The Orphan's Counterattack in the 1970s

Chapter 51 Meeting an old friend in the cowshed

Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen had a big meal at Chen Xiaolin's house, and this meal successfully filled them up again.

Grandpa Chen really liked the braised large intestine so much that he even packed away the remaining soup and kept it for mixing with rice at night.

After lunch, Chen Xiaolin took a hatchet and went up the mountain to cut bamboo. She planned to weave a few more bamboo baskets with bamboo herself, then fill the bamboo baskets with mud and put them in the next room. During the winter, Mao wants to clear the way for vegetables. She doesn't like eating radishes and cabbage every day.

Bamboo Mountain was not in the same direction as the mountain Chen Xiaolin usually climbed. Chen Xiaolin kept walking along the road to the cowshed and could see a large bamboo forest in the distance.

When passing by the bullpen, Chen Xiaolin could still hear the sound of someone coughing inside.

Now in broad daylight, Chen Xiaolin did not dare to go near the bullpen. If someone saw her, she would cause trouble for Uncle Chen.

Chen Xiaolin randomly picked two larger bamboos in the bamboo forest and started chopping them.

In less than ten minutes, Chen Xiaolin had tied the two cut bamboos with straw and rattan.

When Chen Xiaolin went back and passed the cowshed, she happened to see a gray-haired old man carrying straw to feed the cows while coughing. Moreover, this gray-haired old man is still an acquaintance of hers.

Chen Xiaolin remembered that the last time she saw him was at the institute, when she was on vacation to find her mother. And this gray-haired old man is her mother's leader.

Chen Xiaolin glanced at him from a distance and then went back. She planned to wait until dark before sneaking over to see him.

Old Man Gao actually recognized Chen Xiaolin and didn't know why Cheng Xin's daughter was here. Shouldn't she be in Beijing?

In fact, Old Man Gao felt very guilty about Chen Xiaolin. If it weren't for covering himself and a research report, her mother Cheng Xin would not have been targeted by spies, causing Chen Xiaolin to lose her parents.

In fact, it was in order to protect this research report that Old Man Gao was forced to use someone else's identity to be sent to Daqingshan Village. He didn't expect to see Cheng Xin's daughter here either. But this is Cheng Xin's husband's hometown. If you think about it carefully, it's not surprising to see Cheng Xin's daughter here.

When Chen Xiaolin returned home, she started busy weaving bamboo baskets. For a while, she didn't have the energy to think about why her mother's boss was here.

After being busy until the evening, Chen Xiaolin knitted a bamboo basket. This was because it was her first time knitting and the knitting speed was not fast. When she knitted the next one, her hand speed would be much faster.

Chen Xiaolin fed the pigs and started to have dinner. Today Chen Xiaolin planned to eat something simple. She took out a hamburger, a cup of Coke, and a pair of spicy wings from the space. She had not eaten McDonald's for a while.

After dinner, she planned to secretly go to the cowshed to have a look at Old Man Goriot while it was dark and no one was around. She took a backpack and filled it with five kilograms of rice, a dried chicken, and a small bottle of loquat paste.

In order to prevent others from discovering that she was not at home, Chen Xiaolin climbed out of the wall.

She was careful along the way. Fortunately, the autumn harvest had just been completed and no one had the energy to wander outside at night.
