Chapter 236: Su Jin Asked: Have You Ever Loved Her?
Jin Hengyuan sighed lightly and nodded lightly:
"Yes, I loved."
The tone is affirmative.
Because not long ago, he had heard his father talk about it, and now that he thinks about the mistakes between them, he can't help but sigh for a while:
"It's just that when my father first married my mother, he really didn't have much affection, and that's true.
"After all, my father grew up in China and was more conservative, while my mother was an overseas Chinese who grew up in the UK. The two are different in every way.
"My father was old and sophisticated, and he was more disciplined; My mother was enthusiastic and unrestrained, yearning for freedom, and was used to a Western-style style, and did not like to be constrained.
"Because when I was playing in Hong Kong, I was molested, and it happened that my father helped out. She identified my father and chased after Mrs. Xiao.
"She was a confident person, thinking that she could touch my father's heart, and in the years after her marriage, she tried to accommodate and run this small family well.
Later, I found out that my father could not forget the old love, and my mother's heart gradually cooled. No longer working as a full-time wife at home, she has become the head of a chain hotel.
"Because of busyness, the relationship between husband and wife is becoming more and more weak.
"Aunt Zong Jie was buried in Baiyang Village when she died. There is no posthumous image. Because of his longing, his father painted many portraits. In the third year of our marriage, my mother discovered the portraits, and the husband and wife had a big quarrel because of them. Therefore, in 96, she found out that her father still had old photos of his deceased wife, so she turned the boat over in a sea of vinegar and was out of control.
"My father said: He was afraid that his mother would be angry when she saw Aunt Zong Jie's photo, and he didn't dare to let Jing Xun see the photos he hid.
He believes that hiding photos is not an old love, but just a memorial.
"He wanted to find a chance to give that photo to Jing Xun.
As a result, it was torn by my mother and burned to ashes, and the only one was gone, so he was angry and did it, and later regretted it very much.
"As a son, I hope that my parents can be loving and reconciled, not to mention having such a young sister.
"So, I put a lot of thought into that marriage to help them keep it going.
Because of my persuasion, my mother also calmly reflected on her excesses, and in the following months, their relationship eased.
But later, she still insisted on divorcing the marriage.
"Six years ago, when I brought Gu Lijun to my mother, my mother did everything she could to oppose it, and her attitude was very radical. I didn't understand the reason and asked: Why? Guess what my mom said? ”
He plucked a flower from inside the flower bed, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it.
She didn't ask, just watched quietly and listened to him go on:
"She said, Gu Lijun looks like your Aunt Zongjie, and the reason why your father and I can't go on is because even if your Aunt Zongjie is dead, she is still caught in us. And now you have come to me and told me: You are going to marry such a woman. Are you going to disgust me for the rest of my life? Okay, if you marry, I can only cut off the mother-son relationship with you.
"My mother has been strong all her life and can do everything very well.
"Diploma, she is a postdoc; The hotel, which she operates, does not let the eyebrows; son, she raised and made her proud, but her first marriage failed
。 Eighteen years of youth can't be exchanged for a man's sincerity. It was a fatal pain with her.
"I think my mother is making a bit of a fuss and looks alike, what does it matter? This reason is too far-fetched.
"At that time, I didn't know that there was a secret behind it, and I tried to reconcile the relationship between these two women, but my mother refused to compromise at all. Her attitude of opposition was something I had never encountered in my twenty-six years of life.
"It was also at that time that I discovered for the first time that it is so difficult for a man to stand between his mother and his future wife.
"After seeing the failure of her parents, Gu Lijun wanted to reason with my mother several times. I stopped them.
"In order to appease her, I promised to go to the marriage registration first."
When he said this, he stared straight at Su Jin, for fear that she would be angry because of this matter, but fortunately, her expression was very, very calm, and then, his tone took a big turn:
"But on the day of the appointment, I didn't go."
Hearing this, Su Jin asked lightly and curiously:
"Why didn't you go?"
She wanted to hear what was going on in his mind.
If, at that time, he cared enough and showed up on time, he and Gu Lijun would definitely be able to get married, and there would be nothing to do with her!
That with him, it was a big turnaround.
Because of his failure to make an appointment, many things have been spread out in the other direction.
Jin Hengyuan smiled lightly, his eyes flickered, and he walked towards the pond: "Gu Lijun told you: Mother called me away. Because a teacher had a big accident and needed a lawyer. The situation was urgent, and I had to call and tell her to put it off. ”
Su Jin knew that if something particularly important hadn't happened, he would definitely not have missed the appointment, and that was the case.
"In my opinion, life and death are big, and everything else is small. Push it back, it's not a particularly serious matter, it's just a matter of a day or two. Convenience with others is convenience for oneself. That teacher and I have a good teacher-student relationship. I can't leave it alone.
"She got angry and thought I wasn't paying enough attention to her and that I was deliberately fooling her. And I had a big fight on the phone. Then he didn't answer my phone for two days. On the third day, when I came back from outside, I found out that something had happened to her......"
By the pond, there was a beautiful corridor, Jin Hengyuan grabbed a handful of bait and sprinkled it on the surface of the pond, which immediately attracted countless colorful fish.
"You know what happened after that...... It's similar to what Gu Lijun said......"
He looked down at the bait in the bait bowl:
"I want to add that after Gu Lijun was forced to marry my father helplessly, she was depressed after childbirth, her psychological state was extremely bad, and she wanted to commit suicide several times, but she was rescued.
"My father kept it a secret. Don't let me know anything about her at all.
"In the family, whether it is grandparents or other uncles and aunts, no one admits that Gu Lijun is the daughter-in-law of the Xiao family.
"My dad doesn't plan to have a wedding, you can figure out why.
"Because of Gu Lijun's illness, Gu Lihua contacted me several times, hoping that I would go to see her.
"I didn't want to go.
"First, I know some truths. These two sisters and brothers have made me disheartened, and there is no longer half of the old love.
"Second, my mother insisted on divorce in 97 because she knew that my father was raising 'Gu Lijun' outside
。
"This kind of raising, in the eyes of my mother, is an arrangement; In my father's eyes, it was funding. There is a discrepancy between them in their understanding of this matter. It is also because there is a serious problem with the trust of the couple.
"Either way, she was the trigger for the divorce, that's a fact. I really shouldn't have anything to do with her and break my mother's heart again.
"Three, I just hope to use my ruthlessness to extinguish her thoughts.
"Not seeing is also an attitude.
"If she figured it out, she would have understood, I had let it go.
If she can't figure it out, she will only be sad when she sees it. Pointless.
"After all, in that case, I can't do anything anymore. The only thing I can do is not to fight with her son for my father's inheritance in the future.
"It's the only thing that can make it up to her."
The second bait was dropped.
In the pool, a group of fish grabbed, the sound of the water was loud, and other than that, the surroundings were quiet.
Su Jin listened quietly and asked for a while: "You...... Have you ever loved her? ”
It seems that it should not be asked.
But she was genuinely curious.
"Maybe I like it, in my lonely life, there is a cheeky girl who scolds and doesn't run, carefully pleases you, treats you with heart, and after a long time, I feel that she is not bad. Naturally, it came together. After a long time, my family urged me to get married, and I thought, let's get married...... Everybody has to get married, doesn't it? ”
Jin Hengyuan smiled lightly: "Thinking about it now, it's really stupid." ”
"Why do you feel stupid?"
Su Jin asked lightly.
Jin Hengyuan stared at it: "It shouldn't be settled." That's irresponsibility to yourself. It is also irresponsible to others. ”
Su Jin chewed: These words are intriguing!
"I was able to let go because I finally saw my heart. Human beings are born in a process of continuous maturation. From a child to an adult, the mind will grow through continuous learning, and the feelings will also be transformed from ignorance and confusion. I may have liked Gu Lijun for a while, but that's not love. ”
From the beginning, what made him pound his heart was always the girl in front of him.
Only then, she didn't belong to him.
Su Jin was a little embarrassed by him, and the boot password prompt on the computer flashed in his mind, and blurted out that he wanted to ask about the photo:
That's really, really weird.
