Chapter 21 Instilled by his mother with a pessimistic view of marriage
"I think the taste of this soup dumpling is okay, a bit like the one you took me to eat on weekends when I was a kid." Cheng Li smiled at the woman sitting across from her.
The woman sitting opposite was Cheng Li's mother, Li Xiaohui. She has a beautiful face, a gentle temperament, and a pair of beautiful apricot eyes, and Cheng Li's eyes are inherited from her.
Although he is 47 years old, he is not too old, and there are only a few subtle fine lines at the corners of his eyes.
Li Xiaohui smiled and said, "Do you remember the taste of that soup dumpling when you were a child?" ”
"Of course, I remember that I liked weekends the most." Cheng Li smiled.
After her parents divorced, she was awarded to her father, and it didn't take long for her father to marry Xiang Baozhen, and Cheng Li's life became sad.
Every weekend, her mother would pick her up and take her out to go shopping and eat. At that time, weekends were her most enjoyable time, but that happiness did not last long, and her mother later had her own family.
It perfectly interprets the lyrics of 'Dad has a home, Mom has a home, and I am left with myself, as if it is superfluous'.
Perhaps it is because of this that she remembers the pleasant times at that time so clearly.
Although it was just Cheng Li's casual words, Li Xiaohui's eyes still flashed with guilt.
"You said before that Xiang Baozhen arranged a blind date for you yesterday, what's going on? Tell me more about it. Li Xiaohui said.
Cheng Li felt that yesterday's events were ridiculous, but there was nothing that could not be said, so she told her mother again.
After Li Xiaohui heard this, her brows furrowed tightly, "She's really outrageous, but she's always outrageous, but why is your father also up to her?" ”
Cheng Li smiled, "What is my dad up to her?" Besides, after he gets sick this time, he may also be afraid that if I don't have a place to go, I won't be able to take care of Xiang Baozhen and Cheng Mo in the future. ”
After Li Xiaohui was silent for a few seconds, he said, "Cheng Guangyuan's glutinous rice dumpling-like character, I haven't seen you plan for you a little bit in my life, and I beat the abacus for his wife and children......
Li Xiaohui thought for a moment, "But you're also twenty-six, and you're indeed old enough to think about it." If you want me to say, it is because you have not made any movement in this regard, so Cheng Guangyuan will arrange you by Xiang Baozhen's thinking of 100,000 eight. ”
Cheng Li originally just planned to complain about Xiang Baozhen in front of her mother, but she didn't expect to be urged to marry.
It's a bit like moving a stone to hit yourself in the foot, and she said helplessly, "Then I have to find someone I like, right?" ”
Li Xiaohui lowered her eyes, and poked the soup bag in the lunch box with her chopsticks, "As long as the conditions are right." Like it or not......" Li Xiaohui continued in a faint voice, "It's all the same anyway after a long time." ”
As soon as Li Xiaohui's voice fell, before Cheng Li could speak, the sound of opening the door sounded at the door.
Cheng Li thought it was her half-sister who came back.
Then I heard a cough from the entrance, the kind of hoarse cough that comes after smoking too much.
Li Xiaohui's face changed suddenly, "Lili, why don't you ...... Let's go back first, shall we? ”
Walking in from the entrance was Li Xiaohui's husband Lin Lei. Lin Lei's eyes were bloodshot after playing mahjong all night, and when he saw Cheng Li, his eyes were suddenly a little unhappy.
"Uncle Lin." Cheng Li knew that Lin Lei had always had a lot of opinions about her existence, so she got up and prepared to leave.
Lin Lei made a straight face and said nothing. Cheng Li turned her eyes to Li Xiaohui and said, "Mom, then I'll go first." ”
"Well, be careful on your own roads." Li Xiaohui said.
Cheng Li walked out of the door, and the door had just closed.
Lin Lei in the room glared at Li Xiaohui with a pair of bloodshot eyes, "What is she here for?" ”
"Didn't do anything, just drop by and bring me some breakfast." Li Xiaohui said.
Lin Lei sneered, "What? Don't have breakfast at home for you to eat, do you want to eat what she brought it? ”
"She's my daughter!"
"yes, yes, you don't have to remind me over and over again that you have a daughter with another man!" There was a sudden explosion of anger in Lin Lei's voice.
Li Xiaohui had a subtle fear in his eyes for his sudden anger. When Lin Lei reached out to pull her, she obviously flinched.
Lin Lei looked at her meaningfully, "Your daughter brought breakfast to feed you, now it's time for you to feed me." ”
A touch of embarrassment flashed in Li Xiaohui's eyes, and then she was dragged into the bedroom by Lin Lei.
……
When she came out of her mother's house, Cheng Li felt a little uneasy, she didn't want her appearance to bring her mother any unnecessary trouble, so every time she met her mother, she either asked her mother to come out, or she would deliberately look for Lin Lei when she was not at home.
How do you know that such an inch has been bumped into today.
In the future, let's call my mother out to meet. Cheng Li thought so in her heart, so she took out her mobile phone and prepared to send a message to her mother, but before she could unlock the screen, a call came in.
The caller ID displayed on the screen has the name saved in her mobile phone - Dr. Zuo Han.
Cheng Li was stunned for a moment, and quickly swiped the phone screen to answer.
"Doctor Zuo? Are you done? Cheng Li said.
The man's textured magnetic voice sounded on the other end, "Hmm." Morning tea is closed, right? ”
"Ahh Cheng Li glanced at the time, "Yes, the market has closed." ”
She wasn't quite sure what Zuo Han meant, but she could tell that Zuo Han didn't seem to be too disgusted with her.
Cheng Li thought about how to speak, and Zuo Han's voice came from the other end, "Then what you said you wanted to discuss with me before, are you still discussing?" ”
I don't know if it's my own delusion, but I heard a shallow smile from Zuo Han's voice?
She immediately said, "Discuss! I'm very close to the hospital, come over right now, Dr. Zuo, you wait for me a little. You didn't eat breakfast, did you? At noon, I invite you to eat at Xiaoyuzhuang. ”
After ending the call, Zuo Han got up, walked to the side of the hanger, took off the dark green surgical gown on his body, and prepared to change into his shirt.
As soon as I took off my shirt, there was a knock on the door.
Before Zuo Han could respond, the door was pushed open.
"Teacher Zuo, I bought breakfast...... Yes! A young female intern stood at the door and saw Zuo Han take off her shirt, revealing her shoulders with beautiful and well-proportioned muscles.
She exclaimed, and then said shyly and timidly, "Hug, sorry, Teacher Zuo, Teacher Zuo ......"
Zuo Han didn't turn around, and said softly while putting on his shirt, "Go out." ”
"Ah, oh, oh, okay. Sorry, sorry......"
After she went out, Zuo Han continued to change her clothes before walking out of the office.
The female intern was still standing outside the door, and when she saw Zuo Han coming out, she followed him with a red face and said, "Teacher Zuo, you came to operate on Teacher Guo early in the morning, I was worried that you didn't eat breakfast, so I bought you some ...... casually."
