Chapter 501: Good Times
Although this topic was brought up by Song Tingchuan on his own initiative, after Su Nan spoke up, he didn't speak for a long time, lowering his eyes, as if he had fallen into a long memory.
Su Nan didn't urge, just waited quietly.
It took a while for her to hear Song Tingchuan's slightly muffled voice.
"Remember my last essay about songs?"
Su Nan raised his eyebrows, "It's the one that only my mother is good in the world."
That one, Su Nan remembered.
I read it aloud on stage with her pursuit.
Song Tingchuan's essay, because of the delicate words and some details that are usually ignored by the mother's love, once made many people in the class red-eyed.
"Hmm."
Song Tingchuan raised the corners of his lips, "In that essay, everything is true, my mother, she is really very good, gentle, kind, but strict, she is the best mother in the world." ”
Su Nan looked at him with some envy, "You are very happy." ”
Song Tingchuan was silent again, the curvature of the corners of his mouth faded, and after a long time, he suddenly said something
"But she's dead."
Su Nan's footsteps suddenly paused, turned his head to look at Song Tingchuan, and even his pupils shrank.
Song Tingchuan tugged at the corners of his mouth, and spit out two words with difficulty: "Suicide." ”
From Song Tingchuan's mouth, Su Nan roughly understood what happened.
Song's father and Song's mother were originally a loving couple, and after Song's mother married into the Song family, she has always kept her duty.
However, the good times were short-lived.
Because Song's father was adventurous and determined to become an explorer, soon after his marriage, Song's father entered a relatively large expedition organization as he wished, and began his days of going out early and returning late.
And Song Mu is an ordinary accountant.
Just during that time, Song's mother's company had some trouble, and she had to work overtime until late to check the accounts every day, the company was far away from home, and Song's father had no time to pick it up, but fortunately, Song's mother had an enthusiastic male colleague who was in the same position as her, and she would give Song's mother a ride after the overtime.
Song's mother originally excused herself, but it was not easy to take a taxi if she got off work too late, she also wanted to go home early, and the male colleague didn't just send her one, he would take a ride if there was no car among several colleagues who worked overtime, so Song's mother agreed.
However, it was this send-off that sent out trouble.
Grandma Song is a very traditional woman, believing that women teach their husbands and children at home, originally she was very dissatisfied with her daughter-in-law going out to work and showing up, plus her son chose such a dangerous profession as an explorer, and her daughter-in-law did not follow her to dissuade her, but also expressed support, Grandma Song was very displeased with this daughter-in-law.
As a result, now that she is working overtime and returning late, she is still sent back by a male colleague, and Grandma Song begins to suspect in her heart, thinking that her daughter-in-law is having an affair with another man.
At that time, Grandma Song was still a middle-aged woman, with the traits that most middle-aged women hold
Broken mouth.
So when I met someone, I told people how my daughter-in-law was, and over time, the neighbors around knew that the daughter-in-law of the Song family was indecent.
It wasn't until later that Song's mother became pregnant.
The old man was happy to share the good news that she was about to hold her grandson, but the neighbor was also a brainless talker and asked
"Didn't you say that your daughter-in-law was indecent, how can you be sure that the child is your Xiao Song's?"
As soon as these words came out, Grandma Song's face immediately fell, and the seeds of doubt were planted in her heart.
Although pregnant, the company was really short of manpower during that time, and the company's boss has always been good to Song's mother.
And Song's mother is pregnant and still doesn't resign, in the eyes of Grandma Song, there is a problem.
