dialogue
Now that we are neighbors with Zeng Mu's family, it is inevitable that we will meet some people eventually.
Zeng Mu's mother seemed very busy before. After they met that day, Shi Shi saw Zeng Mu again after almost two months.
she.
There is no time for Shi Shi and her to have any entanglement now. No, not only now, but also in the future.
Some things are enough to experience once.
And some words are enough to be heard once.
How could she be so foolish as to go there and be humiliated again?
"You are Shi Shi, right?" She greeted Shi Shi in a seemingly friendly manner.
"Yes, it's me. Hello, Auntie." Shi Shi suppressed her reluctance and called out "Auntie".
Shi Shi didn't want to see Ma Aili because she didn't want to call her aunt.
It was also because I saw her and saw how dignified and generous she was at this moment.
Shi Shi couldn't help but recall her so-called "previous life" and the few times she had met her.
Those words that she didn't want to recall.
===Memory dividing line===
The first time they met was by chance in a shopping mall. At that time, she had been dating Zeng Muchan for a year.
"Is she your girlfriend?" This was the first thing she said when she saw Shi Shi.
Zeng Mu introduced them to each other, and Shi Shi timidly and shyly called her "Auntie".
After this unexpected encounter, they had a meal together in a restaurant.
She had a kind smile on her face, as if she was very satisfied with Shi Shi.
At least on the surface, they seemed to be enjoying the meal.
The second time they met was when Shi Shi was at a party at the company where she was doing her internship and she ran into her when she sneaked out to get some fresh air.
"Auntie, what a coincidence, you are here too." Shi Shi greeted the person as soon as she saw him.
"Unfortunately, I came here specifically to look for you." She said with a polite smile. "I saw you earlier and it seemed like you weren't used to this kind of party."
"Yes, this is my first time attending such a party."
"How could that be? Hasn't my Zeng Mu ever taken you to participate before?"
"Ah, because I don't really like it, so I don't want to go." If this party wasn't mandatory, she probably wouldn't have come.
"Oh, no wonder I saw him go alone a few times. Later I heard people say he had a girlfriend and I thought it was strange. Why would he always come alone if he had a girlfriend?" She paused and continued. "Because he's always alone, I told people he had a girlfriend, but no one believed me and I had to introduce him to someone. It's really a headache."
"I don't know that."
"Of course he wouldn't say that in front of you."
"Thank you, Auntie. I understand. I will go with him next time."
Shi Shi really thought that this was a kind reminder. Just as Zeng Mu was accommodating to her, she also had to make the same effort.
Maybe I really should get used to these things she is not good at.
The third meeting
Shi Shi was finally willing to accompany Zeng Mu to those banquets. Although she still had some resistance in her heart, she couldn't let him go alone, nor could she accept other women's attentions to him.
At the banquet, she walked towards Shi Shi again.
"Uncle Liu just asked me about you. Go over and say hello." She first said to Zeng Mu, then turned to look at Shi Shi. "Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on your girlfriend. You go chat with the elders."
"I didn't expect you to come this time." She looked at Shi Shi with a smile. "I'll take you to meet some new friends."
"Okay." Although she was a little reluctant, Shi Shi couldn't refuse.
"That's them. They're about the same age as you. You young girls always have common topics." She took Shi Shi and walked in one direction.
The group of women also noticed them and looked towards them.
In fact, he was timid when he wrote the poem, but he did not show it on his face.
She introduced them to each other, then used the excuse of being thirsty to go to a table not far from them, casually picked up a glass of wine, and then stayed there without paying any more attention to them.
"You are Zeng Mu's girlfriend, right?" A woman with heavy makeup looked her up and down. Although she was smiling, her tone was full of noticeable contempt.
So this banquet was not very pleasant for Shi Shi. The group of women pulled her aside to talk, talking about their own hobbies and lives, and then seemed to say some ambiguous words naturally, some words that could be easily misunderstood but seemed to have no specific meaning.
Shi Shi felt that she had a very frustrating night, but fortunately, Zeng Mu came to rescue her soon.
This time, Shi Shi seemed to have noticed something, so when she saw Ma Aili again, she no longer had 100% trust in her.
It was not until their last meeting that Shi Shi knew what Ma Aili had said to her.
It turned out that beneath her previous friendly attitude, there was a lot of dissatisfaction, disgust, and hatred hidden.
She could only blame herself for being too stupid and unable to understand the underlying meaning of other people's words. However, she had never experienced such an experience in her life where every word had a hidden meaning and she had to carefully understand and ponder it.
Ma Aili taught her a lesson, a lesson that was unforgettable.
It will be unforgettable.
Perhaps because she knew that Shi Shi could not quite understand what she meant, Ma Aili was cold towards her this time.
"You're right. I'm indeed not satisfied with you." This time she expressed her attitude directly.
"But it's not that I'm dissatisfied with you. After all, you're beautiful and smart, and my son likes you so much."
So she won't show it when they first meet.
"But I still can't accept your family background. You know I have many better candidates, much better than you."
So, she asked Shi Shi to go to the banquets that Zeng Mu often attended to see how incompatible she was with Zeng Mu's world.
"I don't necessarily need my future daughter-in-law to have a good family background, but a clean background is a must."
"You said, with your background, if anyone knew about it, my son's reputation would be affected by you. Not only would you not be able to help, but you would also be a burden to him."
"What do you mean?" Shi Shi couldn't help but interrupt her.
"I don't know if you're pretending to be confused or if you really don't know, so I can only tell you directly."
"Didn't I tell you? I know your mother, so I also know your father."
"I can't accept you because of your father."
"Because your father is a murderer."
She seemed to be talking about a trivial matter in such a casual and nonchalant tone.
