"Xiao Shen, you must have something to do when you return to the provincial capital. How can we bother you with personal matters?" Su Meijuan stared at Shen Qinian while speaking, trying to find clues from his expression, "I'll just accompany Ningning on the train tomorrow."
After hearing what his mother said, Tang Wanning realized how abrupt her proposal was.
Putting aside whether Shen Cinian's return to the provincial capital was for official business, it was not appropriate for them to be alone in a car.
What if Shen Ci Nian has a fiancée or is already married, wouldn't that cause misunderstandings?
However, before Tang Wanning could speak, Tang Huaixu couldn't wait to say, "Mom, you're not young anymore. Taking the train is so tiring, how can I let you come? I can go with my sister tomorrow."
Hearing this, Tang Wanning also spoke up and agreed, "I'm sorry, Comrade Shen, I was inconsiderate. I'd better take the train with my brother tomorrow."
Watching the cooked duck...
Pooh.
The opportunity that was hard-earned was about to fly away. How could Shen Cinian agree to it? There was a hint of urgency in his voice.
"It's okay, Auntie. My comrades and I were originally going back to the provincial capital. It's just on the way, so we won't be delayed." Shen Yinian's fingers rubbed subconsciously, as if he was considering his words: "Besides, there are so many evildoers on the train, and there are countless people who cut pockets and steal things. It's not safe, is it?"
Seeing Shen Cinian's attitude, Su Meijuan was almost certain that he must have fallen in love with her daughter.
But can he really accept Ningning's situation?
Even if Shen Cinian can accept it, what about his family?
Although Su Meijuan didn't know Chen Cinian, she could guess from the natural dignity in his every move that he came from an extraordinary family.
"Would it be inconvenient for you to take Ningning with you back to the provincial capital? It would be bad if it caused any unnecessary misunderstandings."
Hearing the tentative tone in Su Meijuan's voice, Shen Cinian was stunned for a moment.
Then, his earlobes turned pink in an instant.
It turns out that his little thoughts have been discovered?
Suppressing the throbbing in his heart, Shen Ci Nian answered seriously: "There is nothing inconvenient. On the contrary, with more people together, the road will be more lively."
After hearing Shen Cinian's answer, Su Meijuan was basically certain that this boy definitely had feelings for her daughter!
But when Su Meijuan saw the indifferent expression on her daughter's face, she looked at Shen Cinian with sympathy.
Her silly daughter probably hasn't understood Xiao Shen's intention yet, right?
When she heard Xiao Shen say that he could take her to the provincial capital, she believed him.
She didn't even think about it, with so many people going to the provincial capital every day, why didn't Xiao Shen take anyone else with him but her.
However, it would be great if my daughter could go to the provincial capital with the soldiers.
In addition, in this era, the people most trusted in rural areas are the police and the military.
Even if there are one or two bad guys among the soldiers, it will not affect everyone's love and admiration for them!
Besides, taking the train is really unsafe. Having your things stolen is not a big deal, but the biggest worry is encountering kidnappers.
Seeing that Su Meijuan was hesitant to speak, Shen Cinian thought she was worried about Tang Wanning's return.
So he spoke again: "Don't worry, Auntie, we will be back in two or three days from the provincial capital this time, so Comrade Tang can also take our car when we return to the city.
After we arrive in the provincial capital, I will arrange for Comrade Tang to stay at our military district’s guesthouse, so there’s no need to worry about his safety.”
Anyway, Su Meijuan had already seen through his thoughts, so Shen Cinian simply spoke out his inner thoughts.
After hearing what Shen Cinian said, Su Meijuan, who was originally ready to agree, now had no worries.
"Okay, then I'll trouble you to take care of Ningning."
"Don't worry, Auntie, I will."
Seeing that his mother and Shen Cinian had reached a consensus, Tang Wanning was naturally happy to see it happen.
As for safety issues, Tang Wanning was not worried at all.
After all, with her skills, even if two or three strong men came, she would be the one to worry about.
"Mom, I'm going to see Comrade Shen off."
"Why send me off? It's getting dark soon, so it's a good time for you to stay and have a quick meal." Su Meijuan was worried that Shen Cinian was shy and embarrassed to stay, so she added with a smile: "Just think of it as your aunt thanking you in advance for taking care of Ningning."
Tang Wanning looked up at the sky. The sun was still shining brightly, and his brows were almost tied into a knot.
No, how did mother know that it was going to get dark soon?
Why didn't she notice it at all?
Forget it, forget it. Mom is the boss in the family. Whatever she says goes.
As long as she is happy.
Looking at her daughter's expression, Su Meijuan was afraid that she would say something inappropriate, so she hurriedly urged:
"Ningning, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and invite Xiao Shen into the house and pour him a cup of tea. We've been talking for quite some time, and Xiao Shen must be thirsty."
Hearing that he could stay for dinner in the evening, Shen Cinian couldn't suppress the corners of his happy mouth.
"Then I'll trouble you, Auntie."
"No trouble, no trouble, you guys go play, I'll go prepare dinner."
Tang Huaixu: You are all happy, but I am the only one who is hurt.
Seeing her son with his head down, Su Meijuan pulled him into the kitchen and said, "Don't stand there anymore. Come and help me."
Xiao Shen wants to stay for dinner, so shouldn’t we make something sumptuous?
All kinds of food, including chicken, duck, goose and fish, must be placed on the table.
It just so happened that Xiao Shen saved Ningning, and they haven't thanked him properly yet.
Let's take advantage of today's meal to express the Tang family's gratitude to Xiao Shen.
After watching his mother and younger brother go into the kitchen, Tang Wanning took Shen Cinian back to the main hall.
The sun outside is so strong and it's still very hot. She doesn't want to stand there stupidly and get sunburned.
Tang Wanning greeted him warmly, "Please sit down first. I'll get you a glass of water."
After all, Shen Cinian helped her a lot in this matter, so she had to be polite.
Otherwise, even if Tang Wanning took his younger brother to the provincial capital, it would not be easy to enter the mountains smoothly.
After all, she will be gone for a whole day. What reason can she use to convince her brother?
Shen Ci Nian said in a low voice: “It’s troublesome.”
After placing the water in front of Shen Qinian, Tang Wanning also sat down.
"Thank you so much for this time. Otherwise, if I took the train to the provincial capital, the smell on the train would be enough to make me drink a pot of wine."
"Train trips are usually long distances, and people don't shower for days. Plus, it's hot, so the smells get mixed up."
Shen Qinian also had a deep understanding of this, but he was a soldier and had experienced all kinds of hardships, so this little smell was nothing to him.
Not to mention anything else, even when they are training normally, they are all covered in sweat.
However, in order to avoid being disliked by Tang Wanning, Shen Cinian started making trouble when he returned home at night, making his three comrades miserable.
