A Time Travel Effort in the 70s

Chapter 137 Liu Mei comes to visit

Shen Jiaren lay on the bed for a while and then began to pack her things.

Most of the books and other things I bought were put into the study in the manor.

He packed up some of the food and drinks according to his daily consumption and put them into the kitchen of the manor. After all, sometimes he ate directly in the manor, and ate the food from the manor, and did not consume things from the outside world.

After Shen Jiaren packed up her things, she set an alarm, washed up, and went to bed.

After all, today was a busy day.

The next day, the alarm clock rang and Shen Jiaren got up.

Shen Jiaren got up and packed her things. After putting them together, she sat in the room and waited for Liu Hui to come and pick her up.

After a while, Shen Jiaren heard someone knocking on the door.

Shen Jiaren asked and found out it was Liu Hui, then she opened the door and let Liu Hui in.

After Liu Hui entered the room, he said to Shen Jiaren, "Have you packed your things? Do you need any help?"

Shen Jiaren replied, "It's packed. Some are on the balcony and some are on the table. Just move them."

As Shen Jiaren spoke, she pointed Liu Hui in a direction so that it would be easier for him to move things.

Liu Hui walked towards the balcony and the table in the direction of Shen Jiaren's finger, and found that Shen Jiaren had cleaned up and sorted everything. The balcony was full of utensils for eating, most of which were the things he brought last time.

On the table, there was only the bag that Shen Jiaren had brought with her, and nothing else.

Seeing this, Liu Hui first moved the things out from the balcony, then walked to the table, holding a bag in one hand and a bag in the other, and walked outside.

As he walked, he said to Shen Jiaren, "Check your belongings. If you haven't left anything behind, then check out and leave. I'll wait for you at the tractor downstairs."

After Shen Jiaren nodded, she began to check if there was anything left in the room.

Shen Jiaren walked around the room and after making sure that nothing was left behind, she took the key, closed the door and walked downstairs.

Shen Jiaren went downstairs to check out and found that the lady at the front desk was not the same lady from yesterday. She breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, otherwise how would she explain it if the lady really asked her to take her to see Liu Hui.

With this feeling of relief, Shen Jiaren checked out and left the guesthouse.

After leaving the guesthouse, Shen Jiaren saw Liu Hui standing on the left side of the guesthouse.

Seeing this, Shen Jiaren walked towards Liu Hui.

Liu Hui looked at Shen Jiaren walking towards him and started the tractor.

When Shen Jiaren walked up to the tractor, Liu Hui had already started the tractor and sat in the seat, ready to set off.

Seeing this, Shen Jiaren jumped onto the truck bed, and the tractor started to rumble forward.

The two of them looked at each other in silence for a while and walked towards the village.

In fact, Shen Jiaren had a lot of questions she wanted to ask, such as about her dog, Zhou Jinbao, Chen Jiaojiao's money, etc. There were so many things she wanted to ask, but now she didn't know why it was so awkward and Shen Jiaren didn't know how to start.

In addition, the noise of the tractor is very loud. If two people want to talk, they need to shout loudly. Shen Jiaren feels it is a bit tiring and doesn't want to chat like this.

The two of them walked all the way back to the village.

After returning to the village, Liu Hui drove the tractor directly towards Shen Jiaren's yard.

After arriving at the yard and Shen Jiaren opened the door, Liu Hui began to move things inside.

After Liu Hui moved Shen Jiaren's things to the under-awning, he said to Shen Jiaren, "Your dog has been taken to the Public Security Bureau by Xiao Li for training. You will need to go to the Public Security Bureau to get the dog back when the time comes.

As for Zhou Jinbao's case, the gang has been arrested by the Public Security Bureau. You can live in your home without worries.

As for the traps in your home, my colleagues at the Public Security Bureau and I have reinforced them for you. They are more hidden and more lethal than before, so you can rest assured about their safety.

Also, the team leader Liu Dashan told you to come back, tidy up your house and then go find him because he has something to talk to you about.

I have something else to do this afternoon, so I’ll leave first.”

Shen Jiaren listened to Liu Hui's words and it seemed that there was no difference whether he said it or not, so she nodded. After sending Liu Hui to the door, she watched Liu Hui drive away on the tractor.

Seeing this, Shen Jiaren closed the door and started packing her things.

Shen Jiaren had just unpacked her luggage and was about to put her things away when she heard someone knocking on the door.

Shen Jiaren was confused when she heard the knock on the door. Could it be that Liu Hui had forgotten to tell her something?

That doesn’t make sense. I didn’t hear any rumbling sound from the tractor. Who is knocking on my door?

Shen Jiaren stood up, brushed off the dirt on her body, walked to the door and asked, "Who is it?"

When the person at the door heard someone answering him, he stopped knocking on the door and said to Shen Jiaren, "It's me, Liu Mei."

When Shen Jiaren heard that it was Liu Mei at the door, she asked curiously, "Hello, Comrade Liu, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Liu Mei replied, "Nothing, I just heard the sound of the tractor and knew you were back, so I came to chat with you."

Shen Jiaren was very confused when she heard this. Want to chat with me?

Are we that close?

Besides, I just got home. Normal people would wait a little longer before coming over. Who would come over as soon as someone else got home? ?

Does it not matter to her whether I clean the house or not?

So he said to Liu Mei, "I'm sorry, Comrade Liu, I just got home and haven't cleaned up yet, so it's not convenient for me to entertain guests."

Liu Mei said, "I didn't plan on how you would entertain me, nor did I plan on you treating me as a guest.

Aren’t you curious about what happened in the village while you were away?

I just came here to exchange information with you, nothing else.

So please open the door, I also want something.”

Shen Jiaren was still very confused after hearing Liu Mei's answer, but since she had said this, she opened the door to let Liu Mei in.

Shen Jiaren opened the door and found that Liu Mei was the only one there, so she opened the door and let Liu Mei in. After Liu Mei came in, she closed the door again.

After Shen Jiaren and Liu Mei walked under the awning, Shen Jiaren asked her to stand under the awning and wait for a while while she went to get a stool for Liu Mei.

After Shen Jiaren went to the east room, opened the door, took out two stools, and then locked the door of the east room.

Liu Mei couldn't help but smile at Shen Jiaren's actions, but didn't say anything.

Shen Jiaren walked under the awning with the stools, handed one of them to Liu Mei, and the two of them sat under the awning together.

When Shen Jiaren just sat down, she was still thinking about how to start the conversation when she heard Liu Mei say, "Shen Zhiqing, I want to ask you, have you subscribed to the newspaper?"

Shen Jiaren was surprised when she heard Liu Mei say that. Did she meet Liu Mei when she was ordering newspapers in town? Or did she meet someone else?

When I ordered the newspaper, I did not disguise myself, but when I went to the town, I also noticed that the team was busy finishing the autumn harvest. No one from the team should go to the town, and no one should have met me.

So if the other person sees that I am subscribing to a newspaper, will that also mean that I am buying stamps?

The more Shen Jiaren thought about it, the more panicked she became, as if her vest had been taken off.

Liu Mei saw that Shen Jiaren didn't say anything, but lowered her head, looked at the ground, and kept rubbing the corner of her clothes with her hands, looking like she was thinking.

He said directly to Shen Jiaren, "Don't think about it, I didn't find out that you ordered the newspaper.

I know this because when I went to the mountain to pick things that day, I found that the postal staff came to deliver things to you and knocked on your door, but no one answered.

I was just about to tell the other party that he was no longer available and asked me to come back in a few days.

The other party told me that it was a subscribed newspaper, not letters or anything else.

The newspaper is published twice a week, and delivering it once a month is already very late. If it is delivered later, I don't know whether the newspaper can be delivered to you. I will let the other party find the team leader and deliver the newspaper you subscribed to to the team leader.

So, I know you subscribe to the newspaper, but as for the rest, I am not interested."

Seeing this, Shen Jiaren raised her head and said to Liu Mei, "Yes, I subscribed to newspapers from several publishing houses. What can I do for you?"

Liu Mei said to Shen Jiaren anxiously, "Can I borrow it?"

Shen Jiaren replied, "You can borrow it, but you've heard from the postman that the newspapers are not very timely now."

"That's okay. I believe you subscribe to a newspaper not for the timeliness of information, but to know what's happening in the outside world.

The most important thing is that even if the information is not timely, it is much better than no information at all.”

Seeing this, Shen Jiaren nodded and replied, "Indeed, I have the same idea as you.

But you also know the current situation. I can lend it to you, but you can only look at it here. You can't take it back, and you can't take it out of this yard.

Although there is nothing wrong with the newspaper, I am afraid that it will be taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives, and the loss will outweigh the gain.”

Liu Mei nodded and replied, "I understand your idea, I promise you.

Can I start with this edition of the newspaper?"

Shen Jiaren replied embarrassedly, "I just got home and haven't had time to pack. Liu Hui just told the captain that I should go find him, but I haven't had time to find him yet, so I don't have any newspapers in my hand."

Liu Mei said to Shen Jiaren with stars in her eyes, "How about this? I'll clean the house for you, and you go ask the team leader for some newspapers.

I have been here for a long time, and the only way I know news from the outside world is through monthly correspondence with my parents. The key is that these envelopes sometimes get lost, so I really want to know what is happening outside?

Are we going to stay in this place forever? Is there any chance to go back?"

When Shen Jiaren heard her curious point, she really wanted to answer, "It won't be long. It won't be long before the college entrance examination is opened and the educated youth can move to the city. You must hold on." But she was afraid that if she said this, she would bring trouble upon herself.

However, after my experience during this period, I could especially understand the urgency in the hearts of the educated youth, so I said to Liu Mei, "It's okay, you don't have to clean up for me, just wait here for me, I'll go find the team leader to get the newspaper back."

After Shen Jiaren finished speaking, she stood up and walked outside.

Liu Mei said to Shen Jiaren who was walking hurriedly, "Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of the yard for you."

Shen Jiaren smiled when she heard that, and thought to herself, the doors of all my houses are closed, so why are you showing me your yard?

But the intention is good.

When Shen Jiaren was halfway there, she suddenly remembered that the two people seemed to be talking about information exchange just now, so why did it seem like she was making unilateral efforts now?

Forget it, everyone is in the same situation. At least I have a perspective on the future, so I'll help as much as I can.

In addition, Shen Jiaren was not sure whether the newspaper at that time would be helpful to the educated youth, but it was better to have it than not.

Thinking of this, Shen Jiaren walked faster.

When Shen Jiaren walked to the door of the brigade's warehouse, she happened to see the brigade captain walking out of the house next to the warehouse.

Seeing this, Shen Jiaren hurriedly called out, "Captain, Captain."

When the captain Liu Dashan heard someone calling him, he looked up and saw that it was Shen Jiaren. He smiled and said, "Are you back?"

Seeing this, Shen Jiaren also smiled and replied, "Yes, I'm back."

The captain said to Shen Jiaren with a smile on his face, "How does it feel to be back in your own doghouse?

Didn’t you insist at that time that your doghouse was good? You’ve been staying in the guesthouse for the past few days. How is it?

How do you feel?

Do you still think your own doghouse is good?

Besides, I also heard from Liu Hui that you fainted and were hospitalized. How come you can't leave your own room?"

Seeing that the captain Liu Dashan was still teasing her, Shen Jiaren replied, "Not very good, I still need to clean it up.

The fainting was not intentional, it was because I didn't realize it, not because I couldn't leave home.

Besides, I still think my own doghouse is the best, otherwise why do people always say that a golden or silver doghouse is not as good as my own doghouse? "

When Captain Liu Dashan saw Shen Jiaren responding to him with full energy, he knew that the child was probably really well.

At that time, I heard Liu Hui say that the child was sick and hospitalized. If I had been unable to leave, I would have really gone to the hospital to see him.

After all, if this mess hadn't happened in their village, they wouldn't have let the child live in a guesthouse.

In fact, I can guess that a little girl who suddenly lives in a strange place will not only not have good food and drink, but also be worried and frightened. She will definitely get sick.

This child has a good mentality. He started to get sick after Liu Hui delivered the note, not as soon as he arrived at the guesthouse.

After all, it was because of my own poor leadership. I didn't notice that there were a few bad apples in my village. One bad apple spoiled the whole bunch and scared the child badly.

Fortunately, they have been caught now, otherwise I would be very worried when this kid comes back.

After all, a thief can only steal for a thousand days, so there is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days.
