Chapter 158: No Compromise

"Well, I'll admit that my culinary debut was a failure." Yu Lin unbuttoned his apron and sighed: "Alas, I ruined such a good ingredient." ”

"Little brother-in-law, it seems that Nong is really not a grid material, and Nong is better at doing anything than being a big vegetable master."

Yu Lin glanced at Katsuo: "Let's wait for your mother to come back and make the rest of the ingredients." If it's hard to swallow, I'll have to buy ready-made. ”

"Okay, okay, little brother-in-law, you can go buy some ready-made dim sum, I want to eat Nanxiang xiaolong, three fresh wontons, fried steamed buns, and open onion oil noodles." Katsuo Lion opened his mouth and reported all the snacks he usually wanted to eat but didn't have a chance to eat.

"Ah, edamame, your appetite has increased a bit, but fortunately, you are injured and lose your appetite, if you are not injured, you will eat all the dim sum shops in Shanghai."

"Brother-in-law, I have a shoulder injury, not a stomach injury, I can eat."

Yu Lin scratched Shengnan's nose: "You are really a gluttonous old embryo." “

"Brother-in-law, Can't Nong be seen as if I was injured or not, Waiga was still injured for the righteous cause of Ala, can you give me more rewards?" Katsuo winked mischievously.

"You, aren't you afraid of making your brother-in-law poor? Well, to reward you for your heroic feats, I'm going to buy it for you. ”

Yu Lin grimaced at Katsuo, and then went out to forage for Katsuo......

Yu Lin went around outside, bought some fried steamed buns that Shengnan likes to eat, Nanxiang Xiaolong, and opened onion oil noodles and came back for Shengnan for lunch.

Approaching the entrance of the alley, Yulin found a military jeep parked outside the alley in Jixiangli, and after a closer look, it was the car of the Songhu Garrison Headquarters. I couldn't help but chuckle in my heart: Could it be that Katsuo and they were exposed? But after thinking about it, if it was to arrest Shengnan, it should be a police car, how could it be a military vehicle?

Yu Lin cautiously entered No. 18 Jixiangli through the back door, then quietly went upstairs and knocked lightly. Katsuo came out to open the door, and saw Yulin's grim face and didn't know what was wrong.

"Brother-in-law, how can it be? What's going on? What are Nong's faces doing serious? ”

"Katsuo, did anyone knock on the door during the time I was out?"

Katsuo shook his head: "No." What's wrong? ”

"I saw a military vehicle parked at the entrance of the alley, and I thought you were exposed."

"Oh, it turned out to be a Ge Neng body, and an officer just came down to find Mr. Xia in the first room."

"Oh? Is it? ”

When Yu Lin heard this, he hurriedly put the snacks on the dining table and ran into the bedroom. Shengnan was very happy when he saw that Yulin had brought back so many delicious foods, so he hurriedly sat down and devoured them.

"Brother-in-law, come and eat quickly, it's delicious."

"You eat first, I'm not hungry."

Yu Lin replied to Katsuo while looking downstairs.

It didn't take long for the door of the next room downstairs to open, and the young Mr. Xia excitedly rushed at an officer and the wife next to the officer.

"If he refuses to recognize Yunyun as the daughter-in-law of the Xia family, I will cut off the father-son relationship with him. You don't have to be a lobbyist, I will never abandon Yunyun and marry another. ”

"Ah Jun, calm down, you know your father's temper, why do you bother to have a hard top with his old man?" The officer's wife persuaded Mr. Xia.

"He also knows my temper, sister, you don't need to say it, I was ready to be self-reliant when I escaped from home, and I will not give in. Sister, if you take this money back and return it to him, it is impossible for me to be bought by him. I'm totally able to support myself now. Don't think you can do whatever you want with a little stinky money. Xia Wenjun stuffed a stack of money into Xia Wenqian's hand.

"Ah Jun, you've gone a little too far." The officer next to him spoke: "Your sister has been looking for you for almost a year, and I finally found you, and persuaded you to go back and admit your mistake to the old man. Why make the father-son relationship so stiff for the sake of a woman? ”

"Brother-in-law, if you are really for my good, you should persuade him to accept Yunyun, I can't do anything that I have to give up."

"If you really like your Yunyun, you can take Yunyun as a concubine, the Jin family is a world friend with us, and many of my father's businesses are inextricably linked with the Jin family, even if you sacrifice a little bit of your personal interests for the Xia family, what does it matter?" Xia Wenqian still persuaded her younger brother bitterly.

"Sister, the more you talk about it, the more outrageous it becomes, when you abandoned your college classmate Jiang Zhiyuan and married your brother-in-law instead, isn't it that he took a fancy to the status of his brother-in-law's military and hoped to have a gun to support him, so he sacrificed your happiness, and now he wants to cover the sky with one hand to interfere with my happiness, you tell him, no way."

The officer beside him couldn't stand it anymore: "You kid really bites Lu Dongbin, you don't know the hearts of good people, I came to persuade your father and son to reconcile, you talked about me, you and your Lao Tzu are both virtuous, like a donkey." I don't care about this, Wen Qian, I'll wait for you in the car. ”

After the officer finished speaking, he opened the door and went out.

"Don't think that you are prosperous now, and you can show off your power with a few broken guns, who will be in the world in the future? There are times when you cry and call your mother. Xia Wenjun looked at his brother-in-law's back and muttered.

"Jun, you're going too far. How can you say that? Xia Wenqian slapped Xia Wenjun hard.

Xia Wenjun covered his face, walked into the house angrily, threw out all the gifts sent by Xia Wenqian, and then slammed the door shut.

Xia Wenqian left No. 18 Jixiangli while crying.

Yu Lin saw it really upstairs, he didn't pay much attention to Mr. Xia and Mrs. Xia at first, and he didn't usually have much contact, he just felt that they were an ordinary newlywed couple, but he didn't expect that this Xia Wenjun was still an infatuated person, and he didn't hesitate to break with his father for love, which couldn't help but make Yu Lin look at Xia Wenjun with admiration.

It was much quieter downstairs, and Yu Lin came to the dining room, eating snacks while pondering the officer.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door, Yu Lin glanced at Katsuo, Katsuo immediately understood, and quietly hid in the bedroom.

Yu Lin ran to open the door, and it turned out that the visitor was Xia Wenjun, who was indignant and uncompromising just now.

"Mr. Ouyang, hello, I'm Xia Wenjun in the next room downstairs." Xia Wenjun politely greeted Yulin.

"Hello, hello, please come in and sit." Yu Lin welcomed Xia Wenjun with a smile.

Xia Wenjun bowed his body towards Yulin: "I take the liberty to disturb, I have something to ask for." ”

"Mr. Xia is polite, don't hesitate to say anything about you."

"I heard from the landlady that you are a reporter in the newspaper "Declaration", right?"

Yu Lin nodded: "Yes, yes, yes, I am a reporter from "Declaration". ”

"I'd like to publish a revelation in your paper, is that okay?"

"Of course, what revelation?"

"Revelation of the Declaration of Separation from Paternity." After Xia Wenjun finished speaking, he handed a piece of letter to Lu Yulin.

Lu Yulin opened it and read it:

Statement of Separation from Parent-Child Relationship

Because I can't stand Xia Huai'an's domineering and domineering words and deeds of feudal patriarchy, I will break away from the father-son relationship from now on, and from now on, all the affairs of the Xia family have nothing to do with me. The road is facing the sky, and each one walks on one side. The ditch water flows from east to west, and the old and dead do not come and go.

Declarant: Xia Wenjun

After reading it, Lu Yulin smiled slightly: "Mr. Xia, do you really plan to break away from your father's father-son relationship?" ”

"As long as he doesn't admit Yunyun for a day, he is not my father." Xia Wenjun said resolutely.

"Why didn't your father approve of your marriage to Yunyun?" Yu Lin asked curiously.

"He wanted me to marry the eldest lady of the Jin family, that woman was six years older than me, and she had a very bad temper, she was a well-known shrew in our place, in fact, to be honest, my parents didn't like this eldest lady of the Jin family, but because the Jin family is a world friend with us, and the Jin family has always been the big customer of our Xia family's business, so my father forced me to marry the eldest lady of the Jin family. Yun Yun is my college classmate, her mother washes clothes for others to earn tuition for Yun Yun to go to college, my parents dislike the poor and love the rich, and resolutely do not let me associate with Yun Yun, but Yun Yun and I have long been privately agreed for life, my father threatened me with cutting off my living expenses, forcing me to comply, I don't believe in evil, is it possible that without him, there will be no place for me Xia Wenjun between heaven and earth? So, Yun Yun and I fled Hangzhou together, came to Shanghai, I got a job as a laboratory technician in the water plant, Yun Yun worked as a teacher in a primary school, although our life was not rich, sometimes stretched, but we were spiritually free and happy. ”

Listening to Xia Wenjun's impassioned words, Yu Lin couldn't help but secretly applaud his ambition, courage and determination, but at this time he wanted to know more about his brother-in-law's situation.

"Mr. Xia, it was your sister and brother-in-law who came just now, right?" Yu Lin said casually, saw Xia Wenjun look up at him, and hurriedly explained: "You are arguing very loudly, and I also overheard it." ”

"Nothing, that's really my sister and brother-in-law." Xia Wenjun nodded: "My sister originally fell in love with her college classmate Jiang Zhiyuan, the two have been in contact for six years, and they are almost to the point of talking about marriage, my current brother-in-law, is Liu Shengyi, the deputy commander of the Songhu Garrison Command, once met my sister, and he has been chasing after my sister, that Liu Shengyi has a wife, but my father took a fancy to the status of the surname Liu in the army, so he asked my sister to be Liu Shengyi's aunt's wife, my sister was dead and alive at that time, and my father forced him to die, My sister could only break off with Jiang Zhiyuan and marry Liu Shengyi, although Liu Changlin's wife died later, my sister finally survived, but I think my sister has been happy all these years? If she were happy, she wouldn't often sigh and wash her face with tears when she went back to her parents' house. Therefore, I must not follow my sister's old path, I want to strive for my own happiness. ”

"Mr. Xia, I agree with what you said, marriage should indeed be decided by yourself."

"Mr. Ouyang, thank you for supporting me, you can call me Wenjun."

"Okay, Wen Jun, then you can call me Brother Rui." Lu Yulin looked at the high-spirited young man: "Although I approve of you getting rid of feudal etiquette and seeking freedom of marriage, I don't approve of your approach, this statement of separation from father and son can only make things more and more stiff, and there is no room for retraction, have you asked Yun Yun's opinion?" Would she like to see your father and son turn against each other? Becoming an enemy? I don't think if Yunyun was a girl worthy of your love, she wouldn't approve of your resolute approach. ”

Xia Wenjun was silent, indeed, Yun Yun is a kind girl, she has always hoped that he and his father can turn their rivalry into jade silk and get along in harmony, if Yun Yun knows that he has published a statement to break away from the father-son relationship, Yun Yun will definitely feel that she is the culprit of the Xia family's father and son turning against each other, and she will definitely be heartbroken and uneasy.

"Brother Rui, you're right, Yun Yun has never wanted me to do this, but if I don't make my position clear, they will always refuse to admit Yun Yun, how can I be worthy of Yun Yun? I don't know if there is anything else I can do to keep Yunyun and I together for the rest of my life, and at the same time let our father and son be safe? ”

"Time, time is the best prescription, in a few years, if the eldest lady of the Jin family does not get married, she will become an old girl, I think the Jin family will also retreat from the difficulty, find a step down, abolish the marriage contract between the Xia and Jin families, and wait a few days, you and Yunyun have a child, I think your old father will definitely let go, so I think you should respond to all changes with the same, neither do excessive behavior, nor compromise, and continue to live your little life, after all, you can still be self-reliant. In this way, you father and son will be in peace. ”

"Brother Rui, thank you. I will listen to you, and I will do as you say. But I was afraid that my sister would always come to the door as a lobbyist, and today she suddenly came to the door, and I guess she asked Yunyun's mother for our address. ”

"If your sister hits the nail a few times, she will turn to your parents. But your attitude towards your sister today, I don't approve, the two armies are fighting, and you don't kill her, your sister is the same mother as you, how can you bear to hurt her so much? You should win her to your side, and that's the smart thing to do. ”

After Yu Lin's persuasion, Xia Wenjun felt much more relaxed, smiled at Yu Lin, and stretched out his hand.

"What?" Yu Lin didn't know what to do.

"The statement." Xia Wenjun pointed to the statement in Yulin's hand.

Yu Lin handed the statement back to Xia Wenjun, and Xia Wenjun immediately tore up the statement.

"That's right! How can a son and a father just say that they will break it? ”

Yu Lin said, thinking of his father, and tears suddenly welled up in his eyes.

"What's wrong? Brother Rui? ”

"I think of my father, who is so old that I will never see him again in my life. Before I had time to honor his old man, he ......"

Yu Lin took a deep breath and patted Xia Wenjun on the shoulder: "A lot of things, if you lose them, you will never come back." ”

Xia Wenjun nodded and left the West Wing with a little thought.
