"What?"
Sure enough, straight men don't think about these complicated things; look at his shocked expression.
"No, sister-in-law, what do you mean? How did this get involved with me? I don't even know that person!"
That man wasn't calm. They hadn't even interrogated him yet; they were still holding him there, planning to let him cool off before further questioning. So, at this moment, he genuinely knew nothing.
Where did these words come from?
I mean, if there's someone suitable, I might take a look, but they have to be roughly the same age. I'm not so desperate as to go and prey on young educated youths who are only a few years old, am I? Isn't that ridiculous? This is utter nonsense!"
Mingzhu's lips twitched. She glanced at Jian Dan, who had hit the nail on the head. Listen to that, ho ho, "desperate for food," what a choice of words!
"It's all just gossip from these family members here. But you know, there's no smoke without fire when it comes to these things. These words must have been said by someone for them to spread, right?"
It was practically a matter of saying, "If it wasn't you who said it, then it was someone else who said it." Commander Lin naturally understood, and his good mood from before was instantly ruined. He had originally planned to take his son to see the autumn harvest, but what was there to see now? He turned around angrily and prepared to go back to work.
What are we waiting for? If we wait any longer, we'll lose even our innocence.
He wanted to leave, but Xiao An, seeing her friends, naturally didn't want to go. Seeing that Jian Dan didn't seem reluctant, he simply put the child down.
"Sister-in-law, thank you for your trouble. I'll go and interrogate her right away."
"Damn it, they dare to drag me into this? They've got some nerve! If I had that kind of intention, would I be beating around the bush?"
Even after everyone had left, you could still hear them grumbling angrily; it was clear they were furious.
"Hey, tell me, what's all this about?"
"You want to live a good life, but you're using the wrong method,"
"She doesn't understand people. She probably thinks that any man would be happy to accept a wife who comes to his door like this."
"Huh? But there should be a reason. Our Commander Lin is a straight man. If she were to say it directly, regardless of whether it works out or not, she might have a better impression of him."
Mingzhu was speechless.
"...You really dare to think like that. Didn't people say that they couldn't bring themselves to do it to such a young educated youth?"
Yes, those were indeed the words of Commander Lin, but he probably never dreamed that his words would be remembered, and that he would be proven wrong so quickly.
The autumn harvest was still in its final stages when Jian Dan heard this news that surprised her, but upon reflection, it didn't seem so unexpected.
"No, what kind of development direction is this?"
"So, does saving a life mean I have to repay it with my body?"
Qin Qinghuai was also very serious.
"How can that not count? The son saved his life, and the father is willing to repay him with his body. It's perfectly reasonable no matter how you look at it."
"Tsk tsk tsk! How did you convince yourself with such twisted logic?"
However, come to think of it, it seems to be true. Two major problems have been solved, and Xiao An doesn't dislike her, so there probably won't be any major issues in their future interactions.”
Qin Qinghuai smiled. Sure enough, the person his wife had mentioned a few days ago must be him.
You think so too, right?
This Teacher Jiang is a hero who sacrificed herself to save others. The school has commended her, and the Youth League is also arranging ideological and political education sessions for her. Not only the Youth League, but her family will also be given opportunities to learn from her after the autumn harvest.
"Wow! Could this be considered a blessing in disguise?"
It's a pity that she won't be able to have children in the future.
"Well, how should I put it? It depends on the individual's opinion!"
What is honey to one is poison to another.
For Teacher Jiang, this might not be a bad thing. From now on, Xiao An will be their only child. As long as Xiao An is well, Commander Lin will certainly have respect and trust for her, regardless of whether he has romantic feelings for her.
"Honey, what you should be worried about is that some people might say sarcastic things. You're going to have a lot of work to do as the deputy director of the family committee."
With a sudden jolt, he immediately stood still.
"Emma, you're right. No, I have to keep an eye on them and find a way to quiet them down."
"You wouldn't believe it, in the days immediately following the incident, rumors were flying everywhere. Some people even asked if Commander Lin was getting married to Sun Jianhong. Now that things have turned out this way, there's bound to be a lot of gossip, but thankfully Jiang Ping is in the hospital, so we can have a few days of peace and quiet."
Qin Qinghuai's expression shifted subtly for a moment, then he dropped another bombshell.
"Well, she's already been discharged from the hospital, and the two of them have already gotten their marriage certificate."
"......"
It's amazing, I don't know what to say, they just went straight to the top?
"No, shouldn't we discuss this matter and work things out a bit? They didn't know each other before, so this is a bit rushed, isn't it?"
There's plenty of time after the autumn harvest, is there any need to rush?
"Is it good to get a wife for the New Year?"
"Ha, that might be a real idea. But, like you said, with rumors flying everywhere, they probably don't want this kind of thing to continue spreading."
Teacher Jiang was hospitalized for Xiao An's sake, and both out of consideration for her and Xiao An's situation, the group leader has been visiting her quite frequently lately, which has led to the rumors going awry.
They're both adults, they both have mouths, so naturally they'll do what's appropriate. They just met, and they came together because of some reason, so it's unrealistic to expect them to have a deep relationship so quickly. However, they're both looking to build a life together, so once they've started, it's a natural progression.
"Why!"
