Unlike his brother's obsessive possessiveness, Jin Lou is a normal man. Even though he still has feelings for Su Niannian in his heart, as she got married, he hid these feelings deep inside. Especially in front of his brother, he forced himself to transform those feelings into love for his sister. "In my heart, she will always be like a sister..."
I glanced at the sacred light on my brother's face,
Jin Chuan used a lot of restraint not to laugh out loud.
What sister?!
It was simply a joke to him. Gao Xianlan said that when Jin Lou found out that Su Niannian was getting married that day, he was so angry that he vomited blood. Although he was surprised, he was not unexpected. After all, he was the one who broke the promise first. As for Su Niannian's marriage, he could only wish her the best. But Jin Lou had regarded Su Niannian as his own private property since childhood. At this moment, he was afraid that his heart was bleeding.
No one knew what Jin Chuan was thinking as he stabbed someone in the back.
"Her husband is a soldier, have you heard?"
"..." Jin Lou's eyes dimmed for a moment, and he pursed his lips: "It's good, Nian Nian has liked soldiers since she was a child."
"But their relationship is average. You know Su Niannian, she is actually cold-hearted..." Even though he has been entrenched in Ning County for many years, he has not been able to get a good face from the other party. However, it is more challenging to conquer a woman like this.
The other party actually knew to join forces with Xue Weidong to plot against him. For a moment, Jin Chuan didn't know whether to be angry or laugh. The only thing he could understand was to temporarily hide his thoughts in front of his brother. He still didn't give up: "If you want, our Jin family has plenty of ways to return to Ning County."
"unnecessary."
Jin Lou changed his hesitation and his expression became serious and earnest: "I told you not to disturb her! The police station agreed to let you stay at home for observation, but it doesn't mean that you are completely innocent. Jin Chuan, Nian Nian doesn't like you. If it is verified that the mistakes you made are true, I will personally send you to the police station and will never tolerate it. Do you understand?"
After saying a series of words, he couldn't help but cough violently twice, and the sudden movement even made his waist hunch two inches.
Jin Chuan, who was originally slacking off, stood up straight in an instant and said, "Okay."
He could not say anything to refute Jin Lou. He thought his brother had died on the battlefield and the army had awarded him the honor of a martyr. But who knew that he had survived and was captured by the enemy. After more than three years of torture, Jin Lou did not reveal a single word. He kept the secrets of the army firmly and was tortured beyond recognition. Finally, with the help of a compatriot, he traveled through mountains and rivers and finally escaped back from the border. Unfortunately, things had changed.
The girl he had always dreamed of had already married someone else.
For a moment, even Gao Xianlan was worried that her eldest son would not survive, because he had confessed that the only motivation for him to persevere came from Su Niannian. It was impossible for him to say that he didn't like her anymore!
Gao Xianlan didn't even dare let the Jin brothers mention Su Niannian again.
Jin Lou smiled bitterly for a moment, and scolded his brother like he did when they were children: "Don't say one thing and do another."
"I can't even get into the research institute, so what's there to make a mistake? With you and mother supervising me, I will make sure I don't cross the line." Even if he crossed the line, he couldn't let anyone find out. There would never be another little bastard like Xue Weidong. Jin Chuan's smile was as gentle as his brother's, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.
…
New Year's Eve.
The Gu family was more lively than ever before. Because of Shen Xiu'e's arrival, the yard was as noisy as a pot of boiling water. Even the second son of the Su family came here by train with eager eyes, and brought a backpack full of mountain products. Su Zhaodi asked Wang Wei to go to the supply and marketing cooperative early in the morning to queue up and buy two kilograms of pork and ribs. The family's meat coupons were almost used up.
I bought two or three pounds of fresh small fish.
Shen Xiu'e and Huang Juan from next door hit it off immediately. They made an appointment to go to the market early in the morning and returned around noon.
The basket on his back was filled with seasonal vegetables and snacks.
Xue Ya happily took the food to share with her brother. As for Su Zhaodi and Su Jianshan, they were frying small fish in the kitchen. The smell of oil filled the courtyard. Fortunately, it was New Year's Day and meat could be seen in every household. For a moment, no one thought the smell was special. However, the Su family was definitely the first to use oil to fry fish and meat!
The tall and strong Wang Wei was huddled in front of the stove, burning a fire.
Looking forward to receiving food from my daughter-in-law.
Shen Xiu'e and Su Laoer were rolling noodles in the yard, while Su Niannian was looking after Fubao and Xue Ya. At this warm moment, Wang Guifen couldn't help but sigh: "I can understand that Shanyue doesn't have time to bring the children back, but what's wrong with Xiao Gu?! Why doesn't he go home for the New Year? How can you be comfortable in the army with nothing to do?! When I think of this, the freshly fried crispy meat doesn't taste good anymore!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Zhaodi, wearing a bib, ran out with a plate of fried fish. The delicious fish meat was covered with refined starch. It was so satisfying when you took a bite, with juice splashing out. Even the small bones became crispy and fragrant, making people want a second bite after taking one.
The first bite of the New Year's Eve dinner was of course delivered to Wang Guifen's mouth. She was unexpectedly stuffed with a mouthful of fried fish by her eldest granddaughter. Before her brain could react, her mouth automatically chewed: "Smells good! It smells really good! I haven't eaten something this good in decades--!"
Shen Xiu'e couldn't help but laugh out loud with her man. Even Su Niannian couldn't help laughing. After a while, she explained, "Gu Zhiye is on a mission and will try to come back."
Glancing at the large plate of fried fish, Su Niannian's eyes brightened a little.
"Sister Zhaodi, do you still have fried fish? If it's convenient, can you help me pack a lunch box? I want to send some to a friend..."
"No problem!" Su Zhaodi moved quickly and immediately filled Su Niannian's aluminum lunch box with fried fish. This young couple contributed the most meat tickets, so of course their requests were met unconditionally.
The fragrance secretly seeped out from the gap, and even the surface of the lunch box was warm. Su Zhaodi carefully put a woolen cover on her sister. The cover was left over from knitting a sweater for Wang Wei last time, and it was most suitable for covering the lunch box.
Su Niannian handed the child to her grandmother and went out with the lunch box.
Wang Guifen's nagging was left behind. Su Niannian walked on the snow, step by step, towards the dormitory of the research institute. Although she did not contact Xue Weidong deliberately during this period, but during this happy family festival, he must have returned from Heilongjiang Province. Su Niannian could not invite Xue Weidong to her home for the New Year, but it was still possible to send some gifts. Now that Jin Chuan was gone, Ning County was so harmonious.
Standing outside the tube building of the research institute, unexpectedly, Xue Weidong did not come. Facing Su Niannian's doubts, his colleague answered vaguely: "Looking for Xiao Xue?! I don't know where he went. He hasn't come back for six days..."
