OBS Chapter 144 Cold
Chapter 144 Cold
As soon as Qin Huiyin entered the room, Li Taohua observed her expression and found that she was obviously much happier.
She had disguised herself very well just now, but as a mother who had depended on her for many years, she could not hide her daughter's joys and sorrows from her.
"Mom, where is the new quilt on our bed that we haven't used yet?"
Li Taohua: "..."
I really underestimated that wolf cub.
Before, she had only sent some food, and she didn't want to spoil her daughter's fun, so she just went along with her. Now, it was incredible, even a blanket was sent. How could such a smart girl like her become so confused when she met him?
"My daughter, a quilt is not cheap." Li Taohua reminded.
"He gave me all his wages, enough to buy a few quilts." Qin Huiyin thought Li Taohua was reluctant to part with it, so she comforted her.
Li Taohua muttered, "Is this just a matter of a few quilts? If you continue to be so generous, our house will be completely empty."
Tang Yi curled his lips and smiled: "This guy is really scary. Everyone says he doesn't like to talk, but look at him being so quiet and yet he still manages to make my second sister take good care of him. What if he could talk?"
Tang Luwu stopped Tang Yi from laughing sarcastically: "Yinyin must have her reasons for thinking he's a good person."
Qin Huiyin brought out a new quilt and said to Li Taohua, "Mom, I'm going out for a while and will be back soon."
Li Taohua: "..."
'Momo' followed Qin Huiyin's footsteps.
When Qin Huiyin came out, she saw Song Ruize standing not far away waiting. She looked at him in surprise, but saw him stride over and take the quilt from her hand.
"I'm leaving tomorrow." Song Ruize said.
"You have a day off, right? You have to come back and stay next time you have a day off. Besides, there's also a New Year's holiday for repairing the dam. When you come back during the New Year, won't you have to use it too?"
Qin Huiyin followed Song Ruize and appeared in the desolate courtyard again.
"You haven't been back for so long, the grass is taller than you."
Qin Huiyin said casually, followed him into the bedroom, and then bent down to make the quilt for him.
When she came out again, she saw Song Ruize squatting there pulling weeds.
Qin Huiyin came over and helped him pull out the weeds.
"Don't do it." Song Ruize pushed her hand away. "These grasses cut my hands."
"Are you going back to the dam tomorrow morning?"
"I still have something to do. I'll go back when I'm done."
"Then you go ahead and do your work. I'm going back now."
"Wait a minute..." Song Ruize stopped her and stood up, admonishing her, "Don't move here."
After Song Ruize left, Qin Huiyin continued to pull out the weeds, and then she found that the weeds not only cut her hands, but were also difficult to pull out. She looked around, picked up a hoe and dug directly, digging up the weeds with their roots.
"Here." Song Ruize stuffed a cloth bag into her hand.
Qin Huiyin felt something heavy in her arms. She opened it and saw several large silver ingots. Each ingot weighed ten taels, totaling fifty taels.
"You have so much money, why do you still want to build a dam?"
"I don't want to stay in the village."
"But building a dam is very hard work," Qin Huiyin said. "But fortunately, this may be an opportunity in your life. If you keep hunting in the village, no matter how skilled you are, your life will end. You are so young and have such good skills, you should go out and try your luck."
As Qin Huiyin spoke, she stuffed the silver back into his hand.
"You have so much silver, why don't you keep it and do it for me?"
"Just consider it an advance for the money for the sauces!"
"If I have a bite to eat, I won't give you a bite less. Why should I pay?" Qin Huiyin said unhappily, "If we have to settle accounts so clearly, then I won't send it to you."
"Then keep it for me." Song Ruize said calmly, "I rarely come back, it's not safe to keep it at home."
Qin Huiyin hesitated, touched the silver ingot and said, "I'll make a separate account book for you and keep it for you temporarily. When you need it, come to me and I'll give you the silver."
"Ah."
Qin Huiyin said goodbye to Song Ruize and went home happily. She hummed a melodious and cheerful tune all the way and didn't notice that there was a figure following her, who didn't stop until she entered the door.
Song Ruize looked at the closed door.
Qin Huiyin's voice came from inside: "Mom, your beloved daughter is back."
Her voice is light and cheerful, like a warm little sun.
"Go away! Can't you see I'm applying the facial mask you prepared for me?" Li Taohua said disdainfully. "I thought you were going to run off with that brat from the Song family!"
"My mom is so cute when she's jealous!"
"roll roll roll!"
"Sister Luwu, stop busying yourself. Come here and let me help you apply a facial mask." Qin Huiyin greeted Tang Luwu.
"Ah? I want one too? No thanks!"
"Come here, let's put on a face mask together."
Song Ruize leaned against the wall and listened to Qin Huiyin's voice until it got dark, then he started to leave.
Mr. Tang San came out of Carpenter Zhang's house next door and saw Song Ruize walking in front of him. He shouted, "Song family boy, wait for me..."
Song Ruize hesitated for a moment, and finally stopped.
If it were in the past, he would definitely ignore it.
Third Master Tang caught up with him, looked at Song Ruize and said, "I heard from Erzhu that you are quite capable now. You are in charge of hundreds of people at such a young age."
"It's just a matter of being the first to stick your head out. It's nothing big." Song Ruize said calmly.
"You're doing very well now," said Mr. Tang San, "but it's not enough to just build a good relationship with your sister. You have to be able to see the signs."
Song Ruize didn't understand.
Third Master Tang laughed and said, "Silly boy, who does your sister care about the most? It's not those Tang family members, it's her mother. You have to make her mother like you, so that you and your sister can be as close as you want, and no one will stop you."
"She doesn't like me." Song Ruize frowned.
"Prescribe the right medicine for the right condition, kid." Master Tang San patted his shoulder. "You're so smart, I'm sure you'll understand."
Mr. Tang Sanye and Song Ruize walked together for a while, one went left and the other went right, and then they each returned to their own home.
Song Ruize was squatting in the yard pulling weeds.
It was already dark, and the light was getting scarcer, but there was still a figure squatting in the yard pulling out weeds. After pulling out the last weed, he gathered them up and placed them in the corner of the wall.
This house hadn't been cleaned for a long time. When he was hunting in the mountains, this house was dispensable. He spent more time sleeping in the trees than in this house anyway. Now he felt that he should have a place to live.
After Song Ruize cleaned up the yard, he took his change of clothes and went to the river. When he came back, he was damp. In such a cold season, he even took a bath in the river.
He touched the soft quilt.
He had never used such a comfortable quilt.
He lay on the bed, covered with a quilt. The coldness in his body disappeared, and the coldness in his heart also disappeared a lot.
