Chapter 7 For the peace of mind
In the blink of an eye, on Friday, after school that day, Su Yang went home and cooked a meal, and then stepped on the urban and rural bus to Yongcheng, Su Yang's mother Huang Jing divorced Su Yongguang in the year he first entered junior high school, and rented a house alone to live in Yongcheng, Su Yang was still young at that time, but he couldn't forget the night when he negotiated the divorce, he cried and asked his parents not to divorce, but at that time he didn't understand anything, and he didn't understand that there were many things that could not be forced.
Su Yang can understand why his mother would rather live alone than continue to endure, he was only twelve years old at that time, maybe several uncles and aunts in Yucheng would hate Su Yongguang to death, many years after that, Su Yang asked his mother if she regretted it, she was not doing well, but she never regretted it.
In his previous life, Su Yongguang didn't want Su Yang to go to Yongcheng to find Huang Jing all the time, and he would get angry every time he mentioned it, so when Su Yang proposed to go to Yongcheng without fear, Su Yongguang's reaction would be so strange.
When the car entered the platform, Su Yang crossed the roads with ease, and the schoolbag full of textbooks behind him was a little heavy, but Su Yang had never been willing to carry it as he was now, and he didn't feel bored.
Yongcheng in 96 years still vaguely maintains the style of the old era, no one would have thought that in another ten years, there will be earth-shaking changes here, the road widened, the buildings were demolished and built, the traffic was busy, Su Yang sighed all the way, and finally came to the destination, an alley that only allowed three people to walk in parallel, and the leaves shaded the above, making the whole alley in a shady environment.
Many years later, it will become the main road to other cities, and it is also a prosperous area, and at this moment, those retro villas are still the envy of many people, and those who can live in them are all big families. Su Yang walked up the stairs, stopped outside a slightly rusty door, and knocked softly.
"Mom!"
The door opened, and Huang Jing was wiping her hands with a cloth, "Xiaoyang, why did you come here today?" Your dad agreed? ”
Su Yang nodded and entered the room of only twenty square meters, "I'll live here this weekend, Mom, are you welcome!" ”
"Not welcome!" Huang Jing smiled and said, "As soon as you come, I have to go grocery shopping again, and you don't have to save some money for your mother." ”
Su Yang grinned and said, "Then mom, you can't bear to let your son eat badly!" ”
"You little ghost, this time has passed, my mother has made less rice, you play by yourself for a while, I'll cook some rice, and then cook two dishes!" Huang Jingdao.
Su Yang shook his head when he heard this, pulled Huang Jing to sit on the edge of the bed, and then took the cross-stitch on the cabinet on the side, and said, "Mom, you just sit and rest for a while, embroider cross-stitch, I'll do it!" ”
"You're going to do it? Forget it, you'll be able to cook a few dishes! Huang Jing said.
Su Yang had already come to the stove when he was talking, looked at some of the ingredients on the shelf, and already had an idea in his heart, "Mom, you look down on me too much, you just have a good rest, watch my son and I show off my skills, and I will surprise you later!" ”
Fifteen-year-old Su Yang only began to learn to cook, and naturally only made the simplest dishes, similar to scrambled eggs with tomatoes and fried vegetables, but now is different from the past, Su Yang in this life has nearly twenty years of cooking experience, and when he went to rent a house outside after graduating from college, he has always bought vegetables and cooked by himself, if there are rich ingredients, even if he cooks a table of dishes, it is not difficult.
Huang Jing was happy, sitting at the head of the bed and making cross-stitch, she was not worried about Su Yang messing up, even if the dishes made were not delicious, she could accept it, no matter how she said it, it was her son's heart, and she had only eaten Su Yang's dishes a few times, of course she didn't want to miss this rare opportunity.
"Why did you bring a schoolbag with you today? When did my son start to love learning? Huang Jing said.
Su Yang didn't stop in his hands, skillfully peeled and shredded a few potatoes, and said in his mouth: "Isn't it good?" Didn't you always want me to study hard and be on par with Brother Xiaofeng? ”
Brother Xiaofeng in Su Yang's mouth is the son of his second aunt, he studies very hard, and his grades have always been the first in the class, and he is now studying in a key high school in Yucheng, and Su Yang also knows that Brother Xiaofeng will be admitted to Peking University in a year. Su Yang has three cousins, Brother Xiaofeng is the best, and the other two cousins are only slightly inferior, one later opened his own interior design company, and the other developed in Shenzhen after the postgraduate examination, and the monthly salary was more than 5,000 in 07!
In comparison, Su Yang is the most unfortunate one, although Huang Jing has always said that her son is the best, but Su Yang knows in her heart that Huang Jing doesn't want Su Yang to get ahead, so that she can stand up among the four sisters, even if her marriage is not smooth.
In his previous life, Su Yang didn't realize Huang Jing's difficulty until he finished college, and this life will inevitably be different, and Su Yang will never let Huang Jing continue to live a hard life, so he wants to surprise his mother, and this surprise will not take long to come true.
"It smells good, I've been out for two years, and your cooking skills have improved!" Huang Jing smelled the aroma of the food, put down the cross-stitch and walked to Su Yang's side, looking at her son's skillful movements, and said in her heart that she was not surprised that it was fake.
Su Yang said with a smile: "I still learned from you how good my cooking skills are, but my father is too busy working every day, so I can only cook, and I will always make a little progress if I do more!" ”
"Is your dad and his daughter still together?" Huang Jing thought for a while and asked.
“……”
"Blowing again?"
Su Yang shook his head, "I don't care about his affairs, and I won't be stupid to call a strange woman's mother again, I haven't seen my family in these days, I should go back to Guangzhou!" ”
"I said, even I can't stand your father, how can other women stand it!" Huang Jing said.
Su Yang sighed when he heard this, turned around and said, "Mom, my son is going to say a few words about you, don't feel unpleasant!" ”
"Say what?" Huang Jing wondered.
"No matter what, he's my father, you're my mother, although the two of you are very wrong now, but don't always count him down in front of me, his character is a little worse, but he still cares about me, but the expression is a little inappropriate. Besides, if you blindly deny a man who has lived with you for fifteen years, you are indirectly denying yourself! ”
Su Yang turned off the fire, took the plate and put the shredded potatoes in the pot on the plate, and said: "My dad won't stop for more than ten years, anyway, you haven't lived with him, so don't count them all at once!" ”
"Huh? Why does my son seem to have suddenly grown up sensible? Huang Jing looked surprised, "You were the one who talked the most before, why are you still protecting him now?" ”
"People will always grow up!" After Su Yang finished serving the food, he went to serve the meal, and said in his mouth, "Don't talk about this, it's time to eat!" ”
Huang Jing nodded, "Okay, I won't tell your dad in front of you in the future, son, mom will have to move again after a while, if you are free then, give mom a hand!" ”
Huang Jing moved three times after divorcing Su Yongguang, because it was a temporary rented house, when her job changed, she had to change places, and her work was often dirty and tiring, Su Yang knew how many times her mother sat at the bedside in the dead of night to wipe her tears, married from the distant Yucheng, and there was not even a relative by her side, and now Su Yang is her only relative, Su Yang once persuaded that if Huang Jing is too hard here, she should go back to Yucheng, several aunts and uncles have already said many times, How could they bear to let their little sister suffer here alone, but Huang Jing said that she would not leave, because she was reluctant to let her son go, she would rather suffer more by herself, and also wanted to live here, so that she could see her son from time to time.
Therefore, Su Yang in this life will never repeat the mistakes of the past and let his mother continue to be alone, he will use his own hands and the memories of more than ten years to fight for a bright life for himself, so that his mother can be happy, no longer worry about firewood, rice, oil and salt, and live a stable life.
"Okay, I'll come over then!" Su Yang nodded, "Mom, it won't be long before you don't have to live like this anymore!" ”
Huang Jing heard this: "Why do you say that, don't think about persuading me to go back, I can't go back!" ”
"Of course not, I don't want you to go back yet, as soon as you two meet, you will be like lighting explosives if you don't speak for three words!" Su Yang shook his head, "I'm going to keep it secret first, and you'll know when the time comes!" ”
Huang Jing sat down at the table and said earnestly, "Xiaoyang, the most important thing for you now is to study hard, Mom doesn't need you to worry about it here!" ”
"Don't worry, I have my own number, come, taste it, it will definitely be better than what you make!" Su Yang said with a smile.
……
The mother and son talked a lot at the dinner table, and Huang Jing's change in her son was particularly surprised, but also very gratified. After the meal, Su Yang took the initiative to take over the work of washing and cleaning the dishes, and then dragged Huang Jing to Yongcheng at night to walk and relax, this is the most harmonious day for the mother and son, and before that, even if Su Yang would come over every other week, the two often argued because of disagreements and did not give in to each other.
Su Yang didn't watch the cartoons shown on TV, after coming back from a distraction, he listened to the news broadcast and looked at the textbook in his hand, this abnormal behavior did not surprise Huang Jing, because in just one afternoon, Su Yang had already given her too many surprises, as if in just a week, his son had been polished from the angular prism into a ball, and even some of the words he said were more mature and stable than her as a mother.
"Mom, I have a few articles here, don't you often submit articles to the newspaper, you can help me submit these articles!" Su Yang took out a few pieces of book paper from his schoolbag, these are a few essays he wrote, because he knew that Huang Jing had often written articles and submitted articles since he divorced Su Yongguang, so he brought them with him when he came!
"I'll see, what you wrote?" Huang Jing took the hand.
Su Yang nodded, "I've already trimmed the length, you can just submit it directly!" ”
Huang Jing didn't answer, she reviewed it very carefully, and then raised her head to look at her son, "Is this really what you wrote?" You can't copy it from anywhere, do you? ”
"Of course I wrote it, you can put 10,000 hearts!" Su Yang said with a smile.
"Okay, son, I always knew that you were talented in this area, but I didn't expect the level to be so good, mom take a look again, if it's no problem, I'll submit it tomorrow!" Huang Jing paused, and then said: "But do you all go to the same newspaper for all these topics you wrote?" ”
Su Yang shook his head, "The one you are reading now is submitted to the Yucheng Evening News, and the other two are submitted to the Economic Times!" ”
"The Economic Times? Are you sure? ”
Huang Jing has also voted for the Yucheng Evening News and published a few articles, but the Economic Times has never been, first, she doesn't understand the economic news, and she is also so highly educated.
"Of course, you can just vote!" Su Yang nodded.
"Don't get your hopes up, I have submitted so many articles myself, and only a few have been published, after all, this is the first time you have written these, I guess it is suspense!" Huang Jingdao.
Su Yang smiled mysteriously when he heard this, the first time he wrote? You must know that after graduating from college in his previous life, he worked part-time as a literary writer, and he also published articles in various newspapers many times, but now he has the trend of the next ten years and has a pen and ink in his mind, do you still need to worry about whether he can be successful?
"Do you want to submit directly under your own name?" Huang Jing asked.
"Yes!" Su Yang nodded.
"Son, how do you understand these things? I haven't seen you pay attention to economic development before, after all, you are a child, it is too early to care about this, right? Huang Jing said with some concern.
Su Yang shook his head when he heard this, "Don't worry, I'm measured, Mom, don't worry!" ”
Seeing that her son was confident, Huang Jing didn't say anything more, although these articles were very well written, and two of them made her look in the clouds, but she didn't think that a fifteen-year-old child could be used for the first time when he wrote these, but anyway, this was a good start, and it also gave Huang Jing confidence in her son!
