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

"Why do you trust me?" Song Yuntang was curious.

After her parents passed away in her previous life, she dealt with relatives who wanted to take her family property while studying medicine. She spent a lot of time alone and did not dare to trust anyone, always feeling that they had ulterior motives.

Therefore, she has always put all the chips on herself and taken people and things around her lightly.

This is also the reason why she was able to leave the Song family without too much psychological burden.

Xu Qingye had known her for no more than twenty days, and the number of times they had met could be counted on two hands. She didn't think he would understand her so quickly.

Xu Qingye looked ahead and said in a gentle voice, "From what I've observed, you're a calm, rational, and principled person. You wouldn't do anything impulsive easily."

Song Yuntang smiled, "Wasn't my behavior today impulsive?"

Xu Qingye shook his head. "It wasn't an impulse. It was a long-planned move."

As the two were talking, Mu Dong led them to the first yard, which was a little closer to Mu Dong's home. The main structure of the house was made of wood, and there was a big tree in the yard. Both houses were a bit old, but the items inside were complete. The rent was 150 wen per month.

After seeing this place, the three of them went to another yard a few steps closer to the town center.

There are also two rooms. This courtyard is made of blue bricks. It should have been empty since it was repaired. There is nothing in the room except the doors and windows. If you rent this place, buying furniture may be a relatively large expense. The rent here is also higher, one hundred and eighty cents a month.

According to Mu Dong, this courtyard was originally built by Uncle Qin and his wife, who lived with their son and daughter-in-law in the suburbs. Because they had a bad relationship with their daughter-in-law, they wanted to live separately to feel more comfortable. However, the market was not good this year, and the man in the family could not find a job. Since they had no money to buy furniture, the house has been empty for half a year after it was built.

I thought that instead of leaving it empty, I might as well rent it out and collect some rent.

Song Yuntang looked at Xu Qingye, "Brother Xu, where do you think it's suitable to rent?"

Xu Qingye analyzed the situation objectively, "If you live alone, a blue brick and tile house would be safer. The previous yard had everything, but the wooden structure itself is not as solid as the blue brick house, and the big tree in the yard is a big hidden danger."

Song Yuntang nodded, agreeing with Xu Qingye's analysis. She simply didn't want to spend too much time looking for a yard, so she asked Mu Dong, "When the landlord couple has money, will they take this yard back and live there themselves?"

"Definitely not in the short term." Mu Dong leaned closer to Song Yuntang and whispered, "Uncle Qin's daughter-in-law is newly pregnant. She's been vomiting all day and has no time to care about family matters. Uncle Qin has to go to work, and the couple are busy taking care of their daughter-in-law and grandson."

Song Yuntang understood that as long as there wouldn't be any trouble in the short term, he could live there for a year or half a year first, and then move to another house after getting familiar with the town. The furniture he had bought could be moved out by then.

"It's here, how do you pay the rent?"

Mu Dong hurriedly said, "Uncle Qin said it would be paid every two months."

"it is good."

If it is paid every two months, that would be three hundred and sixty coins.

For her, although the expenses are not small, she can still afford it if she grits her teeth.

As for furniture, there are definitely more opportunities to make money in the town than in the village. It is summer now, so she can buy a bed to live in first, and then buy more pieces according to her preferences when she earns money.

Mu Dong looked up at the sky and said to the two of them, "Let's go back and eat first. This yard is empty, so it's definitely not suitable for living here tonight. Miss Song, you can stay with my sister for one night. Tomorrow I'll take you to Uncle Qin's house to pay the rent, and then we can buy your things and move in."

"Okay." Song Yuntang looked at Xu Qingye, "Brother Xu, have dinner before you leave."

Xu Qingye nodded and followed the two back to Mu Dong's house.

When the three arrived, Cui and Tian had already cooked the meal: a pot of brown rice porridge, a dozen brown rice cakes, and a large bowl of egg soup with a few egg drops floating in it.

Cui said somewhat embarrassedly, "There's not much food at home, and the food sold outside is expensive, so let's just make do with what we have."

Song Yuntang smiled and said, "It's already very good, we are not picky."

After dinner, Xu Qingye told Song Yuntang that he would come back to help tomorrow, and then he went back to Rongshu Village while it was still daylight.

In order to repay the Mu family for the meal, Song Yuntang took Cui's pulse and wrote her a prescription, asking her to get the medicine herself to regulate her body.

Although Cui agreed, she was afraid of spending money and did not take the matter to heart. Mu Dong, on the other hand, was more cautious and quietly took the prescription and went out to get the medicine after dinner.

After washing up quickly, Song Yuntang slept in the same room with Mu Dong's sister Mu Qiu.

The Mu family has a total of three rooms. The other two are shared by Wu Wei and Mu Dong, and by Tian and Cui.

Mu Qiu is fifteen years old, only half a year younger than Song Yuntang. She is a relatively introverted girl. The two of them lay together, greeted each other, and then there was no sound.

Song Yuntang slept on his side near the outside of the bed, looking at the dark sky outside, feeling a little worried. He didn't know whether Xu Qingye had arrived at Rongshu Village.

Although his health has improved in recent days, he has not yet fully recovered. If he comes back so late, she will be guilty of a serious crime if something unexpected happens.

If she had known that he would come again tomorrow, she should have refused.

……

Banyan Tree Village.

When Song Jinyuan and Song Jinsheng returned home after finishing their work, they found the atmosphere at home a little solemn. They could faintly hear their mother sobbing in the main room.

The two looked at each other and hurried into the house.

"Mom and Dad, what happened?"

Zhuzi, standing by the wall with a serious face, said, "Sister is gone."

Song Jinsheng was stunned when he was carrying the new medicine box home and planning to give it to his sister.

"Where did Tang'er go?"

"He said he was going to the town, and I'm afraid he will settle down there in the future." It was Zhuzi who answered again.

The two brothers were full of questions.

"Why did you go to town all of a sudden? What happened?"

After Zhao tearfully told the whole story, the two brothers fell silent.

Song Jinsheng put down the medicine box. "Mom, I think this matter is really hard to judge if you really want to say what is right or wrong. My sister hasn't lived with us since she was a child. It's normal for her to have different ideas. We grew up in Rongshu Village, and some of our ideas are deeply ingrained in us. Even if we were to wear silk and satin, we would still look out of place."

"So, my sister's departure might not be a bad thing. She didn't say she wanted to cut off contact with me. If I miss her, I can still go to town to see her."

Although he was reluctant to leave his sister, now that things had happened, he could only comfort Zhao Qiao'e.

"I'm going to ask Mazi for a day off tomorrow and go to town to see Tang'er."

Zhao Qiao'e wiped the tears from her face and said, "You don't know where she went, where are you going to find her?"

Song Jinsheng raised his eyebrows slightly. "Didn't mother say that Mr. Xu followed her to the town? I'll go to the private school later and ask Mr. Xu and I'll know."

Song Jinbao, who had been silent all this time, nodded.

"It's good to go and take a look."
