Small Shop Owner in the 1960s

Seeing the hesitation on her face, Lin Qingbai smiled with a pursed mouth, "What's the matter, what's the matter?"

"...It's something."

Lin Qingbai raised her eyebrows and smiled slightly when she saw that she didn't want to say, "Okay, the appointment will do next time."

Seeing him talk so well, Xu Nannan still couldn't bear it anymore. "It happens to go to the provincial capital to do errands. You will be waiting for me in the cinema before that time, and I will come to you when I'm done."

"Okay." Lin Qingbai responded without even thinking about it.

After entering the house, Xu Nannan began to think about how to do his own affairs during the weekend and how to keep Lin Qingbai from noticing it. After thinking about it, it doesn't seem to be difficult. Anyway, go directly to get the goods, give the money, receive Taobao...a date!

Lin Qingbai went all the way back to the county committee compound, thinking about things in his heart, frowning and sighing sometimes. When he arrived at the county committee compound, a smile appeared on his face again.

"Director Lin is back." The guard Lao Ke greeted with a smile.

"Master Ke has worked hard," Lin Qingbai sent him a cigarette. Old Ke narrowed his eyes, took it, and whispered, "Someone is looking for Minister Liu's house today. It's a woman. It seems to be Minister Liu and his son's object. Family. What auntie's it is."

The relationship between Lin Qingbai and Liu Jianjun has changed, and the people in the compound are not clear. But everyone agreed. The two people don't care about the conflict. Anyway, if the other party has something, it's not wrong to talk to the other side. Moreover, compared with Minister Liu, this Minister Lin can be said to be very popular, and Lao Ke is no exception.

Hearing what Lao Ke said, Lin Qingbai's eyes flashed, and he smiled, "Master Ke is really good at seeing and listening to all directions. It's good to have you watching in our county committee compound."

Finished talking and left with a smile.

Master Ke was smoking a cigarette, and his face was full of creases with a smile.

Just before reaching the corridor upstairs, the magistrate Sun's wife and an aunt walked out. Lin Qingbai had a good memory, and she recognized it after a glance. She was the daughter-in-law of the cousin of County Chief Sun's house and was also Sun Gongan's mother.

The daughter-in-law of County Magistrate Sun said hello with a smile, "Minister Lin is back, it's late every day."

Before Lin Qingbai had spoken, Aunt Sun next to him said, "Minister Lin, you came back late, but I don’t know that someone came to Minister Liu’s house today. It’s Liu Hongjun’s aunt who messed with men and women. You say this is the atmosphere these days. Right, how can you do such a shameful thing? The girls who come out of such a family are not good things. Even if they are married, they will definitely be restless in the future."

Lin Qingbai's face was stern, "Whether it's good or not, this is a matter for Minister Liu's family. You can easily make County Chief Sun offend people if you say that to other people's family members."

The magistrate Sun's wife was also cold, "Her aunt, don't talk ill of others behind her back." She has heard all the guns and guns, and she doesn't understand that Minister Lin is as good as she is?

Aunt Sun didn’t know if Lin Qingbai had heard it, so she quickly said, “Oh, look at me, don’t I just talk about it. Minister Lin hasn’t got a partner yet, so you have to look for it. Find a white man from a pure family background, good character Yes. Would you like me to introduce you."

Lin Qingbai's eyes were cold, and he smiled, "I've got a partner, I'm about to get engaged, and I'll have a drink with Mayor Sun."

After speaking, squinted and went upstairs.

"Huh, still engaged? Such a person, still engaged? What did Minister Lin think, did not understand what I said?" Aunt Sun couldn't figure it out.

County Magistrate’s wife sneered, “His aunt, I’m busy these days, but I don’t have time to entertain you. You have time to take care of Pingping and Xiaoan at home.” Minister Lin is right. This person will really offend grandson. People. Looking at that, Minister Lin guessed it all in his heart, and he still needs to make it clear to others afterwards.

Liu Jianjun's family also talked about this. As soon as Liu Jianjun went home, he heard his wife say this, and his face changed. He really doesn’t know that Lin Qingbai and the Xu family are in such a relationship. If it is really such a relationship, Lin Qingbai had helped him in the police station before. Is it because of another purpose, obviously delaying it, in fact it is also I want him to step back and recognize the Xu family. After all, Xu Hong was the cousin of his target, who was a very close relative.

Seeing that his face is not good, Liu Jianjun’s wife said, "I’m not sure about this, or you can find a chance to ask Minister Lin. Otherwise, I don’t know what to do. I really see that family member. It's a crime. It's not easy to get rid of the face of Minister Lin."

Liu Jianjun was also quite uncomfortable. Had it not been for his son now under Lin Qingbai's hands, he would have questioned him a long time ago.

I was feeling uncomfortable, and the door of my house was knocked.

When Liu Jianjun's wife opened the door, she was Director Gao's wife. "We Lao Gao said that we haven't got together for a long time. No, I'm thinking about inviting your Lao Liu to dinner."

"It's so embarrassing." Liu Jianjun's wife laughed and looked back at her man.

"Old Gao is looking for it, that must be going, I'll bring a good bottle of wine." Liu Jianjun endured the depression in his heart, and went to the cupboard to get his own liquor while smiling.

Liu Jianjun also planned to ask Director Gao to ask about this. He just entered Director Gao's house and watched Lin Qingbai sitting there too. His face suddenly stiffened.

Director Gao smiled and said, "Old Liu is here, I also told Brother Lin, I want to have a drink with you today."

Liu Jianjun came in carrying the wine, smiled and said nothing.

The food was on the table, some of them were called from the cafeteria, and some were vegetables from the home of Director Gao. Director Gao was happy to greet the two for dinner. "Eat and drink well, with average craftsmanship, you are welcome."

Lin Qingbai took a sip of wine, "My sister-in-law is very good at craftsmanship. I still think about asking my sister-in-law to help me get a table when I am engaged to my partner."

Upon hearing this, Director Gao’s wife came out of the small kitchen with a smile, “That’s a good relationship, and it’s okay to leave this to me. When did you get engaged, I’ll pay attention to you, and let’s go back to the cafeteria. The master will leave some good materials, so I have to make a table."

"I haven't discussed with the elders in her family, it shouldn't be far away."

"Oh, let me see, just get married." Director Gao's wife said. "Province has to set up another table when we get married."

"We haven't reached the age yet, so we can only get engaged first." Lin Qingbai smiled.

Lin Qingbai's age must have arrived, that is, the age of the subject has not arrived. Oh, I don't know which little girl it is that can make people like Minister Lin rush to get engaged and worry about running away.

After listening to the topic, Liu Jianjun finally couldn't help it, and said with a smile, "Speaking of Minister Lin's object, I have heard something about it. My son's newly engaged partner and Minister Lin's object are relatives." "

Director Gao and his wife were stunned.

This is a coincidence.

Lin Qingbai listened and said straightforwardly, "My target's surname is Yu, and it has nothing to do with the Xu family. Minister Liu, don't talk nonsense in front of my target then."

Listening to Lin Qingbai's words, Liu Jianjun suddenly choked. Could it be that the woman was really talking nonsense?

While hesitating, I listened to Lin Qingbai, "I don't care what others think, anyway, she doesn't recognize relatives, I definitely don't recognize them. If anyone talks nonsense outside in my name, I don't agree."

At this time, there is a story in it.

It's just other people's family affairs, Minister Lin doesn't talk about it, and no one asks too much. It's Liu Jianjun in the clouds and mist. It's just that I no longer doubt Lin Qingbai as before, worrying that he made a mistake and make Lin Qingbai unhappy.

The next day, Lin Qingbai picked up Xu Nannan early in the morning, sent Li Jing to the county party committee to find Liu Jianjun's house, and said things in their name. But I didn't talk about Li Jing's involvement in Liu Jianjun. After this incident, he also seemed to see a little problem emerging. Liu Jianjun was a time bomb, and it was good for him to temporarily stabilize. When something really happened, he would definitely be restless. I won't talk to this little Nizi about this kind of man.

When Xu Nannan heard it, he almost arrived early in the morning.

In front of her, she couldn't look at each other, and her eyebrows were cold and right. As a result, she had friendships with others behind her back. What do you want to do?

Seeing her upset, Lin Qingbai rubbed her cheek soothingly, "Don't be angry, I'll tell you. I don't hide these things from you. But I don't want to affect your mood." After Xu Hong's incident last time , He felt that some things shouldn't be kept secret from Nan Nan at the beginning.

"I'm not going to be angry with such a person, but it's no way to make her mess around like this. Don't interfere in this matter. I'll talk to someone who can control her."

Asking Lin Qingbai, a big man, to fight with Li Jing, she felt that she overestimated Li Jing.

Lin Qingbai smiled, "Okay, I don't care."

When the car got on the road, Lin Qingbai sighed again, "I went back to the compound yesterday, and an old aunt stopped me and wanted to introduce me to someone. I said I had a partner, and people didn’t believe it. Not only she didn’t believe it, but the others in the compound. People don’t believe me, saying they have never seen you before."

When Lin Qingbai said that someone introduced him to him, Xu Nannan almost exploded. There are still people who are worried about it. Hearing the following words, she thought, she hadn't been to linger around Lin Qingbai.

"Then how about I find a chance to see you?" Xu Nannan said.

Before, Lin Qingsong dangled beside Lin Qingbai, which attracted the attention of lesbians, but she ignored that Lin Qingbai was also very attractive. Now hearing Lin Qingbai say this, the sense of crisis has also come. Must go to swear an oath of sovereignty.

Lin Qingbai said, "This is too deliberate, you say, let's get engaged. Just deal with the object, in and out, I am worried about people's gossip. Let's take advantage of the opportunity to get engaged, and invite them to have a table of wine. The compound knows that I am a person with a master." He said this casually, and seemed to be really proposing a solution.

When Xu Nannan heard about the engagement, he was a little frustrated, "Is it too early to get engaged now?" The partner is still far from getting married, but when he gets engaged, he feels that marriage seems to be near.

"It's getting late. Didn't you say that your friend Zhu Fang gets married and you have to prepare in advance. Let's get engaged first, and we will start saving things for marriage in a while. Why do we have to save for a year?

"makes sense."

"In this way, when I pick you up in the afternoon, I will stop by my grandma at home and listen to the opinions of the elderly. You don't have to worry about it, you don't have to worry about anything, I just do it. It's the same thing with the client. . There is nothing more than a table of banquets."

"...Okay." I always felt something was wrong, the engagement and marriage matters were arranged so logically.

When they arrived at the mine, Xu Nannan didn't think about whether Lin Qingbai's arrangement was good or not. She had to find a way to solve the matter of Li Jing.

There was no common language with Li Jing. Xu Nannan went directly to the mine to find Xu Jiansheng who was supervising the work.

Xu Jiansheng was covered with dust. Seeing Xu Nannan coming over, his face was a bit surprised.

Thinking that he treats Xu Ling better now, Xu Nannan didn't show his face like before, and said calmly, "I have something to tell you."

Xu Jiansheng nodded, confessed to the workers around him twice, and followed her to the side.

Xu Nannan didn't mean anything, so he directly sent Li Jing to the county party committee and told Li Jing about their relationship. In the end, "No matter if Lin Qingbai and I are the target, she shouldn't mention this to others. Since we broke the relationship at the beginning, what's the point of mentioning it now." If it is normal, she doesn't care. But Li Jing mentioned what this is for, this is just trying to get involved and use Lin Qingbai's relationship. Why is she Li Jing! Don't say that she and Lin Qingbai are only partners, even if they are really married to Lin Qingbai, they have nothing to do with Li Jing.

Xu Jiansheng's face was also unsightly. He didn't even know that Li Jing went to the county party committee to find Xu Hong's object. He even pulled Nan Nan and her object in.

"I'll take care of this, don't worry, there is no next time."

Xu Nannan nodded, and when he left, he said again, "Xiaoling is a good boy, I hope you can cherish it." She doesn't need the affection of the old Xu family. Maybe Xiaoman has been used to it all these years, but Xu Ling is with her parents. Growing up, I hope she can have a healthy family.

With Xu Jiansheng's assurance, Xu Nannan put the matter down for the time being.

If Li Jing still doesn't listen, she will make it clear to others that she has nothing to do with Li Jing while she is engaged. Even if people gossiping, she doesn't care. No, when did she agree to the engagement? Xu Nannan patted his head, feeling as if he had been brainwashed.

Here, Xu Jiansheng kept holding his breath, and when he got off work at noon, he returned to the house with a sullen face.

Li Jing was in a good mood and was serving food to the children. This time she didn't treat Xiaoling badly and let her eat first. Looking up, Xu Jiansheng came back and immediately went to serve him with a smile.

She planned that when the children went to school and Xu Jiansheng went to work, she would go to the county party committee to sit down again. If you go too much, don’t you get familiar with those who come and go? In the future, by the way, I will get to know the daughter-in-law of the chief, the daughter-in-law of the county magistrate, the daughter-in-law of the secretary, and so on, and she will get in this circle.

If you want to trust someone to do things, isn't that simple and easy.

At that time, she would have eaten commercial food, and no one had to look at her face.

Xu Jiansheng looked at her with a smile on her face, and the suffocation in her heart became more and more untenable. When Xu Long and Xu Lei had gone out, and Xu Ling had finished eating, he urged Xu Ling to go to school.

When the children left, he put his chopsticks down and looked at Li Jing with a sullen face, "Did you go to the county committee?"

Li Jing grabbed the chopsticks of the dish, and then smiled casually, "Aren't I going to help Honghong contact the relationship."

"Did Jianhai's fight be lighter?" Xu Jiansheng said coldly.

"Old Xu, what do you mean?" Xu Jianhai's fight became her nightmare. Old Xu Ye mentioned it again.

"What do I mean, Xu Hong has finally settled that matter, so you shouldn't mix it up. Also, what did you say to others? Is it showing off Nannan's object, Li Jing, Li Jing. In your heart Is there any kindness to the child? Nan Nan is still there. If he hasn't gotten married yet, you can use other people's name to let people know how to think Nan Nan."

Xu Jianhai's voice was a little excited. For a family like theirs, Nan Nan was so young that it was hard to find such a good partner. The family must not be able to help, so I have to get together and pull the hind legs. Fortunately, he thought that Li Jing sincerely hoped that Nan Nan and the others would come back to live, co-authoring this is a condition for fancy people.

Li Jing listened to his criticism, her eyes reddened in grievance, "What's wrong with me, I was originally my daughter, and I can't mention it anymore."

"It's not anymore!" Xu Jiansheng patted the table fiercely. "Li Jing, I tell you, if you make trouble again, I will let you go back to the country. This time it is true. You have to thank Xiaoling. If this girl hadn't been taken care of by her mother, you should go back to the country now. "

"Old, old Xu..."

Xu Jiansheng didn't even look at her red eyes, so he threw his chopsticks and went out.

How did he think that this woman was virtuous, that she would take care of the family, and that she was a good wife. At that time, he himself was blind and blindfolded.

In the afternoon, Lin Qingbai came to pick up the people in a refreshing manner. His hair was trimmed, his head was sturdy, and the shirt inside was changed to a white one. Wearing a straight military uniform outside. She has wide shoulders, narrow waist and long legs.

Xu Nannan's eyes lit up, and he went to the back seat calmly.

His clothes were too neat to look at, she was embarrassed to grab, and simply grabbed the back seat.

"I told Xu Ling's father today. If that person goes to the county party committee again, you can tell me." Xu Nan said.

"Yeah." Lin Qingbai replied softly.

"Is it really going to talk about the engagement today?"

"Ok."

"Is it too early?" She thought about it again this afternoon, always feeling that it was too sudden.

"It's getting late. I'm still taking advantage of this week to buy some things I need. It will be next week at the earliest. A month has passed in a blink of an eye. After October, I will start to be busy for the end of the year. We don’t have time. We have to rush back to the capital again during the New Year. When we get engaged, we can’t talk nonsense when we go back."

Listening to Lin Qingbai's calculation of time, Xu Nannan suddenly discovered that it seemed to be such a thing. It seems that the engagement is almost the same at this time, anyway, sooner or later, it is better to get an engagement than to do it later when you are busy.

Lin Qingbai didn't hear Xu Nannan's retort in front of him, so he curled his lips slightly, and his happy eyes lit up.

This time it was delivered to the door, Lin Qingbai finally entered the house. And seriously proposed the plan of engagement to the two elders.

Hearing this, the two old men were shocked. Especially Grandma Yu, she usually feels that Lin Qingbai is very disciplined and would never come to the door casually. I didn't expect that this kid would raise things up as soon as he came to the door.

Seeing that the two elders were silent, Lin Qingbai said seriously, "Grandpa and grandma, I am very solemn and make this request seriously. I hope you two elders can promise me."

Grandma Yu glanced at Grandpa Yu, and Grandpa Yu thought for a while, sighed melancholy and said nothing.

They had been expecting Nannan to have an object before, and they were also very happy when they had actually dealt with the object. But now Lin Qingbai mentioned the matter of getting engaged, and suddenly found in his heart that his granddaughter was going to get married. Once married, you can no longer live at home.

Lin Qingbai kept looking at the two elders, seeing the expressions of the two of them, and smiled, "Nan Nan was also thanks to my grandma's care at the beginning. I have no relatives here. If my grandma doesn't dislike it, after I married Nan Nan, Come over for dinner during the day."

Hearing these words, Grandpa Yu and Grandma returned to their vibes, and said repeatedly, "Family, what do you say you dislike. You can come over whenever you want."

Xu Nannan listened to the side, her face looked embarrassing. Isn't this just about getting engaged? I just went to get married. Even life after marriage emerged.

She hadn't fully understood yet, the three of them had already begun to talk about the details of the engagement.

Lin Qingbai meant that there must be a table. But here, please invite relatives and friends in the neighborhood to have a meal, and he will make another table at the county party committee. In this way, people around both sides will know about this.

Grandpa Yu and Grandma Yu had no worries, and they naturally agreed with him.

Engagement is a good thing. Between engagement and marriage, in fact, there is only a difference of a marriage certificate. In the future, the young couple will get closer, and they will not be afraid of others gossiping.

They are grandparents, and they can't watch and care about them. They don't have to worry about them if they get engaged.

After Lin Qingbai had dinner here and Xu Nannan sent him out, he finally found an opportunity to ask him, "I just wanted to understand, why are you so eager to get engaged."

As soon as she thought about it by herself, she realized that Lin Qingbai seemed to be anxious about getting engaged. She even wondered if Lin Qingbai had planned it a long time ago. Anyone who introduced him to him would be an excuse.

Lin Qingbai stood still, his expression becoming more calm in the dim night.

"Nannan, I just want you to understand that I am not an outsider. If you have anything, you can tell me."

Xu Nannan looked at him in wonder. "Say what?"

Lin Qingbai fixedly looked at her for a moment, smiled and rubbed her hair, "You can say anything. Okay, I will go back first. We will go to the provincial city together tomorrow."

When he left, Xu Nannan opened his eyes and looked at his back, feeling a little confused in his heart.
