"You have always hated us!" The mother was suddenly excited and slapped her palm on the table, "I know, you have been blaming us since Beiyan was born. Do you think I want to raise another child at such an old age? No Beiyan, what should I do when your father and I are getting old? Are we relying on you? Lying in the hospital bed, it is difficult for you to help us get up and go to the toilet!"
"You can take care of yourself now, that's because you're young. When you're in your sixties or seventies, and we're gone, what do you do? How do you live alone? Is it wrong for me to be born to Beiyan? I let him take care of you and me. Is there something wrong?"
It was like an active volcano that had been brewing for thirteen years. Once it erupted, she spewed scorching lava everywhere, hurting anyone who came close to her and tried to persuade her.
"Auntie, don't get excited."
Shen Luoyu put her hand on her mother's shoulder when she slammed it away.
"You already knew that, didn't you?" She glared at Shen Luoyu and looked at the aunt on the other side, "I just don't understand, why do you always like to get involved in other people's affairs? Who doesn't say good things when they are good people? Yes? I am strict also for their future. Wouldn’t I be able to get into such a good university without my Beijiao?”
The aunt kept her face stern, changed her previous gentle attitude, and said coldly: "You can talk to the child well, who wants to interfere with your family's affairs?"
"Speak well, Xiaoying also cares about children."
Although my father was intimidated, he loved my aunt very much. Their parents died early when they were young, and they grew up with each other. Later, their aunt was a widow at a young age, and her health was not good. There was not much sadness behind her father, and she felt that her younger sister’s life was suffering, so she always asked her mother to help out more. move around.
Recovering from the daze and shock, he was not in a hurry to follow my mother to scold me, but helped my aunt talk.
This undoubtedly added fuel to the fire, and the mother stood up suddenly, pointed at his nose and scolded: "Bei Jianhui, shut up! I've been married to your family for eight lifetimes! It's been more than 30 years, take care of the children. It's me, it's me who does the housework, it's me who takes care of your sister, what else can you do other than sit there like a Buddha?"
"What are you saying, I don't have money to support my family? Do I not want to take care of the child? That's because you don't let me take care of it, you think I'm not good at taking care of it... "
I thought it was a three-on-two between me and my aunt and my parents today, but unexpectedly it became a one-on-four between my mother and us.
I sighed secretly, then got up slowly, and joined the noisy quarrel: "I didn't come to quarrel, and I didn't come to ask your opinions."
I try to maintain a peaceful attitude and tone, and don't want to exacerbate the conflict. Now it's meaningless to count each other's shortcomings one by one, neither can they tell the difference between the ugly and the ugly, and they can't say one, two, three or four.
Of course it's best if you can get approval, but if you don't get it... there's no need to force it.
"You are old now and your wings are hard. Of course you don't need our opinion. We are no longer on the same level as you. It is normal for you to despise us." Mother said with a smile, His eyes were full of ridicule, "You're looking for a man, and you're going to find someone who can live a good life? Look at the guy outside, the words "playboy" are written all over his body, and the millions and tens of millions in his mouth are like playing. , drop out of school to go racing if you don't study well at a young age, and can you be serious?"
If she directly denied my sexual orientation, I would be happier, but she did not, with a superficial "for your own good" attitude, secretly exercising her own desire for control, trying to impose her own will on me. If I don't listen, I'm not filial, and it means "hardship is still to come".
I frowned and said, "I don't need to prove to you whether he is serious about me. I know him better than you, and I know what kind of person he is."
Across the dining room door, she raised her finger in the direction of the living room and sneered: "He is only twenty-one, Bei Ji, when you were forty, he was only twenty-eight! Today I will treat you as a daughter, you Looking for such a person, no matter how rich the other party is, I will not agree!"
"I promise." As soon as she finished speaking, her aunt whispered to the side.
The mother immediately slapped the table again with her palm and scolded, "What's the matter with you!"
"Aunt, aren't you afraid that no one will take care of Beijiao when he gets old? Isn't it a good idea to be a dozen years younger than him? When he was in his seventies and eighties, Renshang Muxiao could still move, and he could still be fed a glass of water by the bedside. I did it." Shen Luoyu was worthy of being a good assistant, and the angle of analyzing the problem was quite tricky, and instantly blocked his mother to the point of speechlessness.
Seeing that her face was flushed red, she was about to burst into anger, and an enamel cup slammed to the ground, making a loud noise, stopping everyone present.
In the restaurant, which had been quiet for a while, there was only the sound of the tea jar rolling on the tiles. Before it could stop, the restaurant door was slammed open, and Shang Muxiao rushed in and blocked in front of me with a protective posture.
At the same time, there are egg yolks.
It ran around the dining table frantically, and finally stopped beside me, baring its teeth, with Shang Muxiao in front and the other at the side, tightly protecting me.
"Don't move him, I insisted on being with him, you all want to beat me." Shang Muxiao blocked me behind his broad back, and his voice was unusually calm and very different from the eager action when he rushed in. Know what you are doing.
Father stared at him for a moment, then bent over to pick up the big tea jar from the ground and put it back on the table.
"Okay, let's go." He sighed.
Mother sat back in the chair again with a blank face, staring at a certain point on the floor tile without making a sound. It was as if all her arrogance and anger had been splattered by the vat of tea just now, and now she is a puddle of wet wood, and she no longer has the momentum she had before.
"Xiaojie, go back first." My aunt winked at me.
This is the result I had expected, nothing to lose. I finished confessing to my parents, telling them who I am, and I don't have to deal with them all the time, and that's enough.
Let Shang Muxiao hold the egg yolk and step on the ground full of tea, and he and I left the restaurant one after the other.
"Brother..." Bei Yan timidly hid behind the restaurant door, clawed at the door frame and looked up at me, his voice full of unease.
I patted his head, said goodbye to him, and told him I would come to see him later.
Shen Luoyu sent me and Shang Muxiao to the door, asking us to be careful along the way. He said that he would talk to her mother later to persuade my parents to stop worrying.
"Auntie is hard-hearted and soft-hearted. You believe me and promise to win it for them."
My parents know best that they are as hard to persuade as to convince materialists that there are gods in this world.
But at least on the surface, I still gave Shen Luoyu an optimistic attitude.
"Then trouble you and auntie."
She handed the backpack to Shang Muxiao and said, "It's all from her own family, so it's not troublesome to say anything."
When I got downstairs, I walked in front, and Shang Muxiao followed behind. When I was about to get to the car, I turned around and wanted to take the egg yolk from him, but I saw him drooping his head and looking listless, looking even harder than I was.
"What's wrong?" I asked as he slowly approached.
He stopped, and after a while, he said, "They don't like me." His voice was a little dull, "I thought... I could please them."
He raised his head, his eyes were clear and translucent under the moonlight, and his expression was genuinely unhappy.
Except for Shang Lu, he may not have suffered such a big Waterloo anywhere. He can always please anyone if he wants to.
Heart a little sour. Suddenly I understood Yu Xixi's words and deeds when he was chasing stars and fighting black fans - he is so good, are you all blind, why can't you see
"Head down." I said.
There was doubt in his eyes, but he kept his head down.
"It doesn't matter if they like you or not, I like you is enough." I held his profile and kissed him lightly on the lips.
I thought that egg yolk's feet would heal on its own without medicine, and could go down the ground like a normal dog, but when I got home and put it on the floor, it barked like killing a pig, worse than anyone else.
I don't know what happened to this puppy, such a small body, such a big play addiction.
Shang Muxiao advocated eagle-style education, saying that he would throw it on the floor. I hurriedly stopped him, saying that it was too unfriendly to the neighbors, so forget it.
He was stunned for a long time, as if he remembered that there are people up and down, left and right, in my small shabby house, not like his big villa.
Aside from acting, the egg yolk's performance tonight was remarkable. While Shang Muxiao went to take a bath, I took it to bed and let it sleep beside me.
Maybe it took too much energy for one meal at night, and I fell asleep after a while. In a daze, Shang Muxiao returned to the bed with the refreshing breath of the shower gel. Maybe I thought the picture of me hugging the dog was very interesting. laugh it out.
"Teacher, you are so cute." He leaned down and kissed my forehead. "Everyone else doesn't matter, as long as you are there. Good night."
The next day was the weekend. Originally, I planned to take Shang Muxiao to see Sister Liao and join the long-lost psychological support group to see if I could untie his knot. As a result, early in the morning, I was woken up by Yang Haiyang's phone call.
Shang Muxiao blocked the contact information of his father and his sister, so that no one could find him. If something happened, he could only contact him indirectly by calling me through Yang Haiyang.
"What's the matter?" I was still awake, and my voice was hoarse.
The egg yolk fell asleep at his feet for some reason, and now he opened his eyes alertly when he heard the movement.
Shang Muxiao hugged my waist, buried his face in my abdomen, moved his body, and showed signs of soberness.
"That's it..." Yang Haiyang considered for a moment and explained the ins and outs of the matter.
The foundation that manages Mei Zixun's works, while maintaining and inventorying the paintings, accidentally discovered a new oil painting that has never been published and unknown to the public after an original oil painting.
Since the content of the oil painting involves the privacy of the merchants, whether it can be exhibited or not, and how to deal with it in the future, we need to negotiate together, so... The president of the foundation invited three merchants to come to the location of the foundation at one o'clock in the afternoon to discuss the future of this painting together.
