When Grandpa Dong saw Lin Qingyan again, the image of his daughter appeared in his mind again. They were clearly two different people.
When he saw Lin Qingyan, that inexplicable sense of closeness welled up within him again, and he couldn't help but beam with joy.
"Young comrade, you've arrived."
Seeing that he was happy, Lin Qingyan said, "Grandpa, I can tell you're in a good mood today. You must keep this good feeling."
After taking Mr. Dong's pulse again, she prescribed him a medicine.
"Grandpa, please take the medicine according to this prescription first, and see how it goes after a while."
"Okay. I won't leave here until the day after tomorrow. I'll come back tomorrow to see if there's any news about Grandma."
She and Lu Zhengting left after sitting for a short while. As soon as they returned to the Lu family home, Lu's mother and Lu Xinping pulled Lin Qingyan and asked her to go to the department store with them.
"Mom, sister, what are you doing?"
Lu's mother said, "My daughter-in-law rarely comes here, so I want to buy her something."
Lu Xinping said, "I originally wanted to give my sister-in-law a gift first, but I don't know what you like. Let's go to the department store together. Whatever you like, I'll buy it for you."
Lin Qingyan didn't want them to spend too much money, but she couldn't resist their enthusiasm, so she invited Lu Zhengting to go with them.
Lu's mother bought Lin Qingyan a dress and a short-sleeved trousers outfit, while Lu Xinping gave Lin Qingyan a pair of the latest women's sandals.
The rest of the Lu family knew about Lin Qingyan receiving the courtyard house as a reward, and they went to visit the courtyard house after leaving the department store.
This was a two-courtyard house. Lin Qingyan took out her key and opened the gate. They went inside, looked around for a while, and then locked the gate again. They returned to the Lu family home.
After dinner, Lu Zhengting and Lin Qingyan chatted with the rest of the Lu family in the living room for a while. As soon as they returned to their room, Lu Zhengting pushed her onto the bed, preparing to have some intimate time before going to sleep. However, Lin Qingyan made a bold suggestion to him.
"Zhengting, let's go to the black market to sell grain."
Lu Zhengting was immediately jolted awake: "Wife, you've already decided to do this?"
"I'm just discussing this with you, aren't I?"
The man expressed his concerns, "Honey, going to the black market is very dangerous. We don't need the money, so let's not go."
"But it's such a waste to just leave all this food in my space. Don't worry, Zhengting, we have a space and makeup skills, so we won't be exposed."
He closed the door, led Lu Zhengting into the space, and showed him his makeup skills.
She transformed herself into a young man, and after the makeup was done, Lu Zhengting was indeed impressed. He couldn't see any resemblance to his wife in the "young man" in front of him.
"Honey, this is amazing! It's like she's become a completely different person."
"Of course, this is one of the four great evil arts of Asia in the future. How could it not be evil? No, I mean, how could it not be magical? I'll do some magic on you later, and you'll be like a completely different person."
He transformed Lu Zhengting into a middle-aged man in his fifties; when the two stood together, they exuded a strong father-son relationship.
Lu Zhengting didn't mind much, as long as they didn't become father and daughter.
Seeing how skilled she was at makeup, Lu Zhengting was no longer worried that they might expose their identities.
"Okay, honey, I promise to go with you."
"Okay. But Zhengting, you're going to change your name. Since you're tall, I'll call you Uncle Tall."
"Uncle?...Okay, call me that."
“You call me Shuanzi.”
"OK."
In the dead of night, while everyone in the family was asleep, they went out and climbed over the wall to get out of the yard.
When I arrived at the black market, a bustling transaction was in full swing.
Through the gatekeeper's introduction, they found the black market boss and struck a big deal with him, agreeing to meet in the woods to the south at this time the next day.
After reaching an agreement, the two of them left the black market.
Lin Qingyan patted her chest, "This is the first time I've done something like this."
“Me too,” he said. “Releasing the food supplies gives other people who can’t afford food a chance to buy it, which is a good thing.”
"Yes, we made money, and they had food to eat. It's a win-win situation."
The following morning, yesterday's commendation ceremony made the front page of the newspaper.
Lin and Jiang couldn't help but laugh when they saw the only young girl among the award winners in the newspaper.
Lu Family
Lin Qingyan and Lu Zhengting can stay here for two more days before returning to the military region the day after tomorrow.
Today, Lu's mother bought pork, scallions, and chives to make dumplings.
Lin Qingyan helped Lu's mother make dumplings. Because the family members had different tastes, they decided to make two kinds of dumpling fillings: pork and scallion, and pork and chives.
Knowing that Lin Qingyan was a good cook, Lu's mother entrusted her with the task of preparing the dumpling filling. Later, Lu Zhengting also came over to help make dumplings.
The three people were busy when an uninvited guest suddenly arrived.
After the knocking, Lu Zhengting stood up and said, "I'll go see who it is."
He walked to the door and froze when he saw who was coming from outside.
