Chapter 154 Back to the Village
Chapter 154 Back to the Village
When Song heard the doorman say that Song Sanniang had arrived, she happily asked someone to invite her to her courtyard.
This was the first time Song Sanniang entered her courtyard. They had always met in the dining room before.
A tall banyan tree was planted in a corner of the Song family's yard. Stone tables and chairs were placed under the tree. There were pleasing flowers and plants on both sides of the house.
Entering the house, the middle of the room is also the reception area. Her room does not have a high desk like Jin Zhaohua's room.
She placed a large, beautifully carved Luohan bed in that position, and a small table of the same color in the middle of the bed.
There was no tea set on it. Song had placed an embroidery stand on it and was embroidering something with her needle.
There is a round table under the Luohan bed, but it is not decorated with mother-of-pearl or anything like that. It is a simple Huanghuali wood round table with tea sets placed on it.
Seeing Song Sanniang coming, she asked her to sit on the other side of the bed so that she could talk to her.
When she learned that Song Sanniang came to inquire about Master Hu, Song laughed and said, "You are really impatient, how can you be so quick?
Even if it's a letter, there has to be some communication. I'll send someone to inform you when I get the letter."
Song Sanniang heard this and explained, "Aunt Song, I'm not anxious. I just happened to have something to do, so I came to ask about it. The most important thing is to come and see you."
Hearing this, Song smiled and said, "From now on, you should call me Grandma Song. Otherwise, if you call my daughter-in-law and the others aunt, it will confuse the generations."
Song Sanniang hesitated and said, "But they are still very young. They look like sisters to me. Calling them aunt makes me feel old."
Song laughed again when she heard this and said, "Then you and the old man are like close friends regardless of age. This is really a mess."
Song Sanniang thought for a moment and replied, "Let's talk about each other. It's true that the aunts and sisters are too young, not like Master Tan."
Song covered her mouth and laughed when she heard this. "Don't let the old man hear you, or he will be dissatisfied with his age again."
Song Sanniang also laughed. The Song family sent someone to call the female relatives to come and chat with Song Sanniang. Song Sanniang was suddenly surrounded by beauties of all kinds and felt very happy.
This time she did not stay at the Tan family for dinner, because she was in a hurry to go back to the village with Song Ersao and the others to start preparing for the new house.
When the date is set, the store will be closed for two days so that everyone can go back to attend the wedding and go home for two days of vacation.
When Song Sanniang and her companions returned to the county town, the mother and daughter first sent Si Niang and her companions to Xindian.
Then she and Song Ersao went to the dental shop to find Master Huang and rented a donkey cart. Master Huang took them around the county to buy all kinds of things.
First, I ordered a batch of green plants and had them delivered to my new home in Songjia Village. Then I went to buy various decorations, kitchen supplies, daily necessities, etc. By the time I finished shopping, it was already dark.
Master Huang went to the new store to pick up Si Niang and her two friends. The store was just closing, so Song Dazhi came to pick them up. The group of people and two cars headed to Songjia Village.
When the car stopped at the door of Song Laoer's house, the puppy in the house ran out barking, and Song Laoer followed out after hearing the sound.
Seeing that it was Song Ersao and the others, he came out happily, and then everyone moved the things to the yard together.
After Master Huang cleared the carriage, he hurriedly drove the donkey back because the city gate would be closed in about an hour.
Mrs. Song and her friends bought some meat pies for dinner. They didn't have time to eat in the car, and now they are starving when they get home.
The fourth wife and the other two had already eaten in the store, so they did not eat. Second wife Song and Third wife Song sat on the stools and started eating.
"Eat slowly, eat slowly, why are you two starving yourself like this?" Seeing the mother and daughter wolfing down their food, Song Lao Er was really worried that they would choke.
After the crazy hunger in their stomachs was dispelled by the food in their stomachs, the two of them were finally able to stop eating.
Mrs. Song sighed, "I haven't been this hungry in a long time. Next time, I must eat before doing so many things."
While the mother and daughter were eating, Song Lao Er had already gone to look through the things they bought, and couldn't help but praise them, "You two are really thoughtful. I didn't think of buying these things at home these two days, and I was busy doing nothing."
Although he said so, in fact, he cleaned the new house carefully by himself, which was not an easy job.
Song Laoer was busy cleaning the new house and didn't go to fetch water. There wasn't enough water at home for washing. Now that everyone was together, there wasn't enough water. So he planned to fetch some water.
Si Niang and Wu Niang volunteered to take out their Mid-Autumn Festival lanterns to light up Song Lao Er, who did not refuse, so the father and daughter went to fetch water.
Song Ersao and her husband recovered after a short rest. Song Ersao went into the kitchen to light a fire and boil water for a bath. Song Sanniang went into her room and lit a candle.
There weren't many things in the room when Song Sanniang lived there before, and now that some things have been moved away, it's even emptier. Song Sanniang touched the bed and the table, and there was no dust at all. Song Mei was really attentive.
Song Sanniang opened the rolled-up blanket, shook it, and then spread it out again.
Now in the village, people have to wear two layers of clothes at night to avoid feeling cold. It seems that we need to make a few new quilts at home, and everyone should also prepare new winter clothes.
The bedding we brought with us when we separated from the family, although we all got new ones after the family made money, those were for spring and summer. Now it’s time to prepare for winter.
Thinking of sleeping in a warm, thick new quilt that has been exposed to the sun in winter, Song Sanniang is no longer afraid of the coming of winter.
There is no snow here in winter, but it is cold and damp, and it rains from time to time. Song Sanniang shuddered at the thought of sleeping in this bamboo house in winter.
Song Laoer and his two companions came back carrying water. The voices of the three fathers and daughters talking could be heard from time to time in Song Sanniang's room, giving off an inexplicable sense of warmth.
It feels different from the shops in the capital city. Even if this place is shabby, it is still their home.
