Leaving the past behind 2019

The gifts left by Li Shuonan that are not considered gifts are actually old things that Li Henan left behind in the mansion. I don’t know if he forgot or didn’t have a chance to take them. It should be that I didn't have time to take it away, and when I had the opportunity to take it, I was already in the wrong.

A few years ago, Li Shuonan was a little afraid of this brother, because every time his brother came home, he would end up in trouble and break up.

The most serious one was when my elder brother first became a doctor. Doctors are such a noble profession. Li Shuonan didn't understand why his father was so angry, and wasn't he the one who sent his elder brother to study medicine?

"Are you deaf and can't even hear human words?!"

It was the first time for Li Shuonan to see his father so furious, and he couldn't choose what to say.

He actually pointed at his brother's sore spot.

At that time, the father and son stood one on the stairs and the other on the bottom of the stairs, about four or five steps apart. The father pointed a finger at Li Henan condescendingly: "What did I say before sending you abroad? Do you like medicine?" , you can learn, we are making medical equipment, but after learning what to do, you have to have a clear plan—”

Li Henan looked up at his father, without retreating at all: "My plan is to become a doctor."

My elder brother always wears a nice turtleneck, with a straight back and unruly hair. He holds the column cap of the staircase with one hand, and only the bulging veins on the back of his hand show his emotions.

The elder brother was very angry, but he was still trying his best to endure it.

The huge crystal chandelier reflects thousands of points of light. It seems to be rushed by the anger between father and son.

The young Li Shuonan hid in the gap between the stairs on the second floor. He was terrified. He always felt that the next second his father would rush down and continue to yell at his elder brother, or his elder brother would rush up to fight his father. He didn't understand why his elder brother He didn't want to follow his father's wishes and return to China to directly take over the family's business. He didn't understand what's wrong with being a doctor, and why his father was so angry.

"I don't want to go to work in the company, I just... have my own ideals that I want to realize."

Li Henan still tried to reason with his father, but was immediately interrupted: "What ideals can you have? Don't think that you are so great now that your wings are stiff. Everything you have now is earned by me. I don't care. No matter how messed up you were before, it doesn't matter if you don't get married or move out to live alone, but you have to take care of the company's affairs!"

I don't know which key word in this passage touched Li Henan's nerves, his forbearance broke, he snorted coldly, and said with a smile: "Why don't I know that I have suddenly become so important?"

"What do you mean?" Father was also confused by his sudden frivolous tone.

"Before you let me go because you thought I was useless, and now you suddenly intervene in my work because some of your partners have withdrawn from the business, right? You found yourself suddenly under attack, remembering me? I guess , I’ve been useful for the past few years, right?” Speaking of which, his gaze suddenly pointed to Li Shuonan, “When I help you straighten out the company, I’ll be free again, right? He’s your The carefully cultivated heir, I... because of that accident, I am no longer perfect. The years when you gave me freedom were nothing more than because you had given up on me, but now I suddenly found that I can still use it, so I will use it again. Are you starting to take care of me?"

Li Shuonan was stared at by him, his whole body was frozen, brother, what does this mean?Is it because of this reason that he has always disliked me?

"You..." my father gasped, "You bastard! What did you say? You think that we give you up because you go to school outside? Then your tuition fees, food and drink, medical treatment, including implant surgery are not worth it. Does it cost money?!"

Li Henan quickly answered: "That's just an investment for you."

"you--"

"Brother! It's not like this—" Li Shuonan shouted, they often use you as an example, your room has been kept intact, including the awards on the wall, and——but the rest of the words did not come out of your mouth It was covered.

The mother's whisper sounded from the ear: "Don't mix it!"

"Brother misunderstood Dad, it's not like that... um..." He was still trying to explain with his mouth covered.

"You just need to take care of yourself. Don't meddle in the affairs of his father and son!" His mother covered his mouth and dragged him into the room. Li Shuonan was frightened. Why did you drag him away? Will the elder brother fight with the father?

The door was slammed shut, and the soundproofing in the room was very good, I couldn't hear any movement in the stairwell.

The mother's eyes were red, "White-eyed wolf, don't learn well! How much effort we have put in for him! If you don't obey what you say, you won't obey him. If you want to go abroad, study medicine, or treat your ears, we will rely on him. Who knows that he--" said Now, she shut up abruptly, as if her mother had just realized that Li Shuonan was in front of her, she covered her hair heavily in a concealed way: "Xiao Nan, don't imitate him, you can't become like that, Dad's company is still waiting for you Wake up—"

"Why does brother think that way?" Li Shuonan asked.

"He..." The mother looked at him and hesitated to speak.

"I can't imitate him, but you have always asked me to imitate him." Li Shuonan continued, and this sentence made his mother excited again.

"But he's turned bad! Do you want to learn how he turned bad?!"

"But……"

His mother interrupted him again: "No but! We are your parents, will we still harm you? Xiao Nan, your first task now is to study hard, and you don't care about other things, okay?"

Li Shuonan still wants to say something, but he is not stupid. He knows that now is not the time to get to the bottom of it. His mother was uncharacteristically furious, and his father hurt people by stabbing his feet. The conflict between them and his brother will not be sorted out in a short while.

He lowered his eyes: "Oh."

He doesn't think his brother is "bad", he just wants to do the job he yearns for.

That was the last time my brother broke up with his family. It didn’t take long for him to figure it out. He came back and took over his father’s company. The room doesn't drink and talk like ordinary families, but at least it can be quiet and peaceful.

Li Shuonan didn't know what happened to his elder brother, which made him give up his career as a doctor, which he insisted on even if he turned against his family. He thought, maybe his parents didn't know, and his elder brother never dissected anything with them, only with him. They talk about work, but they probably don't care, all they want is a partner who executes according to plan.

………………

Li Henan is too lazy to play treasure hunting games with his younger brother. The next day he will go to the exhibition to watch first, and then go home for dinner in the afternoon. There was still food and water left inside, so I went out lightly.

It was nearly four o'clock in the afternoon when I came out of the exhibition. I originally wanted to stop the car to buy some fruit when I passed the commercial street, but I gave up after thinking about it.

There is nothing lacking in the house, and he knows his mother. Buying popular goods will be looked down upon, and carefully selected expensive gifts will be considered with ulterior motives.

"I haven't seen anyone for ten days and a half months. You really treat yourself as a guest, don't you? When you come back for a meal, you deliberately bring gifts. Are you slapping me as a mother?"

Look, he can even imagine his mother's expression and tone.

Simply empty-handed, just go there, and you won't do wrong things if you don't do too much.

The car passed through eighteen small bends in a winding path, and finally saw the lights not far away. This is a villa area hidden on the edge of the city. No matter what time of day it is, it is as quiet as if you have seen a ghost.

Parents just like this kind of fantasy, the older they are, the more exaggerated they are. I remember that when I was in school, they could still live in a row of apartment buildings with their neighbors. Although the location of the building was remote enough, it was very difficult for me to go to school It’s inconvenient. After taking the bus and the subway, he has to take a “motorbike” at the end. In the windy and rainy weather, he has to go out an hour earlier than usual to ensure that he won’t be late, but he never complained, because It was he himself who refused to ride on his father's ride.

Living under the same roof with them is already suffocating, even if you have to travel, even if you need to squeeze in the hustle and bustle of all kinds of people, it is better than sitting in a car with your father.

Thinking of Guan Chaolan, where he lives, he couldn’t help laughing. Although he tried his best to get rid of it, some preferences had been ingrained in his blood. He also didn’t like crowded places, and he was even worse than his parents. He doesn't like the color, but he fell in love with a lively person.

The car finally stopped outside the gate. The automatic sensing device flashed and opened the gate. He drove in slowly, and there were still a few detours to go before his own villa. He slowed down the speed of the car to the minimum and began to call Li Jiageng. mobile phone.

"Big-headed son~little-headed father~a pair of good friends~happy father and son~"

Unknowingly, I listened to the whole nursery rhyme without waiting for the other party to answer the phone. Although I did sleep late yesterday, it’s not like I haven’t woken up yet. It’s almost evening. This guy is probably nestled in a pile of takeaway boxes and playing on the computer In the game, the mobile phone was lost in some corner. Thinking of that scene, Li Henan felt a little sweet while being annoyed.

The familiar yet unfamiliar gate is approaching, Li Henan just parked the car, Li Shuonan jumped out excitedly: "Brother! I'll help you park!"

"No driver's license, no need to talk."

"No one saw this..." Although he was not convinced, the boy went to open the door of the garage obediently.

After parking the car, Li Shuonan came over again with an expression of asking for credit: "Hey brother, do you like the gift I left you?"

Li Henan didn't react: "What?"

Li Shuonan was surprised: "Didn't you find it yesterday? You even called me."

"Oh, you said that." Li Henan patted his younger brother on the shoulder: "Let's go in first and talk about it. It's not good to delay at the door for too long."

On the steps in front of the door, he found time to send Li Jiageng another WeChat message, to the effect that he told him that he was fine and that he didn’t need to deliberately call back. After thinking about it, he sent another message: But sending WeChat messages is still possible.

Looking at the two WeChat messages with almost no time difference, I laughed secretly that I would have such a mother-in-law day.

Everything is still the same, the mother is arranging a pot of flower arrangements in the dining room, she nodded lightly when she saw them come in, the father was answering the phone on the balcony, waving the other hand subconsciously, everything on the table was ready, and the dishes were arranged The dishes are exquisite, but the dishes are not as satisfactory. His parents pay attention to nature and health preservation, so there is no stir-fried or spicy food on the dining table at his house. Li Henan originally agreed with this kind of food point of view, but since he and After getting along with Li Kageng, his taste was also "distorted", especially after last night's birthday "big meal", looking at the things on the table, he didn't have much appetite even for delicacies from mountains and seas.

But it doesn't matter, anyway, he didn't come here for the taste. Since he "bowed his head", he kept coming to eat once every other week, just to maintain the harmony on the surface. Aunt Li presented the last soup Finally, the family of four finally sat down together. Each person had an expensive goblet beside their plate. In the glass was a light orange liquid. Of course, it couldn't be real wine, not even a drink. It was specially ordered by the mother. Only the father can drink the herbal tea made by Aunt Li in the family, but at most he can only drink a cup. Without a drinking partner, it is not interesting for him to drink it alone, and the taste is fine.

The four glasses symbolically collided in the air to celebrate his birthday.

During the dinner, my mother occasionally asked a few questions about the company, as long as she asked, Li Henan would answer, otherwise he would never take the initiative to mention it.

Li Henan didn't want to stay in this cold and dull home for even a minute.

After finally getting through the meal time, Li Shuonan immediately invited Li Henan to help him read the competition questions, and winked at him from a position where his mother could not see.

Li Henan understood: "Competition questions? I haven't touched that kind of thing for many years, so I may not be able to help you."

My mother couldn't stand him mentioning knowledge in such a contemptuous tone, and immediately said: "Xiao Nan is your own brother, can you help him find out what's wrong?"

Heh, the two sons are both "Nan", and the name "Xiao Nan" is really embarrassing.

But Li Henan didn't care, since he decided to deviate from the right track, he was already prepared not to be accepted by his family.

Li Henan pursed his lips, and reluctantly walked towards the stairs, Li Shuonan followed behind him with his head down, when he reached the blind corner downstairs where no one could see, Li Henan subconsciously glanced at the innermost door on the second floor.

"Brother, if you want to go and have a look, go, the room is always cleaned." Li Shuonan whispered.

"I didn't want to go."

Li Shuonan grabbed his cuff from behind: "Brother, I know you're still angry with them, I have no position to say anything, but they still respect you with everything you have."

"..."

At the end of the quarrel, his father yelled at him and threatened to throw out all the "trash" in his house before he slammed the door out.

The father and son had a very tense fight because of work. Even though they "reconciled" later, Li Henan neither came up nor asked. On his side, he had already tacitly agreed that his room had been "destroyed".

My mother is such a resolute person, she never leaves garbage in the house, useless, superfluous, everything that affects the normal life of the family is the decay on the teeth, and should be removed and filled as soon as possible, he is the moth of this family , the reason why he can maintain peace on the surface is only because he is still useful now, and he has also learned to restrain himself.

Is it really just this room that he cherishes?

No, it's the old days buried inside. Those drawers stuffed with old test papers and notebooks, and the Rubik's Cube that someone gave up after playing twice were all treasured by him. It's not just a room, it's It was the sour candies that he tasted repeatedly in the bottom of his heart, the tossing and turning sleepless nights that he couldn't see clearly, and the scenery outside the window that he had stared at in a daze for a long time.

Even though the old things are still there, the people and things are different.

He already has a new scenery, the night is no longer difficult to sleep, the candy is no longer sour, and his life has been infused with more novel, strange and wonderful flavors with endless aftertaste.

"No need, I'm really fine. I just glanced over there habitually just now." Li Henan turned around and patted the back of his brother's hand reassuringly, "I also want to apologize for what I said at that time. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, didn't you scare me at the time?"

"Brother," Li Shuonan pursed his lips tightly. He didn't know how to express his love for his brother. Maybe his family is not good at this. "Come on, come and see!" He rushed to the end of the corridor and pushed Open that door.

"Alas." Li Henan smiled helplessly, and could only stroll over.

The author has something to say:

Sorry for the long wait, my child and I both fell ill with a fever this week, so we will resume updating, thank you for waiting.
