Song Ming’s daughter-in-law placed the bowl in front of Song Gua’s.
Song Gua’s stared, “What is this?”
A big thick bowl of something with quite a few big lumps in it.
Song Ming saw it too and was disgusted.
Song Ming’s daughter-in-law took a step back and bowed her head, her voice almost inaudible, “Yes, it’s the maize porridge Mother made.”
“You’re talking nonsense, how can this be mother’s corn porridge?”
Saying that, she got up, peeled her away, turned her little feet upside down and went to the kitchen room, seeing the contents of the pot ……
Turning around, she huffed and walked out, “It’s all your fault that you, the sweeper, came back late and consumed the corn porridge that old mother had worked so hard to make into this state. I don’t care, I’ll never make it again, you deserve to die of exhaustion.”
When she finished, she had already walked to the door of the house and gave Song Ming’s daughter-in-law a blank look.
Song Ming’s daughter-in-law was so scared that she took a step back.
“Why are you still standing there, why don’t you go and redo it now! What’s the matter, you want to starve me to death before you’ve earned any money?”
Song Ming’s daughter-in-law hurriedly walked out with her head bowed, went to the kitchen, got the corn paste out of it, brushed the pot and started making it again.
Song Ming simply didn’t know what to say about his mother.
“Can’t you be a little nicer to her?”
Song Gua’s eyes were crossed, “She’s just a b*tch, even if I want to be nice to her, she doesn’t have that blessing.”
When it was ready again and the three of them had eaten, Song Ming’s daughter-in-law all brushed up and went back to the house. Song Ming was lying on the bed as usual, with his legs crossed, he had just thought about it, he couldn’t be too nice to her, lest she become suspicious.
He opened his mouth, pretending to be careless, and asked, “Can you do it now?”
Song Ming’s daughter-in-law froze for a moment before she realized that he was asking about the hot pot base and gave a small “mmm”.
Song Ming almost climbed up with excitement, but then held back, “You know what ingredients to use?”
“I only know one.”
“One kind?”
“Hmm.”
“And several others?”
“Hmm.”
“What else?”
“Nothing, nothing more.”
Song Ming felt his hands itch and really wanted to slap them over.
A worthless thing, it had been days, but he had only learnt one, how could he have been blind and married such a stupid thing back in the first place.
But when he sold the recipe, he would be able to eat and drink, and marry a beautiful young woman to help him have some big fat kids!
Song Ming pushed back his anger and moved in “thoughtfully” to give her a place, “You’re tired, sit down and rest for a while.”
……
At the same time, the Song family.
“Yue, Yue’er, you, you spare second brother.”
Song Shen looked at the silver needles in Song Wan Yue’s eyes and shrank back in fear.
Song Wangyue had already mastered the essentials of acupuncture, but she still needed to practise, and this naturally fell on Song Shen’s shoulders.
“Don’t be afraid, second brother, it doesn’t hurt.”
Song Wan Yue was holding the set of silver needles from Doctor Yao, Gu Yi had said he would build her a good set, but he hadn’t done so by now.
“You go and pierce third uncle, third uncle has thick skin and thick flesh. I can’t, I’m afraid of pain.”
Song Wangyue didn’t listen to this from him in the slightest, “Second brother, you’d better stop struggling and be good and let me practice my hands.”
“No.”
Song Shen didn’t even take off his shoes and scurried to the bed, going to the corner of the bed, away from her, “I’m really afraid of the pain, very, very afraid!”
“Second Brother really won’t let me practice?”
“No, not even to death.”
“Fine then.”
Song Wangyue smiled faintly.
Song Shen had a bad instinct, and before he could react, he heard Song Wangyue shout, “Second Uncle, Second Aunt!”
Song Shu and Liu Cui Lan heard the shout and immediately came over from their own house, “Yue’er, what’s wrong?”
“I want to practice acupuncture, and second brother won’t cooperate.”
Song Jue immediately glared, “Little brat, get your ass down here!”
Liu Cui Lan also glared at him, “It’s just a few needles, why are you hiding so far away, come down.”
Song Shen wanted to cry, “I, I, I’m afraid of the pain.”
Without saying a word, Song Shu climbed onto the bed, dragged him down and held him down, “Yue’er, where should I stick it, in the head or on the body?”
Song Shen, ……
struggled and cried, “Am I still your biological child?”
“I would like to think that you are not our own, then we might have one more daughter.”
Song Shen was so heartbroken by these words that she didn’t even have the strength to struggle anymore.
Song Wan Yue pushed his sleeve up and slapped his arm, “Relax.”
Song Shen gave up, his eyes closed and his whole body relaxed, letting her do as she pleased.
Seeing that he was being honest, Song Shu released him and watched curiously as Song Wangyue stuck the silver needles in Song Shen’s arm, the end of the needles still wiggling slightly.
“Huh?”
Song Shen opened his eyes, surprisingly it wasn’t very painful, just like a mosquito bite.
“Don’t worry, second brother ……”
Song Wangyue drew out another silver needle, “I won’t pit you, if it really hurt, I wouldn’t have used you to practice.”
Song Shen accused with intent, “It’s still Yue’er who loves me, unlike a certain two people who can’t wait for me to not be their own.”
SMACK!
Song Shu slapped him on the back of the head, “Brat, who are you talking about? Tell me yourself, are you better than Yue’er?”
Song Shen was dumbfounded by the question, and only after a long time did he struggle out a sentence, “Not every girl is like Yue’er either.”
“That’s not for sure, if your mother and I had a daughter, she might be as smart as your big brother.”
Song Shen was completely speechless from the blow.
……
The following day, Gu Yi came over in a carriage after breakfast.
“Little girl, the silver needle is ready, do you like it? The needle set was also handpicked by me, and the first moment I saw it, I felt it suited you perfectly.”
He had personally stood by for the past few days and watched the artisan create the silver needles with his own eyes.
The corners of Song Wan Yue’s mouth twitched as she looked at the needle set in front of her, which was inlaid with precious stones and could blind her eyes.
“Don’t like it?”
Gu Yi observed the words.
“Like it, very much.”
Song Wangyue said against her will, opening the needle sleeve and liking the silver needles inside with just one glance.
They were the same length as Dr. Yao’s set, the available material was better, the needle tips glowed even inside the house, and the end of the needles had been made in a different shape.
Gu Yi was satisfied, “I knew you would like it, I personally watched over the craftsman to create it.”
“It’s been hard work, I’ll make you whatever you want for lunch.”
“Boiled sliced pork.”
Gu Yi blurted out.
He simply hadn’t had enough last time, and was too embarrassed to grab it from the Song family.
“Good, I’ll make you another boiled fish, which is also very delicious.”
Gu Yi swallowed greedily.
“Ah Yi’er ……”
Song Lin’s voice came from the courtyard.
Gu Yi hurried out, “Uncle.”
“Didn’t you say last time that you wanted to follow me to the mountains to see the world, I see that the weather is perfect today, do you want to go?”
After saying that, he also gave Gu Yi a wink while the other few people were not paying attention.
Gu Yi immediately understood, “Apart from coming to deliver silver needles to Yue’er today, I just want to ask uncle if he has the time to take me to the mountains, I’ve been thinking of going with you to see the mountains?”
