Yu Mei's**
At home, a small living room.
Yu Bowen and Ye Hong were sitting side by side on the sofa. Although the TV was on, there was no sound.
Turning the porcelain cup gently in his hand, Yu Bowen's expression was somewhat unspeakable and indifferent. It took a long time to say: "Daughter, you must know it in your heart?" Perhaps this question has been buried in my heart for too long. When Yu Bowen was speaking, he held the porcelain cup tightly, his knuckles had changed color, but his facial expression had not changed at all.
Ye Hong sighed softly and said: "Meizi used to have bad bones, and it makes no difference whether she gets married or not. Even if the Yang family has any thoughts in her heart, she will not express it, and the situation in the past few years must be yours. I can see that the two of them are getting along well, but Meizi's body has suddenly recovered in the past six months, and some problems have emerged."
Yu Bowen also sighed and said: "The performance of the Yang family at this time has even been noticed by Meizi. What's more, it's us. Sometimes I also wonder if it was deliberately made for us to see? Unless... However, I feel that Meizi's mind has changed a little. It seems that as the body gradually recovers, it also gradually means alienation from there."
Ye Hong hung his eyelids and pondered for a while before he said: "We are just such a daughter. I don't want to force her to go the way she doesn't want to go. These years have passed, and I have seen a lot of things. In the past, there was no other way. Yes, but now, Meizi should be given enough freedom to let her be the master once, okay?"
Yu Bowen focused his eyes on his wife's face for a moment, then suddenly nodded, and said: "Let's not bother, let it be."
Ye Hong sighed softly when he heard the words, and said: "The things in the world are really wonderful. When there was no hope before, you can face anything detached. Now that you are happy from the sky and see hope, there are so many thoughts in your heart that you shouldn't have. "
On the contrary, Yu Bowen turned his head and persuaded: "How can this be an idea that shouldn't have been there? It's just lost in the past, and now the opportunity to have has reappeared. It's not an idea that shouldn't be there. We haven't experienced anything. Look a little bit further, now as long as a daughter can have a happy life, it is better than anything else."
Ye Hong nodded slightly and said, "I'm very happy if you can say that. Alas, I'm also hurting you. Otherwise, why would the Yu family be today? If it is..."
Yu Bowen stretched out his hand to stop Ye Hong's words, and smiled: "You are pulling away again, isn't Mei Zi from Yu family's bloodline? Now her bones have been restored, and when she has a child, let her surname Yu not be enough, that's a big deal. Just give birth to two."
Ye Hong chuckled when he heard the words: "How do you say it, it's a big deal to give birth to a few more. You think it's still the same as before. Besides, this kind of thing is not what we can do. You have to look at the plum. What I mean, not to mention them... "Thinking of her daughter's family problems, Ye Hong couldn't help but feel gloomy. "When I come back tonight, I will ask Meizi to talk about it."
Yu Bowen gave an "um", shook his head slightly, and said, "If we hadn't insisted, maybe there would have been no such marriage. If you want to, it will be much easier now."
Ye Hong pursed her lips and said, "If Meizi wouldn't go to Zhou'an County alone to teach because of this relationship, then there would be no chance to meet Zhang Feng. Without this student of her year, Meizi and I would also There is no chance to restore health today."
Yu Bowen was stunned for a moment before saying: "One drink and one peck, is it pre-determined? It seems that everything in this world has cause and effect."
Ye Hong shook his head and said, "You are metaphysical, between everything..."
Yu Bowen waved his hand in time and said: "Let's not discuss this, you have seen Zhang Feng twice, how do you feel?"
Ye Hong glared at her husband. He interrupted every time he encountered this topic. It was not that he was unwilling to debate, but that he had his own persistence. It was difficult for other people to control his thoughts, but it was only the past few years. His way of dealing with the world has become softer. "There is nothing to say about his perception. Apart from being a little immature in his official career, he has profound knowledge far beyond his age in other aspects, and his way of thinking is more mature, unlike what a young man should have. If it can be polished carefully, it would be a good material."
Yu Bowen let out a "Oh" and said: "Judging from the papers between him and Meizi, they do not match his age and seniority. I originally thought it was influenced by Mr. Tang. Now I listen to you. , It’s not necessarily, besides, the Tang family didn’t have much success this time, so it should have nothing to do with Tang Elder."
Ye Hong said: "Speaking of this, I remembered one thing. The person who injured the old Li's child was Zhang Feng? Why doesn't it seem like that? Zhang Feng should not be such an impulsive person. What is unknown?"
Yu Bowen was startled for a moment and said: "If you say this, I don't think that matter can withstand scrutiny. Zhang Feng had already decided to go to work next to Lao Li at that time, so how can I not understand the situation of Lao Li's staff? Clear? It's impossible not to know Li Bing. How could I break Li Bing? Then he returned to his original unit quietly, and then retired."
Ye Hong pondered for a while before saying: "Did the other people who followed Tang Elder back then also retired?"
Yu Bowen's expression moved and said: "Maybe this is the reason, let me pay attention."
Zhang Feng followed Yu Mei and walked all the way west from the entrance of the recuperation center. After walking for more than half an hour, Yu Mei stopped at the entrance of a small shop and said, "I haven't been here before? I didn't look at the door with a small face, but a little roast duck. It’s not worse than Quanjude’s, and the environment is much cleaner. Well, the most important thing is that it’s relatively close and there is no need to take a taxi.” I couldn’t help but laugh.
Zhang Feng was also stunned by Yu Mei’s reasons. He followed Yu Mei into this small shop and sat down by the window on the second floor. After ordering food, he began to pay attention to the environment here. The entire second floor. There are only four tables, and only their table of guests. It's time for lunch now, and it's really clean. No wonder you don't even use the boxes.
The location that Yu Mei chose was not the side facing the street, but the rear window of the hotel. Through the glass, one could see that there was a lotus pond with a large area outside, and there were three or five fishing rods on the side of the pool. The fishermen in this group have a laid-back style. It doesn't feel like they are in Beijing, but rather like the countryside.
As if guessing Zhang Feng’s thoughts, Yu Mei said with a light smile: “This is already an urban-rural junction. You don’t want to think about how the recuperation center will be built in the city center. Naturally, you have to choose a slightly better air. It’s a place. Don’t look at this small shop when it’s a little deserted, but after the evening, it will be overcrowded."
Zhang Feng's mind was not on this, he was still thinking about the words Yu Mei said when he was on the street just now.
Perhaps because of the small number of customers, the food served in the restaurant was extremely fast, and the table was filled without much effort. Yu Mei ordered two bottles of beer, and the waiter set out the wine and dishes, and left after opening the beer bottle. On the second floor, only Zhang Feng and Yu Mei were left. They were much quieter and more convenient. Yu Mei and Zhang Feng had a drink before they said, "What are you thinking about?"
Zhang Feng put down the wine glass and said, "I'm thinking about what you just said, is there any problem with your family with Brother Yuan?"
Yu Mei paused for a while with the wine glass in her hand, then sighed, and said: "Well, this is actually nothing. At the beginning of the marriage between the two Yangs, the key was political considerations. You also know the physical condition of my sister. , You can’t get married at all. Even if you get married, you won’t have a married life. What’s more, at that time, my sister didn’t think about her lifelong problems.”
Zhang Feng sighed inwardly. It turns out that he did have doubts in this regard. Today, Yu Mei said that he had another inside story.
Yu Mei took out a box of elongated ladies’ cigarettes from her handbag, took out one to light it, and took a sip very skillfully. Then the faint smoke enveloped her face, giving people a looming and ethereal feeling. It is the first time that Zhang Feng has seen Yu Mei smoking. It seems that there is no such impression in the memory of his previous life, but I have to admit that Yu Mei when he smoked has a more intoxicating charm, and Zhang Feng's eyes are imperceptible. Flashed for a moment.
After a sigh of relief, Yu Mei seemed to relax completely, and said: "At that time, my dad was the Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee of Beiyuan Province. Because I didn't want this marriage, I went to Zhou'an County alone and stayed in a middle school. For a few years, it happened to have taught you this class of students. At that time, the secretary of the Zhou'an County Party Committee used to work at home, Li Jun."
Zhang Feng was slightly startled. Li Jie was once the secretary of the county party committee of Zhou'an County, but it was already very early. It seems that when Yu Mei was still teaching in Zhou'an County, Li Jie was transferred to another place and is now the city party committee of Linshui City. The secretary, I didn't expect to have such a special relationship with the Yu family. I want to come, in Beiyuan Province, the energy of the Yu family is probably far from what it seems to be.
Yu Mei continued: "In order for the Yang family to marry the Yu family, it actually took a lot of effort. Yuan Hongbing and I have a private agreement, which is also the prerequisite for the marriage of both parties, but only between the two of us. Think, needless to say, you can guess, this family is actually only a formality, because you can’t live a married life, naturally you can’t talk about continuation of the offspring. Therefore, I never ask about his private life outside. Yes, he shouldn't lack other women to give birth to him."
Zhang Feng was really stunned this time. Suddenly he understood what he saw when he was in the sauna with Yuan Hongbing. The husband and wife of the lover's family had their own lives. It is no wonder that the Mei family lived for so long. What is weird, but the problem lies here. When I look at Yu Mei again, I can't help but feel an unspeakable emotion in my heart.
