Chapter 373 Fixed Project

Lin Xiangnan was criticized, but he showed no sign of remorse. Instead, he complained about his elder brother.

"Your life is already pretty bloody. The relationship experiences of me and my younger brother combined are not as rich as yours."

"I had one when I went to the countryside. I had another one when I was at the steel mill. You probably had one when you went abroad to study, too."

"Very good. You looked away but didn't dare to refute. You really had that when you were studying abroad."

Lin Xiangdong looked helpless, "You are lying to me. Yes, I did, but we are separated. We took different paths in life and there is no way we can be together. She is Chinese and has no plans to return to China."

"I was wondering why my life is so boring. It turns out that all the peach blossoms scattered by our ancestors fell on you alone." Lin Xiangnan looked resentful.

"Don't make a fuss. Your Gu Zhenhua is worth two. You're luckier than me." Lin Xiangdong said honestly, "When I reached the legal age for marriage, I felt I should get married. Until now, I'm still single."

Those who want to play no longer have the opportunity. Those who don't want to play can't settle down.

Lin Xiangnan looked at him and asked suspiciously, "The situation is different now. You got a raise again. You don't want to rekindle your relationship with Sun Xiaodie, do you? She and my mother were at loggerheads with each other! If they meet again, they might even fight."

"No, no." Lin Xiangdong was overwhelmed. "It's been so many years, and it's all over. Can you please stop imagining it?"

"You were the first one to mention her." Lin Xiangnan said righteously, "I just have a reasonable suspicion."

To be honest, Lin Xiangnan was not sure about Lin Xiangdong's marriage. At the beginning, Lin Xiangnan thought that the first two candidates were definitely this one, and she was quite concerned about them. Now, she is disappointed...

Nowadays, when people are dating, they basically aim to get married.

She and Gu Zhenhua fell in love with each other, and after getting to know each other for a while, they got engaged and the marriage was settled. Even if they separated after the engagement, it didn't have much impact. The main reason was that Gu Zhenhua was in the army and couldn't get in touch with any girls. It was not like the later generations with developed Internet and mobile phones, where people could have online romances without meeting each other. Soldiers nowadays were all honest.

In comparison, people like Lin Xiangdong, who have had several serious relationships, seem out of tune with this era.

"Brother, are you sure nothing happened? You are innocent, right?" Lin Xiangnan said, "I want to recommend you to my classmates and friends. If you really have something wrong, just let me know. I promise not to interfere."

Lin Xiangdong gritted his teeth and said, "Can you trust me a little more?"

In Lin Xiangnan's suspicious eyes, Lin Xiangdong explained: "I'm just a little strange. Where I went to the countryside, having a second child only requires a fine. Sun Xiaodie has the money, but she doesn't seem to have taken it out. I heard that she doesn't seem to like this daughter, so I'm worried about this child."

The policy requires one child, but the degree of leniency of the policy varies from place to place. In Sun Xiaodie's case, if the first child is a girl, she can secretly have a second child, but she will be fined 300 yuan.

For an ordinary working-class family, it would take a long time to save up 300 yuan, excluding living expenses and child-rearing expenses. It would take at least four or five years for a rural family to save up, even more so if there were many laborers in the family.

After spending so many years together in the countryside, Lin Xiangdong knew that Sun Xiaodie was a bit ruthless and decisive.

Lin Xiangxi picked up a child who was deliberately lost, which made Lin Xiangdong worry about the child's fate.

What he didn't tell his family was that he had secretly inquired about Sun Xiaodie's situation many times before, and he had even confirmed the date when Sun Xiaodie would give birth repeatedly.

"That child was born one month apart from Dabao and Xiaobao. I heard that she looks like her father, not like Sun Xiaodie..."

Although he knew that the child was not his, because he had once cared about her, when he heard about Xiao Taozi's experience, he suddenly thought of the child.

"Don't worry about other people's children. You should get married quickly and have one of your own." Lin Xiangnan complained.

As soon as the topics of urging marriage and having children came up, Lin Xiangdong instantly became obedient. He stopped talking about children, quietly picked up his notebook and pretended to be very busy.

"No more talking. I'm preparing lessons. You go and do your own thing. When you're out, call Dabao and Xiaobao over. I'll try teaching the get out of class first."

Studying abroad is very popular now, so Lin Xiangdong took a part-time job teaching English at a night school. With a resume of studying abroad, being a foreign language training teacher is a perfect match for his major.

Lin Xiangdong's future career plan is to be a teacher, but he has no teaching experience before, so he captures Dabao and Xiaobao to serve as strong men and become his students.

He also wanted to teach Hu Meili.

But when he made the request, Hu Meili rolled her eyes at him and rejected him mercilessly.

Dabao and Xiaobao are better. They are positive, proactive, enthusiastic, learn quickly, and it gives a great sense of accomplishment to teach them.

During the two years abroad, Lin Xiangdong practiced his spoken English very hard, and his accent is very pure. He is not afraid of his children being taught incorrectly when he leaves them to him.

"Brother, when you teach them, please correct their Mandarin as well. Their Mandarin has been distorted by their mother, and they utter out-of-tune words from time to time." Lin Xiangnan made the request bluntly.

"This is a small problem. If everyone in the family speaks Mandarin more, the two babies will change quickly."

There are several college students in the family, so the two children will never lack teachers. Sometimes, when the adults are too idle, the two children are still in high demand.

But Gu Zhenhua was still worried about his child's education. Even on the front line, he did not forget to remind Lin Xiangnan to supervise the child's physical exercise.

Especially Lin Xiangnan, he should take the lead. When he has nothing to do, he should take the children for a run, practice boxing, and keep fit. It is not good for the body to sit and do research all the time.

Lin Xiangnan pretended not to see this content. It was impossible to exercise on purpose. When he had free time, he would go shopping and occasionally run into a small thief and fight with him. The intensity of exercise was enough. There was no need to exercise on purpose.

But when he comes across content he wants to watch, Lin Xiangnan's eyes are still pretty good.

For example, Gu Zhenhua reminded that when returning home, don’t forget to beat your elder brother Gu Zhenguo.

It doesn't matter if you are outside, but as long as you go home, you can't forget your dear big brother at home. You must see him. The fixed project every year cannot be missed, otherwise Gu family members will not learn their lesson.

After reading the letter, Lin Xiangnan laughed out loud, "You are really a loving family. You are still thinking about me on the front line. I am moved by it."

The sixth brother Gu Zhenjun also received this task and was eager to get started.

"Sister-in-law, you don't have to show up. I'll do it for you. I'll beat you and your brother together."
