Chapter 11: Back to School
The process and outcome of my mother's quarrel with me were similar to my father's, but I could only refute her, after all, she was my mother, and I could neither insult nor do anything, so I had to bear it with trepidation.
It's cold, and it's even colder at home. Dad didn't come back, and Mom and I were in a cold war.
Mom cooked the meal and ate it first. I finished my meal and sat down next to her as usual. Before I could sit down, my mother put some food in her bowl and went to the room.
I sighed softly and whispered, "Mom, eat here." ”
Mom didn't answer, as if she hadn't heard, but turned on the TV even louder.
"Mom, aren't you going to order any more food?" I knew that my mother was deliberate, but I still shouted in the direction of my mother again.
Mom glared at me sideways, and then turned back to watch TV with a cold face, her eyes as cold as when she was arguing with Dad. I began to understand a little bit why my father used to call my mother to eat when we quarreled, but no matter how much I tried to persuade him, he stopped shouting.
Actually, I was a little nervous when I was alone with my mother. Eating time always feels very long, and sometimes I think that it would be nice if people could not eat.
Every time at this time, I will serve less rice, anyway, the taste is the same as chewing wax, and the food is tasteless. Immersed in the speed of eating, I just want to get off the table as soon as possible.
When my mom came over, my heart jumped.
"Do you have a mother? Do you have me in your heart? When you said in your sophomore year that you were going to go to graduate school, didn't you just want to die in a foreign country? Now you say that you don't like to be a civil servant, so you deliberately failed the exam, right? As soon as my mother's voice came out, my heart sank.
After so many years, I haven't adapted to it, and I haven't let myself practice King Kong is not bad, reminding my father that the left ear goes in and the right ear goes out, but in fact, I can't do it myself.
"Nope! I didn't mean to! It's really hard to get in! If it's not what I'm good at, I won't be able to pass the test! "I argued, I can bear the scolding, but I can't stand the grievances and wrongs.
"Yes! Say it now! If you're not good at it, you won't be able to pass the test! Doesn't that mean you did it on purpose? Isn't that just a scold? "Mom can always take a few turns around what other people are saying to understand.
"I'm not scared! I mean, I wouldn't, not that much! Naturally, you can't pass the test! But I did try my best to read. ”
"Are you stupid? Are other people's children smart? Mom glared and poked chopsticks in my head.
"Then I'm stupid, I can't help it." I put down the night, walked briskly to my room, closed the door and tried to calm down.
Unexpectedly, my mother followed closely, unscrewed the door, pointed and shouted, "This is my house!" My door is just for you to live in, you have no right to close it! I want you to live, you can live! I don't want you to live, so you can fuck me off! ”
I don't understand what the reason for giving birth to me is, she will create learning conditions for me during my studies, because of her training, I can go to university. I've always thought so, so I'm grateful to my mom. But every now and then, I can't help but cry. What has changed now?
"Back then, the fortune teller said that your daughter should be cultivated well, and you will rely on your daughter in the future, one top three people. Now it seems, what do I rely on you? After raising it for so many years, I knew it earlier, so I might as well have beaten it at the beginning. Mom banged on the door, and it slammed.
I looked out the window with tears in my eyes, and the people outside should have heard it, and I pinched my hand, but it didn't hurt. At this time, I couldn't help but climb down from this building.
"I'll tell you again! You will not come back after graduation! I don't ask you! It's good if you don't rely on me, you're still a person who doesn't have a fart! After scolding, my mother went out.
I heard her go out of the house, greet acquaintances at the door of the unit, laugh and talk, as if nothing had happened in the house and had nothing to do with her.
I silently told myself that my mother was deeply loving and responsible, and the way was wrong. Hold back and make some achievements in the future, it will be fine.
I silently wept and flipped through my phone. Obviously his vision was blurred, but he could accurately stay on Mu Liang's name, and he scrolled through the messages he sent, and a drop of crystal things dropped on the screen. I waved my hand and wiped it off, but the more I wiped, the more I wiped, and one accidentally dialed out the phone.
When there was a "beep~" sound, I hurriedly poked the screen and hung up. I breathed a sigh of relief, but my heart was fluttering.
In a few seconds, the screen lit up, and the caller ID was him.
I wiped away my tears, even though he couldn't see them, licked my chapped lips and pressed the phone.
Reply to the text message past: I accidentally made a mistake, sorry.
"Well, it's okay, it's a pity that I didn't receive it just now, did you buy a return ticket?" Mu Liang replied.
He must have wanted to ask me when I was going back to school.
"Well, I bought it." I didn't plan to tell him the number.
"Oh, it's good to buy it, I'm happy for you to grab the ticket, and I'm a little unhappy that you're leaving."
I touched my face, it was a little hot. I don't know if it's because I'm crying and blushing, or because I read Mu Liang's text messages.
"I want to send you there, can I?" Before I could figure out how to reply, Mu Liang sent it again.
"No, no, my parents will send me there." I turned him down, and I knew I was a little insincere.
"Okay, then you be careful on the road, will you still take that Kxxx train? Is it OK to stay in touch? As before, it's always okay to have a chat, right? Mu Liang may have sensed my attitude, but his series of sincere words made it difficult for me to refuse.
"Uh-huh." After I replied to his text message, my heart was much more settled. Mu Liang seems to have magical powers, which can always pull me back from the brink of emotional breakdown.
Every time I go home, I want to run back to school, counting the days with my fingers crossed. It's strange that this time home is still not peaceful, and although I started to talk to my mother normally for the remaining few days, I was also walking on thin ice. I don't seem to feel so hard anymore, when I look at Mu Liang's words when I'm sad, I feel that there is someone not far away to accompany me, and there is still warmth. I grasp this warmth and am reluctant to let go, is this irresponsible behavior?
When it was finally time to go home, my dad came to see me off. They didn't say a word to each other, and I didn't want to get involved anymore. On the surface, I can live in harmony like this, and I am very content.
Along the way, when I avoided my mom and dad, I would sneak around and look around.
What do you think! He shouldn't come! He's not like last time, and this time he doesn't know when I'm leaving. I thought to myself, I think I'm stupid like this.
During this time, the station is restricted, and no one without a ticket can enter the station. Mom and Dad didn't come in, and after saying a few words to pay attention to their bodies, they waved goodbye.
I went in and watched them disperse from afar, and I pursed my lips and comforted myself: this is good, at least there is not much chance of fighting.
When I turned around, I seemed to see a person in a trance, and I looked back to see it more clearly. I was crowded by a few travelers with children, and the crowd came in waves, and I didn't have a chance to look for that person again.
When I got in the car, I was still nervous and sent him a text message: You should be about to start school, right? At school now?
Soon he sent me back: "Well, I didn't want to tell you, but I didn't want to lie to you, I wanted to send you off at the station." ”
So was it really him just now? I wasn't mistaken, and I replied in surprise: "How do you know I'm leaving today?" ”
"Well, in fact, I didn't see if it was you just now, the KXXX train to Rongcheng is only one trip a day, that is, the time we last time. I've been here for three days, and I want to try my luck, but you have discovered so many people. ”
When I saw Mu Liang's text message, I was stunned. It's a silly boy, but it's very warm in my heart.
The train was leaving, and I saw the trees and grass flashing outside the window, and winter had passed, right? Spring is coming, right?
