In the afternoon, people who came to the Lin family's old house for various reasons said their goodbyes and left one after another. The bustle in the Lin family's old house gradually calmed down. When Cao Tianyun left, he asked Long Liexue if he needed to leave two people behind. Take care of things in the house so that it doesn't seem too cold.
Hearing this, Long Liexue laughed, "Uncle Cao, I'm not that delicate. My dad and I have been here for more than ten years since we were young. We don't need anyone to take care of us. Sometimes we are alone at home. On the contrary, it feels more friendly.¡±
After hearing this, Cao Tianyun said nothing more. He just asked Long Liexue to tell him when he got engaged, and he would arrange the engagement banquet. In fact, knowing that Long Liexue returned to Robin this time When the news of the engagement came, Cao Tianyun was quite surprised, but he was surprised. In his heart, he could only sigh that this was personal fate.
Based on the relationship between the Long family and the Cao family, the engagement banquet was only a few tables of meals, so Long Liexue really didn't need to worry too much. After all the calculations, the only person Long Liexue could invite was Xiaopang. The three families of Shouhou, Tianhe, etc. together are almost a table. The Long family has no relatives in Robin. How many people will be invited to Ziwei's family depends on their family's wishes. It is possible that Ziwei There won't be too many people invited at home, and this engagement won't be too high-profile. Cao Tianyun also runs a high-end restaurant and a hotel in Robin County. For this kind of thing, just make a time to say hello.
However, the engagement was not something that he and Ziwei had discussed. It had to be agreed upon by both parents' parents. Ziwei probably also talked to his parents about it, and the main reason for his father's return this time was Yes, it was because of this matter that the old man of the Long family became angry. He knew that what he was looking for was the daughter of an ordinary family, his high school classmate. After hearing this, the old man was not unhappy, but was very happy. He explained that he had time to take Ziwei to Yandu to meet the elders and let the family get to know each other.
As soon as Cao Tianyun left. As soon as the door was closed, Long Liexue was the only one left in the Lin family's old house. The old house was really clean. The moment the door was closed, Long Liexue seemed to have returned to the past with Long Han. Days together. Although the old house had been cleaned very clean, after walking around the old house alone ¡ú Liexue still found the broom and began to seriously clean the old house from upstairs to downstairs. After sweeping the floor, I found a basin and a rag and quickly cleaned up all the furniture in the old house. I wiped the window bowl clean, and finally went to the patio, picked up the fallen flowers and leaves one by one, buried them in the soil of the flower bed, and fetched water from the spring mouth of the patio. The cobblestones paving the way in the patio were washed clean ¡ú Liexue finished all this silently, taking more than three hours, after finishing all this. After washing his hands, Long Liexue entered the kitchen of the old house again and started washing dishes and cooking. Half an hour later, the smell of chicken soup came from the kitchen
By about 6:20 in the evening, Liexue had already prepared a table of dishes and placed them in the dining room. They were all home-cooked dishes. The chicken soup is used to cook a pot of chicken soup and cabbage. The green cabbage is mixed with the chicken soup. The taste is fragrant and licking. It looks white and beautiful. The chicken is picked up and marinated with Sichuan peppercorns and salt. , drizzled with sesame oil, cut into strips and put them on a plate, and dipped them in water. They looked delicious. In addition, there was a sweet and sour crucian carp, a plate of fried peanuts, and a plate of cold roasted peppers. A plate of stir-fried eggplants with sauce, a plate of shredded green peppers and potatoes, a total of seven dishes. Put the dishes on the table, put down two pairs of bowls and chopsticks, and then dug out a bottle of Robin's Local that looked like an ugly duckling from the wine cabinet full of famous wines. I put the old sorghum that cost more than 20 yuan a bottle from a certain winery on the table. I washed my hands again and put down my sleeves. It was already half past six.
It was January, and Xiaogou Village was close to the mountainous area. The temperature in the afternoon suddenly became colder. When Long Liexue was busy with this, he looked up from the patio. At some point, pieces of snowflakes had begun to float from the sky. down.
As if it was an appointment, Long Liexue had just prepared everything when a few loud knocks on the door of the Lin family's old house came clearly.
Walking out of the dining room, followed the corridor downstairs to the door, opened the door buckle, and opened the door a little. A tall figure was already standing outside the door. The warm light in the Lin family's old house shone on that person's face. It was not Long Han. Who is it again
"Dad!" Long Liexue called out, opened the door, Long Han said "hmm", shook the snowflakes from his shoulders, and walked in. There was a car outside, but the people in the car did not come in, and After watching Long Han come in, he drove to the hotel in the Cultural City.
Long Han entered the door, and Long Liexue closed the door. The father and son, who had not seen each other for several years, looked at each other seriously. A faint smile appeared on their faces, but neither spoke.
"The food has just been prepared,"?Hot! ", Long Liexue said.
"Then let's eat!" Long Han replied, and then walked towards the dining room, Long Liexue followed behind Long Han.
Coming to the dining room, Long Han sat down at the main seat. Long Liexue sat next to Long Han. He took the bottle of wine, opened it, and poured a glass for Long Han and himself. Long Han looked at the familiar bottle of wine. The labels on the bottles produced by Robin's local winery were as simple as the words "LAO Sorghum" in big red letters, and the smile on his face became warmer.
¡°Didn¡¯t this winery collapse two years ago? It¡¯s not easy to drink this wine now!¡±
"Before pouring, I asked someone to collect the last batch of old sorghum produced in this winery. It is now in the cellar of this old house. Dad, you can drink it whenever you want. It's enough!"
After listening to Long Liexue's words, Long Han smiled, raised his glass and touched Long Liexue's glass, then drank all the wine in the glass. The wine was not good, at best it could only be said to be authentic, because this wine Some corns were added during the brewing process, and it was said to be sorghum wine, but there was a scent of corns in this wine that other high-end liquors did not have, and it could not be removed no matter how hard I tried. This is the kind of wine they drank back then, and this is what the father and son still drink now. What they drink is not just a glass of wine, but the love between father and son and the memory of this land.
"This is the wine your mother and I drank as a treat when we got married. In the eyes of people who like to drink, this wine doesn't taste good enough and tastes like corn, but I like it very much because it's true to its nature and not pretentious. If you don¡¯t cover it up, you will be open and honest when you are passionate, and a man should drink like this!¡±
Long Liexue poured another glass for Long Han and himself. I don¡¯t know why. Until today, Long Liexue, who has practiced the Broken Star Art to an unprecedented level, is still a little too drunk. He only has one glass of liquor with over 40 degrees. As he went down, Long Liexue's face began to turn slightly red.
"So this winery collapsed!" Long Liexue put the filled wine glass in front of Long Han, "In this world, not everyone can be true to their true colors. Only great heroes can be true to their true colors. It is the true celebrities who are free from the wind. If you want to When heroes and celebrities do not fight their way out and trample the bones and dignity of the enemy under their feet, others will criticize you as a dirty person when you are romantic. When you are your true character, others will pour sewage on you and give you They will set up traps, dig holes for you, and stab you in the back. In short, they will only be willing to kill you and make you stink. Therefore, heroes who can show their true colors come by killing people, and celebrities who can be romantic also step on people. Come here, it¡¯s been like this for thousands of years!¡±
"So, you want to be a hero? And you already are. From last year to now, you have trampled many people's bones under your feet and will never be able to stand up again" Long Han looked at Long Liexue, his eyes sharpened suddenly. .
"No, Dad, I don't want to be a hero, but I want everyone in the world to be a hero. I don't want to be a celebrity, but I think everyone in the world is a celebrity. Heroes can be true to themselves, and celebrities can be romantic. I don't want to be a hero. Everyone in the world can be elegant and dignified" Long Liexue shook his head.
"Why?"
"If it wasn't like this, how lonely my life would be!"
"Loneliness!" Long Han was silent. After a long silence, he looked at Long Liexue, "For this reason, you killed so many people, and you almost pushed this country into an extremely dangerous situation. middle?"
"Whoever blocks this road is my enemy. Anyone who doesn't follow the rules with me, then I won't follow the rules with him. I have told others before that when I am unreasonable and unbehaved, Problems can always be solved as quickly as possible. Facts have proved that I solved the problems in this country as quickly as possible. Are those people still human beings? If they disclose their property, they are robbers. If they disclose their accounts, they They are thieves. If their nationality is revealed, they are liars. If their deeds are revealed, they are traitors. If their identities are revealed, they are lackeys. Can't we kill such people? Dad, you are a pure soldier, but I am not. On the battlefield, in the hail of bullets, no matter how many people you kill, you will not frown. I have also killed people on the battlefield. The biggest difference between you and me is that for you, your There is only one battlefield, and it is always filled with smoke and bright knives and guns. But for me, my battlefield is everywhere. You are killing people with knives and guns, while some people are using everything to kill people. You may have killed less than 100 people in your lifetime, but those people want to kill 5 billion people. In the end, many things in this world are about the efficiency and speed of killing. Nuclear weapons kill the fastest. At most, countries with nuclear weapons feel that they are superior to others, so the five permanent members of the Security Council are all nuclear-weapon countries. This is the rule of the world. When you use your method to negotiate rules with them, you have already lost before you start. Got it!"
There was silence for a while, a longAfter taking a breath, Long Han picked up the chopsticks in front of him and said only two words, "Eat"
Long Liexue also picked up the chopsticks, "Well, let's eat"
