Xia Yunuo's head was buzzing, her cheeks flushed instantly, and she quickly lowered her head, trying to keep her mind focused as she played a puzzle game with Yingying in her arms.
But at that moment, her heart was pounding like a drum, and she could hear her heart beating so loudly that she felt a little tinnitus.
The main reason was that the title of "future wife" was too embarrassing, catching Xia Yunuo off guard for a moment.
I never expected that Song Yunshen would think of something so far in the future.
To be honest, who hasn't fantasized about their future partner when they were young?
But it's still quite shocking to secretly label a woman as your "future wife" in your mind.
Xia Yunuo couldn't help but think, what if Song Yunshen was her future husband...
Oh dear!
I can't think about this anymore!
That's so weird!
Song Yunshen didn't hear Xia Yunuo's thoughts. After thinking about what had just happened, he got up and quickly went to the restroom.
When he returned, he found that Xia Yunuo's two small feet, encased in white boat socks, were tucked under the skirt, with only her fair toes showing. Song Yunshen was slightly disappointed. He sat back down on the sofa and simply took out his phone to check the memorization homework Xia Jinshu had given him.
While memorizing vocabulary, Song Yunshen suddenly remembered that he had made a promise with Xia Jinshu to take her to the glasses shop this weekend.
It just so happens to be Saturday. Song Yunshen rolled his eyes, intending to send Xia Jinshu a message to remind her.
But after typing a string of words, Song Yunshen stopped and instead found his aunt Song Wantang's WeChat and sent her a message.
[ Song Yunshen ]: Aunt, I remember you mentioned coming here before, whose family owns an eyeglasses store near Wanda Plaza?
A few minutes later, Song Wantang replied to the message.
[ Song Wantang ]: It's run by your Auntie Cao, right? She plays mahjong with me. You've seen her before, haven't you?
[ Song Yunshen ]: Which glasses shop does Auntie Cao own? I'm planning to take a friend there to get their eyes checked.
[ Song Wantang ]: Answer the phone. I'm playing mahjong and too lazy to type.
The next second, Song Wantang's WeChat call came in, startling Song Yunshen.
Upon hearing the sound, Xia Yunuo and Yingying instinctively turned their heads to look at each other.
Song Yunshen Shen immediately jumped up from the sofa, coughed to keep his expression straight, and said calmly, "I'm going to answer a phone call; my aunt is looking for me." With that, he pushed open the door to his uncle's house and went out into the hallway.
Then, feeling it wasn't secure enough, he went to the opposite door, used facial recognition to open the door, and hurriedly slipped back to his own bedroom before finally pressing the answer button.
"Why is it so slow?" A clattering sound came from Song Wantang's side, indicating that they had just finished a round of mahjong and were washing the tiles.
" Yingying is in class, I need to excuse myself." After saying that, Song Yunshen asked, "Is it on speakerphone?"
"It's open."
"Oh, oh," Song Yunshen responded, then greeted her warmly and sweetly, " Auntie Cao! It's been so long! I've missed you so much!"
" Yunshen Shen?" Auntie Cao replied with a smile, "It's been so long since you've come to visit. When you were little, your aunt would carry you here to play mahjong every day. You've all grown up now."
" Yunshen is a top student at Ningjiang Middle School now, he doesn't have time to hang out with us old ladies," Auntie Liu joked with a smile.
" Auntie Liu!" Song Yunshen recognized the voice. He knew most of Song Wantang's mahjong friends, so he immediately called out, "You're not allowed to call yourself an old lady! If you go shopping with me, people will think you're my older sister!"
Auntie Liu burst into laughter upon hearing this, overjoyed.
Song Wantang had become somewhat immune to Song Yunshen's sweet talk, and interrupted, "Get to the point. Didn't you say you were going to your Auntie Cao's glasses shop?"
"Oh right," Song Yunshen said, " Auntie Cao, where is your glasses shop in Wanda? I'm going to check it out tonight." "I think it's on the basement level," Auntie Cao recalled, "I haven't been there in ages, it's in the food court on the basement level, near the exit."
"Okay, I'll go there tonight," Song Yunshen said. "Mainly to take my friend to get her eyesight checked. She's a little nearsighted, but has never had it checked before."
"Sure," Auntie Cao chuckled. "I'll tell the employees that you should say he's the boss's nephew and they won't charge you."
"What advantage are you trying to gain?" Song Wantang rolled her eyes at her. "Who's your nephew?"
"Oh, oh, oh, you're jealous now?" Auntie Cao teased. "You used to fight with Xiangwen all the time for your son, insisting on holding Yunshen while playing mahjong every day, never letting go of his hand."
"Don't talk too much," Song Wantang said irritably.
After chatting for a while, Song Yunshen thanked them and prepared to hang up the phone.
But before hanging up, he added, "Auntie, could you transfer two hundred yuan to me later?"
"What's wrong now?" Song Wantang asked suspiciously. "Didn't I just give you two thousand yuan? Have you used it all up so quickly?"
Three girls do cost a lot of money, but this money was used up too quickly.
"No." Song Yunshen had no idea what Song Wantang was thinking; if he did, he would definitely have retorted.
The three girls didn't spend a single penny. For a whole week, aside from spending a little money each day accompanying Xia Jinshu to buy groceries, they barely used any money at all. These three were incredibly frugal.
Even including the snacks Song Yunshen got for free from his grandmother, plus the cost of groceries, he probably only spent two or three hundred yuan in a week.
Given their attitudes, Song Yunshen would have to rack his brains to figure out a way to spend more money on them.
You don't want more!
Where can I go to reason with this?
"Why are you asking me for money if you didn't spend any?" Song Wantang asked again.
"Oh, I'll transfer it to you later," Song Yunshen said. "When you transfer it to me, also send a message saying you're not allowed to go home until you've spent all the money."
Song Wantang: "?"
"That's it, Auntie, hurry up." Song Yunshen said and hung up the phone.
Hearing him say that, the other girls were also intrigued and couldn't help but ask, "What does Yunshen mean by that?"
"How would I know?" Song Wantang shook her head, but still transferred two hundred yuan to Song Yunshen as he asked, and sent him a message as requested.
Song Yunshen immediately replied "ok". Please bookmark the only official website for Qixiaoshuo: www. deqixs. org. This is the only website; other websites may stop updating at any time.
After receiving the money, he transferred the two hundred yuan back.
This whole operation left Song Wantang completely bewildered.
[ Song Wantang ]: What exactly do you mean by that?
Song Yunshen didn't reply immediately. After hanging up the phone, he went back to his uncle's sofa next door.
Xia Yunuo glanced at him, but didn't think much of it, and continued playing with Yingying.
As soon as Song Yunshen sat down on the sofa, he opened Xia Jinshu's WeChat and sent her a message.
[ Song Yunshen ]: Where is Teacher Xia?
[ Xia Jinshu ]: At the library.
[ Song Yunshen ]: You're supposed to come with me to the glasses shop tonight, Teacher Xia, you haven't forgotten, have you?
[ Xia Jinshu ]: Yes, I promised you, you did very well this week.
[ Song Yunshen ]: Then don't go grocery shopping later. [ Xia Jinshu ]: Huh? What do you mean?
[ Song Yunshen ]: The glasses shop is near Wanda Plaza. We can go there to have a meal after class, and then go to the glasses shop.
[ Xia Jinshu ]: Can't we eat at home?
[ Song Yunshen ]: Oh dear, that's what I was thinking too, but isn't that glasses shop owned by my aunt's friend?
[ Song Yunshen ]: I just mentioned it to my aunt, and it turns out they're playing mahjong right now, Auntie Cao, the owner of the glasses shop, is there too.
[ Song Yunshen ]: I told her I wanted to take you to the glasses shop, and my aunt immediately transferred two hundred yuan to me, saying she wanted me to take you there to eat.
After saying that, Song Yunshen sent the screenshot to Xia Jinshu to prove that he had not lied to her.
Xia Jinshu, who was doing her homework in the library, was stunned when she saw the screenshot he sent. She hadn't expected Song Yunshen's aunt to be so polite.
[ Xia Jinshu ]: That's too expensive. Eating at Wanda Plaza is very expensive. It's unnecessary.
[ Song Yunshen ]: She's on a winning streak today, she won a lot of money playing mahjong, and she's already given it all away. If I hadn't taken you with me, she might have accused me of pocketing it.
[ Xia Jinshu ]: Then you'll return the money?
[ Song Yunshen ]: Teacher Xia, are you really that unwilling to have dinner with me? [ Xia Jinshu ]: I just feel that it's not right.
[ Song Yunshen ]: Then you can treat me to a meal when you start earning a salary.
Upon hearing Song Yunshen's words, Xia Jinshu hesitated for a moment.
Given her personality, she always feels guilty and embarrassed if someone pays to treat her to a meal.
After all, she knew very well how long the money for such a meal would normally last.
However, if it's about asking her to treat someone who has been kind to her to a meal, that's a different story.
Even if it's a little more expensive, it's something I should pay for.
Especially since her monthly salary was a full three thousand yuan, Song Yunshen's father also promised her a bonus.
It would be unreasonable to refuse to even treat someone to a meal.
Thinking of this, Xia Jinshu sighed slightly and had no choice but to agree.
[ Xia Jinshu ]: Then I'll listen to you. Please thank your aunt for me.
[ Song Yunshen ]: Okay. After replying, Song Yunshen Shen took a screenshot of his chat history with Xia Jinshu and sent it to Song Wantang, explaining the reason.
Song Wantang had just lost another round when she opened the screenshot sent by Song Yunshen. Her eyes went black, and she almost got so angry that she couldn't help but feel mad.
Too lazy to type, I just sent a voice message cursing at him. "So you're using your aunt as a tool to pick up girls?!"
Song Yunshen didn't listen at all. He immediately switched to text processing, glanced at the message his aunt sent, and replied with an "I love you forever" emoji.
The girls playing mahjong became curious and asked what was going on.
Song Wantang rolled her eyes and showed them her phone.
After reading it, Auntie Cao burst into laughter. " Yunshen is nothing like your two family members! He's got a whole repertoire of flirting skills with girls."
"Why are you still calling him 'teacher'?" Auntie Liu asked, puzzled.
"She was his summer tutor, a student from Ningjiang Middle School, a year ahead of him, and a very good student," Song Wantang said, adding, "She's also exceptionally beautiful."
"Oh my," Auntie Cao sighed, "Youth is so wonderful. My husband tricked me into marrying him in the same way, but now he's not romantic at all."
"Isn't that romantic enough?" Auntie Liu teased. "Didn't he open that glasses shop for you? If you don't think it's romantic, then give it to me."
"Get lost." Auntie Cao rolled her eyes at her, then turned to Song Wantang and said, "Judging from his expression, is he planning to buy this girl a pair of glasses?" "I don't know." Song Wantang shook her head. "He probably is, but the girl might not want them. You've noticed, he's quite principled."
"Girls like this are rare these days." Auntie Cao seemed to be reminiscing about her own youth, and suddenly became sentimental. "Here's what you'll do: tell him that if he's planning to buy the girl glasses, I won't charge him."
"You said it yourself." Song Wantang glanced at her sideways, still annoyed at herself for losing so much at mahjong today. Hearing this, she immediately seized the opportunity. "Come on, I'll record a voice message for you, so you can keep evidence and not try to renege on your promise later!"
"You think I'm like you?!" Auntie Cao scoffed, then leaned over and sent Song Yunshen a voice message.
Song Yunshen saw another voice message coming in, transcribed it into text, and realized it wasn't his aunt speaking.
So he got up again, went into the bathroom, clicked on the voice message, and after clearly hearing what Auntie Cao was saying, he immediately sent a voice message to express his gratitude.
Afterwards, Song Yunshen returned to the sofa, stretched, and yawned.
My mind started racing with plans for the evening.
[We're leaving at 5 PM to go to Wanda Plaza for dinner with Xia Jinshu. What should we eat? Barbecue again?]
[Or it depends on what she wants to eat; I'm fine with anything.]
[No, no, if we let her choose, she definitely won't pick what she likes to eat, but will specifically choose the cheapest ones. In that case, I'll choose.]
[After dinner, you can wander around a bit. There's no rush to go to the glasses shop; we don't have anything planned for the evening anyway.] [Oh, right, I need to tell Xia Kening in advance to come later, otherwise I won't be home.]
Auntie Cao said she could give away a pair of glasses for free, but we'll see how it goes. Xia Jinshu probably won't accept it; we'll have to play it by ear.
Song Yunshen pondered these things.
Xia Yunuo overheard everything.
Xia Yunuo, who had finished teaching and was playing with toys with Yingying, looked at Song Yunshen, who was lying on the sofa scrolling through his phone, with an incredulous expression after hearing these words.
What... what does that mean?
Why is my sister going out to eat with Song Yunshen again?!
Last time was one thing, let's just say it was because my sister was trying to find out about Song Yunshen.
So why this time?
I also need to go to the optician's to buy glasses for my sister!
My older sister seems to be a little nearsighted, but she keeps saying it's okay, the degree isn't high and it doesn't affect her classes.
How come she's already eating and shopping with Song Yunshen?! She hasn't even gone to that barbecue place with Song Yunshen yet...
I should have agreed to go eat with him earlier!
