On the day of the end of the exhibition, as soon as she left the exhibition hall, Xu Feiran received a call from Sister Rong, asking her to come over for dinner.

Xu Feiran didn't want to go, even if he was full of interest and excitement, his body was still tired and cramped, his legs were sore, and even his feet hurt.

Sister Rong was slightly melancholy on the phone: "Feiran, come and have a meal with my sister, we haven't gotten together since the New Year." And my sister wants to have some wine today. Come here. ”

Xu Feiran couldn't say anything when he refused: "Okay." But I'm going to be late, I just left the convention center, I'll be back now. ”

"Okay, I'll wait for you. Sister Rong's voice was very low.

Sister Rong's surname is Li, and her name is Li Rong. It is Xu Feiran's fellow countryman. The two met on the train home, and after chatting, the two actually lived in the same community.

Once they met, after returning to Ningcheng, the two often met in the community, Li Rong was very cheerful and generous, nine years older than Xu Feiran, and the standard post-80s. She warmly invited Xu Feiran to her house for dinner, and Xu Feiran also invited her to her house for dinner. came and went, the two were very familiar, and they had similar temperaments and personalities, and they became friends.

Xu Feiran has a two-bedroom apartment of about 80 square meters, located next to the largest kapok park in the city, which was bought by his parents in the second year of graduation and working in Ningcheng. The total amount of money will be less than two million.

The house location and the neighborhood are very good.

It's a great value to buy, and the total price is currently over 5 million.

When Xu Feiran arrived, it was already dark. When she opened the door, Li Rong was alone at home.

Li Rong's house is a duplex of more than 200 square meters. There are three people in her family, she, her husband, and her son.

Her husband works in a large construction company, and the year before last he had been promoted to chairman, and his work and business are very busy. My son is in junior high school and boarding. Auntie hired a part-time worker. Li Rong is home alone every day.

Li Rong is 1.65 meters tall, slightly chubby, with medium-long curly hair, and a gentle and kind face. She graduated from an art college and loves to draw every day.

Under the light inside the door, Li Rong, who was gentle and smiling every day, looked a little haggard. She bent down to take Xu Feiran's slippers.

Xu Feiran handed her a box of tea and some local specialties that he bought from the exhibition hall: "Sister Rong, try it for you." ”

Li Rong took it: "What exhibition have you gone to see?"

Xu Feiran changed his shoes and walked in with her: "Cultural Fair." It's all local specialty products, you try it. ”

Walking into the living room, on the large dining table, a large table of dishes, Xu Feiran was stunned: "Sister, what day is today?"

Li Rong smiled, her smile was very reluctant and tired: "There are no days, I have a whim, I want to eat and drink, so I called you." Wash your hands and eat. ”

Xu Feiran immediately went to wash her hands, she often came to Li Rong's house and was very familiar with Li Rong's house.

After washing his hands, Xu Feiran immediately took the initiative to serve the soup, one bowl for Li Rong and one bowl for himself.

Li Rong picked up a bottle of red wine that had already been opened and filled two goblets.

Xu Feiran was dumbfounded: "My sister, let's drink red wine as boiled water?"

Li Rong smiled: "It's okay, we haven't gotten together after the New Year, so it's okay if you don't get drunk today." To give. ”

Xu Feiran took it and touched Li Rong: "Then I wish my sister a healthy and beautiful new year, and everything goes well." ”

Li Rong sighed: "Okay, I also wish us a new year, find a handsome guy who is satisfied, and everything goes well." ”

After Li Rong finished speaking, she raised her head and drank half a cup.

Xu Feiran was dumbfounded, and asked cautiously: "Sister, do you want to tell me what's wrong today? You quarreled with your brother-in-law?"

Li Rong smiled: "It's not noisy." It's not better than arguing. The tone was very depressed and melancholy.

Xu Feiran looked at her seriously: "Tell me, I'll listen to see if you have nothing to do or if your brother-in-law did something wrong." ”

Li Rong smiled, she really likes Xu Feiran, although this girl is nearly ten years younger than her, she seems to be very aggressive, but her thinking is mature and very positive, many husbands and wives are awkward and inappropriate to talk to outsiders, she will complain to her when she can't help it.

"From the Chinese New Year to the present, he has not returned on time for a day. The night before yesterday, he said that he was sleeping on duty in the office, well, they did have his name on the internal duty schedule, and he also had a video with me at 12 o'clock in the evening, and he was indeed in the office, and he came back early yesterday morning, but he went out for entertainment in the evening, and he didn't return until 12 o'clock. Today is our wedding anniversary, I told him to come back for dinner early in the morning, and he agreed, and as a result, he told me that he had a party after work. Li Rong let out a long breath, angry, self-deprecating and lonely: "I'm sorry, what I gave you food wasn't originally prepared for you." ”

Xu Feiran happily took a chopstick dish: "I just need to have something delicious." Thank you, sister, for remembering me. ”

"Sister, did you tell your brother-in-law that today is your wedding anniversary?" Xu Feiran asked seriously.

Li Rong was stunned: "No." ”

Xu Feiran's expression was relaxed: "That's not the end." You didn't even say it, my brother-in-law must have been busy and forgotten. If you say it, he will definitely push it back. ”

Li Rong frowned: "But he's so late every day, I'm really depressed." ”

"Sister, we've discussed this issue. That's the norm in their construction industry. Moreover, my brother-in-law's position is so high, there are leaders to receive, and people from the downstream supply chain to deal with, and he does have a lot of entertainment. You've also looked at his phone, and you can only pick one every day to deal with. ”

Li Rong frowned and sighed, very depressed.

"Sister, I still say the same thing, if you can't change your brother-in-law's work state, you just don't bother yourself. You just have to keep him from playing around and not cheating. ”

"He's out every day, what can I do?" Li Rong's quiet tone revealed deep unease.

Xu Feiran sighed secretly, this question is indeed more and more depressed the more I think about it.

The job position and work habits determine that he is such a person who socializes every day, and if he really wants to change, he must either change his job or completely change his work style. But neither of these seems to be possible. The job he has reached a high position, and it is impossible to change. Work style and habits, not to mention whether he can change, just when he can change, but a sudden change of way will definitely attract everyone's attention, and even the work is turbulent, the leader will feel whether he has a problem, and the subordinates will wonder if he has an opinion.

Xu Feiran shook his wine glass and suppressed the sigh in his heart: "Sister, you better look away." Try to live your own life and let your brother-in-law be attached to the family. Don't quarrel with him, but make it clear that you want him to socialize less. ”

Li Rong listened to Xu Feiran's words and sighed faintly, she knew that Feiran would still persuade her like this. That's why she dared to confide in her.

She doesn't want to talk to her husband, but she needs someone to confide in, and she needs someone to persuade herself more firmly.

As a woman who is almost forty, she and her friends around her will face family and relationship problems to a greater or lesser extent.

Li Rong drank all the wine in the cup, and tonight's wine made her can't help but not want to be suppressed in the slightest: "Does a woman have to be so compromised at this age?"
