Reborn in the 60s and adopted

In the evening, Aunt Tang San prepared a sumptuous dinner to celebrate the arrival of a mushroom-growing expert in their village.

Niu Nan had just packed his luggage when he heard Comrade Tang Yongli calling him to eat.

Niu Nan entered the kitchen. The table was already full of people. His coming in made the people who were talking and laughing stop talking abruptly.

"Oh, this is Technician Niu, come and sit down." Aunt Tang San enthusiastically went to Niu Nan's side and put the stool aside.

"Hello, sister-in-law." Niu Nan nodded politely.

"Oh, you're here, come and sit down, we're ready to eat!" Aunt Tang said as she walked to the stove and brought the other hot dishes to the table. Others also hurried to help get the bowls and chopsticks.

"Okay, our technician Niu has worked hard to come here today, and he must be hungry. I won't say much, let's eat." After Uncle Tang said this, he picked up a piece of food with chopsticks to signal everyone that they could start eating.

Seeing Uncle San start eating, a few people joined the battle.

Tang Mei saw that Niu Nan didn't move much after picking up a piece of food with chopsticks. She turned to Pei Yanyan who was sitting next to her.

"Sister Yan, do you think he is a little embarrassed to pick up the food?"

After hearing this, Pei Yanyan looked at Niu Nan and saw that he was just eating the rice in his bowl.

So Pei Yanyan used the serving chopsticks to pick up a large portion of twice-cooked pork and put it in Niu Nan's bowl.

Tang Mei and everyone at the table were stunned. How could this girl/sister who usually didn't like to talk much be so proactive in helping others pick up food?

"Cough cough." Niu Nan was also choked by Pei Yanyan's actions, and his face turned red all of a sudden.

"Hey, here, Technician Niu, come and pick up the dishes." Uncle Tang saw that everyone was a little dazed, so he decided to break the deadlock and use the serving chopsticks to pick up the dishes and put them into Niu Nan's bowl.

"Um. Thank you, Comrade Tang. I'll get the food myself." Niu Nan felt a little embarrassed and picked up the dishes with his chopsticks. He was afraid that if he didn't pick up the food, everyone at the table would take turns to pick it up for him.

After the meal, everyone left the table and went about their own business.

Niu Nan walked out of the yard and remembered seeing Pei Yanyan standing under the eaves, looking in his direction.

"Um, Pei Zhiqing, you haven't gone back to rest yet." Niu Nan had to say hello.

"Yes, I waited for you here on purpose."

"Ahem," Technician Niu choked on his own saliva. "You, you are waiting for me, is there something you want to tell me?"

"Come out with me." Pei Yanyan said and walked forward first.

Niu Nan had no choice but to follow, and the two of them walked out of the courtyard gate.

"you."

"you."

They both spoke together.

"You speak first," Niu Nan said.

"Is there any news in Kyoto recently? Is my Uncle Lin's family okay?" Pei Yanyan asked.

"There shouldn't be any rumors recently. My teacher is pretty good." He finally reacted after saying that. "Your Uncle Lin?"

"Yes, it's your principal." Pei Yanyan confirmed.

"Oh, I see." Niu Nan said and suddenly remembered something. "Wait for me."

After saying that, he ran back to his room.

Pei Yanyan waited for about two minutes, then looked at what he was holding in his hand and ran towards her again.

"Here." Niu Nan handed him the thing in his hand.

"What?" Pei Yanyan took it.

"My teacher's grandson gave this to me when I was about to leave, and asked me to give it to her cousin." Niu Nan said.

"Oh," Pei Yanyan suddenly lost interest.

"Why don't you open it and see what it is?" Niu Nan asked curiously.

"I won't look at it. It's not for me. Do you know who I am?" Pei Yanyan asked puzzledly.

"That's right. The kids in the Tang family call you Sister Pei, so I know you are the cousin of the teacher's grandson." Niu Nan said.

"What about the others?" Pei Yanyan asked.

"What else?" Niu Nan was stumped by the question she asked.

"That's nothing. You go back to sleep. I'll go back too." Pei Yanyan lowered her head in disappointment.

"Then I'll take you there first. It's dark here and it's a little hard to see. It's not safe for you to go alone." Niu Nan said.

Pei Yanyan was secretly delighted that this fool knew how to protect people and return home.

The two of them didn't walk far before they arrived at the Youth League Institute. Wang Ran was sitting on a stone at the entrance of the yard.

"Um, Pei Zhiqing, you're here. I'll go back first." Niu Nan said.

"Okay, be careful." Pei Yanyan waved at him.

Niu Nan nodded and left.

"Hey, who is this? He remembers to come back." Wang Ran walked up to the person and joked.

"Why are you hiding here?" Pei Yanyan asked angrily.

"You're still blaming me. Tell me the truth, what's going on between you two?"

"There's nothing wrong between us. Let's go home." Pei Yanyan walked inside.

Wang Ran was left alone, mumbling to himself. "You said it was nothing, but you ran faster than a rabbit."
