Chapter 3 Chu Mingzhou, I am your wife
After verification, the two were led to Chu Mingzhou's residence.
Seeing that Lin Anan looked sick, the soldier took the initiative to take the luggage of various sizes from the two people with a warm attitude.
"Auntie, why didn't you come back with Captain Chu? Didn't he go to the train station early in the morning?" asked the soldier.
Mother Lin blinked and it took her a while to react. She wanted to say that Chu Mingzhou didn't know about this at all... but she stopped talking immediately, "We didn't run into each other. We just happened to meet a fellow villager and he brought us here."
"So that's how it is."
Lin Anan didn't respond to the two people's words. She looked around carefully, with curiosity in her eyes and a feeling of emotion in her heart.
The Northwest Military Region is truly worthy of being the largest military region in China. It was quite impressive even in the 1970s.
A wide main road extends straight through the compound, with neat rows of bungalows scattered in an orderly manner. Occasionally, you can see a two- or three-storey building. The exterior walls of the houses are mostly greyish white, and the roofs are weighed down by thick snow, with a few red tiles showing through.
After walking for about four or five minutes, the soldier pointed to a small bungalow on the far left with smoke coming out of its chimney and said, "That's it."
"Finally we're here."
It was dinner time now, and many people had seen Lin Anan and were curious about who she was!
Seeing her stop in front of Chu Mingzhou's house, everyone felt it was strange...
"Lan Mei'er, your sister-in-law is here."
The soldier's voice was very loud. Not only the people in the house heard it, but also the neighbors who were watching the fun heard it.
who?
Lan Meir’s sister-in-law?
Isn’t that... Chu Mingzhou’s wife?
One stone can cause a thousand ripples.
Not only Chu Minglan was confused, but everyone else in the compound was also unable to react!
Is this girl who even walks so gracefully really Captain Chu’s wife?
Didn’t Captain Chu just submit his divorce application?
His ungrateful wife...didn't she threaten to commit suicide every day to divorce him right after graduating from college? What is she doing here now?
As soon as Chu Minglan opened the door, Lin's mother helped Lin Anan in and sat down directly in the main hall.
Lin Anan smiled at the dazed girl, then raised her hand and patted her chest gently, trying to ease the discomfort.
The weather in the Northwest is not only cold, but also extremely dry. Just breathing in will make your throat itch badly.
But out of politeness, Lin Anan still held back her cough.
"You are Xiaolan, right? You are such a pretty girl. Do you have any hot water at home? Go and pour a glass for your sister-in-law."
"ah?"
Mother Lin acted very familiar and politely sent the soldier away. She also stuffed a handful of candies into his arms, more than ten in total!
The soldier didn't want it, but she just said two words and asked him to accept it.
Chu Minglan also had a handful of stuff stuffed into her arms, not even giving her time to be afraid.
"Are you cooking dinner? Xiaolan is really capable! Auntie will do it, you just go and get your sister-in-law a cup of hot water. She's not in good health, so please keep an eye on her!"
"By the way, when will Mingzhou come back?"
Chu Minglan had never seen such a scene before. She opened her mouth, feeling a little helpless. She hurried to pour a cup of hot water and replied softly, "My brother will be back soon."
When she turned around and saw Lin Anan, she became even more timid!
I put the water on the table and gently pushed it towards her, and I couldn't help but peek...
She is so pretty.
But, but she is not a good person, she is very bad, extremely bad!
The vigilance in Chu Minglan's eyes could not escape Lin Anan's eyes.
What thoughts can an eleven-year-old girl hide? Her likes and dislikes are written on her face.
"Thanks."
Lin Anan didn't care about her thoughts at all. She only knew that she felt dizzy, probably because she was tired, a little bit like she was lacking oxygen, and she was very hungry. She took a few sips of warm water, and as the warm water went down her throat, she felt much more comfortable.
"What are you here for?" Chu Minglan hesitated for a long time, and then, as if she had encouraged herself, she asked in a low voice.
"Hmm?" Lin Anan raised her eyelids slightly, "I came to find my man, of course I want to live with him, what else?"
Chu Minglan's eyes widened slightly, as if she had heard something extremely outrageous!
"But... aren't you and my brother getting a divorce? Why are you still here now? You, you can't be so excessive."
Too much?
Lin Anan frowned and thought about it.
It seems to be the case!
The original owner had sent a letter to Chu Mingzhou half a year ago, the general meaning of which was... that she wanted to pursue freedom and get a divorce after graduating from university.
She still gave the letter to Lin Zihuai to send at the post office.
It seems to have been sent.
Chu Minglan was "confronting" Lin Anan! Lin's mother hurried in, picked up a bag and took it to the kitchen, and stuffed a can of fruit into the little girl's hand, "Oh, there's still a can left, Xiaolan, take it and try it, the meal will be ready soon."
Her voice was so loud that it drowned out the sound of the gate opening.
Chu Minglan glanced at Lin Anan in panic. It seemed that the courage she had finally mustered was destroyed by the can again...
"I had my reasons for asking for a divorce before. Your brother and I have a revolutionary friendship. I love such an outstanding man like him, so how could I bear to divorce him?" Lin Anan talked nonsense without blushing or beating her heart, and then continued to drink water with her head down.
The sky was dyed golden red by the setting sun. Chu Mingzhou walked into the house in the afterglow. His tall figure just covered the little person sitting there.
Lin Anan felt that the light in front of her eyes suddenly dimmed. She looked up and met a pair of overly cold and deep eyes!
Chu Mingzhou himself looks even better than described in the original novel, with a carefully carved face, excellent bone structure, handsome features, a pair of deep eyes that seem to see through everything, a high nose bridge, and strong lip lines.
He is very tall, about 190cm tall, with a slender and strong body, and almost perfect proportions. His bronze skin exudes a healthy glow, and with a neat short hair, his whole temperament is masculine and sharp, and he is really good-looking.
"elder brother."
Chu Minglan saw her elder brother coming back, and she ran to hide behind him, feeling relieved. But when she lowered her eyes and saw the canned food and candy in her hands, she felt very uncomfortable.
Lin Anan hesitated for a moment and was the first to say hello, "Hello, Chu Mingzhou, I am your wife, Lin Anan."
Chu Mingzhou's expression was obviously stunned! Chu Minglan was also stunned...
Before he could react, Lin Anan started coughing again, and her little face turned pale in an instant.
Chu Mingzhou narrowed his eyes slightly and recognized who was in front of him.
It was the female comrade who asked for help at the train station. She ran away faster than a rabbit...
His daughter-in-law Lin Anan?
Chu Mingzhou suddenly thought of something, his face became even gloomier, his thin lips were tightly pursed, and even his jawline was tense.
Lin Anan saw him glance at her coldly, and that look was not friendly...
But she didn't have time to care about him now, she felt like she was drifting away due to coughing~~
"Ahem, water. Warm water."
Maybe it was because of the unfamiliar climate and water. My sick body felt even worse, with palpitations, chest tightness, itchy throat, and pain all over my body!
When Lin's mother came in with the dishes, she was dumbfounded. What she saw was... her cheap son-in-law, who was carefully serving water to her daughter?
