Chapter 1323 - Compare with Yesterday's Self
"You're lying."
The dumplings are directly dismantled from the table of the rice balls.
"Fourth brother, I didn't lie, don't wronged me!"
Tang Yuan defended himself.
"You don't have a smile on your face, but your eyes are smiling, and I can see it clearly."
Hearing the words of the dumplings, Tang Yuan immediately lowered his face: "Fourth brother, shouldn't we be plastic brothers?" β
Hearing this, the expression on Tuanzi's delicate and fair face was cool: "You say yes, right?" β
On the side, Ming Han couldn't hold back his laughter, he said, "Tangyuan, are you deflated?!" Ha ha! β
Jiang Li, Mingwei and Xiaoguoguo also laughed, as for Mingrui, although he didn't laugh, the curvature of the corners of his lips should not be too obvious.
"You're all laughing at me, aren't you bullying me?"
Seeing everyone in the family laughing, Tang Yuan felt particularly faceless, so he pretended to be aggrieved and said, "Still laughing? You're going to lose me! β
"There's me!"
Tuanzi glanced at the rice balls, and his little expression was as calm as ever.
"Fourth brother! Don't think that if you look the same as me, you can replace my little rice balls in the family! Hum!
Tang Yuan said, clasped his arms in his hands, snorted arrogantly, and don't turn his head to look at the dumplings.
"I'm older than you, and you look the same as me."
The little milk cavity of the dumplings did not fluctuate in the slightest, but it sounded as cute as ever.
"Wrong!"
Tang Yuan "hummed" again, and he said in a milky voice: "Everyone says that you and I are a miniature version of Dad, which means that you and I look the same as Dad, don't take advantage of me." β
Dango: "I'm your brother." The implication is that there is nothing wrong with the younger brother being like the elder brother.
Tang Yuan was choked and didn't make a sound for a long time.
Looking at his aggrieved appearance, Jiang Li and the others laughed again.
β¦β¦
In the blink of an eye, the day of receiving the notice came, Ming Rui had no accident and won the first place in the grade again, and Ming Han also kept his first place in the grade.
"I'm still third."
Sitting in the car going home, Mingwei glanced at the co-pilot, and seeing that Mingrui didn't turn around, she couldn't help glaring at Minghan: "Don't you know to let me order?" β
Minghan sat next to Mingwei, and the two sat in the back seat together, he heard what Mingwei said, and raised his eyebrows: "How to let it?" Could it be that you want me to deliberately make a mistake, or I can do it but pretend I can't? β
ββ¦β¦β
Mingwei was stunned, not knowing how to answer.
"The exam is about strength, and you answer the wrong question and lose points, which means that you have not thoroughly understood the knowledge points contained in that question, it is your own problem, what does it have to do with me?"
His eyes fell on Mingwei, and Minghan said: "If I do what I said earlier, it is tantamount to helping you cheat in disguise, is this what you want?" β
"Are you serious with me?"
Mingwei narrowed her eyes, and seeing this, Minghan coughed lightly twice, with a natural expression: "Do I have it?" β
"Do you know for yourself?"
Mingwei said, casually pinched Minghan's arm next to her, and then said: "I'm just joking with you, but you think of me crookedly, second brother, are you worthy of your sister like this?" β
"Oops! It hurts! β
Ming Han grinned, rubbing the place where Ming Wei had just pinched and hurt, and he said, "It's really ruthless!" β
"If you react faster, I'll probably believe it."
pretended to be like, obviously at the moment she was pinched by her, there was no reaction, and when she withdrew her hand, she pretended to rub the position she pinched and cried out in pain, should she say: The reflex arc is really long enough!
The bodyguard was driving the car, a person who was originally very serious, because he heard Minghan Mingwei's conversation, the corners of his mouth twitched imperceptibly, not to mention what kind of mood Rui was in now.
Well, he was stupid by Minghan, no, he didn't look back, but sent a sentence: "Luo Minghan, you are so naΓ―ve!" β
Mingwei chuckled: "Second brother, did you hear that?" Big brother says you're naΓ―ve! β
"Aren't all of you responsible?!"
Glancing at Mingwei, Minghan said: "Childish is naΓ―ve, like this, I am more loved by our mother." β
Isn't it naΓ―ve that he hasn't grown up, so what does it matter if he sells cuteness to his mother from time to time?
"I don't carry this pot."
Mingwei moved her body, widened the distance between her and Minghan, and deliberately said with disgust: "I'm naΓ―ve but I don't know it, second brother, I'm afraid you don't have something wrong with your brain, right?" β
"You're saying I'm sick in the head?"
This time it was Ming Han's turn to squint his eyes, and he looked at Ming Wei with a dangerous gaze.
"Second brother, your comprehension skills are really poor! There are obviously three words in my sentence, 'I'm afraid not', but I don't use the affirmative sentence! β
Mingwei's eyes were strange, and she was so happy that she gave advice seriously: "Since you think you have a brain disease, second brother, go back and let your mother take you to the hospital to have a look, don't delay, one day you will be sent to the third hospital and locked up." β
Minghan grinded his teeth: "Luo Mingwei, do you think I'm a neurotic?" Or do you want to put me in the third hospital one day as if I was a psychopath? β
"Yikes!"
Ming Wei showed an expression of amazement: "Your imagination is so rich!" They all hooked themselves up with neuropathy, haha! β
"Luo Mingwei, our mother also said that my mouth is poisonous, in my opinion, your mouth is much more poisonous than mine, look back and see who dares to marry you."
In response to Ming Han's words, Ming Wei reacted lightly: "Why do I want a man to marry me, can't I marry a man home?" Or, isn't it fragrant for me to be alone? β
The brothers and sisters fought happily with each other, and until they entered the house, they didn't tell a winner.
"Mom!"
"Huh?"
"Your baby girl has taken the third place in the exam, I'm so sad!"
"It's okay, it's already good to be aggressive, and your third place is not how bad you are, it's when you're working hard, the first and second places in front of you are also working hard, just look at the opening point."
"The first place is my second brother, and the second place is Xi Jingyu, the two of them are like binding the first and second places for a long time, and they don't give others a chance to sit in those two positions."
Jiang Li listened to Mingwei's complaint, the smile in her eyes almost overflowed, and she asked, "You didn't look at your academic performance?" β
"Looked."
Mingwei replied crisply.
"Is there anything wrong with the transcript? For example, compared with the total score and the scores of each subject last time, have you improved or not been able to return this time? β
Jiang Li asked with a smile.
Mingwei tilted her head and thought about it, and responded: "The total score is eight points more than the last time, and the results of individual subjects have improved." β
"Got it?"
Jiang Li asked again.
ββ¦β¦β
Mingwei's eyes were confused, what should she understand?
"Silly girl, your academic performance has improved, which means that you have defeated the one you in the last exam, are you happy?"
"Hmm."
"If you're happy, why complain?"
ββ¦β¦β
"Weiwei, we have to do our best, we have to compare ourselves with ourselves, not with others, so that we will become open-minded, we will clearly know whether we have made progress, so as to know what to do next. But if you blindly compare with others, after a long time, you will feel tired, you will be dissatisfied, negative emotions will gradually increase, sooner or later crush yourself, ignore your own efforts and dedication, ignore that you have actually improved, and you are not worse than others, do you think this is good? β
"Not good."
"So what are you going to do in the future?"
"Compared to yesterday's self."
"Good. Are you feeling better now? β
"Hmm."
"My girl is so smart!"
Rubbing Mingwei's head, Jiang Li smiled gently: "Okay, go back to your room and pack your luggage, let's leave for our hometown in three days." β
"I'll clean it up."
Mingwei immediately smiled and ran to the room where she lived.
Due to the large area of the courtyard house on this side of Mizuki University and the large number of rooms, there is no doubt that the children of all sizes in the family have their own rooms.
Of course, there is a room for Ron.
After all, every once in a while, Ron would also go to live in the courtyard and connect with his older siblings and younger siblings.
β¦β¦
Following.
After lunch, Jiang Li and the chef made a lot of snacks in the kitchen, and in the middle of the afternoon, she packed a lot of the prepared snacks, and then put them in a travel bag, packed a few sets of clothes for Luo Yanqing, and set off for the research institute.
"Mom's car is driving away!"
At the gate of the courtyard, Guo Guo blinked her eyes and looked at Jiang Li's car driving into the distance, she actually wanted to follow her mother to visit her father, but her sister shook her head at him and signaled her not to follow her mother, why is this?
"Hmm."
Mingwei nodded in response, and then she said, "Let's go, it's cold outside, let's hurry into the house to warm up." β
Picking up Guoguo, Mingwei turned around and entered the courtyard.
Mingrui Minghan followed with the dumplings.
Fu Ma and Ah Xiang were the last to enter the courtyard.
"Sister, why don't you let me go with my mother? Guoguo dreams of seeing her father! β
When the living room has a heating stove, the temperature inside is significantly different from that outside.
"My sister knows that you miss your father, and she also knows that the dumplings and the eldest brother and the second brother, and my sister herself also misses my father very much, but the person Dad wants to see the most must be my mother, if we go with us, it will affect my parents."
"Guoguo doesn't understand."
"Little fool!"
This is the sound of rice balls.
"Fifth brother is bad, I'm not a little fool!"
Guoguo retorted with a milky voice.
Tang Yuan: "Luo Mingxi, if we follow, how can my father kiss my mother?" β
Guoguo: "Just kiss like that!" β
Tang Yuan: "What is that?" β
Guoguo: "The fifth brother is stupid, just like we kiss our mother, our mother kisses us, doesn't my father even know this?" β
Tang Yuan: "Dad will be embarrassed?" β
Guoguo: "Why? β
Tang Yuan: "Because we are by our side to make light bulbs." β
Tilting his head and thinking about it, Guoguo said in a milky voice: "The light bulb is bright, isn't it good to light my parents?" β
Tang Yuan asked, "It's not good." Dad would be embarrassed, now you get the idea, right? β
"I seem to get it!"
Guoguo nodded her little head thoughtfully, and she said, "Dad is thin-skinned and wants to kiss Mom, but because we are around, he is embarrassed to ask Mom for a kiss like us children, right?" β
"Yes, that's it."
The rice balls dot the little head.
"Well, it's good that we didn't make light bulbs so Dad won't be embarrassed!"
Guoguo said and asked Tuanzi: "Fourth brother, am I right?" β
"Hmm."
Dango nodded solemnly.
Guoguo asked Mingrui and Minghan again: "Big brother and second brother, what do you say?" β
"That's right, like you said, if we go with my mother, my father is thin-skinned and wants to kiss my mother or ask my mother for a kiss, he will definitely not be able to do it." Minghan said with a smile, feeling that the fruit and dumplings were really cute.
Mingrui: "You're right. β
Growing up so big, Ming Rui can see it more clearly than anyone else, in Luo Yanqing's eyes, there is only Jiang Li, and as for the child, it is definitely superfluous.
Even if it is three small ones, in the eyes of the old father, they are the same as the three of them, they are not very pleasing!
felt that their existence affected him and their mother to show affection.
Jiang Li is not driving very fast, after all, there is no need to hurry, just drive at a normal speed.
Therefore, when the car drove into the institute, there was less than an hour left before the end of work.
After taking out the contents of the bag and putting them away, Jiang Li went to Director Song's office and gave the godfather some snacks and a black mid-length down jacket.
"Li Bao! How did you get there? It's so cold, how good is it to freeze! β
Hearing the knock on the door, Director Song casually said "Come in", and when the office door was pushed open, he looked at Jiang Li when he raised his eyes, he immediately showed surprise, but his eyes were full of distress.
"I'll come to see you and Luo Yanqing."
Jiang Li smiled and put the brown paper bag containing the snacks on the coffee table, then took out the down jacket from another packaging bag, and asked, "Isn't this busy?" β
"Not busy."
Director Song shook his head.
"Then try this down jacket, I bought one for you and Luo Yanqing."
Unzipping the down jacket, Jiang Li looked at Director Song and said, "The quality of this down jacket is very good, and it is very warm to wear." β
"In the past few years, you have bought me and your godmother clothes, and you have bought us two down jackets alone, your godfather and my clothes are now unwearable, you are good, you bought a down jacket this year, what to do with this money?!"
Director Song got up quite helplessly, he walked out from behind the desk, and with Jiang Li's help, put on the down jacket.
The length and size are suitable.
"It fits perfectly."
Jiang Li's eyes were full of smiles.
"Hmm."
Director Song nodded.
took off the down jacket and handed it to Jiang Li, Director Song said: "I basically sit in the office every day, and I don't need to wear any down jacket at all. β
"Don't you go to the cafeteria to eat? Don't go to other office buildings? β
Jiang Li folded the down jacket and turned it back to the bag, she said with a smile: "Although it has not snowed so far this year, the temperature is lower than in previous years, dry and cold, and it is windy, so you can't wear a warm one." β
"Okay, good, godfather listens to you, as long as you go out, dress warm."
Director Song said with a loving look in his eyes, and then asked, "You came here suddenly, is there something wrong?" β
"Hmm."
Jiang Li nodded, she said: "I'm busy, Luo Yanqing doesn't have time to take a vacation, I plan to take the children back to my hometown for the New Year, and it just so happens that the family is going to celebrate my grandfather's birthday, and I can go back early, and I can also help with something." β
"The old man's birthday is a happy event and a big event, and your granddaughter has to go back."
Director Song said: "Yan Qing probably won't have time to rest this Spring Festival, otherwise, it would be better to have him go back to your hometown with him." β
"I know he's busy."
Jiang Li smiled and asked, "Did Luo Yanqing eat on time?" β
"Don't worry, I'll help you keep an eye on it, that kid doesn't go to the cafeteria to eat, I'll personally send him over, watch him finish eating, stare at him and close his eyes and rest for half an hour before he is allowed to return to work."
"You didn't stay up late, did you?"
ββ¦β¦ Occasionally, but not overnight. β
"The body is the capital of the revolution, and if you tire yourself down, you can't talk about contributing to the country."
"That's it."
Director Song nodded in agreement.
β¦β¦
As soon as the time to get off work came, Director Song helped Jiang Li call Luo Yanqing's project research team, and learned that his daughter-in-law had come to the office, and Luo Yanqing rarely ordered his subordinates to finish today's work.
He Wei and other members of the project team were all happy, and they all thought that it was Jiang Li who came to visit Luo Yanqing in the office, otherwise, their workaholic Luo Team Leader would never have left work so early.
After Luo Yanqing left, He Wei asked his colleague Yang Fan: "Xiao Yang, who called the team leader?" β
"Director."
Yang Fan was relatively close to the landline, and when he heard the bell ringing, he picked up the microphone and heard Director Song's voice coming from inside, so He Wei asked at this moment, and he naturally didn't hide it.
"Did the director say that Comrade Jiang is here and asked our team leader to get off work quickly?"
He Wei's eyes were full of gossip.
Yang Fan: "I don't know, the director just said that he wanted our team leader to answer the phone." "This researcher Yang has been working in the institute for less than three years, he is a young man, but his work ability is quite good, which is valued by Luo Yanqing.
He Wei: "I guess eighty percent is the team leader's lover, Comrade Jiang is here, otherwise, our team leader will not give us work now." β
Yang Fan: "That makes sense. β
Another researcher chimed in: "It does make sense, in the past, as long as Comrade Jiang came to the institute, the team leader would also leave work on time. β
Seeing Wen Siyuan walking towards the door, He Wei and the other researchers who had not yet left said hello, and followed Wen Siyuan: "Why don't you call me?" β
"You and Xiao Yang, they're talking."
Wen Siyuan replied casually.
"Then you can call me out!"
The two walked side by side, and He Wei said: "With such an iron relationship between the two of us, don't call me for dinner, won't your conscience hurt?" β
"No, it won't."
Wen Siyuan's answer was not dragged.
"Lao Wen, you...... You hurt me! β
He Wei deliberately grimaced: "How can this be?" β
"Can you please stop being so skinny with me?"
Wen Siyuan looked at He Wei, and he showed a headache: "I really don't have the heart to talk to you." β
Hearing this, He Wei was silent, and after a moment, he said, "How long has it been since this happened, and you haven't let it go?" β
Wen Siyuan knew what He Wei was referring to, but he didn't want to say more.
He Wei: "Isn't it just women, I don't think it's difficult to find another one on your terms." β
To be honest, He Wei never thought that Wen Siyuan would divorce again, after all, divorce is not a good thing, this divorce is already very face-hurting, who will have nothing to do, regardless of their own face, and choose to divorce twice?
But it was such a coincidence that there was such an example of Wen Siyuan beside him.
originally had a good life, but suddenly divorced his wife Song Ning, and married a little girl later, which made many people envious, what was the result? It's the step of divorce again.
He Wei didn't know what Wen Siyuan thought, he couldn't see through it anyway.
Especially when Wen Siyuan chose to divorce Song Ning, He Wei felt that Wen Siyuan's brain was in water, and he had to end the marriage between the two with a good wife and mother-type woman.
However, although they have a good relationship, the divorce is Wen Siyuan's private matter, as a colleague and friend, he has persuaded him, but the other party can't listen to it.
Recalling what he said when he persuaded Wen Siyuan, He Wei couldn't help but fall silent.
Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and there may be some things that he doesn't know, so Wen Siyuan will choose to divorce again and again.
In order to avoid his friend having to do it, He Wei decided not to mention the topics that Wen Siyuan didn't want to talk about.
"I didn't want to look for it again."
Wen Siyuan's voice couldn't hear the emotion: "One person, one life, I am not as lucky as the team leader, I can marry a good woman like Comrade Jiang who takes care of her family and cares about her husband and children, since marriage is already a burden for me, it is not bad for me to be single for the rest of my life." β
He Wei: "Comrade Jiang is good, but it's hard to find such a good woman." β
"It's hard to find, that's why I said I'm not as lucky as the team leader." Wen Siyuan smiled bitterly: "I'm not afraid of your jokes, I regret divorcing Song Ning, but I will be like eating lard and being blinded by my heart, listening to my mother's two words, I don't care about insisting on divorce, ignoring Song Ning's reluctance to the child, and went through the divorce procedures with her." β
He Wei comforted: "Marriage is not a matter of one person, your feelings are not harmonious, or there are other contradictions, so that you have to choose divorce, don't blame yourself." β
Wen Siyuan shook his head: "No, it's not emotional discord between me and Song Ning, and there is no contradiction, it's my fault, it's my fault, I don't want to live with Song Ning, she is not wrong at all, it's a pity...... It's just a pity that I realized my mistake too late! Later, when I married Su Man, I also didn't know people clearly, which caused the marriage to break down again, and I sometimes can't help but think that this second marriage died unexpectedly, maybe the first marriage gave me punishment. β
"You're thinking too much, aren't you! Now it's a new society, we can't engage in any feudal superstition! β
Patting Wen Siyuan's shoulder, He Wei smiled: "Troubles will always pass, just like there may not be a rainbow after the wind and rain, but it must be dawn after walking through the night." β
This chicken soup made Wen Siyuan stunned involuntarily, and after a while, he glanced at He Wei and said, "What if you can't go through this dark night?" β
"Lao Wen, you're a bit of a lever!"
He Wei laughed and snorted.
Wen Siyuan: "But I still want to thank you, thinking about Fa'er to comfort me, it's hard work." β
He Wei's eyebrows rose and said with a smile: "Haven't you seen the outside?!" We're like brothers, and I can't watch you sullen all day long. β
The two chatted and walked to the accommodation building, and saw Luo Yanqing walking out of the building with a lunch box in one hand and Jiang Li in the other.
After saying hello to Luo Yanqing first, He Wei moved his gaze to Jiang Li: "Comrade Jiang is here?!" β
Hearing this, Jiang Li smiled and nodded "um".
Wen Siyuan nodded at Jiang Li, Jiang Li also nodded at each other, and the two said hello.
"Is it cold?"
After Wen Siyuan and the two entered the dormitory building, Luo Yanqing stuffed the hand holding Jiang Li into his coat pocket: "Why don't you go back to the dormitory and wait?" β
"No, you don't."
Jiang Li shook her head, a smile lingering in her clear and soft eyes: "I want to go with you." β
Then catch the insects...
