Chapter 11 Our ages don't match
Hearing this answer, Lu Xingchen only felt that it was expected.
Therefore, he looked calm, "You don't hate me, I already feel very relieved, although there are not many reasons to like someone, but if you don't like it, there is always a reason, let's talk about it!" ”
His tone remained as gentle as ever, not aggressive, but rather cautious.
Mencius was a little surprised.
Therefore, she didn't want to be perfunctory, so she racked her brains for a while, but what came to her mind was all his excellent impression, and she had to scold herself in her heart for being unambitious. At this time, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in her head, and she turned to him and said solemnly, "We don't match our age!" ”
Lu Xingchen was stunned for a while, and couldn't help laughing, "I thought you would say some substantive reason, but I didn't expect you to be age-discriminate!" ”
Mencius retorted, "Don't you know that there is a generation gap when you are too old? ”
The corners of Lu Xingchen's mouth hooked slightly, "Then let me ask you, do you know what the real meaning of the generation gap is?" It refers to the fact that there is a great difference in outlook on life and values between two generations because of different ages and living environments, and there is a situation where there is no communication. ”
Mencius gritted his teeth a little, "Are you still human?" ”
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a shout from Meng Ma in the corridor, "Mencius, come out and meet your Aunt Qin!" ”
"What? Aunt Qin! Mencius panicked and took a step back vigilantly, "You... You're here today, shouldn't it be... It's to mention... Dear it! ”
Lu Xingchen frowned incredulously, "I'm really willing to bow to your logic," and explained, "I went to the rental house to look for you in the morning, but you have already moved out, and my mother happened to call again and said that she wanted to come to your house as a guest, so I came with her!" ”
Mencius was so embarrassed that he silently turned his back to him.
At this time, Meng's mother urged again, and Mencius quickly turned around and whispered to Lu Xingchen, "The two of us don't go out at the same time, if my mother sees it, she will definitely want to get into trouble!" ”
Lu Xingchen smiled, "Why didn't you tell Auntie that we had a relationship?" ”
Mencius only cared to see if Meng's mother had come, so he blurted out, "Of course I can't tell her, she wants you to be her son-in-law, so I'm not so stupid!" ”
Lu Xingchen, "..."
In the end, Lu Xingchen had no choice but to go out first.
After a while, Mencius came to the living room, Meng Ma saw that she was late, she couldn't help glaring at her, she immediately gasped, and quickly found a place to sit down, which was also the only remaining position on the sofa in the living room, and this position happened to be opposite Lu Xingchen, he sat on the single sofa opposite her, her embarrassment just now seemed to be seen by him, which made him look at her with a smile in the corner of his eyes.
After Mencius sat down, Qin Wenjuan, who was sitting next to Meng's mother, showed an amiable smile and said, "Mencius, do you remember Aunt Qin?" ”
I don't know if it's because of Lu Xingchen's presence or because she's not good at dealing with elders, Mencius felt very restrained, "Of course I remember, Aunt Qin." ”
However, she was attracted by Qin Wenjuan's elegant temperament, and said that her son was like a mother, this Lu Xingchen really inherited excellent genes, unconsciously, her eyes moved to Lu Xingchen again, only to see him with overlapping long legs, sitting elegant and upright, at first glance, he was a child of a noble family with good dogma, and always felt that he was sitting there, which made her living room even more ordinary and cold.
Lu Xingchen was looking at her intentionally or unintentionally, but now the eyes of the two people were on the same page, she was a little embarrassed and hurriedly withdrew her gaze, and a shallow smile appeared on his face.
At this time, Meng Ma suddenly spoke, "Mencius, if you and Xingchen go out for a walk, your Aunt Qin will come over, we still have a lot to say, and Xingchen will finally come here!" ”
Qin Wenjuan echoed, "That's good! Young people have young people to talk about. ”
Mencius was about to refuse, but met Meng's mother's gestured eyes, and this look was irresistibly sharp, Mencius looked at her nose and nose, and she didn't know Meng's mother's intentions, so she had to nod and agree.
And this scene happened to be seen by Lu Xingchen, who was observant. Then, Mencius walked out of the house with great reluctance, Lu Xingchen saw her thoughts, but remained silent, he wanted to see what she did next.
Ten minutes later, Lu Xingchen saw that she was still standing motionless, so he had to go around to her from behind her, "Take you to a place." ”
Before Mencius could react, he took him by the hand and walked.
After walking for about five minutes, he arrived at the place where he said, and it turned out to be a deserted pastoral, the land had dried up and cracked, and the cracked lines were of different shapes, which was very beautiful, and it was very empty, with occasional flocks of birds flying by, and the blue sky and white clouds were more like a poetic field.
Mencius thought about it carefully and suddenly said, "Isn't this the place where we played together when we were children? You remember! ”
Lu Xingchen took a long step, walked down the field, and smiled, "It's rare that you remember it too!" ”
Mencius jumped slightly, but her steps were a little unsteady, and she grabbed the corner of his clothes in a timely and natural manner, "It's rare for you to remember!" ”
Lu Xingchen was strolling along the fields, and Mencius was also walking carelessly behind him, when he suddenly asked her, "Why are you so afraid of Aunt Meng?" ”
Mencius was stunned, "Is it so obvious?" ”
"Hmm!"
Mencius sighed, "It is said that daughters should be rich and sons should be poor, but my mother took the sword and went off the rails, and if she couldn't give birth to a son, she would raise me as a son, so she was very strict with me since I was a child, she said to stand, I can't sit, she said to sit, I can't stand, including what school to study, what friends to make and what work she has to see, and now even the major events of her life, she has to do it for me!" But," she said, smirking triumphantly, "the fact that I moved out of the house is the only thing I dare to disobey her now. ”
Lu Xingchen suddenly stopped and looked at her, "I'm an outsider, what's not good to comment on?" But if you start from the perspective of parents, this may be the expectation of parents for their children, since ancient times, it is not unreasonable for parents to 'hope that their sons will become dragons and their daughters will become phoenixes'."
"Maybe Aunt Meng's approach is a little extreme, but the starting point is always good, you should try to talk to Aunt Meng on an equal footing, so that you won't keep suppressing yourself and doing things you don't like to do, including..." ”
Mencius looked at him with some surprise.
Lu Xingchen continued, "I hope that your marriage is decided by yourself, it doesn't mean that you can exclude me, of course, I have no right to interfere with your right to choose others, from the perspective of litigation, if you are a party, you need to 'take the weight of the two interests', this is called weighing the weight, after all, marriage is not child's play,"
"If two people love each other by dopamine, adrenaline secretion, then marriage is a very real problem, when the passion fades, only trivial firewood, rice, oil and salt, constantly run in to live, and finally it is possible to live a life of chicken feathers, the key is that there are only a handful of men who are willing to live with you to live a chicken feather, because the probability of two people meeting and falling in love is accurate to a few in 10,000, try to ask how do you find this person in the vast sea of people?"
Mencius suddenly took a few steps back, "Wait, you asked me to take care of it, do you mean I can't find this person?" ”
Lu Xingchen looked at her seriously, shook his head, and took a step towards her quietly, "Far away in the sky, close in front of you!" ”
Mencius completely relieved himself now, "I said that you don't have to be responsible, this incident is an accident, and I am to blame!" ”
Lu Xingchen's eyes showed helplessness, but his words were serious, "Girl, don't think of me so badly, let alone belittle yourself, just like you said, 'It's an accident', unexpected things, we can't predict it at all, let's just say now, forget everything, and only see me as an ordinary man!" ”
The two of them were in a stalemate for a while, and suddenly, Mencius squatted on the ground and cried out, this cry was accumulated by her from this morning, there were grievances, chagrins, and helplessness...
Lu Xingchen was a little at a loss and a little distressed, he silently squatted down and patted her back.
"You... You don't... Persuade me, I... Already... Hold back... One day and one night, and... At... You guys... Front... Forced smile, huh... I... It's not... Deliberately... Woo woo... Never... No... So... It's hard to feel good! ”
"I'm not going to persuade you, there's no one here but me, it's a good place to vent." He said with a slight smile, then took his wallet out of his pocket, pulled out a photo from his wallet and handed it to her, "Remember this picture?" The first time we saw you as a child, we took a group photo. ”
Mencius stopped crying and took the photo in disbelief, "Why do you still keep it?" ”
Lu Xingchen pretended to be serious and said, "I'm afraid that you won't recognize me when you grow up, so I can keep it as evidence of recognition." ”
"What kind of evidence, it's obviously a mockery that I didn't recognize you in West Lake Park," Mencius suddenly had an epiphany after speaking, "Did you recognize me in West Lake Park a long time ago?" ”
Lu Xingchen avoided her questioning eyes with a little weakness, took out the eggplant earrings from his pocket and put them on her hand, then got up and walked back.
Mencius looked at the stud earrings in his palm that shone in the sun, and couldn't help but blush.
The night was late, but Mencius couldn't sleep, the light in the room was very dim, she looked at the skylight above her head with clear eyes, the night sky outside the skylight was starry, but she didn't want to appreciate it, Lu Xingchen's figure always appeared in her mind, what he said in the field.
Thinking about it, she was inexplicably irritable, and after a while covering the quilt and lifting the quilt again, she had to get up from the bed, walk to the kitchen, and pour a glass of boiled water.
When passing by Meng Ma and Meng Dad's room, she opened the door lightly, and through the crack in the door, she saw Meng Ma and Meng Dad's sleeping soundly, smiled a little complicated, and then gently closed the door.
The next day, Mencius got up early in the morning, went out to buy breakfast, and began to do housework again.
At this time, Meng's father and Meng's mother also woke up, and when they saw Mencius mopping the floor in the living room, they couldn't help but be surprised, and said in unison, "The sun is coming out in the west!" ”
