Chapter 41 (3)
This is the first time she has spoken to him, and for more than half a year, Cheng Jiahua has imagined day and night what their first conversation will be, and almost every possibility has been fantasized by him, and he has prepared early. But until what happened in front of him, he was still caught off guard, his face turned red, and he stammered but couldn't say a complete sentence.
"Forget it." Jiajia looked at him in disappointment, "It doesn't make sense to ask this question now." β
"What do you mean?" Cheng Jiahua saw her gaze drooping, and couldn't help but get anxious.
"And what do you mean?" Jiajia asked again, her eyes wandering over the ground, her toes touching the stones on the ground from time to time, "I know you come to my house every day, but you don't enter the gate." β
She knows it all! Cheng Jiahua felt shy on the one hand, but also excited on the other, it turned out that she had seen it, so she should also know her mind, right? Will she know?
"What about you! Then you ......" Cheng Jiahua hurriedly spoke, but he was preparing words, not knowing how to ask. Seeing him so flustered, Jiajia raised her head and glanced at him quickly, and suddenly smiled, "What are you nervous about?" β
"I, I'm ......" Cheng Jiahua stammered two more sentences, he was angry, pinched his thigh with his hand, trying to calm himself down, and then said, "This is the first time, the first time I have told a girl these ......"
"I see." Jiajia smiled again. Although her smile was shallow, it seemed to be full of the intoxicating sunshine, which shone on the bottom of Cheng Jiahua's heart for a while, making him can't help but be stunned. He had never seen her so closely, there was a small mole on her forehead, which was just right, the fluff on her forehead reflected the golden light in the sun, her skin was white and delicate, and her lips were small and round, but they were round and full. Cheng Jiahua was stunned, and he didn't even listen to Jiajia's question, until she raised her hand and waved it in front of her eyes, he woke up, hurriedly turned his head, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and became flustered.
"What the hell are you going to say?" Jiajia asked again, turned her head to look behind her, her expression became anxious, "Say it quickly, I'm going to go back after that." Suddenly, the previous loss appeared on her face again, she sighed, and said faintly, "Perhaps, you only have this chance to tell me." β
"Don't you see? My mind ......" Cheng Jiahua grabbed her hand and said anxiously, suddenly stunned, and asked blankly, "What did you just say?" β
"I saidβ" Jiajia glanced at him, her eyes full of sadness, and gently pushed his hand away, "This is the first and last time we have spoken. β
"Why?" Cheng Jiahua still looked at her puzzled, her hands motionless in the air, as if her soft and warm little hands were still in the palm of his hand.
"I'm married." Jiajia said, her eyes gradually becoming moist. She glanced at him reluctantly, turned around suddenly, and said angrily, "You just don't say it, it's useless to say it, it's going to be over anyway." β
Cheng Jiahua looked at her back in disbelief, and refused to believe that she had heard it with her own ears. He never thought that she would be married, and in his mind, the word never even appeared. His hand hung down weakly, as if this sentence slapped him hard, gritted his teeth and asked, "What you said is true?" β
"Who can lie to you?" Jiajia stomped her foot, her voice choked up, "If you areβif you're trueβforget it, you don't understand, I'll go back." She took a step forward and ran back the way she had come. And Cheng Jiahua was still standing in place, looking at her back, unable to come back to her senses.
On the way back that day, Cheng Jiahua's thoughts were numb, and he hadn't reacted from Jiajia's words. It wasn't until he walked to the gate of his house that he suddenly woke up, Jiajia is married, what does it mean to be married? It means that she is getting married. married to another man, a man he did not know, and from then on, she had intimate contact with that man, had children, and had nothing to do with herself. He felt terrified in his heart, and he couldn't imagine what would happen to him if he didn't see Jiajia from now on. He walked in in a daze, racking his brains to think of a way, how to prevent Jiajia from getting married, so that he could go to see her forever. When his mind was in a state of confusion, suddenly there was a loud shout from his head, which frightened Cheng Jiahua almost weak, and fell to his knees, he hurriedly looked up, and saw that it was his father's serious and terrifying face, he panicked in his heart, and almost shouted out.
"If you don't go to school, what are you doing when you come back!" Cheng Tielong grimaced, frowned tightly, and asked sharply. He has always been very strict with his children, but when he should go to school, he saw Cheng Jiahua coming back with a schoolbag on his back, and he thought in his heart that his son had done something wrong and provoked right and wrong. Especially at this moment, seeing Cheng Jiahua showing such a panicked look, he was even more sure in his heart.
"I-I'm ......" Cheng Jiahua stammered, he subconsciously looked left and right, as if he wanted to find a life-saving straw, suddenly, his heart lit up, and he didn't have time to think about what the consequences of doing this would be, so he hurriedly raised his head and said, "Dad, I want to marry!" β
Cheng Tielong looked at his son in astonishment, and didn't react for a while. He couldn't believe the two words he heard in his ears, and asked in disbelief, "What did you say?" β
"I said, I want to marry!" Cheng Jiahua's heart settled down a little, so he accentuated his tone and repeated.
After Cheng Tielong was stunned for a moment, he was full of anger, he raised his hand and waved it at Cheng Jiahua's face, and scolded again and again: "You are not a good person!" How old are you! I thought of marrying! You don't study well for Lao Tzu, what kind of mess is in your head! I spent so much money and energy to provide for something like you! β
Cheng Jiahua straightened his back, pursed his lips, and endured the scolding and beating from his father like a tide, and when his father was tired of beating and scolding, he opened his mouth and said categorically again: "I want to marry!" β
Cheng Tielong was so angry that he almost fainted, he turned his head and looked eagerly around, rushed into the charcoal room and picked up a stick, and whistled and waved it towards Cheng Jiahua. Fortunately, Mu Shi heard the voice in the back room, if she hadn't come out in time to stop her, Cheng Jiahua would have been killed at the gate today. She cried and grabbed Cheng Tielong's arm, and shouted at Cheng Jiahua: "How can you make your father angry!" You unfilial son, you go quickly! Let's go! β
Cheng Jiahua was as if he had been nailed to the ground, not moving, and the expression on his face was extremely stubborn.
"Awesome, awesome!" Cheng Tielong muttered, the flames in his eyes gradually turned into a complex emotion of hating iron and steel, "His wings have grown stiff and he is about to fly!" He threw down the stick, kicked Cheng Jiahua hard, and turned to walk towards the room. Mu Shi saw that her husband was leaving, so she wiped the tears on her face, rushed to Cheng Jiahua, and checked up and down, for fear that he would be beaten up by her husband. Fortunately, except for the red fingerprints on her face, there were no other wounds on her body, and she felt a little more at ease.
"You kid! What are you talking about? Mu Shi punched Cheng Jiahua a few times in the chest, and tears couldn't help but fall again, "You know how much your father expects you, how can you say this in front of your father?" Don't you know that if you marry now, you won't be able to study? How old are you! Won't Mom think about your life's events and make plans for you? What are you tossing around! β
As soon as Cheng Jiahua heard that he couldn't study if he got married, he really hesitated in his heart, but soon, Jiajia's bright face came to mind, he gritted his teeth, and said firmly: "Even if I don't study, I want to marry!" β
Mu Shi was stunned, she looked at her son blankly, she didn't know why the well-behaved and sensible child suddenly had such an idea, she thought for a while, rolled her eyes, and suddenly asked, "Are you in love with a girl?" β
Cheng Jiahua's expression moved, he glanced down at his mother, a shy look appeared on his face, and nodded lightly.
Mu Shi's heart sank, and it was really what he thought. She couldn't help but clench her teeth and clench her fists, but she still pretended to smile on her face, and asked softly, "Which girl is it?" β
Cheng Jiahua looked at his mother, hesitated and didn't open his mouth.
"If you want to marry, you have to go with your father and me to see what the family's character and threshold are, so that this matter can be settled, don't you say?" Mu Shi froze and continued.
Cheng Jiahua thought to himself, so he told his mother Jiajia's address, and said eagerly: "Jiajia is very good, she is a rare girl, I like her very much, her family is also very good, I have seen her parents." β
Mu Shi's eyes narrowed, not knowing that they had all reached the point where they had met their parents. She grabbed Cheng Jiahua's arm and said, "Okay, mom knows, you go to school first, and wait for mom to give you Zhang Luo about this." β
Cheng Jiahua hesitated and stopped, "Mom, didn't you say that you can't study if you get married?" Since I have made up my mind to marry Jiajia, then I will not go to school, and I will not read this book. As he spoke, he took off his schoolbag from his shoulder, threw it on the ground, and walked towards his bedroom, his back revealing a very decisive smell.
Mu Shi looked at her son's back blankly, and gradually felt hatred in her heart, she didn't know that there was an existence like Jiajia who confused her son to such a point. She recalled what Cheng Jiahua told her about Jiajia's home's address, and the anger in her heart swelled up, bent down and grabbed Cheng Jiahua's schoolbag, turned around and walked towards the gate.
Cheng Jiahua stayed in his room all the time, closed the door tightly, did not let people in, and did not go out himself. He pricked up his ears to the movement in the yard, wondering how his parents would react to his words. It's certain to be angry, but after being angry, you must make a decision, anyway, you have already made up your mind, you won't give up if you don't marry Jiajia, and you learn things so quickly, even if you don't study, can't you get ahead in other industries? Thinking like this, he gradually felt a little more comforted in his heart, and that blind confidence became stronger. While he was complacent about his ingenuity, he suddenly heard footsteps outside the door, and hurriedly lifted the corner of the curtain and peeked out. It turned out to be his father, I saw him dressed very solemnly, and went out of the gate, I don't know where he is going, is it possible that he is going to Jiajia's house to propose? Cheng Jiahua's heart couldn't help but pound, he couldn't help but smile, and began to fantasize about his life after marrying Jiajia.
Mu Shi came back before Cheng Tielong, her face was pale, and she was still clutching Cheng Jiahua's schoolbag tightly in her hand. When she was passing through the bedroom where Jiahua lived, she glanced at it with concern and anger, did not stop, and went straight to her bedroom.
Not long after Mu Shi came back, Cheng Tielong also returned. His face was even worse than Mu Shi's, and as soon as he entered the door, he went straight to Cheng Jiahua's bedroom, raised his foot and kicked the door open, holding the familiar stick in his hand, and threw it towards Cheng Jiahua's body. Cheng Jiahua already has expectations in his heart, so he doesn't want to be beaten by his father, in case he can't get out of bed after being beaten, then how can he marry this kiss. He nimbly dodged his father's stick and shouted, "Mom! Mother! β
When Mu Shi heard the sound, he hurriedly pulled Cheng Tielong's arm and shouted, "The boy and his father, there is something to say!" If you beat him like this, if it breaks, it won't solve the problem! β
"You know a!" Cheng Tielong shouted violently, "You know what this rebel has done!" He didn't even go to school these days! I also made up a lot of excuses to coax the teacher! The last time I got the paper back, I really thought he was the first in the age again, but I didn't expect it to be his own red pen to revise the score! The more Cheng Tielong spoke, the more angry he became, he raised his hand and hit Cheng Jiahua again, and Mu Shi quickly snatched the stick in his hand, she persuaded: "Don't worry, let's discuss this matter carefully, it's useless to be angry!" β
"You're going to me off!" Cheng Tielong pointed at Cheng Jiahua and said hatefully. Cheng Jiahua shrank in the corner and trembled, he didn't have the arrogant attitude just now, he had never seen his father so angry, and the only courage he had only barely lasted for a while disappeared. Mu Shi took Cheng Tielong's arm, pulled him out of the door, and whispered: "There is a reason why Jia Hua is like this, you can figure things out first, and then it's not too late to beat him." β
"What could be the reason!" The anger in Cheng Tielong's heart did not subside, and he scolded impatiently, "He is a ghost!" I don't know who broke it! β
"You're on the point." Mu Shi glanced behind her, and then took her husband and walked into the yard again, "Jia Hua fell in love with the girl of the family, and when she said this today, it was all for that girl." β
"How old is he, he knows what to look at!" Cheng Tielong didn't believe Mu Shi's words at all, "It must be a bad kid for somebody." β
"Ouch, really!" Mu Shi became anxious, "My son told me in person, I have been to that house to see it." The person is clean, but she is four or five years older, and the important thing is that her family affairs have been decided, and somehow, our family is obsessed with her again. β
"Four or five years older?" Cheng Tielong turned his head and glanced at Mu Shi, frowning, "Yes, Jia Hua is still young and doesn't understand these things, she must have brought it to her back." Now that she has already been married, she still has to pull our family, and she doesn't look like a girl from a good family. β
"Butβ" Mu Shi's face became sad, "The old people of that family all said that they had never seen Jia Hua, and their daughter was also well-behaved and clever on weekdays, and she didn't go out of the gate much. I told me about it, and he blamed me, saying that I didn't educate my own children well, and that I was catching up with his children......"
"What nonsense!" Cheng Tielong waved his hand and interrupted Mu Shi's words, he paid the most attention to reputation, and now when he heard others say this, he was really angry, "How can my son catch up with others!" Forget it, since the girl of that family has already said that she is married, it will be okay if this unfilial son starves him for two days, and when he turns around, he will know how ridiculous what he did today. Don't study hard, clean up this kind of mess! He glared at the room behind him, shook his hand and walked towards the bedroom.
Having said that, I didn't expect Cheng Jiahua to make up his mind, and from the next day, he locked the door of his room and refused to go out to school. Cheng Tielong was angry and furious outside the door, but it didn't affect his determination at all, and in the end he said: "I'd rather not go to school, I want to marry Jiajia!" If you don't marry Jiajia for me, I'll die! This sentence really knocked Cheng Tielong's heart of Jackie Chan out of the air, he was angry and disheartened, but there was no way to take this stubborn son. As a last resort, he had to invite the principal, hoping that the principal could persuade him to change his mind, but who knew that this Cheng Jiahua was really screwed as if he was clockwork, and he refused to relax at all. He was starved for four or five days, and he was locked up in the house without a grain of rice, without drinking a drop of water, and he did not know whether he was dead or alive. A few days ago, Cheng Tielong scolded him, and he still had an echo, and he couldn't even hear the sound in the past two days. Mu Shi was really worried, for fear that something would really go wrong with hunger, so he persuaded Cheng Tielong from time to time, and promised his son what was wrong, studying was always not as important as his life, first promised him, and then slowly discussed what to do about it. Cheng Tielong didn't let go, just scolded hatefully, "I didn't give birth to him to marry his own son, his talent is so good, study hard, there will definitely be a good way out in the future, you feel sorry for him now, you are ruining him!" Besides, I wonder how a sixteen or seventeen-year-old child must marry a wife, Lao Tzu was still eighteen years old when he got married! He's still in a hurry to get ahead of me, this isn't what a sperm worm is in the brain! β
Mu Shi can't help it, the father and son are both stubborn like cows, and they can't persuade anyone to come back. But if she was really allowed to choose, she would rather obey her son and marry her son to this family, as if she had watched him starve herself to death. So on the seventh day, when Cheng Tielong went out, she knocked on the door of Cheng Jiahua's room and shouted softly: "Jiahua!" Add birch! You open the door, it's Mom! β
There was silence in the door, and no one responded.
"Mom knows what you're thinking." As soon as Mu Shi thought of his son's miserable appearance inside, he couldn't help but burst into tears, "Mom promised you, Mom will handle this marriage for you, you open the door first and eat something, okay?" β
She said this five or six times in a row, and there was a little movement in the room, as if someone had crawled over and struggled to open the latch on the door. Mu Shi hurriedly pushed open the door, a stale aura came to the surface, Cheng Jiahua fell to the ground, his face was yellow, his lips were dry and several layers of skin, and he was looking at her with half-squinted eyes. This frightened Mu Shi, she hurriedly carried him to the bed, and asked Cheng Jiaji to ask for a doctor, and after working for a long time, Cheng Jiahua took a breath, barely drank a few sips of water, and then lay down on the bed and fainted. The doctor reproached: "Why did he starve him for so many days, don't you know how much damage it does to the body?" It's best to go to the hospital for a proper check-up, in case something goes wrong with hunger. β
