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 353 looks like he's aged ten years!

"I hope so."

Zhang Yunxi thought about it for a moment, following the other person's line of thought, and felt that it made sense.

So we put that topic aside.

After chatting for a while, I said goodbye and left.

After she left.

The three of them couldn't help but look at each other and laugh.

"I never expected that Uncle Li would introduce Qian Luyuan to her."

Peng Shiyu couldn't help but smile. "To be honest, the two of them are quite compatible, but I don't know if they can end up together."

“Qian Luyuan is good-looking, and he’s not from an ordinary family.”

Yang Shujue's tone carried a hint of envy, "Now he works in the Armed Forces Department, and his conditions in all aspects are very good. No wonder Zhang Yunxi's family is so interested."

"Qian Luyuan's conditions are indeed quite good."

Lin Jingyu nodded slightly and said, "The most important thing is that Qian Luyuan's home is not here. Zhang Yunxi won't have to deal with the mother-in-law relationship after marrying into the family, just like Xiuying, which is great."

"She knew in her heart that Jingtian would not like her, and there was no point in continuing to drag it out."

Peng Shiyu added, "Besides, she's not young anymore, and her family will definitely urge her to get married and find her a partner."

Most importantly, the educated youth was a good person with good conditions; if she missed out on such opportunities, she might not be able to find a better family later.

“Everyone has their own choices.”

Lin Jingyu said softly, "Everyone's path is different, including ours."

Nobody can predict the future, don't you think?

Both of them nodded upon hearing this.

A few days passed in a flash

I thought of my grandparents still living in the countryside.

Lin Jingyu decided to return to Shuibu Village.

Peng Shiyu stayed in the county town to accompany her mother, and she didn't go back until the start of the school term.

Yang Shujue liked being in the village, so she chose to go back with them.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Peng and Peng Qibo were also among the people in the same industry.

They also stayed in Shuibu Village for a period of time.

Return to the village.

Grandpa Peng and his grandson moved into the apartment next to Lin Jingyu's.

Peng Shiyu's courtyard is just right for the two of them to live in.

Because the two were unfamiliar with the kitchen.

At Grandpa Zhang's suggestion, the two families ate together.

With the company of several old friends, Grandpa Peng completely neglected his grandson.

"We don't have much firewood left."

Peng Qibo was inspecting the work when he said, "I'm injured right now and it's inconvenient for me to chop firewood. I'll ask Liu Xiuying to have the villagers chop firewood and bring it over."

There's only a little coal left; I'll have Yue Chun send over a truckload later.

“When my older cousin came over last time, I told him that I would send him a truckload of coal.”

Lin Jingyu was busy with her work when she replied, "You don't need to look for Brother Le Chun for now. If my cousin can't get coal from him, then it's not too late to look for Brother Guang Chun."

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

Peng Qibo smiled and walked over to the bamboo chair next to him and sat down.

While helping to shell peanuts, he asked, "Are we going to plant sweet potatoes, potatoes, peanuts, soybeans, and other things again?"

"It's time to plant them."

While busy, Lin Jingyu replied, "Our families have quite a lot of private plots combined, which is just enough to grow these things. The things grown in our private plots are enough for all of us to eat."

"Are you able to manage?"

Peng Qibo frowned. "We should call Shiyu, Xiaonan, and Wenxi back to help. We can't just let them play around in the county town."

"Don't worry about Shiyu, she still needs to make clothes."

Lin Jingyu looked up at him and said, "Wenxi and Xiaonan can't stay in the county town. They'll definitely come back by the day after tomorrow at the latest. We can ask them for help then."

"There are still too few people."

Peng Qibo looked at the blazing sun and said, "Spend some money and ask people in the village who have free time to come and help. We can't let you all be busy in the fields all day long."

"Alright."

Lin Jingyu did not refuse. In the past, she would ask the girls in the village to come and help. "I will go to Xiuying later and ask her to find people to come and help with the work tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

Peng Qibo felt a pang of guilt. "Before, when I wasn't around, you had to support yourself. Now that I'm back, I can't help you much."

"I don't need your help."

Lin Jingyu smiled and said, "Just focus on recovering from your injury."

By the way, will Luo Pengfei come back?

Have you completed your mission?

Should I continue with the mission, or return to the army?

“I don’t know yet.”

Peng Qibo's expression turned slightly somber. "The news from the army indicates that there is still a shortage of medicine, and many soldiers have lost their lives because of the lack of timely medical treatment."

"Brother Le Chun and his team went to the movies, didn't they manage to buy any medicine at all?"

Lin Jingyu was a little incredulous.

After all, Russia will definitely be able to purchase some medicines.

As for how much you can buy, that depends on your own abilities.

"We bought some, but it's still a drop in the bucket."

Peng Qibo didn't hide anything from her, "Your older cousin is also acquiring drugs, but he hasn't gotten a lot. I've already sent a batch over."

The quantity wasn't large, but we all did our best.

“Do your best.”

Lin Jingyu didn't look at him, but kept her head down and continued peeling peanuts. She then asked, "Did you clean up all the spies and Japanese devils in Hong Province this time?"

"almost."

Peng Qibo responded, "There should still be some who slipped through the net, but it doesn't matter, they won't cause any trouble for the time being."

At least Hong Kong Province should be safer than other provinces, so you can rest assured.

"If you don't return to the army, won't you have to be transferred out of Hong Province?"
