A pitiful Bai Tang never thought that five years after her mother passed away and her scumbag father ran off, leaving her to live alone, a great gift would fall upon her head. Who said pies don'...
Chapter 255 Wedding Gift
Song Tang's thoughts were wandering in the car, and she was almost dozing off due to fatigue, but Zhao Zihong's words woke her up immediately.
Looking at Song Tang who sat up straight with a start, Zhou Jing smiled helplessly. Her young lady's strong curiosity and desire to participate were really unmatched.
"A rural banquet. I've seen it many times on short videos. If your cousin gets married, is it appropriate for me to go?"
Although Song Tang was very interested in the village banquet and wanted to participate, he had to ask the people first whether it was appropriate for him to go.
"Hey, then there's nothing inappropriate. You can go with my parents then." Zhao Zihong said, and then saw that Song Tang was still a little hesitant. She really wanted to take Song Tang to experience more folk customs in Northeast China.
"Are you still worried? Well, I'll call my cousin and let him know." After saying that, he took out his cell phone and checked the time. It was not yet ten o'clock, so it was not too late.
Zhao Zihong called her cousin under Song Tang's expectant gaze. In fact, Song Tang was a little too cautious. In the Northeast, she was welcome to sit in the restaurant in her situation.
"Hey, cousin, have you rested? I want to tell you something." The call was quickly connected, and Zhao Zihong got straight to the point. "I came back from winter vacation this year, and a roommate and I came to visit our Northeast Ice City together."
"Roommate, is that the little girl named Song Tang that your parents talked about before?" The voice of Zhao Zihong's cousin came from the phone. The space in the car was not large, so everyone could hear it clearly.
"Yes, yes, that's her. I plan to take her with me to your wedding banquet the day after tomorrow, so I'm asking you in advance if it's convenient for you."
Zhao Zihong's cousin laughed and said, "What's the inconvenience? I'm so happy that your roommate can come to my wedding. Come together then, and I'll prepare delicious food for you."
Zhao Zihong raised an eyebrow at Song Tang who was looking at her, and then continued to chat with her cousin for a few more words.
Before hanging up the phone, Zhao Zihong's cousin reminded Zhao Zihong again to bring his roommates with him.
"So, I'll tell you. You're just worrying too much. Let's put it this way, we'll go together the day after tomorrow." Zhao Zihong said casually, holding Song Tang's arm.
Song Tang nodded and leaned her head on Zhao Zihong's shoulder. She had experienced the hospitality of the Northeastern people many times since she came to the Northeast.
Sometimes she was so enthusiastic that she couldn't handle it.
At this time, Zhao Zihong suddenly remembered something. She sat up straight, pushed Song Tang's little head back on the back of her own chair, and then smiled at the somewhat confused Song Tang.
"You can sit back down by yourself. Look outside, we're almost there. If you fall asleep on my shoulder again, I'll have to be very careful when I get off the bus."
It turned out that when she saw Song Tang leaning on her shoulder without moving, she remembered the day when they were visiting Central Street and how cautious she and Qiongying were after Song Tang fell asleep.
Originally, Song Tang thought that something was wrong with Zhao Zihong, but after hearing what she said, his face was instantly filled with black lines on his forehead.
This damn kid, his mouth will never heal for a while.
Zhou Jing was watching the interesting interaction between the two people in the back row and laughing secretly in her heart. Miss and Zhao Zihong often made each other lose face.
"By the way, how much money did you give as gifts to the wedding?" Song Tang suddenly remembered this and asked.
Although she has never experienced it herself, when her mother took her to attend such occasions when she was a child, she would give red envelopes and gifts to others.
"My parents talked about this yesterday, and they finally agreed on a gift of 5,000 yuan."
"After all, it's my cousin who's getting married. He's my dad's brother's son, and his nephew. If he's older, we don't have that much money, but if he's younger, it won't be appropriate."
"This was discussed by my parents and several uncles and aunts. As for other guests, generally around 500, and those with better relationships can spend 800 or 1,000."
Zhao Zihong briefly told Song Tang about their situation, then suddenly thought of something, looked at Song Tang and asked, "Why are you asking this? Are you still planning to give gifts?"
Sure enough, Song Tang nodded.
Zhao Zihong hurriedly said, "Don't do this, or you will be considered as ours."
Song Tang shook her head. It was not like that. She could not accept the kindness of others. Since she had decided to go to their banquet, there were some things that she could not miss.
Soon they arrived at the gate of Zhao Zihong's community.
When Zhao Zihong got off the car, she asked Song Tang if she wanted to get on board. Song Tang looked at the time on her phone and shook her head. Her watch was just a decoration, and she usually checked her phone to see the time.
"I won't go up. It's already past ten and almost eleven. I'm tired from playing today. It's too late."
"Let's talk about it later. Anyway, I will be able to see my uncle and aunt the day after tomorrow."
Zhao Zihong agreed and said hello to everyone before leaving. She knew everyone around Song Tang and was already very familiar with them. Whether it was the assistant or the bodyguard, she got along well with them.
Several cars on Song Tang's side were parked at the gate of the community until they saw Zhao Zihong disappear into the door of the building unit, and then they started driving towards the Ritz-Carlton.
The first moment he returned to the hotel, Song Tang did not see Song Da Nao Tou.
She took Zhou Jing and didn't look around, but went straight to the large curtains in the living room.
Sure enough, there was a cat growing on the big curtain in the living room...
Song Da's head was hanging on someone's big curtain again, but this time when it saw that the person coming was Song Tang, it jumped down by itself.
“Meow meow meow~~!”
The kitten was cursing as it walked, as if asking Song Tang and the others where they had been all day, why they came back so late from hunting, and whether they were injured.
Looking at Song Datou approaching with a chatterbox, Song Tang smiled helplessly and reached out to pick it up.
"Look at me, you've almost made their curtains tassel-shaped. I'll force you to work for them to pay off my debts."
"When the time comes, let others put you at the door as a welcoming cat." While scolding Song Dabotou, Song Tang carried it to its food and water bowl to see how the little guy ate and drank during the day.
Zhou Jing had been following behind Song Tang and watching her childish interactions with the kitten. When the young lady was interacting with Song Dabo, she was more like a little adult coaxing a child.
The kitten turned over and stretched comfortably in Song Tang's arms, then meowed twice at Zhou Jing who was smiling at it behind Song Tang.
It looks like he is still asking Zhou Jing, the chief steward, to judge the matter.
Before going to bed at night, Song Tang said to Zhou Jing who was about to close the door and leave: "Sister Zhou, give me a red envelope of 2,000 yuan."
Zhou Jing nodded. "Miss, you chose a good number. Too many would be overwhelming, and the relationship is not that serious."
If it's too little, even if we only have 500 or 800 yuan, we won't be able to afford it, right?
