When the bell rang for the holiday at 10 a.m., Su Jin went to the kitchen to prepare lunch for Lu Shiyi and Ke Ying. Zong Li had just picked up Lin Lei and Lin Yan from school.
"Sister-in-law, I've brought the two brothers back." Zong Li brought the children over and went to the kitchen to find Su Jin. "The chief and Chief Ke went to the alley. The two children will not be going to school starting tomorrow."
Su Jin was stunned: "Is there something wrong at school?"
"The senior students have come into contact with the team members with red armbands. We are worried that someone will harm the two children. Sister Yunfeng is also changing her job today." Zong Li informed Su Jin.
Su Jin looked towards the living room, knowing that it was to protect the child.
"I'll make some extra lunch, and we'll discuss it at dinner time." Su Jin told Zong Li, "Go back and tell Political Commissar Lin and sister-in-law to come too."
Zong Li hummed, "Sister-in-law, I'm going to find the political commissar right away. Please keep an eye on him."
Su Jin walked into the house with the freshly made egg cake in her hand. The two brothers' eyes were red and they looked at Su Jin aggrievedly.
"Aunt Jin, we won't be going to class starting today. The teacher gave us some homework and we'll take the exam at the end of the semester." Lin Lei complained, "But many people in the class won't be going to class anymore."
The two brothers of the Lin family had several classmates whose fathers or mothers were teachers at the school, but they had stopped attending classes a long time ago.
"It's safest for you two to stay at home, and your mother will be able to work better." Su Jin put the egg cake on the table and comforted the two children.
Lin Lei and Lin Yan took out their textbooks from their bags and started to do the homework assigned by the teachers, hoping to get into the top ten in the final exam.
Su Jin returned to the kitchen and began to prepare lunch. She first cooked a pot of mixed grain rice on the stove, and then took a basket to pick vegetables from the vegetable garden behind.
She looked at the vegetables planted by Lu Shiyi and saw that they were growing well. Compared with him, Su Jin felt that she was just a loser.
"Xiao Jin, pick some more vegetables from my house." Yun Feng popped out from the yard of her home. "With so many people here today, we can't just eat your vegetables."
Yunfeng handed over the work in her hands, and from today on, the burden on her shoulders was lighter.
After students learned of the transfer, she received many thanks as she walked the corridors.
"Sister-in-law, how many days of classes will you have each week?" Su Jin asked curiously, "It would be even better if you could spend a whole day with me."
"I've moved my classes to Tuesday and Thursday, which is about the same time as your class." Yun Feng specially changed the classes, and Lu Shiyi was also worried about Su Jin going to work.
"Sister-in-law, it was Ayi who asked you for help, right?" Su Jin's cheeks flushed red at Lu Shiyinuoguang, and she felt a little embarrassed. "Don't delay your business."
Yun Feng shook her head: "I'm not a tongue bird, I go to class every week."
Su Jin took the bamboo basket handed to her by Yun Feng from the yard wall. There were a lot of vegetables in it.
"Sister-in-law, I noticed that your family has a lot of winter melons. I'll exchange two of them with your tofu." Su Jin heard Lin Lei say that Yunfeng has been making tofu dishes recently, and it's cabbage and tofu every day.
"I'll bring it to you. Don't give me tofu anymore. The father and his two sons don't want me to cook for them anymore." Yun Feng said helplessly.
Su Jin shook her head helplessly: "I'll teach you how to make vegetarian dishes with tofu that taste like meat later."
Yunfeng's eyes lit up. Lin Zitao mentioned that Su Jin had been cooking vegetarian dishes recently, and Lu Shiyi even brought him a box of food. Yunfeng also thought it was delicious.
Su Jin returned to the kitchen with the vegetable basket, and Yun Feng walked into the house carrying a winter melon in each hand.
"Xiao Jin, put the dishes aside. I'll help you." Yun Feng sat on the small stool in the kitchen and turned to look at Su Jin. "Old Lin, go back and tell him you made vegetarian dishes. It's better than eating noodles every day."
Every April, many team members do not eat meat, and most of them eat vegetarian noodles in the cafeteria. By the end of April, you can see that the team members' faces are not good.
"Sister-in-law, I use these to make vegetarian dishes. I only know a few dishes. It's okay to change them every day." Su Jin spread his hands, "Sister-in-law, I see that everyone is eating vegetarian dishes. The other day when I went to the cafeteria to get food, there was no lack of meat."
Yun Feng nodded: "Almost all of our team members have lost their comrades, and we can't visit their graves this year, so we can only express our grief in plain clothes."
Su Jin and Yun Feng were making lunch. Yun Feng was muttering about the team members who had come with Lin Zitao. Most of them had died or were injured and retired.
Nearing 12 o'clock, Lu Shiyi returned with Ke Ying, Lin Zitao and two guards. As Lin Zitao entered the living room, he smelled the scent in the air and exclaimed, "It smells really good."
A group of people sat around a round table, and Lu Shiyi raised his glass and looked at everyone.
"Old Ke will return to the capital tomorrow, so today is our chance to practice his skills." Lu Shiyi and Ke Ying made the handover, and from now on, he and Lin Zitao would lead the team members to look after Old Peng.
"Mr. Peng is in poor health and can't even get a doctor. Can you please prepare something for him to eat?" Lin Zitao looked at Lu Shiyi and asked, "After we take over, we can make arrangements for Mr. Peng."
"Xiao Jin, wait for me to pick you up after class the day after tomorrow. Let's go see him together." Lu Shiyi turned his head and looked at Su Jin and said, "You check Mr. Peng's pulse. For now, you can only take supplements from food."
"Sister-in-law knows medicine?" Ke Ying asked in surprise.
"Xiao Jin knows medical skills, and he studied under a Chinese medicine university." Lin Zitao told Ke Ying, "Lin Jiu knows Xiao Jin's master."
Ke Ying gave her a thumbs up and said, "Sister-in-law is all-rounder. Shi Yi needs to work hard to improve himself."
"Don't say that, Ayi is very good." Su Jin chuckled.
Lu Shiyi looked at Ke Ying with pride and said, "I'll call Grandpa Ke later and ask Grandma Ke to choose a wife for you."
Grandpa and Grandma Ke are eager for Ke Ying to get married soon. They have already selected several candidates for their grandson's wives. When everyone in the courtyard is in danger, these families can still be saved.
Ke Ying smiled bitterly: "Don't call me, or I'll be dragged away on a blind date."
Lu Shiyi and Lin Zitao smiled at each other, grateful for Ke Ying's secret help: "If you hadn't recommended us, Mr. Peng would probably have handed it over to Peng Hui and the others."
"Everyone wants to help." Ke Ying waved his hands hurriedly. "Grandpa and grandma reminded me before I left the imperial capital that I must help secretly and not cause any unnecessary harm."
The group raised their glasses and drank water, which was a tacit understanding.
"I'll try to come here on business trips in the future and bring you news from the capital," Ke Ying assured them. "I'll leave Mr. Peng in your care."
Lu Shiyi nodded: "Be careful when you return to the capital. Don't stand out too much. Always be alert to prevent being framed."
After lunch, Ke Ying drove the jeep over, stuffed the things he wanted to take back to the capital into the trunk, and then picked up his own luggage and prepared to leave.
"These two bottles of chili sauce are for you. This bottle is beef sauce. Take it back to the office. When there is no food in the cafeteria, you can eat it with steamed buns or noodles." Lu Shiyi took another can of fruit from Su Jin's hand and stuffed it into Ke Ying's hand.
"Thank you." Ke Ying looked at the two of them gratefully. Last night, he mentioned that his meal time was not fixed, so Su Jin prepared food for him today.
