Not making buns for many years

After all, it was a birthday banquet, so Jiang Shaoming entered the house after standing still for a while.

It stands to reason that both of them have been out for so long, and the birthday banquet has just been seated, so it must have started long ago.But for some reason, when they entered, the chat started again, and several friends of Second Uncle Zhuo talked about the old days.Although Zhuo Rui's friends have never experienced it, they are all well-educated young people, and they listened carefully.

Jiang Shaoming looked at the enthusiastic situation, and didn't go inside, but stopped at the door instead.In the end, Aunt Chrysanthemum, who had been busy all the time, saw it and said to him, "Just go in, and wait for you two."

Aunt Chrysanthemum looks ordinary, but she is very friendly.Jiang Shaoming thanked him and wanted to sneak in.As a result, Aunt Chrysanthemum stopped him again. "Shaoming, just wait."

Jiang Shaoming's footsteps stopped slightly, and then he saw Aunt Juhua bring out two cakes from the kitchen and hand them to him.Aunt Chrysanthemum smiled and said to him, "Breakfast is almost digested at this point, let's put some on it first. Your second uncle's table is all drinkable, and I will definitely let you drink when the time comes, so you won't get drunk if you eat something." .”

That's... so sweet.

Jiang Shaoming is not afraid of drinking - he always thinks he can drink well!But drinking on an empty stomach is really bad.However, older men seem to like this, so he quickly took it, picked up a piece and tasted it, and immediately gave Aunt Chrysanthemum a thumbs up, "It's so delicious. Auntie, you are so kind."

Aunt Chrysanthemum smiled even more amiably, and said to him, "Eat slowly, we have to talk over there for a while, and I'll bring you a glass of warm water."

Jiang Shaoming was a little flattered, and quickly thanked, "Thank you, Aunt Chrysanthemum."

Aunt Chrysanthemum nearly lost sight of her smile, and said to him, "Thank you, why are you so polite, you should."

How should it be?

After Jiang Shaoming ate two pieces of pastry, when he touched it and sat down, he couldn't figure out why the Zhuo family was so polite.It's just that his seat is on the right side of Second Uncle Zhuo, and Zhuo Rui, as the host, is at the table with his friend, so Jiang Shaoming and Zhuo Rui are not at the same table.He couldn't ask if he wanted to.

This birthday banquet is said to be a birthday banquet, but it is actually a small gathering. Second Uncle Zhuo lives in the suburbs all year round and has lived a hard life. He is not interested in those luxurious banquets at all, so he chose to hold them at home.Also because of the relaxation and unrestraint, as expected, after opening the table for a while, the drink here has already been drunk.

Uncle Zhuo called Jiang Shaoming over just now to be friendly with him, but now it's not a good job.Because Second Uncle Zhuo liked Jiang Shaoming, his friends naturally also liked Jiang Shaoming, and Zhuo Rui was at the other table, so naturally he was the one to feed him.Jiang Shaoming didn't worry about it, he would toast to others when they poured water on him.

Zhuo Rui was sitting at the other table, and before he could complete a sentence, he heard the commotion on the opposite side, turned his head and saw Jiang Shaoming standing there, clinking glasses with someone with a smile.

If you don't know him well, for example, his father is nearby, just think that Jiang Shaoming is a good drinker and loves to drink.But Zhuo Rui knew what he looked like when he was drunk. Just looking at him like this, he knew that he was not drinking well, but he was confused, and he would not refuse anyone who came.

Firstly, Zhuo Rui was afraid that he would be poured too much and hurt himself, and secondly, he was afraid that he would make a fuss, which would be really bad, so he quickly stood up and walked over.Said to Uncle Wang who was drinking with Jiang Shaoming, "Uncle, I have something to do, I have to let him handle it, I will drink with you later."

They didn't know that these two people were actually the bosses of the two companies, they just thought it was true, so they were fooled by Zhuo Rui and asked to rescue them.Zhuo Rui took him directly to his room on the second floor, opened the door to let him in, and then asked, "Are you all right?"

But obviously, it was already too late, he turned his head and closed the door after speaking, before he could turn his head, he heard Jiang Shaoming calling him Brother Rui.Jiang Shaoming calls these two words differently from others, it is very greasy and sweet, in Wu Lianfang's words, it is unbearable.But Jiang Shaoming was drunk, and his voice was different. When he shouted, it was soft and soft, but he lost the arrogance of a little bastard, and became a pitiful little bastard.

He turned his head and saw that Jiang Shaoming had picked up the water glass on his coffee table at some point, probably took a sip, and complained to him wrinkling his nose, "This is not wine. Where did you hide it?"

Zhuo Rui patted his head, he didn't think it was very good at the time, but unfortunately his father liked it again, so he thought about starting the game before calling him away.It turned out that I didn't expect that if I didn't pay attention, the movement over there was too fast.

He coaxed Jiang Shaoming, "This is wine, new wine."

Who knew that Jiang Shaoming was still very shrewd when he was drunk. Although he changed into a pitiful appearance, this guy snorted and said, "You lied to me, this is plain water. Wine!"

As he said that, he started to wander around the room, ready to search.

Zhuo Rui didn't want him to go downstairs, so he had no choice but to go to the small refrigerator in his study and get him a concoction.Only then was Jiang Shaoming willing, and he took a sip of the magnificence, and then started the next step, "Brother Rui, why don't you drink, you don't accompany me."

There are still a bunch of guests under Zhuo Rui who need to be greeted, of course they can't stay here for a long time, so just say to him, "You have a drink first, I will go down to deal with some things, and I will come up to accompany you later."

Jiang Shaoming didn't want to, so he stood in front of him with a can, dangling to the ground all the time, and asked him, "Why don't you drink with me, don't you like me?"

Again!

Zhuo Rui thought of his answer on the Qixi Festival last time, "I didn't, you're drunk, so why don't you drink it?" Jiang Shaoming asked again and again, "Do you not like me?" In the end He had no choice but to answer, "I like you." Then Jiang Shaoming became honest.

So this time, Zhuo Rui simply skipped the long process, and could only tie his hands to support Jiang Shaoming, and at the same time said to him, "I like you, but I have something to do, can you drink first?"

He thought this would be enough, but he never thought that Jiang Shaoming was still excited. When he heard this, he sat down on the sofa, sipped his wine and said to him aggrievedly, "Why are you like this? You like me and you still don't stay with me." Drinking? Are you going to accompany others?"

Zhuo Rui: ...Why does it sound like he is cheating?

Does he know how long Jiang Shaoming can last like this? There are still people waiting below.There was really no other way, so Zhuo Rui simply went into the room and got a bottle of high-quality liquor, poured a glass for Jiang Shaoming and him, and then said to him, "Come on, let's have a drink." Jiang Shaoming was greedy when he saw wine, Immediately clinked glasses obediently with him, before Zhuo Rui could drink it, he drank it down with a gulp.As a result, his drinking capacity was really limited, and he fell asleep immediately after drinking a glass.

Zhuo Rui heaved a sigh of relief.But seeing him bent over the coffee table, obviously this movement was very uncomfortable, Zhuo Rui thought about it, and simply went up to lift him up and put him on his bed.

Afraid that he was holding back, he untied his tie, but when undoing the first button of the collar, for some reason, Jiang Shaoming suddenly opened his eyes, Zhuo Rui was startled, but fortunately Jiang Shaoming immediately opened his eyes. It closed, only Zhuo Rui was still there, and his heart beat faster: what happened to me, why did it feel like I did something bad?

Waiting for Zhuo Rui to come down, his father asked a question, Zhuo Rui told him about Jiang Shaoming's light drinking and let him fall asleep, his father sent Aunt Chrysanthemum to make hangover soup for Jiang Shaoming, and then Finish.

Because all the guests were friends, the birthday party was extremely enjoyable, and it was already three o'clock in the afternoon when it was over.Zhuo Junya drank a lot of wine, but fortunately he had a good capacity for alcohol, but he was not drunk, so he sat on the sofa drinking tea to sober himself up.Zhuo Rui, on the other hand, sent the guests away one after another.

While waiting for him to come back, it's time to deal with another matter - his grandma is still locked in the sun room.Fortunately, it was already cool now, and the air conditioner was turned on there, so it wouldn't make her feel stuffy.Moreover, Aunt Chrysanthemum even brought some food in to avoid getting caught. According to her, although the old lady looked weak, she was actually in good health and was always in good spirits.

Just now, Zhuo Rui didn't let go because she was afraid that the old lady would lead people to yell and yell.It's over now, Zhuo Rui didn't want her to see his father, so he simply went to the sun room and wanted to get him away.

It turned out that the driver and the nanny were still there, but the old lady was gone, and so was Da Liu. Only Dali was waiting there.

When Dali saw him, he said with a bitter face, "The old man came over just now, and said he was the one who took care of this matter, and asked Da Liu to send her there, and let me watch here."

Zhuo Rui knew right away that he thought he handled it properly, after all, it was a waste of time, and his father probably noticed it.It's just that I took the overall situation into consideration and was considerate of his intentions, so I didn't say it out loud.

His anger came out - his father's life was not easy, and he was willing to celebrate his birthday with great difficulty, but because of the old lady, he forced a smile on his face. It was simply... If it wasn't for his own grandma, he really wanted to scold him.

Right now, he was definitely going to have a fight with the old lady. The old lady was so strong in combat, and he was afraid that his father would suffer, so he hurried back to the villa.Sure enough, Aunt Chrysanthemum was also waiting for him anxiously, and when she saw him, she said, "In the study, your father's face is extremely ugly. He just drank a lot of wine, so don't get mad."

Zhuo Rui went directly upstairs to the study.

He left in a hurry, and was about to open the door when he reached the door—his father used the study room for writing and writing, and it was always closed, but this time, it was actually locked.He didn't open it.

In desperation, Zhuo Rui could only knock on the door and yelled, "Dad!"

Fortunately, Zhuo Junya didn't completely cut him off. After a while, the door slammed open, but his father showed a serious face and said to him, "I'm talking to your grandma, you don't need to come in."

"Dad!" Zhuo Rui didn't want to, he said directly, "Your heart is not good, and she is getting old, what if you two quarrel and something happens. I'll go in, okay? I'll listen and don't say a word. "

There is indeed this hidden danger.

Zhuo Junya nodded after thinking about it, and told him, "Just listen. This is my grudge with her. You, a junior, don't get involved."

Zhuo Rui could only respond.So, he followed behind his father and entered the house.

This room is a complete set of rosewood furniture, very antique.Zhuo Rui went in and saw that the old lady's wheelchair was in front of his father's desk, and she was turning her head to look at him at the moment, with an angry face, obviously expressing her anger at what happened to her just now.

Zhuo Rui promised his father not to say anything, so he didn't say anything, just found a place at random, and sat down.His father returned to his desk again, and after sitting down, he said to the old lady, "Mom, Xiao Rui just stands aside and doesn't make a sound, so you can just pretend that he doesn't exist. Let's move on."

The old lady snorted, but Zhuo Junya said, "Mom, what do you think, just tell me directly. We haven't lived together for more than thirty years, I can't guess what you think."

The old lady was silent just now, but she wanted Zhuo Junya to give an explanation for what Zhuo Rui and Jiang Shaoming did.After all, she is an elder, she is her own mother.How could he have imagined that this son, who was the most considerate since he was a child, passed by without even mentioning it.She only felt that the anger that had been suppressed so easily flooded up again, but there was no occasion for her to express it.

What is she here for? She's here for help.

So she was locked in the sun room just now, and she didn't leave.Although it was unsuccessful to force the second child to take care of her in public, there is no benefit to doing it. She thought clearly that under such circumstances, she could still cry with the second child, complain about her pity, and make the second child feel better. My heart softened and I took care of her.

Because of this, Zhuo Rui already disliked her so much, if she can't annoy her second child anymore, then there is really nothing she can do.

She could only say honestly, "I know you have grievances. I told Xiao Rui just now, and I know I was wrong. I'm sorry for you. It's because my mother was too self-righteous at the time and took too much control. You have suffered so much. If you are willing, just like Xiao Rui, scold me to vent your anger, I have no problem. "

Zhuo Rui next to him didn't bother, why did he just curse, the old lady really knows how to put on a hat.

Fortunately, Zhuo Junya got to know her son better, and said to her directly, "Mom, Zhuo Rui has been polite since he was a child. Even if he hates someone, he won't scold you. You are thinking too much. As for me, Not to mention 30 years ago, even 20 years ago, when Xiao Rui's mother was still there, if you said that to me, I promise to forgive you without any stuttering. After all, she is such a good woman, although we It's fine, but I hope she can get the approval of her parents-in-law and be the daughter-in-law of Zhuo's family."

Zhuo Junya is not like Jiang Shaoming who is young and energetic, nor is he like him who is eloquent, who can block people to death with his mouth, every word can stab people's hearts.But Zhuo Junya has his abilities, he speaks calmly and slowly, not forcefully, but every word he says is real.

"But the person I care about is dead, and my son has grown up and become independent. I have experienced all the hardships and sufferings in my life. What do you want me to forgive?" Zhuo Junya just looked at it like that Looking at the old lady, he asked her, "Forgive me for not being recognized by the Zhuo family until my death? Forgive my son for dying and not being treated by the Zhuo family? Or forgive me all my life for marrying my beloved because of disobedience?" People, abandoned by their parents? Neither."

Where did the old lady think that Zhuo Junya actually said such a thing, she wanted to explain, "At that time, I thought you were playing tricks, so no one opened the door. I didn't mean not to save Xiaorui. He is my grandson after all. .I won't..." She met Zhuo Junya's gaze when she was speaking halfway.

There was a kind of disappreciation and disgust in his eyes, as if to say, "You are such a liar. I won't believe it at all."

The old lady's words suddenly stopped, she knew that this was hopeless, and finally revealed her most vulnerable and true side, "Don't be like this, second child, your eldest brother went in, and third brother is like that again, I You are the only son. In order to deal with that girl Zhuo Shu, I called my nephew here, but I never expected that they would want shares in the Zhuo family. I have been spoiled by your father for a lifetime. I can't give them things from the Zhuo family. But I was forced to do nothing. I finally came out today. Please help me. I know I was wrong. Your daughter-in-law's grave can be moved back at any time. Please help I, no, just help your dad, don't let him waste so many years of hard work. Just for your dad, okay? "

"Mom, you are embarrassing me," Zhuo Junya said, "I am 55 years old. When people get older and get closer to the loess, they will become selfish. Just like you, if you don't want to Let me marry the girl you like, and want to control the elder brother and the third younger brother for the rest of my life, how can you throw me out. You are so selfish that you find that I am out of control, so you don't want me. I am now your original age, and you still When I got older, I became so selfish too.

For so many years, I have felt sorry for my son. Because I missed my wife, I didn't manage him well, let alone run the business well. I let him support such a big stall by himself shortly after he became an adult, but he not only endured Come here and give me a more stable life.

So, for the sake of my son, I can only be a little more selfish.You want me to return to the Zhuo family, this is impossible.It is impossible for me to bring my young and promising son into that mess and let him suffer from such filth.It is also impossible for me to merge Ruifu Jewelry, which my son managed so easily, with such a rotten enterprise, so that his career will be disturbed.Since I was kicked out 30 years ago, I have never thought about the shares of Zhuojia. You can give it to whoever you think is suitable, and I will not participate in it.Just stop here, Mom, I'll let Xiaorui take you out. "

After speaking, he stood up and prepared to leave.

Where did the old lady think that she was already like this, and the second child was still unwilling to die. She just felt hopeless, but also felt extremely angry, and couldn't help but yelled at Zhuo Junya, "You can forgive me , I was wrong, did you treat your father like this? Your father didn't feel sorry for you, did he, he also left [-]% of the shares for you. "

As soon as the sound fell, Zhuo Junya stood still.

He turned his head, with a complicated expression on his face. The old lady thought it was talking to him, but unexpectedly, Zhuo Junya said, "Mom, why did you call me when he was not alive for the [-]% shares?" Go back. It’s not a question of whether I live right or wrong. This disaster of the Zhuo family, from the beginning to the end, is all out of my father’s hands. He knows how incompetent, greedy, selfish and selfish you are. What a mistake, but because he loves you, he has never restrained or stopped you. He only cares about how comfortable he is when he is alive, but he doesn't care what the Zhuo family will be like after his death. This is the price. I Can't handle it."

After speaking, Zhuo Junya left.

With the sound of the door slamming shut, Zhuo Rui could see with the naked eye that the old lady's head, which was struggling to straighten, suddenly softened at this moment.He heard a sentence, "Is it wrong?"
