Chapter 66 Persuasion of retirement
"Mom, what do you think we should do if we move out?" Lu Jing looked at Ms. Luo and said. Ms. Luo's sideburns have turned gray.
Ms. Luo said a little strangely: "Move out? What are you moving out for? It's a good place to live, and it's good for your dad's health. ”
Lu Jing smiled, put his arm on Ms. Luo's shoulder, and said, "I mean, how about letting the old man retire?" ”
"Huh?" Ms. Luo immediately shook her head, "How is it possible?" Your dad isn't old yet. As she spoke, she touched Lu Jing's head, "Little ghost, what new ideas do you have?" ”
Lu Jingdao: "Mom, I'm serious, I want my dad to step down." I'm ready to persuade him. The eldest brother will also come to persuade him, do you agree? ”
Ms. Luo glanced at Lu Jing unexpectedly, sat down on the chair, picked up the white porcelain teapot, poured a cup of cold tea, took a sip, and said, "It's excellent to retreat." I agree. Your dad's body should have been well recuperated a long time ago. However, I'm worried that your father and son will have conflicts and be angry. Quarrels at home will make people see jokes. ”
"No, it won't." Lu Jing smiled and showed his white teeth, "We all have to convince people with reason!" Ms. Luo smiled: "Okay, you go and try." Your dad will get up at four o'clock. ”
Lu Jing walked over and hugged Ms. Luo, feeling a little excited, as long as the old man stepped back and took good care of his body, his mother would not die so early, but when some words came to his mouth, he didn't know what to say, "Mom!" ”
Ms. Luo knocked Lu Jing's head with a smile, "Okay, let me go, your mother's old bones are going to be broken by you little ghost." ”
Lu Jing let go of his hand, rolled his eyes, and rubbed his head with his right hand, "Mom, I've grown up, you can't hit my head anymore." ”
Ms. Luo drank tea, looked at Lu Jing lovingly, and said with a smile: "In front of Mom, you will always be a child." ”
The old man sat in the study on the second floor, drinking the big red robe, and the youngest son's recent cousin made him feel very satisfied.
"Your mother said you had something to do with me? Say, if you don't violate the principles, I'll do it for you. ”
Lu Jingduan sat on the chair and said, "Dad, you underestimate me too much, I can handle business matters by myself." As he spoke, he took a deep breath and said slowly, "Dad, I hope you can retire and recuperate well." ”
The old man's thick eyebrows were raised, and he gulped down his tea. The gurgling sound is loud.
After Lu Jing finished speaking, he looked at the old man, lowered his head and drank tea slowly, without making a sound. In front of the old man, he was still a little stressed about talking about such a heavy thing.
The atmosphere in the room was somewhat oppressive. It took a while for the old man to speak.
"What's your reasoning?"
"Your body matters, Dad. Mom is only 51 years old this year, what if you have a good one, Mom? You just can't bear it..."Lu Jing came up and magnified his move. He is very aware of the feelings of his parents, the kind of feelings that love each other, know and love each other, live and die together, and never give up.
In her previous life, her mother was sick with longing and died of depression a month after the old man's death.
At that time, Lin Juemin said in "Letter to His Wife" that he hoped that his wife would die by herself first, so that his wife would not endure loneliness after his death. This pain of loneliness should be borne by him.
This is the idea that only when love is extreme can there be such an idea.
Lu Jing believed that the old man would seriously consider what he had just said. The relationship between him and Ms. Luo is not the kind of relationship that is as vigorous as fireworks, but an encounter in the era of gunfire, the inadvertent romance in the long river of time, the thick precipitation in the simple and unpretentious life, and the inseparable companionship in the days of cows, ghosts, snakes and gods.
In his previous life, when Lu Jing was sorting out Ms. Luo's relics, he saw a letter written by the old man himself to Ms. Luo on the front line, which read: "The moment you hold hands, you will not give up again, you just want to grow old together, die together, and no longer let loneliness accompany you." ”
This is the old man's whisper between his husband and wife, and it is the most direct description of this feeling.
However, Lu Jing's words are a bit rebellious, how can there be a son and Lao Tzu discussing the topic of "you are dead", no matter how open-minded people are, they will feel uncomfortable when they hear this.
Sure enough, the old man snorted heavily, turning his face faster than turning a book, "You have been idle lately, hiding at home and being lazy to eat." After dinner, I went back to school. ”
"Oh." Lu Jing obediently agreed.
"Your final exam results are a mess, which makes me look shameful and be laughed at." The old man put the teacup on the table, and it made a "snap" as if it had smashed on Lu Jing's heart. Lu Jing's eyelids jumped involuntarily.
The old man continued to reprimand: "Old man Liu said a few days ago that you fought bravely and fiercely, and it was difficult to become a big weapon, and you lost the face of our older generation. Don't let me hear anyone say you fight again, or I want you to look good. You know? ”
"Yes!" Lu Jing lowered his head, and secretly scolded Old Man Liu in his heart for eating radishes and worrying about it. There is no good person in the old Liu family.
"You go out first!"
Lu Jing stood up and put the teacup on the table, "Dad--? ”
The old man waved his hand and said with a straight face, "I know." There seemed to be a hint of tiredness in his tone.
Lu Jing closed the door of the study, it was pitch black inside, and he couldn't see the old man's expression. I don't know what the old man thinks. The eldest brother asked him to talk about it first, that is, he wanted to talk about the old man from the perspective of family affection first, and then the eldest brother would analyze it in politics.
This is the tacit understanding of the two brothers.
As a result, Lu Jing made a big move when he came up, and before he could say some good words in his heart, he was reprimanded by the old man and driven out. However, the old man is determined and has his own judgment on everything, Lu Jing doesn't need a big move, I'm afraid it will be difficult to cause a shock in his heart.
At dinner, the old man's face was expressionless, and he couldn't read what was in his heart. Ms. Luo's eyes rolled over the two of them, but she didn't say anything. As a husband and wife for many years, she can naturally see that Lao Lu is thinking a lot at the moment. Lu Jing ate dinner listlessly, packed up his things and went back to No. 4 Middle School.
Lying on the bed in the bedroom, Lu Jing took out his mobile phone and called his eldest brother, "Brother, that's it, but the old man is not very happy about the situation, and I'll see you later." ”
"Oh?"
Lu Jing explained the situation again. The eldest brother pondered for a while and said, "My place has been decided, go to Sujiang." ”
"What?" Lu Jing sat up, not knowing what to say. The situation in Sujiang is more stable than that in northern Chu, and it rises faster, and its career will be much smoother. And the officialdom in northern Chu is quite unquiet at the moment. and the fall of the vice governor brought out a large number of cadres, the division secretary, the governor of Hua, and Secretary Zhao in a three-way game, and the officialdom in northern Chu was turbulent, and there were whirlpools everywhere. The situation in northern Chu is very uncertain now, and there is a feeling of seeing flowers in a fog.
The eldest brother laughed on the phone, "What, you want me to go to Chubei to muddy the waters?" Hehe, have faith. Wait for my news! After saying that, he hung up the phone.
The night outside the window was completely shrouded in the earth, and the room was pitch black, and then the moonlight through the window could vaguely see things clearly.
Lu Jing lay on the bed, looked at the ceiling, and sighed, probably because it had been too smooth recently, in fact, many things were out of his control.
Especially when it came to power, the prescient advantage he had was suppressed to a very small extent. There are some general trends that he can't control at all.
After Wang Can finished the college entrance examination, he took Xia Siyu and pulled a group of classmates to travel to Beigang City, Liaodong Province. Now I guess it's a lot of fun.
Lu Jing thought about it, took out the phone and called Guan Ning, asking her to come out for lunch tomorrow. After Guan Ning finished the college entrance examination, he felt that he did well in the exam, and went to the Texas Summer Resort with Ruan Chen and others for a week, and now he should be back.
