10. Family affairs
Lin He was originally brilliant, Xie Wan's beautiful eyes were like autumn water, how could he not know the girl's mind that wanted to speak and stopped?
Lin He does have a good impression of this talented and good-looking woman, but it is far from the level of liking, not to mention that he is hateful, and it is a bit extravagant to talk about the relationship between children and daughters at this time.
Lin He sighed and looked into the distance.
At this time, the clouds have disappeared and the rain has disappeared, the color is bright, and the long smoke on the lake is empty, and it is as clear as washing. Looking into the distance, you can see the floating light leaping gold, sparkling. Luoxia and sand gulls fly together, and the spring water is the same color as the sky.
Lin He walked by the lake, watching this beautiful scenery, his heart suddenly felt relaxed and happy, and he couldn't help but look up to the sky and howl.
After the roar, Lin He's mood relaxed, and all the troubles seemed to disappear.
When the surrounding tourists saw Lin He's abnormal behavior, they all looked at him strangely, muttering "hillbilly" in their mouths.
Lin He turned a deaf ear, lifted the empty basket on his shoulder, and strode towards Linjia Village.
……
Lin He's foot strength was amazing, and when he returned to Linjia Village, the sunset on the horizon had not yet set, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then walked into the village unhurriedly.
"Brother Lin, are you back?"
"Little brother, I came back quite early today."
"Chang Geng, why did you come back with an empty basket?"
……
The people in the village were still so enthusiastic, and Lin He responded with a smile one by one.
Empty baskets? Oops! Lin He's face became a little stiff.
"I forgot about it, and I will definitely be scolded by my father again when I go back." Lin He rubbed his forehead, thinking of his father's serious face, his face was a little depressed, and he didn't know what to do.
While thinking about it, Lin He suddenly saw a familiar figure - Zhang Yuanzheng was sitting alone on an abandoned tile roof, watching the sunset in the distance. Perhaps thinking about something, his gaze was a little glazed.
What is this kid doing here? Lin He looked at Zhang Yuan, touched his chin, and had a plan in his heart.
He got up, jumped lightly, jumped on the roof more than two meters high, crept behind Zhang Yuan, slapped him on the shoulder, and shouted: "Boy, what do you want!" ”
The sudden sound frightened Zhang Yuan's soles slipped and almost fell off the ridge of the roof!
Lin He's eyes were quick, he reached out and grabbed his collar, lifting him up in the air like a chicken.
Zhang Yuan's face turned pale with fright, and when he found out that it was Lin He, he patted his chest in horror and scolded angrily: "Nong wants to scare people to death!" ”
Lin He smiled: "Don't you know if you are scared?" Just scare a few more times. ”
"Humph!" Zhang Yuan snorted coldly and ignored him, obviously still angry.
Lin He sat beside him and got straight to the point: "Zhang Yuan, I'm going to your house later." ”
"To my house?" Zhang Yuan turned his head and glared at Lin Daodao: "Not welcome!" ”
Lin He smiled: "Still angry? Next time I'll be lighter. ”
"And next time!?" Zhang Yuan almost jumped to his feet.
"Go to your house, I have something to do!"
"What's so urgent?"
"I'm going to your house to borrow some food. I can't eat when it's late! Lin He quipped.
Zhang Yuan wrinkled his little face, only then did he notice his ragged clothes, and asked in surprise, "Didn't Uncle Lin Yu say that you went to buy vegetables?" What about the dish? How did you get it like this? ”
"Don't ask so much, little ones." Lin He rubbed his head and said.
Zhang Yuan pouted and said, "I'm thirteen!" It's not a kid anymore! ”
"Alright, big boy, take me to your house." Lin He grabbed his arm and jumped off the roof.
"Ahh Zhang Yuan didn't pay attention for a while, his frightened heart jumped out, even if he fell to the ground safely, his legs were still a little weak, if it weren't for Lin He dragging him, I'm afraid he wouldn't even be able to stand steadily.
"Dalang! You ......" Zhang Yuan glared at him angrily.
"Let's go!" Seeing that the sunset was about to set and the bright moon loomed in the east, Lin He was afraid that his father would be in a hurry, so he hurriedly grabbed his arm and walked briskly towards Zhang Yuan's house.
"No, it's not polite!" Zhang Yuan stopped, his little face frowned slightly, and his little head shook.
"What is inconsequential! Why is it not polite to go to your house? Lin He rolled his eyes and forcibly dragged Zhang Yuan forward.
Zhang Yuan shook his head and shook his head, muttering things like "Yu Li is not in order" and "The rules cannot be broken", Lin He didn't know what medicine Zhang Yuan had taken wrong today, so he simply ignored him, and pulled him towards Zhang's house with his head bored.
Zhang Yuan's family is a family with a good standard of living in the village.
When the two arrived at Zhang's house, Zhang Yuan's sister Zhang Xiaodie was holding a bowl of bran rice to feed the chickens and ducks.
Zhang Xiaodie is about fifteen years old, her face is green and delicate, although her appearance is not as good as Xie Wan's, but she also belongs to the small jasper type, her soft hair is combed with a simple cloud sideburns, tied up with a hairpin, wearing a linen blouse and a blue skirt, looking simple and beautiful.
Zhang Xiaodie's action of feeding the chickens is a bit mechanical, she should be thinking about something, her expression is shy for a while, and she smirks for a while.
The chickens and ducks on the ground seemed to see their owners so generous for the first time, and they kept pecking at the ground, while excitedly "cooing" and "quacking".
"Fluttershy, how are you busy?" Lin He walked into Zhang's house and greeted Zhang Xiaodie with a smile.
Zhang Xiaodie and Lin He can be regarded as childhood sweethearts, and the two have grown up together since childhood. Zhang Xiaodie has liked to stick to Lin He since she was a child, not only because Lin He will take care of her, but also because Lin He will often tell her some stories, such as "Snow White", "The Frog Prince" and the like. So much so that Zhang Tong and his wife often ridiculed and asked Zhang Xiaodie to marry Lin He.
Zhang Xiaodie heard the greeting, turned her head, and when she saw Lin He's figure, she suddenly called out a "yah", and her face instantly turned red like a boiled crab. She didn't respond to anything, and hurriedly put down the bowl full of chaff and ran towards the house.
Am I so scary? Lin He looked at her back strangely, a little confused.
Seeing their daughter running into the house with her face covered and asking her without answering anything, Zhang Tong and his wife thought something had happened, and hurriedly walked out of the house, and then found Lin He in the yard with a blank face.
"It's Brother Lin'er here!" Zhang Tong said with a smile on his face.
Lin He hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Uncle Zhang, Aunt Lin." ”
Aunt Lin looked at Lin He, the more she looked at it, the more satisfied she became, she stepped forward and said enthusiastically: "Brother Lin, you're welcome, come in." ”
Lin He didn't want to bother more, but he was really embarrassed by the kindness of Zhang Tong and his wife, so he had to touch his nose helplessly, "Since that's the case, then bother." ”
After entering the door, Aunt Lin served tea and poured water, as if she wanted to keep him for dinner, Lin He hurriedly shirked it and said her purpose by the way.
Zhang Tong and his wife naturally had no opinion, and used the family's vegetables to fill Lin He's basket to the brim, and put a pound of fresh pork in it.
For Zhang Tong and his wife, who were a little overly enthusiastic, Lin He was quite uncomfortable and restless in Zhang's house. After chatting for about a quarter of an hour, Lin He hurriedly found an excuse and fled.
"This kid is still too shy." Zhang Tong looked at Lin He's distant back and shook his head.
Aunt Lin glanced at him disdainfully, and sneered: "Much stronger than you back then, you were ...... back then"
"Ahem, the baby is still there." Zhang Tong hurriedly coughed and interrupted Aunt Lin in embarrassment.
Aunt Lin snorted coldly and went into the kitchen to clean up dinner.
Zhang Xiaodie, who was hiding in the boudoir, heard the sound of Lin He leaving, like a deer's heart slowly stopped. She shyly walked to the bronze mirror on the dresser, staring blankly at herself in the mirror, her face flushed, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
……
The willow tops on the moon, the silver light sprinkled all over the sky.
Stepping on the bright moonlight, Lin He returned home.
"Dad, I'm back." After Lin He shouted, before his father could reply, he put down the basket and hurriedly walked into the bath room next door, took a bath, changed into clean clothes, and then tiptoed back to the main room.
When Lin Yu saw Lin He enter the door, he immediately put down the pen in his hand and asked dissatisfiedly, "Why did you come back so late!" ”
"I met an acquaintance in San'in, and he had to drag me to eat and drink, so I wasted my time." Lin He scratched his head and lied.
"Well, sit down, I have something to tell you."
Lin Yu didn't pursue this issue, but it made Lin He breathe a sigh of relief.
He sat on the chair next to Lin Yu and said with a smile: "Dad, it's good if you have something to say no, there are only two people in the family, why do you want to be so formal." ”
"Don't be hippie with me, sit down!" Lin Yu glared at him and scolded.
The last time Lin Yu spoke to him so formally was three years ago, that is, before Lin He enlisted in the army.
Is there anything important? Lin He's heart froze slightly, and he hurriedly sat upright.
Lin Yu pondered for a moment, as if he was organizing his language, and after more than a dozen breaths, he finally spoke: "Chang Geng, I have found a family business for you." ”
"What !!" Lin He's face was full of shock, and he couldn't sit still.
