131. As a woman, is it stressful?
01.
Long......
Long......
It was as if a crack had finally opened in the ice that had been frozen for 10,000 years at the bottom of the snow-capped mountains in the distance.
It's like a butterfly finally breaking open its cocoon and making a crisp sound in a field.
Everything in the world is in 120-frame slow motion, and all the time seems to be 10,000 quarters behind.
……
Finally, a voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Ah......h
"Who?"
The "ah" in the front also revealed a little surprise, but in the back of the word "who", Su Ma's voice became vigilant and uncertain.
"Hello Auntie, I'm Su Chen's ......"
"Girlfriend."
Su Chen added three words, and he cleared his throat: "We arrived in Lanzhou last night, and it was too late last night, so I'm going to go home to see you and my dad in a while." ”
Puff, puff, puff.
My heart was beating faster, and pumps of blood were pouring up my head.
After Su Chen finished saying this, he seemed to have experienced a slow-motion shot of time slowing down and everything reviving for a while.
It's not nice to say.
As a human being in two lives, Su Chen is really the first time to bring a woman home for the New Year.
What will happen next, there is no manual, and there is no pre-rehearsal, and he is still a little panicked.
But panic is panic, everything is ...... at the moment
Well.
It's still under control, it's controllable, it's controllable.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa."
Obviously, Su Ma on the other end of the phone seems to have experienced an indescribable change of mood.
She seemed to have just woken up, and when she spoke again, it was not at all the tone she had when she spoke to Su Chen just now.
"Oh, look at Su Chen, this kid, why don't you tell us about this in advance, hey, hey."
"Girl, are you already in Jincheng?"
"Tsk! Look at my brain, yes, you're already in Jincheng, then ......"
Su Ma panicked for a while, she also tried to sweeten her voice a little, always in a very strange tone, she used the voice of the heroine of the old movie in the seventies mixed with a little Jincheng dialect, held back for a long time, and held back a sentence: "Girl, do you have any taboos." ”
Maybe it's because I don't feel like I'm playing very well.
After saying this, Su Ma realized that she was like a waitress in a hotel.
hurriedly added: "Your uncle and I just happened to go grocery shopping, and we will cook a home-cooked meal for the two of you." ”
After adding this sentence, she felt more like a waitress.
Really.
Su's mother held the phone, she frowned, thinking about what my mother-in-law said to me in the first sentence when I married Su Chen's father, why couldn't I suddenly remember it when it should be used.
Su Chen took the phone: "Mom, let's clean up a little and come over in a while." ”
Su's mother: "Hey, okay, son, pay attention to safety on the road." ”
Su Chen frowned and looked at his phone, the gap between Su Ma's attitude towards herself before and after this time was too big.
……
After hanging up the phone, Su Chen slapped Zhao Qingren's ass lightly.
"Get up."
Zhao Qingren frowned and stared at Su Chen: "In front of uncles and aunts, don't make this habit of doing this." ”
"I'm not stupid."
Su Chen smiled: "Don't stretch out your feet in front of my parents and unbutton my shirt." ”
Zhao Qingren: "......"
She knelt on the bed and pulled out a delicately packaged box from the suitcase next to the bed.
"This is a gift I prepared for my uncle, and ......"
She pointed to another box in the box and said, "This is Auntie's, I don't know if it should be or not, the first time we met, it's not good to give it too valuable, so let's just say that the two of us bought it together." ”
Su Chen was stunned.
"It's not a watch."
Zhao Qingren glared at Su Chen: "No, I won't give that to the elders for the New Year." ”
"It's a paperweight for my uncle."
"I've heard you say before, doesn't my uncle like to write with a brush when he's fine."
"I bought a bracelet for my aunt, it's not too expensive, it's about a few thousand yuan."
"Is that okay?"
Zhao Qingren originally wanted to give Su's father a small antique plaything, but she heard that it seemed a bit taboo to send antiques, so in the end, after thinking twice, she sent a paperweight.
As for Mama Su, she wanted to send something expensive.
However, as a girl, especially when you meet for the first time, giving too valuable things gives people a very conspicuous feeling.
Therefore, it is best to be courteous and affectionate.
Su Chen hugged Zhao Qingren back into his arms and kissed her forehead.
"Why are you ......?"
Zhao Qingren only felt that he was going to soften.
This feeling of falling in love is too good.
"It's okay, I just think you're paying attention."
Su Chen touched Zhao Qingren's chin: "Wear thicker, go out and play in the snow all the way?" ”
"Huh?"
Zhao Qingren suddenly came to the spirit.
She scrambled out of bed, ran to the window to take a look, and then looked at the suitcase and began to struggle again.
There is a thick set of clothes, but it will look very bloated......
Su Chen helped her choose a set: "You can wear this set today, and then wear a thick one tomorrow, after all, the snow is not cold, and the snow is cold." ”
……
Here Su Ma hung up the phone.
For a moment, it was hard to believe that happiness came so suddenly.
The last time her son came home, she was worried about whether this kid had made a girl's belly bigger.
I didn't expect to come back this time, and I actually received a woman without saying a word???
When his father used to, he wasn't as good as his son.
How long has it been since you graduated?
A year and a half?
Wouldn't it be another year before I would have to be ready to be a grandmother?
Although Su's mother had imagined this picture countless times before, but when her son wanted to bring someone else's daughter to her for the New Year, she realized that there were some things that she had not prepared in advance.
Because it's never good to prepare.
It's like the departure of an old man in the family, or the arrival of a new person.
After Su's father got up early, he had already been outside for a while, he pushed open the door of the house, stood at the door and shook the snow off his hat and clothes.
humming and singing an old song, he went home.
"The fairy-like stewardess danced ~~ descended, and the ancestors did not finish their lives."
"Ouou, I haven't finished the road."
After putting down his hat, Su's father sat down on the sofa and began to wash the teacups and scald the dishes slowly, which was always a series of operations to get up in the morning and drink tea.
Su Ma hurriedly walked up to him.
"What kind of song is this singing, and the road that the ancestors have not finished in their lives, what road are they going to take."
Dad Su was stunned for a moment, and then said unhurriedly: "Look at you, in broad daylight, isn't this looking for trouble?" I'm singing a song. ”
Su Ma said angrily: "No, isn't this a compliment for your good singing!" ”
"Your fairy-like stewardess is about to fall, and you still have the heart to make tea here?"
Su's father shook his hand: "Airborne?" ”
Su Ma: "What's that?" ”
"Your son is back with his girlfriend!
”
"I arrived last night, and now I'm on my way, ready to come!"
Su's father: "Oh, my son is back, well, with ......"
After reacting, Su's father reluctantly raised his head.
"Is this news accurate?"
"It's true, that girl is still talking to me sweetly on the phone, hello Auntie!"
When Su Ma thought of that voice, she felt sweet, and she felt that it was so good, like a yellow warbler, and like a magpie calling.
Dad Su frowned and pondered for a moment.
"No wonder we haven't contacted us much this month, it turns out that we have been holding back a lot of work."
"Isn't it?"
Su Ma was excited while wiping the table.
Dad Su slowly rolled up his sleeves: "You can rest for a while, it seems that today, it is finally my turn to make a move." ”
When Su Chen was young, all men cooked in the house.
Su's father has good skills, steaming and frying is a must, but unfortunately he gradually stopped cooking, and Su's mother slowly exercised it.
Su Ma stopped the rag in her hand.
"No, you cook? So why am I going? ”
Dad Su turned around and walked straight into the kitchen, and a voice came from afar: "Probe again, report again!" ”
……
Half an hour later, Su Chen and Zhao Qingren walked on the streets of Jincheng in a huff.
At the moment, there was still goose feather snow in the sky, and the car glass and hood next to the road were already covered with snow.
The snow on the ground is not very thick, about three centimeters.
"It snows every day."
"It's quite snowy today."
Su Chen was holding Zhao Qingren, her eyelashes were covered with snowflakes, her cheeks were slightly red, and she was as beautiful as an ice porcelain doll.
Walking in the snow like this, my wishes are also beautiful.
There is no involution in the film and television industry, nor is there any scheming and deceit in the entertainment industry.
Finally arrived downstairs in the community.
Zhao Qingren's mind gradually shifted from the snow scene that he had just walked all the way to the next meeting.
Where did she still have the demeanor of racing at every turn when she met Su Chen at that time.
Now he looks like a quail.
But Su Chen knew that if she threw this woman back to Shanghai Tang, she would become the dominant female producer again.
Get on the road, knock on the door, and stomp your feet on the mat at the door.
Zhao Qingren was wearing snow boots, and when he stomped his feet, it was mud.
The high slope of the loess in the northwest, a snowy ...... That's right.
"It's coming, it's coming."
The door was opened, and Su Ma stood at the door with a pretending casual expression, her eyes looking behind Su Chen intentionally.
The heating in the house collided with the cold snap outside the door.
Su Chen got goosebumps.
"Come on, come in, silly boy, what are you doing outside, girl, come, come in."
Before Su Ma saw the "girl", she had already shouted for her to go inside.
"Hello Auntie."
Zhao Qingren gently pinched Su Chen's waist, and the two of them entered the house.
Su Ma saw Zhao Qingren for the first time.
Boy.
Just smiled directly.
"Young, it's so beautiful, come on, fast forward."
There was a loud noise in the kitchen with the sound of vegetables going down into the pan.
When he passed by the kitchen at the door, Zhao Qingren bent down slightly and greeted Su's father: "Hello uncle." ”
The fire in the kitchen flickered, Su's father pinched the handle of the pot with one hand, stir-fried upward, the fire rolled on the side of the pot, and he couldn't say anything deliberate: "Hey, okay, go in and sit down for a while, it'll be fine right away." ”
"Dad, okay."
Su Chen also showed a smile.
As a result, when Dad Su looked at Zhao Qingren, he still had a smile on his face, but when his gaze moved to Su Chen's face, his face changed instantly.
Su Chen coughed dryly and sat down at the table with Zhao Qingren.
It didn't take long.
Four hot dishes, four cold dishes have been served on the table, and the remaining hot flower rolls, and what kind of choppy work such as cutting intestines Su Ma will deal with.
Dad Su wiped his hands with a scarf, walked out of the kitchen, and sat opposite Zhao Qingren and Su Chen with a smile on his face.
"Girl, eat."
Zhao Qingren said politely: "Uncle, don't worry, wait for Auntie to come." ”
"It's okay, your aunt still has to be busy."
"We'll be out in a minute."
Dad Su didn't force it, he looked up at Su Chen, and sighed: "Oh, you are grown up now, you are really grown up, this girl will come back to celebrate the New Year together, and you won't say a word in advance." ”
"Test your parents' resilience with this, right?"
"Are you playing the emergency assembly in the army?"
Su Chen smiled: "Dad, how can there be, I don't know how to speak." ”
Dad Su looked at Zhao Qingren, how did he think of this girl, how he looked like a star.
"Girl, you are the same as Chenzi, you are ...... Actor? ”
Zhao Qingren shook his head: "Uncle, I am a behind-the-scenes worker, mainly responsible for helping Su Chen plan his work." ”
Su's dad smiled: "Oh? Okay, good, the behind-the-scenes workers are glorious, drinking? ”
Zhao Qingren glanced at Su Chen.
"Yes, I can have a few drinks with you."
Dad Su smiled: "Oh, such a good-looking girl, if you don't say that you are a behind-the-scenes worker, I thought you were an actor, you are not much better looking than that Fan Bingbing." ”
Su Chen smiled: "Dad, do you still know Fan Bingbing?" It seems that I usually watch TV at home. ”
"How did I not know? You underestimate me, don't you? ”
Su's mother came out with a flower roll and said, "Your father has seen Fan Bingbing and had dinner with Fan Bingbing." ”
Su Chen: "?? ”
For a moment, Su Chen even thought that the script had changed.
Could it be that Su's father is the elder of Huayu who lives in seclusion in the world?
Have you ever eaten with Fan Bingbing?
Dad Su said proudly: "Five or six years ago, I made an underwear brand, and that underwear brand was looking for Fan Bingbing's endorsement. ”
"Then at the National Franchisee Conference, I met with her."
"I was eighteen ...... that year"
Su Chen raised his eyebrows.
I heard Su's father continue: "That year, I saw a star for the first time......
Su Chen breathed a sigh of relief, he was startled just now, and thought that the gun version of "Let the Bullets Fly" had leaked out.
Su's father sighed: "Fan Bingbing's face is so beautiful." ”
Su Chen smiled: "Aren't you afraid that my mother will be jealous?" ”
Su's father waved his hand: "What kind of jealousy does she eat, I don't like Fan Bingbing, she was at the same table with me at the time, I looked down and glanced at her feet when I looked down to pick up things, that foot was ugly, not good-looking." ”
"Ugly toes, I don't like it."
Zhao Qingren looked back at Su Chen, with a smile in her eyes, she seemed to be saying, it seems that the matter of foot fetish belongs to genetic real hammer.
It should be regarded as the aesthetics of the old Su family.
Dad Su didn't think about it so much, and after a while, when the dishes came up, he immediately beckoned Zhao Qingren to eat quickly.
Didn't eat for a while.
Su Ma also went to the table and began to inquire about Zhao Qingren's information intentionally or unintentionally.
"Where's the girl?"
"Auntie, I'm from Shanghai."
"Shanghai people are good, Shanghai people are good."
"Girl, how many younger brothers and sisters in the family."
"Auntie, my only daughter ......"
"It's good to be an only child, it's good to be an only child."
"Girl, how old are you?"
The family was eating and chatting casually.
When asked this question, Zhao Qingren took a deep breath and finally came.
Before coming to Jincheng, she had thought about wanting to be with Su Chen, and there was no way to avoid the problem of age.
Instead of being secretive, it's better to tell the truth sooner.
Zhao Qingren put down his fast son and faced Su's mother: "Auntie, I am Chinese New Year's Eve one year old today." ”
Su Chen also took a deep breath.
According to his understanding of his parents, it is easy to say when he grows up, but when he was young, Su Chen was very strict.
I really can't figure out what their attitude is.
It was originally a lively meal.
After Zhao Qingren told her real age, the atmosphere in the room was a little quiet.
Su's father and Su's mother glanced at each other.
The two of them obviously didn't expect that the girl in front of them who looked so young was actually eight years older than Su Chen.
Su Ma was stunned at first.
Then she realized that she should have asked the wrong question, but when she turned her head and thought about it, she didn't ask the wrong question.
Whose house to eat, don't you have to ask how old the girl is.
"The gentleman is older than me."
"But I don't think so."
Su Chen said while eating, "Mom, eat vegetables." ”
"Hey, okay."
Su's mother picked up the bowl and took the dish that her son gave her.
Dad Su's face was serious, and he looked at Zhao Qingren: "Girl, in fact, we haven't considered the issue of age before. ”
"You don't have to think about it."
Zhao Qingren smiled, and she said generously: "Thank you, uncle." ”
Su Ma picked up the empty plate that originally contained the flower rolls, and then got up and went to the kitchen to get some more.
Zhao Qingren got up: "Auntie, I'll go." ”
"No, no, no."
"Oops."
The two of them got up together and went to the kitchen.
Dad Su looked at Zhao Qingren's back, turned back to look at Su Chen, and the two of them chewed the flower roll without saying a word.
"Outside this year, are you tired?"
Su's father stopped and asked.
"It's okay, Dad, I see you've lost a lot of weight."
"I'm on diet."
Su's father looked in the direction of the kitchen: "The girl is very good, cherish it." ”
"Okay."
Su Chen lowered his head and pulled vegetables in the bowl.
……
Su Ma and Zhao Qingren went to the kitchen and filled the dishes with flower rolls.
Zhao Qingren took the flower roll and was about to go out, but was dragged by Su's mother.
"Auntie?"
Su Ma grabbed Zhao Qingren's hand and tilted her head to look at her, her eyes were full of love.
"Silly girl."
Su Ma already had crow's feet in the corners of her eyes, so she looked at Zhao Qingren like this and sighed: "It's a lot of pressure." ”
"Huh?"
Zhao Qingren was stunned.
"This age ......"
Su Ma patted the back of Zhao Qingren's hand: "As a woman, the pressure is quite high." ”
"I don't know how to talk to my aunt?"
Su Ma laughed, her eyes were also crooked: "It's good, I think it's good, it's good that you are happy together, Ang." Let's go, let's get out. ”
As she spoke, she stood behind Zhao Qingren, put her hand on Zhao Qingren's back, and walked out of the kitchen.
Zhao Qingren felt the temperature of Su Ma's palm behind him.
Her nose suddenly soured.
That's what it feels like to be at home.
There are small calculations, understanding, empathy, empathy, and blessings.
This hot house, which was covered by heating in winter, reminded Zhao Qingren of the time when his mother was still there when he was a child.
……
