Chapter 237 Liu Lan is touched, An Xin is moved

The Liu family didn't publicize their daughter's affairs. They knew the seriousness of the problem...so they didn't want outsiders to know about it, and kept it a secret from the beginning...

My family is not a big family in the village, and we don't have any close relatives. We can just keep it to ourselves and be happy...after a few years, we can just tell everyone that our daughter is married.

When the villagers saw Lin Chen, they thought he was here to treat Liu's eye disease again and didn't think much of it...

In fact, Liu Lan's father's eyesight had already recovered, but outsiders didn't know it.

……

At the Liu family dinner table

Lin Chen took out a red paper package.

"Mom and Dad, this is the betrothal money I give to Lanzi. Lanzi will not fail to show all the necessary etiquette..."

After hearing Lin Chen change his words, the couple smiled at each other and said, "Well, just give me a few dollars as a token of your appreciation. The things you sent over last night were already enough..."

Lin Chen had already delivered a lot of things in advance last night, so that he could travel light today and not arouse envy.

"It's my duty. You just need to take good care of your younger brothers and sisters in the future. I will take good care of Lanzi... In two years, when we have a child, we will take you both to live in the city." Lin Chen said as he stuffed the betrothal gift for Liu Lan into his father-in-law's hands.

The family had a happy lunch together...

In order to avoid arousing suspicion from outsiders, Lin Chen took Liu Lan back to the city at around one o'clock.

Along the way, Liu Lan felt the spring breeze was so refreshing, and the wild flowers on the roadside looked more beautiful than in previous years.

Lin Chen agreed to take the family into the city, and Liu Lan was so moved that her eyes turned red.

"Brother Lin Chen, I'm going to pick some wild flowers. I've been coming here often since I was a child..."

After Lin Chen stopped his bicycle, he saw someone looking for wild vegetables not far away. He knew that Liu Lan would also come out to look for wild vegetables to fill her stomach at this time every year.

"Go ahead! I'm watching you, you'll be fine."

When Liu Lan was a child, she would pick some wild flowers every spring when she picked wild vegetables. Not only were they beautiful, but the fragrance of the flowers could help to relieve hunger.

Although I don’t have to worry about food now, I still want to pick some when I see them.

……

Evening

Liu Lan left the courtyard with the key Qin Huairu gave her.

Now everything is going smoothly and there is no hesitation.

When Xiao Jingru came home from school and didn't see Liu Lan, she asked curiously, "Sister Huairu, isn't Sister Lan at home?"

Qin Huairu thought that she would cry tonight: "She went back to her hometown to visit, and she will probably be back on Monday. Let's have a simple meal!"

"Hey, let me help you..."

Liu Lan was in a good mood all the way. Just as she came out of the alley, she met three idiots coming back together.

When the three guys saw that Liu Lan was dressed up like a flower today, they immediately stopped playing and stood there like idiots.

"Comrade Liu Lan, why are you still going out so late?"

Liu Lan ignored Dalengzi and left with a blank expression... as if she didn't see the three people.

Looking at Liu Lan's back, the three of them sighed.

Liu Daleng felt the most regretful among the three guys: "The good cabbages were eaten by pigs! I didn't know that boy had given the betrothal gift so early..."

After Sha Zhu kicked him, he said: "Come on, come on, what's so good about it? The one who can touch is the king, these are just clouds. A girl came to our cafeteria today, you can go and see how she is tomorrow, and also help me to check it out..."

The long-faced guy has the same opinion as Shazhu...

When Liu Daleng heard that there was a new female comrade in the cafeteria, his regret immediately disappeared.

"Get lost! The old rule is whoever takes the photo owns it. What do you mean by censoring you?"

The long-faced man also joined in the fun: "Dalengzi is right, we will follow the old rules from now on. Those who are capable will eat, and those who are not will get out. I also told you to keep an eye on things for me!"

The three of them ran back to the courtyard noisily...

……

When Lin Chen got off work, he also gave the key to Xiyang Courtyard to An Xin in the Medical Department...

The other party was still a little embarrassed, but when she thought about how the simple dormitory could not compare to the exquisite courtyard... she thanked him and took the key generously.

"Comrade An Xin, do you want me to help you move there tomorrow?"

"No, Angie and I don't have much, just a few clothes. But...but we want to use the bedding and other things in your bedroom, so tell your sister-in-law and don't make her angry. We will buy new things and give them back to your sister-in-law when we get our salary..."

Lin Chen looked at her who was still restrained and smiled: "Use it as you like. Since I'm lending it to you, I'm not afraid of you using it. You're not as lively as Anjie, so don't be so polite to me."

An Xin thought that her sister was carefree and had always liked you...how could I compare with her.

Now An Xin has had strange feelings towards Lin Chen for a long time, but she is unwilling to admit it. After all, she is engaged and he has a family.

"Anjie is young and ignorant. Director Lin... please forgive me."

Lin Chen looked at her and smiled: "It's OK if no one calls me Brother Lin Chen. Even though I'm only a few days older than you, I'm still older!"

An Xin saw that there was indeed no one around and smiled: "Do you like people calling you brother so much?"

The two looked at each other for three seconds, and An Xin quickly looked away.

"You look so pretty when you smile... You should smile more in the future and don't put so much pressure on yourself. I will slowly help you settle down..."

After being praised by Lin Chen and promised to slowly resolve the problem, An Xin felt as if she had really found a safe haven in her heart.

She looked at Lin Chen again: "I... I'm afraid that I will implicate you. I heard that Secretary Wan and Director Yang both value you very much. We are just old friends from the previous generation. You don't have to protect us sisters."

Lin Chen thought that if the people with the system can’t protect you from such a small matter… then what’s the point of doing this?

"I'm not afraid, so why should you be afraid? I told you to take your time, there will always be a way. The head of the personnel department is my brother. On the day your files were delivered, Director Xia happened to be visiting a brother unit with Secretary Wan and Director Yang. I am fully responsible, so no one knows your specific situation. You can go to work with confidence in the future..."

Lin Chen's words made An Xin feel warm. She had not been happy for a single day in the past three years since her father ran away with the second wife's family... She was only eighteen years old at the time, and her mother died of depression. If it weren't for her brother and sister-in-law, she didn't know how to live.

"Well, Anjie should be calling for dinner! You should also get off work early, your sister-in-law is pregnant and needs your care."

Just as An Xin was about to leave, Lin Chen grabbed her tender little hand. This move scared An Xin... Just as she instinctively wanted to pull it back, she found a handful of money in her hand.

"You don't have much money, do you? Take these for now and return them to me when you have more money."

An Xin almost misunderstood the other party: "Well, it's indeed not much. I...I will pay you back with my salary..."
