Chapter 403 Lin Mei’s adoptive father comes
The house was very lively during dinner, with two full tables of people, one for the elders and one for the younger ones.
Now Lin Xiaoxia and Wang Lijuan have reconciled, and the family is more harmonious. Wang Lijuan used to be distant in her words, but now she is no longer like that, because she has accepted this family from the bottom of her heart and considers herself a member of the Lin family.
After dinner, Lin Xiaoxia and the others sat down and listened to Lin Miao talk about some things that happened at the border. It was really more thrilling than watching a TV series.
This also made Lin Xiaoxia admire the military profession even more.
Speaking of which, my family is quite something to be proud of. Soldiers, doctors, designers, etc. are all people who contribute to the country.
Because his aunt was injured, Lin Jianye said that Lin Miao should stay here for a while and wait until he is fully recovered before visiting each family.
Lin Xiaoxia said that she would come over to accompany her aunt when she was free.
Now Lin Mei is also on vacation, so Lin Miao is not alone at home during the day.
Lin Xiaoxia and the others stayed here until late at night before going home.
The next day at noon, Lu Jingshen came back and said that he had to go on a business trip in the afternoon. There was an ancient bridge in Shuncheng that was at risk of collapse after the rain, but this bridge had historical significance, so the top bridge design talents in the province were transferred there to come up with a plan to repair the bridge.
Lin Xiaoxia knew that in this era, the country began to progress rapidly, and people paid attention not only to food, clothing, housing and transportation, but also to the national culture. She also understood the significance of Lu Jingshen's work, so while helping him clean up, she told him not to worry about family and just concentrate on his work.
After seeing Lu Jingshen off, Lin Xiaoxia felt a little lonely sitting at home, so she packed up her things and went to her mother's house to stay for two days. Coincidentally, her aunt came back and kept her company.
Arriving at Lin Jianye's house, Lin Mei opened the door and was very happy to see Lin Xiaoxia: "Sister, you're here. My aunt and I said we were going to call you, and here you are."
Lin Xiaoxia said, "Your brother-in-law is on a business trip, and I came here because I had nothing to do at home."
Lin Miao sat on the sofa: "Come in quickly and sit next to my aunt."
Lin Xiaoxia smiled and said, "Aunt, I bought you some big bones on the way. I'll put them in the kitchen first and make soup for you later."
Lin Miao said: "Don't bother, my injury will heal in a few days."
Lin Mei rushed to help Lin Xiaoxia get the big bone: "Sister, go wash your hands and talk to my aunt, I'll go wash the bones."
Lin Xiaoxia said: "Okay, then you go and clean it up first, I'll do it later."
Lin Mei agreed and took the bones to the kitchen. She used to cook and do a lot of housework at home. Although Huang Wanxia doesn't let her do everything now, Lin Mei is very diligent and still rushes to do the work.
Lin Xiaoxia washed her hands and sat next to Lin Miao: "Aunt, is there a rule about when you go to work?"
Lin Miao said, "Three months later. My vacation is long. The team originally told me to come back when I was almost well, but I was anxious. When I thought of you and Xiaoya, I wanted to come back to see you. Later, I learned about your fourth uncle's situation, and I was even more worried about him, so I came back early."
"You are also my aunt. You are so seriously injured and you have to travel so far. It really doesn't matter if you spend a few days here. Besides, if you want to see us, we can also go to see you."
"I have to come back no matter what, even if it's ten days or half a month earlier, it's okay."
"Aunt, you really have to take good care of yourself this time. I'll hire someone to clean up the old house, and I'll fix it for you when the time comes. You can just go back and live there. But there's no rush. Come back when everything is ready, otherwise we won't be at ease."
"You're all too nervous. I'm back alone, and I'm really fine. I'm just a little slow in my movements."
"That won't do either. You have to take good care of it when you come back."
"Okay, I'll do as you say." Then he added, "Let me take another look. I'm sure you look like me."
Lin Xiaoxia looked at Lin Miao and smiled: "Well, before I thought they were just similar in spirit or from a certain angle, but now that I look at it this way, they really are alike."
"That's right. I used to find Ai Zhu strange. She doesn't look like someone from our family at all. But heredity isn't always a virtue, so I didn't think too much about it."
"It's mainly because they're children raised by our own family. Who would think in that direction?"
"Yes, luckily you are smart and found Xiaoya back, otherwise our family would never know what happened to Xiaoya in this life."
"I'm also very glad to have found Xiaoya. Fortunately, our family is reunited."
"I'm relieved to see that you and Xiaoya are doing well. Jingshen is a really good kid. He doesn't talk much, but he treats you well. I heard from your parents that your in-laws treat you very well too."
"Well, Meng Qiuju had instilled a lot of bad ideas into me before. When I first got married, I really messed up their family, but they didn't make things difficult for me at all. I'm really grateful to my in-laws."
"Then you should be more filial to your parents-in-law from now on. When your sister-in-law gets better, I will go with you to see them."
"Well, my sister-in-law's injury has healed, and my in-laws are about to move. It's a good time for you to go and play for a few days."
"Okay, then my aunt will come along and join in the fun."
The two chatted for a while, Lin Mei packed up the bones, and Lin Xiaoxia went out to boil the bones.
Then I cleaned up the dishes in the kitchen and prepared what I would cook in the evening.
Lin Miao looked at his two sensible and capable nieces, feeling both happy and distressed, as they were both children who had suffered a lot.
Lin Xiaoxia cooked dinner in the evening and Lin Mei helped. Huang Wanxia felt really distressed about these two close-fitting little cotton jackets.
Before going to bed, Lu Jingshen called and said that everything was settled there, they were staying in a hotel, everything was fine, so Lin Xiaoxia didn't have to worry, and he also felt relieved that she could stay at her parents' home for a few days.
Because there were many people at home, Lin Xiaoxia didn't say anything too cheesy. She just said good night and hung up the phone.
All four rooms in Lin Jianye's house are full, and the house is indeed lively.
The next morning, Lin Mei went out to buy an English book. She had not returned for more than half an hour. Lin Xiaoxia was worried and went out to check. Because the convenience store was downstairs, she would normally be back in ten minutes. Lin Mei was not a person who liked to play, so she shouldn't have taken so long.
Lin Xiaoxia went downstairs and saw Lin Meihe talking to a man on the side of the road. She looked carefully and found that this was Lin Mei’s adoptive father Qin Zhigang.
She hurried over and walked into the room where she heard Qin Zhigang say to Lin Mei, "Zhao Di, no matter what, we were once a family. We treated you well, so you should at least help us this time, right?"
Lin Xiaoxia walked over, stood in front of Lin Mei, and said to Qin Zhigang, "Our two families no longer have any relationship. Why are you looking for my sister again?"
Qin Zhigang saw Lin Xiaoxia clenching her fists nervously: "I, Zhaodi's sister, I have no choice. If nothing happened, I wouldn't come to find you again..."
Lin Xiaoxia interrupted Qin Zhigang: "My sister is Lin Mei. Our two families have no relationship. Please leave quickly, or don't blame me for being rude."
