When the group returned home, Wang Qiufen was standing in the yard. She held the chicken's head tightly with one hand and quickly pulled out the feathers under the chicken's neck with the other hand.
On the stool next to it was a sharp kitchen knife and a bowl for collecting chicken blood.
When she saw everyone coming back, she quickly threw the chicken in her hand to the ground, wiped her hands back and forth on her apron, and came forward to greet them warmly.
"You're back, come sit inside."
Seeing the scene in front of me, I knew what was going on without asking.
"Qiufen, we can eat whatever we have at home. It's better to keep this chicken for laying eggs." Grandma said sincerely.
It was almost noon, and the meal was definitely necessary. Grandma didn't say anything polite about not wanting to eat, but instead expressed her sincere desire not to let Wang Qiufen spend money to entertain them.
After all, during the years they were sent down to the countryside, they knew very well how difficult life was in the countryside.
Wang Qiufen replied generously, "Oh, it's just a chicken, no big deal! We are so happy today, we must celebrate properly!"
"Grandma and grandpa, please go inside and rest for a while. The meal will be ready soon." After saying that, she turned around and continued to work.
Qin Zhen asked Pan Feng to take out all the gifts he had brought. Old Master Jin glared at Jin Hanwen and asked, "You came here empty-handed?"
Jin Hanwen touched his nose guiltily. How could he know that the Lu family was secretly taking care of the old man!
As soon as he got the documents, he couldn't wait to come and pick someone up.
He didn't know about this until he heard the old man talk about it on the way back just now.
He doesn't have the ability to predict the future, so it's not his fault, right?
However, he only dared to mutter these words in his heart. Since others took the risk to take care of his father, it was only right for them to express their gratitude no matter what.
So Jin Hanwen quickly said, "Dad, I have the money and I'll ask Xiao Liu to buy it right away."
Mr. Jin hummed and urged, "Buy more."
Lu Rongjiang, who had been listening to the conversation between the father and son, hurriedly spoke up to dissuade them, "No need. We have everything we need at home. There's really no need to buy more. Besides, I didn't do anything."
Lu Cheng and Lu Chang were taught by Professor Yang and wanted to take care of others, so they took the opportunity to take care of Mr. Jin who lived with them. They took care of him without ever thinking about asking for anything in return.
Old Master Jin waved his hand and said firmly, "A drop of kindness should be repaid with a spring. Captain, I will always remember your care for me, and a little thank you is due."
He turned his gaze to Qin An Ning again, his eyes filled with gratitude, and spoke with a slightly excited voice, "If it weren't for the medicine that Ning Ning gave me to regulate my body, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to live to this day.
So Ningning, Grandpa Jin also thanks you, but I will give you the gift after we return to Beijing."
Hearing what Grandpa Jin said, Qin Anning winked playfully and joked, "Grandpa Jin, I have very high standards. I wouldn't be interested in ordinary gifts!"
After hearing this, Mr. Jin was not angry at all. Instead, he laughed heartily. "Okay then, tell me what you like. As long as it's within my ability, I will definitely do my best to meet your requirements."
Qin Anning lowered his head slightly, pretending to be thinking. After a while, he raised his head and replied, "Then please take good care of yourself, Grandpa Jin, and continue to shine for the motherland!"
Even if Mr. Jin is not reinstated after his return, his position will not be low.
She didn't expect to gain any benefits from Mr. Jin, but having this favor would also be a connection if something really happened.
She didn't lack anything, so it was worth exchanging the gift for favors from the Jin family.
"Hahaha, hahaha..." Mr. Jin first laughed heartily, then responded loudly, "Okay, I will continue to shine for the motherland!"
The atmosphere in the room was livened up, and several people regained their identities. They were all in a good mood, and their voices were filled with joy in their conversation.
Qin An Ning quietly stepped out and went to the kitchen to help Wang Qiufen cook.
Wang Qiufen did not hesitate at the critical moment. She stewed a chicken and took out the fried dough sticks that she had originally planned to save for later and stir-fried them with vegetables. She also fried ten eggs without hesitation. In short, the lunch was very sumptuous.
Lu Cheng was really lucky. He came back just as the food was ready and served on the table.
Seeing so many people in the room, he was stunned for a moment before realizing what was going on. He said with a smile on his face, "There's good news, right?"
Qin Anning replied happily, "Yes, the rehabilitation documents for Grandma, Grandpa, and Grandpa Jin have all arrived."
"Then we have to celebrate!" After saying that, he picked up the bottle and poured wine for the elders.
Lu Cheng is a good talker, and now he is spouting nice words without asking for anything in return, making everyone laugh.
After dinner, Jin Hanwen discussed returning to Beijing with Mr. Jin. The purpose of Jin Hanwen coming here was to take Mr. Jin home. Once he was picked up, there was no need for him to stay any longer.
Qin Zhenxian said, "You guys go first. I still have to go to Lin County to pick someone up, so I won't be going with you."
Hearing this, Mr. Jin nodded and said, "Then let's meet again in Beijing."
After bidding farewell to Mr. Jin and Jin Hanwen, Qin Zhen turned to Qin Anning and said, "Ningning, you and Lu Cheng should come with me to pick up your uncle and aunt."
Qin Anning was a little confused as to why Qin Zhen made such an arrangement, but she didn't think much about it. She was very happy to go and pick up her uncle and aunt.
"If I had known you were coming today, I wouldn't have rushed to see them. It would have been better to just go with the good news."
