struggle in a small town

Chapter 96 I'm finally relieved this time
After a busy day, Zhang Xuejiao received a call from Lin Zhiyuan when she was about to go home and cook.

Nothing important, just tell her to stop cooking and go back to his parents' house to eat.

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Xuejiao looked at the date, May 5, Monday.

She thought Lin Zhiyuan was slower than her, but when she entered, he was already sitting in the living room.

"You're fast."

Song Xiuni came out of the kitchen: "Xiaoxue is here, is it hot? Xiaoyuan pour some water quickly."

"Auntie me"

"Also called Auntie!"

Zhang Xuejiao opened her mouth, but couldn't utter the word "Mom".

Lin Zhiyuan helped her out: "Mom, did you pay for the change? Just let Xiaoxue call, but you paid for it."

"It must be given, it is indispensable."

Song Xiuni heard movement at the door, and opened the door to let Lin Aimin in.

Zhang Xuejiao quickly called "Uncle" again.

Lin Aimin was carrying two plastic bags in his hands, sweat was all over his forehead: "It's getting hotter and hotter, it's time to change half of your sleeves."

Zhang Xuejiao was going to pick up the plastic bags, but Lin Aimin avoided her: "You've been tired all day, sit and rest, don't worry about it."

Lin Zhiyuan greeted her: "It's just like going back to your own home, not so particular."

Zhang Xuejiao was silent, thinking that if I went back to my natal family, I would have more work to do.

Lin Aimin went to the kitchen with Song Xiuni carrying a plastic bag, but she didn't follow after thinking about it.

This was the first time since she and Lin Zhiyuan fell in love, she came to the door as a girlfriend, so she was a little more reserved.

Although her uncles and aunts watched her grow up, but now her status has changed, she has to pretend.

She walked to Lin Zhiyuan and sat down, and bumped him with her elbow: "It's so early today?"

"Now that someone is helping me, I can be lazy."

"Who?"

Lin Zhiyuan put his arms around her shoulders habitually, and leaned his head on her: "Do you still remember the tallest one?"

"I have an impression. Does that name have a homonym?"

"Yes, it's Zhang Fu."

Zhang Xuejiao matched the name with the person.

When I first saw this name, I thought it was weird when I pronounced it. Lin Zhiyuan said it was homonymous with "husband".

At that time, she also felt that when naming a child in the future, all kinds of homonyms must be avoided, lest the child be bullied because of the name.

"Zhang Fu is a fan of military affairs. The equipment seems to have a sense of self-consciousness in his hands, and it is very easy to play. I handed over the four people to him."

"Ah."

"The camera is installed, and it will be debugged tomorrow. The seller said that it can monitor without blind spots."

"Ah."

"The business card was printed this morning, let's see?"

Lin Zhiyuan touched his trouser pocket while talking, but it was empty.

"I left it in the office and forgot to bring it."

Zhang Xuejiao turned her head slightly, her cheek just touched his hair, and it was a little itchy.

I can't see his expression through the hair, only the tip of his nose, well, it's so pretty.

He is indeed the man he picked.

Lin Zhiyuan said in a heavy tone, "I'll show you tomorrow."

"Ah."

"The indoor roller skating rink is almost ready, and we have to wait to expand the equipment area."

"Ah."

Lin Zhiyuan talked a lot today, he babbled on a lot of things, and even repeated some topics several times.

The more Zhang Xuejiao listened, the more she felt that something was wrong with him, but she didn't interrupt him.

Lin Zhiyuan suddenly stopped talking, and after a while of silence, he called "wife", and when Zhang Xuejiao replied "I'm listening", he called "wife" again.

Zhang Xuejiao covered his forehead with her hand and rubbed it lightly: "Are you tired?"

"some."

Zhang Xuejiao moved her hand down and closed his eyelids: "Let me sleep for a while."

"wife"

"here I am."

Lin Zhiyuan let out a long breath and fell silent.

Listening to his slow and steady breathing, Zhang Xuejiao knew that he was asleep, and dared not move for fear of waking him up.

She always fell asleep quickly at night, always falling asleep before Lin Zhiyuan.

Moreover, she was a heavy sleeper. In Lin Zhiyuan's words, she didn't even know that two people came to carry her out and throw her away.

So she didn't know what time Lin Zhiyuan went to bed at night.

It's just that Lin Zhiyuan went out early and returned late in the past few days, he looked really tired, but he said he was fine after asking.

Zhang Xuejiao thought about it and closed her eyes.

Song Xiuni and Lin Aimin looked out through the crack of the kitchen door, and saw the young couple cuddling each other, and the evening sun shone on their legs through the window, like a beautiful still life painting.

Song Xiuni tugged at Lin Aimin's sleeve, the two closed the door lightly and continued cooking.

Song Xiuni was cutting the vegetables in her hands, and she muttered, "Old Lin, Lao Lin, I'm finally relieved this time."

"I said earlier that it would definitely work."

Song Xiuni wanted to stab him a few words, but held back.

Who poured cold water on it?

Now I say that I have the foresight, and the old couple will live their lives, no one knows who.

"Tomorrow morning, let's sell the stocks together." Song Xiuni said as she remembered, "Where did you put the card number that Xiaoyuan gave you?"

"In the coffee table drawer."

"I remember that we still saved a few death dates, and there would be fifty or sixty thousand for an additional one. Why don't you take it out at a loss?"

Lin Aimin thought for a while and made a suggestion: "Mortgage the bookstore and help Xiaoyuan first."

"no!"

Song Xiuni is most afraid of foreign debts.

Even if it was Liu Huifang who lent her money at the beginning, those few years were not very stable.

Not to mention owed to the bank?
Zhang Xuejiao, who was asleep, had no idea that Lin Zhiyuan had borrowed money from his parents again when he came back today.

The bank loan has to be repaid every month, and the construction of the expansion center has to be taken into account. His economy is very tight recently.

But he never mentioned a word to Zhang Xuejiao.

Although he is not as machismo as Zhang Jianguo, he also thinks that a man should behave like a man, and solve problems by himself, and not let his wife get angry together.

Besides, Zhang Xuejiao is quite busy.

There are more and more groups, and more and more customers. Zuo Ting and Lin Tiantian are already tired of coping. Zhang Xuejiao's wish to quit is purely a dream.

Lin Zhiyuan slept for more than an hour and felt much better.

As soon as he moved, Zhang Xuejiao woke up immediately, looking at the tea table in front of him blankly, as if this was not her home.

Lin Zhiyuan found that he was leaning on her shoulder, so he quickly sat up straight: "Does your shoulder hurt?"

"What?"

Zhang Xuejiao blinked hard, oh yes, this is Aunt Song's house.

"Is it numb?"

"Fortunately."

Zhang Xuejiao said and rubbed her shoulders: "I fell asleep no matter what."

"Honey, give me a hug~"

Zhang Xuejiao couldn't laugh or cry and leaned over: "Hold~"

Lin Zhiyuan hugged her tightly, his voice was hoarse after waking up: "I dreamed that you gave birth to twins, they look exactly like you, very cute."

"It's easy to have two babies at once."

"I don't want to wait any longer, let's get married."

Zhang Xuejiao patted him on the back lightly: "I want to get a certificate with you on January 1 next year, and I want to be with you forever."

"It's all superstition"

Zhang Xuejiao supported him by the shoulder and pushed him away: "I'm superstitious, and I want to get the certificate that day. What, you don't want to live with me forever?"

Lin Zhiyuan didn't dare to accept this hat: "How could it be? One life is not enough, I want to live forever."

The kitchen door opened, and Song Xiuni poked her head out: "Are you all awake? Wash your hands and eat."
