Chapter 15: Running away from home
What exactly is the subtext of this? Finally, is the conceited and civilized Shen Chuyun going to be like this? is like an old-fashioned small-footed woman, crying, making trouble, and hanging herself, and she threatens to go back to her parents' house at every turn. Coated with a new layer of golden light, she may use a more Western-style term - divorce.
Han Zhongqiu said in his heart, he will not be threatened by anyone, he will not be like his father, he will not be subject to decency all his life, he will always behave in a cozy manner, he will be kidnapped by new ideas again and again for the sake of face, and he will repeatedly tolerate a little woman.
The palm of his hand fell, half of Shen Chuyun's hair was loose, half of his cheeks were hot, the roar in his ears was louder, and his neck was wooden, as if he couldn't move. I barely moved my eyes, but I felt that everything I saw was constantly spinning.
"How can you fight, you can't help it."
It wasn't until Zhang's mother heard the sound and came in to persuade her that Han Zhongqiu let go of Shen Chuyun's collar and lowered her head to tidy up her clothes.
Shen Chuyun was stunned for a long time before he suddenly realized that Fang Cai was slapped in the face. Where can he still take care of any manners, he angrily walked around the table, and straightened his body towards Han Zhongqiu, and slapped him back. However, his strength was thin and crackled for a while, although he was tired enough, but in addition to making Han Zhongqiu lose some face in front of Zhang's mother, he couldn't hurt him by half a point.
Zhang's mother threw herself on Shen Chuyun, and repeatedly shouted to dissuade her: "Don't be the eldest young grandmother, the injury on the eldest young master's body is just a few days ago, can you bear it?" As he spoke, he looked at Han Zhongqiu pleadingly, hoping that he would stop making trouble and go out quickly.
Han Zhongqiu snorted loudly, turned around and left in a huff. Looking at that look, it seems that he still endures humiliation and doesn't care much.
Shen Chuyun suddenly burst into tears, his face was spent, he pushed Zhang's mother away and yelled at her to go out.
Zhang's mother couldn't, so she had to answer in a row, and muttered when she went out: "It's always like this, what do you mean?" What's so good about everyone's girlfriends, it's not as good as the daughters raised by those who have no money to beg for food, who can work and endure hardships. Not to mention beating, I didn't even dare to raise my eyelids in front of the men in the family. ”
For a while, there was a loud noise in the study and bedroom, thinking that the husband and wife were each angry with their objects. Zhang's mother was in the yard, shaking her head, and she never tried to persuade anyone.
After a while, Shen Chuyun washed his face, carried a small suitcase, and his steps were fast and urgent, like a gust of wind blowing from the study to the courtyard gate.
Zhang's mother was stunned, shocked that something big was going to happen, and hurriedly shouted all the way inside: "Young master, it's not good." The young grandmother left with a suitcase, so take a look. ”
Han Zhongqiu lay on the sofa without moving, spit out a smoke ring to the ceiling, waved his hand and said disdainfully: "What a big deal!" Don't worry, I think she just wants to go back to her mother's house in Tianjin. When I went to the station to find someone, I asked, and there was no car to Tianjin tonight. After saying that, I felt much more relaxed.
Two hours ago, he rushed to Chen Yiman's apartment, and saw that the furniture and utensils were there, but the people were gone, along with the clothes of the season and the expensive sable coats. So, I went everywhere to inquire about cars and trains, and I ran in a sweat but found nothing. Now it seems that it is not completely useless, at least I accidentally predicted that Shen Chuyun would not be able to return to his parents' house tonight. Since there is no major problem, naturally there is no need to make another trip to accompany her with any good words. asked Zhang's mother to go to the kitchen to order dinner, and add a pot of Shaoxing wine, and eat comfortably alone.
But Shen Chuyun, who said that she was humiliated and ran out of the gate of the Han Mansion, asked a rickshaw to pull her to the Liuguo Hotel.
This is a four-storey building built by the British, located in Dongjiaomin Lane, which is the embassy area. The people who come here are not only wealthy, but also have special status. I chose this place because this place will not leak the news, and it can avoid tabloid borrowing to play to the greatest extent.
Seeing that it was Shen Chuyun who came, Xicub didn't ask too much at all, and took the luggage and led her upstairs.
Han Yansun is the Minister of Foreign Affairs, so naturally there is a special room.
Shen Chuyun took out a five-yuan ticket from his handbag, and as a tip for the West Cub, he asked to send a meal. Then, he locked the door and went to the Deng Mansion to make a phone call.
Although the dinner is simple, how dare Xi Cub snub the eldest daughter-in-law of the foreign minister. The food delivered, resting on the low coffee table in front of the sofa, turned out to be a little crowded.
Eating dinner alone, there was a knock on the door outside.
Teresa Teng entered the house with an anxious look, and a few locks of hair were still wet together. She was taking a shower when the phone rang, and only called back afterwards. Hearing Shen Chuyun say, the husband and wife made a move, and instinctively thought that the woman's strength was so weak, and she was not a man's opponent at all. Where can I still care about drying my hair, and I put on my clothes indiscriminately and came this way.
Half of Shen Chuyun's face was still a little red, and his eyes were swollen like peaches.
"It's just that the husband and wife disagree, but the man raises his hand to beat the woman at every turn, this is the inferior nature of the husband's power!" Teresa Teng's reaction was even more resentful than being beaten, pacing around the room for a long time. Suddenly, his legs bent, squatted in front of Shen Chuyun, pushed her knees, and asked, "Next, what are you going to do?" ”
Shen Chuyun put down the wet towel covering his face, his voice was a little hoarse, and he cried a little: "I don't go back to my mother's house, and I haven't been back before, but my father and mother would rather look at him than ask me how wronged." I heard from the housekeeper that my father-in-law would not be back in three days, and I planned to stay in the hotel for the next three days. ”
Teresa explained: "I'm not asking about your plans for the next three days. ”
Shen Chuyun blinked twice, lowered his head and said, "I have to go to the university to participate in activities this week to support men and women not to branch schools, and it is good to go to ...... only after the swelling has been reduced."
Teresa Teng felt that she was probably deliberately avoiding the important, so she couldn't help but raise her voice and said hurriedly: "I'm asking you what your future life plans are!" ”
Shen Chuyun's eyelids secretly twitched upward, and saw that Deng Lisha had already pressed her eyes. Unable to avoid it, he muttered to himself: "Doing it is the last bottom line between husband and wife, after one fight, there will inevitably be a second time, and besides, I have such a bad relationship with him......" Speaking of this, I couldn't say it anymore in a mess. After pondering for a moment, he shook his head again and again, "But, do I want a divorce?" As long as I mention it, within half a day, reporters from all over Beijing and even the whole country will find me. A new woman who preaches the freedom of marriage and the equality of men and women, how new I seem in front of people, and how loud everyone laughs behind my back. They will even say, look, to ask for equality is to lose a husband, to lose a marriage. ”
Misinterpretation is one of the most terrible words in the world. No matter how the truth is and how clear the truth is, there will always be people who will jump out and make a different explanation. And people tend to prefer to listen to rumors, and as for the facts, they never arouse the interest of the public.
Teresa Teng retorted repeatedly: "But women's awakening is to teach them to be brave enough to say 'no' in the face of wrong marriages and unworthy husbands." I'll admit that there will be a lot of villains pointing fingers at you. But even if you don't get divorced, you only talk about equality between men and women, which still attracts the cynicism of many old literati, isn't it?! You should know this very well! Whether or not to divorce has nothing to do with whether you are in dispute or not. ”
Shen Chuyun was speechless, he understood the truth, but the thing of courage was too abstract, and he didn't know where to get it or how to accumulate it.
Seeing that she was depressed and hesitant, Teresa Teng was so anxious that she stood up and stomped her feet. Even though the carpet was more than an inch thick on the ground, it was still stomped to the sound of urns.
Shen Chuyun sniffed, and hot tears flowed down his cheeks. No one wants to preach to the public to be brave, but when faced with difficulties, they show their cowardice first. But this is due to nature, there are too few people who are born with fearlessness in their bones.
"Chuyun, listen." Teresa Teng adjusted her mentality and tone, sat down on the Hairong sofa, took her cold hand, and whispered, "The identity of a feminist supporter is to broaden your horizons, and to make your judgment of your own value no longer limited to the small world of your family, rather than becoming your shackles, making you cringe and dare not bear the slightest criticism." You have always been very dedicated to this subject, and you have worked hard to make your voice heard. You may think that only by getting the public to focus on what you say is worthy of the respect that those supporters have for you. However, you should also realize that since you have been called 'sir', then those who are teachers naturally have to teach by word and deed! ”
The last sentence made Shen Chuyun's heart move.
It's like teaching a child how hoarseness is or isn't going to work, and the effect is always not ideal. But if an adult does something, the child will remember it at a glance.
Today's Chinese women, in terms of striving for equality, are indeed still children, and most of them are still very ignorant.
Taking advantage of her wavering heart, Teresa Teng hurriedly encouraged: "You can completely put aside the shackles of tradition and solve this matter in a civilized manner." The husband cheats, is emotionally broken, and now there is an element of violence, in foreign countries, any one of them can constitute a reason for divorce. You don't have to argue or make compromises, you should go to a lawyer. In the most peaceful way, reject the evil consequences of feudal marriage! ”
Shen Chuyun looked at her but just didn't say anything, and her knuckles were white and distinct. Her marriage was rotten in her bones, so she pinched it fiercely, as if she wanted to insert her sharp nails into the flesh to cut the poison.
In her ears, Teresa Teng's lobbying continued: "Starting with you, more women should realize that such things in ancient times were wrong from the beginning!" What are you afraid of, are you afraid that there is no one around you? With me, even if your mother's family doesn't help you, you're not alone! ”
"Peaceful divorce ......" Shen Chuyun muttered to himself, his chaotic eyes slowly became clear, and his voice was louder than one word, "I can also use my own actions to tell women in the world that marriage is not the only thing in life, and there is no need to defend it with compromise." The failure of marriage is not a unilateral failure of a woman. A woman should not feel that her whole life is no longer interesting because of an unhappy marriage. That's right? ”
Her eyes glistened with tears, and the gaze slowly faded away from the sadness and grief, and little by little became firm and clear. Two beads the size of beans crossed his cheeks and flowed to the corners of his mouth, revealing a smile of renewed life.
When Teresa heard this, tears flashed in her eyes, hugged her shoulders, and kept encouraging her: "You can, you can definitely do it." ”
This night, Shen Chuyun never closed his eyes, and kept thinking about how to act next, what kind of face to return to the Han family to file for divorce, how to face the reaction of his hometown in Tianjin, and how to answer the questions that may arise in public opinion......
