Lin Shugan did not rush to tell his mother the important matters, but asked them to have a good rest for the night. He would take her to a place tomorrow.
"Hey~ Where? Are you taking your mom with you and not us?"
Lin Guoqing quipped curiously, "Don't they say that when daughters grow up, they talk to their mothers about their worries, and when sons grow up, they talk to their fathers? Why is it that in their family, they always talk to their mothers? Is he a really bad father?"
Lin Shugan didn't know what to say and scratched his head awkwardly. "My mom will tell you after she goes there! Oh, you guys should get some rest first!"
Lin Shumei and Lin Shuchao squatted on the side and yawned, but refused to go to bed immediately. Even though Lin Guoqing and Shen Chunhua also went into the house to sleep, they still held Lin Shu and wouldn't let him leave.
Why is their family reunion different from what's shown on TV? Shouldn't they be hugging, shedding tears, expressing their affection? Why does one or the other have to go to bed first?
"Second brother, are you going back to sleep now?" Lin Shuchao asked Lin Shugan while yawning.
Lin Shugan shook his head and said, "I'm not running around. I just need to get back to the dormitory before the curfew."
"Then take us out for a walk!" Lin Shuchao stood up and rushed over, and Lin Shumei beside him followed.
The night in Shanghai was so dazzling that they still reminisce about it. As soon as it gets dark, they think about going out to play.
Lin Shugan: ...
“It’s not busy here at night.”
"Huh? How boring is it?"
"It's not as lively as where we are."
Lin Shuchao and Lin Shumei refused to believe it and dragged their second brother out for a walk.
Facts have proved that Lin Shugan was not lying.
"It's only around eight o'clock, why are there so few people on the streets..."
"Because I have to go to work tomorrow, early to bed and early to rise is good for my health."
Lin Shugan, looking helpless, took them for a walk in the dark before returning to the guesthouse. "Go to bed early. You yawn so hard you could string beads together. I'll take you for a good walk tomorrow."
…
When the two children dragged Lin Shu out of the house, Lin Guoqing also rushed to Chen Chunhua's place. They were a triple room, and the old lady was already asleep, so Lin Guoqing whispered to Chen Chunhua in a low voice.
"Could there be something wrong with the second one?"
"What's going on?"
"Tsk! Girlfriend! Look, he just said he'd take you somewhere tomorrow. Could it be that he's taking you to see his girlfriend?"
Chen Chunhua: ...
She put one hand on her waist and the other hand on the wall and said silently, "Lao Lin~"
"Hmm?" Lin Guoqing is forty years old and has no doubts. When facing his wife, his eyes are still bright and clear.
"Your son is here to join the army, not to go to college. He's surrounded by men everywhere, so where can he find a partner?"
"Tsk!" Lin Guoqing tutted again, "You don't understand! Any of our brothers in the army can introduce him to someone! Besides, he's currently serving as a guard for a leader. Maybe the family of that cadre in the family compound has taken a liking to him and wants to introduce him to someone?"
Chen Chunhua recalled the appearance of her second son.
Adding a centimeter to his height would make him barely 178cm tall, a bit taller than Lin Guoqing. He looks more like me, or to put it bluntly, delicate. He used to be a pale-faced scholar, but now he's in the army. He's a bit darker and a bit more muscular, but still delicate. Can you barely call him a man of both civil and military talents?
but……
"It would be fine if he gets into the military academy, but if he doesn't, he's a conscript with a rural household registration and will be able to go home in two years. Who would introduce him to a date?"
"How can I say that for sure..."
"Hey, that's enough, go wash up and go to bed! You'll know tomorrow!"
"Then dress nicely tomorrow! What if something unexpected happens?"
"I only brought two sets of clothes. What's the big deal about them being good-looking..."
"Tsk! Didn't I just buy one in Shanghai?"
"Wearing new clothes now for the New Year?"
"What if?"
"Oh, I know, I know, I'm going to take a shower!"
…
Chen Chunhua finally followed Lin Guoqing's request and put on the latest camel cashmere coat, a white turtleneck sweater with a cashmere scarf of the same color, a pair of cowhide boots and a cashmere hat.
This outfit was originally paired with stockings and high heels for her by Shumei, who said that if her mother went out like this, she would definitely blind everyone's eyes. Chen Chunhua asked her to go out bare-legged to feel the temperature, and finally forced her to pair it with light-colored suit pants and boots.
Even so, she felt that it was a bit too flashy. Such a light color, and it was all cashmere inside and out. Wearing this in Sihe Village during the New Year... If you didn't know her, you would think she was a real capitalist.
But I couldn't help but feel that several people in my family said it looked good. Even Liang Shengdi said that people can occasionally wear a set of gold clothes to pretend to be Buddha. This shows the gold content of this piece of clothing.
So I finally bought it. Even if I can't wear it in the village, I can still wear it to show off when I go out to do business or attend occasions.
While lying in bed last night, Chen Chunhua had indeed pondered the possibility Lin Guoqing had mentioned. What if a big boss really saw Shugan's potential? Then she really couldn't lose face by leaving.
If she paired it with some of her gold jewelry, she could let the other party know that Lin Shugang's family was not bad, and at least he couldn't be taken away to be a son-in-law.
When Lin Shu saw his mother downstairs in the guesthouse that morning, her mouth was wide open enough for an egg to fit in.
“Mom…you…”
"Brother, does our mom look good?" Lin Shumei skipped down, holding Chen Chunhua's hand, "I picked it out for her! I originally wanted to keep it for the New Year, but mom said it's not suitable for people in the village!"
When Lin Shumei woke up in the morning and saw Chen Chunhua wearing this outfit, she thought she had taken it off outside because she didn't want to wear it in the village. Seeing her mother look so good in this outfit, Lin Shumei was happier than if she had put on new clothes herself.
Lin Shu nodded and said, "It looks good, very good." His mother was already good-looking, and she looked even more dazzling dressed like this.
Not inferior to my aunt at all!
"Then let's go." Lin Shu quickly stood up. His aunt had called a car to take him here today, and he could take her mother there by car.
"Dad, you hang out here with grandma and the others first. I'll take mom over there first."
Lin Guoqing was still very curious, "You really don't want us to go together..."
Lin Shugan smiled and said, "Let mom go first. There will definitely be a chance for you to see her."
Very good. Lin Guoqing was very satisfied. This further confirmed his thoughts.
He winked at Chen Chunhua - See, I'm right, right?
Chen Chunhua rolled her eyes at him, then followed Lin Shu out, but when she saw the military green car outside...
Well, she felt that Lin Guoqing might really guess right this time.
