Traveling between the 70s and the modern world

Chapter 338: Receiving the wind and washing away the dust

Lin Qingyan quickly cooked several dishes, and when the last dish in the pot was done, they could eat.

"Qingxuan, come and help carry the table to the yard."

"Sister, is this table enough?"

Lin Qingxuan counted the number of people eating in his mind. There were three of them in his family, four people including Ye Yi, and Xu Jianshan whom he had never met before, making a total of eight people.

After counting the number of people, Lin Qingxuan went to find a bench.

"Sister, there aren't enough stools."

Lin Qingyan was also a little annoyed. The furniture she and Ye Yi had bought from the scrap yard was no longer enough, especially as there were more and more people in the family.

It looks like I'll have to go to the scrap yard soon to buy some furniture, and I'll also have to clean up the house next door.

"Just get some other things and sit here for a while. I'll buy some more tomorrow."

Liu Huizhen felt very sorry after hearing this. It would be great if his family's Lao Lin was also there. Lao Lin could make the stool himself. However, it has only been two days since he came out. Why did he think of Lao Lin so many times?

"Qingxuan, take out the pickles I put on the plate and put them on the table first."

As soon as Lin Qingyan finished her words, she heard the sound of someone pushing the door outside, followed by the sound of someone walking very quickly.

She turned around and saw Ye Yi and Wang Lanlan running in together. Lin Qingyan smiled.

"I'm back. Go wash your hands. You can eat soon."

But Ye Yi hugged him.

"Qingyan, you're finally back. You know these people haven't heard from you for a long time. Wang Lanlan and I were very worried."

"That's right, Qingyan, you must take me with you next time you go out, at least let me see the outside world."

Wang Lanlan followed closely behind, but the style changed when it came to her.

Before Lin Qingyan could speak, Ye Yi interrupted her.

"Comrade Wang Lanlan, this time you said you would criticize Qingyan and not let her go out casually. What are you doing now? You actually asked her to take you out with her? What are you laughing at?"

Ye Yi found it a bit funny. They were clearly talking to each other and trying to scare Qingyan, but this guy turned out to be a betrayer as soon as they met.

"I'm just trying to persuade Qingyan!"

Wang Lanlan felt a little lacking in confidence.

"I see you want to go too!" Ye Yi directly exposed her inner thoughts.

"Yes, I do want to go, Qingyan, can you take me with you next time you go out? As long as you can let me go, I'll be fine even if I call you sister in the future."

Wang Lanlan hid directly on the other side of Lin Qingyan.

Lin Qingyan looked at the two of them with a smile, but she was thinking, I can't take them with me.

How could she use the space? The train ride alone took a long time, but she didn't show it on her face.

"Okay, we'll go together if we have a chance. But Comrade Wang Lanlan, if you just recognize a sister, will the village chief uncle and aunt know about it?"

"They don't need to know. Even if they knew, they would definitely support me. Qingyan, you don't know that you have a much higher status in their hearts than me, their own daughter.

If I do something, they will definitely disagree, but if I say Qingyan asked me to do it, they will definitely not have any objections and will agree immediately, and they may even urge me to do it faster. "

Wang Lanlan felt helpless to have such a pair of parents, but she felt sweet in her heart.

Liu Huizhen, who was in the kitchen, heard the chattering of several little girls and felt that the affection between them was no less than that of family.

While the girls were talking, Gu Yizhou and Xu Jianshan, who were following behind them, also came.

"Isn't Fang Yunxing coming today?"

Lin Qingyan didn't see Fang Yunxing.

"Come on, I heard you were cooking, so he asked for leave and will be here soon."

What Gu Yizhou didn't say was that he called Fang Yunxing, and that guy asked for leave to go out for dinner. When he goes back tomorrow, his leader will definitely know that he asked for leave just to have dinner, and he will definitely be criticized.

After answering Lin Qingyan's question, Gu Yizhou went to the kitchen to help Liu Huizhen.

"Aunt, let me help you."

"Yizhou, just go out and play with them. These are all cooked by Qingyan. There is only one dish left. When everyone arrives, just serve it out."

Liu Huizhen was just about to lift the lid of the pot to see if the last dish was ready.

"Everyone else is here, except Yun Xing. He will probably be here in a while, so we don't have to wait for him. Just leave some food for him."

Gu Yizhou pointed at the dishes on the stove.

"Aunt, should we take these out now?"

"Sure. It's hot in summer, so the food doesn't have to get cold. Take it out and put it on the table."

Liu Huizhen looked at Lin Qingyan outside through the kitchen window. Her daughter was not as considerate as her future son-in-law. Look, this son-in-law came to help as soon as he came back. Liu Huizhen is quite satisfied with Gu Yizhou now.

"Qingyan, is it Auntie who cooked the dishes today?"

When Ye Yi saw Gu Yizhou carrying out the dishes, she stopped making trouble with Lin Qingyan and wanted to go to help, but was stopped by Wang Lanlan.

"Don't join in the fun. Your performance is not bad for Auntie. Go wash your hands now and see if there is anything else you need to do."

Wang Lanlan looked at Lin Qingyan happily while speaking. Lin Qingyan glared at them lightly, and then she had time to introduce Lin Qingxuan to Xu Jianshan.

"Xu Jianshan, this is my brother Lin Qingxuan. Qingxuan, this is Xu Jianshan who joined the team in Xishui Village with us. He is also one of my sister's good friends."

After Xu Jianshan came to Beijing, he became more introverted and mature. He lived in the photo studio during the summer vacation and came into contact with all kinds of people, which made his temper become more and more gentle.

Seeing Lin Qingyan introducing Lin Qingxuan to him, he smiled gently and said to Lin Qingxuan:

"I'm Xu Jianshan. You can call me Brother Jianshan or Brother Xu from now on."

"Then I'll call you Brother Xu. Brother Xu, come sit over here. Those girls over there are chattering and making a lot of noise!"

As soon as Lin Qingxuan finished speaking, Wang Lanlan, who had just washed her hands, heard him and said to him impolitely:

"Brother, who are you talking about? Don't think you can talk nonsense just because you are a child. You will be punished if you talk nonsense."

"Sister Lanlan, I'm sorry, I was wrong, really, I was saying that I was the one making the noise myself." Lin Qingxuan begged for mercy.

While they were playing, Lin Qingyan returned to her room and took out a big watermelon.

There is a cabinet in her room. She bought a lock and usually locks the cabinet so that others don't know what is in the cabinet and it gives her an excuse to take out strange things.

When Ye Yi and the others saw the watermelons, they thought that Lin Qingyan had bought them earlier, while Liu Huizhen thought that Ye Yi and the others had brought them back, so they didn't need to make excuses this time.

"Qingyan, are there still big watermelons? I wonder if the watermelon seeds I planted in the backyard last time have grown."

"Let's save the watermelon seeds this time and plant some in the corners of the walls and in the backyard, or wait until next year to plant them. This way we will have watermelons to eat in the summer." Wang Lanlan suggested.

"It would be nice if we had a piece of land so we could grow our own crops."

Lin Qingyan's sigh was heard by Gu Yizhou who came out of the kitchen. He turned back to the kitchen with a thoughtful look.
