"Huh! Am I ugly? Sloppy? Isn't that good......"

At twelve o'clock in the morning on Monday, when the work was over, Manager Ma left the office and stretched a big lazy waist, and when she turned to look out the window, she saw her shadow from the glass window.

"It's alright! The face is also good! This hairstyle can also be ......."

Gui Ying twisted her ass and touched her face at the glass. Light makeup, red lips, elegant hairstyle, suits, hip skirts...... It is undeniable that Ma Guiying, who is in the office at this moment, is dressed appropriately and has a grand demeanor, which is completely different from the Ma Guiying who was immersed in the bottomless pit of housework yesterday.

After verifying herself, she confidently muttered: "Yichun is looking for trouble!" It's obviously good, but I always love to suppress people! ”

After picking up the takeaway ordered by her colleague from the front desk, Manager Ma went to the public area to eat with her lunch box, and chatted with her colleague about yesterday's family affairs on a whim.

"What! People are mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, our family is authentic, and there is a problem with the blood relationship! The old man was idle, I was sloppy in dress, I sat and didn't sit with each other with or without eating, and I didn't sit with each other......" Gui Yingde couldn't help but snort quickly with the chopsticks in her hand for a while, and the three or five female colleagues sitting in the same pile saw her humming and picking up the dishes, and her mouth was bulging endlessly, and they all lowered their heads and pursed their lips and snickered.

Gui Ying smiled when she saw these people, and she didn't know why, she puffed out her two cheeks and asked innocently: "What ......are you laughing at?" Before the words were finished, she choked on a mouthful of rice in her throat and coughed, she quickly covered her mouth and squirted out before a mouthful of rice, fortunately it was sprayed on her own hands, which was even funnier than yesterday at home.

"I think your old man is right! Hahaha! A good female colleague pointed at Gui Ying and laughed, and several other people also covered their mouths and laughed.

Manager Ma was so embarrassed that he went to the bathroom with a boxed lunch to rinse his mouth and clean up. This time, she stood in front of the bright big mirror in the bathroom, looked at herself again, and seemed to have gained five or six pounds, the flesh on her face was folded, her wrists were so thick that her hands could not hold it for a long time, clothes were getting harder and harder to buy, and the meat on her stomach and shoulders was ...... Maybe the colleagues are right—the old man is right.

In the years since I married Zhiyuan, the delicate work at home has been contracted by fine people, and I can only do some things that men do. When she was almost forty, she still lost her temper when she started housework, like a daughter-in-law who had just entered her mother-in-law's house and didn't know anything. Gui Ying frowned and shook her head in the mirror, Hyosung is definitely not like this, the ingenious Xiaotang must not be like this, and the child's father is not like this. Over the years, relying on his economic contributions, his domineering nature and Zhiyuan's gentle and elegant nature, Gui Ying admitted: After marriage, she stole a lot of laziness!

Reflecting on Zhiyuan's years at home, he really didn't complain a word from beginning to end, did not invite credit, did not get angry, was considerate and gentle, and was obscure. He's so good, too good to be ignored, too good to be bullied! The son is right, his father never calls people at will; The old man is also right, she is indeed "undertidyed" and "undertrained" in housework. After only a few housework, he spewed fire everywhere with his teeth and claws, ashamed - Gui Ying touched his wrinkled neck and ventriloquized to the big mirror.

Giggle...... Giggle...... Why is there the sound of children laughing? Bao Xiaotang was curious and went out to look for it. There was a stroller at the end of the hallway, and there was a baby in the car, giggling at himself. Xiaotang looked at it for a moment, couldn't tell if it was a boy or a girl, guessed that he had just been born - a foot-long body, a wrinkled face, pink lips, and black eyes...... The baby's two hands fluttered in the air, and Xiaotang reached out to touch him, but the child grabbed her hand. The four red fingers shook his index finger tightly, and his mouth smirked silently, revealing a toothless pink.

I don't know whose baby it is, why is it left here alone? Xiaotang wondered, so she shouted at the surrounding people, she just left together, the baby cried loudly, crying so that the whole corridor was a harsh sound. She was scared, and hurriedly squatted down to coax the child, but she couldn't coax it. Worried that the child's parents suspected that she was a bad person, Xiaotang wanted to leave quickly. I didn't take a few steps, but I heard the child cry even harder.

Hey! Isn't that their own child? She reacted and turned back to pick up the baby. Suddenly, the door on the side of the ground opened, and a woman saw Xiaotang holding the child and shouted: "Why are you holding my child?" Traffickers, help! Someone's coming! ”

"This is my child!" Xiaotang emphasized very firmly.

"This is our child!"

……

The two women argued.

In a sweat, Bao Xiaotang opened his eyes tensely. Sighing that it was a dream, Xiaotang was lying on the bed panting. I dreamed of that child again - why the memories she was bent on deleting always hung in the picture of Meng Zhengna in the hospital and on the operating table, flashing in front of her eyes at this moment, she couldn't bear it, hugged the pillow and cried.

There is no end to the sorrow of the world, but there is an end. Xiaotang finished crying, cleaned up his mood, and moved out of bed. When she looked at her phone, it was three o'clock in the afternoon, and she planned to take two more hours of self-examination courses, and then pack up and go out to dinner with Zhu Hao. The online teacher spoke quickly about the courseware, where could she listen. I am thirty-two years old, and my life is a mess, I want to work without a job, I want to get married or not, I want to identify with self-worth without self-worth...... Bao Xiaotang never told Zhu Hao about his abortion from beginning to end, and he didn't plan to tell him.

I don't know if I can get pregnant smoothly in the future - Bao Xiaotang often cried about it late at night recently. I don't know what Zhu Hao will think of her after knowing these ugly things about her? Why didn't he care so much about what he thought of her, Xiaotang? She could not find an urge to give her ministry to him properly, but she fantasized that he would treat her well and take her hand into the marriage hall. Bao Xiaotang is contradictory and inferior, inferior to himself who is no longer young.

Don't be cranky, don't be cranky anymore - Xiaotang interrupted himself. She should listen to the lectures well and cherish the rare career gap for self-improvement; She should get along with Zhu Hao well and cherish this hard-won fate. With that, she pulled out scratch paper and took notes while listening to the lecture.

In the middle of the evening, Yang Yang, who was doing her homework, frowned slightly and pouted slightly, she slowly raised her head and said to the old man in a disgusted tone: "Grandpa, can you stop smoking!" ”

"Oops! More than your mother! Success, success! Who makes you love to listen to you! The old horse finished, smiled and extinguished the redness in the cigarette warehouse, and by the way, he reached out and plucked the smoke around him.

"My mom doesn't care much!" Yang Yang retorted loudly.

"Your mother doesn't care too much—how do you know!"

"Because she hasn't come home yet!" Yang Yang slapped the table.

"Okay, good, yours are right!" The old man is at ease.

After a while, Yangyang spoke with a little worry: "Then is my father coming back today?" ”

"If he doesn't come back, where will he live!" Seeing that the eyes of the people were dull, the old horse quickly and softly explained: "Your father comes back every time!" It's just that you came back late, you fell asleep early when he came back, and you haven't gotten up before he gets up early to work, so you can't see your dad! ”

"Why did he come back late?" Yangyang's face was full of understanding.

"Because he's going to work!"

"Why does he have to work?"

"It's not ......" Lao Ma couldn't answer, so he asked, "Is your mother going out to work?" ”

Yang Yang nodded slightly.

"Adults have to go to work! Like your mother, you only get paid when you go to work! So you and your brother have to buy toys, go to school, eat or something, and then you have to be rich! The old horse looked solemn.

"But my dad didn't go to work before!"

"I know! But...... Your dad doesn't go to work and your mom is stressed......" Lao Ma didn't know how to explain, and after pondering for a while, he spoke again: "Every adult has to work, just like every doll has to go to school!" ”

"Why?"

"Nothing!" The old horse couldn't answer, and he wasn't happy to answer.

"Then why don't you go to work?"

"Ye is an old man!" Lao Ma saw that Yangyang couldn't understand Shaanxi dialect, so he converted it into a Mandarin version of Shaanxi dialect and said: "Grandpa is an old man!" The old man doesn't have to go to work, because the old man is old, he can't work, and he has no strength! Wan Lao Ma patted his body, pretending to be weak and weak.

"And when you quarreled with my mother...... Why is there so much strength? Yang Yang's eyelashes fluttered, and her eyes brightly asked.

"Tsk! Well! The old horse was choked and speechless, swallowed, and smiled helplessly: "Are you avenging your mother?" Is it to avenge your mother? Is it specifically to do it with grandpa......" reached out and scraped his granddaughter's nose with his crooked index finger.

"Hey, hey, hey...... Giggling...... "In the empty night, in the empty room, the two of them laughed hoarsely and crisply.

Just after ten o'clock in the evening, the family finally got together. Tsai Tsai held his mobile phone on the sofa and asked everyone: "So, how did you spend the Mid-Autumn Festival?" ”

"It's the same as ever! What other tricks can you live! Oh yes, your uncle is also here, I called the first two times, and he came over for a few Mid-Autumn Festival! Gui Ying slumped on the sofa and replied while swiping her phone.

"He didn't dare to come!" The old horse shook his head and interjected, and snorted coldly.

"If my uncle is busy, you can't come! Why don't you dare to come'? My mom and dad never forced me! Grandpa, you're too authoritarian to your children! "Boys and cows

"This year, except for the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is the largest, he doesn't come to the Mid-Autumn Festival, is this like a word?" Lao Ma explained.

Tsai scratched his hair and recalled: "My uncle didn't come every year before! ”

"That's because I'm not here! I'm here this year, he's a hundred and ten kilometers away from here, and if he doesn't come there so closely! "The old horse is on the score.

"Your grandfather is old and stubborn, don't entangle with him!" Gui Ying persuaded her son.

"This year's Mid-Autumn Festival...... We don't have holidays! Zhiyuan sat on the side and interjected softly.

"What are you doing! There is no holiday in the Mid-Autumn Festival! The old horse turned to face Zhiyuan, swaying with dissatisfaction.

Zhiyuan was embarrassed, and Zai Zai hurriedly adjusted when he saw this: "I guessed it a long time ago!" There are no holidays in the mall, and the more holidays you work, the busier you are!

"No, we also have a holiday, but it's not the Mid-Autumn Festival, it's a post-holiday holiday." Zhiyuan explained.

"It's not like you're not letting go!" The old horse bites the truth.

"Now the people in this city have a family of three for the Spring Festival and have a bad time, let alone the Mid-Autumn Festival! Do you think this is our township? During the Dragon Boat Festival, your juniors will give you gifts one by one, and you will receive another round of gifts in the Mid-Autumn Festival, and another round in the New Year! You haven't landed on your own to give gifts to your elders for the holidays and run all your life, do you still think that you will be an elder in your generation? Gui Ying finished and sighed.

"Who's for them that little courtesy! Visiting relatives during the Chinese New Year holidays in China - this is a big deal! Second only to birth, old age, sickness and death! I'm going to be in Majiatun this time, can I not go to your grandfather's house when it comes to the Mid-Autumn Festival? Your uncle's daughter, your aunt's baby, dare not come to me in the Mid-Autumn Festival? After the old horse finished, he glanced at Gui Ying.

"That's why I don't like to go back! When I went back that year, Brother Xingcai and his wife and sister got married, and I told me to go—who? Ever seen it? People with bad corners and left sides are counted as relatives! I'll just ask what it matters me about my cousin's sister-in-law's marriage! I hate these bad rural habits the most! Gui Ying had to blow her nose and stare at her.

"Then how do you come back from working outside?" Tsai Tsai was puzzled.

"Those who are far away are exempt, and those who are close must be returned!" After Lao Ma finished answering, he turned his head and pointed at Gui Ying: "Don't you go, in the next village, Xingcai's wife and sister get married, you have to go!" ”

"I'm just across the village – I'm not going either! I'll see who can do anything to me! Obviously, the father and daughter are on the bar.

"It's okay if you don't go, what's going on with you in the future, look at what your Xingcai brother is doing to you!" The old horse was cold and contemptuous.

"How glad I am to have one less relative for such a thing! I can't wait to run to the door to set off fireworks and light cannons! ”

The old horse snorted coldly and did not return the favor.

Gui Ying took advantage of the situation and said: "How many cents do I have to do with other people in my life?" In the future, my aunt's family, my aunt's family, and my uncle's relatives will be able to walk around and walk around and be clean! In the future, Xingcai, Xingbo, and Xingcheng will do these, unless they are dead, I will do a portal remotely for other things! Don't brainwash me with your elm pimple truth! Don't stop the old years, the rules of the old days, you have to stick to your old habits, don't drag us into the water! ”

Father and daughter, you and I are fighting hard one round, and the father and son on the side smile silently at each other from time to time.

The people in the city celebrate the New Year so ordinarily that they don't have any human touch at all—they sneer at the old horse when they sleep at night. The village has the Dragon Boat Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the spring is busy and the autumn is busy and in a hurry, and it is necessary to stop running relatives, not to mention the Spring Festival - Laba drinks Laba porridge, and begins to clean, clean, purchase, steamed steamed buns, fried twist flowers, braised meat, and dumplings after the New Year...... Before the year, I was busy for more than ten years, and after the new year, I didn't have to worry about food and clothing, and I only had to go to my relatives to pay New Year's greetings. The first year of junior high school worships the clansmen, the second daughter-in-law of junior high school goes back to her parents' house, the third junior high school nephew and niece worship uncle, and the fourth junior high school niece worships aunt...... Hate thousands of years of tradition, broken by the city.

What made the old man even more angry was that Zhiyuan's logistics work was not even the Mid-Autumn Festival. He finally took the first step, but he didn't expect that the job he found was difficult to explain - he wanted a salary without wages, he wanted benefits without benefits, he wanted to be decent or not, and even legal holidays were deducted. As an old man, how can you calm down?

Who doesn't want to marry a good aunt? Conduct is one of them, single-mindedness is the second, down-to-earth and enterprising is the third, hard-working is the fourth, as for appearance, economic conditions, family background and so on. Zhiyuan is perfect at first glance, but you can think about it carefully, who is willing to want a perfect aunt who doesn't support a family?

Don't be his uncle's identity, just he is a husband and a father, Lao Ma as an elder is really difficult to evaluate Niu Zhiyuan, based on professional advantages, he knows how to educate his children, he is always patient and generous in doing things, he is not afraid of hardships and is willing to dedicate himself at home...... But Lao Ma is obsessed with the role of the leader, which is very different from He Zhiyuan.

First of all, the family must be male, the head of the family. Secondly, when the family should be strong, stoic and persevering, even if the roof of the family is torn down, he can continue to live in peace. Moreover, the head of the house is rude and informal, and those things that are green and garlic go to the mother-in-law's house; Finally, when the family encounters difficulties, dare to speak up. I really didn't dare to compare them one by one, Lao Ma was afraid that his disappointment with this son-in-law would overshadow his reason.

His daughter is not a princess or daughter, and the old village chief's requirements are not high, so it doesn't matter if he can't reach it, there must be a few points that can be served. On the other hand, Zhiyuan is always too worried, so worried that he forgets to move forward and how to go.

He is such a smart and wise person, why doesn't he know how to plan ahead. Relying on a woman to support your family now is tantamount to digging a well when you are thirsty. Kicking a weak woman out to solve the urgent needs of a family of four, no wonder she is greedy for money, no wonder she drinks. Listening to a woman's words inside and out, is he a great husband?

When I was a child, my husband taught "self-cultivation and family governance" and forget it - few people can achieve it, but for a lifetime, you always have to be attentive to some things, and you always have to fight for one thing for half a life, so you can live in vain. The hat under the rule of the country is too big for mortals to wear, and it is not too much for a man to talk about self-cultivation and Qi family. Lao Ma has seen a good job, and there are many of them, even if they are farmers, they are worthy of respect. Lao Ma didn't realize how successful he had been in cultivating his family in his life, but he didn't think he was a failure when he reflected on himself.

He and his wife are depressed and angry, and this day seems to be harmonious, but in fact, there are many loopholes. Zhiyuan's temperament is soft and soft, and he is silent even if he is overworked; Gui Ying has a strong temperament, and even if she is frustrated in her business, she will not be convinced. The father is unkind and the son is not filial, the husband is unrighteous and the woman is not obedient, people are effective and forceful, so it may be okay for the two to live a lifetime, but what about the boy and Yangyang? It seems that there is nothing wrong with it now, and in the future, they will have their own families, and I don't know if the two children will have problems left in their parents' generation.

One person is dissatisfied with another person, even if he does not say anything or express his position, no matter how high or low EQ and IQ is, the other person is sentient. Different emotions float in the air like different tastes, invisible and intangible, but smelled by the associated noses. My father-in-law, who has always regarded himself very highly and is actually really respectable, must not look down on his own work, I am afraid that he will not look down on this job either, it is just a transition, but the transition is very embarrassing. Zhiyuan, who had done a lot of work, was tired early, and he yawned frequently when the father and daughter were arguing at ten o'clock, but at this moment he didn't feel sleepy after twelve o'clock in the middle of the night - maybe because his waist was sore and swollen, maybe because his fingers were shaking uncontrollably after doing too much heavy work, maybe because his head was slightly dizzy...... After suffering in bed for an hour and a half, I still couldn't sleep.

Zhiyuan got out of bed and walked out of the room barefoot, came to the restaurant to drink water, and smoked by the way. I don't know how many cigarettes there are, he groped in the dark for a while, but fortunately found it, and then found the old man's lighter, and a cigarette was finally lit. The posture of holding smoke and swallowing is not so proficient, and he can use smoke to blur his perception but make him fascinated and relaxed. The spirit is no longer anxious, but the body is difficult to endure - people have to endure the same. Tired that you don't have to think, but you are tired of being tired. Life is so naughty, trying to play tricks on people.

I don't know how much work my father-in-law and his second uncle are doing in the field? It must not be easy, otherwise there would not be so many people fleeing the land in every possible way. How did the old man persist in working in the field all his life, Zhiyuan couldn't figure it out, but he was a little out of breath after a few physical jobs he had done. I am afraid that none of the great truths taught him in those books could alleviate his disgust and rejection when faced with physical work.

Those who still stick to the land are hard and happy. Life without thinking is a happy one.

Zhiyuan suddenly remembered the story of the old man guarding the green onions in the green onion field. Those acres of green onions restrain the lives of a few people, and there is an old man who has to carry the cold and grit his teeth to protect it. As for himself, the reason why he wanted to give up after doing a few jobs was just because someone was supporting him. Good work, Yingying. Zhiyuan shook the ashes of his cigarette, and assumed in his heart: If Yangyang and Zaizai have no money to go to school and no money to eat, if the old mother in Hunan lies alone in bed and endures the pain, what will he do? He must have done his best to protect the rafters as his father-in-law did—and that's because he had no choice.

Life without choice is sad and fiery. It was a pity that there was no such deadly situation to oppress him, so he wandered alone like a purposeless elk on the green and vast plateau.

A life with too many divergent paths often doesn't go far.

Zhiyuan was inexplicably worried about himself. There is no destination for the arrow, and it is wrong to shoot anywhere. Driving without direction is more exhausting than standing still.

After the freshmen group performances, night singing and other activities, more than 20 military training came to an end last Saturday. Zhong Xuemei, who was extremely tired, did not eat on weekends, sleeping from morning to night, and from night to morning. On Monday, she officially started her college course with her textbook, and when she took a break in the evening, she suddenly remembered that her mother's birthday was coming, and the female college student hurriedly picked up the night light to pick out a birthday gift for her mother, and did not forget to buy strong and durable clothes for her grandfather and younger brother.

At around ten o'clock in the morning on Tuesday, Gui Ying was bored in the office, and suddenly opened her best friend Sanrao's WeChat group and shouted inside: "Dear friends, how do you spend the Mid-Autumn Festival?" ”

After a long time, Xiaotang replied: "How can I live alone!" ”

"Who are you, don't you have a partner? The Mid-Autumn Festival is here, let's take a look! Gui Ying teased Xiaotang through the screen.

"He's on a business trip! So, how can I live alone! ”

"Come with us!"

"Just wait for my sister's words!"

"Is your sister on vacation?"

"Don't let go of the Mid-Autumn Festival, put two and a half in the back, and then you can take one day off later."

"Oh, you see! What about Meimei's grandfather? ”

"I don't know about this, I haven't been to the shop for a long time!" Xiaotang on the other side of the screen remembered the last time she saw Uncle Zhong, she still lied to her sister about her divorce, although she later confessed to her sister and knew that the misunderstanding was resolved, Xiaotang still didn't want to go to the shop anymore.

"I'm afraid that there won't be enough people in the Mid-Autumn Festival this year! Your brother Zhiyuan doesn't have a holiday in the Mid-Autumn Festival, and then your sister and Uncle Zhong may not be there, how do you spend this festival? Gui Ying was worried.

"Hey...... Anyway, you organize, as long as you organize, I'll come over with mooncakes to make up the numbers! If it's inconvenient for you, I'll wait for my sister to have a holiday and pull the three of them together! ”

"Okay, got it."

The two sides are done, and each is busy with its own work.

A new store opened on Tuesday, and there was a lot of garbage at the door, which happened to be the street where Zhong Neng was in charge, and he was afraid that he would not have time to pick up his children because he was too busy with work, so he had to call Hyosung. Hakseung waited at school for more than a while, and finally waited for his mother, and after the mother and son finished eating, Hyosung sent his son back to the farmer's market. knew that Zhong Li was looking at the store at this time, so she resolutely did not enter the shop, and she didn't even want to enter the door of the farmer's market.

"Chengcheng, mom has to go to work at night, you can go back by yourself!" At the gate of the farmer's market, Hyosung squatted in front of his son to sort out his clothes.

"Hmm." Xuecheng nodded.

"Go back and do your homework and look less at your phone!"

"Hmm." Xuecheng snorted again with an expressionless face.

"That...... You'll sleep in the bunk tonight, and Mom will pick you up tomorrow morning! ”

"Hmm."

Hyosung was a little helpless in the face of his son's silence. In the end, she touched her son's hair, said "go back", and after completing her studies, she carried her schoolbag and entered the market without looking back. Looking at his son's back, Hyosung bit his lip with mixed feelings. She even worries about sending her son home - worried that people who are familiar with her bumped into her and asked questions, worried that she saw that Zhong Li didn't know how to face it, and she was reluctant to come here, and she had the idea of returning to the shop.

She is still obsessed with the past, she still thinks about Zhong Li's goodness, she still has hope for this marriage, otherwise why would she even send her son home sneaky? Her will and her current situation caught her way, and Bao Xiaoxing was afraid that she would lose her mind, so she hurriedly turned around and left.

All she longed for was peace and steadfastness, she missed the quiet days in the countryside before, and she had a glimmer of hope for life and life, which was ridiculous that he couldn't even give her this glimmer of hope.

She was on her own. Hyosung walked briskly along the way, afraid that an acquaintance would see her moist and red eyes.
