If I go back now, will I have to say goodbye to everyone and everything here?

But when he thought of his mother and siblings who were waiting for his return far away in Beijing, Shi Yan closed his eyes and suppressed his fluctuating emotions.

When he opened his eyes again, a hint of determination flashed in them, and he clearly heard himself assuring himself into the microphone:

"Mom, don't worry, I'll be back soon!"

“…”

Until he hung up the phone, Shi Yan felt as if something was blocking his chest and he felt a little depressed.

Lin Ran didn't notice that Shi Yan was not right. At this moment, she was staring at the phone in shock.

To her, this was a new thing even more magical than a car.

It's small, but it can connect people thousands of miles apart.

If she had someone to fight with, she would really want to give it a try.

After Shi Yan finally calmed down and checked the package, he called Lin Ran away, who was still thinking about making a phone call.

The next step was to go to the bank. Lin Ran took out a gold bracelet and handed it to Shi Yan.

Shi Yan weighed the amount and breathed a sigh of relief. Together with the money his mother had just sent, it should be about the same.

He asked Lin Ran and his sister to wait outside, and he went in with the gold bracelet.

Shi Yan walked around the bank and asked a few questions in a pretentious manner before taking out all the money he had on him.

A total of three hundred and thirty yuan, plus five catties of meat coupons, twenty catties of grain coupons, and three catties of sugar coupons.

He thought about it and took out ten yuan, ten kilograms of food coupons and one kilogram of sugar coupons. Together with the sweet potatoes distributed by the educated youth, this amount should be enough for his food for a month.

After dividing the money, Shi Yan came out with the bills to find Lin Ran and the others.

He handed the banknote to Lin Ran and explained:

"I figured you wouldn't be able to buy food even if you had money, so when I saw someone exchanging coupons for money, I gave you some without permission. If you don't want it, I'll keep it for myself."

"How could that be? I can't thank you enough! It just so happens that we don't have any money to eat."

Lin Ran was speaking from the heart. With these tickets, she could bring back more food and meat.

Lin Laosan was even more excited and said:

"That's right, with these food coupons and meat coupons we can go to the state-owned restaurant and have a feast!"

He had a beautiful idea. If he could have a good meal at a state-owned restaurant, it would be worth it even if he got beaten up when he got back!

But soon Lin Ran found something wrong.

Is this too much money?

It must have cost quite a bit of money to exchange so many tickets, but there are still three hundred and twenty left?

She looked at Shi Yan with some confusion.

Just as he was about to ask, Shi Yan spoke first.

"What? Did I change too little money?"

"No, no, it's not that the money is less, but..."

Before Lin Ran could finish her words, Shi Yan interrupted her. He pretended to be joking:

"Anyway, I only exchanged this much. This is the money exchanged by the bank. I don't care if it's more or less."

Lin Ran wanted to explain, but unexpectedly, Lin Lao San patted his chest and promised solemnly:

"Little sister, don't worry. Brother Yan is such a great man! How could he possibly owe you money?"

After saying that, he apologized to Shi Yan.

"I'm sorry, Brother Yan, my sister is just so petty, please don't take it to heart."

"Third brother, don't you want to eat lunch?"

After being interrupted by Lin Lao San, Lin Ran didn't continue to dwell on this issue.

They thought that maybe the price of gold has gone up recently. They didn't have much friendship with Shi Yan, so it was impossible for him to secretly give them money for no reason, right?

In the end, the topic ended with the brother and sister's daily bickering.

The result was naturally that Lin Lao San tearfully agreed to a series of treaties that would have cost him his brotherly power just for the sake of a big lunch.

Seeing that it was almost noon, Lin Ran suggested going to eat first and then going to the department store.

Lin Laosan nodded in agreement quickly.

The three of them arrived at the state-owned restaurant and saw Cao Qingyuan, He Xiaoyue and others had already started eating.

Cao Qingyuan smiled and reminded them:

"Are you guys coming to eat too? Hurry up and order! We have salted duck available today. If you're late, it will be gone."

When Lin Laosan heard this, he immediately became anxious and hurriedly urged Lin Ran.

"Little sister, we have to hurry up. I haven't even tried salted duck yet."

His saliva was almost flowing out as he spoke.

This look caused the pink-dressed girl sitting at the next table to look at him with disdain.

"What a country bumpkin! He's never even had salted duck!"

When Lin Laosan heard this, his face turned red. Just when he was about to settle the score with the other party, he realized that the person who spoke was a girl of about fourteen or fifteen years old, and he immediately lost his temper.

Why is he angry with a child!

But the other party obviously didn't think so. Seeing Lin Lao San staring at him, he immediately shouted:

"What are you looking at! Don't look at me with your dog eyes!"

This really pissed off Lin Lao San, but he didn't bother the little girl in the end. Instead, he looked at the beautiful woman sitting opposite the girl.

She is probably in her thirties and should be the little girl's mother.

"Comrade, your daughter speaks so harshly. As an elder, don't you know how to manage her?"

Now it was the beautiful woman's turn to be unhappy.

"Who do you think you are? What qualifications do you have to talk about my daughter?"

Then she turned to the girl again.

"Baoqin, pay less attention to people like this in the future. Talking to them is so cheap!"

The girl named Baoqin was very well-behaved in front of the beautiful woman.

At this moment, she nodded obediently, looking harmless, as if the abusive words just now did not come from her mouth.

The mother and daughter's unison made Lin Ran's face turn cold immediately.
