Chapter 640 Blame Myself for Being Too Young
It took a long time for Ling Lei to find her voice again. Her voice was so hoarse as if she hadn't had any water for several days.
"...How did you know? Could it be..."
Lin Tang blinked mysteriously, made a confidentiality gesture, and lowered his voice to say, "Be quiet, keep it a secret."
She didn't want to reveal the fact that she could make medicine for the time being.
Ling Lei understood, her eyes filled with amazement and emotion.
"...Don't worry, I won't tell anyone." She looked very disillusioned.
Who would have thought that Comrade Lin Tang could actually make medicine, and he's quite skilled at it?!
Anyway, she would never think of it even if you beat her to death.
Lin Tang watched her return to her seat in a daze and shook his head.
Tsk, blame myself for being too young.
Otherwise, it wouldn't surprise people like this.
Reaching out and touching the smooth little face, she felt how great it was to be young.
Just then, Qiao Cheng entered the office.
He put down the information book he was carrying, poured a glass of water, and drank it in a depressed mood.
Not a word.
Ling Lei noticed that something was wrong with this guy and asked curiously, "What's wrong with you? Why do you look so unhappy?"
The scene he had just seen on the road popped up in Qiao Cheng's mind, and his face turned pale and looked extremely ugly.
"...I can't explain it clearly. You'll know at noon."
Some things are hard to say directly, all I can say is that the scene made him feel uncomfortable.
Qiao Cheng's words made Ling Lei even more confused. "Why can't you explain it clearly? If you don't say anything, then of course we don't know anything."
So weird!
Qiao Cheng rubbed his short hair irritably, a bitter look on his face.
"Think about what Ajing and Xiaoxue said. It's similar to that situation," he said.
Ling Lei's expression became serious when she thought about what her children said about the school being closed.
"this……"
Before she could finish her words, Lin Tang pulled her arm and shook his head.
Some things are better left unsaid, it’s hard to explain them.
Ling Lei took back the words on the tip of her tongue and sighed, "Oh! What's going on?"
Can't you just live a good life?
Lin Tang patted her shoulder to comfort her, and said meaningfully, "Just take care of yourselves first."
...It's just the beginning.
Ling Lei's face froze slightly, and she said unhappily, "Stop it, your tone is scary."
"Sorry." Lin Tang smiled slightly.
After all, what was happening outside was far away from the technical department. After the three of them calmed down, the others came one after another. Everything seemed to be no different from yesterday and the day before yesterday.
-
On the way back that day, Lin Tang found that the atmosphere in the county had completely changed.
Pedestrians came and went in a hurry, many of them without even looking up, their whole bodies filled with vigilance.
There is a strange oppressive atmosphere when walking on the road, as if the devil's tentacles are silently extending towards people, and once you are touched, you will fall into the abyss.
The atmosphere was very different from before.
"Stop! What are you doing sneaking around..." Suddenly, a group of people came running over.
Lin Tang: "..." Which eye of yours saw me sneaking around?
anger!
Before she could get angry, those people floated past her.
"...Which brigade are you from? Show us your letter of introduction!" the leading young man asked sternly.
Lin Tang turned his head and saw that the person being questioned was a scoundrel-like rural youth.
How do I know this guy is from the countryside? First, by his expression, second, by his feeling, and third, by the wear and tear of his clothes...
Well, as long as it’s not me.
If these people dared to say that she was sneaky, she would smash their heads and let them know why the flowers were so red.
These thoughts flashed through his mind, and Lin Tang withdrew his gaze and continued walking home.
The weather was getting cold, and Li Xiuli knew that her daughter was afraid of the cold, so she got some cotton and made her a new quilt, and sent it to her as soon as possible.
Affected by what he saw on the road, Lin Tang had a sullen look on his face when he walked in.
People who love you can always see through your emotions at the first moment.
This is the case with Lin Lu and Li Xiuli.
The couple looked at each other.
Thinking Tangtang had been wronged, I walked over worriedly and asked, "Tangtang, what's wrong with you? What wronged you?"
Lin Tang refused to bring negative energy to his parents. He smiled and said casually, "Nothing. I just ran into something on the way."
She didn't know that the old couple had arrived earlier and had seen more extreme scenes.
Li Xiuli's face turned a little unhappy when she thought of what she saw when she came here.
"Tangtang, did you see it on the road too?" she asked with concern.
well!
Tangtang is a soft-hearted girl. If she really saw that scene, she would feel very upset.
Lin Tang had no way of denying it and nodded.
Li Xiuli was worried that her daughter was unhappy, so she patted her head and said, "Don't think too much, it will be fine in a few days."
Lin Lu didn't know why the county suddenly became chaotic, but he always had a feeling that something was wrong, and the focus was different from that of his wife.
Looking at Lin Tang, he said seriously: "Tangtang, take care of yourself. Don't waste time on your commute to and from get off work, and don't get involved in anything that happens."
The expressions of the group of people who were causing the trouble were extremely fanatical. He was afraid that Tangtang would get into conflict with those people and get hurt.
Lin Tang would not play the hero during this special period, so he nodded obediently, "I know."
Seeing that she understood, Lin Lu patted his daughter's shoulder and said nothing more.
Li Xiuli felt that the head of the family was too nervous, and thinking that it was a good thing for Tangtang to take care of herself, she did not refute him.
Not wanting to talk about these bad guys’ moods anymore, he pulled Lin Tang into the house.
"Tangtang, Mom made a quilt for you. Take a look. You can use it in a while."
Lin Tang went over and touched the quilt, which was very thick.
...I guess all the cotton coupons at home have been used up.
"It's really thick, thank you mother."
Lin Lu saw that there was a lot of firewood in the yard and asked, "Is the guy who delivered the firewood to you still delivering it?"
"Yes!" Lin Tang nodded. "Firewood is needed every day, and it's even more needed in winter, so I asked him to keep delivering it."
I'm talking about the black boy who always comes to deliver firewood.
She liked people who refused to accept their fate and worked hard to live, so she was happy to give the boy a chance to support himself and his family.
Anyway, they each get what they need.
Boom, boom, boom...
There was a sudden knock on the door.
Li Xiuli walked towards the door, "Who is this?"
"He should be here to deliver firewood." Lin Tang explained.
No wonder people say you can’t talk about people during the day and you can’t talk about ghosts at night. Well, it makes a lot of sense.
When Li Xiuli opened the door, she saw a dark and thin boy standing at the door.
"...I'll bring the firewood." The black boy said hesitantly.
"I'm here to deliver the firewood. Come in quickly." Li Xiuli was stunned for a moment when she saw the dark and skinny face. After she came to her senses, she opened the door.
Seeing a short and thin boy carrying firewood that was taller than him, Lin Lu went over to help him and rested.
"Thank you, uncle." The black boy mumbled his thanks.
Lin Lu casually asked, "How old are you?"
The black boy was afraid that the Lin family would not want his firewood, so his heart tightened and he clenched his rough, scratched hands together, "I'm twelve years old."
After answering, he said in an anxious tone: "I am very strong and can do a lot of work. I can deliver a lot of firewood every time. You just need to pay me some money. It's very cheap..."
Lin Lu felt bad that he was twelve years old and so thin.
If this happened to my own child, I would be heartbroken.
