Chapter 197: Purpose
Xia Jing "explained" why he came back so late.
Xia Song nodded when he heard this, he inexplicably pitted others, please eat something.
"Jingzi, I thought about this matter for a while, the fault is our family's fault, and it is also to blame your mother and your little brother for their bad intentions. But this is already the case, and I am helpless, we still have to keep it secret and deal with this matter. ”
The matter of the Xiao family must not be said, and then it will be another bloody storm, and maybe there will be a lawsuit.
"Dad, you mean we're going to tell this lie to the end?"
Xia Jing put the things in his hand on the table, and as soon as he sat down, he heard his father sigh, "Then what do you say?" You can't just watch the Xiao family come to the door and drag your little brother to prison. "And it's not the youngest son who did it, the culprit is the child's mother.
"Dad, I understand what you said. But the way things turned out was that I felt very uncomfortable.
When I came back yesterday and heard that Mingzi was beaten, I was very angry, and I didn't agree to settle it privately for 300 yuan, not only did I go over to Captain Lei, but I also went to Xiao's house in person and said a lot of cruel things, and also showed my attitude, almost completely tearing my face.
I haven't paid back more than 200 yuan, and I plan to take it to the city to see Mingzi's injuries, but now ......"
Xia Jing couldn't go on, and his face looked very guilty.
Xia Song also blamed himself even more in his heart when he saw his son's appearance, wiped his face and said, "Our family must not be able to pay back the money, otherwise we won't be able to fulfill this lie." Tomorrow, I will personally go to Xiao's house to find an explanation to deal with the matter, and then I will settle it privately for 300 yuan. ”
"Got it." Xia Jing didn't refute, and said later, "Dad, I heard Xiaolan say that Mom still wants the Xiao family to write a divorce letter, and the three hundred yuan also includes those dowry gifts back then, is there such a thing?" ”
Xia Jing not only knew about this from her sister, but also heard that her mother had asked a matchmaker to prepare several big girls for him.
He remembered that he had already expressed his attitude towards this marriage in the letter, thinking that his mother knew that he was going to marry Xiao Yao, and he came up with this bad idea when he was provoked.
"yes." Xia Song nodded, "Jingzi, the marriage has been going on for so long, and the two families are not in the mood to talk about it anymore, so forget it." ”
The more they pulled together, the deeper the contradictions became, and Xia Song was also tired.
"Dad, I listen to you. Things are like this, how can I be embarrassed to let the Xiao family marry their daughter again, but I have no face to face my dead grandfather and live up to his expectations when he was dying. ”
Xia Jing tilted his head to the side, stretched out his hand as if he was wiping his tears, but in fact, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and he observed his father's expression.
He knew that these words were a blow to his father and would sting his heart, but in order to marry the woman he loved and become a legitimate couple, he had to do it.
Besides, if the two families release their previous suspicions, everyone will be relaxed at that time, and they will not be like now, with a conscience for a lifetime, and their hearts will not be at peace.
When the son mentioned the old father, Xia Song really wanted to cry, his eyes were red, and he sighed vigorously.
"Jingzi, I'll go and make amends to your father."
Xia Song turned his head as he spoke, wanting to comfort his son, but he saw paper money and incense candles on the table.
"Dad, I just bought these, and I'm going to see grandpa. If there's nothing special going on at home, I'll be back in the army tomorrow. ”
Xia Jing said as he lifted those things up and prepared to go out.
"Jingzi, don't go, I'll go."
Xia Song stopped his son, and it was best for him to go to the grave to make amends to the old man, otherwise it would be too irresponsible. The last words left by the father at the beginning were that he didn't handle it well to achieve it, how could he blame it on his son.
"Oh, that's good."
Xia Jing handed over the things in his hand without hesitation, and personally sent his father to the gate of the hospital.
When his father left, he stood silently at the gate of the courtyard for a while, and then turned around and was about to go back to the house, when he saw his mother standing at the door of the hall at some point.
"Mom."
Xia Jing called her, Zhuo Yu nodded and said, "I'm sorry for your father for this matter, but I don't regret it for you." You stay at home for two more days, and when the matter passes, you will meet each other, and the boss is not small. ”
"Mom, if you really want to do it for me, you should respect my opinion." Xia Jing looked at Zhuo Yu and was dissatisfied, in his opinion, it was not only for him that he made this incident, but also because of his mother's selfishness.
He has expressed his attitude, since he knows that he is going to marry Xiao Yao, he deliberately blocked it, to put it bluntly, it is more for herself. I don't want to find a daughter-in-law I don't like, and I don't want to marry the Xiao family, it's all her thoughts and wishes.
"Respect your opinion?" Zhuo Yu felt that her son didn't understand her, and her heart was even more uncomfortable than a pinprick in her heart.
"Jingzi, you are young, and you can't understand many things. People like Xiao Yao are not worthy of you, in order to fulfill your grandfather's last wish, how can you be happy if you insist on getting together with her, sooner or later something will happen. ”
"Mom, I'm not here to fulfill my grandfather's last wish, I really like her." Xia Jing's expression was firm.
The person who had always been disgusted and unwilling suddenly changed his mind, Zhuo Yu was stunned when he heard it, and he didn't know how to answer.
"You, do you mean ......?"
"Mom, don't talk about it before. I couldn't understand my mind before, but recently I finally realized it. ”
Now that Xia Jing has no need to lie anymore, he shows his intention to marry someone into the door, which is what he needs to do at present.
"Jingzi, are you serious?"
Zhuo Yu has nothing to say, why is his son going to have such a big change?
"Mom, I've never been so serious. But things have come to this point, I don't force it, I can't regret marrying for life, I also admit it. ”
Making his mother feel guilty was also one of Xia Jing's plans, and after he finished speaking, he bowed his head and went straight back to his room.
Zhuo Yu looked at his son's back, and wanted to call him but couldn't open his mouth.
The son wrote back and said that he wanted to marry Xiao Yao, but in her heart, her son was to repay the old man's wish, and she never thought that he was sincere.
Xia Jing went back to the room and sat at the desk thinking about the situation on his father's side.
What I should have done has basically been completed, and now I just wait for my father to come to his senses.
Don't do it, Xia Song has already arrived at the grave of Old Man Xia, he was a little stunned when he saw the wine and cups on the grave, but after thinking about it, he only thought that it was left when Zhuo Yu burned paper before, and put it aside and began to light candles for his father to burn paper money.
"Dad, I haven't seen you in a long time."
Xia Song began to wipe his tears as he spoke, he was unfilial to be a son, and his father's last wish was not fulfilled.
"Dad, I have something to report today, the marriage contract with the Xiao family was withdrawn, and the two families are still in trouble, and it is estimated that there will be no way to communicate with each other in the future. These things ......" Xia Song choked up, "my son is at fault!" ”
