Chapter 53: Doubts
The old lady in the courtyard may have her ears a little back because of her age, and her voice was three points higher: "Who do you say you are?" ”
Jin Yu's voice was afraid that she would not hear clearly, so she also raised her voice by three points: "Mom, I am your daughter-in-law." ”
"I don't have a daughter-in-law, are you mistaken?"
Rong Jin heard that the old lady was still suspicious, and also stepped forward and said, "Are you Yue Linyuan's mother?" Auntie, this is Mr. Yue's wife, can you open the door and let us go in and talk? ”
The old lady still insisted: "My family Lin Yuan is not married, you are mistaken." Let's go back. ”
Jin Yu saw that the old lady was stubborn, so she had to say: "Old lady, I am really Lin Yuan's wife, Lin Yuan's birthday is October 9th, 32 years old this year, I like to take cold showers, I like to be next to the wall when I sleep, and I don't like to eat too sweet food." I have our marriage certificate with me, and I will show you when you open the door, okay? ”
The door was quiet for a while, and finally opened with a dull "bang". The old lady who opened the door was wearing a half-worn blue gown and floral cloth shoes on her feet, no matter how she looked at it, she looked like an ordinary old lady from the countryside. Jin Yu found that although the old lady was old, she had eyes as clear as Lin Yuan, and there was a little calmness in her eyes.
"Mom, the first time I came to see you, I didn't know what you liked, so I had to buy some casually*." Jin Yu said, and Rong Jin stuffed the things he bought into the old lady's hand.
The old lady took it and only glanced at the colorful packaging, which was piled up under the window edge of the door.
"It's hot at home, let's sit in the courtyard." The old lady pointed to a large stone pier and a few small bamboo chairs in the courtyard, "It's cool here." ”
Jin Yu thanked him, sat on the chair with Rong Jin, and looked at the place where Lin Yuan had lived. The yard is not big, but it is very clean, there is an almond tree that is less than forty or fifty years old, the branches are luxuriant, and a few apricots hang red on the branches. There are a few pots of moon season under the tree, and they are also blooming just right.
The old lady sent out the teapot and bowl, and said apologetically: "Lin Yuan, his father is not in good health and can't get out of bed, you forgive me." ”
"Mom, don't be busy, it's time for me to go in and see Dad." Jin Yu smiled and wanted to sit down with the old lady in her arms.
The old lady scalded the teacup with hot tea before pouring the tea and put it in front of the two of them: "Girl, I don't know you, why do you know Lin Yuan so well." ”
Jin Yu said: "Mom, I know you must be surprised to come here suddenly, this is my marriage certificate with Lin Yuan, you see, my name is Jin Yu, Sun Jin Yu." ”
The old lady looked at the man in the photo who was indeed her son, and the woman smiling like a flower next to her was the woman in front of her, and repeated the name in her mouth a few times, and finally suddenly realized: "You are, the Mr. Sun mentioned by Lin Yuan?" ”
Jin Yu smiled and nodded: "It's me, you just call me Jin Yu." Didn't Lin Yuan tell you about me? ”
The old lady said embarrassedly: "Lin Yuan said that he went out to work, and he never came back after leaving with you, although he often called us, but he never said his own situation, and he never told us that he was married." How are you, you're going to ......"
Jin Yu comforted the old lady: "It's my fault that I didn't tell you the news, so I came this time to pick you up and go to me to reunite with Lin Yuan." ”
"This ...... I have to ask his dad what he means, his dad has been sick for many years, if it weren't for his dad, Lin Yuan wouldn't have to take over the family affairs as soon as he came out of college, and it was not easy for this kid. He's doing well now, and we're not going to drag him down. When the old lady said this, her eyes couldn't help but turn red.
Seeing that the old lady was sad, Jin Yu hurriedly persuaded her: "Mom, don't be sad, Lin Yuan is very good now, and with his own store, he will pass on your family recipe." He misses you too, but it's hard to say, so I'm here to pick you up to reassure him. ”
The old lady sobbed softly, and asked Jinyu tentatively: "Lin Yuan, this child is withdrawn, and my family is in such conditions, why do you fall in love with him." ”
Jinyu said: "Maybe this is fate, since he came to me, my liking for him has become stronger and stronger, so we got married." ”
"I have a question, I don't know if I can ask it, don't take it to heart when you hear it." The old lady hesitated, and under Jinyu's affirmation, she asked very softly, "What about Xiaoxi." ”
"Mo Xiaoxi......" Jin Yu mentioned this name that she hadn't heard for a long time again, her expression was a little embarrassed.
The old lady looked at it in her eyes and said playfully: "Don't think about it if you can't think of it, I always like to talk about the past when I'm old." Don't take it to heart. Don't mention her, don't mention her. ”
Jinyu bit her lip and still said, "She's dead." ”
The old lady was obviously shocked by the news, but she still pretended to be calm: "It's the past, don't mention her." You sit, I'll ask his dad. ”
The old lady stood up tremblingly, Jinyu hugged her, and asked, "Mom, can I go in and say a few words to Dad?" ”
Jin Yu followed the old lady into the back room, the back room was really a little stuffy because of poor ventilation, but fortunately, Lin Yuan's mother cleaned diligently, and the house was clean and clean, and there was no mess of patients at home.
On the bed of the brightest big house, there was a thin old man, who was Lin Yuan's father. Jin Yu squatted on the edge of the bed and said to Lin Yuan's father, "Dad, I'll come to see you." ”
The old man looked at the old lady with a puzzled expression, the old lady understood, and hurriedly leaned into the old man's ear and said, "This is Lin Yuan's daughter-in-law, your daughter-in-law." ”
The old man nodded blankly, looked at Jinyu's face again, and shook his head.
Jin Yu looked at the old lady suspiciously, and the old lady said, "Don't mind, he has been sick for a long time, and we don't have any news here, so he can't figure out many things." He may not believe that you are Lin Yuan's daughter-in-law. ”
Jinyu's expression was a little lost, and the old lady was too reluctant to go, and said, "His father is in a daze all day long, you must not take it to heart." You came to visit us, and I thank you so much. The conditions here are too bad, so go back as soon as you have your heart. ”
Jinyu shook her head: "Mom, I'm here to pick you up." ”
The old lady smiled: "People like us can only lose face for you when they go to your house, but when you come, we know that Lin Yuan's situation is okay and he is married again, so my heart is much more steady." ”
"Please go back with me, Lin Yuan hasn't seen you for a long time, he will definitely be happy to see you coming."
The old lady couldn't shirk it, so she had to say, "I'll discuss it with his father." His father's illness has not improved, and he can't get out of bed all year round, so it's inconvenient to go to you. ”
Jinyu took the old lady's hand: "Mom, it doesn't matter, after Dad goes, I will take him to the best hospital for examination, and arrange the best nurse to take care of Dad, you guys are here to help Dad's illness, it's better to go back with me, just go to the city to see a doctor." ”
The old lady said, "Well, I'll ask him what his father means." Can you go out and wait for me? ”
Jinyu took the old lady's hands and clenched them gently, and walked out of the door, leaving the old couple behind.
"Dad, what do you think?" The old lady asked.
Although Lin Yuan's father is sick, he is not confused: "People are big bosses, we are just ordinary people, Lin Yuan married her is Lin Yuan's life, and we old couples will go to their light again, don't we want to be cheeky." I'm not going. ”
"I think this girl is also a good person, not like the arrogant and pampered appearance of a rich family. But I really can't figure it out, why did she marry Lin Yuan, she should know about our family's situation, and her parents also agreed that she should marry someone like us? "The old lady was full of doubts, and finally let out a long sigh," she said, and Xiaoxi was gone. ”
"Xiao Xi didn't go to the city with Lin Yuan to see a doctor, why did he leave?" The old man was a little excited, and couldn't help but sit up with his body, so panicked that the old lady hurriedly stepped forward to help him, and comforted his emotions for a while.
The old man was still chattering: "What happened, Lin Yuan has been gone for less than two years, Xiaoxi is gone, and he married the big boss as his daughter-in-law......"
The old lady sighed: "We always say that the daughter of a poor family marries into a wealthy family to serve people, I don't know what kind of life a poor boy marries the daughter of a rich family." ”
"Individuals have their own lives, this is Lin Yuan's lives, and we can't help it." The old man closed his eyes, "Let's go can only embarrass Lin Yuan even more, send her away." ”
