Chapter Seventy-Three

The men all drank, and after the dinner was over, Zhao Yiran did not go back to Tianxi Garden with Li Ting.

After all, Dong's mother is considered to be "coming from afar", and she will go home tomorrow, she is already a prospective daughter-in-law, and she must follow the man to accompany Dong's mother more.

The group came out of the restaurant, and by this time the two housewives were already holding hands and talking.

"Xiaofang's mother, why didn't you come here for a few more days this time? If you're busy, I can go out with you. Li Ting and her walked at the back, walking slowly.

Dong's mother sighed, "This time it's too urgent, there is still a mother at home who hasn't settled well, and I don't feel at ease if I stay here for a long time." Then he added, "After a while, when the affairs of the two children are busy, I will take care of the affairs over there and come over to stay for a few more days, and we will talk a lot." ”

The people in front of them did not dare to interrupt them, so they stood there and waited.

Li Ting also had to be a driver to drive her husband and son home, and when she saw the person in front of her stopping, she was about to stop the topic, "Okay, then let's keep in touch often." Let Ran Ran accompany you more today. Then he took his head to the side and said, "I still have to go to the car, go first." ”

Mother Dong immediately understood what she meant, let go of her hands that were folded together, and asked her to hurry up.

Although Dong Fang also drank some, his head was also sober. He also planned to reverse the car for Zhao Yiran and drive to the door before letting her on the road, but was vetoed by the woman.

Although no one checked drunk driving on a closed road, Zhao Yiran did not allow him to do so.

The man didn't have a problem, he didn't dare to do it against her, so he could only wait here.

The two families were divided into two roads here, one car drove back to Tianxi Garden, and the other car drove to Fenglin Green Capital.

There still seems to be a transparent and infinitely extendable thread connecting the two opposite vehicles, as if there is an intersection and as if there is not.

Li Ting sat in the driver's seat and took the steering wheel, her eyes were also a little greedy in the rearview mirror, and she always felt that she could still see the car that had long disappeared.

Then he sighed heavily in the quiet carriage, "Old Jiang, you say... Is this even if you get married? ”

Just now I watched my daughter's car driving farther and farther away from me, and I felt good about being a mother. This also means that Zhao Yiran will no longer return to Tianxi Garden unconditionally in the future, although it will always be her home, but it is not the only one.

She turned her eyes back to the road ahead, but she looked far away, far into the sky.

Everyone in the car knew what she meant by this, and even Jiang Eryang in the back seat looked up at his mother in front of him again.

Jiang Yaohua's palms on his legs kept rubbing against each other, thinking in his heart what he should say to make his wife feel better, "At the very least, marry someone we can all worry about." ”

This kind of thing, with family affection, it is difficult to have any standard answer that can soothe people's hearts. Jiang Yaohua could only tell Li Ting that when facing reality, everyone knew that this reality was positive.

On the other side of the car, there was also a short period of silence.

Zhao Yiran's attention was on the car, but his heart drifted to what Jiang Yaohua had said before leaving just now.

At that time, everyone was walking back and forth, and she was stopped by the people behind her.

Jiang Yaohua whispered to her with a serious expression, "Ranran, understand and understand your mother." ”

With this simple sentence, Zhao Yiran knew what he meant. At the dinner table just now, Li Ting had a stiff face and no expression for the first half of the time, although it didn't make the atmosphere so embarrassing, it must be different from her usual.

Zhao Yiran, as a daughter, of course she knows the reason.

And Jiang Yaohua, as a partner who lives with Li Ting day and night, naturally knows those inside stories. The call had been made the afternoon before, saying that the two families were going to have dinner together.

Since then, Li Ting has been unable to hold her mind, and she almost lost sleep all night.

To put it bluntly, my daughter who has grown up as a baby is about to enter the next stage of her life, and she must be unsuitable and reluctant to be a mother. Li Ting's heart is smaller, and she will definitely go to her heart whenever there is something.

Just the matter of the green silk bracelet before had already affected her somewhat.

Jiang Yaohua was afraid that her daughter wouldn't understand, and said, "Actually, selfishly, your mother has always been unwilling to face this matter." I think you're really married, then you're really leaving her. But we all know that she just can't hold things in her heart, but she still really rejoices in you. ”

Zhao Yiran also knew about it, but it was still difficult to sink his heart when he heard him pick up these words again. Just by looking at the increasingly heavy marks under Li Ting's eyes, you can know how she is these days.

"The main thing is that I'm afraid that Dong Fang and his mother will misunderstand, you find a chance to explain to them, I hope they can understand, and I will persuade her again when I go back."

Finally, he added a sentence not to let her feel pressured.

How could there not be?

In fact, there will always be worries about the joy of things. The law of conservation of energy never allows something to happen in a single way.

If there is good, there must be bad.

It's just that sometimes there are different proportions of good and bad, and people will ignore some of them.

And recently, Zhao Yiran, although she has been indulging in the joy of starting a family with Dong Fang, will always remind her of her original family from time to time.

Even if there is no water spilled by those old-fashioned married daughters, in the end, she is no longer just the daughter of the Zhao family.

After thinking about it, she planned to talk to Dong's mother.

Coincidentally, before she could find a suitable opportunity, Dong's mother found a direct reason for Dong Fang to leave the area first.

She said that she had something to say to her daughter-in-law.

At that time, they had already come out of Fenglin Green Capital and returned to Dong Fang's apartment.

The room was empty and quiet, and this was the first time they had talked together alone.

Zhao Yiran got straight to the point, "Auntie, I hope you don't take today's matter to heart, my mother she... It's just a little bit unaccustomed. But by no means has an opinion on you or Dong Fang. ”

Especially when she said the last sentence, she gradually raised her voice and wanted to subconsciously prove the authenticity of her words.

Li Ting's sense of alienation at the beginning, she thinks everyone here can feel it.

"It's okay girl, I can understand your mother's feelings." Dong's mother closed her eyes slightly and smiled, and the palm on the back of her hand patted her gently, "I am also a mother, and I know that my daughter is the treasure of the family." If I have a girl who is going to get married, I am reluctant to do so. I always want to be selfish and keep her for a few more years. ”

I'm worried that my daughter won't find a good partner, or a good in-law. These wrong steps are a disaster.

So rather, to avoid these.

"My parents like Dong Fang very much, so they are also relieved. Seeing you today, they will also be more assured... But I really didn't expect that you and Dong Fang would hide from us to set the house. ”

As the woman spoke, she raised her gaze slightly to coincide with Dong's mother's gaze. She was afraid that Dong's mother would misunderstand because her words did not reach the meaning, and she, including her family, had changed their attitudes and ideas because of this new house.

Unexpectedly, the kind woman still showed an indifferent smile, said a silly child, and said after a while, "Ranran, do you know why I like you so much?" ”

Or in other words, why want to treat you differently from other families' mother-in-law relationships.

Zhao Yiran thought about it, it was true. They had all joked before, thinking that in the future, they would only join forces to bully Dong Fang. Although she doesn't get along much with Dong's mother, every time, she always gets all kinds of warmth and accidents from this mother.

She shook her head and listened intently.

"Because I'm a woman too." Dong's mother said eloquently, these simple seven words are like a catalyst, which makes women have the desire to shed tears.

I don't know why, but she was moved and sad when she heard this sentence.

"I've also had a time when I'm your age, and I know that girls want to find a husband who loves them and spoils them for the rest of their lives... But I've been through unhappy marriages, and I know very well that it's not so easy, so I want my son to be a good man to rely on. ”

"I don't know if it's a kind of selfishness of being a mother, imposing her own ideas on her son." Speaking of this, Dong's mother even chuckled.

When Dong's mother was young, it was still very traditional. It's more about the words of the matchmaker of their parents, and they don't have a choice.

Dong's mother's father is a stubborn temper, and the whole family has to rely on him. When she was of marriageable age, Dong's mother did have a relationship with an educated youth, and the two had a good relationship. When the man came to the door to propose marriage, he was kicked out by Dong's mother's father.

In the end, there were many quarrels, and Dong's mother heartbroken agreed to her father to arrange another marriage, and since then she has cut off contact with the educated youth.

Heaven did not fulfill people's wishes, not long after Dong Fang was born, Dong's mother's father passed away. She finally couldn't stand the blood of marriage, and forced the man to divorce and live alone with her son.

Zhao Yiran didn't expect that she would be able to listen to the story today, but as a listener, she felt suffocated and extremely sympathetic, and even couldn't believe that the heroine in this story was Dong's mother in front of her.

At that time, it took a lot of perseverance and determination to choose to take care of your children alone. Inevitably, women admire her very much.

But more of a shame, his mouth was like a seal, heavy and tight, "I'm sorry Auntie..."

Unexpectedly, a few words of his own reminded Dong's mother of the sad things in the past.

"It's okay kid, it's all right! People will not go well in everything in this life, there will always be some gaps. But one generation is better than the next, and you will definitely be happier than your aunt. She looked at Zhao Yiran's depressed appearance, and even her old woman in her fifties was moved with pity, not to mention her son who was in his prime.

"I just said this to tell you that it is because of what I have experienced that I want to keep my daughter-in-law away from these. Let's not talk about the future, just now that you want to start a family with the man you chose, you won't have any regrets about this, it's already stronger than your aunt. ”

Dong's mother also said that those mothers-in-law who are happily married rarely have this kind of mentality, they only think that their children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, but only people like her who have experienced it will understand how much harm and fear a failed marriage can cause to women.

"You are such an aura girl, Auntie is reluctant to let you suffer these hardships."

Not as a mother-in-law, but as a woman, she is also unwilling.
