Chapter 39: Mother's Expectations

Although I was seven years older than Yingying, at that time, I was actually a half-grown child who was not sensible. I know I was very naughty when I was a kid, and I don't know if I actually bullied her.

Speaking of which, I kind of understood why Yingying was so afraid of me as soon as she entered my house. I think I played tricks on her when I was a child, so she still remembers it vividly, right?

As for the naughty nonsense I used to have when I was a child, I reflected on it and changed my life when I grew up. People will always mature. Although I can't change the impression of Yingying in my heart all at once, I believe that with time, she will understand that I am no longer the bad boy who caused trouble all day and night.

So, I stopped talking to her about the past, but tried to comfort this poor girl whose heart was hurt as best I could. I hope to make her understand that here, each of us will treat her as if she were a family member, and she will never suffer any pain and hurt again.

The girl still seems to have a bit of a problem with me, basically what I say, what she listens to, and doesn't say anything. I didn't mind, knowing that this was just a temporary strangeness between me and her, and I believe that it won't be long before we get acquainted.

My mom came back after going out for more than an hour, and she came back with my sister and Liangliang. From now on, there will be one person living in the family, and as a member of this family, of course my sister will come back to see it.

In front of Yingying, my sister didn't say anything. But judging by her expression and my mother's look, I guess they must have had another fight on the way.

Of course, I know that my sister is a woman with a knife mouth and a tofu heart. If you really want to drive Yingying away, I don't believe she can do it. Sure enough, my sister saw Yingying's pitiful appearance, was silent for a long time, and finally sighed, went out and said to my mother: "Forget it if you come, let's work harder in the future." ”

So, our family of three held a meeting for this. My sister said that her father-in-law's illness needed to be served for many years. In order to take care of his elderly family and save money on the family, she decided not to go home for dinner every day in the future, but to eat with my brother-in-law's parents instead.

I know that this actually means that my sister has given up wiping the family oil, and she has to take on the obligation of taking care of and supporting the two elderly people over there. She is not financially well-off, and it will be even more difficult from now on.

Of course, my mom and I won't leave it unattended. As long as we can, we will try to help. Yingying came, just in time for Grandpa Liangliang to be seriously ill. In the future, we all know that it will be more difficult and difficult. My mother took out the 2,000 yuan she had saved in the past few years and gave it to my sister, saying that she was using the money to treat her in-laws. My sister was not polite, and she did need the money. Otherwise, when Grandpa Liangliang is discharged from the hospital, he doesn't know if he will be able to pay for hospitalization.

Not long after, my sister came home with Liangliang. My mom began to take Yingying to the bathroom to wash her face and feet, preparing for her to sleep.

Of course, Yingying and my mom sleep in the same bed, so that my mom can take care of her at any time. Luckily, it's still summer, so I don't need to prepare a quilt or anything. Add a pillow and blanket, squeeze it, and you can barely sleep.

Yingying is very well-behaved, and she has no complaints about my mother's arrangement. Soon, she slept alone in my mother's bed. My mom settled Yingying, and then she had time to talk to me alone. I was sitting in the living room smoking, and I saw my mother suddenly sitting in front of me with a smile on her face, looking at my face with a happy look.

I said inexplicably, "Mom, what are you laughing at?" ”

My mother smiled and said, "You kid, you still keep it a secret from your mother at this time, right?" Let me ask you, where did you get the 3,000 yuan in hospitalization advance payment to Grandpa Liangliang? Don't tell me that girl is just your colleague, right? ”

I...... I sweat!

I knew that with my sister's big mouth, I didn't even want to hide the money from my mother. But the question is, why do women always like to be self-righteous? Obviously, I just borrowed money from a colleague, but just because she is a woman, I have to think that I have an unusual relationship with her. Even if I explained it seriously, I still thought I was keeping it a secret and didn't admit it.

Alas! I'm too lazy to explain, but I'll have to make it clear at this point. Otherwise, with my mother's temper, I will be asked to bring Shi Shanshan home to meet her.

So, I had to say with a very serious expression: "Mom, are you listening to my sister's nonsense again?" The person who lent me money was really just my colleague! You know, it's not easy to borrow some money these days! I couldn't help it, so I finally had the cheekiness to speak to her. Fortunately, my colleague was a warm-hearted person, and he happened to have money to spare, so he agreed to lend me an emergency. It was such a simple matter, and my sister somehow thought that I had something to do with her. But she didn't want to think about it, what did she and I really want, why should I not admit it? It's not a shame to talk about a girlfriend! ”

My mom snorted, but believed me. Maybe it's because she knows her son, and knows that whenever I seriously explain something, it's mostly true.

It's just that my mother's face showed a little disappointment. He sighed softly and said, "Really? Is it really just a colleague? Alas, Mom just ...... I'm really happy for a while. Xiao Yong, you're not too young, when will you ...... Can you make your mom really happy? ”

I know my mom really wants me to have a girlfriend. Ever since I was growing up, my mom had been looking forward to the day when I would bring a girl back to the house. But I'm a person, not to mention looking for a girlfriend, it's a girlfriend with a female surname, and my mother has never heard of it. The son is sluggish and incompetent in this regard, can she not be in a hurry?

To be honest, I'm also a normal man, a normal man, who wouldn't want to have a girlfriend? But this kind of thing, you have to talk about chance, don't you? I'm not the kind of person like Sun Dong who has a way to have a female surname, and I don't know how to pursue a girl. Maybe in the future, when fate comes, I will know and fall in love with a certain girl, and then we will be together as a matter of course. But if I want to deliberately look for a girlfriend, I really don't have that ability.

My mom knows me so well, that's why she was so happy to hear my sister say this. That's why after hearing my explanation, she was so disappointed.

Seeing the disappointment on my mother's face, I could only say: "Mom, don't worry, I'm still young, take advantage of this time to work hard and earn more money, improve our family's life, and it's still too late to think about personal matters." I promise you that sooner or later, my son will bring back a daughter-in-law for you. ”

My mother shook her head with a smile and said, "When you have that day, maybe your mother will be buried in the ground." ”

I was about to say something, but my mom waved her hand and said, "Okay, mom knows." Now our family is in difficulty, and it is indeed not easy to find a partner. When our family has money, what kind of woman can't be found? Xiao Yong, if you can be retained by the new company this time, it shows that someone still values you very much. In the future, you must work hard and perform well. Only by getting the appreciation of the leaders can you have the opportunity to get ahead and make a lot of money. Mom doesn't need you to improve the life of the family. You keep the money you earn, and if you marry a daughter-in-law in the future, you will be more beautiful and decent, and your mother will have no regrets. ”

For a while, I didn't know what to say. Mother's love is so great, no words can express my feelings.

Soon, my mom went to wash and go to bed. I went back to my room, undressed, and examined the wound on my lower abdomen. Maybe it's because of my physique, although I haven't taken any medicine or nourishing food, but at the end of the day, the wound has begun to heal slowly, and it looks like the stitches will be removed in a few days to recover.

Thinking of my mother's instructions to work hard in the new company, perform well, and strive to be appreciated by the leadership, I can't help but think of Tang Xiaoru. Although Tang Xiaoru and I have reached an understanding, I don't think she will have any guilt for me in her heart, right? Wanting to be appreciated or even promoted by her is tantamount to a fool's dream.

I knew that if I was still working in a new company, I would never be able to get ahead. Being able to maintain the family with a stable salary is already the best result. If I want to improve my family's life and make my family happy, I have to think of another way and make another effort.

However, I don't have any skills other than fighting. What can you rely on to make a lot of money and change your family's life?
