Liang Jian's silence made the middle-aged man smile, and he couldn't help it. Old Tang spoke up in time and changed the topic, which relieved Liang Jian's embarrassment.
Liang Jian's silence seemed to give a signal to the middle-aged man. In the following time, he did not give any hint to Liang Jian. Even Sister Yu seemed to have suddenly returned to the state before today, shrewd and capable, without the daughter just now.
The posture, as if everything before was just a dream of Liang Jian.
After dinner, Sister Yu and the middle-aged man were about to leave, but not back to Taihe, but to Jinzhou City. Before leaving, when Liang Jian sent them to the gate of the manor, Sister Yu suddenly stopped him before getting in the car.
Liang Jian was about to turn around and leave.
"Tell me a few words?" Sister Yu asked with a smile.
Liang Jian nodded. The two walked together. Liang Jian looked at Sister Yu and asked, "What do you want to say?"
Sister Yu smiled and said: "You don't have to be so guarded. It doesn't matter if you don't believe my sincerity. Time will prove it. But don't worry, I won't force you. I believe you will be with me willingly."
Sister Yu's words did not make Liang Jian relax his guard, but her self-confidence made Liang Jian more vigilant. A smart person is not scary, but a smart person is scary if he believes in something, because there is almost no possibility that he can't do it.
Liang Jian didn't want to break up with Sister Yu yet, so he couldn't speak too harshly, he always had to leave some room, and said: "Then let time prove it."
After Sister Yu's eyes wandered on Liang Jian's face for a while, she suddenly put away the smile on her face and said: "I will go back to Hong Kong tomorrow and will stay there for a month. The expedition team will arrive the day after tomorrow, and I have already followed the leader
I said hello, as long as there are no problems on your side, there will be no problems with this inspection."
Angela's project cooperation has been confirmed. The inspection team is here to inspect the actual situation and lay the foundation for the project design. It will not have a big impact on the cooperation between the two parties. So when Sister Yu said that she would go to Hong Kong, Liang Jian didn't think it was a big deal.
, after saying a few polite words, Liang Jian sent his sister to the car. When the car left, Liang Jian breathed a sigh of relief.
After they left, Liang Jian wanted to leave for Taihe after a while, but Old Tang said that it had been a long time no see and asked Liang Jian to stay one night and have dinner with him by the way.
Dinner is definitely not an ordinary dinner.
Old Tang spoke, and Liang Jian had to call home and tell Liang's father and others about the situation. When Liang's mother heard that Liang Jian was going to spend the night outside again, she sighed and said, "Old Tang is already here, why don't you come home?"
Nishang even said yesterday that she missed him and didn't come to see his granddaughter."
In response to Liang's mother's complaint, Liang Jian could only explain that there was something going on here and he couldn't leave.
Women are always emotional animals. In their view, as long as they have the will, there is nothing they can't walk away from. After muttering a few words, he hung up the phone angrily. Listening to the beeping sound, Liang Jian felt helpless.
.
"What? Have you been told?" Old Tang glanced at him and asked with a smile while putting down his tea cup.
Liang Jian smiled and said, "No." After saying that, he lowered his head and put away the phone. Next to him, Old Tang looked at him with a smile on his face. Suddenly, he narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was recalling
What.
Liang Jian put away the phone and thought about whether he should ask Sister Yu what happened to come to him and whether it had something to do with Sister Yu's forced marriage. But Liang Jian just raised his head and before he opened his mouth, Old Tang said
He spoke first: "Did Uncle Tang tell you?"
Liang Jian was stunned and immediately understood what Old Tang was talking about, and his heart suddenly became heavy. He nodded and hesitated: "I told you. I haven't thought about it yet."
"How long will it take you to think about it!" Old Tang asked. His voice was not strong, and his tone was not serious, but when it fell into Liang Jian's ears, it was very heavy, like a big stone, pressing hard on him.
It makes people breathless all of a sudden.
Liang Jian tightened his mouth, as if he was afraid that if he didn't tighten his mouth, he would accidentally say something against his will. But, as Old Tang said, how long would it take for him to think about it. How long would it take?
How long? Liang Jian doesn't know. Maybe it's because, from the bottom of his heart, Liang Jian still can't accept the path that has been arranged.
In the past, before he was admitted to the civil service examination, Liang Jian always thought that he would become a scholar. Later, after he was admitted to the civil service examination and struggled on this road for so long, he must have failed to become a scholar, but he still had something in his heart.
The pursuit and bad nature of literati, such as the unwillingness to be arranged.
However, fate often does not allow people to resist. Everything has a price. Perhaps from the day Nishang was born, his fate has been doomed. Even if he resists again, one day he will still be
It's just a matter of sooner or later that we will come down this road.
Since it's just a matter of sooner or later, why bother?
Some people think that there is no difference between morning and evening, but since dying early and dying late are both deaths, why don’t people all die together, and why do we have to go through this miserable life. Therefore, there is a difference between morning and evening. Liang Jian argued in his heart
That's the difference.
However, to what extent can this distinction be considered complete?
Liang Jian didn't dare to look at Old Tang, for fear that once he looked at him, he would no longer be able to hold on to the persistence in his heart. But things always have to be faced, right?
Old Tang also said the same, and Liang Jian didn't know how to answer other than staying silent.
Old Tang just stared at him, motionless, not even blinking. Liang Jian felt the burning pain in that place, which was caused by Old Tang's gaze.
"What are you resisting?" Old Tang finally couldn't help asking. This is what he has always wanted to ask, but he has always been afraid that this sentence will hurt his heart, and more importantly, he is afraid of being hurt.
My own heart.
What is he resisting?
Liang Jian didn't know, and couldn't tell clearly. There were many, but it seemed there weren't many.
Silence was like a dull knife, slowly cutting the two people's bodies. For a long time, Liang Jian raised his head and looked at Old Tang. He was looking into the distance with a vicissitudes of life. When he saw his gray hair, his heart suddenly felt...
Just go soft.
After all, blood is still a family relationship thicker than water. If he could be cruel enough, he would not have recognized each other back then. Liang Jian finally bowed his head to his inner self. However, there are some things that he still wants to ask.
Liang Jian thought for a long time before speaking: "When you gave me to my father and the others, did you already have this day in mind?"
After saying these words, looking at Old Tang in the distance, Liang Jian suddenly turned his head and saw the hurt that could not be concealed in his eyes. Suddenly, his heart felt as if it had been torn hard by that blunt knife.
Just when he was thinking about what to say to make up for it, Old Tang replied: "I don't deny that I thought about it back then, but it was because I wanted revenge. Others can reunite as a family and live in harmony, so why should I?"
My biological son was separated. You were only that old at that time, and I didn’t even hear your first cry of daddy! I have a son of my own, and I know where he is, but I can’t go find him. You know this kind of thing?
How hard does it feel? Especially every time I..." When Old Tang said this, he suddenly choked up. He turned his head, quietly raised his hand to wipe the moisture from the corners of his eyes, looked up at the sky, and calmed down for a while
Finally, he turned back to Liang Jian and said hoarsely: "Liang Jian, if you still doubt my feelings for you, it doesn't matter. I don't blame you. It's because I didn't do a good job. I owe you too much."
…”
"Dad, I'm sorry!" Liang Jian lowered his head, feeling sour and uncomfortable and ashamed surging in his chest. He couldn't look at his reddish eyes: "I shouldn't ask this."
"I won't force you to come to Beijing. When you feel you can trust me, you can come again." After Old Tang finished speaking, he stared at him for a while, and then stood up.
When Liang Jian heard the noise and raised his head, Old Tang had already left. Liang Jian wanted to chase him, but he stepped forward and then stepped back. What was the point of chasing him now? Do you want to tell him that he is willing to go to Beijing?
But, is he willing?
Liang Jian suddenly looked down on himself. Anything involving emotions, whether it was family or love, Liang Jian could not handle it well. His courage at work was reduced to tofu when it came to emotional matters.
It will break if poked, and cannot stand the test at all. Just like what happened this time, why can't you just deal with it? Is the stubbornness in your heart so important?
But he complained, and he still couldn't get over this hurdle in his heart.
Old Tang didn't know where he had gone. Liang Jian was worried and asked Tang Yi about it. Tang Yi glanced at him and said, "Do you know what your father regretted most in his life?"
Liang Jian was surprised that Tang Yi suddenly said this, and shook his head and said he didn't know.
Tang Yi looked at him and suddenly smiled, his smile inexplicably sad. He said, "The thing he regrets most in his life is that he didn't take a step back."
At that time? Which time? Liang Jian frowned and asked, "I don't understand."
"You and he are truly father and son. Their personalities are exactly the same." Tang Yi suddenly shook his head and sighed. Liang Jian heard a lot from his voice. He thought of the deceased old man of the Tang family, who was him.
's biological grandfather.
Liang Jian didn't ask Tang Yi to confirm anything, the answer was no longer important. Tang Yi's meaning was already clear. He was warning Liang Jian not to be like Old Tang and only regret not doing that when he was old.
Liang Jian was silent.
After a while, Tang Yi suddenly told him something seriously about Xiao Wu. Tang Yi's original words were: "If you don't plan to return to Beijing in the near future, then let Xiao Wu come back first." He told him
After living with you for so many years, many things have been left behind, and it’s time to go back and make up for the lessons! If you really plan not to return to Beijing in the future, with him here, at least the Tang family will not be in trouble! "
These words made Liang Jian feel more burdened.
Liang Jian asked him: "When do you plan to let Xiao Wu come back?"
Tang Yi glanced at him and replied: "Before the end of this year."
"Okay, I understand." Liang Jian replied, his heart full of complicated emotions. Not far away, Xiao Wu was standing under a tree, fiddling with something.
