Love That Extends Life

Chapter 181: Share the joys and the sorrows

The bald man nodded after hearing what the yellow-haired man said, and then responded cheerfully: "Okay, let's go! It just so happens that my little sister got a new job, so we should celebrate it too."

When Wu Yanzi heard the answers from her two brothers, a bright smile immediately appeared on her face.

At this time, she invited Aunt Zhao and Aunt Su again, but both of them politely declined. It turned out that Aunt Zhao's husband Chen Haitao was waiting for Aunt Zhao to come home for dinner, so Aunt Zhao would not eat out. Similarly, Aunt Su told Wu Yanzi that she had to go home to cook for her husband in the evening, so she could not go out for dinner with her.

Wu Yanzi understood the decision of Aunt Zhao and Aunt Su and did not force them to go together. After all, everyone has their own life and responsibilities, so in addition to understanding, the interaction between people is more about respect.

"Brother Liang, do we need to clean up this stall?" asked the yellow-haired man.

"Monkey, there's no need to put it away. We can't take it to the restaurant even if we pack it up. I think we should just leave it here and let Aunt Zhao and Aunt Su help take care of it. We'll come back to clean it up after dinner." The bald man thought for a while and said.

"Okay, Brother Liang, I'll go talk to them right away." The yellow-haired man agreed and went to find Aunt Zhao and Aunt Su, and asked Aunt Zhao and Aunt Su to help look after the child.

After making the arrangements, the bald man and the yellow-haired man followed Wu Yanzi to a nearby small restaurant.

This is a small restaurant, but it is very clean and tidy. The waiters are warm and attentive, making people feel very comfortable.

After the three of them entered the small restaurant, they found a seat, sat down, and started ordering food.

Wu Yanzi asked her two brothers to order a few dishes first, and then she ordered two plates of her favorite vegetarian dishes.

"Brother, brother, what kind of wine are you drinking?" Wu Yanzi asked.

"Let's drink baijiu. Then just have a bottle of Erguotou!" said the bald man after thinking for a while.

After a while, the food came up.

The yellow-haired man immediately opened the glass of white wine, poured a full glass for the bald man, and then filled another glass for himself.

Wu Yanzi doesn't drink alcohol, so she can only drink tea instead. "Big brother, second brother, I'm very happy to meet you two brothers, and you two brothers are very caring to me. Here, I drink tea instead of wine. Thank you for your help and care."

"Little sister, don't be polite with us. We are all gathered together by fate. My brother and I are very happy to meet a little sister like you who we get along well with." The yellow-haired man said politely with a smile.

"Well, your second brother is right. You and us should not be polite. If I need your second brother and me in the future, just tell me. Your second brother and I will never refuse." The bald man continued.

Through getting along with Wu Yanzi, the bald man had a very good impression of Wu Yanzi, because Wu Yanzi respected him and the yellow-haired man from the bottom of her heart, and he was a man who valued friendship and loyalty, so he treated Wu Yanzi like his own sister.

"Hey, I'd like to toast my eldest and second brothers! Eldest brother, second brother, feel free to drink." Wu Yanzi smiled and raised her glass to toast her two brothers.

"drink!"

"drink wine!"

The bald man and the yellow-haired man clinked their wine glasses against Wu Yanzi's teacup, and both of them took a sip of wine.

"Brother, brother, eat the food!" Wu Yanzi said as she pushed the plate towards her two brothers, letting the bald man and the yellow-haired man pick up some food to eat.

The three of them started chatting while eating.

After a few sips of wine, the bald man and the yellow-haired man talked more, and Wu Yanzi then learned their identities.

It turns out that the bald man's eldest brother is called Li Mingliang, and the yellow-haired man's second brother is called Hou Jie. Both of them are living alone now. Li Mingliang has no impression of his family. Since he went astray and mixed up in the underworld after graduating from high school, he was kicked out of the house by his father, and he never returned home. After Hou Jie's parents divorced, no one took care of him. Later, he lived with his grandmother. With the death of his grandmother, he also lived a wandering life.

"Brother, when you have the chance, you should go home and visit your parents. Maybe they will no longer hate you." Wu Yanzi consoled him.

Li Mingliang shook his head, as if his heart was full of sorrow and bitterness.

"My home is in the countryside, and my parents are honest farmers. I have an older sister who has been married for a long time. Later, my sister came to the city to visit me, but I was very proud at that time. I planned to make a name for myself and then return home in glory. But more than ten years have passed, and I have gained nothing, so I am too embarrassed to go back." Li Mingliang kept sighing. The hardships of life made the once proud self disappear.

"Brother, as parents, they don't just expect you to bring honor to the family. In fact, as long as you can live an upright life like you are now, I think your parents will definitely accept you." Wu Yanzi continued to persuade.

"Little sister, you don't know big brother." At this time, Hou Jie took a sip of wine and continued, "Big brother is a man who cares about face. He won't go home unless he makes a name for himself. Big brother is also a man who values ​​friendship and loyalty. I can follow big brother because I value big brother's loyalty. Six years ago, big brother accompanied his boss to collect usury, and a fight broke out. Two people on the other side were seriously injured. Later, big brother took the blame and went to jail for six years. After big brother came out of jail, his former big brother gave him 60,000 yuan as compensation, but at the same time, they also severed their relationship."

"Oh, that's what happened." Wu Yanzi finally understood why Li Mingliang was in jail, but she felt that it was not worth it to buy out his sentence for six years at a cost of 60,000 yuan. "Brother, the past is the past. We will work hard in the future and everything will be fine."

Li Mingliang thought about the past, his thoughts were in turmoil, and his heart was filled with resentment and anger.

"I have been in jail for six years, and this is just 60,000 yuan to get rid of me..." Li Mingliang bit his lip and said it word by word. The wine glass in his hand kept turning, and some of the wine in the glass splashed out.

"Brother, just like I said, let the past be the past. We can start all over again in the future." Hou Jie comforted him.

Li Mingliang nodded, and then he looked at Wu Yanzi, "Little sister, how is your work going recently?"

"Well, it's okay. Our recreation and health care service center has just started, and everything is still in the exploratory stage, but I believe it will develop. When the unit develops well in the future, I will bring my eldest brother and second brother in, and then the three of us brothers and sisters will work hard together. We will share the good times and the bad times together." Wu Yanzi said cheerfully.

"Well, that's right. We share happiness and difficulties. Little sister, your second brother and I are always on standby. As long as you need us, just tell us and your second brother and I will follow you around and do anything for you."

"Haha, okay. Come on, big brother, second brother, let's drink another one together!"

In this way, the three of them ate and chatted, and the atmosphere became very harmonious.
