Chapter 233 4 Years Like Water
Time speeds up at a certain stage in life, and it seems that people grow up in the blink of an eye.
Song Sanniang's life was the same. While she was working hard and living her life seriously, four years passed in the blink of an eye.
A lot of big and small things happened in these four years. The people around her experienced major life events such as getting married, having children, taking scientific examinations, etc. Everyone grew up through these things.
Miss He gave birth to a son two years ago, and Young Master He also passed the imperial examination and became the top scholar. He is now serving in the Hanlin Academy.
His wife gave birth to a daughter three years ago and a son this year, so he now has both a son and a daughter.
Qin Haodong also got married. His wife was the daughter of a shopkeeper at the Guangling Mansion branch.
It was fate that he found Qin Yuanyuan in Guangling Mansion. Unexpectedly, his wife was also a girl from Guangling Mansion. He got married later than Qin Yuanyuan, and his wife was just three months pregnant.
Qin Haoxi successfully passed the examination for the title of Scholar this year, and ranked first. He no longer lives in Tian Mi Mi.
Qin Haodong bought him a small house near the college and assigned him a servant to take care of his daily life. However, when he was resting, he would go to Tian Mi Mi to eat.
After Song Zhongxiao and Qin Yuanyuan got married, they had a daughter. After he passed the examination for the title of scholar, he did not continue to take the exam. He opened a private school in Songjia Village to teach children in Songjia Village and the surrounding areas who wanted to study.
Song Liyi and Yan Ying'er later got married and they had a son. He wanted to take the imperial examination, but his foundation was weak and he failed the first time. Now he is preparing for the second time.
The three Liu Zezheng brothers who used to work as waiters in Tian Mi Mi are now independent and have been sent to nearby branches to be the head shopkeepers.
Including Song Zuren, Song Ming, Li Xian from Song's second aunt's family, Han Changming from Song's third aunt's family,
They got married and had children according to their ages, completing the major events in life.
Ever since Mrs. Song saw that Old Second Song had a son, she couldn't stop regretting it. She regretted kicking her son out of the house and regretted not waiting for a year or two.
Amidst all the mixed emotions, she fell ill. She was bedridden for a long time and passed away a year ago.
After seeing his mother off, Song Lao Er felt as if he had put down a heavy burden. He was actually not without emotions.
One is his own mother, the other is his own home. He hates his mother, but this hatred is mixed with guilt towards his mother.
This was the grace of raising a child and the blood relationship that could not be severed, so his heart was very complicated. It was not until Mrs. Song left that he finally let go of all the entanglements in his heart.
Song Ersao was soft-hearted when Song Pozi fell ill. After all, she was not a bad person, although she once hated this mother-in-law and hated her for not being kind to her children and herself.
But she was living a good life now, and she no longer cared about Mrs. Song in her heart. However, she took her children to visit her just out of pity for the elderly.
Upon receiving the news of her death, Song Laoer and his family rushed back in time to take care of the funeral arrangements with Song Laoda and his family.
After Song Zhongxiao and Song Dasao got married, they sent them back home. However, she was not used to the life at home.
Everything at home seemed strange. Song Zhongxiao and Song Liyi did not live with Song Lao Da. Song Lao Da built a new house for them. The two brothers' houses were together so they could take care of each other.
Sister-in-law Song lived in the old house with Boss Song, but Boss Song was busy with sweet things, leaving early and coming back late, and he had nothing to say to her.
The villagers were busy doing farm work and making bamboo cups and bowls to sell to Song Lao Er to make money.
She herself felt that people looked at her differently, so she basically stayed at home, but no one talked to her and she felt very lonely at home.
Song Zhongxiao had to attend classes on weekdays, and Qin Yuanyuan was not idle either. She was in charge of the general accounts of all the branches of Xiantao Mansion, and she had a lot of things to do.
Song Liyi and his wife rented a house near the college and lived there instead of at home, only coming back during the holidays.
Even if Mrs. Song wanted to find her son and daughter-in-law, it was unrealistic. In the end, she told Boss Song that she wanted to go back to the temple. Boss Song was silent for a while.
"Have you made up your mind? We are not kicking you out."
"Well, I've thought about it. There's nothing I can do at home. I can still go back and chant some sutras with everyone and have someone to talk to."
Mrs. Song's face has become old, and she no longer has the arrogance she had when she was young. The years of vegetarianism and chanting Buddhist scriptures have really smoothed her temper.
Without consulting his two sons, Mr. Song drove her back himself. However, this time, he paid money to the people in the temple to take care of her, because she did not come here to repent, but she did not want to leave.
Song Sanniang has realized her original wish over the years, and Tianmi Mi has indeed blossomed all over the country of Chen.
Just as she had expected, she gradually delegated the tasks at hand to available people under her, and she only needed to review and summarize every month.
She really took Master Hu with her to travel around, and Si Niang and her two companions also accompanied them. They studied while traveling.
Most of them followed the Jin family's caravan. There were Jin family caravans everywhere in Chen State. The Jin family had already made arrangements, so their safety was completely guaranteed.
When they needed to travel by land, they would follow the Jin family's caravan. They had traveled to many places over the years.
They traveled from south to north, from north to south, as they pleased. Wherever they wanted to go, they would immediately plan their route, pack their luggage, tell the Jin family caravan, and then board the ship according to the caravan's departure time.
They have seen towering mountains, traveled through beautiful landscapes, experienced the gracefulness of the Jiangnan water towns, and felt the profound history of the Central Plains.
They galloped on horses in the vast grasslands, and they leisurely painted in the beautiful scenery of Huizhou's ink-splashed landscapes.
They eat hot pot wrapped in mink fur in the north where thousands of miles of ice and snow are falling, and stroll on the beach under the blue sky and blue sea in the southernmost part of the country where sweat is pouring down.
They explored the unknown world to their heart's content. They were so lively and flourishing. In this feudal country, they lived the way they wanted.
Sometimes they would bring Song Laoer and his wife and their younger brother along to travel together, letting the couple know that they were safe and living well outside, so Song Laoer and his wife felt at ease letting them travel around.
Their skin is no longer fair, their hands are no longer soft, their words and deeds are no longer in line with the rules,
But their eyes are firm. They have seen the vast world and know that life has infinite possibilities. This is what they have gained from traveling over the years.
