Early the next morning, after having breakfast with Chu's father, Chu Xingchen proposed to the old man that he had to go back to the winter pasture base.

"What's the hurry, you and Zhuo Yan will stay and play for another day or two?" Father Chu was a little disappointed, he didn't expect that he had tried his best to tell his son so much about the situation in country M yesterday, and this stupid son was still thinking about herding cattle and sheep.

"No, there are many specific things in the winter herding work, which need to be implemented by me, Dad, you don't have to worry too much about me, you can call the camp if you have anything, or write to me directly, if you are not in a hurry, I will go back to Xilin in two months, and it will be more convenient to call and receive letters in that place,"

Chu Xingchen said solemnly, planning his future clearly.

When Father Chu heard this, this was a good hurry, his son had thought about everything, so wasn't all the words he said in vain?

"You ......" Chu's father originally wanted to mobilize Chu Xingchen again, but when the words came to his lips, and then looked at his son's black and white eyes, Chu's father felt that he couldn't say a lot of words.

There was no way, Chu's father took out a stack of foreign exchange coupons and wanted to leave them for Chu Xingchen.

This is a good thing, Chu Xingchen accepted it unceremoniously.

At present, foreign currency is not allowed to circulate in the country, and all overseas Chinese and foreigners who want to enter the country must exchange the foreign currency they carry for this kind of foreign exchange coupon, and then use the foreign exchange coupon to spend in the country.

At that time, the shopping center specially provided for them was called the Friendship Mall, and in the Friendship Mall, there were many good things that people wanted to buy but couldn't buy.

For example, good cigarettes and alcohol, watches and jewelry, some fashionable clothes, and even electrical appliances and stereos, etc., the most sought-after goods on the market can be bought in the Friendship Store.

Chu Xingchen is not short of money, but there is no special way for this foreign exchange coupon, and he can't get it, but now it's okay, Chu's father gave so much, he just put it away, and kept it for Zhuo Yan to buy clothes to wear in the future.

Chu's father didn't know what his son thought, and he was very happy to see that he had accepted his foreign exchange coupons, and then told Zhuo Yan and Chu Xingchen a few words, and then saw Zhuo Yan and Chu Xingchen leave.

When Zhuo Yan and Chu Xingchen left, the secretary Anna came to Chu's father's side and asked him cautiously, "Mr. Jones, what is the relationship between that young man and you?" I think you love him very much? ”

In the first half of Chu's father's life, he has been in the political circles, and in the second half of his life, he started to do business again, it can be said that his shrewdness is unmatched, of course, he will not be talked to by a little secretary, "Hehe, it is the child of an old friend of mine, I am very happy to see him young and promising!" ”

I see, hearing Father Chu's words, the doubts in Anna's heart were explained, it turned out to be a friend's child, so it didn't affect her plan at all.

Zhuo Yan and Chu Xingchen had a hard time, and after leaving the guest house, they did not immediately embark on the return journey, but went to the supply and marketing cooperatives in Donglin Town, bought a lot of snacks and sweets, and then happily went back.

The black horse and the black mountain horse stayed in the stable of the guest house for the night, and felt that the shed in this place was ventilated, and the horses around them were not friendly, and often came to their trough to grab fodder to eat, so they were very homesick, and ran fast on the way back.

The two of them rushed to the winter animal husbandry base at noon, whether it was Donglin or Xilin, as long as they knew the two of them, they greeted them warmly, and some people invited them to eat at home.

"No, I'd better go home and eat," Zhuo Yan declined with a smile.

Chu Xingchen didn't have so many words in front of outsiders, and in the face of the other party's invitation, he just pointed at Zhuo Yan, signaling that he would be with Zhuo Yan and not separate from each other when eating.

Village Chief Zhuo was very happy to see the two of them come back, "Donglin sent a piece of fresh beef, and threw it in the pot and stewed it early, just when you two came back, let's eat beef ramen at noon!" ”

Since the people of Xilin Town moved into the winter herding camp, they have established a friendship with the people of Donglin, and everyone has exchanged gifts and gifts to each other.

When Zhuo Yan heard his father say this, he immediately smiled and nodded, "I'll go to meet now!" ”

Zhuo Yan has the best skills in making ramen, so this key link is handed over to Zhuo Yan.

Chu Xingchen took off the chain full of candy and snacks from the back of the black horse, took out two pieces of fruit candy from it, fed one piece to each of the two horses, and gave the rest to Village Chief Zhuo, "Zhuo Yan bought it for your old man!" ”

Village Chief Zhuo pinched the chain and shook his head again and again, "Why did you buy me these?" I'm ...... again for wasting money."

He suddenly touched a round and hard thing, his eyes suddenly lit up, and when he touched it, he saw that it was indeed a small bottle of liquor, and Village Chief Zhuo immediately smiled, "Sure enough, my daughter is good to me!" ”

The black horse and the black mountain horse did not need to be pulled by the master, so they walked to their stables by themselves, and when they went out, they found that they were still comfortable, sheltered and warm, and the bean cakes in the trough could be eaten vigorously.

Beef ramen is made by hand, and it takes special skill to pull out such noodles.

Zhuo Yan has this ability, only to see a piece of snow-white dough, in her hands like a trick, after repeated pulling, it soon turned into a wide and thin ramen with a moderate thickness, and was boiled into a boiling soup pot.

Chu Xingchen was dazzled on the sidelines, "When will you be able to cook for me every day?" ”

"Aren't you going to eat my cooking now?" The beef had already been fished out and was drying on the side, Zhuo Yan took out a bright knife and cut the beef into thick slices, which were to be spread on the noodles later.

"I mean, you only make it for me to eat," Chu Xingchen was quite greedy.

"Hahaha, then you should hurry up and marry me, otherwise you won't have anything to eat," Zhuo Yan said, his hands kept moving, and soon three bowls of beef ramen were served.

The snow-white noodles are soft and long, and the soup is sprinkled with a handful of green garlic sprouts, a few slices of white radish, and a large slice of beef.

Village Chief Zhuo hurriedly beckoned his daughter and prospective son-in-law to sit down, and while eating, the three of them talked about the experience of going to Donglin this time.

Hearing that Chu Xingchen's father was still alive, Village Chief Zhuo's first reaction was to prepare gifts and go over to visit the old man's house.

"Xingchen, your father has not been easy all these years, I have to see him," Village Chief Zhuo felt reasonable, as a quasi-in-law, he had to go and comfort Father Chu.

"Don't go," Chu Xingchen hurriedly said his father's concerns and his current thoughts.

Village Chief Zhuo thought about it, and felt that it was reasonable for Father Chu to have such concerns, "Then if you don't go, you won't go, as long as people are safe, anyway, in the future, there will be more opportunities for our brothers to meet!" ”
