Improv [Rebirth]

Duan Rujin persuaded him while taking him home.She felt that her son had become like a child again, relying on her and acting like a baby.She felt distressed, and at the same time, she was somewhat sighed and faintly happy.

Chen Yan was precocious, and he didn't want to get close to her since he was very young.Later, when I grew up and was willing to talk to my mother again, she fell ill again, and my son had to worry about it.

"Are you angry outside? Being bullied?"

Duan Rujin brought him a bowl of soup.

"Your mother has been up since morning, waiting for you to come back." Chen Kezhuang said.

Chen Yan wiped away his tears and drank the soup, the heat burned the grievance in his heart.

After the decline of the Chen family, they have been far away from their previous life circle. Not to mention that few of those old friends are willing to see them, and Chen Kezhuang himself is too lazy to be angry.

The community they live in is mostly students and office workers who work from [-] to [-]. Chen Kezhuang rented a shop nearby to sell some food and daily necessities.

When Duan Rujin was in poor health, the shop would not open. He took care of him in the hospital from morning till night. When Duan Rujin was in good health, they would watch the shop together. In the morning, they would make a few breakfasts and sell them in boxes to neighbors who went to school and work.Later, I started a new business, making bento for lunch and dinner, and the business was also good.

Chen Yan asked him: "Dad, you were used to being a boss before, but now you work late at night and earn little, are you uncomfortable?"

"I'm also the boss now," Chen Kezhuang looked at it openly, "Didn't you see so many bankrupt people jumping off the building? Your mother and I are healthy and can support ourselves, but if it drags you too much, that's luck!"

Chen Yan drank the soup to the bottom, and praised his mother: "The craftsmanship is getting better and better!"

"That's right," Duan Rujin said proudly, "This is your grandma's kung fu. If I pick it up after leaving it behind for so many years, I'm not the one who lost her."

"It's our honor that you can cook for us," Chen Kezhuang said with a smile, and looked at Chen Yan again, "It's just that this skill was broken when your mother came here, and it will probably be lost in the future."

Chen Yan was about to say that I can cook, but he remembered why he could cook and who he cooked for, so he was in no mood to mention it again.

"Xiao Yan, why were you crying just now?" Duan Rujin asked worriedly, she would not feel at ease if she didn't ask today.

"It's nothing, the script I wrote was scolded by the boss."

"Oh." Duan Rujin heaved a sigh of relief, she thought the matter would not be so simple, otherwise Chen Yan shouldn't have cried so badly, but the essence is that the boss makes the employees angry, it's not a big deal.

"Did you come back after being scolded by the boss?" Chen Kezhuang asked, "That's not okay, how can any employee not be scolded, you are the original father's subordinates, they all support you?"

"What are you talking about?" Duan Rujin glared at him, "He just came back, so don't say a few words."

Chen Kezhuang pouted, disapproving.Chen Yan was spoiled by his mother, grandparents and grandparents.

"No, I went back after two days of rest. It's a normal parole, not a prison escape." Chen Yan joked.

He wanted to find an opportunity to slowly tell Chen Kezhuang and Duan Rujin about him and Qi Andong, so that they would accept it gradually and not be stimulated.

That night he was lying on the bed at home and had his first good dream in many days.

He dreamed that the doctor said that Duan Rujin had recovered from his illness, so he went home happily, and stayed at home with his parents for the rest of his life.

He dreamed that he wrote some scripts intermittently, just to make ends meet and make life easier for his family of three.

Of course, the most important thing is that he never saw those people in Beijing again, including Qi Andong.

The atmosphere in the dream was calm and serene, and he was so happy that he almost shed tears.

Chen Yan finally knew what his wish was, he wanted to stay away from that circle and live peacefully.

To be mediocre, to accomplish nothing, to end up in a dull life—sounds very dishonorable, and none of the men and women around him would like it.He didn't like it in his previous life, but only after living it once did he realize that this is the greatest gift from heaven, and it is an ending that can only be achieved by luck in a lifetime.

Compared with it, hatred, dreams, entanglement with Qi Andong, and even friendship with his junior and younger brothers are nothing.

They had guests at home after lunch.

"No one came to the door for a year, and Xiao Yan will have distinguished guests when he comes back." Duan Rujin smiled.

"What kind of distinguished guest am I!" Uncle Li put down the things in his hand, "Madam, how are you?"

"Stop calling Madam, you won't drive Lao Chen anymore, besides, you are not an outsider."

"Yes," Chen Kezhuang said, "it's rare that you still remember our old couple."

Now that Uncle Li is here, Duan Rujin is busy cooking a table of delicious dishes.

Chen Kezhuang went outside to buy a live chicken, squatted on the ground and groaned about beheading it.Seeing his hard work, Chen Yan snatched the knife from his hand: "Let me cook, you go outside and chat with Uncle Li."

"You know how to cook?" Chen Kezhuang looked disbelieving.

"I've already practiced in Beijing," Chen Yan said, "Mom has been busy all morning today, and I have to rest. You can try my cooking later."

"Then...you know how to kill chickens?" Chen Kezhuang asked again.

Chen Yan blinked, looking at the screaming chickens on the ground, he felt goosebumps all over his body.He gritted his teeth and nodded: "Yes!"

"Ouch, then we'll have to wait."

Chen Kezhuang washed his hands and walked out step by step.

Chen Yan grabbed the knife and stared at the chicken on the ground with big eyes. After staring for half a minute, he suddenly remembered that he should close the kitchen door first, so as not to frighten his parents by jumping around.

He closed the door carefully and began to wrestle with the chicken.

Uncle Li was sitting outside the door holding a teacup in front of his chest. He still retained his old habits, thinking that Chen Kezhuang was the boss, Duan Rujin was the boss's wife, and he was their driver, so he shouldn't be too presumptuous.

It took Chen Kezhuang a long time to let him relax.

"I happened to be here on a long trip, so I wanted to come and see you!" Uncle Li said, "It's been a long time since I saw you, and I met the young master in Beijing!"

"Did you meet Xiao Yan in Beijing?" Duan Rujin said pleasantly, "Does he look good? Has he been wronged?"

Chen Kezhuang clicked his tongue: "Why do you ask these things, he is a big man, why should he be wronged?"

"No, the young master is doing well. He said that the company...is it a company? I don't know, anyway, the people in it take care of him. I think so too! If you don't take care of him, can he cooperate with big stars! "

"Which big star?" Duan Rujin smiled, "Don't call him Young Master, just call him Xiaoyan, just like us."

"That's the one, ma'am, you like it too, whatever..."

Duan Rujin was at a loss, and Chen Kezhuang said, "What, what she likes, you know, it's not just Qi Andong."

"Oh, yes, it's him!" Uncle Li said excitedly.

"Hey, what kind of cooperation is that? He is working under the hands of others." Duan Rujin said.

"No! What about the script written by Xiao Yan! I've seen him on TV, sitting on the east side!" Uncle Li said.

"Really?"

Duan Rujin looked at Chen Kezhuang, and Chen Kezhuang also looked blank.

"I forgot what it was called, but... well, it's a recent incident, you can just ask him!" Uncle Li patted his leg, but he didn't remember it.

"What are you asking? It's fine to check this kind of thing online." Chen Kezhuang took out his mobile phone.

"Don't tell us about such a big event," Duan Rujin complained, "I don't even know that he wrote a play for Qi Andong, and he didn't ask me for a signed poster or anything."

"You think you are still a little girl, and you are going to put his poster on the wall?" Chen Kezhuang laughed at her.

They gathered together, stared at the small mobile phone screen, and entered Chen Yan's name and Qi Andong's name into the search box.

Chen Yan struggled in the kitchen for more than ten minutes but failed to take down the chicken, but the chicken broke free from the rope and ran around.

He was chasing chickens noisily inside, so he didn't hear the sound outside at first, until the sound outside the house gradually became louder and excited, he thought, what are we talking about, it's so lively.

After a while, I finally felt that something was wrong, instead of chatting outside, it seemed to be arguing, and there were sounds of snatching and breaking things.

Don't quarrel, Chen Yan stood up abruptly, and the chicken didn't care, he dropped the knife and opened the door.

As soon as the door opened, the voice was much clearer, and Chen Kezhuang yelled: "I can't believe what I said! People on the Internet, who knows what it is! Tell you not to look at it, it's all fake!"

Uncle Li also panicked, and repeated over and over again: "Fake, fake, fake..."

"Give me your phone!" Duan Rujin threw herself forward, her neat long hair was in a mess, she kicked and hit Chen Kezhuang like crazy.

"What's the matter?!" Chen Yan was anxious, and rushed to hug his mother, but Duan Rujin didn't recognize her, and opened his mouth to bite him.

Chen Kezhuang glanced at him, but said nothing, and asked Uncle Li to help, and they went to the hospital first.

Chen Yan was chilled by this look, but that look was emotionless and full of judgment, as if he was going to be hanged.

"...What's the matter, Uncle Li?" He tremblingly turned to Uncle Li and asked, but Uncle Li turned his eyes away, not daring to look at him.

Chen Kezhuang took Duan Rujin away from Chen Yan - no, almost snatched her away - and stuffed her into the rental together with Uncle Li.

Duan Rujin was making a fuss, occupying almost the entire back seat, Chen Kezhuang was next to her to comfort her, Uncle Li looked at the front seat, and then at Chen Yan.

"Old Li, come up." Chen Kezhuang said sternly.

He spoke like that boss who is used to giving orders. Uncle Li was agitated and quickly sat on it.

As soon as Chen Kezhuang closed the door, the taxi drove away.

Everyone in his family left, and even Uncle Li went to the hospital with him. His mother's condition was unknown, but he was left where he was.His father closed the car door in front of him and didn't say a word to him.

The sky was overcast, and in the dark sky, Chen Yan was like a lonely ghost, wandering back home.

As soon as he got to the door, the chicken came out clucking and clucking, bumped him hard in the doorway, and walked away proudly with its ass pouted.

He sat on the sofa and picked up his phone with a shattered screen.

It was Chen Kezhuang's mobile phone, and the power-on password was a combination of his birthday and his mother's birthday.As soon as Chen Yan turned on the phone, what greeted him was his own news.

The bottom of the browser showed that there were more than a dozen web pages open, and he opened them with trembling hands, each of them was him.

Why is it all me, why is it all me, why!

He slammed the phone against the wall with all his strength, stared blankly at the shattered body for a few seconds, then slowly bent down, curled up like a shrimp, and cried silently while covering his face.
