Chapter 5

Let's go back to Lin Shu.

Several people got on the brigade's tractor.

Secretary Liang sat next to the driver in the front, and several educated youth sat in the back truck.

The tractor was not as good as a tricycle, and it didn't even have a roof.

The cold wind was blowing, as cold as ice picks.

But because of the support of the blazing gossip fire, everyone shivered and endured for a while.

Everyone kept looking at Lin Shu, but they were too embarrassed to speak.

"Lin Shu, is your partner really from this brigade?"

Everyone was very curious, but the other two were both male comrades and they were not familiar with each other, so it was Xu Juan who asked first.

She rubbed her hands embarrassedly and said, "I said before that I would take care of you after I got to the team. Don't worry, I'm here. If your partner is in this brigade, you should take care of me... But how could your partner be from here?"

Speaking of this, she thought of what Lin Shu had said to the secretary of the Shitan Brigade before, and waved her hand again, adding, "Ah, Lin Shu, don't get me wrong. I'm not saying that the comrades here are not good. Secretary Zhao also said that, that, that Deputy Battalion Commander Liang is not an ordinary rural comrade, but, I just didn't expect it... After all, it seems that there is no relationship."

Lin Shu pulled his teeth as if he had a toothache.

Before, he was in a hurry and could only bite the bullet and say so.

She was assigned to the Qinghe Brigade as she wished. But now that she was sitting on the tractor going to Qinghe Brigade, she knew that the lie was really big.

The key point is that this is not just her own business.

This matter involves the deputy battalion commander Liang, a distant relative whom she has never met.

In her current situation, it doesn't matter if she has such a fake partner, but the deputy battalion commander Liang is not young anymore. Whether in the countryside or in the city, he should have been dating, married and had children.

She didn't even know if he had a partner at this moment.

Her mother had inquired about the current situation of the Liang family before arranging her to come here, and knew that he was not married or engaged, but that was only to find a fellow villager in Xizhou City to ask. First, there was a time difference, so the current situation could not be guaranteed, and second, his situation in the army was even less clear.

She had to thank God, just by looking at the reactions of the crowd, she knew that he still had no partner in his hometown!

Otherwise, it would be a big trouble!

Lin Shu was in a state of confusion, but this matter had to end.

She closed her eyes, gritted her teeth, and said with a determined heart: "Actually, it's not a relationship. I have always liked Deputy Battalion Commander Liang. This time, I went to the countryside for Deputy Battalion Commander Liang's hometown." This is my own business. Just insist that this is the case. Everyone: ... "But, but how did you know Deputy Battalion Commander Liang?" Xu Juan couldn't help asking again. "My father was also in the army, and our family used to live in the military region, so we knew each other a long time ago." In fact, Liang Jinxi was on the front line of the Guangzhou Military Region, and her father was in the former West Military Region. They were not related at all, but if she didn't say these details, outsiders would not know, and no one could question her words. "So that's it," Xu Juan was moved by Lin Shu's sincere love. She said, "Lin Shu, you are so brave!" Lin Shu's mouth twitched. That, it's not bravery, but just being forced to lie and make a big lie that could leak everywhere! Liang Shuhuai led the four educated youths back to the brigade.

At this moment, Liang Jinxi's mother, Aunt Hu Yingzhi, was already waiting at the brigade headquarters with her daughter-in-law Zhou Xiuhong and her grandson Shitou.

The villagers were very enthusiastic.

Besides, Lin Shu's grandmother had taken care of her hometown a lot before. Although it was a long time ago, Aunt Hu still remembered it.

In addition, Aunt Hu had seen Lin Shu twice when she was a child and even held her in her arms. She was very delicate and beautiful. Aunt Hu remembered it very clearly.

Now that her family was in trouble, her mother specially entrusted her beautiful daughter to her. Aunt Hu was still very dedicated.

At this moment, Liang Shuhuai entered the house and saw Aunt Hu who was looking forward to it. He laughed "Haha" and said, "Sister-in-law, you have been waiting for your daughter-in-law here for a long time?"

This shout was simply earth-shattering.

EveryoneShe was so shocked that she trembled.

What are you talking about?

Everyone looked at Liang Shuhuai first, and then Aunt Hu, Zhou Xiuhong and other people in the team looked at the educated youth.

The educated youth looked at Aunt Hu and Zhou Xiuhong.

Lin Shu:...

Lin Shu's head buzzed, his face was hot, and he felt like he was about to explode.

God, this old secretary is such a big mouth.

He really doesn't leave anyone any room for buffer.

In the weird atmosphere, Aunt Hu spoke first.

She asked Liang Shuhuai: "Secretary, what are you talking about?"

What daughter-in-law?

Lin Shu took a deep breath.

She said it herself, and she had to hold on even if she had to bite the bullet.

She forced a smile and asked tentatively: "Aunt Hu?"

Aunt Hu heard someone calling her, and temporarily put aside what Secretary Liang had just said.

She saw the little girl who was talking wrapped in a big scarf, and her pink face was already red.

Immediately, she felt that Liang Shuhuai might have misunderstood. Alas, this thing, it's okay to joke with the villagers, but how can you say it in front of the child, really!

She hurriedly said: "Hey, yes, you are Shu girl?"

Lin Shu nodded, "Auntie, you can just call me Shu Shu. I heard from my mother that you saw me when I was a child, but I was young at that time and I don't remember it."

"Yes, yes,"

Auntie Hu smiled immediately when she heard Lin Shu mention her childhood, and said, "That's right, hey, you have grown up so much, but Auntie can still recognize you, the same as when you were a child."

In fact, when you grow up, you must be different from when you were two or three years old, but Lin Shu looks too beautiful. When she was a child, she looked like a fairy boy, and when she grew up, she looked like a fairy girl. She has a small face and fair skin that seems to hurt when the wind blows. Isn't it the same?

Lin Shu had already stepped forward and reached out to hold Aunt Hu's hand.

A warm feeling came over her, as well as a strong sense of sincerity, kindness and joy.

Lin Shu's originally nervous mood suddenly calmed down.

She looked at the young daughter-in-law and the five or six-year-old child beside Aunt Hu and said, "Auntie, is this my sister-in-law and your little grandson?"

Auntie Hu nodded.

She held Lin Shu's soft little hand, smiled and said, "Yes, this is my eldest daughter-in-law, you can call her sister-in-law or sister Xiuhong, this is Shitou, my little grandson, he is eight years old this year, he has an older brother, Zhuzi, who is ten years old, and he went to work in the team with his father."

Lin Shu took out a handful of candy from her bag and stuffed it into Shitou's hand, saying, "Auntie, are you waiting for me in the team on purpose? It's so cold, you should wait for me to see you."

Auntie Hu waved her hand and smiled, "It's okay, we'll come and see, we'll go to the Youth League Office to help you pack up later, see if you need anything, and then bring it to you from home."

Both sides talked.

Auntie Hu was still a little worried, after all, she had only seen Lin Shu twice when she was young, and didn't know what kind of personality she had. She was afraid that she would be too delicate, which would be troublesome.

Fortunately, after a few words, I found that although this girl looked delicate and tender, she was very sensible and considerate, and she didn't look down on them, the farmers, so it worked.

Auntie Hu was very happy.

After a few words, Liang Shuhuai interrupted and said, "Okay, sister-in-law, let's get these educated youths' procedures done first, and you can talk slowly later."

Auntie Hu smiled and said, "Okay, you go ahead and do your business."

In fact, there was no special procedure. The household registration was registered with the commune, and the names were called here. Then each person received a set of bedding and daily necessities and was led to the educated youth dormitory.

After arriving at the brigade, each educated youth could get a thin quilt, a straw pillow, a washbasin, a thermos, and an enamel pot.

While counting things here, the women's director Gao Lanzhen interrupted and said, "Secretary, what did you mean by Sister Hu waiting for her daughter-in-law?"

Lin Shu's hand slipped while pressing the handprint.

How come the topic that was finally changed was brought up again...

When Director Gao mentioned this, Aunt Hu also remembered it. She was just about to ask Liang Shuhuai to stop talking nonsense, as it embarrassed the girl.

But before she could speak, Liang Shuhuai interrupted her and said, "Didn't Lin Zhiqing say that she was Jinxi's girlfriend? Haha, sister-in-law, why didn't you tell me about this earlier? Jinxi has a girlfriend, so there won't be so many people thinking about him."

Then, in the stunned eyes of others, she happily told the story of the Shitan Brigade of the commune snatching people, saying, "Just for Jinxi, he didn't even want the teacher position in Shitan Brigade."

Director Gao was still a little confused.

She turned her head to look at Aunt Hu and said, "Sister-in-law Hu, is this true? Didn't you say that Jinxi doesn't have a girlfriend yet?"

As she spoke, she looked at Lin Shu, who was trying to pretend to be calm, but looked a little embarrassed with her eyes wide open, and swallowed the rest of her words.

She couldn't help but be surprised, because her cousin Gao Xiaolian from her mother's side was a teacher in the commune primary school. She just heard from her mother's side that the two families were interested in getting married, saying that they would wait for Liang Jinxi to come back during the Spring Festival this year, and then let the two meet and settle the matter. How come a match suddenly appeared? Aunt Hu didn't know what was going on. She also looked at Lin Shu in surprise. "Aunt Hu doesn't know." Lin Shu puffed up his chest and said, "You don't know about this." Liang Jinxi didn't know either. She hadn't even met him yet. As she said that, she looked at Aunt Hu with a look of surprise.Some begging cautiously said, "Auntie, I will explain this to you later."

Or else it would be said that the pretty girl took advantage.

If some other girl suddenly appeared and said that she was her son's girlfriend, Auntie Hu would definitely be angry and examine the other party first, who are you, you said it was my son's girlfriend?

But now Lin Shu looked at her like this and said to her, "I will explain it to you later", her heart softened.

She thought, who can say such a thing for no reason?

Such a pretty, delicate and soft girl said that she was her son's girlfriend, and she didn't even want the position of teacher in Shitan Brigade, that must be true!

Although I wonder how my son talked to the girl when he was far away in the army, I never doubted the authenticity of this matter!

The look I gave Lin Shu was different!

Future daughter-in-law!

Besides, she is the granddaughter of my cousin's grandmother, so pretty and cute, and her son, doesn't she know that he has a bad temper? If she was easy to get along with and talk to, how could she still be single? !

The girl who can date her son must be a good girl!

At this moment, Liang Shuhuai said "Haha" again, "So you talked to him by yourself! Sister-in-law didn't even know?"

Auntie Hu glared at Liang Shuhuai and said, "How can such a thing be said in a telegram? Our Jinxi will be back for the New Year, so she must have planned to tell us solemnly when she comes back, so as not to wrong the girl!"

After saying that, she looked at Lin Shu again, with a gentle and loving face, and said, "It's okay, Shushu, you shouldn't have told Auntie and everyone about this first. It's because our Jinxi is in the army that we let you, a girl, talk about this alone, and you are wronged."

Lin Shu: ...
