Chapter 72: Some Skill
"My eldest brother is getting married the day after tomorrow. Jianguo, you come with me." Lin Shuyi held Zhou Jianguo's arm and almost leaned against him.
Apart from her eldest sister and brother-in-law, her parents have only seen photos of her potential partner. She thinks her partner is no worse than her second sister's partner. Her second sister's partner is just a little taller.
In other aspects, she is fine and her partner is also very good-looking.
Zhou Jianguo nodded, "Okay, let's go."
Lin Shuyin and Shen Guannan slept for a while and woke up at four o'clock.
"My thigh muscles hurt." Lin Shuyin moved her legs.
Shen Guannan smiled, "Wife, I'll give you a massage tonight."
Lin Shuyin rolled her eyes at him and said, "Press me from head to toe, and massage my scalp too."
"Roger that, Chief."
"I don't think I got enough sleep. I'm still sleepy." Lin Shuyin yawned.
After leaving the army, she felt as if she had become loose and lazy.
Shen Guannan, "Sleep well at night, this is how you sleep in the afternoon." You can't sleep too long at noon, one hour is enough, you will feel sleepy if you sleep too much.
"Um"
"Guan Nan, we will go to my brother's banquet the day after tomorrow, and then we can go back the day after tomorrow. There is nothing to do here, and I will take you around tomorrow."
"Actually, there's nothing interesting here. It's not like the capital."
Her hometown is not the capital of Sichuan Province, but only a third-tier city in later generations.
Shen Guannan, "I'll listen to you arrange my wife."
The two of them washed their faces, tidied up their appearance, and came to the Lin family.
Father Lin was there too, "Dad, have you taken leave too?"
Father Lin: "Yes, your mother and I have both taken leave."
Mother Lin was very happy. "Shuyin Guannan, do you two want to eat anything? Mom will make it for you. I was in a hurry at noon and didn't make anything delicious."
Lin Shuyin was not polite and listed a series of dishes.
"Mom, I want to eat grilled fish, Kung Pao chicken, spicy chicken, mouth-watering chicken, crispy pork, steamed spareribs, and stir-fried kidney." She saw a pair of pork kidneys in the kitchen.
After that, she asked, "Guan Nan, what about you? Don't be polite, my mom is a great cook."
Shen Guannan: "I can do anything."
Mother Lin listened and wondered why the girl chose all the oil-intensive dishes. The spicy chicken had to be fried, as did the crispy pork and grilled fish. Forget it, it was rare for the child to come back.
She said, "Okay, Mom will do it for you."
At noon, Lin's mother didn't sleep and went to the market to buy vegetables. She bought a chicken, a pair of pork kidneys, a few pounds of ribs, and some other vegetables.
She originally planned to stew the chicken, but the second daughter said she wanted to eat spicy chicken, Gong Bao chicken, and mouth-watering chicken, so she decided not to stew it.
Lin Shuyin smiled, "Mom, thank you for your hard work."
What a picture of a loving mother and a filial son.
She was sure that Lin's mother did this only for Shen Guannan's sake. If she were alone, she would definitely not do it.
There were many people having dinner in the evening. The eldest son and his wife came over, and the second son also came with his girlfriend. Mother Lin planned to cook ten dishes to cool down the room.
Grilled fish, Kung Pao chicken, spicy chicken, mouth-watering chicken, steamed spare ribs, crispy pork, and stir-fried kidney. Those are seven in total, and they’re all meat.
Lin's mother decided to make the remaining three dishes vegetarian.
Shen Guannan is a diligent son-in-law. When Lin's mother cooks, he goes in to help, which makes Lin's mother happy and he praises it to Lin Shuyin over and over again.
"Shuyin, you've found a good partner. Your eldest sister has been married to your eldest brother-in-law for two years, and your eldest brother-in-law has never been to the kitchen once."
Lin Shuyin smiled, "Why, are you satisfied with your second son-in-law?"
Mother Lin gave a thumbs up and said, "I am satisfied. Very satisfied. I wish this was my son."
Lin Shuyin was speechless, "Mom, you can't raise a son like this."
Forest construction is like the kind of bad bamboo that produces good shoots.
She had tested the character values of several members of her family, and their scores were all around 50 points, except for Lin Jianshe. No one passed. Of course, the system said that it was rare to find people with scores above 60 points, and ordinary people scored around 50 points.
I also said that failing doesn’t mean you will cheat or do something in the future, you are just an ordinary person.
Go take a photo at Prince Yan's place, and you'll see that it's neither pure white nor pure black, but mixed.
Lin's mother said, "What are you talking about? Your elder brother, your younger brother, and you, what's the difference between you two?"
"If you were put in a crowd, you would still be shining."
Lin Shuyin, "........"
Don't exaggerate like that. Among the five children of the Lin family, only the original owner and his younger brother Lin Jianshe are more outstanding in appearance, and the others are just average looking.
"Let's not talk about the other kids, let's talk about you. You are so beautiful, and you sing so beautifully. You inherited this from me, you know. When I was young, I sang very well too."
Lin Shuyin didn't believe it. Lin's mother said, "Don't disbelieve it."
Lin Shuyin chuckled. Lin's mother said, "Let's not talk about anything else. Just look at your appearance. I haven't let you down."
"If you grow up to be like the daughter of the Wang family next door, not only the battalion commander, but even the soldiers won't look down on you."
The daughter of Old Wang had a flat nose, thick lips, dark skin, and small eyes. She looked very unsatisfactory.
Lin Shuyin had no way to refute what her mother said, because appearance is always the key. If she really grew up to be like the daughter of the Wang family next door, Shen Guannan probably wouldn't even look at her.
Of course she is too. If Shen Guannan was ugly, she would not marry him even if his character value was 1000+, because she would not be able to bring herself to kiss him.
However, Lin Shuyin still insisted, "Mom, he was attracted by my singing."
Lin's mother sighed, "Without your face, no matter how good your singing voice is, people won't choose you."
Lin Shuyin didn't want to talk anymore. She came out of the kitchen and walked to Shen Guannan's side. Shen Guannan looked at her and hesitated to speak, "What's wrong, wife?"
Lin Shuyin shook her head and said, "Nothing." She stopped asking such childish and inexplicable questions.
At six o'clock, all factories go off work.
Sister Lin, her brother-in-law, and Lin Shuyi hurried home. After getting off work at the machinery factory, Lin Jianye also went to the supply and marketing cooperative to pick up his target Qian Xianghong.
"You said your second sister came back with her boyfriend?" Qian Xianghong sat on the back seat of Lin Jianye's bicycle.
Lin Jianye, "Yes, they arrived yesterday."
Qian Xianghong, "How is it? Your second sister's boyfriend, I heard he's a battalion commander, right?" Lin Jianye had never shown Qian Xianghong the photo.
Lin Jianye, "Very good, I'll be home soon, you'll know when you see me."
Qian Xianghong, "I have to say that your second sister is quite capable."
He was able to get into the military art troupe on his own ability, and within less than a year of joining the troupe he found a battalion commander as his partner. Most people don't have this ability.
Lin Jianye smiled, "I also think that among our five children, she is the most capable and does great things without making any noise."
