Self-cultivation with a plate of tomato scrambled eggs

Song Xiaowu went back to Yao's house with a lot of anxiety in his heart. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Mr. Yao sitting in the living room and Yao Jian standing in front of him.

Song Xiaowu stepped forward and called out: "Father..." The father and son both turned their heads when they heard the sound, but their expressions were different: Yao Jian frowned, while the old man couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry.

Song Xiaowu had a bad premonition, who wanted to secretly feel anxious for a long time, but finally heard the old man say in a deep voice: "It's too late today, you should go up and rest first."

"Ah?" Song Xiaowu was confused, and turned to look at Yao Jian, but Yao Jian also turned a blind eye to the obvious questioning signal in his eyes: "Go, we will talk about everything tomorrow."

Song Xiaowu had no choice but to go upstairs as promised.

After absent-mindedly taking a shower, lying on the bed as soon as he took out his phone, he saw a text message from Li Tianqi: "Don't come back too late, it's not safe."

Song Xiaowu turned over and covered himself with a quilt, and secretly beat Li Tianqi.

"Hello?" Li Tianqi's voice was very clear, and there was no sound of sleepiness.Song Xiaowu said casually, "Are you still asleep?"

"I'm going to sleep right away," Li Tianqi said, "Is nothing wrong?"

"I don't know." Song Xiaowu was a little depressed, "I feel that the matter is not small, but my father and brother didn't tell me, so let me go to bed early and talk about it tomorrow."

Li Tianqi was silent for a moment, and said: "Just know that your father is in good health, don't think too much about it. Since we have to talk about it tomorrow, it's too early to start worrying now."

Song Xiaowu smiled: "This is quite my style."

Li Tianqi couldn't help laughing, and said warmly: "Okay, go to sleep."

After hanging up the phone, Li Tianqi began to think about it: it was not to inform him of what had happened, so there was only another explanation.

Song Xiaowu didn't sleep very well all night, and he woke up shortly after dawn the next day. He still remembered that if it had been planned for Yuan Ke's father today, he didn't know if there was a temporary change. .

After getting up and washing, and changing clothes, Song Xiaowu vaguely heard the old man talking in the study—the word "speaking" is not appropriate, the sound insulation of each room is not bad, so you can still hear the sound, if the old man is moving atmosphere.

Song Xiaowu hurriedly put on his clothes, opened the door and rushed to the study room, when he got to the door, he heard the old man say: "I ask myself that I have never treated you badly, what is yours, it will be yours sooner or later, what does Xiao Wu have, huh? It depends on you to take care of it, why are you in a hurry? What are you planning?"

"Father..." Song Xiaowu knocked on the door symbolically, interrupted the conversation, stepped in, and saw Yao Jian standing in front of the old man across the desk, his eyes downcast, his face was calm, and nothing could be seen.

"In the end...what happened?" Song Xiaowu hesitated for a moment, but he still took the initiative to ask.

The old man didn't say anything, he just glanced at Yao Jian, Yao Jian just said, "You were photographed in the car yesterday and posted on the Internet."

Song Xiaowu was taken aback for a moment, and then he realized it, but he still didn't understand: he and Li Tianqi are not celebrities, why are they photographed?After thinking about it again in my heart, I asked uncertainly, "Then... will it have a big impact on Dad?"

At this time, the old man seemed to be less angry, and asked Song Xiaowu, "When did your elder brother know about the matter between you and that man?" Song Xiaowu was a little surprised that the old man paid attention to this point, and his mind was full of thoughts. Turn around, and hurriedly said: "Not much time..."

The old man laughed angrily: "You still cover it up for him, is this how the brotherhood is reflected?"

"But it's none of the elder brother's business." The intention was to defend Yao Jian, but after the words were spoken, Song Xiaowu gradually figured it out: "I choose what kind of person I want to be with. They're brothers, so it's not appropriate to meddle in each other's decisions..."

The old man didn't give him a chance to make a long speech: "Okay, okay, do you really think I can't bear to settle accounts with you? Fortunately, I found out early this time, and only some ordinary netizens reposted those two photos. This old face is going to explain to your Uncle Yuan?"

"No..." Song Xiaowu still wanted to speak, but was stopped by Yao Jian: "Go down and have breakfast, Dad will be leaving later."

After the meal, the two brothers sent the old man out, Yao Jian answered a few more work calls, went back to his room to process documents for a while, and came out again after ten o'clock.

Song Xiaowu had already changed his clothes again, because the people he wanted to meet were the Yuan family's father and daughter, and Yao Jianjian didn't let Song Xiaowu's hair be messed with anymore. The restaurant drove away.

Only now did Song Xiaowu have the opportunity to find out the news from his brother. Yao Jian didn't want to play around with him, and took out his mobile phone, took out a screenshot and threw it to him: "Look for yourself."

It was a Weibo, and the original text was deleted long ago: "I met a super loving couple on the road, honest and open. I like it and I like it." There are two photos, one is Song Xiaowu receiving a drink from Li Tianqi, One is that he is having a good chat with the girl in the front row, and Li Tianqi is sitting next to him with no expression, but his eyes seem to be on him. There is no inappropriate intimacy in the two photos, but the two The atmosphere between them can't fool anyone, even if Song Xiaowu sees it for himself, he can't justly open his eyes and tell nonsense, saying that these two are very upright and pure good friends and buddies.

It's just, "Why is she like this?" From the shooting angle of the photo and the blogger's profile picture, Song Xiaowu has basically confirmed that the girl who took the photo is the short-haired girl he met in the car. It seems that the social atmosphere in China is more tolerant of homosexuality, but in fact it still somewhat treats it as a novelty gimmick. After all, they are still heretics.Even if he scolded the girl like a flower, it wouldn't change anything.

Seeing his dejected look, Yao Jian said, "The matter is settled this time, so you don't have to worry too much about it. But even though Dad doesn't talk much about you, you should be careful with your words and deeds, behave well, and don't mess with him again angry."

Song Xiaowu was silent for a while, and said: "Brother, why don't I take this opportunity and tell my dad all about it."

Only then did Yao Jian look at him: "What do you mean?"

"Originally, I planned to take the subtle route," Song Xiaowu said, "I didn't expect such an accident. My father's health has been good for such a long time, and San Gao has been well controlled, so I just decided to deal with him." Take it easy."

"Why?" Yao Jian asked back, "Are you going to tell Dad that you plan to live with that Li for a long time?"

Song Xiaowu was a little frightened by his tone. Ever since he recognized this elder brother, Yao Jian had always given him the impression that he was easy-going and calm. This was probably the first time he was so excited, right?Song Xiaowu's expression was still a little silly, and he continued after a while: "I'm not the kind of person who just plays around outside..."

"You put away this plan as soon as possible." Yao Jian didn't look at him again, holding the steering wheel and looking straight ahead again: "I won't persuade you too much, go back and think about it yourself."

After being taught such a lesson by Yao Jian, even his elder brother, Song Xiaowu was a little unhappy.He originally planned to apologize to Yao Jian for being angered by the old man for no reason, but now it would be flattering to bring it up again, so he had no choice but to give up.The two of them had nothing to say all the way, even though the two of them were usually not very friendly when they got along, after all, Yao Jian was completely reticent compared to his chatterbox, but such an embarrassing scene is really rare, and Song Xiaowu couldn't help but feel a little bit on pins and needles the meaning of.

Fortunately, the location of the restaurant is not very far.The two entered the gate one after the other. The manager of the lobby led a team of waiters wearing antique double collars to treat each other attentively. Soon Yuan Ke and his daughter also arrived, and they exchanged polite greetings again. Although Song Xiaowu was not in a high mood, Even Yuan Ke was a little weary. After all, the four of them knew the etiquette, and after a practical banquet, it was still suitable for the host and guest.

A few days later, the old man's former subordinates brought their families to visit one after another, many of them came to Beijing from Southwest, Shengjing and other places, and Mrs. Yao also came back, Song Xiaowu even tucked his tail , honestly listened to the old man's orders to entertain the guests, and never dared to take the initiative to show off. As for the matter between himself and Li Tianqi, he couldn't mention a word, and could only hold back for a while.

But after going back and forth, Song Xiaowu saw some ways: All these uncles and uncles raised daughters at home, and looking at the attitudes of Mrs. Yao and other female relatives, Song Xiaowu couldn't help laughing secretly. Being forced into a pair by the two families, it's the turn of the big brother to taste it now.Just looking at the reactions of the father and son, the younger one is absent-minded, the older one's attitude is unclear, how do you say that word: the road is obstructed and long.

Song Xiaowu, who was immersed in the joy of "I'm really a cultural person", sneaked back to the room, took out his mobile phone and called his brother Tianqi.

In front of Li Tianqi were the candied melon seeds and a pack of hard-shelled Zhonghua.He raised his head and asked Xiao Fu who was sitting opposite him: "Are you really going back?"

Xiao Fu didn't answer, but turned his head, took Aunt Yang's hand which was smoothing out the broken hair behind her ear, held it in his hand, raised his head and smiled at her.Aunt Yang's eye circles were still red, but she couldn't say anything to dissuade her.

"You are only 19 years old." Li Tianqi looked at her.Of course, he also knows that in many rural areas, it is not uncommon to set up wine and treat guests first, and when the children are born and the legal age of marriage is reached, it is not uncommon to obtain a certificate and apply for a household registration together. They can see how firm his attitude is.

But this time, I heard that my mother fell off the pear tree when she was harvesting pears. Xiao Fu took leave of absence to go back to take care of them. After only a few days, when she came back, she told them that she was getting married.

Li Tianqi actually guessed that many things happened here should not be asked by outsiders, but this girl was sitting in front of him, haggard and desperate, trying to pretend to be calm - it was impossible for him not to have any regrets.

Xiao Fu was still smiling, and her slightly swollen eyelids made the corners of her eyes droop a bit: "This year, the pears at home are not for sale. I sent a basket to Sister Yan, and the other basket is placed behind the kitchen. Brother Li Let's try it with my aunt, it's very sweet, and Brother Xiao Song will definitely like it when he comes back."

Li Tianqi didn't speak anymore, when the phone rang, he got up and walked outside the store, answered the phone, and came back after a while.

"You take this," Li Tianqi handed an envelope to Xiaofu, "this month's salary."

Xiao Fu looked at the envelope that was obviously too thick, but didn't reach out.

Li Tianqi put the envelope directly in front of her, and then sat down: "I won't give the gift money, you keep the money well, if it is useful one day, there will be no way out."

With a sore nose, Xiao Fu quickly turned his head, looked around the store carefully, and said, "I haven't come to work for the past few days, you and your aunt have worked hard."

After adjusting her mood, she saw that the clock on the wall had pointed to [-]:[-], and she would miss the train if she didn't leave, so she grabbed the strap of her luggage and stood up, saying, "I'm leaving."

"I send you."

She stopped the car shortly after she went out, and the traffic along the way was not too congested. However, Xiao Fu was sitting in the back seat, looking at Li Tianqi in the passenger seat and the bustling scenes on both sides of the road. I can't live the life I want, and I can't wait for the person I like.

Carrying very little luggage and a lot of money from Li Tianqi, she stood in front of the train station, and was about to leave the world of flamboyance she had come to in a daze.Aunt Yang hugged her all the time, telling her repeatedly: "Ni'er, you are well, well...Auntie will come back to see you during the Chinese New Year, you have to be well..."

Xiao Fu's eyes were watery, but she couldn't shed any tears. When she was in her hometown, she had already dried up her tears.She just turned around and hugged Aunt Yang, a little greedy for the smell of her body, which was mixed but warm, with the persistence of being diligent and thrifty in managing the house but not passing by.Then she put down her luggage, straightened her hair, and walked up to Li Tianqi with a smile: "Brother Tianqi, let me give you a hug."

Li Tianqi didn't speak, he lowered his head and wrapped her in his arms, Xiao Fu slowly hugged his waist, leaned his head on his chest, closed his eyes, and smiled at the corners of his mouth: enough, she already had enough thoughts .

She backed away again and heard Li Tianqi say: "Take care." She nodded: "Goodbye."

This is her most insipid farewell, and her greatest extravagance.
