Reborn in the 60s and adopted

Lin Xiao looked at Tang Mei with gratitude, knowing that if Tang Mei's father hadn't helped, his parents and uncle would have suffered a lot. And his sister might not be as chubby and lovable as she is now.

"Xiaoxiao, let's go to the next room and have a chat, the three of us." Lin Yunshen looked at his son with a smile on his face, his eyes full of satisfaction - the child had grown taller and stronger.

Lin Xiao nodded obediently, and then went to the next room with his father and uncle, leaving Tang Mei in the original room to play and amuse herself with Little Lemon.

Zhou Shanshan couldn't hold back her emotions any longer when she saw her son walk out of the room, and tears burst out like a broken dam. However, she had suppressed her grief in front of everyone, not wanting her son to see her crying, lest he worry about his grandfather.

Tang Mei was a little surprised by Zhou Shanshan's reaction at this time, because Zhou Shanshan had not cried before.

"Meimei, I'm so sorry to have embarrassed you. Our Xiaoxiao is a boy after all, and I really couldn't bear to let him see me cry, otherwise he would be worried about him staying with his grandfather." Zhou Shanshan explained while wiping the tears from her cheeks.

Tang Mei nodded in understanding, and then half-jokingly consoled her: "It's okay, Auntie, you can cry if you want. Don't be restrained in front of me. I won't feel as distressed as Uncle Lin."

Zhou Shanshan finally stopped crying and smiled: "You are such a clever girl, you always have so many ways to make me happy."

Time passed quietly, and about an hour later, Ling Xiao came to the room where Tang Mei was.

"Mom, I'll find a chance to visit you tomorrow night. It's getting late now, so Meimei and I will go to her house to rest first." Lin Xiao was very conflicted. On the one hand, he longed to be with his parents, but on the other hand, his father was worried that he would be seen by other villagers tomorrow morning. If he was reported, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Good boy, you have really grown up. You are tall and strong, even taller than your mother." Zhou Shanshan caressed her son's broad and solid shoulders affectionately, her hands trembling slightly.

Lin Xiao tightly grasped his mother's slightly rough hand and said softly, "Mom, Dad, I'll go first." He knew very well that if he continued to stay, his inner attachment would become stronger, and it would be more painful to leave.

So, Lin Xiao and Tang Mei set out on their journey home again.

"Xiaomei..." It was midnight and everything was silent. Lin Xiao's deep voice suddenly broke the tranquility of the night sky.

Tang Mei was puzzled and turned to look at where Lin Xiao was.

"What's wrong?" Her eyes were full of concern.

"Thank you and Uncle Tang for taking care of my family. I may have to trouble you again in the future." Lin Xiao said seriously.

"That's nothing! We have always taken care of each other, and Uncle Lin has been teaching me languages ​​of various countries. He can be said to be my mentor!" Tang Mei replied with a smile.

However, what Lin Xiao said next surprised Tang Mei: "Xiao Mei, I...I'm going to the army."

"Ah? Doesn't your family background come from a bad family? Logically speaking, you shouldn't be able to join the army, right?" Tang Mei was very surprised.

"Actually, my household registration has been with my grandfather since I was a child, so I had the opportunity to join the army this time. In addition, the reason why I chose to join the army is because I want to redress my family's grievances. After all, I must avenge my grandpa and grandma's blood feud!" When he said this, Lin Xiao's eyes flashed with determination and ferocity.

Tang Mei listened to him silently, feeling a little sad and sympathetic. She comforted him softly, "You must be careful in the army and protect your life. Only by staying alive can you redress your family, understand?" Her tone was particularly gentle, as if she was afraid of touching the sensitive and fragile heart deep inside Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao stared at her with deep and firm eyes, and said slowly: "Don't worry, I will be careful. After all, my life is still very useful." Tang Mei nodded slightly to show her agreement, and responded softly: "I'm glad you understand."

After a moment's silence, Lin Xiao seemed to have struggled internally, and finally mustered up the courage to ask, "Are you... planning to stay at home tomorrow, or go to town?" His voice was slightly low, revealing a hint of hesitation.

Tang Mei turned to look at him with clear and bright eyes, and asked, "How many days can you stay this time?" Lin Xiao thought for a moment, then replied, "Including tomorrow, a total of three days." Then he added, "In other words, I will leave the day after tomorrow morning."

Tang Mei nodded slightly to show that she understood the situation, and then said concisely and clearly: "Okay, I understand, let's go home." After that, she stepped forward with decisive steps.

Looking at Tang Mei's receding figure, Lin Xiao opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he closed his mouth hesitantly. He sighed secretly and followed Tang Mei's footsteps back home.

After arriving home, the two simply washed up and prepared to rest. The next morning, Tang Mei accompanied Lin Xiao to work in the fields. Taking this opportunity, Lin Xiao and his parents chatted about family matters while working, enjoying the rare reunion time.

In the blink of an eye, it was the third day... In the early morning, Tang Mei packed her clothes and put them into her schoolbag.

Liu Lin walked in and saw his daughter packed her things. He asked in confusion, "Daughter, what are you doing? Are you running away from home?"

Tang Mei explained with a smile: "Mom, I just went to Jiaojiao's house to play for a few days, how could I run away from home?"

After saying that, Tang Mei hugged Liu Lin and said coquettishly, "Mom, I can't bear to leave you and Dad!"

Liu Lin was very happy with Tang Mei's sweet words: "Okay, then you can go out and play for a few days and come back early. You can't stay at home for a few days, you will go to the provincial capital to study soon."

After Liu Lin finished speaking, a trace of melancholy appeared on his face.

"Mom, why don't you come with me to the provincial capital, so you can see me every day!" Tang Mei really couldn't bear to leave her family, and was wondering if she could take her parents and brother to the provincial capital.

"Silly girl, what are you talking about? Your dad can't leave, and your brother is about to go to elementary school. Okay, okay, hurry up and go, hurry up and go!" Liu Lin smiled and pushed Tang Mei into the yard.
