Chapter 85
The matter of Song Hutou getting married became a big problem for the Song family, causing Fang Shi to get a headache every time she saw him.
It's not really Song Hutou's fault, it's just that his standards are a bit high. After getting used to his smart and capable sister, when he looked at other girls, he always felt like they were slightly lacking.
And what made him most sad was that he liked his sister's maid, Zhenshu, but Zhenshu didn't like him and instead liked the eldest brother in the General's house.
That brother was tall and good-looking, but he was just a purchaser after all. How could he compare to him?
He used to be the youngest shopkeeper in town!
"I want to go out for a walk." Song Hutou thought for a long time, and finally spoke to Song Dingxiang, "Sister, I want to go out and take a look outside."
Song Dingxiang was playing with her own children, both of whom were almost a year old, which was a fun time. They loved to smile and didn't cry much, letting her do whatever she wanted, which was really fun.
She didn't understand at first, saying, "Go ahead, who's stopping you. No, what's wrong with you today, you had to come to me specially before going out?"
Song Hutou said, "Of course I have to tell you, don't you know Mr. Wang? I want to go out with his caravan."
Song Dingxiang finally understood, she looked at Song Hutou and said, "You mean you want to go outside the county, to explore other places?"
"Yes," Song Hutou scratched his head, picked up his little nephew and held him in his arms, "I heard the people in the caravan chatting that day, talking about the local products and customs, very interesting. But I have never seen them. I'm not as smart as my second sister, who can figure out food after reading a few books, nor as steady as my eldest sister, let alone as educated as my younger brothers. But I want to go out and see the world."
Song Dingxiang looked at her daughter crawling around the room and asked, "Does Mother know about your idea?"
"I haven't told Mother yet, if you agree, Mother won't make it too difficult for me. If even you don't agree, Mother probably won't let me go at all. Second sister, I really want to go and have a look outside."
Song Dingxiang didn't say anything. If this was a time of peace, where you could buy a train or plane ticket and travel easily, she wouldn't mind.
But now, no matter where you go, it will take a long time, and the way may not be peaceful. Although her brother followed her husband to learn some martial arts, these ostentatious movements may not be of much help in a real situation.
But Song Hutou was still a man, and she hoped her younger brother could be a knowledgeable and capable man. It's just that the risk is a bit too big.
"I'll think about it, these days I will think it over and discuss it with your brother-in-law. Actually, the outside world is not as beautiful as you think, most of the people in the caravan have experienced many dangers to stay safe. It's not that I don't want you to go, but as your sister, I am worried about your safety. So I need to think about it carefully."
"Okay." Song Hutou also knew that this matter was not urgent. After playing with his little nephew for a while, he returned to the grocery store.
"Actually, it's good to go out and explore, Hutou is already eighteen. As the saying goes, traveling thousands of miles is better than reading thousands of books. This time, he's going out with the Wang family's caravan, Zhou Ge said he will arrange two guards to accompany him, so there won't be any danger." Song Dingxiang slowly convinced her old mother.
