Life is more than just living

On the way back, Chen Xu was not as happy as before. She said apologetically: "Brother, am I very heartless? I rarely think about Han Yidao recently, and I almost forget about this past." Unexpectedly, Liu Jingsheng said: "You did it Very good! I remember you once said to me, you have to live well. To live well is to live in the present and look forward. Don't reminisce about the pain. A lot of pain is caused by the constant review of previous dissatisfaction. Why do you want to be with me? Can't make it on your own? Look at how nice the weather is today, the wind is sunny, and there is such a beautiful spring scenery, why should you be melancholy?" Liu Jingsheng's words made Chen Xu's melancholy disappear.

Liu Jingsheng asked Chen Xu what he wanted to eat. Chen Xu smiled and said, "Brother, let me cook for you. I'm here to buy ingredients this time. Don't buy too much, otherwise I will go back to work and the remaining ingredients will be wasted." Unexpectedly, Liu Jingsheng said: " There's no need to buy it. I have ingredients in the refrigerator, and I've been learning to cook recently." Chen Xu looked at him in surprise, "Really? Then I want to check it today to see how you did it?" Liu Jingsheng said. : "Who said you wanted to cook for me just now? I can try making a dish. Although it's not very good, it can be cooked. I remember last time you said you wanted me to learn to cook. I You will live a good life in the future. I want to be your strong backing. First of all, I have to live a good life."

When Chen Xu arrived at Liu Jingsheng's residence, she changed her shoes and ran to the balcony to look at the beautiful flowers. Liu Jingsheng took good care of the flowers, and Chen Xu was full of praises. Liu Jingsheng was very pleased to see the childish Chen Xu.

The two of them cooked lunch together. Liu Jingsheng only cooked one dish, which was simple scrambled eggs. The taste was not satisfactory. Chen Xu was very happy to eat the food cooked by his brother. After the meal, while Chen Xu was cleaning the battlefield, Liu Jingsheng washed the fruits for her. The fruits were all bought when he came back.

Feeling a little tired from going to the countryside in the morning, Chen Xu leaned on the sofa and found a comfortable position. Liu Jingsheng handed her a stuffed toy and asked seemingly casually, "Have you been unhappy at work recently?" Chen Xu took the doll and answered unconsciously: "Yes!" After speaking, he was suddenly startled. , why did you tell the truth all of a sudden?

Seeing Liu Jingsheng looking at her, Chen Xu said with embarrassment, "I have a little trouble at work, isn't it common? Didn't I always complain to you before? It's normal." Liu Jingsheng leaned on the other side of the sofa and watched. Looking at Chen Xu, "You are getting more and more mature now, and you want to bear everything by yourself, but what is your brother going to do?"

Chen Xu adjusted his sitting posture again and said, "Brother, don't be angry. I think it's good to have a brother who loves me, but I am an independent living being. Even if I can't become a big tree, I would rather be a grass than a silkworm." ." Liu Jingsheng laughed, "Okay! That's great! My sister has backbone. But you don't mind if my brother is in charge of things. I have to know what's going on. As a brother, I have the right to know, right?"

Chen Xu looked at Liu Jingsheng weakly and said, "Brother, you have to promise me not to be angry." Liu Jingsheng smiled helplessly, "When have I ever been really angry with you?" So Chen Xu told what happened in recent days. Told Liu Jingsheng. Liu Jingsheng was stunned after hearing this. She didn't expect that in order to make Chen Xu's situation better at the work unit, she gave some small gifts to her boss and colleagues, but instead caused Chen Xu trouble. Seeing that Liu Jingsheng was speechless for a while, Chen Xu quickly said: "Brother, you must not feel guilty or blame yourself. This matter is not your problem at all, but the relationship between these two people. See what they mean now. They seem to have fallen out. So, the man named Wang has thoughts about me, and the gift-giving thing is just a pretext. Without this thing, there will be other things. It has nothing to do with you. Don’t take it on yourself. Responsibility. In addition, I didn’t handle it properly. Many things came together, but fortunately Brother Lin came forward to help me solve it."

Liu Jingsheng remained silent for a long time. Seeing that he didn't speak, Chen Xu was very anxious. He quickly sat up straight, hugged Liu Jingsheng's arm and said, "Didn't you tell me that the source of pain is entangled with those things in the past? My matter has been solved, and it is no longer the case now. It's a problem, don't think about it, okay?" Liu Jingsheng shook his head, "But I'm not qualified to be a brother!" Chen Xu said, "Don't say that, I really treat you as my brother, but many things are still I have to face it myself. Don't you want a very powerful sister?" Liu Jingsheng looked at her distressedly and said, "Who can be invincible? What if you are weak? You are alone there these days. Bear that, you are no longer alone, you have family."

Chen Xu still held Liu Jingsheng's arm, "Brother, I know that if you knew about this matter from the beginning, you would definitely try every means to help me solve it, but my father's identity is there, and our family members will be intimidated when they come forward. It’s changed, so I want to handle it myself, and in short, these things are in the past.”

Liu Jingsheng suddenly said: "Can you help me introduce him? I want to meet your brother Lin. I can't let you live in his house without knowing anything. I can buy that house." Chen Xu shook his head and said, " Brother, don’t worry about me. When my service period expires, I will prepare to participate in the civil service selection and pass the exam to be with my parents and you. If you buy that house, it may be even worse by then. After all, Brother Lin has been involved in gangs. , having too many interactions with him is not good for Dad. Don’t worry, I will protect myself well. At least for now, Brother Lin’s connections in Longcheng are still unknown. In this matter, he Yun Danfeng It was solved with light force and no bloodshed." Liu Jingsheng said dissatisfied: "But this sacrifices your reputation." Chen Xu lowered his head and said, "My reputation is not that important. Brother, don't worry about me. I don't care!"

In the evening the brother and sister returned to their parents' place for dinner. Chen Xu was very favored and loved by the whole family. Even the nanny thought the girl was cute.

Time passed quickly, and Sunday arrived in a blink of an eye. Chen Xu reluctantly left. She was going back to work.

When Chen Xu returned to Longcheng, she discovered that the biggest problem at present was that it was a bit far for her to go to work. Because Lin Zhiyuan's house is in the suburbs, the people who live here are either rich or expensive, and everyone has a car, so there are no buses there. Chen Xu thought over and over again and decided to get up earlier every day, walk down the mountain and take a car.

Unexpectedly, Chen Xu met Lin Zhiyuan just when he went out the next morning. Lin Zhiyuan asked if he wanted to go to work? Chen Xu nodded. Lin Zhiyuan said I would give you a ride on the way. Chen Xu said repeatedly: "No, Brother Lin, just go about your business, I can do it myself." Unexpectedly, Lin Zhiyuan said: "It's not like you don't know that you can't get a taxi here. Follow my arrangements. Otherwise, if you were running around to catch the bus, it wouldn't be like you have that kind of relationship with me! You would be a gangster." Chen Xu sounded a little awkward, but also a little warm. Lin Zhiyuan thought things through very carefully and taught himself something. On Chen Xu's first day back at work, many people thought she was just taking a vacation. Lin Zhiyuan sent Chen Xu to the door of the procuratorate like a demonstration. In the days that followed, a dedicated person was responsible for picking up and dropping off Chen Xu. The only thing Chen Xu didn't get used to was that the visitor actually called Chen Xu "sister-in-law."
