Song Tan's Notes

Xiao Yang didn't mean he didn't want to invite him; he simply hadn't thought of it at all!

After all, his good brother's home was like a peach orchard, and he just wanted to find a way to settle down there.

I never imagined that my empty, unremarkable villa would have the opportunity to invite people over!
but……

His sister sent him a message!
[Xiao Yang, I don't know if you've gone back to China yet. Would it be convenient for Qiaoqiao to come visit you for a few days during the summer vacation?]

You're Xiao Qiao's first friend in all his life, and he's really looking forward to it.

If it were any other friend, Song Tan wouldn't have said that.

However, Xiao Yang had been living at home for quite some time, so there was no problem in communicating with everyone, and she got straight to the point.

By the time Yang Zhengxin saw it, he was already dazed and lightly patted his face:

What?! Qiaoqiao wants to come and stay at my house?!
He was heartbroken: "This silly child, what's wrong with him! Why did he come to my house? If he wanted to go anywhere, he should have gone to his house!"

But Song Tan's phrase "my first friend" really struck a chord with him.

Sigh, men also enjoy being possessive when it comes to feelings!

Without saying a word, I replied immediately:
【I completely forgot to invite Qiaoqiao over!! It's really just a basic place, we don't have anything here. But don't worry, sis, we're still friends! I'll call him right now!】

He was so excited that he could hardly contain himself, and he had even already thought about what food Qiaoqiao should bring when she came.

However, just as he was about to make the call, Song Tan replied with another message:

There's no rush. We're still working in Baiyu County. Call tomorrow.

Xiao Yang: ……

Oh, right, bro, he's helping someone sell grapes now.

Hey, speaking of grapes, I think Qiaoqiao's family has a few vines too. Will we be able to eat them next year?

He was craving it again.

I reached into the refrigerator, opened it, and found it empty?!
He quickly poked his head out again and asked the nanny working in the kitchen:

"Auntie, where are my peaches?"

That just arrived last night!

He tried to save it, but his mouth watered all night, and he's only eaten four so far!
The kitchen staff thought for a moment before saying, "We didn't touch the peaches, but it seems Mr. Yang took a box out today..."

hateful!

Yang Zhengxin was extremely frustrated. After thinking for a while, he simply made another phone call:
"Dad, did you take my peaches? Why would you do this?"

He protested, "Qiaoqiao picked these especially for me! There was a whole box for each of us three!"

Actually, no, and he didn't know who picked it, but that didn't stop him from telling Lao Yang about his feelings.

"...And I'm planning to invite Qiaoqiao to our house, you can't keep doing this sneaky thing!"

He sounded so pitiful that Old Yang felt a little guilty.

Well, his best friend has come from afar, so he wanted to treat him to something decent!

As for the box of peaches that belonged to him...

Oh my, so what if he's a grown man who can eat 5 pounds of peaches in 20 or 30 hours? He has a great stomach and can digest them!
Now, he's offering his son these peaches without even eating them himself, showing how special their friendship is.

But just as one problem was solved, another arose. While my friend was still asking where the peaches came from, my son's complaints quickly followed...

Fortunately, the child is like him, understanding and considerate of the adults' hard work.

Then, changing the subject, they stopped fixating on the peaches and started chattering away again:

"By the way, Dad, we haven't made any preparations at home yet. Would it be too presumptuous of me to invite Qiaoqiao like this? How about you approve some funds for me to upgrade the e-sports room or the gym or something..."

After much effort, Yang Zhengxin managed to get an additional 10 yuan from each of his parents, and the pain of losing Taozi finally began to subside. Because…

Hehe, Qiaoqiao said that if you don't eat peaches in time, they won't taste crisp and sweet.

So when I pick and ship the peaches tomorrow, I'll send them to myself again!

This time he can't be so generous; he can't leave the peaches in the public area, he has to take them back to his room's refrigerator!
snort!
As for upgrading things like e-sports rooms or indoor sports facilities...

Oh dear! The e-sports room has everything. He upgraded it after confirming his admission last year, so he doesn't need it at all now.

As for the sports field, Qiao Qiao said that college students come to invite him to play sports and ball every week. He plays very regularly at home and doesn't need to pretend to play any special games.

What could possibly make him happy in his ordinary family?
Yang Zhengxing rested his chin on his hand, thinking and thinking, recalling the moment when the two of them met.

Back then, I was in the exhibition hall, driving those agricultural machinery exhibits without a license, while Qiaoqiao stared at me with envy in the driver's seat...

Got it!

If he likes farm machinery so much, and all the farms are having a bumper harvest right now, why doesn't he take Qiaoqiao to help with the harvest?
Hmph, this time I'll make sure his handsome face gets a deep tan!

Yang Zhengxin's mind was racing with thoughts, while at that moment, someone in the local university group of Yuncheng sent a shocking message that filled the screen—

Holy crap, guys, I think I got my hands on some real peaches!

Real peaches!

【real! 】

Many people talk in the group every day. Everyone originally planned to let it pass by with laughter and merriment, but he just kept sending too many messages.

Then, after a while, someone posted a really ugly picture of a peach:

Are you talking about those ugly, flat peaches? They're on sale at the supermarket today, 5.98 yuan a pound. Look, I managed to get some real ones!

Among college students, not many can afford expensive fruit, so everyone quickly started chatting and laughing about seasonal fruits. The person who was flooding the screen, however, fiercely retorted:
No, I didn't eat it. It was the peach my brother put on the table!

That peach was truly different, incredibly different! The moment I tasted it, I knew it was a real peach from the heavens, the one Sun Wukong ate!

He didn't intentionally eat his brother's food; it's just that it's a boys' dormitory, so there aren't many rules.

If the food is left there, it's perfectly normal for anyone who's tempted to grab a bite or two.

It was so hot outside. He had just finished showering and came out of the dorm. Seeing that no one was in the room and there was a peach on the table that looked fresh and juicy, he picked it up and started to eat it.

I thought I'd go to the supermarket tonight and buy a few.

Who knew that one bite would reveal the answer—

Bad dish!
He squandered his brother's opportunity!

This is no ordinary thing!!!

I was thinking of posting online to ask how to discuss this with my buddies, but then I thought our classmate group would be more reliable...

But when I checked the group chat again, all I saw was a screen full of copy-pasted messages.

Reject feudal superstition, reject telecom fraud.

Advertising and promotional activities involving fake orders are prohibited in the class group chat; violators will be removed.

Boy: ...

[I'm serious! This peach is really different! I don't know where he bought it, what can I say now? Can you buy this with money? How are we going to get compensation?]

The message had just been sent when a series of hurried footsteps were heard outside the corridor, growing closer and closer.

As he was wondering, the dormitory door was suddenly pushed open, revealing his brother, who was covered in sweat, panting and leaning on his knees, staring at him with a pained and desperate expression.

"You ate my peach?!" (End of Chapter)
