Chapter 1323 Compared with Myself Yesterday

"you are lying."

The dumplings are directly removed from the dumpling table.

"Fourth brother, I didn't lie, please don't accuse me wrongly!"

Tangyuan defended himself.

"You're not smiling on your face, but your eyes are smiling. I can see it clearly."

After hearing what Tuanzi said, Tangyuan's face immediately fell: "Fourth brother, are we two plastic brothers?"

Hearing this, Tuanzi's delicate and fair face had a cool expression: "That's what you say."

On the side, Minghan couldn't help but burst into laughter. He said, "Tangyuan, are you deflated?! Haha!"

Jiang Li, Ming Wei and Xiao Guoguo also laughed out loud. As for Mingrui, although he didn't laugh, the curve of the corners of his lips should not be too obvious.

"You are all laughing at me, are you sure you are not bullying me?"

Seeing everyone in the family laughing and laughing, Tangyuan felt particularly embarrassed. He pretended to be aggrieved and said, "Still laughing? You will lose me if you do this!"

"and me!"

Tuanzi glanced at Tangyuan, his expression as calm as ever.

"Fourth brother! Don't think that just because you look the same as me, you can replace my little dumpling in the family! Humph!

"Tang Yuan said, folding his arms, snorting arrogantly, and didn't turn his head to look at the dumpling.

"I'm older than you, but you and I look the same."

Tuanzi's little breasts didn't rise and fall at all, but they sounded as cute as ever.

"wrong!"

Tang Yuan hummed again, and said in a milky voice: "Everyone says that you and I are smaller versions of dad, which means you and I look the same. Don't take advantage of me."

Tuanzi: "I am your brother." The implication is that there is nothing wrong with the younger brother being like the elder brother.

Tangyuan choked and remained silent for a long time.

Seeing his frustrated look, Jiang Li and others laughed out loud again.

…

In a blink of an eye, the day came to receive the notice, and without any surprise, Mingrui once again won the first place in his grade, while Minghan also retained his first place in the grade.

"I'm still third."

Sitting in the car going home, Mingwei glanced at the co-pilot. Seeing that Mingrui didn't turn around, she couldn't help but glare at Minghan: "You don't know if you want me to order?"

Minghan sat next to Mingwei, and the two of them sat in the back seat together. When he heard what Mingwei said, he raised his eyebrows: "How to give in? Could it be that you want me to do the wrong question on purpose, or maybe I know how to do it? But pretending not to know?"

"..."

Mingwei was stunned, not knowing how to answer the question.

"The exam tests your strength. If you answer the wrong question, you will lose points. This means that you have not fully understood the knowledge points contained in that question. It is your own problem. What does it have to do with me?"

Eyes falling on Ming Wei, Minghan said: "If I do as I said before, it will be equivalent to helping you cheat in disguise. Is this what you want?"

"Are you serious with me?"

Mingwei narrowed her eyes, seeing this, Minghan coughed twice, with a natural look on her face: "Do I have it?"

"You know whether you know it or not."

Ming Wei said, casually pinching Minghan's arm next to her, and then said: "I was just joking with you, but you misunderstood me. Second brother, you are worthy of your sister." ?"

"Ouch! It hurts!"

Minghan bared his teeth and rubbed the painful area where Mingwei pinched him. He said, "You're so cruel!"

"If you respond faster, I might believe you."

She was pretending to be like that. There was no reaction at the moment she pinched her. After she had withdrawn her hand, she pretended to rub the area where she pinched her and cried out in pain. Should she say something: The reflex arc is really amazing. Long enough!

The bodyguard was driving the car. He was originally a very serious person, but because he heard Minghan Mingwei's conversation, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, not to mention Ming Rui's mood now.

Well, he was so stupid by Minghan, no, he didn't look back, but said: "Luo Minghan, you are so childish!"

Mingwei chuckled softly: "Second brother, did you hear that? Eldest brother said you were childish!"

"Isn't it all your fault?!"

Looking at Mingwei, Minghan said: "Just be childish. This way I will be loved more by my mother."

Being childish doesn't mean he hasn't grown up, so what does it matter if he acts cute and coquettish in front of his mother from time to time?

"I won't take the blame."

Ming Wei moved her body, distanced herself from Minghan, and deliberately said with disgust: "I am childish but I don't know it. Second brother, are you afraid that there is something wrong with your brain?"

"Are you saying I'm mentally ill?"

This time it was Minghan's turn to narrow his eyes. He looked at Mingwei with a dangerous look.

"Second brother, your ability to understand is really poor! There are clearly three words in my sentence, 'I'm afraid', but there's no need for an affirmative sentence!"

Mingwei's eyes were strange and she felt extremely happy. She gave a serious suggestion: "Since second brother, you think you have a brain disease, you can ask your mother to take you to the hospital for a checkup later. Don't delay any longer. You will be sent to hospital one day." The three hospitals are locked up.”

Minghan grinded his teeth: "Luo Mingwei, do you think I'm a lunatic? Or do you want to send me to the Third Hospital as a lunatic one day?"

"ah!"

Ming Wei showed an expression of wonder: "You have such a rich imagination! You've even linked yourself to mental illness, haha!"

"Luo Mingwei, my mother also said that I have a poisonous mouth. In my opinion, your mouth is much more poisonous than mine. Looking back, I will see who dares to marry you."

Regarding Minghan's words, Mingwei's reaction was calm and gentle: "Why should I want a man to marry me? Can't I marry the man back home? Or, wouldn't it be nice for me to be alone?"

The two brothers and sisters had a lot of fun fighting each other, and they couldn't tell the winner until they entered the house.

"Mother!"

"Um?"

"Your precious eldest daughter came in third place again. I'm so sad!"

"It's okay. It's good to be enterprising. And your third place is not about how bad you are. It's because when you are working hard, the first and second place in front of you are also working hard. Just look at it."

"The first place is my second brother, and the second place is Xi Jingyu. The two of them seem to have tied the first and second places for a long time, not giving others a chance to sit in those two positions."

Listening to Ming Wei's complaints, Jiang Li's eyes nearly overflowed with smile. She asked, "Didn't you look at your academic performance?"

"Looked at it."

Mingwei answered simply.

"Do you see any problems from the transcript? For example, compared with last time's total score and scores in each subject, have you made progress this time or can't you retreat?"

Jiang Li asked with a smile.

Mingwei tilted her head and thought for a moment, then responded: "The total score is eight points more than last time, and the scores in each subject have improved."

"do you understand?"

Jiang Li asked again.

"..."

Mingwei's eyes were confused, what should she understand?

"Silly girl, your academic performance has improved. This means that you have defeated the you who took the last exam. Are you happy?"

"Um."

"If you are happy, why do you complain?"

"..."

"Weiwei, we have to be ourselves and compare ourselves with ourselves instead of comparing ourselves with others. In this way, we will become open-minded and know whether we have made progress, so we know what to do next. But if you If you blindly compare yourself with others, over time, you will feel tired and dissatisfied, and your negative emotions will gradually increase. Sooner or later, you will overwhelm yourself, ignore your own efforts and contributions, ignore that you have actually made progress, and that you are no worse than others. , do you think this is good?”

"not good."

"Then what are you going to do next?"

"Compare yourself to who you were yesterday."

"Good. Are you feeling better now?"

"Um."

"My daughter is so smart!"

Rubbing Ming Wei's head, Jiang Li smiled softly: "Okay, go back to your room and pack your luggage. We will leave for our hometown in three days."

"I'll go clean it up right now."

Mingwei immediately smiled and ran to the wing room where she lived.

Since the courtyard at Shuimu University is quite large and has many rooms, children of all sizes in the family will undoubtedly have their own rooms.

Of course, a room without Ron is indispensable.

After all, Ron would come to live in the courtyard every now and then to stay in touch with his older brothers and sisters.

…

The next day.

After lunch, Jiang Li and the chef made a lot of snacks in the kitchen. When it was half afternoon, she packed a lot of the snacks, put them into her travel bag, and packed them for Luo Yanqing. After grabbing a few sets of clothes, I set off for the institute.

"Mom's car is already far away!"

At the gate of the courtyard, Guoguo blinked and watched Jiang Li's car drive into the distance. She actually wanted to follow her mother to visit her father, but her sister shook her head at him and signaled her not to follow her mother. Why?

"Um."

Mingwei nodded in response, and then she said: "Let's go, it's cold outside, let's go home and warm up quickly."

Picking up Guoguo, Mingwei turned around and entered the yard.

Mingrui Minghan followed with dumplings and glutinous rice balls in her hands.

Fu Ma and Axiang were the last to enter the yard.

"Sister, why don't you let me go with my mother? Guoguo wants to see her father in her dreams!"

When the heating stove is burning in the living room, as soon as you enter the door, there is a clear difference between the temperature inside and outside.

"Sister knows that you miss dad, and you also know that you miss Tangyuan and the eldest and second brothers. Sister also misses dad, but the person dad wants to see most is mom. If we go together, it will affect mom and dad. "

"Guoguo doesn't understand."

"Silly goose!"

This is the sound of glutinous rice balls.

"Fifth brother is bad, I'm not a little fool!"

Guo Guo Nai Sheng retorted.

Tangyuan: "Luo Mingxi, if we are following, how can daddy kiss mommy?"

Guoguo: "Just kiss like that!"

Tangyuan: "What's that like?"

Guoguo: "Fifth brother is stupid, just like we kiss our mother, and our mother kisses us, doesn't dad even know how to do this?"

Tangyuan: "Dad, will you be embarrassed?"

Guoguo: "Why?"

Tangyuan: "Because we are around to make light bulbs."

After tilting his head and thinking for a while, Guoguo said in a sweet voice, "The light bulb is bright, isn't it good for parents to light up?"

Tangyuan asked: "No. Dad will feel embarrassed. Do you understand now?"

"I seem to understand!"

Guo Guo nodded her little head thoughtfully and said, "Dad is thin-skinned and wants to kiss mom, but because we are around, he is embarrassed to ask for a kiss like us kids, right?"

"Yes, that's it."

The glutinous rice balls dot the little heads.

"Well, it's a good thing we didn't make light bulbs, so Dad wouldn't feel embarrassed!"

Guoguo said and asked Tuanzi: "Fourth brother, am I right?"

"Um."

Tuanzi nodded seriously.

Guoguo asked Mingrui and Minghan again: "Big brother and second brother, what do you think?"

"Yes, just like you said, if we go with mom, dad is thin-skinned and wants to kiss mom or ask for a kiss from mom, he will definitely not be able to do it." Minghan said with a smile, feeling that Guo Guo The glutinous rice balls and glutinous rice balls are really cute.

Mingrui: "You are right."

Growing up, Mingrui could see clearly better than anyone else that in Luo Yanqing's eyes, there was only one Jiang Li, and as for children, they were absolutely unnecessary.

Even the three younger ones are no more lovable in the eyes of the old father than the three older ones!

He felt that their presence influenced him to show affection to their mother.

Jiang Li didn't drive very fast. After all, there was no need to rush, just drive at the normal speed.

Therefore, when the car drove into the institute, there was less than an hour left before getting off work.

After taking out the things in the bag and putting them away, Jiang Li went to Director Song's office and gave this godfather some snacks and a black mid-length down jacket.

"Li Bao! Why are you here? It's so cold, how can it be so cold!"

Hearing the knock on the door, Director Song casually said "Come in". When the office door was pushed open and he looked up at Jiang Li, his face was immediately filled with surprise, but in an instant he was filled with distress.

"Let me see you and Luo Yanqing."

Jiang Li smiled and put the brown paper bag containing snacks on the coffee table, then took out the down jacket from another bag and asked, "Isn't this busy?"

"not busy."

Director Song shook his head.

"Then try this down jacket. I bought one for you and Luo Yanqing."

Unzipping the down jacket, Jiang Li looked at Director Song and said, "The quality of this down jacket is very good. It's very warm when you wear it."

"In the past few years, you have bought a lot of clothes for me and your godmother. You have bought us two down jackets alone. Your godfather and I can't even wear all the clothes now. How good of you are you? You bought another down jacket this year. , What are you spending this money on?”

Director Song stood up helplessly. He walked out from behind the desk and put on his down jacket with Jiang Li's help.

Perfect length and size.

"It fits well."

Jiang Li's eyes were full of smiles.

"Um."

Director Song nodded.

Taking off his down jacket and handing it to Jiang Li, Director Song said, "I basically sit in the office every day, so I don't need to wear a down jacket at all."

"Don't you always go to the cafeteria to eat? Don't you go to other office buildings?"

Jiang Li folded the down jacket and returned it to the packaging bag. She smiled and said, "Although it hasn't snowed so far this year, the temperature is lower than in previous years. It's dry and cold, and the wind is strong. It's hard not to wear warm clothes."

"Okay, okay, godfather listens to you, just wear warm clothes when you go out."

Director Song said with loving eyes, and then asked: "You came here suddenly, is there something wrong?"

"Um."

Jiang Li nodded and said, "The office is busy and Luo Yanqing doesn't have time to take a vacation. I plan to take the children back to my hometown to celebrate the New Year. It just so happens that my grandpa is celebrating his birthday at home. If I go back early, I can also help with something."

"An old man's birthday is a happy and important event. You, my granddaughter, have to go back."

Director Song said: "Yan Qing probably won't have time to rest during the Spring Festival. Otherwise, it would be great to have him accompany you back to your hometown."

"I know he's busy."

Jiang Li smiled and asked, "Did Luo Yanqing eat on time?"

"Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on it for you. If that kid doesn't go to the cafeteria to eat, I'll take it to him personally. I'll watch him finish the meal, close his eyes and rest for half an hour before allowing him to re-enter. to work.”

"You didn't stay up late, did you?"

"...Occasionally, but not all night."

"The body is the capital of the revolution. If you tire yourself out, you won't be able to contribute to the country."

"That's right."

Director Song nodded in agreement.

…

As soon as the off-duty time came, Director Song helped Jiang Li make a call to Luo Yanqing's project research team. When he learned that his wife had come to the institute, Luo Yanqing rarely asked his subordinates to finish today's work.

He Wei and other members of the project team were all happy, and they all thought that it was probably Jiang Li who came to visit Luo Yanqing in the institute. Otherwise, their workaholic team leader Luo would never let them get off work so early.

After Luo Yanqing left, He Wei asked his colleague Yang Fan: "Xiao Yang, who called the team leader?"

"Director."

Yang Fan was relatively close to the landline and heard the ringing. He picked up the phone and heard Director Song's voice coming from inside. Therefore, when He Wei asked at this moment, he naturally didn't hide it.

"Did the director say that Comrade Jiang is here and ask our team leader to get off work immediately?"

He Wei's eyes were filled with gossip.

Yang Fan: "I don't know about this. The director just said that our team leader should answer the phone." This researcher Yang has been working in the institute for less than three years. He is considered a young man, but his work ability is quite good. He is very good to Luo Yanqing. value.

He Wei: "I guess it's probably the team leader's lover. Comrade Jiang is here. Otherwise, our team leader won't get off work for us right now."

Yang Fan: "It makes sense."

Another researcher echoed: "It does make sense. In the past, whenever Comrade Jiang came to the institute, the team leader would get off work on time."

Seeing Wen Siyuan walking towards the door, He Wei said hello to the other researchers who had not yet left, and then followed Wen Siyuan: "Why don't you call me?"

"You and Xiao Yang are talking."

Wen Siyuan replied casually.

"Then you can call me!"

The two of them walked side by side, and He Wei said: "With such a strong relationship between us, wouldn't your conscience hurt if you don't call me for dinner?"

"Won't."

Wen Siyuan's answer was straightforward.

"Old Wen, you...you hurt me!"

He Wei deliberately grimaced: "How can this be done?"

"Can you stop being so naughty with me?"

Wen Siyuan looked at He Wei, who looked like he had a headache: "I really don't want to talk to you."

Hearing this, He Wei was silent. After a moment, he said: "It's been so long, and you haven't let it go?"

Wen Siyuan knew what He Wei was referring to, but he didn't want to say more.

He Wei: "It's just a woman. With your conditions, I think it's not difficult to find another one."

To be honest, He Wei never thought that Wen Siyuan would divorce again. After all, divorce is not a good thing. It's already very embarrassing to divorce once. Who would have nothing to do and choose to divorce for the second time without considering their own face?

But just by chance, Wen Siyuan appeared around him.

He was living a good life, but suddenly divorced his wife Song Ning, and then married a little girl, which made many people envious. What happened? He got to the point of divorce again.

He Wei didn't know what Wen Siyuan was thinking, he couldn't see through it anyway.

Especially when Wen Siyuan chose to divorce Song Ning, He Wei felt that Wen Siyuan was probably out of his mind and had to end their marriage with a good wife and mother.

Of course, although they had a good relationship, divorce was Wen Siyuan's private matter. As a colleague and friend, he had advised her, but she didn't listen.

Recalling what he said when he advised Wen Siyuan, He Wei couldn't help but fall silent.

Every family has its own problems. Maybe there are some things he doesn't know, so Wen Siyuan chose to divorce again and again.

In order to avoid losing his friendship, He Wei decided not to mention the topic that Wen Siyuan didn't want to talk about.

"I don't want to find another one."

Wen Siyuan's voice was emotionless: "Everyone has his own destiny. I am not as lucky as the team leader to marry a good woman like Comrade Jiang who cares about her family and her husband and children. Since marriage is already a burden to me, it may not be bad for me to be single for the rest of my life."

He Wei: "Comrade Jiang is good, but such a good woman is not easy to find."

"It is hard to find, so I said I am not as lucky as the team leader." Wen Siyuan smiled bitterly: "Don't be afraid of you laughing at me, I regret divorcing Song Ning, but I was like eating lard and blinded my heart at that time. I listened to my mother's nagging, and insisted on divorce regardless of anything. Ignoring Song Ning's reluctance to leave the child, I went with her to complete the divorce procedures."

He Wei consoled: "Marriage is not a matter for one person. If you are not in harmony with your feelings or have other conflicts, you have to choose to divorce. Don't blame yourself."

Wen Siyuan shook his head: "No, I and There is no emotional discord between Song Ning and me, nor is there any conflict. It is my fault. I am nitpicking and do not want to live with Song Ning. She did nothing wrong. It is a pity... It is a pity that I realized my mistake too late! Later, I married Su Man, but I did not know her well, which led to the breakdown of my marriage again. Sometimes I can't help thinking that the failure of this second marriage may be a punishment for my first marriage. "

"You think too much! Now is a new society, we can't have any feudal superstitions!"

Patting Wen Siyuan's shoulder, He Wei smiled: "Troubles will always pass, just like there may not be a rainbow after the storm, but there will definitely be dawn after the night."

This chicken soup made Wen Siyuan involuntarily startled. After a moment, he glanced at He Wei and said, "What if this night can't be passed?"

"Old Wen, you are a bit too picky!"

He Wei laughed and laughed.

Wen Siyuan: "But I still want to thank you for trying to comfort me. You've worked hard."

He Wei raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Are you being too formal?! We are as close as brothers. I can't bear to see you depressed all day long."

The two chatted and walked to the dormitory building, and saw Luo Yanqing walking out of the building with a lunch box in one hand and Jiang Li in the other hand.

First, he greeted Luo Yanqing, and then he turned his eyes to Jiang Li: "Comrade Jiang is here?!"

Hearing this, Jiang Li smiled and nodded and said "yeah".

Wen Siyuan nodded to Jiang Li, and Jiang Li also nodded to him, and the two greeted each other.

"Is it cold?"

After Wen Siyuan and the others entered the dormitory building, Luo Yanqing put the hand holding Jiang Li into his coat pocket: "Why don't you go back to the dormitory and wait?"

"No need."

Jiang Li shook her head, and a smile lingered in her clear and soft eyes: "I want to walk with you."

Then catch insects. . .
