On the farm, Old Song and Old Wei led the old people to measure the dimensions of the fields. Old Wei planned to ask his former subordinates to deliver greenhouse film to the farm for experiments in the greenhouse.
Mr. Wei was a veteran of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences. When he was sent here, his greenhouse vegetable experiments were not yet completed.
"I received the letter. If our experiment here is successful, we can also accumulate some experience for the Agricultural Science Academy." Old Wei thought he had done a good job. "Besides, we have vegetables in winter, which can also alleviate the food shortage."
Mr. Wei has asked Lu Shiyi to send a telegram to the imperial capital. After his subordinates have arranged the greenhouse film, they will mail it directly to him.
"Mr. Wei, a telegram came from the imperial capital saying that preparations should be made now and everything will be ready tomorrow. I will personally ship it back to you." Lu Shiyi came from a distance and happened to hear what Mr. Wei said. He had an idea in his mind.
"Ayi, are you serious?" Elder Wei stood up straight immediately, his eyes fixed on Lu Shiyi. "Are you serious? You drove it back yourself."
Lu Bairen stared at his grandson for a long time, handed the farm tools in his hand to Uncle Yang, and after Lu Shiyi finished talking to Old Wei, he took him back home.
Lu Shiyi put the apple on the table, and Lu Bairen looked at him seriously.
"Something happened? Why do you insist on going back to the imperial capital?!" Lu Bairen asked in a cold tone.
"Grandpa, I want to go back and see what the situation is like. According to what Achang said, the situation is really bad." Lu Shiyi and Lu Bairen said, "Second Uncle and Third Uncle's food and meat are ready. I will mail them after I return from the imperial capital."
After listening to his grandson's words, Lu Bairen's father began to arrange for his two younger brothers to leave from the day he left the imperial capital. Lu Bairen realized that the situation in the imperial capital was not good.
"Have you discussed this with your father?" Lu Bairen drank water from the teacup while Lu Shiyi went to the kitchen to wash the apples.
Lu Shiyi sat on the sofa and shook his head at Lu Bairen.
"Achang and I went back to deliver documents to Xiaojin." Lu Bairen didn't dare to hide it. "I wanted to visit my parents and then deliver the things over there. Grandpa has a courtyard in the imperial capital."
"How should we arrange things here? We should be away for two or three days." Lu Shiyi and Lu Bairen discussed. "Xiao Jin said she wants to stay in the family compound. Three days will pass quickly."
"Let Xiao Jin go back to the farm. What will you do if someone breaks into the house?" Lu Bairen had heard about the madness outside and didn't want Su Jin to get hurt.
"Before I leave, arrange for two teams of Excalibur to provide protection, one for the visible and one for the invisible. I'll try to make my round trip within two days." Lu Shiyi told Lu Bairen, "Grandpa, do you have anything for me to say to my parents?"
Du Ruo came back from outside and heard the grandfather and grandson talking. After putting the dishes in the kitchen, he came back to eat an apple.
"Grandma, I'm going to the capital in the next two days to help Xiaojin deliver documents and bring back greenhouse film for Grandpa Wei." Lu Shiyi told Du Ruo, "I'm going back to see my parents. Grandma, do you have anything to say?"
Du Ruo shook his head directly: "You have arranged Xiao Jin. This is for Elder Wei to use as an experimental field. You definitely can't hide the news."
Lu Shiyi smiled helplessly and said, "Grandma, I know."
After chatting with the old couple for a while, he prepared to drive away, while Mr. Wei waited outside the yard.
"Ayi, you don't need to go back to Beijing to get the greenhouse film. The situation at the Agricultural Science Academy isn't particularly good. If... you get implicated, it would be my fault. I just called back, and my student said they would personally deliver it." Elder Wei reached out and patted Lu Shiyi. "Be careful when you return to the imperial capital. I've sent a message from my people. Many of the children of your grandfather and the other elders have left the imperial capital. Tell your father to be careful. Nothing is more important than life."
Lu Shiyi nodded and drove back to the family compound.
As soon as she arrived at the door of her house, she saw several sisters-in-law coming with their children. Su Jin stood at the door and greeted them.
"Ayi is back, I have to go back and cook!" Several sisters-in-law looked at Lu Shiyi coming back and greeted him guiltily.
After the sisters-in-law took the children away, Lu Shiyi's face became gloomy. He thought about leaving secretly, but it seemed that the situation did not allow it.
"Wife, I took the apples to grandpa and grandma!" Lu Shiyi kept looking at the corner of the yard and found that his sisters-in-law had not left.
He closed the gate behind him to block the view of the family and the military wives.
The two returned to the living room, and Su Jin pointed helplessly at the baby carriage next to the sofa.
"Not long after you drove away, these people brought their children here. I said I had to work, but I couldn't let them go back." Su Jin complained, "Ayi, I think it might not be realistic for you to secretly return to Beijing."
"Old Wei also said so. We must wait for Achang to come over for dinner, and then we can discuss it." Lu Shiyi sneered, "After cleaning up a group of people, some people are slowly surfacing."
Su Jin had prepared dinner in advance, including the chicken stewed with mushrooms that Lu Shiyi had arranged, as well as hairtail fish burritos.
Although there were only two dishes on the table, Su Jin made the portions very generous.
"Ayi, why don't we go to Beijing together?" Su Jin thought for a long time and decided to deliver the document in person. "Everyone should know the importance of this document. It shouldn't be a problem if I deliver it in person."
Just as Lu Shiyi was about to agree, he heard the sound of the front door opening.
Zong Li opened the gate and found Liu Lao and Liu Chuchang, the grandfather and grandson, standing in front of the door.
"Old Chief, why didn't Chief Xu come? Sister-in-law has prepared Chief Xu's meal." Zong Li's meal was already packed, and he would return to the guard squad after the old Liu and his grandson arrived.
"Grandpa Liu, didn't you ask Uncle Xu to come as well?" Lu Shiyi hurried out to greet Zong Li after hearing his words.
Su Jin placed Hanhan's baby chair on the edge of the table and Hanhan's complementary food on the tabletop. The little guy ate with a spoon in an orderly manner.
Old Liu and Liu Chuchang came in from the door. Seeing Hanhan's little appearance, the old man became happy.
"Grandpa Liu, I heard from Ayi that you like these two dishes very much. Come and see if I cook them authentically!" Su Jin came over with a plate of mixed grain rice.
Old Liu's eyes lit up, but he said worriedly, "You're not going to give me all the supplies for a month, are you?"
"Grandpa Liu, am I that kind of person? Didn't Achang tell you what I did in private?" Lu Shiyi glanced at Liu Chuchang, "Achang buys all the food for his family from me."
"Ayi, you have taken the same path as the Yan family. The black market in the imperial capital is not easy to get involved in. You'd better not get involved." For the sake of his family, Old Liu once inquired about the situation in the black market and found that there was someone behind the Yan family.
"Grandpa Liu, I know how deep the water is over there. Why don't you let Uncle Liu Er and Uncle Liu San and the others evacuate the imperial capital?" Lu Shiyi was not sure what Grandpa Liu meant.
"Those two families didn't do as I said and became involved with some powerful people in the imperial capital." Old Liu said nothing more. "I asked Achang and his son to leave the imperial capital so that the Liu family could rise again."
