MTL - Single Mom in the Eighties-Chapter 57 Birthday

Until several people finished eating and sat at the dining table to start eating, Huang Limei and Jiang Yun still looked at Yan Ruxu and laughed from time to time. Yan Ruxu shyly stopped them at first, telling them to restrain themselves, but they refused to listen after he told them twice, Yan Ruxu was also immune, and simply let them laugh.

Kangkang generously shared the lean meat in the lunch box with sister Huanhuan, and said to Huanhuan: "That fat uncle must know my father, he likes me!"

Huanhuan believed it was true, and told Kangkang about his father. Not to be outdone, Kangkang showed off that his father was a hero by diving into the water to save others. Huanhuan thought for a while, his father didn't seem to have saved anyone, he wasn't a hero, and he immediately felt that he had lost, and he was so weak that even the lean meat that Kangkang shared with him didn't taste good.

Adults don't care about small conflicts between children. Huang Limei laughed and teased in a low voice: "I said why you are getting younger and more beautiful. It turns out that your husband and wife are so sweet. It's different when someone nourishes you!"

Yan Ruxu coughed uncomfortably, and said, "What are you talking about, there are still people who are not married!"

Huang Limei looked at Jiang Yun, who was giggling, and said, "What age is it? You are still old feudal. Isn't it just a matter of men and women? I heard that foreign men and women can sleep in the same bed on the same day if they see each other. "

Now Jiang Yun didn't dare to laugh anymore, and buried her head in her meal with embarrassment.

Huang Limei stepped forward, and pointed her finger at Jiang Yun again: "See, husband and wife have to live like our editor-in-chief Yan, my dear, you will have a good life in those days, don't be like me, Touching my husband's hand is like touching my right hand with my left hand, and sometimes I annoy him so much, it's not as comfortable as when we were separated!"

Jiang Yun asked: "Sister Huang, how did you make up your mind to marry your brother-in-law?"

Huang Limei said: "Hey, it's time to get married when I'm old. Someone introduced him to me. When we met, we felt that the conditions were good and the appearance was decent. The two were suitable. Let's get married and live. Who has the editor-in-chief Yan? Good luck, I can meet someone who puts her on the top of my heart."

Huang Limei has never been in contact with Kang again, but saw him from a distance many times to pick up Yan Ruxu. All the signs made her very sure that there was love between Yan Ruxu and her married husband.

Taking advantage of her position, Huang Limei has read several romance novels on the other side, and she is fascinated by them. She doesn't know how much she yearns for the love in them, but she feels disillusioned when she sees the lives of the people around her. Until she saw Yan Ruxu and Kang Congxin, whether it was the external image or the relationship between them, it was like the characters in the book in the real world, which made her very envious.

After decades, she didn't know that there is a word called cp.

After eating, they happened to meet Secretary Gao and Wang Wenqiang at the entrance of the cafeteria.

Wang Wenqiang was the first to pull up the cotton curtain for Secretary Gao, and the two were talking and laughing.

After all, Secretary Gao has experienced wind and rain. After a short period of depression, he regained his energy. Because the sales volume of magazines is rising month by month, the leader of his unit is praised everywhere, which makes him regain his revolutionary enthusiasm when he is about to retire.

He first greeted Yan Ruxu and the others: "Hey, have you all finished your meal?" Then he bent down to greet Kangkang and Huanhuan, "How are you, do you still know me?"

Kangkang nodded. Although he hadn't been to his mother's unit for a long time, he still knew this grandpa, so he shouted, "Hello, Grandpa Gao."

Huanhuan also called Grandpa Gao.

Secretary Gao smiled and said, "Hello, hello, are you full?"

Kang Kang straightened his bulging belly and said, "I'm full."

Wang Wenqiang followed Secretary Gao and looked at Kang Kang with a smile on his face, as if he liked him so much. He looked at Yan Ruxu with friendly eyes, not aggressive at all, as if he had never had any conflicts with Yan Ruxu before.

But on the night of the celebration banquet, Wang Wenqiang's expression and words were remembered by Yan Ruxu. How can they reconcile by expressing goodwill now?

Wang Wenqiang's inherent prejudice against Yan Ruxu has not changed, but he heard that the man Yan Ruxu marries is quite powerful. Before Yan Ruxu had no family background, no background, and was a divorced woman, he still couldn't shake her status. Having found a powerful backer, he had no choice but to curb his apparent hostility. In fact, Wang Wenqiang is even more dissatisfied with Yan Ruxu now.

Supplements are the business of the entire magazine, but the agency has handed over the task of publishing supplements to Yan Ruxu's group. You know, after the supplement is published, it can be a supplement of the magazine, or a separate book from Declassified Film Studio. The distribution department has applied for an ISBN, and it will also be sold on the shelves of major bookstores.

what does that mean? It means that this amount will be added to the resumes of those who participate in the editing. In the future, promotion of professional titles and evaluations will be bonus points.

The topic of cooperation with Red Star Factory allowed Yan Ruxu’s column group to take advantage of all kinds of benefits and steal the show, but refused to share a piece of the pie with others. Wang Wenqiang was very annoyed in his heart, and he also connected with others in private. Talking bad things, slandering Yan Ruxu, even went to the editor-in-chief and Secretary Gao many times, explicitly or implicitly expressing the hope to participate in the editing work of the supplement, but neither the editor-in-chief nor Secretary Gao agreed.

This topic was created by Yan Ruxu's column team. This supplement is easy for him. Now if others insert it, it will be a proper share of the credit. How can Yan Ru be happy?

They offend Yan Ruxu because of Wang Wenqiang, that's impossible.

Wang Wenqiang didn't come up with a reason, but felt that the leaders were afraid of the power of Yan Ruxu's family, and also thought about the insults he had made to Yan Ruxu before, for fear of retaliation, so when he saw Yan Ruxu again, his words and expressions were much more respectful .

Wang Wenqiang praised Kangkang out of words: "Editor Yan, your child looks really good, and he must be a handsome man when he grows up."

Yan Ruxu smiled and didn't say anything. Kangkang blinked his eyes and tilted his head to look at Wang Wenqiang, as if waiting for him to continue boasting.

Wang Wenqiang felt that he understood it, so he said with a smile: "The big eyes, if you look at a smart child, you will be ready to study in the future!"

Kangkang was still looking at him, but Huanhuan's expectant face beside him dimmed, and he lowered his head involuntarily.

Huang Limei's heart was on fire, and her liver felt stuffy and painful.

There are only two children here. If you praise one but not the other, how can the children not feel the obvious difference in treatment? In my heart, I feel angry that Huanhuan has been educated by myself to be too competitive, but she still doesn't know how to control her emotions. Such a trivial matter is only on the face, so useless!

As expected of having done political work for many years, Secretary Gao saw Huanhuan's little emotions, and quickly said, "Huanhuan is also good-looking, and he is also a smart child."

Yan Ruxu also patted Huanhuan's head and said, "Yes, Huanhuan is a little beauty."

Huanhuan immediately raised her head, with a smile on her face.

Kangkang also smiled at Secretary Gao, and the look in his eyes made people see the meaning of "that's right". Secretary Gao couldn't help feeling a little ashamed, and looked at Wang Wenqiang with some dissatisfaction and condemnation.

It's not that Wang Wenqiang doesn't understand these things, on the contrary, no one understands them better than him. Huang Limei is just a new editor, her children are not worth his attention, even he has some intentional elements, Yan Ruxu can't do anything, can't he bully a new editor? Persimmons should be picked softly.

As Wang Wenqiang's leader, Secretary Gao felt ashamed and quickly made self-criticism in his heart, and then said to Yan Ruxu: "My office is not locked, let the two children take a nap on the sofa in my office."

"Okay", Yan Ruxu agreed. Originally, I planned to go to another office to borrow two spare chairs to pair together as a temporary bed for the child, but the sofa was softer and more comfortable, so Yan Ruxu accepted Secretary Gao's kindness.

Huang Limei also quickly thanked her.

Secretary Gao patted the heads of Kangkang and Huanhuan respectively before walking into the cafeteria.

The snow in the yard was swept away, and the snow was piled under the trees. The sun came out, the sky was clear, and the snowdrifts reflected dazzling light. The snow was cleared in time, and after another morning of drying, the ground was dry again, and several children were playing around a big snowdrift.

Kangkang really wanted to play, he took his mother's hand and shook it: "Mom, I want to play."

Yan Ruxu looked at his watch and said, "Then mom will tell you the time, so you can only play for ten minutes, or you won't be able to stand looking at the snow for a long time." Kang Congxin explained to him on the way to send the child in the morning Why can't see the snow for a long time, explained the snow blindness, so Kangkang still understands it very well. He obediently nodded in agreement, and went to hold Huanhuan's hand: "Sister Huanhuan, let's go play together."

The two children went hand in hand.

Huang Limei looked at the backs of the two children running past, and cursed: "Damn it, bullying a child is really not a thing!"

Yan Ruxu heaved a sigh of relief, Wang Wenqiang's move just now seemed childish, but in fact he intended to sow dissension, but if Huang Limei was a little narrow-minded, she wanted to blame Kang Kang and Yan Ruxu, leaving a lump in her heart.

She scolded Wang Wenqiang in front of Yan Ruxu, which meant that Wang Wenqiang's words did not leave a grudge in her heart.

The three stood on the side, looking at the child and chatting.

Jiang Yun was a little absent-minded, and suddenly asked: "You say, why do you want to get married?"

This question is very simple for Yan Ruxu. The first marriage was to give Kangkang a legal identity, and the second marriage was a matter of course. She had the answer in her heart, but she didn't say it out loud.

Huang Limei said: "It's a matter of course for a man to marry and a woman to marry. If you have to say why, it's to be with each other, to have children, and to have children." She suddenly stared at Jiang Yun for a while, and asked: "What's wrong with you, why do you keep asking weird questions? You don't want to marry your partner?"

Jiang Yun sighed, hesitated for a while, and said: "It's not that I don't want to get married, but my heart is very messy. I don't feel comfortable thinking about marrying someone. I don't think I can bear sharing the same bed with others, and I don't want to. Cook and do laundry for people."

Huang Limei was taken aback for a moment, not knowing what to say.

Yan Ruxu said: "You probably have been single for too long, you have been living alone, relying on yourself for everything, so you are living alone, just like when you first went to the countryside, it took a long time to adapt to the life there. Similarly, now it will take a period of adaptation and running-in to get used to the lives of two people."

Yan Ruxu's "dream" never lived to Jiang Yun's current age in her "dream". Because she had someone she liked in her heart, she never felt that she was single. In that dream, no parents appeared, and no one urged her on marriage matters. , Colleagues occasionally joked, but she never took it to heart. She can't understand Jiang Yun's mentality, but there are more and more older single unmarried women in later generations. Some want to be single subjectively, and some are forced to be single; Trying to get married...

With Yan Xu's understanding of Jiang Yun, she can be regarded as the latter. She was still young when she went to the countryside. After she went to the countryside, she thought about how to return to the city all day long. She had no intention of finding a partner in the countryside. Later, she never found a suitable one. She looked down on her, and her yearning and enthusiasm for love and marriage have been worn down by the years.

In an open-minded and inclusive later age, there are so many single and unmarried women, and they are not widely understood and tolerated by the society, let alone the present?

The older you are, the greater the pressure of public opinion from society, relatives and friends, which is not something ordinary people can bear. Jiang Yun is a good girl, and Yan Ruxu hopes that she will be happy.

Hearing what Yan Ruxu said, Jiang Yun nodded, thinking it made sense.

Huang Limei said: "Did my words scare you during the meal? Don't listen to my nonsense, don't look at me saying that it's better to go to another place, it's all hypocritical. If I had to choose again, I would definitely still like us I like my father to get married. How wonderful it is to be married. There is someone who knows what is cold and what is hot. Let alone other things. When you are sick and lying in bed, there is someone who can pour you a cup of hot water and cook you a bowl of noodles. I can even carry you to the hospital when your high fever persists. What kind of love, love, it’s all fake, and it’s real to take care of each other in a normal way.”

Yan Ruxu also echoed, using her own experience to explain the earth-shaking changes in life after marriage, and tried her best to prove to Jiang Yun that marriage is beautiful and worthwhile.

Jiang Yun lowered her head and kicked the cracks in the bricks with her toes. She listened to what Yan Ruxu and Huang Limei said, and thought it made sense, but when she thought of that man, the confidence she had built up flinched again.

Yan Ruxu said: "Of course, people can't get married just for the sake of getting married. If you are hesitant, you can not rush to get married for the time being, and then develop a relationship." With Jiang Yun's resistance, she worried that Jiang Yun would marry under pressure. Not having a good time.

On this point, Huang Limei's concept is different from Yan Ruxu's. What kind of relationship should be cultivated? The couple will naturally have feelings when they live together, so there is no need to cultivate them. However, she only thought about it in her heart and didn't say it.

Jiang Yun's eyes lit up suddenly when he heard Yan Ruxu's words.

Yan Ruxu felt a little regretful. In this era, many people get married for the sake of getting married. In fact, life after marriage may not be unhappy. She should not instill the ideas of future generations into the 1980s. Moreover, this person was introduced by Sister Xu, and she must have considered the two people's personalities and conditions before introducing them. Yan Ruxu felt that this person should be reliable.

She thought for a while, and then said: "You try to open your heart, don't be so defensive, get in touch with them more, discover their strengths, find common interests and hobbies between you two, don't look at others' shortcomings Zoom in and hold on to it. No one is perfect. It depends on whether his flaws are principled or innocuous. For example, if this person drinks, whoring, gambling, or has violent tendencies, this is principled and absolutely intolerable. Paying too much attention to hygiene is considered an accidental injury, and it can be improved."

Jiang Yun was thoughtful, she raised her head after waiting for a while, looked at Yan Ruxu and then at Yan Ruxu, and said, "Thank you, what you said is very important to me, I have to think about it."

Huang Limei said with a smile: "As the saying goes, Zhuge Liang is the best of three cobblers. Editor Yan and I are both experienced, and our experience is always richer than yours. If you are in doubt, just say it, and we will help you out. , even if this idea is not to your liking, it can still let you confide in it, which is better than holding back your own boredom."

Yan Ruxu also nodded.

Jiang Yun was a little touched, because she had never been married, and she had less and less contact with her comrades and college classmates when she jumped in the queue, and gradually drifted away. Now the closest ones are her colleagues. She is very happy that someone is willing to help her with ideas , Listen to what she says in her heart.

"thank you all!"

"Thank you, thank you, I hope you find Mr. Ruyi soon, so that we can have wedding candy soon!"

Kangkang and Huanhuan imitated those children and made a snowman on the snowdrift. Kangkang imitated an older child, gathered two **** of snow, made a little snowman, and picked up branches for the little snowman to make. Nose, eyes. Huanhuan felt too cold after touching the snow, and was afraid that the snow would wet his sleeves, so he watched Kangkang make a snowman and gave him advice. The two had a great time.

Yan Ruxu looked at the time and reminded: "Ten minutes are up."

Kangkang said "Oh", and invited his mother and aunts to look at their works. They all praised the pile of works well, so he pouted slightly and said, "It's a pity that Dad can't see it."

Yan Ruxu said: "When we go home, you can make another one for Dad, and put this one here, so that the uncles and aunts who pass by can watch it."

Kangkang: "That's good." He looked at the snowman in his group again, and the expression on his face made people see the meaning of 'Oh, those uncles and aunts are so lucky to see such a good thing'.

At around 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Kang Congxin came to pick up Yan Ruxu's mother and son, but he didn't come in, so he asked the guard to call Yan Ruxu's office at the door.

The doorman saw him often and was already familiar with him. At the beginning, I still had the aura of him, but later I saw that he was not put on airs, and he greeted them when he came and went, so I gradually started to chat with him, and we became more and more familiar with him.

Kang Congxin waited for Yan Ruxu at the door, the guard gave Kang Congxin cigarettes, but Kang Congxin refused to smoke, but the guard actually knew that Kang Congxin didn't smoke, but he just gave up out of habit. Sometimes Kang Congxin would bring him a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes, and the guard was very happy, so he told Kang Congxin a lot about Yan Ruxuan's work at work, of course, he said good things.

After waiting at the door for about twenty minutes, Yan Ruxu brought Kangkang out.

Kangkang was about to jump on his father with his short legs, Yan Ruxu hurriedly shouted: "Look at his shoes, the soles are full of mud."

Kang Congxin let Kangkang sit in his arms, took off the child's shoes, and wrapped Kangkang in his coat.

After a day in the sun, the snow began to melt and flowed from under the snowdrifts to the road surface. Kangkang stepped on the muddy water, so that the soles and uppers of his shoes were soaked in muddy water.

Yan Ruxu complained to Kang Zaixin: "When he came down from the stairs, he started having fun and stepped on the muddy puddles. If you touch his socks, are they wet too?" Although she complained in her tone, she didn't stop the child. Just follow the child and watch him not to fall. Children stepping on puddles and mud pits are also exploring new things, which helps children understand and recognize the world, and is also good for children's intellectual development.

Kang Congxin really didn't pay attention, and quickly reached into his coat to touch Kangkang's two little feet. Kangkang laughed and rubbed his two little feet to avoid it.

Kang Congxin reported to Yan Ruxu: "The socks are not wet, but there are some mud spots on the trousers." He rubbed the mud spots on Kangkang's trousers with his hands, then wrapped Kangkang tightly in his coat, and put his little feet Ya stuck to his chest. After Yan Ruxu knocked the mud off Kangkang's little dirty shoes, wrapped them up and put them in the bag, he also took the bag and carried it by himself.

Today, because I was eating in the cafeteria and I was taking Kangkang with me, I put a lot of things in my bag, such as lunch boxes, Kangkang's paintbrushes, toys, etc., which were more or less heavy.

"I'm holding it!" Yan Ruxu didn't guard against being snatched away by him, so he blamed him and wanted to **** it away. Kang dodged with his new arm, and changed the bag to the arm holding Kangkang, freeing this arm Bend towards her.

Due to the weather, although it was not the rush hour for getting off work, there were already many pedestrians on the road, but they all concentrated on looking at the bottom of their feet. Yan Ruxu looked around, and no one was distracted to notice them, so he stretched out his arms and walked in. In that bent arm.

When the last trace of ice and snow under the tree roots melted and seeped into the soil, the time also entered the end of 1985. On December 28, Kangkang's 4th birthday.

It was a Saturday night, and Kang and Yan's families gathered in the small building on the second floor of the military compound to celebrate Kang Kang's birthday together.

Only Yan Liangshen and Yan Ruyu came to the Yan family.

The Kang family invited the Yan family and did not specify who would or would not be allowed to go. Yan Liangshen didn't want Wang Zhaodi to go, he felt that Wang Zhaodi's going would only embarrass Yan Ruxu, but after all, she was his wife and the mother of his youngest daughter in name. Yan Ruyu was somewhat conflicted, she hoped that Wang Zhaodi would go to show her identity as the hostess of the Yan family, but she was also afraid that Wang Zhaodi's words and actions would be inappropriate, which would only increase the embarrassment.

While hesitating, Wang Zhaodi received a call from her hometown, and she didn't know what was said in the phone. She hurriedly said that she had something urgent to go back to her hometown, and she refused to tell her husband and daughter what happened. Let Sister Huang ask her to buy a train ticket for her.

After she came back from her hometown with Yan Liangshen, she had never been back for more than ten years. If Sister Huang wanted to go with her, she had to firmly refuse.

For so many years, Wang Zhaodi has never been out of Beijing, and she is usually accompanied by people when she goes out. This is the first time she has traveled far by herself, but she insists on going back by herself. Yan Ruyu persuaded and persuaded, but she refused to listen. Yan Liangshen and his daughter There is no way for two.

Yan Liangshen didn't know what she was going to do, so he had to ask her to bring enough money, a letter of introduction, and let him remember his home and office phone numbers, and help her plan the round-trip route, and then find someone to pick up the station along the route, and give him She wrote down a few names and told her who to turn to in case something couldn't be solved.

This arrangement can be regarded as quite meticulous and thoughtful, even Wang Zhaodi, who can't speak beautiful words, praised Yan Liangshen to his daughter, saying that he is really a good person.

Yan Liangshen also stayed in that small mountain village for several years. According to his understanding, Wang Zhaodi no longer has any immediate family members in his hometown, and he doesn't have much contact with other relatives. Occasional correspondence, mailing some things back, not too frequent. He felt very strange in his heart, but Wang Zhaodi didn't want to say it, so he didn't beg for nothing.

However, when Wang Zhaodi returned to her hometown, she solved the entangled problems of the Yan family's father and daughter. The father and daughter came to Kang Kang's birthday banquet and carefully selected gifts for the little nephew.

The venue of the birthday party was set at Kang's family. The participants were the Kang and Yan families, and the only outsider was Xi Yuanzheng.

According to Bai Fengmei's intention, it was a big deal.

Her third son came back from the dead and returned to his hometown with meritorious deeds. He didn’t make a big deal when he got married. He just got married in a low-key manner and distributed wedding candies. Now he missed the grandson’s full moon banquet and first birthday ceremony, and caught up with the child’s fourth birthday. , she set up a big banquet again, entertained guests, and introduced her little grandson's thoughts to the world.

However, she was just thinking about it, and Kang Qiangjun dispelled her thoughts with one word.

Kang Qiangjun said: "In the eyes of outsiders, Kangkang is not the grandson of our family after all. If we really want to celebrate Kangkang, I don't know how many rumors will be caused. It will not be a good thing for the third child, Xiaoyan and Kangkang." .”

Bai Fengmei is not an ignorant person, on the contrary, she understands these things very well. But intellect is one thing and emotion is another. She was just too aggrieved, aggrieved herself, and also aggrieved for the third son's family. This day's night walk in Jinyi is really depressing.

In the end, it was just a family dinner at the parents' house, and he didn't even go to the restaurant. This was Kangkang's own opinion. He said that the food at his grandparents' house was better than that at the restaurant.

Bai Fengmei was overjoyed when she heard her grandson's words. All the previous depression disappeared, and she began to search for rare ingredients all over the world, trying to give Kangkang, a snack foodie, an unforgettable fourth birthday.

Bai Fengmei's goal was achieved, and Kangkang almost went crazy with joy when he saw the double cream cake.

The cake was custom-made by Xi Yuanzheng, the most famous western restaurant in Beijing——the western pastry chef of Monica Restaurant. The freshest cream was used, and a car was sent to **** it. Layer by layer, it was placed on stainless steel. On the disc, patterns of small animals, small flowers and grass are drawn with cream, and the top layer reads Happy Fourth Birthday of Kangkang.

Xi Yuanzheng's unit has business dealings with Monica Western Restaurant, and they took his order because of the face of Xi Yuanzheng. It was a waste of time and effort to accept the order for only a fee, but even so, Xi Yuanzheng also made a A lot of money, and the favor of the boss, but seeing Kangkang being so pleasantly surprised, he felt it was worth it. At the same time, he also felt that he was too smart and good at giving gifts, so he immediately sent them to his heart.

This gift completely changed Xi Yuanzheng's image in Kangkang's mind. From a silly and weird uncle to a good uncle, he called him "Uncle Yuanzheng" with arched hands and a flattering face, and Xi Yuanzheng sat down proudly. Shaking legs on the sofa.

Yan Ruxu smiled and complained to Kang again: "Your son's will is too unstable, he was bought by a big cream cake, he was quarreling with others a while ago, and now he is pouring water for others, It’s for the fruit again, how considerate!”

Kang Congxin smiled: "It's not that the son is not determined, but that the enemy is too cunning."

In terms of gift value, the gifts from Bai Fengmei and Yan Liangshen are more expensive than this big cake, but Kangkang is a big foodie. He has eaten cream cakes, but he has never seen such a big one or double-layered ones. As for the cake, can you not be happy?

Kangkang, Kang Chenxi, Kang Xuyang, including Yan Ruyu, who was a few years older than them, all looked and looked around the double-layered cake, discussing while watching, talking childishly, their little noses kept sniffing and sniffing, light Smelling the sweetness of the cream cake made them fascinated, and their little faces were almost stuck on the cake.

Xiao Hongying warned them: "We're going to take pictures with the cake later, you can't steal it, it won't look good if a piece is missing!"

The children agreed in unison.

Kangkang went around behind the cake, swallowed spitting foam, secretly put out his finger, dipped a little cream on the edge of the cake and put it into his mouth, immediately his eyebrows and eyes lit up, it was fragrant and sweet, it was so delicious.

Kang Xuyang next to him voluntarily helped his younger brother stand guard, licking his lips and asked Kang Kang: "Is it delicious?"

Kangkang nodded hurriedly: "Super delicious!"

Kang Xuyang couldn't bear it anymore, and stretched out his fingers to dip the cream. He used too much effort, and a big piece came out. Kang Xuyang took a sip of his saliva, and couldn't wait to widen his mouth, and put the cream on his fingers into his mouth.

The cream melted in the mouth and was so sweet that Kang Xuyang couldn't help but close his eyes and be intoxicated.

"Kang Xuyang!"

Xiao Hongying's angry roar came.

"Mom, I didn't steal it!" Kang Xuyang replied subconsciously, the sweet smell of butter still remained in his mouth, and the breath he exhaled was sweet.

Xiao Hongying was angry and funny, she walked over and pointed to the missing finger print, and then pointed to the cream stain on the corner of his mouth, "You don't eat it?"

Kang Xuyang argued: "My younger brother stole it first before I ate it."

Kang Kang immediately took a step back, getting a little further away from the cake, and used his actions to show that he hadn't eaten it secretly, and what Kang Xuyang said was wrong.

Amid laughter and blessings from relatives, Kangkang celebrated his 4th birthday.

Immediately after my birthday, New Year's Day in 1986 ushered in. At the beginning of the new year, the rebuilding of the Beijing Concert Hall was completed, and the Central Music Troupe had its premiere performance here. They sent tickets to many enterprises and institutions in the city. Yan Ruxu got one, and Kang Congxin also got a ticket. The two of them performed on the day of the premiere. Take Kangkang to the show.

Inspired by Huang Limei last time, Yan Ruxu and Kang re-discussed whether the child should stand on the starting line in advance after returning home, and they came to the same conclusion: we should start guiding Kangkang to study, but we can’t force him to Children, you have to see what aspects your child is interested in, and then focus on training the subjects you are interested in.

Just right, it started with this concert.

The Beijing Concert Hall was rebuilt on the original site of the Central Cinema. The Central Cinema is an old building from the Republic of China period, with a strong Western architectural style. After being transformed into a concert hall, the theme building, including its appearance, has not changed much. It can be reused only by repainting, repairing, and replacing glass.

The Beijing Concert Hall is not far from Yan Ruxu's small courtyard, and it only takes about a quarter of an hour to walk through the alleys. After the meal, the family of three walked to the concert hall without driving.

The days in winter are short, and it is already dark at 6 o'clock in the evening. The street lamps on the street have been replaced again, which illuminate the night very brightly. tape, clothes. On the small square by the side of the road, an open-air dance was held. Some young men and women took off their bloated cotton monkeys and coats without fear of the cold, and only wore sweaters and jeans, dancing ballroom dancing generously or coyly. On the tree next to it, there are small colorful lights hanging, twinkling, together with the sound of music played by the dual-card recorder, attracting passers-by to stop and watch and then join in.

…

These seemed to spring up like mushrooms after a spring rain, popping up all of a sudden, making this dark city start to make noise again.

The family of three walked slowly, slowly looking at the western scenery on the side of the road.

Big hands hold small hands, Kangkang holds his parents' hands and lifts them up and down. When he gets tired, he wants to "sit in a sedan chair" again, that is, his parents clasp their hands. He walked tremblingly, like an old man, and after sitting for a while, he wanted to "ride his neck" and let his father walk on him.

Yan Ruxu patted his son's calf vigorously: "Why do you get smaller and smaller as you live, you are already four years old, and you are becoming more and more like a baby."

Kangkang grinned, put his hands on his father's ears, turned his head and said to Yan Ruxu, "Dad's ears are so cold, I'll cover them."

Yan Ruxu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, Kang Cong laughed again: "Good son!"

Yan Ruxu slapped Kang on the back lightly: "Just let him go!"

When the family of three walked to the entrance of the concert hall, ticket checking had already begun.

The surrounding lights are brilliant, illuminating the surroundings of the concert hall like daytime. People were neatly dressed and lined up neatly. They were very well-behaved. No one jumped in line and no one spoke.

The symphony is very unfamiliar to most Chinese people, but it does not affect everyone to watch the fun, because it is a foreign thing. After the opening, everyone is full of curiosity about the outside world, and many people want to go out and have a look, but going abroad is not something ordinary people can do, so everyone enjoys watching foreign things.

Kang pushed Yan Ruxu in front of him again, hugged Kangkang in his arms, and lined up at the end of the line. There were about 20 or 30 people in the queue at the front, and the speed of ticket checking was a little slow for some reason. It took a long time for the line to move forward a little.

Kangkang was in his father's arms, taller than everyone else, and everyone in the queue could see him. He turned around and looked at the black heads, thinking it was very funny. The small body was like a small fish, squirming flexibly in Kang Congxin's arms, looking at the front for a while, and looking behind for a while. Before and after, there were children who were about the same age as Kangkang and were held in the arms of their parents. Kangkang smiled at them and wanted to talk to them, but unfortunately they were a little far away, and it seemed impolite to talk through other people's heads.

"What are you looking at?" Kangkang twisted back and forth, his calf was about to touch Yan Ruxu's back from time to time. Yan Ruxu turned around and grabbed his son's calf and asked.

"Mom, there are so many children."

Yan Ruxu nodded, suddenly thought of something, and said to Kang Congxin: "The sound of the symphony is relatively loud, and it may not be good for children's eardrums."

Kang Congxin had never heard a symphony before, and he didn't know how loud it was, so he said, "If it's too harsh, we'll come out."

This was originally a conversation between husband and wife, the voice was not too loud, and it had nothing to do with others, but someone "cut", turned around and glanced at the three of them with disdain, seeing that the three of them were well dressed, and their appearance and temperament were not like ordinary people, In the end, he held back the words he was about to say, and only muttered vaguely, "bump."

Yan Ruxu didn't have the habit of scolding, and he didn't like to talk to these strange people, but Kang Congxin took a few glances at that person.

The man scratched the back of his head and his back, feeling a thorn in his back, turned around and found nothing unusual, but he couldn't help paying more attention to the family of three behind him.
