Chapter 8 Discussing matters
The next day was Sunday, and early in the morning, I was woken up by my mother: "Xiaoyong, I got up and had breakfast. How old is he? Why are he still staying in bed like a child?"
I opened my confused eyes and grabbed my cell phone next to my pillow to take a look. Damn! It’s less than eight o’clock! Mom, today is Sunday, don’t you have to get up so early, right?
But I know my mother's temper. If I can't hold on, she will rush in and grab my ears. Anyway, she has woken up by her, so get up!
I yawned and slowly got out of bed and dressed, and replied: "I know, come!"
I put on a casual sweatshirt and put on a pair of pants. I dragged my slippers and opened the door and went out. My mother was lying on the dining table in the living room and dining room. I walked over and took a look. As usual, porridge and steamed buns were still there.
I immediately said angrily: "Mom, can't you change the style? At least you can get fried dough sticks or something? Do you don't feel tired of eating porridge and steamed buns every day?"
My mother raised her head and glared at me, saying, "Go and go, some food is good, you are picky about me? Go wash your face and brush your teeth, I will discuss something with you later."
I said wonderingly: "Discuss? What's the matter?"
My mother was so stern: "Go and wash your face first. Look at you who haven't woken up. I'm afraid you won't understand after hearing this!"
I had no choice but to say oh, and turned around and walked towards the bathroom. But I was even more surprised. What was my mother so serious that she needed to wake up before she could tell me?
When I walked into the bathroom, I just picked up my toothbrush and started brushing my teeth, I heard my mother ask me again: "By the way, what time did you come back last night? Why are you going home so late?"
I uh, and said vaguely: "It's not too late, it's not too late."
"Is that so? Who were you with last night?"
"Sun Dong, what's wrong?"
"It's Sun Dong again? Why are you always having sex with that playboy?"
"Sun Dong is my friend, what's wrong with him?"
"Oh, I said Xiaoyong, my mother didn't want to care about who you are friends with, but Sun Dong is a big flirtatious carrot who is restless when you see a woman. You are with him all day long, and he always gets hooked away by him. Xiaoyong, you are not young anymore, you should find a wife for your mother, right? Look at this family, since your sister got married and moved out, I don't know how deserted it is. My mother is old, so she is looking forward to..."
As soon as I heard the beginning, I knew that my mother would definitely start nagging in a long and long way. She hurriedly spit out the toothpaste foam in her mouth. I quickly said, "Dede, I know, I know, I'm just a wife. I'll just find one for you tomorrow?"
My mother sneered and said, "Just you? If you have that ability, can you make your mother anxious? Mom knows that you think I'm nagging, but you should really care about your lifelong affairs. Now you have a good job and your income is OK. Mom used to worry that no girl would like you, but now it's different. How about it? Mom asked Aunt Zhao from the neighborhood committee to arrange for you and introduce a girl to you, okay?"
I hurriedly picked up a towel and wiped my face randomly, walked out in a panic and said, "Oh my mom, your son is only twenty-five years old, why are you anxious to get married? Don't really go find him, I will consider it myself!"
Seeing that I was so anxious, my mother had to laugh and said, "Okay, okay, I won't mention this. Sit down and have a meal, and discuss something serious with you while eating."
I sat down at the dining table, reached out and grabbed a steamed bun and said, "What the hell is it?"
My mother sat down, and didn't speak first, but just looked at me seriously. I felt a little embarrassed, thinking that she wouldn't know anything about my company, right? It's impossible? She just said that I now have a good job and should be able to consider my lifelong affairs. So what exactly should I discuss with me so seriously?
I held the steamed bun in my hand, and for a while I didn't dare to eat it first. I was afraid that if I heard something bad news, a bite of steamed bun would choke me.
Sure enough, after a while, my mother sighed softly and spoke: "Xiaoyong, although our family is not very prosperous, except for your father who died early, all living people are healthy and life is still acceptable, right?"
I was confused and didn't understand what my mother meant. I had to nod and said carefully: "Well, what's wrong?"
My mother sighed again and said, "Do you still remember Aunt Qi who often came to our house when you were a child? Two days ago... She died of an emergency. Last night, I called her house on a whim and her daughter told me what I knew. Oh, your Aunt Qi was a classmate from elementary school and had always had a good relationship. I was sad last night for a long time. She had a hard life and had almost never lived a happy day. When she was very young, her parents both died in a car accident. Later, she was adopted by one of her relatives, but she was not cared for and taken care of, and was often bullied. When she grew up, she finally became independent, but was deceived by a man and hurt her feelings, so that she could not recover for a long time and lived a single life. Later, she met an old man.
Her teenage old man married him and formed a family based on the idea of living a good life. A year later, he had a cute daughter, which was considered a happy future. But there was an unexpected situation. Not long after, her husband actually fell down the stairs and died on the spot. He left them orphans and widows, and lived a miserable life again. It was not over yet. When her lovely daughter was fifteen, she suddenly became blind due to an accident and could never see the light of day. Your aunt Qi was so anxious that she ran all over the provinces and places, and saw all Chinese medicine and Western medicine, but she could not make her daughter's eyes clear again. Now, even she went there herself, leaving only a blind daughter, crying all day at home. Xiaoyong, what would you do if such a tragic thing happened to your friend's family?"
Hearing this, I seemed to understand what my mother meant. I put down the steamed buns and said hesitantly: "Mom, what do you mean is to take Aunt Qi's daughter over and live in our house?"
