"Linglong, come out when you're done."
"good."
Because he had an appointment with Linglong, Zheng Tiansen ate slowly. When there were few people in the cafeteria, Linglong finally had time to come in.
"Brother Zheng."
"I'm here to tell you that the political commissar and I have gone to the Second Regiment to seek justice for the Liu family mother and daughter causing trouble. If Liu Baogen isn't stupid, he will control his family, and they won't dare to come after you again."
Linglong didn't expect it to happen so quickly, but she was still happy. "That's great."
"By the way, you're always looking at those textbooks. Do you want me to help you find some supplementary materials or exercises?"
Although he didn't know the ultimate goal of Linglong's study, having teaching aids and test questions could help promote learning and test learning achievements, which was not a bad thing after all.
"Brother Zheng, there's no need to look for a place specifically. I'll go to the bookstore next time I go to the city." It would be great if there was one, but she felt it was too much trouble to look for it deliberately.
Since she said so, Zheng Tiansen could only agree, but he still thought that he had to prepare it. At worst, he could just look at it and think about it himself, and then use it when explaining the problem to Linglong.
The two of them had a pleasant conversation, but Liu Baogen's expression was not very good after seeing his mother.
"Baogen, we never thought she would be so aggressive and sharp-tongued now. She's completely different now. She's really getting bolder by climbing up the social ladder."
Liu Baogen just felt overwhelmed. He thought that his mother's intervention would at least bring some benefits, but he didn't expect that it would make things worse.
Not only did he fail to win back Linglong's heart, but it seemed that he had pushed her further away. His situation was becoming increasingly difficult.
"Mother, you and Baoqin, don't go looking for Linglong for a while."
"Then we are here, aren't we?" Liu's mother frowned.
"Let's wait a few more days and see how things go." In fact, he was not willing to give up either.
How about something soft?
Putting aside what happened today, my mother had been kind to Linglong before. If she had changed her attitude and spoken to her in a friendly manner, I believe she would have been able to let go of her grudge.
"By the way, your daughter-in-law, Yingying, since Baoqin and I are here, let us meet her too." As a mother-in-law, she came all the way here, and she had to meet her own daughter-in-law.
When Liu Baogen heard that his mother was going to meet Xu Yingying, he felt it was troublesome.
If possible, he didn't want them to meet.
"Mom, I can't spare the time to go to the city right now. I guess Yingying is busy with work, so I may not be able to meet her."
"It's okay if you're busy, but what is she busy with? I came here from so far away, shouldn't she take a leave to see me? Why does I have to run to see her?" She has no sense of being a daughter-in-law at all, and Liu's mother is dissatisfied.
Nothing works, nothing works. The joy of joining the army has long since dissipated, and she just feels a little lazy.
When her eyes shifted to her daughter sitting in the corner, Liu's mother finally found what she wanted to do.
"Bao Gen, while we're here, why don't you introduce Bao Qin to a few more officers? If she can marry one of your officers, wouldn't that be a great benefit to you?"
Liu Baoben originally wanted to think that no officer would be interested in someone like Liu Baoqin, but only after hearing the benefits did he start to think about it.
Looking at my sister carefully, I find that she is actually not too bad looking. Although she doesn't look like me, she has inherited the good looks of her parents, but she can't be said to be ugly either. With some grooming, she is still young after all, so this may not be a bad idea.
"Okay, I'll see how to arrange it. Mother, you should also keep an eye on Baoqin and don't let her run around and cause any trouble."
"Baoqin, did you hear that? Behave well and let your brother find you an officer in the army to be your husband."
Liu Baoqin's sadness at being hurt by her own brother had not yet completely dissipated. Upon hearing this, she only pouted and said, "Captain Zheng, please? I just want to marry him."
Liu Bao was just about to scold his sister when an idea suddenly occurred to him and he suddenly thought that this was actually a good idea!
Zheng Tiansen and Linglong are not dating. If Baoqin and Zheng Tiansen get together, firstly, Zheng Tiansen will become his brother-in-law, and it will be difficult for her to target him. Secondly, it will also allow him to break up with Linglong.
When Linglong gets sad, won’t her hope be greatly increased?
The more I think about him, the better it feels.
Looking at his sister, he said meaningfully, "Zheng Tiansen is indeed a good candidate for a husband. However, he has high standards. We still need to consider whether he is suitable for the job."
"Brother, are you willing to help me?"
"Nonsense, you are my only sister, and you are obsessed with him. What else can I do if I don't help you?" Liu Baogen looked like a brother with deep affection for his sister.
Liu Baoqin immediately became happy. "Brother, you are so kind to me."
"Don't be too happy yet. You know, Zheng Tiansen is dating Linglong right now. This matter is a bit complicated and not that easy."
"Brother, I'm relying on you."
"Then be a good boy and don't get me into trouble again."
"I know."
When Liu Baoqin happily volunteered to go to the Second Regiment canteen with the money and tickets Liu Baogen gave her to get food, Liu's mother worriedly said to her son: "Baogen, is this okay? That Zheng Tiansen, I don't think he is a good person."
"Mom, that's why we have to take a long-term view."
Of course Zheng Tiansen would not be willing to marry Baoqin, but what if he had to?
Thinking of his own experience, he smiled sinisterly.
Maybe Zheng Tiansen will become a great help to him in the future.
After he finished his fantasy, he asked about other things while his sister was away.
"Mom, Linglong, I've been thinking about some of her childhood memories these past few days. When she first came to our house, she didn't seem like an ordinary child. What was the home she came to be like?"
He was young and didn't pay attention to those things, but now when he thought about it, he felt that there were many things wrong.
He vaguely remembered that when Linglong first came home, he didn't like her because his mother always came home because of Linglong's family, and he was a little hostile towards her.
It was just that she was pretty and cute at that time, like an exquisite doll. He had never seen such a pretty girl in the village, so he liked her.
But why did he become distant and disgusted with her later?
It seemed as if she had changed into those old clothes, and she became more and more gray, timid and cowardly.
It also seemed that as he grew up, everyone laughed at him for having a child bride and his sensitive young heart.
In short, the only impression he had was alienation and disgust.
After thinking about some of the events of that year, he felt more and more regretful.
How could he forget what Linglong used to look like? If he had paid a little more attention, he would have discovered Linglong, this "unpolished gem". How could he have missed her so easily and caused the situation today?
The more he thought about it, the deeper his regret became, and he even felt a little painful.
If he had never had her, perhaps he wouldn't feel so bad, but she once belonged to him completely, but he pushed her into the arms of another man.
When asked by her most caring son, Mother Liu was not panicked, but she did look dazed for a moment.
The home that girl came from is the Zhong family.
