Chapter 9 backfired
After a week, I took the time to help the family to complete the repair of the living room, the house was filled with the smell of re-brushing the pulp, and the house that I had lived in for six or seven years was able to take on a new look, because the smell in the house was harmful to the body and had to open the windows from time to time to ventilate, the parents had to temporarily move out and find a hotel near the community to live, and the next day after settling down was Saturday, the parents planned to see Li Mingxuan's day, originally they were going to cook a few specialty dishes at home to entertain Li Mingxuan, but also because the house had just been renovated, I also heard that Li Mingxuan's family background, although the conditions of my family are more than enough, but even this is not half of his family, but it can't lose its dignity, so I had to arrange this first meeting outside and find a medium-grade hotel.
For this meeting, Li Mingxuan also privately prepared a gift for my parents in advance behind my back, and when I took it out and handed it to them that day, I knew that it must be expensive, "Uncle and aunt, I prepared some small gifts according to my own ideas when we met for the first time, I hope you can like it." ”
There is no pattern on the packaging bag made of kraft paper, only printed with the word mark composed of English letters and a unique logo on behalf of this brand, and the parents look at the logo that they have never seen in their lives and even unheard of and do not know how to spell the brand name, "This makes us embarrassed to accept it." The atmosphere at this time was obviously a little awkward in the words of the parents.
"Uncle and aunt, don't be polite to me, I'm Mao Mao's boyfriend now, and I should meet for the first time." In my impression, Li Mingxuan has always been a person who is very good at having a good relationship with others, he can talk and do things, as long as he wants to get close to the person, he is willing to say that there is no failure in communication, even if it is a friend of wine and meat, when they are together, they will give him enough face, if their academic performance is better, it is a waste of talent not to be a diplomat.
While eating and chatting, my father and Li Mingxuan drank some wine and started to walk in Kan Dashan, looking very close to each other, but my mother rarely spoke at the dinner table, and kept putting vegetables on the plate in front of the three of us, "Don't patronize and drink, eat some food, save your stomach." "Father's stomach is not good, often stomach pain is also the mother is most worried, afraid that my father in the unit canteen will not eat well will cause gastrointestinal discomfort so I collected a lot of stomach recipes, regardless of spring, summer, autumn and winter will go to the market after work the day before to select ingredients, the next day early to catch up with my father before the door to prepare the meal and then put it into the insulated lunch box for him to bring, I remember that my father said that meeting my mother is the greatest luck in his life, I envy the pure feelings between parents, is the kind of based on love, Over time, a lot of indelible family affection has been added, why don't you want me and Li Mingxuan to be like this.
At the end of the meal, his father walked out of the door of the hotel with his arms around Li Mingxuan's neck with the strength of the wine, because Li Mingxuan couldn't drive because he had drunk alcohol, so he called a friend.
I know this friend who came to drive for Li Mingxuan, Shang Xuan, the iron buddy who had the best relationship with Li Mingxuan in his high school class, and the two of them look a little similar, from the size of the body to the eyebrows and eyes, if you don't carefully distinguish between them, it's really easy to make a mistake, and they will always be mistaken for twin brothers by people they don't know.
Li Mingxuan, who was sitting in the passenger seat along the way, did not speak, the window was narrowly opened, and he was seen from the rearview mirror that he was leaning his head tightly against the seat, closing his eyes and blowing the wind through the window, letting the wind blow the hair blocking his forehead, tilting his head from time to time, opening his eyes slightly to see where the car was going, and then returning to his previous posture.
Until the car stopped in front of the hotel where my parents lived recently, I said to Li Mingxuan before dinner, and I wanted to go back to the bar with him to play all night after sending my parents back to the place where they lived, but the plan couldn't keep up with the changes.
When Li Mingxuan and Shang Xuan were leaving, his father just pushed the door of the hotel open and then closed it again, as if he had forgotten something to explain for a while, he looked at the gift given by Li Mingxuan in his hand again, turned around and stopped him: "Young man, don't have any more dealings with my family in the future, I don't think you are suitable." ”
I was stunned when I heard my father's words, and the next second I shouted to my father uncontrollably: "Dad, what are you talking about?" Did you drink too much and become confused, didn't you get along with Ming Xuan when you were eating just now? Drunken madness again? ”
"Mao, how can I talk to your father! Nothing big or small. "My mother came up and pulled my arm.
I glanced at my mother and shook off her hand, my nose suddenly burst with pantothenic acid, and I didn't dare to blink because of the tears that filled my eyes, for fear that tears would gush out of nowhere, "Mom, what's wrong with my dad?" It was fine just now, why is it ...... Where are we not suitable? The voice still couldn't help but tremble, the late autumn night is always accompanied by a cold wind, always biting cold.
"Mao Mao and Mingxuan, listen to me, which of us parents doesn't want their children to live well, I know that you are just getting along with each other now, and we don't have any opinions, but you are not young anymore, after all, one day you are going to talk about marriage, if you are really lucky enough to reach the age of starting a family, when it comes to marriage, in the end, you still pay attention to the right family, have you ever thought about it? It's really that far, I found that our two families are far apart, and there is a conflict, and it will hurt not only the two of you at that time, but also the two families, so that if there is no result, it is better to let go earlier and the long pain is better than the short pain. "My father said a lot, but I never listened.
"Dad, how do you know that we will definitely have a bad result when the time comes, why do you use your ideas to sway us, you are too domineering, and your kind of thinking has long been outdated." My emotions are even more emotional.
My mother waved and slapped me in the face, this was the first time my mother hit me, I covered my face and gritted my teeth and tears couldn't stop flowing, my hand floating on my face could clearly feel the hot heat and pain after the slap, my mother hugged me and cried: "I'm sorry, Mom shouldn't have beaten you, but you really shouldn't talk back to your father, we are also for your good." ”
I struggled to break free of my mother's arms and walked in front of Li Mingxuan, I didn't know what to say for a while, I just stared at him in front of me who had said that he would always be with me, silent with each other, Shang Xuan opened his mouth to break the atmosphere condensed between us, "Mao Mao, you go back with your uncle and aunt first, talk to them well, and talk about it, maybe they won't object?" Let's go first, there's still something waiting for us to deal with at the bar, let's go, it's not early, don't freeze if it's cold. Don't worry, Li Mingxuan won't want you. Listening to Shang Xuan's words, Li Mingxuan's eyes had a doubt that I couldn't see through, he glanced at Shang Xuan, Shang Xuan also pinched Li Mingxuan's arm in turn, I didn't understand what their actions meant, and I didn't hear Li Mingxuan say a word, or opened the car door and sat in, leaving me in place to listen to the sound of the engine running when the car was started, got up and left, and gradually disappeared from sight in the dark night.
"Alright, everyone is gone, let's go into the house too." My mother tried to put her arm around my shoulder, but I twisted and dodged away, and I heard my mother sob.
I was the first to enter the room and didn't turn on the light, through a faint light from the window came in to the bed, directly fell on the bed, buried myself in the quilt, my parents sat next to me for a while to see that I didn't speak, got up and lit the light in the room, my father stretched out his hand and lifted the quilt that I covered my head, and said in a low tone: "Mao Mao, your mother and I are both from here, and the emotional matter is not as simple as you imagined, we can't catch up with the conditions of his family, So we don't want you to be angry at someone's house one day! Besides, we always feel that Li Mingxuan is not as easy to deal with as he seems on the surface. ”
I sat up angrily: "Then don't you still have a good time drinking with him?" Hypocrisy, I don't have to worry about my business in the future, it's okay, go to sleep! I was sleepy and slept first. "I don't know what kind of mood I will have to face my parents next, so I might as well choose to be silent, lie down again and turn over, turn my face against the wall, close my eyes and say nothing.
"Xiao Maomao, you get up for me, do you think we will hurt you? Why don't you listen to persuasion, it's not small, have you considered the consequences before doing anything? Don't let yourself regret it at the end! The more I grow up, the more ignorant I become. "Mother was suddenly impatient.
I don't understand what happened to my parents today, just saw Li Mingxuan this time, the two of them began to strongly oppose us being together, no matter how to describe to them Li Mingxuan's good to me during this period of time, it was useless, the communication between me and my parents changed from calm at the beginning to a fierce quarrel, they were still determined not to let me associate with Li Mingxuan again, I took out the mobile phone in my pocket and prepared to call Li Mingxuan in the hope that he could come and take me away, at this time my parents did not react, Just watched me find Li Mingxuan's number and dialed it, and after the ringtone rang for a while, there was a prompt tone: "The user you dialed is on the phone, please dial again later." Said that he saw the caller ID but pressed the hang up button, and then dialed it again and was also hung up, until I wanted to dial the number for the third time with red circles in my eyes, my mother finally couldn't sit still, wiped her tears and stood up and grabbed the phone, while I lowered my head, my hands on my knees and always maintained the posture of holding the phone, and tears fell in pairs in the empty palm.
"Silly boy, it's time to wake up, you can already explain everything if he doesn't answer the phone, stop deceiving yourself." My mother knelt down, clasped my hands, and looked at me with pleading eyes.
"Why didn't he answer the phone, don't you know? It's good, who of you wouldn't resist making such a fuss? Anyway, I just want to be with Li Mingxuan, and none of you can stop me. My eyes widened, since my parents made it clear that they wanted to break us up, then I simply didn't do anything, and directly made up a lie that even I thought was excessive: "Let me tell you the truth, I have done everything that should and shouldn't be done in the month that I have been with Li Mingxuan." I exhaled deeply, but I could easily tell from my parents' expressions that they were disappointed in me.
"Xiao Maomao, you ......" my father couldn't get angry, raised his slap to me, saw my father's movements, I closed my eyes and was ready to be slapped in this way, but I heard a "snap", when I opened my eyes, I saw him slap on his face, and then "bang" and sat on the bed and cried bitterly, tears crossed his cheeks and left shallow tears, I knew that these words would completely break their hearts.
Everything in front of me also makes my heart ache, after all, it is my parents who have raised me for more than ten years, but I can't help but think about Li Mingxuan's heart, such a fascinated heart finally prompted me to leave behind them without hesitation and rush out of the door with tears, stopped a taxi and reported to the driver the location of the bar run by Li Mingxuan, my mother chased out and knocked on the side window, in this case, the driver asked with some hesitation if I wanted to go, I lowered my head very low and couldn't help but look out the window, When nothing happened, I just whispered: "Let's go", the taxi slowly drove away, even though the car started, I could still hear my mother chasing the car while calling my name to let me go back, after the car was speeding up for a distance, I turned my head and saw the mother who had been thrown far away leaning on my father's chest, and the father hugged my mother tightly, and the two of them stood there looking at the direction of the car.
The taxi driver, a man who looked to be in his thirties, sighed: "Look at you are arguing with your family like this, but there is never an insoluble conflict between parents and children, so go home early if you figure it out, don't let them worry about it day and night." "I didn't talk to him on the subject.
At half past ten o'clock in the night of autumn, there is a cold wind, there are fewer vehicles coming and going on the road, and the water is no longer like the daytime, and the city without traffic has become extraordinarily empty and less energetic, the car seems to have entered a vacuum state, depressed quiet, and sometimes the sand particles brought up by the cold wind beat on the car window, and the crackling sound is particularly harsh, maybe no one really likes this kind of suffocating atmosphere, the driver turned on the car radio, and the emotional radio was playing the song on demand from the audience at night - Jay Chou's " Armageddon.
"Tired or not, sleepless, alone and unsnuggled together, the darker it gets, the dream is violated, who will comfort ......"
