"It's normal to talk about family and ask family. But when it came to this, Chen Guiyan lowered her head, and her mother secretly aimed at her with her eyes, obviously, what did the mother say about me behind her back.

"I'll tell you the truth, my wife died the year after giving birth to my son.

"Her mother flashed her eyes twice more and asked me, 'How old is the child?'

"'Twenty-two years old, eighty percent the same age as your Guiyan. ’”

- I see, this happened two years ago...... Qi Liyan said that she had been married for five or six years, did she lie, or did my father deliberately tamper with the time when "poverty alleviation" happened? But why did he?

"Chen Guiyan enrolled a year earlier than my Xiaohong, so she went to college a year earlier than Xiaohong.

"I know the purpose of her mother's question, is to ask me how long I have lost my wife, and after she asked this sentence, Chen Guiyan blushed.

"Isn't it ridiculous? Do you want to give me her daughter who has not graduated? Why? Seeing that I am a good person, or do you want to repay me for their help? It must be the latter, because in such a short time, they still can't taste my good or bad.

"It doesn't matter if they are helping the poor and helping the poor, because the newspapers and TV stations talk about the cadres of the government agencies going to poor families to help the poor and the needy. In the hearts of ordinary people, it is about a matter of course.

"I've done a little more than anyone else, but it's just the way I'm doing it, and nothing else, let alone a personal promise. What's more, I'm not someone I can't find a partner for some reason that I should be sympathized with - in fact, I don't get married, I don't have a reason to reorganize a family, and I can really be sympathized with, even pitied, but not on the table.

"Chen Guiyan's mother further asked, 'In the past 20 years, you have been a father and a mother at the same time, but it is not easy, you don't want to start a family again?'

After she said this, Chen Guiyan and her father cleared their throats at the same time, thinking that she asked too much, too much.

"Her dad was also involved, which I didn't expect, which means that if there is a discussion about this, her dad is also one of the discussants.

"What can I say? I said that I want to get married, and I have been married a hundred times, so her mother has to ask, why don't you get married? How can I answer? I have to use the reason that I usually prevaricate with others, to prevaricate her, that is, the work is too busy, and the work of our garden department is not based on a cycle of days, but on a cycle of years, and I have to count every day, every hour, and even every minute, and I am completely concerned about the work of our unit.

I said this to others, although others did not believe me, but they all involved me and should be with me, but this family of three, except for Chen Guiyan who hid her emotions deeply, her parents clearly showed that they did not believe what I said.

"I couldn't hold back, so I had to take out the words that I had fooled the person who intended to introduce me to someone, 'That son of mine has not been in good spirits since he was a child, although he did not get sick (Xiaohong had not yet made a clear diagnosis of mental illness at that time), but he has always worried me, and I am afraid of making trouble for others. ’

This reason obviously made Chen Guiyan and her mother sneer, and she was speechless for a while.

"However, Chen Guiyan put a dumpling in her dipping plate, pressed her head and lowered her eyes, "If you have a disease, what kind of mess can you find for others?" My parents are so seriously ill that even my brother's illness has improved, not to mention other diseases!'

"Her dad and her mom were careful not to look at her secretly, and I understood that what they meant to their daughter was: he has a neurotic son, and you dare to admit it?!

"I laughed, 'That's the case in theory, but I have to think about this factor, otherwise, wouldn't it be regrettable to start a family?'

"'If you leave me alone, you won't regret it.'" Don't say that your son is sick, even if you have that disease, I will admit it!'

This was an oath of hers. Why did she do this?

Her bold confession first made me overwhelmed. It was my turn to keep my head down, and I smiled and mocked her and said, 'You're a newborn calf who isn't afraid of tigers.' ’

"'Because calves have experienced animals that are more ferocious and ruthless than tigers. She was obviously referring to the illness of her parents and her own brother, and the insurmountable difficulties of life that followed. She is right, this kind of predicament is indeed fiercer than a tiger.

"I deliberately diverted from the words, 'These dumplings are delicious. ’

"'If you think the sauerkraut stuffed dumplings are delicious, I can wrap them for you every day!' Chen Guiyan is too spicy and too straightforward! I flashed my eyes and saw that she was pushing me aggressively.

"From then on, I tried to avoid eating time to go to her house.

"Once, there was something wrong with the unit, and I went to her house to pick up her father and change the dressing late. After changing the medicine, it was already more than ten o'clock, and when I calculated that I went to her house to catch up with the meal at this point, maybe she made me sauerkraut stuffed dumplings again, so she said to her father, "Brother, I know that there is an "Old Imperial City Hot Pot" near here, which is particularly authentic, and the mutton is authentic Inner Mongolia lamb, especially the mutton balls made are particularly delicious, so let's go there for a meal?'

At first, her father refused. I said, 'I've been with you for so long that you won't even invite me to a hot pot?'

"I gave them some pocket money, and I knew her dad had the money I gave him in his pocket.

When her father heard me say this, he couldn't speak, so he agreed to go to eat hot pot with me.

"Of course, how can I let her father pay for the hot pot? It's just a trick to avoid the noon meal.

"When it was the day of school, Chen Guiyan called me, 'Hey, can you send me?' I don't know when she stopped calling me 'uncle' and talked to me 'hey'. I have noticed this change, but I have not deliberately corrected this, and when I did, did I not deliberately make this kind of title clear? Zheng Banqiao said that it is "rare to be confused," and this aspect is probably included.

"I asked, 'What time is the car?'

"She said, 'Twenty-one fifteen. ’

"Oh, this point, I really have to let people send it, otherwise, a girl, let alone so far, will not dare to walk from her house to the highway. At any other time, I would have found all sorts of reasons to reject her, for fear of disturbing her heart. She has one semester to graduate, and this semester is very important, she needs to concentrate on writing her graduation thesis, she should have no distractions.

But she was distracted.

"Twenty-one fifteen car, twenty-fifteen to go, there is still an hour, is enough. ”
