Rebirth Era: After the Beautiful Sister-in-law Refuses to Open Business

Song Lan smiled, looked at Wang Ping, and said, "Tomorrow is the New Year. I wish you a happy Spring Festival in advance. May you always smile!"

"Thank you! I also wish you a happy Chinese New Year in advance and all the best!"

Wang Ping smiled, without a trace of depression between her brows.

After chatting and laughing for a while, the two walked side by side and then separated. Song Lan was about to turn to another road when she heard Fu Jinheng's voice from behind: "Doctor Song!"

"Doctor Fu."

Holding the handlebars, Song Lan turned around and saw Fu Jinheng riding over. With a smile on his face, he rode to Song Lan's side, squeezed the brake, got off the bike, and asked, "Are you going back to Beijing for the New Year or staying here for the New Year?"

"Go back to the capital city."

As Song Lan responded, she pushed her bicycle and turned with Fu Jinheng onto another road, which led to the old residential area for employees of the machinery factory and also to the new residential area for employees of the machinery factory.

To put it simply, the two family quarters are located on the left and right sides of the road and on the same horizontal line.

Song Lan asked: "What about you?"

Fu Jinheng: "I will also go back to Beijing to celebrate the New Year. I will go back to my residence and pack up before leaving."

Song Lan: "Then I wish you a happy new year in advance!"

Hearing this, Fu Jinheng said "thank you", and then wished Song Lan a happy new year, and asked Song Lan what time she would leave in the afternoon.

"After lunch, I will leave with Comrade Qin and my sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law."

Hearing Song Lan say this, Fu Jinheng felt a little disappointed, but his handsome face did not show it at all.

"By train?"

"That was originally the plan, but Comrade Qin came home yesterday and said he would drive us."

"If you drive, you should pay more attention to safety on the road."

"Yes, thank you!"

The two chatted intermittently and soon arrived at the gate of the family quarters where they lived. Song Lan stopped and said, "See you after the holiday."

"Okay, see you after the holidays." Fu Jinheng nodded with a slight smile on his face. Just as Song Lan was pushing her bicycle towards the gate of the old family quarters, he asked, "Which day are you on duty?"

Song Lan turned around: "Third grade."

Fu Jinheng: "I'm the same as you. After the first day of the new year, I have to return here at the latest in the afternoon of the second day of the new year."

"Although the time I spend with my family is short, at least I can sit together and have a reunion dinner when I go back."

Song Lan said with a smile.

"Yes, it's rare to get together throughout the year. Having a reunion dinner is a very happy thing. We should cherish it."

Fu Jinheng said this, but in fact, he did not want to go back to Beijing to celebrate the New Year at his stepfather's house. However, his mother called him repeatedly in the past two days, urging him to rush back before New Year's Eve so that he could celebrate the birthday of the old man of the Wang family, his stepfather's father, on the second day of the New Year.

After thinking it over, he decided to go back to Beijing.

Anyway, the old man was pretty good to him, except for his stepfather, who, for many years, had not been very close to him, had never been very nice to him.

But this time when he returned to Beijing, he could not go to the forest farm to spend the New Year with his second uncle, which undoubtedly made Fu Jinheng feel regretful.

It seems that before leaving for Beijing, I have to call the forest farm and tell my second uncle that he will spend the first weekend after the holiday with me to celebrate the New Year.

By then, it has not yet passed the tenth day, but it is still considered the Spring Festival.

-

Qin Boyan prepared lunch, and Qin Yaxin assisted him. The brother and sister made stewed hemp food.

Everyone in the family, young and old, sat together for dinner. Qin Yaqing took care of washing the dishes, while Song Lan quickly packed the New Year's goods to be taken home to Beijing. The brothers Qin Yanzheng and Qin Boyan loaded the packages packed by Song Lan into the car.

The two little ones were looked after by Qin Yaxin and sat obediently in the living room reading picture books.

At about 1:30 in the afternoon, Song Lan closed the doors and windows of the house, locked the gate, got into the jeep, and looked at Qin Yanzheng: "Let's go."

Qin Yanzheng sat in the driver's seat, and the passenger seat was reserved by Qin Yaqing and others for Song Lan, the eldest sister-in-law. However, considering that there were many people squeezed in the back seat and Qin Boyan had a bigger frame, Qin Boyan finally sat in the passenger seat.

Song Lan held the little girl in her arms, the cute baby Xiaowu was held by Qin Yaqing, and Qin Yaxin sat in the middle. After the three adults and two children were safely seated, Qin Yanzheng started the car and drove towards the gate of the family area in a flash.

The road back to Beijing was smooth and unobstructed. Around 6:30, the car drove into the steel plant's villa area.

Father Qin was very happy. Seeing his children and daughter-in-law Song Lan arrive home safely, the smile on his face never disappeared.

"I have prepared New Year's goods for my family. Why did you come all the way back to bring these?"

Seeing Qin Yanzheng and Qin Boyan taking candies, peanuts, melon seeds, bacon and other dry goods out of the car, Qin's father said, "It would be better if you leave them over there and eat them by yourselves..."

After listening to what Father Qin said, Song Lan smiled and said, "It was the car that did the work, we didn't do anything."

"Is this what I meant by saying so much?"

Father Qin looked helpless: "I mean, we have everything we need at home. You can leave those things over there and eat them by yourselves. Forget it. Remember to take them with you when you leave. Don't leave them here and let them go bad."

After a short pause, he continued, "I have also bought the vegetables and meat, and they are all in the kitchen."

Song Lan: "I'll go take a look and prepare the New Year's Eve dinner for us."

Father Qin: "Take a rest, let Yaqing and the others do the work."

"Listen to our dad. Just sit on the sofa and take a rest. I'll leave the kitchen to my elder sister and the others."

Qin Yanzheng agreed with what his father said.

"I'm not tired. You're the one who's really tired after driving for several hours. You stay in the living room and talk to Dad. My older sister and I will go to the kitchen. More people means more strength, and we can serve the New Year's Eve dinner earlier."

Having said that, Song Lan walked towards the kitchen.

The factory has an aunt who is responsible for cooking and cleaning for Qin's father every day, but today is New Year's Eve, so the aunt went back to her home at noon and was busy preparing for the New Year.

Father Qin took a day off in the afternoon. Based on the cleaning done by his aunt early in the morning, he cleaned the house carefully inside and outside again, and wiped the glass on the doors and windows again. It can be said that the house is now very clean and tidy, and there is no need for Song Lan and others to clean it up.

"Dad, did you miss me?"

The cute kid Xiaowu sat next to Qin's father and asked with his head tilted eagerly.

"you still need to ask?"

Patting his youngest son's head, Father Qin's eyes were full of love. He smiled softly and said, "Dad misses you and Xiaoliu very much. Of course, Dad also misses your brothers and sisters."

Little girl Qin Yaxuan blinked her big smiling eyes and said in a soft voice, "Xiaoliu misses his dad too!" She was sitting on the other side of Qin's father.

"Dad knows."

Father Qin also touched the little girl's head. To be honest, looking at the two lively and sensible children, he was grateful to Song Lan, his daughter-in-law, for her efforts from the bottom of his heart. He felt that it was the right thing for his eldest son Qin Yanzheng to marry Song Lan as his wife.

"Dad, I'll let you..."

Qin Yanzheng suddenly spoke, but before he could finish his words, he heard his old father say, "Everything has been arranged. Why don't you go upstairs and take a look?"

"Thanks dad!"

Meeting his father's smiling gaze, Qin Yanzheng's face became hot and he looked uncomfortable. He clenched his fists and coughed twice, then asked, "Did Zheng Haiyang deliver the things I asked him to buy to our house?"
