Chapter 428 Father, Father (2)

Why did Qin Shu's grandfather come?

Are you here to see Qin Shu?

It's still related to Liang Guangming...

Jiang Rou's heart was filled with all kinds of suspicions, and she even felt a little uneasy.

However, Lin Yulan beside her seemed to be fine and just watched everything quietly.

Jiang Rou heard a leisurely voice nearby.

Lin Yulan said softly, "He seems to be in good health..."

It was a sigh, but also a relief.

Lin Yulan clearly remembers what Grandpa Qin looked like back then: a valiant and high-spirited hero.

It was because of his overly loyal and reckless style that he suffered losses and led to so many things that happened later.

Over the years, Lin Yulan has been worried about Qin Shu and also about this upright and outspoken old man.

After reuniting with Qin Shu, Lin Yulan talked to Qin Shu about the recent situation of Grandpa Qin.

Qin Shu said, "My grandpa is doing very well now. He can eat and drink, and he even competes with young soldiers in shooting. But he had an accident a few years ago and injured his leg. Every winter, the injured leg hurts a lot. That's why I studied medicine. In recent years, my grandpa has lived in the south, where the climate is warm, and his leg pain has improved a lot."

The accident in earlier years sounded light and easy to Qin Shu.

She never mentioned any of the hard work and suffering.

Because Qin Shu knew that Lin Yulan was worried, he was afraid that she would worry, be anxious, and also afraid that she would blame herself for no reason.

She just wants Sister Yulan to be well forever.

But even if Qin Shu didn't say it, one could imagine what the situation was like at that time.

Since everyone wants her to be at peace, she should just pretend that she knows nothing and be at peace.

The past cannot be retrieved.

The future can be changed.

Ever since that day in the ward when she told Jiang Rou about her decision to divorce, Lin Yulan's heart has never been so firm.

She wants to be the master of her own life.

So now when she saw Grandpa Qin again, she felt relieved and nothing else.

Lin Yulan withdrew her gaze and then noticed Jiang Rou's eyes on her.

Have excessive worries.

She smiled at Jiang Rou.

"Why are you looking at me? The supply and marketing cooperative is about to open, why don't you go and queue up?"

Jiang Rou really wanted to ask, how is Lin Yulan?

But her words were blocked by Lin Yulan's faint smile.

She looks just like Lin Yulan of the past.

No, not at all.

In the past, Lin Yulan always seemed depressed and worried with a frown on her face.

But the current Lin Yulan is better than the previous Lin Yulan.

She untied the long-standing knot in her heart, put down the heavy burden, and lived a more relaxed life.

With Lin Yulan like this, what is there to worry about?

Jiang Rou put her worries aside.

She smiled as well, nodded and said, "Let's go! Let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy something."

As soon as the word "supply and marketing cooperative" was mentioned, the sisters-in-law around finally came to their senses.

They were so busy watching the excitement that they even forgot about buying things from the supply and marketing cooperative.

"Oh! Buy something! Buy something! My fabric! I promised to make clothes for my man!"

"What good stuff do you have today? Hurry up! They will be sold out if you are late."

"I must buy brown sugar! Don't try to snatch it from me. There's only a little bit of brown sugar each time, so it's never my turn."

The sisters-in-law hurried forward, chatting one after another, forgetting what had happened at the dock.

When they were halfway there, everyone suddenly turned back.

Silent, but very tacit.

They all looked at Lin Yulan's round belly.

Zhao Guifen was the first to speak.

"Yulan, come here quickly. The first spot is reserved for you! You will be giving birth in a few months, right? Buy the baby's food and daily necessities as soon as possible. When the weather gets cold, your hands will freeze while sewing clothes."

Lin Yulan was surprised, "Let me be the first in line?"

Zhao Guifen and the people around him nodded in unison.

"We have no objection to you being first in line."

If she encountered such a thing in the past, Lin Yulan would definitely refuse, as she has her own rules in her heart.

But this time, she readily agreed.

"Okay, I'll be the first one in line. Thank you everyone, and don't blame me for being slow."

"No, no, how could we dislike you?"

"That's right, you should have been first."

"You wrote a letter for me a few days ago, but I didn't thank you properly. I don't know if you are pregnant with a girl or a boy. Can I make some clothes for the baby?"

…

Lin Yulan was chatting back and forth amidst the crowd.

Jiang Rou looked at this scene and felt that the sea breeze was gentle.

Song Qingqian watched Jiang Rou's expression from the side, narrowed her eyes, and a hint of businessman's shrewdness appeared in her eyes.

She raised her chin and said, "Arou, you are hiding something from me."

Jiang Rou was startled and turned to look at Song Qingqian.

Song Qingqian squinted his eyes, still looking at her, and continued, "Is it related to Sister Yulan?"

Since she had been discovered, Jiang Rou did not dodge.

She nodded. "It's a secret. I can't tell you."

Song Qingqian snorted softly, "What's the secret between you two?"

There was suddenly a sour smell in the sea breeze.

Jiang Rou said softly, "Yes. I won't hide it from you. You will know it after a while."

Song Qingqian turned her head and stopped looking at Jiang Rou.

On this day, when she was queuing, she deliberately stood in front of Jiang Rou.

Jiang Rou looked at Song Qingqian's back and smiled silently.

After all, Lin Yulan was planning to divorce Liang Guangming. She would never dare to tell anyone such a big secret.

…

The pier was lacking in spectators; Liang Guangming, Grandpa Qin, Tan Zhifei and his wife, and others had already left.

But the continuous flow of people still did not disperse.

A middle-aged couple with sallow complexions and plain clothes walked down from the deck.

The transport ship was shaking quite a bit.

When the middle-aged couple got off the boat, they stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

The soldier standing guard nearby was quick to help.

What a coincidence.

The soldier on guard today was Song Yan, just like the first day Jiang Rou arrived on the island.

Song Yan reminded, "Be careful."

"Thank you! Thank you comrade."

The middle-aged couple thanked him repeatedly.

They had gentle faces, spoke in soft voices, and had a somewhat timid look on their faces, as if they were very scared.

After taking a closer look at Song Yan, he saw that this young man in military uniform looked friendly and thought they should get along well, so he dared to say hello.

The middle-aged woman asked.

"Comrade, may I ask... may I ask if there is a regiment commander named Zhou in your army?"

Song Yan nodded, frowned, and examined it carefully.

"Yes, there is a Captain Zhou. Who are you? Do you know Captain Zhou?"

When the middle-aged couple heard this, a slight smile appeared on their dark yellow and thin faces.

The two of them shook their heads hurriedly, then nodded and spoke.

"No...no...I don't know him."

Song Yan was still wary and spoke sharply, "Why are you asking about Captain Zhou when you don't know me? What's your purpose?"

The middle-aged couple became flustered and explained in panic again.

"No, no... Comrade, we are not bad people. We don't know Captain Zhou, but we know Captain Zhou's lover... Is Captain Zhou's lover called Jiang Rou? We... We are Jiang Rou's parents."
