Chapter Eighty-Eight: Trust
Lin An looked at Xu Wanning's fried appearance, and finally did what he had always wanted to do.
He raised his hand and gently patted the dull hair on Xu Wanning's head that had been curled up because of anger.
"I knew that it would not affect the recovery of my wounds. ”
Xu Wanning's little face was flushed.
She turned her face away from Lin Anming's flickering gaze, and muttered, "Just talk, what kind of hands do you move." ”
It's embarrassing for people.
Xu Maoning pushed open the door of the ward and came in, and saw such a scene.
He was worried about whether he had come at the wrong time, when he saw that his sister had already walked towards him, and she was very enthusiastic about holding his arm.
"Mao Ning, are you here to find me?"
I have to say yes, to get her out for the time being.
Xu Maoning nodded: "Mom said let me tell you, the captain of the brigade you went to the countryside made several calls to find you today, it should be a very important matter." ”
After Xu Wanning settled down in Beijing, she used the Xu family's landline to call the team headquarters and report to Xu's mother and the two children that they were safe.
So it's not unusual for the captain to find her.
Xu Wanning thought thoughtfully, "The captain is looking for me, it should have something to do with the branch, right?"
Xu Maoning didn't hear her muttering clearly, and asked, "Do you want to go home?" Mom said if you want to call back, the next time you call, she refused. ”
"Return, why don't you go back!"
Xu Wanning's gaze turned to the position of the hospital bed.
Lin An was sitting on the edge of the bed, and when he heard the conversation between the two sisters and brothers, he said understandingly: "You go back, have a good rest tonight, and don't worry about my situation." ”
"I want to ask you, do you want to go home with me?"
"The ugly son-in-law always wants to see the old man. ”
Ugly?
Lin An subconsciously stroked his face with his hand.
During the time he was hospitalized, he had not shaved, and a layer of blue stubble had emerged around his lips.
It must be ugly, right?
"Dad should be home, right?"
"Hmm. Xu Maoning answered, looking at Lin An with burning eyes.
He knew that his father and brother had always felt guilty about Lin Anxin, and when he was in a coma, the two often came to the hospital, but after he woke up, he probably didn't know how to face it, and he only came once on the day he woke up, and after asking a few questions, he never came again.
It's okay for Lin An to go back, and talk about it, how good the family is and how good it is.
After figuring it out, Xu Maoning immediately stepped forward and took the civilian clothes on the bedside table to Lin An: "Brother-in-law, hurry up and change your clothes, let's go home together." ”
If Lin An wanted to refuse, he was blocked back.
A brother-in-law made him feel a fluttering sense of unreality.
So much so that he didn't even remember how he had changed his clothes.
By the time he reacted, he was already sitting on the sofa of the Xu family.
Xu Wanning's mother's house is very large, it is a small villa, and there is a garden outside, but there are no flowers in it, only a few sparse weeds.
The interior of the house is also beautifully decorated, and the sofa he is sitting on looks very expensive and feels good to the touch.
Lin An always felt that he was out of place with such an atmosphere, and he always maintained the same posture, not even daring to breathe too loudly.
Mother Xu sensed Lin An's nervousness, and put the pink teacup with tea poured in front of him: "This is the cup that A-Ning bought before, and no one has used it." ”
"Thank you, Mom. ”
In order to alleviate the embarrassment, Lin An picked up the teacup and drank water, not even noticing the gesture of Xu Mu's stopping.
Until the hot tea burns the tongue.
Xu Wanning quickly handed his handkerchief to his lips, saw him spit out the tea, and asked in a low voice, "Is your tongue okay?"
"It's fine. ”
"Look at you kid, what's the hurry!" Mother Xu smiled: "You first accompany your father and brother to chat, I will prepare dinner, and call your uncle and second uncle's family to come to the house for dinner tonight." ”
"Mom, then I'll call you back first, and I'll help you later. ”
Xu Wanning yelled in the direction of the kitchen, then raised her hand and patted Lin An's shoulder: "Don't worry, my dad and my brother get along very well, you don't have to be nervous." ”
And Xu's father and Xu Maoyan, who are very easy to get along with, are racking their brains to think about the topic at this time.
Xu Maoning looked at the three faces with different appearances and was at the same loss, and took the initiative to pick up the topic.
"Brother-in-law, have you ever thought about letting my sister go back to Beijing?"
Lin An put down the teacup in his hand, put his hands on his knees, and sat a little more upright, before he slowly spoke.
"Yes. I knew that Wanning had always missed her family, but she couldn't come back for many years due to various reasons, so I exchanged my military merits for the opportunity to transfer to the military region. ”
"I know that many people are talking about me behind my back, and my ambition to be promoted is too big, but my original intention has always been just for Wanning's consideration. ”
"If I stay in the Black Province all the time, Wanning will most likely stay in the Black Province with me, even if I go back to Beijing City, it will only be by chance. But if I also come to Beijing, she will have a reason to come to Beijing. ”
Xu Maoning touched his chin, a little skeptical of Lin An's words.
"You were transferred to the Beijing Military Region, really not for yourself?"
Father Xu glanced at his youngest son and took the initiative to speak: "If Lin An has been staying in the Black Province, I am afraid that he has been promoted to battalion commander by now." When he arrived in Beijing, everything had to start all over again, and he didn't know how many years he would have to endure before he could reach the position of battalion commander. ”
Xu Maoning was shocked: "You are only a few years older than me, and you are about to be promoted to battalion commander?"
Listening to his sister, Lin An is currently only twenty-seven or eighteen years old, which is the same age as the fourth brother.
The fourth brother is now the battalion commander, because he has participated in several extremely dangerous missions, as well as the relationship between the family and the family.
Lin An has no background, and he can be promoted to battalion commander at a young age, so it is conceivable that this person is also a ruthless character.
Xu Maoning put away his thoughts about looking down on Lin An.
"Whatever others like to say, let them say yes, you just have a clear conscience. ”
"That's what Dad said. ”
"But I'm talking about it, everything you have has has to be bought by yourself, step by step, and even if I'm in a high position, I can't help you. ”
Lin An bowed: "Don't worry, I will rely on my own ability to let Wanning and the two children live a good life." You can help me transfer to the Beijing Military Region, you have already helped me a lot, and I dare not bother you anymore. You and the fourth brother look at it, I will definitely not embarrass you. ”
Lin An's tone was calm, as if he was explaining something very ordinary.
But the tenacity revealed in his words made Father Xu laugh.
From now on, you will be a member of our Xu family!"
Xu Maoning really wanted to give his dad a slap in the eye.
