The Valiant Farmgirl’s Blackhearted Husband Wants a Hug

Chapter 90 - 90 Chapter 90: Reincarnated Person



90 Chapter 90: Reincarnated Person

“No, I didn’t mean it that way,” he hurriedly said. Mr. Wang was afraid of offending Song Que.

Song Que’s lips curled into an icy smirk.

“Our Song family hailed from a famous family. If it weren’t for the fact that we had to avoid disaster, my father wouldn’t have brought the whole family to this Mountain Spring Town to live in seclusion.”

“How laughable, to actually end up in such a plight…”

“Never mind. Just take it that I didn’t come to your bookstore today.” With that, Song Que stood up again.

Mr. Wang’s expression changed again.

“There’s no need to do this! Mr. Song, surely there’s no need to do this?” He hurriedly tried to stop him again.

“I have been too indiscreet. Please forgive me, Mr. Song! Please don’t take it to heart! Please don’t take it to heart!” Mr. Wang apologized frantically as he tried to stop Song Que.

He had indeed never read the book that Song Que had brought to him titled ‘Teacher Wen Yuan’s selected works.’

However, he had heard of some of the phrases.

When he flipped through the book just now, he was already 70% sure that the book was authentic.

Now, after hearing Song Que’s self-introduction that he hailed from a famous clan, coupled with the fact that Mr. Wang had always felt that Song Que had an extraordinary air about him and was different from ordinary people, he believed Song Que even more.

Song Que’s talent was indeed exceptional.

Before he entered the Academy, he had been taught by his father, so it was possible that he had read many books.

If it were in the past, in order to keep the sole extant copy a secret and reduce competition…

It was also possible that the Song family did not sell these books to the public.

However, now that Father Song had passed away, and Song Que had to observe mourning for at least three years, he didn’t even have the right to sit for the exams.

In addition to the Song family’s current difficulties, it was understandable that Song Que would make such a decision.

At the thought of this, Mr. Wang was even more certain that the book in Song Que’s hands was authentic.

He then spoke, “50 taels then! 50 taels it is! Mr. Song!”

Only then did Song Que stop struggling and look at Mr. Wang again.

Mr. Wang smiled apologetically at Song Que before releasing him.

“Please wait a moment, Mr. Song. I’ll go get the silver now.” He then cupped his hands in a salute to Song Que and left.

Looking at Mr. Wang’s back as he left, the corners of Song Que’s lips curved up slightly. He then placed the book on the table again.

His beautiful, slender fingers tapped rhythmically on the book cover.

Before long, Mr. Wang returned.

He was also holding a tray covered with a cloth.

“Please check, Mr. Song.” After that, he placed the tray on the table.

Song Que glanced at Mr. Wang.

Only then did he reach out to remove the cloth.

Then, he saw 5 pieces of 10 taels silver ingots on the tray.

Upon seeing this, Song Que’s eyes did not waver.

“It’s too heavy to carry around. I’ll have to trouble Mr. Wang to prepare a box,” he said.

When Mr. Wang saw Song Que’s calm attitude, he was even more convinced that Song Que was really from a prestigious family.

“No problem! I’ll make the arrangements,” Mr. Wang answered.

He left again.

Then, after a while, he returned with a small box.

Only then did Song Que reach out to take the silver, picking up all five silver ingots and placing them into the box.

Then, he closed the box and put it aside.

Following that, he passed the book to Mr. Wang.

Mr. Wang’s eyes lit up.

After receiving it, he quickly flipped through it.

Previously, he was too anxious and in a hurry to ask questions, so he didn’t look too carefully.

Looking at it again now, Mr. Wang felt that his money was well spent.

This was definitely the authentic Teacher Wen Yuan’s selected works. Who else but Teacher Wen Yuan could have such a writing style and select such a choice of words and sentences?

Song Que saw Mr. Wang’s expression and did not disturb him.

He simply waited with an indifferent expression.

He waited until Mr. Wang had finished reading more than half of the book. Mr. Wang then put the book down in amazement.

“Teacher Wen Yuan is really an exceptional genius!” Mr. Wang sighed again and looked at Song Que.

Song Que nodded lightly.

Only then did Mr. Wang restrain his emotions.

“Mr. Song, you said earlier that you have other books?” he asked Song Que.

“Yes.” Song Que nodded.

“May I ask which titles?” Mr. Wang immediately looked at Song Que expectantly.

Song Que opened his mouth and listed the names of the five books.

They were all works of famous scholars that had vanished from the market.

Mr. Wang’s eyes lit up when he heard that.

“You… you’re willing to sell all of them?” he asked.

Song Que glanced at Mr. Wang and nodded.

“They are all 50 taels of silver per volume. If Mr. Wang is willing to buy them all, these five books will be 240 taels.”

Mr. Wang pondered for a while.

If it was 50 taels for one volume, the total price should be 250 taels.

This Mr. Song was no pushover. He only gave him a discount of 10 taels of silver.

However, based on the situation just now, this Mr. Song was not good at bargaining. In fact, he was quite stubborn.

If he wanted to negotiate the price, it was basically impossible.

So if it was 240 taels, then so be it.

These were all books that could be passed down as family heirlooms. He would just treat this as an investment to build up the foundation of his family.

That was right. Even though he was running a bookstore, he didn’t want to use these books to make money. Instead, he planned to keep them as his collection.

After all, his two sons had not given up on the Imperial examinations.

Even his grandchildren would take this path in the future.

As a father and a grandfather, he did not have such an ability. He had worked hard for most of his life but only managed to pass the county-level examinations.

After that, he taught at the Cirrus Loft Academy for a while before leaving to open this bookstore.

However, he still hoped that his children and grandchildren would be able to go further and pass the provincial-level examinations.

For the Wang family to truly become a family of scholars, they had to accumulate their knowledge slowly.

He might as well start with himself…

“Deal!” Thus, Mr. Wang agreed.

Song Que’s eyes finally showed some visible fluctuations.

“Also, there’s one more thing I’d like to trouble Mr. Wang with.” Then, he cupped his hands at Mr. Wang.

“Oh… please speak, Mr. Song.” Mr. Wang quickly returned the greeting.

“I want to buy a courtyard dwelling in Mountain Spring Town. I hope Mr. Wang Can help me look out for one.”

Mr. Wang was stunned.

“May I ask what kind of courtyard dwelling you are looking for?”

“It doesn’t have to be too big, as long as it can satisfy the needs of a family of five. It’s best if there’s a well in the yard, and the price should be under three hundred taels of silver,” Song Que said.

The six books were sold for a total of 290 taels. If he asked that woman to add more, it would not be a problem to make up 300 taels.

That was right. He had thought through this matter over the last few days.

It was impossible to save enough money to buy a courtyard dwelling in town before autumn by relying on that woman to go up to the mountains and down to the rivers.

After much thought, the matter of buying a courtyard dwelling still depended on him.

Fortunately, he had a good memory.

After remembering some of the books he liked, he could almost repeat them verbatim and write them down from memory.

Otherwise, he really could not think of a way to earn this sum of money.

That was correct. He had been reborn. He was reincarnated on the day his leg was injured.

In his previous life, after he had injured his leg, that woman had hung herself to death.

After that, the Qin family came to help bury the woman and thereafter ignored the Song family.

Following that, his leg was completely crippled because he had no money to treat it.

Thereafter, it was a hot summer, and there was no rain for days. A few provinces around Zhao County experienced a great drought.

When Mother and Yun’er went to River Ringwaters to get water, they fell in and never returned.

After that, he and Ye’er finally managed to hold on until autumn.
