Mr. Meng praised Tongtong in front of the Lin family: "This child is the most qualified among my disciples. Even my eldest disciple, there are many who are not as good as him."
That's no comparison! That's a real national expert.
Mr. Meng waved his hand, "It's not a compliment. If this child accepts me as my disciple, he is my disciple. As a master, I always tell the truth to every disciple. I tell you the same thing, and I tell others the same thing. That's right.
I'm never polite when it comes to criticism, but I'm also never modest about praise. Let's put it this way, in the future, she will be one of the top seats in domestic medicine."
Lin Xiyuan's face was complicated, "Mr. Meng, to tell you the truth, this child has been delayed by us due to family troubles. It is Tongtong's blessing to meet a famous teacher like you." After saying this, he stood up and said, "I
Let me bow to you!"
Don't dare to take it!
Lin Youqu quickly stood up and bowed, "Mr. Meng, this junior doesn't know how to be grateful."
Hey! What are you grateful for? This is also the fate of our masters and disciples. "I just have a small request. I don't know if it is appropriate to make it at this time?"
But it doesn’t matter!
"My disciple is sought after by others. If everyone knows that she is my disciple, it will put too much pressure on her. The reputation of a doctor and his disciple are one aspect, but the reputation of the patient is the most important."
On the other hand, don’t ask anyone to disturb her, and ask her to complete this initial period of precipitation..."
I understand! I understand. In fact, what I want to say is that your family's situation is a bit complicated. If more people know about it, it will cause a lot of trouble. Then it is better to carry on as usual and stop talking to anyone.
Lin Youqu said hurriedly: "You are right! This junior has written it down." This not only means not to tell Peng Hui, Peng Weikuan, but also to hide it from Fang Ran.
Maybe he doesn't avoid it, but what's the benefit of Peng Hui knowing about it?
They just didn't make this point so obvious.
I paid a courtesy visit and didn't stay long. I brought a lot of things, and Mr. Meng accepted them all. He politely sent people to the car. Tongtong did not leave, but only waved to the Lin family behind the master. Then he told his brother
: "Don't drink anymore, I've frozen dumplings in the refrigerator..."
Got it! Go get busy.
On the way back, Lin Shuhan's smile never faded.
Grandma asked, "Shuhan, Tongtong didn't say anything when he came back. You should ask more questions."
"She is a show-off, and she has everything in mind." Lin Shuhan looked out the car window, "She has been smart since she was a child, but she just doesn't like to talk. It's not that she doesn't like to talk at home, she doesn't like to talk to anyone.
.”
Lu Gaogong felt very uncomfortable, "I will learn and plan by myself, and then I will do everything by myself... This won't work either."
Lin Xiyuan sighed, what else could he say now that things have come to this? "Shu Han, if she doesn't want to talk to the family, you have to think of things that need to be handled by the family! I still have some connections with your grandma."
Lin Shuhan said: "I want to take the public examination..."
Senior Engineer Lu was stunned for a moment, "The railway department is also a national ministry..."
"But I will probably have to stay within the department for the rest of my life, and I don't want to do that."
Senior Engineer Lu was silent, "Don't you like roads and bridges?"
Lin Shuhan was silent for a long time, and then said: "Since I was a child, I have probably become tense! I have always been meticulous in living, studying, and doing things. I am so organized. I just want to change and face a situation.
Make a mess, find threads in the mess, and then deal with it and straighten it out..." This may be a way to treat obsessive-compulsive disorder. "I recently met a friend, and what he said made sense. It was like what he said.
, when dealing with personnel matters, it doesn’t matter if you have one more point. In fact, it’s not a big problem if you have one point less. This is a problem that you can relax and deal with. But roads and bridges, not! They are too serious and regular, and they cannot tolerate a little mistake...
I feel tired from being so tense all the time."
Before Senior Engineer Lu could say anything, Lin Youqu, who was driving, said, "Okay! Go ahead. Just do it if you want to, as long as you like it."
I can't say I like it, but after listening to Jinye, I thought it might be good to change my lifestyle. Besides, "I want to move out."
Lin Xiyuan laughed loudly, "Okay! If you move out, move out. Now that you are a young man, it's time to socialize."
Senior Engineer Lu also laughed. He is a grown man. If he really wants to take a girl home, the environment and atmosphere at home are not suitable. Living out is also suitable!
Lin Youqu said: "You rent a house first, don't be in a hurry about buying a house..."
"I have already bought it, fifty square meters, which is enough to live in."
What kind of living space is there? Lin Youqu felt strange. He stopped talking and waited until he bought more for them later. Three feet of ice did not last in a day, so who can blame him?
I don't feel uncomfortable at all, but I hate Peng Hui once.
My son got off the bus halfway, saying that he had promised his friend and had something to do.
After sending his parents home, he had to go to school to register. When he arrived at the school parking lot, he met his ex-mother-in-law, Tongtong's grandmother.
He got out of the car and walked out, but the old lady stopped him directly, "Lin Youqu——"
Lin Youqu stopped and turned around to look at her.
The old lady came over in a hurry, "Lin Youqu, it's been twenty years, what did you do with those photos?"
"Everything that deserves to be burned is burned. I just want to tell you that I know what kind of suffering you made my daughter suffer in order to help your daughter hide those scandals. Everyone who deserves to know knows! Old lady, go back, child.
I call you grandma and ask you if you are ashamed or not!"
"What am I ashamed of? What am I ashamed of? I worked hard and frugally to raise her..."
Lin Youqu interrupted her and asked, "Do you have a photo of Tongtong?"
What?
"Do you have any photos of Tongtong, from childhood to adulthood?"
The old lady hesitated and said: "I...I am so old, how can I remember these things?"
"I went into your garage. There are photos hanging on the wall. Everyone has them, except Tongtong and Shuhan. It's okay if there's no Shuhan. After all, he only goes there on weekends and stays there during the holidays.
, there is no photo of him... What about Tongtong? There is no group photo, and there is no single photo. Maybe there is, it should be a photo taken at school. She never has one at home. Oh! That's not right, not completely.
No. There is a photo under the glass on your coffee table. It is a photo of you, Tongtong's grandfather, and Baiyun with Baiyun's little daughter. At that time, there was a mirror on the side of you. When you go back and look, there is a photo in the mirror.
The shadow of the child looking at you pitifully is Tongtong. That was probably the only time in these years that she appeared in a group photo of your family."
The corners of the old lady's mouth twitched, and she wanted to open her mouth to refute several times.
Lin Youqu opened his wallet and found a photo inside. He showed it to the old lady, "This is the first time I brought Tongtong back to the Lin family. A photo of me and my three children..."
In the photo, the young father placed his two young daughters on his knees, one on each side. The older son was riding on his father's shoulders and holding his ears.
"The Lin family has these photos! The Lin family has many...the photos of each child can be plastered all over the four walls of the house. But you can't take out any of these photos. So, don't put anything in front of me and help me through all the hard work."
The love for raising a daughter is over. If your daughter has to endure the same suffering that my child has endured, then I, Mr. Lin, will be too incompetent."
After saying that, he turned around and left, slowly put his wallet on his body and walked away.
Grandma Lin felt very unhappy after being told that Tongtong hadn't called her for a long time, let alone been here. She tremblingly took out her cell phone and called Ruoruo, "Can I contact your sister?"
Xiao Ruo has become even thinner. After a vacation, she is so thin that a gust of wind can blow her away. She is heading to school with her suitcase, and now she feels disgusted when she sees her grandma calling. She resists and answers the call.
She was asking her sister, but she felt very irritable: "Why are you looking for my sister? What are you asking her to do? If you have something to do with my mother, what can we do?" After saying that, she hung up the phone.
What can my sister do if she finds out about such a disgusting thing?
Seeing the phone being hung up, Grandma Lin had no choice but to call Bai Yun, "Yun, remember to come by after you get off work. There's something important...especially important..."
What's important!
Baiyun carried all kinds of vegetables in her hands and hurried home to cook. She stamped her feet, "What's wrong? What do you want to buy?"
Not buying anything!
Grandma Lin fumbled with the edge of the bed, took out the photo, and handed it to Bai Yun.
When Bai Yun saw it, he looked outside in panic. When he saw no one, he quickly turned on the stove and burned all the photos. "Did she send it here? What else do you want to do?"
"It was sent by Lin Youqu. He sent it years ago."
What? Why didn't you tell me earlier? "It's New Year's Eve, I want you to have a good New Year..."
What day was it 1 year ago?
"On New Year's Eve..."
Since New Year's Eve, Xiao Yunqian has become even more moody, and almost never goes back to his room to sleep.
So, did Lin Youqu give a copy of these photos to Xiao Yunqian? I’m afraid he did!
She felt cold all over her body from head to toe, and then her face was filled with confusion: "I really just took that wrong step, it was just that one step! Why can't I get rid of it in this life! Can't you tell me to live a good life?
My day? Why? Why is this happening?”
Grandma Lin said: "It's my fault! Blame me! Lin Youqu dislikes me for treating Tongtong badly... He didn't want to make things easier for you!"
Just because of Tongtong?
Yes! Just because of Tongtong.
Baiyun didn't say anything, picked up the vegetables and left.
But when Tongtong returned to Lin's house, he met Baiyun waiting at the gate of the community.
She blocked Baiyun, probably because the call was not connected, so she came to the door by herself.
Today I went to Master's house with the Lin family and didn't drive. So I took the bus back and met Bai Yun face to face as soon as I got off the bus.
Bai Yun pointed to a Sichuan restaurant not far away, "Let's go have a meal, okay?"
Tongtong pointed to a teahouse nearby, "Let's have a cup of tea, I'm not hungry yet." After saying that, he walked in first. Who is drinking tea at this hour? There were only two people in the huge shop, mother and daughter.
Tongtong asked for black tea and drank it slowly. Baiyun asked for Pu'er and kept turning the cup. Seeing that Tongtong had almost finished the cup of tea, he said: "Tongtong, your father seems to have misunderstood me...
…”
Tongtong smiled: "Ms. Bai——"
What? What did you call me?
"I call you Ms. Bai!" Tongtong said and stood up and asked her: "Yes, you are my mother! But I call you 'Mom', and when you agree, here..." She pointed to her chest.
, "When you agreed, wasn't it uncomfortable here? Can you afford to say 'Mom'?"
