Chapter Eighty-Three: Mother

Hearing Wu Li's description of her mother, Lu Ran thought of the unreasonable woman in that room who restricted the freedom of her husband and son.

He still couldn't understand her actions.

He didn't speak, still looking at Wu Li in front of him, hoping that he could explain more.

"I know you don't understand. To this day, I can't say that I fully understand my mother, her inner feelings. However, I can tell you a little bit about the easier parts to understand. "It sounds like it's going to be very inscrutable.

He calmly stated to Lu Ran, "My mother, her parents, left him very early. I mean, leaving this world, not being with her. That's my grandparents.

At that time, the family's economy was not well-off, her mother was still young, and there was no special concern for her among her relatives. My mother was the only flesh and blood of my grandfather and grandmother.

A few relatives offered to take care of her at home, but they didn't know if they really cared about her for the sake of the vacant house. In short, it was some faces that she was not very familiar with, coming out to claim her, or to take care of her.

Finally a woman whose mother called her aunt came into the house and took care of her daily life, but one day the aunt smiled and talked to my mother about the ownership of the house.

My mother was very suspicious of her.

The mother, who was sensitive by nature, soon developed a strong rejection of her, and cried and fussed at the aunt, although she was still a child at the time, but she understood her fate earlier than children of the same age, and she knew that there was nothing else left for her by her parents but this house.

From then on, she no longer trusted her so-called relatives.

She rejects anyone from her home, and in order not to be sent to a welfare home or taken over, she will sell some things on her own in exchange for change to make ends meet.

Sounds like my mother is very independent, right?"

After Wu Li finished speaking, he asked rhetorically.

Lu Ran thought about this question seriously and replied, "Independence, maybe not accurate, I think, she feels lonely." ”

Hearing this answer, Wu Li paused for a second, looked at Lu Ran, and then nodded and said, "You're right. It should be lonely. This loneliness has always occupied her life, her heart. ”

After listening to Wu Li's explanation, Lu Ran was silent, and he paused.

He looked at Wu Li and felt a little contradictory.

This sense of contradiction was unconsciously transmitted to him from Wu Li's words and Wu Li's expression.

He tried to figure out what this contradictory mood was, so he looked into Wu Li's eyes and asked, "You don't actually blame her, do you?"

Wu Li was a little puzzled, not quite understanding Lu Ran's question, "She??"

"Your mother. Lu Ran said in more detail, "You think she restricts you and restricts you, in fact, you do think so subconsciously." In that vision you see after you are hypnotized, she tells you to hurry home, and she binds your father.

It looks like she's done a lot of unwise things, things that confuse you.

All the way to this point, I am not confused, and I can understand your feelings.

However, it wasn't until just now, when you introduced your mother, to be exact, your mother's loneliness, that I had a sense of confusion, a sense of ambivalence.

You don't actually blame her, you don't blame your mother, do you?"

I don't know where Lu Ran's statement and analysis touched Wu Li's originally indifferent and isolated heart, his heart trembled, his voice trembled a little, and his eyes were a little damp.

"I haven't thought about this question before, but today you asked me this, I seem to understand something, I am indeed like this, I don't blame my mother, no matter what she did, I never blamed her!"

Wu Li expressed his affirmative attitude this time, and Lu Ran understood it as soon as he heard it.

He understood where his tangled and contradictory feelings came from.

At first, Lu Ran knew that Wu Li was limited by his mother's control, and he also felt helplessness from Wu Li's smile.

If Wu Li started complaining to him at this time about how his mother interfered with him on weekdays, and how he lost his freedom in his life, Lu Ran would not have such a strange feeling.

However, Wu Li did not.

He neither complained about his mother's ****, nor expressed his boredom, but told Lu Ran about his mother's past, her unhappy childhood, and her loneliness.

He understands his mother.

His mother may have been very restrained to him, but he also loved his mother.

This reminded Lu Ran of the old saying, Zhou Yu beats Huang Gai, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer.

If Wu Li understood his mother, loved his mother, and was willing to endure his mother's constraints, there should have been no contradictory feelings.

But why, did he show such a smile, that smile, from the heart, not happy.

This is the contradiction that Lu Ran felt.

To be precise, it was Wu Li's own contradictions, which were just keenly felt by Lu Ran.

Loving his mother, why is it contradictory?

"Did your mother do anything?" Lu Ran then asked, "Or, let me change the question, how did you and your girlfriend, Xue Li, separate?"

Lu Ran's question hit Wu Li's heart for the second time, and at this moment, the damp and hot feeling in his eyes suddenly seeped into his nasal cavity.

"She forced me. His voice trembled.

"Who?, who forced you?" Lu Ran's question hit that position again and again, Wu Li didn't resist, he had forgotten to resist.

"Mother. ”

"What she asks you to do. ”

"Let her go, never appear in front of her mother, leave my world forever. ”

"You did what she said?"

"I don't want to...... I don't!" Wu Li's emotion became more and more excited, he lowered his head, and the dampness was about to flow out of his eyes.

Lu Ran didn't fully understand whether he was obedient to his mother in this matter.

Wu Li calmed himself down, wiped the corners of his eyes, and said, "I didn't agree." But she forced me to do it. ”

"And then?"

Then, she left. ”

Wu Li still lowered his head, although his head was not raised, Lu Ran was sure that his expression at this time should be painful.

This kind of pain may be a complex expression intertwined with reluctance, heartache, guilt, etc., which is difficult to describe.

"Thinking of Shirley, how are you feeling?"

"I'm sorry for her. I deceived her. ”

It's guilt.

As he spoke, he covered his face with his hands.

"Do you blame your mother for this?"

Covering his face, he still shook it.

"Nope. ”
