Section 77 Precursors of a storm
Of course, this so-called preferential treatment is also temporary. There are some things that I just don't have to say too much, I think, we all know each other, and this is my mother and me. Perhaps, her mother is not bold, she just knows her situation, she is in a dilemma, and the world is good or bad, and if it comes, it will be safe, so it is better to face it calmly. This may be why my mother is still standing in the hall of the Cao family, facing so many spectators and audiences opposite, and she can still be calm.
At that time, my mother's heart should have thought that there would be a day when the East Window incident happened, I don't know if my mother had already taken precautions and had already thought about the worst side of the matter, but I am a child after all, and my heart is always up and down every time I mention this matter.
Another change in my mother is that since I left my mother and came to Cao's house, I found that there was something more resolute in my mother's eyes than before. I'm not sure what kind of perseverance this kind is, but I know that the way she looks at the Cao family will not be as frightened as she was at the beginning. When I grew up, I learned about the adult world, and perhaps, the truth of this is that what should be faced is always to be faced, and that's all.
Xue Hao crossed Erlang's legs on the side: "Eh, Rong Jiao'er, why do I always think that your daughter is very like the Cao family?" It's the feeling between the eyebrows.,You say it's not what everyone often says.,Living together will be more similar.。 I found that this time I met her more like the last time I saw her. Look at the bridge of the nose. One sentence attracted everyone's attention.
I saw my father bow his head and turn the lighter in his hand, round and round. Maybe it was because of my weak heart, or out of nervousness, when I looked up at everyone, I happened to meet Aunt Qin's gaze. I was startled and lowered my head suddenly. At this time, Cao Ge said in a very loud voice: "Eh, Xue Hao, when you talk about it like this, don't say it, it's a bit similar." I always felt that Mu Xi looked more kind, and when you said that, I finally found the reason. Haha, that's interesting. ”
"Like?" Cao Cancan put his schoolbag on the sofa and turned to look at me.
"Do we two look alike? It's okay, why don't I think that Cao Muxi is just a little whiter than me. ”
Xue Hao stood up at this time and brought his mother a glass of water. This rich boy can see from the gesture of serving water to his mother that he respects his mother.
"Rong Jiao'er, drink some water, it just so happens that the child is back, let's talk for a while, and then eat after chatting."
Actually, this chat is not painful for me, what is painful is the content of the chat and the person to whom it is chatted. Especially in front of so many people, my mother and I had the feeling that we were being interrogated in a police station. Of course, I knew this was just a metaphor, after all, judging by the atmosphere of the day, what happened to my mother and I was not at all.
At this time, Cao Ge suddenly said to his mother: "What kind of relative is my sister from my mother's hometown?" Why have I never heard my mother say that? After all, my mother has been coming to Nanjing from her hometown for too many years, and many people there have stopped contacting. When I came back this time, I was surprised to hear that you were a relative of our hometown. ”
Cao Qi laughed beside him: "What impression can you have?" All three of us were born here. If you want to say that you have been in my hometown in the Northeast for a long time, it is still me. You've only been back to your mom twice when you were a kid. But I don't have the impression that, to be honest, I don't have any impression either. Maybe I don't remember the memory of this childhood very clearly. ”
Grandma put the cup on the coffee table and leaned back on the sofa: "Have you ever seen a distant relative who is always dangling in front of you, is it still called a distant relative?" You don't understand, anyway, I tell you, in terms of kinship in China, oh, at my age, sometimes I can't be clear. ”
Cao Qi nodded: "Well, this is really." Let's just say that the last time Xiaoqin mentioned to me that she wouldn't talk about seniority, just me, I can't figure out this uncle, that aunt or something? It's really messy. ”
Suddenly, Cao Ge said on the side: "Sister, can you take the liberty of asking, what does your lover do?" I've never heard Mu Xi talk about it for so long. When my mother heard this, she was stunned. My mother's lover, my father, was a very rare species in the eyes of others. I know that many people want to peek into the secrets, so my mother and I tried our best to hide it.
The interrogation of this group of parties made my heart rise to my throat, and I couldn't help but wonder, how should my mother and I mention the future of this man?
I was asked about my father's reaction at the Cao family, and in the Cao family's opinion, they always thought that my father had abandoned me and my mother. As for what my father did, or the reason for the composition and separation of my family, and how to write this script, my mother and I didn't have a line on this part before we entered the Cao family. So, when people ask me about it, I know what's behind their curiosity.
It's a pity that the crappy acting skills and the paper package are not popular, and they will always be exposed.
The mother paused for about three seconds, then lowered her head and said lightly, "Passed away." This sentence made the atmosphere in the hall instantly quiet, and there was more of a sadness in the air. After listening to my mother's answer, I breathed a long sigh of relief in my heart, and it was okay.
This passing directly brought all my previous intuitive reactions to my father in the Cao family into this scene. I lowered my head very low, but I didn't expect that just as I lowered my head, Aunt Qin came over and put her arm around my shoulder. I know what Aunt Qin's purpose is, she feels that for such a young child, her biological father has passed away, and the trauma of this matter is unspeakable for me and my mother, especially me.
As a mother, she is pitying me and feeling sorry for me. Cao Ge said sorry, meaning that his mother's sad past was aroused because of his inquiry. I thought that the topic of the chat would change, but as a result, I overestimated the development of the plot.
"Well, sister, say something happy. I'm curious about you and my second brother knowing each other before, can you tell me about it? When he and Xue Hao often went to listen to your plays that year, I should have just entered college and was a freshman. I don't remember exactly, anyway, it's been too many years. This period of the past, for the mother, she should not know how to mention it. The point is, if you talk about this, there will be too many loopholes. I know the reason why my mother stopped for a long time, she wanted someone to come out to help her, even if it was "It's time to eat, don't ask so much", at least she wouldn't be so embarrassed.
It's a pity that time passed minute by minute, but no one stood up to say a word. The moment the mother looked up, she was shocked to find that everyone on the opposite side was looking at her with their necks stretched. My father didn't speak, so he probably didn't know how to talk about it. Grandma didn't speak, I think it should be that she probably prevaricated too many times in front of everyone, and she had no way to prevaricate other people's questions about this matter. However, the more you cover it up, the more confusing the plot becomes.
Before his mother could speak, Cao Ge suddenly made up another shot: "Second brother, you said that you have been chasing Rong Jiao'er for so many years, you should be very kind to her." You said that you didn't even look at it, and it was like you didn't know it. It's weird! ”
Cao Ge's words made his father quite embarrassed. He blushed, lowered his head and whispered: "I was still young at that time, and now I don't listen to any stars now." ”
Xue Hao sat next to his father and slapped his father with his elbow: "Eh, isn't it, didn't you just finish listening to it two days ago?" clamoring to listen to a song that Rong Jiao'er sang before, but looking for someone else. In a word, he invisibly pushed his father to the forefront. My father's face turned red when he brushed it.
Aunt Qin sat on the other side of the sofa and kept tilting her head to look at her father. I think she must have more questions in her mind. The real anger made my palms start to sweat, my head buzzed, and my physiological reaction at that time was like the first time Aunt Qin asked my father, and at this time, how I wish that someone would pay attention to me again and save this small universe that is about to explode in time?
It's a pity that they are all waiting for the answer. The mother had no choice, so she took a sip of water and said softly, "I don't remember exactly what year it was." ”
"Sister, my second brother said that I always went to listen to your play before, didn't you?"
"Oh, Cao Ge, you don't have to ask about this. Didn't I say that you always listen, always listen. As a result, at this time, Zhang Jing said lightly on the side: "It's quite persistent." This sentence is indeed very small, but when it was said, the people in the room did not say anything, and in the quiet situation, Zhang Jing's sentence was very abrupt. She smiled sheepishly.
Xue Hao rubbed his hands: "Hey, that Cao Mu, this is all about this, I'll just say it." That's it, during that time, Cao Mu was heartbroken, and he needed time to recuperate. So how to recuperate? As it is always said in the novel, shifting the goal of the hobby is the beginning of rebirth. I pulled Cao Mu to watch the play. At that time, it looked like he was going to die or live. But, you see, how about now? Okay, right? This is really thanks to Rong Jiaoer's frequent enlightenment at that time. ”
"Enlightenment? This sounds like the relationship between the elder sister and the second brother should be relatively close. Why does it look so rusty now? It's not my business, I just think my sister is a good person, but she's too introverted, I'm afraid that there will be a misunderstanding between you and you won't make it clear. ”
