Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s-Chapter 30 - Good Impression

Just as she was about to accept the items, Qin Jian stopped her, “Mom, we can’t accept!

We’re all from the same village, helping out is what we should do.

How can we take things from her?”

Li Junping’s face was a picture of embarrassment, her hand hanging in the air, undecided whether to take it or not.

An Hao pursed her lips with a smile, “Who said this is to thank you?

It’s true I came to express my gratitude!

I already said thank you earlier!

These treats are for the aunty, don’t I have the right to give something to her as a fellow villager?

That’s not wrong, is it?”

Qin Jian glanced at An Hao and saw her eyes sparkling, shining with a sly light.

A smile brought out two playful dimples at the corners of her mouth, adding a touch of cheekiness to her appearance.

Seeing An Hao smiling cheerfully at him, Qin Jian’s heart skipped a beat, “That’s right.”

Then, he turned and went inside the house.

Li Junping then took the treats from An Hao, looked down at them, and couldn’t help but praise An Hao for being sensible.

An Hao remembered in her last life, the moment she stepped into her in-laws’ house, her mother-in-law Li Junping never gave her a kind look.

This life was truly different from the last.

Every move she made influenced the trajectory of her destiny.

It was a good start, and she aimed to keep following this positive path.

After a brief exchange with Li Junping, An Hao prepared to leave as it was noon and time for her family to have their meal.

Li Junping didn’t hold her up but sent her off with a smile, “An Hao, feel free to visit aunty’s home whenever you like!”

“Alright, aunty, no need to see me out.

It’s too cold, you should hurry back inside!”

After An Hao left, Li Junping, holding the bag of treats, went back inside, where Qin Feng approached with curiosity, “What’s delicious?

Let me try.”

“An Hao’s homemade candied haws!” Li Junping took out two skewers, gave one to Qin Feng, and gave another to Qiang Jian.

“You two eat.

I’ve already had some,” Qin Jian waved his hand.

At their research institute in the city, he often saw candied haws being sold on the streets.

In the city, they weren’t anything special, but in this extremely poor village, they were a rarity.

Seeing him decline, Li Junping took them back for herself.

Qin Feng bit into one, the sugar cracking crisply, the tart sweetness of the hawthorn bursting delightfully in her mouth, “Wow!

This is delicious!

It’s much better than what I ate when I went to the city before.

An Hao is quite skilled.”

Li Junping also couldn’t stop praising after tasting it.

Qin Feng, with a great love for food, quickly finished her skewer and eyed the one belonging to Qin Jian, “Brother, if you’re not going to eat that, can I have it?”

Seeing Qin Feng’s eyes light up, Qin Jian was tempted to give it a try himself.

He took out a skewer from his pocket, bit off one, and found it indeed very tasty.

Before he could speak, Qin Feng snatched it from his hand, “Thanks, big brother!”
