On the wedding day, I was broken off, so I remarried his uncle
Chapter 88: Well-placed
Song Xile hid in the car and successfully avoided the sight of Nanny Li.
After the group walked away, she couldn't help but touch her pounding chest.
Fortunately, nothing happened and Nanny Li, who was beside the county magistrate's wife, didn't see it!
If she finds out, I'll have to think of an excuse!
The three of them rushed to the wonton stall to meet up with Song Cheng. Old Song took the reins from his youngest son, and the group drove the donkey cart out of the city.
In order to avoid running into acquaintances in the city again, Song Xile stayed on the donkey cart and did not come out.
It was not until they left the city and the donkey cart turned onto a country road that Song Xile finally got out of the cart and sat next to his eldest brother!
She looked back at the donkey cart behind her and asked Song Ping in confusion, "Why, didn't you see my second brother?"
Song Ping smiled and said, "Your second brother is still working at the carriage and horse shop! Dad couldn't bear to spend money to hire a driver, and renting a carriage requires a deposit, so Dad temporarily pawned your second brother there!"
Song Xile was stunned, obviously he had not expected this to happen.
She hadn't thought this matter through!
Seeing his sister remained silent, Song Ping comforted her, "It's OK. We just need to stay there for a while, and we can save 20 coins. When we send the bean seeds home, we will go and exchange them for him!"
It’s worth it now!
"By the way, big brother, when we go back later, let's take a detour and go back through the path behind the mountain instead of going through the village entrance!"
Their home is at the end of the village, so to go back from the village entrance, they have to cross the entire village.
By then, I’m afraid many people will see them rushing back by car.
Song Xile felt that before the news of the high-yield bean seeds spread completely, they should try to keep a low profile to avoid people making associations later!
Song Ping nodded and understood what his sister meant.
When they were about to enter the village, Song Ping deliberately drove the donkey cart into a small road.
Old Song, who was following behind, had the same idea. He had originally planned to send his youngest son to give the two of them some instructions, but it seems that is not necessary!
Old Song guessed that the furtive manner in which they moved the bean seeds just now might have made people who didn't know the situation think they were stealing!
Moreover, the back door of the county magistrate's house was closed and no one came out, which proved that the county magistrate did not want to publicize the matter!
Old Song, who is well versed in human nature, thought he had figured out the intention of his superiors. He knew that the matter of the high-yield bean seeds must be kept strictly confidential, and he must not let the county magistrate down!
The group went around the back of the mountain and took a shortcut back home.
With the hilltop as a cover, Song Xile was not worried that the villagers would discover them.
After going around the top of the hill, the first house you see is hers.
The two little kids, who had no idea what was going on, were sitting outside their mud courtyard wall. They blinked their eyes and looked towards the village with anticipation. "Big brother, when do you think Grandpa and the others will be back?"
Big Head scratched his head and said, "It will be soon!"
Since their aunt and her family left, the two little guys have been sitting at the door waiting, very much looking forward to the sesame cakes that their aunt promised to bring them!
The two of them didn't know that the aunt they were thinking about had already gone through the back door!
Song Ping drove the donkey cart to the backyard and then stopped it.
He walked to the outside of the fence, moved the simple fence aside, strode across the vegetable garden and knocked on the door.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were sitting in the main room doing needlework, looking outside from time to time, "I wonder if your father and the others are doing well? Can they go back now..."
The sound of knocking on the door interrupted Yang's unfinished words!
Xu stopped what she was doing, glanced at the backyard, and asked, "Who is it?"
"It's me, open the door quickly!"
It was her husband's voice. Xu immediately dropped the work in her hands, stood up and opened the door. "Why did you come back from the back?"
Before Song Ping could answer, Old Song, who was following behind him, came in carrying a large bag of bean seeds and said, "Make way."
Several people who were blocking the back door moved aside one after another.
Song Ping didn't have time to explain to her mother and wife, and hurriedly turned around to unload the bean seeds from the truck.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were stunned when they saw the big bags of bean seeds being carried home. They were stunned!
The two little kids who were sitting in front of the door looking forward to it, when they heard the familiar voices at home, they jumped up from the ground and ran back home like firecrackers!
The two of them blinked their big eyes and looked at Song Xile expectantly.
Song Xile was stared at by the two little guys, and she immediately came to her senses. She smiled and said to them, "Go find your uncle quickly. Shaobing is with him!"
When the two children heard this, they immediately cheered and ran to find their uncle, "Uncle, uncle, aunt said they brought us some pancakes!"
Song Cheng, who was still guarding the donkey cart at the back, took out the remaining six sesame cakes from the carriage and handed them to his two nephews who ran up.
"Take it home and eat it, don't block the way here!"
The two of them couldn't wait to stuff one in their mouths, and obediently took the rest and went home!
Here, Old Song and his son had just unloaded the bean seeds and were asking their daughter when the county magistrate would come to get the bean seeds.
Over there, Yang led her daughter-in-law to bring up the food!
"Okay, let's eat first. We can talk about anything after dinner!"
After they left, Yang caught a chicken and killed it. Now the food was heating in the pot, waiting for them to come back so that they could have a meal!
The father and daughter stopped talking and sat down at the dinner table!
Braised chicken, stir-fried bamboo shoots with bacon, steamed eggs, and other dishes were not many, but they were already the best food her family could produce!
In the past, they might not be able to eat these for two or three months at home, and only when there were guests at home would her mother be willing to take out meat and vegetables!
Looking at the two little nephews’ staring eyes, Song Xile knew that they must be reluctant to eat it on normal days!
Then I looked at my brothers and sisters-in-law who just lowered their heads to eat the rice in front of them, but did not reach out to pick up any dishes.
Song Xile felt even more upset!
She reached out and put some meat in everyone's bowl, "Why are you just eating rice? Brother, sister-in-law, you guys should eat too!"
"You eat, you eat, this rice is delicious, I can eat two big bowls without any vegetables!"
How could they dare to eat as much food as they wanted at home now? Only when my younger sister comes back, my mother lets them cook some dry rice. They can’t eat it on other days!
Song Xile sighed in her heart. It was impossible to change her mother's idea of saving in such a short time!
She thought that she would have to come back more often in the future and bring back some food from time to time!
After dinner, Song Xile reminded her father to remember to plant the seeds she brought back first.
As for the bean seeds they brought back, there were a total of 1,800 kilograms. 300 kilograms were kept for their own family, and someone would come to take the remaining 1,500 kilograms when the time comes!
"From now on, no matter who asks, where did these bean seeds come from? Dad, Mom, Big Brother, Big Sister-in-law, you all have to remember that these bean seeds were planted by you!"
"We must speak with one voice. If we make a mistake, not only will the land that was supposed to be given to our family be lost, but it will also ruin the county magistrate's business. I'm afraid the county magistrate will blame us then!"
After hearing this, the Song family nodded repeatedly!
After finishing the matters he needed to handle, Song Xile followed the donkey cart. Song Ping first sent his sister to the village entrance, and then drove to the city gate to meet his father!
