Chapter 10: I Can't Love You
The old lady did what she said, and the hunger strike officially kicked off at noon the next day.
The son and daughter-in-law went into the house three times, and the old lady lay on the bed without moving, threatening to stop talking about everything unless her grandson complied with her wishes.
After Liang Qiuyin entered the house for the fourth time to no avail, she returned to the living room and vented all her negative emotions to her husband Chu Wanzhou: "Mom, what do you mean? Does she think that our family is not enough for relatives and friends to see jokes? Chu Yin, Chu Yin is not an example? Back then, he who wanted to die and live wanted to marry Jiang Changyu, who was poor and white, what did he say about the supremacy of love, but now?" Three days and two heads to go home and complain to me about the troubles brought by the difference in the door, Chu Yin's experience is not enough, and now he wants to toss us Huaisheng to marry a rural woman, which clearly wants Huaisheng to take Chu Yin's future......"
Liang Qiuyin cried as he spoke, Chu Wanzhou naturally disapproved of this marriage, but as a son of man, even if he was dissatisfied, he could only persuade him with good words, and he couldn't disobey his mother too much.
"Originally, Chu Yin's daughter married a poor boy and made the two sisters-in-law's family see all the jokes, but now if Huaisheng marries a rural village girl, then the whole of China will see our Chu family's jokes!"
"What a phoenix and dragon person we Huaisheng are, which woman in Xinghai City is not dreaming of marrying him, why did she let a rural village girl pick up a cheap ......"
"Did you say enough?"
The old lady suddenly walked out of the house with Zhong He's support, "Aren't we Wanzhou also a personable and beautiful man when we are young, why do you let you, a small citizen in the market, take advantage of it?" Liang Qiuyin, the life of a wealthy wife has been too long in the past few decades, I think you have forgotten your original identity, right?"
Liang Qiuyin's face turned pale.
"I wonder if you, a small person in the market, are you more advanced than a village girl?"
"Mom, don't say it, save some face for Qiu Yin. ”
Chu Wanzhou begged in a low voice.
"I saved her face, but I didn't see her save a trace of face for Huahua, she looked down on others, and she didn't want to think about what qualifications she had to look down on?"
The old lady raised her crutches and nodded at the husband and wife: "In the future, Huaisheng's marriage will not allow you two to have any more beaks!"
After the reprimand, he went back to bed and lay down.
Zhong He was incomparably moved for a moment, she was an orphan since she was a child, and she never got a trace of warmth in her adoptive parents' house, this was the first time that someone was so trying to protect her, and she couldn't help but feel guilty.
"Grandma, the twisted melon is not sweet, since everyone doesn't like me, or, forget it, I think I'd better go back, I don't want to see you ......"
Zhong He knew that she was a little emotional at the moment, but she really couldn't bear an old man to make such a big sacrifice for her, the old lady not only didn't eat water and rice, but even stopped the medicine.
"Don't worry, it's okay, I'm sure, Huaisheng will marry you, no one knows my grandson better than me. ”
Night.
Chu Huaisheng returned with a heavy heart, stayed in the living room for a short time, got up and walked towards the old lady's room.
The old lady had already slept, but she had not eaten two meals, and she seemed to have lost a lot of weight.
How could he not know that the old lady's hunger strike was to force him to compromise.
His gaze shifted from the old lady and fell to another place, Zhong He lay beside the old lady, staring at the disgusting face for a long time before he sneered at himself in his heart.
Chu Huaisheng, if you are not the person you love, what does it make if you marry someone?
If this life is destined to live like this, whether it is to marry a wood or a vase, but as long as a person can live comfortably, this marriage is not worthless.
Zhong He woke up suddenly, and found an expressionless man standing next to the bed, thinking of last night's offense, she was slightly startled.
Chu Huaisheng did not make a sound to disturb the old lady's rest, but signaled with his eyes and asked Zhong He to come out with him.
When he arrived at the wine room, Zhong He automatically kept a distance of one meter from him, watched him take out a bottle of 50-degree vodka from the wine cabinet, and drank three glasses in a row as if drinking boiled water, before raising a pair of cold eyes and glaring at her: "It is said that people in the city are scheming, and I think you are not a simple rural person." ”
Zhong He humbly took his toes and pestle the ground: "What do you mean?"
"If you have hands and feet, where you can't be self-reliant, why do you have to rely here?"
The taut heartstrings loosened a little.
She looked up at him and smiled, "You're really kidding...... But who wants to go out and earn a living?"
"It's just money, right? That's easy. ”
Chu Huaisheng's fingers lightly buckled the marble countertop, and a few diamond buttons on the cuffs of the delicate suit shone under the light: "In my place, what can be solved with money has never been a problem." ”
To avoid the next situation where a check would be smashed in her face, Zhong He hurriedly stepped forward and explained: "It's not because of this that I didn't leave." ”
Chu Huaisheng waited for her to continue.
"As I said before, I have a cold sex, and I ......" She paused and lowered her head shyly: "And I look so good, no matter which man I marry in the future, I will definitely pounce on me like a wolf, which is very painful for a person without passion......"
"So to avoid this pain, you decided on me?"
"No, no, no, I'm not entirely thinking about myself, I really think we're very suitable, you see, it's impossible for you not to get married in the future, right? But your cleanliness is so serious, and you are so good-looking, no matter which woman you marry in the future, you will definitely pounce on you like a wolf, is this the result you want to see? Surely not!"
Scold.
Chu Huaisheng sneered sarcastically: "It's really good at breaking, is there something made in heaven and earth next, going deep into the soul?"
"I'm just giving you an example, the two of us combining you with you will do more harm than harm to me. ”
"What do you think marriage is? A long-term meal ticket? I can't love you. ”
"It's okay, it's okay Mrs., you don't have to love me, I don't need you to love, to put it bluntly, all I need is that long-term meal ticket...... For a person with a physical defect like me, love is a burden to me, and there is a huge disparity between you and me, and I am also self-aware, and I will never covet you in any way. ”
Speaking of which, it seems that it is indeed a profitable deal.
Just as Chu Huaisheng was seriously considering it, the other party said coldly: "And...... I may be able to cure your cleanliness fetish. ”
What Zhong He thinks about is that a fastidious person is with a casual and free person, and after a long time, it is inevitable that he will follow casually.
But the person concerned didn't think so, Chu Huaisheng slowly straightened up, propped his hands on the edge of the bar, and asked with a torch-like gaze: "Then according to what you say, do I still have to be courteous and cure your frigidity for you?"
