The Sickly Scion's Petite Wife Is Sweet And Cool

Chapter 109: Intentions

Perhaps because he didn’t want Madam Li to worry, Song Jingchen didn’t tell her about Shen Yijia’s injury. However, he couldn’t hide the fact that her hand was bandaged.

However, she only said that she was scratched by a tree branch. Even so, Madam Li had the same reaction as Song Jingchen and told Shen Yijia not to go up the mountain again.

Shen Yijia tried her best to persuade Madam Li to relent, but the prerequisite was that she had to recover from her injuries.

Shen Yijia had the same intentions. She was thinking of eating the wild ginseng and lingzhi she had dug up to digest them.

Unfortunately, Lin Shao was glared at for the entire day because he betrayed Shen Yijia.

Lin Shao felt wronged. Brother Song’s gaze was so terrifying. Who could have withheld the truth from him? He had been under a lot of pressure, but he didn’t tell anyone about Shen Yijia looking for wild ginseng and lingzhi.

At night, just as Shen Yijia lay down, Song Jingchen suddenly raised his head from the book and asked her, “You said that all the animals on the mountain disappeared today?”

“That’s right.” Shen Yijia nodded. After saying that, she felt strange. “I saw a lot of them when I went up the mountain yesterday, but they suddenly disappeared today. They couldn’t have been scared away by me, right?”

Shen Yijia was simply joking. She knew she didn’t have the ability to scare them away like that.

Song Jingchen frowned and pondered. After a long time, he made up his mind and said, “Take out some of the money at home and buy some rice and noodles.”

“Just rice and noodles?” Lying in the warm bed, Shen Yijia was a little sleepy and asked in a daze.

This time, Song Jingchen didn’t hesitate. “Yes.”

“Alright, I’ll listen to you,” Shen Yijia muttered and completely sank into her dreams.

The next day, Shen Yijia woke up early.

She remembered what Song Jingchen had said before she went to bed yesterday. Although she didn’t understand, based on what she knew about Song Jingchen, he definitely wouldn’t say that if there wasn’t a reason. After all, he usually didn’t care about these things.

After breakfast, Song Jingchen mentioned this matter again, and no one objected.

Shen Yijia was about to leave with the silver when Song Jingchen suddenly said, “Take the ornaments I made and sell them.”

Shen Yijia was a little reluctant. Song Jingchen spent almost all his time carving those things. She watched him sit there alone making them.

Now, Song Jingchen would only have time to read books when he took a break from carving. It could be seen how much effort those trinkets took.

“Our family is rich. Let’s leave those at home,” Shen Yijia suggested.

Song Jingchen shook his head. “No need. If you like them, I’ll make more for you in the future.”

Seeing that Shen Yijia was still unwilling, Song Jingchen said, “I don’t want to be a piece of trash who only knows how to leech off my wife. My legs may be crippled, but I still have my hands.”

Shen Yijia choked. She recalled what the people in the village had said about Song Jingchen. He must have planned to make these things in exchange for money.

“Oh.” Shen Yijia didn’t persuade him anymore. Song Jingchen wanted to help this family, so she shouldn’t stop him. Otherwise, Song Jingchen would definitely overthink the situation.

She carried the wooden box onto the carriage and was about to set off when Lin Shao chased after her with a box.

“Sister-in-law,” Lin Shao shouted. Because he spilled her secret, he didn’t dare to look at Shen Yijia directly.

Shen Yijia’s anger had long dissipated. “What’s wrong?”

“I want to go to town with you. I made some spices and can use them to exchange for some money to help the family.” The Song family was very good to him and his sister, so he wanted to help.

Back then, he would not have dared to do so. However, that Feng Laoliu was dead, he felt more at ease.
