What are the Lian brothers doing in Beijing?

Chi Lidong remembered that Lian Ye was a lawyer and Xiao Lian was a scumbag. Neither of these two brothers seemed like Xia Yue's work partner.Especially Xiao Lian, a scumbag who was Xia Yue's former suitor.

What is this called?

Although this matter was on his mind, and it was indescribably uncomfortable, Chi Lidong still pulled himself together to play with his mother and Niannian for a day.

Madam Chi likes to take pictures when she goes out to play, especially in front of flowers. Whenever she sees big spring flowers, she must go and take ten or eight pictures.Niannian's small mouth is like a honey pot, "Grandma is so beautiful", "Grandma must be the most beautiful grandma in the world", and Mrs. Chi continued to criticize her as "simply stupid" because of her poor photography skills Chi Lidong can only feel ashamed of the cuteness inherent in the Xia family's genes.

At noon, I went to the Folk Village to eat grilled fish. The fish meat was delicious and the thorns were small. Chi Lidong carefully picked up the thorns from the fish and gave them to Niannian to eat.

Mrs. Chi chatted with a few aunts of the same age at the next table. The other party was a group of old classmates. Taking advantage of the spring, they made an appointment to come together for an outing. Seeing Mrs. Chi's three generations come to play together, they all expressed envy, saying that their children had to work Busy, or say that there is a generation gap with myself, and say that I want to go out to play, but I just give money or help sign up for a tour group, and rarely accompany me on the trip.Mrs. Chi took advantage of the opportunity to praise her son, as if she wasn't the one who wished to have a smart son again when she took the photo just now.Of course, the aunts also wanted to tease Nian Nian, asking how old the baby was, whether he had gone to school, etc., and Nian Nian answered generously.

An aunt asked: "Baby, where is your mother? Why didn't you come together?"

Chi Lidong became nervous, afraid that Niannian was used to calling him a mother, and it would be embarrassing if he really meant him as a mother.

Unexpectedly, Niannian replied seriously: "Mom has gone to the sky, and she is now a beautiful star."

A group of adults looked at each other, and the aunt who asked the question patted Niannian's head with some sympathy.

Niannian said: "But I will also become a star in the future, and then I will be with my mother forever."

When Chi Lidong was feeding him fish, he heard someone whispering to Mrs. Chi: "Such a small child, his language skills are so good, it would make me cry. Your family really knows how to teach the child."

Chi Lidong was about to cry.Xia Yue really knows how to teach children.

When I first met Niannian the winter before last, Niannian was also very sensible and well-behaved, and his language expression ability was already much better than that of children of the same age, but his personality traits were still very different from those now. Too daring to talk to strangers, often relying on coquetry to fight for what they want. It cannot be said that Professor Xia and his wife's educational philosophy is unscientific, but parent-child education between generations is always easier to spoil.Especially for the healthy growth of a little boy, the company and guidance of his father are very important.

In the evening, the sky was getting late, and the three of them came back from the return trip. When they got off the highway, Chi Lidong called Xia Yue and asked him, "Are you done?"

Xia Yue said: "It's almost there, where have you been? Let's eat roast duck tonight, I have reserved a seat. Tell auntie, I will bring two friends with me."

Chi Lidong: "...the Lian Ye brothers?"

Xia Yue: "You know? Did Xia Sinian say it?"

Chi Lidong didn't hear anything unusual in his tone, so he talked to his mother, who didn't care much when she heard that he was Xia Yue's friend.

Chi Lidong was a little bored, but still pretended to be generous, and said to Xia Yue: "It's okay with my mother. Say hello to Lian Ye for me, see you later."

"Hmm..." Xia Yue asked suddenly, "Does Li Tang have time at night? Ask him to come with you?"

Chi Lidong was puzzled: "Do you want to see him?"

Xia Yue: "Not really, it's just that there are more people and it's more lively."

Chi Lidong reluctantly said: "I have to ask him to find out."

He didn't ask at all, and after a while, while waiting for the red light, he sent a WeChat message to Xia Yue, saying that Li Tang couldn't go if he didn't have time.Xia Yue replied "then ask him out another day".

Chi Lidong thought depressedly, why did he ask Li Tang?Don't you always hate Li Tang?He doesn't want to see Li Tang and Xia Yue appearing in the same picture at all now, and he doesn't want to think of things that he shouldn't think of.

The road to the roast duck restaurant was very congested, stopping and going like a turtle.Nian Nian was hungry, so Chi Lidong brought him the snacks he prepared yesterday, and he only ate a little bit, saying that the daily snacks should not be exceeded...the self-control is not like that of a child of a few years old.

After wriggling with difficulty, they finally arrived at their destination. Xia Yue and the Lian family brothers had already arrived one step ahead, waiting for them while drinking tea.

Nian Nian and these two brothers are obviously very familiar, as soon as they met, they ran over enthusiastically and cheered, "I miss you so much", both brothers bent down and hugged him.

Lian Ye not only gave Niannian a gift of toys, but also brought a box of flower gum to Mrs. Chi as a meeting gift. In addition, his appearance and temperament are outstanding, and he can speak Mandarin very well. Mrs. Chi has a very good impression of him.Lian Ye's appearance has hardly changed, but Lian's younger brother has grown up a lot. The last time we met, he thought he was a thorny young man. He actually called someone very politely: "Brother Chi."

Big brother Chi had no choice but to be polite and pretend to care about little brother Lian: "Have you graduated? I remember you majored in accounting?"

Xiao Lian's Mandarin also improved a little, and he didn't sound so awkward, and said, "Not yet, I'm going to work as an intern in the office first."

After the formalities were over, Chi Lidong observed him silently. There was Lian Ye between him and Xia Yue. When Xia Yue spoke, he turned to look at Xia Yue. His eyes and expression were normal. Yue just had a wretched look with gleaming eyes - this wretchedness was also considered by Chi Lidong.

When ordering dishes, Mrs. Chi and Lian Ye almost met each other, and enthusiastically introduced the Beijing Roast Duck and other dishes of this restaurant. Lian Ye, who has studied in Beijing for several years, may not be ignorant, so he listened patiently to Chi. Madam gave him all kinds of introductions, and at the right time, there was an expression of "Ah, Beijing cuisine is so good" on her face, a hypocritical comparison-Chi Lidong's slander.

While they were ordering food, Xiao Lian was chatting with Nian Nian, Chi Lidong asked Xia Yue in a low voice, "Didn't you say to pick up your work partner?"

Xia Yue seemed to be very happy, looking at him with smiles in his eyes, and whispered: "My work partner has been sent back to the hotel, and he came with Lian Ye and the others."

Chi Lidong didn't really believe it, but he didn't dare to say it, he just said: "That's quite a coincidence."

Xia Yue's smile faded obviously, and he said, "I haven't met those two before. They are colleagues introduced by Lian Ye. They came to Beijing to discuss some cooperation with me. It happens that Lian Ye is on vacation, and he also wants to come to Beijing for a walk and meet the old man. Classmates, I happened to come with them."

Chi Lidong suddenly said: "So it's like this..."

Xia Yue said: "Otherwise, what do you think?"

Chi Lidong knew that Xia Yue was angry when he spoke like this, and he wanted to explain but felt guilty, desperately trying to please him, Xia Yue had already turned his face away to talk to Madam Chi, and didn't want to talk to him anymore.

He was frowning, a little wronged, but he also knew that he was not wronged, Xia Yue didn't want to hide the fact that Brother Lian Ye came to Beijing at all, it was because he had a small belly and a strong brain.

Lian Ye was so well-rounded that no one would give him cold attention. Seeing that Chi Lidong was silent, he took the initiative to talk to him, saying that he often saw news about Chi's time-honored brand in Hong Kong, and also mentioned something related to Cordyceps during the Spring Festival.Chi Lidong slowly felt that this person was quite interesting, his words were funny, his enthusiasm was not too high, and he felt a sense of comfort in the spring breeze when chatting.Then he thought that to be Xia Yue's friend, he had to be of such a standard, but his boyfriend was so boring and clumsy.

Lian Ye was talking, and mentioned the two people who came to Beijing with their brothers today: "We chatted on the plane, and we talked about understanding of Beijing, and they all mentioned your brand, which has become more and more influential in recent years. , Brother Chi is really amazing."

Xiao Lian said, "No wonder Xa-vier said that brother Chi is pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger."

Chi Lidong looked at Xia Yue in amazement, Xia Yue was eating the chopsticks used to pick up vegetables every year.

Lian Ye reprimanded, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Xiao Lian: "...you scold me again? Okay, okay, then just pretend I didn't say anything."
