277. The first day of the Lunar New Year
After Yuan Zi and Yuan Changming's two sisters finished talking, their faces were not very good, and they ignored each other, Yuan Changming took my frozen hand, and said, "Let's go." ”
I said, "It's all talked?" ”
Yuan Changming was just about to nod, but Yuan Zi on the side frowned and reminded: "Changming, no matter how you blame your father for this matter, there is one thing we can't deny, that is, you are his son, and whatever he does is for your good." Yuan Zi glanced at me and said, "You are still young now, and it is easy to be blinded by many things, but when you mature a little later, you will know how ridiculous you are now." ”
Although Yuan Zi's words did not refer to anyone, everyone could hear the meaning clearly.
Yuan Changming wanted to refute him, but I took his hand and whispered: "Changming." ”
Yuan Changming looked at me puzzled, I shook my head at him, and motioned for him to stop talking.
Yuan Changming looked at me for a long time, he could only say to Yuan Zi with a tense face: "I'm right, now I'm young, so I can distinguish between black and white, but you, the older people get, the more they can't tell the difference between good and evil in people, I said, you don't let me take care of your affairs, you don't care about my affairs, I won't go home for the Chinese New Year this year, unless the child takes it away." ”
Yuan Changming threw down this sentence, and then took my hand and walked forward, no longer bothering to pay attention to Yuan Zi.
After we got in the car, Yuan Changming found that I was carrying a few bags of melon seeds in my hand, and he realized a problem, he said, "What about the things we bought?" ”
I was still in a daze for what happened before, and when he asked this, I picked up the bag and said, "Not here......" I said this, stunned for a moment, and looked at the empty bag.
Yuan Changming looked at me puzzled, and I immediately laughed and said, "Oh, because some things are really unnecessary, and you are not there, I will definitely not be able to mention them alone, so I returned them all and took a few bags of melon seeds." ”
Yuan Changming had something in his heart, and he didn't ask anything, and after a sound, he looked out of the car and didn't speak again.
After the company finished the year-end inventory, it began to take a holiday, after the holiday, my busy life was over, all the work of the company was completely suspended, and Yuan Changming and I began to become extremely leisurely.
When I was about to arrive on the first day of the Lunar New Year, I asked Yuan Changming what he planned to do for the Chinese New Year this year.
Yuan Changming was cooking noodles in the kitchen at the time, and while cooking, he was holding a cucumber and chewing it very vigorously, and he said to me in the living room vaguely: "The two of us have passed." ”
I sat on the sofa and asked again: "Aren't you going back to Yuan's house for the New Year?" ”
Yuan Changming, who was holding a spatula in his hand, paused, he looked at me in the living room, and I also raised my face to look at him who was busy in the kitchen.
He smiled awkwardly at me and said, "No." ”
After that, he used a spoon to mix the soup with the juice.
I looked at his slightly unnatural back, didn't say anything, and continued to turn my head to watch TV.
On the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Yuan Changming and I were busy with the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner from four o'clock in the afternoon, although there were only the two of us and no relatives and friends, we still prepared the first meal of the new year decently.
At about seven o'clock in the evening, the city is already full of firecrackers, and when you look up from the window, you can see huge sparks blooming in the sky, and the usually solemn and cold buildings look warm and friendly in this cold night.
I stood there and looked at it for a while, and sighed inexplicably in my heart, thinking with some sigh, it has been another year, and things have changed so fast, as if in the blink of an eye, many things have disappeared from under my eyelids.
Yuan Changming, who was wearing home clothes, walked out of the kitchen, he was holding a plate of steamed vegetables in his hand, and when he saw me standing at the window and looking at the fireworks outside, he smiled and asked if we would like to go to set off firecrackers together after eating.
Instead of turning to look at him, I continued to look out the window and said, "Forget it, it's too cold outside." ”
Yuan Changming asked with some distress: "Do you see us living like this?" ”
I looked at his reflection in the window and smiled and asked, "How else would you like to live?" ”
Yuan Changming looked at a table of sumptuous dinners, and said with some frustration: "At least there should be some activities, this is too lonely." ”
As soon as he finished saying this, the mobile phone on the table rang, Yuan Changming took off the gloves on his hand and stretched out his hand to get the mobile phone, he saw the call reminder on the mobile phone screen, and his action was sluggish, he didn't answer, and when he wanted to press the hang up button, I turned around and looked at him, and saw that he looked at the mobile phone for a long time and didn't respond, and asked: "What's wrong?" ”
Yuan Changming raised his face to look at me, smiled and said, "Oh, it's nothing. ”
He turned off his mobile phone, and beckoned me to come over for dinner, I didn't continue to ask, I walked over and was about to eat with chopsticks, my mobile phone on the sofa also rang, and Yuan Changming and I glanced at each other.
I thought it was a matter at work, and after dropping the chopsticks, I said to Yuan Changming: "You wait for me, I'll answer the phone." ”
Yuan Changming didn't care, and used chopsticks to put some dishes into my bowl.
I took out the vibrating mobile phone from under the pillow cushion, looked down at the call reminder, the person who called on the screen was Yuan Zi, I glanced at Yuan Changming, thought about it, and finally pressed the answer button.
Before I could speak, Yuan Zi asked me on the phone if Changming was here, although I didn't know the purpose of her call, but I still replied: "Of course." ”
Yuan Zi said: "You let him answer the phone." ”
Although I am not very willing to listen to Yuan Zi's instructions, but now that she has called me, I can only say to Yuan Changming, who is eating: "Changming, your sister asked you to answer the phone." ”
Yuan Changming seemed to have expected it a long time ago, and directly dumped me: "Don't answer." ”
The party refused, and I could only say to Yuan Zi: "He won't answer." ”
Yuan Zi seemed to know that Yuan Changming would refuse, she was silent for a while, didn't say anything more, three seconds passed, and Yuan Zi on the other end of the phone said in a somewhat heavy tone: "You sue him, Dad is sick, if he doesn't come back, I won't force him." ”
After Yuan Zi said this, she hung up the phone.
There was a beeping sound from inside, and I didn't speak for the time being, but threw the phone back on the sofa and walked towards the dining table, Yuan Changming blindly lowered his head to eat.
I said, "Your dad is sick." ”
Yuan Changming's eating action stopped, and he looked at me with a stunned face.
I said, "Yuan Zi called me just now to convey it, I guess she called you before, just because she wanted me to tell you the news." ”
I saw that Yuan Changming did not react, and said: "Today is the Chinese New Year's Eve, if you think about it, if you want to go to Yuan's house or not, I will accompany you." ”
Our Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is naturally not finished, Yuan Jiangdong is Yuan Changming's father, no matter what kind of contradictions have occurred between the two sides, on such an important day, it seems that he does not go home to be unreasonable, and Yuan Jiangdong is still sick, he does not go back, let alone can not be justified
Yuan Changming finally decided to go back and have a look.
So we could only end this sumptuous Chinese New Year's Eve meal hastily and immediately rushed to Yuan's house, but when we arrived there, Yuan Jiangdong was not as sick as he imagined, but was in better spirits than usual, holding a wine glass and Shen Boteng on the opposite side to drink wine, Yuan Zi accompanied by him, from time to time to add wine to his father and husband.
The servant was holding a half-year-old child and coaxing there, and there was a person sitting next to Yuan Jiangdong, a person we never thought she would appear here, and this person was Shan Ying.
Yuan Changming and I stood there, stunned for a moment, unable to recover from the scene in front of us at all, if it weren't for the servant in the kitchen who came out with ball soup and saw me and Yuan Changming, the people in the living room wouldn't have known that Yuan Changming and I had arrived.
Everyone looked over, including Yuan Zi, who was pouring wine.
The originally lively and warm atmosphere instantly became extremely embarrassing.
Shen Boteng's hand holding the wine glass slowly loosened.
Yuan Changming and I were like two sudden intruders at this time.
Yuan Zi was the first to react, her face stagnated for a moment, but soon, she reacted, put down the wine decanter in her hand, quickly walked over and held Changming's hand, smiled very happily and said, "Changming, you are finally back." ”
Yuan Changming didn't react to Yuan Zi's joyful voice, but asked, "You lied to me." ”
Yuan Zi was stunned for a moment, she clenched Changming's arm and said, "This year's New Year, Changming, let's sit down and have a reunion dinner as a family." ”
Yuan Zi's words fell, and Shan Ying, who was sitting next to Yuan Jiangdong, suddenly stood up, and after she walked in front of Yuan Changming, she whispered: "Changming......"
Only then did we realize that her belly was much bigger and looked a lot bloated than it had been a few months ago.
Yuan Changming and I stood there stupidly, not knowing how to react, anyway, I couldn't figure out what the Yuan family was going to do.
Shan Ying saw that Yuan Changming didn't speak, so she bit her lip and didn't speak again, just stood aside with her hand holding her slightly convex lower abdomen, Yuan Changming's face was already extremely dark, he pulled me up, and wanted to leave without saying a word.
Yuan Zi grabbed him from behind again, and Yuan Changming, who had been deceived, shook Yuan Zi who was holding him fiercely, and yelled at Yuan Zi in an extremely high voice: "Go away!" ”
Yuan Changming has grown so big, he has never been coquettish in front of Yuan Zi's sister, when he was angry with her, and even made a move, Yuan Zi was thrown by Yuan Changming like this, and was pushed far away in an instant, she stumbled a little, and almost didn't stand on her heels, but fortunately, she was hugged by Shen Boteng from behind.
Shen Boteng was obviously displeased, and he said to Yuan Changming: "She is your sister." ”
Yuan Changming sneered at Shen Boteng's words: "If you don't have a sister, you will lie to your own brother." ”
He pulled me and wanted to leave, but Yuan Jiangdong, who was sitting at the dining table alone, suddenly slapped the table, and he said loudly: "Where are you going!" ”
Yuan Changming's footsteps paused, and I could only stop with him.
Yuan Jiangdong didn't expect Yuan Changming to come back, he didn't know what was going on, after he walked to our side, he asked me what was going on with Yuan Zi, and asked why Yuan Changming was here.
Yuan Zi told the truth at this time, she said to Yuan Jiangdong: "Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, I want Changming to come back to accompany you for the New Year, so I lied to him...... You're sick. ”
thought that Yuan Jiangdong would be moved by Yuan Zi's filial piety, but who knew that he said to Yuan Zi angrily: "Who asked you to draw snakes?!" ”
Yuan Zi was frightened by Yuan Jiangdong's roar like this, and his body was suddenly startled.
Yuan Jiangdong said again: "Even if I die, I won't let him step into the Yuan family half a step again today." ”
Yuan Changming naturally wouldn't be very happy when he heard this, he was reluctant to come today, and when he heard Yuan Jiangdong say this, he also replied coldly: "Okay, this home, I don't want to come back for a long time." He swept his eyes around Yuan Jiangdong and them, and said, "Today, your family will have a good meal and don't disturb them." ”
When I was about to follow Yuan Changming to leave, my hand was grabbed by Shan Ying, I stopped, and turned my head to look.
Shan Ying said to me: "Today's Chinese New Year, let's all sit down and have a meal together, okay?" ”
I was a little surprised, and gave Shan Ying a sentence: "What is your identity." ”
Shan Ying was a little embarrassed by my question, she understood very well that she was very embarrassed in the Yuan family at this time, and her hand holding me gradually loosened, and when she was about to completely put down my hand, Yuan Jiangdong snorted coldly on the side and said: "This sentence should be me to ask you, in what capacity are you coming here, don't tell me that it is in the identity of his wife, I said, I don't agree with this matter, you are not qualified." ”
