Da Wang simply grabbed the box, picked it up and was about to throw it out.

"Brother! Spare my life!" Sanwang shouted in the box.

Lin Lan in the east room asked doubtfully, "Third brother, did you hear our third son's voice? Am I missing him too much and am I hallucinating?"

Han Qingsong hugged her and said, "It's okay, go to sleep."

Lin Lan listened to Sanwang's howling voice coming from outside. This was her real son, not a dream. What was going on?

"My eldest son, what's going on?"

Da Wang's cold voice came from outside, "Mom, you go to sleep, it's okay."

Lin Lan wanted to think about it, but Han Qingsong turned over and held her in his arms. "Third brother, it's really Sanwang. This child has transformed into a living person...ah, I know, he hid in a box? This naughty child, such a big person, hid in a box for a whole night? How tiring it must be!"

She knew that Sanwang must have taken measures so that he wouldn't have to hold it in, but the box was not as big as a human being, so it would be uncomfortable to curl up in it.

This naughty kid!

Han Qingsong: "Let him be."

He locked her in his arms and wouldn't let her go out. Of course, he wouldn't tell her what he had already discovered but ignored, so as not to surprise her.

Lin Lan guessed that he wanted his eldest son to teach his younger brother a lesson, to let him be more careful in the future and not do anything too outrageous? In that case, forget it, she would still sleep.

"My eldest son, take it easy. He's your younger brother." She shouted.

Back then, I had to remind Han Qingsong that he was my biological son, and now I have to remind my eldest brother that he is my biological younger brother. Oh, my mother's heart is really broken.

Da Wang carried the suitcase to the yard and threw it on the ground.

Sanwang rolled out, "Haha, brother, you didn't guess it!"

Da Wang: "..." He really wanted to kick him away. He turned back to the house and was about to close the door.

Sanwang jumped up, "Brother, brother, dear brother!" He took a quick step over and accurately grabbed Dawang's back.

This was the result of Han Qingsong's rigorous training last year. Otherwise, how could he have caught Da Wang with his skills? Of course, although Da Wang wanted to kick him away, he didn't want him to fall to the ground and knock out his teeth, so he stopped moving.

Sanwang used his hands and feet to lie on Dawang's back like a koala. Although he grew much taller, his elder brother grew faster and was still much taller than him.

"Brother, I'm training you to be more vigilant. What if a bad guy sends a dangerous package to your home? This is to remind you to check packages in the future!" Sanwang said righteously.

Da Wang snorted coldly, but didn't tear it off and throw it on the ground, "Go wash up and go to bed."

Sanwang jumped down and quickly washed his face, brushed his teeth and washed his feet. He also listened to the east room to see if there was any movement. Why didn't his mother pay attention to him?

Da Wang brought the box back and put it in the house. Er Wang had already turned on the light, and Mai Sui and Xiao Wang were also awake.

"Haha, little San brother, you are really hardworking!" Several people laughed and ran over to hug Sanwang.

Sanwang hugged them and tried to run to the east room, but Dawang grabbed him by the collar and dragged him back.

Sanwang fluttered his hands and feet, "Brother, let me go, I want to go say hello to mom."

Da Wang: "If you don't want to be thrown out, try it."

Sanwang hesitated for a moment, thinking about his father's cold eyes. He felt that his eldest brother was his real brother and was doing good for him, but his father had always been a bad brother.

He braked just in time.

He was not in the box all the time, but he asked the correspondent to send him there when he arrived at the Revolutionary Committee. The box had holes on the side, so it was very breathable and he didn't feel stuffy. The only discomfort was that the space was not big enough, but he was very tired after sitting on the train and transferring trucks all day, so he curled up in the box and slept soundly. When he woke up, he wanted to come out to scare everyone, but he was found by Da Wang.

Xiao Wang laughed and said, "Little Third Brother, you're lucky you didn't come out to scare us, otherwise I would have kicked you out of the window."

Mai Sui: "You should behave yourself from now on and stop being so weird."

Erwang yawned. Although his training intensity was not as strong as Dawang's, he still felt a little overwhelmed. "Third brother, where are you sleeping?"

Sanwang rushed to Dawang's side, "Of course I'm sharing the same quilt with big brother."

Da Wang kicked him away and said, "Get lost."

Sanwang: "Brother, you are so cold and ruthless." He turned to Xiaowang and said, "Brother Xiaowang, don't you agree?"

Xiao Wang laughed out loud, "Come here, Xiao San brother, Teacher Xiao Wang loves you and will share half of the quilt with you."

Then in the middle of the night, Erwang and Xiaowang were kicked awake by Sanwang!!!

The kangs nowadays are different from those in Shanzui Village. In Shanzui Village, there are windows on the south and walls on the east and west, blocking the three sides. Everyone sleeps in a north-south direction.

The kang here is against the wall on the northeast and southwest sides and open. People sleep east-west. Erwang sleeps against the inner wall, Dawang sleeps on the south side, and Xiaowang is in the middle.

Erwang and Xiaowang were kicked so hard that they stood up and begged Dawang: "Brother, you are still the one who can hold the bed."

Erwang took the initiative to sleep on the outside, Xiaowang was inside him, Sanwang leaned against the wall, and Dawang was on the other side of him.

Only Da Wang can deal with San Wang's sleeping posture.

The next morning, Han Qingsong and Da Wang woke up early as usual. The father and son kept fighting for a while. Da Wang made rapid progress under Han Qingsong's ruthlessness. After the two finished training, Da Wang led his brothers and sisters to do morning exercises. The children in the compound who wanted to join would follow. The brothers Gao Ling and Gao Yu were running along, but their physical strength seemed to be about the same as Xiao Wang and Mai Sui, not even comparable to Er Wang, let alone Da Wang and San Wang.

By the time they finished their training, Lin Lan and Han Qingsong had almost finished breakfast.

"Mom!" Sanwang rushed in exaggeratedly, "I missed you so much!"

Lin Lan stood still and let him pick her up and carry her around for two rounds. Sanwang grew fast, and because of swimming and fitness, his body proportions were very beautiful.

She pinched Sanwang's shoulders and arms, "Little San brother, you are too naughty. Last time you climbed over the wall, I told you to come back through the door next time, but you hid in the suitcase. It's because your father is in a good mood now and doesn't want to beat you."

Lin Lan glanced at Han Qingsong and said, "I've already said this, so don't even think about beating my son." Han Qingsong gave her a look that said, "The son is punished for the mother's fault, and the mother is responsible for the son's fault." Lin Lan pretended not to understand, "Why are you acting so much?"

Sanwang: "Mom, I know." He waved his hand, "There are gifts in the other box, go and look for them. They are all things of the bourgeoisie, we must study them and destroy them!"

Mai Sui and Xiao Wang ran over to open the box first and took out the gifts one by one. It was really a dazzling array. The third brother did not waste the opportunity to go abroad at all.

All kinds of beautiful skirts, hats, leather shoes, even underwear, as well as high-end skin care products and several books.

Mai Sui: "Little Third Brother, you bought so much, how much is it?"

Sanwang: "I didn't buy them. They were all gifts and souvenirs from them, and some of them I won. The books are for you and my second brother. I haven't read any of them."

If they gave him gifts, he could accept them as long as he had reported to his leaders. If someone wanted to give him a gift, he would say they wanted something practical, like something to wear or use.

Mai Sui took the book out and handed it to Er Wang. Er Wang took it and flipped through it. There were four books in total, one of which was a color picture. Out of curiosity, he opened it and froze when he saw it -

"Fuck!" He swore for the first time in his life, and his handsome face immediately turned red.

Da Wang glanced at him and reached for the book, but Er Wang immediately hid behind him and said, "Don't read it."

Dawang: “Show me.”

Erwang: "You will regret it."

Da Wang glanced at him, thought about it, and didn't force it.

Sanwang asked curiously, "What's so beautiful? Let me see."

Mai Sui and Xiao Wang also went to see out of curiosity.

Erwang immediately handed it to his eldest brother. Dawang had good eyesight and saw it immediately.

Dawang: “!!!”

Xiao Wang: "Wow, why are her breasts so big!!!"

Da Wang's face also turned red. He felt that the thing in his hand was like a piece of red-hot charcoal that would not fit anywhere.

Lin Lan heard what was happening outside and rushed in. She calmly took the Japanese-produced pornographic magazine from Da Wang's hand and said with a smile, "You kids, don't read this. It's not good for your health."

She took the magazine, walked outside and handed it to Han Qingsong, "Third brother, you can read it, it's good for your health."

Han Qingsong: “…………”

He looked up at her, his eyes deep, scorching and threatening.

Lin Lan looked innocent, "Third brother, please be pure and don't have dirty thoughts in your head. You are breaking the law knowingly."

She pulled the magazine over and said, "It's confiscated!" She took it to the east room and locked it in a drawer.

Sanwang remembered and went to rummage through his schoolbag, took out a few lumps and stuffed them into Lin Lan's pockets. "Mom, these are little toys I found while shopping in the capital. They're quite interesting. I'll give them to you."

Lin Lan picked up a handful and found some made of metal, jade, glass, porcelain, small gourds, peanuts, small Guanyin, snuff bottles, etc., all of which were not very big.

She fiddled with it and was shocked.

Seeing her astonished expression, Han Qingsong lowered his head to look at the pile of little things and found that there were some made of gold, silver, and two pieces of jade, which looked pretty good.

Lin Lan: ...My third son is really a little god of wealth. Look at the signatures on these small porcelain pieces, they are probably from the Qing Dynasty? She is not good at identifying antiques, but since they are so beautiful and might be antiques, she has to keep them well.

"Thank you, son. I like it very much. If you have any in the future, please bring them back to me." She also showed the children the signature and gave them some advice, "If the handwriting is clear and neat, especially if it is from ancient times, such as bowls or plates, it will be good."

She kept these in a small box in her closet.

Seeing how much his mother treasured the things he brought back, Sanwang became even more excited, "Okay, I'll buy them for you next time I see them."

During breakfast, Erwang's eyes were still a little wandering, and his fair and elegant face was stained with red. Dawang regained his composure, and his eyes were even colder, but the tips of his ears were red. Mai Sui had been fiddling with her skirt before, and no one knew what was going on. Even if the two boys saw her big breasts, they didn't think it was a big deal.

Sanwang also asked Xiaowang: "I didn't see it, is it really that big?"

Xiaowang nodded: "I think it's quite big." He turned his head to look at Lin Lan, wondering if it was as big as his mother's, and then he received a death stare from Heidi.

Xiao Wang said decisively: "It looks like a big steamed bun." He picked up a big steamed bun and took a bite.

Mai Sui: "You two, don't talk nonsense when you go out, or you'll get caught and beaten!"

The two young men chuckled, "Don't say anything, what's there to say? Everyone grows up. Big or small, what does it matter?"

A member of the Han family: "..."

Lin Lan: "Little Third Brother, how many days will you stay here?"

Sanwang thought for a moment and said, "Mom, do I have to go to school even if I stay here for a few days?"

Lin Lan nodded: "That's right."

Sanwang: "Then let's talk for a few more days." He estimated that if he stayed for two days, his mother would let him go to school.

Xiao Wang laughed and said, "Little San brother, we have a performance going to the district, you can come too."

Sanwang: "Of course, of course. It's better than going to school... It's not bad. It's all good. Haha."

After dinner, Sanwang picked out a light green windbreaker for Lin Lan, "Mom, you can wear this to work, it's very handsome." This time he deliberately didn't choose something too eye-catching in case his mother was afraid to wear it.

Nowadays, there are more exchanges between China and foreign countries. Since the Chinese team was invited to participate in the competition, they are allowed to bring back gifts. It's just a piece of clothing. Apart from making it look better and more fashionable, there is nothing wrong with it. So Lin Lan didn't worry about anything.

She put it on and said, "Thank you, Xiaosan brother. I like it very much." But she couldn't wear it because it would get hot in two days.

The children all said that she looked good in the dress. Mai Sui said: "You have fair skin, and it makes you look elegant in it. When I have the material, I will make you something better."

Lin Lan thanked the children and turned to look at Han Qingsong, "Third brother, does it look good?"

Han Qingsong looked at her intently and nodded.

It was getting late, and the children all put on their schoolbags and started to run. Xiaowang and Sanwang ran in the front, while Maisui, Erwang and Dawang followed behind, chatting.

After the children left, Lin Lan called Han Qingsong: "Third brother, go to work."

Han Qingsong took her hand, brought her into his arms, and looked down at her.

Lin Lan looked at him with deep and burning eyes, and was a little nervous, "Third brother, it's time to go to work."

He lowered his head and rubbed his nose against her cheek, and said in a low voice, "It looks good... I want to take it off."

Lin Lanteng's cheeks turned red, "Third brother, you are a hooligan!"

"We have a license, it's legal." He held her in his arms and bent down to kiss her.

When Lin Lan took his arm and went to the Revolutionary Committee, they immediately attracted a lot of envious looks. After all, the man was tall and handsome, and the woman was delicate and charming, which was pleasing to the eyes.

Gao Weidong greeted them and said with a smile, "I have decided to let Director Li have his own office. Let's work together."

There are Han Qingsong and Lin Lan, especially Lin Lan who is dressed up beautifully. She is pleasing to the eyes and can help her live a few more years.

When Lin Lan said goodbye to them and went back to her office, she immediately caused a lot of exclamations, and they all asked her where she bought it. Whether it was the material or the style of this windbreaker, it was not something that could be bought at the supply and marketing cooperative. Maybe she bought it in a big city, the capital? These people have lived in the county or the district all their lives, and some of them have never been to the province, let alone the capital.

Lin Lan smiled and said, "My third son brought it back from the capital."

"Mr. Lin is so lucky to have five wonderful children. If you could give me one, I would be very grateful."

"Then you must first have a man as good as Han Ju."

Lin Lan just smiled and let them joke with her.

Jiang Chunxia came to find Lin Lan, and after hearing them talking and laughing, she joined in, "Starting tomorrow morning, send all your sons and daughters to the family compound to train with Han Wangguo, and you'll see why his children are so good."

"Oh, ours is not good enough. He can't even get up! Even when we call him after the meal is ready, he still won't get up."

"That's right, the child is really disobedient. Why are other children so obedient?"

Jiang Chunxia went to discuss the issue of the book with Lin Lan.

Lin Lan knew what she meant, and took the initiative to say, "Of course it was the Earthquake Office of our County Revolutionary Committee that published the book. I am the editor, and Director Jiang is the consultant and special editor." Lin Lan habitually did not refer to the authors of such non-original books, after all, they were the wisdom of the masses.

Jiang Chunxia was also very happy to see Lin Lan actively pulling her in. She had read Lin Lan's draft of the book and liked it very much. Lin Lan did not give boring knowledge, but made up various stories to tell the causes, development, changes and terrible disasters of earthquakes with vivid stories, and there were also pictures drawn by children.

Jiang Chunxia likes it very much.

After chatting for a while, Lin Lan said she wanted to go to the Public Security Bureau to see that they were changing offices.

Gao Weidong moved to the director's office, leaving Han Qingsong and Deputy Director Li's offices empty. Gao Weidong wanted to share an office with Han Qingsong, but Han Qingsong declined.

Deputy Director Li looked at the position where Gao Weidong had come from and said to Han Qingsong, "Director Han, you have worked in vain." Although the district committee gave him a reward for his hard work in maintaining public security and cracking down on criminal gangs, what good did it do?

Han Qingsong looked at him, "Is he talking about you?"

"Are you really not angry?" Deputy Director Li put his hands on the desk and stared into Han Qingsong's eyes across from him.

Han Qingsong's eyebrows were cold, "What are you angry about?"

"You're just pretending." Deputy Director Li believed that Han Qingsong was pretending, and he probably hated him so much.

Han Qingsong didn't care either.

At this time, Lin Lan came over and said, "Director Han, I have written a promotional draft for your Public Security Bureau. Take a look at it. We can print it and distribute it to the streets and communities."

Han Qingsong cracked down on those criminal gangs, and Lin Lan thought that they could not just crack down on them, but also follow up with ideological work to let the people understand.

Han Qingsong saw her coming in with the greenness of spring, and he was pleasing to the eye. He thought he should make her wear a red scarf, which would make her look better.

Deputy Director Li glanced at Lin Lan and wanted to say something flirtatious, but when he saw the pretty and graceful woman, he didn't feel like saying it.

Lin Lan smiled and greeted Deputy Director Li, then showed the manuscript to Han Qingsong.

Han Qingsong pulled the chair next to him over for her to sit on, and they watched together.

Deputy Director Li felt particularly unhappy and left angrily.

Han Qingsong: "Very good, I will ask someone to print it now."

Lin Lan smiled and asked, "Have you applied for funding from the Public Security Bureau?"

The equipment of the Public Security Bureau is too poor, the space is too small, and there are not enough professional personnel. The last arrest operation exposed many problems. Han Qingsong personally wrote a report, one for the county revolutionary committee and one for the district committee, hoping to allocate funds to expand the Public Security Bureau. Improve equipment, select outstanding public security personnel including female police officers, and strengthen professional training. As for the psychological counseling that I had thought of before, the conditions are not met at present. Because psychology studies consciousness, this conflicts with many political movements in New China, and it is a typical example of being defeated time and time again. However, they can consciously train the public security officers to study the psychology of criminals and how to improve the efficiency of interrogation, etc.

As long as there is this awareness, the wisdom and experience of the masses will play a role. Han Qingsong will encourage and guide them, and the public security officers below will pay attention.

Han Qingsong shook his head: "Still arguing."

Asking for money is the most troublesome thing.

Lin Lan smiled and said, "Take it slow. We can train the personnel first."

After Wang Guoan's incident last year, all public security training tasks of the entire county public security bureau were handed over to Han Qingsong. Now everyone is more afraid of Han Qingsong than their father. Deputy Director Li disagreed at first, but the old director made the final decision and the Revolutionary Committee agreed. All public security and even the armed police of the Revolutionary Committee were handed over to Han Qingsong for training.

After three months of special training by Han Qingsong after the Chinese New Year, they have taken on a new look. Now they can maintain their normal state without him leading the training and are no longer as lazy as before.

Han Qingsong personally formulated the training program, including arrest techniques, gun use, hand-to-hand combat, and some minor skills. No one can be vague about it. As long as you wear this uniform, you must meet his requirements. Therefore, each of them really worked hard.

At this time Gao Weidong came over and said, "Officer Lin is getting younger and more beautiful as he grows older."

Lin Lan smiled and said, "Thank you Director Gao for the compliment. It's our Revolutionary Committee that supports us."

After Lin Lan left, Gao Weidong leaned on Han Qingsong's desk and said with a click of the tongue, "No wonder Director Han is so happy every day."

Having a daughter-in-law like this makes me happy even if I am unhappy.

Han Qingsong looked at him and asked, "Director, should we attend the training?"

Gao Weidong: “…No, no.” If you let me go, I won’t be stupid enough to catch the criminals by myself like you.

Han Qingsong: "We can protect ourselves even in special situations."

Gao Weidong: "Haha, don't worry, I don't think many bad guys know my name, and they won't come to assassinate me." If they want to assassinate you, they will go after you. He discussed the issue of the Public Security Bureau's funding with Han Qingsong, and he helped to urge them to pay, and it was almost done.

After lunch, Lin Lan was called by the dance troupe. They were rehearsing a show, and Xiao Wang and San Wang were also invited to participate. Director Lu wanted Lin Lan to help look at the manuscript and revise it. She always felt something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what the problem was. San Wang and Xiao Wang said that their mother did this.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Lin Lan went to read the script with Director Lu and screenwriter Tong.

The script they wrote was very simple, nothing more than the model opera style, glorious and upright, but in Lin Lan's opinion, the lines were too awkward. The actors were also out of character when performing, and they could never find the feeling. Lin Lan helped to slightly modify it, so that the accents of individual actors would remain normal, just like ordinary people.

After some changes, it is indeed much more normal, and the actors' lines are more emotional.

"Manager Lin, why don't you come to our song and dance troupe?" Director Lu wanted to recruit Lin Lan again.

Lin Lan smiled and said, "Captain Lu, I will help you if you need me."

At this time, someone from the Public Security Bureau came to call Lin Lan: "Officer Lin, Director Han is looking for--"

Lin Lan: “…” Why are you speaking so loudly?

Lin Lan said a few words to the two children and hurried back. The messenger smiled and said, "Director Han will miss you when he can't see Officer Lin."

Lin Lan: "There must be something wrong."

Sure enough, Han Qingsong asked her to answer the phone. "A foreigner."

foreigner?

Lin Lan picked it up and greeted him. Immediately, an excited voice came from the other side, with English mixed with strange Chinese?

King Za, King Za...

Lin Lan: ...What is this?

Suddenly, an idea flashed in her mind, "Henry?"

The code is correct.

Lin Lan asked him to slow down and express himself simply, and she generally understood.

Henry is coming to China!

Now he was at the Capital Gymnasium. He had originally intended to look for Sanwang, but Sanwang had gone home. He asked someone to look up the phone number here, and excitedly called to transfer the call.

Lin Lan: ...Are you out of your mind? You let our compatriots call us, but you still need the Korean Bureau to call me?

Henry said he would come to visit Wangwang's home in China and hoped it wouldn't be too intrusive.

Of course Lin Lan expressed a warm welcome, gave him the address, arranged a time, and went to the station to pick him up.

When everyone went home in the evening, Lin Lan told Sanwang: "Your good friend Henry is coming to visit us. Mom agreed for you."

Sanwang asked in surprise, "Really? Really? Is he really coming?"

Lin Lan nodded: "He really wants to come. He will arrive the day after tomorrow. Let's go to the train station to pick him up."

The children were very curious when they heard that a foreigner with blond hair and blue eyes was coming to visit their home.

Mai Sui, Er Wang and Xiao Wang were especially eager to see Henry right away.

Finally, the time for Henry to arrive arrived. They had to travel from the capital to the provincial capital and then transfer to the train, so they would have to arrive at the county town at night. They had dinner early, and around 5:30, Lin Lan led the five children to the train station to wait. The children also made a sign welcoming Henry and held it up, hoping to give him a warm welcome ceremony.

As a result, I waited for a long time but he didn't come.

Lin Lan: "You're talking about today."

Sanwang: "Could he have missed his stop? They are so confused."

Everyone: "..." How can you be as confused as you?

At this time, a military green jeep stopped at the gate of Han's family compound, and a tall and handsome foreign man got out of the car. He had blond hair and white skin, and was wearing very formal clothes, including a top hat, suit, vest, tie, trousers, shiny leather shoes, and a walking stick in his hand.

Two more soldiers brought down his two suitcases, one containing photographic equipment, one containing his personal belongings, and a travel bag.

The two warriors waved at him.

Henry also waved his hand, indicating that they could go back, "Sheshe, bye bye!"

Henry went up and knocked on the door.

Soon someone came to answer the door, a tall man wearing a hand-knitted sweater. When he saw him, the man frowned, ignored him, and looked behind him instead.

Henry smiled and waved his hands, saying in Chinese: "Han Xianseng, mud monkey!"

Han Qingsong: "..." He stretched out his hand to shake hands with Henry, "Welcome, Mr. Henry."

Henry opened his arms for a hug.

Han Qingsong put his left arm across his chest to block Henry's passionate embrace, "Please come in." He helped Henry carry the suitcase.

Henry carried one himself and followed Han Qingsong into the courtyard.

Although the courtyard is not very big, it is very warm and green, with a well, trees and flowers, full of the unique pastoral mood of the Chinese.

"Sa Wang Sa Wang!" Henry thought he would see Sanwang rushing out of the house excitedly and hug him, so he shouted at the top of his voice.

Han Qingsong: “…” If all American soldiers were like this, war would be much easier.

Han Qingsong invited him into the house and told him that Sanwang would pick him up at the station, but they were talking at cross purposes and the two could only stare at each other.

Han Qingsong poured him a teacup of water and asked him to drink it.

Henry immediately took out a can of coffee and gave it to Han Qingsong.

Han Qingsong's first reaction was what kind of poison this was! He quietly stood aside and took it back to the bureau to study it.

After a while, Lin Lan came back with the children.

"Maybe he hasn't arrived yet. Let's go to the bureau and call and ask."

Henry stood up and ran out, "King Sa!"

Lin Lan and the others were stunned. What was going on? They were welcoming guests, but the guests were already at home and came out to greet them.

This……

Sanwang had already flown over and hung on Henry, "Henry, Henry, welcome!"

Henry held him and spun him around twice, then put him down and went over to greet Lin Lan and the children.

Lin Lan wanted to shake hands with him, but was caught off guard and hugged by Henry. He was very strong and smelled of cologne.

Han Qingsong followed him out: ………!!! I want to throw him out.

"China Wangwang Mama." Henry said happily in English.

Da Wang pulled his arm and pulled him away in one go, then glared at San Wang with dissatisfaction.

Sanwang smiled and said, "That's what they do. It's a greeting to express their happiness."

Henry hugged the others again, picked up Xiaowang and carried him around twice. When it was their turn to hug Maisui, Erwang rushed to shake hands with Henry first, then stopped him from hugging Maisui.

Henry was a little confused, but he didn't force it. He shook Mai Sui's hand a few more times, and then wanted to hug Da Wang.

Da Wang decisively reached out and held Henry's hand, then let go after squeezing it.

Henry had not yet finished expressing his enthusiasm, for he turned around and hugged Sanwang again, and the two of them jumped up and down like monkeys.

Lin Lan: “…”

If you were wearing jeans and jumping around, it would be fine, but why are you dressed so formally?

Henry and Sanwang were similar. They chattered a lot, and soon the room was like home to eight hundred ducks.

Henry gave the gifts he brought to Lin Lan and others, including coffee, chocolate, cigars, perfume, stockings, postcards, movie tapes, music tapes, sexy albums, books...

They are all small items that don’t take up much space, so you can bring a lot in one box.

Unfortunately, they don't have anything at home to play tapes or videotapes.

Mai Sui took out the stockings and said with a smile, "We can give this to Sister Fan." She and Fan Xiao now kept in close correspondence and would share their lives with each other. She had heard Fan Xiao talk about this.

Sanwang: "This is for men to wear! Didn't you see Napoleon or someone wearing it in the book? And there were high heels too." He brought back a European history book with beautiful pictures for Mai Sui and Erwang.

Han Qingsong walked over and picked up Lin Lan in his arms, and the two went out for a walk, leaving the children and Henry chattering in the yard. It felt like they could talk all night.

When they returned home after a long stroll around 7:30, Henry had already taken off his formal suit, changed into his jeans and shirt, and started eating fried noodles.

Erwang and Maisui made hand-rolled noodles for him.

Lin Lan just watched Henry, who was clumsily picking up noodles with chopsticks in one hand and holding a clove of garlic in the other, eating in a very down-to-earth manner.

When Sanwang was at the Capital Gymnasium, in addition to training, he also had to take cultural classes. English was a required subject, especially speaking and listening. Now he is the main force in communication with Henry.

Although Mai Sui and Er Wang speak good English, they have not received any special training in speaking and listening, so it is a bit difficult for them to communicate with Henry. Fortunately, they are used to it, not shy or inferior, and Henry is also patient, so they slowly learn and communicate with Henry, and can have simple conversations.

Henry gave them a thumbs up.

Looking at their enthusiastic faces, Lin Lan knew what new appliances the family should buy. For now, let's not talk about TVs or anything like that. What would be great is buying a new tape recorder with a radio function so that the children can play tapes to learn English.

After dinner, the children took Henry for a walk outside to prevent him from getting food stuck in his stomach. Sanwang and Xiaowang also called Gao Ling and Gao Yu to come and see Henry.

At most they said hello, and then they couldn't utter a word. Sorry, they couldn't speak because their English was too poor.

Henry didn't mind. He even communicated with them in broken Chinese and learned some Chinese from them.

Half an hour later, they went home.

Lin Lan had already taken out a new quilt and was a little worried about how they would sleep. Henry was a little taller than Han Qingsong, and the kang was not long enough for Da Wang to sleep on now, but it would probably be too narrow after the New Year.

Xiao Wang smiled and said, "Mom, why don't you sleep on the same bed with us and let my dad and Uncle Henry sleep with us."

Han Qingsong glanced at him when he heard that, and Xiaowang immediately stared at Han Qingsong with his clear big eyes and blinked innocently.

Sanwang had a solution. He piled up a few suitcases on the edge of the kang. "Just put your heads toward the wall and put your feet on it."

Henry said that it was okay for him to work as a clerk, as they often lived outdoors when they went out for interviews and photography.

Mai Sui is very curious about Henry's work. Because she has not caught up with the language, she is a little anxious and needs to write down the words in a notebook. Er Wang is responsible for helping her look up the dictionary.

Henry was both enthusiastic and patient. He was very keen on this kind of communication despite the language barrier. Mai Sui and Er Wang talked to him while looking up the dictionary, while he spoke English and rambling Chinese that was far off the topic, leaving everyone confused. When San Wang corrected him, he laughed out loud again.

"Mom, Henry is coming. Do Teacher Xiaowang and I have to accompany him?" Sanwang quietly asked Lin Lan so that he wouldn't have to go to school.

Lin Lan smiled and said, "I'll satisfy you. You have learned more from Mr. Henry now than in school. You can take turns to take leave and accompany Mr. Henry around." When Henry comes, he must want to go to the countryside to have a look, so Da Wang and Er Wang can accompany him.

Henry is a journalist and a graduate of a prestigious American university, so the children can naturally learn a lot from him.

English, journalism, American and European history, etc. can all be influenced.

The children were pleasantly surprised to see Lin Lan being so magnanimous. Only Da Wang was not so enthusiastic, but he did not refuse either.

The next morning, Han Qingsong and Da Wang were still unaffected and continued their training as usual.

Because there were outsiders at home, Lin Lan also got up early, and Erwang and Henry followed him to the fields.

When he saw Lin Lan in the main room, he opened his arms and was about to hug her.

Sanwang: "Henry, Henry!" He told Henry not to hug other women casually in China, because they were other men's wives and daughters, and he would be beaten if he did so. Anyway, Sanwang saw his father's face was black yesterday.

If he hugged him again today, his father might not beat Henry, but he would definitely beat him for not explaining it clearly to Henry.

Henry was a little confused after hearing this, but he still nodded and said in broken Chinese: "Xiao de Xiao de."

He was about to ask how to wash up when he saw Han Qingsong and Da Wang, father and son, coming back from outside, so he immediately greeted them.

The two men, who were originally rather indifferent and taciturn, were not used to saying good morning in such an exaggerated way, so they just nodded in greeting.

Henry didn't care, as long as he was happy.

Han Qingsong helped Lin Lan cook, Da Wang took his younger brother and sister to do morning exercises, Henry followed suit, and the Gao brothers and others who were willing to exercise also joined in. On the way, they also met the public security team led by Liu Jianyun and Luo Haicheng, and the two teams often exchanged ideas.

They were particularly curious about Henry, but were too shy to show it, so they all looked at him furtively.

Henry's expressions and language are always so exaggerated. He is obviously a handsome guy, but when he shrugs his shoulders, folds his hands, stares with his eyes and opens his mouth wide, it really makes people suspect that he is a monkey.

When they got home, Lin Lan and Han Qingsong had already prepared dinner. She was afraid that Henry might not be used to the food, so she fried eggs for him.

Henry saw that he had fried eggs, but he refused to eat them and gave them to the hostess.

"When in Rome, do as the Romans do." He said with a smile.

Lin Lan helped him correct the idiom, and then everyone started to eat.

Lin Lan: "Children, do you want to take a family photo today?"

Since Sanwang left home, they basically take family photos twice a year, once during the Chinese New Year and once in between.

Sanwang said something to Henry, who immediately raised his hand and said, "I'll do it, I'll do it!"

He rushed into the house, took out his camera, and gestured to everyone, "Cheers!"

Only Lin Lan and a few children cooperated with him. Han Qingsong and Da Wang only took a look, and then a click sounded, and a family photo was left on the film. Henry came to the scene, adjusted the tripod, and then pressed the delay. He quickly ran over and hugged Xiao Wang in his arms, shouting "Yeah——"

"Click" and he and his family were captured in the photo.

Han Qingsong's eyebrows jumped when he shouted "Yeah", which made Lin Lan laugh softly and pat his arm.

After dinner, Han Qingsong went to work. He said that he did not allow people to take photos of him during work hours - leaking public security secrets was not allowed!

Henry expressed his understanding. On the first day, he was accompanied by Sanwang and Xiaowang to visit the song and dance troupe and the Revolutionary Committee. Henry came with the expert group this time, which was considered a backdoor to join the fun. The US earthquake expert group came to investigate the successful earthquake prediction in Haicheng, China, and he followed them to conduct field interviews in China and visit Wangwang's hometown in China. He had a temporary work permit, subsidies, food coupons, etc., so the local Revolutionary Committee naturally would not make things difficult for him.

Lin Lan took out the sapphire they processed themselves and showed it to him, "Henry, you can pick a friendship stone and give it to you."

Henry said happily, "Really? Really? I'll pay for it."

Lin Lan: "No need to pay, we have a mine."

Henry immediately showed an exaggerated expression, "A mine? Mom, you are so rich, you can sell it to the Europeans, they like sapphires."

Lin Lan thought to herself, I'm just waiting for you to help me. She said there were difficulties, policies, and processes, etc.

Henry enthusiastically suggested asking around, saying that the gem processing technology in Europe is very advanced now, so there must be some better machines. If they are reluctant to part with it, they can exchange it for gems.

"Thank you, Mr. Henry. You came just in time. You are the timely rain for our family." Lin Lan praised him.

Henry was very happy to be called Shiyu. He gestured and said in a mixture of Chinese and English, "It is my honor to serve a beautiful lady. I really like King Sarah, your children, and you. If you hadn't gotten married, I would definitely take you back to America."

Han Qingsong, who happened to come in, heard his exaggerated gestures and miraculously understood that he wanted to take his wife to the United States! His face immediately sank.

"Third brother, Mr. Henry praised you for being handsome and said he would invite us to the United States in the future." Lin Lan said with a smile.
