Chapter 140 Tea
Their daughter's gaze was too scorching, and Jun Yu and Song Xirong didn't know what to say. With their son around, they could always be reliable.
The next day, Jun Qiulan used her ID card to apply for a secondary phone card.
Jun Shuwan has had the phone for a long time, and except for those functions that require the Internet, she has mastered all the others.
"Remember, if you have any problem, call your brother."
Jun Qiulan had something else to do today, so he could only arrange for Liu Yue to take her younger sister out shopping.
He has a straight male aesthetic, and the clothes he buys for his family are relatively ordinary. His sister is a little girl, so she should wear beautiful clothes.
When Liu Yue came over, there were stars in her eyes.
"Oh my god, Sister Wan'er is much prettier than in the photo."
Moreover, although Jun Shuwan looks similar to Jun Qiulan, they are of different genders, so the comparability is not high.
Liu Yue even thought that if her sister also chose the entertainment industry, she would probably become extremely famous even if she was a silly beauty.
The most important thing is that my sister is only sixteen years old now. She has not grown up yet and has not reached the peak of her beauty.
Jun Shuwan was a little shy. People in her hometown were more reserved when praising someone's appearance, and she had never heard such straightforward words.
"I'll trouble Sister Yue today."
Liu Yue was completely captivated by her. "It's not a big deal, it's not a big deal. Once we get to the street, just tell me what you want, what you want to buy, and what you want to see."
"good."
Seeing that the two sisters got along well, Jun Qiulan felt more at ease.
My parents have already returned to ancient times.
Firstly, I want to tell my grandfather and others about the situation here.
Secondly, they have been hiding for so long, and they have accumulated a lot of things.
Even though there are other people taking care of it, you still have to go and check it out in person.
The crisis in the border town was temporarily resolved.
It was on this day that winter officially arrived in the border town.
The heavy snowfall indicates that this year's drought has come to an end.
The people in the border town did not care about the cold weather. They brought the snow back home and boiled it into hot water. The whole family first took a comfortable hot bath.
Although the drought has eased this summer and people haven't died of drought, the only solution is the water problem. If people want to wash thoroughly and cleanly, they are still reluctant to waste water resources.
Now that it's snowing, there are fewer worries.
It's just a matter of wasting more firewood.
There was a smart man who didn't take a bath first. He went to the city to sell a cart of firewood and bought some supplies that had been in short supply for a long time for his family before returning home.
As a result, the soaps produced in the girls' school sold well.
In the past, when the house was short of some small things, no one was willing to buy any. We were all worried because we were afraid that it would not snow in winter, and then the next year would be even more difficult.
Even if there were sweet potatoes, I'm afraid there wouldn't be much chance of survival.
It's okay now.
Everyone began to relax and live a good life.
Many people recalled this year carefully. Apart from the problem of water shortage, their lives seemed to be better.
First, educated youth went to the countryside and brought them the spark of knowledge.
The aunts and uncles in the village rarely have this opportunity. Even if they cannot write, they can at least recognize a few words.
When you walk out the door, you won’t be blind anymore.
Occasionally, when they see unfamiliar words on the street, such as the sign of a certain store, they can discuss it with each other or ask others.
After a while, the learning atmosphere became very strong.
Secondly, several schools were opened. Although the number of students enrolled was limited, anyone with a discerning eye could see that this had brought about tremendous changes in their lives.
There is also high-yield grain. When the harvest is good next year, they will plant one acre of sweet potatoes and the rest of the land with conventional grains. They will never go hungry again.
…
There are so many changes this year.
There are also many smart people among the people.
These so-called changes, if you follow the clues, seem to be related to the demoted deposed crown prince.
I was shocked at first when I thought that they might rebel. After all, war could result in casualties, and the border town was not peaceful to begin with.
But then they thought of the changes this year.
The balance in my heart has begun to tilt.
They can live like this during the drought years. After a few years of development, won’t the people in their border towns live a life like gods?
For ordinary people, all they want in life is to have enough food and clothing.
They will follow whoever can lead them to such a good life.
In Fengcheng, Liu Yue took Jun Shuwan for a whole day stroll in the city.
Large warehouse-style supermarkets, shopping malls, bookstores, and even Fengcheng’s film and television base.
There was no rest all day.
Liu Yue was still teasing Jun Shuwan: "Before, I thought that the delicate ladies in ancient times might not be able to walk so much, but now it seems that girls really don't know how to get tired when they go shopping."
Jun Shuwan was still a little shy, but because she was wearing a mask, one could only see her happiness and gratitude from her eyes.
"Thank you Sister Yue for today."
Liu Yue waved her hand. "Wan'er, you're too polite. How long are you going to stay here? If I have nothing else to do tomorrow, I'll take you somewhere else."
Jun Shuwan smiled and said, "I won't go out tomorrow. I have to go back to my hometown."
What she had seen throughout the day was enough for her to digest for a long time.
In the past, I only knew about the world from my brother and various video materials. It was only after I went out and explored it myself that I realized how unique this world is.
Peace, freedom, equality...
All the beautiful words in this world are not too much.
Moreover, my brother and sister Yue repeated many times that this is just a small city, not developed enough, not rich enough.
Such heights are probably difficult for them to reach in this lifetime.
In short, they should develop in this direction.
She also had to take back the photos she took today and the things she bought, and talk to her parents and grandfather.
Besides, the identity issue has not been resolved yet. As an illegal resident, it is better for her not to appear in public.
After all, my brother is a public figure, and Sister Liu Yue is his assistant, so they might also be noticed. Just like today when they had lunch in the mall, they had to specially find a restaurant with private rooms.
She looks so much like her brother.
Even though I was being willful today, I must not cause any trouble for my brother.
After a busy day, Jun Qiulan took a taxi back and saw a lot of bags at home.
Liu Yue had just ordered milk tea and was chatting happily with his younger sister. The variety show he had previously appeared on was still playing on TV.
A smile unconsciously appeared on Jun Qiulan's face.
"How are you feeling today?"
"That feels so good, brother."
Jun Shuwan's eyes were sparkling.
Jun Qiulan: "Once your identity is processed, Wan'er can go wherever she wants."
Jun Shuwan nodded vigorously, "I invited Sister Yue to visit my hometown, is that okay, brother?"
"Of course." Jun Qiulan agreed without hesitation.
I had asked Liu Yue for help before and had already taken her through time.
At that time, the threat of Jin Guojiu was still there, and even he himself had to hide, so naturally he didn't dare to take anyone out.
I'm afraid of accidents.
Now that Jin Guojiu has been "executed", the border town is their territory and the war has reached its final stage. As long as they don't go to remote places, stay at home as a guest, or go around the city, it is relatively safe.
In particular, Wan'er's reputation in the border town is even better than that of him, the so-called leader.
Liu Yue was also very excited: "Then boss, please remember to bring me back."
Jun Qiulan couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry, I have to go back every day. I have a lot of things to do over there."
"That's perfect. I'll help you guys see if there's anything you can do to fill in the gaps."
Liu Yue helped to move the compressed biscuits that day, and after listening to the conversation between Jun Qiulan and General Huo, he basically got a general idea of the situation.
Jun Qiulan smiled and said, "Thank you very much, Sister Yue. I have to be busy with my final scenes these days. You can go to ancient times to play. Just think of it as a few days' vacation for you. But you have to arrange your own affairs."
"I understand." Liu Yue remembered that Jun Qiulan's phone was often unreachable. At first, she didn't know why, but later she guessed it and felt happy.
Maybe it's because good things happen and people are in high spirits? Good luck has come again.
Within two days, Master Qingheng called him and told him that the identities of his family had all been settled.
It is the identity of overseas Chinese.
To be precise, you will be considered a returned overseas Chinese and can come back to restore your nationality.
This incident made Jun Qiulan's eyes light up.
He had heard Master Qingheng say before that since their family was large, it would be easier to obtain a foreign household registration, and he had also looked up some information.
Foreigners coming to China have to apply for a passport and visa, which is really troublesome.
If you move inland afterwards, there are still many procedures to go through.
I didn't expect that Master Qingheng was so powerful.
"Anyway, you need to pick up your family from abroad and fly them back to China. Someone will help you with the paperwork."
"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Master." Jun Qiulan suppressed his excitement and inquired, "Does your friend have any hobbies?"
Having helped them so much, I should at least express my gratitude.
Qing Heng thought for a moment and said, "Get him a few boxes of tea from your place. He really likes drinking tea."
"Okay." Jun Qiulan agreed immediately.
The household registration issue has been preliminarily resolved, but new problems arise.
Jun Qiulan was about to finish filming Yan Jing's movie and had originally planned to leave for Beijing.
In this situation, should we first sort out our identity issues?
When he goes to Beijing, he will send General Huo's family here, and someone will have to take care of them at home, which means they will inevitably have to travel here.
He can't be here all the time, and he's worried about making mistakes.
With legal identity, these problems can be easily solved.
After much deliberation, Jun Qiulan decided to consult Yan Jing.
Yan Jing pondered for a moment, "Let's go to Beijing first. Your assistant can help you take care of Fengcheng. Ask your assistant to help with the daily shopping and supplies. Let your parents try to reduce the possibility of going out, and your concerns will no longer be a concern."
Jun Qiulan thought about it and it made sense.
Yan Jing added, "If you go directly abroad to bring them back, you'll need someone to accompany you. There's a language barrier, and the people assigned there may not all be trustworthy. You'd better be careful. By the time you finish your business in Beijing, my film should have been finished as well."
He will accompany Jun Qiulan there when the time comes.
Jun Qiulan was a little unconvinced: "Even if there's a language barrier, we still have high technology. Besides, I've been studying English for so long, so daily communication shouldn't be a problem."
Yan Jing couldn't help laughing: "I know our Lanlan is the best, but the situation abroad is also complicated. Not every country speaks English, and the legal situation in each country is different."
Besides, Jun Qiulan has to bring a whole family here, go through customs, and take a plane. It's complicated. How can he make Yan Jing feel at ease if he is alone?
In Yan Jing's eyes, Jun Qiulan had not even been to many places in the country.
Jun Qiulan knew that Yan Jing was talking about practical issues. After considering it, he could only trouble Yan Jing to accompany him on another trip when the time comes.
"Talking about this between you and me will hurt feelings."
Jun Qiulan smiled, "Then what should I say?"
Yan Jing raised his eyebrows slightly, "Since you kissed me, take it as a thank you."
Jun Qiulan's ears turned red instantly.
During the period after they confirmed their relationship, they kissed a lot, but it was always Yan Jing who took the initiative to tease them.
no way.
Even if Jun Qiulan tried his best to learn to adapt to this world and get along with his partner more naturally like contemporary young people, some things were still too advanced for him.
Now that Yan Jing had brought it up on his own initiative, it seemed unreasonable for him not to express his feelings.
He closed his eyes, leaned over, and wanted to gently kiss Yan Jing's cheek.
Yan Jing was paying attention to his movements at all times. Just when Jun Qiulan's lips were about to approach his cheek, he turned his head very cunningly.
Right on, the kiss landed on Yan Jing's lips.
Jun Qiulan felt that the touch was wrong and subconsciously wanted to push it away.
But the back of his fateful neck had already fallen into Yan Jing's palm, which was gently held, and he was forced to endure Yan Jing's kiss.
This person...
Why do I feel like I'm addicted to kissing?
The two of them exchanged pleasantries, and after calming down, they pretended to talk about Jun Qiulan's last movie.
The character played by Jun Qiulan eventually died in the fire.
He was once the most noble young man in the capital, and he had his own pride.
After falling into the Jiaofangsi, he did many things that went against his conscience for revenge and even broke his own pride.
Great revenge will be taken in one day.
He also wants to leave this painful world with his pride.
Jun Qiulan sighed, "What does all this really mean? Being alive is more important than anything else."
Yan Jing felt a surge of heartache in his heart.
He knew that Jun Qiulan had a similar experience.
Jun Qiulan knew what he was thinking as soon as she saw his expression, and felt quite helpless.
"What you should be thinking about now is whether I can interpret this scene. After all, my ideas are so different from those of this noble young man."
Yan Jing really didn't know what to say.
"You're really bad at ruining the atmosphere."
He rarely complained.
With these two jokes, Yan Jing's mood did improve a lot.
No matter what the past was like, it is better now and the future will only be better.
"Oh, by the way, here are two boxes of tea. Can you bring them to Grandpa Yan for me?"
I had agreed before to get a few boxes of good tea for Grandpa Yan.
But the overall situation in this border town is like this. It was just a coincidence. He told his parents and asked them to pay attention, so he got a few boxes from the merchants.
Give two boxes to Grandpa Yan, and a few more boxes to Master Qingheng’s friends.
They had helped them so much, two boxes of tea were too insignificant.
Yan Jing nodded in agreement, "Don't worry, I will definitely bring it to you."
After a pause, he said, "Speaking of which, Grandpa mentioned that you should bring the calf back for an injection, and I helped you get away with it."
The cows grow too fast.
Maybe it will be broken when I bring it here.
Speaking of this, Jun Qiulan thought of another question.
"We were so busy that day moving supplies that we asked Sister Yue to come and help. I brought both of you across at once. What went wrong? Or did a mysterious force relax my restrictions?"
Yan Jing was also stunned.
That day he was only concerned about the pain. He had been busy all day, and then he did the hard work of moving things, so he was indeed a little tired.
I completely forgot about this question.
Fortunately, I was able to bring it over without any accidents.
Yan Jing was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.
Jun Qiulan added, "Later, when I brought my parents and little sister across the world, I subconsciously wanted to bring all three of them together. It was my father who reminded me, so I brought them here in two batches."
I don't know how restrictive this is.
Yan Jing pondered, "Could it be possible that after you reached the limit of leading others through time, this restriction was lifted?"
Jun Qiulan shook her head, "I don't think so."
If the restrictions were completely lifted, what if he went crazy and brought his army here?
There are definitely limitations, but I don’t know where these limits are.
Yan Jing: "No matter what, we should be more careful next time."
Jun Qiulan also nodded.
After all, it was a good thing for him.
In case of any accident, he can bring more people with him at a time, which will be safer.
"I have to go to Master Qingheng later, so I won't stay with you any longer today. You should go and do your own thing."
Yan Jing held him and kissed him for a while before letting him go.
Jun Qiulan brought tea up the mountain.
After winter came, the number of visitors to Qingfeng Temple decreased a little.
Maybe it’s because it’s too cold in the mountains.
Fortunately, the Taoist temple made a lot of money this year, and the facilities and equipment in the temple have become more complete.
When I entered the door, I met Senior Brother Sheng and chatted with him for a while. He said that he planned to expand the Taoist temple next year.
"This is a good thing." Jun Qiulan also planned to contribute some money.
Yan Jing helped him sell a bunch of jade artifacts, and he suddenly had more money in his hands.
When Jun Qiulan talked about this with Qingheng, Qingheng did not refuse.
In Qingheng's eyes, the little disciple has always been a part of the Taoist temple.
Jun Qiulan handed the tea to the master and said, "Please keep two boxes for yourself. I'll have to give the rest to the friend who helped me."
Qing Heng smiled and said, "Sure, no problem. I just happen to be planning to go down the mountain these days. Your Grandpa Yan calls me every day to harass me, asking me to go down and play chess with him. Humph, what a lousy chess player."
Jun Qiulan tried to suppress his laughter. Since both old people were terrible at chess, he didn't want to say much.
After everything was explained, Jun Qiulan didn't stay long, as he had a lot of things to do during this period.
So, Yan Jing forgot to bring the tea back that day. When he brought it back the next day, he saw that there were already several boxes of the same tea on his grandfather's tea table.
"This is?"
Yan Jing frowned slightly, and in a flash, he figured out the problem.
As he expected, Qingheng asked someone else to help with the identity of Jun Qiulan's family. This so-called other person was his grandfather.
Yan Jing sighed. This whole process was quite dramatic.
He put the two boxes of tea he brought back on the table.
"Lanlan gave it to you."
Yan Huai took a look and smiled at first, then he saw his grandson's expression.
Quite interesting.
"Do you know Jun Qiulan's background?"
Yan Huai is also a straightforward person and doesn't beat around the bush at all.
Yan Jing sat opposite the tea table, feeling a little nervous.
"Since Grandpa knows about this, please keep it a secret for him. It's not easy for him to struggle here alone."
Thinking back to the time when Jun Qiulan started out as an extra, because of her outstanding looks, many crews were reluctant to use extras who were too good-looking, for fear that they would steal the limelight from the leading actors.
So most of the time Jun Qiulan could only take on the dirtiest and most dangerous extra jobs.
The house we rented at the beginning was just a small studio in the urban village, or even an attic.
If she hadn't been photographed that time, Jun Qiulan probably wouldn't have thought about moving to another residential house in the community.
Yan Huai looked at his grandson and then clicked his tongue.
"Does your grandfather look like someone who speaks without restraint?"
In fact, he was quite conflicted.
Isn’t his origin a secret?
Even more serious than Jun Qiulan's secret.
He hesitated for a long time, "Has Jun Qiulan taken you there?"
Yan Jing also hesitated for a moment and didn't quite understand something.
Grandpa has a good relationship with Qingheng. In order to help Jun Qiulan and his family obtain their identities, Grandpa must know Jun Qiulan's background.
But what’s strange is that even though my grandfather is so old, he is so accepting?
Not surprised at all?
Even if he himself had not been taken to the ancient world by Jun Qiulan by accident, even if Jun Qiulan had told him in person, he would have been somewhat skeptical or confused.
Grandpa, what is this?
Yan Huai ignored his grandson's silence: "So he's been there. What's the situation there? What state are Jun Qiulan and the others in?"
The more Yan Jing listened, the more he felt something was wrong.
"Grandpa, you don't seem surprised at all."
Yan Huai was silent for a moment. "I've been corresponding with Mr. Yangeng for so long, I guessed a little bit."
It's not a lie.
Yan Jing smiled. Jun Qiulan's assistant could guess it, and his grandfather could also guess some of it through the correspondence with Jun Qiulan's father. Was he the only one who was stupid?
Yan Huai added, "You ordered a ton of salt and compressed biscuits earlier. Did something happen over there?"
Yan Jing’s actions could definitely not be hidden from Grandpa.
But he is an adult and knows how to do things in moderation, so his grandfather basically doesn't interfere in these trivial matters.
He replied, "Lanlan's situation over there isn't too good either. Her family is now in the border town, and they even experienced a drought this summer."
He didn't say much, mainly because he didn't know how much his grandfather knew.

It's Wednesday again. I don't want to go to work.
