Stock up in space to survive and save civilization in the end of the world
Chapter 9 That Era 3
The afterglow of the setting sun shone in the yard. Lin Qian used the leftover braised pork from lunch to make a braised pork and winter melon soup. The winter melon relieves greasiness, and now the fragrance of the soup has spread.
However, the people who went out to do errands in the afternoon had not yet arrived home, and the soup was still simmering slowly in the kitchen over a low fire.
"Maomao, please eat a meat bun first!" Lin Qian was afraid that the little one would get hungry while waiting, which would hurt her stomach.
"No, let's eat together when mom comes back!" Maomao's little face was firm.
Could something have happened? Lin Qian couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
Ms. Gao Xiaoan went out with her household registration book and ID card at two o'clock in the afternoon, but she still hasn't come back at six o'clock.
Just when Lin Qian was about to take Maomao out to find her.
She came back with the same haircut as Lin Qian.
The mother and daughter looked at each other and smiled in tacit understanding, and Lin Qian said: "You're back just in time, it's time to eat!"
One bowl of braised pork and winter melon soup per person. The main food is on a large plate, including meat buns and flower rolls.
Gao Xiaoan sat down and took a sip of the soup, then took a bite of the roll and asked, "Sissi, did you buy it on the street? This roll is so delicious."
Lin Qian wiped Maomao's mouth with a cotton cloth and replied: "No, the flower rolls were given by Grandma Song next door. Mom, didn't you say that the braised pork today was delicious? When Maomao was sleeping, I bought another one for Grandma Song. , thanked her for coming over to steam the steamed buns, and then Grandma Song gave me some freshly baked flower rolls."
What was delivered was braised pork from the space. The Song family and the Lin family across the street were close friends. The male owners, Song Wenxuan and Lin Zhongqin, had known each other for many years and were very familiar with each other.
"Has your Aunt Zeng come home?" Gao Xiao'an asked.
Lin Qian replied: "No, Grandma Song said that another batch of goods has arrived from the supply and marketing cooperative, and Aunt Zeng will not be free on weekends."
Gao Xiaoan nodded: "It's time to thank their family. Thanks to Grandma Song who came to help me. She not only taught me how to make steamed buns but also helped me take care of Maomao."
Lin Qian picked up a flower roll and took a bite. What she didn't say was that she met Song Qiuyuan when she was at Song's house this afternoon.
The youngest boy of the Song family, he was also Qiuyuan's brother who always took good care of her in Lin Qian's memory.
The 17-year-old boy, wearing a white shirt, came out of the house and stood under the grape arbor and smiled gently at her, which made Lin Qian feel the beauty of young people for the first time.
When she was in high school, she mainly played a straight girl. Confession? love letter? Under the pressure of survival, these things are not as happy as a piece of RMB to make her happy.
But the little girl is different. There is a box in her room that contains various small gifts that Song Qiuyuan gave her, including poems that he asked him to help copy with a brush, and pebbles that they picked up from the river together.
If it hadn't been for a sudden change, the two of them might have had a good story like the little girl's parents.
But now that Lin Qian is here, she almost runs away from Song Qiuyuan's warm gaze.
"I have already written the application materials for going to the countryside and handed them to Director Deng. She said that she would try her best to ask the Educated Youth Office to arrange for us to go to the commune where our grandparents live, but she did not guarantee whether it would be successful. She would have to ask before she could give an answer."
Gao Xiaoan interrupted Lin Qian's contemplation and continued: "Then I went to the leader of your father's work unit and told him about this matter. School Wu was also very supportive and said that he would find someone to help at night and find a way to help our family. Go to the same place.”
"In addition, he will also help with your father's salary and subsidies. They will be sent to the countryside where we are going every month. We can get it at the local post and telecommunications office with our family's household registration book."
Nodding, Lin Qian and Gao Xiaoan began to pack the things they wanted to bring.
The next morning, when it was still slightly bright at six o'clock, Lin Qian woke up and went to the kitchen to boil hot water.
After washing up, I pinched a handful of green onions in the yard and looked at the eggs and Fuqiang powder in the cupboard. There weren't many left.
After taking out the amount to be used in the morning, I took out a slightly smaller amount from the space to add it, and then started to make chive and egg pancakes. After heating the pan, I poured in the oil and fried it. After a while, I spread it out in a high pile.
He left half of it in the kitchen and when he brought the rest of the egg pancake to the table, Gao Xiaoan was washing up in the yard with Maomao.
Lin Qian opened the cabinet in the living room, took out the remaining half can of malted milk, picked up the thermos and brewed three bowls. The sweet frankincense mixed with the salty aroma of the egg pancakes instantly whet your appetite.
The three of them hurriedly sat down. Gao Xiaoan took a bite and said it was delicious. Maomao held the chive egg pancake in his hands, which was bigger than his little face, and his mouth was full of oil.
After eating, the mother and daughter agreed that Lin Qian would go to the street to find Director Deng, while Gao Xiaoan stayed at home and continued packing.
Before going out, Lin Qian deliberately used the cosmetics she took out from the space last night to put on a mature nude makeup, and at the same time changed into dark clothes. She looked more mature, like a girl of about 18 years old.
After wrapping the chive egg pancakes saved in the morning in oil paper, Lin Qian first went to Wang Xia's house in the next street.
Wang Xia is two years older than her. They are in the same school and in different grades.
Lin Qian came to her to ask for her help in taking the suspension application back to her class teacher on Monday.
Wang Xia took the envelope and carefully put it in her schoolbag, looking at the egg pancake Lin Qian forced into her hand with some embarrassment.
It was really confusing. Wang Xia wanted to refuse in her heart, but the aroma of eggs spread out along the bag. Once she smelled it, she was willing to put eggs and oil in it. It must be delicious!
Not feeling the other party's entanglement, Lin Qian said goodbye and felt that she had accomplished one more thing. The next step was to go to the subdistrict office to find Director Deng for information.
There are not so many separate offices these days. Director Deng also works in the same room with several people. After seeing her, he immediately gave a definite reply. The formal acceptance letter will not be available until next Tuesday.
Director Deng also told her that the village their family was going to was called Heilingtun, where her grandparents were undergoing labor reform.
Along with the acceptance letter came a dozen yuan for resettlement expenses for educated youths sent to the countryside, and subsidized cloth and candy coupons. In addition, train tickets were also included.
Director Deng then led Lin Qian to the office next door to find a young girl. After handing her a certificate, he said to her: "Xiao Li, this is Lin Qian, the daughter of Professor Lin Zhongqin. She and her mother are both I want to be a progressive youth, respond to the country’s call, and go to support the construction of new rural areas. I’m thinking that your father works on the railway, and I want to see if I can help them buy a better position.”
"No problem, director, I will talk to my dad about this when I get back tonight." Xiao Li nodded cheerfully, opened the letter of certification, and said with a smile: "Let me see, I am going to the Northeast, there are only There is a train going there. The departure time is at eight in the morning. It will arrive at Harbin Station at ten in the morning the next day. Which day does sister Lin Qian plan to buy the ticket? "
"Thank you, Sister Li. Please help us buy tickets for Wednesday morning." Lin Qian felt that she couldn't delay and wanted to leave early and feel at ease.
"Okay, I'll go back tonight and ask my dad to help buy it. They are easy to talk to. You can come and get it the day after tomorrow."
Lin Qian asked again: "I have a younger brother coming with us. Can we buy an extra seat for him with our own money?"
She also knew that in this era, sleepers were out of the question, but could she buy an extra seat? Otherwise, sitting with Maomao all day and night would be tiring.
Xiao Li shook his head and said, "I remember your brother was still very young. He is too young to buy a ticket."
After seeing the curiosity and confusion in Lin Qian's eyes, Xiao Li smiled and said: "Oh, who among our neighbors still doesn't know about your family! When I was a child, I thought about marrying your father when I grow up, but one day I see you After my mother walked with him, she immediately gave up the idea. Hahaha!"
It turned out that this was the case, Lin Qian was a little dumbfounded.
