Chapter 34: Growth

They returned to the county seat, and Wang Mengliang took Shen Yin back to his residence.

"You rest for a while, I'll go grocery shopping first." He took his bag to Shen Yin's room and went to the bathroom.

At this time, Wang Mengliang's mobile phone rang, and when she saw that the caller was his mother, she shouted loudly in the direction of the bathroom: "Auntie's phone." ”

"You answer for me first." He said lightly.

Shen Yin answered the phone, it turned out that the aunt and uncle were already downstairs, they rang the doorbell but there was no response, thinking that Wang Mengliang was out, so they called to ask.

Shen Yin said a few words of greeting to her aunt, then hung up and hurriedly went downstairs to open the door. "Uncle and aunt, come in!" She smiled.

The aunt was very happy to see Shen Yin, held her hand and said, "Shen Yin, you are here, we haven't seen each other for a long time, and your uncle and I miss you very much." ”

Shen Yin took the things from his uncle's hands and invited them to sit on the sofa. "Uncle and aunt, I'll pour tea."

"No, we're not thirsty, we came here this time just to come and see you." The aunt glanced into the room a few times, as if looking for Wang Mengliang's figure.

"It's okay, I'll come when I go, you guys watch TV first." Shen Yin turned on the TV and handed the remote control to her aunt.

She walked into the kitchen and poured four glasses of water.

Wang Mengliang came out of the bathroom and greeted them. "Mom, Dad, why are you here all of a sudden? Don't tell me a word in advance. He sat down on the couch and said with disgust.

"Stinky boy, you haven't been back for two months, and we are not allowed to come to see you suddenly." His father said a little angrily.

"Am I not busy with work? I can't leave for a while. He touched his chin with his hand and whispered.

"Alas, my son can't help my mother when he's older, let's come to see you, not to see ****, we have to make an appointment in advance." His mother joked.

Shen Yin brought the water over and put it on the coffee table.

The aunt took her hand, looked at Wang Mengliang and said, "You have already lived together, when are you going to get married?" We can't wait. ”

Wang Mengliang brought the water to his mother, and changed the topic: "Mom, you must be very thirsty when you come all the way, drink saliva first." ”

Her mother smiled with relief, took a sip of the water.

Wang Mengliang looked at the time, it was almost a little later, "Dad, Mom, let's go out to eat today, I'll clean up first and come out." ”

"Don't bother, we brought some crucian carp and make them at home." His mother politely refused.

"Mom, it's rare for you to come here, listen to me today." Wang Mengliang said lightly. He called a hotel and reserved a seat in advance.

Wang Mengliang went down to drive, and Shen Yin and them walked behind. As soon as they walked downstairs, Shen Yin's mobile phone rang, and they saw that it was a call from Su Yuqian.

She walked a little farther to pick up the phone, and heard Su Yuqian's anxious voice, she said that she was in the hospital now, as if something had happened to her.

Shen Yin walked up to them very apologetically, Wang Mengliang had already driven the car over, "I'm sorry!" Uncle and aunt, I suddenly have something urgent to deal with, so I can't accompany you to dinner. I'll invite you next time. ”

"Child, if you have something to do, go and get busy, don't worry about us." His mother shook her hand and said very kindly.

"Let's give you a ride." His father said beside him, but his eyes were on Wang Mengliang.

"No need, I'll take a taxi, you guys get in the car." Shen Yin waved at them. She walked outside the community, flagged down a taxi and drove to the hospital.

Shen Yin came to the county hospital and called Su Yuqian, knowing that she was in the obstetrics and gynecology area on the second floor. She saw Su Yuqian sitting on the chair at the door in despair, "What's wrong?" Shen Yin sat beside her and asked with concern.

Su Yuqian is five months pregnant, and her belly is already obvious. She wears a light blue long-sleeved dress and an apricot fisherman's hat.

"Shen Yin, I saw my mother in the hospital, she is much older, I really want to see her." She whispered, "I saw my mother go to the ophthalmology department, do you think she is sick?" ”

Shen Yin thought that something was wrong with her body, and she was relieved to see that Su Yuqian was safe and sound. "Xiaoqian, let's say this kind of thing, anyway, sooner or later everyone will know."

"I don't know what to do now." Su Yuqian said sadly.

"Is Aunt Li gone now? Why don't I go and see what the hell is going on, and then you decide whether you want to tell her or not, okay? Shen Yin patted her on the shoulder and said, she often called Su Yuqian's mother 'Aunt Li'.

Su Yuqian nodded approvingly.

Shen Yin came to the ophthalmology clinic and pretended to meet by chance, and saw Su Yuqian's mother greeting: "Aunt Li, why are you here?" ”

Aunt Li turned her head and was surprised to see Shen Yin, "It turned out to be Shen Yin, I haven't seen it for a long time, it's really getting more and more beautiful." ”

"Aunt Li, are you sick?" Shen Yin asked with concern. Although she had seen Aunt Li five months ago, she was indeed much haggard now, and she had gray hair on both sideburns.

Aunt Li smiled: "Recently, I feel a little pain in my eyes, a little blurry vision, and ghosting, so I came over to check it." ”

"Oh, I see." Shen Yin nodded.

"By the way, have you seen Xiaoqian recently, although she often calls, I still miss her very much, I want to meet her, I don't know how she is doing now." Aunt Li said, her eyes were already red.

"Aunt Li, Xiaoqian must be fine, you don't have to worry, you still take care of your body." Shen Yin comforted: "Now it's your turn, I'll go first." She waved goodbye to Aunt Li.

"Well, when I see Xiaoqian in the future, I will persuade her to come back, your uncle and I miss her very much." Aunt Li finally admonished.

"Don't worry, I will."

Shen Yin returned to Su Yuqian's side and told her about the conversation with Aunt Li just now, "Xiaoqian, do you really plan to keep it like this?" ”

"Shen Yin, will you accompany me?" Su Yuqian looked at her, her eyes were red and swollen.

Shen Yin held her hand and said, "We have always been friends, no matter what happens, of course we will accompany you." ”

"Okay, I'll go see my mom and tell her all about it first." Su Yuqian's eyes were unusually firm.

They came to the ophthalmology clinic, and Aunt Li just came out.

"Mom, how are you doing?" Su Yuqian took off her hat and looked at her mother.

When Aunt Li saw Su Yuqian's appearance, even though she was very angry, she still cried, "Xiaoqian, why are you like this?" Tell me, where the hell have you been? Aunt Li hugged Su Yuqian and cried.

Shen Yin helped Aunt Li and said softly, "Aunt Li, this is the hospital, let's talk in another place." ”

"Mom, are your eyes okay?" Shen Yin asked with concern.

Aunt Li took the case list and said lightly: "The doctor said it's okay, just take a few boxes of medicine." ”

"Mom, let's go get the medicine first." Su Yuqian said in a low voice.

"Wait for me here, I'll come when I go." Aunt Li took Su Yuqian's hand, "Don't run around like this, stay here obediently." ”

"Well, Mom, slow down, we'll wait for you here." Su Yuqian smiled slightly.

Aunt Li walked towards the western medicine area.

Su Yuqian looked at her mother's back, her eyes were slightly sour, "Shen Yin, my mother is indeed much older. ”

"Hmm." Shen Yin replied lightly.

Shen Yin took them to a hotel and booked a private room. As soon as they sat down, Aunt Li asked, "Have you been hiding it from me all along?" What's going on with this kid? ”

Su Yuqian told her mother about her pregnancy, crying and saying, "Mom, please let me give birth to this child, I really can't bear him." If the baby is removed, the doctor says I can never get pregnant again. ”

"Such a big thing, you have been all over us for so long, I really want to beat you hard now." Aunt Li banged on the table angrily.

"Mom, I was wrong, you can fight if you want." Su Yuqian knelt on the ground, and Shen Yin hurriedly grabbed her.

"Aunt Li, you dissipate your anger first, I've already ordered food, let's talk after eating." Shen Yin helped Su Yuqian to a chair and sat down.

She went out and called the waiter to serve the food.

At the dining table, Aunt Li kept her face calm, and Shen Yin glanced at Su Yuqian, signaling her to take good care of her mother and relieve the tense atmosphere in the room.

After eating, Aunt Li finally spoke, "Where do you live now?" I'll be here with your dad these days. ”

Su Yuqian wrote the address on a piece of paper, "Mom, I'm sorry!" ”

"You take care of yourself, I will talk to your dad, and strive to move back as soon as possible." Aunt Li took out 500 yuan, handed it to her and said, "You take this money, I'm in a hurry today." I didn't have much money with me. ”

Su Yuqian took the money on the table, and her heart was moved, "Mom, thank you!" ”

"Shen Yin, I'll trouble you to send Xiaoqian back." Aunt Li looked at Shen Yin and said, smiling with relief.

"Don't worry, Aunt Li." Shen Yin watched Aunt Li leave.

After they settled the bill and walked out of the hotel, Shen Yin stopped a taxi and went back with Su Yuqian.

But what Shen Yin didn't expect was that Wang Mengliang's family actually ate in the same hotel as them, and when they went to check out, Wang Mengliang's mother saw Shen Yin. She pointed to Shen Yin's back and said, "Look, isn't that girl Shen Yin?" And who is the girl next to her? ”

Wang Mengliang followed his mother's voice and saw them. He wanted to step forward and call Shen Yin's name, but he saw Su Yuqian's pregnancy.

"It turns out that what she said is something, which is to accompany that girl to dinner." His mother was a little angry and prepared to walk towards them.

Wang Mengliang immediately stopped his mother and said, "Mom, Shen Yin has something to do now, let's not bother her." ”

His mother asked, "How far have you been in a relationship with her?" She didn't have time to eat with us, but she had time to spend with friends, you say, what the hell are you going to do? Your dad and I are looking forward to your marriage soon. ”

His father also chimed in: "I asked you before, but there is no definite explanation. Xiaoliang, what do you think, let's hear it. ”

"Mom, Dad, let's go home first." He walked in the direction of the cash register.

"Okay, let's go back and have a good talk." His mother compromised, but remained concerned about the matter.

Wang Mengliang sent his parents home and saw that the elderly people in the neighborhood were walking in the direction of the park, "Dad, Mom, we just finished eating, let's go to the park to take a walk to eliminate food." ”

His parents were happy to see that he had time with them and agreed with him.

The two old men sat down on a bench and looked at the old people walking around them, their faces full of relief.

"Dad, Mom, why don't you move over too, live in the city, and take a walk every day like these old people, chatting or something." Wang Mengliang suggested that he had long wanted to bring his parents to live in the city, but due to the previous estrangement, he never said it.

His father smiled with relief, "No, we still like life in the countryside, where the air is clean and there is a place to grow some vegetables, and we are not used to life in the city." ”

"Xiaoliang, what your father and I are most worried about now is your marriage, as long as this matter is handled well, your father and I can rest assured that we can retire." His mother said aggressively.

"Mom, don't force me, you don't have to worry about this matter."

"How do you speak? You're not too young, how can you not be in a hurry? His mother could not understand the fact that normal men were not married after the age of twenty-five, and would urge him every time they met.

"Xiaoliang, just tell me what you think in your heart now, and your mother and I will understand you." His father pulled his mother's clothes and comforted.

Wang Mengliang sat on the same stool and said slowly: "Dad, Mom, I can understand what you say, but I will also support Shen Yin's idea." In this life, I will never marry any girl other than Shen Yin. As for the issue of marriage, we have also thought about it. Shen Yin is a strong girl, after her family suffered an accident, she is still strong to support the life of the whole family, now her grandmother is seriously ill, her sister is still in college, she needs more time to devote to work, I don't want her to be bound by the family, I don't want to put more pressure on her. ”

His mother was a little angry and said, "What's this? As long as you get married, we can help her take care of her family, and her burden will be reduced, right? ”

"Mom, it's different, not to mention it's not the life she wants." Wang Mengliang said firmly, "I'm willing to wait for her until she thinks about it, so don't worry about this matter anymore, okay?" ”

"Son, I probably understand what you said, but it's just your decision, so what does she think?" His father looked at him and said earnestly, "Son, you have grown up and have grown into a real man. You have to remember that marriage is not your business alone, it requires two people to understand each other, understand each other, and bear each other, so that the marriage can be happy and long-lasting. I'll talk to your mom and talk to Shen Yin. ”

"Thank you, Dad, I used to be too willful and did a lot of wrong things to you. I'm sorry! Wang Mengliang said guiltily.

His father patted him on the shoulder and said with relief: "Between father and son, how can there be overnight hatred? It's relieved to see that you're doing well now. I also know some of Shen Yin's family situation, and I also know your situation, and I will always support you. ”

Although he didn't get his mother's understanding, Wang Mengliang still felt very happy to have his father's support.

Shen Yin called and said that he wanted to stay with Su Yuqian for one night, and he wouldn't go back tonight. Wang Mengliang also decided to leave his parents here for one night.
