Chapter 36: The Distance from Riches
For these changes, the happiest person is naturally Song Xingchen.
With her own ability, she really changed the status quo of the Song family.
Although the current Song family is still only a well-off class, they can live in a house that does not leak wind and rain, and they can make money, but they are still far from being rich and expensive.
Now the family can eat meat every day, and of course, Song Lu is reluctant to eat it.
But is that enough? How can it be.
During this time, Song Xingchen began to ponder the method of distilling and brewing wine, and purified the wine that everyone drinks now.
But he still doesn't know much about this aspect, and he doesn't know much about it, and he has tried several times and failed.
The Song family's plan to build a house is also in full swing.
When the house was halfway repaired, Song Sanshan took Song Mutou and planned to go to the town to ask a carpenter to make furniture.
Because there are more than a dozen houses that have been flipped out this time, and there are still a lot of places in the back, and when Song Yang and Song Mutou get married and have a baby, the Song family can basically achieve the level of one person and one room.
Even Yelang has a separate room.
Song Xingchen knew that he was going to the town to make furniture, and suddenly thought of the furniture he had in modern times.
The sofa, the Simmons mattress, is simply not too comfortable.
Now there is no sponge, but cotton wool, which is much cheaper than cotton, and their cotton jackets used to be made of cotton wool.
But although the cotton wool is fluffy and elastic, it is not warm, and they have been frozen when they wear such cotton jackets before.
But when used as a sofa, it is just right.
And the fabric of the sofa must be made of ordinary linen.
Song Xingchen hid in the room to write and draw, drew out the appearance of the sofa, and simply drew a tatami mat, intending to let the workers hit the ground a little when they hit the kang.
Not to mention the wardrobe, dresser, etc., etc., as long as it can be realized, I can't wait to move all the small furniture she has in modern times to ancient times.
The Song family was very surprised when they saw Song Xingchen's design, but their ability to accept it was limited, and they couldn't control what Song Xingchen wanted to make his house look like, but they didn't plan to follow suit.
Song Xingchen was disappointed in the end, and in the end, Yelang planned to make the room the same as Song Xingchen, and everyone naturally didn't say anything.
The people from the old mansion went to the Song family's new house several times, and every time they went, they gritted their teeth and went back.
Mrs. Song couldn't get up in anger.
Song Jin took the needle and thread to sew and mend the old clothes for the family, but when he thought that Song Xingchen's sisters and brothers were wearing all new clothes, and it was not because of the new clothes bought during the New Year, they were completely new clothes cut according to the season, and there was not a single patch on the clothes, especially Song Yang.
Because Song Yang went to the academy, his demeanor was naturally different from before, and his posture in a white robe made even more upright.
"Mother, these third brothers are too much of a thing, they don't recognize their father and mother, and as soon as they have money, they will immediately divide them from my family, as if they are afraid that we will divide his things."
Old Lady Song opened her eyes and glared at Song Jin.
Song Jin secretly shut up.
But Mrs. Song's eyes containing resentment were not at Song Jin's family, but at Song Sanshan's family.
"Jin, is your second brother's daughter also in her teens?"
Song Jinshi paused for a moment: "Mother, what are you talking about?" ”
"That idiot."
"Huh? You're talking about three girls, who are fourteen years old, but she's always been stupid and ignorant. ”
"Now my mother tells her what the kiss is."
Old Lady Song's eyes seemed to be quenched with poison.
Song Jinshi paused for a moment, who would he tell a fool to? Who could want it?
"Mother, don't be kidding, who wants that fool."
"Who said that I not only let that girl get married, but also marry a good man, do you believe it?"
The movement of Song Jin's hand stopped.
"Mother, who are you talking to the three girls?"
"Just the eldest son of that family."
Song Jin's hand shook, and the needle poked directly into the palm of his hand, blood oozed out, and his hand was confused.
"Mother, are you talking about Song Yang?"
Old Lady Song closed her eyes and nodded again.
Song Yang has now become the largest diamond king in the entire Songjia Village, and there is an endless stream of door-to-door proposals.
But they all let Song Sanshan and Song Jin push back on the grounds that Song Yang was preparing to gain fame and fame and was not suitable for getting married now.
But it still didn't discourage the enthusiasm of those matchmakers to come to the door.
This Song family has become a landlord, this Song Yang is a scholar, if he is admitted to Xiucai, he will be a talented lady, if he does not marry at this time, where will there be a girl in Songjia Village in the future.
Even the landlord who had hired Song Mutou's family in the past came to the door to propose, and it happened that their family had a daughter.
But nothing happened.
Song Sanshan and Song Jin were willing to let Song Yang get married early, but Song Yang was really unwilling.
Take 10,000 steps back, now with the wealth of the Song family, the girl of the official family does not dare to think about it, but the eldest lady who has grown up in the general portal family can still consider it.
Song Jin naturally knew this, not to mention others, she also thought that the third girl of her second brother was a fool, but the eldest girl and the second girl were also sixteen and fifteen years old, and they were not married, so if they married Song Yang, it would be like burning high incense.
But because of the bad things she had done, when her sister-in-law came to her, she didn't dare to respond at all.
Now this old pious woman is willing to marry the three girls in order to make a stumbling block for the family.
It's really a dead old woman, is it such a waste of such a good family business? No, she has to go back and discuss it with her sister-in-law.
And Ye Lang was reluctant to go to the academy after following Song Yang for three months, but he was willing because Shen Yi came to collect herbs that time.
That Shen Yi gave him a bad feeling, how could he rest assured that Song Xingchen was alone.
Fortunately, after that, Shen Yi was not looking for an excuse to come to the Song family.
However, Yelang became interested after discovering the vat of wine that Song Xingchen had brewed.
"Xingxing, how did you do this wine?"
The taste was a little strange, but it was clearly the taste of plum wine.
"I wanted to purify the wine, but it didn't work, and it became like that." The taste of her distillation is very much like mixing alcohol in plum wine, although it is vigorous, but it makes the wine indecent.
Fail!
Yelang said: "It should be that when you purify, you only consider purification, and you don't take into account that plum wine will become weaker, so this result will be caused." ”
Song Xingchen was stunned for a while holding the wine, and suddenly realized: "Is this so?" ”
Song Xingchen's eyes lit up, and Yelang also smiled.
With Yelang's help this time, Song Xingchen quickly purified the new stall of wine, tasted it, and grinned spicy, but the aroma of the plum wine did not decrease at all, and more importantly, the softness of the plum wine did not damage much.
"It worked, Yelang, we succeeded, yes yes, great."
Because Song Xingchen was excited, he directly hugged Yelang and began to jump.
Yelang was happy when he saw Song Xingchen, and he was also happy.
"Why? What are you doing here? The screams came, Song Xingchen and Yelang looked over, and saw Old Lady Song and Song Jin walking in from outside.
Old Mrs. Song frowned, and her clothes couldn't wait to eat Song Xingchen's appearance.
"I don't know shame at a young age, and I lose money and goods......"
"Hmph."
Song Xingchen has nothing to do with Mrs. Song now, and before she finished speaking, she snorted coldly and turned around and entered the house, Yelang followed, and then locked the door.
Mrs. Song gritted her teeth and went to knock on the door, but there was no one.
The Song family originally only had Song Xingchen and Yelang, and the Song family's new house was about to be closed, and as soon as the top was closed, they could speculate and live in the house.
Today, after the Song family finished making tofu, the family went to the new house to heat the pot, and Song Xingchen was naturally the only one left in the old house.
But no matter how the old lady Song and Song Jinshi knocked on the door, Song Xingchen just didn't open the door, but hid behind the door and smiled secretly.
Yelang naturally followed Song Xingchen.
The passers-by saw it again, and saw that Mrs. Song was banging on the door as if she was desperate, and the door had begun to sway and crumble.
And now the popularity of the Song family is so good that there is always something that can't be seen.
"Old lady Song, if you shoot that door again, it will fall."
"That's right, the Song family is not here, and it's useless for you to shoot."
Old Mrs. Song crossed her waist: "Nonsense, Song Xingchen is the one who lost money." ”
The two men immediately showed a look of disdain.
"You didn't choose this time to come, did you?"
Then the meaning is obvious.,Specially pick the time when the adult is not there.,What do you want to do?
Song Jin's family didn't have the same shouting as before, and immediately went to explain: "We are here to find the third brother and the third brother and sister." ”
"Yo Yo Yo, where are your three brothers and three sisters now, you are not a father."
said that Song Jin's family has no face.
Mrs. Song was annoyed: "What's the matter, he Song Sanshan is in heaven, and I am also his mother, but I want to see if he recognizes me as his mother." ”
Mrs. Song does have a certain advantage from this commanding height.
The two men just snorted coldly, stopped talking, and turned to leave.
Seeing this, Song Jin also stopped Mrs. Song: "Mother, let's come back tomorrow." ”
Mrs. Song couldn't help it even if she was angry, so she had to leave with Song Jin's family.
Song Xingchen opened the door at this time, looking at the backs of Mrs. Song and Song Jin's frowning.
"Yelang, you say, what are they doing here?"
Something is wrong with Mrs. Song, something is wrong with Song Jin.
Where have I seen them speak so politely before, it's hell.
If something is wrong, there must be something boring.
Yelang thought for a long time before asking.
"Xingxing, do you know what the situation of Song Jin's mother's family is?"
Song Xingchen frowned and shook his head.
"Then wait until you come back and ask my father and mother to talk about my conjectures."
Song Xingchen waited for that time, and he was very anxious.
"Yelang, do you know something?" Song Xingchen looked at him with distrust.
