"Sister, aren't you happy that I'm coming back?"
Liu Duidui on the other end of the phone was a little unhappy because he didn't get the enthusiastic response he had imagined.
"Happy, of course I'm happy. I haven't seen my sister for so long. When will you be home tomorrow? What do you want to eat?"
Of course, Lin Yao couldn't say, "Don't come back just to give mom and dad a reason to fall in love." She could only talk to Liu Duidu in a very happy tone while looking worriedly at her mother who was in a daze beside her.
"Sister, is mom here?"
The two sisters talked for a while, and Liu Duidui also wanted to talk to her mother Haiyao.
"Mom, yes, I'm looking for you."
Lin Yao handed the phone to Haiyao.
"Yes, yes, when will you arrive? Mom will make you something delicious." Haiyao picked up the phone and spoke in a happy tone that matched her little daughter's expectations.
"I want to eat sweet and sour pork ribs, braised chicken feet and crayfish!"
Liu Duidui was also very happy, and her voice was full of joy and happiness.
"Okay, Mom will make it for you. Be careful on your way back. Oh, your brother-in-law said he will pick you up. Please send your flight number to your brother-in-law when he arrives."
"Yeah, wow, Mom, I missed you guys so much!"
After speaking a few gentle words to her little daughter, Haiyao finally hung up the phone.
Then, the smile on her face became slightly strange, and the others looked at her silently, and the atmosphere in the living room became slightly awkward.
"Mom, aren't you going to Jiangzhe with Dad tomorrow?"
Finally, Lin Yao couldn't help but ask, "Now..."
"Let's talk about it after Dui Dui comes back. I'm a little tired. You guys should get some rest early too."
Haiyao smiled and walked back to her room.
"Husband, what should I do?"
Lin Yao asked, pulling Fang Xiaole's arm.
Fang Xiaole was at a loss for a moment and looked at Song Yan again.
Song Yan sighed helplessly and said to Lin Yao:
"Actually, the key is not whether you will come back or not, but the personalities of your mom and dad. Your dad is too old-fashioned, and your mom is a bit idealistic.
She always wants to make her life as passionate as her first love every day, but your father is obviously not a romantic man and does not know how to make a woman happy.
The biggest problem between the two of them is their incompatibility of personalities."
Song Yan originally didn't want to say it so directly and disappoint her daughter-in-law, but judging from the current situation, although there is still affection between Professor Lin and Haiyao,
But both of them obviously don't know how to maintain this relationship, or even deepen it, so as to return to the state when they were in love and married.
Or, is it that the two people's active yet incompatible relationship is more to fulfill their daughter's wish, to give her a real home, and to make up for the harm caused to her by the divorce?
The reason why Song Yan chose to say it directly now was that she didn't want her daughter-in-law to continue holding on to that beautiful but illusory fantasy.
Judging from Song Yan's bold personality as a Shuchuan woman, if two people get along well, they can be together. If they don't get along well, they should not force it and waste each other's time and energy.
Lin Duanzheng and Haiyao are not that old now, especially Haiyao who is not yet fifty. They actually have plenty of time to make other attempts and pursue happiness that suits them. There is really no need to get together so awkwardly and torture each other.
"Xiaoyao, it's not that Mom doesn't support you. I just don't want you to have too much hope now, and end up with even greater disappointment. Can you understand?"
Song Yan held Lin Yao's hand and spoke softly.
Lin Yao lowered her head and was silent for a moment. Suddenly, she looked up and smiled:
"Mom, I'm the one who made everyone worry. When I was little, I always envied other people because they had their parents by their side. I wished my parents could be together again.
But I never thought about why my parents divorced in the first place. If I could stand up and help them mediate when they were arguing, maybe the result would be different.
Now that I have grown up and am about to become a mother, I have begun to understand.
Maintaining a family is not only the responsibility of parents, but also the responsibility of children.
When I was a kid, I wasn’t brave enough. Now my parents have to work so hard to force themselves to fulfill my unrealistic wish.
Mom and Dad, you don't owe me anything. It's me who shouldn't be so selfish."
"Xiaoyao..." Song Yan felt distressed. She held Lin Yao's hand tightly and hugged her in her arms.
Fang Xiaole felt even more distressed and wanted to hug his wife to comfort her, but his mother got there first. He could only stand there with his hands outstretched, sighed, and raised his hand to gently stroke the hair by Lin Yao's ear.
"Mom, husband, you are my family too. You are so good to me. Actually, I am very satisfied now."
Lin Yao was embraced by her mother-in-law. She stretched out her hand and held hands with her husband. The TV screen behind the three of them flickered, the lights above their heads were gentle, and the slightly salty summer air was floating in the air. The smell of home was quietly spreading and settling.
Fang Xiaole suddenly realized something and glanced sideways, and saw that his mother-in-law's bedroom door was quickly closed.
"Okay, Xiaoyao, you need to rest in bed. Don't stand for so long. Lie down quickly and let's watch TV!"
Song Yan and Fang Xiaole helped Lin Yao lie down on the sofa. Song Yan clapped her hands and said, "Oh, I forgot to watch the drama! Come on, son, take out your phone and cast the screen!"
"What drama?" Fang Xiaole didn't react.
"That drama of yours, Long Live the Dragon! Yesterday, they showed Li Bi having his power over the Jing'an Division taken away by those bad guys, and Zhang Xiaojing was also captured. I was so pissed!"
Song Yan urged her son while recalling yesterday's events.
