Rebirth of the Routine King
Chapter 678 Li Tong's Sorrow
When Wang Yan returned with the gift box, Bao Feifei was squatting at the door of the store smoking, and the store's rolling shutter door was also pulled down.
"Feifei, why is it closed?"
Bao Feifei quickly stood up and said with a smile: "My wife heard that you were going to visit home and ran to the mall to buy groceries. She insisted on letting you have dinner at home."
Wang Yan said helplessly: "I'm just going to see your mother. What else are you having for dinner? I'm going to the mall tonight!"
Bao Feifei said hurriedly: "You can't refuse! My mother heard that you are coming and is cooking now! If you don't eat this meal, she will definitely be angry with me!"
Seeing this, Wang Yan didn't refuse. It was just a meal, and it wasn't like they had never eaten together before. He immediately said: "Okay, okay, I'll go back later."
"Hey, what did you buy?"
Wang Yan smiled and said: "A meeting gift for the children."
Bao Feifei declined without losing the compliment: "You have given me a huge favor by being able to come home for dinner, so why should you buy me a gift?"
Wang Yan said angrily: "I haven't seen you for several years, how did you learn to be hypocritical? I didn't buy it for you, so why are you so worried?"
.....
The first time he saw Liu Tong, Wang Yan was stunned!
In my impression, Liu Tong was radiant, confident and generous, exuding the charm of a mature woman, but now...
The skin is saggy and brown, and the hair not only loses its luster, but also has faint signs of whitening at the roots.
His eyes were also slightly evasive, looking very unconfident.
"Mom, do you still remember Wang Yan?" Bao Feifei said with a smile.
Liu Tong smoothed his hair, as if to divert his embarrassment, squeezed out a smile and said, "How can I not recognize him? He is much more handsome than before."
Wang Yan laughed: "Auntie is very discerning, and she can immediately see the changes in me in the past few years."
Bao Feifei joked: "One thing has changed. I am much thicker-skinned than before."
While a few people were talking and laughing, a complaining voice came from the direction of the kitchen: "Mom! What are you doing? The child is crying, why don't you go and see it quickly!"
"Coming, coming!"
Liu Tong responded quickly, then left Wang Yan and Bao Feifei behind and hurriedly ran towards a room.
Bao Feifei must have been used to this scene, so she greeted Wang Yan and walked into the house.
"Feifei, Wang Yan is here!"
The next second, a young woman wearing an apron appeared at the door of the kitchen, her face full of smiles looking very friendly.
When he first saw Bao Feifei's wife, Wang Yan always felt that she looked very similar to one of Dou Liang's girlfriends...
"Dr. Wang, you are here! Sit on the sofa for a while... Feifei, pour some tea for Mr. Wang!"
It is hard to imagine that such a gentle tone and the strong complaint just now came from the same owner.
Wang Yan didn't speak, just nodded with a smile, and then slowly sat on the sofa.
"Wang Yan, please sit down first and I'll make you some tea! Last year, I dropped off a pack of Dahongpao at my second uncle's house, and I couldn't bear to drink it..."
With that said, Bao Feifei walked quickly to a room.
After a while, Wang Yan heard Bao Feifei's voice: "Mom! Where is the bag of tea leaves on my desk?"
"Can you please stop packing up my things! Look for them quickly! I'm still waiting to make tea for Wang Yan!"
"I don't know what you are busy with all day! You don't even remember where you put your things?"
...
While Bao Feifei was hurriedly making tea, Liu Tong walked into the kitchen holding a baby.
Then, I faintly heard the young woman complaining again:
"The child has stopped crying. Why don't you put him on the bed? You can help me chop the vegetables! When can I finish the work by myself?"
"Why is the child crying again? Why can't you even look at the child well?"
"It's all your son's fault! You have to let me buy groceries and cook them at home. Why don't you go to the restaurant to pack them..."
...
Wang Yan looked at the family photo on the wall that lacked another male owner, and was speechless for a moment.
At this time, Bao Feifei came over carrying a pot of tea.
First, he poured a glass for Wang Yan and said with a smile: "Wang Yan, try it. My second uncle said it cost several thousand yuan per tael! Please taste it, is it fake?"
Wang Yan picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said calmly: "It's a little bitter, a little astringent, it's true."
Bao Feifei also took a sip and frowned: "Is it bitter? I think the taste is quite light, and there is a faint scent of tulip."
Wang Yan changed the subject: "Feifei, don't cook so many dishes. It's just the four of us, just two dishes."
"No, just a few home-cooked dishes. Feifei was complaining about me just now! She said you finally came here, why don't you go to a restaurant..."
Bao Feifei rambled on, and Wang Yan listened indifferently. He looked towards the kitchen from time to time, and then caught a glimpse of Liu Tong holding the child in one hand, while he kept hitting.
I took another look at Bao Feifei, who was sitting on the sofa, drinking tea and chatting leisurely...
"Let me see what auntie is cooking."
With that said, Wang Yan stood up and walked to the kitchen.
After seeing Wang Yan, Feifei said with a smile: "Dr. Wang, there is a lot of fumes in the kitchen. You'd better sit on the sofa and rest! There are only two more dishes left."
Liu Tong also advised: "Wang...Wang Yan, go back and chat with Feifei for a while, and we'll get it done right away."
Wang Yan ignored it, teased the child in Liu Tong's arms, and said with a smile: "Little guy, how old are you this year?"
Liu Tong smiled and replied: "Five months."
"What's your name?"
"My nickname is Manman, my big name hasn't been decided yet!"
Wang Yan was surprised and said: "You are almost half a year old, why haven't you chosen a name yet?"
Bao Feifei came over and said with a smile: "Originally, I had a name called Bao Liang, but Feifei didn't agree with it because it was too tacky. She also had a few names of her own, but she was never satisfied, so she put it off. It's okay, not yet.
How about registering for residence..."
As he said that, Bao Feifei's eyes lit up and he hurriedly said: "Wang Yan, you are also a college student after all. How about you name your child?"
Upon hearing this, Feifei quickly agreed, and while cooking the dishes, she smiled and said: "Dr. Wang, please don't refuse! It is a child's blessing to be named by you!"
If outsiders saw this scene, they would definitely be extremely surprised.
The couple actually handed over the naming rights of their child to an outsider!
His tone was still so humble, as if it was a supreme honor to be named by this young man!
Wang Yan said helplessly: "Is it appropriate for you to name your child after me?"
"It's appropriate, it's appropriate, why isn't it appropriate?"
Liu Tong also smiled and said: "Why don't you hire one, Wang Yan? As for whether to recruit or not, the choice is left to us."
Wang Yan chuckled: "Okay! Auntie has already said it, so I will rack my brains to think of one..."
But I saw that his head was slightly raised and his eyes kept moving, as if he was thinking seriously.
After a while, Wang Yan said: "Su Shi once said this, I hope my son will be foolish and careless, and he will be able to serve as a minister without any trouble. So be it, or call him Bao Xiaoshun!"
Bao Feifei was suddenly startled.
He didn't understand that the name Bao Xiaoshun was closely related to Su Shi's poem.
Then he said sarcastically: "Wang Yan, isn't this name too casual? How can anyone directly call me filial piety..."
Wang Yan shrugged: "I said I didn't have the talent for naming, but you just let me pick it! I can't help it, that's all I have."
After hearing this, Feifei turned around silently and went back to cooking.
Li Tong looked at Wang Yan in a daze, with an unexplainable feeling in his eyes.
.......
During the meal, the family was very enthusiastic and kept saying things like "eat more" and "try this dish" which were similar to compliments.
Wang Yan was also very considerate. He ate every dish and praised how delicious it was while eating!
This made Feifei very happy. If Wang Yan hadn't returned to the mall for the party, he would have had two glasses of wine!
Halfway through the meal, Feifei said to Li Tong: "Mom, go to the kitchen and bring the soup. It has been cooking for so long. It should be ready."
Li Tong responded, slowly got up and went to the kitchen.
Looking at Li Tong's slightly stooped back, Wang Yan said casually: "Feifei, what has your mother been doing in the past few years? She looks much more haggard than before."
Bao Feifei sighed and said: "In the past few years, I have been helping to take care of the store and managing my marriage with Feifei. Now I am dedicated to taking care of the children at home. I am already in my early forties, how can I still act like a little girl...
..”
Wang Yan smiled half-heartedly and said: "She is your mother, not your personal housekeeper. Forty years old is still very young! I think if possible, you can try to get her to find another marriage, a woman! She always needs a man.
Protective."
Feifei snorted: "If she finds another one, what will happen to the child? I have to guard the store every day, so how can I have time to look after the child? Besides, I am so old, what else are I looking for!"
Bao Feifei glared at his wife, as if to tell her to pay attention to her words.
Feifei seemed to feel that it was not good to say this in front of Wang Yan, so she immediately stopped talking.
At this moment, I heard a crisp sound of 'pop'!
First the sound of a crock pot breaking was heard in the kitchen, and then there was the sound of Li Tong's panic.
After hearing this, the three people hurriedly walked towards the kitchen, and then saw a broken ceramic pot and thick soup flowing all over the floor.
Li Tong seemed to blame himself: "I didn't expect the jar to be so hot... I accidentally..."
Feifei's eyebrows immediately stood up: "What do you want me to say about you? Aren't you a little more careful? Use a towel when you serve it!"
Bao Feifei also looked a little unhappy: "I originally wanted Wang Yan to try it! Now it's better..."
Seeing Li Tong who felt guilty, embarrassed, and even a little angry but dared not speak, Wang Yan felt very complicated.
He could think of the reason why Li Tong was so haggard.
The failure of her marriage was the beginning of a downward spiral in her life. In the following years, she was busy with business and then took care of her son's marriage, which gave her almost no time to relax.
Now she is acting as a wet nurse to take care of her grandson...
Forget about the hardships of life, I was unlucky enough to marry a sharp-tongued daughter-in-law. The key thing is that my son still stood by his daughter-in-law...
For the sake of this young couple, Li Tong should have been patient and would rather suffer a little more injustice than let the family have conflicts.
But who can think of her?
Four years ago, she was also an exquisite woman!
At the college entrance examination, among thousands of parents, she was so eye-catching!
To this day, Wang Yan still clearly remembers what she wore that day, a beige spotted dress with a pair of small heels, looking confident, generous and beautiful!
But what made her become like this?
Is it poverty?
Maybe it is, maybe it's not.
To put it most accurately, it is the change in her own mentality that she is willing to accelerate herself to become a housewife in order to take care of the emotions of her son and daughter-in-law.
...
Wang Yan sighed secretly, stepped forward and asked, "Auntie, did I burn you?"
After hearing Wang Yan's words, Li Tong's mood changed instantly!
Seeing her eyes sparkling instantly, she waved her hands and said, "It's okay, it's okay..."
When the accident happened, her only two relatives only criticized and complained. Only an outsider, Wang Yan, cared about whether she was injured...
How could you keep her emotions from rising and falling?
At this moment, Wang Yan's cell phone rang.
It turned out that it was Song Zhiwen who asked him when he would return to the mall.
Taking advantage of this phone call, Wang Yan didn't give Bao Feifei a chance to stay, and just opened the door and left.
