Chapter 67: He's back
Lin Zhao moved her upper body back, having a bad premonition, "If you have something to say, just say it, don't be like this, I'm getting goosebumps."
Li Fen grabbed her hand, her eyes burning, "Sister wants to ask you for a favor."
"What favor?" Lin Zhao hated that she didn't have yarn in her hand, otherwise she could divert her attention, and said bluntly: "If I can help, I will definitely help; if I can't, there's no way."
"It's not something that will make you difficult." Li Fen said hurriedly.
"I just want to ask you to help me keep an eye on whether there are any suitable girls in the countryside."
"?"
Let her be a matchmaker?!
Such a thought popped into her mind. Lin Zhao brought her bright and beautiful face in front of Li Fen, "Sister, look at me, do I look like a matchmaker?"
Li Fen was swayed by her face, which was as bright as the moon.
Clearly she didn't have much ink in her stomach, but she had an urge to recite a few poems.
It was simply poisonous.
"Oh my." Li Fen patted her shoulder, "Didn't ask you to be a matchmaker, just asked you to help keep an eye on it. If there's a good girl, diligent and capable, with a good temperament, and no burden at home, give me a hint, and I'll find someone to inquire."
"That's it. Your family is in the brigade, you should know what kind of temperament every girl has. I'm relieved to leave it to you."
That's it.
Not a problem.
Lin Zhao said: "Don't dislike that people don't have a city household registration?"
"Dislike what, dislike what." Li Fen didn't care about this and said sincerely: "As long as the person is diligent, doesn't dislike my brother's injured leg, and is willing to live a down-to-earth life with him, it's fine. I don't ask for anything else, just for the other party to be a good person."
"Zhaozhao, let me tell you the truth, my family's conditions aren't bad, my brother earns quite a bit, and he's a good person. A girl who marries into my family won't be wronged."
Lin Zhao believed this.
"Okay, I'll go back and ask my mother."
Li Fen asked teasingly: "Which mother?"
Lin Zhao smiled helplessly, "Ask both mothers, okay?"
"I'm not a little girl who just got married, it's useless for you to tease me."
Still wanting to see her blush, it's impossible.
"Yes, yes, yes, you're not a little girl who just got married. Your eldest son and second son are already over five years old, and you can't tell." Li Fen muttered.
When she first found out, she was shocked and didn't come back to her senses for a long time.
With that face of hers, where does she look like a married person, where does she look like a person with children?!
Before Lin Zhao could respond, Song Yunjin walked into the supply and marketing cooperative quickly.
After entering, he went straight to the counter.
"Sister, sister, your photography technique is this!" The teenager gave a thumbs up.
He handed the newly picked up photos to Lin Zhao.
The photos were packed in a small paper bag, black and white, palm-sized.
Lin Zhao opened the mouth that was half-folded in, and poured out a few photos.
It was taken the night she drew the camera.
——Picture of cubs sleeping.
The twins hugging each other to sleep, they were affectionate little brother and sister.
Hearing Hearing Erzai's right leg was domineeringly placed on his brother, hugging his brother with hands and feet, while his brother lay straight, frowning slightly, looking both serious and cute.
The characteristics of each cub were captured by her.
Cute enough to make people spray nosebleeds.
"It seems I have quite a talent for photography." Lin Zhao boasted.
Song Yunjin agreed incomparably, nodded and said: "Sister, you learn everything fast. My father said it was a pity you didn't go to university back then, and he felt uncomfortable whenever he thought about it."
Lin Zhao's hand touching the photo paused, but quickly returned to normal.
"Uncomfortable about what? Even if you can't eat enough, what's the point of talking about taking the university entrance exam." She thought very openly. In that situation back then, even if you had money, you couldn't buy food. The countryside was like that, and there were wild vegetables to dig, but the city was even harder. Taking the university entrance exam was all empty; filling the stomach was more important than anything.
It had only been a few years since the famine passed, and everyone had fresh memories of that terrible experience.
"Also." Song Yunjin said.
Thinking of something, his eyes were bright, his tone full of excitement, "Maybe sister and I can take the university entrance exam together later."
Lin Zhao looked him over and smiled, "Want to carry my schoolbag?"
Song Yunjin patted his chest, "Okay, I'll take care of fetching water and buying meals."
"If there really is such a day, I'm going to the capital, you have to work hard." Lin Zhao's tone was casual.
"Ha..." Song Yunjin laughed out loud, and after trying hard to hold back his laughter after receiving a cold look from his sister, he said: "Sister, you graduated several years ago, you must have forgotten the textbook knowledge long ago. I'll be in high school next year, I remember knowledge more firmly than you. Are you sure it's me working hard, not you working hard?"
"Of course it's you working hard." Lin Zhao said in a matter-of-fact tone.
Some people are good at learning, not talented, she just happens to be this kind of person.
Song Yunjin didn't argue much, "Okay, I'll work hard."
"Sister, are you going home on the weekend?" He confirmed again, saying 'return', not 'go'.
Lin Zhao's eyes and brows were full of smiles, "Yes, take four cubs back."
Song Yunjin smiled from ear to ear.
"Sister, you're busy, I'm going home to get beaten."
After the voice fell, he took a long step and left the supply and marketing cooperative with light steps.
Lin Zhao: "?"
Guessing something, blessings bloomed in her eyes.
Good luck, little classmate Song.
Li Fen and Wang Ju heard something about photos from afar, and seeing Song Yunjin there, they didn't feel embarrassed to come over.
After he left, they stepped forward tacitly.
Lin Zhao tilted her head slightly, meeting two pairs of eyes that couldn't hide their curiosity.
"...... What's wrong?"
Before Li Fen could speak, Wang Ju extended her index finger, lightly pointing at the small paper bag in her hand.
Her eyes were shining, and a shy smile appeared on her face.
The meaning was obvious.
Wanted to see.
"Just say it if you want to see, what's this." Lin Zhao smiled, poured out the photos, and showed them to her colleagues who had a good relationship with her.
Wang Ju carefully picked up one of them, which was the twins'.
The little brother and sister were at the age of deceiving people into having children, small and huddled on the cool mat, with a few cool mat marks on their cheeks, looking soft, as if they would cry loudly if held with a little force.
Their eyelashes were very long and curled.
Their cheeks were fleshy and looked very kissable.
"Their eyelashes are so long." Wang Ju said in a low voice.
Li Fen didn't notice, looked again, and smiled: "Really. Zhaozhao, the four treasures you gave birth to are all good-looking, and they look obedient. You have good fortune."
"Indeed obedient." Lin Zhao agreed generously.
Li Fen was stunned and laughed out loud, "Can't you be a little humble."
"Just telling the truth, my children are one more obedient than the other." Lin Zhao's expression was proud, and her tone was quite sincere.
Li Fen shook her head in her heart. Five-year-old and two-year-old children are all annoying, how can they be obedient.
"The heads of your four treasures are all slept very well, how did you sleep them?" She was very envious.
Her son's head was slept flat, and that's how it would be for a lifetime, but she still had grandchildren! Take some scriptures in advance!
Lin Zhao shook her head, "Don't know, this is Grandma-brand head shape, have to ask the cubs' Grandma."
When the children were just born, even their bones were soft, and she didn't even dare to hold them. If someone asked her how to raise children, she really couldn't answer.
Li Fen immediately cast an envious and complicated look.
"The life you live......"
Lin Zhao lowered her eyes and put the photos back into the small paper bag.
The two returned to their respective counters. Li Fen didn't forget to say to Wang Ju: "In the future, when you get married, you have to find such a mother-in-law, life will be comfortable."
Wang Ju's face was red, too shy to raise her head, her feet accelerated, trying to find something to do to relieve the embarrassment.
"......" Li Fen was dumbfounded.
It's also strange, at least she's the factory director's daughter, why is her courage so small.
Yes, Wang Ju is the biggest relationship household in the supply and marketing cooperative, her own father is a big factory director, heard that in order to exercise her daughter's courage, she was sent over.
In the afternoon, there weren't many guests in the supply and marketing cooperative, only one or two occasionally.
When there was no one, Li Fen sat in front of the counter making shoes for her brother, Wang Ju leaned on her arms and dozed off, Liu Chunhong and another person were whispering.
Lin Zhao's head was against the corner of the counter, with a small notebook on her knees, her head slightly lowered, writing something.
People entering the supply and marketing cooperative swept over, and could see her thick black hair and white back of her neck.
A military green figure appeared for a moment, stared fixedly at a certain place, and turned and left in the blink of an eye.
"Ah!!" Li Fen saw the young man who appeared and disappeared briefly, and exclaimed.
Lin Zhao raised her head and looked towards the door following her gaze, seeing nothing.
"What's wrong?" She asked.
"What a handsome young man!" Li Fen thought of the person she just saw, her eyes shining, gesturing with her hands, "He was wearing a military uniform, very tall, half a head taller than your two cousins, and his face was handsome. I've lived until now and haven't seen a young man more handsome than that."
However, the eyebrows and eyes were a bit familiar.
Where have I seen them?
Shouldn't be.
He looks like that, after one glance, who can forget!?
In Lin Zhao's heart, the cubs' father is the first handsome, no rebuttal accepted, other handsome guys are floating clouds to her here.
"No one is as handsome as our Comrade Gu."
Li Fen's stomach was choked.
The clock hand on the wall pointed to 14:55.
"Sister Fen, help me watch the counter, I'm going out for a bit." Lin Zhao said.
Li Fen waved her hand.
There were only five minutes left until off-duty time, and the sales clerks in the supply and marketing cooperative began to pack things up.
Not long after, Lin Zhao came back with wet hands.
A few ding-dang sounds.
Off duty.
She left with her backpack.
The supply and marketing cooperative gets off work early, and there aren't many people wandering on the street at this point. The sun is at its hottest and hottest, making the ground smoke.
Lin Zhao stepped out of the blue brick steps, covered her forehead with her hand to block the dazzling light, and looked up, catching a glimpse of a familiar and deep tall figure not far away.
She was stunned, blinking her eyes, somewhat unable to believe it.
That figure was still there.
In a crisp military uniform, his posture was as tall as a pine, standing alone, his military cap half-covering his cold and sharp brow bone, his appearance heroic.
As if sensing something, he raised his eyes, his eyes like a pool. When he saw that beautiful face, a smile bloomed in his black eyes.
The young officer walked forward slowly.
Every step was as if measured by a ruler, his pace steady and firm.
Watching that familiar figure walk closer, Lin Zhao trotted over.
In an instant, she stopped two meters away from the man.
"Gu Chenghuai?" She called out uncertainly.
The smile in Gu Chenghuai's eyes deepened, the smile gentle and intoxicating, "It's me."
Lin Zhao smiled suddenly, visibly happy, her eyes shining as if they contained countless stars.
"Gu Chenghuai!" She called out happily.
The moment the voice fell, she rushed up to hug the man, her petite body throwing into the man's chest, her smile bright and dazzling.
In the corner, Li Fen muttered, "...... Zhaozhao didn't say wrong, her man is indeed handsome."
Eating really well.
Really good life!!
Wang Ju nodded quickly, her eyes brighter than usual, trying hard to shrink her presence, but couldn't take her eyes back.
Really a match.
Gu Chenghuai sensed two lines of sight, his deep cold eyes looked over, sharp as a knife.
Li Fen felt her body stiffen, pulled the slow-to-react Wang Ju, and ran quickly.
"Sister Fen, why run?" Wang Ju's reluctant voice sounded.
"......" Little girl, why is her dullness so full.
Over there.
"Gu Chenghuai, is it really you who came back?!" Lin Zhao still felt dazed.
"When did you come back, why didn't you tell me in advance."
Gu Chenghuai looked at her, his black eyes reflecting his wife's figure, and said in a low voice: "Originally I was going to tell you, but you hung up the phone so fast, I didn't have time."
Lin Zhao looked up at the young man, a head shorter than him, but her momentum was a big cut higher than his.
"What do you mean? Just met, and you blame me." She scolded, her voice crisp.
Used her slender and beautiful fingers to poke Gu Chenghuai's chest, hummed: "Gu Chenghuai, what did you say when you begged me to marry you?"
"You said you would be good to me for a lifetime, would put me on the tip of your heart, wouldn't make me angry, now how are you doing? Only married for a few years and you forgot, right..."
Gu Chenghuai listened to these reproaches, didn't see anger, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook out a smile.
"My fault." The deep gold and cold jade voice was wrapped in gentleness.
"Didn't blame you, it's me who didn't say, wanted to give you a surprise." He said patiently.
Lin Zhao was coaxed well in an instant, the corners of her mouth raised.
"Cubs' father, otherwise pinch me, I always feel like I'm dreaming."
Gu Chenghuai smiled and handed over his hand, saying unhurriedly: "Bite me."
His hands were distinct in joints, thin and long, beautiful enough to make Lin Zhao have a hand-control problem.
She pulled down the young man's hand, ten fingers interlocked with her own, looked down, her eyes curved into crescent moons.
The tone of voice was not very good.
"Why should I bite you, I'm not Lu Baozhen."
Gu Chenghuai held Lin Zhao's hand back, leading her forward, "Who is Lu Baozhen?"
"Lu Yizhou's own daughter, you forgot?" Lin Zhao tilted her head to look at him.
"Mm, no impression, what happened to her?" Gu Chenghuai never remembered irrelevant people. In his world, Zhaozhao was the first important, and then the four cubs.
"She bit Hearing Hearing Erzai, biting a bowl-sized tooth mark on Hearing Hearing Erzai's hand." Lin Zhao said angrily.
Gu Chenghuai almost laughed out loud.
Bowl-sized tooth mark.
If he remembered correctly, that little girl from the Lu family wasn't even as big as the twins. How big must her mouth be to bite a bowl-sized bump.
Really cute.
The young officer who was made love-brained by his wife responded seriously, "Indeed excessive!"
"Right, right." Lin Zhao said repeatedly, worry flowing in her eyes, "I'm really afraid that the scar on Hearing Hearing Erzai's hand won't fade."
Gu Chenghuai calmed down steadily, "Hearing Hearing Erzai is a boy, having a scar is no..."
That word 'matter' hadn't been said yet, and he was controlled in place by Lin Zhao's frowning expression.
"You don't understand." She sighed.
The scar isn't the point, the point is the scar bitten by Lu Baozhen. Lin Zhao was afraid that because of that scar, Hearing Hearing Erzai would grow a love-brain.
Sigh.
Gu Chenghuai didn't say anything else; he really didn't understand.
Thinking that Zhaozhao's head had been injured, he stopped, held her face, and looked carefully.
"How is your head? Where is the injury?" His expression was focused, his black eyes full of warmth.
Lin Zhao pointed vaguely to the place on her forehead, full of grievances, "Here, here, I was smashed with a bowl-sized bump, and fainted directly. Do you know what's more excessive, your sister, after she smashed me fainted, she ran! She just ran like that!"
"If it weren't for Big Cub and Hearing Hearing Erzai, you would have become a widower by the time you came back, and could even eat my feast..." ===== CHAPTER 68 =====
