"Mom, how can you deceive grandpa and grandma? My feelings for Lu Linzhong are serious."

"I just hope from the bottom of my heart that you just had a conflict with us, so you found a girlfriend. If you think what I did was cheating, then I also cheated myself."

An Huaixu took a deep breath, remembering Lu Linzhong's sincere and serious tone that night, their future must be worked hard together, and she also wanted to give Lu Linzhong the feeling of being blessed by his family.

She calmed down and said sincerely: "Mom, I solemnly tell you that I am serious, I hope"

The voice on the other end of the phone became noisy, and before she could say what she wanted to say, Jiang Mu hastily hung up the phone.

The mobile phone jumped back to the main interface, and she looked through the glass window at the avenue with traffic and traffic in front of the unit building, lost in thought.

In the evening, Lu Linzhong appeared on time at the parking lot near her unit. An Huaixu put on her seat belt, turned her head slightly, and was attracted by Lu Linzhong's hand on the steering wheel.

An Huaixu stared at the diamond on the ring for a long time, the deep sadness in her eyes could no longer be suppressed, and said softly: "Let's get engaged."

Without saying a word, Lu Linzhong calmly parked the car temporarily on the side of the road and pulled on the handbrake.

"Would you disagree?" An Huaixu raised his eyes cautiously.

"I agree." Lu Linzhong paused, and An Huaixu's eyes obviously lit up, and she added: "But you have to tell me the reason for making this sudden decision."

An Huaixu's inner happiness didn't last too long, his eyes fell on the still scenery outside the window, and he said sadly, "I called my mother before I got off work today."

She bit her lower lip unconsciously, and raised her eyes to look at Lu Linzhong unconsciously after speaking, making no secret of her strong love and possessiveness, she felt that there was nothing wrong with this, and there was nothing wrong with it.

She just wanted to be with this person in front of her very much, for a long time.

Even if they are not willing to bless us now, there will be a day.

Lu Linzhong lowered the car window, and the noisy sound from outside eased the silence in the car a little. Some things can be guessed without asking. The process and result of the phone call must have been not smooth.

Under the illumination of the street lamp, sporadic leaf shadows fell on the back of An Huaixu's hand, and her voice gradually lowered: "I tried my best, but I didn't get the result we wanted."

She heard Lu Linzhong chuckle twice, and said softly:

"Effort once can only be called an attempt. It doesn't matter, the future will last forever."

An Huaixu heard that the other party didn't mean to blame or disappoint, so he squinted his eyes and smiled: "I have a bold idea."

Lu Linzhong smelled a little restlessness, the so-called bold idea didn't seem to be a good word.But she still motioned to An Huaixu patiently: "Tell me."

An Huaixu wanted to say: We can get engaged first, and I will notify the family, or they don't have to come.Then let's get the certificate again, and they don't have to come, after all, the raw rice has been cooked, and you are the person on my household registration book, when the time comes...

Lu Linzhong seemed to see through her mind at a glance, with a faint smile on his lips.

An Huaixu stared, she always felt that behind the sudden sweetness lately, there were many uncertain factors lurking, she was worried that the night would be long and dreamy.

"Time, can it be earlier? The sooner the better, preferably this Saturday." An Huaixu originally wanted to say that it is better to hit the sun than to choose a date, but this is too hasty and informal. She wants to give Lu Linzhong the best. of.

"There is a delicious restaurant in front, do you want to go?"

Hearing Lu Linzhong's proposal, An Huaixu looked forward in surprise, and immediately realized that Lu Linzhong might want to change the subject, shook his head and said, "No, let's go home earlier."

"Oh?" Lu Linzhong was a little surprised by An Huaixu's answer, "Don't you like that restaurant the most?"

"I like you the most now." An Huaixu blurted out.

"In such a hurry to go home?"

She was stared at by Lu Linzhong with a smile that was not a smile, and Lu Linzhong was thinking about some pornographic waste, and he couldn't help his throat: "It's not what you think..."

Feeling Lu Linzhong's smile getting deeper and deeper, it took a long time for An Huaixu to realize: "You really changed the topic! Hey! I finally asked someone to marry you and you don't take me seriously Bar?"

Lu Linzhong raised his eyebrows, and let An Huaixu continue.

In the evening of the next day, while Lu Linzhong was out to socialize, An Huaixu drove back to the old house alone. She was determined to be with Lu Linzhong. She came back this time hoping that her parents could attend the engagement banquet.

The white window lattice reveals the ever-changing colored lights in the living room, and the sound of the TV stereo cannot be heard clearly through the doors and windows.

Jiang Mu left the door for An Huaixu, and when she heard An Huaixu stepping into the room, she paused the TV.

An Huaixu habitually looked at the study on the second floor, and Jiang Mu explained: "Your father has a party tonight, so he will come back very late."

An Huaixu nodded, she knew that her mother would definitely pass on what she said to her father.

The mother and daughter were silent for a long time, Jiang Mu picked up the TV remote control on the coffee table again, An Huaixu saw her movement, clenched his back molars and finally said: "Mom, I have something to tell you, Please pass it on to Dad."

"If it's about you and Ms. Lu, then you don't need to tell me, and your father won't want to know." Jiang Mu gave An Huaixu a cold look, and then continued to play the suspended TV series.

An Huaixu took a deep breath, she understood Jiang Mu's bad mood, but as long as many things are viewed from a different angle, or change one's thinking to accept, the things themselves may not be so bad.

"Why can't you accept it? It's unfair for you to rush to deny her without getting to know her. She is mature, stable, smart and intellectual. She has achieved more career achievements than most people at a young age. The important thing is—"

"Xiao Xu, it's not Ms. Lu that we don't accept. It's your feelings that we don't accept." Jiang Mu couldn't help but interrupt when he heard his daughter talking about Lu Linzhong, "Because we don't accept it, so we treat her There is no need to understand the education and character of the family."

An Huaixu looked at Jiang Mu's indifferent expression and knew what his mother's words meant.

"You can even arrange for Lin Yusi and me to marry without a foundation of affection. It can be seen that in the eyes of you and Dad, affection is not very sacred, nor is it a necessary condition for marriage." An Huaixu's voice was deep and deep A lot, echoed in the empty living room, "After all, it's for face, otherwise why don't you accept it?"

Jiang Mu's breathing became heavier, her daughter's extreme words were like dense needles stuck in her heart, and the parents' beloved son had a far-reaching plan for it.She and her husband only hoped that their daughter would have a good home and marry Lin Yusi for the sake of her daughter's worry-free life, and even made the biggest concession and agreed that her daughter would be with Xu Zhongxuan.But I don't know when, in the eyes of her daughter, she and her husband have become profit-seeking people.

Disappointed by An Huaixu's sharp words, she asked sharply: "Do you miss me and your father like this? My daughter who has worked hard to raise has to take a detour, and you let me watch like this and not pull her her hand?"

"According to what you said, I don't deserve to choose a relationship by myself."

"Emotions?" Jiang Mu smiled sadly, "Xiao Xu, you are 25 years old, how many relationships have you experienced?

How much do you know about relationships?You and Ms. Lu are currently in a passionate relationship, and you want to give each other everything you have, and feel that the other person is the best person in the world. This is an inevitable feeling in every relationship, but when the passion fades, most In the end, the emotions are far from the original idea, or even run counter to it.Mom is from here"

"Mom, even if you come here, you only live one life and have a marriage. Why do you think that the decision I made and the person I chose are unreliable? You and Dad are used to everyone's decision on you at work. They all nodded, so I can't accept that I said 'no' to you, I didn't come home today to discuss with you whether to accept us, I just want to inform you that Lu Linzhong and I are getting engaged, just this Saturday."

On the way here, An Huaixu had already anticipated Jiang Mu's reaction when he heard the news, whether he would be furious or slap himself, whether he would scold him hysterically or smash the newly bought tea set at home, but he didn't think of Jiang Mu's reaction. Mu Zai picked up the teapot from the table after hearing what he said, and poured the tea calmly and dignifiedly. Even though he was over half a century old, there was no wrinkle on his hands. Years of maintenance made his skin look particularly delicate and fair.

This abnormal silence seemed to drag her down until Jiang Mu had finished drinking tea, and then asked in a calm voice: "Xiao Xu, do you still remember when I took you to England when I was a child, what story did I tell you by the Thames River?" ?"

She obviously didn't intend to ask her daughter to speak, and she had already asked herself: "It's the story of the Duke of Windsor and Wallis Simpson."

An Huaixu stared, remembering the story her mother once told her.Edward VIII once confessed affectionately to Mrs. Simpson, even if I have nothing because of being with you, I have no complaints. Compared with you, the crown, scepter and throne are not important.

When she was young, she was moved by the stories of the Duke of Windsor and Mrs. Simpson.As ordinary as she is, she has nothing at all, and there is nothing to give up. If there is something that cannot be handled, it is her parents who force her to choose between them and Lu Linzhong.

Jiang Mu watched her daughter's bright eyes sinking little by little, she had to beat the child who was protected in the greenhouse cruelly. "Xiao Xu, you must realize that all good love is covered with a layer of sweetness, just like all bitter medicines are covered with sugar. The world laments the beauty of their love, but in reality Mrs Simpson has not been accepted by the British royal family."

"Mom, is it so difficult for me to want a marriage that is blessed by you? I don't want anything but her." She was panicked. Facing her mother's persecution, she had to hold back an inch of land. It wasn't that she didn't want family affection, She even longed to be blessed by her family, but things backfired. If she had to choose, she would choose Lu Linzhong.

"You don't want anything? Xiao Xu, are you sure you have the ability to complete the path you chose? What have you accomplished independently since you were a child? You are a baby who can't walk, holding on to the armrests and the sofa Marriage and love are different, not as simple as you think, how much do you know about Ms. Lu? Her habits, her preferences, her past, her family, you so far How much do you know so far?"

Jiang Mu found a gap in his daughter's slightly dazed eyes, and continued: "You don't know these things, right? Isn't this enough to prove that you made an impulsive decision?"

"After I'm with her, I have time. I will use every day and every minute to get to know her. Just like the habits, preferences, and family you mentioned, I will take the initiative to understand these issues that you find difficult. It doesn't matter to me or to her. Mom, I"

"It's not a problem? You are going to marry Ms. Lu. After you start a family, do you plan to rely on her or let her rely on you?" Jiang Mu's experienced eyes immediately saw through the contradiction.There were some things that she couldn't bear to say in the past, but now she saw her daughter getting more and more mischievous and had to mention it.

"From the first time I saw Ms. Lu, I could see that she was mature, stable, and experienced. She might be able to give you material security, but I also want to tell you that the more people who stand at a high place see The more things you have, the more temptations you face. You only know to rely on her and look up to her. Such an unbalanced marriage cannot last for a long time. If you want her to rely on you, what do you think you can give her by yourself? ?”

In each of the more serious words, Jiang Mu watched An Huaixu's suppressed emotions surging upwards. She knew her daughter's personality and abilities best.Instead of letting the dilapidated reality teach her daughter those cruel truths, it is better for her to teach her daughter those truths first. What she has to do now is to push people forward.

"Xiao Xu, you can't even give her a marriage blessed by relatives and friends."

An Huaixu raked her hair irritably. Before she came, she swore that she would not compromise. She took a deep breath, looked at the flashing picture on the TV screen, and asked after a long silence: "Is it because I don't want to give it to her?" It’s because you and Dad don’t want to fulfill us.” She stood up, walked to the door, turned her back to Jiang Mu and began to put on her shoes. She felt sore, but she had already said what she had to say, even if she said something out of mouth today, her mother would not Might be relieved.

An Huaixu supported the door frame, looked back at Jiang Mu who was sitting alone on the sofa, and said in a deep voice, "I will definitely give her a marriage blessed by the elders."

"At all costs? Do you know how scared your grandparents were that night? An Huaixu, you can't be so selfish!"

An Huaixu walked out of the door quickly and closed the door forcefully. Jiang Mu's irritable and angry words were blocked in the room. She took a deep breath, sat back in the car, smashed the steering wheel as if to vent her anger, and leaned against In the driver's seat.

Of course she would not selfishly run to the old people at this time and use them to force them to accept this fact, but is she really like what her mother said, that she can't even give Lu Linzhong a blessed marriage?

How far can an unblessed marriage go?Even if she doesn't care about her family's approval, Lu Linzhong doesn't necessarily care.Lu Linzhong is so proud, what he wants is a perfect relationship, and only a perfect relationship can match her perfect lover.

The mobile phone in her pocket vibrated. She thought it was her mother's call, so she turned her face away and didn't look at it.After a few seconds of silence, the phone vibrated again, repeating this several times.She took out her phone impatiently, and Lu Linzhong's cute nickname "Six Six" flashed on the screen.

Lu Linzhong?
