Song Tan's Notes

Chapter 1259. Other Gifts

The bunch of wild flowers, messy and disorderly but full of colorful spring colors, was placed casually on the small table by the door.

The upstairs door was closed.

And if you stand on a high place behind the mountain, you can look through the trees and through the white gauze gently fluttering by the window, and you can vaguely see the kisses of the couple.

Until Lu Chuan turned his head slightly, reached out to touch Song Tan's hair, and gently but firmly pressed her cheek against his chest.

  Her ears rang with frantic heartbeats, and Lu Chuan's voice became hoarse:

"I still have a gift for you."

Song Tan raised his head, reached into his pocket, and took out a pendant: "Is this it?"

It was a lovely and exquisite jade pendant, skillfully carved into a plump peach. The reddest part was the tip of the peach, and the greenest part was the leaves on top.

The color is uniform and the water is translucent. To the naked eye, it seems to have a layer of hazy fluorescence. Anyone who looks at it can appreciate this obvious beauty.

Lu Chuan nodded, a little embarrassed: "It's a little small..."

It's really not big, just a little bigger than your thumb. The knot is already tied, so you just need to put it on.

"Did you buy it specially?" Song Tan liked it very much and was looking at it over and over again in his hand.

To be precise, she likes to appreciate all the beautiful things, whether it is the wild flowers and grasses on the roadside or the gold and jewelry that represent worldly values.

Lu Chuan was a little embarrassed: "For a while, gambling stone novels were very popular, and Qin Yun wanted to keep up with the trend, so he took me to the border town to read it."

Of course, the fact that they would follow the trend of the hot theme proves that they are not really that popular and do not make much money. Otherwise, they might be bold enough to go directly to the public auction abroad to look.

Song Tan became interested: "Then what? Gambling on stones? Gambling on the price going up?"

"How is that possible?" Lu Chuan laughed. "It's just a plot in novels where people get the golden finger and easily increase their bets. In fact, the things that ordinary people can buy in stores are basically screened by experts."

"As long as there is a slight possibility of price increase, the price of rough stones will take off."

Before he finished speaking, Song Tan guessed: "Did they pay?"

"Yeah." Lu Chuan nodded. "I lost most of the manuscript fee for half a year, and only cut out a few pieces of glutinous material. At that time, the price of jadeite had not risen yet. Someone bought it on the spot and offered 1800."

Song Tan: ...

  Aren’t these two innocent people just too miserable?

She thought she was lucky enough to spend money like that!

"What about yours?"

The brown rope was wrapped around her hand several times, and the plump, juicy peach swayed slightly on the back of her hand. It was hard to tell whether her skin was as white as jade or the tip of the peach was bright red.

Lu Chuan lowered his eyes and looked at her, his eyes focused: "I spent 500 yuan to buy a piece of stone, and there was only this little material when I cut it to the center."

"But—it has risen."

Now, when he went to the store to weave a rope for this little peach, the store owner asked if he wanted to consign it - the starting price was 12.

Song Tan couldn't help laughing out loud.

"How much did you spend in total that time?" she asked curiously, smiling.

Lu Chuan also smiled slightly: "Excluding transportation, food and lodging, the stone is 500, and the carving is 1100."

This time, Song Tan hugged his waist again and laughed so hard that his whole body trembled.

  When she finally calmed down, she touched Lu Chuan's palm and placed the exquisite peach in his palm:

"Put it on for me."

……

  Everyone gathered together for dinner, and Wulan asked curiously:

"Tan Tan, what are you doing with the vase downstairs?"

Song Tan said nonchalantly, "Growing flowers."

The wrapped bouquet of flowers was left with the bottom unsealed and was put into the vase.

Song Tan even generously gave a ball of spiritual energy to melt into the water. If nothing unexpected happens, the flowering period of these grass flowers that were originally not suitable for water cultivation can even be extended for more than a month. However, it is really beautiful when placed on the table.

Wu Lan had never seen Lu Chuan bring flowers again, and thought that young people's love was weird, but she considered herself an open-minded parent, so she didn't ask any more questions at this moment, and just kept urging Lu Chuan to eat more...

Song Sancheng has already planned his schedule:

"After dinner, Mao Zhu and I will go fishing together. Where is our parasol? And where is the small bench I use for fishing?"

Ulan:......

"I just got the fishing rod. You really can't find leftovers in the doghouse... The things are all in the warehouse. Go and look for them yourself."

Song Sancheng turned a deaf ear to him. He thought to himself, I just heard you making that vibrato with other people in the village, saying that you also wanted to imitate them in making a fluttering red scarf, clapping this way and that way...

Anyway, the couple should not say anything to each other.

Although Wulan said it, he really didn't take it to heart.

I don’t know where the man got the perseverance from when he was fishing, but he was not afraid of wind or snow.

  But thinking about how busy the family was last year, he really didn't have much chance to sit by the pond with his fishing rod, so Wulan said again:

"The spring rain is cool, remember to bring a pot of boiling water with you later."

"I know, I know!" Song Sancheng beamed with joy. "Not only Mao Zhu, but also Zhou Shunshui. He bought a fishing rod last year and said it cost more than 4000 yuan! I'll let him take a look today. No matter how expensive the fishing rod is, it's useless if you can't catch fish."

He spoke so arrogantly, but in fact his fishing skills were quite average, but everyone tacitly agreed not to expose him.

Let’s go fishing!

Guarding the pond all day long, out of sight, out of mind.

Qiao Qiao was also very happy: "Mom, I told Chen Chi that he will come after dinner."

"Come on!" Children always need friends, and Ulan was happy in her heart.

Besides, they were not the only ones who couldn’t work on rainy days. Zhang Wangjia and Chen Xi were more than enough to work by the river.

"It's fun. Tantan, tell his brother to give the child half a day off today."

Song Tan shook his head: "Let Qiao Qiao talk and see how they plan it."

The word "planning" was used in a very high-level way. Qiao Qiao really became serious. He quickly finished the rice in the bowl and then said:

"Then I have a meeting with Chen Chi later, and we can discuss it."

He spoke seriously, and it was obvious that he took the matter very seriously, but the more he spoke seriously, the more everyone tried to hold back their laughter.

It was Song Tan who urged him: "Then hurry up and get ready. Have you tidied up the desk? Will it be too crowded for two people?"

Qiao Qiao exclaimed, "Ah!", quickly put the meeting plan aside, turned around and rushed upstairs to tidy up her desk.

The sound of rain outside the door continued. Song Tan turned to look at Lu Chuan, not ignoring the faint blueness and fatigue in his eyes:

"After you finish eating, go to sleep. I won't call you for dinner yet. You can eat whenever you get up."

Lu Chuan nodded: "Don't worry, I'll just wash up and wait for Chen Chi to come over and give him the gift."

After all, he is so powerful in Qiao Qiao's words, so the gift he gives must be very powerful too.

　I also bought a small jade peach, but the quality...
