Jiang Yuan smiled as she ate her food and continued, "The women in Haicheng are all very beautiful and know how to dress. They dress very fashionably and stylishly, have fair skin and great figures, and are all very charming."
"Really?" Lin Shan was slightly surprised.
"Really. Aunt Huaying is a native of Haicheng, and so is Aunt Xiao, her uncle's classmate. They are all high-level intellectuals, gentle and beautiful. With a little dressing up, that kind of exquisite charm hidden in their bones comes out."
"Moreover, their conversations, movements, every frown and smile, all exude an indescribable elegance and beauty. Even when they hold a teacup, their posture is much more graceful than ours. When you look at their photos later, you'll know I'm not lying."
Lin Shan's curiosity was aroused by her, and she immediately separated the braised pork elbow in the middle and kept putting it into the two sisters' bowls, speeding up her eating.
"Eat quickly, eat quickly, and look at the photos after you finish eating."
The other members of the Lin family were also curious, so they all hurried, but they also carefully savored the flavors of the fresh seafood.
When the photo album was taken out, the only sound in the room was Lin Shan's screams.
"Wow, Huaying, your cousin is so beautiful."
"Your uncle is so handsome, and your cousins are also very handsome."
"Oh my god, your cousin is so handsome, even more handsome than Brother Zheng. Does he have a girlfriend?"
"Your cousin has no partner, and I am your sister. Should you consider me as your cousin's wife first?"
“…”
Jiang Yuan sat nearby and laughed non-stop: "It's over, it's over, Lin Shan has gone crazy."
Lin's mother also slapped her daughter in amusement, "You are not a reserved lady at all. If you are like this, which gay man would dare to marry you in the future?"
"Mom, I was just kidding." Lin Shan said with a smile.
Most of the photos were taken by Yun Huaying. Although the pixels of today's cameras are far inferior to those of later high-definition cameras, she has good photography skills and is good at framing. The photos she developed have been unanimously recognized by everyone.
It is very expensive to develop photos nowadays, but they are willing to spend the money. They developed at least three sets of photos taken this time, spending more than 100 yuan.
Lin Shan mainly looked at the people, while the others looked at the people, the scenery, and the architectural features. There were no televisions in those days, and printed photos were rarely seen in newspapers. They could only imagine the prosperity of big cities from the introductions in books. The photos they brought back allowed them to truly experience the prosperity of big cities.
After looking through the two photo albums, Lin's father sighed: "Our Jing County is still too backward and remote. If you have the chance, you should all go out and see the wonderful world outside."
"Yes, going to see the prosperous big cities outside will change your whole mood." Jiang Yuan has a deep understanding of this.
"Oh, I regret not going to play with you." Lin Shan really regretted it.
"There will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
Yun Huaying had just rummaged through her luggage and found the gifts she had brought for the Lin family. She distributed them to them one by one: "Uncle, I saw you smoke, so I bought you a lighter in Jinling."
"Huaying, uncle likes it, thank you."
Father Lin accepted it with a smile. This lighter was different from the usual ones. This one was much more exquisite and high-end.
She picked out a red silk scarf embroidered with peony flowers and a scarlet lipstick that was very popular among female comrades in Haicheng for Lin's mother. Lin's mother liked both of them very much. She smiled and immediately tried them on.
I bought an alarm clock and a small desk lamp for the two older brothers of the Lin family and let them divide it among themselves.
Lin Shan didn't give any individual gifts. She had bought a bunch of things anyway, so she just took whatever she liked.
Jiang Yuan also bought them gifts, all of which were new things not available in Jing County, practical and sincere.
The two of them stayed at the Lin family's for one night. Lin Shan packed her luggage that evening. The next morning, after having a hearty breakfast at home, she took her luggage and the various bacon, fish, eggs, etc. that Lin's parents had carefully prepared for the three of them and took the train back to Yang County.
The three of them had a lot of luggage, so Lin Jian took half a day off and helped them all the way to the train carriage.
When they returned to the production team, all three were exhausted. They threw their bags on the ground and collapsed on the bed. They all lay there for half an hour before getting up to tidy up.
The team's soy products factory started operations early, and the educated youth still had one day of vacation left. Yun Huaying and her friends were considered to have arrived early.
After the three of them finished sorting out the things, they took some candies, dried fruits and other gifts to give to the village cadres, distributed some to the children, and gave some cakes, eggs, etc. to Qiu Shiyan and Yang Min.
Yang Min had some morning sickness during her pregnancy and was lying down to rest during the Lunar New Year holiday. When she saw them coming, she immediately got out of bed and said, "I thought you guys were coming tomorrow. How come you're here a day early?"
"Everyone in my family has to go to work, so we might as well come here a day earlier. We can rest for a day and won't be in such a rush."
Lin Shan carried the things in both hands and placed them on the simple wooden table. She smiled and said, "Sister Yang Min, Huaying and Jiang Yuan bought the cakes and candies. I brought the eggs from home, and there's also a small bag of red dates. You can stew them later to supplement your nutrition."
"Thank you." Yang Min hurriedly thanked them and immediately went to pour them some water.
"Sister Yang Min, stop busying yourself. We just boiled some water at home and had some tea." Yun Huaying moved a stool and sat down, waving at her: "Come here, I'll take your pulse."
"Oh, okay, I was just thinking of asking you to take a look at me. I've been feeling unwell these past few days. I have no energy at all, and even drinking soup makes me want to vomit."
Yun Huaying took her pulse and confirmed it before saying, "The fetus is stable. This is a normal pregnancy reaction. Even if you can't eat, you should find a way to eat more. If you can't eat meat, don't eat it for the time being. Alternate between vegetable soup, porridge, and eggs to get enough nutrition."
"That's good." Yang Min was relieved and said with a smile, "I've been making some vegetable porridge or white porridge every day recently. I eat it four or five times a day, half a bowl each time, and eat it slowly."
"Yes, as long as you take it. In about a month, the symptoms will subside and it won't be like this anymore."
It was Yang Min's first pregnancy, so she was a little nervous. But this time she said the fetus was stable, and she was no longer worried at all. She got up and got some peanuts and soybeans to treat them.
After chatting about the New Year for a while, Yang Min told them again, "I heard from Shi Yan yesterday that the commune has announced that the school teacher assessment will be held the day after tomorrow. They're recruiting eight teachers in total. Are you going to participate?"
"I'm not going." Yun Huaying shook her head.
Yang Min knew she was going to the city hospital and said with a smile, "Yun Zhiqing, your job is much better than being a school teacher. There's no need to apply for this teaching position."
She wasn't going, and neither was Jiang Yuan: "I wanted to go before, but now I don't plan to. The work at the soy product factory isn't tiring, and I earn more work points than the teachers. I won't fight for the spot."
