227. Are you looking forward to my early death?
Tang Xiao wanted to break free at first, but the breath between the other party's lips and teeth made her unable to resist. She still loves this man after all. Even if her heart doesn't want to admit it, her body will give her most honest answer.
At the end of the long kiss, Cheng Lie still hugged her and refused to let go, the two of them touched their eyelashes face to face, Tang Xiao's heartbeat was a little disordered, she tried to turn her eyes away, but she couldn't.
Cheng Yeol's eyebrows, Cheng Yeol's eyes, Cheng Yeol's nose, Cheng Yeol's mouth...... Her outline was deeply engraved in her mind, and at this moment, she just wanted to look at him like that.
"Alright, it's time for me to go to work. Cheng Lie said in a deep laughing voice.
Hearing the word "work", Tang Xiao was stunned for a moment and said, "If you say that, I will have the illusion that you are just an ordinary office worker from 9 to 5." β
Cheng Lie touched Tang Xiao's head and said, "I'll be back in the evening." β
There will be no missions in the near future, and he is confident that he will come back every night to accompany her.
Tang Xiao looked into Cheng Lie's eyes and asked, "Cheng Lie, if I say, I hope you are just an ordinary office worker from 9 to 5, would you be willing to give up your current job for me?"
Cheng Lie was slightly stunned for a moment, and then said, "Xiaoxiao, if you want to hear a positive answer, I can answer you honestly, no." β
Tang Xiao's heart sank, as early as when she spoke, she had already guessed what kind of answer he would give, but she still asked him with a hint of inexplicable luck, but when he said it himself, she finally couldn't help but show a bitter smile.
Tang Xiao, Tang Xiao, aren't you asking for yourself?
Do you think that if you can give up for him, she can give up for you?
She is still too naΓ―ve, she almost forgot that in the eyes of most people in this country, it is a matter of course for women to make sacrifices for the sake of their families, even if it is to give up the job that has been hard studied for more than ten years, and give up the dream of growing up from childhood - what is this? There will always be people who say that as a woman, it is enough to teach her husband and children at home, only the husband and children are the most important thing for a woman, and the family is the ultimate destination of a woman.
If a woman is not willing to make all the sacrifices she can for the most important husband and children in her life, then she is still a virtuous woman?
Yes, in this country, it has been like this for thousands of years, and women have always lived like this, with humble and flattering smiles on their faces. It was as if everything she had done was not a great sacrifice, but something she had to do, and even so, she had to please her husband, who was her heaven and her pillar, and she had to please her children, who were the continuation of her life. Women, sacrificing everything, still have to please the family.
No one cares, what a woman gives in the family.
"I see. Tang smiled and said lightly, "You go." β
Cheng Lie quietly glanced at Tang Xiao and said, "Don't think too much." β
The ancients often said that illness comes like a mountain, and this sentence is also very suitable for Ren Feilin.
Ren Feilin was only a little unwell, but she didn't expect that after lying in bed for two days, she couldn't even get out of bed. The whole person was lying on the bed as pale as paper, and his speech was dying, and he was sick.
Tang Xiao, as Cheng Lie's wife and Ren Feilin's sister-in-law, was entrusted by Cheng's mother to take care of Ren Feilin, and stayed by Ren Feilin's side every day.
Ren Feilin woke up groggily, and saw a figure sitting next to the bed in a hazy way, a soft smile suddenly appeared on her bloodless face, and she called softly in her mouth, "Brother Lie......"
Tang Xiao looked at her pitiful and ridiculous appearance, and really hoped that she could turn into a lie to comfort and comfort her, but she was a woman in the end and couldn't fool people.
I had to stand up and say, "Cheng Lie hasn't come back in the army for the past two days. β
When he left that morning, he said that he would come back in the evening, but in the end he still broke his promise. Tang Xiao didn't bother to call to investigate, what could he do if he was angry? That was his job, and for Cheng Lie, the most important identity was not a husband, but a soldier.
Ren Feilin looked at Tang Xiao steadily, her blurred vision gradually became clear, where was the fierce brother she dreamed of, it was clearly the Tang Xiao who she hated to the bone and wanted to peel off her skin and bones.
"You...... You ......" Ren Feilin began to gasp as soon as she spoke, and her chest continued to rise and fall, "You...... Why are you here? Are you, are you hoping that I will die soon? I ...... If you die, there will be no one with you...... I'm fighting with you, brother!"
Tang Xiao wanted to laugh, but in the end he couldn't help it, thinking about saying something that didn't stimulate Ren Feilin, but after thinking about it for a long time, Ren Feilin saw that she didn't speak, and automatically defaulted to Tang Xiao's silence as disdain for herself, and she became even more angry.
She struggled to sit up from the bed, but as soon as her upper body lifted a little, she was weakly back up.
Lifting the hand with the hanging needle with difficulty, she pointed at Tang Xiao and scolded, "You...... You'd better not be complacent, Tang Xiao, I swear, I'll be Feilin...... I'm always going to ...... one day I'm going to get you out of this house!"
Tang Xiao said calmly, "Don't be so excited, too many emotional ups and downs are not good for your health, take care of your illness, and wait until you get better." β
Ren Feilin punched the cotton, her face was extremely ugly, and she was about to say something, when Chengmu pushed open the door and walked in from outside.
"Feilin, are you awake?" Cheng's mother looked concerned, didn't look at Tang Xiao, walked to Ren Feilin's side and sat down, held Ren Feilin's skinny fingers with extremely meticulously maintained white and tender hands, and said distressedly, "Look, it's only been a few days, and I've lost weight again, and I don't even have any meat on my hands...... Hey, Fei Lin, how can you rest assured that you are called Aunt Cheng?"
Ren Feilin's biological mother didn't care enough about Ren Feilin, and it was obvious from the fact that she didn't come to get married these days to see Ren Feilin. On the contrary, she became a mother, and she was more like a mother to Ren Feilin.
Facing Cheng Lie's mother and her future mother-in-law, Ren Feilin put away the anger and hideousness when she smiled at Tang just now, and replaced it with a pitiful and crying face, like a small white flower with beads and tears in the cold wind, which instantly made people feel a sense of care for her.
"Aunt Cheng...... I'm really sorry...... It's all about Fei Lin's bad feelings, what kind of illness is good, and it makes everyone worry about it......" Ren Fei Lin said in a weak voice, but she tried to smile on her bloodless face.
Tang Xiao simply admired Ren Feilin's acting skills, if she had been born twenty years earlier, all the heroines of Grandma Qiong Yao would have been contracted by Ren Feilin.
"Fei Lin, what did you say, what are you polite to Aunt Cheng? Everyone in our family is your family, Fei Lin, what is the difference between you and Meng Meng in my eyes? Don't worry, Fei Lin, as long as Aunt Cheng is here, I will take good care of you when I become a family, even if one day in the future, when your Aunt Cheng is gone, you still have your brother Lie and Uncle Cheng, right?" Cheng's mother said gently.
Ren Feilin listened to these words heartwarmingly, as if she had taken a dose of heart booster, she was instantly relieved, and her pair of water-cut eyes were also filled with tears.
As if unintentionally, she quietly glanced at Tang Xiao, who was standing behind Cheng's mother, and seeing Tang Xiaomuran's expression, Ren Feilin became even more proud.
There were just three of them present, who dared to say the words of becoming a mother, wasn't she also saying it to Tang Xiao?
She wanted to tell Tang Xiao that Ren Feilin was covered by her, as long as she lived, Ren Feilin would exist in the family, and even if she died, she would entrust Ren Feilin to Cheng Lie.
Although Tang Xiao is not very smart, she is not stupid, she still understands the meaning of becoming a mother.
But so what? She knew in her heart that no matter how much Cheng's mother helped Ren Feilin, Cheng Lie would not fall in love with Ren Feilin.
Can Cheng's mother still force Cheng Lie and Ren Feilin to marry?
She couldn't.
If she had such a great deterrent to Cheng Lie, Cheng Lie would not be Cheng Lie.
Cheng Lie treats his family with respect and love, but he is not stupid and filial to his mother.
Therefore, although Ren Feilin is abrasive, Tang Xiao does not really regard her as an opponent who will snatch Cheng Lie away.
A person who can make a woman a rival in love, at the very least, be a woman who has a place in the hearts of men and has the love of men and women.
Ren Feilin didn't know about Tang Xiao's mental activities, and when she saw Tang Xiao's wooden face, she only thought that Tang Xiao had been hit by her mother, and she was so happy that she even had a trace of blood on her pale face.
"Aunt Cheng, you are closer to Fei Lin than your own mother, no matter what happens in the future, Fei Lin will definitely serve Aunt Cheng for the rest of her life and take care of you like her own mother. Ren Feilin said softly, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, and she really couldn't have been more sincere.
Cheng's mother really ate this, reached out and stroked Ren Feilin's hair, and said pityingly, "Silly child, where do you need your Aunt Cheng to take care of, you, don't worry about anything, take care of your body first, okay?"
"Well, okay, Aunt Cheng. Ren Feilin nodded, with a well-behaved smile on her face.
Cheng's mother smiled warmly: "Don't you know, the tea party in the afternoon these days is missing you, and the big guys are all worried about it, and asked me if Liezi bullied you, I said how could Liezi bully Firin? β
Ren Feilin covered her mouth and smiled with a "poof", and before she could speak, suddenly a cool voice interjected, "Mom, are you beautifying my brother less, when you were a child, didn't you tell your eldest brother that without Fei Lin, his mother would not have the life of his eldest brother, let the eldest brother know how to repay him, how to treat Meng Meng to Ren Feilin, if anything goes wrong, Ren Feilin will definitely not be able to spare my eldest brother, can my eldest brother be so nervous about her?"
