Yan Yong came to Beijing for a meeting, and said that he would come home for dinner on the weekend, and Yan Li was happily busy. [Ran^Text^Library] []

God knows what kind of meeting the chief of a provincial public security corps will come to Beijing for a meeting, and even if a meeting is held, it should not be the business of the chief captain, so it is not his turn to come forward as a technical cadre in charge of business. Presumably he came to investigate some case, he didn't say that Yan Li would never ask. Years of study and work in the Youth League Committee have made Yan Li less enthusiastic about right and wrong, and less curious, only caring about Qi Tianxiang and the children, and feeling that the rest has nothing to do with her.

In Yan Li's mind, this only brother is the dearest, close to even more than his parents. When I was a child, my parents were busy with work, even if they were not busy, it was rare to see them, or get their care, not to mention Cheng Huan's knees, spoiled or something, my father was orthodox to the point of not smiling, and he also brought his work style when he returned home. Therefore, most of the time, she is with her brother, who is six years older than her, going to and from school together, watching movies and hanging out together. Even when her brothers were fighting, she was watching from the side, happy and clapping when she won the battle, and helped them pack their schoolbags and bandage their wounds when she lost, just like a little nurse in the field, but the most commonly heard title was "with a fart", at first she was very disgusted with such a title, always staring at her eyes and pouting her mouth to refute. After a long time, I got used to it, and I recognized this title, and even thought it was beautiful with a fart.

When I was a child, it was like this, and when I grew up, girls had their own playmates, and gradually stopped following their brothers, although their bodies did not follow, but their hearts always followed their brothers. Some things are willing to be said to my brother, and only when I get my brother's affirmation or encouragement can I have the possibility of doing or not doing it. It's psychological dependence, and this dependence feels proud, proud.

And my brother has always been like a mother to Yan Li, which is very inconsistent with Yan Yong's rough personality and appearance, and even some mothers-in-law. What clothes to wear when I was a child, how to write homework, and what to call adults when I see them, Yan Yong took the trouble to tell Yan Li one by one. When he was older, how to get along with his classmates, how to resolve contradictions, and even how to read a small note when he received it, whether to hand it over to the teacher or not, Yan Yong was duty-bound to take on these responsibilities. He felt that his sister needed his protection, he was a man, he was his sister's protector.

This kind of interdependence ended after my brother joined the army, although there were still correspondence, but after all, it decreased a lot, especially after my brother came back from the army and became a policeman, it gradually decreased a lot, and after Yan Li went to college, it was much less. But as long as he returned home, as long as it was a major problem, he still told his brother as it was for the first time, and the relationship with Qi Tianxiang was also determined after asking his brother's opinion.

And Qi Tianxiang was also influenced by Yan Li, and he was also full of respect and trust for his eldest brother, which not only had Yan Li's relationship, but more importantly, he felt that Yan Yong was upright, resolute, and had a heroic spirit, which was very admirable.

Yan Yong also likes Qi Tianxiang very much, in the early days when the relationship with his sister was determined, he was indeed worried about what this kid wanted to do with his sister, and he would not cherish his sister, but after a long time, he gradually discovered Qi Tianxiang's valuable temperament, that is, sincerity, truthfulness, and sincerity, despite the pedantry and righteousness of some scholars, and some high feelings, but after all, he is still a very ideal husband. Especially when he saw his care for Yan Li, and even accommodating, he felt that he didn't look away. Even sometimes watching Yan Li deliberately bully Qi Tianxiang in anger, he also kept beating his sister.

According to Yan Li's meaning, it is easier to go out to eat, save worry and trouble, after all, it is my brother who comes, and I don't usually come often. Yan Yong excused himself for being inconvenient, but he still ate at home. From this, I also know that he has something to do this time. It will no longer be forced.

In the past, when Yan Yong came to Beijing, or passed by, most of them ate at home, and there were many times when he went outside, but they were all due to tight time, or there were many people coming, and it was inconvenient at home.

Anyway, it's not the first time my brother has come to the house for dinner, so it's easy to pass the time. He basically has no say in terms of eating, as long as it is cooked raw and served on the table, it is fine, as long as the big fish and meat are served, plus a large bowl of soju, everything is done.

Although it is simple, on Friday afternoon, Yan Li did nothing and was busy in the kitchen. She wants to be as careful as possible, although she also knows that she has the ability to fool others, and her brother must not be fooled when he comes to eat, both psychologically and formally.

I bought a Yellow River carp, braised carp Yan Yong loves to eat it very much, and the other is cooked pig's trotters, Yan Li originally wanted to buy pork ribs, saying that it was to make sweet and sour pork ribs, but later gave up. Although pork ribs are his son Xiaoliang's favorite, his brother is already fifty years old, too much sugar can still be avoided, he is going to make a braised pork, which he learned from TV, plus his own pondering, it must be delicious.

After the busy work was over, it was time for the lights to come on, and Yan Yong also came in a hurry.

Yan Yong gives people the feeling that he is always in such a hurry, and he is full of anger, perhaps because of his height, Yan Yong is a big man of more than 1.8 meters, a burly figure, always neat, walking and talking in a big tone, with a beard on his square face in the shape of a national character, as if he is always unshaved, coupled with the majesty revealed in his big eyes, it always gives people a feeling that is difficult to get close to.

But seeing is not necessarily believing, but there is a weak heart hidden under the majesty on the surface.

"Big brother is here, waiting for you," Yan Li opened the door and said to Yan Yong with a smile, casually about to take Yan Yong's coat off, but Yan Yong waved his hand and refused. Yan Lixiang no longer insisted, watched Yan Yong hang up his clothes, change his slippers, and walk to the living room, and then asked, "Are you alone?" ”

"They eat in the cafeteria", Yan Yong leaned back on the sofa, stretched his waist and said, "There are a lot of things, so don't toss back and forth." Xiaoliang, this stinky boy, I still miss him if I haven't seen him for a few days. ”

"School is busy, and now I'm so busy that my legs don't touch the ground." Yan Li smiled complainingly and said, "I wanted to call in the afternoon, but I didn't call for fear that it would be inconvenient." Thinking that you must be indispensable to your brothers, so I did a lot", Yan Li said regretfully, "But it's okay, I'll eat tomorrow." ”

"It's okay to do more, get a few dishes to take home after eating in a while, and let them add some supper at night." Yan Yong smiled slightly apologetically and said, "These stinky boys, they are indispensable every time there is a good thing." ”

"It's not too early, so let's eat!" Yan Li wasted no time in proposing.

Yan Yong raised his wrist and glanced at the time, "Are you so busy just starting school?" ”

"I've called a long time ago, and more than once, and the answer is the same right away, right away, it's all right away." Yan Li said dissatisfiedly: "I said not to let my uncle wait for you, see how he will have a face when he comes back later." ”

"If there is a face, you will see it later, as soon as he comes back, he will call his uncle, at most he will say I really miss you, everything will be fine. Don't believe it! Yan Yong took Yan Li's words and said with a smile: "Today's children have no concept of time, their time is only valid for themselves, and it is ineffective for others. That is to say, only to restrain others, not to oneself. In the past, we said that the post-80s generation was a ruined generation, they grew up in doting, and the society and family gave them too much love, because they were the first generation of only children in China, and they were accustomed to the Chinese family with many children and many blessings, and they were also accustomed to the free-range education method, and set the rules to let the children grow up on their own, realize themselves, wrestle on their own, and heal themselves. Suddenly free-range breeding has become captivity, there is a little at a loss, in the past put down the food to let them eat by themselves, now they are fed and eaten, and for fear that they will not eat well, but also change tricks to give them a dose, three days and two ends of the change, their appetite is eaten bad. Not only eat, but also spare no effort in education, just one child, no one wants their children to achieve nothing, let alone careless. Isn't there such a saying? Don't let your child lose at the starting line. This is pure flickering, where is the starting line? Who's firing the regent? What's more, the road of life is just a sprint for decades? A sprint is successful, you are famous, and you can lie down and eat your old book? Is there such a simple thing to learn and succeed? Life is a long-distance race, not only than speed, but also more than endurance and willpower, just like a small tree, whether it grows well or not, and the care in the short term has a certain effect. Moreover, China will not need so many pianists, performers, calligraphers, and painters in the future, but will need laborers and creators who are useful to this society. If you ask the parents who are now enrolling their children in piano classes, calligraphy and painting classes, no parent will tell you that letting children sacrifice all their spare time, or even parents borrowing money to buy pianos and musical instruments by lighting lamps and boiling oil, is just to cultivate children's artistic literacy, just to make children versatile. Do you believe that? Can you get it? Yan Yong helped Yan Li serve food from the kitchen to the restaurant, and said: "Also, we have never tried it in captivity, we have no experience, no textbooks, and even ready-made things, how to communicate with children, how to let children communicate with society, dare not let go, afraid of letting go or have no regret medicine if the experiment fails, so we dare not let children grow and mature, and dare not let go of letting them do what they want to do." Over time, the child himself does not know what he wants to do and what he will do. ”

"Yes! have developed bean sprouts in the greenhouse, which look very beautiful, but they are weak, and the result of doting is that the child has developed the word coquettishness, can't endure hardship, can't stand grievances, and can't withstand setbacks. Yan Li slowly placed the plates, looked at what her brother was looking for, smiled, bent down and took out an ashtray from under the sofa and handed it to Yan Yong, and said sincerely: "Middle school students can't peel eggs or tie buttons, does this sound like a joke?" Alas, there really is. There is a girl in our school, who can't wash underwear and underwear, she packs and sends it home for her mother to wash, and then sends it back after washing. ”

"And today's children are still extremely irresponsible, they are still strong and reasonable, and their self-esteem is used for quibbles." Yan Yong took the ashtray handed over by Yan Li, smiled apologetically, took out a cigarette and took out a light on it, took a long puff and said: "There are such children in our agency, I asked them to help with the whole article, there are a few obvious typos in it, I saw it when I gave it to them, and they will change it when I think it will be easy to sort it out, but when I hand it back, which few typos still exist." I asked the child in charge, don't you see these typos? However, he told me eloquently that typos are not necessary to organize articles, and that we are sorting out case files, not correcting typos. I almost didn't cry when I heard it, I wanted to kick them a few times, the graduates of the police officer university, they actually treated their jobs like this, and they still had words, is there any hope for such a child? Therefore, I have said to Xiaobei more than once, Dad doesn't want you to get ahead, doesn't want you to be rich, where you can go is your own strength and luck, but I hope you can be an upright person, a righteous child, learn to understand, understand the responsibility, and do this, a good and healthy attitude is necessary, in addition to punctuality, honesty, prudence, pragmatism, and the rest is not required to do anything else. ”

"Don't ask her to do anything? After doing this, our Beibei has become a perfect person", Yan Li said with a smile: "Your Xiaobei is okay, she has worked after graduation, and she is more sensible, so you can try it as your baby nephew?"

Yan Yong looked at Yan Li and didn't answer, and waited for her to walk to the table and sit down before saying: "What's good, freedom is on my lips every day, I am in charge of my youth, I control my freedom, and I am so annoying to say it!" Teenage children, as soon as they say that personal quality is this set, what youth is like the rhythm of spring, the youth of early spring, the splendor of mid-spring, the glory of late spring, he is still between early spring and mid-spring, is enjoying the beauty and sweetness of spring, the free body is extremely precious, no one has the right to take it away. Hehe, no way. ”

Seeing Yan Yong shaking his head, Yan Li couldn't help but smile and said to Yan Yong: "There are times when an iron-fisted man like the eldest brother is helpless, it seems that it is common for doctors to be unable to cure their family's diseases", as he spoke, he opened the wine bottle, poured it into the cup, and said: "In fact, you can tell her that freedom is not about doing what you want, a freedom without a sense of rules and legal constraints is anarchy, and sooner or later it will be chaotic, and real freedom is not infringed upon under the protection of laws and social rules, and you can not do what you don't want to do. The premise is that the law guarantees and upholds the law, and respects the right to life. It's not a simple sense of doing whatever you want. ”

Yan Yong picked up the cup and touched it with Yan Li, "It's still you cultural people who are energetic to talk about, and you can talk to her for me when you have time." I'm a soldier and a showman, I can't tell the truth, or a tofu fell into the ash heap, and I can't blow it or hit it. ”

Yan Li sandwiched a piece of fish for her brother and said, "I can say it, but I may not be able to say it to Xiaobei, I still have a chance to let Tianxiang say it." His words are so good, these children still listen to him, except for our Xiaoliang. Today's young people don't know where they come from with strange ideas and theories, and they talk about them one after another. He can't even say his baby son, the child doesn't like to listen to it when he talks too much, and the simple thing to say is to stare at the eyes, the two of them are like underground parties, fighting wits and courage every day. ”

"Don't say it, Xiaobei still admires her uncle, who is knowledgeable, responsible, and is this", Yan Yong raised his thumb as he spoke, and suddenly remembered something, "You should also consider going back to Hehai, Xiaoliang is also in college, and it is completely okay to live on campus, a boy, you can let go, Tianxiang also needs to be taken care of, plus the old man and the old lady are also old, I am also not at home every day, and I really need you." ”

"I also think about it this way, I want to wait for Tianxiang to stabilize and then pass." Yan Li sandwiched the dishes for Yan Yong and put them on his plate, "Tianxiang also means the same, but brother, you should also find someone to take care of your life, you can't be so single, it's almost fifty." ”

"Say more, say more." Yan Yong coped with a smile, picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

In this way, you and I chatted and talked, and I don't know how long it took, a voice sounded in the hall, and Xiao Liang came back, bringing in a cool breeze and some anger.

"You're coming back, you're embarrassed," Yan Li reproached her son dissatisfiedly, "Uncle is leaving." ”

"Busy, busy." Xiao Liang said with a hippie smile, walked up and put his arms around Yan Yong's shoulders exaggeratedly, affectionately expressing friendship. The exaggerated movements make the atmosphere relaxed again.

"How's it going, are you busy with school?" Yan Yong stretched out his hand and patted Xiaoliang's back gently, "Wash your hands, come and eat, and have a few drinks with your uncle, if you come back a little later, your uncle will be drunk." ”

Xiao Liang obediently put down his schoolbag, took off his clothes, and washed his hands, his movements were quick and fast, revealing the neatness of a soldier. Sitting on the chair next to his uncle, he asked slowly, "Who can drink you too much?" Who? My mother? The two mothers plus Lao Qi are not opponents. Besides, if your nephew doesn't come back and doesn't toast you, are you embarrassed to drink too much? ”

The words made everyone laugh and made the atmosphere cheerful. Also, the person at this table can make Yan Yong drink too much, and it is Xiao Liang. When he was a child, he sat in his uncle's arms, watched his uncle drink, and found that his uncle liked to drink the contents of the cup, so he kept serving his uncle a cup, and his uncle did not refuse to come, and soon drank high. This also shows the fate of the two of them.

"Uncle, I salute you" Xiao Liang picked up Yan Yong's wine glass and respectfully brought it to his uncle. In Xiaoliang's mind, his uncle is a big hero who can't do anything, and he admires this police uncle from the bottom of his heart.

"What, or a drink instead?" Yan Yong took the wine glass in Xiao Liang's hand and said teasingly: "You only children, put down the milk bottle and pick up the drink bottle, when will you be able to grow up like a man!" ”

"People are still students", Xiao Liang didn't care about his uncle's teasing, picked up the drink and touched it with his uncle, and took a sip by himself. "In the final analysis, soju culture is a reflection of the decadent way of life, in the face of the pressure of life or survival, I don't think about how to change and change, but I use alcohol to anesthetize and drown my sorrows, and the result not only does not solve any problems, but anesthetizes myself, anesthetizes life, and is so confused that I don't know what the end is." After speaking, he quickly felt that it was inappropriate, and immediately said to Yan Yong with a smiling face: "Uncle, I don't mean you, you are relaxing and relieving fatigue." ”

"This is what I mean by my cautionary words", Yan Li, who has been looking at Xiaoliang and Yan Yong with a smile, said: "Wine culture, as the attachment of traditional culture, is by no means the anesthetic of the decadent people you say, your understanding of wine culture is not only extreme, one-sided, even ignorant and narrow-minded, wine as a part of social life, plays a very important role, celebrating the success of wine, helping the atmosphere; The oath has wine, and the color is strong; There is wine in the sacrifice to comfort the gods of heaven and earth; As for weddings, ushering in and sending off, and friends getting together, they are all inseparable from wine, which has gone beyond the scope of food, but as a token, a kind of sustenance, rich in the meaning of courtesy, righteousness and affection, so there is a feeling of "persuading the gentleman to have a glass of wine, and there is no reason for the west out of Yangguan", and there is a grievance of "three glasses and two residual wines, how can it be defeated by the wind in the evening", which can be replaced by other media. Yan Li continued: "It's not that you won't be allowed to say it, but you should understand how to say it, when to say it, and what result you want to achieve after saying it, this is the science of speaking." ”

"Okay, my daughter-in-law of Professor Qi, didn't I just say a few words? You just said such a big set, I'm afraid it hasn't been developed yet, is there still Liu Ling's 'drunk deep I boast of myself, who is the god in the drink', Li Bai's 'The Son of Heaven can't get on the boat, my generation is originally a Penghao person', or Cao Cao's 'Lao Ji is in the bush, and his ambition is thousands of miles. How to solve the worries, only Huang Kang'ah! You are really close to Zhu and red and black to ink, and with Professor Qi, your eloquence has improved so fast. ”

Faced with Xiao Liang's retort, Yan Li really couldn't refute for a while, so she had to glare at him fiercely and said, "Let's read more books." ”

"Okay, okay, you two can have a seminar together, and you can't let people eat." Yan Yong played the round, but his eyes were overflowing with happiness and pride. He really envied his sister, living in such a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, having such an excellent and intelligent son, and a talented husband, he was really happy, and he only hoped that such days would be like this every day in the future.

That night, Yan Yong didn't drink much, but he felt very happy and happy
