Chapter 51 People from the Art Troupe
The next day.
Chu Mingzhou went to the army early in the morning. When Lin Anan got up, there was no one around her, so there was no embarrassment.
Chu Minglan cooked breakfast, a simple sweet potato porridge with side dishes, but the three of them enjoyed it very much.
"Sister-in-law, I can't lie to you. That stewed food, wow, wow, wow, wow, it's guaranteed to be something you've never tasted before..."
“Is it really that delicious?”
"But...sister-in-law, the pig intestines are not tasty."
Lin Anan raised a finger and shook it, "That's because the cooking method is wrong. Wait until my sister-in-law stews it for you, and then you'll know what a delicious dish is!"
The two little guys were so greedy after hearing Lin Anan's description that they kept swallowing their saliva.
In the end, even Chu Mingyu refused to stay at home and insisted on going to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy vegetables.
"Brother Yu, it's very cold outside."
"I'm not afraid of the cold, really."
Chu Mingyu looked on eagerly, and was finally brought up.
The sun is shining brightly in the sky, it is a rare good day.
But it was winter now, and no matter how good the weather was, it was so cold that people shivered.
Lin Anan was holding one person on her left and one person on her right, and she walked to the supply and marketing cooperative much faster than usual.
Maybe because we arrived early, there were a lot of people gathered around the supply and marketing cooperative.
"Xiao Lan, Xiao Yu, follow me closely. We will finish this quickly and go home as soon as we finish shopping."
Chu Minglan nodded obediently, "Got it, sister-in-law, I will look after Brother Yu."
Chu Mingyu also patted his chest and assured: "Sister-in-law, I won't run around either. I'll be by your side. I'll do whatever you ask me to do."
"Okay, let's go in then."
As soon as I entered the supply and marketing cooperative, it was more lively inside than outside, with all kinds of noisy sounds intertwined, and there were so many people that it was crowded...
It’s the end of the year and happens to be the time when the supply and marketing cooperatives sell New Year’s goods, no wonder there are so many people!
Lin Anan looked around and went straight to the seasoning shelf.
"Sister-in-law, look, what is that!"
"Um?"
After taking only a few steps, Lin Anan was stopped by Chu Minglan. Looking in the direction where she pointed, she saw a small... TV?
Lin Anan was also really surprised when she saw the small TV. In that era, TV was a rare item and she didn't expect to see one in the supply and marketing cooperative.
There were quite a few people gathered there, watching and talking.
"Oh my, this really is a TV! I've only heard about it before, but now I see it with my own eyes."
"I heard that there are a lot of people pretending to be on TV, but I don't know what they look like..."
"I don't know about that, but this thing is very expensive, right? Ordinary people like us can't afford it."
"That's true. This one was booked by the cultural troupe."
Lin Anan narrowed her eyes and just watched the fun.
The TV was about 14 inches in size, with a small screen and a thick body. If it were put in modern times, it would be considered simple. But now, it is a high-tech product.
"Sister-in-law, what is this TV for? What can you watch on it? Ah~~"
Chu Minglan had just opened her mouth to ask a question out of curiosity when she was accidentally bumped into and her whole body fell forward due to inertia.
"Xiaolan."
Lin Anan quickly hugged the person, but she was too thin and her strength was not as strong as Chu Minglan, an eleven-year-old child...
Before the people around could react, Lin Anan fell straight back!
"careful!"
A figure suddenly rushed towards Lin Anan, put one hand on her back and held her arm with the other, and carried her back.
Lin Anan felt like her soul was about to be scared out of her body!
"Sister-in-law, sister."
Until Chu Mingyu stood in front of them with tears in his eyes.
There were also bursts of discussions around.
Lin Anan glanced sideways and saw a very handsome young man wearing a military uniform. He had a slender figure and a gentle temperament between his eyebrows, which gave people a good feeling.
"Comrade, are you all right?"
Lin Anan quickly steadied herself and took a step back. She nodded gratefully, "I'm fine, thanks to your timely help, thank you!" She turned around and checked on the two little ones, "Xiaolan, are you okay?"
Chu Minglan patted her chest and said with lingering fear: "Sister-in-law, I'm fine. I was scared to death just now. If you hadn't held me, I would have fallen badly. Fortunately, this big brother helped me."
Lin Anan patted the two little guys' heads and comforted them, then looked at the young man and thanked him again: "Thank you so much."
The young man waved his hands and was about to say it was okay, but was interrupted by a clear voice, "Instructor!"
A group of people in military uniforms entered the supply and marketing cooperative, both men and women, all young and beautiful.
Someone from the art troupe?
As soon as this thought came to Lin Anan's mind, it was confirmed by the people who were discussing it around her.
This group of people are from the art troupe, and they are here to pick up the TV.
The young man heard the shout, turned to look at the person who came, frowned slightly, and seemed a little helpless to be interrupted. But he still waved at them to indicate that he heard them.
A group of people quickly gathered around, and one of them, a girl with pigtails, spoke first, "Instructor, did something happen over here?"
The young man looked at the girl with pigtails and said calmly, "It's nothing serious. This comrade and her sister were almost knocked down by someone, so I just pulled them aside to avoid an accident."
The girl with pigtails snorted softly after hearing this and said, "Oh, so that's the case? That's quite thrilling." But her expression showed some disapproval. She looked Lin Anan up and down with a hint of disgust.
Seeing her attitude, Lin Anan felt a little uncomfortable, but she didn't want to cause any more trouble, so she just smiled politely and nodded slightly to the young man, "Thank you very much, then... we'll leave first." After saying that, she prepared to leave with Chu Minglan and Chu Mingyu.
"There are so many people in this supply and marketing cooperative, you have to be careful and don't fall again. Then you don't have to trouble others to help you!" There was a hint of sarcasm in the girl's words.
Chu Minglan frowned angrily after hearing this, "Sister, how can you say that? We didn't do it on purpose. It was just an accident. And this big brother was kind enough to help us. We are very grateful. It's not right for you to say that."
Lin Anan quickly grabbed Chu Minglan and pushed her behind her, "Xiaolan, it's okay, your sister-in-law is here!"
Seeing this, the young man's face darkened, and he criticized the girl seriously: "Su Yao, what are you talking about? When we go out, we should help each other. How can you be so sarcastic? Apologize to this comrade quickly."
When the girl called Su Yao heard this, her eyes widened and she said in a very aggrieved tone, "Instructor, I... I didn't mean anything else. I just wanted to give you a kind reminder. Why do you want me to apologize?"
