he had made two days ago, put it on the table and said, "This is the color ink I made myself, and I sold it to Mr. Lang Zhong for fifty taels last time." ”
"I plan to sell him a few more yuan, and then build a house in Liuyang Village, I have asked my grandfather to find a good place, including a few acres of land with a total of thirty taels. My grandfather said that he had visited the place, and the place was not small, and when the time came, I would find someone to push the original house and build a new compound, and we would live there in the future. ”
Song Shuyun had already thought about moving, and Zhang's was not surprised when she heard that it was fake this time, she really didn't expect that the colored ink made by her daughter would cost fifty taels a piece. She turned her head to look at Xianggong, and what her daughter said depended on what he meant.
"Dad, the fourth brother is five years old, and the eldest brother and the second brother are not young, and they all want to study. Only by reading can there be a way out, so that you will not be looked down upon. In Liuyang Village, you can let them study with their grandfather, and they can also go to the school, you are close to Feng County, and you can also go into the city to find a blacksmith job, we can't stay in this ravine anymore, there is no way out for the rest of our lives. ”
Song Shuyun persuaded hard, but Song Dacheng didn't think about it so much, he agreed to move out, but he felt a little shameless to let his daughter support the family.
With just one glance, Song Shuyun could see what her father was thinking, and said with a smile: "Dad, my daughter is just honoring you and her mother in advance, and besides, my daughter has a lot of things to do in the future, why should the family be so clear?" ”
"What do you want to do?" Zhang opened his mouth to ask, Song Shuyun did not hide it, and said directly: "Grandpa said that it is too dangerous to sell color ink directly in large quantities, so I will only sell it to Lao Langzhong, and when I arrive in Liuyang Village, I plan to raise some poultry and circle a fish pond, and rely on these to maintain the family." ”
There is still a part of Song Shuyun who didn't say it, that is, she can also make money from the second brother's craft, but this matter is not certain for the time being, so she won't talk about it.
"My daughter has grown up and thinks long-term." Zhang was very touched, and felt that it was right to let her daughter be a housekeeper, she did have this talent and ability.
Song Dacheng said expressionlessly: "Just let go of what you want to do, Dad supports you." ”
"Mother also supports you." Zhang's hand holding Song Shuyun's hand was full of smiles and relief, and the children of the Song family said in unison; "We support you too."
Song Shuyun's heart was full of emotion, thinking that he would go to the county tomorrow to send colored ink to Lao Langzhong, and after getting the silver, he went directly to Liuyang Village, looked at the land, and left some money for his grandfather to find a craftsman.
Thinking about all this, Song Shuyun happily went out to paint, and asked the eldest brother to help beat the ink blank, she concentrated on holding the wooden gridded paint plate that the second brother helped make, and sat in front of the drawing board to paint.
This wooden lattice paint plate is a not small but short wooden block, and a few grids are taken out of it and carefully polished until smooth, each grid is enough for Song Shuyun to grind a piece of colored ink.
At the beginning, it was inconvenient for Song Shuyun to paint, so he thought of the paint plate in his previous life, but he didn't expect the second brother to be ingenious, and soon made it for her, not to mention, but also carved some patterns, which looked very chic.
It's just that the only drawback is that it is not easy to clean, and it is inevitable to replace it with a new one after a long time, so Song Zhiyuan directly made many more, with different sizes and patterns, and the number of grids varies, so that Song Shuyun can change whatever he wants.
Song Shuyun was immersed in the world of painting, and when the sky darkened, the ink block was also developed, this time she made a big one, thanks to Song Qi's strength, the color was still evenly smashed.
She took a knife and divided it in half, kept one piece for herself, and put the other piece into the box carved by her second brother, ready to send it to Lao Langzhong tomorrow.
Now that Song Shuyun has a lot of things at hand, Song Zhiyuan does it, she really thinks that she can rely on her second brother's skills to maintain a better life for the family first, and then come to make the business bigger when she can sell ink blocks openly.
