Chapter 157: Mother and Son

Guo Haodong was shocked when he saw that his mother's face was so serious, even heavy, and hurriedly followed her out of the tent where Yang Nannan was recuperating. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Mom, what the hell is going on? Could it be that Nan Nan's condition is very serious? As soon as Guo Haodong and his mother stopped, he asked eagerly.

Li Suqin shook her head, but when she saw her son's face full of anxiety, she was very relieved, and couldn't help but say: "Haodong, seeing that you care about Nan Nan very much now, I am happy in my heart." ”

Guo Haodong was slightly embarrassed, and replied a little secretly: "She is my legal daughter-in-law after all." If something happens to her, neither you nor I can explain it to her father. ”

Li Suqin relaxed her expression and said in a gentle tone: "I asked the doctor just now, Nan Nan's injury is not very serious, although he rolled down from such a high place, fortunately he did not hurt his bones, and there was only a skin injury all over his body. Fortunately, the medical facilities here are relatively complete and can deal with her injuries. The main reason for her current collapse is fatigue. Especially in the last two days, she has almost stayed awake all night and has to rest quietly. ”

Guo Haodong couldn't tell what it was like in his heart, and he seemed to understand why Yang Nannan hadn't sent a message to herself for two consecutive nights recently, it turned out that her work was too busy.

He thought for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Since she usually sleeps late, why do you add work to her?" ”

Li Suqin shook her head: "No one has added work to her, this is because the relatives of several employees in our unit have also suffered misfortune, and they have all asked for leave to help their relatives." So, our power here has diminished suddenly. And the resettlement of the victims could not be stopped for a moment, so she worked without sleep or food. ”

Guo Haodong shook his head gloomily: "She is really a stupid girl, in order to help others, she doesn't cherish herself at all." ”

Li Suqin said solemnly: "She is indeed stupid, but this is due to her kindness by nature. Don't you think such a girl is cute? ”

Guo Haodong seemed to have guessed the reason why his mother was talking to him, and he couldn't help but hang his head, but his heart couldn't calm down for a moment.

Li Suqin said with a serious expression at this time: "Haodong, let me ask you solemnly, when you got along with Lan Lan abroad, did you touch her?" ”

Guo Haodong's heart sank, and after thinking for a while, he shook his head: "Strictly speaking, I haven't touched her, although there are some intimate actions. ”

Li Suqin's face was a little feverish, her eyes moistened, and she suddenly said in a pleading tone: "Haodong, I beg you, just treat Lan Lan as a sister." Don't develop a relationship with her again, okay? ”

Guo Haodong was stunned: "Why?" Is it because of Nan Nan? ”

Li Suqin wanted to tell Lan Lan's life experience, but she was afraid that if her son knew the truth, he would lose his breath and cause an uproar. She doesn't even have a chance to tell Yang Chongqi the truth now, so how can she rashly tell her son? She doesn't want her son to know about his @ cheating experience when he was young. So, her expression was tangled for a moment, and finally echoed her son's words: "Yes." I think Nan Nan is more suitable to be your daughter-in-law. She has a heart of gold. I will be sincere to you in the future. Now that her father has passed away soon, you will be her spiritual pillar in the future. If you snub her and alienate her, it will hurt her the most. Can you bear to let her be hurt? Although that Lan Lan is also very good, as long as your relationship with her has not developed to that point, it is completely possible to change. But Nan Nan in front of him was not allowed to be innocently harmed. ”

Guo Haodong's heart was in turmoil, and his face was painful: "Mom, I listened to your words, please give me a little time and let me think about it, okay?" ”

Li Suqin's heart was very nervous, her mouth opened a few times, and finally found a voice: "Haodong, I can give you time, but not for you to choose, but to give you a process of accepting Nan Nan." From your behavior today, I can already see that you are reluctant to Nan Nan. Therefore, you must be emotionally decisive and quickly explain it to Lan Lan. After all, she still has Li Shunxi. ”

Guo Haodong looked at his mother in amazement: "Do you also know Li Shunxi?" ”

Li Suqin smiled indifferently: "Since our Civil Affairs Bureau has listed the old Chen family as a target for assistance, don't I, as the director, know that Li Shunxi is helping Lan Lan take care of her parents?" ”

Guo Haodong suddenly realized, but explained: "But Lan Lan doesn't love Xiao Li." In order to help Lan Lan compensate him, I have brought him from the countryside to the city, and arranged a high-paying job for him, which is worthy of him. ”

Li Suqin sighed: "I already know the news that you picked up Lan Lan's parents from the countryside, but I didn't expect you to take advantage of your power to go through the back door to arrange a job for Li Shunxi." Do you know what this behavior is? ”

Guo Haodong was unconvinced: "I'm not nepotism, I feel that Xiao Li is a talent, so I hired him without sticking to one pattern." Besides, there is an undercurrent within Jingfeng Company, and I need to inject fresh blood into the company. ”

Li Suqin was taken aback: "Isn't Jingfeng Company operating very well?" How could there be a problem? ”

Guo Haodong smiled bitterly: "Mom, haven't you heard that the more prosperous you are, the more unspeakable secrets exist?" Lee Soon-hee had no intention of helping me clean up the company, and I didn't use the wrong person. Besides, isn't it the same for Nan Nan? Doesn't her current hard work also prove that you are not 'crony'? ”

Li Suqin's face was a little feverish, but she quickly changed the topic: "Haodong, let's not talk about 'cronyism' first, let's talk about your so-called compensation for Li Shunxi, do you think that giving him a good job can balance his dedication to the Lanlan family in the past few years?" Is the material reward equivalent to making up for the emotional effort? ”

"This..." Guo Haodong lowered his head again.

Li Suqin groaned for a while, and couldn't help complaining: "Lan Lan didn't do it right, she didn't understand true love at all." It would be a big mistake for her to develop a relationship with you when Li Shunxi has paid so much for her. ”

Guo Haodong raised his head in amazement: "Why do you say that?" Does she have to sacrifice her feelings to accept Xiao Li, just understand love? ”

Li Suqin said solemnly: "If you think that love is just a luxury, then you are defiling love." True love needs to be given first, then receiving, and even needs to have a spirit of sacrifice. It's probably a little more bitter than sweet. Didn't Lee Soon-hee do that? But what about her? Treat love completely as a personal feeling, and act on subjective will. When she thinks differently and asks you to replace Li Shunxi, she should be condemned by her conscience. And you, on the wrong path, are fueling the fire. As a result, even you gave up what you should cherish and had a complete false love with her! ”

Guo Haodong gasped, and then defended: "Mom, after all, I know Lan Lan first, if Nan Nan comes into my life first." I'm not going to pursue Lanlan. Actually, Lan Lan is not what you think. She originally rejected me at the beginning, but she couldn't stand my reasoning with her affection, so that she could understand that love is not to repay gratitude. ”

Li Suqin smiled bitterly: "If love doesn't know how to repay, it's really a product of selfishness and narrow-mindedness." So what do we still envision it to do? ”

This is the first time Guo Haodong has discussed love with his mother, and when he heard her opinions, he couldn't help but be a little disgusted: "Mom, how do you define love?" ”

Li Suqin pondered for a while before solemnly saying: "Love is the broadest thing, it is caused by everyone's different emotional experiences, and its connotation is constantly changing. So, it's not something that can be summed up in one word. But it is inseparable from gratitude, morality, sacrifice, and even adult beauty. And like you and Lan Lan, who don't care about hurting more relatives around you and get what you need, is definitely not the love we advocate and yearn for. ”

When Li Suqin said this, she inadvertently remembered her feelings for Yang Chongqi when she was young, and couldn't help moistening her eyes.

However, her words injected a sense of reason into Guo Haodong, who was still confused, and also increased his decisive attitude.

"Mom, maybe I was wrong, I was a little emotional at the time. After listening to what you said, I know better what to do. ”

Li Suqin listened to her son's very pious words, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Haodong, have you really thought about it?" ”

Guo Haodong nodded seriously: "Please rest assured." I will take good care of Nan Nan and will not hurt her again. ”

Li Suqin cried with joy: "Haodong... Is this true? ”

Guo Haodong was silent for a while before he said calmly: "My love for Lan Lan may not change suddenly because of some changes. But you're right, love requires sacrifice. Between Nan Nan and Lan Lan, I already know what to do, who to bury in my heart and keep it as a kind of nostalgia, and who to take care of by my side, and spend my life together. ”

Li Suqin wiped away her excited tears, and nodded emotionally: "Haodong, my mother didn't mistake you." You are such a good man who dares to take responsibility. Nan Nan is a girl worthy of your love for a lifetime. I'm also happy for Nan Nan. ”

Guo Haodong didn't understand why his mother had such a big complex for Nan Nan, and he was puzzled for a while before he said softly: "Mom, it's time for me to go back to accompany Nan Nan." ”

Li Suqin nodded: "Well, you finally came to the disaster area, just stay here to accompany Nan Nan for a day." ”

Guo Haodong didn't say anything more, turned around and walked to the tent where Nan Nan was recuperating.

"Haodong!" Li Suqin waited for her son to take a few steps, and suddenly shouted emotionally.

Guo Haodong suddenly looked back: "Do you still have something?" ”

Li Suqin smiled kindly at her son: "Haodong, I just feel that your feelings have completely matured now, and I still want to tell you - true love is to cherish the person who is sincere to you with your life, and after going through a lot of ups and downs, you can still say 'I love you' to each other." The change in your feelings for Nan Nan now is not sympathy, but love. It's not an illusion of love at first sight, but an experience that resonates with it. Only this kind of love can last forever. ”

Guo Haodong didn't reply, but cast a grateful look at his mother.

Yang Nannan waited in the tent for a long time before Guo Haodong walked in.

"Brother Haodong, is there anything important in the company?" She asked eagerly first.

Guo Haodong shook his head inexplicably: "No." Why do you think that? ”

Yang Nannan reminded: "Didn't you go out just now to answer a call from the company?" And after going for so long, isn't there something important? ”

Guo Haodong let out an "oh" before he thought of the reason why he left Nan Nan just now.

Yang Nannan looked very entangled between his eyebrows at this time, but he still spoke bravely: "Brother Haodong, if the company has something important, you can leave me alone, hurry back and get down to business." ”

Guo Haodong had already noticed her reluctance to herself, but she had a spirit of abandonment, and she couldn't help but be moved, so she covered it up: "Don't worry about me." I've got everything in place for the company and can stay here with you for a day. ”

When Yang Nannan heard this, he suddenly regained a youthful brilliance: "Really? That's great. ”

Guo Haodong looked down at the half bowl of leftover porridge, and realized that he hadn't finished feeding her yet.

When he approached and picked up the half bowl of leftover porridge, he felt that the residual porridge in the bowl was already cold, so he discussed with her: "Nan Nan, this bowl of porridge is already cold." Shall I help you warm it up first? ”

Yang Nannan shook his head gently: "I've already eaten it." You don't have to bother. Even if I tried to heat it up, I wouldn't be able to eat it. ”

Guo Haodong let out an "oh" and had to put the half bowl of porridge aside.

He stood up and surveyed the tent, which saw not even a drop of fruit. He couldn't help but regret in his heart - he should have bought some fruit if he knew this was the case.

"Nan Nan, I, what else can I do for you?" Guo Haodong became a little restrained at this time.

Yang Nannan cast an affectionate look at him: "Brother Haodong, I don't need you to do anything for me, as long as you can be by my side." ”

Guo Haodong hesitated for a moment before sitting on the edge of her bed again, and smiled: "Then I'll chat with you." ”

"Hmm." Yang Nannan said excitedly, "It's been a long time since we've had a good chat together." ”

"Really?" Guo Haodong recalled the married life between himself and Nan Nan during this time, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

Yang Nannan's complexion gradually recovered, perhaps because of Guo Haodong's arrival, which injected her with vitality. She asked with interest, "Brother Haodong, what topic do you want to talk to me about?" ”

Guo Haodong hesitated, feeling that it was not the time for Nan Nan to confess to her at present, so he asked with a smile: "Then what topic do you want to talk about?" ”

Yang Nannan blinked his big eyes: "Then listen to me tell me about what I have experienced in the past two days, right?" ”

Guo Haodong immediately nodded: "Okay." I haven't heard from you for two days in a row, and I'd like to know what you've been through. ”

When Yang Nannan heard this, her pretty face suddenly turned red, and she said a little shyly: "Brother Haodong, I'm sorry, I'm a little sticky to you..."

Guo Haodong hurriedly shook his head: "Silly girl, don't think like this. I would like to share your experience with you. You may not know that when I can't receive messages from you for two nights in a row, my heart feels like something is missing, and I don't sleep so well. ”

Yang Nannan was stunned: "Could it be that when I sent the message, you weren't asleep at the time?" ”

Guo Haodong replied calmly: "Except for one of your messages that I didn't find at the time, the rest of the information was read before going to bed." ”

Yang Nannan looked at him in surprise: "Brother Haodong, why did you sleep so late?" Is it to wait for my message? ”

Guo Haodong was embarrassed to confess to her that he interacted with Chen Lanlan every night, so he could only nod and say: "Since I saw your first message, it has made my heart surge." That's why I'm used to waiting for your message every night. ”

Yang Nannan's eyes suddenly turned red: "Then why don't you send me a message back?" ”

Guo Haodong hesitated for a moment, and then said meaningfully: "Of course I want to send you a message back, and I even want to call you." I'm worried that you'll be like me, though, because you will lose sleep when you receive messages. Actually, you sleep late enough every night. Am I still willing not to let you rest as soon as possible? ”

Yang Nannan was a little embarrassed again: "Brother Haodong, my message disturbed your rest, right?" I'm really sorry. ”

Guo Haodong reached out and stroked her smooth cheeks, and couldn't help but laugh and said: "Fool, for a person, if he reduces some sleep because of the warm aftertaste, it will be more comfortable and happy than falling asleep soundly." ”

Yang Nannan's big eyes couldn't help but moisten again: "Brother Haodong, I actually want to see your greetings before going to bed... But I always can't receive it, so I fall asleep in anxiety every night." ”

When Guo Haodong heard this, his face suddenly changed: "Nan Nan, I won't give you a message back, it will really affect your rest." Actually, you're still tired. But what was your concern at the time? ”

Yang Nannan couldn't control her feelings anymore, and replied with sobs: "I... I'm afraid that you know my 'past'...

When Guo Haodong heard this, he couldn't help blurting out - "Silly girl, why do you think so?" I also have a 'past'! ”
