It was raining heavily on the vast field, and an old van gradually appeared from a distance, approaching the village.

The rain hadn't stopped since the day before yesterday, only occasionally the rain slowed down. Duan Ru and the others set out at noon when the rain was light, but it started to rain heavily halfway, and a car full of people was almost trapped in the ravine.

Duan Ru had never experienced anything, but it was the first time for the young people to encounter such a thrilling scene. When they turned the mountain road, they were afraid that a sudden mudslide would bury them in this wilderness.

"It's here, kids, get out of the car." The driver uncle turned around and yelled.

The gate of the village head's house was open, and the old village head had been guarding the door for a long time. When he saw the van stop, he immediately ran across the yard with an umbrella to deliver them.

Duan Ru took everyone to settle down, and the old village head sent someone to call the villagers, and sat around the hall to chat with them.

"Village Chief, where is the best signal here? I want to make a call." Duan Ru asked.Their construction site is in the wild, without a signal tower, and they can only contact the outside world when they return to the village.

The old village head pointed out a place for her. Duan Ru walked to the kitchen with her mobile phone, raised her mobile phone and went around in circles, and finally chose the chaimi pile with the strongest signal, moved a small stool to sit on it and dialed a number.

As soon as the beep rang for the first time, the phone was picked up, and Xu Youcai's loud voice came from the other end: "Honey! I miss you, the last time you called was more than half a month ago!"

"You also know that I don't have a signal here, no, I'll call you as soon as I have a signal." Duan Ru said.

"Hey... Hey, is it raining over there, my wife? Oh, don't get wet. Have you brought enough clothes? Now that the weather is cold, you have to change your clothes immediately when you get wet in the rain, and you have to wait until you wash your usual clothes... ..."

Duan Ru was used to Xu Youcai's ramblings, so she listened to him quietly, saying yes from time to time to express acceptance.

Their team was very unlucky this time. After digging for a long time, the cloth was finally excavated, but it encountered heavy rain for several days. She had to take the students to the nearest village to replenish supplies during the shutdown.

"...It's a good match."

Duan Ru caught a certain sentence and interrupted Xu Youcai: "What did you say? Who is Sun Rou?"

"Oh, wife, did you forget? It's the second girl downstairs, Zhuozi's elementary school classmate, who moved away from junior high school. When I came back to visit relatives last month and met them, I asked them to come to my house as guests."

She searched her memory, and finally remembered a carefree girl with good looks, a tomboy personality since she was a child, and she played well with her son.

But how did Xu Youcai become a gentle and virtuous lady?Is it really the Eighteenth Change of the Female University?

And talked about love with that kid Xu Zhuo?

"Husband," Duan Ru asked, "Zhuozi himself said he broke up with Mr. Du, and then got together with Er Niu?"

Xu Youcai snorted, and replied: "Although the stinky boy didn't say it clearly, Er Niu asked him out several times and he didn't refuse. It must be because he found out that he still likes girls and wants to turn back."

Duan Ru raised an eyebrow unconsciously, and asked again: "Then what's the situation between him and Mr. Du? Haven't contacted again?"

"Contact? Don't try to use his brains when I'm here!" Xu Youcai proudly said, "He is so busy in the company now that he falls asleep when he gets home. Occasionally Er Niu asks him out, so how can he have the time and energy? Contact Du Ziyou."

The corners of Duan Ru's mouth twitched. Hearing Xu Youcai's eloquent talk about his brilliance and martial arts, he finally couldn't help but interrupted: "My husband, do you know that in some respects, your son...is quite similar to you."

"Huh? He looks a lot like me when I was young, but he's not as handsome as me hahahaha..."

Duan Ru: "..."

She rubbed her forehead helplessly. After more than [-] years of marriage, Xu Youcai still has this stupid personality, and she doesn't know how he managed to support such a large company.

The old couple was tired and crooked when a boy ran over and shouted, "Mr. Duan, the villagers are here to deliver supplies. Would you like to come and see?"

Duan Ru hung up the phone and got up to go out. The hall was full of villagers. Men, women and children carried eggs, vegetables and bacon. Some even caught two live chickens. Others came here with nothing to watch.

Very few people from outside came in this valley, and they were the guests of the whole village, so they naturally attracted a lot of attention.Duan Ru directed the students to purchase materials according to the list. After a while of fuss, the villagers left contentedly, and the archaeological team packed their things and prepared to leave.

The old village head called them back: "It's too rainy to be safe, we'd better wait until it's lighter before leaving."

Duan Ru agreed, seeing that there was still time, she hid in the kitchen and made another call.

This time it rang several times before answering, Xu Zhuo greeted with a yawn: "Mom."

"What about work?" Duan Ru said, "Take a break when you're tired, your father is not too busy, don't let him do it."

Xu Zhuo stood up and moved his joints, and said, "It's okay, Dad is busy too. I just took over a lot of things and I need to be familiar with them, and I can get used to them after a while. Are you okay over there?"

After the mother and son chatted for a few words, they finally got to the point.

"What's the matter with Er Niu?" Duan Ru asked, "How many times did your father say you dated her? Did you break up with Mr. Du?"

"How is it possible!" Xu Zhuo replied.

"Then you are lying to your father?" Duan Ru thought of something, and said seriously, "You are also lying to Erniu?"

"Ah...yes, it's not all right," Xu Zhuo hesitated, and laughed embarrassedly, "Actually, Erniu and I are in the same group. The few times she asked me out, I went to see Ziyou gone."

Duan Ru covered her face, she knew it!

Although the father and son have never dealt with each other since they were young, and their personalities are different, one is grumpy and rude, and the other is a gentleman, but they have one thing in common-emphasis on friendship.

At the beginning, Duan Ru had taken a fancy to Xu Youcai and agreed to marry him.Xu Zhuo had just been with Du Ziyou not long ago, how could he step on two boats and get off the rails as soon as he turned around?

Only that old-fashioned Xu Youcai was blinded, and actually thought that his son would easily empathize with others, and even said "how can a man compare to a woman", please, as long as your son likes it, both men and women are treasures in his heart No one can compare!

Duan Ru briefly thought about whether his son had inherited Xu Youcai's stupidity, and then asked, "You should know that this is not a long-term solution. When your father finds out that he has been cheated again, he must not break your leg?"

"Don't worry, we have a plan." Xu Zhuo confided, "Er Niu asked me out a few times to express her interest in me—of course it was for the parents of both parties. I tried to date her for a while, and then I found out that I didn’t call her, and I still couldn’t let go of Ziyou, so I lost my mind day by day, and couldn’t even bring up my interest in work. Then Er Niu gave up on me in despair, so they couldn’t say anything.”

Duan Ru: "..."

I am still optimistic.

Who said this kid didn't inherit Xu Youcai's stupidity?

Has such an excellent gene of mine failed to save their Xu family's idiot tradition! ?

Xu Zhuo is still looking forward to a bright future: "Dad sees that I will never forget Ziyou, and no matter how hard my heart is, I will loosen it. Then I will make more serious things, such as crying Ziyou's name in front of Dad after being drunk, or -"

"Okay, stop talking," Duan Ru said weakly, "Does Mr. Du know your plan?"

"He's busy with important things recently, and I didn't bother him," Xu Zhuo said. "Actually, the whole plan doesn't need his participation, and there's no need for him to worry about it."

Although he spoke eloquently and nicely, Duan Ru always felt that he was thinking too well, so he persuaded: "You should talk to Mr. Du, what should you do if something goes wrong?"

Xu Zhuo kept saying yes, but he didn't know if he really listened.

As the rain gradually subsided, a student came in and told her to get in the car. Duan Ru finally told her to hang up the phone.

Xu Zhuo put down his phone, and Assistant Wen came in to deliver the documents. Seeing that he was in a good mood, he casually teased, "What happened to Mr. Xu? Young Madam asked you out again?"

The "young madam" he was referring to was Sun Rou. Xu Youcai had brought her to the company before, and everyone who could be an assistant was a genius. It was obvious at a glance that Xu Youcai entertained Sun Rou like a daughter-in-law.Xu Zhuo usually gets along with everyone very easy-going, so Assistant Wen talked to him more casually, so he teased him.

Unexpectedly, Xu Zhuo's face darkened when he heard the words, and his tone was serious: "Don't talk nonsense, the horoscope has not been written yet, don't affect the reputation of other girls."

Assistant Wen hurriedly pulled his fingers along his mouth, signaling to shut up.

"I have something to do today, you pack up your things and leave work early." Xu Zhuo said.

Assistant Wen returned to his seat, slandering that it wasn't a date, and his eager look was clearly to see his sweetheart.

Mr. Xu's sweetheart has already returned home, and Aunt Wei poked her head out of the kitchen: "When will Mr. Xu arrive?"

"He's on the way, about half an hour later." Du Ziyou replied.

Aunt Wei sighed, and said, "The journey is too long, and Mr. Xu has had a hard time running back and forth. I'll save some soup for him to take home for supper later."

Du Ziyou shook his head: "No need."

Aunt Wei opened her mouth and wanted to ask something, but she didn't say anything in the end, she retreated to work in the kitchen.

Du Ziyou guessed what she didn't ask, but he didn't want to say more, so he turned and went upstairs.

The area of ​​the new house is much smaller than that of the villa. He had people open up the upper and lower floors. The first floor is the living room, kitchen and gym, and his bedroom, study and entertainment room are all on the second floor.

Du Ziyou took off his suit jacket, loosened his tie, sat down on the single sofa and let out a long breath.

He rubbed his brows wearily, looked up and saw the black grand piano standing quietly in the corner, and couldn't help being dazed.

He didn't go to the company today, but went back to the old house.

It was rare to take the initiative to go back without being called. Du Yongfeng was not at home during the day, and Du Ziyou didn't go back to look for him, but went to see Mr. Du who was sick in bed.

After dismissing the suspicious-looking housekeeper, Du Ziyou learned about his father's recent condition from the nurses, and learned that he was often out of his mind, could recognize people but spoke incoherently, and couldn't even understand what others said.

Du Ziyou sat for a long time before he became sober. The two exchanged a few words, and then left before Du Yongfeng came back from get off work.

The curtains of the floor-to-ceiling windows were wide open, and the afterglow of dusk sprinkled on the dark and shiny piano, like colorful lights lit up in the night.

The boredom in his heart was hard to relieve, so Du Ziyou sat down in front of the piano and played a serenade, and the scene of the old house appeared again with his mind on it.

It is said that when people get older, their hearts will soften. This truth has also been confirmed by my father.

When he recognized himself in a daze, he didn't treat him coldly like he did in the past twenty years, but moved his fingers to make himself come closer to talk.

The first sentence he uttered with difficulty under the oxygen mask was not a reprimand, but a blame for "I haven't come back for a long time".

Du Ziyou's ten fingers were flying in the black and white keys, the melody was beautiful and moving, but the corner of the player's mouth pulled out a sarcasm.

Do you only think about doing good when you are about to die, thinking about making up for the evil you did in the past?It is too late.

But if the man really wanted to make amends, it would be in his favor.In the past, he wouldn't have endured disgust to deal with them, but now he has to think about the future of himself and Xu Zhuo, if he is disgusting, he must pay a price.

Thinking of Xu Zhuo, Du Ziyou's cold face visibly softened to the naked eye.

They separated for almost a month, and they called me and me every day, but Xu Zhuo was too busy and tired, and often talked, and the sound of him falling asleep and snoring softly came from the other end of the phone.

Du Ziyou's heart ached, and he blamed himself for being too selfish, and insisted on calling the other party every day.When he hesitated to ask Xu Zhuo not to force it, Xu Zhuo smiled and said that he couldn't hear his own voice for a day, and he couldn't sleep soundly.

Xu Zhuo was so busy, Du Ziyou thought he would not be free to meet up, and he didn't dare to make a request, but the other party gave him a big surprise and promised him that he would be able to make time for an appointment every week.

Du Ziyou was not stupid, of course he understood that Xu Zhuo's "busy" was intentional by Xu Youcai, so he was even more moved - how much effort did he spend to steal such a little time under Xu Youcai's nose.

He has worked so hard, shouldn't he be rewarded?

Thinking of this, he stopped his flying fingers, looked across the aisle, and landed on the drawer under the bed, where there were bottles and jars for some purpose...

Du Ziyou's cheeks were flushed, and he covered his face with both hands in shame and anger.

The shame is naturally because of that matter, and the anger is because I seem to be getting more and more...desire, desire and dissatisfaction.

no!Can't continue thinking about it.

Guessing that Xu Zhuo was about to arrive, Du Ziyou got up and went downstairs, guarding in the entrance with mixed emotions and it was difficult to calm down.

So when Xu Zhuo closed the door, he immediately saw his preoccupied look.

Xu Zhuo opened his arms and embraced the rushing man, put his lips close to his ears, and asked in a low voice, "What are you thinking, so absorbed?"

"Of course." Du Ziyou rubbed his head on the side of his neck, muttering, "I'm thinking of you."

Of course I am thinking of you.
