Bai Fumei in the '70s

91-100

Chapter 91

Before He Songbai had time to get back to Zhao Lanxiang, he was shocked by her proposal.

His ears were buzzing, as if some fairy music lingered in his ears. At that moment, it felt as if he was so light that he could soar in the sky. She wanted to take him to see her parents. She must have a lot of courage!

He Songbai had some longing to see Zhao Lanxiang's family, hoping to get to know them. Otherwise, he would be able to control his legs. He subconsciously came near her house and wanted to play with the little Huzi. In the afternoon, he almost accompanied him to throw the round sand-ball!

Her brother looked a lot like her, lively and cute.

He Songbai's whole heart was bubbling with happiness, and it took him a long time to wake up.

He... can't meet his girlfriend's parents!

It was not a good time to visit.

Zhao Lanxiang pulled his hand, but he pulled her back a few steps instead.

He whispered with a smile, "Forget it."

"Wait next time. Today I am not prepared. Do you want me to go to your door, empty-handed? This... this can't work. Isn't this rude?"

He Songbai looked at Zhao Lanxiang. He couldn't help but touch her face and smoothly wrapped it up with her scarf.

"Go back. It's too cold."

Zhao Lanxiang glared at him, "If you don't want to come empty-handed, then let's go buy fruit with me."

Although the supply and marketing cooperatives had not opened yet, many production teams around City G were growing oranges and grapefruit in the counties. During the New Year, two or three farmers would pick some fruits and sell them.

Zhao Lanxiang dragged him and said, "You agree to me quickly." 

"Otherwise, we would be pulling each other on the street now, and it will not look good. I am afraid we will be taken away by the police as delinquents. It will be your fault!"

He Songbai heard her words, felt as if he was choked for a while. He was dumbfounded and silently withdrew his hand.

He looked at her unshakable eyes and knew that he was in trouble.

Zhao Lanxiang said again, "I promise not to tell them that you are my boyfriend. Just treat it as me entertaining a friend from far away?"

"Don't you want to see where I grew up and see my family?"

Zhao Lanxiang thought as if He Songbai could do anything else other than agree to her? He had never been able to reject her.

He was very distressed, but the excuse that she prepared was very positive.

He Songbai bought some fruits, and along the way, he saw someone selling his homemade sweet wine inside a clean soy sauce bottle.

Zhao Lanxiang said, "My mother usually likes sweet wine."

The two people walked around the street, and He Songbai bought a bunch of things. He even ran to someone's house and bought some candy at a high price. He ran to the black market and bought pork—a piece of pork, a bag of candy, a pack of cigarettes. Things were very random, because during the New Year, the supply and marketing cooperatives do not open at all, and the black market was also closed. These gifts were only scattered things from other people.

After a long time of speculation, He Songbai developed a pair of sharp eyes.

Which one was a seller; he can recognize them at first glance.
