Chapter 116 Gift



All the people queuing up here for Song Tingzhi are men, and there are almost no women.

Song Tingzhi packed up and looked at the long queue. He was shocked, but he didn't show it on his face.

He told the people in the queue in advance that there was not much venison, and the people in the queue did not make any suggestions, saying that one pound per person would be enough and not to buy more.

Seeing this, Song Tingzhi didn't say anything and started selling venison.

Song Tingzhi priced venison at one hundred coins per catty, but no one thought it was too expensive and everyone bought it readily.

After a while, the venison was almost sold out. Seeing that there were still people queuing, Song Tingzhi told them that he would post a notice in advance when these things were available next time.

When they found out they couldn’t buy it, they didn’t get angry. They just blamed themselves for not getting a seat in the front and left one after another.

Seeing that everyone had left, Song Tingzhi put all the utensils into the house, washed the knives, and got rid of the smell before going into the house to call Jiang Cheng to get up.

After Jiang Cheng got up, she could still faintly smell blood, but fortunately the baby in her belly did not make any objection.

The Chinese New Year is about twenty days away. Jiang Cheng thought about staying for another five or six days and then going back with Song Tingzhi. Before leaving, Xu Sanniang told Song Tingzhi to go back and kill the pig.

Jiang Cheng still remembered that he had mentioned this to Song Tingzhi, and Song Tingzhi had the same plan.

Jiang Cheng plans to clean up the shop in the next few days so that he can go home for the New Year.

Jiang Cheng was selling tofu as usual in the morning. Now the mountain was blocked by heavy snow, so Song Tingzhi didn't go up the mountain. He just happened to accompany Jiang Cheng to clean up the shop.

In the afternoon, I would go to Fang Xi's place to talk for a while, play with Hu Wa, or stay at home, and five or six days would pass quickly.

Early in the morning, Song Tingzhi sealed the back of the donkey cart tightly to prevent any cold wind from getting in.

Then he helped Jiang Cheng load the things he wanted to take back into the car, carefully helped him in, and locked the door himself.

Jiang Cheng had already told Fang Xi and the others yesterday that he was going back. Fang Xi had originally offered to come out and see him off, but Jiang Cheng said that he was leaving early and asked him to sleep a little longer at home, as he had just finished his confinement and couldn't afford to be cold.

When Fang Xi heard Jiang Cheng say that he would be back after the New Year, she brought him some freshly made pastries and didn't get up early to see him off.

Song Tingzhi glanced into the cart and saw that Jiang Cheng was already seated securely, so he drove the donkey cart back home.

Xu Sanniang was feeding the chickens in the yard. When she heard the noise at the door, she knew that Song Tingzhi and the others had returned.

She hurried to greet them. Fortunately, she felt that they were about to come back in the past few days, so she swept the snow at the door every day and waited for their return.

Xu Sanniang opened the door and saw Song Tingzhi sitting in the car, surrounded by people from behind. She was very satisfied.

She walked to the back and lifted the curtain, and saw Jiang Cheng sitting inside and taking a nap!

Jiang Cheng felt the car stop and light came in again. He opened his eyes and saw Xu Sanniang with a smile on her face.

"Mom?!" Jiang Cheng held her belly and stood up carefully.

"Hey!" Xu Sanniang felt nervous when she saw Jiang Cheng's uncomfortable movements, and quickly reached out to help him down.

"Come in quickly! It's freezing outside!" Xu Sanniang carefully helped Jiang Cheng into the house and poured him a cup of hot tea to warm him up. "You stay here first. I'll go get the things in!"

"Yeah." Jiang Cheng nodded.

As soon as Xu Sanniang went out, Song Yu heard the noise and came out, followed by Xiao Hui, who was half a person's height.

"Brother Chengcheng!" Song Yu came out and saw Jiang Cheng sitting there, and ran over happily.

Xiao Hui also sniffed around Jiang Cheng enthusiastically, but it seemed to know that Jiang Cheng was not feeling well, so after sniffing for a while, it lay down at Jiang Cheng's feet.

"Xiao Yu! You've grown a lot taller!" Jiang Cheng couldn't tell in the town before, but after not seeing him for a few days, he felt that Song Yu was taller.

"Hehe! Right!" Song Yu sat down next to Jiang Cheng.

Song Qian was sent back from Madam Tang by Song Tingzhi two days ago. She was embroidering in the room when she heard some noise and came out to see what was going on.

As expected, my eldest brother and Brother Chengcheng are back!

"Brother Chengcheng!"

"Qianqian!"

Both of them spoke at the same time.

"It just so happens that you two are here. Your eldest brother and I went around town yesterday and brought you some things. Come see if you like them!"

Just then, Song Tingzhi brought in the things he had bought, and Jiang Cheng told them the good news.

Song Yu was given a silver bracelet with a few small bells on it that jingled, suitable for someone of Song Yu's age!

"It looks so beautiful! Brother Chengcheng, please put it on for me!" Song Yu liked it very much as soon as he got it and asked Jiang Cheng to help him put it on.

Seeing how impatient he was, Jiang Cheng took the bracelet and helped Song Yu put it on.

After Song Yu put it on, he shook it and then ran out to show it to Xu Sanniang.

Song Qian is a silver hairpin with some patterns engraved on it, simple and exquisite.

"Thank you, Brother Chengcheng, thank you, Big Brother!" Song Qian took it in her hand and looked at it again and again, then thanked her two brothers.

"As long as you like it!" Jiang Cheng said with a smile.

Not only did they bring gifts back for Song Yu and Song Qian, Song Tingzhi and Jiang Cheng also prepared gifts for Xu Sanniang and Song Tao.

"By the way, why don't I see Dad?" Jiang Cheng was curious why Song Tao was not at home.

"Dad went to see my uncle early in the morning. Maybe he was discussing something there!" Song Qian replied.

"Dad looks much better now! He can even go out for a walk!" Song Tingzhi was very happy when he heard his sister say that Song Tao had gone out.

Now Song Tao’s illness is cured!

"Yes, everything is fine!" Song Qian also said with a smile.

Xu Sanniang was busy in the yard, and when she saw Song Yu showing off like this, she felt helpless towards him.

When Song Yu pulled me into the house, I saw Song Tingzhi and the others sitting there talking.

"Mom, you're here! Come and sit down!" Jiang Cheng saw Xu Sanniang coming in and hurriedly stood up and pulled her over. "Mom, Tingzhi and I have prepared a gift for you. Please open it and take a look!"

"Oh! I still have some?!" Xu Sanniang wiped her hands on her clothes and happily took the box.

When I opened it, it turned out to be a gold bracelet!!

"Oh my! Why did you buy such an expensive thing? It must have cost a lot of money!" Xu Sanniang was shocked. She thought it was silver like the children's, but it turned out to be gold!

"Mother, it's not expensive! Tingzhi said you had a gold bracelet before, but when your family got into financial trouble, you secretly pawned it. I happened to see this bracelet when I was out and about, so I bought it for you!"

Jiang Cheng picked up the bracelet and put it on Xu Sanniang's wrist.

"This..." Xu Sanniang couldn't help but choke up when Jiang Cheng said this, "Good children! Mother's love for you is not in vain!"

"Mom, our family will get better and better in the future!" Jiang Cheng hugged Xu Sanniang and patted her on the back.

Song Qian's eyes were also a little moist. Fortunately, the hard days at home were over!

"I will buy a gold bracelet for my mother in the future!" Song Yu responded from the side.

Xu Sanniang burst out laughing when he heard him say that. "Okay! Xiaoyu will buy some for me too!"

Xu Sanniang laughed, and everyone else laughed too.
