Small Shop Owner in the 1960s

Everyone in the house is busy, and no one cares about Xu Nannan and Lin Qingsong going out.

The two of them didn't go far, they just watched their own vegetables in the yard. Covered with a layer of straw. I don't know what's planted below. Lin Qingsong looked at the room, "Let me tell you, my brother and Ximei are absolutely nothing."

Xu Nannan calmly said, "If I think they have something, can I still stand here?" If Lin Qingbai showed signs of showing signs of being with other women, she would leave immediately. No matter how good a man is, she is not uncommon for her to feel restless. Feel sad for a while, then regroup. Fortunately, Lin Qingbai performed well.

"Sour." Lin Qingsong grinned his teeth and said seriously, "But Ximei is not bad. Wasn't my brother coming back very late at that time? I can't tell anyone to go with my family. You don't. I know, at the time, my brother was very pitiful in the compound, saying that my brother had a hard time at home. Nothing like that. Since my brother came back, the delicious food and drink at home is definitely close to him. Then I will I was quite unhappy. I thought he was robbing me and ignored him. My brother was alone. At that time, Ximei was overwhelmed with love. He wanted to save my brother from the sea of ​​suffering and followed me. Brother ran behind. If you run too much, you will get used to it. Coupled with the relationship between the two families, it will be familiar. However, my brother never talked to her more. He went to the army after a short while, and returned less. Every time he comes back, Ximei will come."

In fact, he couldn't figure it out. With Ximei's attitude, his brother was covered with heat as a stone.

"..." Xu Nannan didn't know what to say. People are treating Lin Qingbai as a little pitiful to save. It is a pity that Lin Qingbai that she knows is not the kind of person who likes to be saved, he seems to like to save others. Such a strong person is treated as a little pitiful, and I don't know how it feels in my heart.

Xu Nannan suddenly felt like he wanted to laugh. But his face was still stern, "Your mother seems to like her." Needless to say, anyone with a discerning eye can see it.

Lin Qingsong chuckled, "My mother likes many people in this compound, but my mother can't care about my brother. Look at who looks good when he comes back, but my dad doesn't have a smile on him."

Xu Nannan has no worries in this regard. I just don't want Lin Qingbai to fall out with her family because of the things she was with. It feels too bloody, and it's not a TV series about the wealthy Cinderella. There is no need to drive out of the house and get married.

However, she was a little uncertain about Lin Changzheng's attitude just now. Even if Lin Changzheng really disagrees with her being with Brother Lin, it is very possible to use the relationship to transfer Brother Lin from Nanjiang. Then it will be troublesome.

"It's cold, what are you doing standing outside," Li Wan shouted from the window in the room.

Lin Qingsong blinked at Xu Nannan before entering the house. Xu Nannan also entered the house and waited for Lin Qingbai.

In the living room, Li Wan is knitting a sweater while Sun Ximei is reading a book, the picture is very harmonious. Lin Qingsong wanted to enter the house, but couldn't worry about Xu Nannan, so he simply stayed in the living room and sat.

Li Wan looked up at Xu Nannan, and chatted with Sun Ximei next to him, "Ximei, you have assigned work now."

"Assigned, go to the military area hospital."

"The distribution of college students is different. Once they come out, they will be military doctors." Li Wan sighed and looked at Xu Nannan again. "Nan Nan came out to work at this age and didn't read much."

Lin Qingsong's expression changed, "Mom, is it interesting to ask, how many people can study in China now?"

He thinks that his mother is over now. He doesn't like his sister-in-law. Don't talk to other people. Isn't it enough to run someone? If he wants his brother to be here, he has to turn his face.

"Isn't I just asking casually? Didn't I mean that I was engaged? I always want to understand. Nan Nan, don't you think?" Li Wan smiled gently.

Xu Nannan nodded and sighed, "I really didn't read many books before. No way, the family is poor. Who will let three generations of poor peasants in the family, right? We are poor people like this, poor and white. How can you go abroad like the young ladies of the landlords in the past Studying abroad. So we have to thank these revolutionary fighters and great people for giving us poor people the opportunity to study. Now we have also read a secondary school. But it’s much better than before. In order to serve the motherland, I’ll be early. He came out to work. Anyway, it can contribute to our great cause of building the country."

Lin Qingsong glanced at Li Wan next to her and snorted when she saw that her face was beginning to rise. That.

Li Wan's heart fluctuated, and Sun Ximei frowned and looked at Xu Nannan, "You comrade, be careful when you speak."

"Pay attention to what?" Xu Nannan said innocently. "Am I right?"

Really can't tell it's wrong. But it hurts too much.

Sun Ximei looked at the little girl, feeling a little confused. Why would Qingbai brother like such a girl, young, ignorant, and bad-tempered. I don't know if I feel sorry for the elders. I guess that Brother Qingbai was in Nanjiang alone, unaccompanied, and this was a loophole.

Li Wan was too angry, and could not quarrel with others, so she just got upstairs.

Sun Ximei hurriedly followed after seeing this.

"Hey, sister-in-law, you are amazing." Lin Qingsong admired.

Xu Nannan looked at him strangely, "I made your mother angry and left, aren't you angry?" It's his mother anyway.

Lin Qingsong said, "It's okay. It's better for the body." He felt that his mother was used to it, and he had to reach out and take care of his brother's affairs.

Xu Nannan didn't quite understand his brain circuit. I looked up at the direction upstairs and didn't know what I was talking about. I haven't come down after so long.

Lin Qingbai upstairs has just finished talking about his situation in Nanjiang with Lin Changzheng.

Lin Changzheng remained silent. When he finished speaking, he took a sip of tea while holding a teacup. "Looking at what you mean, I am planning to develop in Nanjiang for a long time. The leaders before you are still looking forward to your return."

"So far I am going to stay in Nanjiang."

"Well, since you have made a decision, I will not force you. But you asked Qing Song to tell me before, let me go to the front, what do you mean?"

Lin Qingbai said, "I have been reading the newspaper recently, and I feel that something is showing signs. But this is not true. I think it might be safer to go to the front line."

"What's wrong." Lin Changzheng glanced at him sharply, "Do you think it's not peaceful?"

"It's not that it's not peaceful, it's something that you can't control."

Sometimes, this kind of intuition is not clear. But instinct made him want to avoid it.

"Okay, I will consider it." Lin Changzheng left silently for a while before saying. Looking at his son's serious face, he said, "When you come back this time, you are more unaware of your aunt than before. I also know about that. But your aunt is also for your own good. Is it a family? ."

Lin Qingbai stood up, "I'll talk about this later, I'll go downstairs first." There are some things that can be put down without a single sentence.

Seeing him leaving like this, Lin Changzheng sighed. This child is still not kissing him after all.

"Brother Qingbai."

Just as Lin Qingbai was about to go downstairs, Sun Ximei got out of the room next to her with worry on her face, "Brother Qingbai, auntie is crying in anger. I'm crying in the room. You...maybe you are young and don't know what to say It's so serious, it hurts too much."

"What did Nan Nan say?" Lin Qingbai looked at her and said.

"It's Auntie Joke's background..."

"What does the whole sentence say?" Lin Qingbai said.

Sun Ximei didn't expect him to get to the bottom, so she had to say what Xu Nannan had said. Did not say the cause and effect.

Lin Qingbai nodded after listening, "No problem. If you think there is a problem, you can go to Nannan to discuss it." After speaking, he went straight downstairs.

"..." Sun Ximei was choked by his answer and was a little speechless. Why is Qingbai brother doing this now? Seeing Lin Qingbai go, she hurried back to Li Wan's room.

"Auntie, I just told Brother Qingbai that you were crying in anger. Brother Qingbai was actually protecting the lesbian." Sun Ximei felt too surprised. Although Lin Qingbai didn't like to talk before, he respected the elders in the family anyway.

Li Wan was leaning against the bed with red eyes. Hearing this, she wiped the corners of her eyes, "You shouldn't talk about me. He has opinions on me now. You say me, he definitely doesn't like listening. Ximei, auntie I can't help you in this matter. But after all, you and Qingbai have been in love for many years. Auntie believes this is incomparable."

Sun Ximei gave a hum. In the past, when Brother Qingbai was the most difficult, she was by her side. It was she who followed Qingbai without any regrets, did not let him be alone, and let the children in the compound play with him. It doesn't make sense that a later one even compared her.

It feels like a peach tree that I have planted so hard, it finally bears peaches and is picked off.

Feeling that she should be defending her fruit, Sun Ximei was instantly motivated, turned around and went downstairs to look for Lin Qingbai, but only saw Lin Qingsong lying on the sofa reading a book. She walked over, brought Lin Qingsong's book, and said solemnly, "Qingsong, where's your brother?"

"I went out with my sister-in-law." Lin Qingsong sat up straight, took the book and continued reading.

"Sister-in-law, don't scream, you haven't gotten married yet. How can others marry someone else after you call me this way?" Sun Ximei severely criticized.

Lin Qingsong coughed, "Sister Ximei, this is not what I wanted to call, but my brother asked it. Besides, my sister-in-law must marry my brother, sooner or later."

After hearing this, Sun Ximei looked at Lin Qingsong like a traitor. How good the three of them were before, she followed Brother Qingbai, and Lin Qingsong followed the two of them. People say they are like a family. Now that an outsider appeared, Qing Song betrayed.

"Lin Qingsong, can you take a stand?"

"I have always stood firm, I listen to my brother." Lin Qingsong said innocently. His brother had no idea about Ximei since he was a child, what can he do.

Sun Ximei knew at a glance that he was playing a rogue, and stood up angrily, "I'll go find Brother Qingbai by myself."

Lin Changzheng heard the movement downstairs at the stairway, shook his head, turned around and went to the room again. Seeing that Li Wan was still jealous, she walked over to the bed and sat with her hands behind her back, "What's wrong with the children. You also know Qingbai's temper. He just likes it."

Although he also hopes that his son will marry the girl in the compound. But this kind of thing is not something anyone is willing to do.

Li Wan disagreed with him, "Where do young people know what they want. Now it's on an impulse. After getting married, it will take a long time to regret it. We are elders to help check. You don’t know, this girl is really bad-tempered. She broke up with her family, so she ran to someone else’s house to be her granddaughter, and she didn’t even recognize her parents. Do you think such a child is okay? She wants He's a sensible, good boy, and I don't say anything, but this...I really don't worry."

"The problem is that Qingbai himself likes it. You, you just worry too much. With this effort, take care of Qingsong. This one is a little behaved when he comes back. Watch carefully, don't let him be like before."

"Qing Song is the second child, so it doesn't matter. The key is that Qing Bai can support this family. And Lao Lin...I'm afraid, I have no confidence. If you find a good relative, can you support each other in the future?" she He and Lao Lin both came from the past years and have suffered and suffered sins. After finally living a peaceful life, she didn't want to suffer any more.

Lin Changzheng looked at her like this, sighed, and patted her shoulder, "No matter what, Qingbai will decide this matter for himself. He is a stable child." If it is Qingsong, he can say a few more words. Well, Qingbai... he said without confidence. He owes the child so much. There is no way to help with He Qiusheng's affairs, and how embarrassed to intervene in his lifelong affairs.

The road to the capital was all white, dry and cold. Xu Nannan felt cold when he put his hand in his pocket.

If it weren't for the street, she couldn't wait to put her hand into Lin Qingbai's sleeve.

However, rather than being uncomfortable at Lin's house, she would rather come out with Lin Qingbai to press the road. "It's a pity that the weather is not good, otherwise, we can still climb the Great Wall and see the Forbidden City."

Lin Qingbai was thinking about things in her heart, and seeing her so happy, she couldn't help but smile, "Climbing the Great Wall is no way. It's okay to see the Forbidden City. It's too late today. Let's get up early tomorrow morning to see the flag raising."

When Xu Nannan heard it, his eyes were bright. In the past, she wanted to see the flag raising, but every time it was not coincidentally, this and that reason did not work out. Unexpectedly, the first time I saw it, it was still in this era.

She nodded her head hurriedly. "I must go tomorrow."

I remembered one more thing, and looked up at Lin Qingbai, "By the way, what about that letter, Brother Lin. How about sending it back after I read the flag raising tomorrow?" Now after the afternoon, I don’t seem to be going to someone’s house. excellent.

Lin Qingbai thought for a while, "Let's go tomorrow. But that person has nothing to do with my dad. And he doesn't have a good temper."

"I'll send a letter, can he kick me out?"

Lin Qingbai nodded seriously, "It's possible."

Xu Nannan still didn't believe it. I was able to help them because of a letter from Grandpa Yu, it shouldn't be unreasonable.

The two of them pressed the road outside, and after walking around and getting familiar with the environment, they went home.

Xu Nannan was still sighing as he walked. What can I collect at the waste recycling station in Beijing? But just think about it. She didn't dare to do anything in this place. There are many people in this place, but don't be seen by others.

When they arrived home, Uncle Li and Aunt Li also came out of the room. When they saw Xu Nannan, their eyes lit up, as if they wanted to talk to Xu Nannan.

However, Xu Nannan had no feelings with them, and the distance between Li Jing and Li Jing, so she didn't plan to contact the two old men. They glanced at each other and said hello, and she followed Lin Qingbai and left.

Seeing Li Wan cooking in the kitchen, she yelled politely, "Auntie, let me cook for you."

"No, where can the guests do it?" Li Wan said hard in the kitchen. Hearing this as he got his wish, Xu Nannan bowed his head aggrievedly and followed Lin Qingbai upstairs.

In the evening, Lin Changzheng was not at home. He said it was snowing and he was going to see the soldiers. There were only four of them left during the meal. Uncle Li and Aunt Li still went back to the room to eat.

Xu Nannan didn't see Sun Ximei, thinking she would not come over at night. As a result, they ran over as soon as the dinner was in the evening, and brought half of the roast duck to the Lin family, saying that her brother brought it back from outside, and then he sat at the table generously for dinner. As soon as he sat down, he looked at Lin Qingbai, "My brother said that Qingbai will come back once, and he is planning to invite Qingbai out to play. I said he must be very tired when he comes back. Let him meet again in a few days."

"You kid is sensible and considerate." Li Wan smiled softly.

When Xu Nannan looked at Li Wan's smile, she got goose bumps. Just bury your head and eat. As for the roast duck, she didn't move a single chopstick. She did not eat, Lin Qingbai did not eat. Lin Qingsong had eaten it all by himself. Eat a mouthful of oil. "Where did your brother get it, you will get one for me next time. It tastes really good."

Sun Ximei looked at the oil on his hand painfully, and took a bite of rice, "I will ask when I turn around."

After a meal, Lin Qingsong ate the happiest, Xu Nannan was also full, felt his stomach, and wanted to go to sleep. Although there are people taking care of me in the car these days, it is not as comfortable as sleeping in bed.

Lin Qingbai said, "You go to rest first. I have to get up early tomorrow."

Xu Nannan nodded and followed upstairs. Seeing that the two of them were going upstairs, Li Wan said hurriedly, "There are not enough rooms at home, so I sent a single bed in the afternoon. I think it would be warmer if I put it under the stairs."

Lin Qingbai looked back at her with dark eyes, and Li Wan looked a little guilty.

Lin Qingsong hurriedly said, "I'll let the room out. Where can I get lesbians to sleep in the stairwell." How come he hadn't noticed his mother doing this before.

Li Wan smiled and said, "When guests came to the house before, they were all arranged in this way."

Seeing that the faces of several people were not quite right, Sun Ximei said, "Why don't you let Comrade Nannan go to our house and squeeze with me. Anyway, they are not outsiders."

Lin Qingbai retracted his gaze, without saying a word, pulling Xu Nannan upstairs.

Li Wan took a few breaths, but she didn't dare to shout again. Only dissatisfied, "How can I sleep together if I'm not married?"

"Don't tell me, you have to let my elder brother go out in the middle of the night before you are satisfied?" Lin Qingsong asked unhappy. Just the look in his brother's eyes is to eat people. His brother was too kind to his mother before. Somewhat worried, Lin Qingsong didn't even talk to Li Wan and the others downstairs. He hurriedly followed upstairs, preparing to let out his room.

Seeing that his two sons were not on his side, Li Wan was panicked. What's wrong with sleeping in the stairwell. I won't let her and Lao Lin's room come out. In the past, her mother Li Jing used to be a pedal-sleeper. Generally, girls will have the face to stay here when they encounter this kind of thing, and they will leave long ago. She didn't believe that the girl knew that the man didn't like it at home, so she could continue to rely on it.

Upstairs, Lin Qingbai took Xu Nannan directly to his room. Although he came back very little, the room was always cleaned up. Neatly, the same as when he left. Knowing that he was coming back, Li Wan deliberately changed new sheets and quilts. The layer on the table is not stained.

In this respect, her stepmother is impeccable. Xu Nannan couldn't make any mistakes.

It's a pity that Lin Qingbai didn't appreciate her at all this time. After going upstairs, his face darkened. "You sleep in my room, I'll go find a squeeze in the Qingsong house." If it weren't because the conditions of the guest house were not as good as home, and Nan Nan was afraid of the cold, he could take Nan Nan directly to the main guest house tomorrow. When the matters here are finished, I will go back to Nanjiang directly. He didn't let Nan Nan get angry, and he could let others bully her?

"Brother Lin, don't be angry. It's not good to be angry." Xu Nannan comforted him. As for just getting angry... She didn't feel angry either. Anyway, she knew that Li Wan looked unpleasant to her, and she also looked unpleasant to Li Wan, all thinking about making the other person feel uncomfortable. So she didn't pay attention to Li Wan's method at all.

When Li Wan arranged for her to sleep in the stairwell, she knew that Lin Qingbai would never let her actually sleep in the stairwell. Anyway, the end result was that Li Wan couldn't do what she wanted, so why was she still angry.

Lin Qingbai, who was aggrieved by her, consoled herself in turn, couldn't help but want to laugh, and reached out to touch the top of her hair.

Lin Qingsong knocked on the door, and when he heard the sound inside, he stretched his head in, and saw Xu Nannan sitting on Lin Qingbai’s bed, his brother was touching the girl’s head, his eyes stared, "You don’t...no I will really sleep together."

"Do you have an opinion?" Lin Qingbai said with a cold face.

"No, you continue." Lin Qingsong immediately blushed and walked away.

Xu Nannan found that Lin Qingsong looked really good at this. In this home, it is a wonderful flower. He looked up at Lin Qingbai again, "Let’s stay for a few days. I will be fine after the letter is delivered tomorrow." This time I mainly came over and walked through the scene, regardless of what Lin Changzheng and Li Wan thought, anyway. The parents have met.

Lin Qingbai said, "I have something to do here. I guess I have to wait a few days. When it's okay, let Qingsong take you out for a stroll."

Listening to this tone, it's still too busy to see people. Xu Nannan didn't ask much, thinking about where to go for fun. I'm here this time, and I don't know when I have a chance to come in the future.

Perhaps he felt that this was Lin Qingbai's room, and he slept well. Xu Nannan only woke up when he heard the knock on the door.

Seeing Lin Qingbai neatly packed outside the door, she remembered that she was going to see the flag raising early this morning. Hurry back to the room and put on clothes in a hurry.
