Siheyuan: At the beginning, you can absorb good luck to stay alive.

My younger sister, Mei Lan, heard the commotion around her and buried her head in her brother's clothes, holding back her tears.

Mei Wenhua didn't care what the neighbors said, she just walked home with her sister in her arms.

As if they were not talking about themselves, they directly filtered out the gossip in the yard.

snort! Whatever you say, when you become a little red man, I will harvest again.

As soon as Mei Wenhua walked into the house, her sister struggled to get down because Grandma Liu, her aunt, and Mother Mei all surrounded her.

Mei's mother and the others looked around Mei Wenhua.

"Well, it's okay. I seem to have grown a little bit taller, and I'm finally as tall as my sister!" The aunt stretched out her hand and crossed Mei Wenhua's head, and her hand just reached her sister's head.

"Hua'er, you've suffered so much that your face has become rough!" Grandma Liu pinched Mei Wenhua's little face, "Are you frozen?"

"Grandma Liu, it's a little colder in the northwest, but it's not too cold. I feel it when the wind blows, but it feels about the same when the wind doesn't blow." Mei Wenhua said with a smile.

Mother Mei looked at Mei Wenhua without speaking, tears welling up in her eyes. But with so many guests there, Mother Mei held back.

After Mei's mother controlled her emotions, she touched Mei Wenhua's head and said, "It's good to come back, it's good to come back. Hua'er, are you hungry? Let's eat. The meal is already ready."

"Mom, I'm really hungry. I want to eat the rice and steamed buns you made!"

"Yes, yes!" Mei's mother turned around and walked into the kitchen, "Sister, please help me greet everyone to the table, and I will serve the dishes!"

"Jianjun, Comrade Lu, please take a seat. We are all old acquaintances. You are welcome."

"Thank you sister-in-law, you're welcome! Grandma Liu, please sit down first." Zhou Jianjun came to the dining table and waited for Grandma Liu to sit down first.

"Really, they said there's no need to go outside, everyone is sitting down." Grandma Liu pulled her sister to sit at the dining table.

After Grandma Liu sat down, Zhou Jianjun, Officer Lu and the others pulled up the bench and sat down.

Auntie and uncle went to the kitchen to help Mei's mother serve the dishes.

After a while, the table was filled with dishes, including stewed chicken, stir-fried beef, braised eggplant, tofu, etc.

"Wow! These are all my favorite foods!" Mei Wenhua said happily.

"Hahaha... This is the menu your mother requested. It seems that the person who knows you best is your mother!" Grandma Liu couldn't help laughing when she heard Mei Wenhua's words.

"Brother, I also came up with the idea!" My sister Mei Lan quickly raised her hand to show that she also contributed.

"Thank you sister! Sister, you are the best!"

After all the dishes were served, Mei's mother called her uncle and aunt to serve.

"Grandma Liu, please say a few words and take charge." After Mrs. Mei sat down, she asked Grandma Liu to speak.

"Hehehe... Okay, then I won't refuse. You are all our juniors. Today's meal is for us, little Jianjun, little Luyang, and little Wenhua, to celebrate the success of you three. Complete the mission and return safely!"

"Thank you, Grandma Liu!" Mei Wenhua stood up and thanked Grandma Liu.

"Thank you Grandma Liu, thank you Comrade Mei and your family for your warm hospitality, thank you Lao Liu and sister-in-law!" Zhou Jianjun and Officer Lu also expressed their sincere thanks.

"Don't stand up. I won't say much else. Let's start the meal!" After speaking, Grandma Liu picked up the chicken legs with chopsticks and put them in Mei Wenhua's bowl.

The remaining chicken leg was placed in my sister's bowl.

The two chicken legs were arranged by Grandma Liu for Mei Wenhua and her sister Mei Lan from the beginning.

"Comrade Zhou, Comrade Lu, come on your own, I won't advise you. Just eat whatever you want, don't be shy."

"Thank you, Comrade Mei. We can come by ourselves. This is not the first time we have eaten at your house. We won't be shy."

Everyone chatted while eating.

Zhou Jianjun and Officer Lu told everyone some interesting things that happened on the road.

The younger sister listened most fascinatedly, her big eyes twinkling, "Brother, I didn't expect it to be so fun outside. Can you take me with you next time you go out?"

"We have a mission, otherwise we wouldn't want to go. Look, we'll be out for half a month!"

"Xiao Meilan, you have already started school. Your task now is to study hard. You are going to be a police officer. It's not okay if you don't study well!" Officer Lu quickly made up for it.

"Yes, Xiao Meilan, don't worry. When you officially become a police officer, you will have plenty of opportunities to go out!" Zhou Jianjun did not expect that they were having a good time, and it was Xiao Meilan who attracted him.

"Okay, I'll study hard first! Brother, when you tell me a story at night, can you tell me what interesting things you encountered outside?" My sister Mei Lan settled for the next best thing.

She felt that if she and her brother went out for half a month, there would be no one to take care of her mother, so she decided not to go out.

Just let your brother tell you interesting things happening outside.

"No problem! I'll tell you tonight!" Mei Wenhua agreed immediately.

After eating this meal for more than an hour, Mei Wenhua was full.

After eating, Zhou Jianjun and Officer Lu didn't stay long. They both had to go to the unit to report on the mission.

The uncle drove them back to the investigation department.

Mei Wenhua and the others are the only ones left at home.

Mei Wenhua took Dabai to his room and gave him a chicken, "Dabai, this is yours, eat it in this room, and we will live in this room from now on!"

Dabai rubbed Mei Wenhua with his head, then took the chicken in his mouth and found a corner to eat happily.

After arranging Dabai, Mei Wenhua found the bag he brought back, took out the food inside, and gave it to Grandma Liu and Auntie to eat together.

It’s just that everyone had just eaten, so they just looked at it without eating.

As long as my sister couldn't help it, she tasted the beef jerky Mei Wenhua brought to see if the taste was different from what her uncle made.

"Ah! It doesn't taste as good as the one made by my uncle. It has a different taste."

"The cooking method is different, and the type of beef is also different. This is beef jerky made from yak meat." Mei Wenhua couldn't help laughing when she looked at her sister's cute look.

His sister's feelings were the same as his, and he also preferred the beef jerky made by his uncle.

Mei Wenhua took out the silver bracelet she bought from Xining Department Store, "Grandma Liu, aunt, mother, look at what good things I bought for you?"

"Brother, brother, where's mine?" When the sister heard that her brother didn't call her, she ran over quickly.

"Of course you are indispensable! Don't worry, brother will buy you the most!"

After hearing Mei Wenhua's words, her sister Mei Lan was happy.

Grandma Liu and Auntie were curious about what gifts Mei Wenhua bought them.

Mei Wenhua took out the silver bracelets, three large and one small, "Everyone has one. Can you try it on?"

"Wow, Hua'er, this is a silver bracelet? Where did you buy the silver bracelet?" The aunt saw the bracelet Mei Wenhua took out and recognized it at a glance as being made of silver.

"My aunt has a good eye for silver bracelets. They are made by the Tibetan master Kelsang. They are only sold in the department store in Xining and cannot be bought elsewhere!" Mei Wenhua handed a large bracelet to her aunt.

"Does this cost a lot of money? It's too expensive. Hua'er, you don't have to give it to us." Grandma Liu smiled happily, but she was a little embarrassed to take it.

"It's not expensive. I bought it specially for you. Wearing the silver bracelet will make your body healthier!" Mei Wenhua put the silver bracelet into Grandma Liu's hand.

Auntie Mei and Mother Mei picked up the silver bracelet and started trying it on.

The younger sister was the most active. She had already put it on, raised her hand and shook it, smiling happily, "Hahaha, it's so beautiful, and it just fits. Thank you, brother!"

Grandma Liu's and aunt's wrists are almost the same thickness, so they fit just right.

"Thank you Hua'er, aunt shamelessly accepted it!"

"Thank you Hua'er. Grandma Liu accepted it shamelessly. Grandma Liu will give you a surprise another day."

"Thank you Hua'er, mom likes it very much!" Mei's mother showed a happy smile on her face, her eyes kept staring at the silver bracelet Mei Wenhua gave her, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it.
