CHAPTER XX

20

In the seventies and eighties of the last century, the Wu family built a courtyard for five families. When the house was built, only Mr. and Mrs. Wu Guocai and their five sons lived in it. Later, the five sons started a family one after another. The original family in the courtyard has given rise to several families. In the long-term residence, an inherent life pattern is naturally formed in the courtyardβ€”cultural literacy, moral character, public order and good customs, and living atmosphere...... Therefore, the people who come out of the courtyard, whether they live, work or deal with people, all reflect a kind of connotation, temperament and moral cultivation. Over the years, the people and families living in the courtyard have been interdependent and learn from each other's strengths, and the neighbors have never blushed, quarreled, quarreled, and treated each other in harmony. However, what happens in each family naturally affects the people who live in the compound. No, since Wu Yi and Wu Si talked about it, Wu Si is not only mysterious, but also more difficult to figure out. In the end, it was obvious to the people in the courtyard. Therefore, Wu Yi notified everyone to come together to solve Wu Si's problem.

Wu got off work and hurried to Wu Si's unit. The people who got off work walked out of the police station one after another, but Wu Si was nowhere to be seen. Wu Yi greeted the doorman and walked directly into the office. Wu Si was stunned when he saw Wu Yi, "Big brother." ”

"Is there anything else going on in the house?" Wu Yi asked.

"Nope." Wu Si hesitated to answer.

"Let's go, go out and talk." Wu Yi said: "For your business, my family is waiting for us. ”

Wu Si hesitated...... I still followed my eldest brother to the hotel.

The hotel is not big but very imposing, and the brothers sit in private rooms.

"Brother and sister-in-law." Wu Si greeted everyone when he entered the house.

"Come on, sit here." The two sisters-in-law greeted him.

After Wu Yi and Wu Si sat down, the dishes were also served. Wu Yi beckoned everyone to move the chopsticks and opened first. He said:

"The matter of the fourth brother can't be said at home, so as not to worry about my father and mother. A few days ago, the fourth brother told me about what happened in the unit, and it seems that I didn't get to the point. Today we have to solve the problem of the fourth brother and help him get out of the haze and go to the sun. ”

After Wu Yi finished speaking, Wu Si was so angry that he recounted what happened. Then, he changed his words and said what he had held back in his heart. "Even though I am an assistant police officer, I have done much more work than the work of the auxiliary police officer, and my achievements are there. Since they don't need me anymore, they have to talk in the bureau, how can they be allowed to assert themselves. I am the nail caught in their machination. Wu Si stopped his brother and sister-in-law with gestures. He continued: "If I don't do a good job or make a mess, I don't need them to say I'm leaving." They intrigue and make fun of me, which is simply a villain's act. No one can swallow this breath. Wu Si said almost in one breath.

The people at the table looked at each other as they listened to Wu Si's tough words. Everyone suddenly felt that Wu Si saw extremely simple things as so complex and changeable. It's not a big thing, and it's a very easy thing to solve, so that when he says this, it catches people off guard and can't interject. After a moment of silence, Wu Yi picked up his wine glass and said, "Come and drink." ”

He continued: "Fourth brother, what you said may sound reasonable, but I don't think you should think so. It is very dangerous to cling to fallacies. People cannot replace thinking with impulses, and they blindly think backwards. The best solution is to walk away, so why bother with it. People don't let us do it, we can only leave, and there are no conditions to speak of. As deputy commissioners and police station chiefs, they can exercise this right in their own right. Either way, it's not an exaggeration. ”

Wu Si listened to Wu Yi's impeccable and clear words, and his heart kept beating the drum, "Big brother is big brother." However, his expression was solemn, as if he ......

"Fourth brother, what about the eldest brother asking you." Wu Er used this sentence to inspire Wu Si.

"It's too bullying," Wu Si made his point of view clear, "It's too breathless." ”

"It seems that the words were spoken in vain." Wu Yi intends to take Wu Si.

"Let's drink and eat." Wu Er looked at the dull Wu Si, "The words of the eldest brother have been made very clear. What about regular employees, they can say no, they can do without it. Now that people won't let us do it, it's right to let go of the guys. ”

"Fourth brother," Ding Zandong said eagerly, "there are some things that are not transferred by human will. You yourself are caught between them, no matter how reasonable you are, you can't just go on, and you are the one who gets hurt in the end. ”

"People fight for a breath, that's right." Wu Er said: "However, you can tell what is the matter, your business is not something that can be fought for." ”

"Fourth brother, you should empathize." Ding Zandong said.

"Fourth brother, you must know that people nowadays don't play cards according to common sense," Wu San said: "Why bother, it's good to do it in another place." ”

"If you can't think about what is happening now, you will be a fool." Hong Hong said, "Didn't I tell you yet? If you want to do it, do it first, and let's go after you find out. Fourth brother, look at your sad face now. ”

"I ......" Wu Si wanted to speak and stopped.

"It's unreasonable now, and it wouldn't have happened if it had been reasonable. The fourth brother's matter is too insignificant, but you are a teacher and a crowd, and you don't put chopsticks when you see delicious food. Wu Er said sharply.

Wu Si just remained silent. He unhurriedly picked up the dishes.

"To put it bluntly, it was caused by the fourth brother and Liu Jia's love." Wu San said: "The purpose is to stink Director Liu and clear out the people related to Director Liu." ”

"People who don't do their right thing think about the whole person every day." Wu Er said indignantly: "That's their business, it shouldn't affect the innocent, the fourth brother recruited someone to provoke someone." ”

"The fourth brother is excellent in technology and second to none in terms of skills." Wu San said: "If a pacesetter doesn't do it, at least the bureau knows about it." ”

"How can the matter of rectifying people and engaging in conspiracy be put on the table." Wu Er said: "If it is made public, the fourth brother can go to the bureau to speak out, which not only exposes their misdeeds, but also protects himself." ”

"Fourth brother, don't you think you're looking for guilt? Everyone has discussed what is not a matter as a big matter. We don't know what to say to get you to let go of your misconceptions. Wu Yi said.

"I just can't swallow that." Wu Si interrupted everyone's words and said in a tone of unyielding.

"What a breath, what a big deal." Wu Er said.

"Men have ambitions in all directions, you have to listen to everyone." Ding Zandong said.

"You love your work, and at the same time you make achievements," Wu San said, "and that doesn't mean much." We must learn to adapt and leave if we are not allowed to do it. ”

"I can't swallow this breath at all." Wu Si still holds his own opinion.

"Listen, everyone, we talked for a long time, and he still said this. You're really bloody, and your nose is gone. Wu Er said: "Only now can I see that we still have such a tough brother." Everyone is in a hurry with you, but you don't repent. ”

"Fourth brother," Wu Yi said, "all ideas are unacceptable, today you have to give everyone an attitude, how can we make you change your mind and give up your thoughts." ”

Wu Si listened to everyone's words, and felt very uncomfortable. He looked at the group very unnaturally.

"At least not now." Wu Si's astonishing words shocked the people at the table, and at the same time, it was also his delaying tactic, "They haven't told me yet." ”

"You don't hit the south wall and don't look back," Wu Er raised his voice, "I can't listen to what I say, it's really a ghost, and the poisonous fire attacks the heart." Do you really want to fight with them, you can't live or die? ”

Wu Er said things that shouldn't have been said. However, as soon as his words fell, everyone was shocked. So, everyone set their sights on Wu Si. Wu Si's psychological turmoil was ups and downs, and it was difficult to roll over. The second brother's words were exactly what he had recurred over the years, and this lingering phenomenon caused him to spend many sleepless nights...... However, Wu Si's pretended calm expression still existed on his face.

Wu Er picked up his wine glass and squatted on the table, "Drink." ”

Wu Si also drank it all with everyone. Then he hurriedly stood up and filled everyone with wine.

"As the old saying goes, the hatred of killing your father and the hatred of taking your wife can you sacrifice yourself and take revenge."

Although Wu Yi observed Wu Si after Wu Er's reckless words; Although Wu Si did not show any unusual emotions. But Wu Yi knew that Wu Si's heart was not calm. If you are shocked like this, you may be able to change Wu Si's mind, and maybe...... What was not accurate before, maybe there is an answer because of this? Therefore, Wu Yi directly picked out the words.

"People are not so stupid now, it is not easy to be a person, and you have to think twice before you do something. Fourth brother, life is precious, change places and reshape yourself, you can still be a sunny young man. ”

"Fourth brother," Wu San said, "If you have to think about it, if you want to open it, it's fine." ”

"Everyone has negative people who fight back and forth at work and end up being friends, even close friends. Don't take this little thing to heart, don't think crookedly, we all look forward to your change of heart. Wu Yi said.

"Fourth brother, you see, even millions of people who have been deceived by others will not be as narrow-minded as you. Take a step back and open the sky. Ding Zandong said: "Fourth brother, wake up!" ”

Ding Zandong's amiable tone eased the angry, irritable, nervous, and dull atmosphere on the table.

"Does Liu Jia know?" Hong Hong asked.

"Can't let her know." Wu Si hurriedly said.

"Better let her know." Wu Yi said.

"No," Wu Si said simply: "It will affect her future, I am a victim and I can't let her ...... anymore"

"You're so wrong." Wu Yi said: "Believe in the power of love. She knows, she must think the same as us, maybe you will be enlightened. ”

Wu Si just shook his head.

The people at the table looked at Wu Si, who was sad and miserable, and they didn't know what to say.

"I'll give you a practical example," Facing his younger brother who couldn't open his mind, Wu Er had no choice but to divert the conversation. "A deputy director of our city, with two million from the bureau, went to Russia...... Cities in the Far East to pick up goods. Because of the language barrier, a female translator of about 30 was hired from the provincial capital. After the two of them passed, they worked there for more than four months, and finally returned to Jiangcheng empty-handed. Not only was the goods not delivered, but the deputy director was also injured. With bandages around his arms and neck, he wept bitterly and reported to the deputy mayor and bureau leaders: several gangsters armed with guys broke into the house and robbed them. The gangsters knocked them unconscious and looted their money. After hearing this, the leaders hospitalized the deputy director. And that's the end of it. ”

"Are you hospitalized?" Wu San asked curiously.

"He's stupid, don't look at the bandage is scary, in fact, it's just a self-scratch (maybe, just wrap it up to deceive the leader.) If you are hospitalized, you will not be exposed. Wu Er continued: "Fourth brother, do you understand? This happened just a year ago, and two million is not a small number. You should know this. So, don't fight in case of trouble, just let go. ”

In fact, Wu Si didn't have the ears to listen at all, he just looked at everyone's attitudes and expressions.

"I'll tell you one more thing." Wu San said: "There is a deputy mayor in our city, who was born in the countryside to drive cars. At that time, he was very capable and could shout two voices, so he asked the leaders of the city to promote him, and within a few years, he was promoted to the deputy city level. However, he was later demoted. When he came down, he made a condition to the city to arrange for his two children, and the city leaders agreed. As a result, both of them were arranged to work in the bureau. ”

"All of them are matters of principle, and they are all insurmountable matters, that is, someone dares to do it and does it with peace of mind." Ding Zandong said: "Fourth brother, let's not get out of this troubled water, hurry up and start a new life." ”

"Fourth brother, don't let down everyone's affection for you." Wu San said: "Brother and sister-in-law, everyone is talking about dry mouths, come and drink wine to moisten your throat, and then you have to continue to help." ”

Wu Si also laughed with everyone. Everyone put down their wine glasses in silence, thinking about what Wu Si said before and after. At the same time, I feel that my words have become a bamboo basket to draw water?

"For my sake, let my brother and sister-in-law bother." Wu Si finally broke this silent scene. He stood up and said, "They are engaged in a power struggle, and they should not use me." ”

"I can see that you are hopeless." Wu Er said angrily: "You still have this face when you say 1,000 to 10,000." ”

"Second brother......" Wu Si saw that Wu Er was really angry.

"It seems that it was our fault tonight, and we shouldn't have left you alone at all." Wu Yi said as the hand holding the cup was shaking.

"Big brother......" Wu Si was ashamed to stop talking.

"It used to be of one heart and one mind, but now it seems to be a centrifugal detachment," Hong Hong said, "Is it really ......?" she couldn't go on.

"I'm sorry for bothering my brother and sister-in-law." Wu Si prayed.

"Excuse me, did it work?" Wu Er said angrily.

A kind of concept, a kind of thought, through repeated research, suffering, and struggle, gradually establishes the viewpoint of putting the cart before the horse. Once this concept is formed, it is difficult to change it, because it has already been deeply imprinted in his thoughts. At the same time, willfulness is matched with barbarism and this unhealthy thought, forming a new dominant idea, which in turn evolves intellectually and morally as his goal. In this way, Wu Si is undergoing an unprecedented transformation. The emergence of this phenomenon has made it unpredictable for the brothers and their families.

"From the actions and conversations of the fourth brother," Wu Yi advised very pertinently, "there is an indescribable and unclear potential danger in it, which is unavoidable and dangerous at the same time. ”

Wu Si looked at his brother and sister-in-law with a serious expression, and everyone also looked at Wu Si's reaction. "Fourth brother," Wu said repeatedly, "Perhaps, in the history of the Wu family, there will never be such an unreasonable person as you again." is a stubborn stone, and it will be warmed by the hearts of brothers and sisters. In my life, I have never seen such an unenlightened person. ”

Wu Si knew in his heart that the eldest brother had raised things to a high level to understand. I did get dizzy today. Alas, what can be done? He had to deal with the past as soon as possible.

"My brother and sister-in-law are all for my good." Wu Si reluctantly said, "Worry about me, I listen to my brother and sister-in-law." ”

People finally heard the heartwarming words from Wu Si's words and deeds. As a result, smiles finally bloomed on people's faces, and everyone couldn't help but raise their glasses.

"Our Wu family has a family tree and family motto, which proves that there are people who have done great things in the history of the Wu family. Therefore, our words and deeds, every move must be worthy of our ancestors. Wu Yi said passionately: "Our five brothers have inherited the genes of their parents, whether they are children or looks. Therefore, there are outstanding capable beauties such as Ding Zandong, Hong Hong, and Liu Jia. So, we have to live well and cherish every day. Because life is short, the fourth brother must handle things well. When you are in trouble, think more about the words of your brother and sister-in-law. We think that your business is not a matter at all, but it makes you tired. Don't let this little thing sway us forward. Believe that life is good. ”

"Big brother's words are a milestone in life and our motto." Wu Si was excited, and picked up his wine glass, "Thank you brother and sister-in-law, and at the same time be ashamed of my brother and sister-in-law, for bothering you." Cheers everyone. ”

Although external causes are the conditions for change, internal causes are the root of change. But everyone did their best to make the pros and cons clear. I believe that Wu Si will always have some understanding.

With the food fried for their parents, they left the restaurant. Because Wu Er had just gone upstairs, they said goodbye to each other at the door of the hotel. Wu Er and Hong Hong patted Wu Si's shoulder in a friendly manner.

At the same time, Wu Si also paid tribute to the second brother and sister-in-law.

Wu Yi and his wife, Wu San and Wu Si walked home side by side.
