In the living room, on the sofa that had been tidied by the hostess, the family sat upright, staring without blinking at Su Nan who was squatting in front of the bag and looking for something inside.
Su Nan pretended to rummage in her bag, and then, using the bag as a cover, she took out a beautifully packaged gift box from her pocket and placed it on the table in front of the sofa.
"Sister, is this for me?" Su Yang looked at the box with joy, rubbing his hands and wanting to take it in his hands, open it and see what was inside.
"No, it's for our mother." Su Nan rejected it without even raising his head.
Su Yang's face fell in disappointment. The packaging box looked very valuable. He thought his sister had a change of heart and was willing to spend a lot of money to buy him a gift, but he didn't expect that it was actually a gift for his mother.
"For me?" Hearing this, Lin Yuemei's face broke into a smile. She pointed at herself and asked again in disbelief.
"Yes, my dear mother, please open it and see if you like it." Su Nan took out a blue box from the space and handed it to Su Qiangguo, saying sweetly: "My dear father, this is the gift I chose for you, please see if you like it."
Su Qiangguo's serious expression couldn't help but break the ice at this moment. He couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips, coughed lightly and said, "Let me see."
The sound of the two elders carefully tearing open the package echoed in Su Yang's ears. He pouted and watched Su Nan rummaging through the package, but couldn't find his gift. He couldn't help but urge her again: "Sister, where's mine? Hurry up."
Su Nan raised his head from his bag, squinted his eyes, and said, "Why are you in a hurry? I'm not in a hurry either."
Su Yang choked, poked the buttons on his coat aggrievedly, and whispered: "I'm not in a hurry, take your time and look for it slowly."
After saying that, she opened her big eyes and watched Su Nan rummaging through the things without blinking. Finally, after a while, she took out a small box from her bag.
Compared with the gift packaging of Su Qiangguo and Lin Yuemei, isn’t his a little too small?
Su Yang quietly placed the gift box next to Lin Yuemei's hand and compared it. He immediately felt an imbalance, but it was good to have a gift. He still showed a smile like a sunflower and said to Su Nan: "Thank you, sister."
"You're welcome. Just open it and take a look. I promise you'll like it very much." Su Nan zipped up the bag, clapped his hands, and looked gently at the three people who were huddled together opening their gifts.
At this moment, she felt a warm sense of satisfaction in her heart, and felt that it was a good deal to spend all her savings to buy these gifts.
Lin Yuemei's gift was a set of international brand skin care products and a red scarf.
Su Qiangguo's gift was a box of Jiangbei Province's specialty tea.
The most expensive gift from Su Yang was a Jingqi brand watch.
Su Nan chooses gifts based on what she knows about each person's preferences and needs. Even if Lin Yuemei is frugal, she will buy a box of vanishing cream every once in a while, and Su Qiangguo never puts down his teacup.
There is no need to talk about Su Yang. This kid risked his life and mentioned it several times in front of Su Qiangguo, saying that if Su Qiangguo's watch broke, he would give it to him. But this made Su's father very angry.
Every time she would chase Su Yang and beat him up, saying that he was like a dog with no ivory in its mouth. Who would want their father's watch to break down soon?
For a moment, the atmosphere in the living room was eerily quiet.
Su Qiangguo and Lin Yuemei looked at each other, and while they were delighted, they couldn't help but hesitantly asked, "Nannan, we all like the gifts you gave us, but where did you get so much money?"
"Did you save money in the countryside to buy these things? No wonder you've become so thin due to hunger. Come and let mom take a look." Lin Yuemei put down the things in her hands and was about to come up and hold Su Nan's hand.
Su Nan was confused as Lin Yuemei dragged her around for several circles. How could she be thinner? She must have become fatter because of Zhou Rang's feeding, right?
"Mom, I'm not saving money, and I'm not an educated youth in the countryside anymore. I earned all this money by working." Su Nan hurriedly explained.
But seeing their confused looks, Su Nan realized belatedly and said, "Didn't I tell you about this?"
Shake your head in unison.
Su Nan widened her eyes and recalled for a while in her mind. She seemed not to have told her family that she went to work in a photo studio.
So Su Nan pulled Lin Yuemei to sit on the sofa and explained the whole thing to her. She described Zhou Rang as a good and enthusiastic "educated youth friend".
Knowing that their daughter was no longer working on the farm in the countryside, but was working in the county town, with a respectable, stable and safe life, the whole family breathed a sigh of relief and immediately wanted to celebrate.
Lin Yuemei hurriedly took the food coupons and money from home, called Su Yang and went out. Before leaving, she did not forget to remind Su Nan to have a good rest.
Su Nan yawned and asked Su Qiangguo to boil some hot water for her. Then she took her pajamas and went to the bathroom to take a comfortable hot bath. God knows how uncomfortable it was not being able to take a bath on the train.
She's almost stinking.
After taking a shower, Su Nan wrapped her long hair tightly with a towel and fell asleep on the bed. She was so sleepy that she didn't care about the fact that sleeping with wet hair was bad for her health.
In a daze, she seemed to hear Lin Yuemei opening the door and calling her to eat, but her eyelids were so heavy that she couldn't open them, so she didn't open her eyes. Seeing that she was sleeping soundly, the other party quietly closed the door and left.
Su Nan slept until noon the next day. She got up from the bed with sleepy eyes and just opened the door to the room. Su Yang suddenly appeared in front of her like a wandering soul, almost scaring her to death.
"Are you sick? Do you want to scare me, your sister, to death so early in the morning?" The little sleepiness that Su Nan had left was scared away by him. She pushed his head away with her hand in annoyance and rolled her eyes.
Su Yang knew that he was too abrupt, so he apologized with a wry smile: "Sister, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."
After he finished speaking, he paused for two seconds, pointed at the bright sunshine outside the window, and said seriously: "But it's not early morning now, it's noon."
"If you want me to tell you, I'm not blind." Su Nan patted his chest, which had calmed down, and walked around Su Yang to the bathroom. While brushing his teeth, he asked, "Where are my parents? Why can't I see them?"
"They went to work. Today is the last day of work for the factory manager. They will probably be back soon." Su Yang leaned against the bathroom door, watching Su Nan grinning and spitting foam in an unpresentable manner.
This look is completely different from the beautiful sister who seemed to be glowing yesterday.
"Oh." Su Nan nodded, wiped his mouth with his hand, and responded.
Su Yang is in the first semester of the third year of junior high school and has just had his holiday. He is very bored staying at home, so he follows Su Nan around, helping to heat up meals, peel oranges, and even runs errands to the nearby supply and marketing cooperative to buy two kilograms of egg cakes.
This is all because of that watch, bah, because of the deep sisterly love, hehehe.
