Chapter 86
Scared?
Lin Qingqing wanted to say, would I be scared? However, she didn't know that Lu Cheng was deliberately acting tough, and he was actually just like that on the surface. Lin Qingqing was indeed a little scared. However, today was the first step in his future life, and also the first step in her future life. So, she would not back down.
"Don't be afraid." Lin Qingqing turned around and met Lu Cheng's eyes.
Lu Cheng also looked at her and met her eyes. "Then I..."
Lin Qingqing raised her eyebrows: "What do you mean?"
The lights were not turned off yet, and Lu Cheng could see her provocative look clearly. "I..." He wanted to say...
Lin Qingqing suddenly reached out and hugged his neck: "What do you mean?" It was still those three words, and she smiled.
"I'm not going to let you go." Lu Cheng turned over and kissed her.
The next day
Lu Haici got up very early today. His parents slept together last night. When he was a child, his mother said that if they slept together, they would have little brothers and sisters. So, now there is a little brother or sister in mom's belly, right? Lu Haici was very happy when he thought of this.
Lu Cheng got up and saw that his son had gotten up earlier than him. He couldn't believe it. "Why did you get up so early?"
Lu Haici was washing up. When he heard his father's voice, he turned around quickly. He looked at his father excitedly: "Dad, you are not going to divorce Mom, are you?" They
just had their wedding night yesterday, and today his son asked him about this. Lu Cheng really wanted to teach him a lesson: "Who told you that I want to divorce your mother?" This man is so evil. He has gone too far.
Lu Haici said softly, "No one told me, but I heard from Ji Yang that his mother didn't give birth to a little brother or sister, so his father wanted to divorce his mother. I'm worried that if your mother didn't give birth to a little brother or sister, you would also divorce your mother."
Lu Cheng didn't expect to hear such gossip: "Don't meddle in other people's affairs." He taught Lu Haici, "Your mother and I will never divorce, do you understand?"
When Lu Haici heard this, he was very happy: "Really? That's great."
Seeing his son happy like a little fool, Lu Cheng rubbed his head: "Okay, don't think about this all day long. A real man should spend his mind on business. When I was on a mission, did you study hard?"
"Of course I have." Lu Haici said, "I want to be a college student like my dad."
It is now June 22, and the college entrance examination has been cancelled, but Lu Haici is young and doesn't know about it, so he still vows to be a college student.
Similarly, Lu Cheng didn't know about the cancellation of the college entrance examination because he was on a mission at the time.
So when he heard his son say this, Lu Cheng praised, "You have a promising future."
"The college entrance examination has been cancelled." Lin Qingqing said as she came out of the house.
When Lu Cheng saw her, he thought of what happened last night and blushed. However, he was shocked by what Lin Qingqing said, and he didn't care about what happened last night, and asked hurriedly: "The college entrance examination was cancelled? When did it happen?"
Lin Qingqing said: "It was cancelled on June 18th. I know you care about this matter. I left you the newspaper of that day." Then, Lin Qingqing went back to the room and took out the newspaper she had put away.
Lu Cheng took the newspaper and read the report about the cancellation of the college entrance examination. He felt helpless. He had never asked Lin Qingqing about historical events. He knew that the future of the motherland would be very strong, and that was enough. If he knew history, it might not be good for him, because he might think of ways to modify it because he knew it. However, even though he knew that the future of the motherland would be strong, he was still very sad to hear about the cancellation of the college entrance examination. "How many years will this history last?" It was the first time that he wanted to know about this history.
Lin said lightly, "Ten years, until the second half of 1976."
Ten years, it has just begun, and many people have been implicated. How many more people will be implicated in these ten years? Lu Cheng dared not imagine. But at least he knew that it would end in ten years, so there was still hope. Lu
Cheng came back to his senses: "Why did you get up so early? Don't you want to take a rest?" Thinking of what happened yesterday, he felt a little embarrassed.
Lin said lightly, "I'm hungry, get up and make breakfast." Lu Haici had to go to school in the morning, so he had to make breakfast for him. However, the description in the novel that a woman experienced her first time and couldn't get up the next day was simply too nonsense.
Lu Cheng said, "I'll go back to the army first, you...you have a good rest."
"I'm fine, you go to the army." Lin waved his hand lightly, not reluctant at all.
Looking at her like this, Lu Cheng suddenly felt so wronged, as if he was the one who was used and then discarded. He looked at Lin Qingqing and wanted to say that he would not go to the army.
"Dad, the wakeup call has been ringing for a long time, why don't you go to the army?" Lu Haici looked at Lu Cheng and reminded him.
Lu Cheng glanced at him and said, "Since I'm back, your training will continue from tomorrow." He left with a word and strode away.
Lu Haici: "..." Dad is too much. He was bullied for being ignorant when he was a child, and it was okay to retaliate against him with training. Now he is eight years old and is no longer a kid who is so easy to fool. He asked Qin Ming, Ji Yang and Chen Zhou, but none of them exercised, only him.
Lin Qingqing looked at the angry Lu Haici and said with a smile: "Come and light the fire, we will make fried rice with eggs in the morning." When he was young, he was not allowed to light the fire, worried that he would burn himself. Now that Lu Haici is eight years old, Lin Qingqing can rest assured.
"Come." Lu Haici was very happy that his mother asked him to work, "Mom, I also want to eat fried rice with eggs at noon."
"Then I will make it for you at noon and send it to the commune primary
school." Lin Qingqing said. Lu Haici: "Don't bother so much, I can put the fried rice with eggs in the lunch box in the morning and steam it in the school cafeteria at noon."
Lin Qingqing thought: "That's fine." Although steamed fried rice with eggs is not so delicious, in this era, there is no need to be so particular.
Because there was no leftover rice yesterday, the rice for the egg fried rice was freshly fried. After the rice was cooked, Lin Qingqing made vegetable egg fried rice and soaked a bowl of seaweed soup.
After breakfast, Lu Haici took a full box of egg fried rice to find Ji Yang next door: "Ji Yang... Ji Yang..."
"Coming." Ji Yang ran out with a schoolbag and a rag bag, "Lu Haici, what did you bring for lunch? I brought steamed buns and tea eggs made by my mother."
Lu Haici said, "I brought egg fried rice made by my mother."
"Wow..." Ji Yang said, "Then shall we eat together for lunch?" They often eat together and put the things everyone brought together to eat.
Lu Haici: "Sure, I wonder what Qin Ming and Chen Zhou brought for lunch. By the way, Ji Yang, I will have a little brother and sister soon."
"Ah? Is auntie pregnant?" Ji Yang remembered that his parents had reconciled, and he was happy, "By the way, Ji Yang, my parents have reconciled, and they will never divorce again."
"That's great." Lu Haici was naturally happy for his friend when he heard that his friends parents had reconciled. "Will your mother give birth to little brothers and sisters in the future?"
Ji Yang said: "My father said that he will not give birth to little brothers and sisters in the future, so I don't have any brothers and sisters. Oh...but I really want to have a brother and sister, what should I do? I want to take my brother and sister to play football, I want to take my brother and sister to fight."
Lu Haici: "Then I can let my brother and sister be your
brother and sister." The clever Lu Haici thought that if the brother and sister have an older brother, there will be one more person to love them. Ji Yang said: "We are the best of friends, your brother and sister are my brother and sister, and when auntie gives birth to a brother and sister, we will take him to play together."
"Okay."
"Lu Haici...Ji Yang..."
Qin Ming was waiting for them at the gate of the family compound. When he saw them coming, he shouted: "Hurry up."
"Here they come..."
Ji Yang and Qin Ming ran.
Ji Yang: "Where's Chen Zhou? He hasn't come yet."
Qin Ming: "Chen Zhou is sick and won't go to school today."
Lu Haici: "Why is Chen Zhou always sick? His health is too poor. He needs to exercise every day to stay healthy like me."
Qin Ming: "Hurry up and go to school. I made an appointment with Huang Dabao and others to play football today. I don't want to lose."
Lu Haici: "I'm here."
Ji Yang: "Wait for me."
The three of them chased each other and ran towards the commune primary school.
Family Courtyard
Lin Qingqing finished her meal and went to clean up the room. She changed the sheets and quilt covers. The blood stains on the sheets were obvious, and the quilt covers still had the smell left yesterday. She wet the sheets and quilt covers and soaked them in a wooden basin with soap.
When it was almost eight o'clock, she made fried rice with eggs for Lu Cheng, and then rubbed the sheets that had been soaked for a while. She wanted to rub off the blood stains first.
When Lu Cheng came back, he saw Lin Qingqing rubbing the sheets in the yard. He immediately remembered what happened last night, and he hurriedly said, "I'll wash these after breakfast, you can leave them there."
Lin Qingqing snorted, "Of course you wash them." She never thought about washing them, she just rubbed off the blood stains first. "By the way, remember to buy condoms at the hospital when you rest."
Lu Cheng: "..." His heart tightened, "You...you don't want to have a baby?"
Lin Qingqing said: "Let's talk about it in two years. I want to spend two years in a world of two."
"A world of two?" Lu Cheng was a little curious when he heard his description, "What does this mean? Does it mean that we live together as two people?"
Lin Qingqing: "Yes, a world of two means living together as two people. We have just started. Do you want me to get pregnant and have a baby suddenly? Don't you want to spend a few years in a world of two with me first?"
"Of course not, I am willing, I really want to." Lu Cheng confessed immediately. He didn't value offspring in the first place, and now Lin Qingqing puts a world of two people before offspring, which shows that she values herself. How could he not be willing. "Then is it a world of two people with Hai Ci here?"
Lin Qingqing: "..." Is there any father like this?
After Lu Cheng finished his breakfast, Lin Qingqing went to work. He took a wooden basin to wash the sheets and quilt covers. It was not the first time that Lu Cheng went to wash clothes. He was often seen in the family compound. So when he went to wash the sheets and quilt covers today, no one would find it strange. But... the problem was that he just came back from the mission yesterday, and he went to wash the sheets and quilt covers today,
so people who saw it had some ideas. Everyone thought that since Captain Lu came back yesterday and went to wash the sheets and quilt covers today, Captain Lu and his wife must have had a very intense fight last night.
So when Lu Cheng washed the sheets and quilt covers, he was still facing everyone's curious eyes.
Early in the morning, Lin Qingqing walked into the office and found that Hong Jun's expression was not very good. Seeing this, Lin Qingqing couldn't help but ask: "Good morning, Director Hong, you don't look well, are you feeling unwell?"
Hong Jun shook his head: "Our logistics department has been reformed. The four departments of finance, quartermaster, fuel, and supplies have been merged into the supply department. We used to be the supply department, and now we have also become the supply department."
Lin Qingqing heard it and said: "Then three of the directors of the finance department, quartermaster, fuel department, and supply department will be removed."
Hong Jun nodded and said: "Yes, in addition to this, the three departments of ordnance, transportation, and equipment planning will be merged into the equipment department. This is a reform aimed at the Logistics Headquarters. If the Logistics Headquarters does this, our local troops will of course follow suit, but this reform will really affect the Logistics Headquarters."
Lin Qingqing understood that the General Logistics Department had been weakened.
Hong Jun: "Don't think too much. These are not things we can change. Alas..."
"Don't worry too much. I believe the sun will come." Lin comforted gently. Although her mood was a little subtle, she was not deeply affected because she knew that such things would continue for ten years. And then, many leaders and intellectuals would be gradually affected.
Gaoshanao Production Brigade
"Brother Aojun, I'm here." A girl with a pretty face and a slim figure walked out of the bushes.
"Su Fen." Lin Aojun ran to her side happily and took out a boiled egg from his trouser pocket, "Here, eat it quickly to replenish your body."
"Thank you, Brother Aojun." Su Fen happily took the boiled egg from Lin Aojun's hand, but after peeling the eggshell, she gave half to Lin Aojun.
"I don't want to eat it, you eat it..." Before Lin Aojun finished speaking, Su Fen stuffed half of the boiled egg into Lin Aojun's mouth, "I know Brother Aojun doesn't like boiled eggs, but boiled eggs can replenish the body, and I also want to replenish the body with Brother Aojun."
Su Fen was an educated youth who came to the countryside in October last year. There are four children in her family, and she is the second child. Logically, she is the neglected one at home, but she is very smart and not like other neglected children. Last year, she had no choice but to go to the countryside. After going to the countryside, she analyzed the current situation and then took a fancy to Lin Aojun of the Lin family.
Grandpa Lin of the Lin family is a doctor in the brigade.
The Lin family has three branches that have not yet separated. The eldest branch has two sons. The eldest son works in the army. The second son is Lin Aojun. He graduated from junior high school and failed to enter high school, so he became an accounting assistant in the brigade.
The second branch of the Lin family has one son and one daughter. The eldest daughter married the head of the army and is now a female soldier in the army. The second son is still young.
The third branch of the Lin family has three sons.
No one would look down on such conditions, even if they were from the countryside. So Su Fen chose the Lin family, and since Lin Aojun was tall, she liked him.
Su Fen's intelligence was also reflected in the fact that she did not eat alone. She knew that it was one thing for a man to love you, but if you wanted a man to love you all the time, you had to learn to love him, so that you could always have his heart. So every time Lin Aojun gave her something delicious, she would give half to Lin Aojun. She had a firm grasp on Lin Aojun's heart.
Lin Aojun was a country boy who had only met country girls and had never met someone with Su Fen's personality. She would act coquettishly and say nice things to him, so he liked her very much. Even if Grandma Lin objected, he was still stubborn and wanted to marry her.
"Fenfen, you are so good to me." Lin Aojun was eating the egg, feeling very satisfied. He had completely forgotten that the egg originally belonged to him.
Su Fen smiled sweetly at him, and then revealed a trace of sadness.
Seeing this, Lin Aojun couldn't help but ask, "Fenfen, what's wrong with you?"
Su Fen said, "I received a letter from home a few days ago. My father is sick and the situation is a bit serious. He may die at any time... He wants to see me get married... So..." At this point, she lowered her head. "Brother Aojun, if your family disagrees, let's forget it. If it weren't for my father's problem, I could still insist, but now, I don't want to be an unfilial daughter. I'm sorry."
"No, you are not sorry for me, I am sorry for you." Lin Aojun said, "Don't worry, I will convince grandma."
"Actually..." Su Fen raised her head and said with red eyes, "Actually there is another way. I don't know if Brother Aojun is willing to cooperate with me, but doing so may hurt your grandma's heart. But after we get married, I will be doubly filial to her, and I will also ask for her forgiveness."
Lin Aojun did not expect Su Fen to have a way. When he heard her say this, he ignored everything else she said. He asked anxiously, "What can I do?"
Su Fen said, "If you and... you tell grandma that we have done intimate things and you must be responsible for me, then grandma will definitely agree."
Lin Aojun thought about it and felt that this plan was indeed feasible. He still had some understanding of his grandmother's character. Although she was strong, if he ruined the girl's reputation, she would definitely let him take responsibility, so... "Grandma will be disappointed in me."
"So after we get married, we will confess this to grandma and ask her to forgive us." Su Fen said, "As long as we sincerely ask for grandma's forgiveness, grandma will definitely forgive us." She didn't think about deceiving Grandma Lin all the time. She knew that if she kept deceiving, it would be more serious, so it would be better to confess after marriage. In this way, they have already married, and the Lin family can't regret it. And if she apologizes immediately, the Lin family will definitely think she is honest. "Brother Aojun, think about it again. Although we may hurt your grandmother's heart by doing this, her sadness will only be temporary and will not cause any real harm, don't you think? ... It's my fault. How could I say such a plan? We are not destined to be together. Brother Aojun, just pretend that I never said anything about it. I... I'm going back first."
"No." Lin Aojun held her back, "I... I'll go and try."
The army
Dinglingling...
Lu Cheng washed the sheets and quilts in the morning. He was writing a summary of this mission when the phone in the office rang: "Hello, this is Lu Cheng."
"Captain Lu, there is a comrade named Zhang Shimin at the gate of the army looking for you."
When Lu Cheng heard this, a sharp look flashed in his eyes: "No." The Zhang family came to see him? Since his parents divorced when he was six years old, the Zhang family has visited him twice.
The first time was when he was in military school. The family did a background check, and after the Zhang family knew he was in military school, they came to find him. The one who came at that time was also Zhang Shimin. At that time, Zhang Shimin wanted to find him to return to the Zhang family, and he only said one condition, unless Zhang Shilin divorced. But Zhang Shilin certainly would not divorce. So Zhang Shimin had to give up.
And now is the second time. Why did Zhang Shimin come to him at this time? Lu Cheng thought about the situation of the Zhang family, and then thought about the current situation, and vaguely knew the purpose of Zhang Shimin's visit.
Lu Cheng hung up the phone and continued to write his mission summary, without being affected at all. He treated the Zhang family as strangers, so how could he be influenced by them?
Ding-ling-ling...
But the phone rang again not long after it was hung up.
Lu Cheng couldn't help but frown and said coldly: "From now on, if anyone with the surname Zhang comes to see me, I will not see him."
"Lu Cheng, I'm your grandma..." Grandma Lin didn't react for a moment when she heard Lu Cheng's somewhat cold words.
Lu Cheng thought it was still a soldier calling, but this time it was Grandma Lin who called. He immediately softened his voice and said, "I'm sorry, Grandma, I didn't know it was your call. How is your family lately?" When
Grandma Lin heard him asking about her family, she told her the purpose of the call: "Things are not very good at home, but it's not a big deal. They're just everyone's little thoughts." If it were in the past, Grandma Lin would certainly not tell Lu Cheng about the family's shame. She was also worried that Lu Cheng would look down on his granddaughter. But now that her granddaughter has made a good career, Grandma Lin is no longer afraid that Lu Cheng will look down on her granddaughter, so she dared to say, "I told Qingqing before that Aojun has found a educated youth partner, and now they are getting married."
Lu Cheng raised his eyebrows. He knew that Lin Aojun had found a educated youth partner, and Qingqing had mentioned it before, but he remembered that when Qingqing said it, she mentioned that Grandma Lin did not agree with it. How come the two are getting married now? Lu Cheng did not ask, because he was not a gossipy person. "Do you mean that you want Big Brother to come back with us to attend the wedding?"
Grandma Lin immediately said, "No, no, I just told you about this. You have to work hard, and they don't have the face to let you take leave to come back for the wedding." Shameless two beasts, you still want Qingqing and his wife and the three people of the Yiyang family to take leave to attend the wedding? Give them face.
After hearing what Lin Aojun said, Grandma Lin was upset. She had never thought that Lin Aojun and Su Fen would have a relationship to threaten her. If it was in the past, Grandma Lin would have directly kicked Lin Aojun out of the house. But in the current situation, if this matter spread, Lin Aojun would definitely be arrested. So Grandma Lin had no choice but to agree to the marriage. In fact, she was so angry that she didn't want to go through with the marriage, but in this way, it would not be Lin Aojun who would be embarrassed, but the Lin family.
Lu Cheng: "I know, Grandma, don't worry, I will tell Qingqing about this happy event."
Grandma Lin warned: "Lu Cheng, tell Qingqing that she doesn't need to come back, you have to take care of your own business." After all, it was a family matter, and she called just to tell her grandson and granddaughter about it.
Lu Cheng: "I understand."
