Momo no rain

Chapter 97 Some people say grapes are sour when they can’t eat them
"Mom, Momo got up at five o'clock this morning to cook this nutritious porridge for you. For the sake of Momo's filial piety, you might as well take a sip." Duan Zimo looked at Momo standing nearby awkwardly and hurriedly persuaded his mother. .

"I said, I'm not hungry and I can't drink. You can't force me to drink!" Luo Yuanyuan frowned and said something to her son, then closed her eyes again.

Ma Ruping stood nearby and looked at Momo with a gloating expression.

"Mom, I have good news for you!" In order to change his mother's attitude towards Momo, Duan Zimo planned to tell her about Momo's award.

Luo Yuanyuan lay half-lying on the bed unmoved, closing her eyes and continuing to remain silent.

Duan Zimo believed that silence meant approval, and he continued to say to his mother excitedly: "Mom, the head of Momo's department said that in view of Momo's hard work and outstanding performance in school in the past three years, she may be recommended to attend E University's combined master's and doctoral program next year. !”

"Master and Ph.D.?" Luo Yuanyuan opened her eyes in shock.Ma Ruping was also startled, thinking to herself, I can't believe that this poor little girl managed to get to the top of the school!
"Yes! Momo is good enough! Even better than your son!" Duan Zimo was even more proud when he saw his mother open her eyes and seemed to be very interested in what he said.

After Duan Zimo finished speaking, he glanced at Ma Ruping from the corner of his eye and said, "Momo loves to study and is capable, unlike some people who can't do anything apart from their parents except talking nonsense every day."

"No matter how educated a woman is, no matter how knowledgeable she is, she still ends up getting married and having children, becoming a wife and mother. What's so embarrassing! Cut!" Ma Ruping replied disdainfully.

"Some people say grapes are sour when they can't eat them." Duan Zimo continued in a lazy tone.Then he said to Momo with a smile: "Momo, peel an apple for our mother." Momo felt a little embarrassed when she heard the word "our mother", and her face instantly turned red.

"Zimo, do I agree with her calling me mom?" Luo Yuanyuan was slightly angry.

"Isn't this a matter of time! Mom, Momo is filial and sensible, and she also loves to learn. Where are you going to find such a good daughter-in-law? Just don't worry about it. Haha" Duan Zimo said to his mother with a playful smile. said.

"I think what Pingping said makes sense. Why do girls need such a high degree of education? Just graduate from college and find a stable job, then get married and have children." Luo Yuanyuan still couldn't let go and said to her son with a cold face.

Momo had heard many harsh words from Wang Cuiyu before, and she could endure them. Although her future mother-in-law did not listen to her words, she was already much better than Wang Cuiyu.Therefore, Momo did not refute her future mother-in-law's unreasonable words. Instead, she sat silently beside her hospital bed, picked up an apple, and began to peel it carefully.There is only one belief in her heart, as long as Duan Zimo is on the same front with her, supports her, trusts her, and understands her, all difficulties will not be a problem.

"Mom, don't tell me that you don't want a daughter-in-law who is capable and loves to learn, but a daughter-in-law who is mediocre and doesn't seek to make progress, and who may even have to feed her old age! I don't believe it even if you say it." Everyone has vanity, and Duan Zimo doesn't believe that her mother will look down on fame and fortune.Although Momo doesn't have a wealthy family, but she is willing to work hard and capable, and it is possible to gain both fame and fortune in the future.Maybe Momo will be the capital of his mother's pride in the future!

As soon as Duan Zimo finished speaking, his father and secretary pushed the door open and came in.

"dad."

"Hello, uncle!" Momo quickly stood up and greeted her future father-in-law politely with a smile.

"Hello, uncle!" Ma Ruping also hurriedly walked to Duan Zimo's father and said hello with a smile.

"Okay, is Momo on vacation?" Duan Zimo's father asked Momo with a smile, leaving Ma Ruping aside.

"Well, I had a day off yesterday." Momo replied softly.

"Okay, it's a holiday! Spend more time with your aunt. Zimo is usually busy with work and doesn't have time to spend time with her. You are on holiday and have more free time, so you can spend more time with her for Zimo. Haha" Duan Zimo's father laughed He said to Momo, and looked up to see Ma Ruping standing aside a little embarrassed, smiling and saying, "Pingping is here too, have you found a job? You're not still at home eating old age, are you?"

"Uncle, it's been almost a month since I found a new job." Ma Ruping's face immediately turned red after hearing Duan Zimo's father say that, and she hurriedly defended herself.

"Oh, it's good to find a job. You and Zimo are classmates and are about the same age. We are both 27 years old this year. I plan to get him and Momo married this year. You should also hurry up and find a boyfriend! I met you a few days ago. As for your dad, your dad has been worried about your marriage! Haha," Duan Zimo's father said to Ma Ruping with a smile.

"Uncle, it's not like you don't know what I'm thinking, so why are you still making fun of me~" Ma Ruping's voice was a little coquettish.

"Dad, don't talk nonsense to her. I know best how much she weighs, and it's all in vain." Duan Zimo frowned and said to his father.

"You are my rose, you are my flower..." Ma Ruping's cell phone rang suddenly.

Ma Ruping originally wanted to criticize Duan Zimo, but when she heard her cell phone ringing, she looked at Duan Zimo and hurriedly took out her cell phone to answer the call.

"Pingping, where are you? Hurry to Xinyuan Cafe on Tonghua Road. Mom wants to tell you good news!" Ma Ruping's mother called.

"What good news?"

"You'll know when you get here. Hurry up, good daughter!"

"I understand." Ma Ruping hung up the phone reluctantly.

"Auntie, uncle, my mother called me and asked me to go to Xinyuan Cafe now. I'm leaving. Goodbye, uncle and auntie!" Ma Ruping politely greeted Duanzimo's parents, and then left a little dejectedly. .

"Dad, what did the doctor say about my mother's illness?" After Ma Ruping left, Duan Zimo asked his father.

"Doctor Wang said there is nothing serious. He will stay in the hospital for another two days for observation and then he can be discharged." Duan Zimo's father said gently to his son, then approached Luo Yuanyuan and said, "Don't do that childish thing again in the future. ! And lose weight! Don’t eat steamed rice, only eat one cucumber and one tomato for one meal. The doctor said you are sick because you are hungry! You said, I don’t mind you being fat, why are you trying to lose weight! I think you are just free. trouble making!"

Duan Zimo's mother was half-lying on the hospital bed. After being told off by her husband, she knew that she really ignored him, so she just rolled her eyes at her husband and closed her eyes to rest angrily.Duan Zimo looked at his mother's angry expression and snickered.

"Dad, let me tell you some exciting news!" Duan Zimo wished that everyone in the world would know about Momo's good grades.

"What good news?"

"The head of Momo's department said that given her excellent academic performance in the past three years, she may be recommended to attend University E's joint master's and doctoral program next year!" Duan Zimo said excitedly, with sparkling stars in his black eyes.

When Duan Zimo's father heard what his son had said, he was overjoyed and said with a smile: "What am I talking about? I could see that Momo was a good boy from the first time we met! It's true! Son, you have good vision, and dad supports you!" Haha," Duan Zimo's father said to his son humorously. His secretary and Duan Zimo both laughed. Momo was a little shy and her face turned red.Only Luo Yuanyuan was half-lying on the hospital bed with her eyes closed and expressionless, pretending to know nothing.

"Momo, you are amazing! You are not only the pride of the old Mo family, but also the pride of our old Duan family!" Duan Zimo's father is a leader, so what he says has an official flavor.No matter what, his recognition and love for Momo from the bottom of his heart is true.
