Chapter 18: The Beginning and the End
Time goes back to before it was revealed.
Originally, Shen's mother and Shen's father were very satisfied with this trip, and they were completely silent in the grace of the journey and the magic of the ancient city, and enjoyed this good time to the fullest. However, a large part of the reason is because this trip was "jackpot", and there was no need to spend money on air tickets, food and accommodation, so I enjoyed myself without any burden, and I couldn't care about what Shen Xing was doing behind my back.
In their words: How many days do we have to stay in this world, and not take advantage of the good health and dexterity of hands and feet to walk around and see the world more.
Lin Minsheng's original plan was to have a showdown when they had a showdown in a happy atmosphere, and he explained to Shen Xing at the beginning: I want to end this situation as soon as possible. This is also the real purpose of this trip in the first place.
It's just that before I had time, I was preempted by Shen's mother.
A month ago, he came to Liushi alone and did not inform Shen Xing in advance, firstly, because he wanted to surprise her, and secondly, he was really afraid of disturbing her performance in the singing group.
However, he really came with the mentality of the son-in-law of the Shen family, he dressed formally and came to the Shen family as soon as possible. It is inconvenient for him to find out his identity and intentions, if he tells him honestly, Shen's mother will definitely call Shen Xing, and then she will still disturb her participation in the singing group. He only vaguely introduced himself as "Xiaoxu", but in fact he was "Xiaojiao", that is, their son-in-law.
His judgment of the situation and his good intentions were finally misinterpreted by Shen's mother as ill-intentioned and untreacherous.
In fact, he did play a trick on the mind and play with words.
And in the days that followed, he thought it would be inappropriate to visit again.
Many things are not at the right time, and it is difficult to turn around; And some things come with opportunities in an inadvertent turn.
On that day in the prayer wheel section, many people stood in a circle around the prayer wheel. Shen Xing's family was headed by her mother, followed by her father, she was standing behind her parents, and when the prayer wheel began to turn, Lin Minsheng suddenly stepped forward, stood behind her and said softly: "At this moment, I just want to be close to you." β
She was caught off guard, but she was also full of joy.
The prayer wheel is a sacred and pious symbol of the ancient moonlight city of Dukezong, and people who have visited the ancient city will record or leave a trace of the most special memories in their own way.
Standing in front of Shen's mother is a travel enthusiast who likes to use his mobile phone to record the distance traveled and the beautiful scenery he stayed. Shen's mother only looked up by chance, and saw her daughter and a man snuggling behind them from the man's mobile phone.
Two people who love each other, the eyes and expressions of mutual admiration are always overflowing, and they can't hide it at all.
Moreover, Shen's mother recognized Lin Minsheng at a glance, the young man who had visited her home not long ago, and she was very impressed by him.
He said that he was Zhao Heping's classmate, and he passed by Liushi to help carry things, but he was reluctant to leave quickly, and visited left and right on the grounds that the decoration of his home was very exquisite, and even pretended to stop at the door of Shen Xing's room to look.
Women are very sensitive, and Shen's mother's eyes are also very vicious, and she saw some clues at that time.
At this moment, she was completely sure.
That night, Shen's mother pretended to be calm and asked Shen Xing casually: "Where have you been every morning?" I didn't eat breakfast and was careful to break my stomach. β
"I ate it, every day."
"Where did you eat?"
"Side dishes."
Shen Xing was too young to notice that her mother was planning something she hadn't expected in her heart.
Then, there was the scene at the coffee shop.
Actually, Shen's mother doesn't hate Lin Minsheng, he is eight feet tall, dignified, humble, and can see that he is very literate, she believes that he is not a bad person.
As for the matter on the table, she was furious and made hurtful remarks, just because she was angry.
angry that her daughter was so uncaring, and angry that she had teamed up with outsiders to deceive her; angry at a young man who had only met a few times, he abducted her daughter who had been raised with hard work; is even more angry that he is a native of City D, hundreds of kilometers away, thinking that if his daughter really follows him, it will be a veritable distant marriage, and it will be difficult to meet in the future.
The more I thought about it, the more angry I became, so angry that I felt like I was going to be irritable, so angry that I burst into tears, and I was so angry that my liver and intestines were broken.
Therefore, she could only scold Shen Dad and Shen Xing, just to vent the sadness and sadness in her heart.
It's all because of love.
The love is deep, and the responsibility is keen.
However, Shen's mother is still sensible, she doesn't really want to break them up.
She just lost her temper, and didn't put pressure on Shen Xing, didn't say that there was him or me, let Shen Xing choose between her and Lin Minsheng, or threatened to sever the mother-daughter relationship, she didn't have it.
She just closed the door and wiped her tears.
"Pity the hearts of parents all over the world." At night, Shen's father comforted her, "When a child grows up, he will have to be his home after all, and now primary school students are learning in their textbooks." β
"If I had known, I wouldn't have had a daughter."
"It's the same with having a son, you see Zhao Heping coming back several times a year."
Zhao Heping, since she went to college, she really hasn't seen him a few times as an aunt, and even Zhao Heping's father rarely meets him in a year, and Shen's mother suddenly feels relieved.
"No matter if you have children or daughters, children grow up to marry and live." Dad Shen sighed.
Shen's mother smiled at him, they have lived together for more than 20 years, and she is angry with him and complains about him on weekdays, but he still knows her best.
β¦β¦
Shen Xing naturally didn't know this.
She deleted her edited text messages word by word, feeling that it was inappropriate for her to say anything, but in just a few days, she found that she couldn't even text and chat.
"This kind of thing needs to be persistent." Lin Minsheng once told her, "It's like love words have to be said every day, otherwise you will be rusty after a long time." β
At that time, she had not yet appreciated it, and now she was troubled by a sense of loss that flickered and flickered.
She tossed and turned that night.
The lights were out in the dormitory, and she didn't know how long she looked at the darkness in the night, until a bright light suddenly flashed, and then her favorite song sounded.
At two o'clock in the morning, Lin Minsheng actually called her at this time. Everyone was asleep, and in order to avoid disturbing others, Shen Xing had no choice but to press the answer button immediately.
"Starsβ" A familiar voice immediately came from the other end of the phone.
"It's me."
"Didn't sleep?" He could tell from her voice whether she was asleep or awake.
"Didn't sleep."
"It's not good to stay up late."
"Hmm." She wanted to say "you're staying up late, too", but she disappeared into the darkness anyway.
"What happened to your phone the other day?" When he spoke long sentences, his voice seemed a little muffled, as if he had drunk alcohol.
"You've been drinking?" Shen Xing asked in a low voice. I've known him for so long that I didn't know he could drink.
"Drank a little. Our R&D was successful, and today the company celebrates. β
I see, she thought it was ...... Thought......
Terrified? How could it be, he was such a sane person.
Shen Xing pondered for a moment: "Congratulations!" β
"You haven't told me yet, what happened to your phone the other day?"
This time, Shen Xing was silent for a long time.
He asked knowingly, and she was speechless.
She tried to avoid the topic, but he pretended to be nothing.
She was never his opponent.
Through the bright light of the mobile phone screen, Shen Xing suddenly remembered that Ah Mei had said "You are just a fledgling little girl, he has been on the battlefield for a long time", she used to dislike this sentence so much, and now she thinks it is the most reasonable interpretation.
