Far away in Heilongjiang Province, Gong Moze was unaware that his grandparents were still worrying about his marriage! He tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep! "I wonder if Lin Jin has received the letter I wrote for her. I could call her, but it's very inconvenient in the military and because of my special status! It's also inconvenient for Lin Jin to make calls while she's at school!" Gong Moze sighed silently.
Unbeknownst to him, while he couldn't sleep, Lin Jin slept soundly until dawn. Lin Jin stretched, then remembered that she hadn't opened the bag Grandma Gong had brought last night! She didn't want any food inside to spoil! The bag was still on the low cabinet in the living room!
Lin Jin carefully took the items out of the bag one by one and placed them on the table. The first thing that caught her eye was several boxes of exquisite pastries, emitting an enticing aroma that made her mouth water. Next, she discovered various coupons and certificates, including grain coupons, cloth coupons, oil coupons, and so on—all important vouchers for supplies in that era.
When Lin Jin turned the bag to the bottom, a small box appeared before her eyes. Curious, she picked up the box, gently opened the lid, and inside was a pair of earrings! The earrings were exquisitely crafted, uniquely designed, and shimmered with a faint light.
Lin Jin stared at the earrings, her mind filled with doubt. "Why would Old Madam Gong give her earrings? She almost never wears earrings. This gift seems a bit inappropriate. Does Old Madam Gong have some special intention?" Lin Jin couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
The weather had become quite warm, and several rose bushes in the corner had already started to bloom. Lin Jincai was surprised to find that it was already May!
Lin Jin stood quietly in the courtyard, her gaze fixed on the few blooming rose bushes in the corner. A gentle breeze stirred, and the delicate petals trembled softly, like graceful dancers softly singing.
Gazing at the blooming roses, Lin Jin felt a complex mix of emotions. That vibrant color was like a sudden, delightful surprise in her life, breaking the monotony and dullness of daily routines. Each petal was unfurled, displaying its beauty to the fullest, reminding her of her past life! Strive! Fight! Be brave! Be optimistic!
Days passed like this, and Saturday arrived. She got up early because she had to go to several places that day. After breakfast, she tidied up, packed her medicine box and some fruits and vegetables from her storage space, and rode her bicycle to the alley where Li Yanjun lived.
Hearing the knock, Li Yanjun was curious. Who could be coming so early? Could it be an emergency? She hurriedly opened the door. Seeing Lin Jin carrying things in both hands, she was initially surprised, then smiled and took the things, saying, "Little Jin, come in quickly!" Lin Jin waved her hand and said, "Godmother, I can't have dinner with you and Godfather today! I have to go see a doctor for a friend's grandfather! Please take these fruits and vegetables home!" Lin Jin had brought fruits and vegetables many times before, so Li Yanjun didn't stand on ceremony and took them.
Li Yanjun was taken aback at first, then smiled and said, "You child, if you have something to do, go ahead and do it. You don't need to make this special trip! You finally got two days off, and you still had to get up early to come over."
"I'll feel at ease if I tell my godmother," Lin Jin replied with a smile. Li Yanjun held her hand and said with concern, "Then you must be careful when you treat patients. If you encounter any difficulties, just tell your godmother." Lin Jin nodded in agreement, chatted with Li Yanjun for a few more minutes, and then rode her bicycle to Jin Yuanyuan's house! Lin Jin had delivered fruits and vegetables to her many times before, so Li Yanjun accepted them without hesitation!
It took 20 minutes to ride the bike to Jin Yuanyuan's house. Lin Jin, as usual, took out some fruits and vegetables from her space, and there were bags of them too!
Lin Jin saw Jin Yuanyuan already standing at the door, seemingly having been waiting for some time. Lin Jin smiled and asked Jin Yuanyuan, "Were you waiting for me?"
Jin Yuanyuan greeted her with a smile, saying, "Yes, didn't you say you'd come earlier today?" Then, noticing the things in Lin Jin's hands, she paused for a moment before realizing what was happening and smiling as she took them, "Oh dear, you brought so much stuff again." Jin Yuanyuan led Lin Jin into the house. As soon as they entered, Lin Jin smelled a faint aroma of food; it turned out that Grandma Jin was having breakfast.
When Grandma Jin saw that Lin Jin had arrived so early, a happy smile appeared on her face. She quickly put down her chopsticks and stood up to invite Lin Jin to sit down and eat together.
