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

Just at this moment, the servant from the kitchen brought the food ordered by Song Yuntang in a food box.

When Lin Gengshi saw that she was about to leave, he looked a little cautious.

"Tang'er, how are you these days?"

Seeing his expression, Song Yuntang nodded generously.

"I am fine, thank you."

After saying that, he nodded slightly to Li Xiuran and Li Yuyao, then led Xia Ning, who was carrying a lunch box, to pay the bill and leave.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he never revealed his identity as the owner to the people in Mingyue Tower.

Seeing that his sister was still willing to pay attention to him, Lin Gengshi was delighted and couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips.

Li Xiuran was a little surprised when he heard how Lin Gengshi addressed Song Yuntang.

"Second Master Lin knows Doctor Song?"

The name of Xinglin Medical Clinic is now well-known not only in Anyang County, but also discussed by many young men and women in the provincial capital.

Even many people from the provincial capital went to Anyang County to seek medical treatment.

In particular, they recently donated 20,000 shi of grain to the disaster-stricken areas.

We provided both medical skills and food during this disaster, and I'm afraid the court will reward us handsomely after the incident is over.

Lin Gengshi followed the others all the way and remained silent behind his eldest brother. When Li Xiuran asked him, he nodded quickly.

"Of course I know him."

"What is the relationship between the two of you?" Li Xiuran looked puzzled, thinking that there was some story between them.

Lin Jingyao said first, "She is the adopted daughter of my Lin family."

Lin Gengshi nodded in agreement.

"It's just that there have been some conflicts with my family in recent years, and coupled with our previous misunderstandings with her that disappointed her, we've become estranged."

Li Xiuran understood.

No wonder Lin Gengshi called Song Yuntang that way just now.

After learning this information, he became a little more enthusiastic towards the two Lin brothers.

"As a family, if we treat each other with sincerity, we will eventually be able to make peace." He invited them to sit down. "Come to think of it, my mother had gallstones last time, and it was thanks to Doctor Song's timely intervention that she was able to recover."

Lin Gengshi sighed in his heart.

They did that before, and it was already good enough that Tang'er didn't hold a grudge against them.

It is probably difficult to turn hostility into friendship.

……

After Song Yuntang returned to the inn, he took out the food.

"Come and eat, it's still hot."

As she spoke, she reached for the bowl of soup from the food box.

Xu Qingye stepped forward and held her hand.

"Be careful, it's hot. Sit down and let me do it."

He first slowly checked the temperature of the soup bowl, then took a handkerchief from the tea tray and took the soup bowl out of the food box.

Song Yuntang touched the bowl doubtfully, and it was indeed very hot.

If she had touched it directly, she might have gotten burned and even knocked over the bowl of soup.

Smiling, she handed him the dishes.

"I asked Mingyuelou to cook some home-cooked dishes. I don't know if you like them, so try them first."

Xu Qingye took the chopsticks with a faint smile.

"Thank you for your trouble."

Song Yuntang glanced in his direction.

"There's no need for us to be so formal with each other. It makes us seem unfamiliar." Then he said, "Last year, when I first came to the provincial capital, I went to see the flower boats with A Rao. I think we went to see the lanterns on Moon Eve last year. Now that we're in the provincial capital, how about going out for a walk tonight? Just think of it as a way to relax before entering the exam hall."

Xu Qingye nodded.

"it is good."

After dinner, Xu Qingye continued to read, and Song Yuntang rested for a while in the house before going to Yujun Pavilion.

Ever since Song Yuntang revealed that Mu Qiu was Song Jinsheng's fiancée, their relationship has been extremely stable.

"Second brother, did you know that my parents came to urge Auntie to set a date for you and Mu Qiu?"

Song Jinsheng nodded.

"I already know. My eldest brother told me." He looked at Song Yuntang, "But I feel a little bad that my sister has to be busy with us on her birthday."

Song Yuntang smiled and patted his arm.

"Why are you saying all this, second brother? You are my brother. As long as you and second sister-in-law can live a good life, it's just a birthday. You can celebrate it every year. It's not a big deal."

Hearing her say this, Song Jinsheng was deeply moved.

"Sister, it's great to have you."

Seeing his red eyes, Song Yuntang joked, "Second brother, you must not drop the beans, or your second sister-in-law will think I bullied you."

Song Jinsheng burst out laughing.

"You are the only one who is poor."

After Song Yuntang joked with him for a few times, he started talking about business.

"How are the two branches opened in other places this year doing?"

Song Jinsheng thought about it and stood up.

"I'll go get you the account books for the past few months for a few shops. Take a look at them first and then we'll talk."

After saying that, he went to the backyard.

After Mu Qiu finished his work in the shop, he came to Song Yuntang.

After being the owner of Yujun Pavilion for several months, she has become more stable.

"Tang'er, are you here to accompany Mr. Xu to the Autumn Examination?"

Song Yuntang smiled and nodded, "My second brother calls him brother-in-law, but you still call him Mr. Xu."

Mu Qiu blushed.

"You haven't gotten married yet."

"There are only eight months left before the wedding. Have you started preparing your wedding clothes? If you encounter any problems, please talk to my second brother. He will find a way to help you."

A few days before her wedding last year, Xu Qingye reminded her that she had not prepared her wedding dress yet, so she went to a clothing store to have it custom-made.

It will be some time before Mu Qiu and his second brother get married, so he shouldn't be as flustered as she is.

Mu Qiu smiled and said, "My mother has already prepared it for me. She told me not to worry about things at home and to take care of the business in the shop for you. I thought she and my sister-in-law were busy at home, so I didn't pay much attention to these things."

"With Aunt Cui and sister-in-law taking care of it, there shouldn't be any problems." Song Yuntang looked at her. "Your brother left home right after getting married. Didn't your sister-in-law ever think of following him?"

Mu Qiu shook his head.

"She was worried that she didn't know how to do anything and that coming here would delay my brother and the shop's work. She also said that my mother wasn't feeling well and she was worried about her being alone at home, so she didn't come with me. My brother always went back to reunite with his sister-in-law when he was making deliveries."

It sounds like Mu Qiu's sister-in-law is filial and sensible, which is a good thing.

It’s still better for my aunt to choose a daughter-in-law.

Song Yuntang looked at her and said, "Go ahead and ask your sister-in-law if she's willing to work in the shop. Then, have your brother rent a small courtyard here and bring Aunt Cui over as well. It'll be better for the whole family to be together than not seeing each other more than a few times a month."

Mu Qiu was delighted.

"Okay, I'll talk to them then."

After thinking for a while, Song Yuntang looked at her again.

"There's one more thing. Although it's not appropriate for me to tell you, I was the one who facilitated your marriage to my second brother, so I still want to remind you."

Seeing her expression suddenly become serious, Mu Qiu was a little stunned and sat up straight.

"What...what happened?"
