Chapter 102: Visiting to Thank You
After Lin Anan finished writing the letter, she gently put down her pen. Her eyes lingered on the letter paper for a moment, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
He folded the letter carefully, thought about it, and then put it into the book.
Outside the window, snowflakes are falling, and the earth is covered with a white blanket of snow, looking particularly lonely under the cold moonlight.
Lin Anan glanced at the snow scene outside the window, got up, closed the curtains tightly, got back on the kang, found a comfortable position, and then fell into a deep sleep.
The next morning.
The snow in the Northwest is getting heavier. The earth seems to be still immersed in a sweet dream, and a layer of soft white gauze quietly covers everything in the world.
The houses are also decorated with white snow and are particularly beautiful. The thick snow on the roofs looks like soft marshmallows. Wisps of green smoke rise from the chimneys, adding a touch of freshness to the quiet snow scene.
The red plum blossoms in the yard are in bloom, proudly blooming in the snow. The bright red dots and the white snowflakes complement each other very beautifully.
“Knock, knock, knock.”
"Sister-in-law, Brother Lu Qing is here and brought a lot of gifts."
There was a knock on Lin Anan's door, and Chu Minglan's voice came into the room.
"Got it, I'll get up right away."
Lin Anan slightly opened her sleepy eyes, woke up a little, got up and put on her clothes. She opened the door and was instantly awakened by the cold wind. She quickly washed up and went to the main hall.
It's already the 28th day of the lunar year, and it's really thoughtful of Lu Qing to come and thank him at this time.
Unfortunately, Chu Mingzhou had not returned yet, so Lin Anan had to go forward to receive him.
"sister in law."
Lu Qing was sitting in the main hall with a smile on his face, chatting with Aunt Chu. When he saw Lin Anan got up, he immediately called her sister-in-law.
He pointed at the large and small bags piled on the table and said, "I went to the city with a friend yesterday and bought some food and small items as a thank you gift."
Lin Anan waved her hands quickly, "I told you not to thank me. Zihuai and I are just lending a hand. It's not a big deal."
"You are wrong. It is not a big deal for you, but it is a huge favor for the entire art troupe! Without you, this art performance would not have been successfully completed."
Lu Qing hesitated for a moment, but still said, "I have good news for you. Our art troupe has been nominated and will be promoted to the central government at the beginning of the year. If everything goes well, we may be sent to frontier outposts and island garrisons for consolation performances next year. We are really grateful to you for this opportunity."
Lin Anan and Lin Zihuai looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.
When Aunt Chu looked at him, Lin Zihuai subconsciously straightened his back and couldn't help but smile.
Very proud!
"That's great. Congratulations. This is the joint efforts of the comrades in the art troupe. It is the honor you deserve."
Lu Qing smiled and shook his head. "No, it's all thanks to you! Several senior leaders praised you highly, saying that you are a rare musical talent, and that Zihuai is just as good as Mu Youwei, and your future is limitless."
Lin Anan raised her eyebrows slightly, feeling that something was wrong with this statement...
But she found that her younger brother was listening very carefully, and his fingers were even writing something on the palm of his hand.
"Honestly, you are all rare talents. Don't you really want to join the art troupe?"
This was the first time that Lu Qing invited someone so seriously.
Lin An paused!
Lin Zihuai's eyes burst into surprise, and the happiness in his eyes almost overflowed.
But he didn't dare say much, just looked at his sister expectantly.
Lu Qing observed the expressions of the two people and was very satisfied with Lin Zihuai's reaction. However, he had some concerns when facing Lin Anan.
If it wasn't an emergency, Lu Qing wouldn't have spoken at this time. After all, he had planned it out beforehand to take it slow and take enough time and sincerity to impress Lin Anan.
But after being surrounded by several people yesterday, Lu Qing became a little anxious.
After this divorce...will Lin Anan still stay in the Northwest Military Region?
The answer is yes, she won’t.
If you want to retain such talents, you have to recruit them into the art troupe now before the divorce application is approved.
Even if Lin Anan and Chu Mingzhou divorced in the future, she would still be a member of the art troupe. At worst, I could apply for special housing for her and her siblings, so that they wouldn't be able to leave.
Lin Anan did not refuse directly this time. She glanced at Lu Qing, then at Lin Zihuai who was full of expectation, and hesitated.
She knew that joining the art troupe was a rare opportunity for Lin Zihuai. He loved music and longed for a bigger stage to show himself, and Jiang Tong was gone.
Maybe to others, Jiang Tong just made a mistake and was sent to the development zone to do renovation and construction. It was not a big deal at all, and she was just a small figure.
Only Lin Anan knew that she was the original heroine, a person with great luck, and the one who controlled the direction of the plot.
But Jiang Tong really left!
In other words, everything can be changed and hard work is useful.
In this case, why not give Lin Zihuai more possibilities?
Lin Anan pursed her lips, hesitating about how to start the conversation.
Lu Qingxian interrupted with a smile, "Don't rush to reject me, think about it carefully! We are also friends. You know, if you join the art troupe, I will definitely not treat you unfairly..."
Lu Qing tried his best to adjust his volume, speaking speed, and attitude to the best.
Lin Anan laughed at what she saw.
"sister?"
Lin Anan glanced at Lin Zihuai and ignored him. She turned to look at Lu Qing, straightened her expression, and said seriously, "Coach Lu, thank you for your affirmation of us. As for the question of joining the art troupe, I will let Zihuai think about it carefully."
Lu Qing's smile paused, "What about you..."
"Forget it. My health is too poor and I need to rest well."
Lu Qing's smile faded, and then he sighed deeply.
Lin Anan said politely: "If you need my help at that time, I will definitely do my best to help you."
If this had been said in the past, it would have been completely within Lu Qing's calculations, and he would have been very happy to hear it.
But now he thinks differently!
He felt that Lin Anan was just being polite. Once she got divorced and left, how could he still feel obliged to do so?
"Don't worry, you all should think about it carefully. I will wait for your good news."
Aunt Chu winked at Chu Minglan, and then politely said to Lu Qing: "Little Lu, stay for lunch. Aunt Chu will make you your favorite stewed pork ribs with potatoes."
"Okay, I came here just for my aunt's cooking skills. I also brought some wine with me, and I wanted to have a drink with Mingzhou. I didn't expect that he would actually go and see the leader off in person."
Aunt Chu and Chu Minglan got up and went to the kitchen to prepare lunch, leaving a few people chatting in the main hall.
"Have you adapted to the Northwest? I suffered a lot when I first came here. I couldn't adapt to the food, accommodation, and weather. I couldn't get used to the local climate as soon as I arrived..."
Lu Qing always smiles at everyone and seems to have a good personality. But in fact, he is a smiling tiger and it is difficult to get along with others.
