Volume 1 Chapter 68 You'll Know Later
Song Xi nodded and said in a low voice, "Mom, I know."
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Come over and have some tea after washing the dishes." Song Yun turned and left the kitchen, coming to the sofa in the living room.
Song Jianguo was using a Pu'er tea knife to pry the tea leaves. He glanced over and asked, "What did you say to Xiaoxi just now?"
"Don't worry about it, it's just women's whispers."
Song Jianguo was tactful and did not ask any more questions. After all, one day, his daughter would get married. Whenever he thought of this, he felt melancholy.
In fact, he was very reluctant in his heart.
Even in a city, as a father, it is impossible not to feel a sense of loss in his heart.
But he knew very well that his daughter would start her own family when she grew up.
As parents, we should constantly withdraw from our children's stage and let them make their own decisions.
No matter what time, he and his wife will be the strongest support for their daughter.
After cleaning the kitchen, Song Xi walked to the living room and sat next to Ms. Song. He was like a child who had not grown up, free and unrestrained.
Song Yun spoke at this time, "The 26th of this month is a good day. We have unanimously decided to hold an engagement ceremony for you on that day. Xiaoxi, tell us what you wish for, and your father and I will do our best to help you realize it."
Their eyes fell on Song Xi.
Song Xi shook his head. "I don't have any special wishes, Mom and Dad, just do whatever you want."
"Silly child, how could you not have a wish?"
For example, what kind of engagement ceremony do you want, sacred and solemn, romantic and warm, or humorous and witty.
In Song Xi's view, none of this matters.
The most important thing is who you follow, this is the most important thing.
Getting engaged to the man you love, even if the two families just get together and have a simple meal, it is a unique sense of ritual.
After learning about her daughter's thoughts, Song Yun had some ideas in mind. It seemed that she would have to have a good discussion with her mother-in-law.
-
May 20th happens to be the Grain Full Moon Festival.
This day was also Song Xi's birthday. She received red envelopes from her parents early in the morning, totaling 52,000 yuan.
Song Xi was a little surprised and couldn't help asking his mother why she gave such a large red envelope.
Ms. Song just smiled and said, "You'll know later."
This made Song Xi very suspicious that his family really had a mine.
She received red envelopes not only from her parents, but also from her grandparents, uncles and aunts. They each gave her 520 yuan, which is a normal amount.
Even Song Chi sent Song Xi 0.52 yuan.
Although they are few in number, the relationship between sister and brother is there.
"Sister, please accept my kindness. When I make money in the future, I will give you a Panamera."
"I'll eat the pie you drew first."
"Hehe, it turns out that my sister understands me."
"Have you been busy lately?"
"Of course! I live a hard life every day, and there are still five days until the end. God, please save my life!"
"It's my birthday today, have you told anyone?"
"Sister, you want to ask, have I told the professor? Doesn't he know that today is your birthday?"
"I didn't tell him, so don't tell him either. Work is important, and so are your studies and practice."
After Song Chi replied "received", the text chat ended.
I felt a little sorry for my sister for some reason. Sometimes it’s not a good thing for girls to be too considerate.
Another busy and fulfilling day began. Song Chi would always look at Shang Fuyan intentionally or unintentionally.
Is it possible that I really have to hide it from him so that my sister will be happy?
Song Chi didn't think so. No matter how busy he was at work, even if he didn't have time to buy a gift, a blessing would be enough.
The value of the gift does not matter, what matters is the sincerity of the intention.
Song Chi was holding a Luoyang shovel, with his hands behind his back, and walking over like an old man.
He walked up to Shang Fuyan and said meaningfully, "Professor, I think the weather is really nice today."
"What do you want to say?"
"Do you know what it means when an egg breaks its shell?"
Shang Fuyan glanced at him calmly, "The new life is starting to make trouble."
After hearing this, Song Chi's facial expression became a little stiff, and he couldn't help but remind her, "We are almost close to the answer, but it's still a little short of the point."
"Go back and practice. Otherwise, your points won't be enough to be deducted."
"Even if I lose all my credits today, I will still say this! Today is my sister's birthday, I beg you to send her a blessing."
After saying this, Song Chi thought the man would react. Unexpectedly, he was more resolute than the Dinghai Shenzhen in the Dragon Palace.
Song Chi's face was filled with doubts and a bit of trepidation. "Professor, please don't tell me that you've fallen in love with someone else in just a few days."
"My current identity is a professor, so I should shoulder the responsibilities of a professor. Work is work, and the rest time at night belongs to me."
Song Chi was confused. "What's wrong with just sending a blessing message? It won't embarrass your professor."
Seeing his brother-in-law's stupid look, Shang Fuyan wanted to step forward and kick him twice, but he said patiently: "Don't talk about personal matters during work hours, go back and dig your dirt."
Hearing this, Song Chi also got angry and went back to continue digging the hole in frustration.
It looked like he wanted to bury himself with the dug soil.
I finally waited until lunch break.
Song Chi came to the man happily and said, "Professor, I was wrong this morning. Please be magnanimous and don't bother with me. Can you send a birthday greeting text to my sister? If you don't know how, I can find the copy for you online. There are all kinds of copywriting..."
"No need." The man refused directly, "I will go back to Lancheng in the evening."
Now it was Song Chi's turn to be surprised, "What did you just say?"
"Your eyes are not good, and your ears are not working well either?"
Song Chi touched his protruding ears awkwardly, "Haha, I was born in the Year of the Rabbit, so I have poor hearing."
Shang Fuyan was too lazy to pay any more attention, and left a message before leaving: "Take field practice seriously, don't be like a rabbit, just digging holes for the sake of digging."
Song Chi was speechless for a moment, and then suddenly burst into laughter, so much so that others thought he had epilepsy.
I knew that the professor was quite concerned about his future brother-in-law. I guess she was in a bad mood just now because she was irritated by his amazing behavior in the morning.
For those who are serious about archaeology, digging a pit is just like digging cabbage and potatoes. You have to be careful, take good care of it, and be calm.
The sun rises and sets, and another day of field practice ends.
A black Rolls-Royce was speeding on the highway.
The man was driving without distraction. At this moment, he had only one thought in his mind, which was to go back and celebrate her birthday with her.
Just then, a Bluetooth call came in, "Son, be careful on the road. I have already ordered the cake and other things for you. Secretary Wen will give them to you."
"Thank you, Mom."
"Why are you being so polite to me, little brat? Remember to make Xiaoxi happy and give her an unforgettable birthday. That's the most important thing."
"Yes, I will."
As time passed, they were getting closer and closer to where she was.
In the small apartment at this time.
Song Xi had just finished her bath and was wearing her pink suspender skirt. Usually, there weren't many people upstairs, so she would just dress as comfortably as possible, and naturally didn't pay much attention to the details.
She picked up her phone and it showed exactly nine o'clock in the evening.
Normally at this time of year, his video call would have come in long ago. Could it be that there was something else going on today?
Song Xi sent him a message: "Are you still busy?"
After more than ten minutes, he still didn't reply.
Song Xi was a little anxious, worried about him, and had wild thoughts in her mind. She walked around the living room with her phone in her hand, and decided to call him and ask.
When she was looking through her recent contacts, his call came in. Without hesitation, she swiped the answer button.
A man's voice came from the receiver, "Si Xi, open the door."
