Chapter two hundred and fortieth warm bed(1/2)
This atmosphere made Zhang Yurong even more cautious. She had never experienced such an occasion. And Li Yan's performance surprised her even more.
I vaguely saw another side of him. It turns out that this guy who has always seemed heartless can also shed tears and be serious. In front of his parents, he is also a child!
This also made her more curious about Li Yan's past. Is he really just working part-time? Because he is embarrassed to come back because he has not become successful? It seems that he is not outstanding now, right? But he has not seen him in the past year.
He works hard to get ahead!
If it were just a family of three, perhaps the excitement of the reunion would have been longer. But because Yu Rong was here, although they had been married for almost a year, they were still the new daughter-in-law who came to the house for the first time, so the father-in-law and mother-in-law had to be careful.
They all gasped and sighed, and they all also felt guilty. Li Yan felt ashamed of his parents, and Li Tang and his wife also felt the same way!
Especially after seeing the situation of his former brother Zhang Tianyi and seeing everything about the Zhang family, Li Tang felt very ashamed. If he had done as well as Zhang Tianyi, his son would have lived a good life and would not have been in high school.
Just run out to work for no reason, right?
In general, after the excitement, I am still happy. Now that Li Yan is back and has an excellent wife, the relationship between the two seems to be good. For the parents, they are very satisfied.
Li Yan and his son drank white wine, while Wang Suzhen and Yu Rong drank a little wine casually. It was not very good, but in such an atmosphere, it was more delicious than expensive wine.
After finishing the meal, Yurong also helped clear the table, but Wang Suzhen rushed to do it. Everyone knew that with her background, she had never done any housework since she was a child. It would be nice if she had this intention.
Yu Rong still felt more or less like a guest here. The house was only so big, and she couldn't go to the room alone. But she felt that Li Yan and his son should be given some space to have a good chat.
Therefore, even if her mother-in-law did not let her intervene in washing dishes or something, she followed her to the kitchen and chatted with her despite being unable to help, which made Wang Suzhen very satisfied and happy.
Li Tang had suffered a gunshot wound back then and was in poor health. However, he lived a relatively leisurely life and was not as hardworking as Zhang Tianyi. He also started to take care of his body early. Although he usually drank a little, he drank in moderation.
I drank a little too much tonight because I was happy.
And Li Yan had already made a wine jar, so this little bit of liquor was nothing to him.
The father and son were sitting in the living room, looking at the TV in front of them, but it was difficult to see the specific content, but they remained silent and did not speak.
Perhaps it is the traditional nature of Chinese men. When they grow up, father and son are rarely able to communicate easily. Since the patriarchal society, men have to maintain a dignified image at home and in front of their children. "Can't raise children?"
Concepts passed down from generation to generation such as “the fault of a godfather”, “a loving mother often fails her son”, and “a strict father and a loving mother” make it difficult for fathers and sons to communicate like friends.
Originally, Li Tang and Li Yan had something to say, but as they grew up and entered middle school, they communicated less and less. Now they are more than ten years apart. Every time Li Yan calls home,
Basically, Li Tang just said a few words, and then let the mother and son talk. He just listened on the side. Now that he got home, it was another scene where the father and son were alone together. Both of them felt that they had something to say.
What, it’s hard to say anything.
Li Yan took out a cigarette, gave his father one, and then helped him light the fire.
Li Tang silently took it and started smoking. Back then, he was still studying, so if he smoked, he would naturally smoke. But now that he is a married adult, he doesn't need to worry about this.
"Are you guys okay?"
"Huh?" After hearing his father's words, Li Yan turned to look at him.
Li Tang gestured to the kitchen with his eyes, "You and Yurong, you won't blame me, right?"
A year ago, Li Tang used the attitude of severing the relationship between father and son, and if he didn't come back, he would never come back, to force Li Yan to surface, and then forced him to agree to get married. Even in a feudal society, this would be smooth on the surface, but behind the scenes
Complaints are relatively rare in the 21st century.
Li Yan thought for a while and said seriously: "If you want to say blame, I really don't blame me. I just think that maybe it is just a short-term task and will be solved after a while. It's like helping someone pretend for a while.
It’s not too hard to accept. However, what’s the point of knowing it’s not a blessing? Now Yurong and I have developed feelings for each other, and I believe that if nothing else happens, our marriage will continue.”
Li Tang took a few puffs of cigarette silently, and then sighed softly: "You can live well. That's good. Treat Yurong well, he is a good child. Given the situation at that time, you have to accept a comparison in all aspects.
It is very difficult for a girl who is a hundred times stronger than you, not to mention that she has to marry a strange man who is much worse than her in all aspects? And it is related to a woman's integrity and chastity, so her pressure will only be much greater than yours! But!
For the sake of her father, she resolutely agreed. She is a filial child!"
Li Yan was a little sweaty, Dad, even if Yurong is a very good person, you wouldn't bury your son like this, right?
"I will. By the way, Yurong feels guilty because she doesn't have time to see you or contact you. She is also under a lot of pressure when she comes here this time. There is something I want you to tell mom.
Don't put too much pressure on her."
"What?" "Her parents have been urging her to have a baby. I think you are also thinking about this issue. But don't forget that she is now the president of a large company and her career is booming.
It would be somewhat inconvenient for her to suddenly become pregnant and give birth to a child. Let's wait and see in two years!" Li Yan first explained Yu Rong's concerns to his father.
This is indeed Li Tang's heartache. Although he returned to China before Zhang Tianyi, he was in poor health after being seriously injured and took a long time to recover. Then he looked for a job and finally met Wang Suzhen, got married and had children.
It's relatively late. Now that my son is getting older, he finally got married, but he has to wait another two years to consider having children. Isn't it even later?
"Okay! What age are we in now? Everyone gets married relatively late. Yurong has her own career, so you can figure it out!" Li Tang agreed, but he took advantage of his drink, got closer to Li Yan, and lowered his voice.
She said: "Yurong is far better than you. She married you to satisfy Lao Zhang's wish. Now Lao Zhang's health is getting better." Anything can happen! If you have a child, your relationship will be better.
stable!"
Li Yan couldn't laugh or cry, his father actually taught him such a method! This is no longer a matter of cooking the raw rice and making the peanuts appear. On the surface, he obeyed my words. But in his heart, he did not
I don’t intend to accept it. If a man relies on this method to tie a woman, he can tie her for a while, but not for a lifetime!
Besides, using children to seduce women is not only a bit shameless. It is also excessive. Children are innocent. If they really break up and separate, or the relationship is not good together, it will have a great impact on the growth of the child.
Disadvantages.
"You," Li Tang hesitated before speaking.
"What?"
"It's nothing." Li Tang didn't ask after all.
Li Yan guessed that he wanted to ask himself why he suddenly ran away from home to work, and what he had been doing these past years. He had made excuses when he called him before. If asked now, he would still give an excuse, that he couldn't.
Let them know the truth. Since you don't ask, you don't need to answer.
This was one of the reasons why he felt alienated from his parents. He couldn't tell the truth about this issue. If he didn't tell the truth, he would have to lie to his parents, which would of course be difficult.
When the father and son had almost communicated, Wang Suzhen and Zhang Yurong also came out. Everyone was sitting in the living room watching TV and chatting, while Wang Suzhen peeled fruits and other things.
Watching TV programs like this is very boring, and it is also very reserved for two generations to chat together at close range. But because it was their first night back, Li Yan and Yurong could only stay patiently with them.
Li Tang doesn't talk much, but Wang Suzhen talks a lot. Older people always talk more. And she hasn't seen her son for a long time. When they met a year ago, she didn't have much chance to talk, so of course she couldn't bear it.
Can't live.
Because they were usually the only two at home and it was winter, Li Tang and his wife usually went to bed early. Now that their son was back, they happily chatted for a while. But considering their hard work on the road, they didn’t chat until it was too late and let them take a shower.
, each went back to his room to rest.
When Li Yan returned to the bedroom after finally taking a shower, he saw Yu Rong lying down in the bed, her whole body wrapped in the quilt, only her head was exposed. When she saw him come in, she stared at him with a little uneasiness.
"Haha, have you warmed up the bed for me?" Li Yan smiled and sat on the edge of the bed.
It's not that Yurong has no experience sleeping in the same bed with Li Yan, but that is different from the current situation. And this time she has to sleep in the same bed with him for more than ten consecutive days, she vaguely feels that it will definitely make the two of them uncomfortable.
The level of intimacy is getting closer. But if you sleep in the same bed on the first night, the progress will be faster, maybe in two days."
"Isn't there another quilt?" She muttered in a low voice.
Of course, Li Yan saw that there was another quilt, which was the two new quilts he had prepared. But of course he would not miss this rare opportunity to have skin-to-skin contact with Yurong.
"You don't know, the heating may stop in the middle of the night, and it will be too cold if we just cover it with one quilt. So, prepare two quilts, not for us to cover them separately, but to cover them together.
We must put up the quilt and warm the bed while it's still warm."
Li Yan went to bed with a smile, and unceremoniously pulled half of her rolled-up quilt over, and then placed another quilt on top of hers. "This will keep you warm!"
"You haven't been back for more than ten years? How did you know that the heating would stop in the middle of the night?" Of course Yurong would not believe what he said, but she was too inconvenient to snatch the quilt from him, so she could only shrink inside and angrily expose his lie.
.
Li Yan ignored her and continued to pull the quilt up, then moved his own body closer, and said with a half-smile: "The wall is over there. Do you want to sleep on the wall? I just want you to warm the bed, and I don't want to sleep on it."
I'll eat you up!"
Yu Rong secretly spat, who doesn't know your colorful intestines? But she couldn't show that she was afraid of him, lest she be eaten to death by him, she simply turned around to face him: "What do you want? Why do I
Want to warm your bed?"
Li Yan pulled the quilt and covered both of them. He tried to get as close to her as possible. His feet below him had already touched hers. "You don't want to do anything. It doesn't matter if you don't want to warm my bed."
"Really?" Yurong didn't believe he was so easy to talk to.
"If you don't want to warm the bed for me, I don't mind working harder to warm the bed for you!" Li Yan said generously.
Seeing her speechless look, Li Yan chuckled and said in a low voice: "Okay, don't worry, I won't do anything to you. My parents are in the next room, so I'm embarrassed. What should I do?
!”
"It's good to know." Yu Rong murmured in a low voice and thought to herself: We are an old couple who have been married for a year. Even if you want to do something to me, they will just laugh it off when they hear it, right?
However, Li Yan promised that he would not do anything to her, which still made her feel at ease.
"Jiang Rong
"what?"
"Did I turn off the lights?"
"Um."
Yurong agreed. This feeling made her feel very different. When she was at home, she had never rested so early. When she came here, she felt like she was in another world, without the convenience of working at home and using the computer at any time.
, but there is also a kind of relief and ease.
