Chapter 182 Get lost!

Lin Shu greeted them indifferently, not giving them the illusion that she was very enthusiastic and wanted to entertain them.

Lest Tang Bin take advantage of the situation

. She and Hou Shuxian had no feelings for each other. She had heard from her elder sister that Hou Shuxian complained about being implicated when something happened at home.

She had even less good feelings towards Tang Bin. When something happened to the Hou family, the Tang family seemed to want to draw a clear line between them, and Tang Bin seamlessly switched from a bootlicker to a heartless scumbag.

Hou Shuxian hadn't seen enough of such a face?

How could elder sister Lin not know why Tang Bin came? She immediately said to Lin Shu, "It's getting late, I'll go home first."

Lin Shu knew what her elder sister meant, nodded, and went home first.

Tang Bin was anxious, "Sister-in-law, why don't we go to my third sister's house? My dad brought something for my third sister and her husband."

He was older than Lin Shu, but Lin Shu was a few months older than Hou Shuxian, so he called her sister.

Sister Lin said unhappily, "My third sister's wife is busy at home, so how can she wait for you to come over?"

This was considered a rude remark for Sister Lin's gentle personality.

Hou Shuxian looked unhappy, but Tang Bin didn't care. His goal was to make friends with Lu Shaotang, so what did other people's difficulties and obstructions matter?

As long as the goal was achieved, he could use any means. He married Hou Shuxian by being thick-skinned and constantly pestering her.

He was confident that he could also win Lu Shaotang's favor through such means.

His father is now competing with someone for the position of factory director. The other party is very powerful and has many connections and resources. His father is unable to compete with him and hopes to get help from Lu Shaotang.

They have been investigating and inquiring about Lu Shaotang for a long time. Lu Shaotang is now a popular figure in the military region and the government. His words are effective.

As long as Lu Shaotang helps, his father will definitely become the director of the ordnance factory.

They have been waiting in the family courtyard for half an afternoon. The people in the No. 8 courtyard said that Director Lu was not there and his sister-in-law was out. They would not let them in. Now that they finally waited for someone, how could he leave easily?

Lin Shu simply ignored them. Things like being kind to others and family face were not effective for her, who had been baptized by all kinds of modern interpersonal relationship concepts.

Later people learned to use subtraction in interpersonal relationships and reduce ineffective social interactions.

If you don't like the other person but still put yourself in a difficult position to greet him/her with a smile, then the other person must be someone who pays you and supports your family, right?

For anyone who doesn't have the pressure of a mortgage to support his/her family, the boss is nothing, let alone a brother-in-law of a big brother-in-law?

If it was a brother-in-law, she might make some concessions, but a brother-in-law's brother-in-law?

Go away and cool off.

As soon as Lin Shu and Zheng Jie left, Sister Lin invited them to go back to her home.

Hou Shuxian was a little unhappy and muttered, "Sister-in-law, why is your sister like this? She doesn't give face to relatives at all. Isn't this a slap in your face?"

Sister Lin couldn't stand people saying bad things about the third sister. She was always very affectionate with the third sister. Did she need the sister-in-law to instigate?

This sister-in-law couldn't tell the good from the bad, and couldn't tell the inside from the outside. She was really raised too inexperienced by her parents-in-law.

Without waiting for Sister Lin to speak, Tang Bin quickly advised, "The third sister must be busy."

He was also unhappy in his heart, but he knew that things were different now. If he showed his displeasure to his eldest uncle-in-law, then his uncle-in-law might just kick them out.

When Sister Lin took the two of them home, the neighbors who were originally talking and laughing suddenly fell silent. It was unknown whether they were on guard against them or what.

Sister Lin didn't care, she opened the door and went into the house, "Your eldest brother is on a business trip and hasn't come back yet, I'll make you some dumpling soup, after you eat it you..."

"Sister-in-law!" Hou Shuxian pouted, "Where are Hou Bo and the others?"

Sister Lin said they were at the third aunt's house.

Hou Shuxian became more and more unhappy, feeling that her sister-in-law made the children close to her mother's family and not close to her grandparents and sister-in-law. She was spoiled since she was a child, and she always said whatever she thought, regardless of other people's thoughts, "Sister-in-law, Hou Bo and the others don't miss grandparents?"

Sister Lin was too lazy to guess what she meant. She now learned from Lin Shu to consider others as little as possible and be straightforward about everything.

She said, "Of course I want to. Of course I don't want to. Your brother and I are planning to go to the farm to accompany our parents during the New Year. Do you want to go?"

Hou Shuxian choked. She...of course she couldn't go. She was already a married woman. How could she go back to her parents' home to celebrate the New Year?

Especially in a place like a farm, how could she endure such a harsh environment?

Sister Lin was too lazy to say anything. Some people just want others to be hardworking, but she couldn't do it.

Tang Bin tried to smooth things over at first, but later he realized that Sister Lin really didn't like them. She might have pretended to be nice for her parents-in-law and men before, but now that the Hou family was declining and the Hou family was close to the Lu family, they didn't even pretend.

He didn't even have the heart to eat. After all, why did his family need this bowl of dumpling soup?

He didn't come here just to get some dumpling soup.

After sitting for a while, he saw that Sister Lin was unwilling to help. He knew that the Hou family would not treat him well after they got involved with the Lu family, so he stood up and said goodbye in a bad mood.

He was unwilling to give up, and finally deliberately tested, "Sister-in-law, this Maotai is for Director Lu..."

Sister Lin immediately interrupted him, "No need, my third sister's wife's family has strict discipline, and they don't take a single needle or thread from the masses."

Tang Bin smiled and said, "They are my own relatives, not..."

"Relatives are also the masses, and relatives can just give a few yuan as gifts when they visit each other, why do they need so much?"

This must be twenty or thirty years, right?

Her attitude is the best answer: I won't help you get to know Lu Shaotang, no matter how much you do, it will be in vain.

She believes that people like Tang Bin can understand, and the more straightforward the other party speaks, the more straightforward she will refuse.

Seeing Sister Lin being so rude, Hou Shuxian became even more unhappy.

She was used to it and didn't realize that her sister-in-law was not her biological sister, nor did she know that her sister-in-law had no obligation to pamper her like her parents and brothers. She just thought that her sister-in-law was a member of the Hou family after she married into the family, and she had to pamper her like her parents and brothers.

Now that she saw that her sister-in-law was not as affectionate and polite to her as before, she was very angry. She felt that her sister-in-law was now focusing on serving her biological sister and ignoring her, her sister from the husband's family. Not to mention serving and taking care of herself, she even perfunctorily treated her when she came home to eat.

In the past, Sister Lin would treat them well for the sake of her husband and her parents-in-law, and out of kinship, and would be too embarrassed to refuse their requests. But now, go to hell!

I serve my parents-in-law out of filial piety, but what about serving your sister-in-law?

Tang Bin picked and chose, wanting to leave some gifts for Sister Lin. The expensive ones should be kept for the sake of maintaining relationships, and of course they couldn't be left casually.

Sister Lin was always careful, and she didn't say anything for the sake of face before, but now she said rather impolitely: "Okay, don't pick, we just need a full meal now, we don't need these things, you can take them all back."

Tang Bin was very embarrassed, and hurriedly put down the two cans, "Give them to the children."

Hou Shuxian was already wiping tears with red eyes and biting her lips.

In the past, let alone wiping tears, she would just look unhappy, and her mother and sister-in-law would immediately care about what was wrong.

But now her sister-in-law ignored her as if nothing had happened.

Did she not care whether she lived or died? Was she

unwilling to even let her have a meal?

She was not like Tang Bin who was obsessed with making friends with Lu Shaotang. She really wanted to go back to her parents' home to feel the warmth, and she had already prepared the dishes and chopsticks.

Now Tang Bin said goodbye, and her sister-in-law did not try to keep him. Hou Shuxian was sad and angry. She turned around and left angrily without saying a word. She

will never come again! She

won't come even if you invite her!

Tang Bin said goodbye to Sister Lin awkwardly, and quickly chased after her with his things.

After leaving the gate of the family compound, Tang Bin said to Hou Shuxian in dissatisfaction: "What's wrong with you? Don't you know why I accompanied you to your parents' home? Why do you always act like a child?"

Hou Shuxian said angrily: "What's the point of you getting close to her if she is like that? Can't you see that she treats her like her own sister?"

Tang Bin: "That's how it is. We are not competing with others for who is related to us. We just want her to introduce us to the Lu Bureau."

Hou Shuxian sarcastically said: "You and your father are so obsessed with power that you have to sharpen your brains to climb up?"

These words are more cruel than anything else. It is equivalent to pointing at the Tang family's nose and scolding them for being "official-obsessed, shameless, and losing their skin just to become officials". Who can stand this?

Most people would beg for favors half-heartedly, and the other party would know what to do, and they would accept the favors and do the work, and in the end, both parties would be respectful.

How could anyone be so shameless as Hou Shuxian?

Tang Bin turned cold and snorted, "Before you got married, you were Miss Hou, and you were used to a life of luxury. After you got married, you were also served with good food and drink. Don't you think that ordinary people can make you so comfortable? If my father and I didn't work hard, could you be so comfortable? If you are not satisfied, try eating coarse grains first."

After saying that, he didn't wait for Hou Shuxian, but got on a rickshaw and left.

Hou Shuxian stood in the cold wind, feeling sad and cold, and she cried again out of anger, and soon her eyelashes were covered with a layer of white frost.

It happened that Lu Shaotang came back from outside with Xiaozhuang. He was tall and long-legged, and his temperament was cold and aloof. He was very eye-catching in the thin sunlight of winter. Hou

Shuxian saw him at a glance, and she immediately shouted: "Lu Shaotang!"

Lu Shaotang heard it, but he did not slow down his pace but quickened his pace into the family yard. Xiaozhuang chased after Lu Shaotang, "Captain, a woman called you just now." Lu Shaotang frowned, "You are getting worse and worse. You should continue to improve your cultural subjects." Xiaozhuang was anxious, "Brother, why?" I have good ears, what's wrong with that? Wuwu, I just heard someone calling you, and I was afraid you would hear... Wait, the captain has such good hearing, it doesn't make sense that he heard that the captain didn't hear it. So, the captain pretended not to hear it? Xiao Zhuang raised his hand and slapped his head, making him slow down. Lu Shaotang did not explain why he ignored her, and let Xiao Zhuang figure it out on his own. If they were talking about work, the other party should go to the office and should address him by his position. This woman called him by his name directly, so it was not a business matter. If it was a private matter, he would never do private matters for outsiders, especially women. Besides, her tone was unkind, and it was not a good thing if she had something to do, so he naturally ignored her. In the end, he was not familiar with her, but this person knew his name, most likely from his wife's side, and when she called him, her tone was angry, and most likely there was a conflict between him and his wife. He absolutely could not pay attention to her. Hou Shuxian felt that Lu Shaotang was deliberately humiliating her, and she had never had a man so cold to her since she was a child. Lu Shaotang must have been instigated by Lin Shu. She immediately felt that her sister-in-law and brother were taken away by Lin Shu. Lu Shaotang returned home, and Lin Shu was cooking. Seeing him back, Lin Shu did not hide anything and told him directly about the Tang family. "If they come to you, don't agree to anything." Lu Shaotang: "I know." He washed his hands and went forward to help. Soon Hou Bo, Hou Ying and Panpan came back, and the house immediately became as lively as an amusement park. Lin Shu asked Hou Bo to go back and see if Hou Shuxian and her husband had left. If they had, call Sister Lin to come over for dinner. Sister Lin happened to come over with the dumpling soup. After dinner, Hou Bo and Hou Ying took some tea leaf eggs to school in multi-layer lunch boxes, which were all reserved by classmates. Selling them to their classmates was two cents cheaper. Panpan didn't go to the nursery for three afternoons, and asked for leave from Principal Du to sell tea leaf eggs. Lin Shu took the time to cut the red cloth in the afternoon. She drew the cutting lines and asked Lu Shaotang to help. Lu Shaotang was rarely unemployed and stayed at home with his wife. He had strong hands and steady hands, and the fabrics he cut were not bad at all. Lu Shaotang knew that his wife and her sisters wanted to make clothes for their second sister, so he said, "I'll have someone send a sewing machine over." He didn't want his wife to sew clothes by hand, which would be tiring for her eyes and hands. They will come to stay often in the future. The children grow up quickly, so Lin Shu will definitely have to make clothes for them all the time. Lin Shu was curious: "Do you have tickets?" Lu Shaotang smiled: "If you need them, you can get them." In the past, it was inconvenient for him to go home, so he gave many benefits to others. Now that his wife needs them, he can naturally take them back.

Lin Shu thought about it, a sewing machine can be used for decades, although Xiuxiu can make clothes, but she also has many ideas to put into practice, the family still needs one.

Buying it is also OK.

Panpan and Tiantian heard it and ran over, each holding Lu Shaotang's thigh, "Dad, we also want to buy something."

Lu Shaotang lowered his eyes to look at them, "What are you two buying?"

Tiantian: "Radio, we want to buy a radio for grandma to listen to. Grandma is lonely when we are not at home."

Lin Shu laughed, the son imagined that grandma was lonely, your grandfather went to work every day to give injections and see patients, your grandma was busy making money all day, and she didn't want to waste a minute.

Even though Lu Shaotang made so much money, there was still no radio at home.

It was mainly because Fang Dihua and Lu Laodi were thrifty and didn't care what he asked for, as long as he was safe. He sent all the money back, so there was no money to buy a radio, and he never thought about buying one for the family.

The two kids didn't think the family needed a radio before, but now they are older, they think more, and know more. Most families in the city have a chatterbox, so how can grandma not have one?

They felt that they needed a radio so that they could listen to what was happening outside.

Without waiting for Lin Shu to take the money, Panpan took out a stack of bills in both small and large amounts, and even a stack of one-cent and two-cent notes.

These are all from selling tea eggs and candied haws.

Tiantian: "My brothers and sisters and I have already researched. We don't need to buy the most expensive ones, but we can't buy the worst ones either. We want Chunlei Semiconductor..."

Panpan even measured the size, "This sounds good to my grandma. We found out that it only costs 42 yuan. The battery is 2.2 yuan per battery, and three batteries are enough. In addition, we need to buy more batteries for backup."

Sister Lin: "..."

Only... 42 yuan?

Do you know that 42 is the monthly salary of a cadre with a high position? Let's

put it this way, although Huang Wei is reluctant to give up her job in the archives, in fact, the monthly salary is only about 40 yuan.

Hou Jianwen is a technical cadre, so his salary is slightly higher, only 48 yuan.

But the children are still young and have little idea of ​​money, especially since they made money from selling tea eggs.

Sister Lin really admired them, because the children really made money.

Lin Shu agreed, and Lu Shaotang had no objection. After all, the money he made was for his wife and children to spend, and his wife had the final say on how to spend it.

It was much easier to buy things in the family compound of the Revolutionary Committee in the provincial capital than in the countryside.

You can get it as long as you need it, even if you have no money or tickets. Anyway, you get paid every month and can pay it back later.

In the evening, the department store delivered a brand new sewing machine and radio on a tricycle.

This time, I bought a Butterfly brand foldable belly-hiding sewing machine, which comes with a matching sewing machine table, and costs five more yuan.

Lu Shaotang personally carried it upstairs and installed it in the dining room.

Lin Shu and her eldest sister were adjusting the sewing machine, and the children were adjusting the radio, all of them were very busy.

With a sewing machine, it was convenient to make clothes. The two sisters made three red coats for the second sister in two days, and used the remaining cloth to make a red vest for Tiantian to wear over a cotton jacket.

Two days later, Hou Jianwen hurried back from the factory, and everyone spent the Laba Festival in the family compound. On the morning of the ninth day, they received a call from Jiang Weidong and Lin Xia inviting them to come over early.

Jiang Weidong's voice sounded younger. "The wedding is scheduled for the 16th of the lunar month. I specially applied to the factory and prepared two dormitories. Both my eldest sister and my third sister's families can come and stay."

Lin Shu and her eldest sister were excited. Today was the 10th day of the lunar month, and they had to hurry over.

However, Lu Shaotang and Hou Jianwen could not go with them. They had not had their holiday yet and had to go to work.

The children didn't mind.

Hou Bo and Hou Ying were good students, and what they knew was far beyond what the teacher taught. Tiantian and the other two didn't mind at all, because they had already sold all the tea eggs.

Although Lu Shaotang was reluctant to leave his wife, he would not hold back as he had to attend his second sister's wedding. He helped pack things and gifts, and arranged a car to take his wife and eldest sister and the children there. Panpan

and Tiantian took little Hou Wei to say goodbye to their friends in the family compound. They might have to come back after the

Chinese New Year. They were going back to Lujiazhuang to celebrate the Chinese New Year!

Li Li, Huang Han and other children were reluctant to leave them. Although they were only there for a few days, they were already reluctant to leave Panpan and Tiantian.

The two kids were really so cute. They could tell stories, sing songs, lead everyone to play games, and protect them...

There were so many benefits.

Guan Ze was reluctant to leave them. Although he could not be as close to Pan Pan as Li Li, they could still play fun games and listen to good stories in the nursery.

Not only the children, but also Principal Du was sad.

The old lady liked to be with children, especially those who were innocent and sensible. It was like a secret medicine for rejuvenation, making her feel 20 years younger.

She regretted that she could not persuade Lin Shu to come to the nursery to be a teacher. She personally went to persuade her to give up her position and let Xian become the principal of Lin Shu, but Lin Shu declined.

Knowing that Lin Shu and Sister Lin were going to take the children to attend the second sister's wedding, Yang Shumin, Zheng Jie, Zhang Ya and others also expressed their favor and took the initiative to send gifts.

They were not very expensive, but they were also practical, such as food coupons, candy, noodles, canned food, etc.

Lin Shu did not refuse and accepted them all. This was a gift for everyone to exchange on a daily basis, and she would bring it to them when she returns next year.

Early in the morning of the 11th, Lu Shaotang watched his wife and children leave. Standing in the square in front of the agency compound, he felt a little empty in his heart.

This was an unprecedented feeling, and he knew it was reluctance and a sweet bond.

Yan Zhendong: "Director Lu, your sister-in-law is gone?" He

couldn't help but sigh.

Lu Shaotang glanced at him. My wife is gone, why are you sighing?

Yan Zhendong: "Huilan is so sorry that such a good person like your sister-in-law cannot work in the Women's Federation. Director Lu, please go back and do some ideological work."

Chen Huilan is his wife.

Lu Shaotang said calmly: "My wife can't be the director of the Women's Department. It's too tiring."

Yan Zhendong: "..."

So you are the one who loves your wife.

After Lin Shu and the others left, Lu Shaotang called Jiang Weidong.

The truck that Lu Shaotang arranged happened to be on a business trip to Rongcheng, so he took Lin Shu and the others there.

The truck stopped at the gate of the steel mill, and Jiang Weidong and Lin Xia had been waiting there for a while.

Lin Shu thanked the driver and gave him a pack of cigarettes.

The driver declined twice and accepted it, helped Lin Shu and the others carry their luggage, exchanged a few words with Jiang Weidong, and then drove away.

"Aunt, uncle, I miss you so much!"

The three kids rushed to the two of them like Xiaoyanzi.

No matter whether they really miss you or not, Jiang Weidong and Lin Xia were very fond of them.

Jiang Weidong picked up Tiantian and shook her, "You ate very well in Qizhou and gained weight."

Tiantian smiled and said, "Yes, yes, the food in the Qizhou cafeteria is great. Although my cooking skills are not as good as my mom's, the ingredients are plenty, and the big steamed buns and meat slices are so affordable."

Jiang Weidong really likes his children. Which child can talk like Tiantian? Listen to her although, but, and so on, in a set way. Many adults don't say that.

When people saw them on the road, they congratulated Jiang Weidong and Lin Xia one after another, "Director Jiang, Master Lin, congratulations!"

"Master Lin's elder sister and third sister are here, congratulations!"

It was originally just a matter of greeting each other, but Panpan generously took out the cheapest candy he had from his pocket and shared a piece with them when they met, saying "Let's be happy together."

He learned this in Qizhou.

In Qizhou, he made many new friends, and their parents asked their children to invite them to play at home. Each family has its own unique way of speaking, and he can more or less learn a few words that he thinks are new. "

Let's be happy together" is what he just learned, and he thinks it is new and likes to say it.

People think this child is really amazing.

When he came to visit his father last year, he still felt like a child. Now he seems to have grown up a lot. Not only is he taller, but his eyebrows are no longer so childish.

Aunt Jiang is busy cutting red wedding characters at home. When the time comes, not only will the house be filled with red wedding characters, but she will also paste them all over the door, the trees on the roadside, the walls, and even the dormitory where the bride will temporarily stay.

It takes several knives to cut the red paper.

Hearing the children's movements, Aunt Jiang was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling, "Finally, you are here. It's cold outside. Come in and warm up!"

The children greeted their grandmother one after another. Now they didn't need to call her Grandma Jiang, they just called her Grandma.

Aunt Jiang was so happy. Sister Lin and Lin Shu both had a large family. When Lin Xia and Jiang Weidong got married, there would definitely be a lot of children.

When her son refused to get married, she felt that she was too old to serve him and told him to go to the canteen. Now she felt that she was young and strong and could take care of three or five children.

Sister Lin and Aunt Jiang met for the first time. They exchanged a few words and presented the gifts they brought.

Lin Shu and Sister Lin prepared a lot of practical gifts, mainly food coupons, red and white sugar, candy, peanuts and melon seeds, and some cigarettes and alcohol, which are all necessary for weddings.

The cigarettes and alcohol were prepared by Lu Shaotang and Hou Jianwen.

Aunt Jiang said happily to Lin Shu and Sister Lin: "Among a bunch of days that are not suitable for marriage, there is a day that is suitable for marriage. It is really specially prepared for us."

She secretly asked someone to check the good days.

Today is also suitable for marriage, but time is too tight, so it is better to go on the 16th.

In the next few days, Lin Xia will live in the dormitory with her elder sister Lin Shu, and on the 16th, Jiang Weidong will go there to marry her.

"Crackle, crackle" the sound of firecrackers came from outside.

Someone shouted, "The bride is coming, the bride is coming!"

Lin Shu turned her head to look outside.

Lin Xia smiled and said, "Don't look, it's Qian Lisheng and Zhang Shuxia getting married."

Lin Shu: "..."

Really speechless.

Is he deliberately trying to challenge and annoy his second sister and second brother-in-law?

Jiang Weidong smiled and said, "It's okay, let's not talk about that, there are many couples getting married on a good day, they are not bad."

Although the second marriage is not a big deal, but he is willing to have a big one for Lin Xia, but he can't care about Qian Lisheng having a big one for Zhang Shuxia, right?

Qian Lisheng was unwilling, so he used this method to hate people, but who would care?

Jiang Weidong's good mood was not affected at all. He even comforted Lin Xia, who didn't care.

Aunt Jiang felt uncomfortable at first, but later she figured it out. This showed that the Qian family was jealous of her family. Lin Xia was such a good daughter-in-law, but the Qian family ruined her. Now it's her daughter-in-law. The

Qian family must be very angry.

Oh, Aunt Jiang was so happy.

Before dinner, Lin Shu brought her own kimchi, tea leaf eggs, spicy cabbage and other refreshing side dishes that everyone liked to visit Han Yun, the director of the factory office and others.

Li Xiaoru happened to be at home, and she gave the children several gifts, including a flute, a pan flute, and a harmonica. They were all prizes she won in competitions after joining the unit. She didn't have any use for them, so she gave them to the children to play with.

Lin Shu thanked them on behalf of the children.

That night, everyone had a reunion dinner at Aunt Jiang's place. It was hot and noisy. Aunt Jiang was so happy that she got drunk.

Aunt Jiang held Lin Shu's hand and said, "My dear, I'm happy. I'm really happy."

Lin Shu smiled and said, "Aunt, we will be a family from now on."

Aunt Jiang: "Yeah."

Lin Shu and her elder sister helped Old Lady Jiang back to the house and helped her take off her clothes to prevent the old lady from catching a cold if she slept in her clothes.

Jiang Weidong sent them there. The dormitory had already been prepared with bedding, warm pots, washbasins and other supplies, so they could move in directly.

Lin Shu and her elder sister went into the house and sent the children to bed quickly.

Now little Hou Wei is in love with Panpan and Tiantian, and doesn't have to stay with elder sister Lin. Panpan and Tiantian originally wanted to stay close to Lin Shu, but seeing how much their younger brother depends on them, they immediately realized that they are older brothers and sisters, and they were too embarrassed to stay close to their mother.

So the children slept with Hou Bo and Hou Ying, and Lin Shu slept with the elder and second sisters.

Lin Shu was also happy that she could sleep close to her sweet and soft sister like she did when she was a child.

Jiang Weidong walked them there, and after talking for a while, he was reluctant to leave and asked Lin Xia to walk him to the door. The two of them whispered to each other.

Lin Shu smiled secretly and motioned to her elder sister to look.

Elder sister Lin also laughed and poked Lin Shu on the waist, whispering, "Don't laugh at your second sister and brother-in-law. I think your brother-in-law and you are so close, he is even more powerful than them."

Lin Shu's cheeks were slightly hot, and she said stubbornly, "Impossible! Lu Shaotang is often on business trips, and I don't miss him at all."

Elder sister Lin laughed, "Yes, yes, I can be trusted. You don't miss him at all."

After a while, Lin Xia came back, closed the door, and said to the eldest sister and third sister, "It's so cold outside."

Lin Shu teased her, "Second sister, if you stand with your second brother-in-law until midnight, you might freeze into popsicles."

Lin Xia rushed over with a smile and tickled Lin Shu, "Okay, it's your turn to make fun of me."

The children were sleeping soundly next door and were not easy to wake up, so the three of them were a little reckless here.

Lin Xia and elder sister Lin pushed two beds together, and the three sisters slept together, whispering endlessly at night.

Today is the wedding day of Qian Lisheng and Zhang Shuxia. The scenery outside is just Qian Lisheng's deliberate show for others. He wants to show others that he is no worse than Jiang Weidong. What

Jiang Weidong can give to Lin Xia, he can also give to Zhang Shuxia, and even give better and more!

He looks down on Zhang Shuxia and only treats her as a nanny, but he wants to use her to stimulate Lin Xia and compete with Lin Xia, but Lin Xia is completely indifferent.

Today he got married, and Lin Xia didn't even show up.

He drank a lot of wine and was a little drunk. He thought maybe she was hiding and marrying another woman for him because she was sad?

Does he love Lin Xia? Of course he

loves her, but more of it is unwilling.

He looked at Zhang Shuxia in front of him with drunken eyes, but he remembered the way he married Lin Xia.

At that time, she was really youthful and invincible, with black eyes, red lips, and a pretty face full of shyness. She was too embarrassed to look up at him, so she just lowered her head slightly and stole a glance at him.

Looking at Zhang Shuxia in front of him, although she was young, her face was already full of wrinkles, and there were wrinkles at the corners of her eyes. She looked ten years older than Lin Xia.

If Zhang Shuxia looked younger and more beautiful than Lin Xia, he would not miss Lin Xia so much, and would not be so unwilling and unconvinced.

Lin Xia divorced and found Jiang Weidong, who seemed to have better conditions than herself, and he found Zhang Shuxia, who was not as good as Lin Xia. This made Qian Lisheng unwilling.

He felt that he had suffered a great loss.

Zhang Shuxia had already boiled some hot water, still looking like a virtuous wife with her eyebrows lowered and eyes lowered. She had never thought that Qian Lisheng would choose her over Han Xiaofen, and she had never thought that Qian Lisheng would marry her with the ceremony of a first marriage.

She was deeply moved, and loved him more and more, and wanted to serve him more and more. "Brother Qian, I'll wash your feet for you."

Qian Lisheng suddenly remembered that when he and Lin Xia were playing around after their wedding, he took the initiative to wash her feet, but she was itchy, and in the end the two of them went to bed.

He couldn't bear it any longer, so he got up, put on his coat, and rushed out in a hurry. The gust of wind he brought blew out one of the two red candles, and also half-pulled down the red wedding character on the door, making it flutter on the door.

He rushed downstairs to the dark corner to smoke, watching Jiang Weidong holding Lin Xia's hand and accompanying the Lin sisters and children to the dormitory, listening to their lively conversation, his heart felt like being gnawed by thousands of poisonous ants.

The more unwilling he was, the more unbalanced he felt.

How could they get better and better, while he got worse and worse?

God was so unfair.

All this was Jiang Weidong's fault. He must have hooked up with Lin Xia a long time ago and secretly instigated Lin Xia to divorce him. Otherwise, how could Lin Xia, who loved him so much, suddenly divorce him?

Time made his memory blurry, and unwillingness made his memory distorted. He forgot the frictions and conflicts between him and Lin Xia, and the dissatisfaction he had in the past. He just beautified their relationship and constantly emphasized his love for Lin Xia and how good she was to him.

He bluntly and savagely stripped away all the negative emotions of Lin Xia in his past life, such as dissatisfaction, fatigue, sadness, etc., just as he had disdained and ignored them in the past.

He stood in the cold night and smoked one cigarette after another, and finally waited for Jiang Weidong to come back.

He immediately strode over and growled, "Jiang Weidong! Stop right there!"

Jiang Weidong's mind was full of Lin Xia's smiling eyes and her soft lips. He was suddenly interrupted by Qian Lisheng, and he was immediately unhappy.

He had wanted to warn Qian Lisheng a long time ago, but he felt that since the other party had not danced to them, he had no reason to warn him. Tonight was really an opportunity that Qian Lisheng had presented himself to.

He knew that this guy was not an honest man.

"You despicable villain! Give me my Lin Xia back!" Qian Lisheng went crazy due to drinking and punched Jiang Weidong.

Jiang Weidong was originally a soldier. He kept exercising after retiring from the army. He was agile. How could he be ambushed by him?

Jiang Weidong leaned aside to avoid the fist, raised his arm and grabbed Qian Lisheng's arm, then threw him hard, "bang" Qian Lisheng fell to the ground. Qian Lisheng

was beaten so hard that he sobered up.

He was still unwilling to give up, and muttered, "Jiang Weidong, don't take advantage of your power to bully others. Don't think I don't know that you have been instigating Lin Xia behind my back..."

Jiang Weidong put one knee on Qian Lisheng's chest, twisted his arm with his big hand, and said coldly: "Qian Lisheng, I warn you, from now on, live an honest life with your wife. If you dare to harass Lin Xia, I will definitely not be polite. The 16th of December is Lin Xia and I's wedding day. You'd better take your wife and stay away from us that day. Don't show up in front of us, and don't quarrel or make trouble, otherwise..."

He exerted force on his knee, and Qian Lisheng felt a sharp pain as if his ribs were broken, and he was speechless for a while.

Jiang Weidong asked coldly, "Did you remember?"

Qian Lisheng was sober now, feeling extremely ashamed and angry, but unable to resist.

The humiliation made him hate Lin Xia and Jiang Weidong.

Seeing that he was still hesitating, Jiang Weidong suddenly said in a sharp voice, "Did you hear that?"

Qian Lisheng didn't have the courage to bully Jiang Weidong anymore, so he said weakly, "I heard that, I won't... disturb you."

Jiang Weidong then let him go and shouted coldly, "Get lost!"

Qian Lisheng had never seen such a cold-blooded Jiang Weidong. The Jiang Weidong he saw every day was always gentle and polite, kind to others, and rarely showed his strong and fierce side.

He got up and stumbled away.

No matter how arrogant he was and how much he didn't want to admit it, he knew that Jiang Weidong was much stronger than him.

At this moment, he also truly realized that he and Lin Xia would never be together again.
