Chapter 1128: 1104. Really should check the almanac
No one had considered the issue of passing through security yet. It was rare that once everyone was seated on the bus, there was a spontaneous sense of reluctance, even though they had only t today and only knew each other’s online nas.
Normally, urban n and won working in the city wouldn’t be so emotionally rich, but today was just too free, too happy, and too satisfying.
Zhu Xin and others reluctantly said goodbye to everyone.
They ca by car, so their trunk could be filled to the brim, ensuring that the cabbage and radishes each person received wouldn’t suffer in the slightest.
In comparison, the netizens who lived nearby but were too lazy to drive or pull luggage began to regret it even more.
Especially the three who ca to sign a contract with Qiaoqiao; they were so used to business trips, traveling light. Although Qiaoqiao prepared gifts equally for all, they didn’t even have a large bag, thus had to struggle with plastic bags...
It’s not that plastic bags are bad; it’s just that they had to forgo the cabbage and radishes, and the aroma of strawberries pierced through the bags...
It was really a test for them.
If only they’d known...
If only they’d known!
Moreover, Qin Yun, to ntion a few, had even joined their online friends’ WeChat group (to receive videos of their own embarrassing monts).
Now everyone was reluctantly bidding farewell, watching the bus and the cars from Ning Province drive away, and only after a while did that lancholy feeling dissipate along with the gradually cooling breeze.
"Quick, let’s go inside and warm up!"
Song Sancheng ca over carrying a basket of sweet potatoes: "Here, you young people go to that room to roast by the stove and eat sweet potatoes. Half of these will be taken to the old folks after they’re roasted."
A few old folks were chatting in the living room, talking about the past, with Supporting Actor Song Youde chiming in as a poor and lower-middle peasant reminiscing about bygone days...
Oh my, they truly hit it off!
They didn’t get tired of it even after several hours!
The young folks didn’t want to go into the living room either—what’s so special about central heating? They just loved the stove! Roasting sweet potatoes while having a heart-to-heart around the stove, the highlight was the sweet potatoes!
Everyone eagerly rushed into the room.
Except Wu Lan and Lun Jing hadn’t gone in yet.
Because at the door, her little aunt and older cousin also needed to hurry back to the urban area.
Her older cousin needed to prepare to sell egg pancakes early the next morning, so she had to go back and get organized tonight.
Her little aunt’s fruit business doesn’t stop for day or night, and she needed to return to help receive the goods tonight as well.
Wu Lan was quite reluctant to see them go, but since today had been busy and chaotic, and both sisters had worked hard to help all day, she couldn’t very well insist they stay and rest.
After much persuasion to no avail, Wu Fang was assigned to drive Grandma and Grandpa back, and then filled the trunk to the brim.
Radishes, cabbages, strawberries, waterlons, sweet potatoes, and millet stalks—two big bags stuffed with everything edible. Not to ntion a hefty pig’s trotter and two sections of at.
Her little aunt watched Zhang Yanping moving goods beside them, wanting to say sothing, but in the end, only managed to say, "Yanping, you should be more diligent... If you really don’t want to work, just co back and take the civil service exam! Once you beco a civil servant and an official, you won’t have to work anymore."
Zhang Yanping thought, not to ntion whether he could beco an official by taking the civil service exam, just consider the grassroots officials now, which one isn’t exhausted?
He’s not dumb!
But since his mother was leaving, he only half-heartedly agreed, umming and ahhing, which was a response of sorts.
anwhile, Grandma took another look at the closed room door and quietly advised Wu Lan:
"You need to act quickly. Xiaolun is such a good boy! Look at him, then look at others, is there anyone else as suitable?"
Grandma clicked her tongue, sighing: "I used to think Teacher Xin Jun was quite nice too, but their ho is too far, and doing business isn’t easy for Tantan to take on..."
She stared at Wu Lan: "You can’t indulge the child in everything. Nice als aren’t served on a platter, and if you wait until she’s thirty, where will you find soone better?"
"I’ve also seen Xiaolun’s mom, and she’s of good character. A good mother-in-law is the backbone of a family..."
Wu Lan: ...
My goodness, please watch your words. Lun Jing is standing right there at the door!
Wu Lan smiled awkwardly, but Lun Jing, on the other hand, was all eyes shining, trying hard not to laugh and pretending not to hear anything.
Otherwise, how to explain herself? Say she wants to join this family too? That’s inappropriate!
...
Finally, having seen off Grandma, her older cousin arrogantly showed her phone to Wu Lan: "Look at this, how many tis has Song Dafang called
today! Haha, Tantan really has a way with words, words that agitate people!"
She was extrely satisfied.
After all, the eldest son of this family initially took the most, but refused to care for the elderly in his later years, intentionally causing discord...
Oh well, trying to pass the burden onto her, serves him right to be upset!
Tantan was right, Song Hongi is not soone who will suffer losses like this!
Wu Lan was secretly delighted too—she had disliked Song Dafang for a long ti, but as a sister-in-law, there was nothing she could say. Now that things had unraveled, it was truly satisfying to see, especially with the string of missed calls from him...
Ah yo yo!
I have to say, Wu Lan’s heart felt as refreshed as if she’d drunk a cold soda on a hot sumr day!
Her older cousin is still the best. Although she’s frugal, she’s genuinely caring and helpful. Sotis family ties aren’t about money at all.
Her older cousin didn’t want the pig’s feet, so Wu Lan quickly stuffed several large pieces of pork and vegetables into her older cousin’s car: "Cousin, don’t be stingy, the kids are grown now, enjoy so! Here, take it ho and enjoy slowly—"
...
anwhile, in the small room.
Qin Yun, to ntion a few, angrily selected two large and plump sweet potatoes to place at the center of the stove, grumbling, "Today has truly been unlucky! Not only are we tempted by hunger, but also attacked by the geese monsters by the river!"
"Quite right, quite right!" He Kuang chid in: "Once the Samadhi True Fire is unleashed, and the largest Foreign Land Divine Fruit is roasted to perfection, you and I will share it, and the day shall be complete!"
The two of them were eagerly waiting, eyes fixed on the two round and large sweet potatoes on the stove.
Everyone else around them: ...
Professor Song was an honest man. His students had gone to tidy up the dorm rooms, and he was contentedly warming himself by the fire. Upon hearing this, he glanced at the two sweet potatoes, just about to say sothing, when Lun Chuan beside him put a finger to his lips and smiled with his eyes.
Looking over at Song Tan, Professor Song instantly understood.
Now, looking at Qin Yun and He Kuang, his eyes were full of affection: "I heard you both are writers? What kind of books do you write?"
Despite Qin Yun and He Kuang’s self-promotion and cockiness, they were actually quite timid in front of Professor Song and awkwardly replied:
"Just... I write novels, make up stories... like the urban rebirth types, reborn in the 2000s or the late eighties and nineties..."
This was what He Kuang wrote.
Qin Yun was doing a bit better, earnestly embellishing himself: "I write fantasy... like transmigrations and immortal cultivation or otherworld journeys..."
"Oh." Professor Song nodded thoughtfully, trying to relate to the younger generation’s interests: "Whatever you write, young people will surely enjoy it. If it’s adapted, the box office sales must be huge, right?"
He Kuang, who only adapted ani: ...
Qin Yun, who only adapted what’s known to be poorly conducted web series: ...
Yes indeed, today they should have checked the almanac!
