Chapter Ninety-One: The Pastry of the Great Beauty
Wonderful no pop-up window free!
The old man looked out the window and was silent for a long time, as if he was wondering where to start telling the story that had been sealed for a long time, and Yan Rui sat there quietly, waiting for him to tell the story in no hurry.
"Your mother is a very hard worker." The old man finally spoke, "Although she is from the countryside, she is a very thoughtful person, and she longs to get out of the mountains. She came to this city, at first it was very hard, working in a small supermarket, and then she enrolled in night school, self-admitted to university, and came to work in my company after obtaining her degree, and then I saw that she was very clever and practical, so I promoted her to be my secretary. My relationship with her was slowly cultivated. I was so attracted to her that I fell in love with her......"
The old man sighed and then said: "And my relationship with Ah Yan and his mother is getting weaker and weaker, but in the end, I am sorry for his mother first, and in this matter, I have always felt ashamed of their mother and son." Ah Yan's mother is a strong woman, after knowing my relationship with your mother, she resolutely decided to divorce me, and your mother and I have always been because of a disturbed conscience, and we are not really together, your mother told me that she doesn't need any status, as long as she can see me every day, she is very satisfied, but then we were punished, and your mother left me forever because of a car accident......"
Yan Qian knows that the relationship between her mother and the old man will naturally be condemned by society, and they will not live peacefully, but some feelings know that it should not happen, but it is helpless when it happens. Therefore, falling in love with someone you shouldn't love is a tragedy after all.
"Your mother's grave is in the cemetery in Nanshan, when you have time, go and see her!" The old man said earnestly.
Yan Qian nodded silently.
"Alas, your mother probably didn't expect that the daughter she was thinking about used to live under her nose, and she couldn't recognize you until she died, which was the biggest regret in her life!"
The mother-daughter relationship is the most able to poke people's tears, but Yan Qian listened to the story of the woman who should call her mother, she never shed a single tear, but she felt that her heart was very heavy, so heavy that she felt dull and depressed.
The old man called Yan Lijun in and said to them, "I will not object to the matter of the two of you, you can do whatever you like!" My time is running out, and I can't control you,? You'll have to live by yourselves in the future! ”
Yan Qian looked at the old man's vicissitudes of life, and felt that he was a poor old man.
On the way back to the apartment, the two had their own thoughts, and neither of them spoke.
There are also grievances accumulated between them from the previous generation, and it is impossible to say that there are no knots in their hearts at all.
In fact, in this matter, Yan Lijun has already made a choice.
At night, Yan Qian went to bed early by herself, but she couldn't sleep for a long time, until Yan Lijun also went to bed and hugged her into her arms from behind, she felt a sense of security.
Yan Rui thought to herself, this is really a terrible phenomenon, Yan Lijun replaced the teddy bear, and she could only sleep in his arms.
……
On the weekend, Yan Rui wore a black dress and was about to go out, when she was changing her shoes in the hallway, Yan Lijun, who was originally in the study, suddenly appeared in front of her and asked, "You want to go out?"
"Yes." Yan Qian replied in a low voice.
"Let's do it together!" Yan Lijun said.
"No, I'll be over soon." Yan Qian is going to the cemetery to worship his biological mother, and Yan Lijun probably doesn't want to see the woman he hates again, even if it's a tombstone or a photo.
Yan Lijun looked Yan Qian's whole body up and down, and said, "I'll send you where you go!"
Yan Lijun held the car key in his hand, looking like he couldn't refuse, so Yan Rui didn't say anything more.
The car drove onto the avenue, and Yan Lijun asked, "South or north?" There is a cemetery to the south and a cemetery to the north.
"Southside." Yan Qian was stunned, there was really nothing that could escape Yan Lijian's eyes.
Yan Lijun drove the car to the door of a flower shop first and led Yan Qian into the flower shop. Yan Qian looked at the various varieties of flowers, and suddenly didn't know what flowers to buy, she didn't know anything about her biological mother.
Yan Lijun picked a handful of tulips, asked the clerk to pack them, and then stuffed them into Yan Qian's arms, saying, "I think the old man always likes to give tulips to her, she should like this kind of flower!"
Yan Qian looked at Yan Lijun with complicated eyes, picking flowers for the woman he hated, what kind of mood was he in at the moment?
Yan Lijun raised his eyebrows and smiled, took out his wallet, paid the money, and walked out of the flower shop first.
Yan Lijun accompanied Yan Qian up the stone stairs, and at a few dozen meters away from Yan Qian's mother's tombstone, Yan Lijun stopped, and said, "Go over by yourself!" I won't bother you mother and daughter chatting. ”
Yan Qian actually didn't have anything to say to her biological mother, she put down the flower and stood in front of the tombstone for a long time, but she was always silent.
Yan Qian sighed silently, although she is a child who has no one to hurt in life, but no matter what, thank her for bringing her into this world!
Yan Qian walked towards Yan Lijun and found him standing in the wind, looking into the distance, smoking a cigarette.
Yan Qian looked at Yan Lijun with some surprise, in her impression, he never smoked.
Yan Lijun saw that Yan Rui's eyes were a little stunned when he looked at him, so he immediately extinguished the cigarette butt and said with a smile: "I have been socializing too much recently, and I just learned it, so I smoked one without holding back for a while."
Yan Lijun just learned to smoke, he has no addiction to smoking, he never smokes when he gets home, he only smokes when he is socializing, and just now he was thinking about his thoughts, and he involuntarily took out his cigarette and smoked it.
"Are you under a lot of pressure at work?" Yan Qian asked.
"It's fine." It's just that he's doing something he doesn't like to do, so he's not very happy.
"Smoking is not good for your health!" Yan Qian paused for a few seconds and said, "It's not good to drink too much!" ”
Yan Qian remembered that many nights, Yan Lijun always came back drunk. She also knows that there are some things that he doesn't want, but between his identity, there are always some responsibilities to bear, so she is a little helpless!
Yan Qian stood on tiptoe, reached out to touch Yan Lijun's eyebrows, smoothed his frowning brows for him, and asked, "Are you tired?"
Yan Lijun smiled lightly and held Yan Qian's hand, kissed her finger, and said, "It's okay, I'm a man!" Men have to be responsible, responsible!
Yan Qian knew that Yan Lijun was very tired, but she couldn't help him. Yan Jiawen is right, her existence will not help Yan Lijun's career in any way, and will even drag him down.
"Is there anything I can do for you?" Yan Qian asked.
"I want to eat what you cooked, and keep eating." Yan Lijun said as she straightened her long hair that was blown by the wind for Yan Qian.
……
On Sunday, at lunchtime, Yan Rui and Yan Lijun were eating, and Yan Yushu came.
The old man was seriously ill, and Yan Yushu also returned to China, she used to study in Australia, and now she is studying for graduate school there.
As soon as Yan Yushu entered the door and saw a table of dishes, she unceremoniously found her own dishes and chopsticks and sat down, saying, "What a coincidence, I bumped into you eating, I just didn't eat it, so let's eat together!"
Yan Yushu took a few dishes and tasted them, and said, "You guys have a very moist life, and you still cook so many dishes when two people eat!"
Yan Qian smiled lightly, she just saw that Yan Lijun was too tired recently, and she couldn't help much, so she made a few more dishes for him to eat.
"What an accident, you still live together?" Yan Yushu said while eating vegetables, "I thought you were separated a long time ago!" Have you been together for so long? I was also surprised when I saw the news! You two are still fine! Looking at my fiery eyes, I felt that something was wrong when I saw the two of you, and I thought that you must have extraordinary feelings! ”
Yan Yushu saw that neither of them spoke, and said, "You two stuffy gourds, aren't you boring to stay together?" I'm curious, what are you all doing together? Doing that every day will be boring and tired! I really don't understand your world! ”
Yan Lijun knocked on Yan Yushu's head with chopsticks and said, "There are so many words to eat, I think you have learned badly abroad in the past few years!" What's going on in your head? ”
Yan Yushu looked unconvinced and said, "Am I wrong?" Look at the thing on Yan Qian's neck, you left it, right? ”
Yan Qian felt embarrassed, and she almost lowered her head under the table, this Yan Yushu and her brother can really say anything!
Yan Lijun was also speechless by her sister, who had no scruples about speaking, and he told himself that he really had to pay attention in the future, what if Yan Qian didn't let him touch her because of this?
Yan Yushu suddenly remembered something, took out a box from her backpack and put it on the table and said: "I went to our mother's place yesterday, she has recently become obsessed with making pastries, when I leave, I insist on giving this to me and let me bring it to you to eat!" I said you don't like desserts, she didn't listen, and said let me stare at you after eating, and then report to her! ”
Yan Lijun frowned slightly, opened the box and saw that it was a heart-shaped matcha cake, and couldn't help but smile: "The big beauty is now full of girlish hearts!"
Yan Yushu took out her mobile phone, called up the camera function, propped it on the table, and said, "Eat, eat!" When I'm done, I'll send the video to the big beauty, and I'll complete the task! Then he went on to eat.
Yan Qian could see from Yan Lijun's resistant eyes that he really didn't like desserts, so he should never be able to eat ice cream with her!
Yan Lijun smiled bitterly and said, "Big beauty, is this testing my love for her?"
Yan Yushu nodded and said, "It must be, she is such an insecure person, and she has to test you from time to time!" On the other hand, she hopes that the fruits of her labor will be recognized by others! ”
But love can really make people overcome everything, I saw Yan Lijun pick up the fork and bury his head in eating, and after eating in one go, he looked at the mobile phone screen and said, "Don't worry!" Big beauty, my son's love for you is unswerving! ”
Yan Yushu smiled and said: "Okay now, I'll send her the video, she has to be happy for a while!"
