Chapter 192 Neighbors Gossip
Qin Chi returned home for only one day.
Song Jin did not go to Liu Mansion that day. He stayed with Qin Chi at home. When he went to deal with things, he also went into his medicine room.
From the bottom compartment of the medicine shelf.
He took out several medicinal materials and began to make medicine. Among these medicinal materials was Golden Flower.
Song Jin''s prepared medicinal materials are excellent.
He also understands pharmacology and medicine.
What Qin Chi said on the carriage yesterday was truly heard by her. When she put herself in danger, she didn''t take it to heart.
But the family will be worried.
Now she is no longer alone. After being married for so long, she only now realizes that she really did not consider Qin Chi''s thoughts.
This drug only causes hallucinations and will not kill people. But there are no sequelae. You may feel a little dizzy when you wake up, and you may also experience nausea and vomiting, which is very similar to a hangover.
The medicinal powder has just been prepared.
About to put it into a small porcelain bottle.
"Tuk-tuk."
Qin Chi knocked on the door to signal.
The door was not closed. Song Jin looked up at the door and saw Qin Chi stepping into the medicine room against the sunlight. "Madam, you are so busy that you even forgot lunch?"
Song Jin raised his head and looked out the window.
It was indeed noon.
Qin Chi sat on a stool aside and looked at the bottles and jars in her hands. She was clearly finishing the work, "I heard Old Uncle Li say that you asked him to collect a batch of medicinal materials from the medical center and let him resell them and make a profit. One stroke.”
Song Jin did not deny it.
At that time, she was still thinking of working harder and helping them concoct medicinal materials.
However, Shun''an didn''t look for her.
This is obviously something a master has to solve.
Song Jin packed up and went to have lunch with Qin Chi.
Then, he went to the kitchen and made some pastries. After dinner, Qin Chi was going to the Imperial College, so Song Jin brought up a food basket.
"My husband, bring some pastries. You can use them to cushion your stomach when you are hungry at night." Song Jin did not send people to the Imperial Academy this time, but just sent them out the door.
Qin Chi saw so many pastries.
Then he knew that he was asking him to take it as a favor and give it to his classmates.
It would not be appropriate to give it to anything else, but some pastries from my hometown are just right.
But Qin Chi didn''t want others to eat the food made by his wife, because this was her wish.
Qin Chi took the food basket and said, "Thank you, madam."
He picked up the basket and got into the carriage.
Old Uncle Li drove away.
Song Jin stood for a while and was about to go back to the house.
"Hey, Madam Qin, is your scholar husband going to the academy?" A lady next door greeted with a smile, "Why are you going so late? Don''t you wait until tomorrow morning?"
Song Jin had no choice but to stand still and said politely: "Tomorrow morning I have a normal morning class, so there is no need to rush to go now. Aunt Kang, have you had dinner?"
"Not yet. By the time my man gets off work, my eldest grandson hasn''t come back from private school yet."
Aunt Kang came over in a few steps.
He looked around, then looked at the front door of Qin''s house, "Don''t you see Mr. Hong?"
"Uncle Hong is in the house."
Song Jin rarely saw people.
They live in the same house, but they live and eat in different places, and they don''t see each other every day.
Aunt Kang gossiped again: "I heard that your husband went to an academy to study. Which academy did he get admitted to? I haven''t heard of any academy accepting students."
Those little eyes are sneaky.
It was as if he was waiting for Song Jin to answer his questions.
Song Jin didn''t know what she meant, "Auntie, don''t you know where my husband-in-law goes to school?"
"Yeah, that old lady at the alley spread a rumor that your husband-in-law went to a run-down academy, the kind that no one wants and where there are very few students."
Mrs. Kang said a lot. After listening for a long time, Song Jin finally understood.
Look elsewhere.
Several neighbors were very curious. For example, there was a young daughter-in-law in the house opposite who was listening.
Aunt Kang added: "They say that famous academies recruit students in February and March every year."
Scholars who come from afar.
It’s not easy to live in a university, even if you don’t have personal connections, it’s difficult to get into school.
It''s just that this house doesn''t show off its beauty.
Enrolled quietly.
How did you get admitted? Isn''t this just speculation?
Some people say they went through the back door, others said they went to an unpopular academy, the kind that has no students and accepts those who sign up.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Not many good things to say anyway.
Song Jin didn''t want these people to ruin Qin Chi''s reputation, so he smiled and said: "My husband-in-law does not enroll in school at the normal time. I heard that he got the admission quota and said he could enroll at any time and take the entrance exam at any time. Still coming alone. I don’t know.”
Aunt Kang was stunned.
This doesn''t sound right to me.
"What''s the quota? Are you so powerful?"
Aunt Kang was extremely curious.
Song Jin knew that these people were nothing on the surface, but in their hearts they were probably waiting to see a joke.
It''s not that Song Jin has a dark heart.
There are certain people in this world who harbor ill will towards outsiders for no reason, as if the worse their lives are, the happier they will be.
Song Jin deliberately said calmly: "It''s nothing, it''s just a quota for Gongsheng students."
The next moment.
Aunt Kang''s smile froze, "Gong, Gongsheng, isn''t your husband a scholar?"
"Yes, my husband-in-law got Xiao Sanyuan, so the academic master over there gave my husband-in-law a place as a tribute student."
Song Jin didn''t want to show off, but he didn''t hold it back. He still said helplessly on the surface: "I didn''t say it before, but my husband-in-law stopped me. He said that these were just false names and not worth mentioning. I didn''t expect that the neighbors would misunderstand."
"Ouch, the soup is still simmering in the kitchen. I wonder if the fire has gone out. I''ll go take a look first and talk to Madam Qin when I have time." Aunt Kang didn''t wait for Song Jin to speak.
People just walked away in a hurry.
Qin Chi suddenly went to the academy and didn''t come home for half a month.
Song Jin often went out for a long time and had little contact with his neighbors, so he was misunderstood and some gossips started.
Song Jin might not care about it, but he couldn''t help but think that Qin Chi was a scholar.
Scholars value reputation most and need a good reputation.
When Song Jin went back, he happened to see the cook and the washing woman at home, looking at Song Jin with admiration.
The cook''s surname is Feng, and her family calls her Aunt Feng.
The woman who washed the clothes was named Pan, and everyone called her Mrs. Pan.
I heard that both of them were poor and had no children, but they were hard-working people and could make a living. When I arrived at the host''s house, I was also uneasy at first.
Later I found out that as long as they did their job well.
Both masters have good tempers and will not beat or scold anyone at all.
Song Jin smiled and said: "There are still some pastries in the kitchen. You can eat them and leave some for Uncle Hong and the others."
"Thank you ma''am."
"Thank you ma''am."
Chef Feng and Mrs. Pan looked happy.
Song Jin nodded and went back to the pharmacy, where he stayed until late at night.
Early the next morning, Song Jin went to Liu Mansion again.
Song Jin brought two boxes of cakes.
One box was given to the eldest maid Xiao Xi, and the other half was invited to the little girl and mother-in-law in the yard to eat together.
