Traveling between the 70s and the modern world

There were all kinds of hair accessories on the kang, as well as brightly colored scarves, hats, gloves and other styles.

Ye Yi had no time to care about Lin Qingyan's deliberate teasing of her.

"Qingyan, you are so nice. I really like you." Ye Yi touched everything on the kang before speaking in a flattering manner to Lin Qingyan who was eating noodles.

"Tomorrow you go find Wang Lanlan, and you two can discuss where to sell or exchange things. You can make a plan and bring your things with you to try."

Lin Qingyan gave Ye Yi some advice while eating the noodles in her bowl.

"Then you won't come with us?"

Ye Yi has become accustomed to Lin Qingyan's company and feels safe with her around. She wants Lin Qingyan to go with her.

"How about this, you two discuss it. I'll go with you, but I'm just there to accompany you. I won't be in charge of anything else. Okay?"

Lin Qingyan thought about it and decided to accompany them again.

"Okay, then I'll ask Wang Lanlan to come over to discuss this tomorrow."

Ye Yi looked at these items carefully again, and she couldn't let go of each one. Finally, she looked again and again, and was repeatedly driven away by Lin Qingyan, so she went back to her room to rest.

Lin Qingyan got up early this morning. She had been busy all day and felt a little tired. After washing up, she lay on the kang, thinking that since she didn't have to deliver vegetables to Modern tomorrow, she might as well go to Grandpa Lin's house. She had been very busy these days.

The next morning, Lin Qingyan woke up on time as usual. After having breakfast, she went to the space to organize the vegetables and fruits she was going to bring for Grandpa Lin.

Some of the fruits that I asked Zhou Limei to buy last time have already borne fruit, especially the strawberries, which come in two colors: one is the red strawberry that is often seen in modern times, and the other is white strawberry.

White strawberries taste better than red ones, and you can smell the fragrance when you bring them to your mouth.

She had eaten strawberries once at Zhou Limei's house and thought they tasted very good. However, after eating the strawberries in the space, there was no way to compare the ones she had at Zhou Limei's house.

Lin Qingyan took a small bamboo basket and picked a basket of white strawberries and a basket of red strawberries.

Other fruits have also grown, such as blueberries, which have also borne fruit. It was the first time Lin Qingyan ate them, and the blueberries were too small. After eating one, it seemed that she could not taste the flavor.

She picked a dozen of them and put them in her mouth, and then she tasted the sweetness of blueberries. It was sweet with a hint of sourness, but not too sweet, and not so sour that people couldn't eat it. The whole taste was very good.

However, blueberries were not in season in the winter, so she couldn't say she grew them herself, so she didn't dare to take them out. She put the picked blueberries in the fresh-keeping room.

After packing up the things to bring to Grandpa Lin and Grandma, Lin Qingyan carried her backpack and walked out of the space towards Grandpa Lin's modern home.

Lin Qingyan went relatively late this time and arrived at Grandpa Lin's house after breakfast.

"Girl, why don't you come over to eat? Your Grandpa Lin and I have grown a lot of things on the mountain. You can't make us poor by eating them."

When Grandma Lin saw Lin Qingyan, her face was full of wrinkles as she smiled happily.

But she couldn't help nagging, so Lin Qingyan quickly coaxed her, "Grandma, I'm eating here at noon today, you have to cook some of your specialty dishes for me."

"Okay, grandma will make you some pork chops today!" Lin's attention was diverted and he was thinking about what to cook for lunch.

Lin Qingyan put the vegetables from Grandma Lin's backpack in the kitchen. Looking at the busy Grandma Lin, she felt a little sad for some reason.

Grandpa Lin was weaving something with grass while looking at the busy old woman tenderly.

After Lin Qingyan was driven out of the kitchen by Grandma Lin, she helped Grandpa Lin clean the yard. After the yard was clean, she cleaned the water tank and filled it with water.

"Don't work so hard, girl. Are you tired? Sit down and take a rest. Come visit us when you have time. You can eat when your grandma is done cooking."

Mr. Lin stopped Lin Qingyan from continuing to work.

"It's okay, Grandpa. I'm not tired." Lin Qingyan said, but she still walked to the kitchen and sat down under the stove.

"Grandma, can we start a fire now?" Lin Qingyan asked, holding firewood in her hand.

"You can start a fire now. Grandma made you some pork shavings today. The pork shavings she made are delicious."

"Grandma, what is slag meat?"

"The dregs of pork are pork belly. Cut it up, add some soy sauce, cooking wine, ginger and garlic to marinate. After marinating for half an hour, coat it with a layer of steamed pork flour.

Then put it outside to dry in the sun, and it will be easy to store. You can just steam it next time you want to eat it.”

Grandma Lin took out the dried meat from the basket hanging in the kitchen, put it on a plate and then put it in the pot to steam.

Only then did Lin Qingyan see that there was a lot of meat in the basket, all of which were pickled bacon.

"Grandma, do you usually buy meat from the mountain?"

"We didn't need to buy it before. Your grandfather hunted in the mountains and it was enough for us to eat. But since the country has listed many animals as protected animals, your grandfather can no longer hunt at will."

“Are many of them protected animals?”

"Not really. At least we can still hunt rabbits and pheasants now. But your grandfather is getting old, so we can only go down the mountain to buy them once every two weeks.

The temperature in the mountains is low, and now we have refrigerators at home. We can put the things we buy in the refrigerator in the summer and put them outside in the winter. The things we buy here are like natural refrigerators outdoors. "

"Grandma, I won't be traveling outside of town for more than a year. If you need anything during this period, just tell me and I'll bring it to you from the foot of the mountain."

Lin Qingyan didn’t know whether she would be able to come to this place again one year later after she left Xishui Town in the 70s.

According to the current rules of space, one can only exit from where one enters. So if she goes to college, I don’t know what will happen.

"Girl, are you leaving?"

"No, grandma. I'm not sure yet. The details will depend on the arrangements one year from now."

"Child, remember one thing, no matter where you are, just remember that someone is thinking of you and caring about you. People can't be together forever. Just keep moving forward. As long as you live well, the people who care about you will be relieved."

Grandma Lin looked at the girl adding firewood to the stove with a serious tone.

"I understand, grandma." Lin Qingyan understood what Grandma Lin meant and replied softly.

"Of course you don't need to bring the things. Your grandfather and I also need to go down the mountain frequently to stretch our legs. Besides, the food and meat stored at home are more than enough to last a month. We just need to buy some vegetables for the winter."

Grandma Lin put the meat on the rice and steamed it, then turned around to wash the vegetables that Lin Qingyan brought.

"In spring, autumn and summer, you can go down the mountain with grandpa to stretch your legs. Don't go in winter, especially in rainy and snowy weather, the mountain roads are not easy to walk on." Lin Qingyan continued to persuade.

"Don't worry, little girl. Your grandfather and I will be careful." Grandma Lin looked at the washed vegetables in the basin.

Asked Lin Qingyan: "Girl, every time I finish eating the dishes you bring, I feel much better. Is there anything good for the body in these dishes?"
