Farmhouse Green Plum

Chapter 189 Zhang Yang

Song Ying couldn't sit still any longer, so he stuffed the Chongyang cake he had taken a bite of into his mouth, closed the lid of the wooden box, put it in the backpack, and stood up with the backpack on his back: "Let's go, let's hurry up, I have to go back and tell Yan Xing and the others that they should be careful whether they go into the city or to the mountains in the future.

No, we have to be careful even in the village. This is a wanted criminal who is related to officials from two provinces! Who knows how crazy he can be! "

Yuan Qing stood up and followed him down the road, comforting him as he walked: "Don't be too nervous. The investigation is very strict now. Even if he is still in Qingshui County, he dare not do anything to you."

"It's hard to say. People as crazy as them are capable of doing anything! Besides, we are just ordinary peasant girls. As long as it's not an obvious murder, the village officials won't even report it if something happens!"

"Just because you didn't report it to the authorities doesn't mean they won't pay attention. Think about it from Tang Tingbin's perspective. He finally managed to escape, and the most important thing right now is to avoid the authorities' search.

Even if I happen to see you, I should think about whether this is a bait set by the government."

Song Ying thought about it seriously and felt that it made sense, so he was no longer so panicked. "I still have to go back and tell Yan Xing and the others. The situation has been tense recently, so the fugitive doesn't dare to retaliate. But if time goes on and the government becomes lax, there's no guarantee that he will take action."

Yuan Qing nodded and further consoled him, "During the interrogation, they asked a lot of questions, and they may not be able to conclude that your arrest was related to you. Moreover, your information was not disclosed, so he still doesn't know where you are from."

Song Ying felt more relieved and decided to go back and tell Luo Yanxing and the other two to go into the city as little as possible and not to attract too much attention when they did.

At noon, after saying goodbye to Yuan Qing at the fork in the road, Song Ying rearranged the only four Chongyang cakes left in the wooden box, silently reviewed what he should say and do after entering the village, and then walked towards the village entrance with his head held high.

After turning the corner, before reaching the village entrance, I saw Aunt Meihua plowing the soil in the fields by the roadside.

"Aunt Meihua, you're turning the soil." Song Ying smiled and greeted her loudly.

Aunt Meihua looked up and saw a little girl in a green dress standing on the side of the road and smiling at her.

She felt that she looked familiar, but was not sure how to recognize her. She put her hand on her forehead to block out the glaring sunlight, stretched her neck to take a closer look, and said in surprise, "Isn't this Song Ying? You look like a city girl in this outfit. If you hadn't been carrying a backpack, I wouldn't have recognized you."

Song Ying chuckled, "Aunt loves to joke, it's just a change of clothes."

"I heard from your grandmother that you went to work as a temporary worker in the mansion of Shen Zhuangyuan." Aunt Meihua looked at Song Ying and became curious. "How much is the salary for a temporary worker in the Shen mansion? Oh, this outfit must have cost a lot of money."

Song Ying boasted: "Of course not, I bought this dress at Jinyi Pavilion. The shopkeeper said it was made of Lu silk, and one piece of cloth cost more than two taels of silver!"

"Two taels for one horse!"

Aunt Meihua was so shocked that she dropped her hoe and walked to the side of the road. She wiped the mud off her hands, but found that it was not clean. Then she looked at Song Ying's exquisite new dress and did not dare to touch it.

She said, "Raise your hand and come closer so I can take a good look at what kind of cloth costs more than two taels of silver a piece!"

Song Ying did as she was told and said, "This dress is expensive not because of the fabric, but mainly because of the labor cost. Look at the workmanship, the stitches, and the embroidery. This was embroidered by the best embroiderer in the city!"

Aunt Meihua doesn't know how to embroider, she just thinks that the dress has bright colors, exquisite structure, and beautiful embroidered patterns, just like the real thing.

"How much is this?"

"5 taels."

"5 taels?!" Aunt Meihua's eyes almost popped out of her head in shock again. Children's clothes require little cloth, and one piece of cloth can make several sets of clothes.

A piece of Lu silk costs just over 2 taels of silver, but this piece of clothing costs 5 taels! This is too expensive!

"Song Ying, have you been cheated? One piece of cloth can make several sets of clothes, and this one piece of yours can buy two pieces of cloth. Even if you make money, you shouldn't use it like this, you have to save it."

Aunt Meihua became even more curious and asked again, "How much did the Shen family pay you?"

"Aunt, you misunderstood. This dress was not bought by me, but by my master!" Song Ying shook her body proudly. "Not only the dress, but also the pearl flower on my head was bought by my master at Jin Man Lou!"

"Master?"

"Yes, I went to Shen's house not to do odd jobs, but to be a medicine boy for my master.

Shen Zhuangyuan's wife, Princess Shun'an, was in poor health, so she hired a doctor in her mansion. The doctor was very busy and needed a medicine boy to help him. However, there were many female relatives in the inner courtyard of the harem, so the medicine boy had to be a girl.

There are very few girls who know medical skills. The Shen family searched for a long time but couldn't find a suitable one. Later, Brother Lin from the clinic found out and recommended me to them. "

Aunt Meihua felt that her brain was a little confused, "Shun'an County Princess?"

"Oh, she is the daughter of Prince Hui, the cousin of the current emperor."

"Wow! A relative of the emperor!" Aunt Meihua was stunned. "Shen Zhuangyuan married the emperor's cousin! Oh my, this is incredible!"

"Yes," Song Ying responded and quickly brought the topic back to the topic, "Aunt, I won't talk to you anymore. I have to go back to see my grandma and the others. The cakes won't taste good if they get too cold."

"What kind of pastries?" Aunt Meihua became curious.

"I was given a few pieces of Chongyang cake made by the Shen family. They were so delicious! I heard that the chef who made the cake used to be a chef in the imperial palace. I tried a piece and it was so delicious that I quickly brought the rest back to my grandma. I wanted her to have a taste of what the emperor eats!"

"The imperial kitchen of the palace!" Aunt Meihua was shocked when she heard it. She stretched her neck to look into Song Ying's backpack. "I haven't seen the food in the palace yet. Can you show it to me?"

Song Ying hesitated a little, looked in the direction of the village, and finally said, "Okay, but Auntie, you have to hurry up, I have to go back quickly."

As she spoke, she put down the backpack and lifted the cloth covering it. Aunt Meihua saw at a glance the meat, tofu, and pastries wrapped in oil paper inside.

"Is this also a way to honor your grandmother?" she asked.

"Yes, last time I was ignorant and made my grandma angry, so I bought some things to make amends to her. My grandma has had a hard time. Not only did she raise my father and second uncle, she also took care of their children. Song Tian has been so naughty since he was a child. She must have spent so much effort on him."

Aunt Meihua looked at her suspiciously. Is this still the stubborn Song Ying who kept yelling that the Li family was unfair?

Is this a sexual transition?
