Meet·Lijiang

Back to Judian, it was already late.

Yang Hui and Zhuang Zijing took the old man, Yuan Jie, and the middle-aged man who was born in the army with the surname Rui who often stayed with the old man and found a hotel in Judian Town to stay.

After a tiring day, the old man and Yuan Jie, who were not in good health, were a little tired, so they went to bed early.

At dawn the next day, Yang Hui prepared breakfast and went to the hotel. Unexpectedly, the old man had already woken up and was doing Tai Chi slowly in the hotel dam by himself.

"Good morning, Grandpa, morning Uncle Rui." Zhuang Zijing greeted.

The old man didn't speak, and continued to practice Tai Chi. Lao Rui's knife-like face moved slightly, maybe it was a smile in return, but Yang Hui really didn't see it.

Zhuang Zijing and Yuan Jie slept in the same room. Yang Hui knocked on the door and entered, and the two of them were already awake.

"I want to come here early, but I'm afraid I'll disturb your sleep. But I think grandpa has always had the habit of getting up early, so I came here early in the morning." Yang Hui took the packed porridge box from a metal box like a toolbox Take it out of the box and put it on the table.The side dish was sauerkraut, but because I was afraid that the old man and Yuan Jie would not be used to it, I added mustard greens bought outside.

Just after Zhuang Zijing washed up, she jumped over cheerfully and smelled it: "I miss it so much."

Yuan Jie looked at her daughter and smiled: "You, it doesn't taste good at home, so I missed the food here."

Yang Hui couldn't help looking at Zhuang Zijing with affection: "You eat so well when you're at home, but here I have porridge with sauerkraut." After finishing speaking, she smiled embarrassedly at Yuan Jie: "I usually eat rice here. Eat simple, and my aunt will be wronged."

Yuan Jie quickly shook her head: "It's us who caused you trouble. A bowl of porridge in the morning is just right." After she finished speaking, she looked at Zhuang Zijing: "Zijing, go and see if your grandpa is done with activities, and bring him the food .”

Zhuang Zijing agreed to go out with the food box, leaving Yuan Jie and Yang Hui in the room.

"Come and sit down, talk to Auntie." Yuan Jie patted the edge of the bed beside her.

"Yeah." Yang Hui sat down with a food box: "The temperature here is low in the morning and evening, and there is no heating like in the north, and things get cold quickly. Auntie, you should eat first."

Yuan Jie smiled and agreed, and took two sips of porridge with chopsticks: "Your grandfather has a weird temper, but he is a good man, but sometimes he will admit death when he is old, and he may not be as talkative as a young man. But in the end, he It's not unreasonable, sometimes, you take more care."

Yang Hui shook his head again and again: "Auntie is worrying too much. Thanks to you for taking care of me these days in Beijing, grandpa also takes care of me very much, so I won't feel uncomfortable talking."

Yuan Jie smiled, didn't say anything, and drank a few mouthfuls of porridge: "This sauerkraut is really delicious, no wonder Zijing is always thinking about it."

Yang Hui smiled and said, "It's good if you like it. I'm really afraid that you are used to the refined life, and you won't get used to it here in Judian."

Yuan Jie shook her head, put down the food box, and then looked at Yang Hui gently: "Our family, Zijing, has suffered a lot in this life. I don't have anything else to ask for. Just treat her better and don't let her suffer any more."

Yang Hui's smile froze on his face, Yuan Jie's words seemed to mean something, and Yang Hui doubted his ears.

Yuan Jie smiled: "Although I am not in good health, I know all the big and small things that happen at home. You don't have to be so estranged with me. Zijing is a kind child. She is afraid of my poor health and irritating me. , dare not tell me anything, but I am in poor health, not bad eyesight. Her father and brother are both in the army, so her grandfather has the final say on family matters, and I basically don't care about anything. But Zijing is my biological daughter, and she has been separated for so many years, her matter is my top priority, of course I have to pay attention to it."

Yang Hui finally understood what Yuan Jie meant, and couldn't help getting excited. She tried to calm down, but her usually eloquent mouth became stupid now, and she only said one sentence at the end. : "I promise, it will be good for Zijing."

Yuan Jie nodded: "How can a woman be considered happy? Although I often lie in bed, since Zijing came back, I have been thinking about this question seriously. My mother-in-law married Zijing's grandfather, but because her grandfather is In the army, when I was young, the organization said that wherever I go, I have to go there, and I gather less and leave more. When my mother-in-law passed away, she was only 50 years old. Although she did not marry the wrong person in her life, she did not have a good life. I think This kind of life is not considered happiness. I married her father, and it is considered a very good marriage. He is motivated, has a good character, a good family background, a good career, and is good to me, but I am not in good health. Happiness. So I thought about it for a long time, and felt that the happiness of a woman is actually very simple. To use an old saying, it is to stay together in a healthy way. So I don’t care whether you have money or whether you have made great achievements, because we Although the family is not considered a wealthy family, there is no pressure to let Zijing live a carefree life. I have agreed with his father that his son is doing well in the army and does not need us to take care of him. It’s a little bit close, all our family property can be given to Zijing.”

Yang Hui listened carefully, and couldn't help being moved. Zijing's parents really loved her: "Zijing and I are not the kind of people with strong material desires. I talked with Zijing about this issue, and I don't want to be rich and powerful. , I just want a small fortune, so I will repair cars and do other things. Although I can't live a wealthy life, I can still live financially. Auntie, don't worry."

Yuan Jie smiled: "I know, you have been living with us during this period of time, I can see that you are a frugal child. Zijing is also a frugal child. So in fact, I am quite concerned about your body during this time , but I see that you are in good health, so I am quite satisfied with you, as long as you treat Zijing well and Zijing likes being with you, I have nothing to say."

"Thank you auntie."

Yuan Jie nodded with a smile, and stood up: "Zijing said that you are very busy repairing the car, why don't you go back early, and I will go there with Zijing later to have a look. business."

Yang Hui also quickly got up, and reached out to help Yuan Jie: "It's quite dirty and messy, but it's not interesting to stay in the hotel, you can go over and chat with the guests."

While the two were talking, Zhuang Zijing came back from the outside: "Grandpa finished Tai Chi and had dinner. He said let's go to the shop to play together."

"Exactly, Auntie also means the same." Yang Hui said while packing up the food box: "You haven't eaten yet, but it's almost cold, so go to the store to heat it up before eating."

Then a group of people set off from the hotel to the shop. Today was not a busy day, and the street was not very lively, but the sellers kept saying hello to Yang Hui along the way.

Back at the shop, someone had already come to repair the car.Yang Hui asked Zijing to eat porridge with her mother, then lit a brazier outside the shop, let the old man and Yuan Jie sit and enjoy the fire, and then she greeted the guests, asked about the situation, rolled up her sleeves and started repairing. car.Zhuang Zijing, on the other hand, was already very familiar with the cooperation, and was able to accurately return the tools to Yang.

Some waste engine oil was poured on the wooden strips removed from the motorcycle packing box, and the fire in the brazier quickly ignited.Yuan Jie's gaze swept across the long street, and then turned to the mountains surrounding the town. There seemed to be a lot of snow on the peaks in the distance, and a cloud floated leisurely on the mountainside: "Dad, look at this The place is really beautiful."

The old man followed Yuan Jie's gaze and looked at the mountain: "Hey, when I was young, there was no scenery in the north and south of the motherland, but now it's good, looking at the blue sky and white clouds is beautiful."

"This is a changing world." Yuan Jie said slowly: "Some things are getting worse, and some things are getting better. We have to keep adapting."

The old man looked at Yuan Jie: "If you like this place, you can stay here for a while. If the air is good, maybe your health will be better."

"I think the same way. Dad is old. It's good to stay in such a place for a long time. The blue sky and white clouds, surrounded by mountains, there is nothing to do, just chat with the two of you by the fire, and watch the children do things. I'm quite satisfied." Yuan Jie put her eyes on Yang Hui and Zhuang Zijing again, Yang Hui's hands were already covered with oil, and Zhuang Zijing's hands that were handing tools were also blackened.

The old man also looked this way, and in the end he didn't say anything, but just sighed.

"I know you have put a lot of thought into things about C University and the Yaxi Group. I didn't care about these things at first, but they are related to my daughter... You know, she has been everything to me these years." I am concerned about her, so I still care about her affairs."

The old man looked at his daughter-in-law in surprise.I didn't tell her about Yaxi and C, but now that she took the initiative to talk about it, it naturally shows that she doesn't know everything at home and doesn't care about anything: "She didn't agree."

Yuan Jie snorted and nodded, "That's good."

"Okay?" The old man raised his eyebrows, a little puzzled.

Yuan Jie smiled: "I don't want them to change. I think this is very good. I know you want Yang Hui to choose a better future, encounter more temptations, and then make another choice. It is a test of their love. But love itself should not be tested, love should be trusted. We should not be an obstacle for them, or a temptation to make them make another choice. Dad, you know why the probability of same-sex breakup Is it more likely to break up than the opposite sex?"

"Because homosexuality is inherently wrong." The old man said affirmatively.

Yuan Jie shook her head: "No, that's just because people of the same sex are under more pressure from the family and society. Breaking up is not necessarily out of the heart, but surrender to the pressure of the world, while the opposite sex is bound by morality, family, and law, and the opposite sex is allowed to marry. In the future, if the relationship is not harmonious, the impact of divorce should also be considered. But even so, the divorce rate is still high. So, Dad, I think your method is to put pressure on them and lead them to separate. You want to use this In my opinion, we should recognize them and let them live among us dignifiedly and be protected by us. I think the result should be longer. My daughter is also more likely to be happy forever. "

The old man's face turned black: "Why are you so confused?! Does Xingyi know about this?"

"I've called him two days ago."

"He thinks so too?"

"He thinks as you do, but I told him mine and he agreed."

"You are all crazy! Even if you spoil Zijing, can this kind of thing make her do as she pleases? Aren't you afraid that this is harming her?" The old man's voice was a little harsh.

Yuan Jie quickly smiled and said, "Dad, don't be angry. We all express our views on this matter. I think it's not up to me to make you accept Yang Hui, and Zijing can't make you accept her sincerely. Maybe she is the only one who can make you accept her. I stand from the perspective of Zijing’s mother, and I just hope that you will not be too prejudiced. I would like to ask you to look at Yang Hui from the perspective of an ordinary person, which may be more fair. "

"Of course I will be fair!"
