At night, Lin Ran lay in bed, her mind full of Shi Yan's last words.
"Because you are here."
The scorching gaze burned Lin Ran so much that she instinctively hid herself under the quilt.
The heart beating violently in her chest seemed to be telling the girl's inner thoughts.
He actually decided not to go back to the city for his own sake.
It seemed that my previous worries no longer existed.
But……
Should I agree to him?
Oh, what was she thinking!
Shi Yan obviously didn't ask her, why should she be so self-indulgent!
Go to sleep, don’t think about it anymore.
At the same time, in the family compound of the Beijing Revolutionary Committee.
As soon as Song Yao got home, she excitedly shouted:
"Mom, did my brother write back?"
When Luo Wanjun heard the voice, she walked out of the room with a helpless look on her face.
"You're such a lucky girl, you're not even back yet after playing for so long. Don't you want to eat dinner? Luckily, your dad is still working overtime today, otherwise he'd definitely scold you again."
Although it was an accusation, there was no hint of anger in it.
Of course Song Yao could also hear it. She hugged Luo Wanjun's arm and smiled ingratiatingly.
"Mom, I just went to the Friendship Store with a classmate. It's rare for her to get overseas remittance coupons, so we stayed out a little late."
Luo Wanjun didn't hold on to it after hearing it, as long as she knew that Song Yao was not playing around outside.
As soon as Song Yao saw Luo Wanjun's expression, she knew that she had passed this hurdle, and asked the same question again.
"Mom, I heard a letter from home when I got back just now. Is it from my eldest brother?"
Luo Wanjun tidied up Song Yao's short hair, which was sticking up because she ran too fast, and nodded with a light smile.
"It's a letter from your elder brother. Look how anxious you are. Can the letter still fly?"
Song Yao didn't care about Luo Wanjun's joke and immediately asked excitedly:
"It's really a letter from Big Brother! Did Big Brother say when he would be back? When he went to the countryside, he clearly promised me that he would be back in the city soon, but now so much time has passed, why hasn't he come back yet?"
Speaking of this, Luo Wanjun naturally thought of the contents of the letter.
A hint of relief and longing could not help but reveal itself in her gentle eyes.
But when she met Song Yao's expectant gaze, she didn't know how to answer.
This hesitant attitude caused Song Yao to misunderstand.
"Mom, don't scare me. What's wrong? Did something happen to my eldest brother?"
Seeing this, Luo Wanjun quickly shook her head to comfort him.
"Nothing happened, but your eldest brother did have some issues, so he probably won't be back for a while."
"Why? Mom, don't hide it from me. What happened to my brother? Why doesn't he come back for the time being?"
Song Yao became even more worried now.
Luo Wanjun knew that with Song Yao's personality, if she didn't explain things clearly today, this girl would probably go to An County alone to find Shi Yan tomorrow.
She immediately pulled Song Yao back into the house.
At this moment, Song Yunlu, who was standing at the door, happened to hear this conversation. She couldn't help but look thoughtfully at the backs of the mother and daughter as they left.
Shouldn't Shi Yan be coming back by this time in his previous life?
I don’t think you said what happened?
Thinking of this, she tiptoed and followed quietly.
Inside the house, Song Yao quickly read the letter sent back by Shi Yan and exclaimed in disbelief:
"What? Big Brother actually has a girl he likes?"
"Shh... can't you speak a little more quietly, girl? You're afraid others won't hear you, right?
Didn’t you see that your elder brother said in the letter that the girl didn’t know about this?
Maybe the girl doesn't even like your brother."
Luo Wanjun pretended to glare at Song Yao.
Song Yao didn't care, but lowered her voice obediently.
"How could there be any girl who wouldn't fall for my brother? He's such a nice guy, smart, and most importantly, handsome. Not only in the whole city, but even in our compound, there are many girls who like him.
It’s just that my eldest brother has always looked down upon them.
I used to think that my elder brother was just like that, so cold towards all girls.
At first, I was worried that Big Brother wouldn’t be able to find a partner!
As she spoke, Song Yao began to feel a little guilty.
My brother is so bad at pleasing girls, but girls won’t really look down on him, right?
Fortunately, Luo Wanjun didn't notice. At this moment, her thoughts were already far away, and she sighed unconsciously:
"Yeah, I didn't expect your brother to have grown up so quickly. He's old enough to get married and have children. I still remember how we relied on each other back then..."
Having said this, Luo Wanjun suddenly came to her senses and quickly shut up.
Song Yao blinked her big eyes, somewhat puzzled.
"Mom, what do you mean by dependent on each other? Is that before you married Dad?"
"Yeah, you guys didn't exist at that time."
Luo Wanjun lowered her eyelashes and obviously didn't want to say more.
Fortunately, Song Yao didn't ask too many questions and just hugged Luo Wanjun's arm and acted coquettishly.
"Then don't think about the past, you still have me and Third Brother by your side.
Ask your eldest brother to work harder and bring your eldest sister-in-law back. Then she’ll give you a grandson and you can become a grandmother!"
With this description, Luo Wanjun had the image of a child calling her grandma in her mind, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.
But I couldn't help but start to worry.
"I don't know if your eldest brother can bring his wife back."
Obviously, she also thought of Shi Yan's personality. He was so taciturn, how could a girl tolerate him?
Song Yao tilted her head and thought for a moment, then her eyes suddenly lit up and she quickly suggested:
"Mom, how about I help my big brother to pursue my big sister? Maybe when my big sister sees how cute I am, she will immediately agree to my big brother!"
