Chapter 229: It's Not That Simple
When Lin Manman first came through, Lin Dongye went to the countryside to become an educated youth, and then after so many years, the memory of the original owner was not so clear, if he hadn't reported himself, he really didn't know that he was his cheap second brother.
However, this cheap second brother is also the ancestor of the Lin family, he has been pampered since he was a child, and like Lin Nanye, he never takes the sisters in the family in his eyes, so at this time, Lin Manman doesn't think that they simply come to visit him.
There were tables and chairs in the reception room, and Lin Manman asked them to sit down and talk, and it was inconvenient to take them there if they lived in the same dormitory.
Although my sister usually writes letters to her family, it has been seven years since my sister returned home, and my parents can't rest assured. This year, the factory has an early holiday, and my parents asked us to come over to see my sister. Ma Xiaolan looked at Lin Manman without a trace, and said affectionately.
Lin Manman was wearing a military coat and small leather boots outside, and the whole person was tightly wrapped, but her little face was very beautiful, and her skin was as white and tender as a boiled egg, if she hadn't been brought over by her man, she would definitely not have imagined that this was the daughter of the Lin family, although the Lin family looked good, but it was still far worse than the person in front of her.
She just sat there, didn't talk much, her expression was faint, but she had a sense of style, which made people dare not make a mistake, sure enough, she came out as a soldier, Ma Xiaolan sighed, the sister-in-law who married a soldier and did business in the family was not as good as the one in front of her, but the Lin family was really prosperous and weak, and the daughters raised were better than the other.
Ma Xiaolan then said: "Your second brother and I brought you some hometown specialties, and my mother said that they are all what you like to eat, sticky buns, frozen skin, peanuts and ......."
Lin Manman looked at the bag in her hand, it did contain something, but no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like it's much.
"Manman, don't you have a holiday in your team this year?" Lin Dongye suddenly interrupted Ma Xiaolan's words and asked Lin Manman.
"Let it go."
Lin Dongye's expression eased.
Ma Xiaolan's eyes lit up, "Then since it's a holiday, my sister might as well go home with us, my parents don't know how much to miss you, and when they talk about you, they can't even eat." ”
Lin Manman sighed and said: "It's just that I can't get in the car at this time, second brother and sister-in-law, you don't know, a few days ago, I fell off a cliff in an accident on the way to perform outside, and lay on the bed for more than a month, and today I can get out of bed, the doctor has confessed, I still have to raise for a year and a half, and now even the dance has been temporarily stopped." ”
"How so?" The light in Ma Xiaolan's eyes dimmed, and she looked at Lin Manman's face carefully, and found that people were really a little unpleasant, "Sister, can't you really take the car?" In fact, it is quite convenient to take the train now, buy a sleeper ticket, and you will be home in less than a day. ”
Lin Dongye also glanced at Lin Manman, "I think you're also very good, what's wrong with getting out of the car?" ”
Lin Manman was a little surprised: "Is there something wrong at home?" Do you want me to go back now? ”
Lin Dongye looked a little displeased, "Man Man, how many years have you been out to be a soldier, and you haven't gone home to see it once, have you forgotten this home in your heart?" ”
Lin Manman's expression became even lighter, "Second brother, haven't you heard that there are soldiers who haven't returned home for ten years?" How many years have I been? Those of us who are soldiers, where can I go back if I want? Second brother, when you were an educated youth, you didn't just want to go back, right? Also, saying that I forgot this family, the second brother can't just talk nonsense, it's easy to be chilling, I send money to my family every quarter, and I still keep those remittance slips. ”
Lin Dongye was choked, and his expression became even more unhappy, "Manman, I haven't seen you for a few years, and I'm very articulate." ”
Lin Manman smiled, "Everyone knows these truths. ”
Ma Xiaolan saw that the conversation between the brother and sister was about to be stiff, and hurriedly came out to adjust, "Manman, don't care, your second brother hasn't seen you for too long, and thinking that your parents haven't seen you for too long, I'm just anxious for a while." In fact, this is the case, your third brother is going to get married in the Chinese New Year's Eve this year, and the object of the deal is the daughter of the old Zhang family on our street, and your parents want you to go back and see, lively and lively. The two old men are also getting older, and their bodies are not as strong as before, you know, as soon as this person is old, he especially wants to see his children more, the family is reunited, and the rooms at home are all cleaned up for you, just waiting for you to go back.
Lin Manman knows the reason why the Lin family asked Ma Xiaolan to come over, look at this public relations can talk a lot, but she won't go back no matter what she says, and she has a lot of alimony that should be given.
"Speaking of which, I haven't seen my parents for a long time, are they okay? Does the family still live in the same place? ”
Ma Xiaolan replied: "There is nothing big about the body, but when I am older, there are some minor problems, and my spirit is not as good as in previous years." It's still the same place, but don't worry, Manman, there is a place for you to live at home. ”
Lin Manman was a little curious, "I remember that the family is only thirty square meters, separated by three cubicles, one for my parents, one for you, and one for the third brother and three sisters-in-law, how can there be more?" ”
Ma Xiaolan said with a smile: "The room of the second brother and sister-in-law has been given up for you, let's go to someone else's house to borrow it for a few nights." ”
Lin Dongye frowned and glanced at Ma Xiaolan.
Lin Manman glanced at Lin Dongye funny, "Why am I embarrassed to occupy my brother's and sister-in-law's room?" What do people say about me? Second brother and sister-in-law, let's do it, when I get better, I will ask for a leave to go home to visit relatives, and stay a few more days at that time. ”
Lin Dongye frowned and was about to say something, Ma Xiaolan hurriedly grabbed him, and then she said to Lin Manman by herself: "Sister, are you worried that no one will take care of you in the car?" Don't you see we're here now? When the time comes, your brother and I will take care of you, and won't let you lift anything, and if you get tired from walking, let your brother carry you, okay? ”
The more people are called back like this, the more Lin Manman feels that there is something wrong.
"Sister-in-law, you don't know, when I fell off the cliff, my head hit a stone, and the other injuries are okay, but the head is here, the doctor said it was a concussion, and I couldn't stand it when I was in the car."
"This ......" Ma Xiaolan looked at Lin Dongye and asked him for ideas.
In fact, when they came over at this time, they really planned to take Lin Manman back, even if they couldn't go back now, they had to let her pay attention to the matter of going home, otherwise she would always be like this, and it was estimated that she would not return to the Lin family for the rest of her life.
After so many years, I can also see that the little daughter of the Lin family is no longer the obedient little daughter, whatever the family says, she has been a soldier for a few years, her wings are stiff, and she has her own opinions.
Of course, the Lin family doesn't want to go on like this, seeing that this girl is getting older, and when she reaches the age of getting married, if she marries without saying a word, then there will be nothing to do with the Lin family.
