Chapter Twenty-Four: Eavesdropping, Surviving in the Cracks
has always tried his best to commend the "five generations in the same house", which shows the difficulty of actually living together; Desperately persuading filial piety also shows the lack of filial piety in fact. And the reason for this is that they are all bent on advocating hypocritical morality and despising true human feelings. ——[Republic of China] Lu Xun "How Do We Be Fathers Now"
I answered the phone and didn't know what to say for a while, when it came over the phone, "Hey, hey?" Feed! You see, it's silent. It was grandma's voice, and then there was silence for a moment, probably because she thought the phone was broken, and asked her aunt to come and take a look. Sure enough, after a while, my aunt's voice came: "Hey, Wei Zhenpeng? "Auntie, they still don't know about my name change, but they still call me the familiar and unfamiliar name I used to have." Well, auntie, it's me. "I came back to my senses and hurriedly responded." You little conscienceless, huh? Don't say come back to see our girls, we can't wait, we can't wait, we can't wait, we can only come to you! After my mother handed me the phone, she worriedly picked up the landline and "tapped".
This kind of phone will have a hollow reverberation once both parties pick it up, like sticking your head into an empty big water tank, I usually find this when I play on the phone, so as soon as my mother picks up the phone, I will be listening to her, although there is nothing to say behind her back, but her behavior still makes me a little awkward.
After hesitating for a moment, he then called his aunt: "I miss you too, you come to me?" Are you coming to my house? "Not really, we don't know where your house is, and your mother told us the phone number before she moved." It turned out that my mother was on the phone with them, but why did I never know? Although I've been staying at school, I still go home every weekend, because my grandmother's house doesn't have a phone, and I don't dare to mention "grandma, aunt" to my father, let alone let him send me back to see them, so I have been pressing in my heart and not mentioning that I want to contact them.
Although I was angry in my heart, I knew that my mother on the other side was still "eavesdropping", so I didn't show a dissatisfied tone, and said to my aunt: "Oh, I go to a closed school, and I usually don't go home when I live in school, I miss you, but I can't go back to see you." My aunt doesn't seem to be able to forgive me so simply: "Yes, you're a busy person, you don't have time to come and see us, isn't this that we're free, we want to go to Q City to find you, your grandma is going to come over to grab the phone, don't nag first, let your grandma answer the phone, she thinks about you all (1), talk to her." ”
After speaking, there was silence again, and after squirming: "Peng Peng~ Grandma wants to kill you." Woo woo......" At first, she still spoke with a crying tone, and the old lady actually cried directly. "Milk, don't ......" I wanted to comfort, but somehow, maybe I was infected, or maybe I missed it so much, or maybe I was too tired to pretend to be a "good boy", and I even cried with the old lady, and we were old and young.
Probably distressed by the sky-high cost of two yuan a minute on the public phone, my aunt snatched the phone: "Okay, okay, don't cry, Peng Peng, tell you about business, you are also on vacation now, your aunt is about to give birth, my aunt is thinking about it, you discuss with your mother and Xiao Liu to discuss tomorrow we will take you to County B to see your aunt?" I gradually lowered my voice and wiped my tears: "Well, I'll ask." Naturally, I didn't need to ask, what they said my mother heard it really well, but my aunt hurriedly instructed: "Don't cry and go, it seems that you have been wronged by others and hugged us (2)." Thinking of the other phone, my mother also listened to these words, and I didn't feel that I was being shouted secrets in my ear by others.
I walked out of the room with the phone, and made a questioning expression at my mother, who held the phone in one hand and swung it down with the other, as if to ask me to come down, she couldn't make a sound, for fear of being heard by my aunt. I nodded and went back to the house. "My mom it (3)." The old lady on the other end of the phone was ecstatic: "Jiang Hongyan is quite happy, I think she can't agree easily." "My aunt, you can say bad things lightly, you are now in front of people, I quickly pretended to cough twice, trying to cover up.
The old aunt laughed proudly, and then arranged: "Then we will go to Q City as a big guest early tomorrow morning, doesn't Xiao Liu have a car, let him send you, and we will wait for you at the train station." "My aunt naturally doesn't know the undercurrent where I am, my mother doesn't say that I know, I can't let my father send me, we have just had a good relationship, if this makes him have something in his heart, I'm afraid I and my mother are not happy, I think in my heart, but I promised.
"That's okay, my aunt won't say much, the phone is very expensive, and I have to coax your milk." Hang up, we'll be waiting for you at the train station at 9 o'clock tomorrow. I was about to go out and put the phone back in the charging dock, but my mother made a shushing gesture, stopped me back into the house, and closed the door: "Don't you ......" "Can't let my dad know, right, I understand." Although I robbed her of everything, my mother seemed very satisfied: "Well, you know, it's okay, tomorrow my mother said to send you to your third aunt to study, you get to the station and call your mother, can you do it yourself?" Seeing me nodding, my mother told me to go to bed early and take the phone in my hand before daring to go out of the house.
The next day, my mother took me to breakfast, called a taxi, and spent a huge sum of 80 yuan to reach a consensus with the driver, the train station is in District X, which is the "down the mountain" I mentioned earlier. Correspondingly, our T area is "on the mountain". The distance to the station is farther than to my grandmother's house, and before closing, my mother begged the driver to deliver me to the place. I told her to put my heart in my stomach again and again, but she didn't listen until she heard the driver's assurance.
The car was moving, I was sitting in the passenger seat, and I could see from the rearview mirror that my mother was always looking at this side, until she was getting farther and farther away, and her figure was slowly shrinking and not moving, so I shouldn't say anything about our mother-son relationship. Sometimes her concern is so sincere, whether it is food, clothing, housing or learning to make friends, she is very caring, which makes me really like her heart. But sometimes I am always harsh because of small things, and even punches and kicks are not excessive, for example, when I first came to the city, I like to chirp when I eat, and I am often a picky eater, and I will be taught a lesson when I am rarely popular, and scold me for gnawing pig food. There are too many of these little things to mention, and I don't know which side of my mother really feels about me. Although it's a biological mother.,But sometimes it's not as comfortable in front of her as her father.。。
