Chapter 224: See the Last Side
After Xiao Ai finished the meal, she helped me to sit down at the stone table in the courtyard, and she asked me, "Would you like some beer?" ”
"I want to drink, but I'm afraid that the food you cook won't be able to drink."
I thought that this kind of ridicule was enough to make Xiao Ai ridicule her, but I didn't want her to take off her apron, and replied: "Then I'll go to the alley to buy you some cold dishes." ”
I was a little stunned, because I had known her for a short time, she had never shown such a gentle side, and in my eyes, she was a woman who could make indifference greater than life.
Xiao Ai wasn't joking with me, she took some change from her purse and walked towards the alley outside the courtyard gate.
……
Before Xiao Ai came back, Maodou pulled his mother to my courtyard, and then said to me: "Second bridge, my mother is here, you hurry up and tell her...... I want to learn piano. ”
Edamame's mother asked me in distress, "Ehashi, what's going on?" As soon as I got home, our edamame had to learn piano with me as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and all he thought about in his head was dancing knives and guns, and he didn't look like a child with artistic cells! ”
In the face of Edamame's mother, of course, I can't fool around, I said to her sincerely: "Now we are emphasizing Su zhì education, let children learn more talents, and they can also have one more choice in the future, and music is very self-cultivation, especially the piano, I think that learning some more elegant arts is conducive to cultivating children's good aesthetics...... What do you think? ”
At this time, Xiao Ai, who came back from buying cold vegetables, also stood beside us, she took Edamame's hand, smiled and said to Edamame's mother: "I think this kid is very talented in playing the piano, you see his fingers are very slender, very suitable for playing the piano......" She said and turned to Edamame and said, "Edamame, can you separate your fingers in two?" ”
"Is that so?"
Without waiting for Xiao Ai to demonstrate, Edamame separated his fingers in two, Xiao Ai asked him to put his three fingers together, and the other one was separated, and he did it very lightly.
Xiao Ai said to his mother again: "The child is very talented in learning piano, his sense of coordination is very good, and his sense of musicality should not be too bad, he is really a good seedling!" ”
Edamame's mother pulled Edamame to her side to look left and right, and then smiled and asked Xiao Ai, "Really?" ”
Xiao Ai nodded with certainty.
"Well, I've long been thinking about letting him learn a talent, this kid is too skinny, I hope that after learning the piano, he can change his active temperament...... By the way, is it your piano shop? ”
I hurriedly replied: "Well, it is being renovated, and if the progress is fast, it will be able to officially teach in half a month." ”
"Okay, when you open, give me a call, and I'll take Edamame to sign ......up," Edamame's mother said and was about to take Edamame away.
I had dinner with Xiao Ailiu, she shook her head and said to us: "You're welcome, I'm going to take edamame to his grandmother's house soon, my parents can't see him for a week, so I can't think about it!" ”
We didn't keep it any longer, and when Edamame left, he asked me worriedly, "Futahashi, I'm going to learn piano right away, you won't become lame, will you?" ”
Edamame's mother looked at me inexplicably, I was a little embarrassed to be thick-skinned enough, after all, I took advantage of the child's innocence.
When he got a reply from me that he would not be lame, Edamame was relieved to follow his mother away. Looking at his back being spoiled by his parents, grandparents, and even grandparents, I seemed to see my own life again...... That's how my loneliness came, and then I looked back at Xiao Ai next to me, how could she be.
None of us have ever seen what our grandma and grandpa are like.
Therefore, we must cherish this qiē in front of us, and the warmth we give each other in life is the real warmth, because there are not many people in this world who are willing to give us warmth with sincerity!
……
At the stone table, Xiao Ai and I sat opposite each other, she was a woman who could drink, so she also accompanied me to drink the bottled beer, and we chatted without a word. In the process, I told her the news that Su Han and Qin Miao were going to meet here later, and she didn't specifically say that she wanted to avoid the grievances between the two of them.
When dinner was about to end, Qin Miao came to my small courtyard before Su Han, today she wore a very normal coat, and did not deliberately make herself look like a pregnant woman, in order to gain an advantage in the negotiation later.
After Qin Miao looked around, she asked me, "Hasn't she come yet?" ”
"It should be almost there, I made an appointment at half past eight, and you were in advance."
Qin Miao sat down on the stone bench, and I asked her, "Is Qiao Ye still locked up by his parents?" ”
"Shut it up."
As Qiao Ye's brother, I was a little unhappy in my heart, so I said to Qin Miao: "It's a Guan Tiao dog, and I have to pull it out occasionally to let it go, not to mention that Qiao Ye is such a big living person...... It's not that I said, sometimes his dad owes a little bit for doing things! ”
Qin Miao looked at me for a while before sighing and replied, "Don't shout and scream like you are angry...... His father is also under pressure in this matter, if I really divorce Qiao Ye in the end, this loss is not something he can bear! ”
I can understand what Qin Miao wants to express, Qiao Yejia's group can have today's status in the construction industry, and the reason is tacitly understood by everyone. It must have been Qin Miao's parents who put a lot of pressure on Qiao Ye's family, so his father did such an extreme approach.
I chose to shut up, and then lit a cigarette a little depressed, and Xiao Ai never said a word, which is normal, if I am an outsider, then she is even more an outsider, after all, I have no friendship with them.
……
Su Han finally came, and she and Qin Miao were both seeing each other for the first time. At this moment, the expressions of the two were the same, their eyes were filled with too much bitterness and helplessness, for each other, they were like a sharp blade, stabbing each other in the most vulnerable places.
There were no extra words, and after Qin Miao got up, he said directly to Su Han: "I asked you out today, there is no other purpose, I just hope that everyone can calmly put the rights and wrongs of these years on the table to talk." ”
Su Han looked at Qin Miao, she didn't have much language, she just nodded. I could already foresee that she was at a disadvantage in a conversation that seemed unmalicious. Because, she received 2 million from Qiao Ye's family back then, but in the end she failed to keep her promise.
The two of them never sat down, Su Han looked at Qin Miao's lower abdomen, and avoided his gaze.
After a period of silence, Qin Miao finally said to Su Han in a low tone: "Qiao Ye has been willful enough in the past six months...... You left China and drifted around, but you didn't think about what happened in Nanjing, and how many people were exhausted by it...... Su Han, we are both pathetic women, so you should know my feelings better than anyone else...... Back then, you received 2 million from my mother-in-law and had a verbal agreement. However, three years later, you took Qiao Ye away from me, this is your injustice first, but we have never told anyone about the 2 million things on the surface, because this is our bottom line, we don't want such things to become the laughing stock of public opinion, but where is your bottom line? ”
Su Han's expression was a little sluggish, she expressed the guilt in her heart with silence, and the only thing that supported her was a desire for love, which made her seem lonely.
Qin Miao said again: "Now that I have Qiao Ye's child, this is already a well-known thing in the city. You should understand that as long as Qiao Ye chooses to go back to Nanjing, he will not have a chance to go again...... I once thought about divorcing Qiao Ye and fulfilling you, but the nature of our marriage does not allow me to do this, even if I try hard, I can't win this freedom. What's more, I can't bear to watch my own child face a broken family from birth...... Su Han, I really want to remind you that you can be unrighteous yourself, but you must not trap Qiao Ye in unkindness again, and when he looks back and understands, he will hate you...... Because love is not the most reliable feeling in the world, people's hearts will eventually return to their roots! ”
Su Han lowered her head, and when she raised her head again, there were already tears in her eyes, but she said to Qin Miao with a smile: "Seeing you, I finally know why Qiao Ye's mother likes you instead of me...... Because the way you speak is so much like that...... What you just said, she probably meant the same thing back then, which made me embarrassed and made me have to leave......"
Qin Miao took a few more steps in front of Su Han, her eyes were full of fierceness, and my heart tightened, thinking that she was carried away by resentment and wanted to do something to Su Han.
But I didn't want to the next moment, Qin Miao made a move that still shocked me when I thought about it many years later!
She held her lower abdomen, slowly squatted on the ground, and then knelt in front of Su Han, and said with great difficulty: "I know...... You are a kind woman, but you were just bewitched by Qiao Ye's impulsiveness...... But this qiē is going to return to rationality after all, isn't it? …… I beg you to spare Qiao Ye, let me go, let me and his children and two families go...... Also, let yourself go, okay? …… If we continue to be entangled like this, none of us will end well! ”
I don't know what Su Han's mood is at this moment, but as a bystander, the frequency of my heartbeat has increased, because Su Han has no room to refuse.
I finally knew why Qiao Ye's parents were desperately trying to keep Qin Miao, their daughter-in-law. Because her personality is unique among women, Qiao Ye's industry can only be carried forward in her hands, but Su Han is too weak and too weak compared to her!
The painful choice brought Su Han to tears, and her shadow was so lonely and helpless under the street lamp......
She finally wiped away her tears and whispered, "I'm willing to quit...... Since then, he has settled abroad, and he will never have the slightest contact with Qiao Ye...... However, before I leave Nanjing, please let me see Qiao Ye one last time...... May I? ”
Qin Miao stretched out her hand to me, my feet were inconvenient, it was Xiao Ai who helped her up from the ground, she hesitated a little, and then replied to Su Han: "I promise you...... I'll figure it out, but I hope you don't let me down! ”
Su Han nodded, her heart seemed to be dead, and then she walked out of the courtyard without looking back......
Suddenly, Xiao Ai, who had not spoken, walked behind her in a few steps, then held her hand tightly, and asked, "You really won't regret making this decision?" ”
Su Han looked at Xiao Ai for a long time before she shook her head, and she replied in a hoarse voice: "Perhaps, love is really not the most reliable feeling in the world, and people's hearts have to return to their roots after all...... Instead of despairing together, let's make everyone feel better. ”
……
Su Han had already left, and I suddenly understood that from the moment she agreed to meet Qin Miao, she already knew in her heart what kind of result she would get!
However, what made her choose to give up completely was the righteous words that Qin Miao had just said, or was there something else?
I faced the mysterious night and fell into deep thought.
