The dinner was held in the central courtyard of the courtyard, and a log table was filled with the Lin family and their members.

Lin Hongde sat on the upper seat, Yao Ze was pulled to the side by him and sat down, Lin Beilei followed Yao Ze to sit next to Yao Ze, squeezing his eyes towards Yao Ze with a smile, because there were many people present, he had to maintain his image, Yao Ze directly ignored Lin Beilei's small movements, and on the other side of Lin Hongde were the two elders who were sitting with the second uncle and the third uncle, and Lin Wanshan and some side juniors went down once.

"It's a happy day." Lin Hongde picked up the cup and laughed, and everyone hurriedly followed the old man to raise a glass.

Lin Hongde glanced at Yao Ze and said gently: "I really didn't expect that I would be able to see my own grandson in my lifetime, this life is enough, and calling everyone over today is to recognize your face." He pointed to Yao Ze and said: "He, Yao Ze is my Lin Hongde's grandson, and now he has also stepped into the officialdom, I hope everyone here can help more in the future, I am such a grandson, no matter under any circumstances, I don't want him to suffer, I can still protect him when I am here, but I am gone?" Then it's up to you to support you, do you understand what I'm saying? ”

The people who can come to Lin Hongde here are definitely officials at or above the deputy ministerial level, except for some women and children, everyone listened to Lin Hongde's words and expressed their attitudes, Lin Hongde nodded with satisfaction, and then raised his glass and said, "Come, let's do this cup together." ”

After drinking and putting down the glass, Lin Hongde looked at the two on the left, and said loudly: "Second, third, Xiao Ze will have to rely on you to take care of him in the future, he is still young and does not think things through, and when I am gone, you must help me watch him all the time." ”

"How can you not be there, Hongde, you have such good body and bones, why do you say frustrating words." Second uncle Chen Guangyu looked at Lin Hongde with concern and said with a worried look.

Lin Hongde sighed and said with a wry smile: "People are old, maybe they will leave one day, I have to explain things clearly before leaving, and now if I don't explain and leave suddenly one day, I won't even have a chance to explain." ”

Yao Ze, who was sitting on the side, felt a little sour when he heard Lin Hongde's words, and held Lin Hongde's somewhat shriveled hand from under the table, and said, "Grandpa, you will definitely be able to live a long life." As he spoke, he tightened Lin Hongde's hand.

Lin Hongde laughed heartily, nodded and said: "Xiao Ze, I also want to live to be a hundred years old, I really want to watch your wings slowly plump, and then reach the top of power, even if you go down at that time, you will smile Jiuquan." Our grandfather and grandson have just met, and I am reluctant to leave early. ”

Yao Ze smiled, only to feel that his eyes were a little rosy.

Lin Wanshan on the other side reminded softly: "Dad, look at today's happy day, let's talk about other topics." ”

Lin Hongde nodded with a smile and said, "Don't say it, don't say it, let's eat food." ”

"Hey, Yao Ze." Lin Beilei gently kicked Yao Ze's calf under the table with her toes.

Yao Ze turned his head to look at Lin Beilei and asked in a low voice, "What?" ”

Lin Beilei said with a look of grievance: "Your appearance made grandpa and dad start to snub me." ”

Yao Ze smiled gently and said, "No, you will be my sister in the future, and I will treat you well." ”

"I'm not unfamiliar with you." Lin Beilei glanced at Yao Ze, but her face was full of smiles, but she seemed to think of something, and her smile disappeared in an instant.

Yao Ze saw Lin Beilei's expression in his eyes, and asked in a low voice, "What, do you have something on your mind?" ”

Lin Beilei glanced at Yao Ze and nodded slightly, she really had no friends to complain about, so she said to Yao Ze: "Talk to me later." ”

Yao Ze nodded and said with a smile: "Okay." ”

Next is Yao Ze's round of toasting, almost half a catty of liquor was drunk in a circle, and he also gave Lin Hongde a glass of wine in Yao Ze's bearing atmosphere, and Yao Ze's task was completed.

After the meal, everyone greeted Lin Hongde and Yao Ze and left one after another, and the eldest uncle and second uncle encouraged Yao Ze before leaving.

There were only Lin Hongde, Lin Wanshan, Yao Ze, and Lin Beilei left in the courtyard, Lin Hongde glanced at Yao Ze a few times, and said in a somewhat heavy tone: "Xiao Ze, go to the house and put incense on your father, after so many years, I have to let him see what you look like." ”

Yao Ze listened to Lin Hongde's words, nodded lightly, and his expression became a little sad.

Walking into Lin Hongde's room alone, there is a photo of Yao Ze's father on the desk, he was indeed somewhat similar to Yao Ze when he was young, with clear outlines and heroic eyebrows.

Yao Ze picked up three sticks of incense from the desk and lit them, then bowed to the photo, and said softly to the photo: "Dad, Yao Ze has come to see you, my son is doing well now, if you have a spirit in the sky, rest in peace, if there is an afterlife, I will still be your son, and I will definitely serve you......"

……

The stars are like this at night.

Yao Ze and Lin Beilei strolled through the streets of Yanjing.

Seeing Yao Ze's head lowered, he didn't seem to have any emotion, so he asked tentatively, "Feeling bad?" ”

Yao Ze lit a cigarette and took a puff, nodded lightly and said, "A little." ”

Lin Beilei said: "Because of your father? ”

Yao Zeen sighed.

Lin Beilei sighed and said, "You're okay, at least you know who your father is, but what about me, I don't even know who my father is." ”

Yao Ze looked at Lin Beilei and said softly: "Lin Wanshan is your father, is he not as good as your father?" ”

"No, he is 10,000 times better than my biological father, but I am not reconciled, why should my biological father lose me!" Lin Beilei had a sad look on her face.

Yao Ze sighed and said, "Why do you have to think so much in life, isn't it better for you to follow the second uncle now?" ”

Lin Beilei nodded, and her feelings were also lost with Yao Ze.

Yao Ze said with a wry smile: "Be happy." ”

Lin Beilei squeezed out a smile.

Yao Ze asked, "By the way, didn't you want to talk to me about your thoughts when you were eating?" What's going on? ”

Lin Beilei looked at Yao Ze and asked, "Yao Ze, have you ever fallen out of love?" ”

Yao Ze was slightly stunned, nodded and said, "It's okay." ”

Lin Beilei asked, "Is it painful?" ”

Yao Ze stopped and said, "It's very painful, my heart is like a knife." ”

Lin Beilei stopped and said, "That's how I feel now." ”

Yao Ze was surprised: "You have a boyfriend?" ”

Lin Beilei nodded lightly and said, "Yes, but I haven't seen him for a long time, and I don't know where he went, I only told me that he was on a business trip, and then I never saw him again." ”

Yao Ze said: "Make a call." ”

"Can't get through." Lin Beilei said a little sadly, "If my guess is correct, he must be avoiding me." ”

"How long ago was that?" Yao Ze asked.

Lin Beilei thought for a while and said, "It's been a few months. ”

"Haven't come out of it in months?"

Lin Beilei sighed softly and said: "I am the kind of woman who is not easy to move the truth, if I move the truth, it will be difficult to extricate myself, now I am very uncomfortable every day, I really hope that when I wake up that day, he can stand by my side, or never let me wake up, if I don't wake up, there will be no disappointment, and my heart will not hurt." ”

Yao Ze lit a cigarette again and took a puff, Lin Beilei snatched the cigarette from Yao Ze's hand, and then put it in her mouth and took a sharp puff, choking her coughing again and again, tears flowing.

"Why bother." There are many men in the world.

Lin Beilei squatted on the side of the road, covered her face and cried, "I just want him, I just want him!" ”

"Why should this irresponsible man still think about him, forget about her, maybe you can meet a better one." Yao Ze squatted down and whispered comfort in Lin Beilei's ear.

Lin Beilei shrugged her nose and whimpered, "Give me a piece of paper." ”

Yao Ze smiled bitterly, put on his pocket, took out a handkerchief, and said, "Then go." ”

Lin Beilei wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and then wiped a handful of snot before handing the handkerchief back to Yao Ze, Yao Ze waved his hand angrily and said, "I don't want it, give it to you." ”

Lin Beilei stood up and said coquettishly: "You dislike me? ”

Yao Ze said with a wry smile: "Miss, you wiped your nose, how can you use it for me?" ”

Listening to Yao Ze's words, Lin Beilei burst out laughing, and when she was just crying, she laughed again, so she felt very embarrassed, glared at Yao Ze, and said, "I'll return it to you when I'm clean." ”

Yao Ze smiled and nodded, and then said, "Go back, I'll send you." ”

Lin Beilei shook her head and said, "I don't want to go back." ”

Yao Ze asked, "What then?" ”

Lin Beilei thought for a moment and said slyly: "You put your ears over......"

"No, absolutely not!" Yao Ze listened to Lin Beilei's ghost and immediately refused.

Lin Beilei pouted and said, "Go, go." ”

"No!"

"I'm in a bad mood, can you go crazy with me?" Lin Beilei's eyes were red again, and she looked like she was about to cry.

Yao Ze was depressed, "If you let others know that I am a department-level cadre to accompany you to do that kind of thing, you have to lose your life." ”

"Don't worry, no one will know, let's go." Lin Ruixin stomped her feet.

Yao Ze sighed and said, "Only this once." ”

Lin Beilei nodded happily.

Yao Ze was puzzled and asked, "Have you ever done this kind of thing before?" ”

Lin Beilei nodded and said, "He has accompanied me before." ”

Yao Ze fell silent when he heard this, and Lin Beilei's expression also became a little sad.

"Let's go, I'll go with you. I'll go crazy with you tonight. Yao Ze stood on the side of the road and waved to stop a car to rent a car, and then said, "Let's go, get in the car." ”

Lin Beilei smiled, nodded and got into the car.

The two got into the car, and the taxi driver asked where to go.

Lin Beilei said coquettishly: "Go to the suburbs." ”

The driver wondered, "Where in the suburbs?" You've got to make it clear, right? ”

Lin Beilei frowned and said: "You are a taxi driver, how much nonsense, let you drive, you will drive, and when it comes, you will naturally call you." ”

The taxi driver glanced at Lin Beilei from the rear mirror depressedly, and said in his heart, this girl is beautiful, but she has a pungent temperament, and glanced at Yao Ze again, revealing a sympathetic expression.

Yao Ze saw the gaze of the taxi driver, smiled and spread his hands, expressing helplessness.
