"Old He, when did you start being so polite to me? You used to exploit me every day, and now you're already feeling guilty for spending just a few dollars."
"Tch, I'm only dragging you along because you're a nobody now, penniless and carless, and I feel sorry for you."
"Hmph, so what if I'm a nobody now? I'm still better than you... Lao He, wouldn't you say we're sworn brothers now?"
"That's for sure. Our relationship is better than even a husband's. The beef noodles were good today. If it weren't so early in the morning, I would have eaten the crayfish too."
"Old He, I'm about to join the crew. I need to work hard to earn money, try to buy a car, and a big house, a ground floor house, or a small villa, so it will be more convenient for me to deliver supplies to you then."
Now, when I go shopping, I rent a van.
"Old Yun, you've worked hard. You go and do your job in the film crew. I'm not worried about food or drink now, and I have several hundred yuan on me. Even if you don't send me supplies, I can lie down for two years without any problem."
"I'm free these few days, so I'll stock up on some more goods for you."
"Oh, by the way, get me some toilet paper, the kind from the 70s or 80s. I'm really short of that right now."
"Okay, do you want a sanitary napkin?"
"No, I'm sleeping in a dormitory and using a public toilet, I'm too scared. Could you get me a modified menstrual belt?"
After He Wan returned home, Yun Shudai searched for toilet paper from the 1970s and 80s on Taobao. She found a brand called Chunfeng with red paper and large sheets of it, and ordered twenty sheets for He Wan.
She went out the door, carrying the wild vegetables and wild mushrooms that He Wan had left for her, and went to her sister's house.
My sister and brother-in-law live in a high-end residential area within the Third Ring Road.
It's a high-rise building with one apartment per floor. My sister lives on the 23rd floor, and from her balcony in the living room, she can see the river view.
"Sis, I'm downstairs."
"Okay, I'll have the property management renew your elevator access."
"good."
She used to live in a house like this. Alas, life is unpredictable. Now she's become a minor supporting actress. What a tragic fate!
"Why did you come here today?" Yun Shuran asked, her face still covered by a face mask as she opened the door for her.
"Sister, where are brother-in-law and Shaoze?"
“Your brother-in-law went to the hotel, and Shaoze went with him.”
“A friend of mine picked some wild vegetables and mushrooms in the mountains, and I brought them to you.”
"Wow, these wild vegetables are quite fresh."
"Yes, I just picked them today."
"Which mountain did you pick it from? This is really good."
"Ah, I... I don't know either. Also, I bought my brother-in-law a bottle of Moutai. It's quite old."
Upon hearing "Moutai," Yun Shuran hurriedly took it. Looking at the vintage and packaging, she was so surprised she almost dropped it: "Shushu, where...where did you find this? It's from 1971, is it real?"
“A friend of mine likes to collect old things. I bought this bottle from her. I also left one for my dad, and this one is for my brother-in-law.”
Yun Shuran carefully put it away and said, "Your brother-in-law isn't here today. If he were, he'd be laughing his head off. This bottle must be worth tens of thousands, Shushu. I'll transfer the money to you in a bit. You don't earn as much money as I do."
"Sis, this is for you. Why are you giving me money? I'm about to join a film crew, and I'll definitely earn more money than you in the future. Don't be so polite with me."
"By the way, about the old items from that era that you asked me to help you find, I can recommend a blogger to you. She sells snacks from that time, some enamel mugs, and occasionally some other old items from that era."
"Okay, sis, you recommend her to me, I'll keep an eye on her."
Thinking about her current situation, Yun Shudai grabbed her arm and said coquettishly, "Sister, can I drive your two-door car for the next few days?"
Yun Shuran then remembered that her younger sister didn't have a car, and said, "That car was bought by your brother-in-law and me when we first started our business. It's been so many years. You drive the four-door car in my basement. It was a birthday gift from your brother-in-law a few years ago, but I haven't driven it much."
"I don't want it, I like the two-door one, it's so cool to drive."
"Okay, you can drive it. I'll give you the car."
“I don’t want it. That car was the first car your brother-in-law gave you after graduation. I can’t afford to make him angry.”
Yun Shuran chuckled: "Just because of this bottle of wine you had today, he wouldn't dare."
