Chapter 101
Lin Shu grew up in the military family compound. She heard and saw many kinds of separations, as well as the difficulties of many military wives.
When she agreed to marry Liang Jinxi, she was prepared that their future life would not be too stable. They might have to move to a new place every few years, and most of the time they might be stationed in some remote places.
Unless he changed his career, he would not be able to live in the city.
But she always knew that he was an excellent and promising soldier. Unless there was something wrong, he would not change his career easily.
So she was mentally prepared.
She didn't mind too much.
It's just that the timing this time was a bit coincidental.
Fortunately, she had not fallen behind in her high school studies in the past few years, and was not particularly worried about the college entrance examination. She only needed to wait for the official announcement to see the specific scope of the examination, and then review it in a targeted manner. She was not worried at all about this.
But no matter what, she should calm down and review well in the two months before the examination.
So she would definitely not be able to take Zhenzhen with him to the border in these months.
Otherwise, she would have to adapt to the new environment, and Zhenzhen would have to be taken care of by herself. How could she calm down and prepare for the examination?
She said to Mrs. Zhang: "No matter what, if he really goes to the border, I will definitely follow him in the long run, but the current situation is not very clear. I think it is better to wait until it is clear before making careful arrangements. Moreover, even if he follows the army, a month or so will not be a big deal. It is common for them to not go home for a month or several months during special training or missions. We must wait until all aspects are arranged properly before we can follow him.. "
"You are right,"
Hearing Lin Shu's words, Zhang's heart finally settled down slowly.
She smiled, "Why do you think I am so impatient? Teacher Lin, if only our Xiaoyu could have half of your temper."
Lin Shu smiled, "Sister-in-law has her own advantages, and I think Xiaoyu is very stable at a young age."
Sister-in-law Zhang is really a little proud when talking about her daughter.
She smiled, "Yes, this child is not like me, but like her father, who does things steadily. Some time ago, my hometown wrote to me and said that the old man was bored because there was no girl to show filial piety in front of him, and wanted me to send this child back to accompany him. Her father really had this idea after receiving the letter, but I scolded him back. If she was sent back, I don't know how the child would be raised. "
What do you mean there are no girls to show filial piety to.
My parents-in-law have three sons, my husband is the youngest, the other two are in the countryside, they have several children, but the girl from the eldest family is already married.
Life in the countryside is hard, and Zhang knows that the two sisters-in-law have to work in the fields on weekdays, and the laundry, cooking and housework at home are all on the mother-in-law alone. I'm afraid that the mother-in-law has this idea and wants her granddaughter to go back to help... This can't be blamed on the mother-in-law. A girl of this age in the countryside has to help with these things, such as washing clothes, cooking and cutting pig grass.
If Zhang She was willing to be filial to the old man and let him do less work when she was in her hometown.
But asking her 11-year-old daughter to go back and work like a slave without her mother to take care of her was like tearing out Zhang's heart, so she absolutely refused.
"Well,"
Lin Shu also knew some of the situation of Zhang's in-laws. She liked Xiaoyu very much, so naturally she didn't want to see Zhang send Xiaoyu back to her hometown.
She said softly, "Then you must insist, sister-in-law. After all, the old man is old and has different ideas. It's better to keep the child by your side so that she can see him. "
The two talked about family matters for a long time before Aunt Zhang left.
After seeing Aunt Zhang off, Lin Shu calmed down.
Thinking of Liang Jinxi's abnormality last night, Lin Shu estimated that he was 100% afraid that he would also go to the border.
As for why he was like that last night... I don't know if he was afraid that she would not want to go to the border with him, or if he made the decision to let her stay.
She breathed a sigh of relief, stopped herself from thinking too much, and turned to the study upstairs to look at the map.
There was also some information about universities that Aunt Yao had given her before.
Guangzhou and Nanzhou both have good universities.
She didn't have to stay in Xizhou to study in college.
Where to study in college was not a big deal for her... Although she also knew that whether it was Guangzhou or Nanzhou, it might be far away from his base, even if she went to college there, the two might still have to live separately. But even if he was still in the base here, she would have to separate on weekdays if she went to Xizhou to study?
That is, her parents were here in Xizhou City, and she knew many people. If she brought Zhenzhen with her, it would definitely be much easier to study and live here.
But The difficulties five years ago were all over. What difficulties can't be solved now?
Lin Shu looked through the map, checked the university information, and slowly calmed down.
But thinking that he might think she didn't want to go to the border with him, or that he wanted her to stay on his own initiative...either way, she was a little unhappy.
Because of this unhappiness, she cooked several dishes in the evening.
Luffa and egg soup, cold tomatoes, stir-fried peas, and stir-fried bitter melon with pork ribs are all good for reducing internal heat.
Oh, and also cooked a green bean paste.
Liang Jin When Jinxi came back, Zhenzhen rushed over when she heard the door open, calling "Dad" several times in a row.
Poor child, he hasn't seen his father for several days. Liang Jinxi came back too late last night and left too early in the morning, so he didn't see him either.
Liang Jinxi is usually very busy, but whenever he is at home, he will play with him and help him make various toys. So even if they don't spend every day together, Zhenzhen still likes and even admires this father.
Liang Jinxi reached out and hugged Zhenzhen, who immediately laughed excitedly, reached out to touch the ceiling, and screamed, "I'm so tall."
...Because he is too heavy, Lin Shu has stopped hugging him.
Lin Shu served the dishes to the table, glanced at them, and let the two play.
Liang Jinxi came over with Zhenzhen in his arms, and when he saw the food on the table, he said, "It's so hot, why do you have to work so hard to cook by yourself? Just go to the cafeteria and get a portion. "
Lin Shu put down the last dish of cold tomato and a plate of Bo pancake, turned to him and smiled: "I'd better cook it myself. Maybe you will be transferred in a few days and you won't be able to eat my food, so even if it's hot, I'll cook as many meals as I can."
Liang Jinxi: ...
His hand holding his son froze, and then he looked at Lin Shu inquiringly.
Lin Shu was very calm.
As if he didn't think he had said anything extraordinary, he reached out to take his son and said: "Okay, come down, let your dad take a shower, and eat together later."
Classmate Liang Zhen was still poking the ceiling excitedly, pretending not to hear his mother's words.
But his father was not in the mood to play with him at the moment. He put him down regardless of his wishes and looked at Lin Shu and called: "Shu Shu."
"Dad, Dad, Dad! "
Liang Zhen started to act unreasonably, bumping his head against his father's thigh.
...This kid always pretends to be very mature outside, but he is actually very domineering at home.
Liang Jinxi ignored him.
Lin Shu, however, lifted his arm and pulled him back, saying, "HeyYour dad is so dirty, do you think you are a pig head digging a pig pen? "
Liang Jinxi: ...
Classmate Liang Zhen: "I want to be very tall!"
Lin Shu: "Then sit down and eat, eat more and you will grow taller than your dad."
Classmate Liang Zhen: "I want to be very tall now, I don't want to grow by myself!"
Lin Shu: "There is no way, it is not you who grows up, so it is not up to you."
"It is not up to mom, it is dad who is tall, dad has the final say!"
Liang Jinxi finally lowered his head, pressed his little head, and then patted his little shoulder, saying: "Go, listen to your mom, and eat."
Usually, his action and expression, that is, there is no room for negotiation.
Lin Shu smiled and said: "Did you hear that, the person who has the final say asked you to go to eat."
Liang Zhen's face fell.
Looking angry but helpless.
Liang Jinxi said: "After taking a bath, I will play with you after dinner. "
The little guy was happy again.
He straightened his chest and looked at his mother proudly, then sat down at the table in an orderly manner.
Lin Shu shrugged.
Liang Jinxi's eyes had moved from his son to her, staring at her.
Lin Shu smiled at him and said, "Okay, go take a shower, I'll take care of your son first."
"What did someone say to you?"
He ignored her urging him to take a shower and asked her.
But because his son was there, his voice was a little gentle.
"Well,"
Lin Shu smiled in the tone of "Sister Zhang came over to talk about some family matters," "Sister Zhang came over in the afternoon and told me that Battalion Commander Zhang was going to be transferred to the border. You should take a shower first, it will take a while to finish this matter... You didn't tell me last night either."
"Yesterday..."
"I know, you go take a shower, and we'll talk after dinner when Zhenzhen falls asleep. "
Liang Jinxi's heart was like a stone, so he had no mood to take a shower.
But his son was already looking at them curiously, and this matter was indeed not something that could be settled in a few words.
It was impossible to just say "I'm going to the border, do you want to go with me?" and then she would answer him with "yes" or "no".
He could only turn around and take a shower.
But when he thought of her saying, "Let's do as many meals as we can", he felt depressed.
