A wonderful life through the 1970s

Bai Jinglan thought for a moment and said, "We have a water tank that was replaced last year. Because we have a large family, the tank is a bit small. If there are three of you, it should be enough. How about we bring it over to you? As for the vegetables and eggs, we can share some with you. As for the furniture, you have to go to Uncle Wang's house. He is good at carpentry. The educated youth who came here before also exchanged their furniture with him. I'll take you there later."

Lan Xiyue said to Bai Jinglan: "Thank you, Auntie. I have two milk powder coupons and three cloth coupons. Do you think these are enough?"

Bai Jinglan said hurriedly: "That's enough, that's enough. These two milk powder coupons are valuable enough, not to mention the cloth coupons. Just exchange them for some vegetables grown in the fields, that's enough."

"Okay, thank you, auntie."

"Wait for me, I'll send the child to her mother and then get you things." After saying this, Bai Jinglan carried the child into her second daughter-in-law's room.

After sending the children off, I started packing vegetables for them. I used a large backpack to carry some cabbage, radishes, tomatoes, peppers, and eggplants of many varieties. I filled two backpacks and took out half a basket of eggs, about thirty or forty eggs.

Lan Xiyue saw this and said hurriedly: "Aunt, there is no need to save the eggs for my sister-in-law to nourish her body."

"It's okay, girls. You can take these with you. I'll go and exchange them with some familiar families later. You just arrived and are not familiar with the place, so it's more convenient for me to do it than for you." Bai Jinglan explained enthusiastically.

"Okay then, thank you, auntie." Lan Xiyue said gratefully.

"What are you thanking me for? It's my duty. We have a small cart at home. You can push the things back first and put the water tank on it. Can you push it?" Bai Jinglan asked.

Lan Xiyue looked at Ji Xinyue and the others and said, "Can you two push it? If it's ok, I'll go check out the furniture with my aunt. If not, I'll go back with you guys."

Ji Xinyue said quickly, "Okay, go and look at the furniture."

Lan Xiyue followed Bai Jinglan to Uncle Wang's house. Uncle Wang opened the door of the warehouse, and there were all kinds of furniture inside.

"Just pick what you want. Once you've made your choice, I'll have my son send it back to you."

"Okay, thank you, Uncle Wang."

Lan Xiyue finally chose a kang cabinet, a desk, a chair, a wardrobe, a dining table, four stools, two wooden barrels, two wooden basins, and a backpack, spending a total of more than 30 yuan.

Uncle Wang called his son Wang Fugui to help me deliver it to the rented yard. Ji Xinyue and Liu Chaoyang asked Wang Fugui to deliver two sets here according to what I bought, minus a dining table and two wooden buckets.

By the time all the furniture was put in place, it was dark.

After a busy day, I simply made some hand-rolled noodles and poached a few eggs. That was how I completed my first meal since arriving at Qingshan Brigade.

After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms to rest. Lan Xiyue went into the room, closed the doors and windows, and slipped into the space. No one around had the chance to enter the space these days.

I didn't see Randy when I entered the space. I didn't know where he went. I didn't look for him. I went into the lounge and took a hot bath to wash away the fatigue of the past few days.

After taking a shower, I picked up a book from the library, came to the pavilion in the peach blossom forest, sat down on a reclining chair, poured a cup of tea, drank a sip of tea, and thought that this kind of life is more comfortable. Relax your whole body, drink tea, and read a book.

Oh, I almost forgot about the wooden plaque. I have worn it around my neck since I was a child. It doesn’t look like a valuable item, so it wasn’t taken away, right?

No, there is something on the outside. Lan Xiyue removed the cover and the true face of the wooden sign was revealed. This is not an ordinary wooden sign, but a piece of agarwood. Agarwood is more expensive than gold, no wonder there is a layer of protective color on the outside.

There was a blue word engraved on one side of the wooden sign, and some patterns engraved on the other side.

How could it be such a coincidence? Could it be that the biological father of this body is also named Lan?

What Lan Xiyue didn't know was that Lan Jinwei, who was far away in Beijing, had finally confirmed after much investigation that Lan Xiyue was the daughter who was stolen away, and was planning to come here to find her.
