Chapter 100: Xiang Ming
The next day, Saturday, Xiang Ming lay in bed for a while as usual, because he drank too much wine yesterday, he was still slightly drunk in the morning. He closed the curtains, rolled over again, and fell asleep. I don't know how long later, Xiang Ming's mother entered the room and pulled the quilt to wake Xiang Ming up.
Xiang Ming's mother, Li Fen, is in her early fifties, her hair is gray but wavy, and she has a refreshing smile on her thin face.
She was also a little distressed at the moment for her son to wake up early, but she had to do it, Xiang Ming's father suffered from Alzheimer's disease, and it was difficult to have the opportunity to be alone with Xiang Ming for a while only on Saturdays.
"Xiang Ming, breakfast is ready, and your father is waiting for you in the restaurant. After eating, you take him around the park, and he's been talking about it for days. β
Xiang Ming opened his misty sleepy eyes and glanced at his mother, who was bending over and looking at him with a smile on her face. Xiang Ming got up and waved his hand, "Mom, I know, I'll get up." β
Xiang Ming got dressed and walked out of the bedroom, just as he saw his father Xiang Chong standing at the window and looking out of the window, the background was a little older and lonely, and his heart couldn't help but feel a little sour.
Two years ago, Xiang Ming's father was just 60 years old, but he often had symptoms of being in a daze, forgetting things, and talking upside down. Xiang Ming has been recognized as the child with the highest IQ no matter where he has been since he was a child, he has excellent grades in school, and he usually handles problems more carefully, how can he accept such a fact. "Alzheimer's disease" is really a terrible word, he suffered from this disease at a young age, and his family also hid it everywhere and never mentioned his illness. And Xiang Ming also knew that this disease was hereditary, and he also inquired from his mother, and the nearly three generations of Xiang's family did have similar examples, and that patient was Xiang Ming's third grandfather. It's just that the third grandfather died early, and Xiang Ming is not very sensible, so he doesn't have any impression in his memory. He was also worried that this kind of thing would happen to him one day.
Xiang Ming is indeed smart, and his friends with him, including in the company, his colleagues have given him the nickname "Old Fox", although there is also a derogatory meaning, but Xiang Ming is always proud to accept it. Whether it is on power, job seeking, or seeking work, Xiang Ming absolutely wins the whole game, which makes Gao Yang and them envious. What is the specific IQ of Cheng dΓΉ, I also took the test when I was in college, with a score of 160, and there are more than 2,000 students in the school, which can be regarded as a proud son.
Xiang Ming came out of the bathroom, and his father was already standing at the door waiting for him. He wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth with a towel and helped him to the chair of the dining table with both hands.
"Dad, what do you want to eat?"
Xiang Chong pointed at the cucumber on the plate, and Xiang Ming used chopsticks to pick a piece into his bowl, "Dad, after eating in a while, I'll go out for a walk with you." β
"Oh." Xiang Ming's eyes were glazed, and then he smiled warmly.
The warmth of the morning sun shone on the dining table, and the hearts of several people warmed up. Xiang Ming's father was obviously a handsome guy when he was young, and Zhou Zheng's face did not have a few more wrinkles, but after years of polishing, he had a little more quiet charm. Because it is early Alzheimer's disease, and it is found to be more consistent with medication, the symptoms are not obvious, but if there are relatives who come to visit the house, they can cope with it without saying a few words.
Xiang Ming's mother Li Fen sat down, looked at the warm father-son group, and smiled.
"By the way, Xiang Ming, is the girl you mentioned the day before yesterday still dating?"
"It's not in a relationship, it's completely broken."
"That's right, you must not find that kind of girl to pass through the door, I will never agree, if you dare to bring her home, don't blame me for being rude, beat her out in front of you."
"Mom, you don't need to mention it, I know everything."
"That's good, how can a family with her conditions be worthy of our family? How can we say that we are also from the city, we have a house, a job and a pension, if you look at the house, we will buy it, and then find you a girl with a stable job. Look at what their family looks like, rural, poor jingle, not graduated from a prestigious university, the job is not very good, how good can it be? Don't you know, there are a lot of things to do in the countryside, and they haven't been together for long, you see, the seven aunts and eight aunts have to run here one by one, and they all have to drag your family down in the end. Not to mention the old man in her family, a widow, there are many rights and wrongs. Shall I not run to your house and start providing food and shelter? β
"Mom, I know, can I not do what you say?"
"I'm here to remind you, I'm afraid that the girl will do some tricks, and she will not forgive you and entangle you endlessly. Tell you, you can't be soft-hearted, otherwise you will dig a hole for your life. β
"Yesterday I heard that she still has a child?"
"What?" Li Fen opened her mouth wide and looked at Xiang Ming, "Look, I said it, she is definitely not a good person." β
"yes, not a good person." Father Xiang Chong, who had been silent, also interjected.
"That's right, our family Xiang Ming is so smart, and he still has a clear grasp of these life events.
By the way, there is a big event I almost forgot, your aunt found a girl for you, she is a primary school teacher, and her parents are engaged in government affairs in the school, so she is a good child of a serious family. Your aunt has already told others about the conditions of our family, but their family agrees very much, and they have said it, as long as their daughter likes it, they will agree. The photos are all given to me, she looks handsome, and at first glance she is a delicate yellow flower girl. β
As he spoke, Li Fen took out his mobile phone, clicked on a photo, and handed it to Xiang Ming, "See, it's good-looking!" Oh, if you get her done, the stone in my mother's heart will fall to the ground, and our family will burn high incense again. β
Li Fen said, hehe, laughing, a little happy.
