Chapter 401 He is trustworthy
"But..." Lin Anan lowered her voice and selectively revealed the details of the Tang City earthquake, omitting the parts that were difficult to accept, and only said that the dream was like being there.
"It was a serious earthquake, the damage was no less severe than the dam collapse in Heshi! There were ruins everywhere, and the cries were earth-shaking... Mingzhou, this happened in the North China earthquake zone, which is thousands of miles away from the northwest, but perhaps..."
Chu Mingzhou's expression gradually became serious. He let go of her hand and looked at her. "North China? After the Haicheng earthquake in 1974, the central government did strengthen monitoring in North China. But according to military intelligence, no abnormal reports have been received recently."
Lin Anan's eyes turned red again due to anxiety. The fetus in her belly seemed to sense her emotions and suddenly moved violently.
"Hiss~"
Chu Mingzhou immediately put his hand on her belly. The movement under his palm made him frown slightly: "Don't worry, calm down first."
He turned around and poured a cup of warm water, and handed it to her lips. "Well, after the New Year, I will apply to the military department and contact the North China Military Region in the name of the brother military region to inquire about the situation."
After Lin Anan drank some water, her emotions gradually calmed down. "Do you really believe me?"
"Well, I believe you."
Chu Mingzhou is not an impulsive person, and the fact that he has come this far and become the youngest regiment commander in the Northwest Military Region shows that he has extraordinary thoughts and skills.
He naturally felt that his young wife was abnormal, and his mind was full of complicated thoughts. He felt that she had a secret, a secret that even he could not tell...
Chu Mingzhou reached out to wipe away the tears from the corners of Lin Anan's eyes, and gently stroked her flushed cheeks with his fingertips, as if he was comforting a frightened cub.
The light in the room was dim, and a tiny spark formed on the wick, casting his shadow on the wall, making him look particularly solid and reliable.
"I'll take care of everything, don't worry." His voice was as low as an old tape. He held her hand and placed it on his heart.
Lin Anan looked up at him, and the light in his pupils shattered into two small moons.
She recalled the time when the dam collapsed in Heshi. He came to her regardless of everything. His body was covered with wounds and his hands were torn to pieces...
He really believes in himself.
He is also really trustworthy.
Even though he knew that what he said was feudal superstition, he still took it upon himself.
"Tang City is located at the intersection of the Tanlu Fault Zone and the North China Plain Seismic Zone. Its geological structure is inherently fragile. I want to make friends with Sister He, and I also want to share data across the country..."
What she didn't say was that before the Tangshi earthquake, there had actually been many small earthquakes and abnormal phenomena in history, but they were all ignored.
"Okay, I will contact the reconnaissance company of the North China Military Region on the pretext that I need terrain data for military exercises and apply for an internal data set for 'earthquake monitoring and joint military and civilian defense'.
But remember, don't rush into it. The current situation doesn't allow for any negligence. You can't mention these things to anyone, just keep them to yourself."
Lin Anan nodded, "There is still more than half a year before the incident. You must keep this in mind. If...if you find anything unusual, you must take action."
She looked up at him, the light from the snow outside the window making her eyes sparkle.
Chu Mingzhou hugged her again, resting his chin on the top of her head, and whispered, "Don't worry. The northwest is too far from Tang City. If something really happens, we won't be able to rescue in time. But I can give you an early warning in the name of the military region."
Afraid that she wouldn't believe him, he continued to comfort her, "Don't forget, we are soldiers! Our duty is to find light in darkness and hold on to hope in chaos."
"Yeah, I believe you too."
As the night deepened, the snow fell heavier.
Lin Anan gradually fell asleep in Chu Mingzhou's arms. She heard him whisper in her ear in a daze: "Anan, you make me unable to see clearly..."
The next morning.
The sunlight shines through the icy flowers on the window paper, weaving a golden net on the kang.
When Lin Anan woke up, Chu Mingzhou was already dressed and said, "I'm going to the military district for a meeting."
After saying that, he leaned over and placed a kiss on her forehead.
"You go ahead. I'll call my parents later."
Chu Mingzhou hummed lightly, "I have given all the instructions, just let Zihuai accompany you."
"good."
She watched him walk out of the room, a puff of snow rising from the hem of his military coat.
Suddenly I felt that as long as I had this person with me, I could weather any storm.
The second day of the Chinese New Year is a big day to go back to one’s parents’ home. The young wives in the military district set out early in the morning to go back to their parents’ home, and it was very lively.
Lin Zihuai also had a lot to say to his parents, and he was even more anxious than her, the daughter who was getting married out of town. "Du Juan, come with us! Let her talk to our parents, and I'll tell them about the lively scene on the day of the engagement..."
Chu Minglan smiled so hard that her eyes curved when she heard this.
Chu Mingyu asked to go together, "I miss my aunt, I want to call her too."
"Okay, let's go together."
After lunch, the family walked slowly to the telephone room together.
“Beep…beep…”
Lin Anan held the receiver and waited for a while.
"Hello, An An?" Lin's father's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Dad, it's me, Happy New Year!"
"Okay, okay, everything is fine with us. We have received all the things you sent. But how did you send money to my parents? This is inappropriate..."
Father Lin didn't dare to say the amount. He just felt that the money was too much and they didn't dare to use it at all!
"Dad, that's the money I earned from writing books, not Chu Mingzhou's. This money was agreed upon by Zihuai and I to build a new house for our family. I'll pay 2,000 and Zihuai will pay 1,000. This is our intention."
Father Lin was silent for a while.
He could understand his daughter making money, but with his son's appearance... could he still make money? ?
Lin Zihuai was so anxious that he was spinning around, "Sister, tell Dad that it's true. I will work hard to make money and pay you back. The house will be considered built by me."
"Yes, you built them all. You built them to show your filial piety to your parents."
Lin Zihuai nodded with satisfaction, "That's right."
Father Lin didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard this. "Okay, since Zihuai is paying, we won't be polite."
Seeing that he agreed to this, Lin's mother hurriedly tried to stop him, "No, An An and Zi Huai's money didn't come from the wind. We can't take it. I'll bring it back to them when I go to the northwest."
Lin Anan pretended to let out an "ouch".
"Anna, what's wrong with you?"
"Dad, please tell Mom to stop being mad at me. Building a house is supposed to be a good thing, but she made it so awkward. I feel bad."
Mother Lin quickly snatched the phone from Father Lin and slapped her own mouth, "My stupid mouth, I am uneducated and I can't speak! Our An An is right, it's a good thing, a great thing. Let's do it! I'll ask your father to contact the relatives to do it after the New Year!"
Lin Anan curled her eyes, feeling warm in her heart, "Well, build the best one. If there is not enough money, let Zihuai take it."
Lin Zihuai looked serious and patted his chest, "No problem, I'll pay for the shortfall."
After saying this, he glanced at Dujuan, fearing that she would be unhappy.
Du Juan looked normal and nodded affirmatively, "I have saved some money over the years."
