Chapter 208: Her Heart Is Broken
After entering a psychiatric hospital with a rather high-end decoration and similar to a mountain villa, Jiang Laiyue found the person in charge and went through the visit procedures, and then we entered a well-lit ward under the leadership of the staff.
In the spacious room, a middle-aged woman in a hospital gown lay on the bed, and the doctor told us that she expected to wake up in an hour and a half.
Jiang Laiyue and I gently put down the items, and then sat down on the sofa, looking at the middle-aged woman in front of her, her face looked a little old, white hair had appeared on her forehead, but she still couldn't hide her former elegance, she was quiet and sleeping, she revealed elegance and indifference, I guess this should be Jiang Laiyue's mother, because there are so many similarities between their eyebrows and eyes.
Jiang Laiyue dragged the chair to the hospital bed, supported her elbows on the bed, supported her chin, and looked at the woman on the hospital bed, with a happy face.
I picked up the apple and wanted to peel an apple for her, but I couldn't find the fruit knife after looking for a long time, and then I remembered that we were in a mental hospital similar to a sanatorium, and if it weren't for the stiff words at the door, I would have thought that I was accompanying Jiang Laiyue to visit my mother.
After a while, I found Jiang Laiyue lying on the side of the bed asleep, I can guess that she has basically not rested since last night, I reached out to turn the volume mode of her and my mobile phone to the lowest, hoping that he can sleep well in this sunny afternoon, at this moment, she is no longer a homeless cat, she does not need to be a hedgehog with thorns, she is just a weak woman who falls asleep in coquettishness.
I waited quietly in silence, about the same time as the doctor predicted, Jiang Laiyue's mother really woke up first, she smiled quietly at me, and then looked at Jiang Laiyue who was lying on the side of the bed, without blinking for a long time.
I kept quiet very tacitly, and then watched Jiang Laiyue's mother get up gently, and after approving the clothes, she motioned me to walk to the balcony opposite with several layers of protection.
When I came to the balcony, I greeted her respectfully and shouted, "Hello Auntie!" ”
"Yue'er brought you here, what's your name?"
"Auntie, my name is Yu Hang."
"Don't call me Auntie, it's not kind, call me Aunt Qin!"
"Okay, Aunt Qin."
I exhaled softly, smiled and shouted, Aunt Qin was a little excited, held my hand, and said to me with a sincere expression: "Although I haven't met before, I still officially introduce myself to you, I am Laiyue's mother, a southerner!" ”
I don't know why Aunt Qin emphasized that she was a southerner, and she whispered to me to introduce Jiang Laiyue.
I already knew her very well, and smiled at her, saying that I had known Jiang Laiyue for a long time and were very good friends, while Aunt Qin was very surprised, looked me up and down several times, and asked uncertainly: "Are you really Laiyue's boyfriend?" ”
Looking at her longing eyes, I had no idea for a while, and when Aunt Qin's mood fluctuated, I didn't dare to speak without permission, for fear of stimulating her.
At this time, Aunt Qin turned around and walked to the room, woke up Jiang Laiyue, and asked happily: "Yue'er, you said that when you have a boyfriend, you will bring it to your mother, after all these years, you finally brought someone here, is this young man your boyfriend?" ”
Jiang Laiyue looked embarrassed, I knew that she wanted to perfunctory Aunt Qin, who was fluctuating in mood, but because of my feelings, she didn't speak for a long time, so although she walked towards me quickly, she could still feel that she was a little apprehensive.
Aunt Qin finally opened her mouth and asked me, "Young man, you are really our Yue'er's boyfriend." ”
I don't want to let Aunt Qin's spirit get out of control anymore because of my relationship, and in the end I can only rely on drugs to suppress it, so that this birthday party will break up unhappily, I reached out and grabbed Jiang Laiyue's cold hand, nodded with a smile, and Jiang Laiyue seemed to be responding to me, holding my hand tightly, and lowering her head, looking shy.
Jiang Laiyue wanted to say something, but Aunt Qin waved at us and signaled to go to dinner first, but the words that had already reached her mouth could not be said after all.
……
In a bright dining room, Aunt Qin insisted on arranging for me and Jiang Laiyue to sit on one side, and she sat alone on the other side.
I took the kettle from the waiter's hand and poured a glass of water for Aunt Qin, but Jiang Laiyue, who has always been free and easy, seemed a little restrained, perhaps because Aunt Qin regarded me as her boyfriend.
I poured Jiang Laiyue a glass of water, and gave her another look, signaling that she didn't need to be too restrained.
Jiang Laiyue nodded obediently, this appearance was just like the usual judgment.
Aunt Qin finally ordered, according to the usual practice, at this time, Aunt Qin should ask about my family background, unexpectedly: she didn't ask, which surprised me.
If you think about it again, you can understand, I have heard more or less of Jiang Laiyue's life background, even if the Jiang family is rich, Jiang Wen is not still looking for a junior, so that Jiang Laiyue has suffered the pain of family breakdown since she was a child, and money and life background are sometimes not so important, sometimes the news often breaks out that the woman is asking for a sky-high price, I think it is precisely because I am not confident in my relationship and future, so I have to rely on these foreign things to maintain a relationship, and finally ignore that although I live a life, I should not let money be everything, So I forgot why I got together with my other half.
And these problems are precisely because of the blind loss of confidence in marriage, in the marriageable age that dare not indulge at random to find someone to marry, and finally transfer the dissatisfaction with the marriage to the material security, at this time, in fact, life has become a net, the net can fly wings, and we ourselves have forgotten that in the collision, fragility will accumulate into responsibility......
At this time, Aunt Qin drank some water, broke the silence first, and asked Jiang Laiyue, "Have you been busy with work recently, can you still cope with the affairs at hand?" ”
Jiang Laiyue looked at me before replying, "I'm not too busy, basically I will have time to rest every week." ”
I instantly realized that Aunt Qin, who had been living in a nursing home for a long time, probably didn't know that Jiang Laiyue had lost everything, and I couldn't figure it out, how could Jiang Laiyue tell Aunt Qin these things and increase her psychological burden, which would not be beneficial to her condition.
Aunt Qin finally took advantage of the situation and said to me: "Yu Hang, may you not be able to take care of her family if you support her in her career?" ”
I nodded and said, "I support her." ”
Aunt Qin said with a cold face: "Then tell me, you can connive at a woman working hard, what do you think." ”
"I think there is no distinction between men and women, and there is no big or small career, if a small stream flows into a big river, then it can be stable for a lifetime without having to trek thousands of miles, if a small stream has to insist on trekking thousands of miles into the sea, then we can't say that it is wrong, after all, there is a broader space and future, and the pursuit determines the pattern of life, which is not connivance, but tolerance."
When I finished saying these words, Aunt Qin suddenly showed an aura that can only be found in the workplace for many years, and said to me and Jiang Laiyue: "You just live too well, so you can't get anything." My classmates were confused about everything back then, they should get married, they should have worked, and now they have everything, unlike now when they are left with nothing. ”
Jiang Laiyue was obviously sad by these words, and I didn't rush to refute Aunt Qin, but said, "I think Laiyue has done a fairly balanced job. ”
Before I finished my words, Aunt Qin nodded and said, "I am willing to trust my daughter's ability to handle life and work. ”
Aunt Qin obviously has a lot to say, Jiang Laiyue helped me out of the siege, she was very calm and coquettish to Aunt Qin, saying that she wanted to eat cake, Aunt Qin said to her mouth, but in the end she chose to be silent, and I am even more glad that she is so silent, because I have said all the things that should be said in place, if she is still dissatisfied, I have nothing to do, and I am afraid that if I say too much, I will lose.
"Yue'er, did you bring the family photo?"
Jiang Laiyue hurriedly took out a color photo from his bag and said, "Of course I brought it, you see." ”
Aunt Qin finally smiled, and while rubbing the photo, she asked, "By the way, what about your father, why didn't he come today on such an important day?" ”
Jiang Laiyue was unexpected, and hurriedly explained: "My dad is busy today, so he didn't come over, let's not delay the birthday, he will come to see you later." ”
Aunt Qin's brows furrowed, she suddenly looked at Jiang Laiyue with mood fluctuations, and asked, "He hasn't been here for a long time, and he promised to accompany me back to Fujian for a while, why hasn't he come for so long?" ”
"Dad, he's really busy......"
Aunt Qin's tone became more and more painful, and she kept repeating "He's busy, he's busy......"
With these two words, I realized that this scene touched the deepest memory in Aunt Qin's heart, and I comforted Aunt Qin softly along with Jiang Laiyue's words, saying that Jiang Wen was really busy recently, so that she calmed down.
In order not to further stimulate Aunt Qin, Jiang Laiyue motioned for me to leave the room first, leaving her to appease herself, and I, as a fake "boyfriend", didn't have the courage to face this scene, just standing outside this deserted house, facing the scene that was difficult to mediate, I was a little stunned!
After a long period of noise, the room finally quieted down, and after a long time, I heard Aunt Qin's voice full of grievances: "Yue'er, tell me, why some things, I always feel like I've experienced them, but I can't remember anything, you tell me, where my memory is, where am I, how am I here!" ”
"Mom, if you can't think of it, don't force yourself to think about it, forgetting some things is a relief, you really don't want to be so embarrassed about yourself anymore! I'm begging you, forget the past, live well, you still have me, promise me, okay? ”
"No, I want to go back to Fujian, your father must be waiting for me at the beach, I want to go back......"
There was another silence in the room that was so quiet that it was almost suffocating, I saw Jiang Laiyue's expression almost collapsed through the window, and she finally whispered to Aunt Qin: "Mom, he has already died for you, is it good for you to accept the reality, don't live in memory anymore." ”
"No, I don't believe he lied to me, he said that he would accompany me back to Fujian when he used that money to make a big business, and he wouldn't lie to my ......"
"It's been so many years, why are your memories stuck in the past?"
During the violent argument, I heard the sound of the bottle breaking, and then several nurses ran past me and went directly into the restaurant, controlling Aunt Qin.
Jiang Laiyue was a little distressed, and hurriedly asked the medical staff to let go, then picked up the cake, crying and begging: "Mom, I'm here to celebrate your birthday, I'm your only relative!" ”
Aunt Qin was stunned for a while, grabbed her hair and thought for a moment, then suddenly snatched the cake from Jiang Laiyue's hand, buckled it on her head, and scolded: "You get out of here, why did you send me here, why did you let so many people torture me, I hate you!" ”
Several nurses hurriedly put Aunt Qin out, and when I passed by, I saw an almost hideous face, maybe this is what love looks like when the skin is torn off.
Jiang Laiyue's body suddenly softened, leaning on the leg of the dining table, not letting herself sit down, but the screams and scolding that gradually walked away broke her heart......
She put the family photo close to her chest, raised her head, tears fell down her cheeks into the placket, and then angrily tore the photo to shreds, trying to relieve the psychological pain in this rough way, she collapsed, bent her knees and legs and buried her head, with a head of cream, and cried loudly, the cry was heartbreaking!
