Chapter 162 Gift



"I guess, I guess, I I can't guess it!" Song Jinxiu looked at Shangguan Jiao pitifully, hoping that she could guess it.

Song Jinxiu doesn't like to guess, just like she would never buy blind boxes!

Either watch it or don’t watch it, why guess!

"I guess bracelet? Bracelet? Necklace? Hairband? Earrings? Pearls?..." Zhao Tingting shook her head every time she said a word.

"What is this?" Shangguan Jiao picked it up and shook it!

"Put it down quickly, or you'll be shaken to death." Zhao Tingting shouted.

"Dead? Living?" Song Jinxiu looked at Zhao Tingting. "You didn't buy us a turtle, did you?"

"No," Zhao Tingting retorted, "I didn't buy it. I caught it myself. And it's not a turtle, it's a tortoise?"

Zhao Tingting opened the box. Inside were two little turtles.

"Two for each person, so they can keep each other company." Zhao Tingting gave each person a box.

"Wow, I love it!" Song Jinxiu exaggeratedly expressed her love for it, then turned to ask Zhao Tingting. "But, what does it eat?"

"Isn't it enough to just keep it in water?" Zhao Tingting looked at Song Jinxiu with a confused look on her face.

"Are you sure it just needs water?" Song Jinxiu asked.

"What else?" Zhao Tingting asked, "What else would it eat?"

"..." Song Jinxiu missed Baidu very much at this moment!

Just search on Baidu and you will know so much!

"Hey, isn't it a baby? Then why don't you make some rice paste or meat paste and throw it into its bowl? Anyway, you can eat it if he likes it or not and change it later." Zhao Tingting said.

This is how children are fed, and it should be similar for animals!

What you said seems to make sense, but I don’t know whether it is the turtle or the feed that will be replaced.

"By the way, let me tell you, I've asked my brother about this, and he says he likes someone like you." Zhao Tingting quickly shared her findings with her good sister.

"Really?" Shangguan Jiao looked at Su Jie in disbelief.

Zhao Tingting's words are too exaggerated. In comparison, Su Jie is more reliable.

"Yeah, I heard it too. It was said in front of my aunt." Su Jie nodded.

"What did Brother Li say?" Shangguan Jiao asked embarrassedly!

"Let me think about it! He said it's cute, gentle and thoughtful. Oh, and I should love to laugh and be lively! Look at me, look at me, I love to laugh like this!

You know my brother's personality. If you keep quiet, it would be like no one is at home, right?

So, next time you see him, be more generous and don't be so shy!" Zhao Tingting said to Shangguan Jiao.

"That's right, your dimples are so beautiful. It would be a shame not to show them off. You don't know how charming you are when you smile." Song Jinxiu praised from the side.

"Really?" Shangguan Jiao was a little happy and a little bit unbelievable.

"More real than pearls." The other three nodded.

The four of them chatted at the counter for a long time before leaving. After all, this was where Song Jinxiu worked, and it would not have a good influence if they stayed there all the time.

Most of the time I listened to Zhao Tingting talking about various things she saw and heard in the neighboring city.

Song Jinxiu was a little tempted by what she said. Should she go out and have some fun now? She might not be so free in the future.

But thinking about the current means of transportation, she felt that she needed to think about it carefully.

"Hello, comrade. Thank you for advancing the money for me that day. This is to pay you back." In the afternoon, Zhao Li took the money to the counter and gave it to Song Jinxiu.

"I'm sorry I'm not here until now. Something happened a few days ago and delayed me.

Actually, I came that afternoon, but I left when I saw you weren't there." Zhao Li quickly explained, not wanting to leave a bad impression.

"Oh, maybe I was off work when you came." Song Jinxiu said with a smile.

Then she counted the money and said, "The money is right, then I'll take it!"

"To thank you for your help, let me treat you to a meal!" Zhao Li invited.

"No, no, you have worked hard to defend our country. It's just a small favor for me." Song Jinxiu quickly waved her hand and said.

"Yes, yes. I'd feel bad if you didn't let me treat you!" Zhao Li said.

"You see, I don't have time to eat at work now, and it's not convenient for me to spend time with my family after get off work. I appreciate your kindness, thank you!" Song Jinxiu said.

"Is that so? I'm so embarrassed! How about this? It's just a little token of my appreciation. I hope you like it." Zhao Li took out a small box from his pocket and handed it to Song Jinxiu. "You can't refuse this time."

Song Jinxiu looked at the small box in front of her and felt a little worried. She shouldn't accept things from strangers! How could she refuse?

"I..." Song Jinxiu was interrupted by Zhao Li as soon as she opened her mouth.

"Oh, by the way, I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. Thank you again!" After saying that, Zhao Li left the box man and left!

"Hey, hey!" Song Jinxiu called out twice, but Zhao Li hurried away as if he didn't hear anything.

Song Jinxiu watched the departing figure, picked up the box and opened it, only to find a pair of pink pearl earrings.

It’s a very simple style and the pearls are not big, so they shouldn’t be valuable items.

Song Jinxiu put the things aside. Since everyone had left, she had no choice but to accept them!

When I got home in the evening, I showed the thing to Liu Ankang and told him what had happened.

"Is it the man from that day?" Liu Ankang asked.

"Well. You may have made a mistake. He is a soldier and looks pretty good." Song Jinxiu said.

"Are all soldiers good people?" Liu Ankang asked. "Even bad people won't have the word 'bad' written on their faces.

Be careful not to let anyone cheat you out of such a small thing. If you like it, I can give you something better next time."

"Oh, do you have a hidden treasury? Where is it? Why don't I know it?" Song Jinxiu asked curiously.

“I didn’t hide it. My grandfather left me some things, and they are all with the village chief now.

I remember there were some jewelry. If you like it, I'll ask the village chief for it when I go back someday. The pearls there are much bigger than this one," Liu Ankang said.

Since he was a child, he knew that his grandfather had left something for him, because the village chief told him and showed it to him, saying that it was for him to marry a wife.

But in the village, there is food and drink, and the things are useless. If it weren't for Song Jinxiu's love for these things, I would have almost forgotten about them.

"No, no, keep it. I'll give it to you as your wife's gift in the future. I don't like wearing these things!" said Song Jinxiu.

The most important thing is not to show off your wealth. Owning a house and a car is already very high-profile, but what if you also dress up in gold all day long?

Doesn't that clearly tell others that I'm being taken advantage of? I'm a bit naive, but I'm not stupid!

"I'll take you to see it some other day. If you like it, I'll give it all to you as a dowry!" Liu Ankang said generously.

"Oh, what if I can't get married?" Song Jinxiu said with a smile while pinching Liu Ankang's face.

"Then let you wear it for fun!" Liu Ankang said, pulling down Song Jinxiu's hand.
