Song Zhining looked at her with disdain. If it weren't for business matters, she wouldn't want to bother with this dissolute person at all.

But to be honest, the Hua family is indeed a ruthless group. They eat other people's goods at will and even have a very good control over goods from various countries.

This time it was for the first batch of iron and gold mines of the Jin Kingdom. Bai Xiangnan seemed to not get along with this woman surnamed Hua, but Song Zhining was curious because this woman surnamed Hua seemed very enthusiastic towards her.

Moreover, their Hua family is one of the richest families in the country, and she suspected that those with the surname Hua in Luoshan Village might be relatives of the Hua family in Kyoto.

"I won't lie to you anymore. How much do you want to sell the goods to us?"

Song Zhining looked at her solemnly. Madam Hua took a sip of wine, touched the man's hand and said.

"Mrs. Song, do you want to have an affair with me? I'll pay you 100 taels of silver a month, how about that?"

One hundred taels of silver?

To be honest, Song Zhining was a little tempted, but she was still very principled and would never stab anyone in the back.

"No need, I've done a good job under Sister Bai, just name a price!"

"You guys go down."

Hua Qing waved her hand, and the male escorts quickly left the room. Only then did Hua Qing become serious.

"One hundred kilograms of iron ore costs one or two thousand taels. No bargaining. This is the lowest price I can give you."

After thinking it over, Song Zhining nodded and said.

"Okay, I'll give you the money and the goods tomorrow."

The job was done, and Song Zhining walked out of the brothel as if a ghost was chasing him.

Hua Qing smiled and called three more male servants to serve her. However, this time a young lady with an outstanding figure walked in from outside. She was handsome and always had a faint smile on her lips.

She was wearing expensive silk and satin, with a jade pendant hanging around her waist, her hair was combed meticulously, and there was a small mole at the corner of her eye that added a touch of charm to her.

"Uncle, I hope you didn't embarrass Aunt Song."

Hua Qing looked at Hua Rong with a faint smile, feeling very upset. Her goods were of the highest quality. If she wanted to buy them without 10,000 taels of silver, she could only dream on.

"Are you still worried about your uncle's work?"

Hua Qing looked at her handsome face, smiled and said.

"Your father's nephew has been living in the elegant garden next door to you. Don't you have any thoughts on this?"

Thinking of this incident, her eyes dimmed slightly and she seemed a little unhappy.

"If he wants to live there, then let him live there! I don't live at home, and my mother has plenty of ways to deal with my father, and my grandmother's family is overreaching."

She poured herself a cup of tea, took a sip, then stood up, straightened her clothes and left.

There is only Jing Ge'er in her heart, and there is no room for anyone else.

Hua Qing shook her head. She couldn't understand this niece who not only spent a lot of money to buy rare items every year, but also went to the best clothing store to buy clothes for boys.

However, she was interested in the boy she had her heart set on.

Song Zhining told Bai Xiangnan that Hua Qing wanted to buy them high-quality iron ore, and Bai Xiangnan was very surprised.

"Why would she sell it to you at such a low price? Is it a scam?"

Song Zhining patted his chest and said.

"No, we'll know when we take a look tomorrow. This 100 kilograms is a lot. After deducting the cost, we'll make a lot of money!"

Her happy expression made Bai Xiangnan doubt his life.

The next day, when Bai Xiangnan received the goods, he felt so light-headed and it was so unreal.

However, after getting the goods, she had other plans. She asked Song Zhining to take 20 kilograms of high-quality iron and follow the caravan back to Changshu County, and she would return later.

When Song Zhining heard this, her eyes lit up immediately. It had been almost a year! She was finally going home, and she didn't see the trace of guilt that flashed through Bai Xiangnan's heart.

This time, when she came to Kyoto, it is no exaggeration to say that she earned more than two thousand taels of silver. Her blacksmithing skills and the ability to make custom weapons for people were simply too easy to come by.

So, in July, she set out on her journey home. Hua Rong watched her get on the boat before turning around and leaving. The two female guards beside her looked confused.

Changshu County.

On the fifth day, he finally met Wen Bo, but Song Yu behaved very well.

Wen Bo had a serious and dignified look on her face, but she was indeed quite capable and the essays she talked about were all well categorized.

But her character was somewhat lacking. After teaching for three consecutive days, she left Changshu County in a hurry. After all, she was from Kyoto.

Song Jushu asked Song Yu to write a review after listening to the lecture. Song Yu drew a few pigs playing for her that day. She was silent for a moment, then called Song Yu into the house and asked.

"Yujie, why did you draw these pigs? Do you have any opinion on Mr. Wenbo's essays?"

Song Yu thought for a moment and said.

"Grandma, we have different opinions. I don't want to know too much about Ms. Wenbo's essays. Her essays are simply taken out of context and are meaningless."

Song Yu said that Wen Bo’s essays were worthless. That’s right, he was referring to Wen Bo’s own essays, not others’.

"The reason I drew those pigs is that Wenbo can only deceive people who are like pigs."

Song Jushu;…………………………

"Is the milk one of them?"

Song Yu;……………………This is a question that will lead to your death.

"Haha! Grandma, of course you're not! You can't wake up in time!"

Indeed, if you think about it carefully, it is really true. Can't the poor rise up? Farmers should not study, but should just work hard in the fields?

All these things she said were brainwashing ideas, which cleverly hinted to scholars that they should not get involved in such lowly matters.

It also implies that scholars have their own pride and aloofness, and should not lower their status.

So Song Yu became impatient when she started talking about her essays, but her grandmother was still listening with great interest.

Didn’t she pull back a lost lamb?

Song Jushu;……………………

Sometimes, just mechanical reading won’t work, you need to use your brain flexibly.

Song Jushu was also reflecting on himself. He was almost misled by Wenbo. Although she was smart, wasn't she a little rigid in literature?

While having dinner in the evening, Song Yu watched her grandmother hand her a letter.

Her face froze for a moment. Could it be that her mother had written back again?

"Read it to your father later! There's a letter from your mother."

This time, Song Yu put on a double mask of pain.

With a smile on his face, he agreed.

"Yeah, I understand."

After dinner, she went to Ma Taozhi's room and read to his father, but there was a new piece of news, that is, her mother was coming back.

After coming out, her grandmother asked skillfully.

"You...what did your mother say?"

Song Yu;……………………

"Nothing special, except that she might be back in August."

Song Jushu smiled rarely, then walked away.

Her grandmother must be thinking about her mother in her heart! Otherwise, she would ask about her every time she received a letter. It might be out of her deep maternal love!

Song Zhining;……………………I’m a little scared when you think like that.
