Chapter 33, Daughter Tribulation
After dinner, when the sky was sparsely lit and the stars were sparse, a group of black magpies were flying south, and I looked at the group of black magpies that made sounds that I could not understand, and my heart was inexplicably lost! Could it be that Cao Mengde's "Short Song Xing" wrote, "Three turns around the tree, what branches can be followed"? My mood at the moment also seems to be a little like this.
I stood in a daze under the old lychee tree in front of the boss's house, waiting for Xue'er, I thought they would have to pass through here when they came back. Maybe I have to explain to Cher that my relationship with Ah Zhen is not as complicated as she imagined. In fact, there is nothing unpleasant between me and Ah Zhen, and I think that as long as I explain it to Cher, I will eliminate unnecessary misunderstandings.
I don't know why I'm waiting here for Cher, do I really need to explain anything? I don't think I've done anything wrong? Maybe it's because I want to see Cher? After all, Xue'er is so important in my heart! If I didn't have Xue'er, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to work at her uncle's place, and I wouldn't have met Ah Zhen. From junior high school to the present, from the time Cher came to our school to watch me make a blackboard newspaper, from the first time she stuffed a note on Cher desk, Cher has been my favorite! Her position in my heart is irreplaceable! Cher has supported me all the way since then, and has been walking with me all the way.
The taste of waiting for others was not pleasant, and I paced back and forth, sweating in the cool night. I looked up to the second floor from time to time, and in this case, I understood the patience that Ah Zhen had waiting for me that night, and the anxiety of wanting to see her sweetheart.
But I didn't have the courage to go in, and I never went up to the second floor of this building, and the night I saw Ah Zhen washing her hair, it was the only time I was here, and only at the door. Because I think the people who live here are a bit complicated, the boss, Miss Lin, Dandan and Ah Zhen, these people are not at the same level as me, a very ordinary worker, at this stage, so when I usually see them (her), I am a little ashamed of myself, and it is no wonder that I have a sad background. …… After thinking about it for a while, she still didn't see Xue'er come out, but Dandan came downstairs.
"You're all back, where have you been all day? I can't find you when I want to talk to you. ”
I greeted Dandan and asked Dandan.
"Yes, they're all back, Sister Xue'er seems to be in a bad mood, I think it's you who caused the trouble, and she doesn't want to come down to see you. She barely spoke all day today, kept sullen, and didn't buy anything at Chung Ying Street in Sha Tau Kok. It seems that you are very sad about her heart, and you have to find a way to explain it. Seeing that I didn't speak, she continued: "You go up to the second floor, my eldest aunt told you to go upstairs, and they have something to ask you." ”
After Dandan said, she didn't go upstairs, but walked away, she clearly didn't want to mix, and her mood didn't seem so happy.
I plucked up the courage to go up to the second floor, the warm light was a little dim, on the mahogany sofa in the living room, there were Xue'er's mother and sisters, I didn't see Xue'er, I didn't see Azhen, Dandan didn't come up with me, I don't know where I went. I felt a little ominous, the atmosphere was a little dignified, and Cher's uncle was not on the second floor, I guess the boss and Miss Lin lived on the third floor. I only saw three rooms on the second floor, and one of the doors was not fully closed, it was hidden, but the light was not turned on in the room, and it was pitch black. It seemed that someone inside was listening to the conversation outside, and I muttered to myself, "Is it Xue'er or Ah Zhen in the room?" or are they both inside?
I calmed down a little, and then called out respectfully to Mother Cher and Mother Zhen:
"Hello two aunts. ”
After I said this, I stood in the middle of the hall in a daze, and thought to myself: Why didn't Xue'er see me? The person I want to explain is Xue'er, not the two aunts, if it is these two aunts, what can I say? They did not beckon me to sit down, and the atmosphere and scene were very awkward for a while, almost suffocating, because neither of them spoke, but their faces were black.
My arrival was clearly to make them unhappy, or to think that I was coming, and they were already unhappy. My heart started beating and my face was hot. It seems that when I went back to my student days, I didn't finish my homework and let the teacher punish me, and I was criticized in front of everyone, and I felt as if there was a large group of people around me, and I was watching the excitement with strange eyes.
I couldn't even find the right words to break the deadlock. There was silence in the living room, except for the sound of the seconds hand in the old-fashioned clock on the wall.
After a while, both of the sisters looked me up and down at the same time, as if they wanted to find out what they wanted in me. I muttered to myself: Are the twins also acting synchronously?
"The two aunts are tired today, let's rest early, I still have to work overtime. ”
I said that I was about to leave, and when I was about to turn around, Ah Zhen's mother suddenly said:
"Don't worry, young man, my eldest sister has something to say to you, sit down. ”
Ah Zhen's mother, I met Ah Zhen when I went back to the company on a date, because her hair was permed and short, and I could tell from this hair. The twin sisters look too similar, they are in their forties and almost fifty years old, and their bodies are well maintained, although they are, they still have charm, and they are even more attractive than Mr. Lin, I don't know how Xue'er's uncle would like Miss Lin. When these two sisters were young, they must have been extremely beautiful people. The two sisters have almost the same voice, and Ah Zhen's mother also speaks very much like Ah Zhen.
At this time, Xue'er's mother also said coldly:
"Hanzhe, get out of here, get out of Cher, Cher needs to study. You are here, Xue'er said that she would come along, not going to college, I can't stand it, I can't tolerate letting you ruin her future, our family, we don't need her to come out to earn money now, you leave her. ”
This cold tone was like a cold wind, and I couldn't help but shiver, but at this time, my heart had regained its calm, and I listened carefully to every word that Cher's mother said. I saw that the more she said, the more angry she became:
"I don't have a good heart to see you, in the third year of junior high school, I was too soft-hearted, so my father gave you what I was used to, didn't tear you apart, and arranged you to my brother's side, which caused Xue'er to break the thread, and her academic performance plummeted. It me off... It's all you... What kind of medicine did you give Cher, so that she could love you so desperately that she wasn't even afraid to fall out with me! I'm about to give you two a breath. ”
When Xue'er's mother said this, her eyes went to the room with the door hidden, and I was sure that Xue'er and Ah Zhen must be inside, and these words were said to me and to everyone.
I didn't know how to answer, but Ah Zhen's mother also picked up at this time and said:
"Han... My brother praised you in front of me the day before yesterday, saying that you have a good character, you are responsible, and you are self-motivated, and I want to train you, and then send you and Ah Zhen to the Zhuhai branch, and you will be the factory director. But I said Han Zhe, why did you have Xue'er and still date Ah Zhen? Isn't this stepping on two boats? This is your fault, you will not only hurt Xue'er, you will hurt Ah Zhen, but you will also hurt yourself. You must not hurt me Ah Zhen, she has never dragged hands with a man, she can't stand the stimulation. If you leave Ah Zhen, don't look for her in the future, otherwise I don't think you will end well, it's terrible! Don't say you don't, I've seen it with my own eyes. ”
Ah Zhen's mother's words, when Xue'er's mother heard this, she was even more angry, and her chest fell together while sitting on the sofa, and her face was blue and red for a while. In that case, she couldn't wait to come and slap me twice, her eyes stared at me fiercely, staring at me so much that I was ashamed! Especially when Ah Zhen's mother said that I was dating Ah Zhen, Xue'er's mother gritted her teeth even more, and her expression was like she was going to eat me.
The sisters seem to be judges in the courtroom, as if they are interrogating the prisoners. I noticed the faint sound of crying coming from the hidden room.
Xue'er's mother stared at me, and her eyes seemed to question me: How do you explain it? I still try to tolerate it if you are good to Xue'er, as long as you are good to Xue'er in the future. But you, and now you still make a Zhen, you kid is simply too deceitful! Don't put my Xue'er in your eyes, my Xue'er is for you, for your family, parents, almost everything she has, and even wants to sacrifice her studies to follow you, for you, Xue'er really gave everything she has! But you, I can't imagine that you are such a person, how can you tell me to rest assured? Rest assured to hand over my precious daughter to you? You are really an ungrateful person! Vain my Xue'er's undying love for you.
The words of these two sisters made me speechless for a while, although it was a bit excessive, but it was basically the truth. I suddenly felt that it was really like what Ah Zhen's mother said: This will really hurt Xue'er and Ah Zhen, and I don't feel good myself. My face was hot and cold, red and white, I didn't know how to answer, sweat was raining, I was ashamed, and I wished there was a hole in the ground at this time, and I could get into it.
At this time, I really didn't know how to deal with the problem of these two aunts, I remember that when I was in the commune garment factory, Xue'er and her mother were very opposed to Xue'er falling in love with me. But as she said, her heart was too soft to tear us apart, and that's exactly what happened. After coming here, Ah Zhen has a good impression of me, and it is also a fact that I should not go out on a date with Ah Zhen, let alone think about Ah Zhen in my heart. If I continue to work here, if Xue'er really comes to Pengcheng, how will I deal with Xue'er and Ah Zhen? Although Ah Zhen is very likely to let her uncle send her uncle to the Zhuhai branch, it is also inseparable from the company, not to mention that I often go to Zhuhai for business dealings, which means that I am not separated, and this situation will definitely appear. Then, it is impossible for me to face the two sisters Xue'er and Ah Zhen, and I can't not talk to Ah Zhen all of a sudden, like strangers.
The more I thought about it, the more I thought it might be my best choice to leave. But the question is: if I get out of here, if I leave Cher, if I leave Cher, if I leave Ah Zhen, will it solve the problem? If it can solve the problem, then I can do this. But after I leave, Xue'er and Ah Zhen will be happy, Xue'er will be able to study in peace, and I won't come to Pengcheng, and I can forget Xue'er at once? Forget Ah Zhen? Where can I go after I come out of the company? My mind is very chaotic all of a sudden, and I don't know what to do? I can't respond to the words of the two aunts for a while.
At this time, in the room with the door closed, the faint sound of the woman's crying was more clear, it was clearly Xue'er's voice, she couldn't cry anymore, my heart was tight, as if my heart was about to jump out, pounding. The words of these two aunts were like a slap in the face, which suddenly woke me up and made me feel ashamed.
I can't wait to leave this building immediately, and I hope that Xue'er and Ah Zhen don't appear again, and if Xue'er and Ah Zhen come out at this time, I can't face it. I hid my emotions for a while, and was about to reply, when Cher's mother said:
"You go write your resignation letter tomorrow, leave the company within three days, don't see Xue'er again from now on, I must watch you leave here, I can rest assured." ”
"No, don't, Mom, wait for my uncle to come back from Hong Kong, I don't want Hanzhe to go, Mom, please don't let Hanzhe go. ”
Cher rushed out of the room at this time, she ignored everyone's eyes or thoughts, and as soon as she came out of the room, she rushed to my side and hugged me tight. She had wept to tears, and kept saying that I should not leave her.
Ah Zhen was also standing at the door of the room at this time, her face was also sprinkled with crystal tears, but she did not speak, her face was deep melancholy, and a pair of eyes that had lost their beauty, staring closely at me and Cher. She watched Xue'er come over and hug me tightly at the moment, her eyes could only be watched from afar, and her heart could only ache secretly. On this occasion, she is not suitable for anything to say, nor is it suitable to make any actions, Xue'er has already come to hug me, she can't come over again to join in the fun, so she can only lean against the door, crying bitterly.
Daughter's heart, I don't know what it is?
I hugged Xue'er, but I looked at Ah Zhen, I read sadness, helplessness, and sadness in her eyes! I thought to myself: She and I have not hugged and kissed like me and Cher, and I will leave her like this! And this man is the man she took the initiative to confess to him, and she loves. Ah Zhen's face did not have the slightest look of the first date with me, and what she left me with at this moment was like a dull gaze of a mentally ill person, and the way she looked at me and Xue'er made me goosebumps and creeps! I couldn't help but shiver! I didn't dare to look at her.
I couldn't help but stroke Cher's hair, and whispered to her in a very low voice that only the two of us could hear:
"Xue'er is good, good Xue'er, you go back to your mother to sit on the sofa, so that your mother is even more angry, Ah Zhen is not comfortable to watch, and your second aunt is also uncomfortable, good, Xue'er, you go over." ”
When Xue'er heard me say this, she slapped me on the back a few times with her hand, and said while crying: "You still said that you have nothing to do with Ah Zhen, you are dating her, and you said that it doesn't matter, you don't put me at ease at all." You also said that Ah Zhen felt uncomfortable when she saw it, and you just loved her in your heart and cared about her. I hate you!" Although Xue'er's words were not loud, Ah Zhen, her aunt, and her mother could definitely hear them clearly. After Cher said this, she hit me with her hand on the back again.
I didn't know what to do, I looked at Xue'er, and then at Ah Zhen, with a helpless expression, and said to Xue'er again: "Xue'er is obedient, go to your mother's side, I beg you." Cher said, "No, I want to hold you, I won't let you go, I don't want you to leave me, I love you." Cher hugged me tighter at this time, and she said loudly, just to let everyone hear, especially when she said the words "I love you".
Ah Zhen couldn't help crying at this time, she hid her face and ran downstairs while crying. Ah Zhen's mother immediately jumped up on the sofa and shouted:
"Zhen'er, where are you going? He quickly followed Ah Zhen downstairs.
At this time, Cher's mother saw that Cher and I hugged each other, and she was even more resentful, and said fiercely:
If you are really good to her, you will leave Cher, go far away, and never come back to see her again. Originally, you have already hurt my Xue'er, and now you are still harming Ah Zhen, you are a little rascal, how can you tell me to trust Xue'er to you? ”
Xue'er's mother said categorically, word by word, and then walked over and forcibly pulled Xue'er, who had been crying, away from me, and then continued: "You go, I don't want to see you again, go as far as possible, you ungrateful thing." ”
Cher was still holding my hand, unwilling to let go. She cried and said, "Mom, please, don't let Hanzhe go, I love him, I only have him in my heart, Mom, Xue'er beg." ”
"Xue'er, I love you too, you listen to your mother, I'll go. After I said that, I took Xue'er's hand away and went downstairs without looking back.
Xue'er let her mother pull her, and she couldn't chase me, so she could only sit on the ground, crying and shouting my name, a scene that I will never forget for the rest of my life.
