Ji's family ushered in a young and chic guest. This young man who looks like a white-faced scholar in a bit of a drama is very reserved in front of Ji's mother. He is Wei Zhong of the Propaganda Department of the Xincheng Municipal Party Committee. Vice Mayor Ji set off, Ji Meiting hadn't gotten off work yet, and Ji's mother received him warmly. Wei Zhong came with a mission, and before he sat down for a few minutes, he asked to see the flowers.
Ji's mother said, "Don't worry, take a breath first." She made Wei Zhong tea, turned on the TV, and slowly talked to Wei Zhong about the parents. Wei Zhong knew very well in his heart that in the old leader's family, obedience was his duty. If you talk about raising flowers and plants, or talk about Cannavaro, Team Rockets, and table tennis, Wei Zhong may have more words, but Ji's mother always asks about hobbies and life, which makes him feel uncomfortable like a primary school student.
After a while, Ji Meiting came back, saw Wei Zhong when she entered the door, knew that his arrival was related to those flowers, and said hello politely. She just regarded Wei Zhong as her mother's guest.
"Tingting, you can come and see the flowers together, and learn some knowledge about raising flowers." Ji's mother shouted.
Ji Meiting came to the balcony and admired the flowers on the balcony together. Wei Zhong and Ji Meiting are just ordinary colleagues, not to mention that Ji Meiting is the daughter of Deputy Mayor Ji, so Wei Zhong is in awe. When he came to Ji's house today, the two gathered around a pot of flowers, and it was the first time he saw Ji Meiting so closely. He didn't dare to look at her squarely, but just watched her every move with the rest of his eyes, sniffing the intriguing smell of her.
Ji's mother first led him to see a Junzi orchid. This Junzi Orchid is not growing well, and Ye is a little black in his heart. Wei Zhong said: "This is called trowel, the balcony is too stuffy, the ventilation is poor, the water sprays too much, the water accumulates in the heart, and the germs directly erode the heart of Junzilan." Ji's mother and Ji Meiting both nodded yes.
Wei Zhongshu's confidence became more and more abundant, and he talked more: "In this case, you should dig it all out, cut off the rotten parts, disinfect it with alcohol, wash the roots, and then plant it in clean sand......" Wei Zhong said that he learned from books, and it was a bit like reading a text.
Ji Meiting said: "You are like a teacher. Wei Zhong said: "Don't say it, I really want to be a teacher, I have already contacted the school, but my uncle does not agree." Ji's mother said: "Your uncle has vision, if you become a teacher, it will be too late to regret it." Ji Meiting was rebellious when she heard this, and said, "What's wrong with being a teacher? Teachers also have to be done, all those who have been to school for a few days, which one lacks the training of teachers? Wei Zhong said: "Yes, it's good to be a teacher, if you want to say that it is in line with my character, you should still choose to be a teacher......" Ji Meiting showed a triumphant smile on the side, and secretly gestured at Wei Zhong with a thumbs up. Ji's mother couldn't stand it: "Is it good to be a teacher?" What's so good about it? What's so good? Wei Zhong didn't expect the leader's wife to change her face so quickly, so she hurriedly shut up. Ji Meiting understood what her mother was thinking.
Wei Zhong took care of the flowers, and Ji Meiting played on the side. Wei Zhong did his job conscientiously and responsibly, needless to say. Because the words just now caused some unpleasantness, none of the three of them said anything more. After cleaning up, Ji's mother beckoned Wei Zhong to wash his hands, and instructed Ji Meiting to say, "Call a few dishes and let Xiao Wei eat at home." Ji Meiting said: "Okay, it just so happened that I made an appointment with Fang Li to go out to eat, and I will ask them to bring the dishes home later." ”
Wei Zhong is naturally a person who knows his eyes, and he is busy saying that he has something.
Ji Meiting whispered to Wei Zhong: "Section Chief Wei, don't be like my mother, menopausal people are like that." Wei Zhong hurriedly said: "Where, it's just that I don't seem to be happy with my aunt, and I have to explain more to my aunt if I don't want to do anything." ”
After sending Wei Zhong away, Ji Meiting returned to the living room and sat on the sofa to read a book. Ji's mother said sourly, "Oh, didn't you make an appointment to go out to eat?" Ji Meiting said: "The agreement has just been canceled, so it's important to accompany my mother to eat at home." When Ji's mother heard this, she immediately broke out, and her hands danced exaggeratedly in the air: "Oh, you are a heart!" If you want to get rid of Xiao Wei, you can tell the truth! I can see it, you just want to do everything against me, and you want to be angry with me and pull me down. My mother, I don't live anymore, I don't have any dignity in my life, my daughters are like me, what face do I have to live! ”
Ji Meiting hurriedly came over to beat her mother's back and flattered her. There is no real hatred between mother and daughter, just one wants her daughter to live a good life in the future and thinks about her daughter everywhere, so she wants her daughter to listen to her everywhere, while the other feels that she can be responsible for her own future, and wants to escape from this control to pursue the life she wants. Such contradictions are still easy to ease.
Mother Ji looked at her daughter's obedient appearance, and couldn't help but say a few words: "Xiao Wei, this child is good." Ji Meiting said: "I've never seen you lift a person like this." Mom, I really want to live with you for the rest of my life, I can't bear to leave you. Ji's mother said gloomily: "Tingting, just listen to your mother." The water flows to the lower places, and the people go to the higher places, so we can't go backwards as the days go by, right? Look at your uncle and uncle, which family is not better off than us? If you want to say that Fang Xinning, her family is in the countryside, and she has no father, she is just an ordinary teacher, so she has been in this pocket for a lifetime. If you follow him, will there be one in our family? Ji Meiting said: "If I had asked my father to help him earlier, wouldn't the problem have been solved earlier?" Ji's mother turned her face and said, "If you want to say that, it's not mine." You think it's as simple as talking? You still give me the heart to die, anyway, as long as I live, I can't even think about it. ”
Ji Meiting saw that her mother was really angry, and knew that the work she had done patiently just now was in vain, so she shut up and hid in her room again.
Mother Ji was alone in the living room, the anger was getting bigger and bigger, and she couldn't stop talking: "You can't let yourself decide this matter." Like the conditions of our home, in Xincheng, what kind of can't be found? Look at this one in your picture, what kind of thing is it? The door is not right, the door is wrong, and I feel shameless when I say it outside. ”
Ji Meiting was lying down, her eyes didn't open, she touched the paper on the bedside, tore a small piece, and blocked her ears.
