far and near

In the second month of Yuan Liu's junior year in high school, Yu Ren was approached by the organization to have a conversation and asked her if she would like to work in the Youth League Committee.Compared with the work there, Yu Ren still likes the laboratory even if he has to work overtime and stay up late to write materials and lose his hair.She chose to stay, so she was scolded by the furious Ren Songhong on the phone for her narrow vision.

Yu Ren, who was full of anger, went to the central hospital to find Yu Xiaomin, and suggested that the mother and son go to eat hot pot and build a team.Yu Xiaomin said you don't eat hot pot, look at your red eyes, eating too hot will add fuel to the fire, mom will take you to eat ice cream.

The mother and daughter sat in McDonald's, and Yu Renyi stuffed two boxes of Xindi in one breath, and finally admitted his mistake, "I shouldn't go back to Baizhou to work."

Yu Xiaomin said that I don't know you yet, thinking that I can get some credit from my own father, don't you?You can be regarded as clear, you are a bit like Ren Songhong.If you don’t go to the Youth League Committee, don’t go there. Although the promotion is not slow, it’s actually quite busy there. You’ve worn yourself out from sitting in the research room for the past few years, so you may not be suitable.

"I'm not lazy." Yu Ren disagreed. She has always been extremely serious in her work, and she has been praised by her leadership colleagues for her meticulousness, efficiency and overall view.

Laziness means dealing with people, you love to ponder, love to write and can write, this is an advantage.But you are becoming less and less talkative, and it may be uncomfortable to adapt to new requirements in a new position.Yu Xiaomin said that you were introduced by a university that focuses on training talents. If you didn't have Ren Songhong as your father in Baizhou, you might have been promoted faster.

"Mom, I came in with me in the same batch, and someone has already passed the main course." Yu Ren has never fallen behind in his studies since he was a child, and his strong heart has not changed.

Yu Xiaomin grinned, and touched Yu Ren's face, "Mom understands, I don't move at all emotionally, and I want to make a lot of achievements in my career. As a human, you have to rely on one side."

Yu Xiaomin who came home in the evening boiled a pot of water and made tea first, and sat down on the sofa when she was full after making a bowl of noodles. After she called Ren Songhong, she had a pleasant face and said, "Old Ren, are you busy now?" busy?"

Ren Songhong said that there was no one in the office, "Is it because of Caicai? I was also angry. I thought this kid would not be so confused, but anyone with some ideas and experience would not refuse. I didn't expect... "

Yu Xiaomin continued with a "hmmm" and continued to be amiable after drinking two sips of tea, "She is indeed immature, and she is a little childish and self-willed."

The ex-husband was stunned, "Xiaomi, you—"

"I'm just going to ask you, Ren Songhong, is Caicai your daughter?" Yu Xiaomin changed her face, and her voice suddenly rose, "Ren Songhong, you bastard, if your daughter doesn't take advantage of you, you really got it She knows how to be good! She didn’t rely on herself to take the university entrance exam, select a transfer exam, and get a minor... You’re a fart for giving 10 yuan. Didn’t you already buy a house for your son? Cai squeezed out of the research room. Don’t you just feel that this department is closer to you? Why are you pretending to be a blue sky? You are pretentious if you don’t shy away from relatives if you are a good person!”

Yu Xiaomin was relieved from cursing, took another sip of tea, and called her daughter again, "Don't worry, do your job well."

In October, Yu had served as a deputy department for two years and was successfully promoted to a regular department.She became a little celebrity for a while, and with the expansion of the laboratory, she became one of the two deputy directors.Young and promising, good at fighting with parents, prestigious school aura, beautiful girl... These evaluations have overshadowed her outstanding ability, Yu Ren can only work more carefully with his tail between his legs.When she was a little tired from the tangible and intangible pressure and other things, Yu Ren would drive to Yinxiu's teahouse for a drink of tea.

Two hours before picking up Yuan Liu from school that day, Yu Ren just parked the car at the entrance of Yinxiu’s store, and Yinxiu, who was wearing a woolen dress, picked her up with a big red umbrella, “It’s only two steps away.” Yu Ren smiled and said no catch.

"It's autumn, and it's uncomfortable even after a little rain, not to mention you have to come and sit for an hour or two." Yin Xiu smiled, and the top of the umbrella quietly tilted more than half towards Yu Ren.Thinking of Yu Xiaomin's evaluation of Yin Xiu, Yu Ren couldn't help but secretly nodded, "Yin Xiu's thoughtfulness in dealing with people is hidden in every little detail."

After entering the store, Yin Xiu asked Yu Ren to take a look at the newly arrived Shuodong fast-moving tea. Yu Ren looked at the packaging and didn't comment, so he asked, shall we drink this tonight?Yinxiu is right, I want to ask your opinion.

They sat down at the teahouse, the water was ready, Yin Xiu tore open the package and made two cups, and was about to talk to Yu Ren when another guest came outside.Yin Xiu said to go and have a look first, and after a while there were two female voices chatting happily.

The visitor was a passer-by who came in to shelter from the rain, with straight hair parted in the middle, a small navy blue suit and a one-step skirt of the same color. He looked ordinary, and looked like a white-collar worker.She said that she didn't know much about tea, so she wanted to ask if there was any tea with a reasonable price and decent packaging that could moisten the throat and benefit the lungs.

"Then you can choose oolong tea, which is between green tea and black tea. It is a semi-fermented tea. It is warm and suitable for drinking in autumn." Yinxiu talked about the tea, "If you don't drink tea too much, the taste should be lighter It is not suitable for oolong teas with a strong taste like Fenghuang Dancong or Niulankeng Cinnamon."

Yin Xiu leaned over to search in the tea cabinet, and took out the narcissus tea produced in northern Fujian, "This one has orchid fragrance, and the fragrance is fine and high, suitable for ladies."

Yin Xiu invited the guest to sit down, and went to make a pot for her to taste first.The guest said no, Yin Xiu smiled, "Today was originally a day for me to taste tea with my friends, and I will take advantage of your chance to come into the store to taste one more."

Yu Ren also came out, smiled and said yes, I'm done today.

After brewing the tea, the guest was very satisfied with the taste and asked for some, "I haven't bought much tea before, so I don't know how much is suitable for gifting?"

"Two hundred grams, three hundred grams is enough." Yin Xiu said you gave it to the lady?

The guest glanced down unnaturally, "Well, yes." She laughed with two dimples on the left and one right, and this ordinary face suddenly became vivid, "Actually, it is for my patient to apologize. "It turns out that this is a doctor, and it is rare to apologize to a patient.

She took out business cards and handed them to Yin Xiu and Yu Ren respectively, "My clinic is on this street." On the business card was written 'Baizhou Aiya Dental Clinic', Dr. Du Yingqi.The female doctor blinked and said with a smile, "Then please help me choose this orchid-flavored 'Narcissus'."

Before the female doctor went out with the tea gift box, Yinxiu handed her an umbrella with the store name on it, "Although it's raining less now, it's still easy to get wet."

Dr. Du said thank you, "I'll pay you back at work tomorrow." Before she left, she greeted the two of them, glanced at Yu Ren implicitly, and then took a deep look at the eye print show.

After the guests left, Yin Xiu turned her head, "I think...she may have misunderstood."

Yu Ren said you are so sensitive, how did you find out?

Yin Xiu pointed to the tip of her nose, "Smell." It was as if she smelled Yuan Liu's different affection for Yu Ren.The two sat back down again, Yu Ren looked at the oily and brown tea soup in a daze, and she asked Yin Xiu, "China's tea market has an annual sales of hundreds of billions, but there is no real brand yet."

Yin Xiu has long been used to her changing the topic, and she doesn't point it out, "Yes, there are too many branches, the regional brands are large, the industry standards are not uniform, and there is no brand that integrates the entire industry chain."

Yu Ren tasted again, and suddenly said, "I mentioned Zheng Ke some time ago." She didn't mention this matter to her friends and relatives around her, because she didn't think it was something to be praised.But facing Yinxiu, she is willing to talk about her troubles, "The burden is heavier, and it is more like walking on thin ice."

"Did you sleep well?" Yin Xiu refilled her glass, "This is due to your ability, it will push you to the right position, in fact, most of the work requires this 'care', don't put too much pressure on it."

Sleeping was basically good, Yu Ren had to talk to Yuan Liu almost every night before resting, even though they had just met in the car two hours ago.The little girl said that the third year of high school was really boring, she just reviewed the old knowledge and did the questions.The little girl also said that Zhao Jiaqi has been a little cold towards her recently, because Xueshen goes to her mother's restaurant every week to talk to herself.The little girl also said that although Xueshen is somewhat elite and cold, but after in-depth communication, she is a "little girl".Tsundere, smart, used to pretending to be mature, but also domineering and childish.

Last Friday, the little girl stretched out her wrist and pointed to the sports bracelet that Xueshen forcibly gave her, "I just put it on forcibly at the school gate. I have to think about how to return the gift."

The night the little girl wanted to return the gift, Yu Ren felt a little sleepless.Yu Ren says he is not jealous, and he has no position in talking about jealousy. In fact, he understands in his heart that talking and eating are two different things.

"Sleep is okay." Yu Ren looked at Yin Xiu, "I think you are more shiny, and you always have a smile on your face and eyes."

"I used to be like a lost dog." Yin Xiu joked to herself, "Because I didn't have one, I was very ambitious." Let's talk about making money. When I saw that my peers made a lot of money, I told myself that I could do it too, and I could earn more.After I got out of prison, I knew how capable I was, so I did what I could.Maybe this is too old-fashioned and conservative in the eyes of others. Some acquaintances of my mother came to the store to see, asking me to expand, build branches, and even borrow money, but I refused. "It's not sad to know where your boundaries are at the age of 30. I feel lucky."

"Boundary?" Yu Ren asked, you mean the upper limit?

"Yes. The upper limit is not the number of deposits, not the number of houses, but a happy relationship with life. Now I unconsciously think about Uo, and I don't want to be too involved in the business and ignore her." Yin Xiu took a sip of tea, The sweet taste overflowed in her mouth, and she smiled, "I will be able to register a company by myself next year, and then I want to open a fashion design studio next door. If I can take care of my interests, I will be satisfied with earning some rent and utilities."

I think "growing up" is a process of gaining, losing, and regaining. In the past, Yinxiu wanted to become a billionaire and return to his hometown. Now Yinxiu wants to be well-off, and being born is happiness.Yin Xiu took a look at the sky before sending Yu Ren out, "The rain has completely stopped, and you have the perseverance to go straight to Xiaoliu."

"It doesn't depend on perseverance. Sometimes I'm too busy to take care of it." Yu Ren said goodbye to her.

"Well, it doesn't depend on perseverance." Yinxiu put the refreshments on the back seat, "For Xiaoliu Xiaohai and the others, the store's Mid-Autumn gift, I specially tasted the custom-made tea tasting mooncakes from more than a dozen stores."

Yinxiu saw that Yu Ren was still holding back his words. She patted the car window and bent down to look at Yu Ren, "My business is all small business. If you don't mind, you are welcome to fight together at any time. Although I said it's not that I am ambitious, but I still want to do better when I open a business.”

"Okay, I'll come to you directly one day." Yu Ren felt warm and lowered his head to start the car. Yin Xiu stepped back a few steps to make way for her, but Yu Ren didn't move. She hesitated for a while while holding the steering wheel Son, "Yinxiu—"

"Huh?" Yinxiu looked at her, "I know you have a hard time sometimes. It's still the same sentence, come whenever you want to talk."

Yu Ren's difficulties can only be relieved by herself. With Yin Xiu's words, she nodded, "Let's go, you should go home early."

After picking up Yuan Liu for so many days, Su Hai would only ask Su Hai to help when it was too late to work overtime, especially when he was working overtime continuously after becoming the deputy director. This week, Yu Ren only picked up Yuan Liu once on Wednesday.Yu Ren does not rely on perseverance, but "relies" on what to do, which shows that there is still psychological pressure to do this, and he still has to fight against the natural inertia of human nature.Yu Ren just felt that before the little girl went to college, she would pick up one less time.But today he couldn't stay two hours before departure, Yu Ren drank two kinds of tea, but he still couldn't suppress the fire in his heart.

Don't be afraid to predict the future, although it may not be correct, even if it will make the heart heavy, but Yu Ren's work over the years has taught her one thing: the worst outcome must be considered and reconsidered.

The worst result is that the little girl went to the university campus, and they were separated from each other, and they could only see each other during the holidays.Yuan Liu will meet all kinds of interesting people and things, she will jump out of the well that Yu Ren built for her, see the colorful side of the world, and touch inevitable reefs.After graduation, she will throw down the crutch of "sister", walk independently, run wildly, and she will find that her elder sister, who is 11 years older than her, is a relative, not a lover.

Uosheng used this positioning to let Yu Ren gradually let go of his attachments, Qi Yiguo found a new track of life under the sky on the other side, and Yuan Liu will eventually become herself.

No matter whether Yuan Liu's relationship has gradually deteriorated from intimacy since childhood, or it is the sprouting of puberty, or a variation of orientation towards enlightenment or even wandering, she came at the right time, and she made Yu Ren's "sister vision" change color, mixed Into the wonderful taste.

It has the sweetness and sourness of green apple hard candy, which is Yuan Liu's favorite taste.It is also like the narcissus tea I tasted in Yinxiu shop today, clear orange, pure and sweet, which is brought about by the chemical reaction between them-at first Yuan Liu built a fire, now Yu Ren unconsciously adds firewood Oil.Yu Ren got used to her and couldn't do without her, his loneliness gradually disappeared, he even closed his eyes and let himself sink in.

Little by little, so that no one else will find out.Quietly, even Yuan Liu couldn't tell why.The best result after burning is to part with each other, and Yu Ren can get the "consummation all the time" in his heart.She is not afraid of separation, and the special relationship with Yuan Liu will end without a problem. She is good at organizing materials and writing, and she is already a well-known pen in the research laboratory. She has the essence of "the mean".

Take this taste, but don't express your opinion.Love this taste, but not persistent.Thinking of this taste, but will bear it.

With the clever cooperation of the accomplice Yuan Liu, Yu Ren was able to safely come to the present—two ambiguous masters, two silent chess players with their own thoughts, sitting around the ambiguous bonfire, the fire shining on their faces, The flames were bright and dark, and they communicated with each other and folded their words.A girl who is only 16 years old, how could she be so thoughtful.

Thinking of this, Yu Rencai, who was driving the car, realized that he had already passed the No. [-] Middle School. She hurriedly stopped by the side of the road to call Yuan Liu and asked her to wait to turn around.

Yuan Liu smelled faintly of sweat when he got into the car. Yu Ren asked if the air conditioner was turned on in the classroom today?

"Actually, the last class today is for the old class. We changed it to self-study because he had something to do at home. Zhao Jiaqi and I went to the playground and ran a dozen laps." Yuan Liu's chin was still dripping with sweat, "The weather is boring and I am tired from running. , ran and quarreled, and finally spoke out what was in my heart."

Yu Ren pulled a tissue for her, "Wipe it."

The little girl didn't answer, she leaned closer to her face, "You wipe it off."

"Then you have to give me a reason." Yu Ren tilted his body and looked at her with a half-smile, "For example, did you have a broken bone?"

The smile on Yuan Liu's face froze, "It's been a few days...my heart seems to be broken." The little girl lowered her head, her bushy eyebrows gleaming with sweat under the roof lights.Yu Ren was silent for a while, and wiped from the forehead for her. Yuan Liu closed his eyes, his eyelashes moved slightly, and curved up like the corners of his mouth.She felt the tissue wipe gently along the brows to the end of the eyebrows, then to the cheeks and the bridge of the nose, and finally to the round chin.Yu Ren felt that looking at faces was different from hands-on sightseeing. She noticed that the smell of Yuan Liu's green apples had faded a little, and the little girl grew up quietly again.

Putting away the tissue, Yu Ren sat upright, "Clarified the misunderstanding with your friend?"

"Yeah." Yuan Liu smiled again, "Zhao Jiaqi is determined to work hard for the whole senior year and stop thinking about relationships." Don't criticize herself because of others' excellence, "She wants to distance herself from Xueshen."

"Why?" Yu Ren found that these children were much smarter than she was in high school. She didn't understand, she only knew how to cry secretly.

"To put your eyes on yourself is to pull away." Yuan Liu said, didn't you think this was a very simple thing before?Why can't she figure it out?Later, it was discovered that people were different. What stood in front of Zhao Jiaqi was a smooth cliff. She climbed it with bare hands and slid down again and again.Until she knew how to look at the wounds on her body and the different paths behind her and her side, she would understand what to do.

Yuan Liu put her elbows on her thighs, she propped her chin and looked ahead, falling into the same silence as Yu Ren.In the past, she didn't think the silence was noisy, and Yu Ren didn't feel embarrassed. They didn't have to forcefully find a topic.But today is different, Yuan Liu's mind is stronger than Ye Ye's.

Yu Ren glanced at her wrist, but the bracelet was gone.Thinking of what the little girl said, "the heart seems to be broken", she felt numb, and her left scalp seemed to be bouncing.Yu Ren still drove the car downstairs to Yuan Liu's house, and the little girl bid farewell as usual, Yu Ren shouted, "Xiao Liu—"

"Huh?" The little girl looked back at her.

"Broken heart—how can it be easier to set a bone?" she asked.

Yuan Liu was so excited that she couldn't speak at that moment, she looked down at her left chest, "It's much better, it will be fine soon."

Yu Ren's eyes moved, she waved to Yuan Liu, "Come here."

The little girl stepped forward, but unexpectedly, Yu Ren held her in his arms. In an instant, she heard Yu Ren's heartbeat, which was chaotic, flustered and powerful.Yu Ren stroked the back of Yuan Liu's head, "I'm sorry, sometimes I'm in trouble too." Yu Ren said.

Yuan Liu nodded on her shoulder, and after a while, she took a deep breath, pulled away, and suddenly kissed Yu Ren on the cheek quickly, "Let's go." She entered the apartment building as if fleeing.The remaining Yu Ren touched the scorched right cheek and his heart beat even more chaotically.After calming down for a while, she drove the car away.

"Damn me," a tall figure suddenly stood up from behind, and Su Hai, who was holding the cantaloupe rind and mobile phone, appeared out of nowhere from the flowers, "Damn me." Su Hai gnawed on the melon rind , watched Yu Ren's car leave, and then looked up at Yuan Liu who was seeing him off on the upstairs balcony, "Niu, Xiaoliu."

Yuan Liu lowered his head and saw Su Hai stretching out his thumb downstairs, and said loudly, "Niuuuuh."
