In this world, there is a power that transcends distance, can overcome waiting, and can pierce obstacles.

By the time we arrived at the hotel, a large private room was already full, and it took the three of us a few minutes to say hello one by one.

Everyone saw Tingting I was holding and wanted to rush to hug her, but the little guy didn't agree, hugged my neck tightly, and no one let me hug her.

A cheerful atmosphere fills the room, giving the air a hint of warmth. Yaoyao and I have become the object of ridicule, asking when we will get married and have children.

Yaoyao and I were blushed by everyone's enthusiasm, but my aunt came over in time to solve the siege, saying that we are still working hard in our careers, and we don't think about getting married and having children first.

Everyone also expressed their understanding, saying that now that they are young, they can enjoy the world of the two of them, and they are not in a hurry in the past two years.

The sudden appearance of my brother-in-law also made everyone care for him, but this kid is not like me. In front of a group of elders, he behaved with ease, and I was so envious of it.

By the time everyone finished greeting each other, a long time had passed, and it was not until the waiter pushed the door to remind the food to be served that it was finally quiet.

It was another joyful dinner, and the atmosphere reached its climax when my uncle announced that I was going to my uncle's company.

Everyone expressed their blessings to us, and it was clear that they were really happy for us.

This also makes me feel a little guilty for rejecting my little uncle's sheng feelings, sometimes people are too subjective, maybe it's not a good thing.

Fortunately, everyone was happily discussing their own affairs, and no one noticed my mood changes.

After thirty years of wine, the five flavors of the dishes, the guests and hosts were happy, and this rare reunion also came to an end in China with everyone's farewell.

sent them away, and when everyone returned home, the aunt took Yaoyao and a few of their women to make honey water for everyone.

Several men drank less, especially my brother-in-law, which greatly surprised my expectations. It looks polite and polite, with a harmless smile on the face of humans and animals, but as a result, the wine is not ambiguous at all.

Several tables of elders took turns to toast, and they all drank it all, seeing that the aunt was frowning next to him, and the uncle was proud.

I think as a father, as a comrade-in-arms, his pride is a matter of course. No one else can understand this kind of affection between men, but I know it very well, because I also saw this pride in my father's eyes.

Seeing my brother-in-law's performance at the wine table, I even thought in my heart that if I put him and Wu Kai together, there would be something different.

But how high-spirited he was at the wine table, how uncomfortable he was now. Seeing him frowning and gasping for breath like a stranded fish, I knew what was going on with him.

When the aunt handed him the honey water, he also took it and poured it into his stomach without hesitation, as if he was afraid that someone would snatch it.

"You go and make him some millet porridge for him to drink, he has patronized and drunk today, and he hasn't eaten anything, so it must be uncomfortable to have nothing in his stomach."

Looking at his son's uncomfortable expression, the uncle opened his mouth and said to the aunt who was looking at his son worriedly. Before my aunt could make a move, Yaoyao, who was sitting next to me, had already bounced up from the sofa like a spring.

By the time everyone realized that the black shadow that had just floated in front of them was her, she had already arrived at the kitchen door. And the sentence 'I'll go' in her mouth only then fell into everyone's ears.

In the stunned eyes of everyone, Yaoyao soon came back with a pot of steaming millet porridge. The aunt also helped to hold a small bowl for everyone, and did not forget to serve a plate of mustard.

Looking at Yaoyao and Auntie, who were busy before and after, their vision became blurred little by little. My father is also a good smoker and a drinker, so since I was a child, I witnessed how my mother had hysterical abuse and accusations after my father drank.

Similarly, in the environment where I grew up, there are too many such families and such relationships. It's not often that I see a woman around me who would take care of a man after they get drunk like Yaoyao and Auntie.

Growing up in such an environment, I have always felt that smoking and drinking is a heinous crime for men.

Later, I met Wu Kai, and under his leadership, I unconsciously became addicted to alcohol. Yaoyao has expressed her dissatisfaction with my uncontrolled drinking more than once, but she has never stopped me, let alone accused me of drinking.

Think of when I was a child, my mother and the aunts in the village, after my father and uncles got drunk, they were angry and angry.

Look at the front again, Yaoyao and Auntie, here they just delivered the boiled millet porridge to everyone, and they immediately started to draw hot water for everyone to soak their feet.

After everyone was arranged, Yaoyao sat down next to me, stretching her hand and gently pressing my temples.

I hadn't actually drunk much today, so I didn't feel that bad, but my uncle and brother-in-law seemed to have drunk too much.

The aunt will have a son in her eyes, and she has no time to deal with her uncle, so the uncle can only rub it himself. While rubbing, he muttered about his aunt's partiality, which made everyone laugh again.

Looking at this harmonious atmosphere, my heart unconsciously warmed up. The heat from the hot water under his feet opened all the pores of his body, and a layer of fine and dense sweat came out.

When the hot water under the soles of his feet slowly became warm, the smell of alcohol on his body was almost gone, and the closed eyes of his uncle and brother-in-law slowly opened.

The brother-in-law's original inarticulate speech became clear, and he also told everyone about his experience in the past three years.

It turned out that I had heard Yaoyao tell me about his glorious deeds countless times, but when I heard him talk about it in person, the feeling of rejuvenation, completely shocked me.

After the college entrance examination, he took the 1,000 yuan he asked for from his uncle, and ran to Shanghai, except for the fare, there was not much left in Shanghai.

Fortunately, as soon as he arrived in Shanghai, he found a restaurant with food and lodging and worked as a waiter. It's hard for me to imagine how he, who has been pampered since childhood, persuaded himself to become a waiter.

Even his uncle, who had been saying that he had not suffered anything and wanted him to exercise, turned abnormal when he heard that he was going to be a waiter.

After more than two months of work, he managed to save enough for his tuition, but after paying the tuition fees and buying the things he needed to start school, his wallet had bottomed out.

But even so, he did not open up to his parents, but chose to continue working after going to school.

Handing out flyers, playing dolls on the side of the road, tutoring, and even putting up small advertisements. But he has tried almost all the means to make money.

In just a few months, he has experienced being cheated of money, having his mobile phone stolen, and being chased all over the streets by the chengguan......

In short, his experience in just a few months may be richer than my experience in the past twenty years, and it is precisely because of these experiences that he seems extremely calm when he talks about these things again.

Listening to him speak in a calm tone, everyone present was solemn, and Yaoyao and Aunt and several of their women were already in tears.

A few of us old men also had red eyes, trying to control their emotions. Although I can't empathize with him, the things he experienced should be uncomfortable for any of us.

I, in particular, was about the same age as him, and I remembered my experience of looking for a job in the month after I left the mold factory.

Looking at the brother-in-law in front of me, it's hard for me to imagine how he did all this with his upbringing.

His experience shocked me far more than everyone present, but even so, everyone listened to his story with red eyes.

Fortunately, the experience was not long, and he followed his uncle's advice to enlist in the army.

Just imagine, how a little boy who grew up spoiled by his parents and sister grew up step by step in the strong army and won almost all the awards.

When he first joined the army, he was too thin to complete many training courses. More than once, he was trained by his squad leader, but even so, it was difficult for him to keep up with the training of others.

In order not to lag behind, in order to be able to fulfill the promise he gave himself, he spent all the time that others used to rest.

Five kilometers, everyone else is one in the morning and one in the evening, and he has to run five a day.

Cross-country with weights, others practice once a week, and he goes once a day.

400-meter hurdles, others were so tired that they collapsed on the ground after one run, and he ran again and again.

The hands on the single parallel bars were worn out, and the band-aid was put on again; The calluses on the knuckles of the fingers hit by the sandbags were thicker than those of the squad leader.

In three months, he used his first to conquer everyone and also conquer the training ground. In the recruit assessment, he was brought into the guard company by the squad leader with all the outstanding individual scores.

The price of these achievements is that three months of high-intensity training have brought a lot of hard injuries to his body.

Some injuries are irreversible, but even so, he gritted his teeth and persevered.

In the company, he still trains the hardest, and every time he trains, he will never stop training until he falls.

The squad commander felt sorry for him, and the platoon commander also came forward to stop his crazy training, and the company commander directly ordered him to halve his strength.

But even though everyone was staring at him, he still secretly practiced for himself. They have trained them in shooting to the first place in the whole army's martial arts competition, and they have trained them in grappling and fighting to the top of the whole army, and they have trained all kinds of special training in the forefront of the whole military region.

A conscript, who had been in the army for two years, was stunned to train himself until he was thrown by the army commander and sent to a sanatorium in the military region to recuperate for a month.

I've never been in the army, so I don't know what he means, but it's shocking, but it's normal.

But as a veteran, my uncle's cigarette and his trembling lips told me that these things were by no means as simple as he now described them lightly.

When the brother-in-law finally stopped talking with a smile, the uncle stood up from the sofa, stood up with a 'horn', and saluted the brother-in-law in a dignified manner.

"This is a veteran who pays you a respect, and I tell you solemnly now that I regret it. I shouldn't have let you go to the army, I shouldn't have let you go through these two years of training. ”

"All the while, you've been hiding behind your sister, and I think there's a little bit of masculinity in your character. That's why I let you go to the army, and I want you to exercise. ”

"But today, I have to tell you, Dad was wrong. I didn't expect that under your soft-looking and weak appearance, there was a strong you. ”

"You conquered Dad with your actions, you don't need to prove anything, no matter what you do in the future, Dad will support him unconditionally."

"I have reason to believe that whatever you want to do, you can do it. But at the same time, Dad also wants to tell you that being brave is not just rushing forward. ”

"True bravery is to admit that you are powerless, to admit that there are things you can't do. Your kind of success at the cost of burning your own body is not advisable. ”

"So Dad hopes that you can use your wisdom more to achieve the success you want in your future life journey, instead of being as brutal as you are now."

Seeing his uncle's movements, the brother-in-law also hurriedly stood up and added a salute in a dignified manner. After listening to his uncle's words, the brother-in-law fell into deep thought, and after a long time he exhaled softly.

"Actually, I just want to prove to myself that I'm not worse than others. From childhood to adulthood, my sister is a child of someone else's family, she is beautiful, smart, well-behaved, and knows the philosophy of life. ”

"Almost everyone's eyes are drawn to her, and I just need to hide behind my sister and she will block everything for me."

"When I was a child, as long as I made a mistake, my sister would protect me as soon as possible and accept your punishment by herself. I'm also used to this kind of protection and take it for granted. ”

"It wasn't until my sister failed the high school entrance examination and had to go to secondary school that I realized that my sister would also have her weakness."

"One day, she also needs to be protected, so I studied hard and tried hard to make myself stronger."

"Fortunately, now that my brother-in-law is here, although it is the first time we have met, in fact, I have known you for a long time."

"Every time I talk to my sister, you are the one she talks about the most. In her mouth, you are the embodiment of perfection, a mountain that I cannot surpass. ”

"When she said this, I knew she didn't need my protection anymore. In the future, with you by her side, she will definitely not be harmed in any way. ”

"So, in the future, I don't have to worry about my stupid old lady anymore, and I don't have to work so hard."

"Mom, Dad, sister, don't worry. I will definitely take good care of my body in the future, and I will not be stupid again. ”

The brother-in-law's words moved everyone present. I don't think anyone would have thought that the reason he was so desperate was just to protect the people he wanted to protect.

And I felt that the pressure on my body suddenly became extremely great, he was so good that he still needed to work so hard, and how should I protect this girl who was cared for by everyone in every way?
