After Vice Governor Liu had made all the arrangements, he set out for Nancheng County to pick up Liu Zhiquan. Along the way, he was filled with anticipation of seeing his grandson.
I haven’t seen my eldest grandson for almost half a month. I don’t know if he has grown taller or if he has eaten on time during this period?
At this time, Liu Zhiquan in Linjiawan was running around the village with a group of friends, having a great time. His body was covered in mud, but his face was filled with a bright smile.
It was not until Vice Governor Liu arrived in Nancheng County that he learned that his grandson had gone to the countryside.
"Vice Governor Liu, why didn't you call me when you came here? Xiao Zhiquan is still in the countryside and hasn't come back yet." When County Magistrate Wang saw Vice Governor Liu, he thought he had seen things.
"Zhiquan's grandmother keeps urging me to come every day. I will come to pick him up as soon as I finish my work. Don't be too nervous. I am here as Zhiquan's grandfather today. Just treat me as an ordinary person. Zhiquan is a naughty child. I am really sorry to trouble you during this period of time."
"Vice Governor Liu is joking. Zhiquan is a very well-behaved boy. Besides, little Zhiquan knows people and has been traveling with my secretary during this period." County Magistrate Wang was embarrassed to take credit for the work. Liu Zhiquan was rescued from human traffickers by He Xufeng and Lin Qingmei, and they were the ones who had been taking care of him during this period.
"Is the place where your secretary is on business far away? Can you ask someone to take us there? My driver is not familiar with Nancheng County, and I'm afraid he won't be able to find the place." Vice Governor Liu always felt uneasy when he didn't see his grandson, and he wished he could fly to his grandson right now.
"It's not far. I just happen to be going to Linjia Bay. I'll take you there! But it's almost time for dinner. How about we go after dinner?" County Magistrate Wang also wanted to see how the sea cucumber pond was doing, so he could just accompany Vice Governor Liu on that trip.
"Let's just have some noodles. I'll treat you to dinner when I pick Zhiquan up in the evening." Vice Governor Liu glanced at the driver who was touching his stomach. He had originally planned to go pick him up. Although he was anxious to see his grandson and not feel hungry, he couldn't let others starve with him!
County Magistrate Wang took Vice Governor Liu and the driver to the government cafeteria, had a bowl of noodles, and then drove to Linjia Bay.
At this time, Liu Zhiquan was playing with Lin Zheng in the yard, and he had no idea that his grandfather was on the way.
Lin Qingmei got off work a little late today. When she walked into the house, she saw two hungry children.
"Sister, I'm hungry."
"Sister Qingmei, I'm hungry."
"I'll go cook right away. How about fried eggs with leeks today?" Lin Qingmei was also very hungry, so she planned to make fried eggs with leeks and some stir-fried vegetables.
"I like scrambled eggs with leeks. I'll go to the sauerkraut jar and get some sauerkraut to stir-fry. I made porridge for lunch today." Lin Zheng really likes the sauerkraut made by his elder sister, and he always adds a bowl of porridge to it when he eats it.
"Come on! Go and help me cut some leeks first, I'll go wash the vegetables." Lin Qingmei said and went to wash the vegetables next to the well. The well at home was dug by Grandpa Lin when he was young. It was behind the old house. Later, when a new house was built, Lin Qingmei enclosed the well in the yard of the new house.
Lin Zheng had already picked the water spinach, and she just had to wash it and start stir-frying it.
After a while, Lin Zheng and Xiao Zhiquan came back with a bundle of leeks.
The chives at home were planted in a wooden barrel in the corner of the wall. Lin Qingmei often used her wood-related abilities to help them grow faster. Therefore, every chive in her home was green and lush, and there was no yellow leaf.
