The Northern Stories of Chef Lao Tan

Chapter 305
After Zhang Li left, Lao Tan took off his clothes and lay on the bed, his head was half numb and half awake, recalling both the scene just now and the scene of drinking last night.

Last night, I first went to various stores to give condolences and give out red envelopes, and finally celebrated the New Year at the main store.

In fact, Lao Tan forgot about being angry with Lin Yan when he went to various stores to express condolences. He is a person who separates work and family very clearly.

Last night when Zhongqing's family of three toasted, Zhongqing asked why his sister-in-law hadn't come, he was stunned for a while, and then lied that Lin Yan had returned to Beipiao.It was at that moment that I started to feel uncomfortable.

You can't show it if you feel bad, and those who celebrate the New Year can't make everyone unhappy because of yourself.

He smiled and talked about the New Year, drinking with everyone, and then everyone toasted him in batches, departments, and organizations.He never refused to come, and drank one by one with a happy face.

At twelve o'clock, the dumplings are cooked, and the dumplings are served and continue to drink.

Later, when Zhang Li came back from her sister's house after eating dumplings, she stopped when she saw that he was still drinking.At that time, there were only a dozen or so sleeping employees and Wang Hong and his wife left in the store, and everyone else went back.

With a red face and a calm demeanor, he walked out of the store under the eyes of everyone, turned around and waved to everyone, and said in his mouth: "Don't worry, nothing happened, I didn't drink too much."

Before he finished speaking, he fell down——Four backs to the bazaar.

What happened next was a little fuzzy, as if being helped into the car, the car drove, and I was yelling, I don't know what I was yelling.

The rest is the scene of getting up in the morning, he saw Zhang Li, Zhang Li found him vomiting blood, and went to the clinic.

Lin Yan should be blamed for the recurrence of bronchiectasis this time, a very good old man, three people in three places, enough to say.

He got angry about it, and proceeded to drink and get drunk.

As the saying goes, [-]-year-old gets angry for a year, and it seems to be true. If you hit the bottle on the first day of junior high school, there is no one left.

To be honest, just now he really wanted Zhang Li to stay, and the two of them had a thorough affair.At that time, Lin Yan didn't exist, and he even forgot about his son.

Fortunately, Zhang Li was calm and had a psychological barrier of doing bad things in his house. Nothing happened, which gave him time to regret the missed opportunity and think about things.

He wanted to think about his marriage with Lin Yan in all aspects, whether to continue or end it.At the same time, reflect on yourself, why can you manage a group of nearly a thousand people, but can't manage a family?
I have the ability and eloquence, no matter how difficult it is to communicate, people can communicate and become friends, why can't I communicate with my daughter-in-law, and it seems like a fight when I open my mouth?
Don't you really have no feelings?Or the marriage has come to an end.

It is often said that a couple can share weal and woe and live a hard life together. When life is better and family is like family and life is like life, they start to have alienation and cannot live together.

He remembered the time when he rented a house with Lin Yan, that was the most beautiful memory in his heart.At that time, Lin Yan was like a kitten, as long as he was at home, she would snuggle into her arms, acting coquettishly, like a little girl.

At that time, the wages of both of them were low, and the money they earned was almost nothing except paying rent and living needs.Although the life is poor, they live a happy life. The two of them have no disputes or quarrels and are sweet and sweet. They sleep together every night, and there are fewer people around them who are empty in their hearts.

When will such a day end?

It should be after the son is born.

The birth of the son made the two of them grow up all of a sudden, and felt the responsibility and weight of being a father and a mother.

The pressure of life is increasing, and passion is crushed and crushed by reality.For the sake of my son, for money, for my family, and for the good life in the future, I bowed my head and started to work hard.

The next ten years will be ten years of getting together less and leaving more. After careful calculation, the time the two of them have been together has not exceeded half a year.

Ten years, ten years can change a lot, including people and things.

In the past ten years, Lao Tan has been developing, and Lin Yan has also been developing. The two of them have gone further and further on different tracks. In addition, they are not always together, and their relationship has gradually faded and become unfamiliar.

Can you tell who is right and who is wrong?
Work hard for your family and children.

To be honest, the two of them didn't say anything in life, being able to endure hardships is a model.However, they are all losers in family life, and so far, apart from having a decent home, the rest is nothing.

But?divorce?

Old Tan shook his head sadly, he never thought about it.

Buli, are you having a good day?A new year is not as good as normal life. In normal life, three people can still have a meal together, which is good. Three people in three places——
Is it all about Lin Yan?Not quite.

My own mother fell and couldn't move her legs. As a daughter, she was naturally worried about it, and wished she could get to her mother right away.In addition, my younger brother and younger siblings came to pick me up, and it was normal to leave when I was excited.

It is perfectly possible to call a car to take myself to my mother-in-law's house, but I was angry at the time and didn't want to go.

It turned out like this.

In the process of our growth, we have teachers when we go to school to learn knowledge, but when we enter life, there are no mentors to guide us how to live and how to get along with our lover.Even if there is, it is preaching from one's own experience, or it is a principle that is known without saying it.

But everyone's life is different from the people they face, and everyone's thoughts and attitudes towards life are also different. We understand the principles, but it is difficult to apply them.Otherwise, it is said that every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite.

It's hard to read, but you have to read it.

Because the family is the basic unit that composes our human society. It is the necessity for the continuous development of society, the necessity for human reproduction, and the instinctive formation.

We can't study esoteric philosophy and sociology, what lies before us is real life, we can do whatever we want, but we can't divorce ourselves from reality.

The old gentleman who wrote "The Besieged City" said that marriage is a city, people in the city want to go out, and people outside the city want to come in.People who go out get married again, and feel that they are out of the city, but they are still surrounded.

around.

Is there anything wrong with me?
As a man, he is successful in his career. He spent more than 20 years chasing and fulfilling his dreams without complaint or regret.To be honest, looking at the entire catering industry, it is not good for a child from the countryside to manage a restaurant to this level in [-] years, and there are not many cooks in the entire restaurant.

But what about the cost?
Nearly ten years away from home, widowed, widowed and without a father, they don't know how the two of them came here.

At that time, I couldn't think of these when I was young. I thought it was enough to take the money back. What else is there?Now that I'm getting older, I feel guilty besides guilt. To be honest, Lin Yan is content not to run away with other men.

What's more, he also raised an excellent son.

Thinking of his son Lao Tan is relieved.

It seems that my son was still in his infancy yesterday, but today he is a young man, and the period of growth seems to be blank.

Whose credit?Obviously not his own.If the son has been with him since he was a child, he doesn't know what his grandparents are like now.

You can't get a divorce because of this. I'm sorry, my wife, what is the reason to leave?
Old Tan took a long breath, let it out slowly, and said to himself: life is better and better, don’t think it’s so great, it’s still the same without you, Old Tan——
You have to take care of your son too.
