Chapter 020: The harder you work, the luckier you get
Xin Kaixu limped to care about Lin Xiangchuan, afraid that the child's foot would be injured, but fortunately, it was fine.
The atmosphere is subtle.
He made an excuse to go downstairs by holding on to the railing, Lin Xiangchuan helped to support him, and when he went upstairs again, he found Xin Er folding the quilt with red eyes.
"Uncle has his own considerations, don't be too uncomfortable."
If Xin Kaixu thinks about himself and rebuilds the house, he will eat when he should eat and drink when he should drink.
Sin'er wouldn't be so aggrieved.
In the past, she smiled and persuaded her, but it was just a bamboo basket to draw water, and she was red-eyed and annoyed.
"Children from poor families know best what it's like to have no money, and I study hard......"
She unabashedly said that she wanted to support this single-parent family single-handedly.
Probably rarely talking about his family with others, Xin'er's expression was unnatural, and the family had become stranger, after all, he didn't come back every day.
Wait for Sin'l to leave.
Lin Xiangchuan officially observed this small, square room.
There is a faint aroma of citrus aroma.
Spotlessly clean everywhere.
If he hadn't known in advance that this was Xin'er's room, Lin Xiangchuan wouldn't have associated the textbooks and test papers stuffed into the wood-colored bookcase with her when he glanced at it.
There are books on the desk, and there are books on the bedside table.
Even under the bed there are full books, among which there are also novels.
Lin Xiangchuan was lying on the bed, his feet were exposed at the end of the bed, he didn't mind, looked at the ceiling, and found a line of palm-sized red letters.
They are neatly written next to the round lampshade: the harder you work, the luckier!
Memories came flooding in waves without permission.
When we first met, he was 23 years old and Sinl was 20 years old.
A sudden storm and rain make them meet in the square.
Zill took off the doll's hood and twisted the rabbit's wet ears.
Dozens of colorful balloons were blown away by the wind, and she tried to chase them, jumping, and running.
She didn't give up until she couldn't see the balloon, and her sad face couldn't cover her beautiful features.
A father and son then came to take shelter from the rain.
He noticed that Zill had a smile bigger than a sunflower when the little boy looked at her.
It's as if nothing had happened before.
It's the same for him, obviously he didn't do anything.
She has been working hard and working hard, both in her studies and in life.
Thoughts are still wandering aimlessly, and they can't interrupt if they want to.
He closed his eyes and fell asleep unconsciously, his body clock automatically delayed by the long-lost relaxation.
Outside the window, the sky was not clear, and there were no white clouds in the distance.
It's easy to feel like it's not dawn yet.
When Lin Xiangchuan woke up, the electric fan was working with a "crunch" sound, and he turned it off easily, and found that the wind blowing outside the window was hot.
Someone walked by outside the door, and he knew it was Sin.
"Morning, did you sleep well last night?"
Xin'er was dressed in loose sportswear and an apron, and his little face was hot and red.
"Very good, where are you going with the light bulb?"
Zill pointed to the next door to his room, "The light bulb in that room is broken, I'll go get a new one." ”
Before the words fell, the light bulb in her hand was taken away by Lin Xiangchuan, and it was installed in the blink of an eye.
There were only two people in the family, and Xin Er was active all morning, and drank another bowl of millet porridge with Lin Xiangchuan.
"It's already raining outside, does your uncle bring a poncho?"
"Bring it," Xin Er found Lin Xiangchuan still staring out the door, "I'll take you out for a walk when the weather is fine, there are a few places, you will definitely like it." ”
The rain was pouring down, and the surroundings were very quiet, and only the sound of rain could be heard.
Xin'er explained that a rainy day in Xishui Town is a bad day, and big things are not a big thing, so sleep at home and catch up on dramas.
As she was talking, Aunt Ah Xuan next door came with her daughter smiling.
A thousand words are combined into one sentence: You boldly make up the lesson, and she will beat if she doesn't listen.
Unexpectedly, Xiaoxiao's attention was on Lin Xiangchuan, and he asked him bluntly when he and Xin Er got married, how did the two meet, and what kind of business did they do......
"I'll go to my uncle and call me if there's something."
Lin Xiangchuan walked with a cold face, his back was still around the corner, and he smiled and pulled Xin Er to persuade:
"Sister Xin'er, that man doesn't look very reliable. Listening to my mother, I don't understand any human feelings, and it's useless to just look good.
When I came to see my parents, I had to give gifts, looking at him with a famous brand, how embarrassed to be empty-handed, my dad was ...... back then"
Eh, Aunt Ah Xuan said everything to the child.
At this time, Lin Xiangchuan held up the rainy mountain, asked as he walked, and came to the door of a car repair shop.
The words on the shop sign were no longer legible, and I could barely recognize the word Xin.
Xin Kaixu didn't expect Lin Xiangchuan to come alone, so he hurriedly put down the tools in his hand, "Is there something to find me?" ”
Lin Xiangchuan shook his head, glanced at it quickly, and his gaze fell on Xin Kaixu's rough hands stained with pungent engine oil.
Seeing this, Xin Kaixu hid his hand intentionally or unintentionally.
"It's nothing, I want to come over and help my uncle."
Lin Xiangchuan himself knows some car repair techniques, and Xin Kaixu dials it a little more, and the operation is very smooth.
Xin Kaixu unscrewed the teacup and took a sip of water, looking at Lin Xiangchuan's silhouette, "It's better for me to come, it's hard to wash the clothes if they're dirty." ”
A voice floated from under the car: "Uncle, I don't mind this. ”
The conversation box has been opened, Xin Kaixu took the opportunity to ask:
"Do your parents know that you came here?"
Lin Xiangchuan shook his right hand: "They died very early, and I have always been alone." ”
Xin Kaixu smacked his lips, and even his breathing became heavier.
Since she was a child, Sin lacked the care of her mother, and he hoped that his daughter would marry a man who had a happy family of origin.
But he could also see how much Xin Er liked Lin Xiangchuan.
"Poor boy." Xin Kaixu also sympathized with him from the bottom of his heart.
"Uncle doesn't ask me what kind of work I do, how long have I known Xin'er?" Lin Xiangchuan took the initiative to ask.
Xin Kaixu naturally cared, but he felt that Xin Er would say these things, so there was no need to ask behind his daughter's back.
"It can be seen that you work very well and are very good at making money, and my family is not bad.
I have only one request as a father, just treat my daughter sincerely.
What kind of person you are, I can see it, it makes no difference whether you ask or not. ”
Xin Kaixu said whatever he wanted.
"Uncle, both Sin'er and I want to have a complete home, you should understand this feeling."
Lin Xiangchuan moved out from under the car, got up and looked at Xin Kaixu and continued to add:
"If you don't agree, don't worry about objecting yet, it's not easy for me and Xin Er to reconcile."
Xin Kaixu was shocked, he had never heard his daughter talk about Lin Xiangchuan's ex-boyfriend.
"Also," Lin Xiangchuan looked at Xin Kaixu's lame leg, "This leg has undergone two surgeries, and I don't know how it is recovering, uncle take a moment, let me and Xin Er take you to the review." ”
Xin Kaixu knew that his daughter didn't seem to be talking about this kind of thing, her face was complicated, and her heart was even more mixed.
