  Chapter 64 Chapter 64

   Song Jiyun's eyes flickered slightly.

  Who is this old woman?

   Such a big tone!

  The thought flashed by, and the old woman had thrown off the support of the young girl, and walked over in three steps at a time.

  Ms. Zhao Qi hurriedly went up to greet her, and said, "Old Aunt, why are you here?"

  The old woman nodded, but her eyes fell directly on Song Jiyun.

  Sister-in-law Zhao Qi met and said to the old woman: "This is Miss Li."

   Then he said to Song Jiyun: "This is our child's great-aunt. She is the most kind-hearted. The women in the village like to ask her for help when they have anything to do."

  Song Jiyun smiled and bent his knees to salute the old woman, calling her "Old Ann".

   "Ouch!" The old woman laughed, "I dare not take it." Then she praised her, "I only heard that Miss Li came, but I didn't expect such a beauty!"

  Everyone laughed.

  The old woman looked left and right, and said, "Where is Mr. Li? Why didn't you see Mr. Li?"

   "It's in the main room!" Aunt Zhao Qi answered.

  The old woman took Song Jiyun's hand into the hall.

  Yuan Yunzhong was standing in the middle of the main room. He was tall and long-legged, with star eyes and thin lips.

   There was a few moments of silence in the room.

  Everyone showed surprise on their faces.

The old woman even pushed Song Jiyun towards Yuan Yunzhong, and said with a smile: "I just said, Miss Li is so beautiful, what kind of person is worthy of Miss Li's infatuation. Seeing now Mr. Li, I understand now. Mr. Li has such good looks and talent, not to mention the Suzhou mansion, even if he looks at Jiangnan, he is probably the only one."

   She said, took two steps back, and couldn't stop praising: "Look! These two stand together, like a golden boy and a jade girl, and I have never seen anyone who is more suitable than them!"

  Everyone laughed playfully, said yes one after another, and started talking in twos and threes.

   "I have never seen such a handsome man as Mr. Li!"

"But you have to live a handsome life! According to me, they should stay with us as the old aunt said, and let's get married. After a few years, bring a few children back home, what else is there to say at home. "

   "Yes! Why go to Jingdezhen. The workshops in Jingdezhen need to be guaranteed by acquaintances. It's not so easy to find jobs."

   "But Mr. Li and Ms. Li's expenses and luggage were all taken away by the driver. If they get married, the pots and pans, bedding, and curtains have to be prepared..."

   "What's the matter! I'll let them use the two quilts I prepared for my girl first."

   "We have a new set of dishes at home."

   "We have a new pair of pillow covers at home."

  …

  Everyone is chattering, as if they are going to get married here soon.

  Song Jiyun was dumbfounded, and couldn't help looking towards Yuan Yunzhong.

  Yuan Yunzhong looked indifferent, with his eyes half closed, looking unmoved.

  Song Jiyun simply lowered his head shyly and let them discuss.

  Yuan Yunzhong's peripheral vision fell on the back of her neck.

   White and delicate as snow, clean and translucent.

  Yuan Yunzhong's eyes were deep, his Adam's apple slipped, and he quickly looked away.

  When the old woman saw it, her eyes flashed a few times, she smiled and yelled at the women, "Okay", and said: "You all don't say a few words, who is like you, shameless and skinless."

   Everyone covered their mouths with a smile.

  The old woman turned her head and said to Yuan Yunzhong embarrassedly: "My lord, forgive me! A country woman, I have never seen the world, so I am rude!"

  Yuan Yunzhong's expression remained unchanged, and he nodded calmly.

The old woman introduced herself: "Zhao Wu, who is in charge of the village, is my son. My son can draw, and we urgently need someone who can draw. Originally, Zhao Wu should talk to you about this matter to show sincerity." But Zhao Wu went out, and it took four or five days to come back, so I relied on the old to sell the old, and came to see the son.

   "Young Master, please stay and stay with us for a few more days. When Zhao Wu comes back, if you think it's inappropriate, it's not too late to leave."

   This tactic of slowing down the troops is well used.

   I'm afraid that the group of people who are chasing them will be waiting!

  Song Jiyun muttered in his heart.

  Yuan Yunzhong refused without thinking: "I'm not going to be a painter."

  The old woman smiled slightly. Glancing at Song Jiyun, he said with a smile, "It's a long way to Jingdezhen from here. You can make it. Ms. Li has never traveled far. How can Miss Jiao, who grew up in the riches, do it?"

  Yuan Yunzhong glanced at Song Jiyun's feet.

  Song Jiyun immediately expressed his opinion, gently pulled Yuan Yunzhong's sleeve, and whispered: "I, I can still go!"

  Yuan Yunzhong looked at her, his dark eyes were as deep as the sea, making it difficult to see his thoughts clearly.

   Song Jiyun was stunned.

  The old woman persuaded: "Mr. Li, Miss Li listens to you in everything. You can't let Miss Li down!"

  Yuan Yunzhong suddenly frowned slightly, looked at Song Jiyun with some embarrassment, and said, "Do you want to stay here?"

  Song Jiyun's mind was spinning quickly, but on the face he said meekly: "I can do anything, as long as I can be with the young master!"

  She looked at her with wide-open eyes, her eyes were shining like a halo of admiration.

  Yuan Yunzhong took a deep look at her, but said in a hesitant tone: "But this is in the deep mountains and old forests! I promised you to live a good life!"

  Song Jiyun hurriedly confessed: "But I want you to be happy. Only when you are happy can I feel at ease..."

   was interrupted by the old woman's laughter.

  She said: "Mr. Li, Ms. Li, as the old saying goes, the rich have distant relatives in the mountains, but the poor have no one to ask. Now that you have money, where can you not go?"

  Yuan Yunzhong listened thoughtfully.

The old woman looked dazzled, and continued: "Which adult can beat the child? If I were you, I would stay here for a few years, earn money, and return home with my wife and children. If you can’t accept it, you also have money to set up a family business and support your children, isn’t that better than anything else?”

  Yuan Yunzhong fell into deep thought.

  Song Jiyun couldn't help muttering: "It's just that we have already written to my aunt, saying that we will arrive in two days. If we stay here like this, she will definitely send people to look for it. We don't want to break our promise to her!"

  The old woman pondered: "Why don't you write another letter to your aunt."

  Song Jiyun smiled wryly and said: "My mother knew that I came to seek refuge with my aunt, so she tried a way to prevent the family from looking for me. If we failed to go to my aunt's house, I am afraid that my family members would also be attracted."

  The old woman thought for a while, and said: "Or you can go back to Jingdezhen first, and come over after you have made an agreement with your family?"

  Song Jiyun asked weakly: "I don't know what kind of errand this painting errand is? What to paint? How long? Well, how will the money be tied? I met my aunt so that she won't worry."

  If you had no interest in this errand, you wouldn't have asked so carefully.

  The old woman became more and more convinced that her strategy was useful.

  She laughed happily and said, "I'll talk about the details of what to paint when you come. But I promise, Mr. Li can earn at least fifty taels of silver a month."

  She promised some good things like lending money to them to get married, and lending them a house to live in temporarily.
