Another week later, Lin Yunyi prepared a large box of specialties and New Year's goods, and while Cheng Jingmo and Yu Xiangyang were at home, she asked them to go to the post office to mail them to the Yu family.
Yes, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and every household is cleaning, buying New Year’s goods, and preparing for the New Year.
On the twenty-sixth day of the lunar calendar, the Song family also received a large box full of specialties and new year goods from the Yu family from Nancheng.
The two women’s in-laws have quite a tacit understanding!
The weather was very good that day, and Yu Xiangnian and Lin also brought their two children to the bookstore.
As the Chinese New Year is approaching, there are not many people in the store.
Wen Qiuning sent the customer to the door and saw two little potatoes running towards him. When he looked again, Yu Xiangnian and Lin were also walking behind.
Wen Qiuning quickly took a few steps forward, squatted down, and took the two little potatoes into his arms, "An'an, Keke."
"Auntie." An An called first, and Coco followed suit, "Auntie."
"Hey!" Wen Qiuning looked at the two fair and tender people, and her heart softened. The corner of her lips curled up, "You are so good."
Yu Xiangnian and Lin Ye approached, and Wen Qiuning stood up and said, "Why are you here?"
Yu Xiangnian replied: "Come and see you."
"It's cold outside, come in quickly." Wen Qiuning held the two little potatoes, "Let's go in."
Several people entered the bookstore, and Wen Qiuning found two chairs for them to sit down.
Because it was not convenient to sit for long periods of time with a child, Yu Xiangnian explained the purpose of coming to see Wen Qiuning today after a few casual conversations.
"Wen Qiuning, I'm here to invite you to my home to celebrate the New Year." Yu Xiangnian said, "You are alone in Beijing, and it is inconvenient for food and accommodation. My parents asked Lin and I to invite you to my home to celebrate the New Year."
"Thank you, I'm not going." Wen Qiuning refused.
She understood what Yu Xiangnian's parents meant. Yu Xiangnian saw that she was alone and invited her, but they just said that on purpose.
The bookstore started its holiday on the 29th and opened on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. The boss felt sorry for her because she had no place to go alone and allowed her to stay in the store during the holiday and take care of her own food.
Yu Xiangnian frowned and said: "During the New Year days, the shops are closed and you can't buy anything. What do you eat? Besides, we are considered friends. Why are you and your friends still seeing each other like this?"
Wen Qiuning lowered her eyes.
She was used to living alone, so it was okay to celebrate the New Year alone. However, it was difficult for her to refuse such a sincere invitation from Yu Xiangnian.
Yu Xiangnian added: "Our relatives are all in other places. During the Chinese New Year, those people are at home. You have met them many times."
Lin also echoed: "Wen Qiuning, just go to my house to celebrate the New Year. My parents are approachable, and our family can get along easily!"
Wen Qiuning thought for a moment, "Then I will go to your house on the morning of my thirtieth day."
Yu Xiangnian and Lin also laughed happily, "Okay, it's settled."
"Don't buy anything. We don't lack anything at home." Yu Xiangnian added.
When the two returned to the gate of the compound, the guard took two books and handed them to Lin Ye.
"A comrade named Meng Yiming asked me to hand this over to you," the guard said. "He asked me to tell you that you should have time to go to the hospital to find him."
Lin Ye took the book and looked at it. It was the book on materialism that she lent to Meng Yiming last time. She had borrowed it for half a year, and she had long forgotten about it.
Yu Xiangnian asked the guard, "Did Comrade Meng say what happened?"
"No."
The two continued to go home, and Lin Ye asked warily, "Sister-in-law, do you think I should go or not?"
Yu Xiangnian looked at Lin Ye's vigilant look and was speechless!
"What's your expression?" Yu Xiangnian said, "Doctor Meng will not harm you!"
"Didn't you tell me not to believe everything he says, but to identify it?"
Yu Xiangnian: "..."
After taking two deep breaths, he said: "I was wrong! I shouldn't have said that! Let me tell you again now that Dr. Meng will not harm you. You don't need to judge his words, just understand them normally!"
Lin also nodded, "Then I'll go to the hospital and ask him what's going on."
Lin Ye, who had a fiery personality, didn't even enter the house, so he rode a bicycle in the yard and went to the hospital.
At this time, Meng Yiming hadn't gotten off work yet, and Lin came directly to his office to look for him.
The nurse told Lin Ye that Dr. Meng was visiting and asked her to wait.
It was only after get off work hours that Meng Yiming appeared in a white coat.
Doctor Meng was startled when he saw Lin Ye, and then laughed, "It's fast enough."
Lin Ye said: "I have been waiting for you for almost two hours!"
"Sorry, there are a lot of patients." Dr. Meng took off his white coat and hung it on the hanger, "Let's go."
Lin also followed him, "Dr. Meng, why did you call me here?"
Meng Yiming stopped and asked with a serious expression: "Can you communicate normally today?"
Lin also nodded solemnly, "Yes!"
"Okay." Meng Yiming stepped forward again, "Do you want to eat before listening, or do you want to eat after listening?"
Lin Ye: "I have to go home for dinner. I didn't tell my parents when I went out."
"Ha..." Dr. Meng chuckled, "It's quite difficult to treat you to a meal."
"You called me here to treat me to a meal?" Lin Ye asked in disbelief, "Why are you inviting me to a meal?"
Meng Yiming was so speechless by Lin Ye's words that he didn't know what to say. He took a deep breath and said, "You still need a reason to have a meal?"
Lin Ye said: "I'm not familiar with you, why are you inviting me to dinner?"
"Not familiar?" Meng Yiming sighed softly and said, "I'll just tell you to kill the donkey. At that time, you could ask me about Yu Xiangyang's condition at any time. Now that he has been discharged from the hospital, you are not familiar with me anymore." .”
When Yu Xiangyang was mentioned, Lin also changed the subject awkwardly, "You're already at my door, why don't you go in?"
"I was just passing by," Meng Yiming said.
The fact is that he waited for Lin Ye to ask him to pick up the book, and he waited for several months without seeing anyone.
School was on holiday again, so he had no choice but to go to the gate of the compound to find the guard.
He can't go to Lin Ye's house, otherwise it will be too abrupt!
He had recently inquired about the background of the people living there.
If he rashly went to find Lin Ye at home, Lin Ye's parents would think that he was trying to build a relationship and achieve something.
While they were talking, the two of them had already walked out of the hospital building. Not far away was the cafeteria, with people coming and going at the door.
Meng Yiming asked again: "Are you going to eat or not?"
Lin also shook his head, "I won't eat."
"If you don't want to eat, don't eat." Meng Yiming continued to walk forward, "Follow me to the dormitory, and I'll give you something."
The two came to Meng Yiming's dormitory.
Inside the dormitory, it was the same as before, no change at all.
Meng Yiming pulled out a cardboard box from the corner, "This is what my family brought with me. I usually eat in the cafeteria and can't eat these things. You can take them back and try them."
Lin also looked at the box and asked, "What is it?"
"There are glutinous rice sausages, bacon, chili sauce, and two bottles of pickles."
Lin Ye looked at Meng Yiming warily, "Why do you give me these?"
