Chapter 21 A Respectful Visit
Lin Yi had gone far away on his bicycle, so Fang Mingche did not plan to call him.
Let's proceed as planned. Visit after dinner, so that it will be convenient for both parties.
Nowadays, meals are prepared according to the number of people, and no family is well-off.
As for Yanyan, she has never seen her grandma, grandpa and uncle.
A Yan came back last year without her. She was too young and it was more troublesome to take her with her.
He put his daughter down from his back and combed her hair.
The two braids were crooked, so he tied them again. She looks more energetic this way!
There is no heating in the room. Nowadays, collective heating has not yet started in the private houses in BJ.
He held his daughter in one hand and fetched hot water from the two thermoses provided in the room in the other hand.
Then he helped his daughter wipe her hands and face. He also held out his vest to wipe it.
Wipe her face clean and then apply Pechoin.
Finally, soak her feet.
Yanyan was very happy, "Wipe it well and go see your mother."
"Yes!"
Then he changed her into a cotton coat made of space cotton. This was worn by his cousin's daughter, and it's still 90% new.
There are also gloves of the same quality, hanging around the neck with a thin string.
He originally asked his cousin to buy one on the black market.
His cousin said not to waste the money, and go home and get his daughter's one.
"Children grow fast. It was full last year, and it's shorter this year."
It's common for younger sisters to wear older sisters' clothes now. This one costs 20 yuan less!
Fang Mingche accepted the favor. It fits Yanyan perfectly now.
Then his cousin bought Yanyan a pair of cotton boots. This is much more fashionable than handmade cotton shoes.
His cousin said he was going to BJ and wanted to dress more fashionable.
Yanyan stood in front of the dressing mirror, twisting and turning to take pictures. He was very satisfied with his outfit.
"Sit here and wait, Dad will wash your hair."
After three days of riding in the car, his hair was a little dirty.
His hair is short and dries quickly. Yanyan's will be washed tomorrow at noon when the sun comes out. Don't catch a cold!
Yanyan held the hot water that his father had just poured out and drank it.
After three days of sitting on the train, I was almost exhausted. Now, after a bit of tidying up, I looked presentable. Fang Mingche
quickly washed his hair and dried it.
Then he dusted off the military coat hanging on the wall and put it on. He just changed into a pair of fur shoes to match, which he polished to a shine.
Military coats are the most fashionable winter clothes nowadays.
He also had a short cotton-padded jacket, but he didn't bring it with him. He simply gave it to his father when he left.
It was made of cotton and was very warm to wear. But it was indeed not fashionable enough.
But the key point was that he couldn't bring it with him. He had to carry his daughter on his back, so two suitcases were the limit.
"Okay, let's go to the state-owned restaurant next door for dinner. After dinner, we'll go find mom."
Fang Mingche asked his cousin to exchange some national food coupons for him. Otherwise, the food coupons of this province could not be used outside the province.
On the black market, food coupons were hard currency. It wasn't difficult to get them from his cousin.
This time, his father was very angry and didn't care about him at all. It was
not like the last time he accompanied A Yan back to visit relatives, when everything was prepared for him.
He himself was too busy to take care of it.
In order not to trouble two people for one thing, he entrusted everything to his cousin.
Fang Mingche carried the nutritional supplements he brought from the black market. He carried Yanyan downstairs directly.
The father and daughter had dressed up specially, and they were both very good-looking, which made them more eye-catching.
After they asked for the address of the state-owned restaurant, the two waitresses at the counter started talking about it.
"He is so beautiful, a bit like Tang Guoqiang."
"His daughter is also cute, like a child star. What is he doing here?"
He flipped through the registration book and found that he was visiting relatives.
When he arrived at the state-owned restaurant, he waited in line for a while.
While waiting in line, he saw today's menu. There were people selling stir-fried vegetables, rice, and noodles.
Fang Mingche held his daughter in his arms all the time, and the father and daughter discussed what to eat.
Yanyan said she wanted to eat noodles.
"Dad is afraid you won't be used to it. The noodles in the north are chewy and can't be cooked soft. Unlike our noodles in the south, which are relatively soft."
Commonly known as Bang Bang Noodles.
But Yanyan didn't seem to have a good appetite and was not very interested in cooking.
"How about this, Dad will order Yanyan a bowl of noodles to try."
Today's state-owned restaurants don't have food specifically for children.
The egg cakes and steamed cakes he bought before were the better things he could buy and ready-made for children.
But after eating them for three consecutive days, he definitely didn't want to eat them for the time being.
It seems that Yanyan really can't stay in a hotel or eat out with him. It would be great if he could find a rental house as soon as possible.
The noodles were delivered, and Yanyan was happy to eat them.
As for Fang Mingche, he had eaten a lot in his previous life, so he had long been accustomed to "Bang Bang Noodles".
And there are benefits to not being soft noodles. Fang Mingche fed his daughter while eating by himself.
At the end of the meal, there was no lumps in the noodles.
The big meat noodles they ate had large chunks of lean meat.
Fang Mingche only gave his daughter one piece, because she couldn't digest it if she ate too much.
It tasted good, even if Yanyan's was not spicy, it was still delicious. The little girl's eyes were curved while eating.
After eating, she drank another bowl of noodle soup.
The father and daughter left the state-owned restaurant and walked towards the compound where Lin Yan's family lived.
At this time, almost every household had eaten dinner.
After Yanyan walked a short distance to digest the food, Fang Mingche picked her up again.
It was less tiring to hold her than to lead her, because she was too short.
Holding her with one hand, he looked like a little figurine. So cute!
"My daughter is so pretty!"
Yanyan smiled and said, "Dad is pretty too."
Fang Mingche walked over and stood at the door for a while.
"Hey, comrade, who are you looking for?" A family living at the door saw that Fang Mingche and his daughter both looked extraordinary, so they asked enthusiastically.
Fang Mingche switched to standard Mandarin and said, "Let's look for Lin Yan."
"Oh, look for Ayan."
I heard that someone introduced Ayan to a gay man with a child, and he is also a small leader in the factory. Could it be this guy?
Such a handsome and graceful man, it seems that he should have some family background.
Why don't you agree? Is the man in her country so good?
The neighbor shouted enthusiastically: "Ayan, there is a gay man looking for you, and he is bringing a child--" As
soon as this voice came out, people from several rooms looked over.
Lin Yan's mother came out.
Fang Mingche walked over with Yanyan in his arms, "Yanyan, call grandma--"
Yanyan smiled and said, "Grandma, I am Yanyan."
Lin's mother looked at them father and daughter in a daze, and then she realized who came to the door.
Look at Fang Mingche's face carefully.
Yes, it was indeed the former son-in-law who came four years ago. However, he looked much calmer than four years ago.
Lin Yan originally walked out very slowly, and she also thought that it was the man who was deceived to go on a blind date before.
What is the operation of bringing a child? She had clearly refused that day.
But when she heard the voices of the father and daughter outside, she couldn't hold it in any longer.
She hurried out, "Mingche, Yanyan--"
Yanyan was also excited all of a sudden, "Mom--"
She hadn't seen her mother for forty days!
Lin's father and brother-in-law Lin Yi also came out, their faces full of shock.
The neighbors were also surprised. Is this Lin Yan's man in the countryside? He came here a few years ago, but didn't leave a deep impression.
It turns out that he is so good-looking and so generous!
