On all Sundays and Solemnities (Christmas, All Saints, Immaculate Conception, Assumption, etc.) there are three (well, four if you count the psalm), usually an Old Testament reading, a psalm, a New Testament reading, and the Gospel. Weekday Masses only have one reading, the psalm, and the Gospel, there is no second reading on a non-solemnity.

It must be late Afternoon or evening, a Saturday Mass celebrated with the weekday (Saturday) readings does NOT count as your Sunday obligation. The important thing is whether the actual Mass being said is the Mass of Sunday or the Holy Day: i.e., it has three readings from the Sunday, the Gloria, Creed, etc. If the Sunday Mass is being celebrated, then it fulfills your obligation. If it is another Mass, say, perhaps a Saturday Mass being celebrated in the afternoon for a wedding, then it would not count for your obligation.
