The daydream of a salted fish stand-in

Many things seem difficult, and it seems that there is a sense of frustration that can never be achieved by imagination alone, but when you really make up your mind to do it, you will find that it is actually nothing.

Yan Suiyuan thought that he had given up all his dreams a long time ago, and it would be very difficult to start over. When he heard Zhuo Yangbing’s words and began to pick up the discarded books one by one, he found that it was not as difficult as he thought before. .

He has done a lot of homework, but it is not without a little foundation. The one-on-one make-up lessons with Si Kaiyuan and the teachers he introduced have been somewhat effective these days.

Slowly, Yan Suiyuan really found a little bit of hope.

More importantly, because of this, Zhuo Yangbing also occupied a very important place in his heart, and he even felt that he was sent by heaven to save him.

He wants to repay him, even if he works for him all his life.

At this moment, he received a call from his aunt who wanted to see him.

Yan Suiyuan's aunt would go to the city by car every once in a while to see the two brothers and sisters. After he hung up the phone, he hurriedly changed his clothes and prepared to go home.

Today happened to be Saturday, Zhiqiu was busy preparing for the competition and didn’t go home, Zhuo Yangbing didn’t go to work either, he was sitting on the sofa watching today’s financial news, when he looked up he saw Yan Suiyuan panicking from downstairs He jumped up and down, and almost sprained his foot.

"What's so urgent?" Zhuo Yangbing looked away from the TV and asked curiously.

Yan Suiyuan replied while changing his shoes: "Mr. Zhuo, can I go home now? Relatives have come from my hometown, and I have to meet them."

"Do you want me to drive you there?" Zhuo Yangbing asked suddenly.

Yan Suiyuan quickly waved his hand: "No, no, no! Thank you, Mr. Zhuo, I'll go first!"

After finishing speaking, he quickly opened the door and ran out. Master Chen's car was already waiting at the door.

When people left and the door was closed, Zhuo Yangbing stared at the TV alone for a while, but he was not happy at all.

Although it is a bit baffling, but for a moment just now, he really wanted to send him off in person, but he didn't expect Yan Suiyuan to refuse so quickly, and judging by his evasive attitude, he seemed very afraid that he would be rejected by him. Relatives found out.

Zhuo Yangbing has never been treated like this before, there are many people who hate him outside, except for Yuan Jie, no one is so dishonorable.

Am I ashamed to take it out?

Zhuo Yangbing was angry while watching TV, completely forgetting the stupid things he said when he signed the contract.

He hardly listened to what the TV news host said, but suddenly remembered what Xie Wenqian said that day.

'Haven't you got the hang of it yet? '

This sentence echoed in his mind again, but now he is as confused as he was then, but Xie Wenqian had an expression of "you are really stupid" at that time, and said calmly, "This kind of It’s better to discover things by yourself”, responded to him.

Discover?What did you find?

Zhuo Yangbing was a little concerned about what he said, and he also felt that he might have overlooked something very important, but he hadn't noticed it yet.

This feeling is particularly bad, as if there is something out of his control, and others have discovered it, but they don't tell him.

Zhuo Yangbing was upset when he thought of Xie Wenqian's half-smile look in his eyes at that time, and always felt that he really took himself for a fool.

He was sulking for no reason here, and Yan Suiyuan was almost home.

"Master, I'll get off at the front, please put me down." Yan Suiyuan looked at the road conditions and pointed to the corner of the street.

Master Chen stopped the car as he said, "If you come back, call me, I will wait for you anytime."

After all, he was ordered by Mr. Zhuo to only follow Yan Suiyuan, so of course Master Chen must take good care of him.

"Okay, thank you master!" Yan Suiyuan closed the car door, straightened his clothes before continuing to move forward.

However, he did not rush home, but turned a corner and went to the bank first, withdrew some money from the self-service teller machine, and walked 10 minutes to his home.

He had just arrived downstairs in his unit when he saw his aunt had arrived, chatting cheerfully with the neighbors with bags of things.

Seeing him come back, my aunt's eyes lit up, and she shouted at the top of her voice, "Yuan Yuan is back?"

"Auntie." Yan Suiyuan ran over with a smile, consciously took the things from her hand, said goodbye to the neighbors and took her upstairs, "Why didn't you call before you came, did you wait for a long time? "

After going upstairs, Yan Suiyuan closed the door and immediately went to the kitchen to boil hot water, then returned to the living room and sat down with her aunt.

Aunt Yan came here in a hurry. She took the bus from the countryside and bumped all the way. She finally sat down and took a big breath. Her head was covered with sweat.

She was wearing a simple and cheap undershirt, and her feet were old shoes replaced by children. Because of long-term rural labor, her face became black and red, her eyes were full of wrinkles, and her hands were covered with calluses and tiny cracks. It can be seen that there is too much farm work under the scorching sun.

Her face is so vicissitudes and aging, no one can see that she was once a village flower with a lot of vicissitudes.

"Where's Zhiqiu? Why didn't you see her?" After resting for a while, the aunt remembered that she hadn't seen her little niece, and asked suspiciously, "Is it supposed to be a holiday today?"

Yan Suiyuan hurriedly replied: "She was selected by the teacher to participate in the chemistry competition, and she stayed in school this week to make up lessons."

"Participating in the competition again?" Auntie smiled happily, and her expression was happier than her own child's good grades. "We know that Qiu is promising!"

Yan Suiyuan also laughed: "How about elder brother and younger sister Zhixia?"

"Both of them don't live up to expectations." Auntie said so, but her eyes were full of pride, "Your elder brother graduated from university last year and returned to his hometown to do some orchards with others, and he doesn't go home every day!~Your sister is also in the third grade now , although the grades are said to be among the best, but ours is a school in the countryside, it can't compare with the city, and it's even worse compared with Zhiqiu."

Yan Suiyuan smiled and said, "Brother is so honest, he will definitely make money in the future."

"Don't mention them, how are you doing recently? I think you seem to be a little fatter." The aunt took a closer look and couldn't help sighing: "If you want me to say, you brothers and sisters are both beautiful, and it is also a face to our Yan parents. Where's the smoke?"

Being praised by her aunt, Yan Suiyuan felt embarrassed, and said casually, "But everyone says I don't look like my father."

"Nonsense, you look so much like your father!" Auntie's hands on her knees suddenly clenched into fists, and her voice was raised with anger: "Listen to those things talking nonsense! Those gossips in the village are jealous! The sons and daughters in their family are ugly, so they go out and make up nonsense!"

Yan Suiyuan just said it casually, but she didn't expect her aunt to take it seriously, so she quickly said, "I didn't take it seriously, Auntie, don't be angry."

My aunt calmed down quickly, and looked up at the rough and messy things in the room. There was no change from the last time she came, and then looked at the photo of her younger brother on the wall. It's hard, why can't he think about it so much..."

"Even you and Zhiqiu are suffering so much now, our Yan family doesn't know what evil they have done..."

My aunt would cry every time she came. She was usually too busy to come and take care of her, but when she came to the city and saw that Yan Suiyuan's brother and sister lived in such a poor place, it was not as spacious as her earthen house in the country. I couldn't help feeling sad At that time, her younger brother's family was a role model that everyone envied in the village. Who would have thought that this family would be so dilapidated many years later.

Yan Suiyuan patted her on the shoulder lightly to comfort her, even though he was used to his aunt crying like this, he felt uncomfortable.

"I told your father back then that if he didn't agree with that woman coming in, he just wouldn't listen!" The aunt began to scold while wiping her tears.

"Someone in the village has already inquired in the city. She is not a quiet person. She lived with someone when she was in college. She was dumped by a rich man before she turned around and went on a blind date with your father!"

"Your father was a person with such good conditions back then. He was a college student returning home. It's not that he couldn't find a good partner. There were so many girls in the village and outside the village who wanted to marry him, but he was so determined that he wanted that woman. I said Nothing works!"

"I told you earlier, she is a selfish and shameless woman!"

The aunt cried while talking, the more she scolded, the more fierce she became, and her words gradually became confiscated: "If it weren't for that bastard Feng Min, you would have come to where you are today?"

"Your dad deserves it too! He deserves it!"

"It's because you and Zhiqiu have a bad life, and you have to come out to support your family at a young age..."

Yan Suiyuan listened to her scolding silently. After thinking for a long time, he still didn't tell her about his encounter with Feng Min. He was afraid that his aunt's temper would come to her and settle accounts with her.

"Aren't we having a good time now?" Yan Suiyuan brought out the hot water from the kitchen, put it gently on the coffee table, and comforted her: "Auntie, drink some water."

The hot water was still steaming. My aunt wiped away her tears and stared at the glass in a daze. It took her a long time to suppress her emotions. She also realized that what she did would make Yan Suiyuan feel sad, so she quickly changed the subject and made a point. With a smiling face, he dragged the big and small bags he brought and said, "I brought a lot of delicious food for you brothers and sisters this time."

"They are all home-grown, fresher than those bought in the city, without pesticides."

My aunt's own life is very difficult, and my uncle is simple and honest, and he is not as quick-witted as others who can do some profitable business. They can only guard a few acres of land at home. They are typical farmers, and they have been helping them all these years. With Yan Suiyuan, every time she comes, she will definitely bring good things from home, she really loves their siblings.

Yan Suiyuan looked at the old hen with sweet potatoes, eggs and wild vegetables in a bag, his eyes were red, and he deliberately said: "Every time we bring so much, we have to eat for a long time. Didn't we say that we will take less in the future?"

"You brothers and sisters eat less than the cats in the village! Look at this skinny one!" My aunt said a moment ago that he was fat, but now she said that he was skinny, regardless of her contradictions. Easy, how about getting more?"

Yan Suiyuan smiled.

He reached into his pocket and held the thick envelope inside for a long, long time. When his aunt turned to help him put the things in the refrigerator, he quietly put the envelope into the cloth bag she brought, and then sat down as if nothing had happened. go back.

After placing the things, the aunt sat back and hesitated for a moment before asking him carefully: "Yuanyuan, have you...have you encountered anything lately?"

Yan Suiyuan shook his head and looked at her puzzled: "What's wrong?"

The smile on the aunt's face was a bit unnatural, as if she was covering up something, "Aunt is not suspicious of you, when I was waiting for you downstairs just now, I heard from Aunt Liu in the next unit that I saw cars often coming to pick you up around here a while ago. .”

"She said that car looked like the big boss's car..."

My aunt didn't finish her sentence, but the meaning was already very clear.I don't blame her for thinking too much, Yan Suiyuan is beautiful, and those rich people outside have too many bad intentions. It's not that she has never seen it before. After hearing what Aunt Liu said, she was very worried, for fear that Yuan Yuan would leave wrong way.

Yan Suiyuan's heart skipped a beat, and he explained with a smile: "That's my boss, I... have found a new job under him."

He didn't dare to tell the truth, and lowered his head to lie: "The boss is very nice. He was a good person, a good deed, and an outstanding young man in our city last year! He was kind enough to introduce me to work. Sometimes he saw that I was busy with work, and occasionally someone would send me back. .”

"He's really a nice guy."

The aunt trusted him very much, and after hearing the explanation, she was relieved: "I just said that we are not that kind of people."

"Life is a little bit hard, but we are poor and we can't lose our integrity. We can't take that dirty money, you know?"

"En." Yan Suiyuan lowered his head, not daring to face his aunt.

He dare not say that he was very happy with the "dirty money", and lived a good life.

Zhuo Yangbing, who was watching TV at home, suddenly sneezed, picked up his phone and looked at it, complaining secretly why Yan Suiyuan hadn't come back yet.
