Traveling between the 70s and the modern world

Chapter 196 Treat

Lin Qingyan took off the backpack from her body with a smile and spoke to Ye Yi, actually explaining the origin of the dishes to everyone at the educated youth site.

"When we saw them coming in the morning, we took the food to the mountain and left it there, fearing that they would harm us."

At this time, Gu Yizhou also came over, bent down, picked up the backpack and went to Lin Qingyan's kitchen.

Lin Qingyan followed him with a smile. This scene made Xu Jianshan and others think deeply.

Ye Yi wanted to go over to help, but was stopped by Fang Yunxing.

"What are you going to do?"

"Help!"

"Do you think they want you to help?" Fang Yunxing asked, pointing in the direction of Gu Yizhou and the others.

Ye Yi hesitated for a while and went back to her room.

This time there are 5 more people at the dinner than usual, a total of 9 people, so the portion of each dish needs to be larger.

Later in the evening, Ye Yi and Fang Yunxing came to help again, and this time it was Gu Yizhou who went to call them.

Although he didn't want others to disturb their private time, he also didn't want to tire Lin Qingyan.

Lin Qingyan made a braised pork and added some apples as a side dish. This method made Ye Yi and Fang Yunxing very confused.

“Can these two be burned together?”

"Yeah, will this taste good?"

"Yes! We'll know when we eat."

Lin Qingyan actually wanted to cook pure braised pork, but there were too many people, after all, there were a few people she was not familiar with.

If she took out too much meat at once, she would have to explain herself later, so she could only think of adding side dishes. She had eaten this way of cooking once with Zhou Limei, and it tasted very good. This time, if she used the apples in her space, the taste would only be better.

However, Ye Yi and the others were still skeptical. It was only when they saw the normal pork stewed with vermicelli that they breathed a sigh of relief. After all, this was a normal dish.

When Wang Lanlan arrived, she saw several people discussing the side dishes.

Wang Lanlan was holding a piece of bacon in her hand, which her father asked her to bring. Life was hard for everyone in that era, and it was normal to bring food rations when eating at other people's homes or visiting relatives, not to mention that these people were not even relatives.

Lin Qingyan naturally took the bacon she handed over, and finally made a dish by combining bacon with dried bamboo shoots.

We had dinner in the shared kitchen of the educated youth center. After all, with so many people, it wasn’t appropriate to have dinner in anyone’s room, so we finally chose the shared kitchen.

Seeing the table full of dishes, the most surprised were Sun Qiushui, Bai Tiexin and others. They thought they could taste the dishes that always smelled delicious.

But they didn't expect that there was meat in it. And it wasn't just a small piece of meat that was so small that you couldn't even see it, but a huge piece. They could only swallow their saliva when they saw it. However, since it was a rare opportunity, they didn't want to damage their image too much.

By the time they started eating, they had completely forgotten the reserve they had just maintained. The few who had never eaten it before only had three words in their minds: it was so delicious.

Fang Yunxing originally wanted to chatter like usual, but when he saw the people across from him eating so fast, he subconsciously quickened his eating speed.

The last meal was finished in half the time it usually took. Of course, all the dishes were eaten up, and the sauce in the bowl was also eaten up.

The food Lin Qingyan prepared was very filling, and everyone was very full. After the meal, Bai Tiexin and the others felt a little embarrassed.

Seeing their embarrassment, Xu Jianshan took the initiative to stand up and said to Lin Qingyan:

"We'll clean up the kitchen later. Sorry to bother Lin Zhiqing today."

Lin Qingyan was not polite and said to them with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work."

After finishing her meal, Lin Qingyan went for a walk as usual, and Gu Yizhou stayed by her side as usual. When the two of them walked out of the educated youth station,

Wang Lanlan closed her wide eyes, stared at them, then turned around and asked Ye Yi.

"What's going on with them? Why are they going out for a walk together? When did this happen?"

Ye Yi didn't want to answer Wang Lanlan's series of fatal questions. She thought that such matters should be asked to the person involved. How should she answer this question?

"You should ask her directly about this kind of thing."

"Isn't she out now? Tell me first."

Wang Lanlan grabbed Ye Yi directly. Ye Yi had no choice but to say to her:

"It's just like what you saw. They are dating. Of course they can go for a walk together."

Wang Lanlan couldn't believe it. She just stared at her and asked, "When did this happen?"

"It's just recently."

"Ah! How is that possible? Don't lie to me."

Wang Lanlan yelled, startling the people who were cleaning up the mess in the kitchen. Xu Jianshan came out and saw her grabbing Ye Yi in disbelief, and coughed lightly.

"It's getting late, Comrade Wang, aren't you going back? It will be dark if you delay a bit, and the roads are hard to travel on in the winter."

Xu Jianshan was not familiar with Wang Lanlan, but as it was getting dark, he couldn't help but say something. The most important thing was that she seemed a little excited.

"Lin Qingyan is a liar. She clearly said that finding a partner would affect the speed of making money, so why is she still looking for one?"

Wang Lanlan still had some sense left. She just muttered this sentence and didn't let the people in the distance hear it.

But Ye Yi, who was standing next to her, heard it and said to her directly:

"You can ask her directly next time. You'd better go back quickly today. It will be dark soon."

Lin Qingyan still didn't know what happened at the educated youth center after she left. Now she and Gu Yizhou would go directly to Hu Zi's house to take back the remaining things and send them to Xiandai tomorrow.

After the commotion in the morning, everyone in the village knew that Lin Qingyan helped to thread the things that Hu Zi's family wove, so Lin Qingyan received many greetings along the way.

"Lin Zhiqing, have you finished your meal?"

"Lin Zhiqing, taking a walk."

"Lin Zhiqing, do you still need bamboo baskets? My child's father is also very skilled in making them."

Lin Qingyan could only reply with a smile, but by the time she arrived at Hu Zi's house, her smiling face was so stiff.

He sighed and said to Gu Yizhou, "Let's send them to the educated youth center next time. I can't stand such enthusiasm."

Gu Yizhou smiled and said to her:

"You should ask them to send you over. It's okay for me to walk with you while I'm here. If I'm not here, don't come here by yourself at night. I noticed that both families look at you in a strange way."

Gu Yizhou's face was gloomy. He saw the way the two families looked at Lin Qingyan. It was the kind of look that wanted to pull Lin Qingyan into their family and make her work like a slave for them.

This made him very unhappy. When he returned, he would give them another chance. If their eyes were still so purposeful, he would take them out at night to let them know that there were some people they could not easily target.
