Chapter 13 What is the Parents' Intention to Marry?

One

On a sweltering day, my heart burned, and my mother didn't sleep all night. She didn't know what her daughter was thinking. Such a good portal, such a good husband and daughter, even said that they disagreed. The mother tossed and turned without sleepiness, she was thinking about her daughter, she was wondering why her daughter said she was unhappy, why she said she didn't agree? Is it young, is it ashamed to say yes, is it embarrassed to say yes or does it mean something else? What else is she thinking? Should she have ...... Oh, this is my cranky thinking, she is at home with her little sister every day, and she is accompanied by someone when she leaves the house, how can there be people of the opposite sex holding hands? Yes, my daughter is embarrassed, how can a girl be embarrassed to spit out a smile to her mother and say I agree? Thinking of this, I untied the knot in my heart, and then all my thoughts were swept away.

Besides, since Wang Maolin and Jin Hongyuan, two wealthy businessmen, decided to marry their children, the two parents have been called each other since they met, and their contacts have become more and more frequent. In business, in business, they help each other and are very emotional. At a time when the relationship between the two families was growing, Wang Shoudao studied in the United States and returned to his motherland in 1937 because he was an underground member of the Communist Party of China. When he returned to the motherland, he spread progressive ideas and organized the masses to actively resist Japan. When he returned to his motherland after many years of absence, he was furious with the decline of national politics, the economic depression, the hardships of the people's livelihood, and the misery of the people. With full of anger and responsibility, and with the great desire to give birth to a new China, he organized the militia and went everywhere to tell each other. The father saw that his son, who had just returned to China, was tirelessly busy with the bottom society, and said, "First way, what you learned has not come in handy?" Aren't the things you do the same as those who are not educated? ”

"Dad, it's different, I have new ideas and new medical skills, I can see through the country's diseases, I can prescribe the right medicine for the country, I can heal the country's diseases, I can reborn the country, and I can defeat Japanese imperialism."

The father laughed when he heard what his son said, "It's really whimsical, I don't know how thick the sky is." After two years of studying abroad, he said such a big thing, and he still gave the country the right medicine, the country to heal the sick, the country to be reborn, and the defeat of Japanese imperialism? Little people, you just have to live your own life and keep your own family business, outside things are not out of your control, and you can't control them. Dad advises you not to mess around outside, let alone be whimsical, I don't know that I am ashamed of my four or two pounds. Is the disease of the country something you can cure? You're not at home during the day, and you're a night owl at night, and I don't think you're tied up. It's good to marry a wife and tie you up. You have been running outside day and night since you came back from abroad, and we haven't had time to talk about what is in your heart. ”

The son knew what his father was going to say, so he pretended not to know and said: "Yes, Dad, I haven't had time to talk to you when I come back, there are some important things that I need to handle urgently, and I have been busy, and I hope my father will understand." Say whatever you want to say to your son! ”

The father looked at his son and said, "Let's talk about your personal affairs today, you are also older, and it is time to start a family." You are the eldest son in charge, marriage is the concern of your parents, you have become a family, and your younger brothers and sisters should consider personal issues in turn. ”

"Dad, don't think about me. Younger siblings, personal issues, whoever thinks about maturity first will get married first, don't affect them because of me. ”

"How? Everything has to be done in order. Recently, I made you married, and the woman is the daughter of your Uncle Jin, named 'Yingge'. I've seen it, it's good-looking, you will fall in love when you see it, and marrying our family is the face of our family? I'll make an appointment with your Uncle Jin on a good day, and you two will meet. ”

The son smiled when he heard what his father said and said, "Dad, I don't think about personal issues for the time being, and I will think about personal issues after the country is reborn."

When the father heard his son say this, he said with a gloomy face: "No, the man should get married, the woman should get married, you can't delay my grandson." You said that you will wait for the country to be reborn and then consider personal problems, who knows when the country will be reborn? Can you transform the country on your own? Joke! After studying in a foreign country for two days, I don't know how thick the sky is, and you don't think so much about it is not a praying mantis blocking the car - you can't do it yourself. After saying that, he stood up and paced and pondered for a moment, and said with a contemptuous smile: "It's a big joke, a big joke!" So whimsical, whimsical......" Dad shook his head and paced over and over again.

Seeing his father's attitude, the son said: "Dad, you are thinking about a small family, and I am thinking about everyone, and you are in a hurry to start a family, isn't it dragging me back?" To cure the country's diseases and reinvent the country is to awaken the people of the whole country and mobilize the strength of the people of the whole country. Of course, my personal efforts are insignificant. But I want to merge my insignificant strength into the rolling torrent of anti-Japanese resistance of the people of the whole country! ”

Hearing this, my father said angrily, "What kind of family? Everyone is not what you think about, you just think about your own small family, what kind of man is you calling if you can't keep your own small family? ”

The son said: "Dad, you should understand that 'the country is ruined and the family is ruined', right? How can a broken country survive? At present, we cannot think about the individual, and we can not think about the individual, but also about the individual's small family. We must put everyone, the country first, and the security of the country first, and we must all throw ourselves into the torrent of resistance against Japan! ”

The father listened quietly, thought about it again, and realized that what his son said made sense. Then he said shamefully: "I don't have any other thoughts, I just want to hug my grandson, and I don't want you to do any risky things." In addition, I have already contacted your Uncle Jin, you and the woman will meet and get married. ”

The son heard that his father had compromised, and he did not object to him, which proved that he was touched in his heart. Dad will not resist the anti-Japanese issue, all he thinks is that he wants to have a small family, and he wants to keep his family business, so as to tie himself. For his marriage, his father is still old-fashioned, old-fashioned, old-fashioned. That is, the parents arranged it, and the parents refer to the marriage. This old idea, the old concept, is really deep-rooted. If you don't obey, you will lose your filial piety; from, is against the will. Thinking about it, I am in a dilemma.

Two

The father is excited about his son's blind date. On a later day, he went to meet with the "in-laws." The two "in-laws" are very happy to see each other, there are endless words, there are endless true feelings, from the national conditions to the family, from the enterprise management to the sales of one-stop, from the people's hearts to the national shame and people's livelihood, their talk is extensive and abundant, but the key is around their own production and operation, is for their own indignation. The two of them said, and analyzed the business situation.

Jin Hongyuan, a family member, said: "You don't have to worry, the pillars are back, there is help, why worry about the enterprise not prospering?" ”

Wang Maolin said happily: "You think so, but you can't count on it?" If you don't return day and night, what can you do to help me? I'm not talking to you about letting the two children meet, and then get married as soon as possible, and the son will be tied to his legs after marriage! ”

Jin Hongyuan heard this as he wished, and said, "This is a good way." Young people are like glue when they get married, and they don't want to run out when they stick together every day. The two of them hugged their son again, grabbed their hind legs, and ran away from their minds!"

"Yes, you're right. We set a date for two people to meet, do you choose a date? Wang Maolin said.

"Or you say. Pick a double day, auspicious! Jin Hongyuan felt that the man was superior, and he felt that he was respecting his future in-laws by doing so, so he excused himself and let Wang Maolin choose the date.

Wang Maolin was also not polite, and said: "I will say it if you resign." He calculated: "Today is the third, fourth, and fifth day of the eighth month, and we will meet on the sixth day of the eighth month, and there are still three days." In addition, the wedding date is set for August 16. What do you think? ”

"Okay, the sooner the better." Jin Hongyuan was so happy that he said it was good. Thinking about it for a second time, is it a little too hasty, and my daughter must be prepared for a lifelong event? So he said, "Isn't the time too rushed?" Why do we have to prepare? ”

Wang Maolin asked puzzledly: "What to prepare?" If you have money, you can do everything, pay more, move more, don't you have the final say? ”

When Master Jin heard this, he hurriedly said, "Yes, it's reasonable." ”

The two discussed and settled. Jin Hong rushed home. He told the day of meeting, the day of marriage, and the family and the plate. And beckoned his daughter over and said: "Girl, Dad has set a date for you to meet the man, you have a preparation in your heart, go to the man's house to meet on the sixth day of the eighth month." ”

The daughter heard her father set the date of meeting with the man and said angrily: "Didn't I say it, I don't agree to this marriage, why do you still mention it again?" Why did you even set a date to meet? ”

When the mother heard her daughter say this, she was shocked. Anger swelled in his heart, and he was so anxious that he turned around. But on the surface, he still pretended to be full of joy and said: "Yingge, you really don't agree? Mom still thinks you're shy and embarrassed to say yes to that? The mother said to her daughter, and then comforted her daughter and said: "Yingge, we can't miss such a good family and such a good husband, you must listen to your parents, this marriage event is not child's play?" It's a big thing in life. ”

"Mom, I know that marriage is a major event in life, and because it is a major event in life, I don't listen to anyone, I just listen to myself, and I am in charge of my own house."

"You are in charge of your own house, you are in charge of your own decisions, do you still want to surpass your parents? Whose children are not married by their parents? Whose children's marriage is not in the hands of the parents? Whose children's marriage is not up to their parents? If you listen to yourself without anyone listening, don't you have no parents in your eyes? If you don't have parents in your eyes, that's unfilial, that's shameful, that's what makes people poke your backbone, and you won't be able to raise your head in your life. ”

The daughter was upset when she heard her mother's words, and she said anxiously: "Mom, don't say it, I have made up my mind!" ”

Three

The mother listened to her daughter's firm words and became anxious. But I feel sorry for my daughter, and it's not good to lose my temper. The father saw that his daughter's attitude was so firm, and he lost the words and smiling face that he used to love his daughter. His face was gloomy and at a loss. He was thinking about his majesty, he was thinking about his face, he couldn't even do his daughter's marriage, how could he go out and mingle in the future? How can there be the majesty of a man's husband? What's more, he and Wang Maolin personally decided their daughter's marriage, how could they regret and refuse? As the saying goes: "A gentleman's word is difficult to chase." "Can't you let yourself take back what you said? What's more, this marriage was personally visited by himself to propose marriage, and he was full of promises. Also, Wang Maolin and I are both well-known figures in the business field, how can my daughter say that she changes her attitude if she disagrees? The most face-saving thing is that since the marriage of the two families, he and Wang Maolin have called each other "in-laws" when they meet. And on the wine table, not only set the time for the two parties to meet, but also agreed on the wedding date. Isn't this a slap in the mouth? If he listened to his daughter's words and overturned the marriage, how could he get along with Wang Maolin again after he overturned the marriage? How to establish prestige and majesty at home and outside the home? Thinking of this, he angrily reprimanded his daughter and said, "How can the scheduled marriage and meeting date be overturned? Parents said that it is immutable, and we must meet in the sixth year of junior high school! Dad coldly shook off the words.

The father's cold words shocked his daughter's pampered heart. When the daughter saw her father's anger, her words were cold, as if she was about to lose her temper, she gave up the attack, was silent, hung her head and thoughts, and tears kept rolling to the ground. "What should I do?" I asked myself and thought: "The person I love is a young man, and I have already promised each other with my body, and the handkerchief is my own confession, my own heart, and my own token of love." Once a girl has a token to give, she cannot break the contract. The key is that he fell in love with the little boy, which no one can change. Thinking of this, she launched another offensive and said firmly to her parents: "Don't say anything about any of you, I am in charge of my affairs." ”

When Mom and Dad heard their daughter's words, they lost their temper. At this time, the father was furious and loudly reprimanded his daughter: "Your wings are stiff, dare to disobey your parents' orders, don't talk about the family business, the first talent is enough to make people applaud, your father didn't point you to the wrong marriage, didn't point you to the scum." To you refers to the talent, to you refers to the handsome, is the wealthy. How come you don't have self-knowledge? How dare you disobey your father's orders? Let me tell you, the marriage that your father has appointed you today is your only marriage. After saying that, he threw up his sleeves and left.
