Because Yan Jie drives to work every day, he is very precise about the time of the road conditions. He basically arrives at work 10 minutes earlier and has zero lateness records.But today, I had no car and had to take a taxi. It took a while to stop the car, just in time for work.

Zhang Mengmeng prepared things for his consultation room early, and she helped Yan Jie open the door every day, packing them properly.Yan Jie came late today, which was the first time in history.

"I'm almost late." Zhang Mengmeng leaned against the door, smiling sweetly: "Happy New Year, Doctor Yan."

"Happy New Year." Yan Jie changed his clothes with a smile, opened the drawer and took out a small bag: "By the way, this is for you, thank you for your care last time."

Zhang Mengmeng was surprised, she didn't expect Yan Jie to give her something, and quickly took it: "For me?"

"I don't know if you like it or not." Yan Jie said: "I haven't been on duty this year, and I haven't met you since you were on vacation, so it will be delayed."

Zhang Mengmeng's heart skipped a beat, and she whispered, "Actually... Actually, if you don't give me something, I won't tell anyone else your secret."

Yan Jie glanced at her, walked to her side, leaned against the table with his hands on the edge of the table: "It has nothing to do with this."

"Then..." Zhang Mengmeng's eyes were sharp, and when she was about to speak, she saw the ring on Yan Jie's hand: "You...are you married?"

"Not yet." Yan Jie admitted generously, looked at Zhang Mengmeng and said, "I want to take him back to England, but he is not very willing."

Zhang Mengmeng pursed her lips, as if she knew why Yan Jie gave her the gift: "Is she the same as you?"

"It's different." Yan Jie said, "I won't turn him into me. It would be nice to be able to accompany him through this life."

Zhang Mengmeng forced a smile: "I'm really jealous of her."

"Mengmeng, I am very glad that you can help me. Thanks to you for taking care of me at that time." Yan Jie said: "I have never had the opportunity to formally thank you. For you, besides husband, maybe other identities are more suitable for me."

Zhang Mengmeng held the bag tightly, smiled for a while and said, "Yes. I always think you are like people in novels and movies, too unreal, so I always have good thoughts about you. You can find someone who wants to get married I am jealous and happy at the same time."

Yan Jie didn't speak.

"Maybe we are really together, you must be different from what I have always imagined." Zhang Mengmeng wanted to cry, but she held back: "I'd better always fantasize about the perfect you."

What she said was actually from the heart, Yan Jie's image in her heart was too perfect, it might not necessarily be a good thing if they really wanted to live together.

"Then... I'm off to work." Zhang Mengmeng smiled shyly, and shook the small bag in her hand: "Thank you."

Yan Jie watched her walk away, and it was not difficult to see that Zhang Mengmeng was still a little sad.Fortunately, she is not such a girl who is easily entangled, and there is nothing better than getting along with her now.

Zhang Mengmeng returned to the nurse's desk, and Zhou Yan immediately squeezed to her side: "Did Yan Jie bring you something? Are you two having fun? Oh, open it and have a look!"

"Shh, keep your voice down..." Zhang Mengmeng sat on the chair and hid under the high table: "He and I are just friends, we don't have the relationship you think."

"Friend? You told me to take him down!" Zhou Yan took the small bag and looked at it: "Ah, PANDORA?"

"Oh, don't shout, people can hear you." Zhang Mengmeng pressed the bag down: "The past was the past, and the present is the present. I still think he is more perfect in my fantasy. If I really live my life, I might be disappointed."

"It's a needle in the bottom of a woman's heart." Zhou Yan smiled, and of course she didn't care too much: "But I don't really see him rushing to work, and he came here in such a hurry today."

"Maybe he was entangled by his girlfriend." Zhang Mengmeng opened the box, and in the snow-white box lay a bracelet strung with several red beads: "Do you know Zhou Yan, Yan Jie seems to be getting married."

"How did you know? He told you?" Zhou Yan first took out Zhang Mengmeng to take a look at the bracelet, because each bead has its own meaning, Zhou Yan identified it, namely beauty, health, happiness, And a friend: "There is really no love..."

"It's all over." Zhang Mengmeng gently touched the beads: "His ring finger is wearing a ring, you can go and see later. But don't say it, I'm really envious!"

"Of course, he has such good conditions and is so handsome, and he doesn't know what a girlfriend looks like."

"Yeah, what's it like..."

After more than three hours of traveling by train, and another hour by car, Liu Yuan finally arrived home.In fact, his house is not as dilapidated as he said. It is just in the outer circle of a small county town, where there are brick and earth houses. Although they are large, they are definitely incomparable with the high-rise buildings in the city.Because every household cultivated the land, no one would look down on anyone. Liu Yuan greeted the seven aunts and eight aunts along the way, and the big and small bags arrived at the door.

The door was left open, and the red-painted wooden door was pasted with newly written couplets. The person Liu Yuan knew who wrote them was written by a well-known teacher in the county.

"Mom! I'm back!" He yelled, and stepped into the house a few steps. Sure enough, Mother Liu ran out of the kitchen wiping her hands. Her pace was not fast, but she could see she was very happy.

"Yuan'er is back!" Mother Liu was so happy that she almost shed tears, she pulled Liu Yuan up and down to look up and down: "Yo, you've lost a lot of weight, haven't you worked hard in the past two years?"

"No." Liu Yuan smiled, put down the things in his hand, and said, "I'm a fashion fitter for urbanites, and my fat has been tightened by training, and the weight has not been reduced. If you don't believe me, feel it."

Liu's mother pinched Liu Yuan's arm, and she was really firm: "It's fine if you don't lose weight. Mom is worried that you work so hard that you don't have time to eat."

"No, the food in the hotel is better than anything else, don't worry." Liu Yuan said, "I brought these for you, try it tonight."

"Ouch..." Liu's mother said distressedly: "You send me so much money every month, what else do you buy when you go home, mom has everything! Don't buy it next time!"

Liu Yuan thought about it, but didn't say anything about Yan Jie.The topic changed: "By the way, what are you busy with?"

"I didn't know you came back, so hurry up and make two dishes." Liu's mother slapped her thigh: "Oh no, I'm talking to you! It's going to be muddled!"

"Oh my mother! Let me come and you rest for a while." Liu Yuan rolled up his sleeves and was about to go up, but Liu's mother stopped him.

"Farewell! It's rare for you to come back. Usually it's hard enough. Today's mother is cooking!" She looked at Liu Yuan and smiled very kindly: "The clothes look expensive, don't get dirty, sit down quickly Come on! Pour yourself some water to drink." Said, hurried away.

Every time she went home, Liu's mother would never let Liu Yuan cook, but what Liu Yuan wanted to do most was to help his mother cook a meal with his own hands.He sat on the wooden chair that hadn't been changed in decades, and felt a little wobbly. He squatted down and saw that the nails were all rusted.So I took the tool bag from the cabinet, pulled out all the rusty nails, and knocked them in again one by one, and finally made the only few stools in the house firm.

When Liu's mother came out with the dishes, Liu Yuan was nailing the wooden table. Seeing his mother coming, he quickly reached out to pick up the dishes: "Mom, you say hello to me, I'll help you get it."

"Why did you still nail the table when you were made to sit! Let it go! Wash your hands and eat!"

"It's all shaking, what should I do if I eat half of it and it collapses." Liu Yuan put the dishes away, went to the yard and used a ladle to ladle some water into the basin to wash his hands.It couldn't compare to Yan Jie's house where the bridle was hot when it was turned on, and the water in the water tank was icy cold, which woke Liu Yuan up suddenly: "Hiss...it's cold."

"Yuan'er! Are you ready?"

"Come on!" Liu Yuan washed in a hurry, he realized that he really had too many good days, and he couldn't even wash his hands anymore.

This is not a good thing.

"Mom, the money I sent you is enough to buy a few new tables, why don't you change one." Liu Yuan dried his hands, looked at the food on this table, and felt a little sore in his heart: "Will you No, you might as well go to the city with me, don't be stubborn."

"No." Liu's mother refused firmly: "I'm not used to it, I'm used to it here." She picked up a fish with chopsticks and put it in Liu Yuan's bowl: "I bought it at the fish stand in the morning. It's fresh and lively. , try it!"

"This table and chair haven't been replaced for decades, and the wood is loose." Liu Yuan felt uncomfortable: "Come with me to the city, my mother and I will rent a house to live together, and I can still take care of you."

Mother Liu put down her chopsticks and wiped her hands on her apron: "Yuan'er, isn't it nice in the city?"

"It's good to pick you up."

"Mom is looking forward to your well-being." Liu's mother said, "If you can get married and have a baby, mom will promise you to take it to the city for you."

Liu Yuan paused, unable to say a word.
