Are you scared
Lin Qingqing wanted to say, "Would I be afraid?" However, she didn't know that Lu Cheng was acting tough on purpose. In fact, he was just like that on the surface. Lin Qingqing was indeed a little scared. However, today was the first step in his future life, and also the first step in her future life. Therefore, she would not back down.
"Don't be afraid." Lin turned around gently and met Lu Cheng's eyes.
Lu Cheng also looked at her and met her eyes. "Then I..."
Lin raised his eyebrows slightly: "You what?"
The lights were still on, and Lu Cheng could clearly see her provocative look. "I..." He wanted to say...
Lin Qingqing suddenly reached out and hugged his neck: "What?" It was still those three words, and she was smiling.
"I'm not going to let you go." Lu Cheng turned over and kissed her.
the next day
Lu Haici got up very early today. Mom and Dad slept together last night. When I was a child, Mom told me that if Mom and Dad slept together, we would have little brothers and sisters. So, Mom must be pregnant with a little brother or sister now, right? Lu Haici was very happy when he thought of this.
Lu Cheng got up and saw that his son had gotten up earlier than him. He couldn't believe it. "Why did you get up so early?"
Lu Haici was washing up. When he heard his father's voice, he turned around and looked at him excitedly: "Dad, you are not divorcing Mom, are you?"
They just had their wedding night yesterday, and today his son asked him about this. Lu Cheng really wanted to teach him a lesson: "Who told you that I want to divorce your mother?" This man is so evil, he has gone too far.
Lu Haici said softly: "No one told me, but I heard from Ji Yang that his mother didn't give birth to a little brother or sister, so his father wanted to divorce his mother. I'm worried that if mom doesn't give birth to a little brother or sister, you will also divorce her."
Lu Cheng didn't expect to hear such gossip: "Don't mind other people's business." He taught Lu Haici a lesson, "Your mother and I will never divorce, do you understand?"
When Lu Haici heard this, he was very happy: "Really? That's great."
Seeing his son happy like a little fool, Lu Cheng rubbed his head and said, "Okay, stop thinking about this kind of thing all day long. A real man should focus on serious matters. When I was on a mission, did you study hard?"
"Of course I have." Lu Haici said, "I want to be a college student like my father."
It is now June 22nd and the college entrance examination has been cancelled, but Lu Haici is young and doesn't know about this, so he still vows to become a college student.
Similarly, Lu Cheng didn't know about the cancellation of the college entrance examination because he was on a mission at that time.
So when Lu Cheng heard his son say this, he praised him, "You have great potential."
"The college entrance examination has been cancelled." Lin Qingqing said as she came out of the house.
When Lu Cheng saw her, he thought of what happened last night and his face turned red. However, he was shocked by what Lin Qingqing said and didn't care about what happened last night. He asked hurriedly: "The college entrance examination was cancelled? When did it happen?"
Lin Qingqing said, "It was cancelled on June 18th. I know you care about this matter, so I left you the newspaper from that day." After saying that, Lin Qingqing went back to the room and took out the newspaper she had put away.
Lu Cheng took the newspaper and read the news about the cancellation of the college entrance examination. He felt helpless. He had never asked Lin Qingqing about history. He knew that the future of the motherland would be very strong, and that was enough. If he knew the history, it might not be good for him, because he might try to modify it. However, even though he knew that the future of the motherland would be strong, he was still sad to hear about the cancellation of the college entrance examination. "How many years will this history last?" It was the first time that he wanted to know about this history.
Lin Qingqing said, "Ten years, until the second half of 1976."
Ten years have passed, and many people have already been implicated. How many more people will be implicated in the next ten years? Lu Cheng dared not imagine. But at least he knew that it would end in ten years, so there was still hope.
Lu Cheng came back to his senses: "Why did you get up so early? Don't you want to take a rest?" Thinking of what happened yesterday, he felt a little embarrassed.
Lin Qingqing said, "I'm hungry, get up and make breakfast." Lu Haici had to go to school in the morning, so he had to make breakfast for him. However, the description in the novel that the woman had experienced her first time and couldn't get out of bed the next day was simply nonsense.
Lu Cheng said: "I'll go back to the army first, you... you have a good rest."
"I'm fine, you go to the army." Lin waved his hand gently, without any reluctance.
Looking at her like this, Lu Cheng suddenly felt very wronged, as if he was the one who was used and then thrown away. He looked at Lin Qingqing and wanted to say that he would not go to the army.
"Dad, the wakeup call has been ringing for a long time, why haven't you gone to the army yet?" Lu Haici looked at Lu Cheng and reminded him.
Lu Cheng glanced at him and said, "Since I'm back, you can continue your training starting tomorrow." He left after saying that.
Lu Haici: "..." Dad is too much. He bullied him when he was young and used exercise to retaliate against him. Now he is eight years old and is no longer such a fool. He asked Qin Ming, Ji Yang and Chen Zhou, but none of them had exercise, only him.
Lin Qingqing looked at the indignant Lu Haici and smiled, "Come and light the fire so we can make fried rice in the morning." When he was young, she didn't let him light the fire because she was worried that he would burn himself. Now that Lu Haici is eight years old, Lin Qingqing can rest assured.
"Here I am." Lu Haici was very happy that his mother asked him to work. "Mom, I want to eat egg fried rice for lunch too."
"Then I'll fry it and send it to you at noon." Lin Qingqing said.
Lu Haici: "Don't bother with that. I can put the egg fried rice into my lunch box in the morning and steam it in the school cafeteria at noon."
Lin Qingqing thought: "That's fine." Although the steamed egg fried rice is not that delicious, in this era, there is no need to be so particular.
Because there was no leftover rice yesterday, the rice for the egg fried rice was freshly fried. After the rice was cooked, Lin Qingqing made vegetable egg fried rice and also made a bowl of seaweed soup.
After breakfast, Lu Haici took a full box of egg fried rice and went to the next door to find Ji Yang: "Ji Yang... Ji Yang..."
"I'm here." Ji Yang ran out with his schoolbag and a rag bag in his hand. "Lu Haici, what did you bring for lunch? I brought the steamed buns and tea eggs that my mother made."
Lu Haici said: "I brought the egg fried rice that my mother made."
"Wow..." Ji Yang said, "Shall we eat together at noon?" They often eat together and put the food everyone brings together.
Lu Haici: "Sure, I wonder what Qin Ming and Chen Zhou brought for lunch. By the way, Ji Yang, I'm going to have a little brother and sister soon."
"Ah? Is Auntie pregnant?" Ji Yang remembered that his parents had reconciled, and he was happy. "By the way, Ji Yang, my parents have reconciled, and they will never divorce again."
"That's great." Lu Haici was naturally happy for his friend when he heard that his parents had reconciled. "Will your mother give birth to little brothers and sisters in the future?"
Ji Yang said: "My dad said that he won't give birth to any brothers or sisters in the future, so I don't have any brothers or sisters. Oh... But I really want to have a brother or sister, what should I do? I want to play football with my brother or sister, and I want to fight with my brother or sister."
Lu Haici: "Then I can let my younger brother or sister be your younger brother or sister." The clever Lu Haici thought, if younger brothers or sisters have an older brother, they will have one more person to love them.
Ji Yang said: "We are best friends. Your brother or sister is my brother or sister. When auntie gives birth to a brother or sister, we will take him or her to play together."
"OK."
"Lu Hai Ci... Ji Yang..."
Qin Ming was waiting for them at the gate of the family compound. When he saw them coming, he shouted, "Hurry up."
"Here it comes..."
Ji Yang and Qin Ming started running.
Ji Yang: "Where's Chen Zhou? He hasn't come yet."
Qin Ming: "Chen Zhou is sick and will not go to school today."
Lu Haici: "Why is Chen Zhou always sick? His health is too poor. He needs to exercise every day to stay healthy like me."
Qin Ming: "Hurry up and go to school. I made an appointment with Huang Dabao and the others to play football today. I don't want to lose."
Lu Haici: "Here it comes."
Ji Yang: "Wait for me."
The three of them chased each other and ran towards the commune primary school.
Family Courtyard
Lin Qingqing finished her meal and went to clean up the room. She changed the bed sheets and quilt covers. The blood stains on the bed sheets were obvious, and the quilt covers still had the smell left over from yesterday. She wet the bed sheets and quilt covers and soaked them in a wooden basin with soap.
When it was almost eight o'clock, she made fried rice for Lu Cheng, and then rubbed the sheets that had been soaked for a while. She wanted to rub off the blood stains first.
When Lu Cheng came back, he saw Lin Qingqing rubbing the sheets in the yard. He immediately remembered what happened last night, and he hurriedly said, "I'll wash these after breakfast, you can leave them there."
Lin snorted softly: "Of course you go wash it." She never thought about washing it, she just rubbed the blood first. "By the way, remember to buy condoms at the hospital when you rest."
Lu Cheng: "..." His heart tightened, "You... you don't want to have a baby?"
Lin Qingqing said: "Let's talk about it in two years. I want to spend two years in a world of just two people."
"A world for two?" Lu Cheng was a little curious when he heard his description. "What does this mean? Does it mean that we live together as two people?"
Lin Qingqing: "Yes, a world for two means living together as a couple. We have just started. Do you want me to get pregnant and have a baby suddenly? Don't you want to live with me in a world for two for a few years first?"
"Of course not, I am willing, I really want to." Lu Cheng confessed immediately. He didn't care about offspring in the first place, and now Lin Qingqing puts the two of them before offspring, which means she values herself, so how could he not be willing. "Then with Hai Ci here, is it considered a two-person world?"
Lin Qingqing: “…” Is there any father like this
After Lu Cheng finished his breakfast, Lin Qingqing went to work. He took a wooden basin to wash the sheets and quilt covers. It was not the first time that Lu Cheng went to wash clothes. He was often seen in the family compound. So no one would find it strange that he went to wash the sheets and quilt covers today. However... The problem was that he just came back from a mission yesterday, and he went to wash the sheets and quilt covers today. People who saw him would have some thoughts.
Everyone thought that Captain Lu came back yesterday and went to wash the sheets and quilt covers today, so Captain Lu and his wife must have had a very intense experience last night.
So, when Lu Cheng washed the sheets and quilt covers, he still faced everyone's curious eyes.
Early in the morning, Lin Qingqing walked into the office and found that Hong Jun looked unwell. Seeing this, Lin Qingqing couldn't help but ask: "Good morning, Director Hong, you look unwell, are you feeling unwell?"
Hong Jun shook his head: "Our logistics department has been reformed. The four departments of finance, quartermaster, fuel, and supplies have been merged into the supply department. We used to be the supply department, and now we have also become the supply department."
Lin Qingqing listened and said: "Then three of the Minister of Finance, Minister of Ordnance, Minister of Fuel, and Minister of Materials will be removed."
Hong Jun nodded and said, "Yes, in addition to this, the three departments of ordnance, transportation, and equipment planning have been merged into the equipment department. This is a reform aimed at the logistics headquarters. If the logistics headquarters does this, our local troops will of course follow suit, but this reform will really affect the logistics headquarters."
Lin Qingqing understood that the General Logistics Department had been weakened.
Hong Jun: "Don't think too much. These are not things we can change. Alas..."
"Don't worry too much. I believe the sun will come." Lin gently comforted. Although her mood was a little subtle, she was not deeply affected because she knew that this situation would last for ten years. And then, many leaders and intellectuals would gradually be affected.
Gaoshanao Production Brigade
"Brother Aojun, I'm here." A pretty and slim girl walked out from the bushes.
"Su Fen." Lin Aojun happily ran to her side and took out a boiled egg from his trouser pocket. "Here you go. Eat it quickly to replenish your body."
"Thank you, Brother Aojun." Su Fen happily took the boiled egg from Lin Aojun's hand. However, after peeling the eggshell, she gave half to Lin Aojun.
"I don't want to eat it, you eat it..." Before Lin Aojun finished speaking, Su Fen stuffed half of the boiled egg into Lin Aojun's mouth, "I know Brother Aojun doesn't like boiled eggs, but boiled eggs can nourish the body, and I want to nourish the body with Brother Aojun too."
Su Fen was an educated youth who went to the countryside last October. She was the second of four children in her family. She was supposed to be the neglected one at home, but she was very smart and not like other neglected children. She went to the countryside last year because her family had no other choice. After going to the countryside, she analyzed the current situation and then took a fancy to Lin Aojun from the Lin family.
Grandpa Lin of the Lin family is the doctor in the brigade.
The Lin family has three branches that have not yet split up. The eldest branch has two sons. The eldest son works in the army, and the second son is Lin Aojun. He graduated from junior high school but failed to get into high school, so he became an accounting assistant in the brigade.
The second branch of the Lin family has one son and one daughter. The eldest daughter married the regiment commander in the army and is now a female soldier in the army. The second son is still young.
The three sons of the third branch of the Lin family.
No one would look down on such conditions, even if they were from the countryside. So Su Fen chose the Lin family, and Lin Aojun was tall, so she liked him.
Su Fen's cleverness is also reflected in the fact that she does not eat alone. She knows that it is one thing for a man to love you, but if you want a man to love you forever, you must also learn to love him, so that you can always have his heart. So every time Lin Aojun gave her something delicious, she would give half to Lin Aojun. She had a firm grasp on Lin Aojun's heart.
Lin Aojun was a country boy. He had only met country girls and had never met anyone with Su Fen's personality. She would act coquettishly and say nice things to him, so he liked her very much. Even though Grandma Lin objected, he was stubborn and wanted to marry her.
"Fenfen, you are so nice to me." Lin Aojun was eating the egg, feeling very satisfied. He completely forgot that the egg originally belonged to him.
Su Fen smiled sweetly at him, but then revealed a hint of sadness.
Seeing this, Lin Aojun couldn't help but ask: "Fenfen, what's wrong with you?"
Su Fen said, "I received a letter from home a few days ago. My father is sick and his condition is a bit serious. He may die at any time... He wants to see me get married... So..." At this point, she lowered her head. "Brother Aojun, if your family doesn't agree, let's forget it. If it weren't for my father's problem, I could still insist, but now, I don't want to be an unfilial daughter. I'm sorry."
"No, you didn't let me down, I let you down." Lin Aojun said, "Don't worry, I will convince grandma."
"Actually..." Su Fen raised her head and said with red eyes, "Actually there is another way. I don't know if Brother Aojun is willing to cooperate with me, but doing so may hurt your grandmother's heart. But after we get married, I will be doubly filial to her, and I will also ask for her forgiveness."
Lin Aojun didn't expect Su Fen to have a solution. When he heard her say this, he ignored everything else she said and asked anxiously, "Is there any solution?"
Su Fen said: "If you tell... you tell grandma that we have done something intimate and you must be responsible for me, grandma will definitely agree."
Lin Aojun thought about it and realized that this plan was indeed feasible. He had some understanding of his grandmother's character. Although she was strong, if he ruined the girl's reputation, she would definitely hold him responsible, so... "My grandmother will be disappointed in me."
"So after we get married, we will confess this to grandma and ask her to forgive us." Su Fen said, "As long as we sincerely ask for grandma's forgiveness, she will definitely forgive us." She didn't think of deceiving Grandma Lin all the time. She knew that if she kept deceiving her, it would be more serious if she was caught, so it would be better to confess after getting married. In this way, they are already married, and the Lin family can't regret it. And if she apologizes immediately, the Lin family will definitely think she is honest. "Brother Aojun, think about it again. Although our actions will hurt your grandma's heart, your grandma's sadness will only be temporary and will not cause any substantial harm, don't you think?... It's my fault. How could I say such a plan? We are not destined to be together. Brother Aojun, just pretend that I didn't say anything about this. I... I'm going back first."
"No." Lin Aojun held her back, "I... I'll go try."

Ding-a-ling…
Lu Cheng washed the sheets and quilt covers in the morning. He was writing a summary of this mission when the phone in the office rang: "Hello, this is Lu Cheng."
"Captain Lu, there is a comrade named Zhang Shimin at the entrance of the unit looking for you."
When Lu Cheng heard this, a sharp look flashed in his eyes: "No." The Zhang family came to look for him? Since his parents divorced when he was six years old, the Zhang family has come to look for him twice.
The first time was when he was in military school. After the Zhang family knew that he was in military school, they came to find him. It was Zhang Shimin who came. At that time, Zhang Shimin wanted to find him to go back to the Zhang family. He only said one condition, unless Zhang Shilin divorced. But Zhang Shilin would not divorce, of course. So Zhang Shimin had to give up.
And now it's the second time. Why did Zhang Shimin come to him at this time? Lu Cheng thought about the situation of the Zhang family, and then thought about the current situation, and vaguely knew the purpose of Zhang Shimin's visit.
Lu Cheng hung up the phone and continued to write his task summary. He was not affected at all. He treated the Zhang family as strangers, so how could he be affected by them
Ding-a-ling…
But not long after the phone was hung up, it rang again.
Lu Cheng couldn't help but frown, and said coldly: "From now on, if anyone with the surname Zhang comes to see me, I will not see him."
"Lu Cheng, I'm your grandma..." Grandma Lin didn't react for a moment when she heard Lu Cheng's somewhat cold words.
Lu Cheng thought it was still a call from a soldier, but he didn't expect it was Grandma Lin who called. He immediately softened his voice and said, "I'm sorry, Grandma, I didn't know it was your call. How is your family doing recently?"
When Grandma Lin heard him ask about her family, she told him the purpose of the call: "It's not a good thing at home, but it's not a big deal, it's just everyone's little thoughts." If it was in the past, Grandma Lin would certainly not tell Lu Cheng about the family scandal, and she was also worried that Lu Cheng would look down on his granddaughter. But now that her granddaughter has made a good career, Grandma Lin is no longer afraid that Lu Cheng will look down on her granddaughter, so she dared to say, "I told Qingqing before that Aojun has a girlfriend among the educated youth, and now they are getting married."
Lu Cheng raised his eyebrows. He knew that Lin Aojun had talked about a girl, and Qingqing had mentioned it. But he remembered that Qingqing mentioned that Grandma Lin did not agree with it. How come the two of them were getting married now? Lu Cheng did not ask, as he was not a gossipy person. "Do you mean that you want Big Brother to come back with us for the wedding?"
Grandma Lin said immediately, "No, no, I'm just telling you this. Your work is more important. How can they have the face to let you take leave to come back for the wedding?" These two shameless beasts still want Qingqing and his wife and Yiyang's three people to take leave to attend the wedding? Give them face.
After hearing what Lin Aojun said, Grandma Lin was upset. She had never thought that Lin Aojun and Su Fen would have a relationship to threaten her. If it was before, Grandma Lin would have kicked Lin Aojun out of the house. But in the current situation, if this matter spread, Lin Aojun would definitely be arrested. So Grandma Lin had no choice but to agree to the marriage. In fact, she was so angry that she didn't want to go through with the marriage, but in this way, it was not Lin Aojun who was embarrassed, but the Lin family.
Lu Cheng: "I understand, grandma, don't worry, I will tell Qingqing about this happy event."
Grandma Lin warned: "Lu Cheng, tell Qingqing that they don't need to come back, as your own business is more important." After all, it was a family matter, and she called just to tell her grandson and granddaughter about it.
Lu Cheng: "I understand."
