The young man who asked for leave to drive back to Yuncheng was called Zhu Xin. He had two small canine teeth when he smiled, and his skin was a bit dark.
In Song Tan's social circle, apart from Qiao Qiao, it is difficult for her to see people with fair skin. Now she has gotten used to it.
But Zhu Xin is a chatterbox.
"Oh my, our princess is following you! That's great. When I saw the king in the team, I thought, you really know how to raise a child!"
As he spoke, he took out his phone as if he was familiar with the place: "Come on, let's add each other on WeChat - what year were you born? What month were you born in... Oh, we are the same age... Ah! What a fate! You are exactly one month older than me... Sister, you are so beautiful, are you dating someone..."
Hearing the person in charge's dark face, he hurriedly urged him: "Don't waste time, hurry up, settle down as soon as possible so that the princess and the others can rest."
While staring at Zhu Xin: "Be serious!"
Zhu Xin nodded quickly, straightened his expression, and got into the car.
It wasn't until the car drove onto the main road that Song Tan's cell phone started ringing again.
"Sister, it's so boring just driving. Why don't we chat? After all, we are from the same hometown. What does your dog eat every day?"
Song Tan: ... I’ve been back for so long, but I’ve never seen anyone so talkative.
As for what to eat, before she could answer, the other party started to chatter again:
"Alas, my question is useless! Judging from the state of your dog, he must eat a variety of red meat and white meat every day. Maybe he eats better than I do... The chef in our team is actually pretty good. Have you tried it? The braised pork is really good..."
At the same time, he said, "By the way, sister, do you have a partner? If not, what are your conditions? I'll introduce you to someone! But you have to exclude me first, because I have a partner."
Song Tan: …
While driving, she glanced at the call page on her phone, already wondering whether to hang up first.
Zhu Xin on the other end of the phone seemed not to notice his chattering at all, and continued to talk:
"Sister, I'm telling you, don't be so reserved! I'm going back this time to attend my cousin's wedding. His boyfriend is from the same army, and the best men are all officers with short hair, straight faces, and great bodies. They're all single..."
"Sister, think about it. No matter whether we like it or not, at least the government has screened it for us, which is much more reliable than the screening by our relatives."
"Besides, you are so pretty, don't just get married casually - tell me your request, and I'll ask my cousin to screen you again. We are not in love, we can just be friends first..."
Song Tan: …
If she ignores him, she's afraid that Zhu Xin has already arranged which kindergarten her child will go to.
At this moment, he cleared his throat and said, "It's like this, Xiao Zhu, I'm a country boy, and I have only one requirement for a partner: someone who can work."
"Look, my sister knows so many people. How about organizing them to come and harvest rice for me next year? I can pick some when the time comes?"
"I promise you, if you can give me the list this year, I will not discuss it next year and will wait for our family members."
Zhu Xin: …
This is the first time in more than 20 years of my life that I have seen someone who is equally matched with me!
He became more and more passionate: "Why next year? Isn't it just a good time for everyone to take leave? I'll ask who has time. If there is any work to be done in the fields, just ask them to come over!"
"That won't do," Song Tan has principles:
"An auntie from my village mentioned this to me before. Maybe it can be arranged in the next two months... We have to decide on a first come, first served basis."
Zhu Xin on the other end of the phone was rarely able to speak.
After a while, he let out a long sigh:
"Sister, tell me the truth, is there not enough rice to harvest this year?"
Song Tan was driving the car, but a smile appeared on his face: "We are family, why should we be so blunt?"
"By the way, Xiao Zhu, didn't you say that our sister is getting married tomorrow? Do you have time this afternoon? Come have a meal at my house and bring some local specialties to our relatives."
"No need to eat, I have to hurry back to help with the work..."
Song Tan laughed, and this time he didn't say anything else, just thinking -
When we get back, let's treat the young man to some watermelon first.
To be frank, the young man is a bit talkative, but he still knows his limits and doesn't say anything that shouldn't be said.
With him around, the four-hour return journey didn’t seem so boring.
That’s right… it’s also very hard on the ears.
When the car stopped at the door, Zhu Xin was still chattering on the phone:
"Oh my goodness! No wonder you have so many dogs, you are such a wealthy family! Look at this villa, my girlfriend must be so jealous... Oh, what are you drying here? Sesame seeds and mung beans? These sesame seeds must be very fragrant when fried..."
Ta-ta-ta-ta, his mouth was like spitting bullets, until there was no sound on the other end of the phone.
Zhu Xin opened the car door and looked at Song Tan, only to see him shaking his phone: "It's out of battery."
Zhu Xin then became excited again and turned to open the other door:
"Oh, I thought you disliked me for talking too much... Come on, Yingjun, do you want me to carry you down? Hey, your legs, be careful, don't show off!"
"Princess? Can the princess do it herself? The princess is so amazing that she didn't even want me to serve her and just came down!"
"Hey Duoduo, we are not familiar with each other but you should call me brother... Come, Duoduo sister, don't move, I will use the cushion to hold you down - don't move! You can't torment the wound, it has been healed for a long time..."
"Xanthium came down by itself? Xanthium is awesome. Why didn't you pay attention to me? Oh, I forgot. The voice was too quiet... Come on, Xanthium, come over here!"
"Look, this big villa will be your home from now on! Don't be polite, we will come to see you again in the future..."
Wulan, who just came out: …
Where did this young man come from? He is very talkative.
Qiao Qiao saw the new dogs at a glance and cheered, "Sister, you are so awesome! Were they all exchanged for the king? Why are they all injured? Did they lose the fight?"
King: "Woof?"
Song Tan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Then I can't bear to leave the king... These are all sick and come to our house to recuperate."
Qiao Qiao understood: "Okay! Then I'll build a nest for them on the corridor, okay? There are no houses on the mountain."
"Sure!" Song Tan agreed immediately, and pushed Zhu Xin over before he could even open his mouth: "Come, Qiao Qiao, this is the brother who drives the fire truck, you can take him to eat watermelon."
Let's shut up the chatter first, I'm really tired of listening to it.
A fire truck?! The one from the cartoon? Wow!
Qiao Qiao was instantly surprised: "Brother, let's eat watermelon! Our brother who drives an excavator here also loves to eat watermelon!"
As he said that, he took Zhu Xin's wrist and went straight into the house.
Meanwhile, Wu Lan also sighed: "I knew you couldn't bear to part with the three thousand yuan."
Look at what we got back. They had to pay for it, right
