Chapter 127 Three People Traveling Together
Meng Qingyin thought about it and understood. Anti-skid tires can prevent cars from being affected by icy and snowy roads, allowing players to drive at normal speeds.
This way, you can find more supply crates, and most players certainly wouldn't want to give up the opportunity to find more supply crates.
Moreover, although 007 has now humanely lowered the target mileage, no one knows if it will be increased again someday.
To be on the safe side, I bought anti-skid tires.
All day long, after finishing her enforcement duties for the day, Meng Qingyin spent her time selling anti-skid tires.
When she arrived at Lijia Village, it was already 11 p.m.
Meng Qingyin had already told Uncle Li in advance that she was going, but she said the time was tomorrow, because she knew she would arrive late and was afraid that Uncle Li would have to wait too long.
So she simply parked the car at the entrance of Lijia Village, thinking she could enter the village tomorrow, since there was still plenty of time for the mission.
After washing up, Meng Qingyin went to bed.
In the middle of the night, she vaguely heard the sound of a car engine.
Is anyone still driving this late?
Meng Qingyin got up, only to find that Xue Tongzi had already jumped down from the upper bunk, his chubby body blocking her way in a protective stance.
The little one heard the noise outside, twitched his ears, and quickly closed his eyes and fell asleep again.
"Don't be nervous." Seeing the little one relax, Meng Qingyin comforted Xue Tongzi and looked out the window through the peas.
A bright beam of headlights shone from afar on the highway behind us.
The car's color was not visible in the darkness. Only when the car got closer did Meng Qingyin realize that it was a familiar SUV.
It's Chen Leying's car.
Meng Qingyin said to Xue Tongzi, "He's my friend, there's no danger. Go to sleep."
Hearing her say that, Yukito climbed back to the top bunk.
Chen Leying clearly recognized Meng Qingyin's car, and the SUV slowly came to a stop.
A few seconds later, she sent a message: "Is your destination also Lijia Village?"
Mengmeng: "Yes, but I arrived too late, so I didn't go into the village."
Chen Leying: "Okay, let's do it together tomorrow."
Mengmeng: "Okay, see you tomorrow."
Chen Leying: "Mm."
Meng Qingyin turned off the chat and quickly fell asleep again.
The next morning, Meng Qingyin woke up, washed up briefly, put on warm clothes, and got off the bus.
She then discovered that behind the SUV, there was another familiar-looking old-man's car parked.
When did the Qin wine arrive?
The next moment, Qin Jiu got out of the car yawning and met Meng Qingyin.
With tears in her eyes, she raised her hand to greet him: "Good morning, Mengmeng."
He had barely finished speaking when he let out another big yawn.
Meng Qingyin: "Did you drive here at night?"
Qin Jiu could barely keep her eyes open. "Yes, I live quite far from here, so I had to drive here overnight. Luckily, I made it in time."
The two were talking when Chen Leying came down from there.
She glanced at Qin Jiu and said, "Let's go, let's turn in the mission first."
Then go about your business.
Qin Jiu plopped back into the car: "Let's go, let's hurry up and hand in the mission, I need to catch up on some sleep."
Meng Qingyin jogged back to the train, started the engine, and drove away.
After starting the car, Meng Qingyin belatedly remembered that the last time she came to Lijia Village, the car couldn't drive into the village.
Last time, she parked her car on the side of the road and walked into the village.
How come this time... the car can drive straight into the village?
Before she could figure it out, the car had already arrived at its destination, in front of Li the blacksmith's house.
The gate was open, but there was no one in the yard.
Meng Qingyin got out of the car, went to the door, and called out, "Uncle Li, are you home?"
A moment later, Li the blacksmith came running out of the kitchen wearing an apron and holding a spatula, his face beaming with joy. "Hey, I'm here, come in quickly."
Seeing Chen Leying and Qin Jiu behind Meng Qingyin, Li the blacksmith was slightly surprised: "Are these your friends?"
Meng Qingyin: "Yes, but we're all here to deliver your goods."
Li the blacksmith was even more surprised, "So you were the bodyguard this time."
After saying that, he glanced at the kitchen, and as he ran back, he said, "Oh dear, don't let my food burn! You guys put the goods in the yard, I'll sign for them as soon as I'm done cooking!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he ran into the kitchen, where the sound of stir-frying could be heard.
Meng Qingyin and the other two neatly arranged their respective boxes in the courtyard.
Uncle Li poked his head out of the kitchen window: "Xiao Meng, you and your friends haven't had breakfast yet, have you? Stay and have some, I'll have another soup ready soon!"
Meng Qingyin's original intention in escorting the goods was to visit Uncle Li, so she didn't refuse when she heard this. "Okay, I've been craving your braised pork rib noodles ever since I had them last time."
Li the blacksmith beamed with joy: "Haha, I'm glad you like it. How about this, I'll make you some more braised pork rib noodles for lunch, so you can take it home and eat it!"
Meng Qingyin was both amused and exasperated: "No need to trouble yourself, Uncle Li. I'm already very satisfied to be able to taste your cooking again."
Upon hearing this, Uncle Li tossed the wok even more vigorously.
Meng Qingyin suddenly felt someone tug at her sleeve. She turned around and saw Chen Leying.
"What's wrong?" Meng Qingyin asked, puzzled.
Chen Leying seemed a little uncomfortable. "I won't eat here."
Meng Qingyin: "Is there anything else?"
Chen Leying: "It's nothing..."
Meng Qingyin suggested to her, "Then why don't you stay and eat? It's Uncle Li's kind gesture, would you do me the honor?"
Chen Leying was somewhat conflicted, but ultimately didn't say anything more.
Qin Jiu was already so sleepy she could barely keep her eyes open, but the aroma of food in the kitchen instantly chased away her drowsiness, and her face was full of anticipation.
Soon, Li the blacksmith had prepared breakfast: fluffy white steamed buns, crispy scallion pancakes, golden-brown fried dumplings, steaming hot garlic sprouts with scrambled eggs, crispy and spicy pickled radish strips, and fragrant seafood porridge, filling the table with delicious flavor.
Just looking at it makes my mouth water.
"It's a simple meal, but please help yourselves. I'll cook you a big meal for lunch!" Li the blacksmith said cheerfully.
"This is rudimentary?!" Qin Jiu exclaimed. "I haven't had a meal like this in ages since I came here!"
Li the blacksmith smiled, his eyes crinkling. "Haha, don't wait any longer, let's start eating!"
As he spoke, fearing that the three young people would feel awkward, he took the lead and picked up a fried dumpling with his chopsticks.
Seeing him pick up his chopsticks, the three of them also picked up their chopsticks and started eating!
Even the usually heavy-flavored kid enjoyed the food made by Li the blacksmith and ate several steamed buns in a row.
Everyone ate until their bellies were full; they hadn't had such a hot, home-cooked meal in a long time.
Seeing that they were enjoying their meal, Li the blacksmith also developed an appetite and ate more than usual.
In addition, food tastes especially good when there are many people around, so overall, this meal was very satisfying.
After eating and drinking their fill, the three of them took turns clearing the dishes and washing them clean.
Li the blacksmith accepted their goods, and the three of them received their rewards for completing the mission one after the other.
