Chapter 79: A Family That Looks Like a Soul, Cold
Facing a table of delicacies.
At this moment, He Yi'an, what appeared in his head in a trance was the lively scene of the brothers rushing to eat on the barren kang table of the Cheng family.
What kind of scene is that!
There are no seven bowls and eight plates of dishes, just a simple one or two vegetarian dishes, and there is a conspicuous space, which is the place to put meat dishes. The children clutched their chopsticks tightly in anticipation, and occasionally heard the loud rumble of saliva sliding down their throats. Like soldiers lying in ambush in front of the position, they are impatiently waiting for the horn of the charge, just waiting for their father to bring out the rare braised pork from the kitchen.
"Good food!"
Cheng Jianghe's eyes suddenly lit up, and he was about to move: "Wow, braised pork!" Give me a piece first! Give me a piece first! ”
Cheng Jianghai was so anxious that he jumped to his feet and looked at Li Xiulan for help: "Mom, I also want to eat meat, I also want to eat meat!" ”
Cheng Jianghe roared and stretched out his chopsticks, aiming at the target, but coaxed Cheng Jianghai in his mouth: "What are you anxious about, I'll give you a taste of salt first!" ”
Cheng Jiangshui rolled his eyes, knocked down the chopsticks in Cheng Jianghe's hand, and said angrily: "Cheng Jianghe, how old are you, you are still robbing Jiang Hai!" ”
Cheng Jianghe swallowed his saliva, pouted his lips complainingly, and said, "Just his belly, if you don't rob me, you still have to eat." ”
Cheng Jianghai was completely anxious, tears were rolling in his eyes, he pulled the corners of Li Xiulan's clothes, jumped to his feet and said, "Mom, my brother grabbed my meat to eat, my brother grabbed my meat to eat!" ”
"Fart!" Li Xiulan glared at her eyes and said indignantly: "It's not much, can you eat it alone?" ”
"I can finish eating, I can finish eating." Cheng Jianghai hurriedly patted his chest and promised.
Li Xiulan was a little angry, slapped Cheng Jianghai's little hand that was dragging him deadly, and scolded: "Get out, I can't give you one to eat after eating." ”
Seeing the children looking at themselves expectantly, Cheng Jia'an smiled and didn't say anything. Li Xiulan was really a little crying and laughing, so she could only pick up the plate and said categorically: "I'll divide it, none of you can grab it, do you hear?" Come, Yi'an will come first...... It's Jianghai's, huh! These rivers belong to the rivers! ”
Seeing that a plate of meat was distributed to the children in an instant, Cheng Jiangshui frowned and said, "Mom, you're done dividing it, you and Dad don't eat it!" ”
Li Xiulan glanced at her and said with a grin: "Your father and I are not so greedy, let's eat it quickly!" ”
Cheng Jiangshui hesitated to eat, Cheng Jia'an watched the children eat deliciously, and from time to time there was a sound of chirping, an old face was very happy, and he smiled stupidly on the side: "Hehe......"
The warmth of that scene was engraved in He Yi'an's mind at this moment, he stared at the braised pork in the bowl in front of him, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and his eyes revealed a thick longing, and he was stunned stupidly......
Du Wanling looked at He Yi'an in a daze for no reason, leaned over and asked softly, "Yi'an...... Yi'an! Are you okay? ”
He Yi'an came back to his senses, glanced at He Weiguo worriedly, lowered his head and said, "Oh, it's okay, it's okay!" ”
Du Wanling frowned and asked hesitantly: "Is it that you have been very busy with your studies recently, and your face is not very good!" ”
He Yi'an said lightly: "Mom, I'm really fine, let's eat!" ”
As He Yi'an silently lowered his head to eat, the surrounding atmosphere returned to the past, silent and depressing.
He Weiguo smashed his mouth, felt a little impatient with this family atmosphere, frowned and said: "If there is anything, just tell me and your mother, you are a college student, why are you always so silent when you come back, and the atmosphere is so weird." ”
Du Wanling's eyes sank slightly, and she dissuaded: "Hey, you just don't say a few words!" ”
He Yi'an simply put down the chopsticks and said depressedly: "Mom, I'm full, you can eat!" I'll go back to my room first. ”
Saying that, He Yi'an didn't pay attention to He Weiguo, who had a gloomy face, and walked silently to his room, Du Wanling called out in a panic: "You are just ...... Ay! ”
Turning her head, Du Wanling complained to He Weiguo with a dark face: "What are you doing here?" ”
He Weiguo threw his chopsticks on the table and said angrily: "What? I won't be able to say anything, so why am I staying here? Really, this kid is getting more and more unpleasant now! I don't eat it either! ”
After eating two bites, the family banquet was dispersed.
Everything that Du Wanling carefully prepared did not bring any warmth. The atmosphere of disharmony, everything you eat tastes like chewing wax, and even bitter like medicine. Looking at the table full of dishes in front of her, Du Wanling also put down the dishes and chopsticks, leaned back on the chair in frustration, and felt a burst of sourness in her heart.
The night is as cool as water, and the night is as dark as ink.
Until late at night, He Yi'an was still lying on the bed tossing and turning, and his heart turned into a pot of boiling water in the dead of night, which rushed to his mind disturbingly, washing away his tired nerves, making him unable to close his eyes peacefully.
It's like there's a stone in my heart, and it's hard to breathe. He Yi'an tiptoed out of bed and came to the living room to find water to drink, but suddenly saw Du Wanling coming out of the guest bedroom on the side.
Du Wanling didn't expect that He Yi'an hadn't fallen asleep so late, her expression couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, as if she had been discovered some secret, she stood at the door in a dilemma, and covered up in a panic: "Yi'an, why haven't you slept yet!" ”
"Oh, I'm a little thirsty, find some water to drink!" He Yi'an was stunned and asked suspiciously: "Mom, why do you sleep in the guest room, you and my dad ...... him?"
Du Wanling felt bitter in her heart, and her son still seemed to be keenly aware of something.
She hooked the ends of her hair around her ears and showed a wry smile: "Oh, it's okay, your dad and I both have our own jobs, and sometimes we have to work overtime from time to time, and we don't disturb each other when we sleep separately." ”
He Yi'an actually understood from his mother's lonely expression, and he nodded gloomily and didn't reveal it: "Oh! I know! ”
Du Wanling slowly stepped forward, touched He Yi'an's arm, and said gloomily: "Yi'an, if you can't do it, come back and live, you're not here, and my mother also thinks this home is too lonely." ”
He Yi'an lowered his head in frustration, looked at the teacup in his hand, and muttered, "Mom, you know, I don't like it." ”
"Hey!" Du Wanling sighed deeply and said faintly: "Things are in the past, people always have to look forward." You can't get over that hurdle in your heart, and it will affect your future life! ”
He Yi'an nodded gloomily and said, "I'll try my best!" ”
Du Wanling lowered her voice, with a bit of melancholy between her eyebrows, and admonished: "Not as much as possible, but definitely!" Listen to your mother, adjust your mentality, get along well with your father, don't impose resentment on your relatives, and hurt your own people! ”
He Yi'an replied lightly: "Mom, I know, I'm going to sleep!" ”
He Yi'an didn't dare to look up at his mother, so he answered casually and silently turned around and returned to the bedroom. Closing the door and sitting on the edge of the bed in trepidation, the suppressed pain came to my heart.
The fact that his parents were separated also had a great impact on his heart, he didn't expect that it was not only the Cheng family who was hurt, but also himself, and even his mother was also guilty.
Why is this the case? Do you blame yourself? So what can you do?
In the dark night, He Yi'an hung his head guiltily, inserted his hand into his hair in pain, and pulled hard. And Du Wanling stood outside the door sadly, listening to the suppressed sobs inside, and her heart was even more sad, and tears fell quietly......
In the dark of the night, there was not a trace of light;
The dim human heart does not see a glimmer of hope.
Time flies by......
