Chapter 57: New Year's Engagement

Mom smiled and replied, "Mmmm, you are a sensible child." Rest assured, I'm not unreasonable. Father Xiang and I, nothing will trouble you, and we will never drag others down. Just live your little life. ”

Only I know that my mother's words are good to pass through my ears, and I can't take them seriously.

It's another year of farewell to the old and welcome the new, and the whole city is full of the lively atmosphere of the New Year.

Dad called and said he wanted to get together, but Mom said that he didn't want to be involved and refused to meet.

On the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the family was extremely deserted, and my mother did not agree to meet at dinner, so I had to go to see my father. I had dinner with my mother at noon, and I made an appointment with my father in the evening.

In the restaurant, my father ordered a table of good dishes, and he is usually very picky, and this time he is a big deal, basically I usually like to eat.

Dad didn't use any chopsticks, the amount of food was very small, less than that of a three- or five-year-old child, and he lost a lot of weight.

Dad put some food in the bowl but didn't move much, and talked about my work and engagement.

"If you get married, I'll give you a big red envelope, and I'll personally give 20,000." Dad said with a grin.

Actually, I didn't want to accept my father's money, but my father felt that it was his intention and couldn't refuse, so I agreed.

I clinked glasses with my father, said some words of blessing, watched him lose weight, and told my father to check his body more and call me to go with him when he went to the hospital.

Dad nodded in relief.

On the way back, it suddenly rained heavily. Dad made a few dishes for me to bring back, saying that my mother didn't come to eat with her, and made some good dishes for her to taste.

It rained so hard that you could wet your clothes and pants with an umbrella. There are still many people setting off fireworks at this time on rainy days, it should be eight o'clock, and the Spring Festival Gala has begun.

The bus was empty, and there were three or four of me. Watching the wind outside the window stir the treetops and sway, the thunder and lightning illuminate the glass window, and the raindrops flow down in strings like teardrops on the face, and the faint light of the street lamps is intertwined with the dark night, flickering and dimming. With my face reflected outside the window, you can't tell if it's rain or tears, right?

In order to prevent motion sickness, I opened a little window, and the rain blew in and flew on my face, and I couldn't tell the difference between tears and rain.

"The passengers in the back closed the windows and turned on the air conditioning." The driver said with a small horn.

With a red face, I was shocked to realize that the air conditioner was actually turned on in the car, and I wanted to use the rain to cover the tears on my face, but now I quickly closed the window and wiped the water on my face.

Back home, the house was deserted as usual. Mom turned off the lights and went to bed.

I tiptoed to the door of my mother's room to glance around.

When my mother heard the noise, she got up and leaned against the head of the bed, and asked, "Alas, I'm not against you accompanying your father for the New Year, but you have to go back early, I can't sleep well." ”

"I came back immediately after eating, without delay. Dad said that these dishes are made by themselves and given to you. I lifted the bag in my hand.

Mom got up and took it and looked at it, then went to the kitchen and poured it back into the bowl.

"Tut-tut, this is too unpretentious, it doesn't taste good at first glance, won't you refuse it for me? You know I've always disliked taking his stuff! Mom muttered as she laid the plate.

Leaning against the kitchen door, I silently watched that there was no sound of pits.

"Look at this meat, it's so fatty, I can't eat it. If you look at this fish again, it won't taste good. I turned down everything he gave me before, and said that he wanted to travel with me, and I didn't want to go with me! Do you know why he's turning sexual now? Don't you just want me to serve him?! ”

The more my mother talked, the more angry she became, shaking her head and sighing.

I even felt that I accepted my father's things and wanted to get the two of them together in a premeditated way.

"Where have you put me now? Let him drag me back?! I knew you were helping Xiang and his family! ”

It didn't take long for the phone to ring.

It was my dad who called, and asked if I was home safely.

"Won't you call Xiang Wan directly? Why call home? Do you have to go through my hands? Don't call here if it's okay in the future. Mom put down the phone angrily.

Mom nagged for a long time, but was interrupted by the sound of firecrackers and did not continue.

I leaned back at the end of the bed and watched the TV numbly, without the slightest sense of festivity.

This home is the least suitable for the holidays.

Mu Liang knew that I hated the holidays, and he would talk to me about various topics at this time, but without him by his side, he still felt empty.

Chu Simu Liang and his parents came to Nancheng, and the parents of both sides made an appointment to meet.

Mu Liang's parents looked at me and nodded with a smile. Making my heart feel less nervous, Mu Liang stood beside me and gently squeezed my hand.

Everyone at the dinner table was very polite, chatting about work and family, and then talking about weddings.

By Mu Liang's parents according to me and Mu Liang's working hours. Set a date and hold it in the South City.

After that, it's time to prepare for the trivialities of the wedding.

The frequency of my mother's tantrums became more frequent. Maybe it's because of anxiety and loneliness.

"Mom, you can usually go square dancing, or sing, I think it's pretty good, life is a little fun."

"Don't go!"

I pursed my lips and sighed softly.

"Huh? Why do you ask me if I want to square dance? I know I don't like it, but if I like it, do I want you to remind me? What do you mean by saying that all of a sudden? Think I'm in the way? ”

I seem to have said the wrong thing again.

The old mother pushed the dishes on the dinner table and said angrily: "Look at what you like to eat, your parents are old and in the way, right?!" Look at Aunt Shen's daughter, she got married and bought a set of health products for her mother. What about you?! I'm down-to-earth to you, I cook to your taste every day, and now you want to kick me away?! ”

Maybe my mother is reluctant to let me go, so my emotions are even more difficult to control.

On the weekend, I bought my mother an i3 tablet and downloaded her favorite videos and games.

Thinking that my mother can have a little fun after I get married.

As a result, the Internet at home is not good, and every time I watch a video, I get a special card. My mother began to dislike me for buying parallel goods, or second-hand goods, and sent her away.

even complained in front of Mu Liang.

The strange thing is that since Mu Liang said that he would buy a house in the future, his mother's attitude towards Mu Liang has been better, and everyone has praised him before and after, and the matter of the tablet computer has also been explained by Mu Liang before giving up.

My mother has always asked to participate in the purchase of the wedding, and Mu Liang and I agreed to do it ourselves as much as possible. I know my mother's temper, and if she receives her benefits, she will have to peel it back even harder. It's not that I'm unwilling to pay, but at this time, we are under a lot of pressure. All the expenses of the wedding were paid by Mu Liang himself, his mother made one request a day, and all the requirements put forward in the end, no matter how difficult and harsh they were, Mu Liang did all of them.

Because of the purchase of the wedding, Mu Liang and I got it done. My mother even felt that I was going to kick her out of my life circle, which caused another unpleasantness.

Originally, I thought that my mother was reluctant to give me up, but this time I found out that this was not the case.
