Siheyuan: Qin Huairu is a lucky charm for her husband

Chapter 2144 Going to the City for a Trendy Hairstyle

That day, after hearing Guo Da Piezi's story in the office, Li Huaide was still cursing Liao Yucheng and Tong Zhi for never having seen a woman. He never imagined that the very next day it would happen to him… Damn it, drinking really does lead to trouble.

Even if Li Huaide racked his brains, he couldn't have imagined that someone would deliberately dig a trap for him. He still thought he hadn't explained things clearly...

After slapping himself twice, Li Huaide had no choice but to grit his teeth and admit the truth.

This guy wasn't afraid of what Jia Zhangshi might do; he was mainly afraid of what Yao's widow's family would say. He'd be the one to suffer then…

"Let's take it one step at a time! I can't fall for her tricks again next time; she's completely clueless."

As Li Huaide was speaking, he went into the kitchen to prepare something to eat, but he was dumbfounded when he entered the kitchen!

"You damn Jia Zhangshi, you better leave me some too!"

Li Huaide looked at the ransacked kitchen and beat his chest in frustration. There was no point in saying anything now.

After giving Jia Zhangshi a good scolding, Li Huaide had no choice but to go out and deal with Widow Yao.

Since he was spending money to support that mother and daughter every month, he figured he might as well go... After leaving the house, Li Huaide went straight to Widow Yao's house.

But for Widow Yao, things have been much easier these past few years! Since hooking up with Li Huaide, no more bachelors or lazy bums have bothered her. And now her son doesn't have to go hungry...

Outside the Summer Palace

This is He Xiulian's first time entering Beijing, and she is curious about everything.

"Sister Yuling, is this the Summer Palace? I've heard of it before, but I never thought I'd actually come here today."

"Yes, this is a park now. But everyone still prefers to go boating on Beihai Lake..."

Just as the two were talking, Lin Chen arrived with Tian Yezi.

"Xiulian, come down quickly, Secretary Lin's car has arrived!"

Upon hearing that it was Secretary Lin who had come to pick her up, the little girl jumped off the back of the bicycle in a flash.

After Lin Chen stopped the car, Tian Yezi was the first to run out.

"Xiulian, have you missed me?"

Good friends are extremely excited to see each other, and they immediately go up to each other, holding hands and exchanging greetings.

He Xiulian then introduced her roommate to Tian Yezi...

At this moment, Dai Yuling glanced at her owner and then pushed her bicycle forward.

"Xiulian, your friends are here, you guys have fun! I'm going to buy some things, let's split up."

"Hey, thank you, Sister Yuling!"

The mechanical girl left immediately, and Lin Chen waved to the two of them.

"Get in the car! Why are you chatting here?"

Tian Yezi just whispered to He Xiulian about something amazing: Lin Chen can tell what someone ate yesterday just by touching their hand.

This piqued He Xiulian's curiosity, but this was exactly what Tian Yezi did on purpose.

"Ye Zi, how did you know? Did he touch you?"

Tian Yezi didn't expect the other party to react so quickly, so she gave an awkward smile.

"No, I wasn't feeling well, so he took my pulse. That's how he found out. Don't make things up."

The two girls whispered as they got into the car, and Tian Yezi gave up the passenger seat.

"Brother Lin Chen, it's still early before lunch, why don't you show us around Beijing?"

He Xiulian was shocked that Tian Yezi was actually calling Lin Chen "Brother"! And she'd clearly said "touching his hand," but after asking, she'd changed it to "taking his pulse." It was obvious there was something she wasn't telling her…

"No rush, let me take you to get some trendy haircuts first. I know a hairdresser, a husband and wife, who are very skilled. Your clothes and hairstyles don't match, so let's go to the East District first."

No one expected that on He Xiulian's first trip to the city, Lin Chen would actually take her to Hu Delu's place to get her hair done...

Lin Chen, however, thought there was plenty of time in the day! He'd get a haircut first. He wasn't some hammer-wielding king who followed every trend.

The two little girls had no idea what Lin Chen was thinking; it seemed like getting a trendy haircut would be a good idea. New clothes, new hairstyle, right?

"Let's go, let's go. I finally get to come to the city. I'll get a haircut first. I don't know when I'll be able to come back again."

Lin Chen began praising Hu Delu's culinary skills to them...

He Xiulian then told them about Sun Shaoan and Li Xiangqian's time at the farm.

"Ye Zi, come home a little later this afternoon. That Li Xiangqian said he's going to the city to visit your second uncle, but he's probably only going there for you. Wait until he goes back to the farm before you go home; I don't believe he can wait that long. They have to gather and go back at three o'clock..."

Lin Chen mentally gave He Xiulian a thumbs up; this young girl was actually quite useful.

Tian Yezi no longer cares about Li Xiangqian or Sun Shaoan; she's just throwing herself into the Lin family like a moth to a flame. That one hand grabbing hers was practically an admission of her complete trust. Now, her only worry is what will happen to Qin Huairu.

"Oh, um... Lin Chen just said he's going to take us to see a movie! He'll probably be home late."

He Xiulian frowned immediately upon hearing about watching a movie, wondering how she would get back to the farm if it was too late. Wouldn't the movie have to go on until midnight?

"You guys go ahead and go see it! I'll go see it next time. I've already discussed the time to go back with Sister Yuling."

Lin Chen, who had been listening to the two of them chattering away, finally spoke up.

"Comrade He Xiulian, who told you that you can only watch movies at night? Cinemas in the city can show movies during the day, and today is Sunday, so it's even more lively."

He Xiulian had only ever seen outdoor movies, since those could only be shown at night. She had never actually been to a movie theater...

"Oh, I see. As long as it doesn't delay our return to the farm, it's fine!"

Lin Chen thought, what's so great about going back to the farm? Do you really want to stay on the farm for three to five years?

The farm was an important part of Lin Chen's early plan; ten years later, when strong winds blow, it would be a safe haven for many people.

"If I transfer you to work in the city, will you come? Comrade Tian Yezi will soon be a teacher at Hongxing Elementary School. If you also come to work in Beijing, the two of you will be able to see each other more often!"

While He Xiulian was still in shock, Tian Yezi had already agreed on her behalf.

It wasn't Tian Yezi's own initiative; He Xiulian had confided in her on the train. She really wanted to go to the city, but it was difficult to arrange. Now that Lin Chen had offered, what was there to hesitate about…

"Thank you, Brother Lin Chen. Xiulian has wanted to work in the city for a long time. If you arrange for her to come to Dongcheng District as well, I'll have someone to keep me company."

Tian Yezi then nudged He Xiulian again, saying, "What are you daydreaming about? Don't you want to go to the city?"

He Xiulian then realized, "Thinking about it, of course I'd like to go to the city to work. But... but I don't know anything! I can't teach children to read, so what can I do in the city, Secretary Lin?"

Lin Chen thought, "I'm in charge of the steel mill. Whatever I say you can do, you can do it." But the most important thing is to have a son and enjoy a wonderful life.

"Nothing is impossible for a willing heart. You can learn anything if you're willing... I believe I've made the right choice, and besides, I'm not just a doctor. I'm also a teacher..."
