Chapter 322 Old Leader

Liu Yinyin smiled but said nothing.

Not long after, Gu Cheng came down and they had to hurry back to the island.

Before leaving, Song Yumei stuffed a red envelope into Gu Yanyan's pocket and told them, "Don't refuse. This is a gift from the elders. You have to accept it. Come back next time when you have time."

Only after getting on the boat did Liu Yinyin open the red envelope. Inside the red envelope was not money, but a pair of silver bracelets.

No wonder the red envelopes feel heavy.

Silver bracelets at that time were not cheap. Liu Yinyin considered: "...Is it too expensive?"

Gu Cheng didn't expect Song Yumei to give a silver bracelet to Gu Yanyan, but since he had already accepted it, it was not easy to return it.

After thinking for a while, Gu Cheng said, "Keep it for now and return it when you have the chance."

Even if you don't return the silver bracelet, you have to return something of similar value.

Liu Yinyin put the silver bracelet in her bag and said casually, "I heard from Aunt Song that her daughter is about the same age as me. When she gets married, I will make her a silver bracelet too."

Gu Cheng thought of something and couldn't help asking, "...did your aunt tell you that her daughter is getting married?"

Liu Yinyin shook her head slightly: "No, she just said that she was anxious about her daughter's marriage, it should be soon, what's the matter, is there any problem?"

Gu Cheng didn't say anything, just said: "It's no problem, you will know when you have the chance to meet her in the future."

Liu Yinyin: “…”

After returning to the island and spending the whole day there, the family did not go out again.

Two days later, Mrs. Liu was coming, and Brother Liu had already gone to Qing City to pick her up in the morning.

That day, Liu Yinyin and Zheng Qiangwei switched shifts.

She will not come to work this afternoon. She had told Brother Liu Er in the morning that she had to prepare some food to entertain Sister Liu Er.

Knowing that someone from Liu Yinyin's family was coming, Aunt Wang specially left her a fresh large silver carp and a basket of long bamboo clams, weighing almost two kilograms.

Aunt Wang asked, "Is that enough? If not, come to my house and get some more?"

Liu Yinyin said hurriedly: "That's enough, thank you, Auntie."

In the afternoon, Liu Yinyin went to the beach, where Gu Cheng taught them how to swim.

Just like last time, tie a rope around your waist and tie the other end of the rope to the boat.

After Liu Yinyin tied up her long hair, she jumped into the water.

After swimming a little further, Liu Yinyin put on the diving goggles and breathing tube she bought from the system...

She plans to catch more seafood today.

Swimming in water is a very enjoyable thing.

Liu Yinyin swam in the sea for a long time before starting to look for seafood.

Crabs, shrimps, abalone, whatever big ones I see are put into my pocket.

I don't know how much time passed, but the bag could no longer hold any more.

Liu Yinyin went ashore carrying her things.

She rode up on her bicycle with her coat hanging on the top.

Liu Yinyin put on her coat and rode her bike home.

If nothing goes wrong, Mrs. Liu will arrive on the island around 5:30. It's already past 2 o'clock.

Liu Yinyin took a shower and started preparing dinner.

In the evening, we have to invite Brother Liu over to join us. Including the two children, there will be seven of us having dinner together.

Liu Yinyin prepared eight dishes.

Crab meat with vermicelli, bamboo clams with green onions and ginger, fish head with chopped pepper, braised prawns, steamed abalone with vermicelli and garlic sauce, and a large plate of boiled fish.

There are two vegetarian dishes, stir-fried lettuce with garlic and stir-fried bok choy with mushrooms.

The staple food is white flour steamed buns.

When we were almost done with the work, Brother Liu came with his people.

"Little sister, is this your home? It's so grand." Mrs. Liu had never seen such a house before.

In my hometown, the supply and marketing cooperatives in the county are all one-story bungalows.

"Second sister-in-law, come in quickly." Liu Yinyin led them in. "The food will be ready soon. Please sit for a while."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Liu wanted to go to the kitchen: "I'll help you..."

Liu Yin hurriedly stopped him and said, "No need, sister-in-law. You must be tired after sitting in the car for such a long time. You should take a rest first."

I haven't seen you for a few months. Mrs. Liu has become thinner and darker. Maybe it's because she's been running around for a few days, her complexion doesn't look well.

Mrs. Liu sighed, "Taking the train wasn't tiring at all, but taking the boat this afternoon was exhausting. If I hadn't taken seasickness pills, I would have come back lying down by now."

She had just vomited violently on the boat and her legs were still a little weak.

Liu Yinyin smiled and said, "So you just sit down and take a rest. There are fruits and water on the table. If you want to eat, take them yourself..."

Mrs. Liu watched Liu Yinyin enter the kitchen and couldn't help but look around the room.

Afterwards, he whispered to Brother Liu: "Sister-in-law is really in luck. Look how big this house is. There are so many furnitures and even a toilet... This is the first time I've seen a toilet built inside a house."

She was shocked when she just went in to wash her hands. There was not only a slight odor in the toilet, but she could also smell a faint fragrance.

Sister Liu sighed twice: "My sister-in-law lives her life more elegantly than the people in the city..."

Brother Liu smiled and said, "Don't call it a toilet. People in the city call it a restroom."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Liu glared at him and said unhappily, "That's what everyone in the village calls you. Look, you've only been working for a few months, how come you've forgotten the things from your hometown?"

Brother Liu was too lazy to talk to her: "Anyway, don't say anything when you return to the village. I just want my little sister to live a good life."

"Do I need you to tell me that?" Mrs. Liu pulled a banana for Liu Yeye to eat. She was not a person without sense of propriety.

Mrs. Liu wished that her sister-in-law and her family lived a good life, not to mention that they had arranged a job for Brother Liu.

When her daughter-in-law grows up, she might be able to ask her brother-in-law to help.

Mrs. Liu would never offend such a good relative.

Not long after, Gu Cheng came back with Gu Yanyan, and Brother Liu also came with them.

When she saw the food on the table, Mrs. Liu was surprised again, but fortunately she didn't say anything.

After sitting on the train for two days, she was already very hungry, so the most important thing was to fill her stomach first.

After dinner, Mrs. Liu was not in a hurry to leave.

He took out two bags from the bag and gave them to Liu Yinyin: "My parents asked me to bring them to you. They are not expensive things. They are just some dried vegetables and mushrooms that my mother dried."

Liu Yinyin asked hurriedly: "How is things at home? Are parents in good health?"

Mrs. Liu: "Everything is fine, but she is very busy. There are several babies at home, and mother can't get away at all. Otherwise, she could come along to take a look."

Fortunately, at that time food rations were distributed according to work, otherwise, with so few people at home, we would not be able to handle the work in the fields.

Mrs. Liu added, "The village is doing well this year. It should be a bumper year. Thanks to you for lending the grain and seeds to the village. Otherwise, it would have been a big loss."

"When I came here, the village chief asked me to tell you that he would send you some food when the autumn harvest comes."
