This weekend, Zhuxi did not work overtime but chose to go back to his home in City B.

Although City B is only a little more than four hours' drive from City S, Zhuxi is inconvenient to go to work every day, so he has to move out alone. Basically, I go back once a month, and every time I go home, it's like a festival, and my father and mother kill chickens and cook early.

But when I went back this time, my mother was the only one in the house, and she went around the house, but she still didn't find her father. So, I walked back to the kitchen and leaned on the refrigerator, "Mom, where's my dad?" He was not seen in the study. ”

Zhu's mother turned off the fire on the gas stove, "Your dad went to the class reunion today." ”

"Class reunion?" Zhuxi suddenly became curious, and helped hand the dinner plate to Zhu's mother, "Middle school reunion, or elementary school?" ”

Because the family was not wealthy at that time, Zhuxi's parents did not have much cultural education. Compared with the mothers who have not graduated from elementary school, the fathers are good, and they can survive until they graduate from junior high school.

"Middle school class reunion, in the city No. 1 middle school. Your dad and many of his classmates who had a good time back then haven't seen each other for decades, and it's estimated that they won't be back until late. Mother Zhu put up the fried spicy chicken, turned off the gas, and then walked out.

"We'll eat by ourselves, and we'll go sit down with your aunt after dinner. Last week, Nannan's 10th birthday, you didn't have time to come back, but she talked to me and your dad about you. Zhu's mother put the food on the table and waited for Zhuxi to come out with the dishes and chopsticks.

"I know, I'll be back, but I've brought back all the birthday presents for Nannan." Zhuxi followed her mother to sit down and eat.

Zhuxi's mother has two older brothers, and Zhuxi's aunt was born to her grandmother when she was in her forties, and Zhuxi's mother was fifteen years old at that time. Because of this age difference, Zhu's mother has been bringing up her little sister on behalf of her parents, and the relationship between the two sisters is particularly good, and she lived in her sister's house before Zhuxi's aunt didn't have a job.

From childhood to adulthood, from the time Zhuxi was conscious, it was my aunt who took herself. Zhuxi has always felt that there seems to be an indescribable connection between relatives. My aunt grew up with my mother, and she grew up with my aunt.

Zhuxi's aunt is much luckier than Zhu's mother, she has been taken care of by her brothers and sisters since she was a child, and she graduated from secondary school and served as a sixth-grade class teacher in a primary school in City B. After a few years of work, Free Love married the director of the middle school in City B.

For this young aunt, Zhuxi has always been obedient to her before she went to college, and felt that all her words were the truth. Later, she fell in love with Li Yingfan, because after listening to her aunt's opinion, she almost became a passerby in Li Yingfan's life.

No, probably not even a passerby.

For this reason, Zhuxi was angry with her aunt for a while.

After dinner, Zhuxi drove her mother to her aunt's house first.

As soon as the car drove into the independent faculty apartment of the city's No. 1 Middle School, Zhuxi saw her aunt waiting for them downstairs from afar, and kept waving her arms at them.

Zhu's mother glanced at her little sister, and said to Zhuxi helplessly: "Your aunt has lived more and more in the past few years, and every time she comes to her, she is as happy as a child, for fear that she will jump on her body and ask you for candy." ”

Hearing her mother's words, Zhuxi couldn't help laughing, "Auntie is rare for you." ”

After saying that, her car also came to a stop.

The aunt immediately stepped forward to help Zhu's mother open the door, "Sister, why did you come here, I have been waiting for so long." ”

Zhuxi got out of the car with a smile and quipped, "Auntie, do you think our two families are next door?" Just knock on the door and you're there. ”

"I would like to live next door to your house, but your uncle-in-law will guard this faculty area for the rest of his life." The aunt let go of Zhu's mother, turned around and hugged Zhuxi, "You girl, you're busy with that bit of work all day long, and you don't even want to go home, right?" ”

"Isn't this coming back?" Zhuxi was afraid that Auntie would not be able to talk about it, so she quickly interrupted, "Auntie, you just let me and my mother chat with you downstairs?" ”

Auntie patted her head at this time, "Look at me, I'm so happy." Hurry upstairs, Nan Nan heard that you were coming, finished her homework early, didn't even watch TV, and kept in front of the window. ”

Mother Zhu remembered her cute appearance, and couldn't help laughing: "It's not like you, it's all urgent." ”

The three of them talked all the way upstairs, and when Zhuxi entered the aunt's house, they found that Nan Nan had indeed been sitting in front of the window of the living room as the aunt said, stretching her neck and poking out.

It was the sound of them entering the door that turned Nannan's attention, and when she saw Zhuxi at a glance, she was so happy that she didn't even have time to put on her slippers, so she rushed over directly and hugged Zhuxi.

"Sister, you've finally come to play with me."

Zhuxi let her hold herself enough, and then took her to sit in the living room. He took the gift he had prepared earlier from his mother and handed it to Nannan, "Nannan's tenth birthday, I'm sorry that my sister didn't have time to come back." This is a birthday present for you, open it and see. ”

Nan Nan was originally a little complaining, but when she saw the beautifully packaged gift box in Zhuxi's hand, she forgot about her unhappiness, grinned and took the gift box with anticipation, and softly agreed, "Okay." ”

The gift that Zhuxi prepared for Nan Nan was a white princess dress, the hem of the skirt was fluffy, and the overall design was novel and cute. As soon as she took a look, she clamored to try it on. Zhuxi originally planned to take Nan Nan to the room to try on clothes, but Zhu's mother took the lead. Zhuxi looked at the figure of Zhu's mother and Nan Nan leaving, and a thick uneasiness suddenly rose in his heart.

She turned around lightly, and sure enough, she saw her aunt coming out of the kitchen, holding two cups of coffee in her hand, and smiling very malice at her.

Zhuxi took the coffee handed by her aunt, didn't drink it, and tried to divert her aunt's attention, "Auntie, where did my sister-in-law go?" Isn't he taking a holiday today? ”

"He went to the market to buy groceries."

Auntie was very simple and perfunctory, and then pulled Zhuxi back to sit on the sofa, "Auntie has something to say to you, you sit down, let's have a good chat." ”

Zhuxi could probably guess the next chat content, almost every time she went home, her aunt had to take over such a chat task from her mother. Every time, I just said that it was a good chat, but every time I talked about it, it became a coercion and temptation.

Thinking of this, Zhuxi was shocked, took a sip of coffee, and then said honestly: "Auntie, if you want to talk to me about the same content as last time, I really have no interest at all." ”

Auntie's originally soft face suddenly became stern, and she held Zhuxi's hand and didn't let go, "What do you mean that you are not interested at all?" ”

Zhuxi: "Literally. ”

"I don't understand." The aunt didn't give face, and made a stop gesture directly to Zhuxi, and then put down the coffee cup in her hand, and the whole person faced Zhuxi. I have been teaching and educating people for many years, and the posture of reprimand comes as soon as I say it.

"That's right, I'm still going to talk to you about your marriage today. Your mother's eloquence can't say anything about you, and your father is not at home, only me, the aunt, worries about you. ”

"Auntie......" Zhuxi's head hurt when she heard those words.

"Don't call me, it's useless for you to call me 'aunt'." The aunt was resolute, put her feet together, pointed at Zhuxi with her finger, and went directly to the topic without giving her a chance to react, "How long have you been divorced from Li Yingfan?" ”

The corners of Zhuxi's mouth twitched, not wanting to answer.

"It's been more than a year, right?" The aunt herself answered for her, "What did you tell me when you divorced before?" There is no grass at the end of the world, and the man who chases you must be counted by a truck. ”

At that time, he was young and frivolous, and what he said is very funny when he thinks about it now. Zhuxi was particularly surprised that he was so brazen.

"And now? What about those trucks? The aunt spread her hands towards Zhuxi, and at this time she looked almost exactly the same as a certain elementary school teacher who had criticized her fiercely in the classroom before, except for a teaching stick.

Zhuxi is magnificent, and I don't know how to explain those 'trucks'.

"The last time I talked to you about these things, I could see that you still don't give up on Li Yingfan."

Zhuxi didn't expect her aunt to say her careful thoughts so directly, and she was a little panicked, so she couldn't help but ask, "Is it so obvious?" ”

"Look, I'll just cheat casually, and you will confess obediently." The aunt looked at Zhuxi with a sad expression, "You sue me, what's so good about that man?" ”

This question was asked very specifically, and Zhuxi didn't have to think about it at all, and the answer could be blurted out, "There is nothing bad about him." ”

The aunt looked at her in disbelief, "Are you stupid for me?" There is nothing bad about him, what kind of marriage do you divorce him? ”

Zhuxi smiled weakly, and then prepared to get up, "Auntie, I'll go to the room to see Nannan, she must look good in the dress I gave." ”

"Stop." The aunt stopped her in an unkind tone, and then lifted one leg and put it on Zhuxi's legs, completely suppressing her body and preventing her from getting up from the sofa.

"Before, you divorced Li Yingfan, I believe part of the reason was because of his unreasonable mother. But what about the other part? No matter how your parents, me and your uncle-in-law ask you, you won't answer. The aunt clasped her hands to her chest, "It doesn't matter, after all, the number of divorced couples in China every day can't be counted." It's not that we don't care about the reason for your divorce, we just care more about your life after divorce. Why, when we don't ask you why you divorced, you are ready to sue me now, in fact, you are waiting to get back together with Li Yingfan? ”

Zhuxi shook her head no, nodded no, and didn't dare to look at her aunt's eyes, afraid that those sharp eyes would peek into all the secrets in her heart at a glance, leaving no room for it.

"Freedom to marry, I have nothing to say."

"Yo, barristers, you are still struggling with me about the freedom to marry." The aunt raised her eyebrows, her face was cold, and she only hated Zhuxi in her heart for not having any interest at all, "Now give you two choices, or forget about that man, fall in love again, and meet the right person to properly consider marriage." Here's what your mom thinks. ”

She paused for a moment, and then continued to add: "Another option is to ask Li Yingfan, if he also has the intention of getting back together, you bring him back, and our family will sit down and have a good talk." Well, that's my thoughts. ”

Zhuxi and the other aunts also said their thoughts, and replied eagerly: "Can I not choose?" ”

"No, you can't."
