Chapter 582: Old Song Family's Gossip

~7 min read 1,317 words

Sun Ziruo was eating watermelon kuakua, and told Song Tan about someone wanting a phone number.

Song Tan instantly became energetic: "You said you were with Zhou Tianyu? How was it? Is she pretty?"

Everyone also tacitly gathered around.

Sun Ziruo chewed the watermelon in his mouth slowly, while recalling: "It's okay, I don't remember very clearly, definitely not as good-looking as you."

"But her personality is quite generous and she loves to laugh. Her height is average, not fat, wearing a floral shirt, her skin is a little dark, her face is round, and she has a dimple on her cheek when she smiles, quite deep, and her teeth are neat—"

Unlike him, his teeth are uneven and not good-looking.

Everyone:... Don't remember very clearly?

"Then do you think they have a chance?" Song Tan changed the question.

This time Sun Zhiruo didn't hesitate:

"That must have a chance! If there was no chance, who would run up the mountain at noon in such hot weather!"

Then he pulled his vest: "Look, my skin is peeling from the sun, the sun is too poisonous."

That makes sense, everyone nodded.

Everyone listened to half of the gossip, and couldn't help but feel a little itchy in their hearts. Song Tan asked for the other party's phone number and decided to call and ask what happened in the afternoon.

However, this half of the gossip actually wasn't accurate!

Because when packing marinade bags in the afternoon, Chen Shen and Li Lanhua were laughing and talking, but the topic had already shifted to the next blind date object!

Until Wu Lan couldn't help it: "What? Didn't you like the one this morning?"

Speaking of this, Li Lanhua felt pain: "Don't mention it, the girl is really good! It's just that my son is not competitive... Sigh!"

Li Lanhua felt pain from the heart.

Originally, seeing the two of them walking down the mountain, she thought there was a chance. Unexpectedly, the girl said it directly during lunch.

"Aunt, your hospitality is so good, I'm embarrassed... It's mainly because Zhou Tianyu and I don't have any fate, so I've made you spend money."

Why was there no fate?

Li Lanhua was anxious: "Is it because this child doesn't know how to speak?"

"No, no."

Tian Tian shook her head: "It's my problem."

"I think you are very good at educating children, Zhou Tianyu is honest, knowledgeable, knows many things about big cities, and earns such a high salary in Beicheng..."

Zhou Tianyu, who only agreed with Tian Tian not to say he broke chestnuts:...??? Am I that excellent?

"... I only have a high school diploma, so it's a bit mismatched. Plus, my parents' health is bad, and I have to take care of them. If I really dated Zhou Tianyu, wouldn't this be putting our family's burden on your family, Aunt? That's not appropriate."

Tian Tian sighed: "So, Aunt, don't blame Zhou Tianyu, it's really not his problem. It's because he is very honest that I thought I couldn't delay him."

"It's just embarrassing, delaying you all..."

She looked apologetically at the rich meal on the table and Chen Shen who was looking over with worry.

"I didn't expect his future to be so good, earning so much... I thought it was about the same as mine."

Listen to this! Listen to this!

Even a son with scabs is good in his own home. Which mother wouldn't feel floating when hearing this?

Even so, she still felt that this girl was sensible and a good girl, so she wanted to struggle again.

Unexpectedly, Tian Tian confessed her family situation—parents' health is bad, there are debts at home, and her younger brother is still in school.

If they really became a family, their family's burden was already quite heavy. If the daughter-in-law's family needed money for something... They, they were also in a dilemma!

This is not it, Li Lanhua is still sighing:

"Tell me, why is there a lack of fate?! If my family had better conditions, I would have kept her as my daughter-in-law no matter what."

Until Wu Lan and Song Tan looked at each other.

This girl was putting gold on people's faces in every word, taking care of both the matchmaker and the blind date family.

So much so that even though the blind date didn't work out, the two sides were not embarrassed at all, and even made people feel sorry.

Good guy, this emotional intelligence, this art of speaking, Secretary Xiao Zhu met her match!

Just this, how did Sun Ziruo see it at noon? This is clearly worlds apart from Zhou Tianyu, okay? How did he see there was a chance?!

Song Tan took out her phone immediately.

A girl with such high emotional intelligence, wanting to chat with her, must have something real.

Connecting to the family conditions she reported as bad, maybe the time is quite tight, she doesn't need to delay, contact her quickly.

And over there, Tian Tian felt a tug in her heart when she saw the strange number, and answered it without saying a word.

On the other end of the phone, Song Tan's voice was crisp and direct: "Hello, I'm Song Tan. I heard from Sun Ziruo that you have something to do with me?"

Tian Tian was truly surprised.

She didn't expect the other party to call so quickly. She thought Sun Ziruo would send the number after getting a reply, and she would pick a suitable time to contact...

But at this moment, she couldn't care about that much, she quickly responded: "I'm Tian Tian. I want to ask, is your family still hiring recently? Is there anything I can do?"

Song Tan thought for a while—there is really nothing to do recently, otherwise the cousins wouldn't be on vacation.

She could only reply: "August shouldn't be short of people, we need people in September."

In September, houses are built on the mountain, and what should be planted should be planted, and what should be harvested should be harvested... There are quite a lot of things.

Tian Tian was not discouraged. This season is not busy in the countryside anyway.

She just asked again:

"I heard your family planted fruit trees, and I saw chestnuts today. May I ask if you need pruning?"

"I have been following my dad into the orchard to prune since I was a child, so I have experience. If your fruit trees and chestnut trees need pruning, I will prune them for you for free, but can you give me some of the pruned branches? I'll take them back for grafting?"

She was a little embarrassed, and quickly added:

"Don't worry, my chestnut orchard is not big, just two acres. There are a dozen peach trees, usually just carrying the extra ones to the town to sell."

Saying this also meant to tell Song Tan that she didn't mean to grab business from the other party, just to improve the family conditions, hoping that the fruit could earn a little more.

Otherwise, at the current market, when local peaches are on the market, they might not sell well at five cents a jin in their town, let alone chestnuts.

Two acres of land, working yourself to death, how much money can you earn?

But for Song Tan, pruning and grafting don't matter at all!

Although after being nourished by spiritual energy, these branches will have advantages over the previous ones and be more robust, but if you want to make a big improvement in the fruit by grafting branches, that is definitely impossible.

At most, the taste will be slightly improved.

In Song Tan's plan, this could also be shared with the villagers, but each family wouldn't give so much.

But now that someone is pruning for her for free...

She agreed immediately: "Okay!" ===== CHAPTER 583 =====
