Chapter 28: Negotiation and Compromise
The arrival of Lan Tian's parents made Yun Duo feel extremely worried, and she agreed to the second elder to squeeze in the rental house with them, and she had compromised to the extreme. After all, it was the first time they had formally gotten along, and Yun Duo was careful for fear that he would say the wrong thing and do the wrong thing. Even so, it is still impossible to avoid contradictions, at the dinner table, the blue sky mother mercilessly gave the clouds "dismount".
Looking at Lan Tian's mother's angry face, Yun Duo whispered: "Auntie, you misunderstood, I mean that your second elder will stay for a few days, I will arrange it, I really don't have the idea of driving you away." Lan Tian's father echoed casually: "Old woman, other people's daughters are kind enough to ask, what do you think you are angry about." Let's eat first, the dishes are cold......" Lan Tian sat awkwardly on the side, he didn't know which side to talk to, he lowered his head and rubbed his hands helplessly, secretly expecting things to ease up in his heart.
"Tian'er, you go out with me and your father, this meal is suffocating, and my stomach is uncomfortable." Lan Tian's mother pushed the dishes and chopsticks, got up and walked to the door. Lan Tian looked at the clouds helplessly, and the clouds avoided his gaze and cleaned up the leftovers on the table alone. Lan Tian's father turned his head and said, "Girl, you come with us, it's rare for the family to get together." Before Yun Duo could reply, Lan Tian's mother scolded loudly: "Dead old man, I want to talk to my son alone, what kind of mess are you making, if you want to go, stay by yourself!" ”
Dad Lan Tian has always been cowardly, and for decades, in front of his wife, he didn't even dare to pant loudly. In this situation, he didn't say much, Lan Tian gently shook the hand of the clouds, and walked out of the house with his parents. When Yun Duo was the only one left in the room, she could no longer control the depression in her heart, and tears crackled like beads with broken threads falling on the sink. She didn't know what she had done wrong, which made Lantian Mom so difficult for herself. Several times, she tried to call her parents, but she was afraid that they would be worried, so she thought about it and gave up.
On the other side, Lan Tian walked with his parents in the community, and his mother changed her angry appearance in the rental house and asked with concern: "Tian'er, is it a lot of work pressure?" You see you're thin again. Lan Tian shook his head, he was full of resentment towards his mother, but he didn't dare to express it directly, so he could only resist with silence. The mother didn't seem to notice his emotions, and Gu Zi said: "I don't think the girl in the clouds is good, she is squeamish, and she usually bullies you a lot." ”
Lan Tian's father smiled and said: "I think that girl is good, quiet and polite, and a person who lives a good life..." Will you be able to see if you will live? You don't want to save face, today you are going to rebel! Dad Lan Tian waved his hand again and again, lowered his head, and didn't dare to say a word again.
Lan Tian listened to the conversation between the two, and his heart was irritable. He thought for a moment and said, "Mom, what do you dislike about Yunduo, can I let her change her career?" The mother made a fuss and said, "Look at your child, does it matter who your mother likes and dislikes?" Can't you find the right person for you, and you will be happy in the future? ”
Lan Tian said helplessly: "I think the clouds are very good, they suit me very well, didn't you also acquiesce before eating?" Lantian Mom smiled and said, "Son, Mom doesn't disagree, it's just that there is a more suitable girl who wants you to meet." Na, your Aunt Wang's daughter works abroad, and her appearance and personality are outstanding, and they have four or five houses in their family alone. If you go back to your hometown, your mother will talk to her and find you a stable job. What do you think? ”
Lan Tian snorted contemptuously, growing so big, he confronted his mother head-on for the first time: "Mom, I know what kind of lover I need, I don't like it if you think it's appropriate." If I have such a divorced marriage with you and my father, I'd rather not, please, is it okay to respect my choice? ”
Lantian Ma said angrily: "See, I'll say that this girl Yunduo has brought our family to the sky." How well-behaved he used to be, now he dares to talk to me like this, alas, this attitude before he got married, I see, we don't have a good life in the future! ”
Lan Tiangu walked forward, listening to his mother's chatter behind him, his heart was in turmoil. He originally thought that he would be able to change everything and have his ideal life again after leaving his childhood environment. Now it seems that the original idea was still too naïve, and it will take a long time to hold the hand of his beloved girl and walk together openly. I don't know if Yun Duo can accept such parents, he absentmindedly kicked the stones on the road, extremely depressed.
Back home, the clouds had already packed everything up. She said with a smile: "Uncle and aunt, I have a new futon in the bedroom. Your second elder is tired for a day, so rest early. Lan Tian's father said embarrassedly: "Girl, thank you for your hard work." So where are you and Tian'er staying tonight? Yun Duo replied with a smile: "It's okay uncle, I'll just squeeze on the sofa with Lan Tian." You and your aunt can tell us at any time if you have something, we are all a family, don't be polite. ”
Lan Tian's mother squinted at the clouds, swallowed the melon seeds, and saw that the ground that had just been neat was instantly covered with melon seed skins. She said in a weird way: "At this time, I'm afraid it's too early to talk about a family. You don't need to say a bunch of polite words, my ears are calloused—" she clapped her hands and yawned as she walked to the bedroom.
Lan Tian's father looked at the clouds apologetically, he was wooden by nature, and he really couldn't say more comforting words in the face of his wife's rude words and deeds. He waved his hand at the clouds, his helplessness overflowing, and then he also walked into the bedroom. Lan Tian swept the melon seed skin on the ground and said softly: "Daughter-in-law, I have tired you today." I'll make sure to find time to talk to my mom, she's too much. ”
Yun Duo chuckled lightly and asked lightly, "Do you love me?" Lan Tian stopped the movement in his hand, looked at the clouds with a firm look and replied: "Love, love very much." You're the girl I've thought of in my life. The clouds paused, and then stepped forward and hugged the blue sky tightly. She said emotionally, "As long as we love each other, that's enough." As for the other problems, we will solve them little by little, and there will always be a day when the clouds will be cleared. ”
In the middle of the night, listening to the snoring of the blue sky, the clouds could not sleep for a long time. The small space made her unable to turn over or move, and in order to make Lan Tian sleep more comfortably, her whole person was almost suspended on the outside of the sofa. Looking back on the past with the blue sky, along the way, stumbling, and wanting to give up countless times, after all, I can't resist the sentence "I love you". She kissed Lan Tian's forehead, guarding her own small happiness.
The next day, the four of them came to Xidan Shopping Mall, Lantian Mom saw that she couldn't move her son, so she ended the trip ahead of schedule, and before leaving, she planned to bring some gifts to relatives and friends. Faced with a dazzling array of goods, Lantian Ma was dazzled, she complained about the high price, and kept filling things into the bag. Yun Duo is like a loyal entourage, and every time Lan Tian's mother arrives at a stall, she is ready to pay.
When I arrived at the train station, while Lantian Mom went to the bathroom, Lantian Dad took out a stack of banknotes from his trouser pocket tremblingly, and he stuffed it into Yunduo's hand without saying anything: "Girl, I've tired you in the past two days, and my uncle has no other skills, so I secretly saved some private money, and you can buy some delicious food yourself." Uncle just has a wish, I hope you are well..."
Looking at Lan Tian's father's old face, which had already been destroyed by the years, Yun Duo was speechless for a while. Looking at the figure of the two gradually moving away, Yun Duo thought of his parents, no matter what, you have to try to live a good life in the moment, because in the distance, your favorite relatives are waiting for you to come home...
