Song Tan's Notes

Chapter 1597. Command the flag for others
When my aunt said she wanted to help, she was very clear about it!
Their family is very good at organizing things, but there weren't many dumplings to make today. She wandered around and squeezed in a seat to sit down. She casually took a bamboo shoot shell and wrapped the glutinous rice in it:
"Would you like to make some white rice dumplings?"

White rice dumplings are made without any ingredients. After being cooked, they are eaten plain or dipped in sugar. Local people are used to making them this way.

This year, we were giving them as gifts to our employees, and white rice dumplings were nothing special, so we added various flavors.

Wu Lan nodded quickly: "Bao, Tan Tan loved to eat this when he was a child, and he didn't dip it in sugar."

My uncle-in-law and Zhu Lingqi couldn't squeeze in, so they went to fill four pots of tea with water, then carried the bucket and lifted the table to clean up the messy and dirty places again.

The cafeteria was spacious and everyone was gathered together to make zongzi, so even if there were some traces of things being moved and dropped, there weren't many.

After the father and son finished cleaning up, they felt it was inappropriate to just sit there and do nothing, so they simply turned over all the mugwort outside.

After all the hard work, all the rice dumplings were wrapped.

Several large soup buckets in the kitchen were immediately prepared to cook, and the employees gathered together in a lively manner to compare who ranked first and second.

After the lottery was over, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room also decreased rapidly.

It's really time for dinner, and it's time for them to have a meal with their family.

Here, Song Tan came over with a smile and said, "Aunt, how much money can you give my grandparents for the festival?"

Ouch! You can’t say that!

The eldest aunt was instantly heartbroken: "You kid! Next time Lu Chuan buys clothes, tell me in advance, and I won't buy them - look, this year I didn't buy anything, so I gave him 200 more."

According to her habit, she would bring back about 10 to 20 kilograms of pork, but her parents were eating at Tan Tan's house now, so wouldn't it be a waste to cut that much meat?
Anyway, the eldest aunt smiled and said, "I didn't buy anything today. If there is any work, just ask your cousin or uncle to do it."

Song Tan immediately became happy. Seeing the large kettles lined up on the table, he said with a smile, "Aunt, I'll pack some tea for you to take back. We are family relatives, why are you being so polite?"

The eldest aunt's heart trembled instantly, and she came over and asked in a low voice: "This tea is now sold for hundreds of thousands per kilogram, right?"

Seeing Song Tan nod, she took a deep breath again: "Then you must not give it to me, your aunt can't live like this. If I think about the hundreds of dollars a sip of tea at home costs, I dare not sleep."

"I brought an extra pot today because your brother Lingqi has a girlfriend and you want her to have a taste. Usually we just drink the summer heat-relief tea given by the pharmacy."

Every night when my uncle went to the supermarket to buy discounted vegetables, he passed by the pharmacy. No one drank water at night, so he carried a kettle to fill it, and the clerk was very happy!
It saves you from having to carry heavy things, which is hard work to move.

Moreover, they don’t put much sugar in their cooling tea, so it doesn’t taste that good!
Lu Chuan listened silently at the side. Even though he already knew what kind of person his aunt was, he was still shocked.

But Song Tan was obviously used to it, and was very happy that Zhu Lingqi had a girlfriend, so he said, "Aunt, you can't be so stingy with your daughter-in-law. There is some large-leaf tea at home. I'll pack two taels and ask Brother Lingqi to give it to someone, okay?"

As she was about to stand up, she was pushed down by her aunt: "No! That girl said that if things from relatives are expensive, don't waste them. She has a dull tongue and can't tell the difference between good and bad. I'll prepare two kilograms of vegetables and invite her over later."

The eldest aunt said with a smile: "Look, she bought the kettle herself and sent it to me. She said don't give me expensive ones, otherwise it will be difficult to be relatives if we visit each other frequently..."

Song Tan thought to himself, this is truly a family!
But she still told Lu Chuan: "Let's pack two taels of big leaf tea for the eldest aunt. When the girl comes to visit us, you have to entertain her parents and relatives, so that they know we are not the kind of people who are reluctant to part with her!"

"Pack two more boxes of 2 liang Maojian tea, put them in a gift box, have lunch and go back, and ask Brother Lingqi to give them the festival gifts."

It's rare to see Song Tan think so thoughtfully. It's obvious that the eldest aunt's family can really do anything! Lu Chuan couldn't help laughing when he stayed any longer. At this moment, he nodded and hurried back.

The eldest aunt whispered: "I have shown the girl the gold I saved, and she is not reluctant to give it away. I will give her half of it when she gets married..."

Of course, we have to get married. She won’t give it to me if we don’t get married. That’s just the kind of person she is!

But think about it, she knows that it is rare that her daughter-in-law is like a family member, and now it is time to let her parents go back and show off.

Otherwise, it would be embarrassing to be a potential son-in-law, which would be quite unfair.

So he gritted his teeth and nodded: "Okay, then I'll accept it."

Ouch, it’s so expensive… My heart bleeds just thinking about it!
While we were chatting, Wulan also came.

The last time Song Hongmei came back, she heard that there was a very good girl in Lingqi’s unit. Now it’s really together and it seems to be stable. She is so happy!
When the family was in hard times, she was strong-willed, but Song Hongmei was so stingy that she always prepared big red envelopes for her two children during the holidays.

He would give Qiao Qiao twenty or fifty bucks every now and then.

She was also afraid that she would return the favor, so she asked Zhu Lingqi not to accept the red envelopes every time she came.

The five hundred and one thousand yuan at that time were actually quite useful, and Ulan always remembered it!

Not to mention that Damei was very aggressive. She came back and asked Qiaoqiao if he was bullied, and then she directly pulled him to block the door of the other person's house and scolded him!

Oh, that strength is comparable to that of Ulan!

So, thinking of the past, Wulan hurriedly prepared to bring back a piece of meat, twenty more rice dumplings, a few watermelons, and a basket of vegetables...

Don’t invite her to dinner at her home, just send it directly to the girl’s home!
It’s Dragon Boat Festival after all!
Lingqi's boyfriend is stingy. He probably won't buy good cigarettes and alcohol unless he goes to a house...

Oh, this family!

Wu Lan feels worried just thinking about it, and at this moment she really wishes everything could be done well!
Song Tan quickly comforted her: "My brother Lingqi is stingy," so stingy that he even goes to his girlfriend's house for breakfast every day, "but they have confirmed their relationship, don't worry, mom, he is not confused about big things!
A really stingy person would not clean up someone else's house just for free. Chair legs, old screens, range hoods, curtains, light strips...

He doesn't feel it's hard at all. As long as it doesn't cost money, he can do anything!
Later, since there was really nothing to do, he went around the mall and took dozens of flyers to fold into trash cans. He folded more than sixty in total!
Just this one trick, Song Tan even heard her eldest aunt complain on the phone - the girl's mother felt sorry for her child and thought he was too stingy and her daughter would have to suffer, but she knew how to live to this extent and obviously didn't worry about money.

So I went from accepting it with my nose pinched, to complaining about it, to showing off with full satisfaction...

It's only been four or five months!

Here we come!! It’s so hot.

Today I strongly recommend Good Sisters Not 10 [Sunny Day]

It’s very nice, and has a lot of words, just a little less than my “Chronicles of the Qin Dynasty” (get my hint? Click on this one too!).
