Chapter 326 Take You Back to Rongshu Village
Xu Qingye nodded. "Although Yang Linyuan doesn't have any concubines right now, he does have a maid. This is normal in a wealthy family. After all, he's already 21 years old. No one knows whether he'll take a concubine after he gets married."
Song Yuntang's expression became strange.
In terms of age, it’s not a big deal. Jiang Surao is seventeen years old this year, so Yang Linyuan is only four years older than her.
"No wonder A'rao's attitude was unclear just now. Tongfang and concubine are just different in name, but their actual functions are the same. Anyone would feel uncomfortable if they were in her place."
If they get married, the maid will probably be promoted to concubine.
Most men will ultimately feel a little differently about the first woman they have.
It would be fine if he was a quiet person.
If you don't behave yourself, I'm afraid you will suffer at the hands of the mistress when she comes to the mansion in the future.
Xu Qingye gently stroked her head and said, "Your injury hasn't healed yet, so don't worry about other people's affairs."
Song Yuntang let him support him and walked into the house.
"Xu Qingye, there's something I think I need to tell you."
The man hummed, "What is it?"
Song Yuntang sat on the edge of the bed, a look of embarrassment on his face. "Although I was captured by bandits and taken to Funiu Village, they didn't exonerate me. They were attracted by my medical skills and took me away to help the village's wife deliver a baby. After the delivery, the bandit leader paired me with a man, but I didn't let him succeed. I knocked him unconscious and escaped."
Xu Qingye's expression remained unchanged. "I know this even if you don't tell me."
Song Yuntang looked at him in surprise.
"How did you know?"
The man smiled, his deep eyes looking straight at her, "Your personality seems free and easy, but in fact it's not. If something really happens, I'm afraid I'm the person you want to see but don't want to see."
Song Yuntang's cheeks burned when he looked at her. He turned his head to the side and said insincerely, "Who wants to see you?"
She couldn't let Xu Qingye realize that she was the one who fell in love with him first.
Xu Qingye smiled gently.
"Okay, Tang'er doesn't want to see me, it's just that I'm worried about her."
Song Yuntang frowned, stretched out his hands and pinched his cheeks in annoyance, but did not use much force.
"You are not allowed to laugh."
Just at this moment, Jiang came to the door with the boiled medicine.
"Tang'er, I've warmed up the medicine for you. It's just right for you to drink..." She looked up at the scene in the room and turned away without a second thought. "Eh? Why is this medicine still a little hot? I made a mistake. Let it sit for a while before bringing it back."
Song Yuntang quickly retracted his hand.
I almost forgot, there are many people watching me at home.
Xu Qingye raised his hand to touch his nose to hide the smile on his lips.
"I'll bring you the medicine."
……
After staying at home for four or five days, I felt less dizzy, the redness and swelling on my forehead had faded, and the small patch of broken skin in the middle had scabbed over. It was covered by my bangs, so it wasn't too obvious.
When the scab falls off, use scar cream for a period of time and there will be no trace left.
The bruise on his shoulder caused by the door was almost invisible after Song Yuntang applied blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing medicine for a few days.
No one in the family mentioned the bandit incident again.
Just when she thought the matter was finally over and was ready to show her strength - her period came again.
When Song Jinbao and Zhao Qiao'e brought several elders from the clan, it was exactly the day after her period.
Her period came last night. Perhaps because of the injury and the blood-activating medicine she had taken, her face was particularly pale today.
That day, Xu Qingye went to Tang Mansion.
Jiang went out to buy groceries.
Cheng Nian'er was watering the vegetable garden in the yard.
Seeing that the weather was good, Song Yuntang took a thin quilt and lay on the lounge chair outside the house.
As for Xu Yongwang and Xu Wencheng, they returned to Lushan Village yesterday morning with the delivery mule cart. They said they couldn't sit still and wanted to go to the mountains to get some firewood and burn some good charcoal to bring back to the county town.
Otherwise, when the weather gets colder, the consumption of charcoal and firewood will be large, which will also be a considerable expense. The key is that the charcoal and firewood may not be as good as those you make at home.
I was basking in the sun when there was a knock on the door.
"Nian'er, go open the door." Song Yuntang said lazily.
"Hey, good."
Cheng Nian'er put the water scoop into the bucket and trotted to open the gate.
She didn't know any of the Song family members.
So when she saw several unfamiliar faces standing outside, the little girl was a little scared. At the moment, there were only two women in the house, her and her cousin's wife. If the other party came to cause trouble, they would be no match for them.
"Who are you?" Cheng Nian'er asked while covering the door.
Song Jinbao and Zhao did not respond to her. When they saw the thin figure lying on the recliner, they walked straight forward, pushed open the door, and led several elders of the Song family into the yard.
"Tang'er, why are you tortured like this?"
Looking at Song Yuntang's pale face, Zhao felt a pain in her heart and her eyes began to turn red.
Song Yuntang thought it was Jiang who came back from buying groceries.
When she heard Zhao Qiao'e's voice, she was stunned at first, then struggled to sit up.
"Dad, Mom, why are you here?"
The weak voice he spoke in made Zhao feel even more distressed.
She sniffed, took her hand and said, "I've heard about the bandits. Don't worry, our family won't leave you alone. I brought the elders of the clan here today to make the decision for you and take you back to our own home. From now on, your parents and your brothers will raise you and will never let you suffer again."
"No."
Song Yuntang broke free from her hand and didn't understand the situation for a moment.
"When did I say I wanted to go back to Rongshu Village? And where did you hear about the bandits? Did you believe what others told you?"
Song Jinbao, who was standing aside, had a serious expression on his face.
"Recently, the news that the government had wiped out the bandits in Funiu Village has been spreading like wildfire in several nearby villages. Zhao Zhao came home yesterday and told us about it. She said that when the government arrived at Funiu Village, they were able to wipe out the bandits because someone opened the village gate from the inside. She said you were the one who opened the gate."
Zhao started crying out of heartache.
"Mom only found out yesterday that you were kidnapped by bandits. I blame Dad and Mom for not knowing about this earlier, causing Tang'er to suffer in the Xu family."
Even though such a big thing happened, the Xu family didn't even inform their family.
After all, they are Tang'er's closest relatives, and they should know everything. At least after their daughter gets into trouble, they can still be by her side and give her advice.
I heard that the Xu family came to the county town a few days ago, but now I see Tang'er lying alone in the yard, enjoying the breeze, letting a little girl who seems to know nothing accompany her. Isn't this deliberately ignoring her?
Thinking of this, Zhao Qiao'e felt even more distressed.
Several elders of the Song family standing by sighed, with expressions of regret on their faces.
