Chapter 56



After arriving at the commune, Song Yuchen did as he said. He agreed to go back in the afternoon and then found an excuse to leave.

Wen Nuan took Qi Nian Nian and went to the photo studio to retrieve the photos. The black and white photos showed their faces clearly printed on them.

By the way, this is Wen Nuan’s first time taking photos!

"Nuannuan, look at this photo, it's really well taken. Looking at it this way, we do look a bit alike!"

"Really? Let me see!"

Wen Nuan held the photo in her hand and took a closer look. As expected, although it was a simple black and white photo, the two of them standing together did look a bit similar.

Wen Nuan's eyes flickered, as if she had thought of something, but she returned to normal after a moment.

She didn't notice the heat in Qi Niannian's eyes even a little bit.

She remembered that when she was little, she went to her grandfather's house once and happened to hear her grandfather talking to her mother. It was then that she learned that she had an uncle.

My uncle's mother was two years old, but unfortunately she passed away during the war.

My grandparents never gave up looking for him, but I was three years old when my uncle passed away, so there has been no news from him since then.

The only thing that can prove my uncle's identity is that he also has a white jade safety lock on his body.

After so many years, no one can be sure whether the safety lock is still in my uncle's possession.

But now...

Wen Nuan looked at Qi Nian Nian beside her, maybe she had one more relative in this world.

She had never met the legendary uncle and didn't know what he was like.

But Wen Nuan thought that since he could raise Nian Nian to this level, he must be a very good person.

But no matter what, Wen Nuan didn't mean to bring up the matter. She was very young when her uncle passed away, so it was normal for her to not remember anything.

What's more, so many years have passed, my grandparents and mother are no longer here, and my uncle also has his own family and relatives.

Why should she go to such great lengths to do such unnecessary things?

Besides, these were just her guesses. What if it was a coincidence? It turned out that she and Nian Nian were somewhat similar. Before the matter was further confirmed, it would not be good to be too impulsive.

Anyway, she and Nian Nian get along very well, and they get along well as friends.

"What do you think? You're also stunned, right? If I grow my hair long, we'll look more alike, right?"

Wen Nuan came back to her senses and smiled at Bibi drawing.

"What does it matter if it looks like you or not? Your hairstyle is cute. Okay, didn't we say we were going to have dinner? Let's go. If we get late, there won't be any braised pork!"

"What are you waiting for? Let's go!"

Being pulled by Qi Nian Nian, Wen Nuan had to quicken her pace. It was dinner time and there were quite a lot of people in the state-owned hotel.

After all, there were so many brigades near the commune, and this was the only state-owned hotel in the commune.

"Nuannuan, I'll go order the food, you go find a seat, we'll go our separate ways!"

"Okay, then I'll let you pay for it this time, and I'll be waiting to eat!"

"Haha, then just wait. I promise to feed you well today!"

"Look at you!"

"Hey, you haven't told me what you want to eat yet!"

"I'm not picky about food, just order what you want. Not too much, just enough to eat!"

"That's fine!"

Qi Niannian stood at the window, looking around, and finally fixed her eyes on the small blackboard.

"Comrade, I want a portion of braised pork, a portion of three fresh vegetables, a plate of dried tofu with hot peppers, a bowl of carrot soup, two bowls of white rice, and a pound of dumplings."

"Okay, pay here, and come get the food when it's ready."

"Okay, thank you!"

After Qi Niannian paid the money, she turned around to look for Wen Nuan, and saw that Wen Nuan had already sat down in a window seat.

"We are really lucky that this is the only empty table!"

Wen Nuan saw Qi Niannian coming over and said with a smile.

"Really? That's not bad. It's cooler by the window. The weather is getting hotter day by day!"

"This is just the beginning, there's more to come, but the summer here should be cooler than in Kyoto."

"You said so too."

The two of them were holding cups of water, drinking water and chatting. Not long after, they heard the waiter shout:

"The braised pork, three fresh vegetables, and dried tofu with hot peppers are great!"

Qi Nian Nian stood up in an instant.

"I'll serve the food!"

"I'm with you!"

"No, no, just sit here. What if we both leave and our seats are taken?"

Wen Nuan turned her head and saw that many people had come in through the door, staring at the table inside.

"Then go ahead, I'll stay here!"

Qi Nian Nian nodded and ran to the window to serve the dishes.

At this time, the hotel's chef was still very honest. The portions were very generous, and Qi Niannian had to make three trips to bring out all the food.

Looking at the table full of food, Wen Nuan couldn't help but frown.

"Why did you order so much? Can you finish it? Don't waste it now!"

"What are you afraid of? If you can't finish the food, we can just play. I even brought a lunch box with me!"

"Oh, you are quite foresighted!"

"That's right, don't you see who I am?"

"Look at your cocky look, okay, eat quickly, or the meat will get cold and won't taste good!"

"What are you waiting for? Let's get started!"

Qi Niannian picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in her mouth. Her face was full of satisfaction. She squinted her eyes and ate happily.

Infected by her, Wen Nuan also had a great appetite, and after a while, two-thirds of the dishes on the table were gone.

Except for the untouched dumplings, half of the rice in the bowl was eaten.

"Oh, I ate so much without realizing it. I feel like my appetite has increased recently. The food at the educated youth camp has no oil or water at all. It makes me feel so uncomfortable when I eat!"

Wen Nuan Dian nodded and agreed:

"Me too. I seem to be feeling particularly hungry lately. I ate a lot today, but we are still growing, so it's normal to eat more!"

"Yeah, yeah! I think so too. Fortunately, I made my clothes bigger before, otherwise I wouldn't be able to wear them."

Wen Nuan raised her head and looked in front of Nian Nian. It seemed that she was indeed older than when they first met her some time ago.

"If they don't fit, just make a few new ones. I bought a lot of defective ones before, and I brought them all here. I'll bring some to you next time I visit you!"

"Really? You bought a defective one. That thing is hard to get!"

"I have a classmate whose father works in a supply and marketing cooperative. She helps me. This is an internal benefit and it is really hard for outsiders to buy it!"

"Yeah, otherwise why would you be so nervous about the ticket? But I don't need it now, I still have enough clothes to wear!"

"It's okay if you have enough to wear. It's normal for girls to make two extra pieces of clothing!"

"Then I can't just ask you for it for free. You have to spend money to buy it, and you don't have that much money. I'll give you money when the time comes! Just consider it as you buying it for me!"

"It doesn't matter what money you have. I have so much money that I can't even use it all myself."

"That won't do. Things are things, and favors are favors. I know you're good to me and care about me, but I can't take all of this for granted!

You are good to me, so I should be good to you. You can't just take without giving. You will be sad after a long time!"
