The officialdom of rebirth

As soon as Chen Yang drove the jeep on the way out of the college, he received a call from Chen Ruonan. On the phone, Chen Ruonan complained, asking why he couldn't get through to him just now?Finally, I told Chen Yang to come over to pick him up quickly, saying that my mother had been persuaded by her to go home.

Without further ado, Chen Yang rushed all the way back to Yanjing Hotel.

Ten minutes later, he parked the Jeep on the side of the street.A comrade from the traffic police immediately stepped forward, but after turning around, he left obediently without saying a word, probably for visiting rather than issuing a ticket.

I called Chen Ruonan, and after dawdling for 10 minutes, the mother and daughter finally came out.Chen Yang knew that his adoptive mother was very particular, so he hurriedly got out of the car and opened the door for Ms. Li. [

On the way home, Ms. Li seemed dissatisfied with Chen Yang's refusal of her proposal before, her expression was cold, and even Chen Ruonan didn't have a good face, looking at Chen Yang was like facing an enemy of the people.

Talking all the way, Chen Yang drove the car back to Zhongnan Compound.

The courtyard is a bit deserted, and this mysterious super-large courtyard is probably the least youthful place in the world.

The three of them entered the house together, Chen Yaohua was reading in the study room, under normal circumstances, he was very taboo to be disturbed by others while reading in the study room.On the other hand, sister Xu, the nanny, was busy making dumplings in the kitchen alone. When she saw Ms. Li, sister Xu was obviously more cautious. It seemed that she was also very afraid of this strong hostess.

"Ma'am, you are back."

"En." Ms. Li nodded, and waved her hand lightly, "Xiao Xu, you should go back first."

"Yes, ma'am." Sister Xu bowed and withdrew. This is what the leaders of their unit have instructed thousands of times. When working as a servant in this kind of place, remember to do more and talk less.Speaking of which, Sister Xu is a super professional chef trained by the Friendship Hotel, and she is definitely a famous chef outside.

The noise in the living room did not affect Chen Yaohua who was reading in the study at all. Ms. Li seemed to know her husband's character, so she turned around and went upstairs without saying much.After a while, she changed into her home clothes and came down, saying to Chen Yang: "Xiao Yang, come with me to the kitchen, I have something to ask you."

Chen Yang and Chen Ruonan followed Ms. Li obediently and entered the kitchen together. Seeing her daughter following in, Ms. Li stopped and frowned slightly, "Ruo Nan, go back upstairs Going to practice piano, what does it look like for a girl to come into the kitchen?"

"Oh, yes, Mom." Chen Ruonan obediently responded, turned around and went upstairs.

Chen Yang cursed inwardly, Mom, did you make a mistake, if girls don't enter the kitchen, who will enter?Chen Ruonan is spoiled by you, he can't do any housework except washing the dishes.Yes, she is very good at playing the piano, but she doesn't rely on it to make money, what a pity!It's true to see more recipes!

Slandering in his stomach, but not daring to show any displeasure on his face, he followed Ms. Li into the kitchen and started making dumplings.

The New Year in the north cannot be without dumplings, and thousands of households are the same.

In Chen Yang's memory, except for making dumplings, her adoptive mother knew no other dishes, and Chen Ruonan was even worse, she couldn't even make dumplings.

Ms. Li made the dumplings gracefully, as if she was playing with a work of art, and she asked, "Xiao Yang, I heard from Ruonan earlier that you have a girlfriend now. Is there such a thing?"

Chen Yang felt chills in his heart, and secretly scolded Chen Ruonan for being a gossip, but replied seriously, "Yes, Mom."

"My opinion is that you and that girl are not suitable." Ms. Li put down a freshly made dumpling and said lightly.

When Chen Yang heard this, a fire burned in his heart. Since he was a child, his adoptive mother would interfere in every detail of his affairs. Yesterday, his adoptive father said a harsh word. Today it is her turn, and he Both are people who are used to speaking in a commanding tone, and what they say is extremely awkward. If this continues, the family really can't stay.He put down the rolling pin forcefully, and asked, "Mom, you haven't even met Xiang Jin, how do you know I'm not suitable for her?"

Ms. Li was slightly taken aback, feeling a little strange in her heart, what happened to her son today, who refused to listen to persuasion one after another?Immediately afterwards, he said with a displeased face: "Xiao Yang, you don't need to say any more, I have already made arrangements for your marriage. I think you should be very clear that being born in a big family like ours, you can't help but do whatever you want." How did it come about. If you don’t listen to persuasion, I will use my method to achieve the effect I want, can you understand?” [

Of course Chen Yang understood.

He knew very well what his adoptive mother's words implied, but if he couldn't even protect his own woman, then what kind of man was he?

This time, he couldn't control it anymore, and looked straight at his adoptive mother, "Mom, I know what you think, but I just want to live the kind of life I want, and I'm just raised by you." "

"presumptuous!"

Ms. Li interrupted Chen Yang sharply, turned her head, and her shoulders twitched slightly.

Chen Yang was taken aback. He didn't expect that his adoptive mother, who had always been rational, arrogant and strong, would suddenly lose control, and he had never seen his adoptive mother shed a tear when he grew up. When others were injured, every time it was the adoptive mother who helped me stand up against the pressure of the other parent, a deep sense of shame suddenly surged in my heart, and I hurried over, put my hands on the adoptive mother's shoulders, and apologized: "I'm sorry. , Mom, I shouldn't say that, but I really don't mean anything else, in my heart, you are no different from your own mother. "

Ms. Li took Chen Yang's hand away, stood up abruptly, turned around and walked upstairs quickly.

In less than half a minute, Chen Ruonan rushed down from upstairs with a dark face, and asked Chen Yang loudly, "Chen Yang, what did you say to your mother just now?"

Chen Yang was filled with guilt, and responded to Chen Ruonan's questioning.

"Say it quickly!" Chen Ruonan grabbed Chen Yang's clothes relentlessly, and she liked to do this whenever she got angry since she was a child.

Chen Yang sighed, pushed Chen Ruonan's hand away, and said naively, "Chen Ruonan, I'm doing this for your own good, do you understand?"

Chen Ruonan was taken aback for a moment, not understanding what this meant, what was for my own good?

"Forget it, I can't explain it to you, but you will know later!" Chen Yang waved his hands irritably, and quickly ran to the second floor.

Knocked twice on the door of the master bedroom, but there was no response, so Chen Yang simply opened the door and walked in.

"Mom!" Chen Yang yelled, then walked to the bed, bowed his head and said, "Mom, I'm sorry, don't be angry."

Ms. Li was sitting on the edge of the bed, wiping her tears with a tissue. She raised her head after hearing the sound, looked at Chen Yang for a while, and seemed to be less angry. She held Chen Yang's hand, and sighed, "Xiao Yang, didn't mom want to I want to interfere in your life, I'm doing it for the good of both of you. I don't have to force you if you don't want to go to Shenzhen City, but I've already made arrangements for your marriage, so don't make me angry anymore, okay? "

Chen Yang knew that the "you two" mentioned by his adoptive mother definitely did not refer to him and Xiang Jin, but now he did not dare to make his adoptive mother angry anymore, so he nodded and said, "Mom, don't worry, just like you did just now, how could I How dare I make you angry."

Ms. Li just smiled and nodded in satisfaction.

Seeing his adoptive mother's smile, Chen Yang felt a little uncomfortable, and at the same time felt vaguely cheated.

"Mom, have you found a marriage for Chen Yang?" Chen Ruonan interjected curiously, "Is it someone from our compound? Is it Xiao Xiao, Zhang Xiaolan or Sun Tian?"

A series of names came out of Chen Ruonan's mouth, which made Chen Yang shudder when he heard it. If he really wanted to marry the legendary daughters she mentioned, shit, it would be better to marry Chen Ruonan!At least know the bottom line.

Ms. Li looked at her daughter lovingly, touched her head, and said with a meaningful smile: "Don't guess, silly girl!" [

The dinner was dumplings made by Ms. Li herself. The conflict between Chen Yaohua and Ms. Li was still there, but due to the presence of their children, the two people with strong personalities controlled their emotions rationally. I had a simple New Year's Eve dinner in the dining room, chatting about some secrets that cannot be heard in ordinary people's homes. Of course, the happy and festive atmosphere in ordinary people's homes is absolutely not seen here.

In the family of powerful officials, family affection is often ignored at all.This is something that can’t be helped. For example, the old man at home has to attend various official activities every major festival. The uncles in the army are also busier than one. The big family has been busy for several years. I didn't get together for the holidays, and sometimes even the phone calls for New Year's greetings were omitted, and I couldn't be busy at all.If it wasn't for the fact that Chen Yaohua retired from the General Staff after his leg was disabled, this meal might not have existed at all.

After dinner, Chen Yaohua and Ms. Li went into the study and locked the door behind them.Chen Yang and Chen Ruonan could even hear the fierce quarrel coming from inside when they were sitting in the living room watching the Spring Festival Gala after taking a shower.The two looked at each other and looked at each other, and they both saw a trace of negativity in each other's eyes. Perhaps, they shouldn't have brought Ms. Li back.

During the Spring Festival Gala in 95, Hua Tsai's song "Forgetting Love" was very popular. Chen Yang watched Hua Tsai's old-fashioned outfit on TV, and remembered a very famous cold joke, and couldn't help laughing.

"Chen Yang, what are you laughing at?" Chen Ruonan was a little strange.

"Do you know who gave Wangqing Water?" Chen Yang asked with a sly smile.

"Who?" Chen Ruonan was hooked.

"Aha!" Chen Yang was serious.

"Aha?" Chen Ruonan's eyes widened.

"Aha, give me a glass of Wangqing water!" Chen Yang sang a sentence, with accents on the first two words.

Chen Ruonan was startled at first, but she was very smart, and immediately turned around, couldn't help but sneered, stretched out her hand to pat Chen Yang, and spat, "You can really talk nonsense!"

Chen Ruonan usually sneers or ridicules, and rarely smiles from the heart like this one. This smile is like a fragrant lily blooming, coupled with that delicate face that is as smooth as makeup and pink, although it does not apply makeup, the color But like the morning glow reflecting the snow, the faint fragrance of virginity looms

Chen Yang couldn't help his heart fluttering, thinking of the scene of the two of them lying on the big bed together watching TV after marriage in the previous life, he stretched out his hand reflexively and grabbed Chen Ruonan's slender hand that was patted on his shoulder, and subconsciously held her soft hand. The soft body moved into his arms, and he touched Chen Ruonan's upturned chest, and squeezed it twice, um, it feels really good.

"what!"

Chen Ruonan blushed, screamed, struggled in panic, and whispered, "What are you doing? Let me go!"

Chen Yang woke up suddenly, regretting what he had done just now!Hastily let go in embarrassment.

Bang!

There was a muffled sound, both of them were startled, they sat up straight quickly, and tugged on their respective nightgowns.

The study door opened, and Ms. Li leaned out half of her body, looked at the two on the sofa with a strange expression, and asked, "Ruo Nan, what did you call just now?"

"Mom, no, it's all right!"

Chen Ruonan lowered his head and gritted his teeth, saying it's all right, what else can she do besides knocking out the teeth and swallowing the blood, could she tell her mother that her younger brother molested her just now?This loss is really unjust.

Ms. Li frowned, muttered, and closed the study door again.

As soon as the study door was closed, Chen Ruonan immediately turned his head and glared at Chen Yang angrily: "You", it seemed that she was too angry to speak.

Chen Yang waved his hands again and again and said, "I'm sorry, it was a misunderstanding just now, a small misunderstanding, just treat it as chalk and erase it!"

While speaking, he had already stood up from the sofa, and ran towards the stairs as if fleeing.

"Chen Yang, stop for me!"

Chen Ruonan got up after him, wanted to chase after him but didn't know what to say, so he stomped his feet on the ground resentfully.
