Chapter 192: The Power of Loved Ones
It sounds like her voice is quite energetic.
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Qin put the phone on the table in the living room again.
"Young grandma, I put my phone on the big table outside."
"Okay, okay, I'll take it when I go out."
Xiao Qin retired like this and returned to his cozy little room, Xiao Qin was still a little excited.
Because I have been in the suburban villa for so long, I don't know the family of the young master and grandmother very well, and I know an old man Lu, because he is the big guy who is in charge of whether the owner has money or not, and the rest is not clear.
Xiao Qin is not very familiar with Lu Chen's parents and stable parents.
This time, I was fortunate to receive a call from the young grandmother's mother, and I was a little excited.
After taking a shower safely, he picked up the mobile phone on the table in the restaurant, and glanced at it, it was the same unfamiliar number that made three calls to himself, and the last one was received by Xiao Qin.
An Wen has actually not been in contact with his mother for a long time, since An Wen went to college and came out to study, there is basically very little contact with his family, and even the money he earned when he first went to college was earned by his own part-time job.
Looking back on the time when I studied design, it was really poignant and inspiring.
At that time, An Wen, not like her classmates, were all in the family car, sent to the school by parents or drivers, at that time An Wen was an ordinary college student, after getting off the train, asked a lot of people and finally found the address of the school, and then used the public phone, called home, and reported that it was safe.
After that, An Wen began to live independently at his own university.
When other classmates were addicted to games and dating to fall in love, An Wen worked in the small restaurants around the campus to brush dishes, and when other students were drunk and fascinated and lingered in major entertainment venues, An Wen seized his spare time to read and study in the library.
Under such hard study, the scholarship or something has a stable every year, but with the scholarship in the school, it is not enough to pay for the study and living expenses of a year, so you can only make good use of all your time to achieve a balance between studying, living and earning money.
I replied to the unfamiliar phone number.
“……”
An Wen didn't speak at the beginning, but the woman on the other end of the phone opened her mouth first, and she felt like crying when she heard the sound of An Wen.
The years are a pig-killing knife, although my mother has tried her best to hide the tiredness of her voice, but she still makes An Wen hear the vicissitudes of life as soon as she hears it.
After graduating from high school, I basically haven't been in touch with my family, it's not that I don't want to contact, sometimes, in the dead of night, I think of my mother and want to call her, but when I call the phone at home safely, the voice is not my mother's voice, it's a strange man's voice, I said I want to find this lady, and people will tell her that the family doesn't live here anymore, and don't call this phone in the future.
Stabilizing yourself is a shock, what?
My parents moved, I didn't know, if I hadn't called them when I remembered them, I didn't even know the news of their move, my daughter is really ......
I don't know if they did it intentionally or unintentionally, if it was unintentional, after An Wen, he was waiting for an unfamiliar number to call himself again, if it was intentional, An Wen didn't want to say anything, in that home, in fact, except for his mother who could bring a little warmth to himself, he never felt a little fatherly love from that stepfather.
"Hey, is it safe? I'm a mother. ”
"We haven't been in touch for a long time."
"yes, steady, we haven't seen each other in years."
An Wen doesn't want to listen to her reminiscing about the past, because her childhood, her adolescence, did not leave a good impression, if it weren't for her hard work, trying to jump out of that kind of life, she might be an ordinary junior high school graduate, under the arrangement of the family, casually married a mediocre person, spent her life in a mess, where can you get in touch with these lives outside, the excitement and beauty of these worlds outside.
"Tell me what's going on."
There was an obvious pause on the other end of the phone, and I didn't expect An Wen to be such an attitude.
"Are you still blaming Mom?" There was some excitement in his tone.
"It's not weird, it's been so many years, what are you looking for me?"
"I heard you're married."
"Yes."
An Wen just thought that if the woman on the other end of the phone came to ask him for money, what kind of mood he should be in and how he should answer, and An Wen had already thought about all these questions.
"I was also forced to do it back then, I was beaten up by your stepfather when I drank alcohol, how could I let you suffer like this, so I simply cut off contact with you."
An Wen's hand holding the phone trembled slightly, he had thought about many possibilities, he was in a hurry to move, and he thought he would call himself later, but no, if it was deliberate, after that, it was like a duckweed without roots, floating with the water.
Because I don't have a home at all, and I don't have a family.
Thinking of his family, An Ran thought of An Ran.
own sister.
It is not so much that An Ran is An Wen's sister, but that An Ran is his creditor.
's mother was pregnant with the Shu family's child before marrying her stepfather, and everyone knows about this family, and after that, she gave birth to a little girl with her stepfather, who is now stable.
He took the name Enron.
An Ran has been the pearl of the family since birth, although his stepfather would lose control and beat An Wen and his mother when he was drunk, but he never beat An Ran.
The food and clothing at home also provided the best conditions for Enron.
Of course, such conditions are not very good, in the presence of a gambler father, where can the family's economic conditions be better?
But under such living conditions, Enron's treatment is definitely much better than Anron's.
This point will be obvious during the Chinese New Year every year, Enron will buy several sets of new clothes every year, so what about Anron? I have been wearing my old clothes for three or four years in a row, and I bought them when my mother bought them at a discount in the mall, and there is nothing that does not fit.
"Don't talk about that, I don't want to mention the old past, what are you looking for me this time."
An Wen is ready to refuse to give money.
"Mom's health has not been good recently, and she has been found to have asthma, I hope to see you, it's nothing, I just miss you."
It was obviously a very simple sentence in the mother-daughter conversation, and the eyes were a little moist when she was stable but moved, but she held back her tears and took a gentle breath.
"I've been busy lately."
"Ah...... If you're really busy with work, it's okay if you don't come back, but you need to pay more attention to your body, do you hear? Work is important, and so is the body. I forgot to tell you, I separated from your uncle, I endured him for so many years, but I still didn't hold back, I feel that it is too tiring to live with him, it is better to live alone. ”
An Wen was a little shocked, always thinking that his mother was still living in such a miserable situation.
"It's good to be separated."
"Yes, even when I'm alone, I can't help but think about my daughter."
It is not explicitly stated, this daughter is meant to be stable.
An An's heart moved, his mother has indeed been thinking about herself, although she didn't tell herself about the move before, but this can't be completely blamed on her mother.
An Wen hesitated again and again, and at the end of the phone call with her, he still said, "I'm very busy this week, and I'll go back if I have time on the weekend." ”
"Really?"
In just three words, you can hear the joy in it.
It's like injecting a little spice into my mother's peaceful life and bringing a little color.
"Really."
"Then you have to bring your uncle back to me this time."
"Huh?" An Wen heard that his mother wanted to see Lu Chen, and he hesitated for a while, because he was not sure about Lu Chen's itinerary, even if he had time, An Wen didn't know if he would like to go back to his hometown with him.
"Well, I'm not sure now, he's also quite busy, I'll ask when he comes back, if it's convenient, the two of us will go back together, if he doesn't have time to spare, I'll go back first, and he'll bring it back next time he has a chance."
"Good, good."
An's mother heard that no matter what the situation was, she could let herself see her daughter, so she didn't care so much about her son-in-law.
"Let's talk about it first, when will you come back for the weekend, I'm going to buy something you like first."
People's tastes change with the passage of time, and An Wen didn't say this fact at this moment, because he had just contacted his mother, and he didn't want the crack of time to gradually grow between the two.
"It's nothing, don't be too busy, just stir-fry two dishes."
"Okay, just fry a few dishes you like to eat, what about the time?"
"I'm almost, let's go back on Saturday morning."
"Okay, then I'll wait for you at home then, the address has changed, and I'll send it to your phone later."
"Good. If that's fine, I'll hang up first. ”
"Okay, okay."
After hanging up the phone, I suddenly felt that there was a feeling that was not very real. The two of them were already like strangers ten minutes ago, but in just ten minutes, there was a very intimate feeling, maybe this was the power of relatives, a power that could not be explained.
