Fake tricks with the tyrant boss

Gu Xu rubbed his forehead, asked Li Cai for Xi Yu's phone number, and called to ask about the situation.

Xi Yu was still ignorant at the beginning, asking who are you, after Gu Xu introduced himself, Xi Yu instantly sobered up, and twitched: "Gu, Mr. Gu, what's the matter with you calling me? In the bar, it's so noisy here, I'll go out to sleep with you, bah, say, look at my mouth."

Gu Xu endured the discomfort, and tried his best to be patient: "Young Master Xi, I have no other purpose in calling you, I just want to confirm one thing with you."

Xi Yu was also clever. Hearing Gu Xu's serious tone, he understood when he remembered the post he had posted not long ago, and said proactively, "You want to ask Young Master Lin, right?"

"Is he still in the bar?"

"It's gone, it's gone, I watched him go out, and I went out by myself."

He originally thought that Lin Jinyan broke up with Gu Xu and found someone else, or that he found someone else without breaking up, but after Lin Jinyan came out of the toilet, he walked like flying and was not drunk. Although the person behind him followed, he was obviously disgusted.The two of them didn't spend enough time in the toilet to do anything else.

"But, Young Master Lin doesn't seem to be in a good mood. He drank a lot of wine. Did the two of you quarrel?"

"Then do you know where he went?" Gu Xu asked without answering.

"I don't know that."

"Thank you."

He hung up the phone neatly, and it happened that the phone from the old house was cut in, so he had to deal with the family first.

The call was made by the driver next to the old man. The old man's blood pressure rose and he was hospitalized.

Gu Xu leaned on the sofa, closed his eyes tiredly, and the driver next to his ear was still telling: "Mr. went to see Young Master Lin today, and I don't know what he said. After Young Master Lin left, the old man fell ill."

"I see, I'll go back and see him."

In the middle of the night, Gu Xu rushed to the hospital in a snowstorm. The snowstorm on the road was getting worse, and the car drove very slowly, but he finally arrived at the hospital before twelve o'clock.

He came from the southern hemisphere. Although he added clothes after returning to Jiangting, he didn't expect that the snow was getting heavier and heavier, so he still wore less clothes. After getting out of the car, he couldn't help coughing. In the blink of an eye, frost formed on his hair, as if he had aged decades in an instant.

The hospital was probably the busiest place on this snowy night, but the wailing of pain and the honking of the ambulance were all swallowed up by the whistling wind and snow, making them seem a little powerless, while the inpatient department was quite clean.

Gu Xu went upstairs all the way, reached the top floor, and entered the ward.

The doctor just happened to make a ward round, and Gu Xu asked, "What's the matter with the old man?"

"Elevated blood pressure, risk of arteriosclerotic stroke."

Gu Xu heaved a sigh of relief and sat on the edge of the bed.

The old man was still asleep, he opened his eyes and glanced at him, snorted, and closed them again.

Gu Xu endured his exhaustion, took off his coat, and took the towel from Uncle Liu to wipe his hair: "What's going on, why do you want to meet Jinyan in private?"

The old man quit immediately when he heard the words, and was about to sit up while propping up the bed: "With your tone, are you questioning your grandfather?"

Gu Xu's nose was blocked and his head was a little dizzy, so he took it easy: "No, Grandpa, I just find it strange, you already knew that I like men, and I have so many exes, why did you only find Lin Jinyan? gone?"

Gu Qingshan snorted coldly: "You know why I found him. You are 34, do you think you are still young, and you can still play outside for a few years? When I was your age, your uncle was seven years old! "

"That will disappoint you. No matter how old I am, I will never have children."

Gu Qingshan was so angry that he cried out.

Uncle Liu hurriedly stepped forward to support him and lay down again: "Master Gu, why are you so angry at the old man? The old man's physical condition can't stand the stimulation. He just found out that you have cancer..."

"Got it?" Gu Xu was a little surprised.

"Understood." Seeing that Gu Qingshan didn't want to speak, Uncle Liu could only explain, "Young Master Lin said it."

Gu Qingshan snorted again: "The person you're looking for, okay, deliberately angered me, saying that you have a terminal illness and won't live long, what do you think he's thinking about? He just wants to anger your grandpa to death!"

Gu Xu was slightly startled and then laughed.

Gu Qingshan looked at him and felt a thump in his heart. He knew that something was wrong this time. In the past, he would never let go of his identity to trouble Gu Xu's partner, but he is old, and he can't wait for a few years. He is afraid that Gu Xu will really find a man. settle down.

"Still laughing, it seems that he is going to piss me off, are you quite satisfied?"

Gu Xu hurriedly denied: "No. It's just that I lied to him before, misleading him that I have terminal cancer, and forcing him to be with me."

Lin Jinyan didn't lie, the light in Gu Qingshan's eyes sank, and a sense of powerlessness surged up.

He stared at the ceiling for a long time before slowly saying: "Gu Xu, it's not that grandpa doesn't understand you, but do you know how sincere he is to you?"

Gu Xu didn't speak, and Gu Qingshan said again: "You also know that you forced him. He saw me today and was humiliated by me so much, but he didn't lose his temper. Instead, he knew where my pain was, and knew to stimulate me instead."

"What did he say?" Gu Xu thought he understood Lin Jinyan, and asked without waiting for Gu Qingshan's answer, "Did he say that he agreed to be with me because I had cancer, and he was with me?" Is it because you sympathize with me?"

Gu Qingshan looked at him carefully: "What do you think, does he think so?"

Gu Xu smiled and leaned into the sofa: "I'm an early stage cancer, so it's nothing serious after the operation, isn't it?"

Gu Qingshan: "You lied to him, and he didn't get angry with you? Knowing that you have early stage cancer, won't you break up?"

Gu Xu still smiled and said: "No, at most coax him." It's just a bit difficult to coax him.

Gu Qingshan stared at him for a while, but finally he was not reconciled, and snorted: "Your parents are hands-off shopkeepers, everything is up to you, I am old, and I can't worry about your affairs. If you really If you want to be with him, he has a clean background, there is nothing wrong with it, I will not stop you. But if he breaks up with you, you should come back honestly, and listen to my arrangements for marriage. "

Gu Xu lowered his eyes and looked at his phone: "He won't break up with me, but you went to him today, which really made me a little troublesome. What exactly did you say to him today?"

Gu Qingshan closed his eyes, a little sleepy: "Go and ask him yourself."

,

Because of the heavy snowfall, Lin Jinyan was delayed for a day in Beishi, but he couldn't take it anymore, took a taxi to a neighboring city and took the high-speed train back to Haishi.

He plans to spend this year at his grandma's and grandpa's house, but he has no plans for New Year's Eve.

Lin Jinyan's grandmother is a master of Suzhou embroidery, and his grandfather is a famous song and dance playwright.The Xu family is indeed a scholarly family, with ancestors who taught in universities and even famous writers.It's just that the family is deserted. Grandma and grandpa only have one child, Xu Yun, and they rarely interact with other relatives. Perhaps because of the loftiness of scholars, grandpa is not close to Lin Jinyan, the grandson, while grandma is a little better. I got Alzheimer's in [-], so I don't know Lin Jinyan anymore.

Lin Jinyan felt uncomfortable staying here with his grandpa and grandma. In the past few years, he had passed his childhood and left after visiting Xu Yun in the cemetery.

When you come to grandpa and grandma's house, you don't have the preferential treatment to go out to receive them. Lin Jinyan walked all the way to the apartment upstairs and rang the doorbell for a long time before waiting for grandpa to open the door.

"Come here?" Grandpa also received the call ahead of time, but after speaking, he seemed to be at a loss for what to say, so he asked Lin Jinyan to come in, and then said, "The meal is almost ready, your grandma is watching a show in the living room."

Lin Jinyan hummed: "Are you all in good health? Haishi isn't cold recently."

"It's good, it's not cold, and the sun is out today." There are still dishes in the kitchen, and my grandfather asked Lin Jinyan to sit, "You sit, and my grandfather will serve the dishes."

Lin Jinyan hummed: "You have worked hard, you don't need to be busy, just eat whatever you want."

He went to the living room and saw a hunched little old lady sitting on the sofa, and when he heard the sound, he raised his voice and applauded.

Lin Jinyan glanced at the TV and found that it was singing Peony Pavilion, his eyes suddenly became sore.

He remembered that Xu Yun was also looking at the Peony Pavilion before she died, and she could still sing a few lines to Lin Jinyan: "It turns out that there are so many beautiful purples and reds blooming everywhere, like this, they are all left in ruins, and the beauty of the day is so beautiful. Whose house is it for the pleasure?" .”

She told Lin Jinyan: "Your grandma loves to listen to Peony Pavilion the most. Your mother has listened to it since she was a child and learned a few sentences. It's a pity that her voice is not good now, and she can't sing like she used to."

Of course Lin Jinyan knew that it wasn't the first time Xu Yun sang The Peony Pavilion to him. He had a talent show in his kindergarten and school, and asked his parents to also put on a show. Xu Yun sang it before. Delicate and tactful like a nightingale, it won applause.

Grandma's Alzheimer's disease is selective amnesia, forgetting everyone around her, only remembering Mudanting and her miserable daughter, and often forgetting her husband who has been with her for decades.

There is only the second elder in the family. Lin Jinyan once asked for a nanny, but his grandfather refused. Every time Lin Jinyan came back, his grandfather would cook for him.

Grandpa's skills are not as good as grandma's, but he also puts his heart and soul into it. When the table is set up, there are six dishes and one soup, which is very impressive.

Lin Jinyan pushed the ignorant grandmother to sit at the table and helped her serve food and vegetables.

Grandma quickly stopped him: "Oh, you are a guest, how can I let a guest serve me a meal, I will do it myself, thank you, thank you."

Lin Jinyan put the bowl in front of her, and corrected her for countless times: "Grandma, I am your grandson, not a guest."

After he finished speaking, he paused, thinking that what grandma said was right, he didn't come all year round, and if he came once in a while, he came here as a guest.

The grandma laughed and said, "You know how to coax me, my daughter is only sixteen, and she hasn't finished high school yet, so where's the grandson?"

Lin Jinyan stopped talking.

Grandpa brought the last dish from the kitchen, sat down, and said: "You are welcome, just put whatever you want."

Lin Jinyan hummed.

The whole family began to eat in silence, with only the sound of chopsticks touching the dishes.

After a while, maybe Grandpa also felt a little too dull, and said: "Jin Yan, have you looked for a job this year?"

"No." Lin Jinyan paused, "However, I plan to go abroad, continue to study painting, and go to Mrs. Li."

When he went abroad to study painting that year, it was in the hands of Mr. Li.Mr. Li is a well-known watercolor painter. He once took Xu Yun with him, but after immigrating abroad, it was not so convenient to find him.He didn't learn anything afterwards, and when he returned to China, Mr. Li was so angry that he told him to get out and never appear in front of him for the rest of his life.

Grandpa hummed, remembered, and asked, "Didn't you go to his place before?"

"I didn't study hard before, so I'll beg him again this time."

Grandpa hummed again: "This time, we must study hard."

"I will."

At this point in the conversation, there seemed to be nothing more to say.

After a while, it was grandma who spoke instead, and looked at Lin Jinyan with a smile: "You young man, you look quite old, have you gone to college, have you fallen in love? Yunyun is now in high school, there is When a girl falls in love, I will let her go to college to talk about it. If there is a smart, polite and good-looking boy like you in college, I am willing to let Yunyun talk about it."

Lin Jinyan couldn't laugh or cry for a moment: "Grandma, I am your grandson, and I have graduated from college for a long time."

Grandpa brought her some food: "Okay, you can eat, Yunyun University will not fall in love, don't worry."

Grandma was a little unhappy, but she still ate her favorite dishes to save face, and said: "Yunyun also likes braised pork, I will eat less and save it for her to eat after school."

Grandpa has obviously gotten used to grandma's state, and he responded cooperatively, "Leave it to her."

However, whenever Lin Jinyan heard grandma say this, he would always feel stuffy in his heart, and there was no way to relieve it, so he had no choice but to grieve.

After eating for a while, my grandfather was probably reminded by my grandmother, and asked, "Have you met someone this year? You will be 26 after the new year."

Lin Jinyan paused with his chopsticks, and picked up a piece of boiled fish in front of him: "No."

"We can talk."

"Not urgent."

The conversation ends here.

In the afternoon, Lin Jinyan went out to visit Xu Yun first. Every time he came back, he would visit Xu Yun twice, once alone and once with grandpa and grandma, but grandma would not go for the past two years, for fear of irritating her .

After Xu Yun's death, my grandfather insisted on taking the ashes back to Haishi and buried them in the Haishi cemetery.Every year, Lin Jinyan would come back one or two days earlier.

The cemetery was a bit far away, and he took a taxi for more than two hours to get there, and bought Xu Yun's favorite red rose nearby.

Although Haishi is located in the south, it is also bleak in winter, and the cemetery is even more bare, or there are a few withered grass.

There was no one in the sky cemetery, so Lin Jinyan found Xu Yun's location easily.

If there is anything to be happy about after a person dies, it is probably that when she died young, with a few photos, her face will remain forever in the hearts of those who still remember her.

The Xu Yun on the tombstone was when she was the most lively and beautiful in her life, her smile was free of any impurities, under the winter sun, it was as pure as melting ice and snow, and as delicate as a rose in his hand.

Lin Jinyan bent down and put down the rose.

In the past few years, every time he came to see Xu Yun, he always had a different mood.

When I was in college, I regretted Xu Yun and hated Lin Pingsheng.

After graduating, I still feel unreconciled to Xu Yun's death, unhappy that Lin Pingsheng can still be so comfortable, and feel guilty that I am sorry for Xu Yun's expectation.

When he came again this time, it was difficult for him to be at peace.

"mom……"

After thinking about what to say for a long time, he finally closed his mouth.

Lin Jinyan sat with Xu Yun for a while, and left with his face stiffened by the cold wind.

"I'll see you next time."

As he walked out of the cemetery, he took out his old mobile phone.

There was a secondary card that was given by the operator when applying for the card in the phone, and he sent a message to Gu Xu.

"I've decided to break up. If you have anything to say, let's talk about it when I go back to Beishi. Don't go back."
