Chapter 123 Chapter Township
Song Xiaobao counted the ducks several times before he finished counting the ducks. Aunt Chen watched Zhao Yanxiu and Song Tiancai come back, hugged her granddaughter Xiaohua, stood up, said goodbye and went back.Song Tiancai hugged Song Xiaobao, wiped his face, and asked with a smile, "Did you have fun today? Did you bully Sister Xiaohua?"
Song Xiaobao raised a smile and said: "No, sister Xiaohua and I dressed the duck together. Grandma and Grandma Chen made many small clothes for the duck. I am an elder brother, and I want to be a good brother like Liang Ge, so I will let Xiao Hua Sister's."
Song Tiancai didn't expect that the somewhat squeamish Song Xiaobao would have the self-consciousness of being an older brother, and he deeply felt that he taught well. He not only praised Song Xiaobao verbally, but also made a toy for Song Xiaobao, coaxing Song Xiaobao's little face to be flushed all night of.
In the evening, Zhao Yanxiu took out the two boxes given by Fu Wenrui, and found that the boxes contained the title deeds of several well-located shops in Quanzhou, two houses, a Zhuangzi, and 5 taels of silver. Zhao Yanxiu frowned. Such a big deal.
Zhao Yanxiu looked at the two boxes at first, thinking they were gifts from Fu Yanxiu to him and Song Tiancai, so he showed his kindness to them and expressed no objection.He just took it.Unexpectedly, there are so many properties and money. For Zhao Yanxiu, the two boxes in his hand turned into hot potatoes.
Thinking about the probability of sending the things back, Zhao Yanxiu shook his head, knowing that it was unlikely.Unless, Zhen and Fu Wenrui broke up, but that would be extremely detrimental to him, his elder brother, and the Song family.Fu Wenrui had good intentions, and it was too embarrassing for him to take it and send it back.
Song Tiancai was also taken aback when he saw this, but he was relieved when he thought about the Fu family's reputation as an imperial merchant.For a big merchant like the Fu family, it is more practical to take out these.If Zhao Yanxiu really gave Zhao Yanxiu any other treasures of art, even preservation would be a problem.Fu Wenrui probably also thought of this problem, so he set up these properties for Zhao Yanxiu, and he also thought that Zhao Yanxiu would go to martial arts in the future, so he gave so many banknotes so that Zhao Yanxiu can manage them in the future.This is because he understood Zhao Yanxiu's temperament and would never ask them for something, so he prepared to give it to Zhao Yanxiu in advance.Song Tiancai suddenly felt that if this uncle Fu Wenrui was not arrogant and self-righteous, he could be regarded as a good relative with this heart.
Looking at Zhao Yanxiu's expression, Song Tiancai understood Zhao Yanxiu's concerns, and said, "Yanxiu, don't worry. Since Fu Wenrui gave you these, you can take them. Otherwise, he doesn't know what he will be thinking about."
Zhao Yanxiu felt that he didn't want to bother with these things anymore, and instead discussed with Song Tiancai how to arrange these things.The two of them talked for a long time before they made a decision. When they were sleeping, Zhao Yanxiu's mind flashed today's Lin Qianxi's words. Thinking of his parents, and recalling the despair and resentment of himself in the prison, Zhao Yanxiu suddenly felt that he could How lucky I am to meet Song Tiancai, my elder brother.
Not only did he save himself, but he also made himself believe that kindness is rewarded, and calmed down the hatred in his heart.During the days of the Song family, Song Tiancai was caring and slowly healed the pain in his heart.Otherwise, today, he would definitely not be able to say such things so calmly.As he said, don't care so don't lose.
Soon in March and April, the grass grows and the birds fly, the flowers are red and the willows are green. Without Fu Wenrui's sense of presence from time to time, Song Tiancai is in a very good mood.I took everyone from the Song family to go to the famous Huguo Temple in Quanzhou for a spring outing. I happened to meet Liang Yourong and his son who were visiting the Song family, and they went to the Huguo Temple together.
Huguo Temple is very famous in Quanzhou. The two elders of the Song family brought Song Xiaobao and Liang Qizhong. Liang Yourong has been in Quanzhou for so many years and is quite familiar with Huguo Temple.After introducing them one by one for the Song family, everyone listened very interestingly, and their interest in Huguo Temple increased greatly.
Quanzhou is full of flowers, and in spring, many wealthy families come to Huguo Temple to visit. The incense here is extremely strong, and many ladies come to Huguo Temple to offer incense.Song Tiancai and his party are all handsome and handsome, except for the two elders and two youngsters of the Song family.
Especially Liang Yourong and Zhao Yanxiu, the brothers, are even more outstanding in appearance. Even if Liang Yourong has no airs, he is still in a high position at a young age, so he naturally has a distinctive bearing.Zhao Yanxiu's demeanor is more restrained, but also very deep.As for Song Tiancai, although he is not as outstanding as the other two, he has a smile on his face and is amiable, which also adds a lot of points.
These three young men were walking on the road, which attracted the attention of the ladies and gentlemen.The folk customs in Quanzhou are civilized, and the atmosphere of this dynasty is relatively open, so the control over women is relatively loose. There are a few women who look like women, and they throw sachets and silk scarves at the three of them happily. Song Tiancai was taken aback.
Looking at Zhao Yanxiu reflexively, he was worried that Zhao Yanxiu would be unhappy, but he didn't expect Zhao Yanxiu to throw more than him.Song Tiancai immediately became ashamed, knowing that his sweetheart is excellent, but his sweetheart has a reputation, what about the reservedness of these women?
He shouldn't have chosen this day to join in the fun. Seeing the nymphomaniac looks of all the women looking at Zhao Yanxiu, Song Tiancai's face grew longer and longer, so he hurried up the mountain, leaving these unsightly women far away. .
Liang Yourong was amused looking at Song Tiancai's appearance, but he was also quite satisfied with Song Tiancai's concern for Zhao Yanxiu.When the Song family entered the Huguo Temple, they realized that today was really an inconvenient time. The main hall was overcrowded and there was no place to stay.
Song Tiancai was really speechless, how could there be so many people burning incense?Crowded in the sea of people, I couldn't hold it anymore, so I pulled Zhao Yanxiu and came out first to wait.Both the elders of the Song family believed in Buddhism, they led Song Xiaobao to squeeze in front of the Buddha statue energetically, and quickly squeezed in.Although they couldn't see anyone anymore, Song Tiancai and Zhao Yanxiu couldn't leave first, so they waited outside.
When Liang Yourong and his son saw so many people, they were wise enough not to go in. Instead, they went to the temple to find monks to prepare lunch.The vegetarian food at Huguo Temple is also very famous in Quanzhou. Fu Wenzhao has eaten vegetarian food and recited Buddhism for many years, but Liang Yourong also has a few acquainted monks in Huguo Temple. It is not a problem to prepare a table of vegetarian food.
Waiting in front of the door, Song Tiancai looked up at Zhao Yanxiu's profile, and secretly swore to the Lord Buddha that he would never disappoint Zhao Yanxiu in this life.At the same time, I also thank God for giving him such a chance to start over again.
Within half an hour, the second elder of the Song family came out with Song Xiaobao.Chen Guizhi's face was full of joy, and Song Dashan was also very happy to see it. Only Song Xiaobao woke up early in the morning and didn't eat anything. At first he only cared about playing with Liang Qi again, but now he is a little tired.Seeing Song Tiancai, he stretched out his hand and said, "Father, I'm hungry, I want to eat vegetables."
Song Xiaobao has already been told by the elders of the Song family that meat is not allowed in Buddhist places.So, Song Xiaobao ate vegetables instead of meat.Song Tiancai hugged Song Xiaobao, smiled and asked Chen Guizhi: "Mother, seeing how happy you and dad are, could it be that you have found gold?"
Chen Guizhi said cheerfully: "Tiancai, this is really a good thing. I asked for a lottery for Xiaobao, but I only got a lottery. It's good luck. I said that in the future, Xiaobao will be a lucky one, and he will be a high-ranking official." Well. Can your father and I be unhappy?"
There is one more thing that Chen Guizhi didn't say. When she first went to see the physiognomy, a monk said that she lost her son in middle age.These words scared her to death, so she asked Song Xiaobao to ask for an autograph, and the autograph was very auspicious, which eased Chen Guizhi's heart.
She just found another monk to tell Song Tiancai's fortune. He said that Song Tiancai had a catastrophe before he was 20 years old.Otherwise, it would be a fate to die young. Counting Zhao Yanxiu's fate, he and Song Tiancai were extremely compatible.
Chen Guizhi remembered that Song Tiancai couldn't afford to be seriously ill and was plotted by Feng Jinhua.With a bluff in my heart, I shouted in my mouth that I am lucky.Thinking about it again, Song Tiancai has passed the catastrophe, and the days to come will be smooth, so he is happy.
Song Dashan didn't have as many ideas as Chen Guizhi, he only thought that his grandson would be a promising future, and he was satisfied.Song Tiancai's son is already much better than his old man, and Song Dashan will not be bothered if Song Xiaobao's little grandson has a good future in the future.
At noon, Liang Yourong and his son had a fast at Huguo Temple, and the spring outing ended in such an anticlimactic manner.
It has entered July in a blink of an eye, and counting the time, it will soon be the third anniversary of the death of Zhao Caiqing and his wife.Song Tiancai plans to go back to Yongle Town with Zhao Yanxiu to worship Zhao Caiqing and his wife.And at this time, Fu Wenrui, who hadn't seen him for a long time, came to the Song family again, expressing that he would go to Yongle Town with Zhao Yanxiu and Song Tiancai, to do a ritual for Zhao Caiqing, and to thank Zhao Caiqing and his wife for their kindness in nurturing Zhao Yanxiu.
Perhaps Song Tiancai and Zhao Yanxiu would not agree to other matters, but they would not stop Fu Wenrui from going to worship Zhao Caiqing and his wife.With Fu Wenrui's boats and convoy, the journey would be much more convenient, and the Song family's elders were also moved.
I haven't returned to my hometown for almost a year, and the second elder of the Song family also has some relatives and friends who want to stay in their hometown.Taking advantage of Fu Wenrui's boat and carriage, he took Song Xiaobao back to visit relatives.Originally, they planned to go back during the Chinese New Year this year, but when they thought about the cold weather during the Chinese New Year, they were not too young, and they brought Song Xiaobao with them. If they caught the cold, it would be bad for their children to suffer along with them.
So he changed his mind and went back with Fu Wenrui.Fu Wenrui actually had something to do when he went to Yongle Town this time, although Liang Yourong sent someone to vindicate Zhao Yanxiu's original case.However, Zhao Caixing's family and the Tang family who schemed against Zhao Caiqing and his wife and caused Zhao Yanxiu to go to prison did not do much.
Fu Wenrui planned to go there this time to seek justice for his little nephew, especially when he learned that Zhao Yanxi was placed at the door of Zhao's house by Lin Qianxi.In Fu Wenrui's heart, he only felt more guilty and distressed towards Zhao Yanxiu, and he naturally wanted to teach those who bullied and wronged Zhao Yanxiu a good lesson.
In July, the weather was still very hot, but traveling with Fu Wenrui, a local tyrant, was much more convenient and comfortable than the previous trips.In addition to the melons and fruits, there was ice in the carriage. When they arrived at the port, Zhao Yanxiu and Song Tiancai saw Fu Wenrui's financial resources.
The Fu family has its own fleet, and Fu Wenrui, the head of the family, naturally uses the best, largest and most luxurious boat.There is a separate room on the boat, the furniture in the room is fully furnished, and the mats used are the softest, coolest and best.Ice cubes are prepared on board, and the food is better than at home, and there are special cooks for it.
The two elders of the Song family had never been on such a luxurious boat before. They brought Song Xiaobao into their own house and didn't leave the house very often. It seemed that they were nervous.And Fu Wenrui also specially sent his servants to serve the two elders of the Song family. The two elders of the Song family were uncomfortable, and within a long time, they went to Song Tiancai to express that they had hands and feet, and they were really not used to being treated like an old lady.Song Tiancai went to mention it to Fu Wenrui, only then did Fu Wenrui realize that he was not doing his job properly, so he called his servants back.
The Song family had to go back this time not only for the third anniversary of the death of Zhao Caiqing and his wife, but also to visit relatives and friends, so naturally they brought a lot of things.The second elder of the Song family was not mean to others, and bought a lot of gifts for his relatives and friends in Quanzhou. Fortunately, he went with Fu Wenrui. The things were transported first with the Fu family caravan, and the people followed.
After getting off the boat, someone from the Fu family was waiting to pick them up at the port.
When they arrived in Yongle Town, Fu Wenrui and the Song family parted ways.Song Tiancai and the others went directly back to Songjia Village. Earlier, Song Tiancai had written to Chen Dashi's family, telling them that they would come back in August this year.Therefore, when their carriage entered Songjia Village, Chen Dashi and Lin Xiaoman immediately rushed to the entrance of the village to meet them after they got the news.
The two elders of the Song family lifted the curtain of the carriage, looked at the familiar village and folks, and suddenly felt deeply moved.Even though they have only been to Quanzhou for less than a year, the life of the Song family here seems to be far away from them.The villagers of the Song family village looked at the two elders of the Song family, and immediately stepped forward to say hello excitedly.
The two elders of the Song family were not people who put on airs, so they got out of the carriage quickly and exchanged greetings with the villagers.Quanzhou lived a prosperous life. Song Dashan and Chen Guizhi stayed there for a year, and their complexions became more and more rosy. They started their own mill business and did business with others, so their attitudes naturally changed.Chen Guizhi specially made a lot of fashionable clothes and jewelry from Quanzhou for his return this time, and bought some for the rest of the Song family.People depend on clothing, Buddha depends on gold clothing, the two elders of the Song family made it look like they were rich when they fell down.
So, it didn't take long for Song Tiancai's family to make a fortune abroad, and the news of returning to their hometown seemed to have wings.
