Chapter 235 Respect the fate of others
Chapter 235 Respect the fate of others
[Sister Aning, I am so happy to see you. I am so happy to see you...]
In the letter, Zhou Nanxing was polite at first, and then said that she was planning to take her mother to Tongxing Prefecture, where their hometown was.
The reason for returning this time was not for anything else, but because Zhou Nanxing was getting married. The letter said that the two families were old friends and had a previous engagement...
“Haha, that’s quite interesting.
The mother and daughter were almost dead, but this so-called family friend didn't come out to help. It's only been a few days, and she's getting married."
"Get married? That Miss Zhou? How old is she?"
Wang Qiuyue and Xiao Yingchun looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes. The girl looked about the same age as Aning, so how could she get married just like that?
"Who knows?"
Song An Ning hummed, feeling a little emotional.
When she first met Zhou Nanxing, she was so bright and dazzling in her red dress that Song Anning was a little envious at that time.
A beautiful face, exquisite jewelry, nice clothes, a flamboyant personality, superb medical skills, and parents who doted on her...
Just over a month later, the carefree girl became like this.
She had originally planned to find Zhou Nanxing on her return to discuss opening a small pharmacy or clinic. Since the demise of Wanhetang, the government had been very supportive of the former clinics and pharmacies reopening, offering generous subsidies.
Zhou Nanxing had been with Doctor Zhou since he was a child, so his medical skills were not bad. He would have no problem opening a small pharmacy, but this...
After thinking it over again, Song Anning decided to go to the town.
"Sister Yingchun, please accompany me to the town and let Uncle Ming harness the ox cart."
"Okay, I'll go buy some needle and thread."
Xiao Yingchun went home and called her father, took out her veil and put it on, and the two little girls sat on the ox cart and whispered to each other.
"A Ning, I don't know how to thank you. Ever since I applied the ointment you brought back, the wounds haven't itched anymore."
"It's good that it works. I've kept your injuries in mind. If you get better soon, we'll all be happy too."
Xiao Yingchun held Song Anning's hand, her eyes moist. She was not good at expressing herself, but she remembered all the kindness Song Anning had shown her and her family.
But this time, she really couldn't help but thank him. Maybe they had suffered too much before, and God felt sorry for them, so they met Song An Ning.
Now every day is happy. Life has a purpose and I don’t feel tired when doing work.
Along the way, Xiao Yingchun kept talking and talked a lot about what happened in the village in the past two days.
They were all trivial matters, except for one thing that surprised Song An Ning.
"That He Lian'er was also embarrassed after causing such a scene in our family. She was severely beaten by Old Madam He when she got home.
She ran all the way to Liujia Village like crazy and cried at the door of her cousin's house.
"And then? Did her aunt agree to the marriage?"
"How could that be possible... Her aunt absolutely disagreed, said a lot of nasty things, and even slapped her twice."
"Tsk tsk, this aunt is not a good person."
Song Anning remembered that when she was engaged to He Guangzong, she heard him talk about this aunt, and she seemed like a decent person.
To treat He Lian'er like this, he must think that Zhao Lanhua's death has something to do with He Lian'er, right?
"He Lian'er was much more capable than her aunt. That very night she went to the home of the girl her cousin was engaged to, and no one knew what she said to that family.
The next day, the woman went to her cousin's house to break off the engagement, which was very embarrassing.
In two days, she will marry her cousin."
"..."
Song Anning shook her head. If He Lian'er's cousin was a responsible man, he would not have thought of marrying someone else after what happened.
Moreover, can a marriage that no one is optimistic about really be happy?
Who cares about her?
"Respect the fate of others. They are their own choices. Just be happy."
"Tsk, if you say so, then what are you going to town for? Are you trying to stop Miss Zhou from getting married?
My mother once said, "It's better to demolish ten temples than to ruin a marriage. Ning, you must think it through carefully."
"?"
Song Anning was full of questions. Did everyone think that she came to the town to stop Zhou Nanxing from getting married?
"What? I was thinking of buying some chickens and ducks to raise. Our village is next to a big river, so raising ducks and geese is the most suitable place.
This way we can save some costs on pickled preserved eggs."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier? Hahaha, I thought you were going to stop me from getting married..."
Since coming to Banyue Village, Xiao Yingchun often talks with Song Anning and Wang Qiuyue, and her personality has become much more lively than before.
"As I said, respect the fate of others. Every decision we make now will affect the future.
She may have her own difficulties, or she may have really encountered difficulties, or the man she is going to marry is someone she has admired for a long time.
Whatever the reason is, it has nothing to do with us.
Their family helped me before, and I also helped her resolve the crisis a few days ago, so that’s it…”
After reading the letter just now, Song Anning was actually a little heartbroken because Zhou Nanxing wrote something else in the letter.
She said that Doctor Zhou had previously prescribed a detoxification prescription for Song An Ning, which cost at least twenty taels of silver, and her family's ancestral scar removal cream also required several taels of silver.
Therefore, she felt that since Song An Ning had paid her back fifteen taels of silver, they were even.
I don't know if she said this on purpose or if it was what she really thought, but when she said this, it expressed only one meaning.
That is, I don’t want to have any more contact with Song An Ning, so I can only understand and respect her.
“That day, Miss Zhou came over, riding in a carriage.
I've gained some experience in the Wang family before, and Miss Zhou's clothing is no worse than that of the ladies from wealthy families."
"?"
Song An Ning raised her eyebrows and didn't mention it again. She chose her own path, and it was the same for everyone.
She was a poor little girl in rags just two days ago, and today she has become a rich lady?
Tsk tsk tsk, life is full of uncertainty.
But what she is more concerned about now is whether she can buy more ducklings. When her second grandfather helped her draw the blueprints, they had discussed that the backyard should be bigger so that they could raise more poultry and livestock.
But the ducks sold at the market only have a few ducklings in each brood, and they are of different sizes, so they cannot be raised together.
"Aning, why don't we buy some chicks first? This old hen is carrying a brood of chicks, which is really pleasing to the eyes. I'll feed them if we take them home."
Song An Ning and the others looked around and found that only this nest of old hens was pretty good. Generally speaking, a fat old hen could be sold for a hundred copper coins.
This shop's price is very reasonable. A hen and more than ten chicks only cost one hundred and fifty cents in total.
After asking Xiangxiang to check whether they were healthy, Song Anning did not bargain. After giving the silver, he took away the cages together.
Xiao Ming was guarding the ox cart. When he saw Song An Ning buying something, he hurried forward to greet him. He saw someone selling duck eggs nearby, one cent each. He suddenly remembered that Song An Ning seemed to buy duck eggs for two cents in the village. Why was that?
"Look, young lady, this duck egg is not bad, it's only one penny, but in the village..."
