Chapter 180: A Dining Table

Wu Hou and Guo Xianda stayed at the top of the mountain for one night, and did not return to their home in the mountain, and returned to the city the next day.

Wu Hou's acceptance of Wu Daqi, which is indispensable to Guo Xianda's persuasion, after all, he is a person who has lived for most of his life, and he knows a lot of truths better than the young Wu Hou.

If a person lives for a lifetime, who can not have a home, since there is a home, it should be more complete. Although Guo Xianda dotes on Wu Hou, feels sorry for his daughter, and also has a disgust and hatred for Wu Daqi in his heart, but in order for his daughter, mother and son to have a complete home, he can turn a blind eye to Wu Daqi, as long as he can take care of his family in the future, don't leave this girl and go away alone.

After a night of persuasion, Guo Xianda was bitter, Wu Hou was silent all night, and there were thousands of thoughts in his mind, but he was never able to accept Wu Daqi, but Guo Xianda's last sentence was very powerful, Guo Xianda said, even if it is not for yourself, you have to think more about your mother, she has been suffering for so many years, isn't she just waiting for this day?

Indeed, Guo Sunflower's waiting, Wu Hou couldn't be clearer, he gave up halfway through his studies, and his mother was heartbroken, if the beloved came back, but he couldn't return to the family, this is an even sadder thing, on the one hand, he has been waiting for a man for 20 years, on the other hand, he is the meat of his heart, he worked hard to conceive a baby and gave birth in October, and he gave birth to a son after a trip to the ghost gate, the palms and backs of his hands are full of meat, Guo Sunflower is sandwiched in the middle, but it is the saddest one.

Wu Hou knew very well that in this matter, he must not be willful to his own will, for the sake of his mother, he decided to accept Wu Daqi temporarily. So at dawn the next day, Wu Hou stood up at the top of the mountain and said lightly, "Go home, grandfather." ”

Going around and around, and then walking to the mountains, the figures of the grandfather and grandson came out of the mountains again, and returned to the city, the time of the day, the city did not change, but the joy of welcoming the Spring Festival on people's faces was more vigorous, and nothing else.

at home.

Since Wu Hou walked out of the house, Guo Sunflower has not eaten a grain of rice until now, and he doesn't think about tea and rice, always sobbing in a low voice, and he is heartbroken. Wu Daqi and Wu Hou's grandmother stayed aside, no one dared to go away, the two heard Guo Sunhua's complaints from time to time, and when they heard her crying, the old woman felt uncomfortable, and then shed tears, only Wu Daqi, with a calm face, faintly with a trace of anger.

"You have no conscience, you have been a widow for more than ten years, I don't know how many people say me behind my back, scold me, I have endured it, but I worked hard to raise the child for him to be admitted to college, I hope that he can graduate and find a good job to get ahead, and now even this wish has been shattered, why do you say my life is so bitter......"

Guo Sunflower is like a "resentful woman" who tells about bitter water.

The old woman took her daughter's hand and comforted her, "Silly girl, don't cry, wait for Wu Hou to come back and ask clearly, see what's going on, doesn't it mean that you have to get money for doing things outside now? ”

The people in today's world, many things, have been accustomed to it, over time, they are accustomed to it, always feel that it is easy to give some gifts to the leader, get some money, how ridiculous this is, and a sad vice deeply implanted in the minds of the people!

Wu Daqi brought a cup of hot tea and handed it to Guo Sunflower, and said softly, "Sunflower, don't be sad, I will accompany you to Hangzhou in the New Year." ”

"What's the use of you going, can you let Wu Hou go to school if you go?" Guo Sunflower said with resentment.

Wu Daqi pursed his lips, and then said, "There has to be a reason to fire our son, did Wu Hou make any mistakes?"

"No way, although Wu Hou is naughty, he will never do anything serious enough to be expelled. Guo Sunhua still knows her son very well, she knows that although Wu Hou is stubborn, he has a degree.

There was silence in the room, and after a while, there was a few gentle knocks on the door.

Guo Xianda's voice came from outside, "Old woman, open the door quickly, we're back." ”

Before the old woman had time to stand up, Wu Daqi hurriedly got up, walked quickly to the door, opened the door, and saw Guo Xianda standing outside the door, with a frosty face behind him, and he didn't even look at himself.

Wu Daqi smiled and flashed away, "Dad, are you back?" Come in, it's cold outside." ”

Guo Xianda glanced at Wu Daqi with his eyes, and walked into the house without saying a word, Wu Hou followed silently, and after entering the door, he first saw his grandmother, and his grandmother cast a distressed look at him.

Then Wu Hou saw his sad mother on the sofa, his heart was distressed, and his face quickly changed from covered with frost to like a child who had done something wrong, and stood in front of Guo Sunflower nervously and blamefully, and said in a low voice, "Mom, I'm sorry......"

Guo Sunflower raised her head to look at Wu Hou, didn't say a word, stretched out her hand and hugged Wu Hou into her arms, tears silently across her cheeks.

Wu Daqi looked at this scene and wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know where to speak, and after struggling in his heart, he sighed silently and made a sad face.

There was still porridge boiling in the pot in the kitchen, and the old woman got up and went to the kitchen to look at the pot, and at this time, Guo Xianda glanced at Wu Daqi and motioned for him to follow him.

Wu Daqi followed Guo Xianda into Wu Hou's room, and after entering the door, Guo Xianda sat on the chair in front of the desk, asked Wu Daqi to close the door, Wu Daqi closed the door honestly, and then walked to Guo Xianda who was sitting in the chair.

"Dad, do you have something to say to me?" Wu Daqi asked aloud.

Guo Xianda took out a cigarette, and before he lit it, he thundered out and slapped Wu Daqi on the left side of his face.

Wu Daqi was stunned, glared at him and said in surprise, "Dad, why are you beating me?"

"Why are you beating?" Guo Xianda took out a lighter, pulled up the corner of his mouth and said, "I can't beat you in front of people, it's you with me, I can't slap you out of anger yet? ”

Wu Daqi touched the hot and painful left side of his face, his mind was subtle, indifferent, and accepted it silently.

Guo Xianda lit the cigarette in his mouth, just took a puff, and suddenly thundered again, and slapped Wu Daqi's right cheek again.

Wu Daqi was even more stunned at this time, looked at Guo Xianda in horror, and said in surprise, "Dad, why are you still fighting?"

Guo Xianda spit out a puff of cigarette and said lightly, "Wu Hou wants to beat you very much, but you are father and son, and your son can't beat Lao Tzu, this will be punished by God, but I can do it for me, so I slapped you for Wu Hou." ”

Wu Daqi's face turned red, and the dignified man of 1.8 meters was slapped twice by the little old man in front of him, who was far less tall than himself, but he couldn't even refute it, and finally had to whisper a word to himself, "You deserve it!"

"Well deserved. Guo Xianda had no intention of continuing to fight martial arts, so he leaned back and spit out fog.

Wu Daqi was like a child who had done something wrong, standing in front of Guo Xianda, he didn't dare to move, and he didn't dare to come out. The old man in front of him, he knew, when he pursued Guo Sunflower, he chased him directly to the mountains, and he was chased and beaten by this little old man in the mountains.

Guo Xianda, who leaned back in the chair, opened his mouth and continued, "I persuaded Wu Hou to come back, and he accepted you to come back to this home, but for the time being, he shouldn't be too kind to see you, and you can do it yourself in the future." I'm not helping you, if it were me, not only would I not let you enter this house, but I would also break your legs, but for the sake of my daughter and my grandson, I can spare you for the time being. ”

Wu Daqi nodded, "Then thank you, Dad, for your hard work." ”

Guo Xianda sneered a few times, so frightened that Wu Daqi unconsciously took a step back, Guo Xianda said again, "A man's responsibility, the first one must be reflected in his family, you are a very irresponsible man, you are not as good as me." ”

Guo Xianda's chattering education started Wu Daqi, and Wu Daqi stood there with his eyes and nose and nose, listening attentively to the advice, advice, and warning of this little old man.

After chattering for half an hour, there was a knock on the door of the room, and the old woman's voice came in from outside, shouting, "Old man, come out to eat." ”

Guo Xianda stopped talking, got up and opened the door and walked out, after he left, Wu Daqi's shoulders drooped like amnesty, slightly hunched, panting for breath, and the autumn clothes on his black back were already wet.

After cleaning up, Wu Daqi dared to walk out of the room, he looked at the four people who had sat at the table, there was a home-cooked meal on the table, Wu Hou lowered his head on Guo Sunhua's right hand, his eyes fell on the rice in the bowl, and then to the right was an empty chair, no one was sitting.

Wu Daqi suddenly became a little restrained, with hesitation and unnaturalness on his face, moved his steps slightly and moved closer to the table, and after walking to the edge of an empty seat in front of the table, he hesitated for a while, but still did not dare to sit down.

He didn't sit down, and no one said let him sit down, Guo Sunflower didn't say, Guo Xianda didn't say, and the old woman didn't say it, so Wu Daqi stood there embarrassedly, looking at the table of dishes made by the old woman, and Guo Xianda and Guo Sunflower, who bowed their heads and were silent.

Wu Daqi secretly complained in his heart, and said in a tired tone, "I'll go to the kitchen to eat." ”

After finishing speaking, he picked up a bowl of rice on the table, put a few chopsticks into the bowl, and then turned around and walked to the kitchen, his back was indescribable.

In the homes of the common people in many places, whenever there are guests at home, only men can eat at the table, and women who are busy before and after, but they have to hide in the kitchen to eat, this is a set of old exquisiteness handed down from feudal society, flooding in many gentry families in the old society, is a kind of discrimination against women, just like treating servants, in short, it is very statusless, and a way with insults.

And in this way, when this meal in this house today, it was reversed, but it became Wu Daqi walking towards the kitchen with a bowl, which is a little ridiculous to say, but what Wu Daqi feels like in his heart, maybe only he knows.

In fact, it wasn't that Guo Xianda's father and daughter and the old woman didn't want him to sit down and eat together, but what the three of them cared about most at this time was Wu Hou's thoughts, so Wu Hou didn't speak, and they all remained silent, even if Wu Daqi really picked up the bowl and walked to the kitchen, no one dared to speak first.

Wu Daqi held the rice in his hand, there were a few chopsticks on the rice, he didn't even clip a piece of meat, looked at the ground with sad eyes, and walked to the kitchen step by step, although it was only a distance of more than ten steps, and it didn't even take ten seconds, but he felt as if he had walked for a long time, a long way, long enough to be longer than his more than ten years of crawling.

The room was silent, the silence was terrifying, Wu Daqi was about to bury himself in the kitchen, and at this time Wu Hou's voice came from behind him.

"Let's sit down and eat together. Wu Hou shouted without raising his head, obviously shouting Wu Daqi.

The other three breathed a sigh of relief, Guo Sunflower smiled, the old woman smiled, and Guo Xianda also smiled, except for Wu Daqi, who stood at the door of the kitchen, one foot still hanging in the air, stiff there.

When he turned around, his face was already full of tears, but he couldn't hide his joyful look and tone, he nodded with excitement and trembling, "Okay!"
