Chapter 189
After Zhang Manqin's family came back, Han Hua took Zhang Xiao and Zhang Guoping back to their hometown for a reunion.
"Big sister."
"Aunt."
"Aunt."
It was the second time for both children to see Zhang Manqin, so they were not unfamiliar with her.
"Thank you for your hard work, brother and sister."
Zhang Manqin sighed, a woman with two children, but fortunately she had her husband's family to help her, otherwise life would be really difficult.
“It’s not hard.”
Han Hua firmly believed that her man was not dead, and she always had a belief in her heart that there was still hope for the future.
"My dear, this is a blessing, to have so many children always with you."
Zhang Gaoyuan was envious of the excitement.
He didn't want to see anyone from the second branch of the Zhang family. There was only Wanwan from the first branch, and his married daughters couldn't come back to visit often. On weekdays, there were only the two grandparents, and it was a bit lonely.
Zhang Wan was fine, as she had been used to staying at home since she was a child. Zhang Gaoyuan had difficulty walking before, so he was very lonely.
Zhang Changshun shook his head: "The children have grown up and have their own things to do. Gatherings like this are only occasional. Usually, it's just the two of us at home."
"Now that Jiaojiao is back, you're in high spirits."
…
Zhang Lin and his two companions played with a group of children and cousins for half a day. While they were resting, they sneaked into the cowshed to visit Tan Jian.
Zhang Lin has been to the bullpen countless times and is very familiar with the place.
It was the first time for Qin Chengfeng and Zhang Wan to come here, and they were very curious about Tan Jian.
"Linlin is here."
Behind the cowshed, Tan Jian was washing clothes in a basin. When he saw Zhang Lin and the other two, he looked around vigilantly. Only after he made sure that there was no one around did he smile.
"Uncle Tan, this is my second brother and his wife."
Zhang Lin put down the things she brought for Tan Jian.
Under the secret care of Zhang Lin and Zhang Changshun, Tan Jian's health is very good, at least he is free of illness and pain, and he is much better than when he was first seen, when he was almost dead.
Tan Jian and Gu Qingshan have always been grateful to Zhang Lin and Zhang Changshun.
"Linlin, next time you should come less often. If someone sees you, it will have consequences for your family."
Tan Jian recognized Qin Chengfeng and knew that he was the adopted child of the Zhang family and had been adopted by his biological father in the capital.
Moreover, he also knew Qin Zizhou!
Qin Zizhou was his student at first.
When Qin Zizhou first came here, he also secretly visited Tan Jian, but Qin Chengfeng didn't know about it.
Tan Jian looked at Zhang Wan with satisfaction. Qin Zizhou was a good daughter-in-law.
After Zhang Lin secretly left some food and supplies for Tan Jian and other elderly people in the cowshed, he unexpectedly ran into Gu Qingshan.
"Linlin."
Gu Qingshan looked at Zhang Lin with a smile.
Zhang Lin was surprised. Why did this person come?
Instinctively, he used the Qi-gazing technique to check and found that Gu Qingshan's luck was quite strong, and it seemed that he had been promoted.
However, there is a black line between her eyebrows, which is not very obvious. Many people have such a black line, so it is not very abnormal.
Zhang Lin guessed correctly. After Gu Qingshan left here and returned to the army, everything went more smoothly.
Having escaped the attacks of the female supporting character Zhang Yuzhen, his luck grew instead of diminishing, and he was promoted to battalion commander within a few years.
"Why is Qingshan here?" Tan Jian was also surprised.
Although Gu Qingshan often wrote to me, he had only visited me twice in the past few years. After all, the army was too busy, and he had to go back to visit his parents during his vacation, so he had no time.
"Uncle, my friend is going to Shancheng for exchange and study. I was worried about sending her here, so I came to see you by the way."
Speaking of friends, Gu Qingshan felt awkward for a moment.
"Brother Gu, this is your partner, right?"
Zhang Lin asked with a smile.
She was a little curious about who he would look for after getting rid of Zhang Yuzhen's care.
"Don't talk nonsense, we are not lovers, we are just friends."
Gu Qingshan shook his head, with stars twinkling in his eyes.
Zhang Wan and Qin Chengfeng smiled at each other, and understood Gu Qingshan's situation very well.
Zhang Lin was also jealous. The relationship was good, but she was the only single one, so she could be abused at any time.
However, she thinks being single is great!
"Whose family is she from and what's her name?"
Tan Jian was also very happy. His nephew was already in his twenties. Other nephews of his age would have children running around everywhere.
"It's Han Xiaoyue from the Han family in Beijing."
[Korean family again]
[I don’t know if it has any connection with Uncle Han Xuan’s family in Beijing]
Zhang Lin and Zhang Wan looked at each other.
[Sister, this Gu Qingshan’s surname is Gu. Our great-grandmother, who is also my grandmother in this life, and her husband’s surname is also Gu, Gu Huaqiang. I wonder if the two are related.]
Zhang Lin was in deep thought.
I checked Gu Huaqiang's information at the time and found out that he had two sons and two daughters with his later daughter-in-law.
Gu Qingshan is definitely not Gu Huaqiang's child, after all, their ages don't match.
Zhang Wan used clues to find out the relationship between Gu Qingshan and Gu Huaqiang.
"We are uncle and nephew from different families."
Zhang Wan leaned over to Zhang Lin's ear and told her secretly.
Zhang Lin also did a search and found that Han Xiaoyue was indeed related to Han Dong and was the granddaughter of his second uncle.
When Zhang Wan heard Zhang Lin's thoughts, she was speechless.
Although most of the slightly powerful people in the capital knew each other, it was too much of a coincidence that they were linked together like this.
[So this is the world of novels, forced into it by the god of plot. ]
Zhang Lin was also speechless.
[Wait, the name Han Xiaoyue seems familiar. Where have I seen her recently...]
Zhang Lin's eyes lit up. If she hadn't used the intelligence talisman, she might not have reacted so quickly.
When I opened the heroine's plot, I found that Xiao Yue appeared in a scene where she was arguing with the hero.
I continued to search, and sure enough...
Korean girl.
[This Han Xiaoyue is actually the male protagonist’s latest blind date!]
Zhang Wan was stunned.
Is this how you play?
Han Xiaoyue has gone on a blind date with the male lead, and according to the previous plot, they will get engaged in half a month.
So, in just a few days, Han Xiaoyue and the male lead will be engaged.
[From this point of view, Han Xiaoyue definitely did not come to the southwest in the past two days, and she cannot have only studied for a day or two. Otherwise, if she doesn’t return to the capital, it will be too late for the engagement...]
Zhang Lin glanced at Gu Qingshan who was chatting with Tan Jian and Qin Chengfeng.
This guy accompanied the goddess for several days, and before leaving, he remembered to check on his uncle!
Considering the relationship between this guy and Tan Jian, normally he should at least stay with Tan Jian for two or three days. It seems that he is really mesmerized by the beauty.
In the afternoon, Qin Chengfeng went down to the fields to help Zhang Changshun with work. The two sisters closed the door and entered the space.
Zhang Wan was a little curious: "It seems that Han Xiaoyue is also a cannon fodder, or a vicious female supporting role."
Zhang Lin nodded. That's right. If she can compete with the heroine for men, then she is definitely a vicious female supporting role.
"I just don't know whether Han Xiaoyue likes the male lead or not. Many marriages of this level are family marriages, not necessarily because of love."
Zhang Wan is now a child of a large family and knows these things best.
"Whether you like it or not, it was your male protagonist who agreed to the engagement. Before and after the engagement, he was involved with other women. Anyone would be angry."
Zhang Lin picked a watermelon at random, split it in half with one hand, and gave each sister half. Then he took out two spoons from the empty space and ate them.
