Siheyuan: The wife was intercepted after returning from the battlefield

Lin Ping smiled and said, "Why not? You saved your sister-in-law's life. You will be our relative from now on."

Even if Chu Xiao had not risked his life to save Lin Qingyan, Lin Ping would still be able to resurrect Lin Qingyan. However, this does not mean that Lin Ping will not remember Chu Xiao's kindness.

Chu Xiao was very touched when she heard that Lin Ping was willing to take her over to live with him. However, she also understood that she had no relationship with the Lin family. If she just moved in, it would feel like she was repaying a favor. So she smiled and said, "There's no need to move to my brother's house. I'd rather go back to my own home. After all, I have to learn to live independently instead of relying on others. As long as my brother and sister-in-law can come to visit Xiaoxiao from time to time, that's fine."

Lin Qingyan blurted out without thinking to let Chu Xiao move in with her, but she regretted it as soon as she said it. After all, family secrets cannot be known to outsiders. Once they are known by outsiders, it will be a big trouble.

Hearing Chu Xiao say this, he felt relieved and said, "Okay, when you are discharged from the hospital, my brother and I will visit you often."

Chu Xiao smiled sweetly and said, "Thank you, brother and sister-in-law."

Lin Ping asked again: "Xiaoxiao, what do you do in the steel mill?"

Chu Xiao smiled and said, "Thanks to my brother's greeting, my logistics work is now quite easy."

Lin Ping nodded and said, "It's good to work in logistics, it's suitable for a little girl like you. If you are bullied in the factory, you must tell me and I will help you vent your anger."

Chu Xiao nodded vigorously with red eyes and said, "Brother, I remember it."

The two men talked to Chu Xiao for a while, and then Chu Xiao fell into a deep sleep. After all, he had lost too much blood and needed to rest.

After leaving the hospital, Lin Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately Xiaoxiao didn't agree, otherwise if she really moved to our house, it would be inconvenient for us. It would be bad if she knew about our affairs."

Lin Ping smiled and said, "Okay, don't think too much. We'll just take better care of her in the future. I'll take you back to the street office to work first."

Maoer Hutong, Yanru's home.

The four girls all went to school, and Ya Ru did some embroidery work at home to supplement the family income. Since they lived in a private house with its own yard, there was not much to do.

Today, Ya Ru had just finished her embroidery when she heard someone knocking on the courtyard door. She went to the door and opened it. It was an old lady from the next courtyard. She asked, "Auntie, what's up?"

The auntie smiled and said, "You must be the new resident. I'm from the next yard. You can call me Auntie Zhang."

Ya Ru lived in Shamao Hutong, and she had seen everything. She knew that the aunt in front of her would not come to her for no reason, so she smiled and asked, "Is there anything wrong with Aunt Zhang?"

It turned out that ever since Ya Ru and the others moved into this courtyard, Lin Ping wanted them to say goodbye to the past, so he gave Ya Ru and the others the spring of life to drink. Now Ya Ru is glamorous and looks like she is in her early twenties. Doesn't this attract the attention of others?

Lin Ping's original intention was to make Ya Ru's former acquaintances unable to recognize her, so that there would be less trouble in the future. However, he did not think that even without the Fountain of Life, Ya Ru would be surrounded by trouble wherever she went with her appearance. Besides, Ya Ru always wore makeup in the past, so no one would recognize her even without the Fountain of Life.

Aunt Zhang lives in the next courtyard. She fell in love with Ya Ru at first sight. After all, there are five sisters in this family. If she could marry Ya Ru, the whole courtyard would belong to her in the future. So she came to test Ya Ru's opinion.

It is said that no one who has lived through the war years is a simple person, and they all have their own little tricks in their minds.

Aunt Zhang smiled and asked, "What's your name, young lady? How old are you? Are you married?"

As soon as Ya Ru heard this, she knew what was going on. She also knew the purpose of this auntie's visit, and said with a smile: "Auntie Zhang, my name is Zhou Ya Ru, I am unmarried, and I live here with my four sisters."

Aunt Zhang was delighted when she heard this and said with a smile, "I think you are old enough, Yaru. My second son is a good match for you. Besides, my second son is a regular worker in the food factory. How about you meet him?"

When Ya Ru heard this, she realized that it was true. She knew that such things had been inevitable ever since she showed her true face to others. Moreover, she looked even better than before. In addition, she had a private house and her family consisted of only girls. There were probably many people who were plotting against her.

Ya Ru was prepared for all this and smiled, "Aunt Zhang, thank you for your kindness. I don't plan to get married yet. After all, I still have four younger sisters to raise. I can't just get married and enjoy the good life and abandon them."

Aunt Zhang knew that there were many people around who had the same idea as her, so she said, "Ya Ru, I don't agree with you saying that. It's not easy for you to raise four sisters by yourself. If you have someone to help you, you can be more relaxed, right? When your sisters are married in the future, you will enjoy a happy life."

Ya Ru sneered in her heart when she heard this. Sure enough, she was planning to buy a house. But she said, "I appreciate your kindness, Aunt Zhang, but I really can't agree to it. Please go back."

Seeing that Ya Ru was not interested, Aunt Zhang said with a bad face: "Ya Ru, you girls will be bullied if you don't have a man in your life."

Aunt Zhang's words were somewhat threatening. Ya Ru also understood what Aunt Zhang meant. Her face darkened and she said, "Aunt Zhang, this is a new society. I don't believe anyone dares to bully us. The police station is not just for show."

Aunt Zhang said gloomily, "Then you guys take care of yourself."

As they were talking, Dashuang, Xiaoshuang, Daqing and Xiaoqing came back from school and saw Aunt Zhang and Yaru talking. However, the atmosphere was a little strange. Dashuang asked, "Sister Yaru, what are you talking about?"

Ya Ru smiled and said, "Nothing, just go inside, I'll go to the market to buy some vegetables."

Dashuang handed the schoolbag to Xiaoshuang and said, "Sister Yaru, I'll go with you."

Aunt Zhang could only leave in boredom. On the way, Dashuang asked, "Sister Yaru, that aunt looks calculating. Don't be fooled by her."

Hearing this, Ya Ru poked Da Shuang's forehead and said with a smile, "Do you think I have come here for nothing all these years? She can plot against me whenever she wants?"

Da Shuang asked curiously, "We haven't gotten to know the neighbors since we moved here, what is she doing here?"

Hearing this, Ya Ru smiled bitterly and said, "You just want to propose marriage to me and occupy our yard. You have the same idea as those people in Shamao Hutong."

Da Shuang stamped his feet in anger and said, "They really want to blind their minds. They dare to steal my brother's girl. Sister Yaru, you better stay away from them."

Hearing this, Ya Ru said unhappily: "Your brother is the only one in your eyes now. Do you want me to arrange for you to serve your brother?"

Da Shuang grew up in Shamao Hutong, and naturally understood what Ya Ru meant. His face turned red with shame and he stomped his feet, saying, "Sister Ya Ru, I won't pay attention to you. I'm still young."

Ya Ru patted her little head and said, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore."

Lin Ping returned to the police station. As soon as he entered the office, Lin Qingya pushed the door open and asked, "Brother Pingzi, I saw you leave in a hurry. Is there something wrong?"

Lin Ping told Lin Qingya about how Lin Qingyan was almost shot. After getting over the shock, Lin Qingya patted her chest and said, "Fortunately, everything is fine. This girl named Xiaoxiao is so pitiful. We should go to see her more often in the future."

Lin Ping nodded when he heard this, and just as he was about to speak, the phone rang.

As soon as the call was connected, Li Huaide's voice came from the receiver: "Pingzi, I'm sorry for you..."

After listening to Li Huaide's words, Lin Ping realized that the food issue had been known to the leaders of the Ministry of Industry. This was all within Lin Ping's expectations. After all, he had obtained so much food, and sooner or later it would be known by the higher-ups. So he smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll meet with the big leader."

Li Huaide was relieved to see that Lin Ping did not blame him, and said, "Okay, come to the leader's house tonight, I'll send a car to pick you up."

Just after getting off work in the evening, Lin Ping arrived at the door of the police station and saw Secretary Li Huaide waiting for him. When he saw Lin Ping coming out, he came up to him and said, "Director Lin, I was sent by Director Li to pick you up."

Lin Ping nodded and said, "Okay, you lead the way and I'll follow." After that, he got into his car.

family courtyard.

After inspection, the two cars stopped at the door of a small building. When we got out of the car, we saw Li Huaide and Director Yang waiting at the door.

The three of them came to the living room, and Lin Ping saw the big boss in the play stand up and said, "You are Xiao Lin, right?"

After Lin Ping shook hands with the big leader, he smiled and said, "Leader, I am Lin Ping."

The big boss smiled and said, "You are not an outsider after all. Let's sit down and talk."

After sitting down, the big boss said, "Xiao Lin, you should know why I asked you to come this time, right?"

Of course Lin Ping knew it was about food, so he nodded and said, "I know."

Seeing that Lin Ping did not hide anything, the leader was satisfied and said, "Xiao Lin, our country is in trouble right now. If you have the ability, please help the country."

Lin Ping smiled and said, "Leader, if you want to be good to yourself, you should do your best to benefit the world. I understand this principle."

The big boss clapped his hands and said, "Okay, well said. I won't ask you where the food comes from. I just want the results. You don't have to feel any burden. I'll take the blame if anything goes wrong."

Lin Ping smiled and said, "I feel relieved with what the leader said. As for the source of the food, I have nothing to hide. I accidentally saved a person and he gave me all the food. I don't know who he is, but since he has food and we are short of food, why not do it?"

The big boss nodded upon hearing this and said, "As long as it comes from a legitimate source, there's nothing to worry about."

Lin Ping nodded and said, "I have asked for food several times, and the quantity was not small. I have never heard of any place in our country where food is lost, so I guess his food comes from overseas. You know, there is no shortage of food in the West. Although our relationship is tense, some people will still do it for money."

The leader frowned upon hearing this and said, "Xiao Lin, but we haven't received any news of food entering the country at the border."

Lin Ping smiled and said, "Our coastline is too long, and we will always be unable to defend ourselves."

The big boss also felt that what Lin Ping said made sense, and nodded, "What you said makes sense, then was it you who caused so many poor villages to have extra grain for no reason last year?"

Lin Ping nodded and smiled: "Although food is expensive, I also made a lot of money. I will use this money to buy food and distribute it to the villagers."

The leader was so pleased with Lin Ping that he smiled and said, "Okay, our country needs people like you. Okay, let's get back to the topic. How much food can you get?"
