067 It's like a world away
When we got home, Xu Wei and Zhuo Yu were there. It's strange why the two of them didn't go to work?
"Did you two come to pick us up and not go to work? Then we're so happy. "I was helped to the side by Zhuoyu and sat down, and Xu Wei went to help my father.
"yes, we're waiting for you to come back. How's it going, has it been hard along the way? Xu Wei poured water for his father and asked while busy.
"It's okay, it's just that it's very hot and uncomfortable. What about Dad, what do you think? ”
"yes, it's too hot, we're a little unwise."
Zhuoyu didn't say anything, silently served us, pouring water and beating his back.
Because of the long distance, I had to take a good rest, so they didn't stay too long and left.
Juanyu took care of me to sleep, and then he quietly went out.
I couldn't sleep left or right after he left.
It seems like everything is a little unreal. I now have several identities, wife, sister, daughter, mother.
However, a phone call came, and my life began to break down.
The day after I came back from Lijiang, I went to work, I was tidying up at home, and when the phone rang, I picked it up and heard the other side ask, "Is it Miss Su?" I'm Zeng Jin, and I've met your mother. ”
It's a woman's voice, and you can hear the vicissitudes of life in the voice. I don't think I know this woman.
"Hello, I don't know you, I don't know how I can help you." I think it's strange that I never know anyone named Zeng Jin.
"That's okay, I don't know you either. It's just that you have a relationship with my husband. There was still a tone of pampering and unflattering.
"Your husband?" I was a little more confused, "Who is your husband?" ”
"My husband's name is Xu Xiaolian, and he is your father."
In the morning, I still went to work, I changed my clothes after he left, and sure enough, after a while, a black car was parked downstairs, and my phone rang at the same time.
I locked the door and cautiously stepped into the elevator, not knowing what was waiting for me.
I think back to yesterday's conversation.
"It's okay, it's okay if you don't know me, but since you're my husband's daughter, I think we should meet, what do you think. And I have something to tell you, about your mother. ”
I was shocked and surprised, as if I owed her a sense of guilt for unconsciously destroying their family.
"I don't think we have anything to say, you should hate me." I tell you the truth, no woman would allow her husband to have another woman outside and have children, right?
"Why should I hate you? Don't worry, I just wanted to meet you, because there are things that only your mother and I know that I think I should tell you. ”
I hesitated, anyway, I have to face it, so it's better to solve it all at once.
"Okay then, where to meet?"
"You wait at home tomorrow, and I'll send someone to pick you up."
I only knew that Xu Wei's mother had become a monk, and I didn't know that she was still powerful enough to find my home and contact me.
The driver wore a black suit, had strict rules, and respectfully opened the car door for me.
"Miss Su, please get in the car."
I sat in, and the driver closed the door and drove, and he didn't say a word the whole time.
I didn't care much, I was thinking about what Xu Wei's mother would tell me.
Since you are a monk, don't you just practice with your heart and don't ask about the world? Why does she still know everything about us?
The car drove very steadily, and at first glance I knew that it was a good car, and the performance was excellent, and I didn't feel uncomfortable at all when I sat on it. Dad once said that he and Xu Wei's mother have no relationship at all, and they have long been a fictitious couple, I just hope that she won't say something to slander my mother, saying that my mother has ruined their relationship.
The car drove for a long time, from the city to the suburbs, and for a while, and then stopped in a very remote compound.
"Miss Su, please get out of the car." The driver was still respectful and did not feel emotional, and came to open the door for me.
I carefully moved out, and there was an antique old building in front of me, without a name, and the two stone lions in front of the door were a little worn out because of their age.
At this time, the door opened, and a meticulously dressed middle-aged woman in a black housekeeper's dress came to help me.
"Miss Su, please, our lady is waiting for you."
I politely agreed, and walked inside with her.
As I walked through the hall, I followed her for a few moments, stopping in front of them. She knocked on the door to report, and a voice came from inside.
"Let her in."
It's the voice that called me yesterday.
The butler bowed respectfully and stepped back, and I pushed the door in.
When I went in, I smelled the smell of fragrant wood all over the house, and when I walked inside, Buddha statues, tributes, futons, everything was neatly arranged. This room is completely ancient, and the living facilities in it are very simple, except for the necessary beds, tables and chairs, there is nothing else.
"Miss Su, it's a pleasure to meet you." Before I could see anyone, I stopped hearing her speak, and I was startled by her.
"Hello," I quickly returned to normal, "I didn't notice you. ”
"You're just like your mother, and she was shocked when she first saw me like this." She didn't have any emotion, sat down at the table steadily, and began to pour water, "Do you want to drink water, this tea is not bad." ”
"No thanks." I thanked me politely, "I don't know what my mother was like when she saw you for the first time, I was worthy of seeing Xiao San, what kind of expression should Xiao San have?" ”
I don't know what she was looking for me, but I think my mother must have been scared when she saw her like I did.
She has a natural majesty and temperament, I can still feel her strength when I stand five or six meters away from her, a person like her should be born to stand in front of people and give orders.
"You are a child, you really deserve to be your mother's daughter, and her temperament is very similar to her." She beckoned me to come and sit with her, and I walked over and sat down cautiously.
"Your mother is actually a very good person, although I have met her once, but I can see that she is a rare good person."
"You know a person, how can you recognize them just by a one-sided acquaintance? It's like me, you see me now, can you understand what kind of person I am? "I am neither humble nor arrogant, I will say whatever I want.
"Your temperament is a bit similar to my little daughter, you must know my little daughter, her name is Xu Wei."
"I'm sure you, madam, are so powerful, you must have known that my daughter and I were good friends."
But she didn't speak, but laughed.
"Girl, you don't have to be so wary of me, I just called you here today to talk to you. And my old woman, Jane, was born and has long since ignored the world. ”
"Then in that case, how can you know where I am and what my identity is, madam. Or please tell me what you want to do when you come to me, and we will help each other and take what we need. ”
"Well, since you say so, then I won't beat around the bush," she said, putting down the cup in her hand, and slowly standing up and pacing, "When I met your mother more than twenty years ago, she was still a child, very young. At that time, my husband and I were not in a good relationship, and of course, our combined family needed to use each other. But your father was a wonderful man, and I didn't like him at first, but I was attracted to him as I got in touch with him, and I fell in love with him later. ”
Dad didn't tell me that his wife actually liked him, he just said that they were in a business marriage and had no feelings.
"But you know, once a woman falls in love with a man, she can't extricate herself, and the sad thing is that your father has never had feelings for me, it should be said that he has no feelings, he is only a family member who cares about me, not love. I've never loved someone that much in my life, but I don't know that once I do, I can't help it. I also knew in my heart that he didn't have any feelings for me, just because the children were maintaining the family. Later, he became obsessed with traveling, and he didn't come home for a month or two, and I knew that he was avoiding me, and I thought of a way to solve it, but every time I was advised by him not to bother anymore. Slowly, I became more determined by this refusal, and I felt that I had to conquer him in order to give an account to myself. ”
I only know that loving someone can be overwhelming, but I don't know that loving someone can also make people crazy and gambling, betting on that person's return, betting on that person's response.
"So you followed him quietly, and you checked him?" I expected that a woman would do anything to protect her own things.
"Yes, I followed him, I sent someone to check him. Where did he go, who he met, what friends did he make. She replied calmly, but compared to the madness of her story, her tone was now calm and quiet, as if she were talking about other people's things that didn't matter to her.
"Your mother came here to look for him, and I knew from the beginning that I was just trying to give them a little time to see how long they could develop. I originally wanted to use your mother as a capital to threaten him, I don't think the two of them should be sincere, your mother is just his greed for a while, and then I can blackmail him into complying with this matter, after all, the two of us still want face in the business world. However, what I didn't expect was that the two of them were so sincere. I watched them talking and laughing together, shopping, eating, watching movies, going in and out together, and I was very envious and hated at that time. ”
I looked at the person in front of me, she was the one who treated others as clowns and actors at that time, she silently hid behind, quietly observing everything, she quietly laid a net, waiting to watch the play.
"I was going to use their affairs to make your father infamous, but what I didn't expect was that your mother would have such a big heart and guts. She would rather leave him than let me ruin him. I went to find your mother, and on the way I thought of her as a fragile little girl, but after I made it clear that she was there, the decision she made, and the words she said to me, completely overturned my previous impression of her. ”
Mom is so strong, her personality is so tough, how can she let others threaten the person she likes, the only thing she can do is to protect that person, and to protect him, she must stay away from him.
