On the day of Li Lu's burial, I went back to Lin Yuan, Lin Wangshu went back to his hometown, but Lan Wan was there.
This time, she and Xiaomu got along better and better when she came back this time. Sister Lan cooked a large table of meals at home, and it was like a New Year's Eve.
Lan San is also eating, because a few uncles are hard to come by, and the whole family is naturally chatting and asking questions. In fact, I am quite willing to enjoy this chatter time, it is easy Reduce the sense of alienation from the environment and people.
"How about it, when are you looking for a partner?" My uncle picked up a large piece of fish and put it in my bowl, "The boss is not too young, and he has a child."
"Don't talk about it, they decide what to do with the child." Lan Wan took over.
I took a sip of the wine in front of me and said to them, "It doesn't matter, I can take good care of him."
My uncle glanced at Lan Wan and wanted her to persuade me. Lan Wan smiled and said, "Let him go."
"What about Lan San?" I asked casually while helping Xiaomu pick the fishbone.
Speaking of this little uncle's anger, he pointed at Lan San who was eating chicken legs: "I don't know, looking at his virtue, asking him to go on a blind date is like killing him."
"How about that, Lan San, on your terms, if you go out and mess around for a year or two, you won't be able to find any good girls." I made a fuss on purpose to make them look away.
"What am I doing, who am I provoking?" Lan San muttered.
The uncle patted him: "Don't say who you are!"
"Ah, what, eh, cousin, did you bring the clothes and game consoles that I left at your house? Where are you?"
I said, "It's all in the box next to the sofa."
So he put down his chopsticks and ran for his life to find those things.
"It's so big, and it's still so unstable." My uncle frowned and said.
I let out a long sigh of relief, and finally made up my mind.
After dinner, Xiao Mu and her aunts and uncles stayed in the living room to watch TV, and I went to Lan Wan's room. Her room was unexpectedly clean, with nothing on the table, like a house where no one lives.
She sat on the rocking chair by the bed and I lay down on the sofa on the other side, and she asked me, "Do you hate me?"
I asked her back, "What about you? Have you ever hated me because of my father for a moment in all these years?"
Lan Wan sat up, stared out the window like a memory, and finally took a deep breath and answered me firmly: "No, never. I only hate myself, and I didn't make the right choice when I was young. You are smarter than me and your father in this regard."
She got up from the rocking chair, walked slowly to me, squatted down, and touched my face. Her movements were a bit clumsy, as if she wasn't very used to being close to me, and I wasn't very used to her temperature.
She withdrew her hand and said lightly: "I have not done anything for a mother's identity for many years, so I can't learn to be a loving mother in the future. I owe you, I can't pay, but fortunately you have grown up strong. Do whatever you want in the future, as long as you think it is right."
I feel like a butterfly seems to have landed in my heart.
Reaching out, catching the hands like a butterfly, smiling back to her: "Thank you, Mom."
The next morning, I was woken up by a loud noise.
Wearing pajamas and rubbing my eyes, I opened the door and saw that my aunts and uncles had already packed up and got up, and Lin Wangshu had also returned from his hometown. At this time, he was leaning on crutches and yelled at someone at the door angrily. .
"Get out! My Lin family doesn't welcome random people in! Get out!"
That person is Qin Lang.
I was in a hurry to go down, when I saw Lan Wan come out, took Qin Lang's hand, brought him in from outside, and said to Lin Wangshu, "I asked him to come."
"You, what did you ask him to do?" Lin Wangshu was a little exasperated.
I rushed in front of Qin Lang, like an eagle protecting its young, and shielded Qin Lang from Lin Wangshu's anger.
Maybe it was my behavior that irritated him so much that blue veins burst out on his forehead.
At this time, Qin Lang moved me to the side, stood up, and said, "Lin Xian, I don't mind, sooner or later I will come to see my uncle and aunt. Today is just right."
His attitude was very correct, he held my hand seriously towards Lin Wangshu, and said loudly: "Uncle, Lin Xian and I are already together, so I hope that even if you don't support, don't destroy us again. ."
These words exploded in Lin Yuan, and I saw all the uncles and aunts change their faces. Lan San covered his face and couldn't bear to look at it, while Lan Wan was very calm.
"Absolutely impossible!" Lin Wangshu was angry, and the crutches banged on the ground, "You get out of here immediately! From now on, you are not allowed to see Linmu again!"
Qin Lang held my hand tightly: "I'm sorry uncle, I absolutely can't do this."
"I don't care if you can do it or not! I tell you, this is the son of my Lin family. If I say no, it is absolutely impossible!"
Lin Wangshu pointed at me with trembling fingers, and continued to vent his anger, "I tell you, if you still recognize me as a father, you should make it clear to him today and break it up for me! When I can still talk to you properly, Just be obedient to me, or even if I lock you in handcuffs in Lin Yuan, you won't even want to be with this person!"
His face was white with anger, as if the words had used up all the breath in his chest.
Such a scene is a bit like being caught by Lin Wangshu, but now I am more confident, and Lin Wangshu is much weaker.
With so many eyes on me in the room, everyone held their breath, waiting for my reaction. I felt my breath start to thicken and the air started to freeze.
I always have to say something to break the pedantic atmosphere of this forest garden for decades, like old roots soaked in rainwater.
So I grabbed Qin Lang's hand and looked back at Lin Wangshu without compromise: "I love him, I won't let go."
At this time, I found that Qin Lang's pulse was beating so fast that I could feel it through the clasped hands. We looked at each other, and the bottom of our eyes were slightly red.
Lin Wangshu seemed to have been slashed in the head by a thunderbolt, opened his eyes wide, took off his glasses from the bridge of his nose tremblingly, and stared at me with the same eyes that he had known me on the first day, and clenched the cane in his hand. I even thought he was going to lift up and hit me the next moment.
Finally, he calmly said, "I don't agree to—"
"I promise!"
Such a cold reply broke the current confrontation, Lan Wan stood up and walked to Lin Wangshu. LC
