"Mom, I made it to the finals." The child said in a muffled voice.
Lin Lu smiled brightly: "That's a good thing, why aren't you happy?"
Lin Jingbei lowered his eyelids: "I have to go abroad to compete, and I don't want to go so far, it's so annoying."
This is the biggest worry for the child now.
Song Chen: Son, was there no one around when you said this? I was worried that you would be beaten.
"This is a great opportunity to win glory for our country. You should seize it. When you come back, I'll buy you whatever you want."
Lin Jingbei thought about the next few days of rest and asked, "Do you want to come over or should I go home?"
Then I remembered: "I better go home and get a passport."
"Will it be in time?" Lin Lu worried.
Normally, it would take several months to get a passport, but they were special cases, so the teacher gave them instructions, which they showed to the staff and expedited the processing.
After listening to his son's explanation, Song Chen said: "Okay, buy a plane ticket and fly back. I'll reimburse you."
Lin Jingbei: "Do you want any gifts? I'm going out with my classmates this afternoon to play and buy some things. I'll be back tomorrow morning."
Song Chen said cheesily: "No need, you are our gift."
Lin Jingbei: Is the man opposite really his father?
It must be possessed by some evil thing.
Weird, really weird, so corny.
Lin Lu smiled and said, "Yes, Abei, just buy something you like."
Lin Jingbei pursed his lips, but the tips of his ears turned red: "Then I'll figure it out myself."
He had to bring a gift, and since his parents didn't say what they wanted, he would choose it himself.
After hanging up the phone, the two told Li Xianglian about this.
Good guy, Li Xianglian immediately decided not to set up the stall today.
She was going to buy some good food and come back to make something delicious for her eldest grandson.
The last time I came back, he looked thinner. It must be because he didn't eat well over there.
I asked again and again: "Really? Then we don't have to go there?"
In fact, she had a little idea. She wanted to go to Kyoto to watch the flag-raising ceremony and to Tiananmen Square to take a photo with the Chairman’s statue.
When she returns to her hometown and displays the photos, I'm sure her old sisters will envy her.
Although she is already envious enough, she doesn't mind adding fuel to the fire.
Watching the national flag-raising ceremony and looking at the Chairman’s portrait are probably the most face-saving things for their generation.
When Lin Jingbei went to Kyoto as a child, he missed the flag-raising ceremony, but he took a photo with the Chairman. This matter had already spread to the next town.
There were so many people who wanted to see his photo that in the end, no one knew who took it away. Li Xianglan was so angry that she cursed at him for two days at the door.
Lin Lu: "Well, he made the selection team. He has a few days off this time. Once he gets his passport, he'll go abroad to compete in Japan."
Li Xianglian's head was buzzing: "Ah, going to the Jap's house? Why do we have to compete there? Will it be dangerous? What if we get bullied? The Jap are the worst. Can we ask the teacher to change places?"
Li Xianglian experienced that period of history as a child. She knew that the Japanese devils entered the village, burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of atrocities.
But she was too young at that time. When she regained her memory, although the village had improved a lot, everyone still gritted their teeth when talking about the Japanese devils.
Song Chen soothed him, "He's representing our country in the competition, and someone will protect their safety. Let them go and defeat the Japanese once again in front of the whole world, and beat the crap out of him."
Lin Changchun suddenly stood up and clenched his fists. "Yes, let Xiaobei go and beat the crap out of those little Japs. I'll let everyone know where to watch their match."
This is the moment when the old Lin family will be honored!
Lin Lu: "It may not be on TV, but you should be able to find it on your computer."
Lin Changchun couldn't help but feel disappointed that such an exciting match wasn't being shown on TV.
Lin Lu: "Dad, you can watch it on my computer, we can watch it together."
…
The old couple went out to buy groceries together. Lin Lu planned to go to the supermarket with Song Chen in the afternoon to buy some things.
"By the way, since we're not going there, you can have Xunyou come directly. You should quickly finish your business plan in the next few days, otherwise when people come, you won't have anything prepared and just rely on your mouth to brag about it, and people will misunderstand you as a pyramid schemer."
Song Chen: "I understand. I will write it as soon as possible, but I am currently in need of someone who understands cars and will train everyone together."
Lin Lu: "Ask Xiao Xu if he can recommend someone for you. Or if you have someone in mind who's bright and capable, have him go to the factory and learn for a few months. Then he can come back for training after he's learned enough."
An image popped up in Song Chen's mind, and he thought the young man was pretty good. "Do you know a guy named Chen Xingchen? That kid was looking for a job and he ran to the brick factory to stop me. He worked for a while and his performance was good. But I always feel like I've heard that name somewhere before, but I just can't remember it."
Chen Xingchen?
Lin Lu recalled carefully, her eyes flickering. "This was the boy Xixi had a crush on before. I heard that she had a crush on him for a long time because he helped her. In the end, she found out that he already had someone he liked, and she had been working part-time to earn money to support him in school."
So that's how it is.
Song Chen: "No wonder, he is indeed a good child. That girl has finally had a good eye."
Lin Lu: "Everyone likes good-looking people."
If that person wasn't good-looking, Song Xixi wouldn't have had a crush on him for so long.
Song Chen: "Oh, why don't you have a crush on me? Am I not good-looking? When I was wearing a military uniform, the aunts in the village all praised me for being handsome. Do you remember our wedding day? It's a pity that I didn't take a handsome photo when I was young."
What he regrets most now is that Lin Lu didn't like him back then?
His face is unmatched in their town, let alone the whole county.
But! His wife actually chose to ignore him!
This mother and son are alike. They are like blind men looking at other people's flirtatious glances.
While others are in chaos, they are still studying hard and trying to get the first place in the exams.
However, Song Chen was also glad that Lin Luchun fell in love late, otherwise what would have happened if she had been seduced by other men during the years when he was not with her? After all, his wife was so beautiful.
Lin Lu also laughed and said, "Even if the emperor came, he couldn't stop my determination to go to college."
She knew from a young age that only studying could change her destiny, and only by passing the exams could she earn money and support her family.
When I was little, I heard people say that girls are ultimately inferior to boys. Even if their family used the favor of saving their lives to blackmail Song Chen into becoming their son-in-law, what would it matter? Wouldn't they still not be able to provide for them in their old age?
It would be better to adopt a baby boy and raise him while you still have the strength.
Those harsh words chased her forward like a mad dog, running forward without stopping.
At that time, she even had a naive thought that when she made a lot of money in the future, she would build a big house in her hometown, eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks at home every day, and make those people die of their sweetness.
However, things are unpredictable. When I grew up, I actually helped them get rich. When I returned to the village, everyone praised me like they were free, as if I had never said those hurtful words.
