Because of the pain, it is called marriage

Chapter 2 Needle Point Against Wheat Grass (2)
The mother-in-law was stunned, and the daughter-in-law's resolute attitude surprised her this time. The weak and weak daughter-in-law, who has always been responsive to requests, caught her by surprise this time. She said, "I won't tell you. I will tell my son when I come back. .”

"That's my husband!" Qi Xuexin corrected her.

"Your husband came out of my belly. I don't believe it. He really can be so hard-hearted that he doesn't care about his mother or his brother! I gave birth to him and raised him. My family was poor and I begged behind his back for him to study. Now I have It's time to leave, ignore mom?"

Qi Xuexin frowned, and asked her back: "According to what you said, after I marry into your family, I will pay for your daughter to support your son Yang Xueming's education in college. Now that Yang Xueming has graduated from college and is working to earn money, shouldn't he treat me poorly?" This sister-in-law has paid back? Why is she reaching out to me for money to buy a house?"

The mother-in-law slapped her thigh, and her voice became sharp: "The money for Ming Yazi and the others' education is not earned by my son learning martial arts. As a primary school teacher, how much money do you earn a month?"

Qi Xuexin laughed back in anger. She suddenly felt that she was too humble in the past, and she responded to their family's needs, but instead raised their appetites. She said word by word: "Mom, today I will tell you clearly—— You are responsible for the children you give birth to! Besides, we have helped you for so many years. Now that they can support themselves, I will never give out a penny. Your son buys a house, you can help He! He has no ability, let him figure out his own way, make a mortgage, and fight, there is nothing like me as a sister-in-law!"

The mother-in-law patted her thigh and began to cry: "Listen, listen, what is this called? Is it plausible? The excellent son I have cultivated is just for you to pick up and enjoy the blessings. If you still have this attitude now, isn't it just a house?" , you have so much money, you can't buy a house for your brother to start a family? Your brother doesn't have a house, so how can there be a woman with him..."

Qi Xuexin said word by word: "Mom, according to your calculation, you can have 100 sons. Anyway, everything about your sons will be taken care of by others, and even the house can be bought by others! Since the family is poor, they cannot afford it." Just don't give birth, let others raise you when you were born, and even stretch out your hand to ask for a house when you grow up. Your hand is too long! Feel your heart and think about it. Since I married into your family, Xiaofen And Yang Xueming's living expenses and tuition fees, which one is not paid by us?"

The mother-in-law was crying so much that her nose was covered with tears and her face was covered with tears. Suddenly Yang Jing opened the door and shouted loudly: "Stop making noise! ​​Grandma, if you want to cry, go to my dad's unit and cry! It's so noisy! Why don't you let me cry?" Have people learn?"

The mother-in-law was not happy anymore, she stared at Yang Jing and shouted: "You son of a bitch, did your mother educate you like this? Are you talking loudly to your grandma like this?"

Yang Jing pursed her lips and said disdainfully: "Grandma? Grandma, every time you come to our house, you either ask for money or ask my mother to buy you this or that. Last time you came, you asked my mother to buy a bottle for my sister-in-law." What face-lifting cream, do you know how much it is? More than 1000! My mother has never been willing to buy a bottle of cream that exceeds 200. I grew up so big, you and my uncle and uncle came to my house and bought me a candy Is it? I really wonder why your family always feel like we owe you?"

When the old lady heard her granddaughter's words, her eyes were bigger than a copper bell. When she realized it, she slapped Yang Jing's face with a big slap: "You little wolf cub! You take one bite at a time and we Family, you are not our Yang family?"

Qi Xuexin didn't expect her mother-in-law to reach out and hit her daughter. Seeing the tears on her daughter's face falling like broken pearls, she felt that her tear ducts were also broken at that moment, and her heart was also broken. Touching her daughter's face, she comforted her and said: "Xiao Jing, you shouldn't talk to your grandma like this. Don't meddle in the affairs between us adults, you children, go, be obedient, and read your book!" "

Covering her face, Yang Jing cast a contemptuous glance at her grandma, and screamed, "I don't have such a grandma! When did she ever treat me as her granddaughter?" After finishing speaking, she went straight into the room and took a book, and said to her mother in tears. "Mom, I'm going to a classmate's house." Qi Xuexin nodded helplessly, grabbed a washed apple and stuffed it into her daughter's hand.Qi Xuexin stood in front of the window and watched her daughter's figure carrying her schoolbag gradually disappear, feeling powerless.My daughter has never been willing to slap her since she was a child, but today she was slapped by her grandma. Half of her face seems to be swollen. I don't know if her classmates will laugh at her when she arrives at school...

The mother-in-law is still swearing and swearing, saying that she has not taught the child well, the child has not been educated or something.Qi Xuexin stood in front of her and said to her slowly: "If you have nothing to do at noon today, sit here and think about it. Who are the uneducated people? My daughter is a wolf cub that I don't know well, and your family is a bunch of white-eyed wolves!" After finishing speaking, she ignored her mother-in-law's crying, walked into the room, locked the door and lay down on the bed.

Life is actually like an onion, you peel it off one by one, and one piece will make you cry.Qi Xuexin felt that her life of tears had actually begun when she insisted on marrying Yang Xuewu despite her parents' opposition.Facing the selfish and unreasonable mother-in-law of the feudal tradition, she has no power to fight back.

In addition to being her husband's mother, she is also her mother-in-law, an elder, and even an old man in her 60s. She is a little sick. If she wants to influence your life unreasonably, what else can you do?Even if you have a reason, you can't explain it clearly to her, and such a person can't be killed or cut, and it still doesn't help if you make a fuss!

The large mirror mounted on the bedroom wall reflected her chubby body with a tired look on her face.Qi Xuexin closed her eyes in despair.The girl with bright eyes and white teeth has been exhausted in daily life, and now she is just a 38-year-old middle-aged woman.She didn't know how she had made it all these years, now that Yang Xuewu spent less and less time at home, it was no wonder that he was busy at the peak of his middle-aged career!However, the mother-in-law has not developed the kind of tolerance and love that the elderly should have in the passage of time. On the contrary, it has become more and more excessive. Qi Xuexin secretly wonders whether she has been too kind for so many years, so that her mother-in-law pushes forward.

Her heart seemed to be grabbed by an invisible iron hand. Sadness, self-blame, unwillingness, shame, frustration, helplessness... There were mixed feelings in her heart, and all kinds of emotions were tangled together overwhelmingly, twisting her into a giant vortex.

Qi Xuexin was born in a family of cadres, and her roots are straight and Miaohong.Back then, no matter which young man saw her, his eyes would straighten.Her eyes are as bright and moist as dots of lacquer, and she can see into people's hearts at a glance.However, she always smiles calmly, and any guy who wants to get close to her will only feel that the mountains are high and the water is far away.When she was a girl, Qi Xuexin liked to wear golden knee-length silk skirts. She had a graceful and slender figure, her soft curly hair set off her smooth face, her charming almond eyes were full of water, and her ruddy lips were slightly parted, as if she was about to Pour out the most touching words in the world.How many men did she fascinate back then? Yang Xuewu fell in love with her like a fascination after seeing her by accident.It was summer when I saw Qi Xuexin for the first time. Qi Xuexin happened to be wearing that golden knee-length dress that day, and her face had a kind of aloofness that transcended the world, and there was an indescribable silence on her face.

Yang Xuewu, who just came to work, didn’t have many patients. Any industry has its own unspoken rules. Almost all patients in the hospital are taken in by senior doctors. Young doctors like them who have just started work and have no experience can’t stand in the hospital. feet.The untenable Yang Xuewu has a lot of free time, he likes to hide behind Qi Xuexin and follow her quietly.He knows that she likes to watch movies and often goes to Iron Mountain Cinema to watch movies.So Yang Xuewu often sat quietly on the steps of the movie theater alone while she was watching movies, watching her come stepping on the sun.

At this time, Yang Xuewu suddenly realized how humble he was, and he didn't even have the right to talk to her.He knew that her parents were both cadres, and she was the only daughter in the family.Such a beautiful person has such a compelling family background, which made the thoughts in his heart go out all of a sudden.He could only sit quietly on the steps of the movie theater, quietly watching her come stepping on the sunlight, and then stepping on the sunlight to leave.

Walking in the bustling city, looking at the lovers coming and going, Yang Xuewu was so envious in his heart, there is always a little jealousy behind the envy.That golden shadow disturbed the tranquility of Yang Xuewu's life. Whenever he calmed down, Qi Xuexin's face floated in his mind.He met her many times in his dreams, but saw nothing when he woke up.Yang Xuewu gradually despaired in this secret love, but he couldn't control himself to follow her secretly.Finally, on a Sunday morning, he went to the vegetable market to buy some groceries.The vegetable market is crowded with people.On the narrow road, it is even more congested.He flowed slowly with the flow of people, and accidentally stepped on someone's foot.When this person tossed her long braid, turned around, and stared at him with her bright eyes, he was so startled that he could stuff two eggs into his mouth.It was actually Qi Xuexin, the distant and beautiful princess Qi Xuexin.Her braids hit his face, and he felt very soft, and she stared at him, the sparkle in her eyes.She frowned and asked, "Have you followed me to the vegetable market?"

This sentence seemed to have given Yang Xuewu a blow in the head, and caught him off guard. It turned out that she knew it all along!When he was quietly following her, when he was sitting on the steps of the cinema and peeking at her, when he was wandering around her unit waiting for her to get off work... for a long time, he still stood there in a daze.When she said this, the light waves in her eyes had been deeply engraved in his brain.He even noticed a dimple in her smile.Facing his surprise, she smiled very naturally.However, before he could say a single word, she turned and left in a hurry.

That night, Yang Xuewu was sleeping on the bed, and seemed to see Qi Xuexin walking towards him with a smile.She smiled so beautifully, so naturally, without a trace of affectation, she looked very gentle and lovely.So he stepped forward to flatter her and said: "Xuexin, you are so beautiful. From the day I saw you, I have been..." I have been thinking about you all the time, and he couldn't even say these words in his dream.Her big beautiful eyes gazed at him, surveying him from head to toe, and she didn't say a word, just smiled.But he slowly withered in this smile.After waking up from the dream, he felt lost, why was he so humble even in the dream?

Yang Xuewu was like a stray dog, wandering around but not daring to appear in front of her again.During that time, he lost a lot of weight. In silence, he immersed himself in his books and devoted himself to his work.After persisting like this for four months, four months and eight days to be exact, he stood in front of Qi Xuexin as if he was going to die, holding two movie tickets and the complicated mood of a hero who had lost his boat and never returned. She said: "Here is a movie ticket for you. You like to watch movies, you... go and see them!" Qi Xuexin looked at him in surprise, what a resolute face it was, but it was so pale that it was almost transparent, and the long and narrow dark eyes were not at all. Looking forward over the top of her head out of focus, with broken hair floating on her forehead, blocking his sight intentionally or unintentionally, this man is gloomy and arrogant.

Qi Xuexin looked back, pursed her lips and smiled, and asked him, "Are you talking to me?"

"Ah."

"Then why don't you look at me? Don't you know that it seems impolite not to look at someone when you're talking to them?" Qi Xuexin is actually not a mean person, but she doesn't know why, she just wants to tease him.

Sure enough, Yang Xuewu's face turned red immediately, he stuffed the movie ticket into her hand, and said in a low voice: "Go and see. Find a friend to watch with you." After speaking, he turned his head just go.

Qi Xuexin called him back: "Why don't we go and watch together."

Yang Xuewu's footsteps stopped, he turned around and walked in front of her, took a ticket from her hand, still didn't look at her, just said: "See you soon." Then he left as if fleeing.

Qi Xuexin stood there staring blankly at his back for a long time but could not recover. The words she said in the vegetable market last time made him disappear for several months. Qi Xuexin even secretly regretted that she should not have said those words. hurt his self-esteem.Walking on the road after get off work every day, she couldn't help but look back to see if he was still following her.The figure that no longer appeared behind her made her feel melancholy for a long time.On the steps of Tieshan Cinema, she never saw his lonely figure again, she just sat there quietly and peeped at herself.Once I accidentally saw him on the street. He walked down the street in a daze, turning a blind eye to everything around him, and he didn't even see her coming towards him.For some reason, Qi Xuexin suddenly turned around and followed behind him. She wanted to know what it was like to pay attention to someone quietly.She followed him into the hospital, and when she saw him in a white coat, her heart felt as if someone had whipped her hard, bloody and in pain, and she suddenly understood him.Yang Xuewu is unquestionably regarded as a cold, arrogant and refined man, as demure as a laurel blooming, with such a clear and clean temperament, it is absolutely impossible for people to see what kind of soul he will have.

In fact, the time at the movie theater was not a date, because Yang Xuewu worked overtime that day and couldn't make it, but he asked a buddy in the department to bring a few bags of popcorn to the movie theater and explained to her.That day, for the first time, Qi Xuexin felt that watching a movie alone was a miserable thing.Therefore, on the evening of the third day when Yang Xuewu did not show up, Qi Xuexin, who had just got off work, stopped him at the hospital gate, looked at him with a frightened face and said, "To thank you for giving me the movie ticket, I decided to treat you tonight." Have dinner."

Yang Xuewu was at a loss. He looked at his crumpled coat and the patches on the corners of his trousers with some annoyance, and said to her: "Please wait a moment, I will go back and change soon."

Back to the [-]-square-meter one-story house assigned to him by the hospital, the first thing Yang Xuewu did was to rush to the mirror, and he saw his face glistening with oil, looking like he was about to be imprisoned.He washed his face vigorously with soap and changed his clothes.When Yang Xuewu, with a tall figure and handsome face, appeared in front of her again, he was wearing a well-fitting shirt, the snow-white fabric was shining in the sun, and it was spotlessly clean.Qi Xuexin smiled, showing her white teeth, and asked, "Do you like pickled fish?"

A first date is a success, if it can be called a date at all.

After dinner, Qi Xuexin asked him, "Where are you going later?"

Yang Xuewu was taken aback.According to the usual routine, he should be the first to ask, are you free later?walk again?Or find a place to sit?

But Qi Xuexin took the lead, and Yang Xuewu felt like an idiot in front of her, so he could only reply weakly like a woman: "Nowhere."

Years later, when Yang Xuewu recalled his answer at this moment, he still felt stupid.Sure enough, Qi Xuexin stood up before he regretted it, and said, "Then I'll go back."

He quickly stood up: "I'll see you off!"

Qi Xuexin didn't refuse, she knew that he was like a easily frightened rabbit, he was extremely reserved in front of her, an unintentional rejection might make him go far.It was supposed to be her treat for the meal, but he insisted on paying for it, so she just let him.

It was only after the two of them came out that it was dark, that is to say, the meal had been eaten for at least two hours.It's just ordinary fish with pickled cabbage, and the dishes are ordinary. If it were another person, Yang Xuewu believed that he would never be able to chat with a table of fish bones for two hours without saying a word.

Maybe Einstein's theory of relativity is used to prove love.

In this way, with the first date, there will be the second, third... As a result of countless dates, Qi Xuexin brought Yang Xuewu home to meet his parents.When Yang Xuewu came in to change his shoes that day, Xuexin's mother frowned. The patch on the heel of Yang Xuewu's socks was too eye-catching. At that time, Xuexin's mother muttered: This man's family is not very good.The few gifts that Yang Xuewu bought were placed in the corner by Xuexin's mother lukewarmly.Xuexin's father was bold, took out a bottle of dry red that he had kept for many years, and made a cup of hot Maojian for Yang Xuewu.

When eating, the dishes served by Xuexin's mother were exquisite, but the portions were pitifully small. The bowls and chopsticks were all set. Although they were pretty, the small bowls were really cute.Xuexin's mother wanted to show the difference and distance between them and Yang Xuewu, Xuexin felt a little uncomfortable.Yang Xuewu couldn't bear to touch the dish that was half a plate down from the chopsticks on the dining table. Xuexin's mother saw his intentions and said in a yin and yang way: "People in the city have this problem. They eat small dishes and eat too much. The next meal is not fresh. It’s not like your villages, where vegetables can be eaten.” Xuexin’s father frowned and interrupted: “What city and countryside? Didn’t you stay in the countryside for more than ten years before returning to the city! Little Yang, come, eat vegetables!" Xuexin's father kept serving Yang Xuewu vegetables, but those vegetables were already stuck in Yang Xuewu's stomach like a stone and could not be digested.In fact, Yang Xuewu's performance is still very good, his words are decent, and whenever Xuexin's father picks up dishes, he will definitely greet Xuexin's father with a bowl in both hands.Xuexin's mother kept asking about his family situation, his job, and even his house. Yang Xuewu was not prepared for this at all, and being asked by Xuexin's mother made his whole body feel chilled like water had been poured on him.Xuexin's father is polite, but there is also a little alienation in that politeness.From the beginning to the end, Qi Xuexin watched with cold eyes.
