Sweet 80s

Lin Xiangdong was stunned at first, then walked forward in panic.

"Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to rest at home?"

Wang Shuping turned her body and looked behind the other person.

At this time, Yang Hongxia's burning gaze not far away also followed Lin Xiangdong and looked towards them.

"She must be Hongxia."

Wang Shuping's words made Lin Xiangdong, who was already sweating, shiver and goose bumps appeared on his arms.

Lin Xiangdong didn't dare to look back, and his eyes unconsciously showed a lot of panic and helplessness.

"Ah, right."

"Really? If it is, it is. If it is not, it is not. You two grew up together. You don't know her yet."

"That is!"

Lin Xiangdong knew that his derogatory words to Yang Hongxia had already left a deep impression on Wang Shuping.

Now that she saw a completely different person, Wang Shuping, who was used to thinking too much, was afraid that she would really be angry with herself this time.

Wang Shuping pursed her lips and raised her eyebrows, the corners of her mouth suddenly lifted, and a watery smile appeared on her face.

"You're pretty, but you really have no idea what you're talking about. You just talk nonsense."

After saying that, Wang Shuping raised her hand and held up the popsicle: "Okay, eat it quickly, it will melt soon... ah, it has melted already!"

She quickly raised her arm and tried to drink the sugar water flowing down her arm with her mouth, but Lin Xiangdong was one step ahead of her.

He pulled Wang Shuping's arm up and put it into his mouth and was about to lick it, but was suddenly pulled back by her.

"What are you doing? There are people everywhere in broad daylight. If Erbao hadn't been clamoring for popsicles, I wouldn't be waiting for you here..."

Then, Wang Shuping stuffed the remaining unmelted popsicle horizontally into Lin Xiangdong's mouth, turned around and left with a red face.

Only Yang Hongxia was left, clutching the decorative belt around her skirt with a dejected look on her face, but she still had to put on a smiling face while talking to her neighbors.

After dinner, the Lin family gathered in the yard to chat.

Lin Sifang took out the tobacco leaves that Lin Xiangdong bought for him from the house. There were still some tobacco leaves left, and this time he wanted to try what was different about the tobacco his son bought from the city.

Lin Sifang buried the pipe in tobacco leaves, crushed it and compacted it after it was full.

The tobacco leaves in the pipe burn red when lit.

Lin Sifang took a deep breath.

The pure fragrance that enters your mouth is the aroma brought by the burning of natural plants.

After exhaling the mist, although the fragrance is no longer in the mouth, the lingering fragrance lingers for a long time.

Before it disappears, he takes another sip.

This is the taste of high-quality tobacco leaves. It looks rustic and simple, but it is very delicious when you take a sip.

Every time he took a puff of cigarette, his lips moved and made a clicking sound.

Wisps of smoke rose up and diffused in the air, flickering with the light of burning tobacco leaves.

After finishing his cigarette, Lin Sixiang leaned forward and placed his pipe under a lush wisteria tree in the yard.

The pipe was turned upside down on the edge of the tree trunk, knocking against it a few times.

The ash, with residual heat and a hint of red fire, slowly fell onto the moist ground under the tree.

The time squeezed out from the busy wheat harvest always seems more precious than usual.

The palm-leaf fan in grandma's hand was flapping on herself and her grandchildren who were squatting on the ground playing with glass balls.

It can both remove heat and repel mosquitoes.

Erbao was having a great time playing, and it wasn’t like he had any brain problems.

He stood up happily and ran to Ye Lu, shouting as he ran: "Third Aunt, come and play with us."

It was just a careless remark from the child, but the expressions on the adults' faces became subtle.

Wang Shuping didn't understand why he suddenly changed his mind.

Of course, the two stupid sons would not understand the relationship between them if left alone. They must have been taught by someone.

She glanced at Lin Xiangdong understandingly, but Lin Xiangdong didn't notice anything was wrong yet and was just busy talking to the brothers.

After hearing this, Ye Lu smiled awkwardly and waved her hands shyly: "I don't know how to play, you guys play."

Pan Dayun smacked his lips and turned to face his mother-in-law, Li Xiuzhi, and said with a smile, "Mom, the children are calling me like that. It seems that the Lin family is going to have another wedding."

Li Xiuzhi was calm and composed, without much expression, and just said meaningfully: "Great, it would be great if there were happy events every day."

Pan Dayun wanted her mother-in-law to express her opinion, but unexpectedly, Li Xiuzhi ignored her completely.

Feeling bored, Pan Dayun moved a chair and sat next to Wang Shuping.

Using her elbow to nudge her, she whispered, "What did Erbao see? Why did he suddenly call me auntie?"

Wang Shuping smiled and shook her head, thinking, 'I didn't teach you this, don't blame me later...'

"Hey, the kid doesn't understand anything. You can't call the person who came back with his uncle sister, just call her whatever you want."

"Hmph~ Judging from the way she dresses, she may not be from a good family..."

Pan Dayun first glanced at Ye Lu in the distance, his expression full of disdain, then lowered his voice and spoke sarcastically.

"They came here to harvest the wheat, but they didn't even work in the fields. The third brother's vision is getting worse and worse. He is much worse than the last one."

What could Wang Shuping say? She didn't even say a few words to Ye Lu.

However, he felt a little unhappy when he saw Pan Dayun's contemptuous look and arrogant attitude.

If they criticize others in front of me, I don’t know how they will criticize me and Lin Xiangdong behind our backs when I get home.

"Sister-in-law, good or bad, that's Third Brother's family affair, as long as he likes it."

This bland answer still failed to satisfy Pan Dayun's curiosity. This time she simply raised her head and called the other person over.

"Sister, come, sit here, let's chat."

Ye Lu was well-behaved. She looked at Lin Xiangjun first, and after the other party gave her a reassuring look, she picked up the chair and sat over.

Take advantage of the few seconds when the other party comes over.

Pan Dayun quickly raised his hand to cover his mouth and muttered something to Wang Shuping.

"See? He's so obedient. I don't know what means he used to get close to the third brother."

When Ye Lu came over, Pan Dayun immediately changed his expression.

The corners of his mouth slightly raised, his eyes twinkling with a friendly light as he asked, "Sister, how old are you this year?"

Ye Lu's eyes turned. With the help of Xu Yuanyuan, she had basically grasped the relationships between the people in the family.

Facing the questions from the eldest daughter-in-law of the Lin family.

Ye Lu prefers to view it as an examination that mainly involves face-to-face conversation and observation between the 'examiner' and the 'candidate' after the candidate has passed the civil service written examination.

Although the identity of this examiner is of little significance to the Lin family, for a newbie in the workplace who has just joined the company, he has to be polite to the examiner at the door.

Ye Lu treated the conversation as a kind of "interview" before getting married, and answered obediently: "23."

This age is not surprising, Ye Lu looks to be in her twenties.

"Yo, a generation younger than the third one."

"Yes, I am also a monkey."

Pan Dayun raised his eyebrows and said to Wang Shuping beside him: "Shuping, she is younger than you. If they get together, you have to call her sister-in-law."

What a great attempt to sow discord. Wang Shuping doesn't care about such meaningless ridicule and will just say whatever the time comes.

Ye Lu quickly took over the conversation: "No matter whether it will work out in the future, you can just call me Lulu. I don't care about the name or anything else."

Pretty!

Ye Lu's words made Pan Dayun feel deflated.

But Pan Dayun couldn't just let it go like that. Her eyes rolled around and she immediately started talking about the other party's family affairs.

"You two are so different, do your parents have any objections?"

“They don’t care about me.”

At first, Ye Lu's answer made people misunderstand that she was a bad girl who could not be controlled by her parents. Unexpectedly, her next words slapped Pan Dayun in the face.

Before anyone could ask, Ye Lu told him everything about her family situation.

She is from the south and her family's business covers many categories. She once worked with Lin Xiangjun on a project and they became friends.

In business, Lin Xiangjun demonstrates unique and keen insight.

She, who also grew up in the business world, was deeply attracted by the other party's unique charm.

The two started a romantic relationship shortly after they met.

"I have three older brothers and I am the youngest. My parents told me that I don't have to think about anything and just play whatever I want. What's more, Xiang Jun is not bad either."

Ye Lu was worried that professional terms were difficult to understand, so she thoughtfully converted the family's financial resources into easy-to-understand numbers.

In the 80s, the amount of her business transactions was in the millions, making her a real rich girl.

At this time, Wang Shuping was glad that she did not agree with Pan Dayun's words. She thought that her strong background could make the other party shut up.

Unexpectedly, Pan Dayun's words poured out like a waterfall, at an extremely fast speed and without any pause.

"But do you know all about his past?" This was a bit inappropriate, as it was someone else's turn to mention Lin Xiangjun's past.

But Ye Lu acted nonchalant: "Of course, it's just a divorce, what's the big deal."

"Can your parents accept this?"

Wang Shuping felt something was wrong the more she listened.

The more intense the topic between the two, the more uncontrollable Pan Dayun's mouth became.

"Cough cough."

Wang Shuping coughed twice, actually wanting to remind the other party to stop.

Pan Dayun was in high spirits and paid no attention to himself at all.

"What's the big deal? Divorce is not a sin. Even in ancient times, couples could divorce if they couldn't live together, let alone in modern times."

"Then do you know why they divorced?"

To Pan Dayun, Ye Lu's sudden silence was like finally finding a guiding light after groping in the dark for a long time.

Ye Lu frowned, her brows gathered together, the smile on her face gradually disappeared, and the corners of her mouth slowly drooped.

Her eyes were full of doubt and confusion: "It's just... because... I don't love you anymore."

The other party's tone became cautious due to testing, which made Pan Dayun's eyes and eyebrows filled with an indescribable pride.

When Ye Lu wanted to continue to find out more, Pan Dayun braked in time.

There was a smug light in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth were raised, with a victorious attitude.

"Hmm~"

What an intriguing "hmm".
