Chapter 180: Asking for Blessings
"You'll find out when you get home." As soon as Chen's mother was mentioned, Chen Chen's anger jumped up again, "Mommy's fire, I don't have the ability to eliminate it this time, you go back and extinguish it yourself." ”
When I met Chen's mother, I finally understood what Chen Chen meant when he said, 'You'll know when you go home'.
Chen's mother is a very maintenance-conscious person, although she has only lived a husband and children for decades, dealing with kitchen and housework all day long, but when she has nothing to do, her favorite outdoor activity is to go to the beauty salon, and most of the time when I am there, she must take me with her.
Therefore, I know very well the richness of Chen's mother's knowledge of maintenance, and even I, a young woman in my prime, sigh to myself.
But at this moment, Chen's mother was sitting in the room in a daze, with her eyes sunken, her face was pale, and her expression was still a little sluggish, and she was sitting in the room without saying a word.
My tears suddenly flowed down like a broken embankment, and I couldn't bear to continue looking, so I turned my head to look at Chen Chen, and asked Chen's mother with her eyes why she was like this.
Chen Chen lit a cigarette and said coldly: "Mommy asked me to find you, I lied to her and said that I couldn't find it, and she became like this." ”
"Chen Chen--" I suddenly lost my breath and beckoned him with my fists.
Chen Chen began to stand there like a log and let me fight, but later saw that my fists were getting denser and denser, and he couldn't resist it, so he had to protect his body with his hands, and glared at me with grinning teeth: "Ye Shen'er, you seem to have gone too far." ”
"Is Chen Chen back? Prudence, prudence--" Mother Chen in the back room heard the movement outside, turned her head, and when she saw me, she staggered up and ran towards me.
"Auntie, it's me!" I stopped beating Chen Chen, and hugged Chen's mother with red eyes, Chen's mother started to nag again while crying loudly, "You dead girl, you have disappeared like this once or twice, do you want me to live for a few more years?" As she spoke, Chen's mother became angry and slapped me in the face.
"Mom--" Chen Chen rushed forward and dragged me aside, and yelled at Chen's mother, "I said, old lady, what's the matter with you?" When I didn't bring her back, you cried and shouted every day for me to get her back, and now that I have brought her back, it will be a slap in the face when you see her, and if you don't want to see her, then I'll take her away now. ”
"Chen Chen, Chen Chen!" I broke free in panic and Chen Chen grabbed my hand, "Don't stop Auntie, I should be beaten." ”
"Chen Chen, stop me!" Chen's mother suddenly shouted, so frightened that Chen Chen and I stood still.
"Shen'er, come in with me, Chen Chen will go to the kitchen to cook." Mother Chen took my hand and said to Chen Chen viciously.
"Mom, I won't do it." Chen Chen also retorted with a stinky face.
"If you can't do it, you have to do it, this is your punishment, you think I don't know your little actions behind your back." After Mrs. Chen finished speaking, she pulled me into her room.
As soon as the door behind me closed, my heart rose to my throat, to be honest, Chen's mother was really angry, and she was more awesome than my mother.
"Get down on my knees!" Chen's mother threw a square blanket in front of me and said sharply.
I didn't want to, I immediately knelt on the blanket obediently, and as soon as I knelt down, I heard Chen Chen shouting outside the door, "Mommy, where is Mi?" ”
"Firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and dishes, all in the kitchen, find them yourself." Chen's mother yelled at the door.
"Okay!" Chen Chen was quiet for two seconds, and then his voice came into the room again, "Mommy, Shen'er has been living in a slum for the past two days, with four walls at home, and all she eats is green vegetables and tofu, so she is malnourished, and she must not be beaten, so you have to be more leisurely when you start." ”
"You dead boy, it's not all your fault, it would have been better if you had brought her back earlier, if you didn't go to cook, just come in and kneel together." Chen's mother continued to yell out the door.
"Oh well! Ye Shen'er, you ask for more blessings! "It's quiet outside the door.
"Don't laugh!" Mother Chen looked back and saw that my face was flushed, and immediately stopped it seriously.
I immediately corrected my attitude, and while deeply examining myself, I said to Chen's mother pitifully: "Auntie, I'm too ignorant, you have to beat and punish, I will never frown, in fact, I just want to wait until I find a job before going home, and I am afraid that you will beat me, so I don't dare to go home." ”
"Are you embarrassed to say that there is no job for you at home? Why do you always have to work for others? So is a little salary enough to support yourself? ”
"Auntie, this is just a process, every newcomer in the workplace is like this, I hope to try to find a professional job, this is called giving full play to my strengths, and my father agreed to it." I immediately moved Daddy Chen out.
"That's it, that's it!" Mother Chen waved her hand, "Let's not talk about this for now, you tell me, why don't you discuss such a big matter with us?" Do you think marriage is a play house? If you want to get married, get married, if you don't want to be together, you will divorce, you don't tell me, this is your attitude to life. ”
"Auntie, you have also seen it, Duan Ruochen is really unreliable, he not only cheated in marriage, but also had a leg with that woman before marriage, I originally reported that as long as he reformed himself, he would forgive him peacefully, but now he doesn't return at night, now I only regret not being at the beginning, if I had listened to you Aunt at the beginning, I wouldn't have ended up like this, and I ask Auntie to forgive me for my willful behavior!" I reviewed it deeply, profoundly, and seriously, saying that Duan Ruochen was useless, and that Chen's mother was full of tears.
"It's useless to say anything now, you're a hundred gone, anyway, I'm not optimistic about that person, but you were labeled as divorced at such a young age, how can you find someone in the future!" Mother Chen said bitterly while wiping her tears.
"Auntie, I'm still so young, I don't have to worry about getting married." I suddenly had countless little stars on my head, it turned out that Chen's mother was worried about this, after I figured out her thoughts, I quickly prescribed the right medicine, "I think so, I want to focus on my career first, as the so-called first start a business, and then start a family, you wait and see, I have found a job now, and when I save enough money, I will do a small business, and then the business will get bigger and bigger......
"Wait, you said you got a job, what kind of job are you looking for?" Chen's mother interrupted me.
"That's, that's--" I was speechless for a moment, isn't this just a perfunctory old man to make her happy, who knows that she cares about this sentence.
Chen's mother stared at me as if she knew I was lying, and I panicked and blurted out, "Yes, it's a tutor." ”
"Ye Shen'er ......"
It was originally a terrifying torture and punishment, but in my improvisation and interjection, it turned into a family of four sitting at the dining table frowning and eating Chen Chen's salty and half-cooked meals, while discussing the family where I was a tutor.
Of course, Chen Chen and Chen's mother disagreed, and Chen's father had a neutral attitude, but he said that today's children are not easy to teach, especially girls like I said, and girls are even more difficult to teach, and they are also college entrance examination candidates.
"Dad, are you worried that other people's children are not highly skilled, aren't you worried that our Shen'er level is limited and mistaken people's children?" Chen Chen didn't open which pot to mention, I also had this concern, and when he said this, my confidence dropped a lot.
"How many pounds and taels does your sister have, do you have no bottom in your heart?" Father Chen glared at Chen Chen and dropped his chopsticks, "I can't eat this dish, cook some supper at night." After Dad Chen dropped the words, he went to the study, leaving the three of us to look at each other.
"Mommy, is Dad praising Shen'er or hurting Shen'er?" Chen Chen stuck out his tongue and looked at Chen's mother.
"Auntie, Daddy means that Chen Chen's cooking is too unpalatable, and you can't be sloppy with your supper at night." I stuck out my tongue proudly at Chen Chen.
Just kidding, I naturally understood that Dad Chen was praising me.
I finally survived the blame of the divorce, although Chen's father's brows were furrowed for a long time, and Chen's mother's nagging never stopped for a week.
But this feeling of family care is really warm, even if it is frowning and nagging, in my eyes it is also a kind of expression of true feelings, it makes me turn the pain and hurt given by that short marriage into a driving force for progress, this warmth of family affection drives me, only to make myself better, in order to repay the care and touch they give me.
A week later, I was back in my little snail after a thousand instructions.
Chen Chen, I didn't want to live there, firstly, because he lived with Lin Xuan, and it was inconvenient for me to live there; The second is because I insist on wanting to be a tutor for a few months, and then find a professional job while working as a tutor, so that I can get a salary and not miss a good job, not to mention, my rent and deposit of 1,600 yuan cannot be paid in vain, but the things that were smashed by Chen Chen must not be used anymore, and it seems that I have to spend some more money to buy furniture.
Fortunately, although Chen Chen is violent, he is definitely a careful person, so when I sighed and felt sorry for the furniture that was smashed by him, I didn't think that he had given me a very big surprise.
That day, I was returning to the little house in frustration, tilting my head listlessly and thinking about how much money it would cost to buy another set of furniture, when I came across the landlady walking downstairs with a rent receipt.
"Miss Ye, you're finally back!" When the landlady saw me, it was like seeing a new world.
"Boss, you're collecting rent again!" When I saw the landlady, I grabbed her hand tightly as if I saw a savior, and asked eagerly, "Let me ask you something, can I still go to the tutoring job you mentioned last time?" ”
