Chapter 203: Those Years in the Great Northern Wilderness (39)
"I used to think she was a good girl, how did she become like this?" She betrayed her country and fled, pretended to be crazy and hurt others, and finally made herself half-human and half-ghost and paralyzed in bed, "harming Leopard badly."
It takes two to tango. Zhu Xueer was certainly wrong, but Geng Bao was not entirely innocent either. The truly innocent ones were Liu Wei and her son.
But the same thing goes, Zhou Yu and Huang Gai were both willing to fight and be beaten, and Liu Wei was happy with it, so no one could interfere.
What made Yun Tinglan unable to accept it was that everyone actually thought that the current situation was a win-win situation and they were happy for Liu Wei.
Yun Tinglan could only eat dumplings silently. She was eating the portion for three people by herself and had no time to express her opinion. How normal.
As Sister Yuan was talking, she turned the topic to Ling Xi. Yun Tinglan immediately became alert, fearing that she was being asked by someone else to act as a matchmaker for Ling Xi.
What a painful feeling!
It turned out that it wasn't. Sister Yuan seemed to be just asking casually, "Does your aunt really not plan to find a companion to live with?"
Of course not!
She asked Lingxi to come out to do housework for her, not to help others. Besides, Lingxi is a robot, how can she get married? Even though it looks like a human now, it is still a robot after all. If it contacts outsiders for a long time, it will be exposed.
The next day, the eldest sister Yuan brought Chen Dandan to visit again. Yun Tinglan suddenly had an idea. Could it be that Chen Dandan... has taken a fancy to Xu Jianmin?
She's a little scary, there's a 20-year age difference between them!
It’s a bit far-fetched to say that he likes her. Yun Tinglan absolutely doesn’t believe it. She just thinks of his future.
This at least shows that Xu Jianmin spent the ten years of the Cultural Revolution in peace and stability, otherwise there would be no need for Chen Dandan to come up now.
This is good news for the couple.
However, their cousins came here... to ask her to be a matchmaker? No way.
Based on Yun Tinglan's understanding of Xu Jianmin, he would never agree.
Sure enough, Sister Yuan also talked about this matter, "I am also a little troubled. I never thought that Dandan would have a good impression of Lao Xu."
What kind of person is Old Xu? Of course, there is no doubt about it. If Old Xu had not been seriously injured and had to lie in the hospital for two years, his official position would definitely be higher than that of her family's Old Qiu.
Originally, Old Xu was not included in the demobilization. He took the initiative to request demobilization on the grounds that his right arm was injured, and he also took the initiative to take on the tough task of Yanwo Island.
Looking at the prosperous Yanwo Island today, you can tell that he has outstanding abilities and impeccable character. The only problem is that he is too old.
But what my cousin said was very true. Her family background is not good, and she is old now. If she wants to find someone of the same level as Lao Xu, she can only be a stepmother.
Or if it was a stepchild who was about her age, that would be terrible!
People with low positions cannot protect their aunt and cousin.
Therefore, Old Xu, who has no children, is actually Dandan's best choice. Didn't you see that her aunt has acquiesced?
But who would have thought that the biggest obstacle was Lao Xu himself.
The reason given was that the age difference between the two was too big!
To put it bluntly, getting promoted, getting rich and having a dead wife are the dreams of many middle-aged men. Looking at the past and present, and looking at the old comrades around us, they abandoned their wives in the countryside or remarried after their wives died. Which of their new wives was not young, beautiful, intellectual and elegant girls.
It was the first time that Sister Yuan met someone like Lao Xu. She felt both admiration and helplessness.
Yun Tinglan didn't know what expression to make.
I was even more confused about their intentions. They didn't want her to be a lobbyist, did they? But even if you were the matchmaker, he still didn't agree. It wouldn't be helpful if she went.
Just when I was confused, Lingxi came back.
Yun Tinglan rubbed her ears, suspecting that she had heard it wrong, and asked again, "Who wants to marry you?"
"He didn't say marrying her. He said living together." Ling Xi answered in a serious tone with her still charming face.
Yun Tinglan was confused. Isn't this the same meaning?
"No," Ling Xi shook her head, "I said I would never leave this home and I would never marry, and he said we could live together." Finally, he added, "I think he might need a cook and a nanny."
Is that right?
Yes or no, anyway, Xu Jianmin started coming here for three meals a day. It was a bit like the small dining tables in later generations. He provided money and supplies and ate here together.
To be honest, apart from having one more person coming to our house for dinner, nothing has changed... bullshit!
It was the first time I discovered that Xu Jianmin was a bit of a rogue. He behaved very openly and said it in front of everyone, saying that we were just eating together, nothing else.
Everyone smiled and said, "Very good, very good." But their expressions clearly showed that they had misunderstood.
Just tell me, does it hurt in your balls?
Yun Tinglan was originally very depressed, but when she turned around and saw Song Jinhan's frustrated look, she suddenly felt happy.
Looking at it from a positive perspective, it only means that Ling Xi has to cook for one more person, and they will gain an elder, which is also an extra support.
A first-class combat hero!
She thought this was what Chen Dandan liked about Xu Jianmin.
In other words, Xu Jianmin did not care about fame and fortune and took the initiative to transfer to the military reclamation here, otherwise his rank would definitely not be low.
Ling Xi also used the program to analyze it, "Letting him partner up will do more good than harm."
Song Jinhan, "..." He can argue with a robot, what does Xu Jianmin want?
You think of yourself as his cook, and he thinks of you as his partner.
What you said doesn't make sense at all.
This is one person and one robot, or rather, one person and one robot. They are of different species and their brain circuits are not on the same line, but the strange thing is that they can still communicate successfully.
It's also a miracle!
The next time he lets Ling Xi be his aunt, he will...
"What do you want? Change your surname?" Yun Tinglan tried to hold back her laughter. "Your surname is not Song now, right? Otherwise, let Lingxi be your daughter? Son in the future?" Anyway, she needed Lingxi, the all-purpose nanny. Apart from anything else, cooking was currently her area of domination.
She didn't want to hurt her stomach at all. Also, in this era, she could still be so relaxed, thanks to Lingxi, who took care of all the housework at home.
When Song Jinhan thought of her small robot son and daughter, she refused.
Yun Tinglan had a toothache. "What about friends? Female friends? Or male friends?"
Not appropriate either.
Yun Tinglan laughed angrily, "Could it be that you want to have another mother-in-law and father-in-law? So, my widowed aunt is the right one to live with. There will be no trouble."
A widower’s uncle is also acceptable.
Yun Tinglan, "...Okay, I'll send you a cheap uncle in the next time and space!" Even if he is an old man, as long as he is capable and can take care of the family, and has good cooking skills.
Haha, definitely more attractive than women.
Just don't regret it.
Yun Tinglan didn't understand why he and Ling Xi were competing with each other.
Before winter, Song Jinhan went to the main farm and worked for a few days, firing kilns and making bricks, helping them upgrade red bricks to blue bricks, and then transported a batch of bricks back to the island. During the few months of hibernation, everyone built the primary school.
There are still quite a few bricks left, or rather, these bricks were reserved for them by Song Jinhan from the very beginning.
With the adobe bricks, her new house was built before the spring ploughing and planting. The old wooden house was turned into a second courtyard. The wooden house in front became the office and reception area for the couple, and guests could also rest here.
