Chapter 37 third quarter

Just when Duan Xiao wanted to marry but couldn't, Xu Xin didn't want to marry. In the morning of the weekend, Du Yibei called Gu Xiaoying, and asked in bewilderment, "Why did you say Xu Xin disappeared?" Gu Xiaoying's first reaction was: "Are you guys having a fight?" "No!" Du Yibei was puzzled, "We're doing well!" "Okay..." Gu Xiaoying pondered for a while, "How do you understand this sentence?" "It's just that everything is running on the normal track. My parents think she is good, and her parents think I am good. My grandma said that we should register for marriage on New Year's Day. I..."

"Stop!" Gu Xiaoying interrupted Du Yibei's narration, "Did you propose?" "Yeah!" Du Yibei was very surprised, "She didn't tell you? I begged the day she went to my house to meet my parents!" "The dead girl is quite strict, don't tell me such important information, just gossip with me." Gu Xiaoying gritted her teeth and asked Du Yibei, "What's her reaction?" "She doesn't want to." Du Yibei felt aggrieved, "What do you think I'm not sincere enough? Why doesn't she always believe that I really like her? She always says we don't know each other well enough, so getting married won't delay us Gradually understand! She also said that mothers-in-law in the whole world are not as amiable as they have seen, and life will naturally be horrible... She hasn't entered our house yet, how can she make such a conclusion? There is no basis for this !"

"Fear of marriage?" Gu Xiaoying was dubious, "She also fears marriage?" "Never mind the fear of marriage or not, I can't find her now!" Du Yibei became more depressed. "Leave it to me, I'll enlighten her." Gu Xiaoying sighed, and took care of herself again, put down the phone amidst Du Yibei's thank you, and started dialing Xu Xin's mobile phone number—as expected, she After dialing it, Xu Xin shouted at the top of his voice, "What do you want from me?" "Where are you?" Gu Xiaoying wondered. "I'm participating in the book fair in City B." Xu Xin complained, "There are so many people, I'm exhausted!"

"Du Yibei called you, why are you ignoring him?" Gu Xiaoying was annoyed, "He was so anxious that he couldn't find you." "I don't want to see him," Xu Xin said in an impatient tone while walking outside to find a quiet place, "I don't want to hear his voice either. Whenever he sees me, he asks me when I'm getting married. I'm so annoying." "Hey, that's strange. You weren't the one you wanted to marry before?" "It's me, but I don't want to get married now." Xu Xin was straightforward, showing no entanglement at all, "When I think about that big family, where there are relatives everywhere, I get terribly annoyed. You Look at your in-laws are superb, my sister's ex-mother-in-law is even more excellent, and Du Yibei's aunt... Although Du Yibei is an intellectual, at best, I can only become a pseudo-intellectual. I can't stand the rules, I'll collapse just thinking about it..."

"I think you are the best!" Gu Xiaoying sighed, "You don't like those with bad conditions, and you say you don't like you if you have good conditions. After finally finding someone with good conditions, you both like each other. You can still think of so much, are you tired?" "Anyway, I don't want to get married now. I'm roaming on my mobile phone. You've talked to you more. We'll discuss it later..." Xu Xin turned around to hang up the phone while talking, but the moment she saw the person coming from the gate of the exhibition center, Xu Xin Xin was so startled that she dropped her phone on the ground.

So, from what Gu Xiaoying said, it sounded like Xu Xin had withdrawn the line, but only Xu Xin knew - her concentration was too poor, and she almost exposed her traces if she was not careful. Through the people coming and going, Xu Xin saw Jiang Manyu and Guan Tong. This is the second time she has seen these two people appear together. Looking at their expressions, a fool can feel the familiarity and tacit understanding—Xu Xin followed them into the lobby of the exhibition hall, watching them blend in. In the sea of ​​people, she was in a dilemma: Go back, I am afraid of meeting them, don’t go back, the task has not been completed... Xu Xin stood at the entrance of the exhibition hall, embarrassed and desperate at the same time - even Guan Tong like this A man can have both new love and old love, so what kind of love and marriage can she have confidence in?

Such depraved morality! Really unable to withstand the pressure brought by a shocking secret, after a busy day at the exhibition at night, Xu Xin returned to the hotel and called Duan Xiao anyway. Duan Xiao was surprised after hearing this: "Guan Tong? No way, maybe it's just a meeting between colleagues!" "That's too coincidental. Every time we meet, I can bump into each other. You can't doubt it at this frequency." Xu Xin sighed and tugged on the landline cord depressedly, "Even if there is nothing between them, does Gu Xiaoying know?" ? What would she think if she knew?"

"Since you don't know yet, just wait," Duan Fei pondered for a while, "If you are not sure, don't speak rashly." Xu Xin said yes, then suddenly remembered something, "How are you doing?" "It's still the same," Duan Fei said, "Jiang Yueyang's family disagrees, but he has the courage to fight. He said that he must first obtain a marriage certificate and cook the raw rice. But how could this be so simple without the blessing of his parents?" Can your marriage be happy?" "So what if there are blessings," Xu Xin sighed, "I get a headache when I mention marriage now. I really don't know if I step into the grave or be reborn."

"Don't burden yourself too much. Although I haven't set a good example for you, not everyone is as miserable as me." Duan Fei comforted his sister, "A while ago, Gu Xiaoying said something very reasonable—you Don't expect your mother-in-law to be equal to your mother, that's absolutely unrealistic. No matter how good she is to you, she doesn't know how to treat you if she hasn't lived together in the past thirty years. Maybe she thinks it's good, but you think Not good. If you measure according to your own mother's standards, 10,000 mother-in-laws out of 10,000 are unqualified."

"It's not all because of the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law," Xu Xin didn't understand. "Anyway, it's just fear. Some things, once you take a step, you can't take it back." "Why do you have to take it back? There are some roads that others can't walk well, so it doesn't mean you can't walk well, but if you don't walk, you will never know what is 'good'. You are not young, and work Hard work, do you really plan to live your whole life by yourself, without anyone to pour you a glass of water after you go home every day?"

"But how do I know that this person can pour water for me for a lifetime?" Xu Xin curled her lips, "This world is changing rapidly, everything is uncertain." "When you're 30, think about 30, don't think about who will pour you water when you're 50." Duan Fei said calmly, "I know now, I'm very happy today, and that's what makes me happy today." Just like, be happy every day, happy until death, that is a lifetime, to put it bluntly, you two are together today, and tomorrow will be together, and you will grow old together every day. So the most important thing is the present, the moment, if you like it, just Together, why do you think so far? Sometimes, the farther you think, the easier it is to worry about gains and losses, and it is easier to miss happiness." "But the more you do this, the more unwilling you are to give up halfway..." "How do you know that you will give up halfway?" "Too many give up halfway now," Xu Xin sighed, "Sister, you are so kind, Meng Xu is not satisfied, Little Fly bears the burden of humiliation, Brother Guan is still clingy with other women..." "Don't talk nonsense until the matter is clear," Duan Fei instructed, "Seal your mouth tightly, don't do it!" "I remember," Xu Xin sighed, then suddenly heard the phone ringing, and said goodbye in a hurry, "Du Yibei is chasing him again, wait until I get rid of him!" Xu Xin hung up the phone hastily, Duan Fei looked at the phone helplessly and smiled.She turned her head to look at Guoguo beside her, but she didn't expect Guoguo to be awake and staring at her. "Why aren't you asleep, Guoguo?" Duan Fei pulled the quilt for Guoguo, looking into his daughter's eyes and asked. "Mom, is Uncle Jiang coming tomorrow?" Guoguo asked. "Yes, Uncle Jiang came to pick up Guoguo to see the giant panda." Duan Fei looked at his daughter with a smile, but the eyes that looked like Meng Xu were only the reflection of her mother at the moment. Guoguo was happy, squinted his eyes and smiled, Duan Fei coaxed his daughter until she fell asleep, then Duan Fei turned off the light and went to sleep. It's just that she was thinking in a trance in the dark: Will she be able to get through this journey? The next morning, Duan Fei got up, took care of Guoguo, finished breakfast, and prepared the bottles and cans for the picnic at noon. As soon as they were packed, the doorbell rang.She went to open the door, and was not surprised to see Jiang Yueyang's smiling face. Seeing Jiang Yueyang coming, Guoguo was very excited, ran over from a distance and shouted: "Uncle Jiang, let's go!" Jiang Yueyang picked up Guoguo, pinched her little nose and smiled: "Has Guoguo had breakfast yet?" "Eat," Guoguo couldn't wait, hugged Jiang Yueyang's neck and urged, "Hurry up, uncle." Duan Fei stood by and watched, only feeling a smile appear on his face. During the conversation, the three of them went downstairs, and Guoguo was talking about "how about the giant panda" all the way, even Duan Fei wondered how she could become so cheerful and lively now, so when Jiang Yueyang suddenly stopped While walking, Duan Fei bumped into Jiang Yueyang's back because of distraction. Then, she heard Jiang Yueyang's weak address: "Mom—" Facing the sunshine, Duan Fei stood at the door of the apartment building, feeling a little dazed for a moment. It wasn't until Jiang Yueyang put Guoguo on the ground, held her little hand, and dragged Duan Fei to stand in front of a woman in her 60s, that Duan Fei changed his dull face into surprise, seven She smiled and said hello, "Hello, Auntie." Jiang Yueyang hurriedly broke the deadlock and asked, "Mom, why are you here?" "I went to your house early in the morning and saw you driving away in a hurry. I couldn't hear you calling a few times, so I found a taxi and followed." Jiang Yueyang's mother was expressionless, "Who knew you came here." "Since we met, let's go together." Jiang Yueyang warmly invited, "We're going to the zoo to see giant pandas." "Why are you looking at giant pandas when you're full of people?" Jiang's mother gave her son a hard look, then looked at Duan Fei carefully, and then looked down at Guoguo.Guoguo was still a little uncomfortable seeing strangers, but when Jiang Ma saw her like this, she immediately shrank back behind Duan Fei. Jiang's mother reprimanded her son again: "I told you to go home and you didn't come back. I just wanted to see what you were up to. As expected, you just ignored what my father and I said, right? Jiang Yueyang, listen carefully, although we are not a wealthy family, we still want face. I won't explain too much about everything, you can do it yourself." It is true that these words are not very clear-but anyone who can understand understands them, and there is no need to be more clear.Duan Fei didn't speak, just looked at the mother and child in front of him quietly, weighing in his heart whether he should go home with Guoguo now, or take Guoguo to see the giant panda by himself?Speaking of which, Guoguo has been looking forward to this weekend for a long time. No matter how far she can go in the future, she must not wrong Guoguo. It was Jiang Yueyang who got anxious first, and yelled a little: "Mom, why do you talk like that, why are you so shameless, I grow up so big, when did I lose your face?" "Jiang Yueyang, aren't you just embarrassing us now? How many times have I told you that getting married is not a trivial matter, you have to be careful, be careful!" Jiang Ma was angry, and she gave Duan Fei an angry look while talking. Just as Jiang Yueyang was about to speak, Guoguo unexpectedly stood up, grabbed Jiang Ma by the skirt, looked up at her and asked, "Grandma, don't you want to see giant pandas?" Jiang Ma was stunned. Jiang Yueyang was also stunned. Instead, Duan Fei bent down and told Guoguo: "Grandma is talking to uncle, Guoguo don't interrupt." Guoguo looked at Duan Fei, then at Jiang Ma, blinked, and continued to invite: "Grandma, let's go see the giant pandas together." Seeing that Jiang's mother was silent, Guoguo glanced at the snack basket in Duan Fei's hand, and after thinking about it again, she seemed to be cruel: "I'll give you two egg tarts." The adults were stunned this time. After a long time, I heard Jiang Ma sigh: "I won't go, I will go home by car." As she said that, she turned around and walked out. Jiang Yueyang was a little anxious, he held her back and said, "Mom, you've come here, why are you in such a hurry? Even if you want to leave, I have to see you off!" He gave Duan Fei a wink while talking, Duan Fei understood, and answered: "Auntie, it's too hasty to leave now, why don't we go after lunch together." Guoguo quickly and cheerfully answered, "Let's go and see the giant pandas!" Jiang Yueyang finally couldn't help laughing, bent down and touched Guoguo's face and said, "Guoguo, it's not to watch the giant pandas eat, but let's have lunch together after watching the giant pandas." Duan Fei smiled and reached out to touch her daughter's pigtails, Jiang Ma also lowered her head, and saw Guoguo was looking at her with pleading eyes, as if she was very afraid that her trip to the zoo would be ruined because of her departure—that's all. After hesitating, Jiang Ma was pushed into the car by her son and sat in the passenger seat. In this way, the soft-hearted Jiang Ma went to the zoo with the three of them, but Jiang Ma felt uncomfortable all the way. She couldn't tell where this awkward feeling came from, anyway, it was from top to bottom. uncomfortable. On the contrary, Guoguo was a little abnormally excited because she was about to see the giant panda. She walked and talked all the way, but Jiang Ma didn't understand half of the words. In the intimate communication with this little girl, I was very unhappy thinking that this child is not her son's seed, why can her son be so close to this little girl?But she had to admit that it was a miracle that her son, who had never had much family values, could show unparalleled patience with this little girl. Guoguo went crazy that day - watching giant pandas, playing with slides, merry-go-rounds, bumper cars in the children's park, having a picnic, and flying a kite after the picnic.The weather in autumn is getting colder, but the wind is not strong and the sky is blue.Duan Fei was caught by Jiang Yueyang's mother and wanted to "sit down and talk", so only Jiang Yueyang had no choice but to accompany Guoguo to fly the kite.While putting it on, he kept looking in the direction of Duan Fei, but he couldn't hear what they were talking about. In fact, there is no need to guess, what Jiang Ma said is always the same: "Girl, I heard from Yue Yang that the divorce is not your fault, but whether it is your fault or not, our family cannot accept it now. You are also a mother People, you should be able to understand my feelings, right? You said that when your Guoguo grows up and is at the right age, she will be in good condition, but she insists on marrying a divorced man with children. Can you rest assured?" This sentence accurately hit Duan Fei's weakness - yes, even if she doesn't consider anything else, as a mother, she is not willing to let her only daughter be someone else's stepmother. She couldn't say any rebuttals, so she could only listen to the old lady's ultimatum quietly, "Girl, don't dislike me for being snobbish, I only have such a son, and the Jiang family only has such an incense... I think he can't leave you, so I will wrong you and leave him." When she said this, her eyes were extremely sincere. Duan Fei looked into the eyes of the old man in front of him, and he didn't even have the courage to refuse. In this way, when they met for the first time, Duan Fei didn't even have a chance to explain, and it was a complete failure.
