The Northern Stories of Chef Lao Tan

Chapter 539 The current situation of Yaru and Laotan

I have to say that Lao Tan and Yaru are harmonious together, which is very natural and logical.

Yaru is kind, virtuous, and considerate. He is a good hand in life. Whoever marries such a daughter-in-law is regarded as a high-spirited.

He and Lao Tan were originally a good couple, but the world made troubles, and various reasons caused Lao and Yan to separate and have different destinies.

We like lovers to get married in the end, and we are willing to see a happy ending, just because there are always unsatisfactory regrets in real life.

If Yaju's parents hadn't insisted on asking Yaju to find a partner at home, if Yaju had had her own ideas and didn't submit to her parents' arrangements, they might have become a family long ago.

But things are often not as expected.

So can the two be a family now?
not sure.

Although Lao Tan got divorced and became a free man, his divorce is the same as his cancer, and he still hides it from his family and dear son, not wanting them to know.

First, he didn’t want to worry his relatives, so he got angry; second, he didn’t know if the cancer would be cured. Although it looked good now, he couldn’t be sure until the cancer cells were eliminated from the body.

To be honest, these two things are not a big deal to him, and he doesn't even care about them, but he knows what these two things mean to mother and son.

If the mother finds out, she will be worried to death, followed by getting angry. For a person in his eighties, if something happens, he will regret it to death.

There is also a son, let alone let him know, the reason is so simple that people don't know what to say when they understand it.

Said he did the right thing?But everyone knows that paper can't hold fire, and one day the truth will be revealed; that he did something wrong?But what to do?Could it be that he told his son that his father had cancer and divorced his mother?

Can the son survive this double blow?He is just fifteen.

Although this kid is very self-reliant and sensible since he was a child, he hasn't experienced any setbacks, unlike him who started to live in a family at 13 years old, and has the same tolerance as an adult.

He didn't want his son to go through what he went through because he was still alive.

Yes, alive.

The beauty of living is often because of a responsibility and expectation, not nostalgia.This is also what people often say that living is not only for yourself, but for the loved ones around you without sadness, concern, or concern——
Of course, as far as life itself is concerned, if it is not for unexpected disasters and sudden serious illnesses, it is a normal thing to die according to the laws of nature.But then again, isn't that time yet?

After all, I am young, I am only 46 years old, and I am far away from the end of my life. .

How to do?
There is no other way, but to live strong and optimistic, let the cancer cells be eliminated in the body, and die like a normal person.This is the desire to live and the best explanation to relatives.

In this case, it is right not to tell them. If they don’t know, there will be misfortune. In this way, they can’t see their worries, and they can recuperate easily, which will get twice the result with half the effort.

As for the divorce, it is true that the fate has come to an end. Before the divorce, the responsibility of the family and the commitment to the marriage were still on the shoulders. After the divorce, I realized that it was all self-deception.

Of course, divorce is an irresponsible harm to the child. In order to minimize the harm, I plan to tell my son after he goes to college.

That is to say, before the son goes to college, he can't let him know that he and his mother are divorced, and they are still a family.

This involves the issue of whether to find a woman, seriously speaking, remarriage, and specifically speaking, how to treat the relationship with Yaru.

There is also a practical problem in this-it must be cured and a healthy person.If you are not well, you can't promise Yaru anything, this is the principle.

So what does our Yaru think?

She thought very simply.

She loves Lao Tan and is willing to be with him. Although Lao Tan suffers from cancer, she doesn't care.It's just that remarriage is not yet possible for her - she cares about her son's feelings, although she knows that her son also hopes to find a partner.

She hasn't considered this matter well yet, and she wants to wait until her son graduates from college and finds a job, or after his son gets married.

She didn't want to think about it before, but now she is willing to be with Lao Tan.She thinks that as long as they love each other and have each other in their hearts, it doesn't matter whether they get married or not.They are all people who have experienced marriage and family. Can that piece of paper be better than true feelings?

Now that Lao Tan is sick, what she has to do is to take care of him as best she can, and give him the tenderness and consideration of his wife, which is what he needs most.She has experienced it from herself. Since her son was one year old, he has been living a life like a widow, and 20 years have passed in a flash, and the feeling is not good.

Men too.

Apart from love, there is also sex between a man and a woman. The two complement each other. Both are ordinary people and cannot be avoided.

Aren't people's cheating all about sex?

He understood Lao Tan just as he understood himself.Sexless marriage leads to a sexless life, longing for the comfort of men but being stumbling by the secular world, and women have sex because of love, it is impossible to be together with people who are not pleasing to them, and they will not let their bodies go.

Fortunately, I have a son, which gives me comfort and sustenance, so that I can get to where I am today step by step.

What she didn't expect was that Lao Tan would get divorced, just like she didn't expect him to get cancer.But when he thinks about his cancer, he knows why he got divorced-he will do it, and if he doesn't do it, he won't be Lao Tan.

Now that Lao Tan is divorced, there is no psychological burden to be with him. Although I don't want to get married yet, being together is better than anything else. This is happiness.

It really snowed.

It started at noon the next day.At the beginning, there were large flakes of snow, and soon the world became a vast expanse of white, and the mountains in the distance were blurred.

In the morning, Lao Tan carried a lot of wood into the house, then went to the shed to buy vegetables, and went to the butcher shop to buy meat.When buying meat, I caught up with a newly slaughtered cow, cut off three catties of beef, and bought the tripe.

Nothing to do on a snowy day, I am going to the wine shop to call Zhou Xiaomei's parents to cook beef tripe hot pot.After we arrived, we found out that Xiaomei’s husband, Cao Jiadong, had broken his leg while changing the outdoor unit of the air conditioner and needed to stay at home for a while. Xiaomei’s mother returned to Hohhot yesterday to take care of her son-in-law and three children.

Old Tan Xin said what happened this year, first Yaru had a car accident, then Huaqing was hit on the head, and now Jiadong fell again, who is next?
Don't have another one, [-] will be over soon, let's all stop.

Walking back through the snow with Xiaomei's father, they ran into Yingzi's father who was calling Xiaomei's father to eat at home. Lao Tan cut him off and attracted Yingzi's father.

When I got home, I asked Yingzi's father to call Yingzi's mother so that she would not eat at home alone.

When Yingzi's mother came, she brought the stewed stupid chicken, and the five members of the three families sat around and ate lively.

Here, by the way, Xiaoyingzi, this child will graduate from university in two years, majoring in business management, and plans to work in Wang Shulan's store in Beijing after graduation.

Wang Shulan's unintentional act of kindness changed the fate of a farm child in a poor mountainous area. No matter how you look at it, it is a good thing to accumulate merit.

In the ordinary world of ordinary people, there are actually many good people like Wang Shulan. They don't ask for anything in return, think it's okay to do something, and silently interpret kindness and beauty for this world.
