Chapter 564: Mother-in-law's Remorse
The old man seemed to be immersed in his own memories and couldn't extricate himself, he continued: "One day, I saw Ruyu standing alone in the back garden, and I called him several times but he didn't respond. Later, he asked me and said, "Grandpa, is it that my mother doesn't want me anymore because she has a little brother?" I said how could it be, my mother loves your brother and loves you. But ......"
The mother-in-law's face gradually changed.
"Ru Yu began to be bullied by Xiaoyang, and he relied on his ...... Ahem, with my mother's love, unscrupulous. Ruyu cried and shouted and ran to me, saying that I lied to him, that I was a big liar, that my mother didn't love him, only Xiaoyang. You don't know, my heart hurts like a pinprick. The palms and backs of the hands are full of meat! ”
The mother-in-law's eyes were a little red.
"How did he bully Ruyu?" I asked softly.
He broke the glass and said that it was broken by Ru Eucalyptus, and I was also interceding for Ru Eucalyptus at the time, but as soon as Xiaoyang cried, the big guys felt that it was Ru Eucalyptus' fault. One winter, Xiaoyang shouted that he wanted to see ice sculptures, how could there be ice sculptures for him to show in Beicheng on this day...... He took a basin of cold water and poured it on Ru Eucalyptus, who was playing in the back garden, and Ru Yu had a fever for three days and almost burned out. ”
The mother-in-law's face was full of disbelief.
"Now that you know, you ......," I hesitated.
"This is what the maid said, and when Ruyu knew that I knew, she came to me and told me not to tell my mother. I asked him why, and he said that even if he did, his mother wouldn't believe it. At that time, Xiaoyang will bully him even more...... Do you know what it was like when I heard those words? I watched a cute child gradually become a mature boy who didn't like to laugh or talk, and I was ...... I ...... in my heart."
The mother-in-law's body kept shaking.
"I'm cold, I want to go back......" The old man finished and asked the servant to take him into the house.
I looked at my mother-in-law and said, "You have hurt Ru Yu far more than you imagined, right?" ”
The mother-in-law's teeth trembled, and it took a long time before she spoke: "I thought it was ...... I thought it was all his own fabrication...... I...... I didn't think about it that much......"
"You made him like this." I said word for word.
"I ......"
I shook my head helplessly, "I really don't understand, the palms and backs of my hands are full of meat, why I can prefer the small ones to this extent." Rather than this, it is better not to give birth to him. ”
I walked away.
Fu Ruyan came when dinner was just ready, I walked over quickly, helped him take off his coat, and couldn't help teasing: "You are really in time to be in time, it's better to be in time, just in time." ”
"Rub over the rice." Fu Ruyan pulled out the shirt tucked around his waist, "I'll go see grandpa." ”
"Okay."
He brought his grandfather down, and the grandfather and grandson didn't know what to say, but they were quite happy.
The mother-in-law had already sat down and was fascinated by the dishes that came up one after another.
"Let's eat." I said.
Fu Ruyan helped the old man sit down, "Grandpa, what do you want to eat, I'll clip it for you." ”
"I want some soup." The old man said.
Fu Ruyan got up and served him a bowl.
My mother-in-law has not spoken, on weekdays, she does not find my fault at the dinner table, sometimes my spoon accidentally touches the edge of the bowl and makes a clanging sound, she will be said to be uneducated.
It's been a quiet day......
Just when I was wondering, a pair of chopsticks unexpectedly passed in front of me and arrived in Fu Ruyu's bowl.
The chopsticks trembled a little, showing the nervousness of the owner.
As soon as Fu Ruyu raised her eyes, she met her mother-in-law's timid and flattering look.
The mother-in-law spoke cautiously, as if she couldn't pull off that face, "Ruyu, don't you like to eat sweet and sour tenderloin...... Eat more. ”
Fu Ruyan said expressionlessly: "I don't like to eat it now." ”
The mother-in-law blinked and did not speak again.
I reached down from the table, poked Fu Ruyan lightly, and lowered my voice: "I can eat it...... Otherwise, your mother will be so sad......"
Fu Ruyan still didn't move his chopsticks.
I always feel that behind this sweet and sour tenderloin, it doesn't seem to be so simple.
After eating, Fu Ruyan and I sat on the sofa watching TV, he knew each other very well, but my eyes kept falling on his mobile phone, for fear of suddenly ringing.
After all, today is his and Josie's anniversary!
The mother-in-law came out of the kitchen, holding a plate in her hand, and put it in front of us, "Eucalyptus, lychee, you can eat some." I remember when you were a child, you liked to eat lychees. ”
The lychees were peeled by my mother-in-law, the cores were removed, and a fork was placed next to it, which was extremely convenient to eat.
Fu Ruyan glanced at her coldly, and her tone was cold: "What do you want me to do?" ”
The mother-in-law didn't react, "What? ”
I know what my mother-in-law meant, she must have felt that she had done something wrong for so many years because of what the old man said in the afternoon, so she began to want to ease the relationship between her and her son.
But unexpectedly, Fu Ruyan thought she was profitable.
"I'm your mother, I'll get you some fruit to eat, is there a purpose?" The mother-in-law was a little incredible.
Fu Ruyan glanced at the lychee in front of him, and said expressionlessly: "After so many years, when did you ever care about me?" ”
The mother-in-law was choked by him for a long time and couldn't speak.
I was busy with the atmosphere: "Lychee, lychee is delicious, but delicious." Such as eucalyptus, come, open your mouth and take a bite, ah. ”
I picked up a lychee and put it to his lips.
Fu Ruyu's thin lips are tight, with his stubbornness.
The atmosphere became more and more awkward, so I stuffed it directly into my mouth and sighed: "Mom, this lychee is so sweet!" Where did you buy it? The lychees I bought before were not very sweet, and they were still expensive. ”
The smile on the mother-in-law's face was a little far-fetched, "Just on the side of the road, an old woman sold it." ”
"That's it, Ruyu, you can buy some and try it when you go back."
Fu Ruyan still didn't speak.
The mother-in-law glanced at Fu Ruyu a few more times, and sighed long, "Ruyu, actually, my mother wants to say a few words to you......"
As soon as the voice fell, Fu Ruyan's mobile phone rang.
I looked over and caught the word Josie at a glance.
The throat seemed to be blocked, and the lychee was stuck in the throat, and it couldn't go up or down.
Fu Ruyan picked up the mobile phone to answer, because I was very close to him, and no one spoke, I clearly heard the voice leaking out of the phone, it was Josie's drunken tone: "Ruyu...... Where are you...... I miss you...... Do you know what day it is...... You must remember, right? Isn't it? I'm so lonely now, and there's no one to accompany me...... You must be with He Chu, right? Am I bothering you? I was just...... I miss you so much, I just want to call you, I don't mean anything else......"
Fu Ruyan was about to speak, when a sharp scream suddenly came from there: "Ah! Don't touch me! Hooligan, get out of here! ”
