Lin Shilang Gu

Chapter 38:

Lin Yuewei wandered around like a headless fly for a while downstairs, and finally ran to find her mother.

knock on the door.

Mother Lin came out with an angry voice: "Sleep! Don't look for me!"

Lin Yuewei: "..."

Hey, mother, Hong Niang's heart is not dead, she pretends to be dead as soon as she enters the house.

Lin Yuewei continued to knock, no matter what her mother did, she went straight to the door and asked, "Is there a new toothbrush at home? Your dear Gu Yanqiu doesn't have a toothbrush, so how do you brush your teeth at night?"

"Don't you have spares in your room?"

"I have an electric one, only the toothbrush head." Lin Yuewei mischievously digged his fingers on the door panel, making a harsh sound, and the mother Lin inside was furious, and said, "Stop digging! What a bad problem!"

Lin Yuewei chuckled: "Hurry up, mom, find me a new one."

Lin Yuewei put her ear to the door, and when she heard footsteps, far and near, she hurriedly stood at attention, the door in front of her was pulled open, and Lin's mother sneaked her head out and looked behind Lin Yuewei.

"Where's the Gu family's daughter?"

"I'm taking a shower."

"How do you know she's taking a shower?" Mother Lin's eyes lit up.

"She asked me for a toothbrush before taking a shower." Lin Yuewei reduced the complexity to simplicity and skillfully lied, spreading his hands in front of her, "Where's the toothbrush?"

Mother Lin gave her the new toothbrush in her hand.

"Don't bully people all the time." Mother Lin told her.

"Me? Bullying others?" Lin Yuewei felt that he was more wronged than Dou E. Just like Gu Yanqiu, who dared to bully her, she would freeze people to death, and bully.

Mama Lin raised her eyebrows: "Ah, it's just you, the domineering one."

"Yes, you are turning your elbows out now, I won't argue with you." Lin Yuewei threw the new toothbrush in his hand, caught it, and walked upstairs.

Mother Lin closed the door, sat back on the bed, and suddenly felt a shock.

No, how did she get upstairs with a toothbrush?

Lin Yuewei went upstairs and glanced back in fear. She was careless just now, and she didn't take precautions. She should have walked in the direction of the guest room instead of going upstairs. Fortunately, her mother didn't find it, otherwise she would have to catch it again. Click and hold, ramble ramble ramble. Could it be that I was a mute in my last life, and I will be ten or eight times as much in this life. Come back.

Lin Yuewei sat on the bed and waited for Gu Yanqiu to come out of the bath, throwing the toothbrush up and down in her hand, recalling her mother's attitude was a bit strange. It's not that her mother didn't introduce her to someone before, but most of them stayed in words. If Lin Yuewei strongly expressed that she didn't like it, she would shut her mouth properly and continue to find the next one. If Yuewei really finds someone to fall in love with, it is better to pass the time or tease Lin Yuewei. This time, it was strange, but it seemed that he was really interested, and all eighteen martial arts were used. Could it be because she and Gu Yanqiu received a marriage certificate, and they felt different in her mind? Or maybe her father has been on business trips a bit more recently, and she is getting bored at home and treats it as a career more and more.

Lin Yuewei snorted and grabbed the phone next to her to call her dad.

The strange thing is that no one answered the phone until it hung up automatically. Lin Yuewei took it down and confirmed the call, dialed it again, beeped twice, and Dad Lin answered.

"Wei Wei, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I heard mom say you're on a business trip again?"

"Yes, I've been too busy with work recently, and several projects have been rushed together." Dad Lin asked, "Is there anything you want to do with me?"

"No, I'm fine, my mother is fine."

"What's wrong with her?" Dad Lin's tone changed obviously.

"It's okay, can you not be so nervous every time, and take into account your daughter's mood." Lin Yue smiled. Her father and her mother have been together for so many years, and the relationship is still as good as before. When she heard a little movement from her, she immediately became nervous. The voice got louder.

Lin Yuewei has never wanted to fall in love for this reason. She feels that there is probably no man or woman in this world who can compare to her father, and she has been single all the way.

"Then you're telling me, what's wrong? I'm dying."

Lin Yuewei glanced in the direction of the bathroom, the sound of the shower didn't stop inside, she kept her voice down, and said, "Gu Yanqiu—just my cheap wife, I can't be the real one, now in our house, my mother please She came over for lunch."

"Isn't it lunch? Why are you still here at night?" Dad Lin asked inexplicably.

"Have lunch, have dinner, and stay overnight after dinner." Lin Yuewei told Dad Lin about her mother's sleazy operation, and Dad Lin leaned against the wall and laughed breathlessly: "It really looks like your mother. something can be done.”

"You are still laughing. If you don't go home, I will be forced to hang by my mother."

"What are you talking about, it's unlucky."

"There is so much money at home, I don't have to work so hard anymore, and I can make money now." Lin Yuewei cut to the point of her call, "If you have time, go home to spend more time with my mother, and the money will never run out."

"Well, I know, I'll be back in two days."

"Then go to bed earlier, I won't disturb you."

"You too, good night, my dear daughter."

"Good night."

Lin Yuewei finished the phone call, and after three or five minutes, water dripped from Gu Yanqiu's hair and asked her, "Miss Lin, do you have a towel to wipe your hair?"

"Yes, I'll get it for you." Lin Yuewei swept his eyes casually in front of her, but his eyes slipped on the slightly exposed white greasy. Gu Yanqiu was still wearing the low-cut suspender skirt she gave her, and she bent down slightly at this time, which was even more eye-catching.

Lin Yuewei hurriedly turned his eyes away, turned half-sideways, and handed the towel to Gu Yanqiu, afraid that something might happen, so he hurriedly issued the eviction order: "What, it's late, you hurry downstairs to sleep, tomorrow Gotta go to work."

Gu Yanqiu, who was "driven" out after being stuffed with a towel: "..."

Gu Yanqiu tilted his head and raised his eyebrows in confusion. She wrapped a towel around her hair and wiped her hair as she went downstairs, walking lightly. Lin Yuewei couldn't hear the footsteps outside, and a sense of irritability rose in her heart. She scratched her hair, grabbed a set of pajamas, got into the bathroom, and raised her head to let the hot water pour from her head to her feet.

At twelve o'clock in the evening, Lin Yuewei, who was tossing and turning in bed, received a text message from Gu Yanqiu: Good night.

Lin Yuewei watched for a few minutes, but didn't dare to look back, and closed her eyes tightly.

Peace of mind all night.

It was early in the summer and the sun was shining in her room. Gu Yanqiu opened his eyes in the thin morning light, untied the rope from his wrist to the head of the bed, moved his muscles and bones, and opened the door after washing.

Mother Lin was sleeping soundly in the dream, her ears moved, and she seemed to hear a knock on the door. She thought she heard it wrong, so she turned over and continued to sleep.

When the two of them woke up, Gu Yanqiu had already disappeared.

Mother Lin didn't find Gu Yanqiu when she woke up in the morning. She thought that Gu Yanqiu and Lin Yuewei had secretly shared the bed in the middle of the night. For fear of disturbing each other.

At 8:30 in the morning, mother Lin saw that she was going to be late for work, so she went upstairs and knocked on the door in person.

Lin Yuewei complained to her with her messy hair and sleepy eyes: "Why don't you even let people sleep, do you know that your own daughter hasn't slept well in four months, it's been so long for me Sleeping at home for the first time."

"You sleep with you. I didn't look for you. I looked for Gu's daughter."

"Gu Yanqiu?" Lin Yuewei leaned towards the door, opened his eyes a little wider, and said, "Don't she live downstairs? Why are you running here?"

"she is not here."

"Maybe it's a walk in the garden. An old cadre like her probably has this habit." Lin Yuewei yawned, "Mom, is there anything else? I'll go back to sleep if it's all right."

"Wait. It's impossible for her to leave without saying hello. Did she send you a message?"

"No."

Mama Lin's face was stern.

"If you say no, there is no. Who am I? Just send me a message if you have something to do."

"Look at your phone."

Lin Yuewei swayed the head of the bed crookedly, picked up the phone, unlocked the screen, and shook his blurred vision: "I said no, it's-"

She opened her eyes suddenly.

There really is.

[I go home and change clothes to go to work, thank you, and thank my aunt for my kindness]

Mother Lin knew there was something going on when she froze there and said, "Is there any news?"

Lin Yuewei showed her mobile phone to her mother.

Mother Lin smiled and said, "I knew it. She's not the kind of rude person, so why didn't she text me, but send it to you?"

Mother Lin looked at Lin Yuewei with hints.

Lin Yuewei looked horrified to her: "How do I know?"

"Why don't you know? Then explain why?"

"Maybe it's because you're too old to sleep lightly, and it's easy to wake you up if you send a message." Lin Yuewei didn't tell her mother much, just made excuses to put her off, and pushed her mother from his room coaxingly and hurriedly. out.

Lin Yuewei breathed a sigh of relief, bit her lip at the words on her phone, and thought in a trance: Yes, why not send a message to her mother who seems to be closer, but send it to herself?

Shouldn't it be...

Lin Yuewei reprimanded her narcissistic thoughts again, and pushed it backwards. If she sent it to her mother and not to herself, would she have to make up her mind about her desire to cover up or something.

Isn't it just sending a message? Either she or her mother, everything makes sense, what to think about.

It's better to sleep more and prepare for the future battlefield.

Lin Yuewei lay back in the quilt, but after her feeling was interrupted by her mother, she couldn't get back to the cage even if she wanted to. Lin Yuewei got up from the bed and communicated with Shao Yasi on the phone.

The other party was a foreigner and went home as well, but she was a little better than Lin Yuewei. She had already eaten breakfast and went out to the supermarket with her mother. Shao Yasi said that she was recognized by passers-by outside today.

Lin Yuewei had a casual chat with her, then hung up the phone and went downstairs.

Lin Yuewei was not a person who was comfortable in her room, but Shao Yasi made her heart tick, and at the risk of being recognized, she was going to go out for a walk today. While drinking porridge, she sent Jiang Congbi a WeChat message.

【Want to go out to play? [wink]]

Jiang Congbi returned her "sleepy" expression, and directly sent out a voice: "My Miss Lin, have you forgotten today's day of the week, today's Monday, a social animal like me has to go to work. Yesterday I told you to come out, but if you don't come out, I don't have time today."

Lin Yue smiled and replied, "Are you so serious about work? I thought you could skip work at will."

"Of course, the form still needs to be done. Even if I sit in the office and play games for a day, I will shout in a rotten voice: 'I will never be late and leave early'."

"Consciousness is very high." Lin Yuewei said, "Who else is not working and can come out to play at any time? You can recommend it to me."

Jiang Congbi thought for a while, and gave her several names, but Lin Yuewei rejected them all.

Jiang Congbi spread out her hands: "There's no other way, the others have been caught in the company, just like me."

Lin Yuewei said, "Okay, then I'll go out by myself."

Jiang Congbi reminded: "Be careful, don't take any bad photos."

"What...a bad photo?" Lin Yuewei always felt that there was a deep meaning in her words.

"Oh, I just said it casually to let you pay attention. Now that you are a star, someone will recognize you at any time."

"Really?"

"real."

"I'll check it out later."

"As long as you're happy, I won't tell you. My assistant reminded me that it's time to go to a meeting. If I have something to do with WeChat, I'll get back to you when I'm free." Jiang Congbi, the newcomer, hung up the phone first.

Lin Yuewei recalled her last sentence and couldn't help but smile, Jiang Cong has been in the blue for more than 20 years, and now it's really like that when he goes to work. She blew on the porridge scooped up from the spoon, and she felt relieved that everyone had grown up.

Lin Yuewei suddenly remembered the white hair on her mother's head, raised her head and asked, "Mom, have you been unhappy recently?"

Mother Lin: "What is it?"

Lin Yuewei raised her voice: "I asked if you are unhappy recently?"

"No, I tend to the flowers and plants at home every day, and I can find a matchmaker for you when I have nothing to do. What's wrong with that? By the way," she said these words quickly, a little like she was in a hurry, only There is an emphasis on the last sentence "Right", as if the previous paragraph was just to pave the way for "Right", he said, "I have set your sights on a new house for you, and when your father comes back, you will follow us. Go and sign it."

"Sign what?"

"You are the head of the household, who will sign if you don't sign?"

"What kind of house do you want to buy me again?" Over the years, the scattered Lin family has bought a lot of assets including real estate for Lin Yuewei, including the previous marriage house—the single-family three-story villa where Gu Yanqiu lives now. It was written in Lin Yuewei's name, and Lin Yuewei said, "I don't want it."

Mother Lin: "Hey you child, other people's children are begging their parents to buy a house, but you are pushing back three and four."

Lin Yuewei: "Other people's homes are other people's homes, and I am mine. I said that I don't want the money from the two of you in the future. You can keep it for your own retirement, dear."

"How much do I need for my retirement?" said Mama Lin, "you have to have this house, or you have to have it."

Lin Yuewei: "Why are you acting like a hooligan?"

Lin's mother raised her eyebrows: "I'm just being a hooligan, what's wrong?"

Lin Yuewei spread out his hands as a bachelor, and said, "Then I'm also a hooligan, so I don't want it, what about you?"

"You—" Mother Lin's eyes turned red, she took a tissue from the table and pressed it to the corner of her eyes, turning her back.

Lin Yuewei was so frightened that she threw the spoon.

Why did she cry because she didn't want a house?

"mom."

"Don't call me mom." Mother Lin avoided her and wanted to come over and touch her hand.

"Mom..." Lin Yuewei was at a loss, "Tell me what you're crying about."

"You are not filial."

The big hat of "unfilial piety" was buckled down, causing Lin Yuewei to lose his head, "Why am I unfilial, just because I don't want you to buy me a house?"

Mother Lin: "Ah."

Lin Yuewei: "..."

Mother Lin: "Is there any difference between one more house and one less house under my name? I bought so many for you before, but I didn't see you wanting it. Anyway, it's there to keep the value, and it's me and you if it's not in your name. Under the father's name, as a mother, I want to leave more things for my children, did I do something wrong?"

Lin Yuewei: "..."

If you think about it, it's true.

Lin Yuewei still wanted to struggle: "Or just write it in your name, just like me."

Mama Lin looked at her with red eyes, tears streaming down her cheeks, and she didn't speak.

Lin Yuewei's army collapsed like a mountain and surrendered: "Go, go, buy, buy, buy, buy, buy, my name is mine."

Mama Lin burst into tears: "Dead child."

She stretched her lazy waist, took the water bottle and went to the garden, how could she just cry like rain.

Lin Yuewei: "..."

***

For the second time, Gu Yanqiu submitted a layoff proposal to the personnel department to remove several worms in her department. The first time it was rejected, but this time it was passed unexpectedly.

It is said that it was approved by a high-level above. This high-level person eliminated all factors by himself and returned Gu Yanqiu to a clean department.

Lin Zhi was stunned when he saw a few worms in the department who dared to pack up and leave without saying a word. These people are said to have backgrounds. Even Lin Zhi, who is logically above them, is a head short in front of them.

Is this gone? ? ?

Before those people left, they glanced bitterly towards Gu Yanqiu's office. Gu Yanqiu was naturally invisible, and Lin Zhi returned a smile. Everyone is gone.

Lin Zhi put a hundred questions in his mind, and asked Gu Yanqiu when he got off work: "Mr. Gu, did those people leave their jobs or were they transferred to other departments?"

When the show ended, Gu Yanqiu changed back to the pen and said lightly, "Resign."

"That's what you're leaving?" Lin Zhi said excitedly.

"Don't you understand the meaning of dismissal?" Gu Yanqiu asked rhetorically.

"I can't believe it if I understand and understand." Lin Zhibaba stared at Gu Yanqiu for a while, hoping to get some specific operation from her, one second, two seconds, three seconds.

Gu Yanqiu raised his head.

Lin Zhi made a gesture of listening intently.

Gu Yanqiu said, "Do you want to stay and work overtime? Just a few people left. Although they did less work, there was still a little bit of work, otherwise you would take over?"

"I'm going back, goodbye Mr. Gu." Lin Zhi hurriedly slipped away, as if stepping on a hot wheel under his feet, for fear that Gu Yanqiu would grab his tail and give him all the work.

Gu Yanqiu smiled lightly,

After a while, Lin Zhi came back again: "Mr. Gu, I thought about it, those few people really don't have much work, otherwise you can give it to me, I'm still young and can work overtime."

The company's overtime pay is still very generous, and Lin Zhi is thinking that he is a newcomer in the workplace. If he is competent and diligent in front of his boss, he will have a better chance of promotion.

"No, I'm teasing you." Gu Yanqiu waved his hand and said, "Let's go."

"Is it really not necessary?"

"It's really not necessary." Gu Yanqiu squeezed a fountain pen from the pen holder, and pretended to throw it away, but Lin Zhi really slipped away.

Just after "driving" Lin Zhi away, Gu Yanqiu's cell phone rang, and the caller ID: Wu XX.

"President Wu." Gu Yanqiu picked up the phone.

This President Wu was one of the highest positions that Tian Rui went to when Gu Yanqiu followed him to talk about business. Later, the negotiation failed. Gu Yanqiu suspected that the other party had already left, and President Wu gave Gu Yanqiu the errand of the investigation. After going back and forth, Gu Yanqiu and President Wu became friends.

Later, Gu Huai told Gu Yanqiu about the internal struggle in the company, and she knew that this President Wu was one of the leaders of the big Wu faction who advocated listing, and Gu Huai meant to let her enter the big Wu faction and come here. One please enter the urn.

This layoff is because Mr. Wu supported her on it.

After Gu Yanqiu answered the phone, he packed up and walked out of the office.

"Buy a house for Wei Wei?" Two days later, Dad Lin, who was returning home from a business trip, took a break, finished dinner, and watched the news broadcast in the living room. Mama Lin put forward this suggestion.

"Yes, I saw a community recently, and there is a lot of room for appreciation, so I thought about buying it for her."

"Didn't you just buy one when you got married a while ago?"

"Isn't that Gu's daughter living here?" Mother Lin leaned on Father Lin's arm and said, "You know what the relationship between the two of them is. They don't live together. I think this community is more suitable."

"Where?" Dad Lin raised his eyelids and smiled softly.

Mother Lin took out the prepared brochure, "Just this community."

Dad Lin turned it over carefully, frowned slowly, and said, "Here? The appreciation space may not be as high as this." He pointed to another plot on the map.

"Then you bought it here?"

"I have to go back and check. Now that the house price is so high, a house is not a small amount, and the company's cash chain has to be considered."

Mother Lin expressed annoyance and said, "I have already told Yuewei that I will take her to go through the house purchase procedures in two days, but I won't buy it now... Hey, my mouth is too fast, it would be better if I hadn't told her. ."

Dad Lin: "Did you tell her?"

Mother Lin nodded.

Father Lin pinched his brows, took a light breath, and said, "Then I'll go to her in the next two days, and I can't go back on what I promised."

At that moment, Mother Lin looked at him with very gentle eyes, but she was very sad. However, this emotion only lasted for a short time in her eyes and then dissipated suddenly. She worried: "It won't be too tiring for you, right? The company is so busy and has to worry about such small things."

Dad Lin held her hand and said with a smile, "No, don't look at who my husband is."

He said this with a three-point pride, his invisible little tail was raised, very much like the big boy more than 20 years ago.

A hint of unbearable flashed in Mama Lin's eyes, which soon became firm.

"Go to bed early today after reading the news."

"it is good."

The news broadcast is the businessman's weather forecast. Dad Lin watched the news every day without stopping. The broadcast was only at 7:30 pm. Today, he fell asleep on the sofa before it was over. Mother Lin covered him with a blanket and looked at him quietly, with all kinds of complicated emotions flashing in her eyes.
