406. That Year (136)

That year (136)

No matter how many people are chasing wealth, how should the people live and how they live.

Brother Lin’s Xiaowei studied in the secondary technical school for two years, and in the second half of this year, he had to have an internship. He still studied machine tools and the place where he was in the internship was in the machinery factory.

This year, Dandan attended a kindergarten teacher class under the secondary school.

"You can be a teacher in the affiliated kindergarten of our factory. It's OK. Singing and dancing to fool children a day is better than standing in the workshop for a day." Sister Lin seemed to be thinking about it. "When she finishes school, whether she goes to Yen University, or goes to correspondence courses or gets a diploma, I think it will always be useful in the future."

This idea is pretty good.

Lin Yutong felt that as long as Sister Lin’s mentality was calm, she would still understand it very well.

Today is Lin’s 60th birthday. No matter how you do it, you have to have a good time.

In the past, I always had dumplings, and whoever had time came. I didn’t ask my children and grandchildren to be there.

This time it’s different. No matter how many people are, they are all sixty years old. You can’t fool them like this.

The children and grandchildren all asked for leave and came back to celebrate Lin's birthday.

Lin Yuting drove to the airport to pick up Lin Erjie, and she also came back this time.

It's been several years, and I have to come back.

"Did you think your second sister is having a date there?" Sister Lin avoided Lin's mother and asked Lin Yutong in a low voice.

Lin Yutong shook her head, "I don't know this anymore. But I guess it's unlikely that my second sister wants to get married."

Once she was bitten by a snake for ten years, she was afraid of a rope, and her first marriage did not have any effect on her. When dating someone, she was first wary and alert, and no one could stand it.

"It's really hard to say." Sister Lin said, breaking the washed cucumber in her hand and handing it to Lin Yutong, "Try it, eating cucumbers this winter is really fresh. This year, my mother wants to buy winter storage vegetables, and the youngest stops her from letting me stop her. My mother has been worried that there is no food at home, but who knows that it's time to come, cucumbers, tomatoes, beans, eggplant, and cabbage. What do you want? Now there are not enough refrigerators at home."

"Make less meat and vegetables, it's better to eat these vegetables." Lin Yutong took a bite of the cucumber and tasted pretty good. It should have been grown in the suburbs of Beijing. "When we returned to the city, there were many plastic sheds in the vegetable fields on the roadside, all of which were planted off-seasonal vegetables."

"The taste is not as strong as in summer, but it tastes really the same." Lin's mother brought in the washed vegetables. "In the past, I wanted to eat green leafy vegetables in winter, which were radish tassels, and occasionally I could buy some anti-freezing spinach. There was no more. Look at this now, as long as I have money, I can buy anything. The weird thing is that everyone wants to be a big shot. It's so good to have money."

Mrs. Lin washed two tomatoes and prepared scrambled eggs for a while. She came over to answer the conversation, "It's not a big deal. I heard from the youngest that there are strawberries that have not been released yet, so I have to wait until the Spring Festival. This cannot be sold at a sky-high price. Now the countryside also makes money."

There were women and children chattering in the room, and the children rushed to play the game console to see who could pass the test.

They were all waiting for Sister Lin to come back for dinner, but no one expected that Lin Yuting brought back not only one person, but two people.

Sister Lin brought a man to the door.

And this man is blonde.

Lin Yutong felt that Lin's mother was shaking and quickly supported her, "Mom, don't worry. This may be... a colleague, friend, and someone I know..."

Lin's mother gasped, "Your mother is not blind."

OK! It's me that I'm blind.

Look at them, one with one shoulder and one hugged the other. If it were a colleague or friend, no one would believe it.

"Hello!" Wei Guoren greeted the family enthusiastically.

"Hi! Wele to China." Yu Sheng shook his hand and expressed his welcome.

"thank you." Wei Guoren was very happy that someone responded to him.

Then Ye Sheng and Zhen Sheng went up to chat with them and asked them to sit down. The adults in the room were still confused. They were having fun.

Lin Yutong knew from the chats between several people that this person was named John, an American.

I am a lover with Sister Lin.

He proposed to Sister Lin, but was rejected. Sister Lin said that she hoped to follow the traditional Chinese customs, that was to come to propose marriage.

Therefore, John went to the Lin family this time to propose marriage.

"Okay, mom." Lin Yuting pulled Lin's mother, who had a pale face, "He is a guest. This family came from afar. You can't bow your face. This is impolite. Since childhood, you have neglected the guests, and our family has no way to treat guests. From a big perspective, China is a country of etiquette. You are still a model worker. You can't treat international friends like this and smear the country's face."

Lin's mother glared at Lin Erjie angrily, turned around and sat in front of the stove.

Sister Lin glanced at John and smiled and said, "You speak Chinese. Most of the people in the family don't know how to speak English."

John immediately stood up and bowed to Lin's mother, "Hello, mother-in-law."

Lin’s mother almost jumped up, and she was following her mother-in-law.

Zhensheng quickly pulled John to the inner room, "We sit inside, the men are all inside."

"There is a difference between men and women...I understand." John continued.

Where did such a baby come from? It's so funny!

Dad Lin can hold on at least and bring the person in.

When the door of the inner room was closed, Lin's mother slapped Lin Erjie on the back, "You damn girl, why are you so uneasy?"

Sister Lin stood up with a smile on her face and asked her to hit Lin's mother, "Mom! John is pretty good."

Lin Yutong pulled Lin Erjie and whispered: "In the past two years, you have made a lot of money. You can live well in Hong Kong and Beijing. You don't have to go to the United States or immigrate to Canada. Why are you going out for no relatives or reasons? If you are doing it for a green card, you really can't do it."

Sister Lin shook her head, "It's not for money, nor for green cards. It's a meeting." She turned her head and said to her mother Lin, "John is really a very good person, really! Foreigners are like us, most of them are very good. More than a year ago, I went back late tonight. On the road, I met two robbers. John helped me drive away the people. You said how many brave people are on the street now? I thought, oh, these foreigners are not all bad people from the Eight-Nation Alliance at that time. So you get back and forth, and you get familiar with each other." She lowered her head and his voice slowly lowered, "I'm in this situation. What kind of partner can I find? After all, I've been divorced and have no children, but I have to find a second marriage again.

At my age, I have to be a stepmother with others when I enter the house. Others don’t know about my temper. Can people in this family still know about it? Is it possible to be a stepmother? I have to fight every few days. Besides, this is the case, and people may not feel disliked. Men are not the same thing. At least, John doesn’t have that idea. He is a lawyer, works in the Hong Kong branch of an American company, and has his own industry in the United States. After getting married, he lives in the United States, lives in Hong Kong, or settles his home in the capital. I really want to marry him and live a serious life. As for how far he can go, I haven’t thought about it. But I can’t be afraid to not be able to live in the future and dare not take steps. This year, I have also learned English and can handle basic dialogues."

"But the same thing is true. If the family agrees, then we get married. If the family disagrees, then forget it. We can be friends and lovers. It doesn't matter."

After Sister Lin finished speaking, she looked at Ma Lin.

林雨桐赶紧躲开了,这人是欠揍.前面说的都挺好的,后面非说什么‘情人’,这不是找揍吗?

As expected, Lin Yutong had just avoided it, Lin's mother picked up the broom at her hand and hit Lin Erjie, "I told you not to learn well, I'm sorry to call you..."

"Mom, I'm over thirty." Sister Lin jumped away, hiding while rubbing her butt.

"I'm over thirty? I'm over 80, so I'll beat you the same." Lin's mother covered her chest angrily, "Why did you give birth to such a badass?"

"Then you have to live long and long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long,

Sister Lin quickly made Lin's mother angry, "Think about it, the second sister's words make sense. The world is different now. Yesterday, Dandan said something... what aristocrat?"

"Single noble!" Dandan touched a few more slices of cut cucumbers and turned around.

"Yes! It's a single nobleman." Mrs. Lin whispered, "It's said that our youngest is a single nobleman now. Look, in your eyes, the family in difficult marriages have become a nobleman. The world is really different now. As long as she is willing to get married, what kind of country she married? Isn't it? It's better than an old girl. When you get married and have children in the future, no matter what the man is like, you have children and support. No matter how a man is, you have filial piety. You shouldn't be filial to your mother. Besides, if you really have a child, it will have half of the Chinese bloodline, and you have to talk about filial piety. Will the second sister not rely on the rest of her life? Think about it, is that the reason?"

Where is this? Mrs. Lin's words made Lin Yutong laugh. But when she looked back, she nodded desperately while on the side, and felt that it made sense.

The black thread in Lin Erjie's head was full of black lines, what was it? Is it to marry herself to give birth to a child legally?

What a mess!

But just so, Lin's mother still listened to Mrs. Lin's words.

"Don't be idle, hurry up and cook. When you come, the distinguished guest, make two more dishes." Lin's mother's face was not good, but at least she was not so repulsive.

Sister Lin didn't know whether she should cry or laugh...
