Both the host and the guests enjoyed the dinner very much, and Song Fuyu even ate two more dumplings than usual.

When Xiaobai and the others were about to go home, she went back to her room and took out a pack of adult milk powder that Yan's mother had bought for her before she came back from Beijing and handed it to Yi Shanshan.

"Sister-in-law, this is too expensive. I can't accept it."

Yi Shanshan dodged repeatedly.

She was very happy to have such a sumptuous meal of dumplings in the evening. The milk powder supply and marketing cooperative sold it for more than three yuan a bag, and milk powder tickets were even scarcer, so she was really embarrassed to accept them.

Seeing that he refused to take it no matter what she said, Song Fuyu handed the milk powder to Yan Ziyuan and asked him to find a way to give it to Xiaobai.

Xiao Bai said that Shanshan had suffered a lot living with Grandma Yi and was severely malnourished. The doctor suggested that they take good care of the baby and feed it more nourishing food to prevent the mother from being unable to bear the pressure of pregnancy in the middle and late stages.

If she didn't take good care of herself in the early stages, it would not be easy for Yi Shanshan to have a child in the future.

She has spiritual spring water that can be used to regulate the body, but it is not convenient for her to use it. She can only give them some supplements that can be bought on the market as a little token of her and Yan Ziyuan's love. After all, in Ziyuan's heart, Xiaobai is no different from his own brother.

Xiaobai accepted the milk powder and said thank you to Song Fuyu with emotion.

"Sister-in-law, I'll buy the milk powder from you. I'll give you the money tomorrow."

"I also want to buy two packets of milk powder for Shanshan, but I just haven't gotten the milk powder tickets. I was thinking of going to the black market during my break this week to see if I could find some, but now I don't have to go."

"It's just a pack of milk powder. It would be unreasonable to give money for it. Consider it a gift from us to the baby."

"Next time you need milk powder tickets, come over. I still have a few here."

"Thank you, sister-in-law."

The eldest brother and sister-in-law always help him when he needs it.

Obviously, the eldest brother is only one year older than him, and his sister-in-law is five years younger than him, but every time he faces them, he feels like he is facing his own elders.

It is difficult to express his gratitude to the couple in simple words. The word "gratitude" has long been engraved in his heart.

"Let's go back first."

"Well, go back. Be careful and take good care of Shanshan. Come to us if you need anything."

"Yes, I will."

After Xiaobai's family of three left, Li Yunhua and his friends did not rush home. Instead, they sat in the yard and chatted together.

"How are the brothers Mingjun and Minglang now?"

"Mingjun is still the same in Xinshi. In September, the younger one was sent to primary school."

"He's been there for four years, right?"

"Well, it will be exactly four years at the end of the year."

"It's time to move to a new place. Discuss with Changsheng whether to return here or go directly to Jing City. You are only thirty now, so develop more connections."

"Okay, I'll talk to Changsheng."

"I'm not worried about Mingjun. He's always been calm and steady, and he listens to others. But I don't know what Minglang, that brat, wants to do."

"Before he married Feifei, his father-in-law had been planning to train him to be his successor, but I don't think he is interested in that. When I asked him what he wanted to do, he wouldn't say."

"You have been working in the Municipal Party Committee for six or seven years, right?"

"Isn't it? If his father-in-law knew, he would definitely be furious."

Song Fuyu had never met the two sons of the Li family. When she heard Aunt Wu talk about them, she felt that the two brothers had very different personalities.

The eldest child is willing to accept the opinions of his parents, while the younger brother is unwilling to be bound by any constraints.

"Why don't you let Minglang take a few days off and come back so you can have a good talk with him. If he doesn't want to talk to you, let Ziyuan talk to him. They are of similar age and have a good relationship, so he should be willing to talk."

"That's fine. I'll call him tomorrow and ask about his time."

"If he comes back, ask him to bring Feifei and Xinyue with him. The little ones are already three years old, and we two old guys haven't even seen them yet."

"I kind of miss her, too."

"The little one has a cheerful personality just like his father. Last time, he read us a new nursery rhyme he had learned on the phone. He also asked me and his grandfather to eat more every day and take good care of our health. He is so cute."

When talking about their little granddaughter, the expressions on Uncle Li and Aunt Wu's faces improved a lot, and they forgot the worries brought by their troubled son.

...........

At two o'clock on Thursday afternoon, a brand new black Haishi car stopped at the gate of the Yan family courtyard.

Yan Ziyuan took out the key and opened the driver's door.

"Wife, come out quickly, your car is back!"

I kept an eye on the condition of the car all day yesterday because I didn't want an outsider to drive their car for the first time.

It’s not that he wants to be the first to open it, but he knows Xiaoyu’s character very well.

She couldn't accept someone else using something that belonged to her. If it weren't for the fact that the car was to be picked up in Yu City, 200 kilometers away, and she had to take the 5:30 am bus, she would have even hoped to drive the car back herself.

Song Fuyu, who was in the house, heard the sound and ran out excitedly.

Wu Xingmin followed her out.

When Song Fuyu saw the shiny car at the door, he was very happy.

She finally became a car owner in this era!

"My little car, you're finally here! I've been waiting so long for you!"

Yan Ziyuan looked at his wife with amusement as she carefully touched her beloved car. They had only waited for two or three days, but she made it sound like they had been waiting for two or three years.

He watched a lot of videos about what happened fifty years later. In his wife's eyes, this car should be of very low quality. After all, the cars she drove before basically started at one million.

When she was choosing a car this time, she actually liked a car that cost 320,000 yuan. With her financial resources, she could easily buy 100 cars, let alone one.

After weighing various considerations, she finally chose a car worth 20,000 yuan, which is the one in front of you.

He could understand her considerations. Just as she said, in this special era, before doing many things, there were all kinds of things that were beyond one's control.

She is waiting for the arrival of reform and opening up.

Song Fuyu didn't know what Yan Ziyuan was thinking. At this moment, all she had eyes for was the new car in front of her.

After walking around the car, I found that the license plate had been installed for her, and it was a Beijing license plate.

After she got her driver's license, Yan's father had already taken care of all this for her, so she didn't have to worry about anything. She would go to the supply and marketing cooperative and call Yan's father to express her gratitude again.

"Since you like it so much, do you want to drive it yourself?"

Yan Ziyuan handed the key in his hand to her.

"No hurry, wait until grandpa and grandma finish their lunch break, then we'll go for a walk around town together."

"To celebrate Director Song's new car, I'd like to invite you to a state-owned restaurant for a big meal!"

In front of his family, Song Fuyu's joy was fully displayed on his face without any reservation.

"Then I have to order two big dishes today."

"No problem Uncle Wu, just order whatever you want. If two is not enough, you can order your share of my two dishes as well."

"Haha, OK!"

When Grandpa Yan and Grandma Yan woke up from their lunch break and saw the brand new car at the door, they were very happy.

"Our Xiaoyu is very promising. You are the first one in our family and among the younger generations we know to own a car."

If Grandpa Yan wasn't in Lu City at the moment, he would have wanted to go to the compound to publicize it.

At the beginning, many people gossiped about Xiao Yu and looked down on her. They thought that Yan Shun was old and confused for choosing a wife with such a poor family background for the best young man in the family.

The final result proved that he was not confused, and Xiao Yu was not like what others said.

She doesn't need to rely on her family background, she can create her own world.

Just based on this point, she is stronger than all the younger generations in the compound, including Ziyuan.
