"Yes, Mom and Dad said there are some dishes at home, and my second sister-in-law also prepared something for you and the children."
"Since I got pregnant, my second sister-in-law has given me a lot of things. I shouldn't have asked for them, but what she gave me was what I needed and couldn't buy outside, so I shamelessly accepted them. Why did she take so much again?"
Liu Lin opened the bag and saw what was inside and said
Whether it is milk powder, brown sugar, cotton cloth, etc., they are all good things that are in short supply now, especially milk powder. You can't buy it at the supply and marketing cooperatives. You have to use connections. The supply and marketing cooperatives can only buy malted milk.
Everyone says that malted milk is good for you, but her sister-in-law knew in the hospital that the nutritional value of malted milk cannot be compared with that of milk powder.
Before her sister-in-law knew that she was pregnant, she told her that she would get her two packets of milk powder as a backup. Later, she finally got one packet.
Her second sister-in-law gave her milk powder last time, and this time she gave her two cans. Not to mention that this required the use of connections, just these two cans of milk powder were not cheap.
"Keep it. We really need it. Second brother and his wife are so kind to us. I will remember it in my heart and repay them in the future."
"Yes, my second brother and his wife really have nothing to say about us."
As Liu Lin said this, she opened the bag of vegetables again. In addition to the vegetables, there was also a slaughtered chicken and another large bag.
"This is?"
When he opened the bag, there was a cured fish, a hare and a bag of braised beef inside.
When Liu Lin saw it, she knew that these must have been added by Li Miaomiao.
"Second sister-in-law, this is really something I don't know how I can repay you."
Even Liu Lin noticed it, so Pei Guoqiang could naturally see that these things were added by Li Miaomiao, and he felt touched again.
"I won't go into details, just remember some of them. We don't need to buy food for dinner, though. These are enough to entertain my parents and my eldest brother. Especially the braised beef. My second sister-in-law's braised beef is so delicious, even the ones in the cafeteria can't compare to it."
In the evening, Liu's father and Liu's eldest brother came over and saw such a rich meal.
"Guoqiang, what you've prepared is too lavish. I know how much you care about us, but please don't spend so much money in the future, especially since Linlin is about to give birth. Having a child will cost you a lot of money."
"Dad, big brother, these were sent by Guoqiang's parents and second brother and his wife."
Liu Lin said this and told the story of the old couple of the Pei family following the second branch to the provincial capital.
"Your second brother is a capable and kind man, and your second sister-in-law is also very generous, otherwise she wouldn't have sent so many things. You must remember their kindness, even if they are your own relatives, you must be grateful. No kindness should be taken for granted."
"Dad, I know. I've told Guoqiang before that I'll definitely repay you when I have the chance."
Father Liu nodded: "It's good that you know what's going on."
Li Miaomiao asked her son to chat with her parents-in-law. She was so sleepy that she fell asleep leaning on the chair.
Pei Guoan had been paying attention to Li Miaomiao's movements and shook his head. It was rare that this girl didn't compete with him for driving this time.
Yes, he has been busy these past two days. He gets up before dawn every day to plant sweet potato seedlings in the yard, but he is not allowed to help. I don’t know what he is doing. He has to clean up during the day. He is so exhausted.
When she got home, it was already noon. Li Miaomiao rubbed her sleepy eyes and realized that she was already home.
"This yard is really big."
Old man Pei and Old lady Pei were still a little dazed when they saw such a big yard. This was not a yard in the countryside. They could actually live in such a house, and the vegetable garden in the yard was very well maintained.
"Mom and Dad, this is the room you're staying in. I've already cleaned it up and the bedding is all new." Li Miaomiao took her parents-in-law to the room she had prepared.
"Mom, have you prepared a room for me?"
Although Pei Yifan acted very calm all the way, he was still a child after all, so he couldn't help but ask
"certainly!"
Li Miaomiao took her son to the room opposite: "Look, this is your room. Everything in the room was carefully selected and prepared by me for you. Do you like it?"
"I like it, thank you, Mom!"
The moment he opened the room, Pei Yifan's face showed a look of surprise.
Luo Shaoze was watering the vegetable patch in his yard when he heard the noise. He came over and greeted Old Man Pei and Old Lady Pei before looking at Pei Guoan: "You guys came back pretty quickly. I thought you wouldn't be back for two days."
"I'm not afraid of anything happening here. I'll come back as soon as I can after finishing things back home."
At noon, Li Miaomiao made some food and cooked some shredded pork noodles.
Zhou Shao probably knew that they were back, so he came over in a hurry.
Li Miaomiao thought Zhou Shao was looking for Pei Guoan for something, but he actually came to look for her.
"After so much effort, he finally softened his stance, but he also made some demanding demands."
"What did that person ask for?"
Li Miaomiao guessed that this had something to do with her, otherwise Zhou Shao wouldn't have come to her so anxiously.
Zhou Shao explained the situation: "That's roughly what he meant. Even if he's willing to help the government with research, there's no one who can cooperate with him. He has the knowledge in his head, but his body has been damaged over the past few years. The actual operation is simply impossible to complete unless he has a very capable assistant."
Li Miaomiao listened to the request. Although the person made the request deliberately to make things difficult and was unwilling to take action, it was also reflecting the actual situation.
“Such a request is indeed difficult to achieve.”
"But if it were you, could you do it?"
Zhou Shao knew Li Miaomiao's abilities, which was why he came to find her in such a hurry. He really couldn't think of anyone else who could be her assistant.
"This request is not too difficult for me. If you trust me, I can give it a try."
Although Li Miaomiao was afraid of trouble, she had already decided to get involved in this matter. Moreover, it was Zhou Shao who came to her this time. Even if it was to help Zhou Shao solve a problem, she had to go.
"Great, I'll arrange it right away."
Zhou Shao said this, as if thinking of something: "Miao Miao, that person has a bad temper. After all, he's been through something like that. He agreed this time because we put in a lot of effort and made him reluctantly agree."
Li Miaomiao immediately understood what Zhou Shao meant. "Don't worry, I won't hold it against him. Not to mention that he chose to return to China under such circumstances and suffered such unfair treatment. He's still willing to work for the country now. His ability alone is something I admire."
"Okay, I'd be happy if you could understand."
Zhou Shao's worries were not in vain, as Li Miaomiao had always shown that she had a very bad temper.
