"Why?"

"All kinds of reasons......" Regarding the fact that her father was alcoholic and domestic violence, Zhong Xuemei was ashamed to say it.

After thinking for a while, Chen Luo spoke: "Actually, my father and I also had a period of cold war. In my sophomore year of high school, we didn't talk for the whole semester. My dad is in the furniture business, he is used to teaching people in the company, and he loves to teach people when he comes home. We had a big fight, and then we didn't talk for most of the year. During that time, when I went home, we met and didn't care about each other, and my mother didn't care about it in the middle, it was useless, just the same! ”

Seeing that Xuemei was attentive, Chen Luo continued: "Later, my grandfather had a birthday during the summer vacation, and I didn't want to ride with them, so I rode there in advance. As soon as my grandfather saw me, because I ignored my dad, my dad was so sad that he cried in front of my grandpa! I was shocked to hear it, my dad - what a big boss, not so fragile, I asked my mom my mom was unhappy and frowned all the time I ...... It's like you've made a big mistake! Actually, I didn't have any other thoughts in my heart except to be angry, but I didn't expect my dad to react so much! ”

"And then? How did you reconcile? Xuemei asked.

"On my grandfather's birthday, I didn't go first, my uncle and aunt arrived early, my dad arrived later, I saw my dad go up and take the initiative to call him, and! A Northeast man! Middle-aged men! Suddenly I was very moved, can you imagine that picture? It's all about dozens of people in our family who are criticizing me! ”

Immersed in the shock and emotion of the memories, Chen Luo looked at Xuemei who was contemplating for a moment, and saw that she had not yet explained, so he turned his color and said, "Actually, what do I want?" Sometimes the relationship between our parents and us is fluid, and when we listen to our parents, as we grow up, our parents will listen to us. I mean, if you don't do the other way around, take the initiative to call your dad, what's going on in your heart, don't turn around, go straight! ”

"Uh......" Xuemei hesitated: "My relationship with my father has always been dominated by him, because my father is very strong......" and then described Xuemei in detail did not come out.

"Anyway, if you want to talk to your dad, and you haven't talked for a long, long time, then I'm sure your dad wants to talk to you very, very much. He may hesitate, be embarrassed, and can't open his mouth, so don't you take the initiative and give it a try! And don't lose anything! ”

Chen Luo was instigated by the side, Xuemei listened to it, but she didn't know what to talk about with her father.

"I want to think about ......"

Zhong Xuemei fell into deep thought, Chen Luo looked at the beauty while enjoying the scenery, his face was quiet, and his heart was turbulent.

Ten minutes later, Xue Mei clenched her fists excitedly: "I'll try, senior brother, you wait for me here, right away!" ”

Zhong Xuemei left alone, walked to a grass behind the bamboo forest, nervously dialed her father's phone, and then nervously waited for the response.

"Hello? Mei Mei! Zhong Li, who was sleeping, saw that the mobile phone rang very accidentally, and when he looked at his daughter Meimei, he was extremely relieved.

"Hey Daddy."

The first Meimei and the first father, the tone seemed to return to Zhong Xuemei's childhood, and the hearts of both father and daughter softened.

"Hmm. Belch...... Do you have a cold? ”

When Xuemei heard this, she was shocked, tears welled up in her eyes, and she hurriedly asked her father, "How do you know?" ”

"Your grandfather yesterday!" Seeing his daughter's surprised tone, Zhong Li was shy and ashamed.

"It's almost good, just take a half-break today."

Father and daughter fell silent suddenly.

"You...... How's it going at school? Good no good? Zhong Li said with a smile.

"It's good, don't worry. Tell my grandfather not to worry, you tell him not to be too tired. The girl grinned and pursed her lips, and her eyes moistened again.

Regarding the divorce of her parents, Xuemei didn't dare to ask if she wanted to.

Xuemei glanced at Bai Yun and kicked the grass again, and said, "Chengcheng took the seventh place in the class in the midterm exam, Dad, if you have time, go and see him." He has been worn out under his schoolbag recently, and he didn't talk to my mother or grandfather, or ...... Why don't you buy him a new school bag? Treat it as a reward. Zhong Xuemei plucked up the courage and came up with her ultimate purpose in making this call.

"Well, dad is going to buy it today." Zhong Li nodded heavily on the other end.

After a moment of silence, Zhong Xuemei didn't know what to do. Zhong Li on the other end was even more guilty, he just wanted to hear something from his daughter at this moment, because he thought that he was no longer qualified to speak in front of his daughter.

"Hey Daddy, that ...... I'm going to class, and the afternoon class ......" Xuemei gritted her teeth and didn't know how to pick it up, some regrets and some heartache.

"Cheng Chengcheng, call your dad when you are free."

The conversation between the father and daughter ended early, and the call on the mobile phone was reluctant to hang up, so Xuemei was ruthless and hung up. As soon as I hung up, I remembered that I had a half-break with my father and then I was going to class with my father, which was inconsistent and obviously lying. The girl regretted herself, sighed a few times and stamped her feet on the grass.

Chen Luo, who had been watching Zhong Xuemei from a distance from beginning to end, was overjoyed after watching these actions, he didn't expect this girl to be so cute. Seeing that she wiped away her tears, Chen Luo hurriedly ran over to comfort her. After Zhong Xuemei thanked her, the two left the Grand Canyon Lookout Pavilion relaxed and happy.

The hatred between relatives is much stronger than that of others, and it is the two sides that create hatred, and people pin their hopes on each other when resolving hatred. Those in the lower position pin their hopes on the person who sits in the upper position, and they believe that the person in the upper position has the authority, the right to speak, the qualification and the obligation to resolve the conflict; For the sake of saving face, those in the upper position often hope that they will change, awaken, and identify with themselves.

A simple phone call, how much ice and snow have been warmed. However, freezing three feet is not a day's cold, and solving three feet of ice is not a day's work. In any case, Zhong Li, who was on the phone with his daughter for the first time in several months, was already thinking about where to buy a schoolbag for his son and how to reward him for his great progress.

Based on his own experience, Chen Luo proposed a plan of "reverse warmth", which Zhong Xuemei was able to accept and have the courage to implement, which made a strong contribution to promoting the integration of Zhong Jiarao. However, the fate is deep and shallow, the Ndone is widowed, the love is strong and the love is light, the hatred is short and the hatred is long, it seems to be the master of life, the ghosts and gods are tricked, and the promotion of manpower is more like some kind of coincidence.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, in the large conference room on the thirteenth floor of Xinhui Building in Nanshan Science and Technology Park, seventy or eighty people sat neatly around the large conference table, all holding their breath. There is an ice and snow beauty sitting on the main seat - the goose egg face only sees a slightly high forehead, a slightly short chin, big eyes and thick eyebrows, a flat hall, a straight and long nose, and plump lips; Anyone who comes into contact with her is conquered by her excellent appearance and charismatic personality; Those who work under her respect or trepidate her independent, majestic, and golden-mouthed leadership, and on the other hand, develop a deep trust and dependence on her under this leadership style.

This ice and snow beauty is Li Yubing, the vice president of Nan'an Media Group and the general manager of Ankezhan.

Li Yubing, who was sitting upright and had a solemn demeanor, swept the people around him and said: "Everyone knows, today is Monday, November 4th, and our Anke Exhibition officially opened on November 11th, which is also Monday, and it is exactly seven hours away from this moment." This morning, through face-to-face invitation, phone call, and WeChat, I personally went to various departments to invite department leaders and staff related to the Anke Exhibition to participate in the meeting, and the scheduled meeting time was two o'clock in the afternoon, and now it is two and three minutes, and I gave a three-minute break. In order to show the importance we attach to this meeting, we would like to take a name before we begin. Manager Wu, come and get some. ”

Li Yubing gave Wu Minglan on her left a list, and Wu Minglan read according to the list: "Let's start with the affairs department of our society, I, Wu Minglan, Pan Lingling, Song Meiting, Zhou Jun, Cao Ruixiong...... The business department is finished with the design department, Ning Guanghua, Liu Huan, Chen Juyi...... Feng Zicai and Cao Hongshan of the administration...... Lin Peiyuan and Zhao Jingjing of the editorial department ......"

Every time someone arrives, someone sitting below shouts "yes" or raises their hand in the crowd.

"Xi Chenguang of the Finance Department-" When Xi Chenguang was called by name, no one responded.

Everyone looked left and right, and Wu Minglan clicked again: "Xi Chenguang? ”

Sure that he was not there, Li Yubing turned his head and rushed to Peng Xing, a young employee sitting at the door of the conference room: "Fortunately, go and call Xi Chenguang." ”

After the roll call was completed, Xi Chenguang also came, Li Yubing glanced at Xi Chenguang coldly and said, "Ran Quan, the meeting begins." Anke Exhibition is not only the conference department and the business department can be handled, it needs everyone's cooperation, the more critical the moment, the more we must cooperate with each other. At present, the progress of the Anke exhibition is not an exaggeration - difficult, loose, fragmented, and planned. It is not excluded that there are many people who are working hard, but on the whole, they are very disappointed! Very bad! First of all, I would like to apologize to you, because I have recently been delayed due to other things, which has led to all kinds of difficulties and delays in the preparation process of the exhibition, which is my dereliction of duty as a leader. The state of dereliction of duty has come to this day, to this moment, for - stop! ”

As soon as Li Yubing, whose face did not change, said this, the others present were silent, and even the sound of the pen falling on the table could be heard.

"In addition, I would like to express my attitude to all the relevant personnel of this exhibition: from November 4th today to the seventh after the end of the exhibition, that is, November 18th, in the middle of the two weeks, no matter which department! Whether it's employees or leaders! Anyone who misses an important task will either be remedied by twelve o'clock that night, or roll up and leave! I, Li Yubing, am here today, if there is a failure or mistake in the exhibition because of a certain combustion, I can use my credit to guarantee that he will never gain a foothold in this industry again! ”

"At present, I have a rough idea of the progress of the Anke Exhibition. The months-long stretching, investment, sponsorship, awards, etc. have all come to an end; The design, procurement and decoration of the exhibition site are currently underway, and the following tasks are more difficult now. One is the invitation and reception of customers in the industry, including VIPs and foreign guests; One is the preparation of forums and conferences, which requires the cooperation of several departments; One is the invitation and hospitality of the media; The other is the work plan and specific arrangements of each department during the development period; Finally, there are some trivial tasks that need to be specially arranged. A lot of the work may not be within the management of the conference department, but I'm gone, whoever has a problem will leave! The purpose of convening you here today is precisely to solve these five problems. ”

Swallowing his saliva and drinking a glass of clean water, Li Yubing clasped his chin in his fists and continued to speak: "This year, due to the special situation of the editorial department, many tasks have been delayed or no one has taken the lead. If there is any work that needs the cooperation of the editorial department, just tell me and I will assign it. There's only one way I manage my newsroom – look at the results. That one...... Let Manager Wu Minglan Wu tell you about the first task: inviting the audience and receiving leaders. ”

Wu Minglan took the microphone and faced everyone: "The current invitation is divided into two types, professional audiences and industry leaders. The professional audience is in charge of Ma Guiying's manager according to the convention, and now he has recruited fourteen part-time jobs, and he keeps calling, and if they can't finish the fight after three, they may need some people present to cooperate and help. Senior leaders, university professors, professionals, VIPs, etc., Mr. Qian and several vice presidents of the company have been helping recently, and the salesman has also allocated some in his hands, and I will send the list to you later. The invitation of foreign guests requires the cooperation of our overseas department, and I have sent the goal, quantity, reception specifications, and post-exhibition thank you to several colleagues from the overseas department last week, and you have not yet informed me of any progress so far. In addition, we need to recruit four simultaneous translators during the forum, about four, I'm afraid I will forget it later, so let's take a look here. Our colleagues in the overseas department have many tasks and are stressful, and they work hard. Regarding the hospitality of government leaders and industry VIPs, we have invited a special reception company, but it is not enough......"

As soon as Wu Minglan received the question, twenty minutes passed.

"Okay, we've invited and hosted our forums, conferences, and on-site events." Li Yubing, the main meeting, picked up a piece of paper and said: "In this exhibition, we have collected a total of 23 forums, conferences and activities, including three large-scale forums, one is seven, one is three, and one is one, all of which are attended by important leaders. The on-site design and layout of these three forums, the deployment of conference personnel, leadership hospitality, gift giving, conference hosting, etc., were jointly responsible for the business department and the editorial department in previous years, and this year the main editorial department of the business department cooperated. There are a few meetings that are sponsored by the company, the title, when the time comes to need our salesman to pull some audiences for these meetings, who is responsible for the customer host, who is too busy to find the manager of Ma, if there is a problem, come to me directly, need the leader to attend or award, lottery, tell me quickly, I will make an appointment with Mr. Qian or other leaders. Now, let Mr. Ma introduce the meetings and activities during the exhibition. ”

Ma Guiying, who had panda eyes, barely slept last night, and was not tired at the moment, and was energetic as soon as she spoke: "I'll talk about it in chronological order." After the opening of the exhibition, the first important event is the award of awards - the White Tiger Award and the top 10 list are the two most important. I have already marked the time and place of the award on the navigation map. Before the launch, all salesmen must go to the scene to see the location, and then inform their customers of the time and place of the award. If any company misses the opportunity to meet and shake hands with the leaders of the Ministry of Public Security, it is a missed and there is no possibility of remediation. Therefore, leading the award-winning enterprises or leaders to the podium in advance may be the most important job for the salesmen after the opening of the exhibition and the leadership tour. The following are the main preparatory ...... of the forum"

Ma Guiying opened her mouth, and half an hour passed.

"Good! Next, let's talk about the media. Since the editorial department has no leader, then I'll come. ”

Li Yubing looked at several colleagues in the editorial department and said solemnly: "Whether there is anyone leading or not, we still have to work hard to do the work we should do." The list of media invited in previous years is now in my hands, so leave the work of inviting the media to Lin Peiyuan, there are a total of forty-two media, which ones come and which ones don't, Peiyuan, you will give me a result. ”

"Okay." Lin Peiyuan responded in the crowd.

"The work of the media unit to participate in the exhibition and change the exhibition will be handed over to Zheng Lai, and in the same way, Ming will reply to me."

"Okay, Mr. Li." Zheng smiled and nodded in response.

"The reception work of the mainstream media...... Lao Jie, you are responsible! I think the newsroom now only has the experience to handle this work. ”

"Yes." After the old comrades in the editorial department finished the work, they carefully recorded it in their notebooks.

"In addition, Manager Ma (Ma Guiying), you can count the total number of press releases needed for the promotion of the exhibition, combined with the situation in previous years, and give me the theme after the statistics, that ...... Zhao Jingjing! I'll be in charge of distributing the press releases, and you'll be in charge of collecting the press releases from the editors in the editorial department. On Thursday, the third day before the opening, you send me one copy of all the press releases and one copy to Mr. Ma, who returns the press releases to the heads of the forums and the sponsors for them to proofread by themselves. In the end, Lin Peiyuan and Zheng sent these press releases to various media one by one. Do I understand? ”

"Understood." Ma Guiying, Lin Peiyuan, Lao Zheng and others nodded their heads one after another

"Okay, the news is over, what should we do in each department next, Manager Wu, let's talk about it."

Wu Minglan then elaborated on the work that should be done by various departments, from the design department to the logistics department, from the personnel department to the finance department, from the sending and receiving department to the administration department, from the company's procurement to the group association...... Before I knew it, most of the time had passed.

"Next is some trivial work, Manager Ma come on."

Ma Guiying started from the driver, and as soon as she spoke, a ray of sunlight on the desk moved half a foot to the east.

"Finally, everyone asks questions, if you have questions about your work, ask clearly, don't have an accident in the end, you tell me that you didn't hear clearly, don't understand or can't do it, I'm sorry, I don't accept such a reason!"

Li Yubing patted the table and continued: "In the next two weeks, the biggest and most important thing for Nan'an Media and even the entire Anke industry in China is to participate in the exhibition and watch the exhibition. Is there a problem? Li Yubing looked around at everyone majestically.

Xi Chenguang took the lead in raising his hand and said: "Mr. Li, that's the case, now the reimbursement of our business department is not a system, it is the traditional reimbursement method in the past, I want to ask ......"

Everyone was afraid of problems, doubtful questions, and difficult complaints, and the meeting lasted until 6 o'clock in the evening. Before the meeting, everyone had it in their hearts, and after the meeting, everyone's hearts were heavy. Li Yubing has always been the same in the company, and everyone trembled when they heard that they were going to leave if they couldn't complete the task.

After the end of the all-staff meeting related to the Anke Exhibition, Li Yubing held a middle-level discussion meeting in the evening, and arranged the work of the week before the exhibition in a solid and dense manner. Because of these two conferences, the Anke Exhibition can be half the success.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhong Li put on decent clothes, changed into sneakers with the bottom of the morning wear, and went out to buy a schoolbag for his son. After walking five or seven streets and visiting several stationery stores, I chose a cute, sturdy and convenient school bag. After paying the bill, I rushed to study, and strode all the way, but I was a step late.

Zhong Li thought that the students were out of school at five o'clock in the afternoon, but the end time of Xuecheng School was half past four in the afternoon.

Lao Ma and Yangyang had dinner outside, all the way leisurely, step by step and three shakes back, arrived home at six o'clock and just opened the door, found that the boy was back.

"Why did you come back so early today?" The old horse put away the rippling schoolbag and came over to ask the boy

"Exam! I'll be back after the last exam at half past five! ”

"Have you eaten?"

"Nope! I ordered takeout at school and got home right away. ”

Today's children are not as happy as before, working hard to go to school, and learning until eleven o'clock at night, how can the children of the past be relaxed and comfortable. Tsai Tsai lay motionless on the sofa with his eyes closed, and the old man, who usually felt offended, was so distressed that he bypassed the cotton sofa and sat on another leather sofa.

"Where's your dad? Why haven't you seen him all the time? Lao Ma wondered for a moment and suddenly asked.

"My dad went out to live last night, found a hotel outside, and rented a house today." Tsai Tsai was listening to the knock at the door, took the fast food and ate dinner on the table by himself. After eating, he went back to his room to rest for a while, ordered some eye drops, and continued to turn on the light and do his homework.

When Lao Ma learned that He Zhiyuan had gone out to live, he was dumbfounded, and he couldn't react for a while. I blame him for being so fragile, he can't do anything to the family, and he can't be scolded so thin-skinned, he is not happy to go out to live, and people in their forties and fifties don't know how to say hello. Now that the children are going to take exams and his wife is going to hold exhibitions, he is chic, and he will go out to live when he goes out.

The old horse raised his eyebrows and raised his eyes, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, the more angry he became, and he felt uncomfortable. The drunk old horse couldn't help but reflect on whether he had said something wrong, or he lost his temper for no reason, and he couldn't stand the unpleasant words, or he asked him to resign and urged him to find a job, and he was under pressure...... Lao Ma is worried that his arrogance and strength are like a sharp sword unintentionally, hurting others but not knowing it.

The drunken old man looked at this son-in-law in a long and focused manner, and all aspects were unsatisfactory, and the aggrieved and unhappy old man drank more and more. Drunk and hazy, suddenly, he seemed to remember Yangyang's fuss about the "new father" last night, could it be that Zhiyuan heard that he was leaving for this? Thinking of this, the old horse slapped his thigh in a daze, secretly thinking that it was not good-it must be for this.

The angry, annoyed and regretful old horse was even more unhappy and unhappy. Angry that he was wearing a jacket in front of a four-year-old child, annoyed that He Zhiyuan didn't ask him clearly in front of him, regretting that he had caused trouble to Gui Ying and this family again...... In order to dispel his sorrow, the old horse drank more and more, and soon fell asleep under the anesthesia of alcohol.

Instead of the old village chief drinking to dispel his sorrow and depression, he drank to offset regret and anesthetize his indelible old face.

At 10 o'clock in the evening, after completing a mock test paper, the boy opened the door and prepared to take a bath and sleep. Suddenly, I smelled a strong smell of wine wafting in, and when I got closer, my grandfather had already collapsed in his chair and fell asleep. As soon as I looked up, there was a rippling on the sofa not far away, half of his body was swimming in the air, Zheng Zai Zai hurried to open the rippling door and lamp without thinking, he wanted to take his sister to bed and sleep in the boy, as soon as he turned on the light, he was surprised to find that his sister was only a bed board on the bed, the boy rummaged around, found the mat and bed, stepped up to make the bed, and took his sister back to sleep after making the bed.

For the first time in my life, I made a bed for others, and my heart was full of a sense of accomplishment, although it was crumpled.

Looking down at his sleeping sister, the boy at this moment suddenly felt a little pity for this sister. Think about when I was so old, they lived in the dormitory assigned to my father by the school, my mother took care of him every second, my father studied in the morning and studied in the evening, and came to play with him whenever he was free, and as long as there were three meals in the morning and noon, as long as there was something he liked to eat, my father would send him a copy from the school cafeteria. At that time, I was undoubtedly the only one for my parents. But, what about such a big sister? Since the birth of my sister, my mother has always been busy, and there are many times when I can't see my mother like recently; Although Dad has been looking forward to taking care of her, there is a wicked brother who can't come over to distribute and violate Daddy's love for her.

Take care of his sister, and come over to clean up the wine bottle at his grandfather's feet. After making the bed for his grandfather, he woke him up, helped him back to his room to sleep, and covered him with a thin quilt. Taking care of this old one, the teenager was so tired that he sat alone in the living room, calculating when his mother would get off work and wondering when his father would come home.

Unable to resist worry and pity, Tsai Tsai dialed his father's phone, not daring to ask him about his status outside, and only truthfully reported his feelings about today's four exams. The father and son chatted for a long time about this, and the young man was relieved, because he judged from his father's tone that his father still loved this family. couldn't hold it back, he called his mother again, I don't know if it was convenient or not, after the phone was connected, sure enough, my mother was busy. He reported the situation at home in three or five sentences, reassuring his mother and reassuring himself. Hurriedly hung the antelope talk, and the young man who was heartbroken washed and went to sleep.

If he is the only one in the house, then he is alone and helpless in his heart; If there were only two people in the house, he and his sister would be worried and worried; But now that his grandfather is at home, he is natural and comfortable, and he can sleep with his head high at any time.

At first, he really thought that grandpa's snoring was very annoying and annoying, but at home without his parents, he unexpectedly felt that grandpa's snoring was actually what he was used to, natural and indispensable, and there was some cuteness, warmth and steadfastness in the wonderful and tactful snoring.
