Farmhouse Green Plum

Chapter 180 Confession

Seeing that Li was very disappointed, Second Uncle Song quickly supported her and advised: "Mom, don't be too sad. We have done our best. Even if I go to see my eldest brother after I die, I will have a clear conscience!"

Looking at Song Ying, Li shook her head in disappointment: "How could my Song family give birth to someone as stupid and stubborn as you! Forget it, you have a lot of tricks up your sleeve, I can't persuade you, do whatever you want."

After saying that, she told Uncle Song to untie the rope from the tree and drove the ox cart away.

After finally solving the matter, Song Ying breathed a long sigh of relief, but then she became a little worried. She was afraid that this matter would get to the ears of the masters of the Shen Mansion, and they would think that hiring her as a temporary worker was troublesome, which would bring a bad reputation to the Shen Mansion, and they would no longer employ her.

She wanted to go back to Shen Mansion, but when she turned around, she saw several maids peeking out from the back door.

Meeting her gaze, most of the maids shrank their heads back in embarrassment. Only Xiaolu, who was closest to her, asked with sympathy and concern, "Sister Song Ying, are you okay?"

"It's okay," Song Ying shook his head, raised a bitter smile, and walked towards Shen's house while saying: "Can I trouble you not to tell others about what happened today..."

The rest of the words got stuck in my throat the moment I walked in and saw Dr. Lin.

"Master, why are you here?" Song Ying subconsciously wanted to smile, but the flesh on his cheeks was very stiff.

It's over. If Dr. Lin saw this side of her, her new disciple would be gone. Who should she learn medicine from in the future?

Amid her embarrassment and worry, Dr. Lin nodded: "Let's go back and eat."

Worried that he might say something wrong in panic and cause irreparable consequences, Song Ying did not dare to explain and followed her nervously.

Doctor Lin took a few steps and suddenly stopped. He said to the maids, "I will have my own explanation for what happened today. Please don't let it spread all over the city."

After saying that, she walked away quickly.

Song Ying didn't have time to think and hurriedly followed, leaving the maids looking at each other in confusion.

After a while, a maid said, "Did I hear it wrong? Sister Song Ying seemed to call Doctor Lin "Master" just now?"

"You heard it right, she called Doctor Lin 'Master'!" another maid affirmed.

Xiaolu was surprised and envious: "Doctor Lin accepted Sister Song Ying as his apprentice! Sister Song Ying is so lucky! She was recognized by Doctor Lin!"

Someone said sourly: "Isn't it good luck? As soon as I came, I became an assistant to Doctor Lin. I only need to make medicinal food every day, and I can easily get the reward from the old lady.

We are not like that. We have to get up early and work late to wash vegetables, light fires, cut vegetables and chop meat. Not to mention getting rewards, it is hard for us to even see our masters!"

Because they were of similar age, Xiaolu quickly became friends with Songying and they had a very close relationship. Upon hearing this, Xiaolu immediately helped explain, "That's because Sister Songying can read and understand medical knowledge.

Two days ago, I was too sleepy while I was making a fire and accidentally burned my hands. My skin felt hot and painful. Sister Song Ying found a herb called rat tongue grass, mashed it, and applied it to me, and I felt much better. "

She stretched out her right hand: "Look, it's already forming a scab!"

"Hey, why do you think Song Ying can read?" Her words reminded everyone, and someone immediately asked in surprise: "Looking at the way her grandmother looks today, it doesn't seem like she would spend a lot of money to hire a teacher for her."

"Maybe her father was a scholar, but it seems that her father is dead."

Seeing that the maids were gossiping more and more, an older maid stopped them by saying, "Stop it. Didn't Doctor Lin tell you not to spread the gossip everywhere? If Doctor Lin hears about it, you will suffer the consequences!"

The maids curled their lips but dared not say anything else.

Doctor Lin is someone the old lady relies on, and all the masters in the mansion have to give her some face. Her words can decide their future.

At this moment, the Doctor Lin they were talking about was also asking Song Ying this question.

Song Ying answered vaguely: "My younger cousin started going to school this year. I watched him review his lessons every day. He learned a little bit..."

After thinking along the way, Song Ying sorted out some of his thoughts and knew what he should tell the truth about and what he should hide. As for the matter of learning to read, he had to insist that he learned it from Song Yuan. It was related to his reputation, so he had to be cautious.

"Did you come here without telling your family?" Doctor Lin asked again.

"Yes." Song Ying decided to tell the truth about this question. She immediately told them everything about how they collected herbs to make money without telling their family, and how they had a falling out with their family and moved out after the incident.

After hearing this, Doctor Lin remained silent for a long time. When her nephew begged her to let Song Ying come to help her, she only said that Song Ying was an orphan who had been living with others before and was now separated to live on her own. The house was broken and rotten and could not be lived in, but she did not explain the cause and effect.

It’s incredible to think that an orphan with no one to rely on started out by helping others record herbs and has gradually come to where she is today, becoming a girl who can read and know some herbs!

Thinking back on the time they had spent together, and remembering that he had just accepted her as his apprentice yesterday and intended to teach her medical knowledge, Doctor Lin admired her even more.

This is a girl who, even in a desperate situation, can struggle, seize every possible opportunity to climb up, and change her situation bit by bit!

Seeing that Doctor Lin didn't say anything, Song Ying was very nervous and quickly added: "Master, I'm not hiding anything. The rule of our Song family is that as long as it doesn't interfere with the work at home, the extra money earned by each room does not need to be handed over.

Although my parents are gone, every year my grandmother's birthday, winter clothes, and medicine for her previous illness are all paid for from my father's compensation, so I can have my own room."

Doctor Lin: “…”

The second branch of the Song family really refuses to suffer any loss, and they have to settle accounts clearly with their young niece.

She even gets the reputation of raising a niece, but in fact, even her elderly mother has to be supported by her young niece.

Looking at her anxious disciple, she sighed and said, "I don't blame you, I am just shocked at how you can be so powerful.

The name Song Ying suits you very well. You are really like a dandelion, seemingly weak and drifting, but actually extremely tough and strong. No matter where the wind blows you, you can take root and grow well. "

Song Ying's anxiety and worry disappeared, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up, "Thank you, Master, you are the fourteenth person who praised me for being so great.

However, the "Ying" in my name means falling petals, not dandelion. "

Although she quite liked her master's interpretation, she named herself Song Ying because the falling petals were really beautiful.

"The fourteenth?" Doctor Lin was stunned. She was curious about how many people could count them. "Who are the first thirteen?"

"My friends." Song Ying smiled, and of course there were Yuan Qing and Aunt Chen.
