Chapter 197 Visiting the Department Store



The Song family's dinner today was particularly sumptuous. As for how sumptuous it was, they had to eat at a large table, which was filled with food. Su He also instructed Song Tangqing to call Tian Yu.

When Song Tanglan heard the name, she became curious about the future third brother-in-law whom the original owner had only met once.

As for why the third sister had been dating him for so long, but the original owner had only met him once, it was because the original owner either went to class or went home, and rarely went to any social gatherings with the third sister.

She was not very interested in these things, so Song Tanglan still had no impression of her future brother-in-law. She only knew that he was very generous.

After all, he bought a lot of good things to bribe his third sister.

They just waited for him to arrive and saw him standing with the third sister. After greeting them politely, the younger generations secretly observed them from the side.

Only then did Song Tanglan realize that Song Tangqing and Tian Yu were really a perfect match.

Song Tangqing is a beautiful woman with a bright appearance, and Tian Yu is the type who wears glasses, looks reliable, but is actually very scheming. In addition, he speaks very gracefully, so the Song family is very satisfied with him.

Seeing that his fourth sister was always looking at his third sister and brother-in-law, Song Tangzi asked in a low voice.

"Fourth sister, haven't you met third brother-in-law?"

"Only once."

"No wonder, Fourth Sister, let me tell you, Third Brother-in-law is very good. He bought me a lot of delicious food before."

"Yeah?"

“Of course!!”

When Song Tangzi mentioned Tian Yu, he really wanted to praise him to the sky. However, while praising him, he suddenly remembered something. He looked for Song's father in the room and saw that he was far away from him, so he asked in a low voice.

"Fourth sister, I heard you're dating someone. Who is that person?"

"Guess?" Song Tanglan knew without a doubt when she saw his little look that he must have heard the conversation between his sister-in-law and the others. After all, now only his eldest brother and father in the family didn't know about it.

"I guess it's Brother Xu, right?" Song Tangzi said with certainty.

"You guessed it right. How did you guess that?"

"Think about it, Fourth Sister. Sun Zhiqing is with Su Zhiqing, and Yu Zhiqing only sees you as a friend. Now the only people of the opposite sex around you are Brother Xu and Jiang Zhiqing. Later I found out that Jiang Zhiqing is our cousin, so only Brother Xu is left. Am I right, Fourth Sister?"

"Your analysis is correct. It seems you need to study hard during this period. Not bad, not bad."

Song Tanglan patted his younger brother's shoulder happily.

"That's right!! Fourth sister, the reason I figured it out so quickly is that when he sent me up here, he often asked me about your preferences. Although he didn't ask directly, who am I? I'm Fourth sister's younger brother, so I knew it just by guessing."

"That's amazing of you. By the way, how many days off do you have this time?"

When Song Tangzi heard his fourth sister suddenly mentioned this, he immediately became unhappy. There was nothing he could do. It was his own fault for being so shameless that he only got such a short leave. He could only stay at home for 10 days and had to catch the train back and forth for the rest of the time.

"Including today, I can still stay at home for about 10 days."

"So how long does the train ride take?"

Song Tanglan couldn't help but ask out of curiosity at this time.

Although his family knew my younger brother's address and had sent him many things, they had never been there and didn't know how long the train ride would take.

In addition, I was going to study medicine, not to join the army, so the requirements were not as strict as those for joining the army.

"It will take 10 days."

When Song Tanglan heard that he had to sit for such a long time, he looked at him with some sympathy. He could hardly stand sitting for 5 days, so if he had to sit for 10 days, he would be exhausted.

And the taste is so good.

"So long."

"Yes, we are in a relatively remote place." After Song Tangzi said that, he noticed that the watch on Song Tanglan's hand was different from the previous one, and it was obviously newer.

I couldn't help but ask out of curiosity. "Fourth sister, is this watch new? Do you sell watches this expensive in the commune?"

When Song Tanglan was asked this, she looked at her watch and said, "This is a gift from Brother Xu. You can't buy this brand in the commune."

"I was just saying that I've been to the supply and marketing cooperative in the countryside, and this brand of watch is in short supply in the city. I thought Fourth Sister was so lucky that she could even buy it in the countryside!"

Song Tangzi looked at the watch with longing eyes. There was nothing he could do because, except for the two children, he was the only one in the family who didn't have a watch.

His eldest brother had a very nice pocket watch, which he often wore. The others bought watches by earning their own money or receiving rewards from their father.

Not only is he often cheated out of money by his father, but he has also not been able to save enough money to buy a watch.

How did Song Tanglan see his younger brother? Curiously, he asked, "Do you like him?"

"I like it. I've been saving money to buy a watch these past two years. By the way, Fourth Sister, I was lucky enough to dig up two ginsengs in the mountains once. I made a lot of money, but after buying some medicinal herbs, there wasn't much left."

Song Tangzi sighed when he thought of this. He had already thought about how to allocate the money, but he didn't expect that he would spend half of it on a homework assignment.

In the end, he could only watch the watch he had been longing for leave him. Later, he also worked hard to save money, but he did not go up the mountain to dig herbs every day, only occasionally.

Moreover, they usually have to help teachers with chores, so how can they have time to make money?

"Xiao Zi, you're amazing! You stumbled upon two ginsengs, such a good thing. It's okay. Just spend them. You can always earn them back later."

After Song Tanglan finished speaking, she saw his envious eyes. She looked at the watch tickets in the space and thought about buying one for him one day.
