Yesterday, Xue Zhuang went to Qili County, saying it was to buy a house, but he didn't bring any package when he came back.
Xu Yan'er thought of what her mother-in-law's sister-in-law had just said, and her heart suddenly began to jitter.
I had misunderstood Xue Zhuang and Song Liyun before, but everything was fine for half a year.
But since she was pregnant with a child for several months and could not serve a man, could it be that Xue Zhuang couldn't hold it in anymore?
Xu Yaner became more and more worried.
She had heard people say before that wealthy families would prepare concubines and aunts for their men when their wives could no longer serve them.
Xue Zhuang didn't know that she was thinking wildly again, so he just said casually: "I forgot to take it back yesterday and left it in the club. I only remembered it today."
Xu Yan'er felt something was wrong, but she didn't dare to ask. She had been beaten several times by Xue Zhuang for talking nonsense in the past.
Later, Song Liyun rescued her, and she no longer dared to talk nonsense, so she could only keep it in her heart.
When Xue Zhuang finished eating, Xu Yaner packed up the dishes and entered the kitchen uneasily.
The Xu family's sister-in-law coaxed her son to take a nap, and then sneaked into the kitchen again. She didn't help Xu Yan'er wash the dishes, but only ate melon seeds with her hands in her hands: "Yan'er, did Mr. Xue admit it? Did he go to the Song family? Also, did he go to the Song family?"
Have you opened that small package and seen it, and what’s inside?”
Xu Yan'er glared at her: "Don't talk nonsense in the future. That was the cloth that Brother Zhuang bought for me. Brother Zhuang has been in charge of the guild hall, so he didn't go to the Song family."
The Xu family's sister-in-law clapped her hands and exclaimed at the top of her voice: "Oh, you really don't know about such a big thing. I saw it with my own eyes. Not only did I see it, but others also saw it."
She remembered what the man who greeted the young man pulling the cart on the road was saying about raising rabbits. Her eyes suddenly lit up and she leaned into Xu Yan'er's ear and said, "Is there someone in the Song family named Brother Ping or Xiao An?"
Xu Yaner was slightly stunned. Of course she knew that Song Liyun had a younger brother named Xiaoan who was not very smart and was stupid. He rarely came to town.
My sister-in-law has never been to Ruijin Town, how does she know about Xiao An?
Xu's sister-in-law saw that Xu Yan'er's expression was wrong, and she immediately laughed and said: "I said I saw it with my own eyes when I went to the door of Song's house today. If you still don't believe it, Brother Ping and Xiao An know that."
Xu Yaner was silent...
In the side room, the Xu family's sister-in-law fiddled with the silk cotton and said: "You are really stupid. Look, this cloth is as big as a palm, and there is this cutting edge. I don't know where the cloth shop sells it."
Where did Aunt Xue find the rags from and send them to you?
I said, you are pregnant with his first child after all. If the money is not spent on you, where else can the money be spent? At least one piece of this kind of cloth should be bought for both adults and children to wear."
Xu Yan'er recalled in her mind that when her sister-in-law was pregnant with the baby, she picked out the best food and used everything in the house. Now that she is pregnant with the baby, she only has this little bit of cloth.
Suddenly feeling extremely aggrieved, I turned around and left the house without asking for the cloth, and went back to the main room.
When Xu Yaner's sister-in-law saw that Xu Yan'er was gone, she quickly put silk cotton on Xiaobao's body and said: This material is really good, and she can make Xiaobao an undershirt to wear.
After dinner at Baolin Juli, Song Liyun gathered Yun Niang, Han Ming and Song Zhenping together.
She mentioned that military households could not buy land in the town.
Song Zhenping was a little anxious. He also wanted to buy land. Now that the law stipulated that military households were not eligible, he was immediately discouraged: "Yun'er, if you can't buy land, the land outside our courtyard is also wide. How about moving the trees?"
How many rooms will be built?
We can also plant less vegetables in the backyard and build two side rooms, so we don’t have to go to town to buy land.”
Song Liyun shook his head: "The fruit trees outside the courtyard were planted for Black Gold. They cannot be touched. We will plant more trees in the future. We don't need to add any more houses in the backyard. There are horse pens and rabbit houses there, which is already crowded enough."
In fact, the Ji family's former stable was just outside the courtyard. When the bandits came, it was immediately burned down. Now Song Liyun doesn't want to build it.
After knowing from Manager Wanda that military households could not buy land casually, Song Liyun asked Han Ming to inquire in the town.
Han Ming said solemnly: "Xue Jun's household is looking for Wang Liu's household registration in the town to buy land. If the girl can trust me, use my household registration."
Wang Liu in the town was a lonely old man in the Jinglao Hall. Xue Zhuang gave him two taels of silver now and a good coffin later, and Wang Liu agreed to hand over his household records.
Now Han Ming also has to hand in household registration, but there are no conditions.
"Ah, why do you have a household registration?"
Song Liyun was a little surprised. She only thought that Han Ming was a runaway slave and he probably didn't have a household registration yet. She didn't expect that he already had one.
It turns out that Han Ming is not stupid either.
After the last tragedy in Ruijin, the government checked the remaining population and registered him in the household registration of Ruijin Town, completely severing his identity as a fugitive slave.
It's just that he has been a runaway slave for a long time, and has long since become accustomed to not mentioning his personal affairs.
Originally, he wanted to survive in Broken Gold Town until death, so Han Ming didn't take it seriously when he got the Broken Gold Town household book.
Now that he heard that Song Liyun wanted to borrow money from his account to buy land, he dug it out from his luggage.
She didn't expect Han Ming's household registration to be so easy to obtain, but Song Liyun was not reassured. She asked seriously: "Uncle Han, what do you need?"
Everything needs to be exchanged at equal value. Song Liyun has always believed that free things are actually the most expensive, so it is better to clearly mark the price early and everyone gets what they need.
If you don’t want anything now, you may want more.
What's more, Han Ming is not his slave.
Han Ming lowered his head with a sad face. He took a deep breath and said, "What Wang Liu wants is two taels of silver and a coffin after his death.
I just want to live with you girl Daping. When I get old and can no longer run away, I will be rewarded with a coffin."
Song Liyun frowned: "Uncle Han, you are not yet forty years old. If you meet the right person, you can marry a wife and start a family. Why do you say such depressing words?"
She did think so. When Yun Niang first arrived at Baolinju, she wondered if they could understand each other and form a partnership if they were similar in age and had the same experience.
The end result was that she thought wrong.
The bitter gourds on the same vine are more bitter together, and there is really no sweetness at all.
Usually, although Han Ming and Yun Niang live in the same Baolin residence, one is outside the house and the other is inside, they don't even want to see each other.
Han Ming shook his head: "I don't want to anymore!"
Song Liyun did not dare to say any more. If she said that Han Ming could still have children, she would be afraid of making Yun Niang sad.
At this time, Yun Niang was already crying silently: "Girl, I am the same, as long as she doesn't dislike her, I am willing to live with her all my life.
My family will also be taken care of by the girl, and I only need a coffin after my death."
Handing over your household registration book here is like holding your ID card.
Although there is no bond of sale, it is almost like a slave, and it is difficult to leave quietly.
This is also a show of loyalty by the two of them!
Song Liyun quickly calmed down and said to Han Ming and Yun Niang with a smile: "You two are from the Song family, so don't talk about asking for a coffin.
In the days to come, as long as I, Song Liyun, have a mouthful to eat, you will inevitably have a mouthful of soup to drink."
