Chapter 131 Shopping



For the next period of time, Wen Ruan was busy with her internship at her workplace, leaving early and returning late every day.

With less than a month until the start of the new semester, she is unsure whether she will be able to continue her internship after school resumes.

Of course, Wen Ruan really wanted to continue, even if it meant being busier, because she felt she was learning many things here that were difficult to learn from textbooks. She believed she could manage her schedule, but she didn't know the school's or her employer's opinions.

But we can only take it one step at a time. It's not time yet, and worrying too much now is useless. We can only work harder on our current tasks.

As for Song Yan, he remained as busy as ever. After returning from the training course, he clearly felt that his unit was paying more attention to him, and even the business he was responsible for was adjusted accordingly, shifting towards economic management.

Although much of the content was learned in the training course, practice makes perfect. When it comes to real-world application, the challenges are still very specific and difficult.

Both of them are very busy with their jobs during the day. After dinner, they lock themselves in the study to read various books to enrich themselves. Although they have relatively little time to talk because of their busy schedules, there is a tacit understanding between them.

Looking back on this period, Wen Ruan realized that although it was busy, it was extremely fulfilling and joyful, and she didn't feel tired at all, because there was always someone by her side...

Time is the sculptor of history; it etches the rings of struggle and outlines the trajectory of change...

Wen Ruan is starting school tomorrow. Last week, she specifically mentioned this to Teacher Wang Qing, who asked if she would still be willing to intern at the company.

Wen Ruan readily agreed and nodded repeatedly.

Finally, Wang Qing asked Wen Ruan to submit the application to the department, while he would communicate with Lin Qingyou in a timely manner.

As for the concern about delaying Wen Ruan's classes, Wang Qing was not worried. Before she came here for her internship, Wang Qing had heard from Lin Qingyou that she had already self-studied all of her first-year courses and half of her second-year courses, and that she had a strong self-learning ability.

Having communicated with Wen Ruan before, and based on our usual interactions, Wang Qing believes that Wen Ruan has already reached a certain level. Especially during the two months of her internship, he could clearly feel that Wen Ruan was making rapid progress, and he could feel her progress every day.

Therefore, Wang Qing also intended to cultivate Wen Ruan more, believing that she was a rare talent.

Knowing that school was about to start, Wang Qing said that Wen Ruan had been working very hard lately, so he specially gave Wen Ruan a day off in advance so that she could prepare well and relax. After all the procedures were completed, she could come back to work.

Sure enough, after learning that she was resting at home, Song's mother insisted on taking Wen Ruan shopping, thinking that she would need to buy something before school started.

Despite Wen Ruan's repeated insistence that she didn't need anything, and that she was starting her second year of university and had previously asked her counselor if she would no longer have to abide by the school dormitory rules like she did in her first year, she could go home every night.

We had already discussed it with Song Yan beforehand. Every day after Song Yan got off work, he would pick her up from the gate of Tsinghua University and take her home. When he went to work, he would also drop her off at the university. The schedule and other arrangements were very reasonable.

But Song's mother insisted that even if they lacked nothing, they still had to buy new clothes. New semester, new look. So, early in the morning, she came to the house, picked up Wen Ruan, and the two went to the back street hand in hand.

After a day of shopping, the group met at Song Yan's doorstep when he got off work and returned home.

The two were panting heavily, their hands full of things, which shocked Song Yan. Although he had witnessed his mother's strong desire to buy things when he was young, he had never seen it again as he grew older, for various reasons.

Ling Buting was still somewhat surprised to see him again, especially since he was with Wen Ruan.

Originally, Wen Ruan was a little lazy and didn't want to go out at all, but she finally went out after being urged by Song's mother.

But when she got to the back street, she saw Song's mother shopping like crazy. Somehow, perhaps influenced by Song's mother's shopping enthusiasm, her own desire to shop also began to stir.

The two strolled from one end of the street to the other, buying bags of all sizes, until they were too tired to carry them all. They called a rickshaw puller, gave him 50 cents, and asked him to take them back.

Mother Song was too lazy to talk to Song Yan, so she remained silent and waved her hands repeatedly, signaling him to hurry up and move these things inside.

Song Yan quickly pushed his bicycle into the yard and came out to help move the things inside.

Both Song's mother and Wen Ruan were so tired they were about to collapse on the sofa. They asked Song Yan to quickly pour them a glass of water, and the two of them gulped down a large glass before finally catching their breath.

Song Yan looked at the various shopping bags piled up in the living room and thought about tidying them up for the two of them, but they both yelled at him to go about his own business and not touch their things.

You know, unpacking all the packages after you buy something is an extremely fun thing to do.

The two began cleaning up the bags on the ground. Even though they had tried on the contents, including the clothes, they still had to put them on again, listening to each other's compliments.

Song Yan felt he could hardly bear to listen, but dared not utter a sound. He quietly went into the kitchen and dutifully prepared dinner.

He could even hear the voices of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the kitchen.

"Mom, do you think this dress is pretty? I feel like it doesn't really suit me. The yellow one looks better, right?" Wen Ruan asked.

“Let me see, you turn around and look, it’s really pretty. My daughter-in-law looks good in anything. This pink dress really complements your skin tone. Oh my, it makes your skin look even better. I even want to touch it a couple of times…” Song’s mother replied.

......

After Song Yan finished cooking, the two of them finally tidied up the things in the living room. After dinner, Song's mother was also going home. She tied her "trophies" to the back of her bicycle and asked Song Yan to take them back to her later.

Song's mother bought her more than a dozen items, eight or nine of which were for Wen Ruan, and the rest were for herself.

I had originally planned to come back like this, but when I got to the end of the street, I suddenly saw a men's clothing store and suddenly remembered that there were still two men at home.

Afterwards, Song's mother instructed Wen Ruan: "Ruan Ruan, let's go take a look here and buy a shirt or something for your dad and Song Yan, just to show our appreciation. Give them a treat every now and then, so they'll be more willing to hand over their wages..." Song's mother was passing on "life wisdom" to Wen Ruan.

Seeing Song's mother's mischievous expression, Wen Ruan couldn't stop laughing.

Today was the most enjoyable shopping trip Wen Ruan had ever had. Originally, she didn't want to go out, partly because she was lazy, and partly because she thought there weren't any really good styles available, which was indeed the case before.

But to her surprise, only a short time after she last went out shopping, the street where she traded goods had undergone a complete transformation.

The crowds were bustling, and the shops were lined up one after another. Not only had the decorations of the shops changed, but the goods inside were also trendy.

The scene of her enjoying a pleasant shopping trip with Song's mother today inevitably reminded her of her past life, making her feel as if she were in a dream...
