Chapter 144: Daydreaming
Shao Cong stood at the corner of the stairs, his mother and Jiaxin's conversation, he heard it clearly, and next to him was his grandmother who was holding on.
"She's gone, you can go down!" The old lady let go of him and said with relief: "Don't blame me and your mother for thinking about it, it's true that grandma has a grudge against you, but she always doesn't like that girl's film now." ”
"Grandma, I said, my legs have nothing to do with her!" Shao Cong looked at the old lady with some disappointment: "You and my mother have always been at odds, but I didn't expect to reach a consensus on this matter, sure enough, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, this is true." It's just, I don't know, did Jiaxin's approach really achieve your and my mother's goals? ”
"Sooner or later, she will know that if this family does not welcome her, even if she squeezes in, she will not be happy!" After speaking, the old lady went back to the room step by step.
Shao Cong came to the living room with difficulty by holding on to the staircase railing, and walked towards Li Wanyun step by step, Li Wanyun heard the movement, and looked up to see that Shao Cong had come to her, his face was full of disappointment, and his eyes were full of anger.
"You promised me last night that you wouldn't tell Jiaxin about my injury!" Shao Cong was aggressive as soon as he opened his mouth: "But what did you say just now, I thought you would feel sorry for me, and you would stand on my side, but I didn't expect that you would hurt Jiaxin with your grandmother." ”
Without waiting for Li Wanyun to speak, Shao Cong sneered and continued: "For so many years, our family has been peaceful in the eyes of outsiders, my father is the most well-known entrepreneur in this county, his wealth is prosperous, and his business has done in Shanghai, my uncle teaches at a famous university in Kyoto, and my grandfather is a veteran. But I didn't like this home since I was a child, because it was so impersonal. Our family is just wearing a harmonious hat, in fact, there are problems everywhere, my grandfather didn't untie the knot with my dad even when he died, and my uncle didn't come back once in three or five years...... Now, do you also want to make one more gap between our mother and son? ”
"It's just that I always think that my mother is the kindest, but I don't know that you still have this means, no wonder you can become Shao Shifeng's pillow person!"
said so much in one breath, turned around and left after speaking, without giving Li Wanyun a chance to defend himself. It wasn't until Li Wanyun watched Shao Cong go out of the house that she got up and chased out.
"Cong Cong... Son... Where are you going? Li Wanyun stopped in front of Shao Cong: "Are you going to find Jiaxin?" ”
"I'll go back to my own place!" Shao Cong's eyes were empty, and he crossed Li Wanyun, not knowing where to look.
"You don't even have anyone there, you haven't lived there for almost a year, how can you go back? No, get me back to the house. ”
Li Wanyun stepped forward to pull Shao Cong, but Shao Cong threw him away: "I'm holding back my panic here, I can't breathe!" ”
"Congcong, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, your father will be back in a while, your grandmother is still waiting upstairs, don't play with the child's temper." You're nineteen years old. ”
"You know I'm nineteen? Do you know that I've grown up? Then why can't I even do my own thing? ”
Li Wanyun was choked by Shao Cong's words. She knew that if I was all for your good, then it would be a more intense argument that would only push her son out, and he was angry right now, so pacification was the most important thing.
"It's my mother's fault, it's my mother's fault, but I really feel sorry for you, you are my son, hurt in my son's body, hurt in my mother's heart, you can't experience that feeling." Li Wanyun's eyes were red, "Congcong, obedient, for the sake of today's Chinese New Year's Eve, accompany your parents to spend the New Year at home, okay?" ”
*********
Jiaxin walked all the way home from Shao Cong's house, not because the tricycle was too expensive, but because she had a lot of questions to think about.
Although Jiaxin has never been a mother, she can completely understand Li Wanyun's mood when she protects her son.
It's like if Jiacheng is covered with scars because of a girl in the future, then even if he is timid and obedient, Mu Chunhua will not give up so well, but everyone's methods are different, Shao Cong's mother is a smart and atmospheric person, she didn't make things more embarrassing, in order to save face for everyone.
Mu Chunhua was busy with lunch, and the preparation was relatively simple, after all, she thought she was eating alone, but she didn't expect that as soon as the dishes and chopsticks were placed on the table, Jia Xin pushed the door and came in.
The face is not very good-looking, like frozen, and like something has happened!
"You're back? Why, didn't you eat? Mu Chunhua hurriedly added another pair of clay dishes and chopsticks, thinking, with Shao Cong's mother's love for Jiaxin, she couldn't help but leave her to eat, thinking so in her heart, but she didn't dare to say so, she looked at Jiaxin with a smile and said, "But it's really time for you to come back, I just made a meal." ”
Jiaxin nodded, sat down at the table, and glanced at the dishes on the table, braised hairtail, cold kelp, and a meatball soup!
"Mom, bring me the wine again!"
"You're going to drink?" Mu Chunhua was a little unhappy: "It's rare for us two mothers, let's talk well, don't drink!" ”
In fact, Mu Chunhua saw that Jiaxin was in trouble!
"Yes, it's rare for the two of us, let's have a drink!" With that, Jiaxin got up and went to get it herself.
"Hey, you kid..."
Jiaxin returned to the table with a bottle of red wine in her hand, which she planned to give to Song Qingqing, but the master was hospitalized. Jia Xin poured two cups, one was left in front of him, and one was brought to Mu Chunhua.
"Come, Mom..." Jia Xin picked up the wine glass, symbolically touched Mu Chunhua, and then drank it all.
"You kid, how can you drink like that!" Mu Chunhua licked a small sip slightly, grinned and asked Jiaxin: "What kind of wine is this, so unpleasant?" Astringent. ”
"You just call it... Wine Bar! Saying that, Jiaxin drank another glass: "This wine is not intoxicating, it's okay!" ”
"No matter how drunk it is, it's also wine, and since it's wine, it will get drunk. It's just a matter of drinking more and drinking less, otherwise why wouldn't it be called water? Mu Chunhua looked at Jiaxin and said with some concern: "What's the matter, can't you tell me?" Do you have to drink? ”
Jiaxin deliberately ignored the second half of Mu Chunhua's sentence, and smiled with a smile: "Mom, you always raise the bar... But this wine is much lower than the degree of liquor, it's really okay, it's the New Year, happy... Make an exception and drink it once! ”
Jiaxin didn't care about Mu Chunhua's obstruction, cup after cup, cup after cup, until she drank until she was lying on the table, she didn't stop!
Mu Chunhua looked at Jiaxin, not to mention how distressed he was. But she didn't dare to ask, and she didn't dare to say more.
Mu Chunhua got up and mixed Jiaxin into the room, put her on the bed, covered the quilt, and then sat on the edge of the bed to watch her, listening to her sigh even though she was drunk.
"It's my mother's incompetence that didn't let you be born in a rich and noble family, everything has to rely on yourself!" Mu Chunhua wiped her tears: "Mom knows, you must have been wronged today, but if you don't say it, Mom will assume that you don't know." But then again, although this Shao family has a head and face in this county, but what is wrong with my daughter, we are not bad, not to mention that we are just a target now, who can say exactly what will happen in the future! Your mother and I have lived like this all my life, and I don't want my children to be like me. ”
Jia Xin couldn't hear these words, she fell asleep, fell asleep, and had a dream that Shao Cong told her that she would never be separated in this life.
Jia Xin has heard a saying before, saying why people dream and hope that dreams come true, it is because people have too many worries in their subconscious!
I don't know how long I slept, Jiaxin woke up and looked out the window, the sky was still bright. Outside, the sound of firecrackers and fireworks was endless. Jia Xin smiled bitterly: It turned out to be a pipe dream.
Mu Chunhua boiled millet porridge, put wolfberries and red dates, heard the movement in Jiaxin's room, and hurriedly pushed the door in.
"Awake? Let's drink a bowl of porridge, I drank so much wine just now, and I didn't eat a few mouthfuls of food, and my stomach must be empty! ”
Jia Xin nodded, and then pretended to ask casually, "That, when I was asleep, did you... Call me? ”
Mu Chunhua knew who she was asking, but it was not easy to tell the truth, for fear that Jiaxin would be disappointed, so she had to support her, Jiaxin knew in her heart, stopped asking, and went out to drink porridge.
As soon as she sat down, the phone rang unexpectedly, startling Jiaxin, she put down the spoon and hesitated for a few seconds before getting up to answer it.
"Hey..."
"Jia Xin..."
As soon as the phone was connected, Shao Cong couldn't wait to call Jiaxin's name.
"Jiaxin, are you okay?" Shao Cong asked worriedly.
"You... Did you hear it all? Jia Xin asked.
"You know I'm upstairs, right?"
"I promised you to go to your house, why wouldn't you wait for me at home." Jia Xin's face finally had a smile: "You promised me something, and you never broke your promise!" ”
"I'm sorry for my mom. Jiaxin, I'm sorry, I didn't know what she would tell you, but fortunately my dad wasn't here today, otherwise..."
"It's all gone!" Jia Xin comforted Shao Cong instead: "I can understand my aunt's feelings." Shao Cong, when it comes to this, it's me who doesn't, it's me who put all my mind into learning and opening a store. It seems that all along, it is I who keep asking for you, causing you trouble, causing trouble, but giving you very little, just like this time, I don't even know that you were injured this time, Shao Cong, it's me who is bad, but you shouldn't hide it from me! ”
"Yes, yes, I shouldn't hide it from you, if I told you, at least you wouldn't be so caught off guard by my mother today..."
Jiaxin shed tears, she didn't feel wronged, nor because of that dream, she really felt that she didn't care enough about Shao Cong, even now, Shao Cong still thought about her, and she felt very incompetent about this.
"Don't cry, Jiaxin, it's not good to cry for the New Year!" Shao Cong hated himself for being too long to whip, and there was no way to comfort her beside Jiaxin: "Don't worry, no matter who says anything, it won't change me, and in this life, I won't be separated from you!" ”
It turns out that daydreaming is not delusional!
