In front of the house, Zhan Jie said to Zhan Xi: "I guess there are guests today. Don't make too much trouble with your mother. My dad and I will advise her to ask her. What should I say specifically? I'll talk to my dad first."

"Oh." Zhan Xi responded, "I don't make a fuss, and if I make a fuss, my mother will make a fuss."

"Don't take the things Xiao Luo bought in first, wait until he comes to the door and get them yourself." Zhan Jie rubbed his sister's head, "It's okay, don't panic, there's a brother here."

Zhan Xi smiled and felt like she was never-before she was a good guy who supported her.

The brother and sister walked into the yard, and my aunt Chi Guixian was basking in the sun outside. When she saw them, she turned around and shouted: "Hey! Sister, Ajie and Huanhuan are here!"

The house was more lively than I thought. There were more than a dozen familiar or unfamiliar relatives in the living room, men, women, women, and young people all prepared to attend Yin Li's engagement ceremony the next day, and to come to their house for dinner that day.

Chi Guilan did not come out to greet them. She didn't even look at her son and daughter, but turned around and went to the kitchen to do things.

Zhan Qiang greeted his children, and Zhan Jie took his father's shoulder and went to the bedroom, probably to say Luo Jingyu.

Chi Guixian's daughter Duoduo is two years younger than Zhanxi, and is still a college student. She happily called her: "Sister Huanhuan! I haven't seen you for a long time!"

"Yes, I haven't seen it since the Spring Festival." Zhan Xi greeted her.

Chi Guixian grabbed Zhan Xi and asked in a low voice: "Huanhuan, were you hospitalized last time? Is it important?"

Zhan Xi and his aunt have always been close to each other and replied: "It's okay, I've been staying in the hospital for one night."

"Is your partner... here?" Chi Guixian's voice lowered, "That night, Ajie told me and your mother, but your mother told me not to talk, so I didn't say it."

Zhan Xi said, "He is here, staying in a hotel."

Chi Guixian felt that this matter was difficult to deal with: "Huanhuan, are you really going to have sex with that young man? Your mother said she was so angry that she couldn't sleep all night. My aunt couldn't understand, why did you find a deaf and mute person like such a good girl?"

Zhan Xi smiled and said, "Of course it's because he is a very good guy."

"But he..." Chi Guixian muttered, "Ajie said his job is pretty good, he has a good income and a wedding room, but he can't hear it... Are you afraid that people will say you?"

"Not afraid." Zhan Xi shook his head and replied, "My partner and I have many friends in Qiantang. No one who knows him says he is bad. If the relatives here are prejudiced against him, I can't do anything about it. I can't control what everyone likes to gossip in private. At worst, I can't go home less. Life is with him, for myself, not for my mother, nor for my relatives."

Chi Guixian said: "But..."

"Guixian, what whispers are you talking to Huanhuan?" A question suddenly rang, which scared Chi Guixian and turned his head away.

The person who spoke was my aunt. She was eating melon seeds, and there were two other female "sex" relatives sitting beside her. She looked at Zhan Xi with a smile and asked, "Huanhuan, your mother said you have a partner, why didn't you bring it back?"

My aunt and Chi Guilan have always had a very plastic relationship.

She gave birth to a son, claiming to be the only person in the Chi family who could pass on the family line. Unfortunately, her son was not good at studying and couldn't even get into high school. She only went to a technical school. After graduation, she worked odd jobs everywhere. After getting a girlfriend, she went home and asked her parents to buy a house for him in Tong County to get married, just like her second aunt bought a house for Zhan Jie's cousin in Qiantang.

My uncle was very stupid. He spent all the money left by his father to drink and gambling. They had no money to buy a house and even came to ask Chi Guilan for borrowing money. Chi Guilan borrowed 20,000 yuan, and everyone told everyone that this matter was well known. My aunt was very angry when she lost face and always wanted to find an opportunity to see Chi Guilan's joke.

Zhan Jie's divorce, and her aunt was already gloating. Chi Guilan's condition after returning from Qiantang last time made her curious.

During that time, Chi Guilan was very angry. She arrested someone and complained that her daughter was ignorant and unfilial. She was caught by the door, but she was beaten to death without telling the specific reason. My aunt asked Chi Guixian, and Chi Guixian was vague and could only be foolish.

Everyone guessed that Zhan Xi had found a partner with bad conditions?

This is so strange! After all, Chi Guilan has always claimed that her daughter can marry a very good family.

At this time, my aunt looked at Zhan Xi and was waiting for her answer. Before Zhan Xi could speak, Chi Guilan rushed out of the kitchen and said loudly: "Does she dare to bring it back?!"

Everyone in the room looked at her, and my aunt asked sarcastically: "Why don't you dare to bring it back? Huanhuan's partner must be as outstanding as her. We have been waiting for this day to see this rich son-in-law!"

Chi Guilan looked at her daughter from afar and said coldly: "Let her tell herself, what kind of person she has found. I have no shame to say this anyway. I didn't expect this. After going to college, I couldn't wake up. I was ashamed of finding such a person!"

Chi Guixian said, "Sister, don't say that..."

"Shut up!" Facing many relatives, Chi Guilan vented so well, and looked at Zhan Xi again, "I kept telling me that I had a lot of care and had to decide my own affairs, saying that I was not a child, and saying that I didn't understand what she wanted. I don't understand! How do I understand? Find a man like this, even if I have three brains that I can't understand!"

Zhan Xi looked at her mother calmly. Her tone when she spoke had not changed for decades. It was so strange. Why didn’t she think there was something wrong before?

My aunt became even more excited and stopped eating melon seeds. She asked, "Sister Guilan, don't be angry, what's going on? Tell us, what kind of partner did Huanhuan find?"

Chi Guilan sneered: "I said it, I have no shame to say it, I'm ashamed! You want to know that she can tell herself! She dare not bring it back even if she brings it back. See if she can say it if she doesn't say it!"

My aunt's eyes flashed and she looked at Zhan Xi: "Huanhuan? Your partner... um?"

Zhanxi: "…"

Zhan Qiang and Zhan Jie just came out of the room and saw the tense situation in the living room. Zhan Jie exploded his forehead and guessed that his mother probably had fired. Just as he was about to persuade him, he heard Zhan Xi's voice.

His young sister was standing in the living room, beside her a complicated-looking aunt. Zhan Xi looked at Chi Guilan and then at her aunt. Her eyes passed by a group of people, and her tone of speech was not at all turbulent:

"I have a boyfriend, seventeen years old, from Qiantang. I am an artist and very talented. I am very kind and considerate to me, very serious about work, and a kind and kind boy. I am 1.85 meters tall and 86 meters tall. I have a wedding house in Qiantang, 140 square meters, and my annual income is about 400,000 yuan."

Auntie and other relatives: “…”

Duoduo looked envious: "Wow!"

"Well..." Zhan Xi smiled slightly, "My mother thinks it's impossible to say, it should be... My boyfriend is deaf, he can't hear the voice and doesn't speak. I use sign language to communicate with him."

That's what she said?!

Chi Guilan glared at her daughter, thinking of the sign language books she saw in Zhanxi's room, and she wanted to go back and tear them apart.

My aunt and other relatives opened their eyes wide in surprise and their lips slightly opened.

They were both surprised that Zhan Xi had found a deaf and mute boyfriend, and that she was so calm that she was not caring at all, but also seemed to have pride in her tone.

Zhan Xi looked at Chi Guilan: "Mom, I don't understand what it is impossible to say. My boyfriend is a very good person. I like him very much. Brother and dad know. They all accepted him. You don't understand him at all. Why did you deny him first?"

"I will never accept him!" Chi Guilan shouted in anger, "I told you that if you choose him, there will be no more mother like me! I don't want you to be together!"

Chi Guixian walked over and pulled her: "Sister, that young man is actually..."

"Shut up!" Chi Guilan glared at her, "What does it have to do with my daughter if I teach you a lesson?"

Chi Guixian didn't dare to say anything anymore. Duoduo was so angry that he pulled his mother aside and whispered: "Mom, don't worry about auntie, she has always been ill in her brain."

Chi Guilan slowly walked to Zhanxi and looked at her like a stranger, but she didn't know that Zhanxi felt the same way in his heart - this woman who was once so close to her and made her so dependent was her biological mother, and now she looked like a stranger in her eyes.

Chi Guilan's voice trembled: "From your birth to twenty years now, how much has my mother done for you? How much effort has she spent to cultivate you? Is it my mother wrong to make friends? Is it my mother wrong to encourage you to take the postgraduate entrance examination and civil servant exams? Is it my mother wrong to hope you find a decent and stable job? Is it my mother wrong to ask you to find a partner with good conditions to fall in love and get married, and not be treated lightly by the in-laws?!"

There was a silence in the living room, with only Chi Guilan's old voice, "This is your reward to your mother? If you find a deaf and mute person, you just want to piss me to death, right? You just think I've lived too long and want me to die sooner, right?"

Zhan Xi admired himself more and more, and he was not panicked at all in such a situation. My mother's words were always those few words. At first glance, she really used good intentions. The ones she could deceive were those who didn't know the details behind them.

But this time, Zhan Xi was reluctant to embellish Taiping again and said, "You didn't ask me to make friends, you were completely interfering with how I made friends. You peeked at my diary, searched my schoolbag, and flipped through my phone. As long as it was someone you didn't like, I would not allow me to date the other party, regardless of whether the other party would be hurt by you, rolled around, go to school, make trouble at other people's house, call to 'harass' and disturb my leader, don't care how I stayed in the class afterwards."

Chi Guilan shouted: "I'm for your own good! You were still young at that time, and I'm afraid you will make bad friends!"

"For my good?" Zhan Xi was angry and laughed, "Mom, do you know how lonely and painful I was when I was in middle school? I have no friends, and no one dares to play with me, because they all know that I have a very weird mother, a mother who rushed to school to complain at any time."

Chi Guilan wants to "get it": "I..."

"Listen to me first!" Zhan Xi didn't give her a chance, "Everyone is here, let's listen to your good deeds for me! You are not encouraging me to take the postgraduate entrance examination and take the public entrance examination and you ordered me to take the postgraduate entrance examination and take the public entrance examination. If I don't take the exam, it's like doing something ruthless. You asked me to find a stable and decent job, and you can probably satisfy your own face. Call my leader and ruin all my efforts for half a year. I can remember this for a lifetime! You still don't know what major I really want to study, and what job I really want to do! In your opinion, as long as you are a strong job, even if you sit at the desk and read the newspaper and drink tea every day, right?"

Duoduo listened to this and looked at Zhan Xi with sympathy.

She only remembers that from childhood to adulthood, everyone used Zhan Xi to set an example for her. How proud my aunt was when she talked about her daughter! She also instructed Chi Guixian countless times to control her daughter. Thank God, my mother didn't listen, and Sister Huanhuan's life sounded terrible.

Zhan Xi looked at Chi Guilan. I don’t know when she was much taller than her mother. She used to look up, but now she feels condescending. Maybe it’s because Chi Guilan is old, and she is always hunched over when she gets old.

"Mom, I don't want to quarrel with you at all, but I don't know how to communicate with you." Zhan Xi said: "Everyone has no way to choose their own origins and no way to choose their own parents. I am like this, my boyfriend is like this, he doesn't even have the chance to choose whether his ears can hear it."

Zhan Xi changed the subject, "But it doesn't matter. Life is our own, not our parents, not our brothers and sisters. My life is not yours, not my boyfriend. Everything I do and every word I say now is my own decision. I will bear the consequences, good or bad things, myself."

"My boyfriend's life is very hard, but he never gave up. He is tough, sober, and hardworking. I learned a lot from him." Zhan Xi thought of Luo Jingyu, and felt like he had strength in his heart. "I have met his family. They are all very easy to get along with. They respect and tolerate my boyfriend, and support him in pursuing his dreams and understanding every decision he made."

Zhan Xi glanced at Zhan Qiang and Zhan Jie, and his eyes fell back on Chi Guilan's face, "Mom, when will my relationship with you become like that? Just like the relationship between my boyfriend and his parents. I can tell you my dreams, my plans, and interesting things in my life, where I went to play with my friends, what I ate, what movies I watched, what clothes I bought, and what colored hair I dyed. When I encountered unhappy things, I could come to you to cry, you comfort me, and say it's okay, there is a mother here, no matter what grievances you encounter outside, my mother will always support you."

Speaking of this, Zhan Xi sighed quietly and shook his head, "It's a pity that this is impossible. This is other people's mother and children. This is like this, my aunt and sister Lili, this is like this, my aunt and Duoduo, this is like this, Qin Fei and her mother, many of the friends and their mothers I know are like this, only I am not."

Zhan Xi's volume suddenly increased a little, and his speech became faster, "Do you know? I dare not tell you my dreams at all! Because you will reject everything! I don't even give me the opportunity to talk about it! I dare not tell you about my life, I dare not tell you who my friend is and what I did! If you don't see good things, you will always see the bad things! KTV is in a mess, and you can't go there, and the noodles are not clean! Watching movies is a waste of time. It's better to read more books to prepare for the public exam! Want to go out for a trip with your friends? That

Is it a dream! I can only go with you, and I still sign up for the elderly group! The skirt I bought should not be too short and the collar should not be too low, otherwise it would make people think that I am an inappropriate girl! How can I dye my hair? I dyed this coffee "color" last time, and I was scolded by you for a long time! How dare I come to you to express my grievances? You said that this is all you deserve. Who told you not to listen to your mother? If you don't do this or that, you won't encounter this! You are honestly reading books and exams, getting blind dates, getting married and having children, how can you encounter this?"

Chi Guilan looked at her, her face turned blue and her lips trembled.

Duoduo rolled his eyes silently.

Zhan Jie's spirit is gloomy. He is the one who can feel the most joyful person with Zhan, but maybe because he is a male, he has never noticed this problem before and thought that his alienation from his mother was just because he grew up.

Zhan Xi smiled and still looked at Chi Guilan: "Do you remember when the last time I talked to you? It's been a few years. Don't you think I'm talking to you in the last few times, right? I tell you, I'm all lying!"

Zhan Xi was so happy. This is what she said in her heart, "I just want to lie to you! I can only lie! I haven't thought about telling you my heart for a long time! Family, parents! It was supposed to be the most relaxed and most dependent place for children, and a place where they can come back to rest when they are tired outside! But because you have you at home, this is the most depressing and suffocating place for me! Don't you feel sad when we are doing this? I don't deny that you love me. I thank you for your kindness for raising and raising me. I use money to support you, but if you want me to repay you with my whole life, I have to listen to you in everything. I'm sorry! I can't do it."

"Bang!" With a crisp sound, Zhan Xi's head turned to the side, and she was slapped by Chi Guilan again.

Chi Guilan was so angry that she was trembling all over. When she wanted to slap her again, her wrist was locked. She turned her head and saw that it was her husband Zhanqiang.

Zhan Jie also took advantage of the situation to capture Zhan Xi, pulled her away from her mother's attack range, and looked at his parents coldly.

"Is this what you said about Wei Huanhuan?" Zhan Qiang stared at Chi Guilan, tears flashed in his eyes, and he threw her hands away vigorously. "I'll beat her until she was hospitalized with a concussion. I'll hit her now? So what did she do wrong? Tell me what she said just now, which sentence did wrong?"

Chi Guilan looked at him in shock.

"Our whole family has been tolerating you, for decades. Think about your strengths, diligence, saving, and filial piety. I have nothing to say." Zhan Qiang's voice trembled, "You have the final say in the family. I admit it, my mother admits, Ajie admits, and they all divorced Qin Fei as you wish. Now there is only one Huanhuan left. Can you let her go? She is a young man! She is only ten! Her life is still long! It's no longer her to find a partner. You are a mother and drive your children in every way you do. What are you trying to do? Ajie and Huanhuan don't want to go home in the future, right?"

Chi Guilan asked tremblingly, "Old Zhan, do you want Huanhuan to marry a deaf and mute person?"

"I hope I am a deaf person!" Zhan Qiang roared, "I envy my mother for not hearing you blindly on her back! You don't like that young man, at least you have to look at him and understand what kind of person he is. Whether it's good or bad, you have to see it before you know it after seeing it!"

Zhan Qiang pointed to Zhan Xi, "Huanhuan is my daughter. I know her. She is not the kind of person who will find a partner casually! She likes that young man, and Ajie also said that everyone has good character, which means that they have advantages. You will only hold on to others' ears and can't hear this problem! When Qin Fei was seen in the past, Qin Fei was obviously very good, but you just couldn't see her. You will only see what you want to see, and only hope that all of us will follow your wishes. Listen to you. If you don't listen to you, it's wrong! I tell you Chi Guilan, Huanhuan is not wrong at all. She is wrong because she is reincarnated in our family. With our parents, if she is reincarnated in someone else's family, she might be an outstanding girl!"

Chi Guilan's body shook violently.

She looked at Zhan Jie and Zhan Xi again, her eyes were blank. The words from her daughter and husband deeply hit her, but they could not digest them in a short period of time. She didn't think she had done anything wrong, she just felt that everyone was talking about her and saying she was wrong, but what did she do wrong? She obviously gave everything for this family and for her children!
