Chapter 49: 21st Ticket

What should I do? I don’t want summer to end, but I really want to kiss her.

Xia Cun discovered that Jiang Song seemed to make this sound every day. This was because whenever he saw her, his eyes would always stop at her mouth. If she looked over, he would suddenly look away and unconsciously purse his lips.

Jiang Song is also very cute.

It is indeed difficult to dislike Jiang Song less before the end of summer.

What else can be done?

When Xia Cun finished the 88th little thing, he began to wonder what else he could do, but there were still five days left in the vacation.

Jiang Song will leave early in the morning on the second to last day of the holiday, which means they should say goodbye in three days. Before that, what else can they do?

She hadn't thought about it yet, but Miao Wen sent a message in the group: "Cunzhunbao, what gift are you planning to give Teacher Xiaolan for her birthday?"

Ever since she and Xiao Lan went to see Ren Yi's performance, Miao Wen, who had gone with her, had learned that Blue Glasses was Xia Cun's aunt. Although she had heard Xia Cun mention her aunt as a cartoonist, she had never connected the two. Perhaps the term "niece" had hindered her deduction. It was also after that that Miao Wen declared herself Blue Glasses' number one fan, and as a number one fan, she seemed eager to give Xia Lan a gift.

What kind of birthday gift can she give Xiaolan?

The images of Asta and Holmes flashed through Xia Cun's mind.

A Wire Fox Terrier would be a good choice, and Blue could be walked by the puppy every day.

But Xia Cun found that buying a dog was also very expensive. Xia Lan's birthday was at the end of September, and she only had one month left to prepare a gift. But even by September next year, she would not have saved enough money to buy a dog.

But what if she spent less? For example, she stopped eating children's playground meals and joint meal combos to collect McDonald's toys, and stopped buying new dolls and clothes. But it seems that this is not enough.

Xia Zunxing Zunxing: "How can I make money?"

Can you call me a villain?

You can call me a villain: "What are you thinking about?"

Miao language: "You are still young, our family does not need you to make money."

“…”

After learning that Xia Cun wanted to give Xia Lan a dog, Miao Wen suggested, "Well, that's easy. We can crowdfund a dog! How fun!"

Xia Cun refused without hesitation: "No."

Miao Wen wanted to persuade her again, but Ren Yi said to her, "Don't bother with her. Even ten oxen can't pull her back."

What's more, when it comes to giving a gift to Sister Xiaolan, this guy will not team up with anyone to send the same gift, even if it's classmate Jiang Song.

Jiang Song needed to attend a small private dinner at noon that day. After the news that he and Ms. Tanaka were about to return to Tokyo came out, many people contacted Jiang Cheng and Tanaka Haruka on the pretext of "farewell", expressing their hope to bring their children to "get together" with the young master.

Both of them knew that Jiang Song did not like such gatherings, and they refused everything they could. However, the one who proposed the farewell party that day was the young leader of the He family, and the Jiang family absolutely could not refuse the He family's kindness. Moreover, Jiang Song always followed He Shizhao during school, and it was true that he had delayed the other child's studies. Naturally, Jiang Cheng accepted this social invitation.

The morning before the luncheon, He Shiyan, Jiang Cheng and Tanaka Haruka were chatting on the golf course.

He Shiyan had proposed a small get-together with the Jiang family that day, and of course, he had a purpose in mind. However, his target wasn't the Jiang family, but the Tanaka family. While the domestic real estate market was sluggish, the Japanese market was performing strongly. With global capital eyeing the Japanese real estate market with optimism, He Shiyan had already set his sights on Tokyo. He was discussing a Tanaka family project in Aoyama with Ms. Tanaka.

Of course, during the conversation, he did not forget to mention the scene he saw on the yacht. An inconspicuous boy who didn't even dare to say that he was seasick came ashore early under Jiang Song's active care. This incident was a small episode, and he deliberately did not let the steward on the ship tell Mizuno Shinji, so now it has become a heartwarming news in Ms. Tanaka's ears, which can be said to cater to her needs very well.

Jiang Song was sitting in the rest area, and saw the three people chatting and laughing from afar. He was bored and sent a message to Xia Cun, and then he was stumped by a very difficult question.

He looked up and asked the boy sitting opposite him: "He-san, how much is your gardener's annual salary?"

He Shizhao looked at him expressionlessly and said calmly, "Sorry, I'm not interested in being a housekeeper."

Jiang Song snorted, turned around and called the housekeeper. After getting the answer, he sent it to Xia Cun, and then asked her why she asked this question.

On the other side, Xia Cun, having received the answer, looked at the numbers in disbelief. His mind couldn't help but imagine himself in a gardener's uniform watering flowers or pruning plants. He then replied to Jiang Song, "Because I really want to be a rich gardener."

Hayate: "Why?"

Xia Zun Zun Zun: "Because I found it's so expensive to buy a new puppy."

Jiang Songsui squinted his eyes and smiled on the other end of the phone, and began to give her some advice.

He Shizhao sat across from him and watched him for a long time. Seeing that he always had a pink bubble on his face, he finally asked, "Are you chatting with her?"

Jiang Song's smile faded after hearing this, and he mumbled, "What does this have to do with you?"

"It's none of my business. I just envy you. It seems like you have a lot to say to her."

He spoke openly, but Jiang Song became petty and looked up at him warily: "I'm warning you not to mess with her."

His threats were harmless, but such a weak man could always take the girl away.

He Shizhao's eyes flickered involuntarily, as if he had thought of something funny, and he actually smiled: "What will happen if you mess around? You're going back to Tokyo anyway."

Jiang Song frowned, as if thinking of how to fight back, and finally said shamelessly: "I will say bad things about you to her."

“…”

Seeing that he was speechless, Jiang Song narrowed his eyes and smiled at him, as if the frown just now was fake: "This is just a joke." He would never mention He Shizhao to her.

“…”

It was so childish, so childish that He Shizhao couldn't understand it.

He couldn't understand why Jiang Song was born in such a family and still had the right not to grow up. How much love and confidence did he have to have to be like him? He was really lucky and enviable.

"Jiang Song."

"Nana?"

"Since I've been your shield for a whole semester, please do me a favor."

Of course he knew why Jiang Song always followed him around school. He simply wanted to use him to avoid being surrounded by other people. Since he had been mistaken for being this guy's friend for a whole semester, he might as well let the misunderstanding continue.

"Okay." Jiang Song was very generous. He agreed casually before asking him how he could help.

He Shizhao also turned around to look at his brother who was still hitting the ball, smiled and said, "Take the blame for me and get out of here."

Wasn't he very good at leaving people behind? Now he didn't want to stay here, and he also wanted to experience the feeling of leaving someone behind, especially this person was his brother.

"What is a 'black pot'?" Jiang Song was still being inappropriately studious.

"What I mean is..." He Shizhao was about to explain, but he caught sight of the can of Coke on the table that Jiang Song had just ordered for him. He took it in his hand and gently tossed it towards him, "Carry the can."

Jiang Song barely caught it and looked at the guy who threw the blame on him.

Well, for the prince's virtue, he would agree to it.

Well, actually he also wanted to run away.

-

The idea of ​​giving a puppy was temporarily shelved because Jiang Song said that maybe Sister Xia Lan didn't need a new puppy now and should let her decide whether to raise a dog.

Xia Cun thought about it, seemed to think it made sense, and then a new idea came to his mind.

She can first give Xiaolan's puppy a gift, a dog bowl or a dog house. Although the puppy does not exist yet, it may be used in the future. Of course, this can also send a signal to Xiaolan that she will not be jealous of her wanting to raise a puppy.

She hopes Xiaolan can be happier and be like those people who keep dogs in the park.

"Xia Zunci, explain to me clearly why!" Ren Yi was so angry that she was about to be born and ascend to heaven, but this guy was still distracted.

She hadn't been to Xia Cun's house for a long time, but when she arrived this morning, she found that she had given the carousel away. Ren Yi felt her heart bleeding, even though it seemed to have nothing to do with her.

"Alright, little Lianyi, teenage hormones are just so fierce." Xia Lan said soothingly, then confidently ordered the girl, "Help me check if the coffee is ready."

Ren Yi had no choice but to turn around and go to the restaurant. Unfortunately, she heard a knock on the door just as she passed it.

She opened the door and was frightened and took a step back. She saw a big yellow duck pointed at her face. After a moment of surprise, the yellow duck was put down, and then she saw the spring and summer limited edition campus prince grinning at her outside the door.

Jiang Song looked puzzled after seeing the girl clearly.

Who is she? She looks like a killer.

Ren Yi didn't know what to say for a moment. She turned around and said to the living room, "Someone is coming." Then she went to the restaurant island to pour coffee.

Jiang Song came in holding the big yellow duck and silently placed it on the cabinet in the entrance hall. He said a little reservedly, "I saw it when I passed by a window and brought it here."

"What a great gift, Mr. Arigato Jiang Song." Miss Xia Lan warmly welcomed the arrival of the Big Rubber Duck, and then moved the Big Rubber Duck to the place where the Big Strawberry Bear had been dismembered by Holmes. "Not bad, I'll knit it a hat when winter comes."

"Could you knit me one too?"

Ren Yi came over with her coffee and just heard this. She put the mug on the coffee table and said, "I've never seen anyone asking for a gift right away."

Xia Lan smiled and picked up the coffee: "Xia Zuncheng, why don't you introduce the two children to each other? It's so rare that you have two of your friends at home."

Xia Cun had already hidden the thick photo album spread out on the sofa behind the pillow. He stood up, pointed at Ren Yi and said to Jiang Song, "This is my friend Ren Yi, Ren Nian Ersheng."

Perhaps it's a form of obsessive-compulsive disorder, but Ren Yi can't stand people mispronouncing her last name. She even changed her ID to "You can call me Xiaoren," hoping it wouldn't get mispronounced again. That's why Xia Cun emphasized this when introducing her.

"Hello, nice to meet you." Jiang Song greeted Ren Yi politely, then stared at Xia Cun, waiting for her to introduce herself.

Ren Yi did not respond to him in a friendly manner. She sat on the sofa with her arms folded and said to him, "I already know you. I don't need her to introduce you."

Xia Cun nodded and sat down, and Jiang Song had no choice but to sit down as well.

The three of them sat on the sofa like a row of little ducks. Xia Lan looked at them with a smile and asked, "It's almost time. What do you want for lunch?" Then she asked herself, "I haven't had pizza in a while. How about this? Does Jiang Song want to join us?"

"はい."

"Aren't you going to attend the luncheon?" Xia Cun asked.

Jiang Song proudly told the story of how he helped others and took the blame. Of course, he was hesitant and did not say that the person was He Shizhao.

"I think you just want to run away." Ren Yi took over the conversation on the girl's right.

"Yes." Jiang Song admitted as a matter of course on his left.

Ren Yi: “…”

Xia Lan pretended not to hear and continued to ask what flavors they wanted. After they finished ordering, she seemed to remember something and asked, "By the way, Xia Cun, have you seen the pizza magnet on my refrigerator?"

Although Xia Lan always forgets where she puts things at home, she still knows everything in the house, such as the refrigerator magnet that she is asking about now.

"..." Xia Cun looked at her silently, paused for a moment and said, "I gave it away."

Ren Yi, who was standing by, widened her eyes in disbelief. "Why do you give everything away? Even refrigerator magnets? Who are you giving them to?"

"Mr. Mizuno."

On the morning of her farewell to Mizuno, Xia Cun noticed the pizza magnet when she closed the refrigerator door and picked it off. Before parting, she gave the magnet to Shinji Mizuno, saying that perhaps the pizza in Rome would be delicious. Mizuno took the magnet and spread it in his palm. After looking at it for a long time, he said to the girl, "I will try it. Thank you."

Maybe he wants to go to Rome just to eat the best pizza in the world.

Ren Yi didn't know about Mizuno's secret, she just felt that this guy loved to give things away, which made her even more unhappy. Of course, it was mainly because she was still thinking about the Trojan horse. You know, that was something that Sister Xiaolan had worked so hard to get for her, but this guy actually gave it away.

"Hello, Jiang Song." She suddenly called Jiang Song's name.

"Hey." Jiang Song responded politely.

"What will happen to the wooden horse after you leave?"

Hearing this, Jiang Song looked up at the lazy sofa before answering the killer-like girl, "Don't worry, I've already bought a ticket for it."

The voice was gentle, and Xia Cun couldn't help but have a fantasy in his mind from hearing it.

Her pony would sit on the heavy cruise ship, cross the blue and seemingly endless sea, through the silvery moonlight sprinkled on the sea, and arrive at Tokyo Port.

Maybe one day, she will cross the ocean, find her pony and bring it home.

-----------------------

The author has something to say: The next chapter will be finished, Mina-san [poor]

If ponies really do leave, why isn't this a comic plot? Imagine a beautiful pony standing on a cruise ship at night, looking at the dark sea and the moon. Years later, the owner who brought it home (the black cat version) travels across the ocean to find it. I want to watch this animation [poor thing]

Well, when Xia Cun had the idea that she could be a gardener, I suddenly had an idea when I was writing this chapter and found that it seemed to be possible!

I think Xia Zuncheng is perfect for gardening clothes—those tattered, muddy overalls and aprons, tending the garden. I won't write about it, but it feels like she's finally finding her way. Gardening is a kind of handcraft, after all. Such a clever kid! [Hug][Hug] Oh my god, this is so adorable!

Ok ok, too much mental theatre today ^ ^
