The next morning, Lin Qinglan got up early and prepared to leave for the army.
Lin Qingmei took out the manufacturing drawings of the mobile phone that she had prepared long ago and handed them to her, and whispered: "Lan Zi, this is the manufacturing drawings of the mobile phone. You must be careful when sending it to the research institute."
"How do you have so many manufacturing drawings of mobile phones, even big brothers." Lin Qinglan was stunned after reading the manufacturing drawings that Lin Qingmei gave her. How could her best friend be so awesome?
"Don't you have it in your hand? Have you forgotten that in the first year of the apocalypse, we used steamed buns to exchange for many blueprints from others. Among those blueprints were the manufacturing blueprints for mobile phones and tractors. Have you forgotten?"
"I remember now. At that time, I changed more than you!" Lin Qinglan slapped her head. Her memory was really bad. She forgot everything she saw.
At this time, Lin Zheng also got up. His eyes were red, and it was obvious that he did not sleep well last night.
He ran to Lin Qinglan and handed her a small cloth bag. "Sister, these are the candies I left behind. Take them with you to the army."
Lin Qinglan felt warm in her heart and rubbed his head. "No need, my elder sister doesn't like candy, so I'll leave it for you!"
"No, sister, you have to keep this candy for yourself. Shi Tou said that adults are lying when they say they don't like candy. They just want to save the candy for the children." Lin Zheng stubbornly wanted to stuff the candy into Lin Qinglan's arms. He had grown up and would not believe that there were people who didn't like candy.
"Lan Zi, just accept it! You raised him to this age, it's only natural for him to give you something as a filial gift." Lin Qingmei never thought there was anything wrong with a younger brother showing filial piety to his sister.
"Xiao Zheng, when I'm not home, you have to listen to your second sister and don't be willful, okay?"
"Don't worry, sis. I will be good."
Just as the three siblings were hugging each other and reluctant to separate, Wu Hao's voice came from outside the door. "Niece Qinglan, are you ready? We are leaving soon."
"Wait a moment, I'll be out soon." Lin Qinglan responded and went into the room to get her luggage.
Lin Qingmei and Lin Zheng sent Lin Qinglan and Wu Hao to the bus station in the county town. They only left after seeing Lin Qinglan and Wu Hao got on the bus.
The last time she borrowed He Xufeng's bicycle, he never returned it. After giving the bicycle away, Lin Qingmei had to deliver the bicycle to the government office building to return it to He Xufeng.
Lin Zheng was short and could only fit one foot under the bar of the 28-inch bicycle. He then limped as he began to ride.
Lin Qingmei was almost dying of laughter as she followed behind. Why did Lin Zheng look so funny riding a bicycle?
Lin Qingmei held back her laughter as she walked to the government office building. After parking her bicycle, she headed towards He Xufeng's office.
Today, He Xufeng knew that Lin Qingmei was coming to see him, so he deliberately did not go out for work. He is now sitting at his desk, busy with his work.
"Secretary He, do you have time now?" Seeing that He Xufeng was busy, Lin Qingmei moved a chair in front of him and sat down.
Seeing that the person coming was Lin Qingmei, He Xufeng quickly stood up. "You're here. I thought you wouldn't come so early. You two should sit down and rest for a while. When I finish my work, we'll go to the state-owned restaurant for dinner."
"No, you go ahead and do your work. I'm here to return your bike to you. Thank you for lending it to us before."
"It's just a bicycle, you don't have to be so polite to me. You must be hungry now since you got up early today. I have some snacks here that will just fill your stomach." He Xufeng took out a box of snacks from the drawer and placed it in front of Lin Qingmei. He had someone bring this snack from the city specifically.
Lin Qingmei tasted a bite of the dessert, and her eyes lit up immediately. "It's delicious. I've never eaten such exquisite desserts before."
He Xufeng looked at her satisfied expression, and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously. "If it's delicious, eat more. I'll buy more after you finish eating."
"Wow! What is this? Is it delicious?" Lin Zheng who was standing aside was really angry and anxious. Every time his second sister was with He Xufeng, they would never notice that there was another him. Could it be that he really had no sense of existence?
"It's delicious. Do you want to eat some?" He Xufeng was about to open the box and give Lin Zheng a piece, but Lin Qingmei reached out to stop him.
"Don't feed the kid so many sweets. He has already lost several teeth. It will be lunchtime soon, so it won't hurt if he goes hungry for a while."
"Second sister, I'll just eat one piece. I promise you, I will eat less sweets in the future." Lin Zheng said this without any confidence. The main reason why he had cavities on his teeth was because he liked to eat sweets.
During this period, there was no shortage of sugar at home, and he would secretly get up every night to eat two candies before going to bed.
"Don't worry, you won't have any more candy to eat in the future. Look at how many cavities you have. You'll cry when you can't get a tooth out. I'll help you with forceps later."
"Wow, second sister, you are so scary. How could you imagine using dental forceps to pull out a tooth?" Lin Zheng was so scared that he quickly covered his mouth and didn't dare to ask for snacks anymore.
He Xufeng felt a little guilty and didn't dare to speak. A large part of the candies that Lin Zheng had eaten recently were provided by him.
He meant well, thinking that Lin Zheng was Lin Qingmei's younger brother so he treated him better, but he didn't expect that his good intentions would backfire in the end.
After a while, He Xufeng finished his work and took Lin Qingmei and Lin Zheng to the state-owned restaurant.
On the way, Lin Zheng saw someone selling candied haws on the roadside and looked at them with eager eyes. He Xufeng was about to go over to buy some when he saw Lin Qingmei's warning eyes. He remembered what Lin Qingmei had just said and stepped back again.
He Xufeng went to a state-owned restaurant and ordered a boiled chicken, a roast duck, and a dish of Chinese cabbage with garlic sauce.
When the food was served, Lin Zheng immediately started to wolf it down. He was really hungry today. He had already finished his meal at this time.
The roast duck in the state-owned restaurant is quite delicious, with fragrant skin and tender meat. Lin Qingmei fell in love with the taste after eating it once. She also likes boiled chicken and garlic choy sum.
Seeing Lin Qingmei and her brother eating so happily, He Xufeng's appetite also whetted, and he even ate half a bowl of rice more today.
After lunch, Lin Qingmei took Lin Zheng home, and He Xufeng also went home to continue his morning work.
