Chapter 316 After the family
Tang Wan put the suitcase in the corner, changed into the Chunhua winter school uniform she hadn't worn for a long time in the closet, tied a neat ponytail, and left the room to the living room.
"What should I do?"
Zhao Huijuan threw the dirty towel into the big red bucket, pointed to a washbasin on the balcony outside, and said, "Take a towel, fill the washbasin with water, and wipe the windows of your own room, as well as the anti-theft net."
"okay."
Tang Wan rolled up her sleeves, filled a small basin of water on the balcony sink, grabbed a useless towel, and walked to the room.
When she was about to walk into the corridor, Zhao Huijuan thought of something and called out to Tang Wan to stop.
"Wait a minute, don't go so fast."
Logan stopped in her tracks and asked, "What else can I do?"
"When you're cleaning the windows, spray a layer of detergent first and spread it evenly with a towel, especially where there is dirt, you must use a little force, otherwise you won't be able to wipe it clean.
Then run the towel through clean water once to wipe off the foam, and finally use old newspapers to dry off all the water so that no water marks will be left. Do you hear me clearly? "
Hearing this series of tedious operations, Logan's scalp exploded.
"No, a glass window is supposed to protect against wind and rain. Do you have to use complicated methods?"
"It's done once a year. What's the point of cleaning it up? Besides, the room you live in will look comfortable if it's cleaned up."
Sometimes Tang Wan really annoyed Zhao Huijuan, it was obviously just some irrelevant details, she insisted on holding on to them.
"understood."
Tang Wan was too lazy to argue with Zhao Huijuan, and when she had time to quarrel, she would have finished cleaning.
Logan returned to the room with the washbasin in hand, made another trip back and took away the detergent and gloves.
"Let's get to work! Finish cleaning early, and go to bed early."
Tang Wan packed up her mood, found Jay Chou's exclusive favorites on QQ Music, chose the first song "Daoxiang", and clicked to play.
The quiet chirping of cicadas flows through the room accompanied by the brisk prelude.
"It has to be Jay Chou for cleaning!"
……
the other side.
When Lu You returned home, he put his luggage back in the cloakroom, then sat leisurely on the sofa in the living room on the first floor, and sent a message to Tang Wan.
Ly: I'm home.
After waiting for 2 minutes and not receiving a reply, Lu You sent another message.
Ly: Are you busy?
After another 2 minutes, there was still no reply. Lu You put down the phone and did not wait any longer.
Just in time, Shen Yuyin changed her clothes and came down from the stairs.
Lu You fished the gas tank that was sleeping on the side into his arms, and asked casually, "Where are Dad and Xiaoshu? Why didn't you see them? Have you gone out?"
"Ah."
Shen Yuyin walked into the kitchen, poured boiling water into her cup, and said, "They said they were going to the mall to participate in a parent-child activity."
Lu You scratched Xiao Bao's back neck with his fingers, his movements were gentle but firm.
Xiao Bao raised his head, narrowed his eyes comfortably, and made a snoring sound from time to time.
"Family activities?"
Lu You raised his head and asked curiously, "Why didn't you go with me?"
Shen Yuyin put down the water glass, his face turned dark.
"Xiao Shu refuses to let me follow."
"Did you quarrel?"
"She thinks I'm ugly and embarrassing."
"what!"
Lu You laughed for a while and then quickly shut up, lest Shen Yuyin become angry and take it out on herself.
"The mud is ugly. You can learn online. You can find tutorials on any video site."
"no."
Shen Yuyin sat beside Lu You, turned on the big-screen TV, and looked through the historical records.
"Your dad's knowledge is enough. After two years, Xiaoshu will grow up, and she will think that pinching mud is childish, and it is a waste for me to learn."
"When you encounter problems, you don't think about how to solve them, but how to avoid them? Is this how adults behave? How mature!" Lu You mocked mercilessly.
"Leave me alone?"
Shen Yuyin rolled her eyes at Lu You, then crossed her legs and focused on the TV series.
Lu You followed suit for a while, but soon lost interest.
Without it, the plot is too mediocre, and the character setting has no shining points, so it is impossible to devote oneself to it.
Lu You patted Xiaobao's lower back to let it leave his lap, stood up and said, "Mom, I'll go out for a while."
Shen Yuyin asked without raising her head, "Are you coming back for dinner?"
"I'll go to Li Yu next door, and I'll be back soon."
"Okay, let's go."
Lu You picked up the phone and looked at it, and found that there was still no reply, and felt a little uncomfortable.But I didn't pay much attention to it. Logan didn't reply to the news, probably because she was busy with something, and she could ask her in detail after she finished her work.
Stuffing the phone into his pocket, Lu You left home, crossed a road, came to Li Yu's house with ease, and rang the doorbell.
Not long after, a middle-aged woman who had never seen before came out of the house and brought Lu You in.
The scale of the Li family is almost the same as that of the Lu family. It can basically be said to be the same template, but the interior decoration is very different.
The furniture of the Li family is all dark wooden furniture, the overall tone is black and white, which is very traditional in the south.
The Lu family has bright fabric sofas, mainly in warm tones, in a modern and warm style.
"Liangzi, is this your first visit to Li's house?" the middle-aged woman asked in a low voice.
After a while, Lu You realized that she was talking to herself, and she repeatedly replied: "No, I live next door, and I used to come here often. I have been traveling outside for the past six months, and I want to see if there is any change."
The middle-aged woman didn't make any more noise, making Lu You a little confused.
[Why did the topic suddenly stop?Did I say something wrong? 】
When the two came to the living room, the middle-aged woman lowered her head slightly and said politely: "Sir, madam, the guests are here."
Li Ruijin put down the newspaper and said, "Thanks for your hard work, go get busy first."
"It's a matter of duty."
The middle-aged woman bowed and left the living room silently.
Lu You was deeply surprised, he really didn't expect Li Ruijin to be at home.At this point in the past, Li's company was still busy summing up its performance at the end of the year, and Li Ruijin, as the head, had no reason to stay at home.
But accidents are accidents, and the etiquette that should be given cannot be less.
"Uncle Li, Aunt Chen, good afternoon. Long time no see, how are you?"
Chen Su joked with a smile: "Look at what you said, it makes us seem very unfamiliar!"
Lu You smiled without saying a word.
Li Ruijin took off his presbyopic glasses, showed an amiable smile that elders often used, and asked, "Is your dad busy recently?"
Lu You thought for a while, and replied truthfully: "He took Lu Jingshu to a parent-child activity today, so I think he's not busy."
"Family activities?"
Li Ruijin was inexplicably emotional, and asked, "What do you mainly do?"
Although Lu You felt baffled, he still replied: "I haven't been there, I don't know very well, probably to accompany children to make clay figurines?"
"Does that mean adults can't go?"
"I think, apart from the children's parents, there should be no adults who can play with a group of three or four-year-old children who have not developed their minds?"
Li Ruijin's mood cooled down extremely quickly, as if someone had poured a basin of cold water on his face.
Chen Su smoothed things over, and asked gently: "Xiao Lu, are you here to play with Xiao Yu? He is studying upstairs, so you can go up and find him."
"Thank you auntie."
After finishing speaking, Lu You turned around and walked upstairs.
……
The second floor of Li's house.
Lu You came to the door of Li Yu's room and found that Li Yu was sitting in front of the desk, holding his face in his left hand, and turning a black fountain pen in his right hand, as if he was thinking about a certain problem.
"You BYD, are you actually studying?"
Li Yu turned around and was surprised to see it was Lu You.
"When did you come back?"
"The plane got off at noon."
Lu You walked to Li Yu's side, looked at the physics papers spread out in front of him, patted him on the shoulder and joked, "It's not like your style! I remember you said that the holiday time can only be used for fun, who Learn who is an idiot, what's going on here?"
"Ah~"
Li Yu sighed, and said with emotion: "It's different now! Everyone is desperate, if I want to be like before, wouldn't it seem out of place?"
"so."
Lu You turned around and half sat on the edge of the desk, and asked, "Is the exam effective? How is the exam ranking?"
"The effect is still there, and occasionally it can reach No.1."
"Can't be the number one?"
"You think I'm you?"
Li Yu said angrily: "Wang Linghua and Lao Deng didn't show off. When everyone is reading, how can I be the first every time? There is no gap in IQ."
"Right."
That's all the knowledge in high school, no matter how the questions are asked, they will not exceed the scope of the college entrance examination questions.
For the students at the top of the pyramid, they have basically mastered everything they can master, and there is not much difference in strength, and their scores all depend on their performance on the spot.
"What about Xu Nian, how is she?"
"Steady in the top ten, occasionally in the top five."
"Very good, keep it up, and the possibility of entering the Capital University is very high."
"Lend your auspicious words."
At this moment, Lu You thought of Li Ruijin who he met downstairs, so he asked, "By the way, I met your dad just now. Shouldn't he be working in the company during this period of time? Why is he at home?"
"How would I know? I never asked."
Lu You narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking of Li Ruijin's strange appearance when he heard about parent-child activities, he had a bold guess in his heart.
"I suspect that your father specially gave the company an early vacation, so that he can go home with you."
"Bullshit!"
Li Yu was full of disbelief, and said, "You might as well say that you are Qin Shihuang, and let me v you 50."
"You do not believe?"
"Do you believe?"
Two people look at me, I look at you, no one can convince the other.
"Then how do you explain that your father is at home?"
"possible……"
Li Yu looked around, paused for a long time, and then said uncertainly: "It's a whim, or maybe it's just because I want to be lazy, anyway, it can't be to accompany me."
"Why are you so sure?" Lu You asked.
"It's not like you haven't seen my father's attitude towards me before. He never had a good face."
"What about now? How is it treating you now?"
Li Yu was about to open his mouth to answer, but Lu You raised his hand to stop him, and said, "I want you to think about it seriously, don't engage in impression flow."
Although Li Yu was not very willing, he still did what Lu You said.
Gradually, Li Yu's expression changed a little.
"Have you figured it out?" Lu You asked in a timely manner.
"He's been nice to me recently, but so what!"
Li Yu turned his head sharply, and said with a cold expression: "At the age when I needed my father's love the most, he treated me coldly, and now he has come to his senses and feels ashamed of me, and wants to have a good relationship with me.
Brother, I'm an adult, and I won't be limited in time for playing games, and I need to take full responsibility for breaking the law. Don't you think it's too late? "
"Change is better than no change."
Lu You looked directly into Li Yu's eyes, and said lightly, "Have you ever thought about how your mother would feel if you were in a stalemate? When you take Xu Nian home, what will happen to her? Let's talk again." Stay away, your future child asks about your grandpa, how do you deal with it?"
Li Yu avoided Lu You's gaze and remained silent.
Knowing that Li Yu listened, Lu You hit the iron while the iron was hot, and continued to persuade: "I know, you have a deep prejudice against your father, and I'm not asking you to accept him or forgive him right away, it's unrealistic.
However, since your father chose to put down his body and try to ease the relationship with you, there is no need for you to resist.How about giving him some time to see his sincerity, and giving yourself some time to reconcile with the past? "
Li Yu's eyes fell on the big-headed clay doll in the front right corner of the desk.
The doll is only the size of a palm. It is a short-haired girl with a lively expression.
"Let me think about it."
As the saying goes, the authorities are obsessed, but the bystanders are clear. This sentence is true, but it is not entirely true.
Lu You could clearly see the conflict between the father and son of the Li family, but he was not Li Yu after all. He hadn't experienced it himself, so he couldn't understand Li Yu's true inner thoughts.
From Lu You's point of view, it is not difficult to talk to his father openly, but when it comes to Li Yu, there is always a hurdle in his heart that cannot be overcome.
Lu You is very aware of this, so he will not rush.It was the Li family and his son who had the problem, and naturally they had to solve the problem.
"Take your time. You are still young, and your father is not that old. As long as you don't go against each other, there will be enough time for you to understand each other. If it doesn't work, you can still find foreign aid."
"Foreign aid? Who is it?"
"Xu Nian."
Li Yu frowned and asked, "Isn't it good to trouble Xu Nian with my family affairs?"
"As a person with a girlfriend, let me tell you a word, don't impose your hypothetical thoughts on the other party.
Okay, it doesn't count if I say it, and it doesn't count if you say it. You have to discuss it with Xu Nian and ask her for her own opinion, instead of being self-righteous here.
The taboo of couples getting along is wishful thinking. I think you think so, I think you like this, and then you step on the thunder. "
Li Yu nodded seriously, and replied: "I understand, thank you brother for your teaching, I will find time to discuss with Xu Nian."
Lu You showed a gratified smile.
"Let's not talk about this, come to play games? Just relax."
"Now?"
"Yes, now."
Li Yu's mind moved, and he subconsciously wanted to agree, but he hesitated when he saw the half-written physics paper.
"But I haven't finished the test paper yet."
"A word, come or not?"
"Come!"
Li Yu gave up studying without hesitation and threw herself into the embrace of games.
The papers have to be written every day, and one less day of playing games means one less day of happiness. (end of this chapter)
