The fake daughter married into the mountains and had meat to eat every day during the famine

Song Jinsheng pushed it back, "You paid for the medicine, why are you giving it to me?"

Song Yuntang thought for a moment, then took out ten taels of silver and handed it to him. "Second brother can't work for three months, so take these ten taels. Consider the other twenty taels as my safekeeping for you. I'll give it to you when you marry my second sister-in-law."

Song Jinsheng couldn't persuade her, so he had to accept it as she wished.

……

For lunch, I had white rice, braised pork and wild vegetables.

The thick sauce is poured on the white rice and mixed, and everyone eats it with their mouths full of oil.

Xu Qingye put down his chopsticks and looked at Song Yuntang.

"Since you're already living in the manor, I'll go back today. If you have anything else, you can always come to Lushan Village to find me. I should be at home these days."

Hearing him say this, Song Yuntang suddenly felt reluctant to leave.

Although Xu Qingye was always silent when he was by her side, he gave her a great sense of security.

But the two of them haven't gotten married yet, so she can't always ask him to accompany her. Besides, her second brother has moved into the farm, so there really is no empty house for him to live in.

It's not appropriate to let them sleep in the same room.

"Okay, I'll ask my cousin to lead the mule to carry a few bags of food for you to Lushan Village later."

The person who went to Lushan Village with Xu Qingye was Song Zhiye.

In order not to appear too ostentatious, he only let the mule carry two bags of grain. The carriage would be completed in a few days. Song Yuntang thought about transporting a few more bags of grain on the day of the wedding.

"Second brother, this lock is for you. Remember to lock the house when you enter or leave from now on." Song Yuntang handed a lock to Song Jinsheng.

Song Jinsheng knew her concerns and agreed without hesitation.

There are fifty dan of grain. Even if two dan are transported away today, there are still forty-eight dan left. Rice is very precious. So much rice is worth dozens of taels.

……

Tomorrow is the agreed delivery day. Song Yuntang sorted out the seven hundred cans of shampoo that Chen had prepared in the past few days and put them aside, then led the mule to the town.

"Mudong."

Mu Dong heard the sound and ran out quickly.

"Miss Song, you're here."

Song Yuntang hummed, "My second brother had an accident yesterday. My cousin and you will go to town tomorrow. The carriage construction on the farm has been delayed, and it may take a few days. You should go and order a carriage first, so that I can go with you to the farm to transport shampoo tomorrow."

"What happened to Jinsheng?" Mu Dong looked worried.

"I was beaten and have injuries on my body. I need to recuperate." Song Yuntang said simply.

Mu Qiu also came up to the two of them and asked, "Is Brother Jinsheng seriously injured?"

"It's a bit serious, a fracture. I'm afraid he won't be able to do heavy work for a long time." Song Yuntang looked at them, "He can't go to town often during this period. My cousin will take his place to deliver the goods. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

After saying that, he took the mule to Baicaotang to buy the ingredients needed for sour plum soup.

Mu Qiu felt a little uncomfortable. She looked at Mu Dong beside her and said, "Brother, shall we go see Brother Jinsheng later?"

Mu Dong nodded in response, "He's injured so badly, we should go see him."

Then he raised his hand and rubbed Mu Qiu's head, "Okay, you guard the shop first, I'll go see if anyone has a carriage available tomorrow. We can't let Miss Song down."

After Mu Dong left, Mu Qiu returned to his seat.

She frowned and looked restless.

……

As soon as Song Yuntang arrived at Baicaotang, Manager Li and Tian Liu both took the initiative to greet her.

"What would you like to order today, Miss Song?"

Song Yuntang took out a list and said, "It's still these things. How is business lately, Shopkeeper Li?"

Shopkeeper Li smiled and said, "With Miss Song's care, things are naturally much better than before."

He looked at Song Yuntang.

"Since Miss Song has such amazing medical skills, why doesn't she open a clinic? You're wasting your talent."

Song Yuntang blinked.

"Manager Li wants to find a doctor?"

Shopkeeper Li stroked his beard and said, "Now that our Baicaotang has established connections with the Jiang family, we are not completely without foundation in the town. We do want to find a doctor to serve as our resident doctor. It was Madam Jiang's idea to ask for your opinion today."

Song Yuntang thought about it.

"It's not impossible, but my time is limited every day, so I'm afraid I can't see many patients."

Shopkeeper Li said quickly, "That's fine. One hour or two hours every day, or every other day, is fine. We can come according to Miss Song's schedule."

Song Yuntang nodded, "I'll think about it. After the 23rd, I'll give Manager Li a reply."

She has enough things on hand right now, and she is afraid that she can't take care of so many things. At least she can't delay getting married. The Xu family is very concerned about this matter, so she naturally can't fall behind.

"Why does it have to be after the 23rd?" Shopkeeper Li asked curiously.

Song Yuntang smiled and said, "I will get married on the 23rd."

Shopkeeper Li understood and raised his hand towards Song Yuntang with a smile, "I see. Congratulations, Miss Song."

"Thank you."

Song Yuntang took two large bags of ingredients for sour plum soup, paid eight hundred coins, and delivered the items to the tavern.

After these few days, the floor and stairs of the tavern have been completed, and starting from tomorrow they will start adding a new floor. After the roof is covered, they will start to decorate and repair the interior.

These all take time.

Song Yuntang put the bucket of ice water that she had left here last night on the mule's back, asked Song Mazi to help her lock the door of the tavern before leaving, and then led the mule back to the farm.

After Song Mazi finished his work in the tavern during the day, he had to go back to the farm to instruct Qiao Da and others on how to build a mule cart.

After dinner, we went back to Rongshu Village with them before dawn.

……

After returning to the farm and unloading the bucket of ice water, Song Yuntang suddenly remembered the chili seeds planted by the mountain spring.

I've been so busy these days that I forgot to go check on her. Luckily, Song Jinsheng has been helping to take care of her during this period, but he is injured now, so she has to take care of him herself from now on.

Song Yuntang took the bucket and went into the mountains.

The weather is already a little cooler now, and walking beside the mountain spring makes it even cooler.

Song Yuntang came to the small piece of land and jumped for joy when he saw the densely packed young seedlings that had just emerged from the ground through the fishing net.

“It actually sprouted!!!”

After watering the pepper seedlings and covering the net again, Song Yuntang went down the mountain and returned to the yard.

"Second brother, you didn't go home for the holiday yesterday. Will Mom and Dad scold you?"

As she spoke, she took a small shovel and kicked the wall to turn the soil, wanting to sow some of the remaining pepper seeds.

Song Jinsheng sat under the eaves, staring at Song Yuntang, not knowing what she was going to do.

"Changbai said that my parents looked unhappy when they heard that I wasn't going home for the holidays, but they didn't say anything. I guess they probably thought I didn't want to pay attention to them just like you do. But in my current state, it's really not convenient for me to go back. I'm afraid of scaring them."
