My mother immediately felt that the situation was not good, and quickly came to mediate, "Stop arguing, now is not the time to dwell on this, let's deal with the 'see you on Monday' matter first, and I won't care how you argue later, okay?" "
My dad was holding back a mouthful of anger as if he was holding a mouthful of blood, and his expression was unusually gloomy. I already felt guilty for saying the wrong thing. If my mother hadn't changed the subject, I guess my dad would have slapped me in the face again, and maybe even more. He was so angry that he severed ties with me.
The living room suddenly became quiet, and Liang Sheng saw this and said, "Uncle and auntie, don't worry, I will handle this matter naturally. As for Yanyan and I, I hope you can calm down and give us a chance. Yanyan is a good girl. I don’t want to let her down, and I don’t want to leave her alone. If you are worried that I will hurt her, I can send her back to you, and when this matter is over, I will take her back.”
"No." My dad refused without hesitation and said directly: "Shen Yan, you should resign for me now. Yuan Sheng should not go there in the future. I will find a new job for you."
I can understand my dad’s fear of me getting hurt, but I really can’t accept his arrangement, especially my job. I looked at him and answered without thinking: “I won’t resign! Dad, I know you It’s good for me, but I’ve grown up, can I choose the life I want? If you interfere with me so domineeringly, what’s the difference between me and a puppet?”
My mother knew that my father and I's tempers would continue to develop at this rate, and we would quarrel even more fiercely. She advised me not to do it, so she simply ran over and pushed Liang Sheng out, half pulling her, "You go back first, this is We'll handle our family matters ourselves. As for that, if you need any help, just let me know. I'm sorry."
Liang Sheng pushed the door open and looked at me worriedly. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but my mother pushed him out and slammed the door.
As soon as Liang Sheng left, my father's anger suddenly rose, "Do you know what is the most important thing to a woman? At the age of twenty-five, even if it is thirty, you will never do it twice in your life. Thing, you just rashly gave yourself to him. Do you know what kind of person he is? Do you know what his family situation is like? Do you think it is legitimate for him to admit that you are his girlfriend? I won’t judge. How is he like a person? Just talking about his family and status, how much he has no control over. The more successful a man is, the harder it is for you to be happy. If you stay with him, you will suffer a lot in the future. I say you are For your own good, if you are a son, I don’t care who you spend the night with, but you are a girl, and girls should know how to keep themselves clean."
My mother also echoed a few words, saying that I really shouldn't. I know this is their bottom line and their principles, but I can also be confused and insincere. When I was with Liu Nanhao in the past, I did have the same idea as them. I would never hand over precious things casually. But when I was with Liang Sheng, I was shaken. I finally crossed the line. At this time, I was like Adam and Eve who secretly ate the forbidden fruit. Even if I was sent to the eighteenth level of hell, I would have nothing to say.
After Liang Sheng left, I sat on the sofa and cried, tears streaming down my face without making any sound. I'm not angry at my parents for their wrong education, but because they openly opposed me and Liang Sheng. No matter how big the storm or the pain, I want to stay with Liang Sheng even if Liang Mohua doesn't approve of me now. Yuan Sheng doesn’t recognize me, but as long as he and I work together, sooner or later we will move everyone.
I believe that persistence always pays off.
After my dad finished speaking, he walked to the kitchen, lit a cigarette, and didn't come out for a long time. The smell of smoke filled the entire narrow space, choking me and making me cough.
My mother sat down next to me, took out a tissue to wipe my tears, and whispered to me: "Although mother does not object to you and Liang Sheng being together, your father is right. Now that Liang Mohua is back, he will definitely Interfering with you and Liang Sheng, you are both still young. Even if he is willing to fight his father for you now, don't you feel that a marriage without the blessing of your parents is incomplete? Besides, what guarantee can you give that Liang Sheng will not do it one day? Are you shaken? By then you will have passed your best years and you will be old and yellow. How can you marry into a good family?"
I was sobbing and wanted to speak, but couldn't.
My mother continued to hand me a tissue, "Don't blame your father. He is a man and naturally sees more clearly than we do. Moreover, he has been in contact with Liang Mohua and knows much more than us. There is a reason why he objects. , you should understand your father more."
I took a deep breath and nodded. Of course I can understand him, but that doesn't mean I will abandon my persistence and blindly comply with his wishes.
Parents hope to use their harsh advice to avoid the setbacks we may endure in the future. Obedient children may give up on their chosen path because of this. But I can be considered a rebel. No matter what, I hope to complete my own path. Let's leave the setbacks and sufferings that we may encounter until we encounter them in the future. I will not change the present that I insist on at will because of the future that has not happened.
Because I hadn’t eaten breakfast yet, my mother was afraid that I was starving, so she took me downstairs to eat. My father had been sitting on the sofa in the living room smoking since he came out of the kitchen, his head lowered with a solemn expression, and he didn’t scold me. He didn't get angry anymore, he just smoked one cigarette after another.
I didn’t have much appetite, so I ate something casually with my mother at the wonton shop in the community. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Liang Sheng sitting there, with two bowls of wontons placed on the dining table in front of him, looking extremely lonely, with a terrifying expression on his face.
"Mr. Liang?" My mother said in surprise.
Liang Sheng saw us looking like we were finally waiting for me, and said quickly: "Sit down quickly, the wontons are already ordered for you, eat them while they're hot."
He didn't say anything or ask anything. He just said these words. I almost burst into tears of disappointment, but the aunt from the Chaos Store came out to speak for her: "Oh, sit here and wait for two or three hours. I've already changed more than a dozen bowls of Chaos. Girl, you don't want to torment people like this. This guy is pretty good."
My mother gave Liang Sheng a meaningful look and said nothing. Liang Sheng and I looked at each other. He raised his hand as if he wanted to wipe my tears. Since my mother was there, he just smiled and said, "Eat quickly." Then he tilted his head and said to my mother: "Auntie, what kind of stuffing do you want? I'll order you another one."
Although my mother refused, her tone was obviously much better.
I held the spoon, tears rolled into the wonton, took a breath, and said, "You've been sitting here waiting for me?"
Liang Sheng nodded without looking at me.
"How did you know I would come? What if I went to another store?" I asked him in a low voice.
Liang Sheng smiled nonchalantly: "You like to eat some soup and water when you are in a bad mood. I also have the attitude of giving it a try."
"If I haven't come, when will you wait?" I couldn't hold back the tears any longer, and they fell in large chunks.
It felt awkward for my mother to sit aside, but she couldn't let me and Liang Sheng be alone at this time. If my father found out, she would also be seated. Although my mother usually makes the decision at home, when it comes to serious matters, my mother still listens to my father. My father is usually afraid of my mother, but at critical moments, my mother does not dare to disobey my father at all.
Liang Sheng took out a tissue and handed it to me, then changed the subject: "Eat something first, don't think about this. I'm not waiting for you to see you cry. How can I leave with peace of mind if you do this for a while."
I took the tissue from him and asked like a child: "Are you leaving? Where are you going?"
Liang Sheng switched the wonton in front of him to mine, and said with a fake smile: "Of course I'm going to deal with that matter. Don't think too much about it first. Just try to appease your father. After this matter is dealt with, I'll do it again." Explain it to him properly."
My mother then interjected: "Her dad has a bad temper. Even if this thing hadn't happened, he would still be against you. Hey, although I think you are very good, but after all, you are Liang Mohua's son. You are a high-ranking person. Yanyan in our family has no scheming intentions. I will suffer a lot from being with you. I don’t object to your affairs but I don’t support them either. It’s up to you.”
