They were worried that the stir-fried vegetables would turn cold, so they warmed them in a large pot until Han Qingsong and the children returned home for dinner.

Lin Lan had no choice but to let them go and have Sanwang stay at home, so as not to cause trouble for his older brothers. She also had them go to the brigade to borrow a cart.

After a while, Han Qingsong came back with a round basket on his bicycle that contained many things.

Lin Lan and the children hurried out to help unload the baggage. She was pleasantly surprised, “Where did you get all this?”

Whenever Han Qingsong brought back something, it was either him receiving a reward from some unit or it was a gift from someone else.

He led the men from the Public Security Bureau all day long and even commanded the rescue operation to save someone who fell into the ice hole in the commune’s reservoir.

Han Qingsong handed her half of the pig’s head, “These are gifts from the Yellow River Brigade to the Public Security Bureau. We divided them up and I was given an extra half of the pig’s head.”
