Chapter 768: Wishful Thinking
Sending Chu Tianqi home, the driver Xiao Meng entered the house to greet the two old men, sat down for a while and left.
You Chunmei was very happy to see her son come back, and she was sent back by special car, which made her feel even more face-saving.
Chu Tianqi hadn't been home for more than two months, and his mother took his hand and looked back and forth. Looking at it, You Chunmei's eyes turned red, and tears fell.
You Chunmei rubbed her son's hand and muttered: "Dog, you are much thinner, look at how dark your face is, your eye sockets are so deep, you are very tired from work, right? You have to work hard, and you have to pay attention to your own body, can't you go on like this, you must not be tired? If you are tired, we can ...... it."
"You man, when your son doesn't come back, you look forward to it every day. Come back today, you're crying and wiping your tears again, chattering endlessly. Chu Yuliang interrupted his wife's words, "If you really feel sorry for your son, let him rest and rest, and say more happy things, it's true." ”
"you, don't I think about my son, who is like you all day with a cold face, like a wooden man. You Chunmei snatched a sentence from her wife, and said to her son, "Dog, whatever you want to eat, Mom will make it for you." So saying, he went to the outhouse.
Chu Tianqi stopped his mother: "Mom, what time is it? I just had lunch and I'm not hungry." ”
"Yes, it's a bit early. Where did you eat?" You Chunmei looked at her son lovingly, "Did you eat it in the township, isn't that the one who was born after driving is the one in the township?"
Chu Tianqi nodded: "Yes, I ate it in the township, and I ate it with Junqi." ”
You Chunmei glanced at her wife and smiled knowingly: "I just said that my son went to see Miss Xiaoning first, right? Then he turned his head to his son, "Yes, let's look at Miss Xiaoning first, this shows that my son is distressed, and he knows that people who feel sorry for his daughter-in-law are all good men, don't learn from some people." ”
The mother's words not only reveal her appreciation for her son, but also have a hint of eating her daughter-in-law's dry vinegar, and a bit of a hint of squeezing the father with words. Chu Tianqi's face turned red, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.
Chu Yuliang snorted, obviously hearing the meaning of his wife's words, to express his disdain for his wife's words.
"Dog, Miss Xiao Ning is such a good boy. After a while, she came to the house to have a look, and each time she brought a lot of things, and asked what was lacking in the house and what she needed to do. As soon as I entered the door, she either helped me cook on the fire, or asked me for warmth, I decided that this daughter-in-law was the daughter-in-law. How can I find such a good girl? I want to be good-looking, capable, and sensible, it's really hard to find a lantern. Saying that, You Chunmei laughed out loud, "That little fart doesn't look big, but it's fleshy, round, round, and round, and it is designated to give me a big fat grandson." ”
"Here we go again, here we go again. stares at other girls all day long, and looks at everyone hairy, it's really not old. Chu Yuliang grabbed white.
"Old thing, what I said is not right, I see what's wrong? That's my daughter-in-law, I can watch it if I want. You Chunmei said, changing the topic, "Old thing, you can't just look at it, that's disrespectful to the old, you're an old man." ”
"The more I talk about it, the more unreasonable it becomes. Chu Yuliang threw down a sentence and was about to go out on the ground.
You Chunmei stretched out her arm: "Stay honest, where are you going?" The dog finally came back, let's talk about his life's events." ”
Chu Yuliang glanced at his wife, and moved from the edge of the kang to the inside.
Hearing his mother mention Ning Junqi again, Chu Tianqi felt very uncomfortable in his heart, he really had mixed tastes, he didn't know how to answer, and his heart drifted to her.
Seeing her son's stunned distraction, You Chunmei smiled: "Dog, what do you want? Tell me about you and Miss Xiaoning." ”
"Ah, what's the matter?" Chu Tianqi asked vaguely.
You Chunmei patted her son's hand and said, "Dog, I'm dizzy with joy, of course it's your marriage." You see you're not too old, they're all twenty-eight, and they're the same age as you, and their children are all in school. I know that you are a family member and you will get married late, but now you are late enough. If you don't get married, it will be difficult for women to give birth, and the good ones will have to be cut on the stomach to get out.
I asked Miss Xiaoning, she and you are in the same year, the month is August, but I forgot to ask her if it is the solar calendar. If it's a lunar calendar, it's a month older than you, and if it's a solar calendar, it's the same month as you, and it should be July. Our children in the countryside are calculated according to the lunar calendar, and people in the city generally follow the solar calendar, maybe you two are born in one day, you see how good this fate is. I think you can ask her again, it's best to put the birthday eight characters on it, I'll find someone to show it, and give it and the genus. This is also an old reason, in fact, as long as the two of them have a temper, they will definitely be able to get along. Some people are quite harmonious, and they are not quarrelling for a lifetime. As she spoke, You Chunmei glanced at her wife.
knew that his wife was carrying and arranging himself again, but Chu Yuliang didn't say anything, but his nose "snorted" again.
"Mom, don't worry. I'm twenty-eight years old, and I'm twenty-seven, what's the hurry?" Chu Tianqi was in such a mood now, so he prevaricated, "Many people in the city got married after thirty. ”
"The city is the city, the countryside is the countryside, the city talks about the first year, and the village talks about the virtual year. The year the child is in the mother's womb must also be counted, and the pregnancy in October cannot be forgotten, this is the old reason. You Chunmei said the first thing, "I know that some people in the city get married late, some never get married, and some don't even want children, and they say what kind of family." If you want me to see it, those who don't get married and don't want children are all unfilial, and 'filial piety comes first'! This is not only unfilial piety, but also unfaithful. Do you think that if you don't get married, you don't want children, then people will not have to be extinct? If there is no inheritance, and there is no one left, who will build such a big country? I think they are selfish. ”
Maybe she felt that the words were far away, or maybe she felt that what she said just now was a little unheard, You Chunmei pulled the conversation back again: "The city and the countryside are not vulgar, I know this." You were born in the countryside, we have to compare with the descendants of the countryside, you are already of marriage age by now. By the way, have you met his parents? It's time to meet, and if it's convenient, both parents should meet too. With that, she stopped and looked at her son.
Seeing his mother staring at him, Chu Tianqi realized that his mother was waiting for him to answer, so he hurriedly said, "See ...... It's time to meet, but we're both busy, and we don't always have time. ”
"No matter how busy you are, you can find time, even on weekends and holidays. You Chunmei raised a different opinion.
Her parents are busy, too. Chu Tianqi made up nonsense, "She contacted her just that day, but her parents were not there." ”
You Chunmei asked, "When will you come back?"
"It's hard to say, they went abroad. Chu Tianqi tried to push back the time as much as possible.
"Go abroad?" You Chunmei first said, "That family's parents are not simple, they are either officials or do big business." What the hell are they doing, do you know what?"
"They all seem to be civil servants. Chu Tianqi responded casually.
You Chunmei thought for a while, her face was a little solemn, and she muttered to herself: "It seems that their family is all officials, and they are taller than our family, but don't be angry with the dog." is so sensible to Miss Xiaoning, the adults in the family should not be far behind. Besides, with my son, he will definitely have a future in the future, maybe he can get a county magistrate, maybe he can be a provincial governor. At this, her face was full of yearning and pride.
Chu Tianqi was absent-minded, and he really couldn't keep up with his mother's thinking jump, so he simply stopped picking up the stubble, and only made a look of listening to his ears, but in fact, his mind had already wandered to the side.
You Chunmei said to herself: "I think you should hurry up and meet Miss Xiaoning's parents, and let us meet them as soon as possible to discuss your two lifelong events." When people marry their daughters to us, naturally your father and I go to talk about it, although we are countrymen, but we understand this big truth. Ten miles of different winds, hundreds of miles of different customs, there are some things to talk about in advance, don't let the woman's relatives pick it up when the time comes. The matter of marriage can be postponed for a few days, and the engagement can be made first. If people don't pay attention to this, then they will get married directly, which will be more convenient.
The rules in the city and the countryside are different, and we have to listen to what others say. As long as it is not too difficult for us, we will come according to the rules of others, and we can give up everything for the sake of our son. People must have a lot of relatives and friends, and they must set up a special table, which is human nature. It's just that at this banquet time, we have to do it first, we are marrying a daughter-in-law, not a son-in-law.
I guess people will have to talk about the house. You are all members of the public family, and it is impossible to go back to the countryside to live, so buy a house in the city. The house in the provincial capital is too expensive, and we really can't afford it, so you can only buy it yourself if you have the money in the future, so let's buy it in the county seat first. Originally, I had saved a little money over the years, but when your father was hospitalized, I spent a lot, and I only had that fixed deposit certificate left. I have saved all the money you have given to my family in the past two years, and your father has earned a little more, and if you go out to borrow some more, you will definitely be able to buy a house in the county. If your unit is divided, it is estimated that it will not cost a few dollars.
There is also three golds, whether the woman mentions it or not, we have to give it, this is the rule, and it can be regarded as a meeting gift for the in-laws. I have heard that no one in the city wants it, so we should also mention it, so it seems that we understand etiquette. By the way, you also need money to buy those goods, and these should also be taken into account. When people marry their daughters to us, we can't wronged other girls, and we have to have ...... what we should have."
Although Chu Tianqi's mind had been slipping, he still listened a lot to what his mother said. Listening to it, his eyes turned red, "Pity the hearts of parents in the world". At the same time, he was also very sad, his mother knew that things had gone wrong, and she was shaving her head and picking hot heads, which was wishful thinking.
……
After his mother finished speaking, Chu Tianqi vaguely agreed and walked out of the courtyard.
When he came to the street, Chu Tianqi called Hao Xiaoyan and asked her to take care of Ning Junqi more.
Hao Xiaoyan said that she had just come out of Ning Junqi's house, and Ning Junqi was in a daze except for crying, just like being infected with a demonic disease. She also said, "I really don't know what is going on with you young people", and reassured Chu Tianqi that she was taking care of her.
After hanging up the phone, Chu Tianqi looked ahead from afar, distracted for a long time. It was as if the eyes were going to pass through the mountains and see the people in the room directly.
