Chapter 074 Going Home with Him

Lin Wanxia glanced at Jiang Sinian who was not going to speak, and said with a smile: "Isn't this just like a money-giving boy giving you money?"

"Don't worry! You are not giving money, you are asking for money." Chen Bin shook his head, looking painful, "I almost paid for the ship."

Jiang Sinian nodded, "Then let's go and check the goods!"

Lin Wanxia: "..."

So direct?

Chen Bin probably didn't expect Jiang Sinian to be so impatient. He was stunned for a moment, lowered his head and grabbed the collar and smelled it, "How about I change clothes when I get home?"

"We're all going to see it on the boat, why do you change clothes?"

Good question!

Chen Bin turned around and led the way without saying a word, "Let's go!"

The sea goods on the boat have not been unloaded yet.

Jiang Sinian jumped on the boat first, turned around and stretched out his hand to Lin Wanxia.

Lin Wanxia, ​​who had already lifted her skirt and was about to jump onto the boat, paused, lowered her skirt and handed her her hand.

Chen Bin, who was following at the end, uttered a short "huh", "Oh! When did our Captain Jiang learn to be gentle with women?"

Jiang Sinian pulled hard, and when Lin Wanxia was in the air, he hooked his arm around her waist, turned around and put her steadily on the deck. Hearing this, he turned his head and raised his eyebrows at Chen Bin, "Do you need me to hold you?"

Chen Bin took two steps back, "Thank you, but no."

Although the boat was still a mess and had not been cleaned up in time, it was obvious that it had been used with great care.

The boat had a complete range of accessories, and Chen Bin had also purchased all the configurations that were missing when it left the factory.

"Don't worry, sister-in-law. We are family, so I will never cheat you. I really cherish this boat. I spent all my retirement pay on this boat, and it was so precious to me at that time. I never got off the boat and lived on it after I came back from the sea, for fear that it would be bumped into or damaged by others.

Many of the machines on the boat were modified by me, so I guarantee you will be able to use them easily.

All the parts are waterproof and rust-proof. When I got the new boat, I painted it all myself. Don't look at the boat as half-new now, but it is actually in very good condition.

Come and pick up the boat in a few days, and I will inspect it for you and repaint it. I guarantee it will be as good as new."

Lin Wanxia couldn't help but complain: "You act like a rich woman selling melons, which makes me feel that this boat is not worth buying." Her

eager attitude didn't sound like she was willing to lose money, but rather as if the boat had some hidden problem.

Chen Bin: "..."

He looked at Jiang Sinian resentfully, and signaled with his eyes: "Take care of your wife."

Jiang Sinian smiled, raised his other hand and showed the wine he was holding, "Have a couple of drinks?"

***

waited for Chen Bin to go home and change clothes, and the three of them found a hotel on the island.

In 1982, the consumption level of the island city was limited, and the so-called hotels were not necessarily as luxurious as the roadside stalls of the New Century.

It was just a square bungalow with no decoration to speak of, just a large hall with several square tables and long benches.

After ordering the dishes, Chen Bin asked Lin Wanxia, ​​"Sister-in-law, why did you send the money in advance? Aren't you afraid that I won't acknowledge it?"

When his mother told him about it when he got home, he thought it was sent today, but his mother said it was sent a week ago.

"Can you do it?" Lin Wanxia asked him with her eyes wide open.

He couldn't.

Lin Wanxia smiled, "That's all."

Chen Bin: "..."

He waved his hands, "Okay, how about you drive the boat back after we finish our meal?"

So impatient? !

Lin Wanxia shook her head, "No hurry. I need you to refurbish it before I can drive it."

"Then you..." Chen Bin shut up.

"It's because of Zhao Tiezhu." Jiang Sinian said, "I want your sister-in-law to come back to the compound with me for the New Year. I'm worried about leaving the boat at the Hongguang pier."

"Got it! Sister-in-law, don't worry. I'll make sure the boat is in good condition before you come back!"

Lin Wanxia raised her glass, "Thank you!"

***

After the boat matters were settled, Lin Wanxia followed Jiang Sinian to the compound in the afternoon.

In fact, there was still about a month before the New Year.

The New Year atmosphere in 1982 was still too strong, and many people who had been traveling far away began to move forward a month in advance.

For example, the fishermen who went out to sea all returned home.

The mines also stopped working early to allow the workers from far away to go home for the New Year.

Logically, Lin Wanxia and Jiang Sinian were not in such a hurry.

It would be the same if Lin Wanxia brought Xingxing back to the compound as the New Year was approaching.

However, since they still had to get the marriage certificate and prepare several tables of banquets, they had to go to the compound in advance to prepare.

Before Lin Wanxia said anything, Xingxing pouted, hugged her arms in front of her chest, looked at Lin Wanxia and snorted, then looked at Jiang Sinian and snorted again.

Jiang Sinian said, "Hey," What's wrong with you? Do you want a beating?"

Xingxing's fear of Jiang Sinian was deep in her bones, and she subconsciously loosened her arms and hid behind Lin Wanxia.

Probably feeling safe, she stuck her head out and stuck out her tongue at Jiang Sinian, challenging Jiang Sinian, "I have a mother now! I'm not afraid of you."

Jiang Sinian: "..."

He raised his eyelids and glanced at Lin Wanxia, ​​but didn't say anything.

Lin Wanxia pulled Xingxing out from behind her, and took his hand to walk towards the family compound, "Whether you are afraid of your father or not has nothing to do with whether you have a mother or not. Also, it's wrong to beat children, but it's also wrong for you to treat your father like this..."

Jiang Sinian listened to Lin Wanxia's nagging education of Xingxing, and the corners of his lips rose slightly.

It seems that starting a family is not entirely a bad thing for children.

Of course, this person is Lin Wanxia's words.

In fact, he did think about getting married at first.

Whether it was the sister-in-law in the compound or other acquaintances, when introducing the target, they all advised him to send Xingxing away.

This is someone who knows Xingxing's background.

Those who don’t know, when they hear that he is with a child, just don’t think anything.

After that, he completely gave up the idea of ​​looking for another one.

Although in the end there were still a few people who said they didn't care that he had a child, but he was also afraid that Xingxing would be bullied.

His profession destined him to be an unqualified husband, and he was not qualified to ask others to be a qualified stepmother.

Who knew that by some strange coincidence, he still came to the step of getting married.

It feels... not bad!

***

Fortunately, I returned to the family compound early, otherwise I wouldn't be able to dry the quilt after the sun went down.

The quilt on the bed was a little damp because no one had lived there for a long time.

Lin Wanxia hung the quilt on the low wall in the corridor.

When she came here before, she saw that everyone was drying their quilts in this way.

Thinking that she would be living here for more than a month in the future, Lin Wanxia simply went all out and did a big cleaning.

Anyway, the room in the family compound is not big.

Jiang Sinian went to the office building to report the situation, and Lin Wanxia only caught a small cub, Xingxing.

The mother and son cleaned the room inside and out and rearranged it.

The furniture was still the same, but the positions of the furniture were redistributed, and the overall space looked a lot bigger.

When Jiang Sinian came back, the house was brand new.

He was stunned for a moment when he entered the door, then stepped out and looked up at the house number, making sure that he was in the right place before walking back in.

He said to the mother and son who were lying on the bed and seemed to be asleep: "Thank you for your hard work! What do you want to eat tonight? I'll cook."

Lin Wanxia waved her hand, "Let's talk about cooking later, you can bring back the quilt that is drying in the corridor first."

Jiang Sinian turned his head, and the corridor outside the living room was empty.
