"Makoto, Dad is home, Mom is back, let you come over for dinner. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" Jiang Tingting's voice revealed excitement that could not be concealed.

"It's so good, just invite to dinner so soon, will there be another show?" I deliberately teased her.

After last night's intimate contact, Tingting's originally sweet voice was full of warmth and warmth, and the title became simple, which was a lot of temptation to me.

It wasn't long ago that I had just spent a good night with her, no—not even half of it.

After more than four years of acquaintance, our relationship has finally taken a giant leap.

"I hate it, don't think about it, Dad is mainly to thank Lawyer Feng, you are just a foil." Tingting was a little anxious to defend, but she was just shy, and she sounded too good.

"Okay, I'll be there." With such a good thing, I naturally have no reason not to participate.

I no longer teased her shyly, my heart was filled with joy, these hard work was finally not in vain, and Uncle Jiang was innocent.

The change is really fast, Aunt Wu will follow immediately, and it will be fine.

Not long after going home, Jiang Tingting called again, and heard that I was at home with my mother, so she said after a long time: "That-, Lawyer Feng didn't agree, and went back to the provincial capital after the case." Mom said that she hadn't been able to cook by herself for a long time, so let you come home for a light meal and not go to the restaurant, okay? ”

I happily agreed, "What's the difference, isn't it better to eat at home?" Everyone is also casual. ”

After this upheaval, the girl who used to be very assertive suddenly changed. It's not a good sign, I hope she's still so confident, has a surname, and has that indomitable energy.

My mother listened to my phone call silently, and waited for me to hang up before asking, "Xiaocheng, is Director Jiang really okay?" ”

"yes, acquittal."

"Good people have good rewards." The old mother clapped her hands, "Well, yes, I have seen that girl from Director Jiang's family, she is beautiful and educated." Son, you've been busy with this these days, I can't imagine that my son has two more moments. What the hell is going on, tell my mother. ”

My mother is too good at contacting, but what is valuable is that she guessed very accurately, and she saw that my relationship with Tingting was not ordinary.

Some things are really hard to say for a while, and I can't help but look up to the sky and sigh: "No matter how secret my son's behavior is, it is impossible to escape my mother's boundless mana, amazing, powerful." ”

I was really unconvinced, I only listened to some words intermittently, and I actually guessed the matter. Although these people are hardly home, everything they do escapes the grasp of the old man.

"Stinky boy, don't come with me. If you marry a few daughters-in-law for me, my mother doesn't care, she just hugs her grandson when she comes back. Mom is not an outsider, can't she know some news in advance? You don't know yet, Mom is not a person who talks nonsense. A small joke attracted a lot of criticism from the elderly.

Mom, what a god! You can't hide anything! It's rare to be so open-minded.

The final self-praise is difficult to make his son believe. Mom is indeed not a person who talks nonsense, and she will never take the microphone to the square to talk casually. But when the neighbors know it, it will definitely not take half an hour.

"Good old mother," I said coquettishly with her, "of course you won't talk nonsense, your son has inherited your excellent bloodline, and of course you won't talk nonsense." I can't hide this matter, and when I buy an evening newspaper, I will see that it will be all clear, and I will know more detailed and vivid than my son. ”

Men also need to indulge occasionally, not to mention me, but my dad sometimes drinks too much and deliberately makes trouble.

"Stinky boy, I'll ask you what you're doing when you buy a newspaper." My mother didn't "understand", but a popcorn came to my head, "I know that I run outside every day, and I won't be safe when I go home, so I will punish you for not going out tonight." ”

It's not that she can't say it, but she's afraid of arousing her curiosity, so she won't be able to reveal any flaws. I also know that my mother is just a joke, how can she really trap me in the house.

After a lot of commotion, I managed to get out of the house. Just because she is too tolerant, no matter how powerful she is, she can't fight her children.

The door of the Jiang family was wide open, and it was more energetic than when Tingting was alone, but it was still plain and a little deserted.

Uncle Jiang successfully returned home without guilt, no more than when he was in office, he traveled to other places and returned from inspections, and those relatives and old friends generally did not bother at this time.

I already knew the way, so I walked inside. Listening to the voice, Aunt Wu was in the kitchen with Tingting, and the former director was holding a cup and drinking tea alone in the spacious living room, and her figure was extremely lonely.

Even when one person is there, he sits upright like that, and his posture is meticulous.

The impression of majesty in the past remained in my heart, and I restrained it for no reason, and the situation when I was training in the barracks suddenly appeared, and I called out very abruptly: "Hello Director Jiang." ”

"Sit down, Yicheng. What's the name of the director, it's all my own family, just call me uncle. He got up affectionately and pulled me to sit down, picked up the cup next to him and poured water, "I've been waiting for you for a long time, listening to Tingting, these things are thanks to the help of your classmates and friends." ”

"Uncle Jiang said this too politely, this is all as it should be."

Uncle Jiang smiled and said, "Drink tea, drink tea." How about school, don't delay your homework? Young people's studies are the most important thing. Also, Tingting said that you have been busy with something else, don't affect the big things of young people. ”

He knew it very clearly, and it seemed that Tingting had mentioned it in front of him a lot.

Uncle Jiang smiled and talked to me about family life, and asked about my parents' health and work, and never said what happened to me.

People who have seen the world are different, and some things are embarrassing to say, and such a traceless effort is worth learning.

But understanding is a matter of time, and doing it is different. I still couldn't hold my breath: "Uncle Jiang, this time I returned your innocence, and my work will not be affected, right?" ”

Uncle Jiang's eyes fell elsewhere, and he said casually: "I don't want anything else, as long as I can come back safely, the family is together, more important than anything else." ”

As if what he was about to say had nothing to do with him, from the side, his eyes lacked the sharpness and passion that I had known before, and his expression seemed detached.

He didn't look at me, I didn't know whether he was talking about his experience or teaching me: "After some things, I realized that compared to money, status is insignificant, as long as the family is safe and harmonious, it is better than anything else." You're still young, and you'll understand it later. ”

Is that really the case? He once had the opportunity to go further, and now he is so content with mediocrity?

I looked directly into the depths of Uncle Jiang's heart, and his words were a little untrue. The ups and downs of the sea and the smooth career of his official career were originally high-spirited, but because he suddenly experienced such a blow, he suddenly became disheartened.

I also saw that he was indeed kind-hearted when he said this, and I hoped that I would take him as a warning to take fewer detours and live happily and happily. She even said that she hoped that I could be happy with her daughter for the rest of my life.

But people have left a name, geese have left a voice, and who is willing to be unknown for a lifetime. A lot of things are done knowing that they can't be done.

I thought of another question, Uncle Jiang is fine, what will happen to Brother Ren Zhihao? What about the black hand hidden behind the scenes?

At this time, Tingting suddenly ran out of it, and she didn't look at it, but only received a look at the door. I laughed in my heart, she was probably waiting for me in a hurry.

"Tingting, what are you looking for?" Uncle Jiang suddenly asked, a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Nothing." Tingting replied in disappointment, turned around, and found the person sitting next to Uncle Jiang.

"Honest ...... Ah, Yu Yicheng, you are here, why don't you squeak, scare people. There was a hint of resentment in his tone.

She probably realized that she was almost exposed, and reached out to cover her small mouth, and took the opportunity to hide the excitement on her face.

A little caution has become the object of talking, is it my fault for not keeping quiet? I can't help but want to ask myself.

Tingting didn't wait for me to answer, and quickly ran inside: "Mom, he's here." ”

Although her steps are brisk, they always feel that they are not particularly convenient, and her steps look a little awkward. Hey, it's my masterpiece.

Seeing his daughter leave quickly, Uncle Jiang shook his head with a smile: "Tingting has also grown up, hey my daughter has grown up, and we are also old." ”

His smile is not difficult to see, hiding a hint of "girl extroversion" in it.

After a while, Aunt Wu came out and wiped her hands with an apron: "Yicheng is here, if you don't come to my house, Tingting will be in a hurry to go to the room." Sit here with your uncle for a while, and the meal will be good for a while. ”

She smiled gently, waited for me to say hello, didn't say much, looked at her husband meaningfully, and walked inside.

I really don't fit in with the appearance of this standard housewife, and my impression of her is basically when she accompanied Aunt Wang to apply for a loan, shrewd and capable, and looks much younger than her actual age.

At this time, he looked extremely haggard, but in comparison, Uncle Jiang's face looked much better. In the same situation, the pressure on the female surname is greater.

Although it has always been said that women are more adaptable than men when encountering things, the changes in appearance in the early stage are more obvious.

After a while, when the meal came up, Tingting seemed the most active, giving this dish for a while, and then chattering about a joke.

Uncle Jiang opened a bottle of treasured wine, and Tingting found a small cup to pour for the three of us, but she only poured juice.

The accident hit the two couples very hard, although they were forced to laugh, but it was difficult to hide the loss in their hearts, at the beginning they were mainly bored and drunk, and Aunt Wu occasionally spoke out quite philosophically, more like she was giving us two young thoughts lessons.

I was affected a little bit, and I didn't talk much when I didn't ask. The amount of alcohol is not large, and anyway, at home, I don't drink much.

Uncle Jiang is still quite restrained in drinking, basically accompanying me, occasionally interjecting and following his wife to sigh a few words.

Aunt Wu's small glass of less than one or two is basically a dry cup of wine, and she doesn't push it off. After a few cups, the ruddy flush on his face came up, and people gradually became excited.

She was apparently a heavy drinker, and almost half of the first bottle went into her stomach. But his eyes became brighter, but he spoke more obviously.

"Tingting, bring another bottle of your father's good wine, Mom has to relax today.

Knowing that her parents were in a bad mood, Tingting was very obedient and did not persuade her, so she obediently ran to get a bottle of wine and came back.

Uncle Jiang couldn't look past it and persuaded him: "Old Wu, drink less, don't let the children see jokes if you have more." ”

"It's okay, you don't know how much I drink?" Aunt Wu replied disapprerovingly, "I don't remember that time, I drank more than a pound by myself, and in the end, I had to rely on me to help you come back." ”

Tingting obviously heard of this kind of allusion for the first time, and looked at her mother with wide eyes.

"Well, I'm embarrassed to tell the kids about this kind of mess." Uncle Jiang reluctantly persuaded his wife, although he did not say it explicitly, he obviously admitted that she could drink better than himself.

"I'm really fine, well, the dishes are cold, I'll go cook some soup again, you drink first." In order to show that she was fine, Aunt Wu stood up and walked to the kitchen, but her steps couldn't help but be a little shaky.

"Mom, I'll be with you." Tingting obviously saw that her mother was a little uncomfortable, so she hurriedly followed, no matter how Aunt Wu shirked it.

I took this opportunity to spit out the question in my heart: "Uncle Jiang, I've been worried. Now that you are safe and sound, will there be a problem with Brother Ren? ”

"You mean that Ren Zhihao?" Uncle Jiang raised his eyebrows, obviously still angry, "That kid, how can he have a problem, didn't you arrange everything?" ”

"What?" I'm puzzled.

"Xiaoyu, what are you pretending to be with me, my uncle really underestimated you before."

I still don't understand, does this have anything to do with me?

"Come, drink this, and I'll tell you." After he finished speaking, he filled the glass with wine, and drank it himself in one gulp.

I had no choice but to drink it with me, the alcohol was quite high, and I was choked and coughed for a while.

Uncle Jiang smiled: "It seems that you can do anything, you still have to practice this wine." ”

He set up a dragon gate array: Coincidentally, the two guys who were effortlessly taken down by me and Ren Zhihao in the hotel last night are fugitives from Tongji, who have committed many crimes all over the country, and have suffered many casualties.

This Liu Da runs a mine, and he inevitably has a bit of a surname of the underworld, and spends money to hire people to commit murder, but unfortunately he found these two boys.

Captain Hu of the criminal police team was the first to be notified and arrived at the first time, and only he and Ren Zhihao were present.

Going back and forth, these two people became heroes who bravely captured fugitives, and there was nothing to do with me in the report.

Uncle Jiang carefully analyzed the stakes and disadvantages, in short, things were a blessing or a curse for Ren Zhihao.

Among them, the gossip is a little difficult for me to remember, and Uncle Jiang is old and sophisticated, so it is naturally not difficult to analyze.

What surprised me was not this, but that Uncle Jiang was in prison and couldn't seem to communicate with the outside world, but he knew so much.

"It seems that Ren Zhihao will definitely be able to be saved, but he will be sent to a more remote place. It's Xiaohu's luck, maybe this time his wish to mention the deputy bureau will come true. Uncle Jiang sighed, "Speaking of which, they are all luckier than me." ”

"Uncle Jiang, it's not too difficult for you to return to your original position." I comforted him with my imagination.

Uncle Jiang shook his head: "In my position, I definitely don't have a chance, and when I encounter such a thing, I can only come down obediently." It's a good thing to be able to arrange a unit with nothing to do and spend the rest of your life in peace and stability. ”

He looked at me with a smile: "My hope is in Tingting, and I will depend on you in the future." ”

I could not help but blush a little when I heard what he said. Fortunately, I drank too much alcohol, and I shouldn't be able to see it on the surface.

Uncle Jiang patted me on the shoulder, showing great affection: "You little guy, Tingting said that you have inquired a lot, how did you think of looking for Xiaohu?" ”

The listener was interested, and he seemed to be very wary of Deputy Director Wang. And in such a short period of time, Tingting reported a lot of things to her father.

"Tingting said that only Uncle Hu has never been here since you left home. I think the more people who avoid suspicion, the more likely they are to help from the shadows. ”

Uncle Jiang patted me hard again, and didn't continue: "Come, for your words, let's have a drink." ”

The more he talked, the more affectionate I became, and the more I drank, not long after the two of them left, their heartbeats were dozens of times faster.

Tingting came out with a big pot of soup: "Dad, don't let him drink it, he always likes to look foreign when he drinks too much." ”

Aunt Wu washed her face and came out, and heard her daughter's words: "That's right, Lao Jiang, look at how you mix, your daughter only cares about others, regardless of our old couple." ”

"Mom-what are you talking about?" Tingting stomped her feet without disagreeing.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about it." Aunt Wu was obedient, but she had to add, "Hey, I can't talk about it." ”

After Aunt Wu came back, she continued to drink, because she had drunk a lot with Uncle Jiang just now, and it was not easy to control herself.

Finally finished eating, Tingting and I were busy cleaning up, Uncle Jiang opened the yawn, and was pushed into the house by Aunt Wu.

"Xiaoyu, you've drunk a lot, just get together one night here, and go back tomorrow, Tingting and I haven't been together for a long time, the two of you have to talk well."

It was difficult to resist the hospitality, and I did walk a little shaky, so I had to agree. Aunt Wu drank the most, but she seemed to be in good spirits, and personally opened the bed in the guest room for me, and she planned to share the bed with Tingting.

Jiang Tingting just silently watched her mother clean up, gritted her teeth and said nothing, during which the two of us looked at each other, remembering that the two of them slept together last night, although she didn't drink, her face was red like a fever. didn't wait for Aunt Wu to leave, but she left first.

"Come, Auntie will sit with you for a while." Aunt Wu cleaned up, but she sat on the bed first and patted the empty space around her.

I sat down beside her, but I didn't know where to start.

"Xiaoyu, you are not an ordinary classmate with my family Tingting, right?" She seemed to be thinking about what to say to me.

I nodded, not in denial.

She continued, and she didn't know whether to praise her daughter or to prove something: "My Tingting is very strong, so many male classmates seem to be different from you, you are in front of you, she is the most shy." ”

"Yes, Tingting is a good girl." I give it a heartfelt compliment.

"And what do you think?" Aunt Wu raised her eyes to look at me.

"Huh?"

Aunt Wu suddenly asked, "When I came back today, I found that Tingting seemed to have changed a lot, did you kid do something bad?" ”

I didn't expect her to be so direct and ask such a question, I was stunned for a moment, and I couldn't help but wake up halfway: "Aunt Wu-"

She still smiled: "Don't try to deny it, my aunt is from the past, and I can still see that my daughter has changed suddenly." It's not that I want you to be like that, I also understand the things of young people now, but as a parent, I can't help but think more about my children. I can see what Tingting is doing to you, and I hope you treat her well. ”

"Absolutely." I said anxiously, and when I heard her say this again, the wine was almost sober.

She tapped me on the shoulder, didn't say anything more, and got up and walked out.

At this time, I noticed a figure flashing next to the door, Tingting hurriedly ran away, it turned out that she had not left, probably afraid that her mother would say something bad to me.
