Chapter 62: The Tragic Life of an Intermediary 2
Mom snorted, "As soon as I tell you this, you say you don't have any money." So what kind of marriage? Mu Liang is so capable? How did you promise me in the first place? What else is this second home to buy? ”
"Mom, I still have to make money here to support my family, hold a wedding, and decorate the house. According to young people of this age, Mu Liang can support these alone, which is really amazing. ”
"Huh! If you live here, give me some living expenses, and I don't need yours. Can't my mother's family still post money?! Mom was very dissatisfied, "Then again! It's not that I care if you ask for things or money, but you have to know a little bit about people! Don't keep a straight face, like I owe you......"
Until Mu Liang came home in the evening, his mother was still unhappy. And I had to pretend that nothing happened, laughing and laughing.
Mu Liang saw his mother's displeasure, and asked me in a low voice in the room what was going on.
I didn't elaborate, just said that my mother has a weird personality and may be in a bad mood.
Mu Liang glanced at me carefully, trying to find something in my expression.
Mu Liang, who had just taken a bath, was a little cold and shivering. Got into the quilt and stretched out his hand around my waist, leaned his neck on my shoulder, and said quietly, "Is the water heater broken over here?" The bath water is hot and cold. ”
"Well, there's a little bit, let's find someone to fix it another day." I tried to push away Mu Liang's outstretched hand.
Who would have thought that his strength was very great.
After a while, I placed an order to buy a new one and put it on my mother, and she might be in a better mood. She's in a good mood, and you're in a good mood too. Mu Liang said this while smiling and covering the quilt.
In the afternoon of the next day, the workers brought back the water heater and arranged for someone to install it.
When my mother saw Mu Liang busy coming in and out, she also stretched her brows, and I secretly breathed a sigh of relief in my heart.
When I was making materials at night, I looked at the flashing mouse in a daze. Mom slept peacefully this time, and Mu Liang was busy drawing. I couldn't calm down, I should be glad that my mother's anger was suppressed, but my heart was not steady.
Nancheng's naivety is really strange, it is obviously spring, and a burst of coolness rushes in through the crack in the door.
Mu Liang took my hand and let my hand reach into his clothes to warm up.
It's a day to live. I said silently in my heart. Looking at Mu Liang's silhouette, it is not bad to have him by his side and enjoy the current years together.
There are very few classes in the calligraphy group, one point for each font, and there are fewer classes per week, and sometimes you have to stay at home all day.
Today, I only had afternoon classes and went home for dinner.
"You're at home a lot of hours now, or you're working late shifts." Mom squinted at me, and there seemed to be displeasure in her tone.
"Well, there's less class time." I pursed my lips and didn't dare look up at my mother's eyes.
"Huh! I think you want to pay back the living expenses you paid, right?! With two or three meals a day, you don't suffer at all! ”
Mom's words shocked me to look at her with round eyes.
"What? Isn't it?! In the past, you used to eat by yourself at work. You can eat at home often this semester! How? I'm afraid of losing money, right? You're so good! ”
It's a shame that my mother's brain can think of this.
"Mom, you used to say that when I was a child, when my grandmother took me, you subsidized my grandmother's living expenses. Grandma gives me delicious food every time, and grandma also said that if you don't give money, you have to raise it, and if you give money, you have to eat and drink well, don't you have to buy flowers to wear in practice? Mom, why is there such a big difference between you and grandma? ”
In fact, as soon as I said this, I regretted it, I knew that my mother had to be crooked again, and I couldn't tell it if I had a hundred more mouths.
"Hah! You're going to do it yourself, aren't you?! You just think you're giving me money, you're losing a lot! So eat it back! Mom sneered.
This kind of laughter made my heart hairy and goosebumps on my arms.
"I mean, you and Grandma's personalities are too different! I didn't want to eat it back, but it's normal to eat at home, right? Do I have to go to work to eat even if I don't have classes? ”
"You! You're just a good man! Stingy! It's so caring for your mother's family! Raise you so big for nothing! If you give money, you should spend it! You're so considerate of your mother! What else do you say to rely on your daughter, just like you, do I rely on you? ”
"Mom, it's really unconscionable for you to say that. We live at home, and we buy all the slightly more expensive things that are lacking in the house, even the laundry detergent. I also paid for living expenses, and I didn't deliberately want to stay at home to eat......"
"I say one word, you say ten! You listen to me first, and then you interject! People's filial daughters, you have to pull back, thinking of ways to subsidize your mother's family, you are good! Still gnawing at the old? Are you embarrassed?! Mom banged on the table and got angry.
I was about to open my mouth to retort.
My mother scolded angrily again: "Don't intervene! I'm not done yet! I didn't finish my heart! How much does your laundry detergent cost? Do you want me to count it for you?! ”
My mother went to the room and took a big bill and flew it in front of me.
"Take it! You deserve to gnaw on the old! Keep this and that in mind! Why don't you write it down in a notebook?! White-eyed wolf! You think so much about your husband's family, you two will have to live for a long time! Don't break up! If you break up, I won't take you in! Mom gritted her teeth, clenching her fists so that the knuckles were tense and white.
His eyes were sour, tears were rolling down and dripping on the paper, the words seemed to be magnified, and the ink stains between the horizontal and vertical strokes became blurred.
"What do you like to eat, and what do I not prepare seriously? You just can't see the money given to me?! The two of them are here, won't the electricity, water, and gas bills be more? Mom shouted angrily as she went back to the kitchen and pounded the pot with a spatula.
"Mom, I don't really care what I eat, even if I drink some white porridge and eat some pickles every day, as long as I am happy and harmonious, it will be good. None of us should be so sensitive, okay? I choked up.
"Heh, drink porridge? Are you punching me in the face?! What does Mu Liang think? Say that my mother-in-law lost money? Yueyue takes the money and can't see anything to eat?! You're really a middleman! My mother rushed out of the kitchen with a spatula, pointed at me and said fiercely, "You head, I really want to dig open with a spoon!" ”
"What do you mean, Mom?"
"I mean you don't drill too sharply! Don't be too precise! I'm your mother! Not your babysitter......"
"Good, good." Nodding with tears in his eyes.
Climb onto the bed and squat in the corner of the bed. Lying on his arm, let the tears run freely.
In fact, every time I am at home, I try not to trouble my mother too much. It is mainly simple, and it is a meal that can be passed away. When Mu Liang went home for dinner, his mother would cook another good dish.
I don't know what my mother was doing in the kitchen at this time, and the spatula was banging.
I can't eat angry food.
When the meal arrived, my mother ate alone by the living room, and the sound of chewing echoed in the empty house.
But no one spoke.
