The two of them sat down, Du Wanling turned her face slightly, looked at He Yi'an's handsome cheeks, and asked cautiously while pity: "Yi'an, have you seen your father?" ”

A question, like a summer spine suddenly fell into an ice pick, which made people shudder, He Yi'an's face instantly became gloomy, and he lowered his head slightly: "Oh, I've seen it." ”

Her son's loneliness came into view, and Du Wanling couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart: "Hey, you're still in a hurry, some ideas are actually not too late to tell him when you graduate from college." ”

"Dad told you everything?"

He Yi'an raised his head and looked at his mother with trepidation, as if he had realized that her trip was not simply a business trip, but more like a special trip, which made him feel guilty and nervous.

Du Wanling's forehead was covered with gloom, full of hidden worries about the conflict between her father and son, and said softly: "As soon as you left, he called me." Yi'an, you are father and son, and I don't want to see any gap between you. Father and son centrifuge, this is a disaster for your future. ”

He Yi'an lowered his head in frustration and rubbed his fingers vigorously: "I know that he is for my good, so I don't want to deceive him, and I don't want to deceive myself." ”

Du Wanling's face was sad, and she was very considerate and reached out to gently touch He Yi'an's shoulder, giving her mother comfort: "Since you can understand your father, you can't be so straightforward with him, everything needs to be done step by step." You are our child, but you were raised by the Cheng family, and there are a lot of helplessness and contradictions that you don't know much about, which need to be resolved slowly. ”

He Yi'an drooped his head and whispered: "Mom, I actually know ......"

"You know?" Du Wanling's hand on her shoulder couldn't help but tremble, and she asked tremblingly, "What do you know?" ”

"I've heard your quarrels......"

He Yi'an glanced at Du Wanling guiltily, lowered his head, and seemed to be muttering to himself, but the resentment that was innocent really couldn't be suppressed: "I don't understand, why does Dad treat them so badly, and he hasn't stepped into that threshold once in so many years." Even the future that was planned for me was partly to get me out of that family, why is that? Is it for the sake of his so-called class differences and useless self-esteem? Didn't he think that was too much? ”

The more He Yi'an spoke, the more agitated he became, and the chaos in his heart turned into a full of righteous indignation. Hearing this, Du Wanling was also shocked, and her heart was even more uncomfortable: "You really heard this!" Hey, you're ......."

He Yi'an looked at his mother, and the bitterness in his eyes was unobstructed: "Mom, let me ignore the kindness of my godfather and godmother in vain, this is impossible!" So caught between my father's wishes and my own ideals, I am very entangled and painful, Mom, you should be able to understand me! ”

At both ends of the head and tail, it is difficult to choose, why is Du Wanling not like this.

She looked faintly at the thin ice-covered lake in the distance, and said calmly: "Hey, I can understand, isn't my mother also caught in the middle and in a dilemma!" ”

He Yi'an took a deep breath, then spit it out, and said categorically: "So I can only say it, if I don't say it, this stone will weigh me a little out of breath." ”

Looking at her son's painful and depressed appearance, Du Wanling's heart was sour. The grievances and entanglements of the previous generation cannot be directly revealed, and the secrets between husband and wife are even more suffering.

Some problems that I don't think are a problem in my own eyes, but in He Weiguo's body, they are like boundless floods, poisonous snakes with baring teeth, and bottomless abysses.

It is this incomprehensible mentality that pushes himself and his son out step by step, and finally to the opposite, estrangement, confrontation between enemy and me, is this still a home?

Du Wanling's eyes were dim, and she said abruptly: "Sometimes I don't understand why your father became like this, he was not like this before, he was high-spirited and capable, and he was the object of respect and respect by many people." Maybe it's those unbearable pasts that make him so strange and indifferent that even I can't believe that this change can be so great. ”

Looking at his lonely and self-suffering mother, He Yixin was ashamed and entangled: "Mom, there are some things I haven't told him yet, it's about ...... Regarding the river, I think you should help me talk about it. In short, I won't give up! ”

Du Wanling's heart suddenly turned over the river and the sea for a while, He Yi'an's perseverance and stubbornness are the same as He Weiguo, they are all waving whips, whipping themselves, and forcing themselves forward.

But what will such reckless brute force end up in? Is that what you're looking for?

She frowned and complained, "Yi'an, can't you wait any longer?" This can only intensify the conflict between your father and son, in case your father does something uncontrollable in anger, such a result will not only involve you alone, I am afraid that your godfather and godmother, and even Jiang Shui may be harmed! ”

"But ......" He Yi'an lowered his head and said dejectedly: "But I have already revealed some in a hurry, I think, he can already guess something......"

"You!"

Du Wanling's face suddenly turned pale, she looked at her silent son sadly, pursed her lips, and said in disappointment: "Yi'an, you really gave your mother a big problem!" ”

He Yi'an's eyes were slightly red, and he looked at his mother helplessly: "Mom, you can help me, only you can help me now!" ”

"Hey!"

Du Wanling sighed deeply, and admonished: "Mom can only say do her best." Yi'an, the road is your own choice, people can do the wrong thing, but not the wrong way. No matter how hard it will be in the future, there will be no chance of turning back, do you understand? ”

He Yi'an nodded slightly: "I understand, Mom, I don't regret my choice!" ”

Du Wanling left with a sad face, the temperature by the lake seemed to drop suddenly, it seemed more empty and cold, and the beautiful scenery that greeted her became bleak and withered, declining and lonely. He Yi'an looked at the nutritional products brought by his mother in his hand, and his heart was filled with apologies and sourness, and he was speechless for a while, and sat in a daze.

Carrying He Yi'an's ardent expectations, like a mountain pressing on his shoulders, He Weiguo's stubbornness and toughness are like a pair of iron tongs tightly holding his throat, Du Wanling is like an old woman, staggering, and suffocating.

As a mother and a wife, she could only fight her spirits, struggling to make the last effort in her tired eyes. Maybe doing your best for your children is also doing your best for yourself.

At dusk, I don't know how I came to He Weiguo's apartment in a reluctant way, and I tidied up my haggard face at the door a little, and then there was a knock on the door. After a while, He Weiguo's indifferent face with a little surprise appeared in front of him.

"You're here! Don't say when you come, so you can arrange a car to pick it up. ”

"You know me, I'm not used to using a public car."

The meeting between husband and wife is plain, and there seems to be an invisible ice wall in the middle. There is no emotion, no warmth, just like two unfamiliar colleagues in the office to deal with each other.

He Weiguo walked straight back to the house and waved his hand slightly: "You sit down, this house is also a temporary residence, go back to the new house and move over, I'll pour water, you don't have a hurry to leave this time in Lanzhou, right?" ”

This is the first time I have come to He Weiguo's apartment, which is supposed to be a place to be at home, but Du Wanling did not have the slightest desire to look and browse, she didn't care about the surrounding furnishings, and sat straight on the sofa, her handbag still in her arms: "The work in the bureau, I did it a little in advance, and I will transfer to Xi'an by taking the evening train, and I won't stay here for long." ”

He Weiguo turned his head, frowned, and his tone was very stiff: "Are you in such a hurry?" Your Cultural Affairs Bureau is not going to change without you. ”

Du Wanling replied lightly: "You also know during this time, I'm not alone!" ”

He Weiguo nodded indifferently, walked over with a glass of water, put it in front of Du Wanling, as if sitting on the clouds and talking about business, and said coldly: "Speaking of which, I had some contact with your cultural system some time ago, and you can consider transferring directly to Lanzhou, so that our family can stay together and it is convenient to take care of education and peace." ”

Du Wanling frowned, a little upset: "It's so easy to transfer, and besides, I haven't been in office for long." ”

He Weiguo was official for a while, with a tone that could not be denied: "I will run in the back of this matter, you just need to be mentally prepared, you come to Lanzhou, I can also think about transferring to Xiamen." ”

"Xiamen? Are you really going to move to a coastal city? ”

Hearing this, Du Wanling's heart trembled, and she sat up straight, this matter was originally mentioned casually between husband and wife, but she didn't expect He Weiguo to put it on the agenda so quickly, and he moved quickly.

He Weiguo said sharply, pointing at Fang Xuan and said: "When you are a cadre, you must be sensitive to the development of the situation, and now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If I don't grasp this opportunity, I can only guard this one-third of an acre of land that I can't eat and starve to death in the future, which is not my pursuit. ”

Du Wanling said worriedly: "But in this way, Yi'an doesn't want to be separated from you again, and the children are already ...... Ay! ”

In Du Wanling's heart, she really hopes that the family can stay together in harmony, especially for the father and son who are deeply estranged. The inherent contradictions need to be slowly resolved on the basis of common family life, how can father and son have an overnight feud.

But now? He Yi'an finally came to his father's side, and he pondered to stay away from Lanzhou and go to Xiamen, which is thousands of miles away.

So how to maintain the precarious family relationship?

How can the growing estrangement be bridged?
