372 Far Island Survival(19)
Five years have passed, Shi Bin is no longer the small public security officer he was at the beginning, he was promoted and raised in the city after he arrived in the provincial capital, and has become a rising star in the police world.
Lin Xiaoxiao has not stopped in the past five years, and her company has also a certain reputation in the provincial capital and has become a strong woman in the business world. In the past five years, she has never seen Lin Dongsheng and the people around him again.
Of course, she occasionally hears some news about Lin Dongsheng, but the two are engaged in different industries, even if they are in the same provincial capital, there is no chance of intersection. Although she has never met anyone, she will politely call and greet during the New Year's holidays, but unfortunately most of the time the secretary answers the phone. Once or twice, I answered the phone in person, saying that I would encounter all kinds of urgent matters to deal with in less than three minutes.
Once or twice can be said to be accidental, but every time it is like this, Lin Xiaoxiao can only say that this kind of small means is too low-level. She doesn't want to get close to the old man, and she doesn't care about the old man's family property, but someone is too villainous.
Approaching the Spring Festival, Lin Xiaoxiao is going to call the old man again, she wants to see what moths she can meet this time.
"Hello! Miss Lin, the chairman is not in the company, he is on the way to the airport, he will immediately take a flight of more than ten hours to fly abroad, you can only wait until he comes back if you want to contact him. "There was a formulaic voice on the other end of the phone, comparable to professional customer service, the voice was sweet and beautiful, and the content could not be faulted, but the key was that it could not explain the problem.
Lin Xiaoxiao hung up the phone politely, she made this call to explain to herself, as for whether the old man can receive the call, she doesn't have a lot of expectations in her heart.
"Didn't find anyone?" Shi Bin looked up from the newspaper.
"Hmm."
"Forget it, I'll fight again when I come back in the next year. You go and see what else you have to pack, and leave early tomorrow. Shi Bin looked for something to divert Lin Xiaoxiao's attention.
"It's all packed up, will you be scolded when you go back tomorrow?" Lin Xiaoxiao was not affected, she was still in the mood to make fun of Shi Bin.
After Shi Bin and her moved to the provincial capital, they never returned to their hometown. Shi Bin calls home on time every month, and sends something back during the New Year's holidays, and makes excuses when he mentions going home.
Shi Mu didn't understand in her hometown, Shi Bin said that she was on duty, and she couldn't find anyone to ask, so she could only comfort herself that the money was not less than a penny, and it didn't matter if she didn't go back or not.
"Don't worry, as long as the old lady has money, she is still very talkative. Ignore them when you go back, just push me on the head whatever they say. ”
"Of course, I want to push you, you are on duty every year, and you can't let the people in your hometown know about your desperate promotion and salary increase. If they do bad things out there with your momentum, you'll be working hard all these years. Lin Xiaoxiao reminded Shi Bin not to show his mouth when he returned to his hometown. She knew that he wouldn't say this to the Shi family, so she was afraid that if she accidentally said it to outsiders, it would reach the ears of the Shi family.
The Shi family hasn't made any trouble over the years, but that doesn't mean they are safe, they just don't know Shi Bin's position, and they don't know that Lin Xiaoxiao has made a lot of money.
Lin Xiaoxiao's company is very famous, and the products sold are of high quality and good price, but most people don't know who the boss is.
"Don't worry, I'll pay attention." Shi Bin is willing to help the Shi family, but the premise is that they work their own, and it won't work if they want to sit back and wait to lean on him.
Shi Bin and Lin Xiaoxiao drove back directly this time, and the car was hung in the name of the company. She usually commutes to and from work, and most of the time is for official business.
It took at least five hours to drive back from the provincial capital, and the couple took turns driving, and it took seven hours to get home. It took longer than expected because of the bad weather and the fact that there were more cars on the road than usual.
The house in the county seat has been vacant for several years, and they can't live in it when they come back, so the couple temporarily lives in a hotel.
Lin Xiaoxiao went to the housekeeping company to ask someone to help clean up, and tried to live in it within two days. Shi Bin drove a car in the county town to make a big purchase, and before returning to the village, he had to buy all the gifts for relatives.
Lin Xiaoxiao received a notice from the housekeeping company to inspect the house, and after some cleaning, it looked clean and tidy, but the house was cold and lacked a trace of popularity.
Shi Bin also found that the house was much more dilapidated than before, the corners of the walls were full of moss, the roof was also full of fallen leaves and vasson, and the creeper next door also climbed the fence beyond the boundary.
"Sell it or not."
"Let's leave it alone! We can't afford it now, and we're not short of that. Lin Xiaoxiao likes to come back to a corner, although she can't come back once in a few years.
Lin Xiaoxiao looked at the clean kitchen, and if she wanted to cook by herself, she had to buy a lot of things. She didn't want to do it, but during the Chinese New Year, even those who sold steamed buns had to go home for the New Year, let alone restaurants.
Lin Xiaoxiao pulled Shi Bin to cook together, which can be regarded as a kind of fun. In the past few years, the two of them have been busy with work, not to mention cooking, and they don't eat much together.
Shi Bin's work is busy, there is no day and night, Lin Xiaoxiao has to go to work, and he only eats at home at night every day. In a month, the two of them ate together more than a dozen times.
Shi Bin burned pig's feet and pig's head in the yard, and the hair on these two things could not be cleaned, so they could only be burned with fire. Lin Xiaoxiao steamed pearl balls, steamed pork ribs, boiled spiced beef in the kitchen, and the soup was still boiling on the stove.
Prepare the main dish in advance, and you can skip the knife in the next few days, and add seasonal vegetables on the same day to start the meal.
The husband and wife were busy in the kitchen for a day, not because they were slow to work, but because the stove in the kitchen was not enough, and the fire was small, so they couldn't get up quickly.
The next morning, Lin Xiaoxiao slept soundly, but was woken up by the continuous sound of firecrackers outside. She glanced at the time in the dark, and it was not yet four o'clock.
Shi Bin was also woken up, and the couple didn't sleep well, but the unstoppable sound of firecrackers could make everyone who wanted to sleep unable to sleep.
"I'll cook, and you lie in bed for a while." Shi Bin thought that he couldn't sleep anymore, so it was better to eat early.
"I'll help you." Lin Xiaoxiao didn't want to lie down. They have to go back to the village after breakfast, and today they will go back to Shijia for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. This was decided two months ago, Shi Bin promised Shi's father, and the family had a lively Spring Festival.
"Then you wear more clothes, don't freeze, I'll go boil hot water first." Shi Bin advanced the kitchen to boil water and wash his face.
The kitchen is built with an earthen stove, and it is also firewood, Shi Bin lit the fire, and the fire burned brightly. Hot water was available right away.
He brought the washing water to the bathroom, intimately helped Lin Xiaoxiao squeeze the toothpaste, prepared a towel, and filled the cup with hot water for brushing his teeth. He was afraid that Lin Xiaoxiao would freeze, so he helped her prepare everything before he went to fetch water, brush her teeth and wash her face.
Lin Xiaoxiao opened the door and a gust of cold wind entered her neck, and she subconsciously shrank her body. She came to the bathroom and saw the prepared hot water and towels, and immediately gave Shi Bin a sweet kiss.
