Part II: Chapter 42
(Shushu.com provides text chapters) Wang Guixiang has things in his heart, and he can't stay in the provincial capital. Book.book.net, she stayed at home for a few days, saw Zhu Xiaolan calling Lin Shengjie every day, with jokes in the corners of her mouth, and honey in her mouth, she couldn't sit still, and planned to go to Lin Shengjie's house to go home after dinner.
When I arrived at Lin Shengjie's house on the weekend, Wang Guixiang sat in the living room watching TV, constantly looking left and right. At first glance, the house was clean everywhere, but her eyes still saw that something was wrong. The coffee table was very sloppy, and she could see faint water marks, and there were some old dirt and black stains between the floor tiles and tiles, and she smiled when she saw her mother dragging her chubby body around. This home is not very clean, but it is not harsh and suitable for her daughter. She knew that if her personality was too clean and calculating, she would be just as unpopular as she was.
She couldn't bear to see that her mother was busy alone, so she asked Zhu Xiaolan to help. Zhu Xiaolan rolled up her sleeves, tied her apron, and went to the stove, and Lin's mother hurriedly praised: "Xiaolan's cooking skills are not something that has been practiced for a long time! I'm still telling Shengjie that it's difficult to find one like this now!"
Wang Guixiang stood aside and looked at the two of them, and said, "That's also forced out." At that time, I was busy with work, and she was alone at home during the summer vacation, so she was the only one who cooked!"
Wang Guixiang stood at the door of the kitchen and watched her daughter get the fish cut neatly, the fish's mouth was still open, and her eyes were not shining. She felt uncomfortable in her heart, and she couldn't help but shed tears. She hurriedly turned around, wiped it with a tissue, took two deep breaths, and said in a more normal voice: "You said that the life and death of this person are the same as chickens, ducks, fish, etc., and it is also an uncertain matter! Obviously, he was still alive and well last day, but the next day, the master's family wants to kill or sell, but he can't do it himself!"
Mother Lin felt that Wang Guixiang was talking strangely, and it was not a good sign to let out a sad voice on such a good day. But when I thought about it, she was a student of Buddhism, and she might have said such things out of compassion, and she didn't know it, so she didn't say anything.
At the dinner table, Wang Guixiang deliberately sat in front of the fish's head.
Father Lin got up. He poured his wine and said, "That day is the official engagement. But this day is a family feast. Let's sit together as a family, don't care about anything else, eat and drink, talk about affection!"
Wang Guixiang picked up the wine glass and responded, only taking a shallow sip.
Mother Lin looked at her son and Zhu Xiaolan and smiled. "My son, my son is an only child, and when he was a child, his family's used character was also very domineering, and if he did something wrong in the future and made Xiaolan angry, I want you to teach him more!"
Wang Guixiang saw that Mother Lin said soft words first, and her heart softened, and she immediately said: "My Xiaolan is." I raised her alone. She doesn't have many friends, and her personality is inevitably withdrawn. Usually I pay attention to it, and it is Shengjie who asks her to have more places. But I knew it wouldn't work for a long time, so I thought. Later, she came to your house. You should treat her as your own daughter! Say what you should say and scold what you should scold. You're welcome. The family talks about scolding, that's the way to get along!"
Zhu Xiaolan looked at her mother and didn't understand why she suddenly said such a thing.
Wang Guixiang smiled, picked up the wine glass and said, "I must have neglected her in disciplining, and I will ask you to bear with her mistakes in the future!" After speaking, he dried the wine. Mother Lin was a little confused, so she had to pour the wine dry.
Wang Guixiang drank the wine, hurriedly drank white water, and then sandwiched green vegetables to dilute the taste of wine in his mouth.
"Young people don't understand things, old people don't understand, just say a few words, or we don't know. You say Shengjie, live a good life, always buy something that we don't understand, come back, he himself is still very interested!" Lin Lao Ma smiled, "So I said that we old men and old women should not be here to hinder the eyes of young people, and when they get married, we will go out to live and we will be idle, and they are also tall."
Wang Guixiang frowned slightly, glanced at her daughter, didn't say anything, and said lightly: "Actually, I don't think so." The old and the young can live together to some extent. ”
Mother Lin was a little unsure of what Wang Guixiang said when she heard this, so she looked at her son a little puzzled.
Lin Shengjie hurriedly said: "Auntie, my mother has a new concept, she wants to live alone with my father!"
Wang Guixiang smiled and didn't say anything.
Zhu Xiaolan hurriedly said other words, diverted the topic, and the atmosphere became lively again. …
"By the way, in-laws, do you think Xiaolan is good to buy this ring?" Lin Lao Ma smiled, "I think such a small ring costs so much money, it's a bit of a loss!
"Does the child like it?" said Lin's father.
Wang Guixiang nodded slightly, and Lin Shengjie said busily: "Mom, this is what we like." When Xiaolan and I get married, if you like gold, you can give us gold jewelry!
Mother Lin smiled and said, "My in-laws, in fact, I'm not too expensive. I just thought that our man's family should actually have a big head. Shengjie is a heartless person, so Xiaolan posted the money herself. This girl is honest, she definitely doesn't say anything in her heart, but my mother feels uncomfortable!"
Wang Guixiang was shocked in her heart, and said with a strong smile: "No!"
"I know what you think, I will definitely be good to Xiaolan in the future, don't worry about it!"
When Wang Guixiang heard this, she looked at Mother Lin and felt that this woman looked stupid, but in fact, she was also extremely shrewd. She only picked up the wine glass, and she had to let Mother Lin drink it, and Mother Lin accepted her affection, and drank the two relatives to be considered to have a knot.
Lin Shengjie pursed his lips and smiled at Zhu Xiaolan, Zhu Xiaolan hurriedly poured two cups of boiled water for the two mothers to drink, and said with a smile: "My marriage to Shengjie depends on the hard work of the two of you, now I have to cultivate well!"
Wang Guixiang only sighed in her heart, wishing that there would be such a day.
"In-laws, I see that your face is not very good, are you sick?" asked Mrs. Lin tentatively.
Wang Guixiang narrowed his eyes and said, "I've never been in good health, that's all!"
"Mom, why don't we go to the hospital tomorrow for a check-up. It's time for a physical examination!" Zhu Xiaolan said enthusiastically, "By the way, Auntie will go too." If there are more people, you can give a discount!"
Lin Shengjie smiled: "I'm a driver!"
Zhu Xiaolan glanced at Lin Shengjie very concernedly. This person actually took the initiative to ask to go to the hospital?
Lin Shengjie smiled.
"Look, this good day is not over yet, and the body is well!" said Father Lin.
"In-laws, don't blame me for being a mouthy-talker! I see that you are frighteningly thin, which person of our age has no meat on his body? Book.book.Net, I saw you last time you didn't eat much, and you were a vegetarian! You said that we old people can't leave any property for our children, but we also need to lighten the burden on our children, right?"
This is not good, but it is in line with Wang Guixiang's heart disease, she forced a smile and said: "Aren't I just afraid of burdening Xiaolan?" But I have been checked at home, and I have also gone to a hospital to see it, but I don't need it this time." In-laws, you are in good health. It's easy to check and maintain!"
Mother Lin became excited when she said that she was happy: "You see, when are we going to see a good day, let the two of them get the certificate, okay?" I plan to pay a house for Shengjie. I want to refer to your opinions, too?"
Wang Guixiang felt that it was difficult for her to answer this, and turned her head to look at her daughter. Zhu Xiaolan smiled at Lin Shengjie again. Lin Shengjie said. "Mom, take a slow time in the house, I'll just buy it myself. Xiaolan has no opinion! Your son has such a good house, the car can always earn back, and he has to earn it back, Xiaolan is not interested in a house, but all of your son!"
Mother Lin laughed at this, and Wang Guixiang also laughed.
The little sister was a little irritable, and she couldn't stay at home. In such a big house, in addition to being a nanny, Lao Qin can't stay at home every day. She never asked him where he was, and when he wanted to come back, she would call and say hello if he didn't come back. In the past, she was used to this state and was very satisfied, very good, but as her belly grew bigger and bigger, her mood became worse and worse, and the more she tried to control her temper, the more difficult it became to control some things that she used to do well, and now it is also difficult.
She was afraid that she could become Lao Qin's wife, not because of how much Lao Qin loved her or how much she loved Lao Qin, it was just that she was suitable for this role. She and Lao Qin both know each other well and cooperate very well. She helped Lao Qin take care of some relationships that he was inconvenient to come forward with, and Lao Qin gave her the most respect, freedom, money, and most importantly, a son--- and she and he both hoped to be a son.
Lao Qin gave her the status and benefits of the Qin family, and she had to find a way to fight for it herself. She took advantage of Lao Qin's opportunity to deal with her predecessor's brother-in-law and pushed Lin Shengjie in, this was only preliminary; she also suppressed the dissatisfaction of the representative of Party A on the construction site at the beginning of the report that Lin Shengjie's construction management was unfavorable, and Lao Qin also successfully let Lin Shengjie take the position, but she still felt dissatisfied in her heart, and the hole in her heart was still not filled.
Her stomach was getting bigger and bigger, and she clearly remembered that she told Lao Qin that the last few days were due dates, and asked him to go home on time.
She frustrated herself packing up her things and dragging her voice to call the nanny to take her to the hospital.
"Do you want to call the boss?" asked the nanny cautiously to the angry woman.
Xiaomei threw her mobile phone on the wall, "No!" She felt a little revenge, didn't Lao Qin want a son, and didn't let you be the first to see your son! After speaking, she asked the nanny to carry her bag and follow her to the hospital.
Lin Shengjie's van was parked outside the hospital, he bought a newspaper and threw it to the car, and his father sat and watched by himself, waiting for his mother to check it out. As soon as he entered the hospital gate, he saw a familiar car parked in the hospital parking lot, he walked over and looked, sure enough, it was Mr. Qin, who opened the car door and came out, and said with a smile: "Mr. Qin, what a coincidence!"
Mr. Qin looked Lin Shengjie up and down, and said with a smile: "Qiao, do you have something in the hospital?"
Lin Shengjie hurriedly said: "My mother came to check my body, and my girlfriend accompanied me, so I walked around outside!"
Mr. Qin's expression relaxed suddenly, and his steps didn't stop: "My little sister gave birth, I have to come and see it!
Lin Shengjie suddenly realized, looked at Mr. Qin's empty hands, and hurriedly said, "Mr. Qin, wait a minute!"
Mr. Qin frowned. Lin Shengjie hurriedly went to the flower shop next to the hospital to buy a flower basket, hugged it over, handed it to Mr. Qin, and said, "Mr. Qin." Congratulations on having a precious son! There is no flower basket to give in this hurry. Make new moms happy!"
Mr. Qin smiled heartily and patted Lin Shengjie's shoulder, "I really don't understand the things of you young people!" After speaking, Xi Zizi took the flower basket, "Let's go with me and have a look!
Lin Shengjie looked at the towering hospital building in embarrassment. Jin Cancan's "Maternal and Child Health Hospital" has a few big words, look at the ground next to Mr. Qin's ears, and his heart moved: "It just so happens that I am also waiting for irritability, go in and have a look!"
Mr. Qin's face was full of red light, and he was very excited. Lin Shengjie has mixed feelings in his heart, he is a son. The little sister's wish has been fulfilled.
Lin Shengjie called Zhu Xiaolan to explain the situation, and followed Mr. Qin to the outside of the ward. "Mr. Qin's new mother always wants to see the child's father at first sight. I'll be waiting for you outside!"
Mr. Qin smiled. This kid is very knowledgeable, and he doesn't say much. Push open the door and enter.
Lin Shengjie only heard the woman's furious voice and the baby's cry. He heard the voice a little distant, as if it were not a door, but a world. The little sister is really far away from him, and now he can really stand indifferently at the door of her ward and say some words of blessing in his heart, instead of saying blessings in his mouth like before, but in his heart he is more unwilling.
He thinks that there are some people who slowly fade away in other people's memories until they disappear, and some people who are slowly deepened in other people's memories until they are entangled and integrated into flesh and blood, and can no longer be separated.
Zhu Xiaolan and Mrs. Lin went to the obstetrics and gynecology department to find Lin Shengjie after the examination, and happened to see him standing at the door of the human ward, and said with a smile: "Why did you come here?
"My little sister gave birth to a son, and Mr. Qin is inside!" After speaking, he pulled Zhu Xiaolan and smiled at his mother, and then whispered: "It's very uncomfortable, you let me lean on!"
Zhu Xiaolan took Lin Shengjie's somewhat cold hand, "Are you still here when you feel uncomfortable?"
Lin Shengjie looked at Zhu Xiaolan with a smile: "Xiaolan, in the future, when you lie inside, I will have to guard you like this!"
Zhu Xiaolan was shy, her face was slightly red, but she was hit hard in her heart, her moist eyes looked at Lin Shengjie, and her mouth moved a few times, but she couldn't speak. She knew him, she knew he was trying, and that effort touched her. She didn't care much about the man she didn't care about to be able to think about changing for herself, that is, the blessing language expressed such a mood in the air, she only grabbed Lin Shengjie's fingernails tightly and dug deep into his palm.
Lin Shengjie felt a little pain, but it hurt happily!
Zhu Xiaolan heard that she was crying and making trouble for a while, and said, "Why did you cry when you gave birth to a child?"
"I have to go and talk about it, I can't cry!" Mrs. Lin was so enthusiastic that she was about to push the door in, but it happened that Mr. Qin hugged a swaddling baby and came out embarrassed, and when she saw several people at the door of the ward, she was a little embarrassed, Lin Shengjie hurriedly said: "Mr. Qin, this is my mother and girlfriend, they are also here to congratulate you on having a son!"
Mr. Qin smiled and nodded, and hurriedly coaxed the sad child with a flushed face, Zhu Xiaolan, who forced herself to ignore the two nail marks on Mr. Qin's face.
Seeing the embarrassment of the three of them, Mr. Qin laughed and said: "It's really the first time I know that my little sister is so temperamental, and when she sees me coming, she throws her son and scares me to death!
Mother Lin laughed, her voice was loud, and she didn't know who this Mr. Qin was, so she rushed up and said, "It's not right for you to hold a child like this! Come on, I'll teach you how tender the child's body is, let you hold it like this, and the bones are crooked!" After speaking, regardless of Mr. Qin's reaction, he reached out and grabbed the child and tidied up the messy swaddling clothes.
Mr. Qin was stunned for a moment, his hands were idle, and he wiped his head indiscriminately, "Ha, I'm too busy, and when I reacted, my little sister came to the hospital by herself." ”
Lin Shengjie pulled Zhu Xiaolanzai and looked at the child carefully, then took out a newly prepared envelope and stuffed it into the child's swaddling clothes and said: "I met today, it is really fate, this is a gift for the little baby!"
Mr. Qin did not refuse, looked at Zhu Xiaolan and smiled at Lin Shengjie. A nurse came out and hugged the child in, and Mr. Qin probed it in again, but a large handful of flowers were thrown out of it, and Mr. Qin's face was all over his face, and Mr. Qin was not angry, and slapped the flowers and leaves off his head with a smile.
Lin Shengjie saw that Mr. Qin's mind was all on his son, and he didn't bother much, so he left and left.
Along the way, Mother Lin was a little hesitant, and it was obvious that Zhu Xiaolan was not easy to say, she had just seen the woman's face through the crack in the door, and she only had some doubts in her heart.
She took advantage of the time when Zhu Xiaolan went to pay the bill and secretly asked Lin Shengjie, "Is it the woman before?"
Lin Shengjie said: "It's all over, isn't it important to her?"
Mother Lin kept her mouth shut, and the two stood by the steps at the entrance of the hospital and waited for Zhu Xiaolan.
Mother Lin watched Zhu Xiaolan go out of the hospital with a handful of lists, looked left and right on the steps, and when she saw them, she walked over with a smile, straightened out her head that was blown by the wind, and said with a smile: "It's her!"
Lin Shengjie also smiled and nodded, looking at her and walking in his direction, the light reflected by the hospital curtain wall behind her also shone behind her, like the brilliance of an angel, he couldn't help but walk up, squeezed Zhu Xiaolan's hand, and hummed in his mouth. Zhu Xiaolan didn't hear it clearly, and when she reacted, she put the list in her bag and said in surprise: "What are you humming?"
Lin Shengjie blushed slightly, looked left and right, and no one paid attention, so he stopped.
Zhu Xiaolan didn't relent, "No, I didn't hear it clearly just now, you have to sing it to me again!"
Lin Shengjie squinted his eyes and looked at Zhu Xiaolan's coquettishness, "No!" Just don't sing, her coquettish appearance is really rare, and he has to enjoy it for a while.
Mother Lin squinted at the two of them, the sun shone on them, thought about her life's hard work, looked at the old man napping in the van, and felt that the white on the ears of the dead old man was also particularly cute.
Sometimes life is boiled water with steamed buns, which is tasteless at the beginning, but slowly tastes it, and it becomes sweeter and sweeter.
This ending is very ordinary, just like this story, but I personally feel that it is a good match. The story of ordinary people is like this, there are no twists and turns, just some small events, but these small events determine some very important moments in our lives!
