Chapter 6: Who to cry for
"But..." Song Baoqin frowned, "Even if they really redeem you, they probably have other ideas, right? What if..."
Chu Xia looked at Song Baoqin, who looked worried, and smiled: "Don't worry, they probably won't come again." What's the difference between asking the Jiang family to pay out and killing them?
Song Baoqin nodded: "Sister-in-law, although Brother Song is no longer here, Song Laoer is so good at studying that he can take the scholar examination next year, and maybe he can also take the imperial examination to become an official in the future. Your life will not be bad in the future...
…”
"That's right." Chu Xia nodded.
When the two elders of the Song family were still alive, they sent all three sons to private schools. In this era, it is not easy to provide for a scholar, let alone three children.
Mr. Song took the initiative to stop studying after two years. He said he preferred to practice martial arts, and went to town to study with an old bodyguard master and learn kung fu for two years.
Song Lao Er and Song Lao San are both very smart, but Song Lao Er likes to read, but Song Lao San is naughty and can't sit still.
"By the way, why didn't you go to the pier? We got a lot of things this time." Song Baoqin quickly changed the subject, "It just so happened that the Sun family, a big family in the town, was going to hold a banquet. They had already sent people to wait at the pier.
, as soon as the ship came back, they all were taken away..."
"That's great." Chu Xia laughed as well. Taking them all away meant that there was money to share.
"Okay, I'm going back first. I'll come and call you tomorrow morning. Don't be late." Song Baoqin waved his hand.
"Why are you calling me?" Chu Xia looked confused.
Song Baoqin was suddenly surprised: "Have you forgotten?"
"As you know, so many things happened one after another, and I was hit hard." Chu Xia sighed, "I originally thought that I would be able to live a good life when Boss Song comes back... but in the blink of an eye, it turned out to be
I'm a widow... You said that I didn't even go to the court, and I didn't even see clearly what my man looked like, so I became a widow. I'm only seventeen years old, how will I live in the future? Baoqin, you don't even know what my husband looks like.
You know, my mind is always in a mess..."
"I'm going to town to hand in the embroidery tomorrow." Song Baoqin shook Chu Xia's hand distressedly, "Sister-in-law, don't think too much. If you don't feel well, I can help you hand it over tomorrow."
"Speaking out, my heart becomes much brighter." Chu Xia showed a bitter smile, "Besides, I have been lying down for three days. It's time to cheer up. Life has to go on, right?"
Song Baoqin glanced at Chu Xia in surprise: "Sister-in-law, you seem to have changed a lot. In the past, you would always cry when something happened, but now..."
"I used to cry because I felt there was hope, but now, who should I cry for?" Chu Xia sighed again, "Since no one will feel sorry for me, I can only feel sorry for myself."
"It will be fine." Song Baoqin reached out and hugged Chu Xia, "Don't think too much." He thought to himself that he should come over to accompany her more often in the future. It was pitiful.
After Song Baoqin left, Chu Xia hurriedly ran back to the house, opened a camphor wood box at the end of the kang, and couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the original owner had already embroidered all the embroidery, otherwise... pointing at her, even the buttons
People who have never sewed before will not be able to embroider well even if they have the memory of the original owner.
I won't take any more embroidery items after I deliver them tomorrow, so I have to find another way to make money.
But this is ancient times, and it’s not that easy for women to show their faces. How can they make money?
She doesn't think she can make money by selling recipes or the like. The ancients had high IQs.
Is it possible to go back to the old business? Set up a stall and tell fortunes? Read people's Feng Shui horoscopes? Of course, she can also treat patients, save people, and exorcise ghosts and evil spirits.
But I don’t know what the market is like in this era, let alone what the rules are, so I have to find someone to find out. If this were in modern times, this could be solved by going online, but here...the era without 5G is a fucked up era.
