Chu Ying took a deep breath, as a person in the family who had to maintain balance, did they know how hard she was?

"I called you here today because I want to have a meal alone, and it's just for our family." Chu Ying said, "So even if it's for me today, can you have a good meal?" Don't let me eat this meal and still have indigestion. ”

"I haven't been back for nearly 20 years, and I really don't want to continue to see this kind of bad scene, so no matter what conflicts you have in the past, today, for my sake, the three of us have a good meal."

She could fully predict how depressing the atmosphere at the dinner table would be if there was no Ye Luo at home, and it was also possible that Chu Ran would not go home at all.

Chu Ran's attitude has always been plain and bland, and there has been no obvious change.

It was Chu Huaiguang, who seemed to have a stomach full of things to say, but after listening to Chu Ying's words, he still held back all of them.

The meal was extraordinarily silent.

Chu Ying was the first to put down the dishes and chopsticks, waiting for Chu Huaiguang and Chu Ran to finish eating.

"You're all full, aren't you?"

Chu Ying nodded: "Okay, then I'm going to talk about the real purpose of calling you out today." ”

Chu Ran raised her eyebrows, her purpose couldn't be clearer than that was to make him have a relationship with Chu Huaiguang, but at present, it seems that Chu Ying has other purposes?

"What I'm going to talk about today is about my sister-in-law."

Chu Ying threw out a sentence gently, but for the father and son, it was no less powerful than a bomb.

Chu Ran frowned even more, and when he was about to speak, Chu Ying raised his palm to stop them from continuing.

"I have completely expected your reaction, and I also know that this matter has always been a minefield between you that cannot be touched, and it is also the source of misunderstanding between you, but if this problem is not brought up and rotten in your hearts, it will never get better, and it will even be worse, so don't say any of you today, let me talk about it."

"Sister-in-law is a mother to Chu Ran and a wife to eldest brother, but can you say that you know her well enough?"

When Chu's mother left, Chu Ran was just a child, and what she saw was only her side as a mother, and the mother was always gentle, kind, harmless and full of positive images when facing her children.

Not to mention that they didn't spend much time with each other, so it was impossible to say how well Chu Ran knew.

And Chu Huaiguang, as a husband, does not have much communication with his wife, and he does not spend much time together.

He is not a romantic and warm person, he always regards his career as more important than his family, and he can even sacrifice his family for his career when necessary, which is also a point that Chu Ran has been contradicting Chu Huaiguang for so many years.

The cognition and logic between them are at odds, and if two people like this sit down and talk, it will explode in less than three minutes.

So Chu Ying chose to be a middleman.

And the better one is Chu Ying's identity.

Chu Huaiguang's beloved sister, Chu Ran's respected aunt, has a lot of deterrent power on both parties.

Chu Ying talked about a taboo topic between the two, but because this person was Chu Ying, there was a little less angry thought.

"I'll never know what she's thinking, and I'll admit I'm not a passing husband, but what kind of role do you play in that?"

Chu Ying hadn't come back for decades, and for such a long time, Chu Huaiguang even doubted that she could remember Chu Ran's mother's appearance.

When Chu Ying said this topic from Chu Ying's mouth, Chu Huaiguang felt a little weird.

"Don't you know that there is a word in this world called netizen? Although I haven't met my sister-in-law a few times, we are netizens with a very good relationship, and I definitely know more about my sister-in-law than you think. ”

Chu Ying rolled her eyes.

At that time, communication was not as developed as it is now, but making friends through the Internet was a very simple thing.

It was also by chance that she met Chu Ran's mother.

"So I definitely have a say in that."

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, what I'm going to say now is probably what you didn't know before, wife, mother."

"People may play many roles in their lives, for Chu Ran, the sister-in-law is a gentle mother, and for the eldest brother, maybe he doesn't care who his wife is, as long as he has a wife, but the sister-in-law is also a person, but all people will have two sides or even multiple sides, the sister-in-law also has her own dreams, she also had contradictions and even more ideas when she was young, but one of you can't understand at all, and the other is not willing to understand at all."

"That's why you don't know that my sister-in-law actually suffered from depression at an early age."

When Chu Ying said this, the two of them showed shocked expressions at the same time, and Chu Ying secretly complained when she saw it, it was worthy of father and son, and even the reaction was the same when she heard this.

"How is that possible? She had always seemed perfectly normal, not at all like a depressed person. Chu Huaiguang was a little displeased.

Although Chu Ran didn't say it, he seemed to agree with Chu Huaiguang's words, but he was also silently searching for his own memories, trying to see the different mother in his memories.

But so much time had passed, and the gentle face was almost blurred, and he could hardly even think of what it was like when his mother laughed.

There are only two fixed words, beautiful and gentle.

"So you're not a good husband."

Chu Ying rolled her eyes, she didn't save Chu Huaiguang any face, anyway, there was no worse relationship between their father and son.

Even if she wanted to maintain Chu Huaiguang's image in front of Chu Ran, it would be impossible.

"I know you as a person, you don't care about love and love, in fact, Chu Ran, you really wronged your father at this point, because the sister-in-law put your father down long before she died, and the only person she can't let go of is you,"

Chu Ran was shocked in his heart, for what Chu Ying said.

"Depression is a very special disease, you normal people will not understand how terrible depression is, it is very scary to mentally destroy a person's desire to survive, and people who have not empathized with it will not understand the feeling of being isolated by the whole world."

"My sister-in-law's health is not good all year round, but you probably don't know that she has a dream, that is, to become a skier, and she wants to walk through all the snow and all the snowy mountains."

When Chu Ran heard this, he had a confused image in his mind, and he had the impression that his mother was always pale and very weak when she appeared, and she coughed from time to time, and she looked very weak.

It is precisely because of this that Chu Ran has always been afraid that his mother will leave him.

So much so that when it happened later, Chu Ran would be so numb.

"It can be said that the source of a large number of people's mental problems is physical discomfort, but sister-in-law is not, although she looks very weak on the outside, her heart is very firm, she wants to go out, try again and again, but unfortunately sister-in-law's illness is because of the problem left by premature birth, and later because of Chu Ran, it hindered her dream even more."

Chu Ran's eyelashes trembled, and before he could start thinking nonsense, Chu Ying had already looked at him and said, "I haven't finished my sentence yet, don't think about it, your mother didn't suffer from depression because of you." ”

Chu Ran pursed his lips and did not speak.

"My sister-in-law's body was originally very weak, and when she came later, her body could not support her dream at all, and she only experienced the feeling of going to the snowy mountains once in her life."

"Big brother should know this best."

Chu Huaiguang's face was complicated, of course he remembered that she was very persistent at that time, and broke up with him unhappily because of this matter, in his heart, the wife who has always been gentle is particularly unreasonable in this matter.

"I'm also for her good, her body is already so weak that she can't hold ...... at all"

He quibbled.

"Yes." Chu Ying saw through his weakness and didn't expose him, "I know what you want to say, my sister-in-law is indeed her decision to go, her body is too weak, if she insists on going, it is actually no different from giving her life, but my sister-in-law still insisted on going, I actually had the same reaction as you when I heard about it, I was very opposed, but my sister-in-law, who is usually easy to talk, was like a different person at that time, which was incomprehensible to me at that time." ”

"I don't understand why a person should pay so much for his dreams, isn't it better to live well? Or rather, it's just a dream, it's not worth it at all. ”

"I also asked my sister-in-law if she had to go, but my sister-in-law was very persistent."

"I didn't understand what her insistence was at the time, but now I can understand, although I still can't accept my sister-in-law's extreme approach, but sometimes I am actually very envious of my sister-in-law for being so firm in her dreams, and even desperate to realize her dreams, maybe in the eyes of others this is stupid, but in the eyes of my sister-in-law may be perfect for the last time."

She knew in her heart that even if her body continued to cultivate, it would be impossible for her to return to the state of a normal person, and she also understood that she could only choose one between her dream and peace, and her sister-in-law just chose the former.

"So eldest brother, you don't have to feel that your sister-in-law's death is due to you, you don't have to feel so guilty all the time, and Chu Ran, I know it's hard for you to accept that you are the one who was abandoned, but this is your mother's choice, I hope you can respect your mother's choice."

After Chu Ran listened, he had mixed feelings in his heart.

Chu Huaiguang is not only not a good husband, but also not a good father.

Although he didn't cheat, it was inevitable to act on the spot.
