Lin Wanbai and the others had a meal, so they went to the backyard to find the old man.

The old man was sitting alone in the courtyard, with a pot of tea on the table next to him, steaming hot. He didn't wear much, only a blanket was covered on his leg, fortunately Lin Wanbai was prepared, knowing that he must not be wearing much, he went to the room to get a piece of clothing before coming.

As she walked over, the old man had his eyes closed, and he didn't seem to hear her footsteps.

Against the background of the surrounding snow, Lin Zhaowei's face looked pale at this time, and his lips were also very light, Lin Wanbai wiped his hand on his lap, it was very cold, and it was useless to put the hand warmer on the table next to him.

Lin Wanbai put his clothes on him, and then, Lin Zhaowei suddenly woke up.

"Xiaobai. ”

"You're not cold, are you? ”

"I just squinted for a while and didn't sleep. ”

"I look like I'm sleeping soundly, I've been here for a while, and you don't even notice it. ”

As he spoke, two servants moved chairs over, followed by Fu Zhenxing.

The servant put down the table and chairs, and after a while, brought some snacks and fruits, and made a special trip to set a stove for them and boil tea.

These were all arranged by Fu Zhenxing later.

The two of them went their separate ways after eating, and he was thoughtful.

There are a lot of plums planted in this yard, and a little red is revealed in the snow-white, which is very beautiful.

Lin Wanbai was afraid of the cold, even if the stove was placed in front of her, she still felt cold, there was a cold wind everywhere, and the snot came out quickly.

Lin Zhaowei looked at her like this, and said with a smile: "If you are so afraid of the cold, go back to the room and stay, we will not go out on the first day of the new year, we can sleep as long as we want, and if you are hungry, let the maid make some food and send it to the room, don't freeze here." I'll sit for a while and go back. ”

"Then wait for you to go back together, I'm not cold, but the wind is not very comfortable on my face. ”

She pulled her scarf up to cover half of her face, "It's much better." ”

Seeing that she insisted, Lin Zhaowei let her go, and only asked people to add a few more heaters, but fortunately, it would be warmer to move a charcoal basin over.

Lin Wanbai was surrounded by a stove, and the charcoal basin was placed in front of her, so it was really warm. When her body is warm, she is in the mood to eat the things on the table, and she still eats melon seeds and fruits.

The mouth does not stop for a moment.

When she was about to take the third orange, Fu Jixing took her hand and said, "Eat less raw and cold." ”

"I'm not cold right now. ”

"I'll eat it later. You said before that you had no appetite for the past two days, but you had a great appetite for snacks. ”

She stuck out her tongue and silently withdrew her hand, but she did not give up the desire to eat the third orange, and wanted to take it while he was not paying attention, but after three attempts, he was able to catch her accurately each time, as if he were staring at her all the time.

Lin Wanbai said: "Then otherwise, if you set it aside, I will eat one petal, and eat all the others, can you?"

"Can't stand it like that?"

"I can't stand it. ”

"Okay. Fu Zhenxing peeled an orange according to what she said, and really only gave her one petal.

Lin Wanbai ate quickly.

Fu Shixing ate slowly, so she begged for another piece.

In this way, she also ate two more petals.

Lin Zhaowei didn't make a sound, only quietly observed the interaction between the two people, the corners of his mouth flashed with a nonchalant smile, and after his eyes stayed on Fu Jixing's body for a while, he turned his gaze away and stopped paying attention to them.

Later, Lin Zhaowei and Fu played a game of chess.

Lin Wanbai sat next to him and watched the battle.

Lin Zhaowei generally plays chess very steadily, and he is not particularly aggressive, and he looks at the big picture at every move.

But today, his path is a little different, and he is particularly savage, as if he wants to eat the person in front of him in one bite.

On the contrary, it is Fu Xingxing, steady and steady, one advance and one retreat, and there is a degree of relaxation.

The chess game looks at people, Lin Zhaowei and Fu Shixing don't play chess much, but they have different feelings every time.

When he played chess with him for the first time, he could feel the suppressed ambition in Fu Zhenxing's heart, vigorously coming out, and having the intention of winning. The second time I played chess with him, I was much calmer, more restrained than the first time, and I hid it deeply.

Now this time, it's mild and calm.

Indeed, there is a kind of lightness that lets go of everything.

In the end, Fu took a wrong step and lost.

When he fell, Lin Wanbai subconsciously made a sound and stepped on him, but he fell too fast, and after stepping on it, the chess pieces also fell.

"How are you going to get down?"

Lin Zhaowei smiled and said, "Deliberately let me?"

Fu Shixing shook his head, "This is not a let, this is a fulfillment." ”

The two glanced at each other, Lin Zhaowei chuckled, took back the chess pieces, and said, "Come again." ”

After that, Lin Zhaowei recovered to the previous level, the two came and went, this chess game was particularly interesting, and it took a long time to play a game.

The two really seem to be just fighting, not competing for a win or a loss.

At two or three o'clock, the sun came out, and the sunlight fell through the layers of clouds and mist throughout the courtyard, which seemed to be more vigorous.

After that, Lin Zhouye and Lin Jingyu came over front and back.

There were more people chatting with Lin Wanbai eating melon seeds.

On this day, the family really stayed at home all day, and no one went out.

Originally, the town was going to sing, but the weather canceled it, and the whole town was quiet and peaceful.

The matter of ancestor worship is arranged on the second day of the new year.

Before coming, Lin Zhaowei didn't arrange where to go, got up early in the morning, they first went to the mountain, and then the ancestral hall, and when everyone else didn't get up, they finished everything in a low-key manner.

After the ancestor worship ended, Lin Zhaowei stayed alone in the ancestral hall for a while.

Grandma's tablet is also pressed here.

When people get old, they want to return to their roots.

The old man has been crawling and rolling in the mall all his life, and when he came back here, he was lazy for a while.

Originally, the third year of junior high school was going back, but he didn't want to leave for a while.

So he stayed for another day, and on the fourth day of junior high school, he asked them to go back first, and he stayed for a few more days.

Although Fu Jixing has no status in the Fu family, he can celebrate the New Year and the festival, and he must have the number of etiquette. Fu Changjun waited for them to go back.

Lin Jingyu said: "You two go first, and Songyuan and I will stay here with the old man for a few more days." ”

That's all there is to it.

On the fourth day of junior high school, Lin Wanbai and Fu Jixing packed their luggage and returned to Beicheng first.

On the day they returned, they went to Sibei and stayed for the time being.

This year can be regarded as a peaceful and stable life.

Everyone was happy, even Jiang Shuzhi pretended to be exceptionally good, as if she really let go of her prejudices, and she was very caring for Fu Shixing.

On the evening of the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Lin Zhouye came to Sibei for dinner.

He had just returned from Longning Prefecture, and it was three o'clock in the afternoon when he got off the plane, so he went home and simply packed up and went to Sibei.

Gifts or something, they have been prepared before the New Year.

This time, Lin Wanbai didn't avoid it, of course she couldn't avoid it, Jiang Shuzhi dragged her, and she didn't plan to let go at all, so she couldn't even avoid it.

Jiang Shuzhi smiled with a smile in her eyes and said, "It's not that a family doesn't enter the door, when Miao Miao marries, our two families will really be close to each other." When Lao Lin comes back, the two of us will have to sit down and have a meal together. It's been a long time since we've eaten together. ”

Fu Miao sat beside Lin Zhouye, looking shy, like a budding girl.

All this in front of him immediately pulled Lin Wanbai back to reality. Those illusions of happiness, like bubbles, burst at the touch of a button.

Waiting for Fu Miao to marry into the Lin family, where will there be a stable and happy life.

Everyone here is laughing, but everyone's mind is different.

Lin Wanbai felt irritable, and the good mood of the past few days was falling apart at this moment. She has been in a mood swing lately, and she is easily enlarged and moody.

Her smile was almost unbearable, and she was not in the mood to eat this meal.

She was really uncomfortable, and when she was about to start eating, she deliberately retched for a while, then held her forehead and said, "Grandma, I'm a little uncomfortable, I want to go back to the room to rest for a while, you eat first, don't keep it for me." ”

Fu Jixing held him up.

Jiang Shuzhi was not happy when she saw her dead look, but she still showed a concerned expression on her face, "What's the matter?"

"Maybe I had a cold, and I was a little uncomfortable when I woke up in the morning. I won't be able to eat this time, and I'm going to vomit after a while, and it will affect your eating, so I'll just go to the room and rest. Anyway, the guest is an uncle, so he should be considerate of me. She looked at Lin Zhouye, resentful.

Of course he will be considerate, and he can be considerate of whatever she does.

Lin Zhouye nodded, "If you don't feel well, go and rest, don't hold on." ”

Lin Wanbai smiled, "Thank you, uncle." ”

Fu Zhenxing said: "I will accompany Xiaobai back to the room." ”

Jiang Shuzhi nodded, "You take good care of it, if you need anything, just tell Xiao Song, or tell any of the maids." You don't have a good idea yourself, but you can't do it. ”

"Yes. ”

Then, Fu Zhenxing took Lin Wanbai back to the room.

Lin Wanbai pretended all the way, and after entering the door, Granny Song made all kinds of dots, and when she went out, Lin Wanbai got up from the bed, looked out, and glanced at Fu Jixing.

"Everyone is gone, and there's no one outside. ”

"Hmph, who wants to eat with them, when I see Fu Miao's appearance, I am about to vomit, where can I still eat. She rolled her eyes, and couldn't help the anger she had, "It seems that all the mood she has saved in the past few days has been ruined for her, Lin Zhouye is really hateful, and he doesn't know how to say hello to me in advance, if he says it in advance, let's just find a few bites, and we don't have to stay here to see her smug face." ”

"Okay, why be so angry, she just wants you to be angry, and the more you do this, the happier and prouder she becomes. ”

Lin Wanbai pursed her lips, "That's right, but I just can't control my temper." Now I can imagine how uncomfortable I will be when she marries into the Lin family. No matter what Lin Zhouye's plan is, I'm not happy. ”

"Originally, our family could be happy, but now I want to insert a mouse droppings, and I'm not happy. ”

"We'll go abroad then. ”

"But I'm not cutting off contact with my family, even if we emigrate, we still have to come and go. My grandfather is not in good health now, and there is no way I won't come back. “

"What's wrong with Grandpa?"

Lin Wanbai hasn't told him about this yet.

She sighed, "There's a heart problem and you need surgery, but it's risky, and you can't be sure it's 100% okay." My grandfather is also very old, and I don't think he wants to have this surgery. ”

"But it's normal, when you're old, you have to have such a big operation, and no one else has the courage to do it. Even doctors can't guarantee 100% success, so why bother. If it were me, I wouldn't dare, for fear that after I went up, I wouldn't be able to get down. ”

The smile on Lin Wanbai's face was a little lighter.

"After thinking about it, I still like architecture, and according to my resume, it shouldn't be difficult to find a job. Didn't we say we were going to Grindel? But considering that we are still young, we might as well go to New City, I have a few friends over there, and I don't know each other well, so it's important to have more friends. ”

Fu Zhenxing didn't have any opinion on this, "Anyway, there is still time, you can take another look and think clearly before deciding." ”

Lin Wanbai nodded, and after being silent for a while, he diverted the topic and talked about something else.

After a while, Granny Song came in with dinner for two, "The old lady is afraid that the two of you will be hungry, so I will send some food first, no matter how uncomfortable your body is, you still have to eat some food." I asked the kitchen to remake a little light meal, so let's eat some of it. ”

Granny Song put the food on the table, and Fu Zhenxing wanted to get up, but was pressed by Lin Wanbai to prevent him from moving.

His legs and feet are inconvenient, and others should understand.

"Thank you, Granny Song. ”

"You're welcome, that's what I'm supposed to do. Would you like me to help me with that?" she stood still.

"No, I can get up on my own. ”

"Okay, then I'll go out first, and I'll just tell me if there's anything. ”

"Okay. ”

Granny Song walked to the door, seemed to think of something and stopped, turned her head to look at Lin Wanbai, and asked, "The old lady asked me to ask, will you still come out in a while?" ”

"Nope. My uncle loves me very much, and he won't force me to go out to socialize when he knows I'm not feeling well. ”

"Okay, then I got it. ”

With that, she went out.

This dish really took a lot of thought, Lin Wanbai was already hungry, and as soon as the person left, she got off the bed and helped Fu Shixing to eat happily.

It's just lighter, tasteless.

Lin Wanbai would especially want to eat something heavy, and the whole person was itchy when she thought about it, if it weren't for Fu Jixing's legs and feet now, she would definitely pull him out and find a Sichuan restaurant on the street.

……

Inside the restaurant.

Lin Zhouye's demeanor is generous, after all, he is a child brought out by Lin Zhaowei himself, naturally he has a little bit of Lin Zhaowei's demeanor, knowledgeable, he can pick up any topic, and there is some humor.

It's not a one-eyed person.

Fu Miao only looked at his hand and felt full of joy.

She really likes Lin Zhouye, since junior high school, he gave Lin Wanbai clothes, and when she saw him for the first time, she was immediately attracted by him.

In the third year of junior high school, when Lin Wanbai lived in the school for a period of time, Lin Zhouye came a little more frequently, and sent this to her and that.

She deeply remembered that she wanted to chase him impulsively because of one of his looks.

That time it cooled down, and he came to deliver clothes.

Lin Wanbai went out, and the two of them stood in front of the window of the corridor, the winter sun was shining golden, sprinkling on the two of them.

Lin Zhouye Xu was telling her something, pointed to her clothes, and said very seriously.

At that time, Fu Miao sat by the window and watched secretly, without taking his eyes off for a moment. He still remembers that he was wearing sportswear, with red lips and white teeth, and he was very creamy.

She fantasized countless times that the person standing in front of him was how good she should be, then she would definitely fly happily.

Lin Zhouye raised his eyes, as if he was looking this way.

She was startled, her heart was beating fast, but she didn't bother to look away, he just glanced casually and quickly moved away. But she didn't calm down for a long time, and something seemed to swarm out of her chest.

She must be his girlfriend. At that moment, all she had in her head was that sentence.

Later, she succeeded with some means, but the time the two were together was too short, she was sent abroad after only a year and a half of high school, and at first there was some contact, and then he completely ignored her.

However, she was also busy with her studies at that time, so she devoted all her attention to her studies, so she didn't worry about it anymore.

Now that I'm back, I still feel the same way about him.

And this time, she is going to marry him, become his wife, and be with him forever.

Of course, there are some other thoughts mixed in this relationship.

But in any case, it's a happy thing.

For Lin Zhouye's son-in-law, Fu Yonghui and Yuan Yujun are very satisfied, except for his poor background, all other aspects are impeccable. However, there is nothing to pick about in his background, everyone knows that he is the quasi-heir of the Lin family, and now half of the Lin family is already in his hands.

Everyone knows that Lin Zhaowei has high hopes for him and raises him as his own son.

In this future, Fu Miao will be the wife of the chairman of the Lin family.

Thinking of this, Yuan Yujun couldn't hide a smile on his face, his son and daughter are all promising, and he is naturally very happy to be a parent.

It's just that some people are happy and some are worried.

Fu Yongyi couldn't laugh a little, he only drank bitterly, he was afraid that no one would talk to him, and after the whole meal, they were just transparent people and foils. Ever, in this family, he Fu Yongyi is a foil.

The daughter-in-law is not as good as the daughter-in-law, and the son is not as good as the others.

Now that his daughter's husband is so good, he really can't calm down.

He envies, envy, and hates.

After the meal, Fu Yongyi found an excuse to go back to the room.

Tang Qiong glanced at him, with disgust in his eyes, and did not go back with him, but stayed in the living room decently.

Lin Zhouye sat until nine o'clock before leaving, and went to Lin Wanbai's room to see her.

Seeing that she was okay and went back, Fu Miao personally sent him to the door, she didn't let others follow, just the two of them.

She put her hands behind her back and followed closely by his side, saying, "Actually, I don't think we need to get engaged, let's just get married." I discussed it with my grandmother, and after analysis, in fact, you are not young, it is a good time to get married, and the engagement is just a ceremony, so I thought it would be better for us to get married directly and make the wedding a little grander. Of course, if you like to keep a low profile, it's okay, but if you get married once in your life, I think you can be grander. ”

Lin Zhouye stopped, there was a row of red lanterns hanging on the corridor, the light was dim, and it was difficult to see the expression on his face clearly. He tilted his head slightly, glanced at her, and said, "I'm not going to make a big deal, and then the two families will sit down for a meal." ”

"How can this work? ”

"The current situation of the Fu family is not suitable for big operations, you seem to have forgotten that your family officials are not entangled, and there is nothing wrong with being able to keep a low profile as low as possible. ”

Fu Miao was almost bluffed, and thought about it, "No, it's your Lin family who marries a daughter-in-law, our Fu family needs to keep a low profile, but your Lin family doesn't need it." I don't want to be too grand, just like Lin Wanbai did back then. ”

"Marriage is a big event, and it is impossible not to have a wedding. Even if I agreed, my grandmother couldn't. We are all characters with heads and faces, and if I don't have a wedding, the people around me will laugh at me. She knew in her heart that Lin Zhouye was not willing to marry her, and she was just for Lin Wanbai.

She tries not to let herself think like this, she always likes to deceive herself, thinking that there must be love between the two of them.

But now seeing Lin Zhouye's attitude, she felt very uncomfortable and very unhappy.

"Lin Zhouye, you have to figure it out, when the two of us get married, it shouldn't be me listening to you, but you listening to me. I can do whatever I want!

She pressed her throat, the hand hanging by her side clenched into a fist, trying to control her emotions, she took a breath, didn't look at him, and said coldly: "Anyway, before May 1st this year, I will marry into the Lin family." I think you can start preparing for the wedding, it's okay to keep a low profile, let's not do it in the North City, we go abroad, to Bali, to the Maldives, anywhere. As long as you have the heart, you can give me a perfect wedding. ”

Lin Zhouye didn't speak, and there was no expression on his face, just looked at her lightly.

The more he was like this, the more Fu Miao seemed to have no confidence, she gritted her teeth, and after a while, she softened her attitude, hugged him at once, put her head on his chest, and said: "Lin Zhouye, I have always liked you very much, you know! I love you too much, I want to be with you too much, I will be like this." I just want a wedding, is it hard?"

She hugged him tightly and squeezed in his arms, "Is it difficult?"

Lin Zhouye frowned slightly, raised his hand to press her shoulder, and didn't bother to say more to her, "It's not difficult." ”

With just these two words, Fu Miao smiled happily, she let go of her hand, and when Lin Zhouye was defenseless, she suddenly leaned up, originally wanting to kiss him on the mouth, but fortunately, he reacted quickly, and immediately turned his head sideways, and the kiss fell on his cheek.

Fu Miao was not annoyed, reached out to hold his face, forced him to face himself, and said with a smile: "Don't be shy, we are all about to become husband and wife, kiss it." ”

The disgust in Lin Zhouye's eyes couldn't be hidden, he pursed his lips, and in the blink of an eye, Fu Miao was pushed away, and he straightened his clothes, "Don't take an inch." ”

"I command you, kiss me. She glared, finally unable to control herself, and said viciously.

Lin Zhouye glanced at her, smiled coldly, didn't intend to ignore her, turned around and walked out.

Fu Miao stood differently, annoyed and angry, "Lin Zhouye, you stop for me! Have you forgotten what I am holding in my hand! Now you are begging me, not me! You have to do whatever I want you to do! Otherwise, your Xiaobai will suffer!"

He didn't stop.

"Don't think I don't dare! I'll send it out now, I want everyone to see what kind of slut Lin Wanbai is! A slutty woman like her, where is my brother her opponent, she has been bad at learning in junior high school, and she likes men so much, I'm afraid it's addictive! Her commotionous appearance should really let everyone see! Let everyone know how messy our No. 1 lady in Beicheng is in private!"

Finally, Lin Zhouye's steps stopped.

He took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled. Turning his head, he looked at the woman standing there, smug.

After a moment, he turned and walked towards her.

Fu Miao raised her chin, just smug, "I know ...... coming back"

Before the whole sentence was finished, Lin Zhouye slapped him with a backhand.

He hit hard, leaving no room for her to be a woman.

Fu Miao was beaten and fell to the ground, and there was a huge buzzing sound in his ears, and even his eyes were dark.

She didn't react for a moment, only to feel a fishy smell begin to fill her mouth.

The next moment, there was a sharp pain in the back of her hand, and she subconsciously withdrew her hand, the other party's strength was obviously greater than hers, and she couldn't pull it back.

She felt like the bones of her hands were going to be crushed.

She raised her head and looked at Lin Zhouye viciously, "You have a kind! Don't regret it!"

The corners of his mouth twitched, he pulled his tie, bent over and pinched her face, his hand was so strong that her whole face was almost deformed, "Don't challenge my bottom line, I'm afraid you can't afford it." Since you know that I can compromise and marry you for Xiaobai, you should also know that I can also let you die without a place to bury for Xiaobai. If you dare to say a word to her again, watch your tongue. ”

Fu Miao's whole person trembled unconsciously, she controlled the fear born in her heart, she told herself, he didn't dare, he wouldn't.

The people educated by Lin Zhaowei will never do these things.

His gaze swept around, "Be my wife or be ......," he paused.

Fu Miao's heart was beating fast, and she stumbled and asked, "Or what?"

His gaze retracted and landed on her face, "Death or death." ”

"You, you don't dare!"

"You see if I dare. ”

"You won't!"

He laughed, too lazy to say anything meaningless to her.

He let go of his hand and took a step back, turning to a gentle smile as he held out his hand to her, "Get up." ”

She gritted her teeth and stared at his hand, full of anger, but in the end, she still put her hand in his palm and stood up with strength.

Lin Zhouye threw the scarf in his hand on her face, "Come back with me." ”

She didn't say anything, but she followed him anyway.

Lin Zhouye left her to his secretary An Ning, and went back to Pujiang by himself.

……

Lin Zhaowei did not return to Beicheng until the first lunar month passed.

These days, Lin Jingyu has been with her, and all the originally arranged three-day trips have been canceled.

After the first month, the plaster cast on Fu Jixing's feet can be removed, and after a few days of rehabilitation in the hospital, he can walk normally, there is nothing abnormal, but there may be a little problem with running and jumping in the future, but there is no major problem, and everything else is recovering very well.

The doctor praised Lin Wanbai for being a good wife, and she was able to recover so quickly and so well, all because of her.

Lin Wanbai was very happy, went home happily, and said that he would personally stew supplements for him, and he would stew every day, and he must bring his body back.

During the Lantern Festival, Jiang Shuzhi invited Lin Zhaowei's family to have dinner at the Xidun Hotel.

Lin Zhaowei responded.

Her reasons are high-sounding, and there is no reason to refuse.

After all, Xiaobai is married to Fu Zhenxing, and now she is also the daughter-in-law of the Fu family, so everyone is a family, and Lin Zhouye and Fu Miao have already received certificates, this relationship between relatives and relatives, it is normal to spend the Lantern Festival together.

Lin Zhaowei returned to the hall, bent down and sat down, put his mobile phone on the coffee table, took a sip of tea, and then looked at Lin Zhouye, "Do you want to explain, why did you and Fu Miao get the certificate?"
