Lin Lan saw it was already 2:40. She hurried inside to grab her household registration book and passbook, then said to Lin Yuezhen, "Sister, you can finish the rest of the pea-flour cakes. When Zhixue and the others get here, just give them the goods. I'm going to the vehicle plant to look at houses with Xiangyang and the others."
Lin Yuezhen nodded and waved her hand, urging her to hurry. Watching Lin Lan push her bicycle out of the courtyard, she went back to her work.
Yang Liying, who was pressing tofu in the back courtyard, came out and saw Lin Lan leave in a rush. She asked curiously, "Where did Lin Lan go?"
Lin Yuezhen gestured to tell her that Lin Lan had gone to see the new house.

Li Xiangyang, Yang Dingbang, and the others arrived at the entrance of the alley by the vehicle plant in a green jeep. Just as they got out, they saw Lin Lan ride up on her bicycle.
