lnmao.org, the fastest update to return to the latest chapter of 1977!

Completely opposite to the Hong family's scene of fragrant delicacies and happy gatherings, at the same time, the family dinner at Er Shui's family in the west courtyard was a bit awkward.

Not for anything else, but because Qiao Mu left without eating.

Actually, Qiao Mu was quite nice when he first came in, but he became very enthusiastic when he saw "Aunt Shui".

First, he presented two boxes of pastries and two bottles of "Hua Deng" brand "Beijing Special Song", and then his mouth was filled with honey as if he had heard of anything good. Completely with the attitude of treating oneself as a clean object.

Aunt Shui didn't know that Shui Qing was going to take her classmates home today. She was extremely surprised to see this young man's face was quite pale and he looked very talented. Naturally, we should treat each other warmly.

She invited people to drink tea and bring cigarettes, but she didn’t know how to entertain them. In the end, he was happily persuaded by Shui Qing to go into the kitchen to work, and the room returned to peace.

But all this good atmosphere changed completely after Shui Lian carried Shui Xiaoying into the house.

Because Qiao Mu witnessed with his own eyes how Shui Xiaoying, who was more than one year old, threw herself into Shui Qing's arms and called her mother like a candy.

Shui Qing happily agreed, and the scene of picking up the child was like a bolt from the blue to him!

Although Shui Qing later explained the ins and outs of the child to Qiao Mu, no matter how hard he tried, the smile he tried to show could only be described as "stiff".

Especially when he tried to persuade Shui Qing to find a good family to send the child away, but was flatly rejected by Shui Qing, his attitude became even more uncomfortable.

The enthusiasm and joy that had just entered the door immediately disappeared, and were replaced by frowns, sighs, and even restlessness.

This was not only because he had difficulty accepting Shui Qing's explanation at the moment, but also because there was really no room for this child in his future plans.

Of course, he himself has no prejudice against this poor child, but his family and other people’s opinions...

Shui Qing saw the change in Qiao Mu and took the initiative to give him a step down. He said very tactfully, "Qiao Mu, I originally invited you here during the festival because I wanted to keep you for a meal. But if you have other things to do, don't embarrass yourself."

"Yes, yes, okay, okay, then I'll leave first. I'm sorry, I'm very sorry, I didn't expect..."

Qiao Mu immediately fell into disgrace as if he had been granted amnesty. To be honest, his impatience is actually quite hurtful.

But Shui Qing's attitude was still so considerate and she still didn't let him continue.

"No, it's me who should be sorry. I invited you to my house rashly. It's actually my fault that I let you run such a long way. But if I didn't invite you, there would be something wrong outside. It's hard to explain. Now you should understand why I have always kept a distance from you. It's not without reason. I just hope that you can take care of me in this matter. Keep it secret. Because although we are now a socialist country, the old traditional concepts are still very serious..."

These words revealed a heart that was both magnanimous and pure. Qiao Mu couldn't help but blush and expressed his breath without stopping.

"Don't worry, I understand, I will keep it secret. You are great, you are kind, it is so touching. But me, but I... mainly my parents, and... and..."

"Stop talking, I understand..."

With only a few simple words, Shui Qing still had a warm smile on his face.

No matter how shameless he is, Qiao Mu can no longer give an explanation that even he himself does not believe. Unprecedented shame and guilt made him rush out of the Shui family's door, almost as if he was running away.

He didn't even say hello to Aunt Shui, so he left quite rudely. However, he did not forget to take away the gift he bought today.

But you can’t blame him! Originally he was embarrassed to do this, but who asked Shui Qing to put something into his hand when sending him out, and insisted on doing so!

Yes! Since it is impossible for him and Shui Qing to have any fate. Then it would obviously be inappropriate for this gift to be left in the Shui family.

What if someone misunderstands me? Reputation is very important to everyone!

That’s right! He took these things entirely for the sake of Shui Qing's family.

He is a very noble person and has always despised material things. What is money? Money serves people, and people cannot be slaves to money, right?

But the key is that he can't let the Shui family feel uneasy about receiving salary for nothing.

Intellectuals are different from ordinary secular people and should be considerate of other people's difficulties...

In fact, it is quite similar to Qiao Mu’s own feelings. When Qiao Mu left, Shui Qing felt relieved from the bottom of his heart.

Because from the bottom of her heart, she had no special feelings for Qiao Mu, who was a student union cadre at school, was very elegant, and liked to write poems. Many girls privately commented on him as "Little Yu Dafu" .

This is not because she has no desire for the opposite sex, but because Qiao Mu is too weak.

This not only refers to the body but also to the character. This Qiao Mu always likes to feel compassion for flowers and moon. He is too sensitive in some aspects and is more feminine than women. Such a naughty boy is not the type of man she admires.

She even thinks that Qiao Mu should not study journalism because he is too imaginary and too fond of romance. Journalists must pay attention to a pragmatic attitude, objectivity and rigor, and must not rely on speculation.

So she never thought about what would happen between herself and Qiao Mu. There will be a day when it transcends ordinary human relationships.

On the contrary, Qiao Mu shaved his head and picked up a handsome face. As soon as he entered the university campus, he always chased after her. I always look for opportunities to have academic exchanges with her, and talk to her about Shelley and Pushkin. Then he took the initiative to help her buy food, occupy seats, and wait in line.

So gradually, whether she wanted it or not, some rumors began to spread in the school, saying that the two of them were violating school rules and having secret trysts. This unjustifiable grievance made her very troubled.

In order to prevent the situation from getting worse, to allow Qiao Mu to restrain himself, and not to hurt the other party's feelings and face, she had no choice but to take advantage of the May Day holiday to bring Qiao Mu to her home." Showdown".

In fact, it was pretty much what she thought. The plan was successful, and she would no longer have to worry about Qiao Mu, who had no similar interests.

Just saying. The side effects are also obvious.

Because this incident gave "Aunt Shui" the opposite feeling. In her opinion, this was not a case of her daughter getting out of trouble by relying on her intelligence. It was the "little dragster" who scared away a well-mannered college student. Ruined a good marriage between a talented man and a beautiful woman.

So this mother was embarrassed and embarrassed. She was afraid that this child would completely delay her eldest daughter's lifelong events. Then he brought up the old matter again and asked Shui Qing to give Shui Xiaoying away.

Of course Shui Qing refused. After a few explanations that didn't make sense, he and Aunt Shui got angry again. Finally, he took the children and hid in the house. Aunt Shui let herself talk and ignored her at all.

But the more passively resisting, the angrier Aunt Shui becomes.

Well, it was almost noon on May Day. After Shui Gengsheng and his second daughter Shui Lan came back from shopping, they found that let alone cooking, there was not even rice cooked at home.

As a result, as soon as he curiously asked what he had for lunch, Aunt Shui choked him outright.

"Eat? And eat shit! Your eldest daughter is almost mad at her own mother!"

Tell me, where did the Shui family make such a fuss? I feel so idle these days, how can I spend this holiday?
