When Xiaoli left the table, Fang Wei saw her in tears, he was a little worried, he got up and was about to go out, but was stopped by his mother-in-law and said; "Xiaowei, don't go out, you sit down and listen to me, you can't mention it at home, your father, it's uncomfortable to mention her, you let her calm down, stay alone for a while, don't interfere with her."

Fang Wei had no choice but to sit down and said; "Mom, I'm in front of Xiaoli, as long as I mention my father, she will immediately cry, I am sad with me, and since then, I don't dare to mention my father again."

The mother-in-law sighed and said; "Alas, just now I inadvertently had an extra mouthful, which made her sad, and I also felt uncomfortable, in our hearts, when will this hurdle pass."

Fang Wei didn't know how to answer, hesitated for a while, and said; "Mom, I have an idea, I don't know if I should say it or not?"

The mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law and said; "In front of my mother, if there is anything you can't say, you can say it as you want, don't have any worries."

Fang Wei said; "Mom, why don't we move in, Xiaoli bought a house in the city, live for a while, it's very lively there, if you get bored of living, we'll move back, I don't know if you're willing?"

Xiaoli had come in silently, and said after sitting down; "Mom, what Fang Wei said is right, if you agree, we will go over to live, you don't have to bring anything, at most take a few pieces, change of clothes, when you want to come back to live, when you want to come back, when you come back, anyway, it's not too far away, at most an hour, it's very convenient, do you think it's good?"

The mother hesitated for a moment and said; "I think it's better to forget it, I don't want to go to live with you, go upstairs and downstairs, it's inconvenient, I'm used to living here, the neighbors are familiar with it, chatting and talking, and there are places to go, I live here, I don't go there."

Fang Wei said; "Okay, just follow your mother's wishes, as long as you are always happy, Xiaoli and I will be happy."

Xiaoli said; "Mom, we've had dinner, I'll go out for a walk with you, okay?"

Mother said; "Alright, let's go now."

Fang Wei stood up and said; "You all went out, I stayed at home alone, it's boring, I'll go out with you and walk with my mother."

They walked out into the street, with a daughter on one side and a son-in-law on the other, and the mother walked in the middle, and walked slowly and leisurely, and walked some distance to the nearby park, attracting the envious eyes of many old people who were not accompanied by their children.

They walked over to a bench, and Xiaoli helped her mother to sit down, and said; "Mom, you have walked a long way and need to rest for a while, you see all around here, there are old men and old ladies, some uncles and aunts, they can't even walk on the road, and they are still insisting on exercising, which is dangerous enough, and their children can't accompany them, aren't you afraid that something will happen to your parents?"

Mother said with a smile; "Today's young people are under so much pressure in life, and they are working hard, how can they have time to accompany their parents, or my daughter's filial piety."

Xiaoli hugged her mother and said with a smile; "Mom, I'm not praising myself, I don't mean that at all, I see those old people, they are incapacitated, no one is with them, I just feel strange and pitiful, in case I fall, what can I do?"

Fang Wei laughed, looked at Xiaoli, and said; "You don't have to explain it to your mother, you're just complimenting yourself, aren't you? It's really a bit bit, Lao Wang sells melons, and he sells himself and boasts. ”

Xiaoli glanced at him and said; "You're playing poor again, Mom understands me, you don't intervene here, I'm not as vulgar as you think."

The mother glared at her daughter and said; "You kid, your speech is becoming more and more impertinent, thanks to Xiaofang's lack of caution, if it is someone else, I have to quarrel with you."

Xiaoli began to be coquettish in front of her mother, twisted her body and said; "Mom, you're too partial, you talk to him, not me, aren't I my own daughter?"

The mother put her arms around her daughter and said with a smile; "Okay, okay, mom to my baby girl, okay, don't be hypocritical."

Fang Wei took over and said; "Xiaoli, I haven't heard you talk about your partnership recently, what's going on now? How did you deal with it? ”

Xiao Li glared at him, and glanced at him again, Fang Wei immediately understood, what she meant, these words should not be, said in front of his mother, he quickly turned his face away.

Xiaoli thought to herself, since Fang Wei had already said it, he had to explain it somewhat, so she said; "Fang Wei, our business is very good, there is nothing to worry about, but I haven't been to the company for a long time, and when I am busy with this period, I will take time to take a look."

The mother asked her daughter; "I haven't seen Fengyi for a long time, she must be very busy, thanks to the support of others, the business is doing so well, you have to thank people, if you see her, say hello on my behalf."

Xiaoli said; "Mom, I know, if I see her, I will definitely say hello to you."

The mother felt that the old people in the vicinity, fewer and fewer, gradually dispersed, and it was estimated that it was very late, she took her daughter's shoulder, stood up, and said; "They're all gone, let's go back too, you need to rest early, and you have to go to work tomorrow."

Xiaoli took her mother's arm, walked out of the park, and came to the street, a gust of wind blew, she felt a little cold, she was smart, snuggled up to her mother, and walked in the direction of home.

When they returned home, Xiaoli beckoned her mother to sleep, and she returned to her bedroom, where she saw Fang Wei sitting at the table, concentrating on reading, Xiaoli quietly walked behind him, put her hands on his shoulders, and said; "Fang Wei, I don't want my mother to know about my business, whether it's good or bad, so that she doesn't worry about me, I've told you many times, how can you forget, if I hadn't given you a look just now, you would have almost leaked your mouth, if my mother knew, there was a gap between my girlfriends, she would be anxious and sad, Mom's temper, you don't understand."

Fang Wei raised his arm, grabbed Xiaoli's hand on his shoulder, and said; "I'm sorry! Blame me for talking too much, I really forgot what you said, tonight, by no means on purpose, and I want you to understand. ”

Xiaoli said softly; "It's okay, I won't blame you, it's all over, we can say anything in private, but we can't let my mother know, don't mention it again, just pay attention to it in the future."

Fang Wei said; "Xiaoli, there is no one else now, just the two of us, I ask you, you have not been going to the company, this is not a way, the two of you, sooner or later there will be a showdown, I think it is better to have a showdown sooner rather than later, the sooner the better, the time drags on too long, I'm afraid the night is long and dreamy, I have a hunch, I don't know if it's right, I still need to remind you, you can't listen to one side, but also listen to what your girlfriends say, you two had better talk face-to-face, after all, you have been friends for many years, so good as a person, if you have anything to say, you can't put it in the open, Even if you quarrel, it's better than hiding in your heart, it's very difficult to make a true friend, it's easy to lose a friend, that is, a matter of one or two sentences, as long as there is a gap in your heart, it will deepen misunderstanding, contradictions are easy to produce, things that could have been said clearly, as long as the two have a mustard, no matter how you explain, the other party can't listen, the reason why I say this is that I am afraid that you will get into the horns, see the problem and deviate, it is easy to go into the misunderstanding, and there will be bad consequences, which is ultimately good or bad, You have to weigh it beforehand, what do you think? ”

Xiaoli said; "Partnership, I originally thought it was too easy, only considering the two of us, there would never be any contradictions, but I didn't take into account that outsiders would get involved and stir up the relationship between us, and it was for this reason that I fell in love with those villains. This society is too complicated, and it is not too much to describe it as terrifying, it makes me physically and mentally exhausted, and I really want to give up business. ”

Fang Wei said; "Xiaoli, then again, human nature has weaknesses, everyone has selfishness, this is natural, and it is also a natural law, this is normal, and there is no need to blame, the key point is to see how you grasp it, how to use these weaknesses, and turn it into strengths, which requires a lot of effort, not ordinary people can do it. No matter how good it sounded when the partnership was made, how many oaths were made, how many guarantees were made, the final value is still interests, but also depends on their own efforts and returns, whether they can be proportional, this is a factor that should also be taken into account, naturally it is inevitable that there are some gossip, there are also people with bad intentions, deliberately provoked from it, now people are very realistic, this is caused by the social environment, no one can stay out of the matter, we live in, contradictions and confusion, between interests and friendship, these are very critical, but, It is not possible to judge because of this, a person's good or bad, right or wrong, if you can say so, in practice, it is not easy, and mistakes will inevitably occur. ”

Xiaoli felt that Fang Wei's words were reasonable, she blinked her eyes and said; "A person's intelligence, can not be innate, is to go through a lot of things, accumulated lessons and experience, superimposed, will have something extraordinary, blame me, since I was a child by the traditional education, my parents want me to grow up, be a kind person, since graduating from college, work and business are smooth, there is less vigilance, to sum up, or too little social experience, but also some too simple, this is also related to pampering, some things, too simple, always think that in society, there are many good people, few bad people, The heart is also too soft, easy to trust people, and when you see someone in need, you always want to reach out to help, but you hurt yourself. ”

Fang Wei looked at Xiaoli and said; "Things can't be generalized, you can't listen to the wind is rain, the truth of being a man, everyone understands, under the pressure of life, it is easy to lose reason, and there is no principle, and people who lose moral restraint will have no bottom line in behavior, no matter how disgusting things are, these people can do it, and the so-called good people and bad people are not easy to distinguish."

Xiaoli said; "It's no wonder that parents often educate their children, and teachers often say, that is; It is better to read 10,000 books than to travel 10,000 miles, and it is better to read countless people than to travel 10,000 miles. I used to think that these few words, nice and rhyme, I don't know how many times I silently recited it in my heart, I only think it makes sense, in fact, I don't understand, the meaning, only after experiencing more things, can I really understand, the mystery in the words, sigh the wisdom of the ancestors, the profundity of Chinese culture. ”

Fang Wei said with a smile; "Xiaoli, it's good that you understand, let's not talk about these big truths, you still do something practical, find an opportunity, and talk to your girlfriend heart-to-heart, but you must say everything in your heart, you can't hide it at all, and you can't use your family background, as well as the influence of your parents, to exert it on others, this will be counterproductive, if you can cooperate, you can cooperate, it doesn't matter if you can't cooperate, even if you break up, she won't hold a grudge against you, you two are still good friends, I think this is also you, the result you want, isn't it?"

Xiaoli said with a smile; "Fang Wei, you haven't gone to college, you know a lot, and your knowledge is quite extensive, which must be related to you, who have read a lot of books and experienced a lot of things. I think of ancient times, many founding emperors, taking Zhu Yuanzhang as an example, he did not have a prominent family, nor did he go to private school, nor did he receive the influence of the Three Principles and Five Constants, so there was less restriction of rules and regulations, he was just a begging for food, and after a few days of being a monk, he could lay down the country, and the Zhu dynasty could continue for hundreds of years, although this metaphor was somewhat inappropriate, but it was enough to show that in a person's growth period, experience and experience are indispensable, and it is so important. ”

Fang Wei said; Xiaoli, tonight, we have talked enough, let's put this kind of topic down for the time being, let's talk about a year later, how we should plan then, we need to think about it in advance, are you right?

Xiaoli looked at Fang Wei for a while and said with a smile; "I know what you're going to say, you've probed me more than once, and I'll tell you one last time, what should I say? What to use to show my heart, I want to use the afterword, to make an analogy, that is what people often say; Marry a chicken with a chicken, marry a dog with a dog, marry a person who asks for food, walk on crutches, you should understand the meaning of my words, right? ”

Fang Wei took Xiaoli in his arms, kissed her on the cheek, and looked out the window, the city of Nanling, in the deep dark night, flashed lights everywhere, as if like stars in the sky, a pair of small eyes, blinking, grimacing, smiling at him.
