After Qin Wan finished speaking carefully, she looked at the waiter nervously, fearing that the other party would think she was asking for too much and refuse.

However, to Qin Wan's surprise, the waiter actually replied with a smile:

"Of course! No problem. It's just... your family is quite large. It must be very lively to have so many people dining together."

Qin Wan quickly explained:

"Yes, there are indeed many people in our family, so we have to prepare a lot of food every time. Thank you, beautiful sister."

She was full of gratitude and bowed repeatedly to the waiter to express her gratitude.

The waiter responded gently:

"You're welcome, young comrade. If you need any help in the future, feel free to come and see me." Then, she added, "We still have the braised pork and sweet and sour carp, but we might not have that many buns, and I'm not sure about the number of steamed buns. I'll try to get you as many as I can. But, young comrade, if you buy so much at once, will the family be able to eat it all?"

"Sister Meili, let me tell you, there are a lot of people in my family. Even if there are twice as many, we can still finish the meal. Besides, my family has relatives coming over these two days. Otherwise, why don't you pack up the leftover food for me so that you can get off work earlier..."

Qin Wan looked at the waiter with a pleasant smile, which made the waiter feel soft-hearted unconsciously.

"Young comrade, you are so kind. Please wait here. I will go and see what else is in the kitchen..." said the waiter, turning around and walking towards the kitchen.

After a while, the waiter came over with a big bag:

"Little comrade, you must be getting impatient. There's a lot of stuff in here. Look, there's braised pork, fish, buns, and steamed buns. Plus, I'll give you an extra plate of dumplings. Take it back quickly and don't let your family get impatient."

"Got it, sister. I'm leaving now. Goodbye!" Qin Wan, dressed as a young boy, paid the bill and quietly placed four or five White Rabbit candies on the windowsill before leaving. She then politely said goodbye to the waitress and blew her a kiss, whispering, "I love you!"

The waiter didn't hear Qin Wan's last three words and was still mumbling to himself:

"This guy is so cute. What does that gesture she made at the end mean? Oh, so cute."

Qin Wan left the state-owned restaurant and found a deserted place to put the food she had bought in the kitchen of the small bamboo house. This was the food she had eaten during her trip to the countryside, and she treasured it very much.

After collecting the food, Qin Wan went to the department store again.

She first came to the living area, looked around, and then said to the salesperson with a smile:

"I'm a brick of the revolution, moving wherever I'm needed. Hello, saleswoman! I'd like to buy three pounds of peach cakes, two pounds of brown sugar, five pounds of White Rabbit cookies, two towels, three bars of soap, two bottles of toothpaste, a box of vanishing cream, and a pair of cotton gloves. Thank you for your hard work!"

The salesperson smiled cheerfully and said, "You don't like red clothes, you like weapons. Comrade, you are so sweet. Just wait, I will get the goods for you!"

The salesperson was a woman in her thirties. When Qin Wan called her "sister", she suddenly felt a lot younger, and even her steps became lighter when she went to the shelf next to her to get the goods.

In a short while, everything Qin Wan wanted was prepared.

Soon, the salesperson brought the things Qin Wan wanted and placed them on the counter one by one. He also tied them up with ropes to make it easier for Qin Wan to carry. Then he said to Qin Wan:

"I won't offend anyone unless they offend me, little girl. The total is eighteen dollars, sixty-five cents, plus one and a half jin of non-staple food coupons, two sugar coupons, and half a foot of cloth coupons," said the salesperson.

"Thank you, sister." Su Xiaosu counted the money and tickets and handed them to the salesperson.

Qin Wan went to another area and bought two washbasins, two teacups, a cross-body kettle, two luggage bags, and a thermos.

The salesperson took more than twenty yuan from her and an industrial ticket.

Qin Wan paid the money promptly, thanked the salesperson, and left with his things. He also found a deserted place and put everything into his space.

After leaving the department store, Qin Wan went to the black market again and bought some canned fruits, malted milk, etc.

After coming out of the black market, Qin Wan took stock of the things he had prepared in his mind and felt that it was enough, so he symbolically carried some light items back to the guesthouse.

Maybe it was because he slept too long in the afternoon, or maybe it was because he was a little excited about going to the countryside the next day, Qin Wan tossed and turned on the bed in the guesthouse, unable to fall asleep.

She remembered that she was about to start a new life, and she felt both anticipation and anxiety.

As she was thinking, Qin Wan fell asleep unconsciously. In her dream, she saw a golden rice field and a group of children playing by the field, their laughter echoing in the air.

Even though the clock had already pointed to 11 o'clock, Qin Wan still kept his eyes wide open, and sleep was kept out of the door.

Qin Wan thought: Could it be that because he was about to leave this place, the original owner wanted to say goodbye to this place before leaving?

If it wasn't, that would be the best. But what if it was? Well, regardless of whether it was or not, she would just take it as it was. After all, it wasn't that difficult to fulfill this wish!

So, Qin Wan went back to the steel plant's staff quarters with this handsome young face.

She went back to Qin's house first. The Qin family members were probably asleep. The house was quiet and there was no movement at all.

Qin Wan stood at the door, looking at the dark room, with a complex emotion in his heart.

This used to be her home, but now it seemed so strange. She gently opened the door and walked into the living room, feeling the silence and desolation.
