Old Master Yan, who was sitting under the pavilion to rest, saw Yan Ning coming in and said with a smile:
"Ning girl is back. Did you have fun playing with your brother outside these two days?"
Yan Ning walked over with the cloth bag and said with a smile: "Grandpa, I had a lot of fun these two days!"
As she spoke, she took out the kilogram of Tieguanyin from the cloth bag and said, "Grandpa, this is the Tieguanyin tea I bought for you in Tong City."
When Mr. Yan heard the word Tieguanyin, he sat up instantly, "Tieguanyin? Is that the tea that is more valuable than gold?
My old man has never had such expensive tea."
Yan Ning smiled and said, "It's that Tieguanyin. It's expensive for a reason.
The tea brewed from it has a mellow and sweet taste, a long aftertaste, and a strong and lasting tea aroma.
Its tea leaves contain a variety of nutrients and medicinal ingredients, and drinking more is good for the body.
This tea has a musty smell after being stored for a long time, so don't be reluctant to drink it."
Old Master Yan smacked his lips while holding the tea leaves. "Then I'll go make some and try it now."
After saying that, he walked into the main room holding the tea leaves.
Yan Ning followed behind and walked in.
Old Mrs. Yan and Second Aunt were cooking in the kitchen.
Yan Ning walked in and called out, "Grandma, I'm back."
When Mrs. Yan heard the sound, she put down the vegetables she was picking and walked out of the kitchen.
Old Madam Yan: "Ms. Ning is back. Are you hungry? We'll have dinner soon."
"Grandma, I'm not hungry yet."
Yan Ning took out everything in the bag and put it on the table, "Grandma, this is the ten kilograms of brown sugar and two kilograms of cakes I bought from Tongshi Department Store.
And these five pounds of tissue paper are toilet paper. You can use this paper when you go to the toilet. I will buy more when you run out."
Old Mrs. Yan touched the tissue curiously. The paper was really soft.
Nowadays, who in the countryside can be so particular? They just use bamboo strips and tree leaves.
But this is a gift from her eldest granddaughter, and she can't let her down.
Mrs. Yan immediately said, "I'll put some in the bamboo basket at the door of the toilet later, and we'll use this at home from now on."
After saying this, Mrs. Yan picked up the ten kilograms of brown sugar again.
"Oh my goodness! Why did you buy so much brown sugar at once? If you can't finish it, it will get damp if you keep it for too long!"
Yan Ning: "Grandma, we can't finish it at home, you can use it as a gift later.
Brown sugar is so precious nowadays, giving it as a gift is very prestigious.”
Since she had already bought it, there was no way Mrs. Yan would let her return it.
She had to keep half a pound of the ten pounds of brown sugar in the sugar jar, and locked the rest in the cupboard.
The two pounds of pastries were novel in style and sweet in taste.
Old Mrs. Yan put it directly on the cabinet, and whoever wanted to eat it could take it themselves.
After cleaning up, Mrs. Yan went to the kitchen to cook.
Yan Ning went to the yard.
Old Master Yan had already brewed a pot of tea and was sitting under the pavilion chatting with Yan Guodong.
Yan Ning also sat over.
Old Master Yan poured her a cup of tea and said, "Ning girl, you should also taste the charm of this Tieguanyin."
Yan Ning picked up the teacup, and the aroma of tea filled his nose. The tea soup was clear, transparent, pure and fragrant.
She took a sip and found it slightly sweet, with a rich tea aroma and a mellow taste, followed by a faint orchid scent.
It’s worthy of being a tea that costs 800 yuan per pound.
Old Master Yan looked at Yan Ning and asked, "Ning girl, how does it taste?"
Yan Ning smiled and said, "The tea has a rich aroma, lingers on the palate, and tastes excellent."
Old Master Yan happily lay back in his rocking chair and quietly sipped his tea.
Yan Guodong looked at Yan Ning with a gentle expression and chatted with her.
"Xiao Ning, what has your elder brother taken you to these days?"
Yan Ning tightened his grip on the teacup and said calmly, "My eldest brother goes out every day to do his own things.
I met a primary school classmate in Tong City and wandered around there these past few days."
Yan Guodong gave her a meaningful look and said, "Don't let your elder brother lead you astray. You can't follow him to the places he goes.
If you need money, just tell me, or ask your eldest brother for it."
Yan Guodong knew what his nephew had been doing.
If it weren't for some things I had to take care of myself.
That kid always thought that he was being cautious and no one knew about it!
He received news yesterday that a large batch of high-quality rice and wheat noodles appeared in Tong City.
The processing plants in Jilin Province are currently unable to produce products of that quality.
After his investigation, he discovered that his nephew was among them.
He had to do something to cover up the incident.
Thinking that Yan Ning has been in Tongshi with her elder brother these days, she couldn't help but worry that she had encountered the same things.
Yan Ning looked at her uncle's all-seeing eyes and felt uneasy.
She nodded obediently, "I understand, uncle."
"The food is ready, come and eat!"
Just as the meal was ready, Old Lady Yan stood in the main room and called everyone to eat.
Yan Ning put down the teacup and went to the main room.
…
8:30 in the morning.
When Yan Ning got up and went out of the room to wash up.
It's rare to see my family members still at home at this time.
Yan Ning looked at Old Lady Yan, "Grandma, why are you all at home today? Aren't you going to work?"
Old Mrs. Yan was sitting in the yard, eating breakfast with a bowl in hand. "Today is a day off. The brigade usually works thirteen days and rests one day."
Yan Ning: "Is that so?"
Yan Ning thought that in this era, people were really like the donkeys in the production team, having to go to work every day!
