A powerful country in scientific research

Li Yun quickly said, "Of course, let's go back first. Isn't He Zhiqing still here? We can't let him wait with us. Besides, everyone in your team knows where your home is. If Sister Zhang Xue can't find it, just ask someone else."

Zhang Xue nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, if I really can't find it, I'll just ask someone else. Don't worry, you guys should leave quickly. If you go back early, you can help grandma cook. She can't prepare all these dishes by herself."

Su Ran felt that the two of them were a little strange, but what he said was right. If she went back earlier, she could help grandma cook.

"Okay, then Sister Zhang Xue, we'll leave first."

Zhang Xue heaved a sigh of relief and smiled faintly, "Okay, go ahead."

Su Ran: "Yeah."

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Yun was afraid that she would go back on her word, so she dragged Su Ran away.

Su Ran was brought out with a confused look on her face. "Xiao Yun, why are you so anxious?"

Li Yun: "I just miss my grandma. I haven't eaten her cooking for a long time. I'm craving for it."

Su Ran smiled when he heard this, "Then you should eat more today."

Li Yun exclaimed excitedly. What she just said was not a random excuse. Grandma Jiang was a good cook and she was really craving for the food she cooked.

Su Ran and Li Yun walked towards the gate, and as soon as they stepped out, they saw the man at the door.

It is March now, the weather has become much warmer, and it doesn't get dark so early. Just like in the past winter when it was dark at six o'clock, now it is still light.

He Cheng stood at the door, wearing a black suit that highlighted his slender figure and upright posture. His thick eyebrows were furrowed, and he looked a little tired, but it still did not damage his handsome appearance. The sun shone on his high nose bridge, and his well-defined face looked particularly handsome. He held his slender arms in front of his chest, smiled lightly, and his eyes were deep, revealing a sense of maturity and stability, which made people involuntarily attracted.

Since coming to Qinghe Brigade and setting up an oil press factory, He Cheng has become much less childish and is becoming more and more like a mature man.

Su Ran smiled and said, "You're here~"

Seeing Su Ran, He Cheng couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, "Well, let's go."

Su Ran smiled and nodded.

When Li Yun saw the two of them finished their eye contact, she smiled and greeted He Cheng, "He Zhiqing."

He Cheng nodded at her.

"Sister Zhang Xue isn't going with us?" He Cheng asked puzzledly.

Just now, he saw only Su Ran and Li Yun coming out, so he wanted to ask, because Su Ran clearly said that there were three of them together.

"Sister Zhang Xue forgot to tell the family we're staying with, and she's afraid they'll worry, so she has to go back and tell them." Su Ran explained.

He Cheng nodded, "Okay, let's go first."

"Ah."

The three of them walked side by side towards Grandma Jiang's house while talking.

Against the backdrop of the setting sun, their figures became smaller and smaller, and they moved further and further away in the direction of the Jiangshui Brigade.

Twenty minutes later, the three finally arrived at Jiang's house. Su Ran took He Cheng and Li Yun into the main hall.

Su Ran looked around the house but didn't see Grandma Jiang and Grandpa Jiang. She said to He Cheng and Li Yun, "Grandma and Grandpa are probably in the kitchen. You two should sit here and rest for a while."

"What about you?" He Cheng asked.

Su Ran: "I'm going to the kitchen to help grandma and grandpa."

He Cheng, who had just sat down, stood up quickly and said, "I'll go with you."

Su Ran was about to refuse when Grandpa Jiang, who heard the noise, came to the main room. Seeing the three people in the room, he hurriedly said, "Xiao He and Xiao Li are here. Why are you all standing there? Sit down quickly. Why didn't Ran Ran pour them some water?"

He Cheng waved his hands repeatedly, "Grandpa, I'm not thirsty."

"Grandpa, I'm not thirsty either. I just drank some water when I came out." Li Yun also said.

Grandpa Jiang: "You have to pour some water, just in case you get thirsty. Ranran, go quickly."

"Okay~" After saying that, Su Ran went to the house to get the kettle.

After returning with the kettle, Su Ran poured water for He Cheng and the other man, and also poured a cup for herself and Grandpa Jiang.

"Grandpa, where's grandma? Where's the kitchen?"

Grandpa Jiang nodded, "Yes, I'm preparing dinner."

Su Ran stood up and said, "I'll go help."

Grandpa Jiang quickly held her back and said, "Don't go. Stay here and entertain Xiao He and Xiao Li. I'll go help. The dishes are ready. Now that you're here, I'll tell grandma to start cooking."

Su Ran wanted to say something, but Grandpa Jiang glared at her and said, "You are leaving tomorrow. We don't know when you will meet Xiao He and Xiao Li next time. You should spend some time with them and talk to them. We are just cooking some food. How tired can it be? After tomorrow, we have plenty of time to rest."

Su Ran was silent. Well, what her grandfather said did make sense.

Seeing that Su Ran didn't say anything, Grandpa Jiang knew that she agreed to his proposal. After exchanging a few words with He Cheng and Li Yun, he went to the kitchen.

As the host, Su Ran is responsible for chatting with the guests and entertaining them.

The three of them were chatting and laughing, and soon, Zhang Xue arrived.

Zhang Xue was holding a box. After she entered the room, she handed the box directly to Su Ran who was sitting on the sofa.

Su Ran looked at the box on her lap in confusion, then raised her head to look at Zhang Xue. She asked in confusion, "Sister Zhang Xue, what is this?"

Zhang Xue smiled and said, "Ran Ran, you are leaving soon, so I bought you a gift. Although I can't hold a farewell party, I still have to accept the gift. I asked my mother to pick out this pair of shoes at the Haishi Department Store. They will look great on you! Open them and see if you like them~~"

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Yun quickly stood up and put the pen in her pocket on Su Ran's legs. After handing it to her, she sat back in her seat.

Su Ran only felt a gust of wind in front of him, and then an exquisite little box appeared on his legs.

She frowned, "Xiao Yun, why are you also..."

"Sister Ranran, you have taken such good care of me these days. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to run a greenhouse, and I wouldn't have known so many things. And this is the first time I've earned my own salary, and it's all because of you, Sister Ranran. Now you're leaving, and we don't know when we'll meet again. Isn't it only natural for me to give you a gift? But I don't have much money, so I only bought a cheaper pen, so please don't despise me."

Su Ran sighed in her heart. It sounded easy to listen to Li Yun's words, but in this era, pens were rarely cheap. The cheapest one cost about thirty yuan, and you needed a ticket. She felt that this token of kindness was too heavy.

She wanted to refuse, but looking at Li Yun's expectant eyes, she couldn't say no. She forced a smile and said, "How could I dislike it? Don't worry about you laughing at me. I haven't used a fountain pen before, Xiaoyun. Now, thanks to you, I finally use a fountain pen! Thank you, Xiaoyun, I will definitely use it every day in the future."
