Terrorist attacks

Lin Xin slept all morning, woke up the next day, first took out his mobile phone to check the time, was in a daze, and it was almost lunch time, got up to wash up, then went downstairs and drove to his home in the suburbs.

He is busy with work, so he doesn't go home often. His father greeted him two days ago. The eldest brother came back from the army. There are only a few days in a year. I originally planned to go back yesterday afternoon, and we can still go together in the evening. Let's have a meal and talk.

But that state was beyond his expectation, and he couldn't go home, so he had to stay bored in the apartment all night.I just woke up today, and I feel much more comfortable on my body. Although there is still some pain in special parts, all kinds of movements are already smooth, especially the walking posture, which does not appear so weird.

The car drove for more than an hour, and soon arrived in front of a small three-story western-style building in the suburbs. There were two guards standing in front of the courtyard. Since grandpa retired, he has been responsible for the safety and daily life of the elderly.Lin Xin nodded to them, and saw that there was a car parked in the yard. It was old, and it was the old Jeep that my elder brother had been using in the early years.

Lin Xin parked the car. It was just after 12 o'clock. It is estimated that grandpa and the others are eating at this moment.He didn't call home in advance to report, thinking that it was just a bowl of rice, and if it was not enough, he asked his elder brother to eat less and gave him a small bowl.

Lin Xin is the youngest son in the family, so he is naturally favored.

Grandfather and father each have their own influence and prestige in the military and political circles.Lin Xin doesn't like the boring life in the army for decades. He thinks that he is not rigorous enough in life and work. Fortunately, he has an elder brother who has been strictly controlled by his father since he was a child. He grew up with sticks. Mother, the conditions are difficult, and she has suffered a lot.Lin's father is a typical soldier, he will never say one thing twice, and act vigorously and resolutely.In the past two years, I have grown older, and I have become more relaxed.

Under such circumstances, the eldest brother naturally stepped into the military and political circles. Although he didn't have much choice, he himself was relatively taciturn and rarely raised his views on his father, but Lin Xin knew that he actually admired his father. , Following in his footsteps and starting military life is the inherent tacit understanding between father and son for many years.

Lin Xin's situation is very different. Not long after he was born, his parents were too busy, so he was sent to his grandparents.The old man didn't have a chance to embrace his eldest grandson, so he finally looked forward to his younger grandson, so he was naturally extremely pampered.Lin Xin is smart, learns everything quickly, has a sweet mouth, unlike his elder brother, who is too boring, so the old man likes it more.

Although Lin Xin grew up with his grandparents, he is not as tough as his elder brother, and has endured a lot of hardships with his parents since he was a child, swallowing all his words.Therefore, when he communicates with his parents, he will not have many scruples. Although they often don't see each other, they will not be unfamiliar.

As soon as he entered the room, he casually took off his coat and hung it on the hanger. He went to the dining table and called people one by one. You, it's time to eat, you should also call back first, so that we can wait a little longer, the meal is almost finished, you just came, didn't you bury someone?"

Lin Xin laughed:

"You are afraid that if I come, there is not enough food at home, and you want my elder brother to eat less and let me do it, isn't it distressing?"

My sister-in-law is Han Qing, who is also from a military background, and her family background is quite similar. She met her eldest brother Lin Yuan in the army, and they got together naturally. They have been married for several years. Lin Xin has a little nephew, and every time he comes back, he always pesters him .

Hearing what he said, Han Qing smiled boldly:

"Forget it, even if your brother doesn't eat, I don't mind. He's in good health. It's fine for one or two meals."

The grandfather sat on the side, watched his little grandson dig a few mouthfuls vigorously with his rice bowl in his hand, and said, "Slow down, you kid, and no one is fighting for you, why can't you get rid of this anxious temper? "

Grandma served him soup:

"I asked you to come back to live, but you refused. Look, you've lost weight. Usually, no one will give you food. If you sleep outside alone, how can we rest assured?"

Only then did Lin Yuan speak:

"Xiaoxin, it's time for you to find someone."

Lin Xin secretly thought it was not good, why did he hit the muzzle of the gun as soon as he came back, drank a few mouthfuls of soup, and said, "What about Xiaotian? I brought him a gift, so I didn't come back with you?"

Han Qing smiled:

"Grandpa and grandma are here today, so don't try to change the topic. Xiaotian is not feeling well due to a cold, so he is resting upstairs."

Lin Xin took a few mouthfuls of rice vigorously, then raised his head:

"Sister-in-law, I'll go up and see Xiaotian later."

Han Qing glanced at Lin Yuan and said:

"Sister-in-law has a few candidates in hand. You can see if they are suitable. They have good family background and character. If you are free in the afternoon, come out and meet with me."

Lin Xin shook his head:

"You want me to go on a blind date? Forget it, I really don't intend to get married for the time being, and it's rare for you to come back, sister-in-law. Take a good rest, so don't bother me too much."

Although Lin Xin's words were tactful, but his meaning was clear and his attitude was firm, Han Qing couldn't say it anymore.

It's not too early for Lin Yuan to get married, but after all, he has already added a grandson to the Lin family, and he also plans to have a second child, so when Lin Xin is at this age, the family only occasionally mentions it, and doesn't really push him.

After dinner, Lin Xin went upstairs to watch his little nephew. Lin Tianwai was watching TV on the bed. When he saw his uncle coming, he climbed off the bed in one breath, ran to him with his slippers on, and hugged Lin Xin's thigh tightly: "Uncle, Gift."

Lin Xin knocked him once and picked him up:

"Little white-eyed wolf, no wonder the uncle is screaming so happily. Are you waiting for something? No!"

Lin Tian refused, and leaned over to nibble on Lin Xin with his little face:

"Uncle is a bad guy, last time he agreed to buy a gift for Xiaotian."

Lin Xin put the child on the bed, touched his right side of the face, there was a row of teeth marks and saliva, so he had to change his words: "Okay, there is a gift. Who did you learn from, this trick is too bad."

Thinking about it, I also find it funny. Needless to say, the living conditions of the eldest brother and sister-in-law, and doting on the child, this child can buy everything he wants with money.Why do you care so much about the gift he promised casually?

After all, what people promised is different after a long time of expectation. If you are looking forward to it, you will be very disappointed if you don’t get it. How you get it is unknown.

Lin Xin and his little nephew stayed together to watch TV. After a while, the little guy lay on his back and fell asleep in the middle of the bed. His clothes were covered and his round belly was exposed. Lin Xin covered him with a quilt, turned off the TV and went out. Room.

Turning around and meeting Lin Yuan, the two of them walked to the terrace.

Lin Yuan asked him:

"Don't you think about what your sister-in-law said?"

Lin Xin laughed:

"Brother, when did you join the Women's Federation? What are you thinking about? I agreed, and I will meet with any girl, have a meal, hold hands, and next year there will be a child calling you uncle?"

Lin Yuan lit a cigarette and took two puffs:

"You won't, do you still like him now?"

"It's my freedom to like it or not. Even without him, I shouldn't just marry someone casually, right? I'm comfortable alone, and I can take care of myself, really."

Lin Yuan flicked the cigarette ash with the middle finger of his right hand, and said:

"Don't blame your sister-in-law. She mentioned it first, so I'll block you. Didn't grandparents say anything? It's always good to talk about the old man's tone, lest your parents directly talk about you, that's not it." Feel free to prevaricate."

Lin Xin nodded:

"I know what you mean. On the other side of the parents, there is no pressure yet. Wait a little longer."

"Why do you waste it like this? Even if you guard your life for others, they will not remember you. You live for decades, and each has its own way of life. If you like him, you don't necessarily have to hang yourself for him, do you?"

Lin Xin held onto the railing of the terrace and patted lightly:

"That's right, but I haven't been able to fall in love with others, and I can't do what I have done.

Remember when I was a child? I eat vegetables, and I’m not very picky about food, but if it’s forced to me, and I obviously don’t want it, but I struggle to swallow it, I’m likely to suffocate to death. "

Lin Yuan also remembered that many years ago, once during the Chinese New Year, the family sat together for a reunion dinner, and his mother tried her best to pick up food for him, but in the end she couldn't eat any more. Lin Xin put down the chopsticks, and his father didn't know what to do, so he insisted on letting him eat it all. He said that he was usually too spoiled to eat a meal.

As a result, Lin Xin's mouth was full of food, and he couldn't swallow it no matter what, his throat was blocked, his eyes were full of tears, his cheeks were pouting and flushed, and finally he couldn't help but ran to the bathroom and vomited his stomach upside down. empty.

Grandpa and grandma scolded dad, saying that he usually doesn't stay at home and would only make trouble for the children when he comes back.Father Lin no longer deliberately managed him. The simple and easy parenting strategy used by the eldest son did not work at all for the youngest son.

Lin Xin was lying on the bed alone, curled up with a small body, his stomach was empty, but for a long time, he just wanted to vomit when he saw food.

Lin Yuan said that he stopped eating because of choking.

Also now.He pressed the cigarette against the wall tiles of the balcony, and the ash fell and gradually extinguished.

Lin Xin didn't speak, watched his elder brother move, and waited for him to speak.

Lin Yuan said:

"Maybe you're right, take your time, and when you meet someone you like, it doesn't matter if you lose a few years for him. It's much better than spending your entire life in a daze, and dragging someone along for decades."
