Chuan Shu Qi Leng: I own a department store

But Lin An grabbed Xu Wanning's ankle with a strong hand, "Follow me, you don't have to feel embarrassed."

After saying that, he took off Xu Wanning's shoes directly, regardless of Xu Wanning's objection.

But after seeing Xu Wanning's feet clearly, his expression suddenly changed, and his voice was a little trembling: "Why are your feet like this?"

Xu Wanning's feet were red from the cold, and there were even a few chilblains, and there were vague signs of pus.

Mother Lin had already gone to the bedroom. She originally wanted to leave the space to the couple who had not seen each other for a long time. But when she heard Lin An's voice, she immediately ran to the living room and asked anxiously: "What's wrong? What's wrong?" ?What’s wrong with Aning’s feet?”

No one answered her, so she looked over. When she saw the frostbite on Xu Wanning's feet, she frowned and said, "Why is it so cold? When I was in Dajiang Village, the climate was several degrees colder than this. I didn’t see any frostbite on your feet!”

Xu Wanning retracted her feet hard and put them into the hot water.

The hot water mist enveloped her feet, making her feel itchy and uncomfortable, but also gave her an indescribable sense of comfort.

"Why did the feet become like this?" Lin An's eyes were filled with deep distress.

Xu Wanning explained with a smile: "Last winter in Dajiang Village, because I wore thick cotton shoes and socks made by my mother, kept the brazier burning, and didn't walk around outside when it was cold, I didn't get frostbite."

"But this winter, I was running around outside almost every day. For the sake of appearance, I wore thin shoes, so I got a few chilblains. But it's not a problem. I will apply some medicine at night and it will be better."

Xu Wanning looked at Lin An's gradually red eyes, holding his face with both hands, funny and helpless: "It doesn't matter, at least the feet are protected by shoes. Many people will get frostbite, which is nothing strange."

Lin An did not dare to look directly into Xu Wanning's eyes. He lowered his eyes and took off the other shoe for her, and put her foot into the hot water with a forceful movement.

Xu Wanning actually doesn't like having her feet washed, it always feels a little weird.

But Lin An's attitude was stronger than hers, so she had no choice but to let Lin An wash her feet.

After the water cooled down, Lin An took a dry handkerchief and carefully wiped the water stains from Xu Wanning's feet, even the seams between her toes, and he was careful not to touch her frostbite every time. .

The level of care even amazed Xu Wanning herself.

"Anzi, put this on for Aning."

Mother Lin held a pair of thick cotton socks in her hand. "I just bought these a few days ago. I thought they would no longer be used. I just gave them to An Ning to wear today."

As an out-and-out Heilongjiang native, Lin's mother had been living in Heilongjiang and had long been accustomed to the severe cold climate in Heilongjiang, so that the winter in Beijing had no impact on her at all.

What's more, Mother Lin took advantage of her age, so she put on cotton trousers and cotton shoes early. It didn't matter whether they looked good or not. As long as she was strong and strong, the most important thing was not to cause trouble to her children. Fortunately.

Therefore, even though it was already December, she did not suffer from frostbite.

She bought this pair of socks from an old sister who also came from the Black Province. She thought they were good, but she didn't expect that she actually bought them.

Lin An took the socks and was about to put them on Xu Wanning's feet, but Mother Lin stopped him again.

"Put this ointment on Aning. The effect will be good."

"I can do it myself."

Xu Wanning tried to reach out to take it, but Lin An avoided her hand and applied ointment to her wound.

After the ointment was absorbed, he gently put on Xu Wanning's socks and put on her cotton-padded shoes.

"how do you feel?"

"It's warm and very comfortable."

"That's good." Lin An breathed a long sigh of relief.

As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Wanning heard Jin Chu's whirring voice.

"Dad, we are back!"

Several children ran into the main room in an orderly manner. When they saw Xu Wanning sitting side by side with Lin An, their pupils suddenly dilated and they looked at her in disbelief.

"Mom, you're finally back!" Jin Chu was the first to throw herself into Xu Wanning's arms, raised her face and looked at her with tears in her eyes: "Mom, I miss you so much."

"Mom misses you too." Xu Wanning rubbed Jin Chu's hair: "I'm sorry, mom promised you to come back early, but it took so long to leave."

After being separated so many times, the children were actually used to Xu Wanning often not being able to return home within the agreed time.

But the sadness of parting and the joy of seeing each other still often pervade them.

Jin Chu nuzzled Xu Wanning and coquettishly for a while before taking out the money from his coat pocket.

Basically, it's only [-] cents a piece.

"Mom, I want to discuss something with you, but you have to promise me first and you can't be angry with me."

"Sure, I promise you." Xu Wanning answered without hesitation.

She knows that the children she has taught will never do bad things.

Jinchu then said: "Just now when we went to watch a movie with my aunt, we gave Zhuang Zhuang and Chunhua the photos we took together last time. Many aunts saw it and asked us what we said last time. It doesn’t count.”

"What did I say?" Xu Wanning pointed to the tip of her nose and asked confusedly, "What did I say?"

"Oh, that's what you said, if you can take a photo for fifty cents." Jinchu explained: "When those aunts and uncles saw the photo, they were all very excited. Because I don't want everyone to misunderstand what you said, mom." But I had no faith, so I made the decision without permission."

Jinchu held the money in his hand: "So they gave me the money first and agreed to take pictures for them tomorrow."

Xu Wanning understood clearly and naturally wouldn't blame Jin Chu.

After all, she had said before that taking pictures was free, but she had to pay for the film and photo development herself.

Now that everyone has paid the money in advance, how can she be angry with Jin Chu who is protecting her reputation?

However, Xu Wanning said with some embarrassment: "But, I have to go to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences tomorrow, and there are some follow-up matters to be resolved. I will have to go home in the afternoon. I don't have time to take pictures for them."

"Dad is at home!" Jinchu pointed at Lin An: "Dad said he is going to take a long, long vacation. And dad can also take photos. Just ask him to take photos for those aunts tomorrow!"

Jinchu answered matter-of-factly, never thinking about the practical issues at all.

For example, Lin An was already the battalion commander after all, so it was somewhat inappropriate for him to take photos for others.

But to Xu Wanning's surprise, Lin An actually agreed.
