Chapter 122: Pack Up and Get Out
"Auntie?" Lin Qing walked up to the old lady, who looked surprised.
The old lady was the aunt who was taking care of her grandson at the bus station that day.
I came here specifically to see Lin Qing.
People who pick ginseng are a bit superstitious. After Aunt Ye brought her grandson home that day, she told the old man about this.
The old man asked the master he had been working with for many years to do a calculation. The master said on the spot: Your family has met a noble person, otherwise you might have lost your grandson.
The master then said a lot of mysterious things.
Hearing this, Uncle Ye frowned and asked the master to say a few words in human terms.
The master glared at Grandpa Ye and said, "Your grandson saved his life for nothing, and a bag of ginseng seeds is the price for it?"
Grandpa Ye was shocked: "Is my grandson still in danger?"
The little grandson was weak at the beginning, so after consulting a master, he changed his name to Xiaoshuan. It was said that if too many people called him that, the child might be tied down.
Therefore, Grandpa Ye is extremely cautious about his grandson's affairs.
"That's not certain. I can't tell your grandson's fate, but I suggest you build a good relationship with the person who saved your grandson. It's best to visit him more often."
"Also, your family should do more good deeds, and you will be blessed. Stay away from those who have bad tempers, so as not to be affected by bad auras."
"You are now in the sunshine, and you are always warm. If you stand in the rain, you will only get soaked and suffer disasters."
Uncle Ye returned home with a heavy heart. He learned from Aunt Ye what the master said, and Aunt Ye's heart was also hesitant.
"I just remember that the girl seemed to be still in school, but I don't remember which school. If we really want to find her, we have to look for her one by one."
It is easier said than done.
It was not until Aunt Ye saw Lin Qing in the newspaper that she was so happy that she could not express it in words. Her little Shuanzi was indeed lucky enough to have a noble relationship with someone.
Then, Aunt Ye came over based on the only information in the newspaper.
It was autumn and a bit cold outside. Lin Qing couldn't keep Aunt Ye outside all the time, so she simply took her to the cafeteria.
The cafeteria in the university is actually quite suitable for chatting.
There are seats and tables, and no one is chasing us away.
How nice.
Coming to the cafeteria was exactly what Aunt Ye wanted. The two of them sat down and Aunt Ye took out an iron lunch box from her cloth bag.
Open it with a smile.
A lunch box full of dumplings.
It should have been served right out of the pot, still warm.
The old lady took out the chopsticks wrapped in a handkerchief and handed them to Lin Qing.
"My girl, these are dumplings stuffed with pork and green onions that I made. I brought them here especially for you to try."
Lin Qing couldn't figure out what Auntie Ye was here for, so she took the chopsticks with a smile.
"Auntie, saving your grandson is a simple matter. Besides, you also gave me a bag of ginseng seeds, so you don't need to send me anything else."
Auntie Ye didn't respond, but just watched Lin Qing eat with a smile. After Lin Qing tasted a few dumplings, she asked, "How is it? Does it taste good?"
Lin Qing nodded.
Aunt Ye said again: "The ginseng seeds are just for you to play with. They are not worth much. Did you plant them?"
Not only have they been planted, they have already grown a crop.
Lin Qing was still thinking that Aunt Ye was really generous and gave her the ginseng seeds just for fun.
Just like what people in later generations said, my family used ginseng for firewood...
"I planted it in a flowerpot at my sister's house. I don't know if it will survive."
"It's okay. If you don't want to live, Auntie will give you some more."
This really sounded like a joke. Lin Qing blinked and asked tentatively: "Auntie Ye, are you here for something this time?"
"Alas." Aunt Ye did not hide it from Lin Qing and briefly told her about her grandson. Then she said a little embarrassedly, "Will we disturb you by doing this?"
Lin Qing understood that what Aunt Ye meant was that the two families should treat each other as relatives and good friends.
Make good connections by interacting with each other.
She was particular about these things and didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Fortunately, the Lin family didn't have many relatives or friends here.
It's good to have a good relationship with someone and hang out more often.
"Okay, Auntie, just give me your address and I'll come visit you when I don't have classes."
"That's great." Aunt Ye smiled happily.
Lin Qing ate a whole box of dumplings stuffed with pork and green onions, which made her stomach full.
Seeing Lin Qing finish her meal, Aunt Ye was happy. In the meantime, she heard that Lin Qing's eldest sister and her family were also there, and she specifically asked for their address. She was serious about establishing good relations between the two families.
Lin Qing sent Aunt Ye to the bus before taking the bus to her eldest sister's house.
At this moment, Mrs. Xu was making bean buns with a numb face.
I got up early in the morning and went to my eldest sister's kitchen, lit the stove, and started cooking.
I've never seen anyone who eats so well.
It’s not a festival, why eat bean buns!
The troublesome part of making bean curd is turning the beans into bean paste.
Aunt Lin was also pounding beans with a numb face.
She sighed, Lin Sanya was really troublesome, even the neighbors were not spared. She was also wondering why Mrs. Xu was so easy to be controlled.
Isn't she a well-known hot-tempered person?
Is this spicy?
Aunt Lin was pounding beans while muttering to herself, and then she thought, hey, what is she doing...
Of course, it’s making red bean paste buns.
When Lin Qing arrived, the red bean paste buns had just come out of the pot. Mrs. Xu and Aunt Lin each held a freshly cooked red bean paste bun and ate it.
Lin Qing saw it.
Mrs. Xu had been busy for most of the day, so what was wrong with eating her two bean paste buns? She even wanted to take a few back for her son and husband to try.
Big Fat and Little Fat were looking forward to the red bean paste buns coming out of the pot at noon, and they were reluctant to leave when they went to school in the afternoon.
Xiaopang was smarter. He pretended to have a stomachache and didn't want to go to school. Mrs. Xu knew what was going on after just one look.
"Stomachache? That's it. You can't eat bean buns when you have a stomachache. You have to starve for a day to see if you have eaten something that upset your stomach."
Xiaopang immediately stopped feeling pain and went to school quickly.
Lin Ergu felt a little guilty while eating, but after thinking about it, she realized that she had also put in a lot of effort, so why should she feel guilty? Well, she just ignored her.
You can't snatch it from your hands.
Lin Qing was not going to do such a thing just for a piece of bean bun. She just smiled and broke off a small piece from her second aunt to taste it.
Mm~ Not bad, restaurant style.
Aunt Lin: "......"
Mrs. Xu is really good at making pasta.
Mrs. Xu smiled proudly: "That's nothing. During the Chinese New Year, every household will make sticky rice dumplings with red bean filling. That's really delicious."
"There are sticky rice and glutinous rice, which are sticky, sweet and delicious. I heard that the landlords in the past did not dip them in sugar at all, but only in lard. Oh, when you take a bite, it smells so good..."
I can't help swallowing just thinking about it.
Mrs. Xu was immersed in lard and almost dizzy from the fragrance.
Lin Qing and Lin Ergu were a little confused.
Unimaginable.
Can it taste good if dipped in lard?
But think about it, lard does smell good.
but……
After eating the bean buns, Aunt Lin had to pack up and go back home.
Lin Qing picked up a few white and plump bean buns and wrapped them up, then said to her second aunt, "Aunt, please bring this back to my parents for me, so that they can also taste the bean buns. You are not allowed to eat them secretly."
"Cuihua is in my hands. When I go back at the end of the year, I will ask my mother for the amount."
Aunt Lin's breath was stuck in her chest...
Mrs. Xu chuckled: "Second Aunt, why are you so honest?"
