CHAPTER IX
Zhao Shiyue sat on the tatami mat and waited.
After a while, footsteps sounded, and a middle-aged woman walked in, her expression so serious that it was almost cold.
"Mother. ”
Zhao Shiyue bowed slightly.
The woman, known as "Mother," also sat down. The wrinkle-free face and the exquisite decoration hide the real age.
Aside from the polite movements, it doesn't feel real.
"You're here. ”
"Yes. ”
"How's it going?"
Zhao Shiyue didn't answer immediately, and after pondering for five seconds, she said the answer that she had thought about in a week.
"I still don't think I'm up to the task. ”
"Why?"
"I think it should be inherited by a more suitable her. ”
"But you also know I'm running out of time. ”
"Yes, but I'll do my best to help her. ”
The woman known as "Mother" was silent for a moment and asked solemnly.
"Is it already decided?"
"Yes. ”
"Go and stay with your sister. ”
"Yes. ”
Zhao Shiyue slowly stood up, ready to leave, and when she walked to the door, there was another voice in the room.
"In the last time, I will also try my best to help you, as a mother. ”
"Yes. ”
Zhao Shiyue's response finally had a trace of emotion, a little sad and helpless.
"Yucheng, don't you tell your mother what happened this week? Why are you locked in your room as soon as you get home? I've been worried about you for a week, why can't you be considerate and considerate of me? Are you listening to me, respond, Yucheng? The child's father, you can also talk about your daughter, as soon as she gets home, she will be locked in the room, or she will go outside to the wilderness, and she will not spend much time on studying, what if she can't get into a good university, what if she doesn't get into a good university, if she doesn't get into a good university......"
Tang Yucheng was wearing headphones and playing music in the room, and the volume was turned on to the maximum, although he could still faintly hear a nagging voice or two occasionally, but he was gradually attracted by the comics. If it weren't for the fact that her mother was still standing outside the door, she probably couldn't help but laugh.
"Forget it, forget it, stop for a while, Yucheng, eat. ”
Tang Yucheng's father walked out of the kitchen wearing an apron and persuaded him.
Tang Yucheng's father knocked on the door and found that there was no response inside, so he sent a text message as always, simply writing "It's time to eat".
After receiving this text message in the room, Tang Yucheng also turned off the music, put on his clothes, and walked out slowly.
However, Tang Yucheng was still not let go during the meal time, and her mother kept teaching her.
Tang Yucheng just went in and out of his left ear, and kept responding to the word "um".
At night, Tang Yucheng lay on the bed and sent a message to his new friend Jie Ninglin.
"My mom is so annoying. ”
"It's normal, too. ”
"I don't know where so many words come from"
"Maybe it's overthinking. ”
"Treat me like a kid completely. ”
"This is also a common occurrence. ”
"Anyway, I can't help it one day, I really want to scold her back. ”
"This is also common, but it is always us who suffer in the end by scolding too much. ”
"What do you say? ”
"Economic strength determines the status of the family. ”
"Hehe, it's true. ”
"It's so real that it makes me a little sick. ”
"Haha. Forget it, let's talk about the rest, what comics have you been reading lately?"
"I'm looking at that ......"
"Coming back?"
"Hmm. ”
"Are you going to study?"
"Hmm. ”
"I'll call you when the meal is ready. ”
Knit opened the door and didn't respond.
The knitting home is much quieter than the average family, the mother will occasionally say a joke or two, and the father and daughter are basically working and studying, and it is rare to hear them say a word.
However, the three of them have become accustomed to it, and in essence, they are much more harmonious than some superficially harmonious families.
The mother occasionally went shopping with friends, while the father and daughter spent almost all the time in the room.
Recently, the mother felt that her daughter still had to find a cheerful boyfriend, otherwise she would be out of step with society.
But after thinking about it, the mother still felt that her daughter was too young and it was too early to think about these things.
My mother tinkered in the kitchen for a long time, and finally made a meal, called and asked her husband, but she was still "sorry, I'm working overtime, I can't come back." Such words.
The mother walked to the door of her daughter's room, knocked lightly, and said.
"Daughter, it's time to eat. ”
Knitting took off the headphones, put down the pen, walked out of the door, went to the kitchen to silently fill a small half bowl of rice for himself, and went to the dining table to eat.
Because she knew that her daughter couldn't eat much in one meal, the mother anxiously looked for a topic, but after a few glances at her daughter, she gave up.
Knitting silently finished the small half bowl of rice, washed the dishes and chopsticks, and left, leaving his mother to eat alone.
"Alas~ Forget it, get used to it. ”
In the end, the mother only spit out such self-talk and comforted herself.
*
The doorbell rang, I came out of the kitchen, opened the door of the unit and the door of the house, and sure enough, it was my father who gradually came up.
"The snow and rain are back. ”
Dad said as he walked on the stairs.
"That's right. ”
I said with a smile in my apron.
"I haven't seen you for a week, do you miss me?"
"Absolutely. ”
"By the way, this is a gift for you. ”
"Thank you Dad. ”
"Why don't you go in the door, stand outside the door and start chatting. ”
"It's not like I haven't seen a lot of things in a week, haha. ”
"Alright, come in and eat, I'll wait for you. ”
"Let's go, Xueyu, let's go to dinner together. ”
"I made my dad my favorite dish. ”
"Thank you Xueyu, you thought so thoughtfully. ”
Our family is always laughing, happy every time we eat together, and we talk a lot.
After eating, the three of us quickly packed up our things, and my father continued to talk for a while, and then said that he wanted to take a nap, and after I watched the TV series with my mother for a while, my mother said.
"Xueyu, I'll go to sleep with your father, hmm~ bye. ”
"Eh~"
Mom seemed to realize that something was being said, smiled blushingly, and ran away.
Looking at the empty living room, it seems that there is nothing to do.
Just then, my phone rang suddenly, and I answered the call.
"Hey, what's the matter?"
"I haven't seen you for a month, and you forgot about me in the snowy rain?"
"Ah, it's Rika, I'm sorry. ”
"Isn't the caller ID my name?"
"Sorry, I didn't pay attention to the caller ID. ”
"Don't talk about that, time is pressing, gather at the old place, bye-bye. ”
"That being said, the old place is ......"
"Toot-"
It was clear that the other party had hung up.
It seems that there is no time to be idle.
