Chapter 112 Chapter 112 This is clearly Lin Lin’s arrangement…
Just for these few pieces of cake, Jiang Shuangshuang decided to get along well with the sisters in the opposite courtyard.
With cakes as the staple food and the delicious meals made by Feng Sanxi, she ate a little more today. In the end, she took Sanxi for a walk around to help digest the food.
"Let's go learn it together in a couple of days, and then let big sister try it too. I'm sure she'll like it too."
"Okay." Feng Sanxi nodded immediately. She really enjoyed cooking and liked to think about these things at home, making ordinary ingredients taste better. Not only would it make the family eat better, but she could also eat better.
Anyway, she couldn't stand her mother throwing all the ingredients into the pot, so everything tasted the same. Obviously, if she just watched more and learned more, she could use the same ingredients to make different delicious dishes. If she could have two delicious meals after working hard every day, wouldn't life be more promising?
It's a pity that she has so little experience.
There were only so many people in the team, and most of them cooked the same way as her mother did, as long as the food was filling and they didn't care whether it tasted good or not. There was really very little she could learn.
And she herself had no chance to go out and broaden her horizons.
Except for a few who can learn a little bit, basically everyone has to figure it out on their own.
How could she refuse the opportunity to learn cooking now?
I can't wait to go there.
And Shuangshuang was right, this mushroom pie is really delicious, and the ingredients are simple. The outside is made of cornmeal crispy cake, each layer is baked very crispy, and inside is a thick layer of chopped mushrooms. I don’t know how it is prepared, but the taste is fragrant and tender, and it is really no less fragrant than meat pie.
She said softly, "I don't know what spices are put into this mushroom, but it always smells very fragrant. It also tastes familiar, but I just can't remember what it is."
"You tasted it too?" Jiang Shuangshuang also tasted it and announced the answer directly, "If I guessed correctly, it should be sesame oil."
It came out at the first bite.
It just so happened that she had eaten a lot before, so she could taste it right away even though there was no trace of sesame seeds in the mushroom sauce.
It is really nice to use sesame oil to enhance the flavor, but this stuff may not be available even if you have money. There are only a few common oils on the market, or you can use homemade lard.
She thought that she would go to the hospital opposite in two days and ask them where they bought the sesame oil. She also wanted to buy some.
Cheng Jing was not there when the three of them were having dinner.
His work was not finished yet. He had to move the furniture to the appropriate locations and then do some repairs on the courtyard. It was a lot of work anyway and he had to do it all by himself.
But there was no way, there were only four people in the yard.
The other three all had their own things to do, so two of them, one teaching and the other learning, were the most important things. No matter how tired Cheng Jing was, he never thought of calling Feng Erchuan to help. There was another one who did less work, just cleaning up, but he was embarrassed to ask a girl to do heavy work.
There is no other way but to bear it by myself.
I just wanted to finish it quickly and have a good rest.
But no matter how busy he was or how much he wanted to rest, Cheng Jing never forgot to treat Lin Lin to a meal. When it was almost lunchtime, he happily went out with some money in his pocket.
I heard it in the compound before. It was said that Lin Lin's return from divorce made the Lin family very unhappy. She got married without saying goodbye to her family and just packed her luggage and left. She got divorced without saying goodbye to her family and just came back with her luggage.
Maybe she was angry inside, so it was none of her business.
If Lin Lin hadn't been able to find a job for herself, she wouldn't know how she would live.
In Cheng Jing's eyes, Lin Lin's life was hard anyway.
But he came in a hurry this time and didn't bring much money with him, so he couldn't support Lin Lin's life.
But there was no rush to support her. After all, why would he be afraid of not meeting her again after meeting her this time? He thought that Lin Lin looked thinner than before, so he could treat her to a few meals to help her gain some weight, and then he could support her more after he went back and saved some money.
Friends helping friends, isn't that natural?
Right? That should be right.
He has been doing this for so many years, what's wrong?
So Cheng Jing didn't even eat. He just went to the kitchen to get some water, cleaned himself up, and then went out.
Although he had never been here, he had actually asked where Lin Lin worked.
Maybe she wanted to be closer to her target, so she chose a factory near the army. Lin Lin had a diploma, was good at singing and dancing, and knew how to write poetry and articles. In short, she was strong in every aspect, otherwise she would not have been able to get an office job in a tractor factory near the army.
That was the first crawler tractor factory in the country. It was established less than a year ago and is one of the key projects in the country.
The crawler tractor produced here is the Dongfanghong model, which is also the first crawler tractor developed and manufactured in the country. Those who can work in this factory are not ordinary people.
Lin Lin was able to get in on her own, so why doesn't that show her ability?
Excellent people are excellent everywhere!
But is it that it has nothing to do with it?
That's not necessarily the case.
If Lin Lin entered the factory based on her skills, then it really only depends on her ability. The Dongfanghong Tractor Factory was not the first tractor factory in the country, but it was definitely the first factory to develop crawler tractors. You can see its importance. The technical workers in the factory are all talents recruited from all over the country, and even the apprentices have high academic qualifications and high experience!
But this may not be the case for some other positions.
For example, there are workers who are on duty, and there are arts workers like Lin Lin, who are responsible for choreographing activities and making blackboard newspapers in the factory. Because the factory is very close to the army, the manpower input for this type of job is either the art soldiers of the army who have transferred to other jobs or the family members of the army.
If Lin Lin didn't have this connection, she would definitely not be able to enter the tractor factory.
There are many family members of the troops waiting for jobs, and there are also retired arts soldiers. How can there be so many positions waiting for outsiders to take them?
It’s because of the Lin family’s connections.
Even if he was angry, she was still his daughter. How could he just stand by and do nothing?
Cheng Jing didn’t know, but Lin Lin knew it very well in her heart.
She knew that her family would not really give up on her, so she divorced and went home without hesitation after being wronged by her in-laws. She also knew that her family would not really ignore her, so she easily found a job in a factory near the military unit.
But she has never been a high-profile person. She knew it herself but never told anyone else.
She didn't care what others thought of her. She only knew that she had this job and had barely caught the Gu family's eye. Otherwise, she wouldn't even have a chance to get in.
"Sister Xiaolin, shall we go to the cafeteria together?"
Hearing this, Lin Lin didn't even raise her head and directly refused, "No."
Tian Tao didn't give up and came over again, "Go ahead, go ahead. I brought some jam from home. Didn't you like it last time? This is a new batch this year. You can try it first. If you like it, I'll give you a bottle."
Lin Lin said nothing.
She doesn't like these sweet sauces, but Gu Xiumin loves sweets.
Tian Tao immediately saw that she was moved, and at the same time she felt a little anxious, so she immediately told her purpose, "Sister Xiaolin, can I lead the dance team at the annual meeting? You also know the situation of my family. If I can't take advantage of this opportunity to become a regular employee, I will hardly be able to survive."
Tian Tao didn't care whether the person in front of her was happy or not. She went up to her and hooked her arm, pretending to be on good terms with her. "My ex-brother-in-law is a bastard. He ignored me after he got married. If my sister hadn't saved money to support him, how could he have come to the army? As a result, as soon as my sister died, he married a new wife. He would rather support the other person's sister than ignore my family. Do you think he is cruel?"
Lin Lin was not interested in other people's family affairs. "The team leader has already been selected."
"Just talk to her and let me do it this time." Tian Tao said confidently, "Xiao Xia is getting married soon, and being the lead dancer will only make her exposed to the public and upset her in-laws. It would be better to let me do it. I will perform well in front of the leaders once, which will bring honor to you and help you get a permanent job."
Lin Lin curled her lips.
The words sound nice, but who doesn't know what she is thinking?
It was simply that Xiao Xia was praised by the leader when she led the dance during the Mid-Autumn Festival last time, and the leader even arranged for his nephew to meet her. Once this was accomplished, Xiao Xia would be able to become the daughter-in-law of the leader's family. Didn't this make Tian Tao interested?
As for not liking to be in public, that’s just a bad habit!
If the leader really cared, how could he match Xiao Xia with his nephew? Not to mention discussing marriage now. And if he really didn't like it, why did Tian Tao rush to lead the dance?
However, even though she knew it, Lin Lin didn't say it directly. This matter had nothing to do with her, and she didn't want to stand up for anyone or offend others because of something that had nothing to do with her.
Although Tian Tao seems to be sweet-talking now, she is very good at slandering people in private. It’s not that she says nonsense, but just take the “former brother-in-law” she mentioned as an example. If it weren’t for such a “former brother-in-law”, how could Tian Tao, a rural migrant who graduated from junior high school, have entered the tractor factory?
Even as a temporary worker, she wouldn't have been able to get in if it weren't for the fact that she was a military family member.
She got a job by relying on connections, but the next moment she turned around and cursed the person for being evil. She was not afraid of ruining her relationship with such a person, but she was worried that Tian Tao would slander her in places she didn't know about, and the incident would make the Gu family suffer. Then she would have to worry about how to clear herself of the grievances.
So along the way, no matter what Tian Tao said, she didn't refute it, but just agreed with a few words from time to time.
When we reached the canteen door, someone said, "Comrade Lin, someone is looking for you at the door."
"Looking for me?" Lin Lin guessed who it was.
If Gu Yuanwei goes on a mission and the Gu family won't take the initiative to look for her, then who else will come?
Apart from Cheng Jingbaba who was chasing after her, she couldn't think of anyone else.
Although she was angry that Cheng Jing did not speak up for her before, but when she thought about how much help Cheng Jing had given her over the years, she couldn't help but feel soft-hearted and decided to go and meet him after all.
Then he pulled Tian Tao's hand away and said to her, "You go have dinner. I have to go meet some friends. As for the lead dancer thing you mentioned, you should discuss it with Xiao Xia first. If she has no objection, I have no objection either."
Whether it was her or Xiao Xia, she didn't want to make the relationship awkward.
Since it's their own business, it's better to let them negotiate it themselves.
It really doesn't matter to her who the lead dancer is. She's just a choreographer and won't be performing on stage. It has nothing to do with her who catches the leaders' eyes.
Without waiting for Tian Tao's reply, Lin Lin turned around and left.
When I arrived at the factory gate, I saw a familiar figure there.
In order to avoid gossip, Cheng Jing even hid himself in a corner, for fear that he would affect Lin Lin's reputation.
"Why are you here?"
"Didn't I tell you before? I haven't seen you for a long time and I want to treat you to a meal."
Lin Lin glanced at him a few times and snorted softly, "Then why are you still standing here? Don't you want to eat? Let's go."
"Hey, let's go." Cheng Jing narrowed his eyes happily and hurriedly led the way. The two of them walked towards the state-owned hotel one after the other, always leaving a considerable distance between them. "I heard that if you're lucky, you can eat fresh seafood in the state-owned hotel. What do you want to eat? I'll treat you."
"Who would be willing to be treated by you?" Lin Lin glared at him. "If it weren't for our friendship over the years, and the injustice I just suffered from your sister-in-law, I wouldn't be willing to have dinner with you."
"Yes, yes, it's my fault." Cheng Jing apologized repeatedly, "Didn't I ask her for help? But she doesn't have any bad intentions, she's still a good person."
"Do you need her help?" Lin Lin frowned slightly. "Who is her family?"
"No, no, her family doesn't have a great background, but she's smart..." Cheng Jing talked about the Jiang family, and then talked about the bicycle construction, and did not forget to look forward to the future, "If this matter is done well, I can also have a seat in the commune. If you are not satisfied with your stay here in the future, you can come to my place."
Lin Lin doesn't think that place is a good place.
If nothing else, the distance is too far.
She can't go so far to work after getting married.
And what's the point of assembling a bicycle? No matter how powerful a bicycle is, can it be more powerful than a tractor?
They are the only factory in the country that produces crawler tractors.
Whether it is a monopoly or a key support project, which factory can compete?
She would be stupid to leave here and go to work in the commune.
He even looked down on the sharp-tongued woman and snorted, "It's just a bicycle assembler. If she doesn't help me, I'll find someone for you. There are so many skilled workers in the factory, any one of them will be better than her."
"You are amazing!" Cheng Jing said with admiration, "You have only been in the factory for a short time, and you have already established good relationships with the technical workers in the factory... But it is also true that you have always gotten along well with everyone since you were a child. If you hadn't led us, Bai Yuanhua and I would not have been able to integrate into the circle of the compound."
When he and Bai Yuanhua were first brought back, life was not as easy as they had imagined.
They lived in a small two-story courtyard, ate well and dressed well, but to the children of the same age in the big courtyard, they were just bumpkins from the country.
He is a little better, after all, his surname is Cheng and he is related to my parents by blood.
Bai Yuanhua, however, had nothing to do with it and was bullied by many people outside.
If you are ruthless, you can just hit him like Cheng Jin did.
But they didn't dare to complain even though they couldn't win the fight. If Lin Lin hadn't come to their rescue, they would have been bullied for who knows how long.
So that's it.
Isn't it normal for friends to help each other?
Thinking that he would support Lin Lin a little every month, Lin Lin had also helped them, helped them integrate into the circle of the compound, and now she was also thinking about connecting him with the technical workers. He shook his body with some excitement, "But will it be too much trouble? I don't bring much money now, I have to prepare a gift for the meeting, right?"
"...Then let's talk about it after the New Year." Lin Lin said indifferently. She actually wanted to help, but if she really let Cheng Jing take the lead, she didn't know how the factory would view them. Don't let the news get to the Gu family.
Let's wait until she gets married.
When the time comes, let Gu Yuanwei help, and let the two men come forward without gossiping about her.
Cheng Jing was not in a hurry anyway. He felt that it was a waste of talent for a technician to assemble bicycles to make tractors, so he might as well let his brother and sister-in-law do it first.
The two arrived at the state-owned hotel in a short while.
But they were unlucky. Not only were there no fresh seafood, but even some of the common dishes were gone.
Cheng Jing could only order three dishes at random and four steamed buns. When the dishes were served, he said, "If we don't meet this time, we'll meet next time. If you live here permanently, we'll have a chance to meet each other."
"Yeah." Lin Lin replied and ate her meal casually.
You can tell at a glance that she is dissatisfied with the food. The taste is not as good as that in the cafeteria, so she can eat more and feel fuller. But how can she be the kind of person who lacks food?
She spends a month's salary on her own, with occasional support from this person or that person. Even though every piece of clothing she wears is not cheap, she has no worries about food and drink.
Cheng Jing could tell at a glance that she was unhappy. After eating for a long time, the rice in the bowl was still there. He felt a little distressed, "Why do you eat so little? If I had known that the food was not to your taste, I should have brought two cakes just now."
He had smelled the fragrance of cakes in his brother-in-law's yard before. He was craving for them, but he couldn't help but run out to find Lin Lin. Now he didn't regret it. He just regretted that he should have shamelessly asked his brother-in-law for two pieces when he came out. "These mushroom cakes were sent from the opposite yard. They are so fragrant. But it doesn't matter. I'll ask them next time."
"Opposite courtyard?" Lin Lin raised her eyebrows. "You mean Captain Liu's house, right?"
"You know him too?" Cheng Jing thought she was really amazing. She didn't live in the army, but she knew everyone in the army, even the regiment commander knew him.
"He has a relative who works in the same office as me." Lin Lin curled her lips, "Don't bring me his mushroom cakes. No matter how delicious they are, I don't want to associate with him if he has a bad character."
"What's going on?"
"Liu Zhen used to have a girlfriend in the countryside. The female comrade saw that he was not well off, so she secretly sent him food and drink. Later, Liu Zhen went to the army and did not come back for several years. The female comrade fell ill and died..." Lin Lin said. Coincidentally, this Liu Zhen was Tian Tao's ex-brother-in-law.
Everything she knew was heard from Tian Tao.
It is not quite right to call him ex-brother-in-law. After all, Sister Tian Tao had not married Liu Zhen when she died, but they must have been secretly dating someone, otherwise how could Sister Tian Tao send food and drink to Liu Zhen? If Liu Zhen did not feel sorry for Sister Tian Tao, how could he use his identity as a soldier's family member to send Tian Tao to the tractor factory as a temporary worker?
I heard that this spot was originally supposed to belong to Liu Zhen's wife.
Later, I don't know how it came to Tian Tao. Lin Lin was not interested in these things and didn't ask too much. She just listened to what Tian Tao said.
Although I thought she might be exaggerating, the truth is probably pretty much the same.
Otherwise, why would Liu Zhen's family give Tian Tao a job for no reason? I heard that Liu Zhen's wife's job was almost decided. After all, she was a family member, and the army would give family members a quota for work every year. It was natural that it fell on Liu Zhen's wife.
But the plan was scrapped and the work target fell on Tian Tao, who had nothing to do with the task. And it was not for the sake of Tian Tao's sister. Liu Zhen must have let down her sister.
Lin Lin despises such ungrateful people the most.
He had received the kindness of sister Tian Tao, but as soon as she passed away, he married a new wife. Such a man is so heartless. And why did Tang Xiaogu suddenly marry into his family?
Who knows when the two of them will hook up, otherwise how could they get married?
Lin Lin traveled thousands of miles just for "love" in the beginning, and she went despite everyone around her opposing it, thinking that if she married for love, she would be able to live a happy life.
As a result, her married life was a mess, and it was the decision she regretted most in her life.
But even so, she still couldn't stand people doing evil things in the name of "love". Even though Liu Zhen was the regiment leader, she looked down on such a heartless person. If it weren't for his sister saving money to support him, he would have no chance of becoming the regiment leader, let alone having the chance to serve in the army.
"How could this person be like this?!" Cheng Jing frowned and echoed loudly.
"Keep your voice down!" Lin Lin interrupted him. This place was not far from the troops. Who knew if anyone sitting around knew Liu Zhen?
She didn't want to deal with this kind of person, but after all, Liu Zhen and Gu Yuanwei were in the same unit. How embarrassing would it be if they knew about it?
"I'm just angry." Cheng Jing looked embarrassed and whispered, "If I had known that family had such bad character, I would definitely not have anything to do with them."
When he returns, he will have to warn his younger brother and sister-in-law not to have any contact with them even if they live nearby. If they come into contact with people of bad character, who knows if they might get stabbed in the back one day.
They both had the same idea, and the atmosphere, which was originally a bit awkward, became more talkative under this topic.
While chatting and eating, Lin Lin actually finished the whole bowl of rice. At the end, she couldn't help but burp. She was so embarrassed that she covered her mouth and looked at the person opposite her, "Don't tell anyone!"
"Okay, okay." Cheng Jing smiled with narrowed eyes. He couldn't bear to tell anyone.
He had to keep it a secret that he had met Lin Lin here, so that Bai Yuanhua wouldn't follow him over.
Thinking of this, he felt that it was worth it no matter how tired he was. Looking back, he couldn't even remember the last time he and Lin Lin had dinner alone. It seemed like it had been a long time.
However, at this time, Cheng Jing restrained the smile on his face, became a little hesitant, and opened his mouth several times but no words came out.
"What do you want to say?" Lin Lin saw through his hesitation. How could she not see the look of wanting to say something but not being able to? However, she thought Cheng Jing wanted to say something incoherent to her, so she stopped him and said, "I have always treated you as my brother, so there are some things you should not say."
"No, no." Cheng Jing understood and waved his hands to deny that he really didn't mean that.
But after he denied it, Lin Lin was also very unhappy. It seemed that she was a little self-indulgent. She couldn't help but said unhappily: "Then what do you want to say? Is there anything we can't talk about?"
"..." Cheng Jing hesitated for a while, then stared at the expression on her face and spoke carefully: "Then I will tell you the truth, you...you must not be angry."
Lin Lin raised her eyebrows. She knew immediately that the topic was not one she loved.
I wanted to interrupt him directly, but Cheng Jing was afraid that he would not dare to speak, so he took a deep breath and blurted out, "I heard that your boyfriend has some health problems? If, if that's the case, do you want to... I don't want to hold you back, but why would such an excellent person like you find a man who can't have children?"
Lin Lin is excellent, but she is so pitiful.
The previous husband made her suffer, and the later husband spread some nonsense. His friends were so pitiful, how could he not support them?
"Who told you that?" Lin Lin pursed her lips, her eyes filled with anger and some panic.
Obviously, this was not the first time she had heard of this. She had probably heard of it a long time ago.
But the reason why she never exposed it in front of anyone was because she knew that once this matter became known to everyone, she, Lin Lin, would be greeted with countless sympathetic and mocking looks.
"I heard it from Ma Jie from the hospital." Cheng Jing looked at her cautiously. Since he had already started talking about this, he could only bite the bullet and continue, "He said that Gu Yuanwei had been dating her cousin before, but later he got hurt in an accident. People in the hospital said that it would be difficult for him to have children in the future, and they also said..."
Seeing Lin Lin’s face so gloomy for the first time, he couldn’t help but swallow nervously, “You also said…you also said that you wanted to marry him because you had a child before, and it would be a good opportunity for you to bring the child with you to take care of…”
"Shut up!" Lin Lin stood up suddenly and stared at him fiercely, ignoring the looks of the people around him. "She farted!"
Her voice became very sharp, and she wanted to shout loudly to tell everyone that this was not the case!
Even though the Gu family was in so much trouble, she insisted on marrying Gu Yuanwei. It was because she felt that Gu Yuanwei's identity could add some glory to her and make everyone think that she was not a pitiful person.
Even with a failed marriage, she is still envied by everyone!
But after Ma Jie said this, who would still envy her?
They all thought she was a particularly pitiful person. First she met the wrong person, and now she met a man who had a physical problem and couldn't have children. They even slandered her for having given birth to a child before and wanted to take the child to the Gu family to raise...
What is this?
If this matter spreads, what good reputation will she have? But this matter happened in the compound, so she can't deny it even if she wants to. She can't go back across the province just to deny it, right?
Lin Lin just felt a little dizzy.
If she hadn't had her hands on the table, she would have staggered and fallen.
She felt extremely uncomfortable when she thought about people gossiping about her in private, and everyone was gossiping about her and saying obscene things about her.
"Are...are you okay?" Cheng Jing was a little worried. If he had known Lin Lin would react so strongly, he would not have said anything. He wanted to slap himself in the face. He should not have mentioned this matter and made Lin Lin so unhappy.
But it was precisely because of his worry that this worry and sympathy was revealed in his eyes. It was this kind of look that Lin Lin could not accept the most. She bit her lip and stared at him fiercely, saying in a sharp voice: "I told you that this is not true. You are not allowed to look at me like that!"
"Okay, okay, I won't watch it. Relax, I'll support you in everything as long as you think it's good..."
"Shut up!" Lin Lin yelled angrily. She didn't care about the curious looks of the people around her at this moment. She just wanted to yell at him and deny everything.
But doesn’t the fact that she reacted so strongly mean that this thing really exists?
In fact, she already knew whether Gu Yuanwei could give birth to a child or not, because Gu Yuanwei had told her about his situation before they talked about partners. She did hesitate at that time. After all, she was still so young and had no children. She couldn't get married without having a child, right?
As time went on, everyone looked at the two of them, feeling lonely and helpless. No one had any envy in their eyes. They must have already started to feel sympathy for them.
And she couldn't accept that she didn't have children.
It’s okay when you’re young, but what about when you’re old?
Even if the two of them stayed in the army, there would always be someone to take care of them and provide for them in their old age. But she felt uneasy because they were not her own children.
The existence of blood ties makes her feel more at ease.
Just like her and her family, if she wasn’t a descendant of the Lin family, how could her family have helped her so much in private?
The reason why she was willing to be with Gu Yuanwei later.
One reason is that Gu Yuanwei is really capable. He rose to the top with almost no help from his family and has reached where he is today entirely on his own.
Just by listening to him, one can tell how capable he is and how bright his future is. If they get married, it will help ease the relationship between her and her family. With the help of her father and eldest brother, Gu Yuanwei may be able to reach a height that she dare not even imagine.
Of course, there are other candidates in the army, but it cannot be denied that even if she does not think divorce is a stain, not all men are willing to marry a divorced woman.
Gu Yuanwei doesn't care, but that doesn't mean other capable men like him don't care.
Among the group of willing men, she couldn't find another one as capable as Gu Yuanwei.
Besides, it is not as absolute as Cheng Jing said.
Gu Yuanwei was indeed injured, but he was not completely infertile.
The diagnosis from the big hospital also said that the chance of getting pregnant with it was very small, but it was not completely impossible.
If one year doesn't work, then two or three years will do. If two or three years still doesn't work, maybe by then medical technology will be more advanced and this problem can be solved.
But the doctor cannot guarantee 100% that he will be able to have children. It all depends on chance. If they are lucky, they may be able to have both a son and a daughter. Having two children in three years is not a problem.
But if you are unlucky then...
Lin Lin hesitated for a whole month, and finally had to make a choice after hitting a wall everywhere.
She was helpless because Gu Yuanwei was her best choice and there was no second choice.
So she decided to take a gamble.
She felt that her luck was not bad, and that Gu Yuanwei was in poor health while she was. She had a check-up when she got married for the first time, and the doctor said that it would not be difficult for her to have children. The reason she had not given birth yet was that she wanted to enjoy some time alone with her husband first.
Unexpectedly, their world of two became a mess and ended up in divorce.
Fortunately, she didn't give birth to the child at that time, otherwise she might not be so decisive to divorce for the sake of the child. Besides, it would be more difficult to take care of a child when he or she just got home.
All of this has been carefully considered.
But she knows it's okay, but others can't know!
Otherwise, she could have told Gu Yuanwei's family about his difficulty in having children. Gu's family would have disliked her because she had been married before, but their son had difficulty in having children. If it were any other woman, who would be willing to marry into their family?
It's better for two people with flaws to be a couple, and neither of them should dislike the other.
Even if this matter were to get out, the Gu family would not be able to hold their heads up in front of her. If she really gave birth to a child, she could show off in front of the Gu family.
But she didn't say it, and even told Gu Yuanwei not to say it.
Because once I say it, people will look at her with sympathy like Cheng Jing did, or even with some mocking laughter. Can't she bear my gaze?
Even Gu's parents were reluctant to reveal it, because she understood that once the secret was told, it would most likely be exposed. So she would rather accept the Gu family's difficulties than let the matter be leaked.
But she never expected that although the news was kept secret here, it spread throughout the compound and even reached Cheng Jing's ears. Then everyone else must have known about it as well!
Without her help, the people in the compound would not be willing to associate with the Cheng brothers. It was not because the two brothers came from the countryside. After all, which of the elders in the compound did not come from the countryside?
If you dislike the two brothers because they are from the countryside, how can you not dislike your own elders?
But they disliked some of the brothers' behaviors, especially their attitude towards her.
To be honest, she also looked down on such people, but as the person involved, she felt so good to be pampered by two men, so good that even though she knew it was wrong, she still couldn't give it up.
People in the compound look down on the two brothers and will not tell them about certain things. Cheng Jing knows that this means that there must be quite a few people in the compound who know about it!
When Lin Lin thought of this possibility, she felt extremely uncomfortable.
She never thought that Gu Yuanwei's previous girlfriend would be Ma Jie's cousin. If she had known earlier...
"Are you okay?" Cheng Jing on the other side was extremely anxious. If he had known that Lin Lin would react so violently, he would never have said this. He was so anxious that he didn't care about the eyes of the people around him and reached out to help her, "How about I take you to the hospital?"
"I'm fine." Lin Lin was indeed having trouble standing, so she leaned on Cheng Jing's shoulder. She felt really uncomfortable at the moment, and her chest felt painful every time she breathed.
But she continued to explain, "Gu Yuanwei is in good health. You must not tell anyone else about this at this time! Not even your brothers and sisters!"
She couldn't help persuading herself in her heart.
It's okay! It's okay!
No matter what the people in the compound say, the worst that can happen is that she won't go back!
As long as she gave birth to the child, took the child and Gu Yuanwei back to her parents' home, all the rumors would be torn to pieces.
She can still be the envy of everyone!
As long as no one here knows about it, and no one tells her about it, she won’t see the colors she doesn’t like. As long as she gives birth to the baby, everything will be fine!
So Cheng Jing must shut up!
Originally, she thought it was great to meet Cheng Jing here. After all, they had been friends for many years. He also praised her and obeyed her. This feeling could not be experienced from anyone else.
But now she really wants Cheng Jing to leave as soon as possible!
He was afraid that he would reveal his biggest worry. After all, his brother was a member of the army. If he knew about it, it would probably spread to the entire army...
Lin Lin ignored everything else and walked out holding Cheng Jing's hand. She didn't care that they were very close to each other and holding hands made it seem even more ambiguous!
She dragged him out of the state-owned hotel and they went straight into a dead end. She pressed Cheng Jing against the wall and leaned over to stare at him. "Go away. Go far away and never come here again. This matter should be kept in your stomach. Don't ever mention it to anyone else..."
"Lin Lin?!"
Lin Lin was interrupted by a voice behind her before she could finish her words. She turned back subconsciously, but when she saw the person in front of her, she froze. Before she could react, the person in front of her screamed, "What are you doing? How can you be worthy of my brother!"
Coincidentally, the person who came was Gu Xiumin.
Coincidentally, Gu Xiumin was just hungry and had saved two dollars so she wanted to buy some meat buns to eat at home.
As a result, before I even entered the state-owned hotel, I saw my brother's girlfriend holding another man's hand and walking into a dead end nearby...
Now, why would she care about the meat buns or not?
Of course, she followed him without hesitation. At first, she tried to comfort herself, wondering if she had misunderstood. Even if she was not the future sister-in-law he liked, she was still someone that her brother valued. If her brother knew that his partner was outside... wouldn't he be heartbroken?
With a lucky mentality, she followed into a dead end, silently muttering that it must be a misunderstanding. But when she came in, she saw Lin Lin pinning the man against the wall, saying that this matter must not be known to anyone else!
Is there any need to guess?
This is clearly the wild man that Lin Lin hooked up with!
