Chapter 188 Seafood



"Alan, I will tell my mother when I get home." Xu Qi couldn't help but feel happy when he thought of this. Now that his parents knew about it, would engagement be a long way off?

By then, the engagement will be arranged and the wedding will be not far away. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but laugh foolishly.

"You should go back soon. My second sister and the others will be back soon. It's getting late now. It's not safe to go back on the road too late."

"Okay, I'll come see you the day after tomorrow. I have something to do tomorrow." Xu Qi thought about going back to prepare more gifts so that his future father-in-law and mother-in-law would have a good impression when they saw the gifts.

"OK."

After Xu Qi left, Song Tanglan put his things away and began to organize the packages he would take with him in the next few days, thinking that he could stuff more into each package so that he would not have to carry several packages by himself.

This time they wanted to bring food home. Fortunately, their second brother-in-law used his connections to book sleeper tickets for them, otherwise they would have been in even greater trouble.

In addition, there are medicinal herbs that Xiaohu found in the mountains. She was asked to take them back to her younger brother. These things must be put away one by one, otherwise it will be troublesome if you forget to bring them.

After a busy day, the three packages were finally replaced with two large packages, both of which were filled to the brim.

Looking at the freed up space, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

After everything was tidied up, Song Tanglan began to look for lunch boxes in the kitchen.

I was thinking of finding a few more lunch boxes and making some hot food so I can eat in the car.

The truth is, the food on the bus was not very tasty except that it was hot. She ate that stuff for several days when she went to the countryside, and she wished she could just eat dry food.

So this time she thought of making a few more meals and putting them in lunch boxes to take with her, which would be better than eating the expensive and unpalatable train lunch boxes.

But she searched the entire kitchen and only found 5 lunch boxes, two of which she brought from the countryside. Seeing this, she couldn't help but worry, because this was really not enough.

When Song Tangcheng came back with the child, he saw his little sister rummaging around in the kitchen, and asked curiously while standing at the door.

"Little sister, what are you doing?"

"I'll find a lunch box and bring food on the train in a few days."

"Are five enough?"

"It doesn't look like it's enough for the three of us. Do you have any lunch boxes?" Song Tanglan thought about how he brought two lunch boxes when he went to the countryside, and these five were definitely not enough.

"There are three more in the room."

"8 is about right." Song Tanglan nodded excitedly when he heard the number.

Pour water to soak the lunch box, and then wash it later.

"Auntie~"

"Auntie is here!" Song Tanglan heard Mumu's call, wiped her hands, and reached out to hug Mumu in her arms.

As soon as she looked up, she saw her second sister, looking at her with gossipy eyes. This made her a little puzzled and she didn't understand why her second sister was looking at her like that.

"Little sister, are you together with Xiao Xu?"

Song Tanglan was suddenly reminded of this, and her emotions, which had just calmed down, became a little excited, and her face flushed. "Second sister, how did you know?"

"Hahaha, how could he go to the backyard without our permission? And I saw Xiao Xu on the way back. He was laughing so happily. I knew he succeeded without even having to guess."

"We are together." Song Tanglan didn't feel as awkward as before when she mentioned this.

"That's great, but are you going to tell your parents when you get home this time?"

"We'll talk about this later. I think I'll tell it on the last day. By then, even if Dad wants to talk about it, it won't be long. Or you can write to them after you get back and tell them."

Song Tangcheng gave her a thumbs-up when he heard this. "That's a good idea. By the way, I've also taken some time off. You can see me when you go back!"

"Dad is willing to let my little brother come back?"

"Hahaha, Dad doesn't want him to come back, but the army gave him leave, so they can't lock him up!"

Song Tangcheng didn't even need to guess. Given Song's father's character, he must have lied to him. Otherwise, why would he grit his teeth every time he mentioned his old father?

Song Tanglan nodded when she heard this. She thought that City A was a bit hotter than the Red Star Brigade, so they didn't need to bring long-sleeved clothes when they returned to the city to visit their relatives. Only short-sleeved clothes would be enough.

Thinking of the skirts she hadn't worn for a long time, Song Tanglan decided to take them all out and wear them back when she returned to the city.

Two days were spent in busyness, and Song Tangcheng needed to ask for leave from her boss. After all, this request would mean almost a month's vacation.

The superiors really couldn't approve so many days of leave for her, so they assigned her a task and asked her to cooperate with the purchasing department in City A to make purchases.

The purchasing team drove to City A, which was three days later than those who took the train. The banquet happened to be on the second day after they arrived, which staggered the time.

After the banquet was over and the purchasing team's car arrived, Song Tangcheng took them to purchase the necessary things. They had to stay in City A for at least 10 days during this period.

Then they would bring the things back to the supply and marketing cooperative. This time, their purchasing team was allowed a full month of travel time, so Song Tangcheng took them to purchase. She would receive her salary for this month as usual, but her train fare would not be reimbursed.

However, Song Tangcheng didn't care about the money and agreed happily.

Anyway, there are few places in City A that they are not familiar with. Even if they are not familiar with them, Father Song is there, so they are not afraid of failing to complete the task.

What's more, going to City A to purchase cotton, cloth, balls of wool and the like is a big deal because cloth is produced in abundance there and is much cheaper than in City C.

If the volume is large this time, I will definitely make a lot of money.

After Song Tangcheng's issue was resolved, Cheng Fangyuan helped Song Tanglan obtain the consent document from the Youth League Office, and Captain Cheng also gave them several blank letters of introduction.
