Chapter Thirty-Seven: Ni's father chats with his son
On the way home, Ni Jiacheng kept thinking about why Xu Huimin must still be unhappy about what happened in the coffee shop last week. Xu Huimin must be very angry, obviously I, Ni Jiacheng, are chasing her, why do I still go behind her back to promise my family to go on a blind date with another woman, this kind of thing will be very angry if any girl knows about it. What should I do? What should I do to make Hui Min accept me? Ni Jiacheng is now full of regret that he shouldn't have gone to meet that Aunt Li's niece. Thinking about it, Ni Jiacheng slapped himself and said to himself: "Why am I so unproductive? I should fight for my love in front of my parents, and don't agree to the blind date they arranged for me." I should think of a way to get my parents to accept Hui Min. However, the most important thing now is to get Hye-min to forgive me, accept my pursuit of her, and promise to be my girlfriend. ”
"Chengcheng, you're back!" Ni's mother saw that her son was back, so she called her wife, who was sitting in the living room watching TV, to eat. Ni's mother saw that her son was buried in eating and didn't speak, so she rubbed her wife with her elbow, and then glanced at her wife.
Father Ni immediately understood what his wife meant, he looked at Ni Jiacheng and cleared his throat, "Chengcheng, why are you so quiet today? Tell me and your mother what happened today?"
After Ni Jiacheng glanced at his father and mother, he continued to bury his head in eating. Ni's mother and Ni's father looked at each other, and Ni's mother took a bite to eat, "Chengcheng, what kind of eyes are you looking at your parents? It seems that your parents owe you something." ”
Ni Jiacheng looked at his mother and said impatiently, "Mom, can you let me be quiet for a while?"
Ni's mother looked at Ni Jiacheng and suddenly asked angrily: "Are you still angry with your mother about what happened in the coffee shop last weekend?" Let me tell you, if you want to talk to that Anhui girl just about falling in love and not marrying her mother, you will not object, but if you have true feelings for her and are determined to marry her home, this mother will not agree. ”
After listening to his mother's words, Ni Jiacheng was very unhappy, "Mom, what's wrong with the Anhui girl? The Anhui girl is gentle and virtuous! Dad, Mom, don't be so prejudiced against the Anhui girl, okay?"
"Son, I didn't tell your mother that Anhui girls are bad, I don't want you to marry a foreign daughter-in-law, even if the girl you said is from Hunan and Beijing, I don't agree with your mother. Chengcheng, I have told your mother many times that our family does not want the daughter-in-law you will marry in the future to be from other places. Ni's father said.
Ni Jiacheng put down the dishes and chopsticks, "Dad, Mom, I don't understand, why can't our family marry a foreign girl as a daughter-in-law? Can you tell me the reason? Don't tell me that foreign daughters-in-law are not good to communicate, and local girls are also good These reasons, love is regardless of region and age, the most important thing is that two people love each other and get along, this is the point." I don't want my future marriage to be because of the factors involved in my family, because I want to meet some of my family's ideas, and I will live with a woman I don't like at all. Because, you are satisfied with this kind of married life, but I am not happy. Have you considered my feelings?"
Father Ni looked at his son and was silent for a while, "Son, marriage is not as simple as you think, and you don't have to completely veto the opinions of adults, your mother and I are both from here." ”
"You keep telling me that I'm an adult now, not a child, and don't always impose some of your ideas on me. After Ni Jiacheng finished speaking, he walked directly to his room, and then, closing the door, he lay on the bed alone in a daze.
Seeing this, Ni's father put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand and walked towards Ni Jiacheng's room. Ni's father approached Ni Jiacheng's door, knocked on the door, and heard that there was no movement in the room, so he knocked on the door again, "Chengcheng, Chengcheng, open the door." You don't open the door again, Dad comes in directly. ”
Ni's father opened his son's door and saw his son lying on the bed ignoring himself, Ni's father approached his son's bed and lifted the quilt, "Chengcheng, do you tell your father that you are dating that girl from Anhui?"
Ni Jiacheng looked at his father and sat up, "Dad, don't guess, people haven't agreed to be my girlfriend yet!"
"So you're going to chase her?"
Ni Jiacheng hesitated for a while, looked at his father and said, "Dad, why do you and your mother insist that you and your mother disagree with me to find a foreign girl to be my daughter-in-law? ”
Ni's father patted Ni Jiacheng's shoulder, "Chengcheng, our family is such a baby as you, you have not left us half a step since you grew up until now, and the longest time you have been away from home is when you were in college, but you also studied in Shanghai, and you basically went home once a week during your college years, and the longest time you left home in my image was a month." How happy your mom was when you came home that time. You don't know how many times your mom cried about what she thought about that month. ”
Ni Jiacheng smiled, "Dad, Mom, is this the case? Two of my college roommates are outsiders, and they basically come home on long vacations, and their parents don't think about their children as much as their mothers?"
"Son, maybe other people's parents are more exaggerated than your mother? It's just that other people's parents didn't tell their children. Chengcheng, do you know that when your mother gave birth to you, she was closed from the ghost gate. Your mother is not in good health, and she suffered a lot when she was pregnant with you. Your mother reacted a lot during her pregnancy with you, she had morning sickness every day for a few months, and she vomited when she ate anything, I felt distressed when I looked at it, and I advised your mother not to force yourself to eat if it was really uncomfortable. But your mother forced herself to eat, and your mother said that her health was not good, and in order for you to grow up healthily, you must eat and vomit. When your mother gave birth to you, because her physique was not very good, and your head was very big when you were born, the doctor recommended a caesarean section, but your mother insisted on a smooth delivery, which eventually led to heavy bleeding. After your mother was discharged from the hospital, she told me that in the future, our son should not marry a girl who is too far away as a daughter-in-law, because your mother does not want you to leave her for a long time for other women in the future. Your mother is even more worried that you will go to other places for your daughter-in-law in the future, and at that time, she may not be able to see you for a year and a half. Your mother doesn't want the baby she bought with her life to be too far away from her, and she doesn't want to see each other for too long. It is said that the son married his daughter-in-law and forgot his mother, and your mother is very worried that over time, you don't want her anymore. ”
Ni Jiacheng asked suspiciously: "Dad, then why don't you agree with me marrying a foreign girl as a daughter-in-law?"
Father Ni touched Ni Jiacheng's head and smiled, "Because your mother doesn't agree, I don't agree!"
"Why? Dad, you don't have a position of your own, do you?"
"You know, when your mother married me, I was poor. In order to marry me, your mother will follow me despite the opposition of her family. Chengcheng, do you know that a lot of your mother's dowry back then was bought by your mother with her hard-earned money. After your mother married me, I swore that Ni Deming would treat my wife Zhang Ziqin well in this life and try not to make her angry. So, your mother doesn't want you to marry a foreign daughter-in-law, and I don't want to. What I'm most afraid of in my life is seeing your mother sad and sad, so, Chengcheng, you can't marry that girl from Anhui. Ni's father explained.
"Dad, what if that Anhui girl didn't think about going back to develop, she just wanted to live with me in Shanghai, and she was willing to live with you and my mother?
"Even if people tell you that now, who knows what she will think in the future? ”
Ni Jiacheng looked at his father and smiled helplessly, "Dad, you make it impossible for me to communicate with you!" Dad, if you insist on saying this, even if I marry a local girl in the future, there is no guarantee that I will work and live in Shanghai for the rest of my life? Maybe in the future, for some reason, I will still leave Shanghai to support my family in other places?"
Father Ni sighed, "This is really a big deal." Chengcheng, what is the girl's condition, and how are there brothers and sisters at home?"
"Dad, do you think your son is investigating the household registration? Your son hasn't asked anyone about the family? After all, the girl is not my girlfriend yet, so it's not appropriate for me to ask so many questions. However, this girl is quite good, at least very independent. A person who leaves her hometown to work and live in Shanghai shows that she is adaptable, and she can cook and do housework. Ni Jiacheng looked at his father, was silent for a while, and asked cautiously: "Dad, I mean what if, if I insist on being with this Anhui girl? ”
Father Ni thought for a while, "Son, if you really like this girl, if you insist on being with this girl, your mother and I can't do anything about you." After all, now that you're older, your mother and I can't control you anymore. But, Chengcheng, Dad has a request, that is, before you and this girl confirm their relationship, you find an opportunity for me to meet with her and have a chat. Dad wants to have a general understanding of her, and Dad doesn't want you to really marry her and your mother in the future, so Dad wants to check you and your mother in advance, which is also for your happiness. ”
Ni Jiacheng looked at his father, patted his father's shoulder, shook his head, and said with a smile: "Dad, it is usually the mother-in-law who makes such a request, and you, the daughter-in-law of your father-in-law, have to meet others before you enter the door, don't frighten other girls." However, Dad, I promise you that before you confirm your relationship with her, I will definitely let you see her, and you will definitely like her when you meet her. ”
"Chengcheng, we've been talking for so long, and you haven't told your father what the name of this girl is?"
"Dad, her name is Xu Huimin. The slowly rising Xu, the intelligent Hui, and the agile Min. ”
"Xu Huimin?" Father Ni was silent for a while, "Well, this name is good, it must be a virtuous, smart, sensitive, and understanding girl." ”
At this time, Ni's mother shouted in the living room: "Wife, Deming, what are you doing? ”
When Ni's father heard Ni's mother's order, he immediately walked towards the kitchen.
