Mo Yan arrived in a new dimension, this time as an old woman, currently making a late-night snack, with chicken soup simmering on a gas stove. She was also making wontons.
The original owner's daughter works hard outside and can only come back during the Chinese New Year. She has never had a boyfriend, which worries the original owner a lot.
Every time my daughter comes home, she asks me this question and arranges many blind dates for me. I just hope she can get married soon so she can have someone to rely on in the future. I also hope she can stay in our hometown and be by my side.
But her daughter disagreed. Every time she came back, the first day was a time of loving mother-son harmony, but the second day they would start arguing endlessly, and her daughter would leave immediately.
It's almost Chinese New Year, and the original owner called her daughter to come back for a blind date. The mother and daughter had a big fight, and she didn't know if her daughter would come back.
What the original owner didn't know was that her daughter was also very tired. Life was hard, work was already tiring, and when she got home she had to deal with her mother, listening to her mother say that she was unfilial, that she didn't have a boyfriend, that her job was bad, and so on. She was very tired.
She didn't even dare tell her mother when she was sick, afraid that if she did, she would be subjected to endless nagging and constant scolding for not taking care of herself. On the day she returned, she was in a car accident, but she didn't know it.
Her soul has returned here.
Upon her return, she was met with her mother's continued scolding and endless arguments, with her being pressured to get married soon. Having no attachment to this world, she died.
The original owner was heartbroken and sacrificed his soul to fulfill his daughter's wish, hoping that his daughter could wake up, exchanging his life for hers.
There was a knock on the door. Mo Yan went over and opened the door to see her daughter, Jin Fei, nicknamed Xingxing, pulling a suitcase.
"You're back?" Mo Yan looked at her gently and reached out her hand. "Come in quickly, are you hungry? I'll make you chicken soup wontons, and some cold chicken salad, okay? Do you want some scallions?"
"Add it." Jin Fei was a little worried and a little cautious.
I was afraid that my mother would bring up topics she didn't want to discuss.
She forgot she had been in a car accident and just thought she had gone home.
"Okay, I'll add it for you."
Mo Yan added yin energy to the wontons, giving them a physical form.
Her soul is unstable right now because she's not quite dead yet.
Jin Fei smelled the aroma. For some reason, the wontons smelled especially good today, making her want to eat them right away.
The moment she put it in her mouth, it was indeed delicious, and she ate it in big mouthfuls.
After I finished eating, I noticed my mother not far away; she looked much older.
I don't know when it started, but my mother's hair has turned completely white... and there are many wrinkles around her eyes.
This time, even his body was much more hunched over.
She lowered her head and continued drinking her soup, not daring to look any further.
"Is it tasty?"
Mo Yan had arrived at some point and sat down next to her.
She was a little dazed, but the moment she looked up, she saw her mother's smile.
"Mmm, it's delicious. I'm tired and want to go rest."
She was afraid her mother would ask about her job and boyfriend, which would make her very irritable.
"Go on, get some sleep."
Mo Yan readily agreed and told her to go and rest.
This relieved Jin Fei greatly, and she quickly went back to her room. The moment she entered, she smelled a faint, pleasant fragrance.
"Mom, what's that smell?"
It's sandalwood.
But there's no need to tell her that. "No, maybe I sprayed some floral water when I was cleaning this afternoon. You should get some rest."
When Jin Fei woke up again, she heard someone coming from outside. She knew immediately that it was the gossipy aunt from the village.
"Has your Jinfei come back for the New Year? My son actually called me and said he's not coming back, saying he's too busy. Busy my ass! I don't believe him at all."
Mo Yan smiled, poured her some tea and gave her some melon seeds, "Have some peanuts and melon seeds."
The other person didn't stand on ceremony, took it and started eating, saying as they ate, "You're still talking, has your Jinfei come back yet?"
"She's back. She came back late yesterday. I told her to get some rest because she was too tired outside. She should rest more now that she's back."
The other party clearly disagreed, "That won't do. They're so lazy when they're out there. When they come back, they should follow the family's lifestyle, get up early and eat together, otherwise what's the point of coming back?"
By the way, does your Jinfei have a boyfriend? When are you planning to get married?
"Your daughter isn't young anymore, is she? Should I ask someone to introduce her to a few men?"
In the past, the original owner would have sighed deeply and spoken loudly to let her daughter know.
"I don't want my daughter to get married so early, and I have no plans to arrange blind dates for her."
Jin Fei, who had been listening intently, was stunned when she heard this.
"Why? Your daughter is almost thirty. If she doesn't go on blind dates soon, she won't be as popular in a couple of years."
As women get older, they become nothing.
"No, my daughter is still young, I'm not in a hurry at all. On the contrary, I'm afraid she'll be anxious. If she chooses someone unsuitable because of compromise, she'll suffer a lot in the future. As long as she's happy, I'm fine with being single, let alone waiting a while."
Back then, we thought that once we got married, we could work hard together. Now my daughter is working incredibly hard, so what do I have to be afraid of?
The other person seemed a little embarrassed; she had come specifically to introduce potential partners. "Well, you can take a look first. I have a few men here around your daughter's age. Would you like your daughter to chat with them?"
Mo Yan quickly waved her hand to refuse, "That won't do. My daughter doesn't have time. She's only back for a few days, and I wanted to take her around to see the sights. There's just not enough time."
There's no need for blind dates. She'll naturally meet someone she likes when the time is right. I hope she starts a relationship because she likes someone, and then gets married because they're compatible.
The original owner actually understood everything, but she never told her daughter because she always wanted her daughter to get married as soon as possible, so that someone would take care of her and she wouldn't have to worry about her if she were to pass away one day.
"Aren't you being too optimistic? What if your daughter never gets married? Aren't you worried then?"
The other party clearly didn't believe it, thinking that Mo Yan was just saying it.
"No rush. It's my daughter's life, she can live it however she wants, as long as she's happy."
Jin Fei felt very wronged after hearing this in her room. It wasn't sadness, but rather a feeling that all the grievances she had felt outside suddenly came out after hearing her mother's words.
The grievances from unpleasant interactions with friends, the frustrations of being scolded by the boss, and the general dissatisfaction with life all surfaced.
She wanted to cry so badly, she really wanted to cry.
She really cried, tears streaming down her face.
She had been on edge ever since she came back, telling herself that it was almost Chinese New Year and she shouldn't argue with her mother, and that no matter what happened, she should always go along with her mother.
So what if it's a blind date? It only lasts a few days anyway.
I even thought that if I argued with my mother, I wouldn't have to suffer in silence; I could just turn around and leave without any hesitation.
But at this moment, hearing her mother's words, tears streamed down her face.
