499 Villagers' Tribute (2 more)

Everyone was shocked.

No wonder the old man looks like a fairy-like and transcends the world, and turns out to be a great scholar.

These people are almost illiterate and have limited knowledge, but they know that great scholars are the first students in the world, the role models of all literati, and the people they will never see in their lifetime.

The door that was noisy just now suddenly had no sound, and even the breathing sound was deliberately suppressed, for fear of disturbing the old man.

The village chief quietly took a step back, and everyone subconsciously retreated, moving in unison, raising their legs high and landing lightly without any sound.

"You guys are..."

Song Sanxiao looked at people's actions in confusion, not understanding what was wrong with them. Could it be that they were scared?

The village chief put his finger on his lips, signaled him to silence, and continued to retreat, and then turned around and took everyone away quickly.

Song Sanxiao scratched her head in a daze, and was about to turn around and go to the kitchen to help, but footsteps came. The person who came was carrying a basket with more than a dozen eggs in the basket. He walked to the door and put them down, turned around and left in a hurry.

Another person rushed over, with a handful of vegetables in his hand, and there was mud on the roots. It was obvious that they had just been pulled out and were very fresh.

Someone came over one after another, holding things in his hands, put them at the door and turned around and left.

Song Sanxiao looked at all this in amazement. It was not until the village chief put a piece of meat at the door that he came to his senses, "Dad, mother, brother, sister-in-law, come out and take a look!"

Several people were shocked by his throat and ran out of the house one after another. They were stunned when they saw the things at the door.

"What's going on?"

Grandma Song asked.

"I don't know either. They just asked my sister-in-law's family, and I told them that the old gentleman was a great scholar, and then they all went home and brought things to the door."

Everyone looked at each other.

"Put it in first, these are the respects of the villagers to the old man."

A few people went out and moved their things into the yard one by one.

The old man heard the movement and came out of the house, "This is..."

"The villagers heard the third brother talk about your identity and went home to give it to you."

The old man was slightly stunned. There were many people who wanted to curry favor with him in the capital, and there were people who gave him all kinds of valuable things, but no one gave these ordinary things, a braid of garlic, a handful of vegetables with soil, and a chicken tied with wings.

The old man was very moved, "We can't ask for these things for nothing. Xu Liang, you can drive the carriage back to the county town now, and buy a box of good snacks from the family."

Song Sanxiao immediately volunteered, "I'll go with me, I know which dim sum is good."

"Okay, you guys go and go back."

After the two left, the old man and Mr. Song returned to the main hall to sit down, lamenting the simplicity of the villagers.

On the other side, Song Sanxiao and Xu Liang got on the carriage and headed straight to the county town. After arriving at the county town, he pointed to the direction of the Weiyuan Escort Agency. After arriving, he jumped out of the carriage and called a person from the escort agency to accompany Xu Liang to buy snacks. "There are a total of forty-six families in the village. Come and pick me up after you buy it."

Xu Liangying went to the snack shop with the people from the escort agency.

Song Sanxiao ran into the escort agency quickly.

Everyone knew that he and Qi Ying were going to get engaged, and the people from the escort agency greeted him one after another:

"Young Master Song is here!"

Song Sanxiao responded with a grin, without stopping, went directly to Qi Ying's yard, stood at the door of the house and shouted, "Ms. Qi."

Qi Ying lay on the bed, and when she heard his voice, she wanted to lift the quilt and cover her head, pretending that she couldn't hear it.

"Miss Qi?"

Unheard the echo, Song Sanxiao shouted again.

Qi Ying closed her eyes and said, "Come in."

Song Sanxiao went in and walked to the bed in three or two steps, feeling heartbroken, "Are you feeling better?"

Qi Ying nodded weakly and signaled him to sit down.

Song Sanxiao pulled the stool and sat beside the bed, trying to pull her hand. Thinking of the wound on her body, her hand fell on the thin quilt and covered her with a cover, "I'm here to tell you, my mother said we won't allow me to come to see you again before we get engaged, you have to recover from the wound."

Qi Ying nodded.

"My sister-in-law's family has gone to our house. I took advantage of the opportunity to buy snacks and can't stay for a long time. In the future, I will still set up a stall with my second brother and second sister-in-law. If you have anything, let the escort agency go to the stall and tell me quietly that I will come."

Qi Ying nodded.

"Why don't you speak? I'll pour you a glass of water."

"No, I'm not thirsty, I'm just a little sleepy and want to rest."

"Then, then I won't disturb you anymore, you can have a good rest."

Song Sanxiao stood up reluctantly and walked out in one step or three steps.

Qi Ying closed her eyes.

After a long time, footsteps came again. She thought Song Sanxiao was back, so she suddenly opened her eyes. What caught her eye was Mrs. Qi's guilty face.

"Ying'er, I feel wronged."

Qi Ying shook her head slowly.

...

When they bought the snacks, Song Sanxiao took Xu Liang to deliver them from house to house. When they learned that it was the old man's return gift, the villagers said they would not accept anything. They respected the old man's worthless things, how could they ask the old man's return gift?

Xu Liang told them the old man’s original words, “The old man said that this is also his wish. If you don’t accept it, he will be embarrassed to eat what you sent.”

"That's right, just, hold them all."

Song Sanxiao stuffed the snacks into the hands of the villagers, pulled Xu Liang away. After the forty-five families delivered, only Song Ming's family was left. He didn't even look at them, and went directly from Song Ming's house. He was in a hurry to see Qi Ying, but forgot that Song Ming had never gone to deliver things.

Xu Liang grabbed him, "There is another one."

"This store doesn't need to be given, they didn't give anything."

Even if it wasn't given, it wasn't good to leave this family. Xu Liang was holding a snack and wanted to go there, but was pulled back by Song Sanxiao. "To be honest, there is no good thing in this family now. Take the snack back and give it to Erya. Erya is Song Ming's biological daughter. They abused her at the beginning, so they didn't even let the children eat a full meal."

There was actually such a person. Xu Liang gave up the idea of ​​giving them to them and took the snacks back.

Inside the house, Song Wanyue was introducing Song Shen to Meng Yang, "Uncle, grandfather, this is my second brother, and he is now in charge of the business at home."

Meng Yang's eyes fell on Song Shen and looked at him.

At the age of twelve or thirteen, facing him without Yue'er's calmness, his eyes were still a little afraid to look at him. I thought I had never seen any big scenes and needed more training.

"Second brother, this is my uncle and grandfather."

"Grandfather."

Song Shen called out honestly.

Meng Yang nodded slightly while stroking his beard.

Song Wanyue said, "Uncle, my second brother just managed the family business and has no experience. If you are fine these days, can you give him some advice?"
