Chapter 182 Cheers

"Weiwei——"

Gu Qia was so conspicuous in the crowd. He was almost half a day taller than everyone else, and with his handsome appearance and military uniform, everyone looked at him with admiration and even took the initiative to move out of the way to watch this PLA comrade excitedly run out of the platform and meet a man. Beautiful girls hugged each other tightly.

"Let me see, is my Weiwei fat or thin?" Gu Qia reluctantly let go of Lin Siwei in the crowd and looked at her carefully.

"Pfft!" Lin Siwei was amused by him, "The last time you saw me, you said I had lost weight, and then you said I looked better and looked like a movie star; the last time you saw me, you said I had gained weight, and then you said I looked better now. She looks good, and she looks like a female entrepreneur. You always have something to say."

Gu Qia said seriously, "I gained weight last time, but I lost weight last time. This time, Wei is neither fat nor thin. Wei."

It is true that he always has something to say, but he is still the unserious Gu Qia.

"If I get fatter and lose weight, I won't be your Weiwei anymore?" Lin Siwei caught him saying something wrong.

"Not fat, not thin. You are my Weiwei. If you get fat or lose weight, I am your Xiaoqia. Hehe."

"Oh, that's all fine. Gu Qia, you didn't go to a military academy, right? The military academy also has a way of coaxing people. Advanced courses?"

The two of them bickered and walked out of the station intimately.

"Did you miss me?" Gu Qia immediately became bored as soon as he was in a deserted place.

"I think." Lin Siwei blushed a little. We have been in a relationship for more than a year, and every time Gu Qia asks this question, her heart still beats faster.

"I want it too." Gu Qia took advantage of her unpreparedness and kissed her gently on the lips, "I usually kiss your photo when I miss you. Everyone in the dormitory knows that my partner is a female entrepreneur."

Female entrepreneur, That's right. Why do you want to laugh so much when it comes out of Gu Qia's mouth?

"Just after I left school, the dormitory aunt was still worried about me, saying that it was not easy to be a military wife. I thought, why am I a military wife."

"Yes, she is a military wife. Will you marry someone else? I care. "Qia, I've bound you. You can't run away even if you go to the end of the world."

Gu Qia's big hand held her. Every time he held her hand like this, Lin Siwei felt that all the shopping malls, workplaces and business world were gone, and he felt extremely peaceful. Move forward without hesitation.

"Weiwei, opposite is Fishbone Lane."

"Want to go home and say hello to your grandparents?"

"We'll talk about this later." Gu Qia suddenly laughed, "I thought of helping you transfer your household registration that day. You can do it." He made me cry and pulled my clothes to wipe my tears, just under the big tree opposite.

"Ah, thank you so much, Brother Xiao Qia. Thanks to you for helping me transfer my household registration. From then on, I left Yugu Lane and walked onto Kangzhuang Avenue." "

Did you like me then?" Gu Qia started to be shameless again.

"Huh?"

"Yes, what the hell? You said at that time that I looked like a very handsome dog, so just call it Ha."

"Er Ha..."

"One day I will raise an Er Ha for you. Let’s compare and see who is more handsome. “

No, Brother Qia, you don’t even let go of the dog, you are too competitive.

The two of them kept talking incessantly, their little hands holding hands almost dangled to the sky, and finally they got down to business.

"Why are you treating me at your house this time? Aren't you making grandma more trouble?"

"My house is big, so I'm not afraid of chatting late. It's inconvenient to go to a restaurant when people get off work at eight o'clock. My grandma called De Taiheng's cook is here, and the banquet is just a small thing, and he will pack it up

before leaving." Gu Qian thought about it and said, "This is good, it will save trouble."

"I think so. It's really far away." Lin Siwei rolled his eyes at him and smiled again, "I will definitely drink Uncle Gu and Brother Xiaohuai's wedding wine first."

Gu Qia's face suddenly fell: "Humph, I'm obviously the first to talk to you. Why do they have to drink first?"

"Because of their age, because of their maturity, and because of our youth."

"You said my dad actually talked about someone so quietly, I'm shocked."

"You still don't agree?"

"How is that possible? Xiaohuai and Xiaolan and I all agree. I heard that Aunt Yu is also a very capable person. They must have something to say.

" That's right. Gu Nianshen has long passed the impulsive age, and Yu Jianxiu has been single for many years. Both of them are focused on their work and rarely think about the relationship between a man and a woman. After getting in touch at work, we first respected each other's character, and then during the exchange we discovered that they all have dazzling insights into social development, the world structure, the past, and the future.

Once you feel good about it, everything will fall into place.

"Weiwei, why did my dad bring Aunt Yu to your house first? My grandparents haven't met Aunt Yu yet."

Gu Qia is like this, he has a hundred thousand reasons at any time. His social experience is far less than that of Lin Siwei, but he has never been embarrassed. In his heart, his Weiwei is right about everything. If he doesn't understand anything, just ask Weiwei.

This emotion can even be called worship.

And what Lin Siwei needs is not a man who is smarter, more worldly, and more experienced than her. She just liked Gu Qia like this, simple and unconcerned. He would always stand in front of Lin Siwei, regardless of the reason.

Lin Siwei understood Gu Qia's question immediately.

The combination of the deputy director of the provincial department and the deputy mayor must be very cautious, and since they are middle-aged, they must have more concerns about their actions. Meeting their parents is too formal, and it is not appropriate to visit them before discussing marriage, but it is not appropriate to visit their teachers. no the same.

To Gu Nianshen, Hu Qiaoyue was a teacher and an elder, and she was with the Ding family. It was considered a gathering of friends. Her appearance at such a gathering was also a tacit official announcement, which was more flexible.

When Lin Siwei told Gu Qia this, he finally realized it.

The two of them walked all the way to Yangchuan Road, talking about their separation, and watching the news about the military academy and the factory. They laughed together when they talked about interesting things, and sighed when they talked about regrets.

No one mentioned the Lin family.

...

Regarding Lin Zhengqing, I heard that he was recruited immediately after entering. This coward was punished not only for those who were found out, but also for those who were not found out. His sentence was both fast and severe, twenty years.

Liu Yuxiu said that she had divorced Lin Zhengqing a long time ago and that Lin Zhengqing's breaking the law had nothing to do with her. She also said that she still had to raise her daughter. Her daughter was in a bad mood and could not hear the words Lin Zhengqing.

She took half a year's sick leave, and she and Lin Jiale stayed at No. 43 Fishbone Lane. Except for going out to buy groceries every few days, they almost stayed behind closed doors.

Lin Jiahuan went back to visit once, but other than sending some food, he couldn't do anything to help.

She tentatively asked Liu Yuxiu if she wanted to see her father. Liu Yuxiu said, "Others will never dare to mention that person in front of me. For the sake of you being my daughter, that's the end of it." You are the little princess of Yangchuan Road now. Don’t come to Fish Bone Alley to watch our fun. Jia Le and I live well together. Jia Le will name me Liu in the future. Let me have a show with you and my daughter. Let me send you a few words. I tell you sincerely.

Study hard and go to the capital of your dreams. Only by going there can you wash away the stains on your body, the inheritance of your mental illness, and your corrupt and cheating father. No one will know about it when you arrive in the capital.

When he said this, Lin Jiahuan also saw a hint of maternal love.

But Liu Yuxiu's maternal love is determined.

Lin Jiahuan said, I can't choose my parents, and I won't regard my illness and background as a stain. I will go to the capital of my dreams, but that is not to escape my past. I have already made peace with my disease. Even if my body is not completely healthy, I believe that I can create a beautiful future.

Liu Yuxiu looked at her and said lightly, Jiahuan, you have indeed grown up.

Lin Jiahuan said, it was you who gave birth to me, and it was my grandma and sister Siwei who changed me. When I walked out of Fishbone Alley, the world was bigger than I imagined. If I didn't grow up, I wouldn't be qualified to accept this grandness.

Liu Yuxiu lowered her head and had to admit that compared to Lin Jiahuan who walked out of Fishbone Lane, Lin Jiale who stayed with her was gradually rotting in the greenhouse.

Greenhouses are toxic.

Lin Zhengqing experienced three women in his life and gave birth to three daughters. In the end, he was imprisoned and the only one who came to visit him was Lin Jiahuan.

His hair turned completely white, and he looked like a rickety old man overnight. He was no longer the handsome, handsome and personable Principal Lin.

He complained repeatedly, saying that he shouldn't be greedy to collect those things, saying that he just followed the crowd and everyone else did the same, so why was he unlucky, saying that your mother was so cruel that she even reported her husband, saying that if Su Hongmei was still alive, she would definitely do it Come to see him, Su Hongmei is the most gentle and gentle woman.

Lin Jiahuan heard it. Prison life did not make him reflect. He still felt that everything was other people's fault.

My first choice for next year’s college entrance examination is a university in Beijing, and I have no plans to return to Jinling. Lin Jiahuan said coldly.

What she was thinking was, why should I come to see you? Because this may be the last time in my life.

Your grades are okay, just work hard. Lin Zhengqing finally said something humane. But then, he said, you have to come back often even if you go to the capital, otherwise Lin Siwei will take away all the Yangchuan Road and you won't have any share. Dad still hopes to come out and enjoy the happiness with you.

Lin Jiahuan said goodbye without even saying goodbye.

After returning home, she hugged her grandma and asked, "Grandma, how could such a good person like you give birth to a son like my father?"

Hu Qiaoyue was silent for a long time and finally said that it was because his father was such a person, full of lies and ruthless.

This is the first time grandma mentioned grandpa.

No, Lin Siwei and Lin Jiahuan both heard that that man did not deserve to be called grandfather, he was just Lin Zhengqing's father in the biological sense.

Then why do we have the surname Lin? Lin Siwei finally asked the question he wanted to know most.

A gentle light shone on Hu Qiaoyue's face. She held a granddaughter with one hand and said, I have been let down by men, but I have never hated men. Do you know why? Because someone risked his life to save me. This benefactor’s surname was Lin. He made me understand that some people are born bad, but not everyone is that bad. I have spent my whole life looking for that light in the darkness. I believe there is light in the world. You too will find your own light.

It turns out that this is why I have the surname Lin.

Grandma did not reveal the past in detail, but Lin Siwei and Lin Jiahuan were able to make peace on their own.

Especially Lin Jiahuan, she is not as dazzling as Lin Siwei. In the first seventeen years of her life, during the darkest time, a ray of light shone into her heart.

It was Brother Xiao Huai who plunged into the canal, Brother Xiao Huai who followed her silently, Brother Xiao Huai who helped her solve problems seriously, and Brother Xiao Huai who inspired her to walk out of Jinling.

However, Brother Xiaohuai has a partner, and I heard that he will come back to get his certificate during the Spring Festival. Then I wish Brother Xiaohuai the most perfect happiness in the world. And she will regard this memory as a gift of youth and treasure it forever.

…

No. 265, Yangchuan Road.

A chef and two helpers were busy in the front room. The newly equipped gas stove spurted blue flames, the braised pork in the pot gave off a fragrant aroma, and chicken soup was simmering on the briquette stove next to it.

A large round table was propped up under the grape trellis in the courtyard, and eight plates of De Taiheng's cold dishes were placed on the table.

"Grandma, we are back." Lin Jiahuan and Jia Fang ran home happily.

Today is Saturday, City No. 1 Middle School does not want to study late. They almost trot home after class. When they think about a treat at home, there will be many guests, and the two little girls are very excited.

"Wow, we are eating in the yard today." Jia Fang was overjoyed. "Will you eat it in your nose when it gets dark?"

"Didn't you see the light bulb coming over?" Lin Jiahuan pointed to the top of his head, one hundred watts The big lightbulb is hung on the grape trellis, just waiting for it to show its power after dark.

Jia Fang clasped her hands together, like in foreign movies: "Dinner under the stars, so romantic."

Hu Qiaoyue grabbed a handful of chopsticks, placed the plate carefully, and said with a smile: "I see you are happy. God is also helping me. " , The weather is neither too hot nor too cold, and the atmosphere is great. "

"Grandma, you are very particular about the dishes, just like you measured them with a ruler." "I'll try it

too."

Go on, you two are so messy, I don't dare let you do these detailed examination tasks."

"Then let's move the stools."

The two girls were counting heads while moving the stools.

"Grandma, how many people are there today?"

"Ten, exactly one table."

Lin Jiahuan was surprised: "Ha, there are so many people, Uncle Gu, Brother Xiao Qia, and District Chief Ding, who else are there?"

Hu Qiaoyue said: "There are four in our family. Your Uncle Gu and Brother Xiaoqia are six. District Chief Ding's family is three, which is nine. Your Uncle Gu will bring an aunt over."

"Auntie?" Lin Jiahuan didn't understand for a moment.

But Jia Fang was smart and whispered: "Is it my sister Siwei's little brother Qia who is going to have a new mother?"

"Ah, that's right!" Lin Jiahuan understood immediately and smiled, "Grandma, isn't it? Uncle Gu has found a partner?"

Hu Qiaoyue said proudly, "This aunt works in the provincial capital. Speaking of which, Siwei is still a matchmaker. She is a cadre of the Provincial Light Industry Department."

"Sister Siwei is still doing this?" What a surprise. "I thought Sister Siwei was best at being a general manager, but she turns out to be a matchmaker."

"I don't dare to take the credit." came Lin Siwei's clear voice.

She and Gu Qia walked into the yard holding hands, and happened to hear their grandparents gossiping.

"Sister Siwei, brother Xiao Qia!"

The two sisters greeted each other excitedly. Jia Fang actively stepped forward to take Gu Qia's military schoolbag and Lin Siwei's small backpack: "I'll help you put them upstairs, Fang Siwei." Sister's room."

Lin Siwei: You don't have to be so active.

Here Gu Qia had already called out to grandma with great enthusiasm, and rolled up his sleeves to his arms: "If there is any work that needs to be done, just ask grandma."

"There is no work, no work, no work, I am not busy, the masters are all ready "Okay. You two go upstairs to talk and call you when they come."

Lin Siwei blushed. Why does the whole world think we are going to enter the room?

Gu Qia showed an emotional intelligence of 120,000 at this moment. He smiled and said: "Wei Wei and I have talked about it all. I took three days off this time and will return to Shanghai the day after tomorrow. We can still talk for one day tomorrow. Now I'm with you. Grandma said.

"Let's sit down and eat some fruit."

There is a small table and a few bamboo chairs on the other side of the yard. There are apples and oranges on the small table, as well as exquisite small plates filled with melon seeds and peanuts.

"Grandma, come and sit, too. I love talking to grandma." Gu Qia couldn't help but said, holding Hu Qiaoyue's arm and sitting down on the bamboo chair.

She peeled another orange for Hu Qiaoyue and said, "Grandma, eat the orange."

Hu Qiaoyue slowly ate a piece and asked, "Are you nervous about your studies? There shouldn't be too many cultural classes in the military academy's curriculum."

Now it was Gu Qiao's turn. Yihong: "Not much, but not much. We all have to learn English now, otherwise we won't be able to understand the instructions for foreign weapons."

"You have to learn that. You see, Siwei Factory is a Sino-foreign joint venture. In the future, we will There are too many things for foreigners to do, and you can't rely solely on translators."

"Yes, grandma is right."

"If you don't understand anything, just ask Siwei. If she doesn't have time, you can ask me. This was an opportunity to flatter him, and

Gu Qia immediately said, "Yes, grandma's English is very good. Grandma used to be an English teacher."

"My English is also good." Jia Fang ran downstairs. , listened to half of it, and answered happily.

"Then I won't ask you, I'll ask grandma." Gu Qia's flattery was very precise.

Hu Qiaoyue was amused by her and giggled. Even her granddaughter was so good at talking.

Lin Jiahuan had been watching them talk with a smile, and now she spoke: "Grandma, Jia Fang and I will go to the door to wait for the guests. They are all here for the first time, so don't miss the door."

"Okay, Jia Huan thinks so . Thoughtful. It's time for them to get off work at this time, and they will arrive soon."

Lin Jiahuan and Jia Fang each carried a small bamboo chair and sat at the door to wait for someone. A top student is a top student, and the two of them didn't forget to bring their English books, so they could memorize a few words while waiting.

Ding Shaowu just showed up riding a bicycle so coolly.

He came over directly from the grain and oil station after get off work, without going home to meet his parents. He guessed that the house number was almost there, so he got out of the car and looked at each house, 261, 263, 265, this one.

"Excuse me, Lin Siwei's family?" Ding Shaowu asked.

"Yes, you are..." Jia Fang looked past the English book and looked at Ding Shaowu.

This boy is so beautiful, but why is he asking Sister Siwei? Jia Fang immediately put up a vigilant antenna, subconsciously trying to block this boy for Brother Xiao Qia.

"I'm Lin Siwei's classmate, and I came here for a party."

"Classmate?" Lin Jiahuan didn't understand. Today we invited Uncle Gu and District Chief Ding’s family. I didn’t hear that we invited Siwei’s classmate.

Jia Fang was even more straightforward: "Are you mistaken? There is no class reunion today."

Now it was Ding Shaowu's turn to doubt himself: "Ah, did I remember it wrong? Is Lin Siwei at home? I'll ask her."

Jia Fang Fang became more alert. I think Sister Wei and Brother Xiaoqia can only see each other a few times a year. They must be full of things to say, and I can’t let you, an overly beautiful boy, disturb them.

So Jia Fang said: "Sister Siwei has something to do."

Lin Jiahuan also nodded heavily, adding to the authenticity of Jia Fang's words.

"That's it." Ding Shaowu scratched his head, "Then I'll go home and ask, did I remember the time wrong?"

Looking at Ding Shaowu's back riding away, Jia Fang breathed a sigh of relief: "Our sister Siwei is really lovable. This boy must be Xiao Qia's love rival."

Unexpectedly, Lin Siwei heard the sound and said, "Is someone coming?"

"No," Jia Fang said.

Lin Siwei muttered: "I seem to hear Ding Shaowu's voice..."

"Who is Ding Shaowu?" Lin Jiahuan asked curiously.

"My classmate is the son of District Chief Ding."

"Ah! It's broken!" Jia Fang threw the book away and bounced off the bamboo chair, "I'll chase him back!"

Lin Siwei was confused: "Fangfang is What's going on?"

Lin Jiahuan was already laughing so hard that her stomach ached: "Haha, Jia Fang drove away our guests."

...

The sky was getting dark, the stars were rising, and the lights in the courtyard were on.

All the guests have arrived and are gathered together.

Ding Guangyao was still so handsome. He brought a few bottles of good wine and said he would get drunk with Gu Nianshen. Gong Qian took Lin Siwei's hand and said that she missed Xiao Lin after not seeing him for a long time. She also asked Lin Siwei if his skin was better than before.

Yu Jianxiu listened to Hu Qiaoyue's introduction to the history of several houses nearby, and occasionally said a few words in a polite and generous manner, saying that the current policies were good, and these were the benefits that Teacher Hu should receive. He also said that he had heard that Teacher Hu had donated all his paintings and calligraphy to the government. I admire Teacher Hu’s broadmindedness and feelings for his family and country very much. He also praised Lin Siwei for running the factory very well now, and the province wanted to set her up as a role model.

Gu Nianshen asked Ding Guangyao, half-seriously, if he knew that the beer production line of the General Brewery was running out of capacity and that part of Liangyou Company's Shuangbeer line had to be used for production.

Ding Guangyao was not drunk yet, so he smiled slightly, with an inscrutable smile, and said: "As expected, I just came a little early."

Then he looked at Lin Siwei: "Brother Gu, the brewery can't beat Xiao Lin, so can you. You should have figured it out a long time ago."

Gu Nianshen clinked the wine glasses with him and said in a low voice: "Not only your brewery, but also many state-owned factories will be beaten down one after another in the future."

"It's hard to get back." With a sound, he suddenly raised his eyebrows again, "It's not necessarily a bad thing. I heard that township and village enterprises in other places have annexed state-owned enterprises, taking over factories, taking over workers, and also taking over debts."

Gu Nianshen nodded: "Yes, it's just a reorganization. State-owned enterprises The enterprise has a heavy burden, its products are old, and it is difficult to transform. You see, Liangxiao Factory said it would increase its product line, and it said it wanted to produce champagne. When it said it needed a site, the Grain School immediately applied to the city. , approved. Now the output value of Liangxiao Factory in one month is equivalent to half of the total brewing factory, and the total number of employees is only one-tenth."

Ding Guangyao suddenly had an idea in his mind and took a breath: "So the city wants to. Land is given, policy is given, because the old enterprise cannot survive and no one will take over. This is to lay an ambush in advance and train the successor.

"Haha" Gu Nianshen laughed, but did not give an accurate answer.

In fact, Lin Siwei had been listening to what they were saying. He was just a deputy mayor and a deputy district chief. They were talking in whispers that could be heard by everyone at the table, and he was not suitable to interrupt.

It turns out that the city has long been interested in practicing trumpet, and the trumpet player in my factory is the most proficient in it.

She couldn't help but hold her chin up and laugh.

It is also common for the small number to be more popular than the large number. Since the city is planning a trick, I will be grateful and not sensitive, and I will use the trick.

"Why are you laughing secretly?" Gu Qia picked up a shrimp for her, "The shrimp is so tender today, try it."

Lin Siwei also gave him one: "You can eat it too. These shrimps are freshly peeled river shrimps. "It's not the kind in the freezer. Isn't it very big? It's hard to meet him."

He explained to him carefully, "I was laughing about work. The good times were overtaken by me. Five years earlier, five years later. " I won't be this smooth in years."

"No." Gu Qia said honestly with the purpose of "my wife is the strongest", "I think you will succeed in whatever you do, sooner or later." It wasn't me who said it, it was my grandpa who agreed. Think about it, how scary it is that both of them agreed.

"Pfft." Lin Siwei covered his mouth and smiled.

Jia Fang, who was eating all-you-can-eat dog food next to her, leaned on Lin Jiahuan's shoulder: "Five years later, isn't it us? When we finish college and come out, will the times be so good?"

Lin Jiahuan nodded heavily: "Definitely. Yes, it will even be better."

"Are you two going to college?" Ding Shaowu blinked and asked curiously.

"Yes, we have agreed that my family will be admitted to a university in Beijing, and I will be admitted to a university in Shanghai. From now on, we will be the twin stars of the North and the South."

"Yes, you are both from the No. 1 Middle School in the city, and your grades are very good. The children at home are good at reading, and Lin Siwei taught me English at that time." Ding Shaowu said cheerfully, "It's a pity that I don't have a good brain and can't learn, so I failed." When

Gong Qian heard this, he immediately said with disgust: "Thank God that you passed the exam. It's all thanks to Siwei."

Hearing this, Hu Qiaoyue stood up and said, "It's all thanks to Siwei that we can gather here today. Siwei didn't run downstairs to my house that year. Even if I insist on seeing grandma, I will not go down to the attic, let alone have such an opportunity to be with the stars and share the table with you."

"Cheers!"
