Chapter 536: Chapter 536: Shopping and Proposing
“Tell me about what happened tonight,” Qiao Xiaomai said after hearing Tong Sanlang’s words.
Tong Sanlang held her tightly and briefly told her about the night’s events.
After listening, Xiaomai couldn’t help but pat Tong Sanlang’s back again.
Alright, she understood.
Tong Sanlang was heartbroken tonight.
Thinking of the Zhang Family’s behaviour when asking for food that day, she again patted Tong Sanlang’s back.
Tong Sanlang, such a good son, yet the Zhang Family really had the heart to chastise him.
“I understand now, you want to separate from the family.”
Tong Sarlang was worried about her, he didn’t want her to bear the Zhang Family’s wrath, and she felt the same way.
She also didn’t want Tong Sanlang to bear the Zhang Family’s wrath.
Tong Sanlang was heartbroken tonight, naturally, Qiao Xiaomai wanted to give him hugs and kisses. As for lifting him up, she passed on that, and instead led him into the house. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
Once on the bed, she had Tong Sanlang lie on his side. She laid behind him, intending to emulate his previous actions by holding him in her arms.
After trying a few times, she gave up reluctantly.
Tong Sanlang’s shoulders were too wide, and his torso too thick, she could only spread her arms and legs to wrap around him.
Tong Sanlang couldn’t help but smile when he saw her trying various positions behind him. Suddenly, he turned around, stretched out his arms, and hugged Qiao Xiaomai tightly, “let me hold you instead.”
Her body abruptly fell into Tong Sanlang’s familiar embrace. Qiao Xiaomai uttered a sound, and wrapped around him like a vine, “lad, this position is better.”
Tong Sanlang caressed her long hair, softly chuckling, “go to sleep.”
Although his mother did not understand him, he only felt a swell in his chest with Qiao Xiaomai there.
It felt so good.
Having her was so good.
The night passed quickly, and in the early morning, Tong Sanlang sneaked back home.
Not long after he laid down on his own bed, the sound of the door opening rang through.
The Zhang family was up.
Yesterday, Zhang Family got a silver bill from Tong Sanlang, so today, she was going to town to buy engagement gifts.
There were no fixed customs for engagements in this area, you could buy whatever you liked. Zhang family took out her own savings and went to town with Zhu Hongyun.
Zhang Family thought that Qiao Xiaomai had a pretty face and wanted to buy her some jewelry.
After checking out all the better-looking jewelry at their daughter’s loft, Zhang family dismissed the idea.
After nearly one hundred taels of silver was spent, the designs were no longer stunning. If they didn’t suit Qiao Xiaomai’s taste, it would be a waste.
Zhu Hongyun suggested to her to negotiate with the shopkeeper. In case Qiao Xiaomai didn’t want it, it could be returned.
Upon hearing this, Zhang family’s eyes lit up. She spent half an hour haggling with the shopkeeper, eventually buying a gold rattle-drum for one hundred and fifty taels.
If Qiao Xiaomai didn’t want it, it could be returned, but the shop would charge five silver taels for depreciation.
This result was already good. Remembering the saying “no pain, no gain”, she and Zhu Hongyun also bought a set of rouge and face powder, then left the daughter’s loft.
With more than half of the two hundred taels of silver spent, Zhang Family purchased a roll of silk cloth and spent the remaining silver.
Carrying the rouge, face powder, silk cloth, and gold rattle-drum, Zhang Family and Zhu Hongyun knocked on Qiao Xiaomai’s door.
As forceful as she was last time, this time she needed to be just as amiable.
Qiao Xiaomai waited at home specially, a trait she never showed before.
Opening the door and seeing Zhang Family and Zhu Hongyun standing outside, she smiled, “Auntie, what brings you here?”
“Just dropping by,” Zhang family said with a very friendly and gentle smile.
