Lianzhou

The next day was Saturday, and Yu Lichu went back to his parents' house while he was free. His family was from N City, which has a large area and is divided into many districts. It takes half an hour to drive to work without traffic jams. It is pure luck to get on the subway sooner or later, so after graduation, Yu Lichu rented a house near the hospital by himself and did not go home often.

His family moved into a high-rise complex when he was in junior high school, and the floor he bought was exactly the tenth floor. At this moment, Yu Lichu carried a handful of leeks and stood in the elevator box, looking up at the numbers that kept going up, feeling heavy in his heart Congested.

At the door of the house, he took the key and opened the door, but no one came to greet him specially. Yu Lichu took it for granted, put the key on the cabinet, changed into his slippers and went into the living room.

His father is drinking tea on the sofa at the moment, and the TV opposite is being tuned to the local station to play Wulin Biography. Yu Lichu glanced at it, and he is playing the eight methods of preventing theft. He can still recite the next line. When he was a child After watching this drama, I can't move, and I can't finish my summer homework.

In fact, his memory has never been bad.

His father seemed to have just seen him at this time, and greeted him with a teacup: "Son, you are back."

Yu Lichu didn't stop walking, raised his hand and made a false finger at his father: "Drink less tea, I won't be able to sleep at night." Then he changed his tune and said to the kitchen, "Mom, I brought leeks for you. Spread the cake?"

"No, I'll toss two more dishes when you come back. The cake is so time-consuming and you have to spread it yourself." A fucking clear voice came from the kitchen, full of energy.

"Then you still ask me to bring leeks..."

"Come in and serve the plate!"

"Hey!" Yu Lichu turned around and took a look, his father comprehended and stood up accordingly, Yu Lichu was in charge of serving the dishes, his father was in charge of serving the rice with spoons and chopsticks, and when the meeting was over, he and his father had to shirk each other Then I washed the dishes.

In their house, those who don't work don't get food.

Chang Wan took off her apron, washed her hands, and came out of the kitchen. The woman in her 50s was still in good shape, and her original appearance was good. With her professional influence, her demeanor was always dignified and calm.

At least that's how it looks to outsiders.

Not long after the dinner started, Chang Wan suddenly asked, "Why are you back all of a sudden?"

Yu Lichu finished chewing his mouthful of rice, with a careless expression on his face, and his words were thoughtless, and he replied casually, "I miss you."

As soon as the words came out, his father couldn't hold back a mouthful of choking, but Yu Lichu's hand was not as fast as his mother's. As soon as he stretched it out, Chang Wan was already patting his father's back to help him relax.

"You don't come here. I have raised you for more than 20 years. I don't know what kind of temperament you are. I will go home when I put something on my mind. Otherwise, I won't even see my shadow."

Yu Lichu couldn't refute it for a while, but Chang Wan continued as if thinking of something: "By the way, isn't the manpower shortage after the former chief physician of your department retired? Hired a doctor from the city hospital next door, and the thirty-year-old is also a deputy senior."

Yu Lichu took a piece of tomato and put it in his mouth, but he didn't know if he was listening or not.

"The doctor's ability and experience are good, but his reputation in the original hospital was not very good, and he has a background. This time he was poached here and stared at it. You can roll your eyes and you can figure it out—hey, talking to you Woolen cloth."

Chang Wan gently pushed Yu Lichu as she spoke, and seemed to disapprove of his attitude of staying out of the way, "The director of the department only let you join last year, your education is strong enough and your resume is beautiful, even though you have only worked for three years , but I haven’t lost much in ability and experience, so it’s only natural for you to be assigned this position—”

Chang Wan was forced to stop for the second time, only to see Yu Lichu put a piece of ribs on her rice, looked up and smiled at her harmlessly, Chang Wan had to pause because of this little thoughtfulness , gave him a nonchalant glance, and continued: "But you are still a little young in the eyes of others at your age, and you don't seem to be able to take care of things. You should pay attention, Director Wang, have you met? Your father I know him well, and I have already greeted you. If you go there in person, he will not give you face. He can also check on personnel changes. Your hospital is so competitive, and you don’t know much about being downgraded. How many years have you worked, you can't take this loss to anyone, if he troubles you at work in the future, don't confront you head-on, Huairou, Huairou understand?"

Yu Lichu didn't seem to care much, holding the food neatly with his chopsticks: "People don't necessarily come here to target me, as long as he doesn't bother with MR, he can't do anything to me if he doesn't stay in the same room."

Chang Wan still wanted to speak, but Yu Lichu picked up a chopstick of lettuce and put it in her bowl at the right time: "Don't worry, you have been your son for 11 years for nothing, and he is not the same as Uncle Wang, and my few Chinese pieces." Smoking for nothing, every time I sit next to him and listen to him talk about the glorious past, I almost get lung cancer from second-hand smoke."

Chang Wan threw him a clever look at you, and the meal continued without a sound.

In the end, it was Yu Lichu who washed the dishes.

Yu Lichu felt that although his family advocated equal rights, no matter how he looked at himself, he was at the bottom of the food chain.

Both of his parents are doctors. Chang Wan is a psychologist and has his own studio. His father is a pharmacist. He was originally in the affiliated hospital of N University, but he has already retired early.

The old doctor is a sweet pastry. After his father retired, he was invited by others to take a part-time job. In fact, he just drank tea and wrote at home every day. Occasionally, he was called by his old colleagues to have a meal, and he helped relatives and friends to diagnose diseases for free. , I can do Tai Chi when I have nothing to do at home, and I can also earn income every month. Don't live a small life too moist.

When Yu Lichu was still young, his parents' colleagues often joked with him, saying that your parents, one who is good at poisoning and the other who is deceptive, are a natural match.

As for his parents, one is named Yu Zhou and the other is Chang Wan.

It's not a match made in heaven.

Yu Lichu dried his hands, poured himself a glass of water and went to the living room, seeing his parents sitting on the sofa watching the noon news.

Yu Lichu stood aside drinking water with one hand in his pocket, watched the TV unfocused and said, "Mom, that leek smells strong, I'll fire it tonight."

"Don't you want to eat cake?"

"You also said it took a lot of work."

His mother leaned on his father, and after listening to his words, she slowly looked over her eyes, paused for a while, but thought painstakingly in her heart: "If you stay at home until tomorrow afternoon, I will spread it out for you in the evening."

After all, he is his own son, how could he not think about it at all.

"Okay." Yu Lichu smiled lightly, and answered very simply.

He sat on the armrest of the sofa and watched the news with him. The host talked about the peace and prosperity.

Chang Wan likes to grow flowers in his free time, and he talks about raising his temper. At this moment, there seem to be two more flower pots on the balcony than when he came back last time.

Yu Lichu lowered his hands and touched the leaves of Clivia. The flower stems had stretched out between the bright and reflective leaves, but it would bloom in a week or two.

What Chang Wan said was right, he had something on his mind, but it was nothing too important. After leaving home in college, whenever he had something on his mind, he would run home. It was completely out of instinct, so it's no wonder Chang Wan saw it.

He came back this time because he had something to discuss with his parents, but there was something else in his subconscious mind. People are always very intolerant of people and things beyond their control. The man he met in the bookstore yesterday clearly had never met him in his impression. The brief conversation left him brooding.

That tone didn't sound like a fake, it gave people the illusion that the two of them had a close relationship, but now it seems that he is forgetful and unilaterally forgot people.

Although Yu Lichu didn't like to engage in interpersonal communication, it was the first time that he couldn't remember people.

What did you forget?

Yu Lichu stood on the balcony and looked out. The sunny side on the [-]th floor had excellent lighting. The green plants on the ground floor and the red and green basketball court were surrounded by red and green basketball courts. There was vitality everywhere in the sunlight. He looked at it for a while. , The heavy discomfort in the elevator reappeared just now, making it difficult for him to breathe for a moment, and a pimple and chill appeared on his back.

Yu Lichu stabilized his mind, realizing that it wasn't purely physical discomfort, but rather a physiological reaction caused by his mental state. He took half a step back, still looking out of the window, raised his hand to support the door frame and murmured: " Mom, is the price of our building too high?"

When Chang Wan heard the question, she got up and went to the balcony. She originally thought that Yu Lichu just asked the question carelessly, but she saw that his expression was not very good at the moment.

"Lou Gao? Why did you mention this all of a sudden? Are you feeling sick? Why is your face so pale?" Chang Wan said, reaching out and touching Yu Lichu's forehead, "You were not afraid of heights when you were young, did you have a fever last week? Complete?"

Yu Lichu shook his head. Since he was a child, he has a physique with few illnesses and few disasters. Occasionally, he had a serious illness. Last week, he had a fever for no reason. He had a fever for two days before the temperature went down. His symptoms were inexplicably cured immediately.

He felt that he might have burnt out once and burned his brain out.

Yu Lichu breathed a sigh of relief, changed the subject suddenly, and then talked about his main purpose of coming back this time: "Mom, I got a call from the landlord last night, and she said she wanted to take the house back and renovate it for her son. The wedding room, I have to figure it out, I have to move out when I get married in half a year next month. It may be a bit difficult to find a house with a reasonable price and a decent environment in the area of ​​our hospital. I am thinking about coming back to discuss it with you , you usually help me to pay attention, otherwise I will have to move back in time."

Chang Wan nodded after listening, as if thinking about something seriously, Yu Lichu waited quietly by the side, not in a hurry.

In the end, Chang Wan seemed to remember something, and her tone was a little excited: "I remembered, there is indeed such a thing, Director Yan of the Department of Brain Surgery has a good relationship with your father, last week when your dean's daughter got married, your father and him both went , At the meeting, I told your dad that his son has a suite near the hospital, and it’s empty to live alone, and he wants to rent a room to go out. His dad wanted to find someone he knew and trusted for fear of problems, and asked Has your father recommended someone suitable for you?"

Yu Lichu was a little sensitive about this Yin's surname: "What's his son's name?"

Chang Wan turned around and shouted to the living room after listening, "Old Yu, what is the name of Yan Shenming's son?"

In the living room, his father replied angrily in a short while: "Yan Yan, Yan Yan who laughs at Yan Yan."

After hearing this, Yu Lichu laughed a little. Things in this world are always so coincidental, and he was caught off guard by surprise.

"I know the bottom line. Is his dad looking for a roommate or a partner for him? He must be in his twenties this year."

Chang Wan glanced at him, and when she heard this, she couldn't help but want to babble: "I don't care about you anymore, you are already 28, and your family is a medical student, and your mother and I are also enlightened. Regardless of gender, you are in the same place. Bring it back and show it to me, it’s not that you’re so ugly that you’re so ugly, you’re not homeless, you don’t have a car, you don’t have money, you, a young man with a bright sun and a bright sun, why don’t you have a good life.”

Yu Lichu didn't care much about Chang Wan's impatience: "Isn't it just a matter of walking and watching? After all, you have to be careful if you are right. If you didn't meet my dad back then, you'd be happy. Are you married?"

Chang Wan listened to it, and listened to it. After thinking about it for a while, she changed her expression and waved her hands and came over: "Forget it, forget it, son, let's not let it go, we can't let it go, I didn't meet your father, your mother and I I guess I will be single for the rest of my life.”

After saying that, there was a commotion on the coffee table in the living room, and Yu Lichu thought, his father might be secretly happy in the living room now.

"I'll talk to your dad? If it's discussed and you go to see the house and feel satisfied, the matter will be settled."

"No, just give me the phone number, and I'll do it myself." Yu Lichu entered the living room with Chang Wan in his arms, looking very happy, "Mom, I'll make the pancakes for tonight, you rest."

Chang Wan felt that his attitude had changed inexplicably, and she was a little confused: "Didn't you look bad just now, and is there any discomfort in your body? It's just a rent together, so happy."

Yu Lichu waved his hand: "There are some questions that I didn't want to understand, and now I finally have a clue... Hey, you don't understand."

The TV in the living room changed the channel at some point, and the lines rang out with the background sound especially appropriate: "The world is so small, so small that when you look back, they are all old lovers you haven't seen for many years."
