Not long after meeting Erhei, Yang Lei went home when he went to the city for business.

In recent years, the relationship between Yang Lei and Yang Dahai has improved.Yang Lei is no longer the tit-for-tat as he was when he was a teenager. In the past few years, he has matured a lot, and he has his own judgment and understanding of what happened back then.Yang Dahai is also getting older, and his health is not very good. Yang Lei watched him change from the domineering look in his impression to graying temples, and getting older year by year. Those knots in his heart are no longer tight .As a child, no matter what mistakes the parents have, they have the duty of filial piety. Yang Lei did not understand this before, but now that he has grown up, he understands many things and let go.

Yang Lei will take the initiative to go home, and will also buy some supplements and gifts for Yang Dahai and his stepmother.Yang Dahai was very pleased with Yang Lei's change.The first time Yang Lei handed the American ginseng he bought for Yang Dahai to Yang Dahai, Yang Dahai took it and read the words on it with his glasses, his hands trembling slightly.

Although it is impossible for father and son to be as close as father and son in other families, it is already very valuable for Yang Dahai to be able to sit together and talk peacefully, have a meal, and talk about work and life.

In the past few years, he has also aged. Yang Dahai has also begun to reflect on the past, and his attitude towards people has also changed.After Yang Lei went to the army, he never lost face to him. Although there was a quarrel when he graduated, in the past three years, Yang Lei did not rely on his relationship, and made a solid career by himself. , Yang Dahai has never experienced this kind of pride in being a father.This made him stop interfering with Yang Lei too much, so the relationship between father and son is now relatively relaxed.

However, Yang Dahai has been urging Yang Lei's lifelong event.

"Dad, as I said, I'm busy with work now, so I don't want to think about it yet."

At the dinner table, Yang Dahai's wife made a blind date for Yang Lei again, showing him the girl's photo.

"Xiao Lei, look, how beautiful this girl is, and her family background is good, look..."

Yang Lei was a little impatient.

"Mom, don't worry about it. Let's talk about it in a few years."

"How many years? You are not eighteen or nineteen now, it's time to think about personal issues!"

Yang Dahai was a little anxious.As early as before Yang Lei's military academy graduated, Yang Dahai suddenly tried to find him a girlfriend, and he had hardly stopped in the past three years after graduation.Yang Lei didn't understand why Yang Dahai was so anxious about this matter.His friends who are over 40 and not married have never been urged by his family.When a man is in his twenties, he has a career. Even if he is [-] years old, it is not surprising that he does not get married. Yang Lei used to think that Yang Dahai was only concerned about whether he would go the right way. He did not expect to be so anxious about this matter.

For this, Yang Dahai talked to Yang Lei more than once.

"You are in the military academy...do you have any female classmates you like?"

"No."

"There are quite a few female cadres in the 701 Regiment Headquarters, so you don't like any of them?"

"They're all colleagues."

"What... are you looking for?"

"Don't ask. I'm busy with work, and I don't plan to talk about it yet."

"...you have had girlfriends before! Why now..."

Yang Dahai stopped talking, and the conversation never progressed.

Yang Lei made some good friends when he was in the army, and brought them home. In the past, Yang Lei’s bastard brothers, Yang Dahai, hated them deeply, but now Yang Lei’s military friends and colleagues brought home, Yang Dahai is always very cautious. Sometimes when Yang Lei chats with his friends in the room, he feels that Yang Dahai is observing them.

Yang Lei felt that Yang Dahai had become a little weird.He thought, maybe when people get old, they will be a little strange.

Now that the matter of the blind date is brought up, the meal breaks up again.

"That Fang Yu, did you find you later?"

Before Yang Lei left, Yang Dahai asked suddenly.

"No."

Yang Lei put on his shoes expressionlessly.

Yang Lei knew that Yang Dahai didn't want him to still be in contact with Fang Yu and other bastards from the past, so Yang Dahai would often ask, and he was very concerned about whether they still had contact.

"No, not once! Why don't you always ask?"

Every time Yang Dahai asked, Yang Lei was very impatient.Yang Dahai seldom asked questions.

Yang Lei drove back to the 701 regiment, the activity room of the regiment headquarters was decorated with lights and festoons, and they were engaged in activities.

This is a get-together between the military and the locals. In order to solve the personal problems of the single officers in the army, the Jianghai regiment municipal committee and the women's federation organized a group of single young women to come to the barracks for friendship. We have arrived, twenty or thirty beautiful girls dressed like flowers and butterflies are chattering and walking in the barracks, bringing color to the monotonous and masculine barracks, even the soldiers can't help but look at them secretly during the drill .

"Staff Yang, you came back just in time, and the head of the regiment signed up for you!"

"what?"

Can Yang Lei join in the fun?At the beginning of the friendship, male and female guests were required to come on stage, and the team leader pushed Yang Lei and asked him to take the lead.

"Captain, I won't go up."

"What can't you do?" The group leader is from Sichuan and speaks Sichuan dialect.

"I...have a girlfriend!"

"What are you fooling around with, you idiot? Come on! This is an order!"

The group leader liked Yang Lei very much and kicked him up.

"Xiao Yangmo is good, give us the face of the 701 regiment leader!" The other regiment leaders also joked.

"Yang Lei is a handsome guy. Once he gets on, our other cadres will suffer a lot!"

Yang Lei had no choice but to go up with other officers.The female guests standing opposite had already set their sights on these officers, and Yang Lei was very eye-catching among these people.The girls all looked at him, some secretly, some openly, and three or five looked at him with their mouths covered and discussed excitedly.

Yang Lei didn't even look at what the girls on the opposite side looked like.The game started, and Yang Lei casually shook hands with each girl and gave a brief introduction.After transferring a few girls, someone directly asked him for his mobile phone number and QQ number.Girls in this era are different from those in the past. They are all straightforward and open, and there is nothing embarrassing about them.

Yang Lei was perfunctory, thinking that this session was over before going out, and finally turned to the last girl.

"Hi, my name is Yang Lei."

Yang Lei stretched out his hand mechanically, but the other party didn't reach out. Yang Lei raised his head.

A pretty, fashionable girl looked at him with a smile.

"...Fang Mei?"

"Why are you here?"

In the small restaurant in the town, Yang Lei ordered a drink for Fang Mei.

"Why can't I come? I'm also a single young woman. Why, Captain Yang, are you not welcome?"

Fang Mei has been back to China for more than half a year. She works in a foreign company and became a supervisor right away.

"What are you fooling around with?"

Yang Lei knew without asking that Fang Mei came here to play tricks on him.

Fang Mei plans to stay in China for a long time when she returns to China this time. Around 2002, the returnees were real gold and silver, very popular.Although Fang Mei has already obtained a green card outside, but due to family reasons, she still came back to China to work.She and Yang Lei have always kept in touch. The two are childhood sweethearts and have always had a tacit understanding.

"I'm not just joining in the fun, I really came here for a blind date seriously. Staff Officer Yang, how about it, give me a chance?"

Fang Mei smiled, after the age of a little girl, Fang Mei is now more mature.Among the group of young women, many military officers took aim at her and rushed to introduce themselves to her.

"Who do you fancy, let me introduce you."

"Who else, of course you?"

"Come on!"

Fang Mei giggled.

"Look at you like that! Yang Lei, you hanged me on a tree when I was seventeen or eighteen? You dumped me, and I still love you for the rest of my life? We are now comrades-in-arms of the revolution!"

Fang Mei is a chic girl who can afford it and let it go.Over the years she has been abroad, she has had wonderful and vigorous relationships. She is a woman who really understands love and life.

While eating and chatting, Fang Mei glanced at Yang Lei.

"What about you? Still alone?"

No need for Yang Lei to say, Fang Mei also knew.In the past few years, Yang Lei hasn't even seen a woman by his side.

"You don't plan to fall in love, do you?"

Yang Lei ate the food but didn't speak.

"Didn't your family urge you?"

"...Why are you like my mother now, can we just say this without meeting?"

Yang Lei became impatient.

"You're almost done. You're already in the middle of nowhere. You have to live a more realistic life. Don't make things difficult for yourself."

Yang Lei didn't answer, nor showed any expression.

Fang Mei observed Yang Lei's face, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke slowly.

"...Still thinking about Fang Yu?"

Fang Mei knew about it three years ago.

Three years ago, when Fang Mei returned to China to visit relatives, it was also the time when Yang Lei suffered the most.Although Fang Mei buried this relationship in her heart, Yang Lei was someone she loved deeply after all. Fang Mei accompanied Yang Lei and thought about using her own feelings to warm him back. His people, Fang Mei told the truth.

When Fang Mei knew that Fang Yu was the person Yang Lei said he had in mind back then, Fang Mei was shocked.

"...are you gay?"

The term comrades had already specifically referred to a fixed group of people at that time.

"I'm not, I only have feelings for him!"

Yang Lei has never had such thoughts about men other than Fang Yu.To be honest, during those four years in the military academy, where men were concentrated, Yang Lei met more than one man who hinted at him, and there were some excellent and handsome men among them, but Yang Lei never felt anything, and he himself I don't understand why I have feelings for Fang Yu alone.

Fang Mei understood.

She remembered the sad look of Yang Lei and Fang Yu after they almost fought in the courtyard of the small building, and she remembered that night under the wisteria flower trellis, Yang Lei told her distressedly, "I like him...so much...I like him... I don't know what to do!" She remembered that when the three of them were chatting together, Yang Lei was always absent-minded about her words, and Yang Lei's eyes always followed Fang Yu closely...

Fang Mei finally understood.She thought that the "she" that Yang Lei said was actually "he".

Fang Mei has been abroad for many years, her vision is different, and she has seen a lot of love for comrades.Although the facts shocked her, she was easier to understand than others.Yang Lei didn't hide it from her, Fang Mei also knew about the past few years.She watched Yang Lei come over these years, and she could only sigh silently in her heart.

"Later, did you find him?"

Fang Mei asked.Yang Lei shook his head.

"You... still can't let him go?"

Fang Mei felt that the reason Yang Lei didn't fall in love until now was because he hadn't come out yet.

Listening to Fang Mei's words, Yang Lei spun the wine glass and smiled.

"Don't worry, I didn't torment myself that much. I'm already in my twenties, and I still give myself a way to live. He must have his reasons for what he does. He gave me this reason. I couldn't accept it at the time, but After all these years, I seem to understand. You are right, people have to live in reality. He gave me an explanation, but I didn’t believe it at the time, and I had to see it myself. Now think about it, Pretty silly."
