Reborn in the 60s and adopted

The speed of riding a bicycle is much faster than walking, and it didn’t take long before they arrived at the Tang family’s door.

Tang Mei jumped off the car lightly and happened to meet Tang Kevin who was about to go out to play. Tang Kevin was very excited to see his sister who had returned from a trip, and immediately opened his arms and hugged Tang Mei tightly.

"Sister, you're back so soon after visiting Sister Jiaojiao's house?" Tang Kevin asked expectantly.

Tang Mei gently stroked her brother's hair and replied with a smile: "Sister hasn't gone yet."

Tang Kevin raised his innocent little face and asked curiously, "Then why did you come back?"

"The brother behind me said he wanted to come to our house, but he couldn't find the way, so I came back to show him the way." Tang Mei said as she glanced at Ling Xiao behind her with a hint of sarcasm out of the corner of her eye.

Hearing that his brother was coming to visit, Tang Kevin couldn't wait to run to the door. However, when he saw the tall figure standing there, he suddenly stopped.

"Sister, you call him brother, but this must be your uncle!" Tang Wenkai scratched his head in confusion.

Tang Mei couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"My brother is really awesome and brave." Tang Mei gave her brother a thumbs up.

Lin Xiao parked the car in the corner of the yard while smiling, then squatted down, looking at the cute little guy in front of him with joy, and said in a very gentle tone: "I am indeed a brother, not an uncle."

However, Tang Kevin shook his head vigorously, waving his hands to express his disagreement: "No, no, you are so tall, you definitely can't be my brother, you can only be my uncle."

Seeing that the little guy was so persistent, Lin Xiao decided to guide him in a different way, so he asked curiously: "Didn't you call him Tang Jianguo just now? What do you call him?" Tang Kevin answered without hesitation: "Of course it's Brother Jianguo~"

Lin Xiao continued to persuade him: "But I am five years younger than your brother Jianguo, so logically speaking, shouldn't you call me brother?"

Hearing this, Tang Kevin raised his little head and began to think seriously. After a while, as if he suddenly understood, he said, "Hmm...it seems that I should call you brother."

Seeing this, Lin Xiao nodded with satisfaction and emphasized again: "It's not like, you should just call me brother."

At this time, Tang Mei, who was standing by, saw that the two of them were still struggling with the question of address, so she cleverly changed the subject and asked Lin Xiao with concern: "Have you had lunch?"

Lin Xiao shook his head, "Not yet."

"Then I'll go make you a bowl of noodles. Tang Kevin, you come and play with your brother." Tang Mei said gently.

"Don't worry, sister. I promise to complete the task." Tang Kevin patted his chest and answered confidently.

Not long after, Tang Mei brought the cooked noodles to the dining table in the kitchen and arranged them neatly.

"Lin Xiao, come and eat noodles!" Tang Mei stood at the kitchen door and shouted loudly towards the yard.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a response: "Coming!" Then, Lin Xiao walked quickly into the kitchen with his long legs.

Tang Kevin stared at the big bowl of fragrant noodles in front of him, and couldn't help swallowing his saliva. He licked his lips and muttered, "Wow, it smells so good..."

Lin Xiao was not at all restrained. He walked straight to the table, picked up a bowl and separated some noodles from the big bowl, then handed the bowl to Tang Kevin and said with a smile: "Brother will give it to you, eat it quickly, little guy."

Tang Kevin didn't bother to be polite with him. He took the bowl and started to wolf down the noodles.

As night fell, the sunset dyed half the sky red. Tang Yongli and Liu Lin also returned home. As soon as they entered the yard, they saw Lin Xiao playing with Tang Kevin.

"Are you... the kid from the Lin family? When did you come?" Tang Yongli walked up, gently hit Lin Xiao's shoulder, and asked with a smile.

"Uncle Tang, Aunt Tang, long time no see. I arrived this afternoon." Lin Xiao stood straight as a pine tree and responded with a serious face.

"Oh, great! You, that little brat, have grown so tall and strong now, and you also have a handsome appearance. Wife, go to the kitchen and cook some more delicious dishes." Tang Yongli turned around with a smile and instructed Liu Lin.

Liu Lin smiled warmly at Lin Xiao and said, "Xiaoxiao, please wait a moment. Auntie will prepare the meal."

Lin Xiao nodded obediently to show that he understood.

At this time, there was a noise in the house. It turned out that Tang Mei heard the sound of her parents coming home, and hurried out of the kitchen with a spatula in her hand.

"Mom and Dad, the food is ready, we can eat!" Tang Mei shouted happily.

Tang Yongli asked with a hint of doubt: "Girl, didn't you say you were going to town to do some work? Why are you still staying at home?"

Tang Mei explained tactfully, "Look, Brother Lin Xiao has come all the way here to be my guest. As the host, how can I leave him alone? Of course I have to stay at home and entertain him well!"

After hearing this, Tang Yongli nodded with satisfaction and praised: "Well, what a sensible and good girl!"

After dinner, Tang Yongli arranged for Tang Mei to take Lin Xiao to the dilapidated house to visit his parents and bring along tonight's dishes.

As night fell, everything was quiet and the two walked side by side, strolling under the moonlight.

"Meimei." Lin Xiao called softly.

These two words seemed to have magical power, causing Tang Mei's body to tremble involuntarily, and an indescribable numbness spread throughout her body.

She turned her head and looked at the familiar yet strange man in front of her, frowning slightly: "Hey, can you please stop calling me that?"

Lin Xiao was slightly startled, then smiled: "Okay then, Xiaomei."

"What Xiaomei!" Tang Mei was annoyed. "Are you asking for a beating on purpose? I have told you many times to call me by my full name, Tangmei, Tangmei, Tangmei!"

Hearing this, Lin Xiao couldn't help but chuckle. His laughter was very low, but it carried an inexplicable attraction.

"What are you laughing at?" Tang Mei glared at him, feeling increasingly irritated.

However, Lin Xiao didn't care about her reaction, and just said lightly: "After so many years, you are still the same, not changed at all. But with your current skills, I'm afraid you can't beat me."

Tang Mei snorted coldly, ignored him, and quickened her pace to move forward. Lin Xiao followed behind her at a moderate pace, and they always kept a distance from each other.

Before long, they arrived at the dilapidated house. Tang Mei knocked on the door gently as usual, making three long and two short noises.

After a while, there was a sound of footsteps inside the door, and then the door opened. Zhou Shanshan appeared at the door, holding a piece of unwashed clothes in her hand.

"Meimei, you're here, come in." When Zhou Shanshan saw Tang Mei, a happy smile immediately appeared on her face.

"Auntie, have you eaten?" Tang Mei greeted with a sweet smile.

"I just finished eating. How about you? Are you hungry? Do you want me to get you something to eat?" Zhou Shanshan asked with concern.

"No, thank you, Auntie." Tang Mei shook her head and walked into the house.

Zhou Shanshan smiled and nodded, and said softly: "Yes, I have already eaten. I made a lot of food at noon, and I can eat it after heating it up a little in the evening."

After Tang Mei walked into the yard, Zhou Shanshan noticed that there was someone following her. Because it was dark and the light was dim, she couldn't see the face of the person clearly, and she couldn't help but feel alert.

"Meimei, who is this? Why are you bringing a man home?" Zhou Shanshan's tone revealed some doubt and worry.

"Mom, it's me, Xiaoxiao!" the other person replied.

However, Zhou Shanshan seemed to have an illusion and was a little dazed for a moment.

"What? Who?" she asked in disbelief.

Lin Xiao spoke again, his voice firm and clear: "Mom, it's me, Xiaoxiao."

Hearing this familiar voice, Zhou Shanshan was struck by lightning, and her body trembled violently. Then, she threw herself into Lin Xiao's arms without hesitation, and was so excited that she could hardly speak. Tears welled up in her eyes, and her throat was slightly hoarse with joy:

"Xiaoxiao, why are you here suddenly? Didn't I tell you not to come over..."

"Mom, so many years have passed and I haven't been able to visit you. And my uncle is also here, so I came all the way to see you today. Let's go inside and talk, okay?" Lin Xiao hugged his mother tightly, feeling the warmth of the long-awaited reunion.

Zhou Shanshan wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said happily: "Okay, okay! Come in, come in! Let's not stand at the door and talk, it will be bad if others see us." She took Lin Xiao's hand and walked into the house impatiently, her eyes full of ecstasy.

Several people came to the house where Lin Yunshen and Zhou Shanshan lived. As soon as they entered the door, they could see an extremely cute, soft and adorable little girl sitting on the bed.

"Mom, Sister Meimei!" The little girl greeted everyone very obediently. When she saw Tang Mei coming in, she immediately jumped off the bed excitedly and flew straight into Tang Mei's warm embrace like a happy little bird.

"Oh, my little lemon baby, you seem to have gained weight again!" Tang Mei happily hugged Lin Meng tightly in her arms, as if she was worried that she would accidentally fall to the ground.

Lin Xiao felt a little surprised at this time. He really couldn't understand when he had such a sister.

"Xiaoxiao, this is your sister Lin Meng." Zhou Shanshan said to Lin Xiao with a smile.

"Come on, little lemon, call me brother. This is your real brother!" Zhou Shanshan gently stroked Lin Meng's hair and encouraged her to greet her brother.

Hearing her mother's words, Little Lemon turned her head from Tang Mei's arms, blinked her big eyes that were as clear as crystal, and looked straight at Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao carefully took the little guy from Tang Mei's arms and asked softly, "I am your brother Xiao, little lemon, how old are you this year?"

Lin Meng stretched out three chubby little fingers in a baby voice and made a "3" gesture.

Lin Xiao stared at Zhou Shanshan closely, with confusion and dissatisfaction flashing in his eyes: "Mom, why didn't I know I had a sister? You have to explain it to me!" There was a questioning tone in his voice.

Zhou Shanshan touched her nose guiltily and stammered, "It's not that... there hasn't been a suitable opportunity to write to you..." She avoided his gaze and didn't dare to look Lin Xiao in the eye.

"But my sister has grown up so much! So many years have passed, and you have never thought of writing a letter to me or grandpa to report your safety? If I hadn't happened to find out that you, dad, and uncle were assigned to the Bayi Brigade, I might have really lost all news of you!" Lin Xiao complained excitedly.

"Oh, Xiaoxiao, Mom is also worried that it will get you and grandpa involved. Don't blame mom, now you know our situation, don't you?" Zhou Shanshan acted as if it was a matter of course, as if she didn't think she had done anything wrong.

Lin Xiao looked at her guilt-free expression and sighed helplessly. He thought, after all, she is his biological mother, what can he do to her? He can only choose to be tolerant and understanding.

At this time, Lin Xiao asked, "What about my dad?" Obviously, he was more concerned about his father's whereabouts.

"Oh, he is in your uncle's room, just next door. You can just go find them directly." Zhou Shanshan replied, and then continued to busy herself with her own things.

When Lin Xiao was about to step out of the room after hearing this, Ling Yunsheng and Ling Yunkun happened to walk into the room.

Lin Yunkun suddenly hugged Lin Xiao tightly and shouted excitedly: "Good boy! I finally get to see you!"

Tang Mei couldn't help but be a little surprised, because this seemed to be the first time in recent years that she had witnessed Ling Yunkun express his true feelings so sincerely.

At this moment, Lin Xiao just came back to his senses from the shock brought by the sudden appearance of Little Lemon, and began to carefully look at his father, mother and uncle in front of him. Compared with a few years ago, their skin color was only slightly darker, and there was not much change. It can be seen that they are living a pretty good life in the Bayi Team.

"Everything is fine. Meimei's father takes good care of us. Now I don't have any heavy work to do, so I just teach the children in the literacy class in the village. They all respect our family very much, and there are always enthusiastic people who are eager to help with the heavy physical labor during the day." Lin Yunshen said with a gentle smile.
