Chapter XXII

Lin Xi knew that he was fierce, but he was not afraid at all.

"Brother, what would you do if I got along with someone else?"

Shen Kang really thought about it seriously.

"Castrate the man first, and then fix you well, and see if you dare to go out and mess with flowers."

Lin Xi was stunned.

Seeing that she was obviously frightened, Shen Kang touched her head and whispered, "Don't listen to my brother's nonsense, it's all fun for you." can make such a good girl like you like someone else, it must be that my brother is not good enough. If it weren't for you, it is estimated that my brother would not like others in the future. ”

Lin Xi's heart was stung inexplicably.

After she and Zhao were satisfied with each other in her previous life, he really never married a wife again.

Seeing that she was going to cry or not, Shen Kang hurriedly hugged her shoulder: "Brother is wrong, brother will never tease you again." ”

"Brother, I will only be good to you in the future, and I promise not to find anyone else."

Standing up to her soft voice, it was only ninety o'clock in the morning, but Shen Kang felt that he was a little upset by the heat around him.

So he turned his head and grabbed the teapot on the table and poured a few sips.

The protruding Adam's apple rolled up and down, crystal drops of water and beads of sweat dripping silently down his resolute chin.

A jar of cold water under the stomach, the hot feeling finally dispelled a lot.

"There's a lot of work out there." He didn't dare to stay in the house any longer, for fear that he would not be able to control it for a while and do something wrong, so he pulled his legs and walked outside.

Lin Xi didn't know why, so he also went out with him.

In this way, he worked, and Lin Xi gave him a hand, and the two of them spent a day preparing the required wood.

Seeing that it was not early, Lin Xi got up and went home.

In the evening, when the family sat down to eat together, Lin Xi finally told him about his plan to go to school.

Lin Youfa dismissed it without even thinking about it.

"The family affairs with the Shen family have been decided, and now you say that you want to go to school, isn't this nonsense?"

Lin Jianguo asked with concern: "Little sister, did Shen Kang bully you?" ”

Lin Xi hurriedly shook his head: "No, we have been fine." I also told him about going to school, and he said that he supported me. ”

Fan Xiumei: "Your grades have always been very good, and my mother knows that you delayed it for the sake of your family." It's a good thing to want to continue now, after all, we don't suffer losses wherever we have a high Chinese, and we don't have to get married for a year and a half. ”

Unlike other parents, she thinks that sooner or later the girl will marry out from someone else's family, and only the son will be her own.

Fan Xiumei is just the opposite, once the girl gets married, none of her mother-in-law's family is really her home, so she, as a mother, has to think more about the child.

"If the child wants to go to school, then go to school. I'll tell you what the old Shen family thinks. ”

Fan Xiumei rarely makes decisions about family matters, but when she speaks, the family basically does not dare to object.

So, this is how things are settled.

In the next few days, in addition to continuing to sell old clothes, Lin Xi will also help Shen Kang do carpentry when he has time, and communicate with Shen Xiaofei's children by the way.

On this day, Shen Kang had just finished the wardrobe, and before he had time to paint, he received a telegram from the army, saying that he had an urgent task and urged him to return to the team immediately.

He didn't even have time to say hello to Lin Xi before he left in a hurry.

At the end of August, Lin Xi's school was also put on the agenda.

"More than 20 miles from the village to the town, I can't afford to be busy studying." Fan Xiumei began to worry while packing up her things for the girl.

In order to save money, Lin Xi walked back every day. In winter, several brothers have to take turns to pick it up, otherwise it will be too dark and it will be dangerous for a girl.

Now that the school starts, Lin Xi plans to go directly to the third year of high school, and it is definitely not possible to go to school, so he can only live in accommodation.

"Tomorrow I will take the children to the eldest brother's house to see if I will borrow them for a year first, and it will happen that the construction will be repeated, and the two children can also have a companion."

Lin Xi is the same age as Lin Jianjian, but he was delayed for a year to go to school in the countryside. Lin Jianshe didn't pass the college entrance examination this year, and he was going to repeat it, so the two of them happened to be in one session.

Fan Xiumei glanced at Lin Xi next to her, hesitated for a moment and finally agreed.

"Your uncle and your aunt have a lot of rules, they go to the desserts, and they are also diligent in their hands, don't make them angry."

Lin Youfa frowned: "What are you talking about, those are also the children's uncle and aunt, they are all their own children, is it possible that they can deliberately embarrass us Lin Xi?" ”

Lin Xi originally wanted to say a few words, but she knew Lin Youfa too well.

In his heart, no matter what Lin Youzhong is, he is always his own brother, the kind that discounts bones and tendons.

So it's very unwise to add fuel to the fire at this time. Only if he is allowed to see the reality clearly, he will die.

The next day, Lin Youfa and his son went to the town together.

"Dad, I'll go with you."

"No, you don't." Lin Youfa waved his hand: "You are busy with your go." ”

Lin Jianjun had no choice but to leave first, and Lin Youfa took Lin Xi to the family area of the meat factory.

Before arriving at the community, Lin Youfa went to the grocery store at the corner of the street and bought two bottles of canned hawthorn and two packs of sugar.

A piece of canned food is five thousand bottles, eight cents a pound of sugar, and two things cost a total of four yuan and six, which can be said to be a bloody investment for relatives in rural areas.

"Dad, you buy so many things, in case my aunt doesn't agree to me living in their house, isn't it for nothing?"

"No, your eldest sister and second sister are married, there is a place at home, and besides, there are many pairs of dishes and chopsticks, your aunt will not disagree."

Seeing that he swore an oath, Lin Xi didn't say anything anymore, and followed Lin Youfa to the front.

In addition to the sugar factory, the meat factory is the second factory in the town with good efficiency, so the family area is all buildings.

At this time, there was no cast-in-place concrete, and it was basically red brick and prefabricated slab structure. Therefore, the floors of the buildings are not high, and most of them are outdoor stairs.

The father and daughter arrived at the third floor of Lin Youzhong's house, and happened to see Lin Youzhong's daughter-in-law Sun Shuzhen pushing the door out to dry clothes.

"Sister-in-law."

Lin Youfa laughed and shouted, Sun Shuzhen sighed, glanced at Lin Xi behind him, turned around and opened the door to invite the two of them in: "Why are you two free to come over today?" ”

Lin Xi followed Lin Youfa into the house.

Lin Youzhong's house is a standard ensuite layout, with a kitchen and living room at the entrance, and two bedrooms inside.

There were many children, and the innermost house was divided into two huts.

Lin Youfa put the things in his hand on the table before sitting down, and glanced in the direction of the back room: "Jianshe and Xiaoli are not at home?" ”

Seeing him bring something over, Sun Shuzhen frowned inadvertently, and deliberately said, "The two children are angry with me in the back room." ”
