Xia Linsheng stood in front of the Yu family's low stove, looking particularly tall and strong.
He lowered his head and gave Yu Haichao a smile: "Hey, Third Uncle, it's because I'm here. The army has enough food to eat and we train every day, so I've grown a little taller."
My stepmother Sun Yuying is a woman of great urgency.
She then walked into the wing room, first looking at Xia Linsheng, then at Yu Sui, and even glanced at the bacon on the stove. Finally, she turned back to Xia Linsheng, her face instantly filled with a smile:
"Oh, Linsheng is here. I haven't seen you in years. How come you've grown so tall? You're so handsome! If you were walking on the street, I wouldn't recognize you!"
Xia Linsheng politely bowed his head again: "Aunt San, yes, I'm back."
Sun Yuying's voice was full of joy:
"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back. Oh, Xiaosui has been thinking about you every day, thinking about you eight hundred times, and finally you're back! I heard your cousin say you were back, and I thought you would definitely come over. Look, I'm going to buy meat right away! When will you come? Look, Xiaosui has already prepared the meal for you, just waiting for you!"
Yu Sui: “…”
Oh my god!
This is not a lie, you are going to make the world go round!
Fortunately, Xia Linsheng did not expose the lie on the spot, but just nodded in response.
Sun Yuying happily ordered Yu Sui to bring all the dishes to the main room to entertain her future son-in-law.
After a while, the four of them sat around the octagonal table and started eating.
Yu Haichao is honest and only knows how to greet people: "Eat meat, eat meat."
Sun Yuying enthusiastically picked up some food for Xia Linsheng: "Eat meat, eat meat."
Yu Sui just ate the meat herself.
The old rice was mixed with wheat bran, which made it difficult to eat. Yu Sui’s throat was still sore, so he ate very little.
Xia Linsheng probably developed the habit of eating in the army. He finished a big bowl of rice in just a few mouthfuls, just like pouring out rice.
So, soon, Yu Sui and Xia Linsheng sat quietly, waiting for Sun Yuying and Yu Haichao to eat.
Five minutes later, everyone had finished eating.
Sun Yuying loudly called out to Yu Sui, "Xiao Sui, go wash the dishes," trying to create an atmosphere that her daughter was very hardworking.
Yu Sui didn't move: "Mom, Dad, Xia Linsheng has something to say."
Xia Linsheng looked at her: "...tell me now?"
Yu Sui looked back at him: "When do you want to tell me? We don't have to wait for an auspicious time to cancel the engagement, right?"
Sun Yuying's face turned pale.
Yu Haichao placed his hands on the table and clenched them.
Xia Linsheng slowly took out a cigarette, handed it to Yu Haichao, and lit it with a match: "Third Uncle, have a cigarette."
Yu Haichao picked up the phone, sighed, said nothing, and just smoked.
Xia Linsheng himself didn't smoke. He crossed his hands and placed them firmly on the table. "Third Uncle, the situation in the army is special. I haven't received any leave in the past few years. I haven't been able to come back to see you for a few years. I'm sorry that Xiaosui has been gossiped about and has suffered."
There was no way to express his feelings except to criticize the woman's faults. Yu Sui immediately felt relieved.
The green tea trick of putting the blame on someone else finally saved some face.
This male protagonist is quite kind.
Yu Haichao listened and looked at his wife out of habit.
Sun Yuying knew her daughter had done something foolish, and she was unsure. She hesitated, "Alas, it's nothing. Xiaosui...she's always messing around."
Xia Linsheng continued to speak quietly:
"She's very good. So, I thought, it's not easy for me to come back. If Third Uncle and Third Aunt agree, while I have a long vacation, why don't we get married first? Just set up a few tables, pay respects to the ancestors, and then welcome her home.
Of course, when I return to the army, she'll still come back to live here. After all, the situation back there... you all know, and I'm worried about her. When Xiaosui is old enough, I'll come back to get the certificate and transfer her household registration. That way, I won't have to worry about her all the time."
Yu Sui was so surprised that she looked at the man with her mouth wide open.
He was very frugal with his words to her, but he was full of chatter when talking to her parents.
Didn't he come to the village angrily at first just to break off the engagement? Why did he suddenly change his mind and get married?
He spoke so clearly, as if he had planned it all.
Yu Sui doesn't want to get married.
She has no expectations for marriage.
My parents divorced early, and even after remarrying, things still didn't go well with their new families.
Her eyes have seen too many marriage quarrels. If she were still in her original world, she would basically not choose to enter into marriage.
Now that she has traveled here, she may have no choice but to get married. It is impossible for her to get married right after traveling here.
Yu Sui quickly said, "Xia Linsheng, you don't need to be like this. You said it yourself when you were at the supply and marketing cooperative. You heard those things, so aren't you here to break off the engagement? If you want to break off, then go ahead. I don't blame you."
Sun Yuying stopped her: "What are you talking about, you little bitch!"
Xia Linsheng looked innocent: "I'm not going to cancel the engagement."
Yu Sui was confused: "Then you didn't call me when you saw me, and acted like I owed you money, what does that mean?"
Xia Linsheng reached into his pocket and took out a piece of paper that looked like it had been torn from a notebook. He handed it to Yu Sui:
"I found this thing stuck in my window this morning, and I was... a little angry. I think you shouldn't take care of yourself... so I wanted to come over and take a look."
Yu Sui took the paper and saw a single word written on it: "Dad, Mom, I just don't want to marry Xia Linsheng. If you don't agree, I'll just hang myself."
The handwriting seemed to have been written in a hurry, very sloppily, and there was no signature or date.
To be honest, if she were Xia Lin's biological mother, she would be angry if she heard such words.
Yu Sui frowned: Wow, look, there is actually such a note. How stupid is the original body? If it is fake, why did he still keep this thing?
Oh, it seems that the bookmaker did bring a note with him. Chen Mingli, the best friend who came up with the idea of hanging herself, asked him to write down this note so that she could help give it to Yu Haichao and Yu Haichao could rush back to save him immediately.
Actually, not.
So the original body died.
Yu Sui clenched her hands in her pockets: What kind of best friend is this? Even if her original body was not good, it was too much for her to plot such a thing. Moreover, she even forced her to travel through time and space to be a substitute.
At this moment, Yu Sui decided to avenge her original self.
In fact, it was also to help herself get revenge. Without these people, she could have lived a good life in the original world.
If she doesn't want her original body to die, then she will live a life that makes those people jealous!
䀴At this time, Sun Yuying had already reached out and took the paper.
She had limited literacy and didn't understand after looking at it for a few times. She frowned and handed it back to Yu Haichao.
After reading it, Yu Haichao read it quietly to Sun Yuying, then looked at Xia Linsheng with trembling hands, holding the note: "This... this, is not..."
Since she had decided to help the original body change its fate, Yu Sui was worried that her adopted father would be honest and say something even more ridiculous, so she quickly interrupted, "It wasn't me who wrote it. Xia Linsheng, you didn't even write me a letter back then, so you didn't even know it wasn't from me, right?"
In the past few days, Yu Sui did not find any letter from this man in her original body's room, and her stepmother did not mention it at all.
I hope this is an excuse to continue to deny my mistakes.
