With the medicinal wine that Xu Nannan gave, Zhou Yunshan's rheumatism pain was finally relieved, his body pain was gone, and his temper was much better. He also made time to think about Xu Nannan.

Zhou Yunshan himself has only one son, and like him, he has a stubborn temper, and father and son are incompatible. So Zhou Yunshan felt that Lin Changzheng's eldest son probably also had this kind of violent temper, and the little girl might suffer a disadvantage if she had no backer with such a family. Since he is a descendant of Yu Hai, and this child looks quite attractive, Zhou Yunshan felt that he should also support this child, so that the Lin family should not underestimate this girl.

When Lin Qingbai came, Zhou Yunshan didn't even give him a look, and asked Xu Nannan to sit and chat.

"Hehehe, your medicinal wine is very good for me. I also asked your aunt to mix some for my old guys. They all said it was easy to use this morning, and I asked where I got it from."

When Xu Nannan heard him talk about medicinal wine, his scalp went numb. Thinking that Lin Qingbai didn't know what was in her bag, it should be fine. She smiled and said, "Then next time I run into it on a business trip, I'll get you some more."

"Okay, let's get more of these good things. Alas, they are all people who have suffered, and they have problems all over their bodies. I didn't feel much about it during the war, but when I was free, all the problems came out. That's the name Lin's whole body is fine."

This topic turned to Lin Changzheng. He glanced at Lin Qingbai.

Lin Qingbai sat upright, with a calm smile on his face, as if what Zhou Yunshan said had nothing to do with him.

Zhou Yunshan took a few glances at him secretly, and then looked away, "This is Xiaolin, I just talked to Nannan and didn't say hello to you, don't be surprised. Your father often mentions me at home."

Lin Qingbai said with a smile, "My dad often talked about the former revolutionary predecessors at home, let us learn from them the spirit of bearing hardships and standing hard work, and fearing death."

"Your father can say such grandiose words?" Zhou Yunshan was full of disbelief. Then leaned back on the sofa, "Forget it, I won't tell you children about the previous generation's affairs. Xiao Lin, I don't know what your father thinks about the relationship between Nan Nan and our family, so I will Make a statement. The relationship between Nannan and your family will not affect the relationship between our family and Nannan. I, Zhou Yunshan, am not such a stingy person to embarrass the little girl for my own personal grievances, don’t you think so?”

This is putting Lin Changzheng on the shelf to drive ducks away. If Lin Changzheng dislikes him, he is a stingy person.

He deliberately said it to Lin Qingbai, and also wanted Lin Qingbai to go back and tell Lin Changzheng.

Unexpectedly, Lin Qingbai said naturally, "My dad also follows the ideas of our young people and doesn't interfere with these things."

"Okay, it's rare for Lin Changzheng to be arrogant about this matter. Then today I will act as an elder in front of you. Nan Nan called me uncle, and I will also care about her affairs in the future. My old Zhou I am a person who protects my shortcomings, and no one can bully the people around me. Xiaolin, I see that you are also a very good child. I am very supportive when Nan Nan is in love with you. Nannan."

"Don't worry, no matter whose junior she is, in my heart, I will always protect her." Lin Qingbai said calmly.

Only then did Zhou Yunshan start to look at him, and his smiling eyes narrowed, making it difficult for people to see his expression, "Good boy, take responsibility."

He looked at Xu Nannan again, "Nannan, your aunt is in the kitchen, go and see how things are going."

This is to drive her away.

Seeing that Lin Qingbai seemed to be able to handle it, Xu Nannan left the living room directly.

Zhang Wenxiu's family has orderlies. There is also a large canteen in the compound of the military region, where meals can be served at ordinary times. But Zhang Wenxiu still insisted on cooking for Zhou Yunshan. According to her, I didn't have the opportunity to cook before, but now I have this opportunity, I have to cherish it.

Seeing Xu Nannan coming to the kitchen, she smiled and said, "Lao Zhou didn't say anything to scare the boss of the Lin family."

"No, Uncle Zhou is fine." She could tell that it was a bluff.

Zhang Wenxiu said, "He is such a person, with a loud voice and a good heart."

Xu Nannan helped wash the vegetables, and said, "It's just that Uncle Zhou really has a big grudge with Uncle Lin."

"It's all in the past. Speaking of which, the relationship was pretty good before, but there were conflicts because of differences in ideas. I've been here for so many years, and I just talked about it, and I almost let it go. There are no steps. "

Xu Nannan thought about what Lin Changzheng said to her yesterday, and Zhou Yunshan called Lin Qingbai to the door again today, so I guess it was really interesting.

Lin Qingbai and Xu Nannan entered the Zhou family's door, and this matter could not be hidden in the compound. The Sun family soon found out the news.

Sun Boen also just came back from outside. After hearing the news, he had a complicated expression on his face.

Grandmother made him tea and hot water to soak his feet, "Zhou Yunshan and Lin Changzheng are going to reconcile?"

"Reconciliation is reconciliation, it has nothing to do with our Sun family." Sun Boen said coldly.

Mother-in-law said, "Didn't Lin Changzheng cross the river and tear down the bridge? You were the one who kept him when the accident happened. Otherwise, he married such a daughter-in-law, and he could still pass the inspection? It was also because of the relationship between him and Zhou Yunshan that time. .Now that he knows that you have a bad relationship with those people, he still wants to reconcile with Zhou Yunshan. This is too insincere."

Sun Boen squinted his eyes and said nothing, "Where is Ximei."

"I went to Lin's house. I can't control this kid running to Lin's house all day now. I don't know where Lin Qingbai fell in love with him. I have to catch up with him."

Speaking of this, grandma was very angry. Relying on their family's kindness in helping the Lin family. The Lin family can't treat her daughter. It's not that her daughter is not worthy of that Lin Qingbai. Don't mention whether it's love or not, it's all for the revolutionary cause, what is love

Sun Boen said with a cold face, "Let her go. If the Lin family thinks it through, we will get married. If not... our family will not care about the relationship that has been going on for many years."

Hearing what he meant, he still agreed to marry the Lin family. Grandmother has always listened to her man, and now she has an arrangement in her heart.

When Xu Nannan and Zhang Wenxiu came out with the food, the atmosphere of Lin Qingbai and Zhou Yunshan was different from before. Zhou Yunshan was talking and laughing, not at all intimidating Lin Qingbai like before.

A meal is very tasty. Zhou Yunshan had to rest in the afternoon, and Xu Nannan followed Lin Qingbai home.

After going out, Xu Nannan asked him what he and Zhou Yunshan had secretly said.

Lin Qingbai sighed with a smile, "I didn't say anything. This old man said that if I dare to treat you badly in the future, he would shoot me dead. I was so scared that I quickly swore to God with him that I would treat you well for the rest of my life."

Xu Nannan knew it was a lie as soon as he heard it, "Blow it, just blow it hard."

Lin Qingbai said solemnly, "I didn't threaten me, but I was tempted. He said that if I behaved well, I would take me to the front line in the future. When I come back with great merit, I will let you live a good life."

Xu Nannan was anxious after hearing this every day, "You won't agree,"

"No, I said I have to marry you and go home. The old man didn't say anything. I guess he was worried that you would not be taken care of." Lin Qingbai looked at her with a smile, his eyes flickering slightly. In fact, what he said was that one day, it was imperative.

Worried about Xu Nannan's questioning, Lin Qingbai dragged her out of the compound.

"Taking advantage of the time today, go to the Forbidden City to have a look."

Xu Nannan nodded immediately, and she didn't want to stay at home all the time. The most important thing is that I don't want to look at Li Wan's face, it's too irritating.

The last time they were in a hurry, they didn't have a chance to enter the Forbidden City. This time Lin Qingbai bought a ticket, and the two went directly to visit the Forbidden City.

At this time, it was cold and there were not many people. Except for the staff, there are basically few tourists to see.

Xu Nannan looked at the Forbidden City, which had not undergone extensive restoration at this time, and felt a little like traveling through time and space again. Contrary to what she thought, the Forbidden City looked a bit dilapidated. Covered with heavy snow in winter, it also feels a bit depressed.

"Although the weather is not very good, the Forbidden City in this snow scene has a special artistic conception." Seeing her silence, Lin Qingbai thought it was because of the bad weather, "We will come back next time if we have a chance. It may be a little longer. Maybe then When we came, there were a few more people."

"Who is it?" Xu Nannan asked, and then realized that his face was red, and he pinched him, but he was wearing too much, so he pinched him on his clothes.

"You have caused a lot of trouble, and I have to think about it." Xu Nannan deliberately said with a straight face.

Lin Qingbai raised his eyebrows, "What did I provoke?" He has always been honest, and there is no such honest child in the entire compound. He never participated in those brats picking out bird eggs and burning cat tails.

Xu Nannan said with a half-smile, "Sister Ximei of yours. Look at how diligent she is these days. Your aunt has taken a fancy to her."

Hearing Sun Ximei's name, Lin Qingbai's expression did not change, "No matter what she thinks, my attitude is already very clear. Nannan, don't worry about Ximei, my position will not change. It doesn't matter what Auntie thinks , it doesn’t even matter what my dad thinks.”

Xu Nannan snorted, "If it weren't for your good performance, I would have gone back to Nanjiang by now. Can I still listen to your explanation here?"

Seeing her arrogant appearance, Lin Qingbai couldn't help reaching out and pinching her face. If it weren't for this being a public place, he really wanted to hold this little girl in his arms and kiss her.

"Nannan, when my father and aunt got married, my mother and I were in Shanghai." Lin Qingbai looked at her solemnly, "Although he thought we were gone at that time, and he had stayed with us for several years before forming another family, but For my mother, this is betrayal. I will never follow his old path in my life. So Nannan, you have to trust me. "

"Your mother didn't remarry?"

Xu Nannan was surprised, she thought Brother Lin's mother was married, otherwise how could Teacher He talk about his son.

"What's going on in your head?" Lin Qingbai smiled helplessly, "She was just working as a servant for others. It's just that we met a good family at that time, so we had a good life. But her health was not good, and she died later. Gone. Later, I was adopted by that family. They treated me like their own son. If it weren't for my mother's last wish to let me recognize my ancestors, I would not return to the capital."

This is another twisted story.

Xu Nannan thinks it's better not to ask more about this matter, "Brother Lin, don't talk about it. I believe in you, really, it's better than gold."

Lin Qingbai smiled and wrapped her scarf tighter. He just likes the way Xiaonizi believes in him and relies on him.

"Tomorrow I have to go to the army. I may not have time to accompany you. After finishing the business, we will go back to Nanjiang."

Xu Nannan also wanted to go back to Nanjiang for a long time. Hearing this, he was very happy. "OK."

When the two returned home, Lin Changzheng didn't say a word about their affairs at Zhou's house. Hearing that Lin Qingbai was going to the army, he also offered to go with him. It was a rare time to come back, and this time he would visit more people.

Lin Qingsong was at the side talking to Xu Nannan, "Why don't I go around with you tomorrow."

"Is there anything better?" She went to the Forbidden City today, and she didn't see anything new, but rather melancholy.

"Let's go shopping in the street. At least come to the capital once to see new things. There are still a lot of foreign goods here." Lin Qingsong made up his mind to take his sister-in-law to broaden his horizons.

The point is that Ximei will definitely come tomorrow, when his brother will not be at home, and there will be another war between the three women, he will be impatient to deal with these.

Xu Nannan thought about it, and felt that staying at home would be better than going out for a walk.

The next day, Xu Nannan and Lin Qingbai split into two groups.

Before leaving, Lin Qingbai looked at Lin Qingsong pointedly, and said to Xu Nannan, "If this kid is messing around, you can tell me when you come back."

"Brother, I'm honest, don't worry." Even if he had pestered his sister-in-law before, didn't he know the relationship between her and his brother? Besides, at that time, the son thought that the sister-in-law was very cute and very destined, but now I dare not think about it. Even his brother is submissive, so he dare not provoke him.

Lin Qingbai glanced at him and saw that he was quite honest, so he got into the car and left.

"Really, I'm even jealous of my own brother. Who am I doing this for?" Lin Qingsong muttered aggrievedly, putting his hands inside his sleeves. Like a little old man hunched over and walked out.

Xu Nannan smiled while clutching his scarf.

After several people had gone out, Li Wan looked at the empty house and felt very sad.

Qingbai and her have separated, and now Lao Lin doesn't talk to her about things, and even Qingsong, his own son, doesn't deal with her anymore. She is provoking someone. Isn't it all for this family? As a result, the family did not greet her when they went out.

Following Lin Qingsong out of the compound along the way, Xu Nannan admired Lin Qingsong's popularity.

She and Lin Qingbai walked in this compound, greeting some elderly people. These people don't go out often, so they basically haven't met a few people these days. If it was Lin Qingsong, it would be different. As long as they were young people, regardless of gender, seeing Lin Qingsong was like seeing a relative, it was so sweet.

"Brother Song, where are you going? Who is this, your relative."

"Don't talk nonsense, my sister-in-law."

After walking a few more steps, "Brother Song, who is it?" The little girl was still somewhat sour.

"My sister-in-law."

"No wonder she's so handsome, so she's my sister-in-law."

Along the way, Xu Nannan wished he could put a sign on his head, with a few large characters on it, 'I am his sister-in-law'.

Xu Nannan didn't doubt it. She and Lin Qingsong walked out of the compound, guessing that the entire compound would know her relationship with Lin Qingbai.

After leaving the compound, I watched the small cars of the military area go back and forth.

Lin Qingsong didn't know how to do it, so he bought a small car, and it was much warmer when he got in the car. Lin Qingsong kept talking to the driver, without airs at all, and the driver was very cheerful.

After getting out of the car, Lin Qingsong didn't smile as happily as before.

"Sister-in-law, you must feel uncomfortable about Miss Ximei's matter, and I know it too, but you have to trust my brother about this matter. As for my father's attitude, there is also a reason. Don't think our family is very beautiful, In fact, it's not like that at all." Lin Qingsong said as if chatting.

"What does this have to do with Ximei?"

"My father offended some people back then, so there really wasn't much good relationship in the compound. My father doesn't like to talk, and he hasn't repaired the relationship these years. So he has a good relationship with Ximei's father, so he values this door. Friendship. That's why my dad can't stop Ximei from coming to our house." Lin Qingsong's tone was rare with melancholy. "And my mother... She is quite unpopular, but her background also makes her unashamed. Sometimes I don't like her very much, but I can understand her when I think about it. She is afraid. You know What does Ximei's father do? From the Political Department."

Lin Qingsong didn't say it so clearly, Xu Nannan also understood what he meant.

Look at Lin Qingsong's foolishness again. Maybe he knew it in his heart, he just pretended not to be distracted by anything.

"Sister-in-law, no matter what, you can help persuade my brother in the future, our family... can't break up. I know my brother doesn't like this family either. But our family can't live without him. Maybe one day, we will sever the relationship. But I hope that in my heart, we are still a family.”

Xu Nannan clutched the towel and said, "Okay, what are you talking about. If your brother really doesn't care about this family, can you still bring me back?"

In fact, she also heard yesterday that Lin Qingbai had resentment towards the Lin family. But he has listened to the arrangement of the Lin family all these years, and he also values family affection. Just like he doesn't like Li Wan, but he is good to Lin Qingsong. This is a loving man, she doesn't need to persuade him, and he won't really abandon the Lin family.

After saying this, Lin Qingsong returned to his heartless look, and took Xu Nannan to the department store.

There are indeed a lot of things in the department stores in Beijing. And there are a lot of imports.

Lin Qingsong wanted to buy something for Xu Nannan, but Xu Nannan didn't want it. There are many things here, but they are also expensive. There is no need to spend this wronged money. "I don't want to buy anything, let's go out and look around, by the way, isn't there a courtyard house here, I want to see it."

Shopping in department stores is not as good as shopping in Taobao.

Lin Qingsong couldn't understand what Xu Nannan was thinking. Don't those young girls like shopping

Would it be different for this sister-in-law

Can't figure it out, can't figure it out, Xu Nannan has spoken, and he, the accompanying guest, has to follow.

At this time, a large family lived in the courtyard house as before. These houses had been nationalized and redistributed.

There are many people living in a big courtyard. The commotion inside can be heard from the outside.

Lin Qingsong looked inside, "How about we go in and have a look?"

"Forget it, what do people think we do later?" Xu Nannan shook his head. Going in and looking at it, it destroyed the imagination.

After walking around for a while, Xu Nannan also felt a little cold. Just as I was about to go home, I suddenly saw something through the door and was taken aback.

Lin Qingsong said, "What's wrong?"

Xu Nannan stood up and recalled for a while, thinking that he should remember correctly. After all, it seems that a movie was made for that thing back then, and that was a blockbuster movie.

She, a house girl who doesn't care about the affairs of the world, also knows such little news.

It's just impossible. Didn't this thing go overseas? How could it be in the capital

And not far from the Forbidden City.

After walking a few steps, Xu Nannan still couldn't let go. If it is true, if it is true, wouldn't she be found

Even if it's not, it doesn't matter.

She stopped suddenly, "Qingsong, I just forgot to buy wool, can you help me go to the department store to buy some wool."

"now go?"

Xu Nannan nodded, "I don't want to walk anymore, you can help me to buy, I'll shop here and wait for you to come."

Lin Qingsong rubbed his head, feeling that his sister-in-law really wanted to come out. But there is no way, who makes someone a sister-in-law. "Okay, then don't go far away, just wait for me near here. I'll be right back."

After Lin Qingsong gave instructions, he hurried to the department store.

Seeing Lin Qingsong run away, Xu Nannan turned back and entered the gate.

The thing I just saw is being trampled on by a child. The little boy was still imitating the barking of a dog, "Wow, woof, woof."

Xu Nannan stared at the thing. She had never seen the real thing, so she couldn't be 100% sure, but she just didn't want to give it up. This is no longer measurable in money. "Kid, is this your home?"

Xu Nannan pointed at the dog's head and said.

The little boy, who looked like five or six years old, protected the dog's head with one hand and said, "This is my wealth."

A woman came out of the room, looked at Xu Nannan, and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Xu Nannan smiled and said, "Hi, comrade. I just passed by your house and saw this copper dog head. I found it very interesting. I would like to ask if I can exchange it for me. You can take money and food stamps, or cloth tickets."

"You want to change this?" the woman said.

"Yeah. I want to take it back as a decoration." Xu Nannan smiled and said, "Is this the only one in your house?"

"Just this one. But if you want it, you can't keep it as scrap metal. It's quite complete." The woman said completely ignoring the footprints on the dog's head.

Xu Nannan was in a hurry, so he stopped haggling with her, "Ten yuan, five catties of food stamps."

"Ten yuan, ten catties of food stamps."

Seeing that Xu Nannan liked it, the woman simply returned it.

Xu Nannan looked at the dog's head, pretended to grit his teeth, and took out ten catties of national food stamps and ten yuan for her. The woman immediately picked up the copper head on the ground and handed it to Xu Nannan.

Xu Nannan went out with her arms in her arms.

The child in the back cried out, "My Wangcai."

"Why are you crying, I'll give you big meat buns later." A thing that can't be sold for much at the waste recycling station can be exchanged for ten catties of food stamps, so there's nothing to cry about.

Obviously, big meat buns are more important than prosperous money, and the children stopped crying immediately.

Outside, Xu Nannan walked for a while with the dog's head in his arms. There was no one in the alley, so he threw the things into Taobao.

Just out of the alley, Lin Qingsong also hurried over here with his things, and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Xu Nannan, "I didn't see you just now, I was frightened. If I lose you, my brother will It’s time to kill relatives righteously.”

Because Xu Nannan was thinking about the dog's head, he didn't have the heart to joke with him, "I just walked for a while, and I went astray. Let's go back, your brother should be back too."

"Okay, I should go back, or my brother will miss it." Lin Qingsong said with a smile. His brother is boring and can't speak well, so he needs to help him speak more.

When I went back, I also took a taxi back.

On the way, Lin Qingsong showed Xu Nannan the wool he bought. Xu Nannan saw that there were quite a few. Available in a variety of colors. It took a lot of tickets to buy it, and I guess he had to rely on his small mouth to coax the salesperson to get the wool.

Xu Nannan felt a little guilty. He made an excuse, but people didn't stop coming. It also seems to have sacrificed hue.

"Actually, it doesn't need that much."

Lin Qingsong said, "I figured that my brother would definitely want one, and you should wear it yourself. They are all for knitting anyway, so I'll get one by the way."

Xu Nannan: "... I can only knit scarves."

Lin Qingsong: "..."

When he got home, Lin Qingbai hadn't come back yet. Sun Ximei is here again, talking with Aunt Li.

Lin Qingsong glanced at Xu Nannan and was relieved to see that she didn't respond.

Xu Nannan changed her shoes, but still went to the kitchen and asked Li Wan to help with the cooking. After she got the expected answer, she went upstairs.

Seeing her go upstairs, Sun Ximei pursed her lips and got up to chase after her. Lin Qingsong's eyes widened, "I won't fight."

He hurriedly followed up. In the end, when he got upstairs, he saw his sister-in-law entered his brother's room, and closed the door behind her.

Sun Ximei looked at the door in disbelief, "Why is she so rude?"

Lin Qingsong smiled dryly, "My sister-in-law is tired, she walked a lot in the morning." This sister-in-law is really straightforward.

In the room, Xu Nannan couldn't care about Sun Ximei anymore. As soon as she went upstairs, there was a loud tinkling sound in her head, which made her dizzy.

She didn't care about anything else, so she hurried into the house and entered Taobao.

Just lying on the bed and entering Taobao, a series of news popped out.

[I'm the second child]: "Are you sure you're not selling fakes?"

[I am the second child]: "I'll go, that dog head is obviously fake. How could it be real, it must be fake."

[I am the second child]: "If you make a fake, you can fake it. How dare you make such a fake? Even a rookie like me can know it's fake."

[I am the second child]: "Don't think that you can avoid the facts by not talking. If you sell me another treasure, I will not publicize this matter."

Perhaps seeing that Xu Nannan hadn't replied, he sent a bunch of emojis. Xu Nannan was so harassed by these emojis that he was dizzy just now.

This stinky boy really didn't suffer enough from the loss last time.

"How do you know it's a fake? Do you have proof?" At most, it's not that thing, why is it fake.

[I'm the second child]: "Everyone in the world knows that this thing is in a museum. I'm not afraid to tell you that this thing was donated by our old lady."

Xu Nannan was taken aback, it's impossible, in her previous life, this thing was still wandering outside without a trace.

Or, the world opposite this guy also has this thing
