Chuan Shu Qi Leng: I own a department store

"With the army?"

"With the army?"

The first exclamation came from Xu Wanning, and the second came from Mother Lin who had just stepped into the kitchen.

Lin An nodded, "Yes. According to my current military rank, I can be assigned a single room. Although it is not very big, it can barely accommodate our family. There is also a nursery in the army and an elementary school for two children. All can be admitted unconditionally. Do you want to consider it?"

Xu Wanning felt shameful for a moment.

But she only hesitated for a few seconds before decisively refusing.

"My mother has inconvenient legs and feet, and Lin Quan married far away. I can't leave my mother alone in the village. Besides, I promised the captain that I would represent Dajiang Village to cook for the leaders from the capital the day after tomorrow. I broke my promise. There will definitely be no suitable candidate from the captain’s side.”

Of course, the most important thing was that she had to keep a certain distance from Lin An.

This man's appearance and family background were not outstanding, but he had a charm that could not be described in words. Xu Wanning was worried that she would inevitably be tempted if she stayed with him for a long time.

It’s not that I really don’t dare to compete with the heroine, but the problem is that the heroine is the author’s daughter. Can she, a cannon fodder wearing a book, really compete with her?

If she failed, wouldn't she have to hold a broken heart and lick her wounds alone? Therefore, you have to stand firm from the beginning and avoid this kind of failure.

"I didn't think carefully." Lin An apologized: "Mom, I was planning to take you to the provincial capital in the next two days to see your leg injury, but I have a reason to leave, so I can only wait until I come back next time. It’s the son who is unfilial.”

"Mom's leg is old. It may not be cured even if you go to the provincial capital. Anzi, just complete the tasks assigned by the organization. Mom, you don't have to worry about it."

The more Mother Lin said this, the more guilty Lin An felt.

He raised his eyes and looked at Xu Wanning, his lips moved slightly, and after a long while, he said slowly: "When I leave, you will have to take care of the house alone."

"What's the point? Mom treats me well and helps me, and the children are sensible. I just cook a few meals, and it's not hard at all."

Even enjoying it.

Lin An held back his words, but neither of the two people in front of him seemed sad about the upcoming separation. He could only swallow back those sensational words.

Changed, everyone changed.

In the past, every time he came home on vacation, his mother would mumble to him her inner grievances in a vague way. But now, looking at her radiant face, where did she look like she had been wronged?

"Aning, your meat is too minced, so I'll do it."

"It's better to break it up, it will be more delicious."

"But this way you won't be able to taste the texture of meat."

"Is our family still short of meat recently?"

"What you said makes sense." Mother Lin rolled up her sleeves, "I'll roll out the dumpling wrappers."

"Anzi, the dumplings haven't been wrapped yet. Why are you lighting a fire? It's a waste of firewood! Go, go, play with the two little ones. Don't do any harm to us two."

Lin An was kicked out of the kitchen just like that.

He went to the bedroom of the two children again. The children were reading and writing on their new desks, very focused.

He stared at it for a while, then tiptoed out.

There is a lot of firewood placed on a corner of the courtyard wall, and it is estimated that it will be able to burn for a month.

But there is still one and a half months before the New Year. The next time he comes back will be near the end of the New Year. He has run out of firewood and has to go into the mountains to pick it up.

It was inconvenient for my mother to drag her legs. Looking at Wan Ning's filial appearance, she probably wouldn't let her go into the mountains, so she had to go by herself. But with her thin arms and legs, she probably wouldn't be able to carry the firewood out.

It's better for him to go and do something for this family before he leaves.

Lin An was walking home carrying a bundle of firewood. When passing by the Educated Youth Courtyard, he saw Gu Jun looking furtively at the entrance of the trail from a distance.

Lin An had a really bad impression of Gu Jun.

When Xu Wanning's group of educated youths first arrived in Dajiang Village, Lin An happened to come back from vacation and met Xu Wanning several times by chance. Every time they met, her face was filled with a sunny smile, and she was good-looking, with fair skin and temperament. Well, it was different from the girls in the village or the girls he had come into contact with before.

But Lin An had no other ideas, because he knew that Xu Wanning came from Beijing, and her family was in good condition, so he would send her a large amount of money every month.

At that time, he had just stabilized in the army and his future was bleak. In addition, his family lived in a dilapidated house and had a sister who was two years younger than him and was about to get married.

Such a huge gap made him dare not miss Xu Wanning.

But that night, Xu Wanning lay on his bed.

Later he found out that he and Xu Wanning had been plotted by Gu Jun and Li Qianqian.

After waking up, he was very angry. Originally, he only admired Xu Wanning, far from liking her, but now he is completely tied together under someone's scheme.

He wanted to go to Gu Jun to settle the score, but was stopped by Xu Wanning.

In this way, Xu Wanning married him, even though she was unwilling to do so.

But he felt that he had treated Xu Wanning badly, and since he was in the army all year round and could only come back once every month or two, he followed her in everything.

As a result, she worsened her situation, not only treating his mother badly, but also neglecting her own children.

When Lin An received the anonymous letter in the army, he rushed to Dajiang Village in a hurry. On the way back, he had already thought about it. If Xu Wanning really did something that would make people and gods angry, he would not only divorce her, but also make her pay a heavy price for it!

But he didn't expect that when they met again, she would be completely different from what he remembered.

Lin An is completely attracted to the current Xu Wanning.

Therefore, when he saw Gu Jun's sneaky appearance, he became a little angry.

But wearing this kind of clothes, he couldn't hit people for no reason.

Unless the other party has done something illegal.

But except for Gu Jun craning his neck to look from time to time, there was no other movement, so Lin An had no choice but to go back first, carrying firewood.

After the whole family had eaten dumplings, Lin An chopped firewood and piled firewood, the children played in the yard, Lin's mother organized the kitchen, and Xu Wanning went to the brigade headquarters.

Just now, Aunt Zhu sent a message saying that Accountant Xu had prepared what she wanted and she had to go and have a look.

"Xu Zhiqing, look at what I bought, is it right? If there is anything inappropriate, I will buy it again."

"That's about it."

Basically what Xu Wanning wants are seasonings. The pork will be bought from Butcher Sun on the same day. The chicken can be bought from any house. Vermicelli and other similar items are available in every household.

But these seasonings are indeed not cheap! And the variety is not complete yet.

This is all the seasonings that Xu Wanning can find at the department store.
