Chapter 222: Truth Translation
On Saturday, Qin Yi and Chang Qi returned home after visiting her father. In fact, he still has a lot of plans for his students in the future, not only Chang Qi, Zhang Yali and Li Sisi, but also the parents of other classmates, he also plans to visit them one by one, observe their follow-up situation and then make adjustments.
However, Sunday is his own time, and today he and Xia Yuxin are going to visit her mother.
"So, are you ready? to meet the woman who may be his future mother-in-law?" Xia Yuxin laughed and teased when she drove to his house downstairs to pick him up, but her expression was a little unnatural, obviously deliberately adjusting the atmosphere.
"Don't say that, I'll be nervous. Qin Yi smiled bitterly and sat on the co-pilot.
"Then think of her as a patient. Xia Yuxin sighed and said, Qin Yi thought about it and replied: "Actually, I'm not sure if she has mental illness, there's nothing wrong with what she did, it's just a difference in her outlook on life." ”
"Then why do you want to see her?" Xia Yuxin asked puzzled, turning the car around and rushing out.
"For you, of course. Qin Yi said as a matter of course, Xia Yuxin's face flushed: "So direct?"
"Oh, I mean to heal the shadow of your childhood. Qin Yi explained, "You see, in fact, your mother knows very well what she wants, and she also knows what she sacrifices, but you don't know her thoughts. ”
"So?" Xia Yuxin continued to ask, and Qin Yi said patiently, "So, I took you over this time, hoping that you can understand your mother's true thoughts." I don't think you really need her to apologize or anything, you just want to hear what she really thinks, right? You want to know the answer to 'that question,' right?"
"Hmm......" Xia Yuxin nodded, and then glared at Qin Yi with some complaint, "You always know other people's inner thoughts so well, I don't know whether to hate you or like you." ”
Along the way, the two chatted a little, mainly because Xia Yuxin learned about the situation at home.
"Do your parents know that we are on a blind date?" Xia Yuxin asked, Qin Yi was stunned, shook his head and said, "I don't know, because I think the two of us should get along normally, not a blind date." ”
Xia Yuxin's face appeared with a sweet smile with a hint of gloom: "When you go back, remember to tell them that you are on a blind date with a school colleague, don't let them think that you are only on a blind date with Teacher An." ”
"Well, okay. Qin Yi swallowed his saliva and replied, Xia Yuxin continued to smile: "You can show them my photo, you shouldn't have it yet, right? I'll send you a good-looking one later, don't take out the kind of casual photo to show others." ”
"Yes. Qin Yi couldn't help but want to laugh, but Xia Yuxin immediately became a little worried: "The situation in my family ...... Don't talk to your parents just yet. ”
Qin Yi pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Have there ever been any man's parents who rejected you because of your family situation?"
"No, except for you, it has always been me who rejects others, how can anyone dare to refuse me. Xia Yuxin said with a smile, but there was a hint of threat in her tone, "However, at that time, the boy chased me for a long time and didn't agree, so he did take it out and talk about it." said that he didn't dislike me under the conditions of my family, and I kept holding him. ”
"Actually, I don't think it's okay if your parents are divorced, isn't it great to be able to grow up into such a beautiful and knowledgeable girl without father's or mother's love? Qin Yi smiled.
"Well, if only everyone thought the same way as you. Xia Yuxin sighed a little distressedly, "You also know that many people from their parents' generation are more feudal and they are very concerned about this kind of thing. Then there are those wealthy families, who will feel that when they get married, the woman's parents will be divorced and it will be very embarrassing when the banquet is set up, and they will shout that the door is right. ”
"Don't worry, my parents should treat my girlfriend as a benefactor. Qin Yi smiled dryly, "Thank you for that girl for not letting me die alone...... As for their life experience, they shouldn't ask, and even if they do, they just feel sorry for you, they are all very kind people. You can rest assured of that. ”
"Really, that's great. Xia Yuxin covered her mouth and smiled with interest.
"I actually ......got along with a girl for a short time when I returned to China before," Qin Yi said and rolled his eyes, "Basically, my parents are like having an extra daughter, and then swept my son out of the house, and I worked as a domestic servant." ”
"Well, this one can give you extra points. Xia Yuxin smiled and said, "Then why did you break up later?"
"Because I go abroad too often, and then she can't stand the loneliness. Qin Yi held his chin and smiled.
"Green?" Xia Yuxin asked tentatively, Qin Yi shrugged: "How is it possible, you also know that it is difficult for ordinary people to hide their thoughts in front of me." At that time, I could already see that she wanted to cheat behind my back, and she felt that I could give her spiritual comfort so she didn't want to break up with me, but she needed someone to be by her side, so she did have the idea of green me. ”
"What a greedy woman. Xia Yuxin sighed and said, "Obviously, I am already accompanied at the soul level, but I still have to ask for more." Maybe people are so unsatisfied. ”
"Probably. Qin Yi smiled and said, Xia Yuxin pointed to the front: "It's in the villa area in front." ”
Qin Yi glanced at it, being able to afford to live in a villa in this place, he could only say that Xia Yuxin's mother was really rich......
"What does your mother do?" Qin Yi asked in disbelief after getting out of the car, Xia Yuxin grabbed her satchel and replied, "Oh, she used to be a travel experience teacher, and now she has become the president." ”
"Travel Experience Engineer?" This profession made Qin Yi suddenly realize that the so-called tourism experience master is actually a kind of person who develops tourism routes. They travel to various countries under the name of the company and then look for viable travel routes.
To put it bluntly, it is a reasonable public-funded tourism. But this work is not so easy, firstly, it is necessary to be proficient in the language of a certain country, and secondly, this profession is to develop tourist routes, that is, not to take the usual path.
They have to get away from other people and find a more unique travel route that has to have the right places to eat and stay, has to have pleasant scenery, and has to generate reasonable economic benefits, not just to play.
The reason why this profession made Qin Yi suddenly come back to his senses was because now that he thought about it, wasn't this profession very suitable for Tang Xueying?
However, for now, he has to pay attention to Xia Yuxin's mother.
The two came to the door in front of them, Xia Yuxin took a deep breath, and then knocked on the door.
Soon someone came to answer the door, and a soft female voice sounded "Come in", and then the big iron door outside opened, Qin Yi and Xia Yuxin came to the villa, and a woman who looked to be in her thirties was waiting for them in front of the door.
That's right, if Qin Yi didn't know that this woman was Xia Yuxin's mother, he would probably think that this was a woman in her thirties. However, if you extrapolate from Xia Yuxin's youth, I am afraid that she should be at least in her forties, and she may be close to fifty years old.
The skin is very well maintained, although there are some wrinkles on the face, the skin is still very full and shiny, the figure can be seen to have long-term fitness, in addition to the grace of women, there are some faintly visible muscle lines.
In terms of facial features, it is true that Xia Yuxin looks very similar to her mother, basically this woman should be what Xia Yuxin looked like when she was forty or fifty years old. The only difference is that this woman's eyes are Danfeng eyes, which have an indescribable charm, while Xia Yuxin has peach blossom eyes, which seems to be more restrained, which should be her inherited father. is also because of this, Xia Yuxin's appearance is even better.
"Mom......" Xia Yuxin called out a little weakly, as if she didn't dare to look directly into the eyes of the woman in front of her.
"Hmm. The woman simply answered, and then put her eyes on Qin Yi's body.
"Are you the man that my family Xin'er has a crush on?" the woman stretched out her hand to Qin Yi, "I'm her mother, Dong Yulan. ”
"Hello. Qin Yi shook hands with the other party, Dong Yulan looked at Qin Yi with interest, and then smiled meaningfully, "Well, it does have a special taste." My daughter's vision is at least good. ”
As she spoke, Dong Yulan stepped out of the way and motioned for them to enter the door. After closing the door, Dong Yulan pointed to the side and motioned for them to change their shoes, and then said curiously: "I'm a little curious, what's different about you, so that my daughter, who hasn't come to see me for so many years, can come to visit me in person this time?"
"It's nothing, it's just for Yuxin. Qin Yi said with a smile and sat down on the sofa with Xia Yuxin.
"Do you want something to drink?cocktail, carbonated drink, coffee or tea?" Dong Yulan asked, Xia Yuxin shook her head, and Qin Yi replied with a smile: "If it's not troublesome, I want a cup of tea." ”
"Wait a minute. Dong Yulan said, plugged in the electric kettle and started boiling water, then came to Qin Yi and sat down, she stared at his eyes and asked, "You said it was for my daughter, what did you say?"
"You also know that parental divorce can undoubtedly have a serious impact on a child's childhood. Qin Yi replied, "Although Yuxin is very strong and has grown into a kind, sensible and capable girl, this does not mean that this matter has no impact on her. In fact, it had a great impact on her, especially on her emotional side. ”
"Then why did you come to me for?" Dong Yulan hugged her arms, "I won't apologize, I didn't do anything wrong." ”
As she spoke, Dong Yulan glanced at Xia Yuxin, who didn't dare to look at her at all. It's hard to imagine that Xia Yuxin, who is usually so cold and strong, would look like this in front of her mother.
"That's right, you didn't do anything wrong, you apologized. Qin Yi shook his head and smiled, "However, I also know that there are many things where you didn't tell the truth to your daughter. She's here to find an answer, even though you won't tell her the answer because of your personality. So, I'm going to peel off your shell and tell her the truth. Now, let's talk about it briefly, shall we?"
Dong Yulan squinted her eyes and looked at Qin Yi, she was a well-informed woman, she had traveled through many countries, met many people, and had a lot of experience, but the man in front of her gave her a sense of danger, because she couldn't see through this man at all, and in turn, she felt that she seemed to have been seen through by the other party. It made her feel strongly uneasy.
"First of all, I know you lied about a lot of things. Because you are a strong woman, just like your daughter. Speaking of this, Qin Yi looked at Xia Yuxin with a gentle expression, "Yuxin always looks very strong in front of others, and never refuses to show her vulnerability. For example, although you say that you have done nothing wrong, you are actually very guilty about Yuxin, right?"
Xia Yuxin looked at Qin Yi with some surprise, and then looked at her mother.
And Dong Yulan sneered: "Why do you think so?"
"From the time Yuxin entered the door until now, you haven't been on her eye contact for more than two seconds. Qin Yi smiled and said, "Do people turn their eyes away because of fear and anger? No." People only look away because of embarrassment, shyness, and guilt. ”
Saying that, Qin Yi turned to Dong Yulan: "I don't think you will feel embarrassed, right? After all, you must have dealt with many strangers in your past work, not to mention your own daughter." Shy? It's even more unlikely, isn't it? So it could just be because of guilt, and maybe a little bit of regret? You and your daughter feel the same guilt about each other. ”
Qin Yi patted Xia Yuxin on the shoulder: "Yuxin is because she hasn't come to see you for so many years, not because she personally doesn't want to, but because she is worried that it will bring back her father's unbearable past." And you are because you abandoned her for your love, regret not witnessing her growth, and feel guilty for not fulfilling your mother's responsibilities. ”
Speaking of this, Qin Yi happily raised his hand: "So, you mother and daughter can have a chat, I will act as a translator for the two of you and convey what you really want to say to each other." The accuracy rate should be ...... Ninety percent, right?"
