Chapter 10 Two Groups of Guests

Since Song Zhiyuan came back with the medicine and said that his sister was going to take care of her health, Zhang came back from the field early every day, first boiled medicine for Song Shuyun, and then went to cook.

"Qiqi, do you see if this shelf is the one you said it is?" Song Zhiyuan took out a few pieces of wood and assembled them neatly in front of Song Shuyun, and Song Shuyun's eyes lit up.

"That's it, second brother, you're so amazing." Song Shuyun put the drawing board on it, and she found that the second brother also deliberately cut out two protrusions where the drawing board was placed, so that the main drawing board could be stuck and would not move.

Song Shuyun touched the easel and couldn't put it down, Song Zhiyuan turned around and went out not long ago and got something back: "Qiqi still like this?" ”

"It's ...... Inkstone? Song Shuyun was pleasantly surprised to touch the inkstone carved from pure wood, although the style is simple, but every place is very meticulously polished. Song Zhiyuan scratched his head a little embarrassed, and said in a low voice: "The last time I saw it in the medical hall, I learned to make one." ”

Song Shuyun rushed over and gave her second brother a big hug, both of which were very practical for her, and they were exactly what she needed right now. Song Zhiyuan saw that his sister liked it, and the corners of his mouth were also full of smiles.

Song Xiaosi shouted excitedly outside the door, and the brother and sister went out to take a look, and it turned out that the hen hatched the eggs that Song Shuyun bought before.

"Sister, why hasn't my goose come out yet?" Song Xiaosi looked at the chicks screaming all over the ground, and didn't understand why the goslings hadn't come out yet.

Song Shuyun didn't know, but she was afraid that her brother would be sad, so she still found a reliable reason: "Because the goose is bigger than the chicken, and its body is slow to form, maybe the goose will come out in a few days." ”

Song Shuyun didn't know if what he said was right, anyway, he bluffed Song Xiaosi, so that Song Xiaosi no longer bothered about why the little goose didn't come out.

Song Shuyun found out the pestle mortar, and the orpiment pounded by the eldest brother inside. There is nothing to do today, she wants to make a piece of colored ink, and now that the materials in her hand are complete, she will try to make a piece first.

First, boil the gelatin, and when it is almost cooked, pour the orpiment powder into it, and when it is almost fused, take it out and beat it. It's just that Song Shuyun's strength is a little smaller, and in the end, Song Zhiyuan took it and beat it into a billet.

As soon as the orpiment was pressed into the mold, the sound of a few people talking came outside, Song Shuyun stood in the courtyard and looked out, it was Song Ergu who came with a group of people, although he didn't know the purpose, but it must be no good thing.

The women beside Song Ergu were dressed extraordinarily, and they were wearing a lot of gold and silver jewelry, which looked like jewels.

"Is that her?" The woman raised her eyebrows and looked Song Shuyun up and down, and Song Ergu nodded a little flatteringly: "Yes, look at this appearance, I can't find a second one in ten miles and eight villages, it's not that I boast about it, the appearance of our family is one of the best in the city." ”

Song Shuyun hid behind the second brother, and the woman smiled when she saw that she was so timid: "The personality looks okay, and I like it, so I will go back and prepare for the next job." ”

Second Aunt Song nodded with a smile, Song Zhiyuan frowned, and said, "This lady, this kind of thing has not yet been known to the father and mother in the family, so I am afraid it is not appropriate to hire it directly." ”

"Oh? Do you know who I am? The woman turned around and looked a little unkind, but Song Zhiyuan was still neither humble nor arrogant: "I don't know, but no matter who you want to marry someone else's daughter, you should always discuss with her family, what's the matter with finding an outsider?" ”

Song Ergu's eyes widened, and she suppressed her voice and said, "Who do you say is an outsider?" I'm your aunt! ”

"Second aunt, you also said it, it's just an aunt. My father and mother are still here, when will it be my turn to be my aunt? Song Shuyun took the opportunity to stretch out her head and retort, because she saw that her father was back.

Song Ergu wanted to say something, but Song Dacheng had already entered the courtyard and said to her with a stiff face, "What are you doing again?" ”

"I, how did you talk to me?" Song Ergu replied with little confidence, Song Dacheng ignored her, didn't even look at the woman, and entered the courtyard.

The woman looked at her with contempt in her eyes, and said arrogantly: "You are the father of that girl, I am the eldest lady of the Chen family, and I have come to discuss family affairs with your family today." My son has been telling me these days that he has a crush on a girl, and I have sent someone to inquire, your daughter is good, and I will give more of this dowry, ...... that day."

"My daughter has already promised to marry someone, so Mrs. Chen won't say anything about the dowry or not." Song Dacheng immediately interrupted Mrs. Chen's words, which made everyone in the courtyard stunned.

Song Ergu was even more unconvinced, and said bluntly: "She doesn't go out of the door a few times a year, Xu family, who can ask for her?" ”

"Then it has nothing to do with you, the good girl is not allowed to have two families, Mrs. Chen, please go back." Song Dacheng turned around and entered the house after driving people away, Mrs. Chen felt that she had lost face, glared at Song Ergu fiercely, turned around and walked out of the yard and got into the carriage and left.

Song Shuyun and Song Zhiyuan glanced at each other, and then went their separate ways. Song Dacheng's words are just a pretext, outsiders don't know if they can still know? No one took this matter to heart, but Song Dacheng stood in front of the window as if he had something on his mind, and kept looking at his daughter who was busy working in the courtyard.

Today, the Song family didn't know what wind was blowing, so they sent away a Mrs. Chen, and a few carriages stopped at the door not long after. Song Shuyun sighed silently, who is coming back this time?

The person who came this time was still a noble lady, but this lady was dignified and a little heroic in her gestures, Song Shuyun asked her younger brother to come into the house and call her father out, and she stepped forward to greet her.

"I wonder who you're looking for?" Song Shuyun asked timidly, and a child came out from behind his wife, which made Song Shuyun a little surprised: "Chu Tianjue? What are you doing here? ”

Chu Tianjue pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "This is my mother, I came to thank you, and by the way, I have something I want to ask you." ”

Song Shuyun sighed, there were really not so many people sitting in the house, Song Zhiyuan went to the neighbor's house next door to borrow some chairs, so he could only let people sit in the big courtyard.

"I'm really sorry, the family is not well entertained." Song Shuyun was a little embarrassed, Mrs. Chu looked dignified, and she was incompatible with the small broken yard of her house.

With a gentle smile on her face, Mrs. Chu said softly, "It's not in the way, but we came to disturb us rashly and caused you trouble." ”

Song Dacheng is a man, it is not easy to entertain at home alone, and Mrs. Chu came to find Song Shuyun, so he found an excuse to go out. Song Zhiyuan and Song Xiaosi have been watching them talk from a distance, and Chu Tianjue has brought a lot of gifts this time, including food for Song Xiaosi.

Song Xiaosi held the jar of candied fruit and ate two of them and then stopped eating, carefully covered the jar and put it aside, Mrs. Chu caught a glimpse of some surprise - this child's tutor is surprisingly good.

"You are Shu Yun, I heard Jue'er often mention you, I heard that you saved him, I don't know what you saw that day?" Mrs. Chu's voice was very soft, Song Shuyun unconsciously relaxed, and responded: "I didn't see anything, I suffer from eye disease, and I can't see anything at night." When he heard a few words, he also told Chu Tianjue everything, and he didn't hide it. ”

Chu Tianjue looked at her with some surprise, he didn't know that Song Shuyun had an eye disease, and Mrs. Chu didn't believe it, but she didn't show it, and asked Song Shuyun to repeat it again, and then said a few words of thanks with a smile.

"I'm really sorry, it's time for my sister to drink the medicine, can you wait for her to drink the medicine?" Song Zhiyuan stepped forward and said apologetically, Mrs. Chu smiled and asked Song Shuyun to drink the medicine quickly, while Song Zhiyuan stayed outside to support the scene.

Chu Tianjue pursed his lips and seemed to hesitate for a long time before asking, "What's wrong with her?" ”

"It's just an old disease, I went to the town a few days ago and said that my little sister should be carefully recuperated." Song Zhiyuan still has a good impression of Chu Tianjue, and he has protected his sister several times.

Chu Tianjue lowered her eyes and didn't speak again, Mrs. Chu glanced at her son, and when Song Shuyun came out, she suddenly asked: "I heard that you are not in good health, it just so happens that my master knows some famous doctors, do you want to go with me to see a doctor?" ”

Song Shuyun's eyes were a little panicked, and he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No need madam, thank you for your kindness, I am all a minor illness, where do I need to trouble a famous doctor?" I appreciate your kindness. ”

Although Song Shuyun is timid, he is not a fool. Even if she couldn't guess Chu Tianjue's identity, she knew that he was either rich or expensive, how could she climb such a person?

"Don't see outside, you saved Jue'er, and your family took him in for so many days, you should be a guest in our house. If you ......"

"Don't force you, how is your aunt doing? Uncle Song's head seems to be injured, but are they bullying you again? Chu Tianjue suddenly stepped forward to interrupt his mother's words and changed the topic.

Mrs. Chu didn't have any displeasure in her eyes, but she looked at her son more meaninglessly.

Song Shuyun slowly exhaled in his heart and said softly: "It's okay, my father and mother are fine." ”

Chu Tianjue lowered his eyes and took out a box from his arms and threw it to Song Shuyun: "Thank you, this is not new, take it." ”

Song Shuyun pursed his lips and accepted the box, as if he remembered something in his mind, turned around and went into the room to take out the piece of black ink he had made, wrapped it in rice paper and handed it to Chu Tianjue.

"It's also my thank you, I made it myself, don't dislike it." Song Shuyun wasn't sure if Chu Tianjue would accept it, after all, he didn't look like a master who was short of money.

Song Shuyun was worried in his heart, Chu Tianjue seemed to be a little happy and raised his eyebrows, and put the ink block into his arms. Song Xiaosi on the side looked at it suspiciously, looked down at the mold in his arms, and hurriedly covered it tightly.

"Jue'er, the hour is almost up, let's go back." Mrs. Chu spoke appropriately, they had a long way to go, if they didn't have to hurry, I was afraid that they wouldn't be able to go back before the city gate.

Chu Tianjue nodded slightly, and Song Shuyun held the box to send them out of the hospital, and the two of them didn't say a word until the carriage left. After the person walked away, Song Shuyun opened the box, and there was a wolf pen with fine workmanship and a lot of value when he looked at it.
