Farmhouse Green Plum

Chapter 289 Farewell



Chapter 289 Farewell

Before, although she also felt that the 100 taels of silver that Chen Yunze gave to Yan Xing as a stepping stone was a bit too much, she also thought that as Chen Yunze was a wealthy businessman, 100 taels should not be a big deal for him.

However, Yuan Qing had already clearly refused, and he also secretly gave Yuan Shan a gold bracelet. Perhaps giving silver bracelets and silver earrings to girls like Yan Xing was just a cover, mainly for the purpose of giving the gold bracelet to Yuan Shan.

If I rashly and quietly gave Yuan Shan the gold bracelet, it would easily make people think too much, like it was a private transfer or something, and then Yuan Shan would probably be afraid to accept it.

But having seen the precedent of accepting the silver bracelet before, Yuan Shan would not be so scared if she was secretly given the gold bracelet.

"By the way, I haven't given you the money from selling the hairband last time." Luo Yanxing looked at the adults sitting in the yard, then looked at Song Tian and the others swinging on the swings, and quietly took out six cents and gave them to Song Ying.

Song Ying was stunned for a moment. "Sister Zheng also shared the money with you? Does she know how many hairbands we sold?"

Luo Yanxing nodded: "That day in the pharmacy, she gave it to me without telling Song Tian and the others, saying it was 78 cents."

Song Ying was stunned. When she pulled Song Yuan up that day, she roughly counted them and found that there were 15 complete characters and one that was written with only three strokes, which was exactly 3 coins.

Madam Zheng was combing their hair at the time. Even though she was so busy, she was still paying attention to the hairbands they sold and keeping a record of them in her mind!

This is really amazing!

After being shocked, she pushed the money back and said, "You don't have to share with me. You guys made all those hairbands and sold them on consignment at Sister Zheng's stall. I didn't do anything, so how can I share the money?"

"Why didn't you do it?" Luo Yanxing disagreed, "If you hadn't suggested going to Sister Zheng to ask for advice, Sister Zheng wouldn't have suggested selling together. Besides, Yunxiulou gave us the scraps of cloth more out of consideration for your face."

There are so many people buying clothes at Yunxiu Tower, and not everyone will give away rags.

Song Ying wanted to refuse, but Luo Yanxing said, "We sisters do business together, and friendship is friendship. Money is calculated based on merit. You can't break the rules."

Song Ying thought about it and accepted it. It was only six cents, which was a small amount of money for both her and Luo Yanxing and the others.

“Are you going to sell hairbands later?” she asked.

Luo Yanxing was a little hesitant. What happened that day had a great shock to them, especially when they returned to the clinic from the county government office and looked at the corpse covered with white cloth on the ground. Someone had just died, and if they went to those places to sell it, would they encounter ghosts?

"If you miss the Chinese New Year, you'll have to wait until Chinese Valentine's Day and Mid-Autumn Festival if you want to sell more hairbands." Song Ying saw her hesitation and reminded her.

"Let's go during the Lantern Festival." Luo Yanxing is very afraid of ghosts and he really doesn't dare to go recently.

"Aren't we going to play Lantern Festival?"

"We can sell hairbands while we play."

Song Ying glanced at Song Tian who was sitting on the swing. "Song Tian and the others knew that we were going to have a great time during the Lantern Festival, so they would probably clamor to go too."

Luo Yanxing was depressed and had to tell the truth: "Someone just died there, I'm afraid of encountering ghosts."

Song Ying: "...I stay nearby every day, and I'm not afraid, so why are you afraid? Besides, you didn't cause their deaths, so even if they really want to kill them, they won't look for you."

Luo Yanxing was not comforted. "That's a ghost. It's unreasonable! And ghosts are very stubborn. Whoever runs into one will be unlucky. Those who look for a substitute don't just look for those who have a grudge against them."

"You don't have to sell it on West Street. You can sell it on North Street, South Street, or East Street."

"I'd better discuss it with Sister Erni and the others first. Oh, by the way, Sister Xiaocui should be back tomorrow to pay New Year's greetings. We'll go to the county town in two days."

"Okay, whatever you want." Song Ying didn't force him, and asked curiously, "This is Sister Xiao Cui's first New Year after getting married. Shouldn't she have come back to pay New Year's greetings yesterday?"

Every family has its own order of closeness in terms of relationship, but Zhao Xiaocui is a new bride, so she should visit her parents’ home first to show her importance to them.

Luo Yanxing shook his head, "I don't know."

As the two were chatting, Song Yuan ran back and called out to Cheng Jiaming, "Cousin, your parents are leaving, so you should go back soon!"

Cheng Jiaming had no choice but to get off the swing reluctantly and prepare to go back.

Upon hearing this, Second Aunt Song also said goodbye to Tian Fangniang and the others, "Sister-in-law, I won't sit down either. I'll go back and see my eldest sister off."

What she meant was that she would not leave for the time being. Tian Fangniang understood and said, "Okay, you go back first, and we will play again tomorrow."

Since Aunt Song and the others were going back, Song Ying and Song Tian naturally had to go back to see them off, so they said goodbye to Luo Yanxing and the others.

On the way, she asked Song Yuan: "Have you told grandma?"

Song Yuan nodded: "Grandma agreed. After sending my aunt off, I will go to Wutong Village."

Song Ying felt relieved.

After returning home and eating the brown sugar eggs, the group sent Aunt Song and her family to the village entrance. Li held Aunt Song's hand and complained reluctantly, "You guys are like this every year. You come at noon, eat a meal and leave. If you do this again next year, don't come!"

Aunt Song didn't take her angry words to heart at all. Li said this every year, but never took it seriously.

She sighed and said, "Mom, we don't want to rush like this. Home is too far away. If we don't leave now, it will be late at night when we get home!"

"Then stay at home for one night! There will be a bed for you to sleep in!"

Aunt Song moved the pigs and chickens out of the house again because no one was looking after them and they would be stolen.

Li's face darkened with anger, but Aunt Song pretended not to notice and called Aunt Song, Uncle Song and others, "Sisters, brothers and sisters-in-law, come over in a couple of days to play. Haowa, Weiwa, Daya, Tianwa, Yuanwa, you guys should also come over to Aunt Song's house to play."

Uncle Song nodded: "Okay, we'll go there the day after tomorrow."

Children like Song Tian also expressed their willingness to go.

Song Ying found an opportunity to correct her, "Aunt, I changed my name to Song Ying."

Li glared at her and said, "Who hasn't seen you change your name? You keep talking about it every day. Your aunts are not used to it, so it's just a mistake to call you by that name."

Song Ying rolled his eyes, "I didn't say I called you the wrong name, so what? Can't I correct you?"

"How dare you talk back!" Perhaps because she was humiliated in front of her daughter and son-in-law, Li raised her hand.

Song Ying hid behind Li Hao who was standing next to her. Li Hao was much older and taller than them, and he completely covered Song Ying. Li couldn't jump over Li Hao to hit her, and could only stare blankly.

Aunt Song first glared at Song Ying and said, "You are a junior, how can you talk back to your elders?"

Then he advised Li: "Mother, it's New Year's Day, why are you arguing with a child like her?"

Without waiting for Li's answer, she immediately changed the subject: "Mother, if my second sister wants to stay at home for a few more days, let her stay. The day after tomorrow, she will go to my house with my second brother and his family, so that we can take care of her on the way.

The fruit town is far away, so they go back first and come to my house the day after tomorrow. It’s a lot of hassle to go back and forth.”
