Under the protection of two comrades from the security department, Yuan Chun went to the bank to deposit the money. As she parted with the two comrades, she grabbed a handful of milk candies from her bag to thank them.
After that, she went to the State-owned Restaurant, where the tickets Director Gao gave her included a half kilogram meat ticket. Yuan Chun bought some braised pork, then took out thirty eggs, two bags of milk powder, two cans of malted milk extract, and two cans of canned goods from her space and carried them home.
The Sheng family lived in a house that was self-built by the original owner's grandfather. It was a three-room large brick-tiled house, with an independent courtyard, which also had an old well and a small vegetable plot, usually tended by Mr. Sheng, Mrs. Sheng, and Qin Dashan.
When Yuan Chun entered the yard, Qin Dashan had just finished picking vegetables and was drawing water.
