Li Qingyu and Zhao Lan were peeling peanuts in the room. Then they heard laughter and a woman's voice outside. They looked at each other and left the room curiously.

As soon as they came out, they saw He Cheng talking intimately with a woman.

The girl has fair skin and a pretty face. Her big eyes are clear and bright, as if they can see deep into people's hearts. Her lips are rosy and plump, slightly upturned, and she seems to show a brilliant smile inadvertently, which makes people feel relaxed and happy. Her temperament is elegant and beautiful, like a blooming flower, which makes people unforgettable at first sight.

Li Qingyu's heart tightened. Who is this woman? Was this person there in her previous life? Why didn't she have any impression of her at all? But if she didn't appear in her previous life, why did she appear here in this life? What was going on? ?

Li Qingyu was anxious to find out her identity, so he stepped forward and asked, "He Zhiqing, who is this?"

He Cheng: "This is my friend Su Ran. Su Ran, these are Li Qingyu and Zhao Lan from our factory. They are also educated youth from Qinghe Brigade."

Su Ran smiled at them, "Hello, I'm Su Ran."

Li Qingyu was even more confused. Who was this? She was sure that she had never seen this person in her previous life, but why was this person who had never appeared in her previous life here now? ? Was this still the same world as in her previous life? She felt that her worldview had collapsed.

Li Qingyu rushed into the room in disbelief. She needed to calm down and sort things out.

Zhao Lan saw Li Qingyu running back to the house with a pale face, thinking that she was upset because she saw He Cheng being intimate with another girl.

She forced a smile and explained on behalf of her good sister: "I'm sorry, Comrade Su, Qingyu is not feeling well today. I didn't mean to be rude."

Su Ran raised an eyebrow, "It's okay."

Zhao Lan: "I'm so sorry, I'll go in and see her, Comrade Su, see you next time."

Su Ran: "Okay."

After Zhao Lan and Li Qingyu left, the three people in the yard were silent for a while.

Seeing that it was getting late, Su Ran said softly, "You guys get busy. I'll go back first." Then she reminded He Cheng again, "He Cheng, don't forget to eat."

He Cheng nodded with a smile, "I will definitely not forget it."

Su Ran: "Yeah."

After saying that, he waved to the two of them and left.

He Cheng looked at her leaving back and curled the corners of his lips.

Wang Kaixuan clicked his tongue twice, "You're still looking at me when there's no one around. If you keep looking, I'll turn it into the 'Wife-Looking Rock'."

He Cheng retracted his gaze, glanced at Wang Kaixuan and warned, "Don't talk nonsense." Although he liked to hear these words, he didn't care if it would have a bad influence on others, but what if it affected Su Ran.

Wang Kaixuan rolled his eyes at him and said, "I'm not stupid. I just said it in front of you. Look how scared you are."

He Cheng didn't say anything. He took the paper bag in his hand and took a look. It turned out to be dried meat and mushroom sauce. When his eyes touched the mushroom sauce in the glass jar, the smile on the corner of his lips became bigger. It was self-evident who prepared this.

After reading it, He Cheng was about to put it away when Wang Kaixuan leaned over and when he saw what was in the bag, he exclaimed in amazement, "Miss Su is so generous, she has so much flesh."

He joked: "You said we were just ordinary friends~"

He Cheng coughed lightly and said nothing. He folded the paper bag, put it on the table beside him, and continued to work.

Wang Kaixuan looked at He Cheng who had returned to work, and silently complained in his heart that he was a repressed and introverted person. He kept his thoughts to himself, and it was unknown when he would be able to catch up with his sweetheart.

Su Ran left the oil press factory and walked slowly back home. When she got home, Grandma Jiang had already prepared dinner. She and Grandpa Jiang were sitting on the kang, listening to the radio and waiting for her.

When Grandma Jiang saw her granddaughter coming back, the first thing she said was not to show concern for her, but to ask, "Ran Ran, have you delivered the things to Xiao He?"

Su Ran took a sip of water and replied, "I sent it over. How could I forget about it?"

Grandma Jiang smiled with satisfaction, "That's good, go wash your hands, it's time to eat."

When Su Ran came back from washing her hands, Grandpa Jiang had already served the food. After Su Ran sat down, she picked up a piece of cold cucumber with chopsticks. The sour and sweet taste was refreshing and the heat in her body subsided a lot. One has to eat more cold dishes in summer, yyds!

Seeing Su Ran eating cucumbers, Grandma Jiang knew that she was suffering from summer heat again. Seeing her thin shoulders, Grandma Jiang gave her a few pieces of meat with concern, "Ran Ran, don't eat cucumbers all the time. Eat more meat. If you don't, it will go bad tomorrow."

Su Ran knew that Grandma Jiang's fear that the meat would go bad was just an excuse to get her to eat more. She smiled and nodded, then finished the meat in the bowl with the cucumber she had just picked up.

After dinner, the three of them sat in the yard to enjoy the cool air. When Su Ran came, he planted a lot of mint in the yard, so there were no mosquitoes.

In the summer evening, a cool breeze blows, and the occasional sound of children playing can be heard outside the wall, which is particularly conspicuous among the cicadas' chirping.

Su Ran was lying on the recliner, fanning herself with a palm-leaf fan, looking so leisurely. She now had a deep understanding of Tao Yuanming's idea of ​​returning to the countryside, especially the line "After being caged for a long time, it is finally possible to return to nature". Who could not love the leisurely and comfortable life in the countryside?

When Grandma Jiang saw her granddaughter's funny look, she winked at her husband. When Grandpa Jiang saw this, he smiled helplessly. His granddaughter's laziness was a bit like his.

Grandpa Jiang: "Ranran, are you busy with work recently? If there is a shortage of manpower, your grandma and I can go and help out. We can still do the work in the fields."

Su Ran picked up the palm-leaf fan that was covering her face and said, "Grandpa, no need. I don't have much to do right now. You can just stay with my grandma."

Grandpa Jiang sighed when he heard this. He knew that his granddaughter didn't want to trouble them. "If you are busy in the future, remember to call us. Your grandma and I are too bored to stay at home."

Su Ran: "Grandma, why don't you plant some more vegetables? I'll give you some good seeds."

She still has a lot of seeds soaked in nutrient solution in her laboratory. She almost forgot about them. Now is the right time to give them to grandma. When they grow up, she can eat delicious cucumbers, tomatoes, and strawberries again!

Recalling the sweet and sour taste of the cherry tomatoes and strawberries he had eaten before, Su Ran swallowed.

Grandma Jiang was a little tempted, "But what should we do with the ones in the yard now? Should we pull them all out?"

Grandpa Jiang: "Pull them out, we'll keep the good ones for ourselves, and take the rest to her uncle's house, or make some pickles. Oh, and send some to Xiao He as well, he must not have enough food at the educated youth camp."

Grandma Jiang felt a little distressed, but she still gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, let's do it this way, we'll do it tomorrow."
