Eating Melons and Watching the Show in a Chronicles Novel

As a member of the working class, Lin Jingyu, a cargo registrar at a port, transmigrated to the early 1970s during her lunch break.

She unexpectedly discovered that she had entered a chronicl...

Chapter 251 Why are you arresting me?

"Minister Li, please stop joking."

Wen Lechun joked, "Could it be that you're willing to give up this ministerial position and run off to work in the sea with me?"

Haha~

Li Anning laughed heartily, "Why not? As long as Young Master Wen agrees to take me in, I'll go with you right away."

Stop trying to make me happy.

Wen Lechun rolled her eyes without any politeness, "Your good days are yet to come, Minister Li. Maybe one day I'll have to rely on you, Minister Li, to loosen your grip so I can make a living."

"Young Master Wen is joking."

Li Anning dared not take these words seriously.

He knew very well what kind of family the Wen family was, not to mention that he hung out with the two young masters of the Peng and Luo families.

To put it bluntly, just look at these young masters working together...

Even in the capital, there's no one who can afford to offend him.

They sat down together.

Lu Qingyang poured tea and water for the two of them.

Seeing his expression, Li Anning sighed inwardly.

A smile returned to his face. "Qingyang, are you planning to move the family to the provincial capital?"

"No, I'm not moving."

Lu Qingyang smiled and shook his head, "My wife and children need to stay at home and take care of my uncles and aunts."

I travel with the convoy all day long, while the mother and son live their own lives even after they go to the provincial capital.

"Then it's more comfortable to live in the county town."

"That's true."

Li Anning looked at him thoughtfully and asked, "Are you planning to drive a sports car?"

"Minister Li, you may not know this, but Brother Lu wants to travel with my convoy."

Wen Lechun smiled and took over the conversation, "It just so happens that my team needs people, and he's interested in trying his luck, so we thought we could look after each other."

"Qingyang is really lucky."

Li Anning smiled and sighed, saying frankly, "I was planning to ask Qingyang to come out of seclusion and help me find some supplies, but it seems that this time it won't be possible."

"Minister Li also needs supplies?"

Wen Lechun took the initiative to pick up the conversation, her tone tinged with curiosity, "I wonder what Minister Li needs the resources for? No matter what your armed forces department is like, it won't suffer from a lack of food and clothing, so why do you have to worry about this?"

"Young Master Wen, you flatter me."

Minister Li responded with a smile, "Our brothers are also having a hard time, especially in the last two years when the country has become increasingly short of supplies, and our ministry has also been tightening its belt to make ends meet."

We also hope to find a way to change our lives. And our old leader, whom Wen Shao has probably met, isn't having an easy time either.

Who was your former boss?

"Mr. Qin."

Minister Li smiled and said, "Young Master Wen should know him, as well as Young Master Peng and Young Master Luo. They should be very familiar with Elder Qin."

"So, Mr. Qin was your former boss."

Wen Lechun was indeed serious about Elder Qin, and his voice carried a hint of surprise, "I didn't expect you to be with Elder Qin. How come I've never seen you before?"

“I used to be Old Qin’s bodyguard.”

Minister Li explained, "Three years ago, I was transferred to civilian work under Qin Lao's arrangement and came to the Armed Forces Department of Chunnan County."

"I see."

Wen Lechun nodded, "We're practically family here. I'll have to discuss the supplies you want with Brother Qibo and the others when I get back, and then we'll see how to arrange it."

If possible, we can cooperate.

As for how to collaborate, we can discuss that next time, how about it?

"no problem."

Minister Li readily agreed.

This is what he has been longing for.

The three of them didn't mention the matter again.

They started rambling on about all sorts of random topics.

In any case, the dinner table is the easiest place to build friendships.

By the time the party ended, the three of them had already started calling each other brothers, acting like close buddies.

Lu Qingyang did not go home; he followed Wen Lechun back to the guesthouse.

The two sat down.

"What do you think?"

Wen Lechun looked at him with a smile, "It seems that Minister Li didn't mean any harm tonight. Why were you so scared that you almost ran away overnight?"

"Le Chun, you are unaware of something."

Lu Qingyang smiled wryly, "Minister Li's attitude tonight is completely different from his usual attitude, okay?"

If he hadn't insisted on my help in every way, I wouldn't have been scared away.

"Well, Old Qin is a guy..."

Wen Lechun stroked his chin. "Whether or not to cooperate, I really can't decide. I'll ask Brother Qibo first."

In any case, Li Anning won't make things difficult for you anymore, so you can rest assured.

"I know."

Lu Qingyang nodded and looked at the person in front of him, "Le Chun, do you think Minister Li is really only cooperating with us for supplies?"

"I don't know either."

Wen Lechun seemed to be thinking, "From what you're saying, he used to act like he couldn't live without you, and he was somewhat coercing you into joining him."

Based on the information he has revealed so far, this situation is unlikely to occur.

This matter still needs further investigation; we'll leave the decision to Qibo later.

Lu Qingyang responded, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

"Don't worry, at least he won't ask you to join him now."

Wen Lechun smiled and said, "You should stay home and spend time with your wife and children for about a month, then come to Hongcheng to find us."

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the truck and team should all be here.

The two talked for a while longer.

Lu Qingyang then bid him farewell and returned home.

Rest for about an hour.

Once Wen Lechun had recovered his energy and strength, he called the driver.

The two arrived at a flat-roofed house next to the station.

He indeed found a batch of supplies there, which made him beam with joy.
