Chapter 74 Seventy-four inequalities
Chen Yun was worried and even fell asleep in the end.
But she slept uneasily and could sense any slight movement around her, even though Song Fenglin was very careful when he got up.
As soon as he entered the bathroom, Chen Yun took out her cell phone to check the time, which showed 5:03.
She had a hunch that Song Fenglin wasn't asleep at all. She sighed, not knowing what to do, and simply closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.
Song Fenglin went downstairs after washing up, but it was completely instinctive.
In fact, his heart was empty and he just sat on the sofa in a daze.
I sat there until my mother-in-law got up.
When Liu Yingxia came out of the room and saw someone, she was startled: "Feng Lin, why are you here so early?"
Song Fenglin came back to his senses: "I ate a little too much yesterday, so I want to practice a little longer today."
Liu Yingxia: "One or two meals is not a big deal, but you need to get enough sleep to be healthy."
Song Fenglin responded, but his eyes were somewhat distracted.
He now felt a little uncomfortable in front of his elders and said, "I'll go practice for a while."
Liu Yingxia couldn't stop her from being positive, so she said, "Okay, I'll put more beef in it for you in the morning."
Song Fenglin nodded and walked to the yard and stood there.
After standing for a while, he finally remembered what he was going to do. His hands moved unconsciously, and slowly, as if to vent his emotions, he punched the air.
Liu Yingxia came to call him to have breakfast, and wondered why he was doing it so haphazardly, not even as organized as the old people doing morning exercises in the park.
Since she didn't understand, she asked, "What are you practicing today?"
Song Fenglin was not good at talking nonsense, so he picked one from what he already knew: "Military boxing."
Liu Yingxia had never received military training, but according to her understanding, anyone with this name must be heroic and valiant. She thought that perhaps her son-in-law had not trained well enough.
But as for children, encouragement is the main thing. She said, "They look pretty good."
Song Fenglin seemed to be choked by two steamed dumplings at the same time. He didn't know how to continue the sentence, but he felt much better: "I just practiced blindly."
Liu Yingxia believed everything she heard: "That won't do. We still have to practice hard and not hurt ourselves."
Then he said secretly: "Mom has money, I will enroll you in a class."
How could Song Fenglin accept it? "No, no, there are plenty of practice videos online now."
Liu Yingxia was worried about everything: "Then your eyes will be damaged."
Then she showed him her WeChat balance: "I'm really rich. I stole it from your dad."
Song Fenglin: “Huh?”
Liu Yingxia: "I don't know where he went that day and got drunk. When he came back, I took out his wallet. He didn't dare to ask when he couldn't find it. Let's see if he dares to do it again in the future."
Song Fenglin could imagine how distressed his father-in-law must be because he had been frugal all his life. He joked, "If Dad knows I got a share, I'll get to eat the spoils too."
Liu Yingxia: "It doesn't matter. He will just show his teeth to me at most. How can I lose to him?"
The old couple quarreled almost every day, but it was always loud and little action. In the first year of their marriage, Song Fenglin was often nervous about this, but he was relieved later when he realized that quarreling was a part of their relationship.
Perhaps from what she has seen and heard, this is the kind of partner Chen Yun wants?
If Song Fenglin was just confused last night, then now he is completely desperate, because he knows that he can never do it, and this relationship is inherently unequal.
He was always careful and had a correct attitude in front of Chen Yun, constantly reflecting on whether he had done anything wrong or not. He was as careful as the eunuchs around Cixi, fearing that he would displease others with the slightest mistake.
The fear of losing her permeated his entire marriage life, to the point that even the slightest frown from her would cause ripples in his heart.
Of course Song Fenglin wanted to satisfy her, but he was just an ordinary person, and everyone had their limitations.
Some things are beyond his ability, and he may never be able to do them in his entire life.
The two words "lifetime" dealt a heavy blow to Song Fenglin.
He felt unwell all over, and a feeling of dejection was spreading from his heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys.
But all emotions had to be temporarily restrained in front of the elderly above and the children below, and there was no difference in expression from usual.
No abnormalities were found in the old and young ones.
Like every day this summer, the two children still got up early.
Chen Xingyue got angry as soon as she got up and threw herself into her father's arms: "My little brother pressed on my hand!"
The wound she suffered from the fall yesterday wasn't serious after applying medicine, but any scratches on the little girl's skin were a big deal, and it was even more important to make use of the issue.
Chen Xinyang knew that he was wrong and explained: "I was careful!"
I really suffered from my lack of education and almost made my sister fall down in anger.
Song Fenglin corrected his son: "Say it was an accident and say sorry to your sister."
Chen Xinyang didn't know where he learned this, but he knelt down and bowed deeply to his sister.
This time the knee hit him hard, making a deafening noise.
Seeing his sincerity, Chen Xingyue said generously, "I forgive you."
She acted like a spoiled brat to her dad again: "My hands hurt."
The best way to comfort people is to exaggerate the good things about bad things. Song Fenglin knows this well: "Then you don't have to do your homework today."
Chen Xingyue was so excited that she almost clapped.
The lessons that the pain taught her were like passing clouds. Even though it had not healed completely, it did not affect her happiness. After breakfast, she happily followed her grandparents out.
As soon as the child left, the world suddenly became quiet.
Song Fenglin cleaned up the dining table, glanced at the stairs and went out.
The greenhouse where the wedding was about to be held was still bustling with activity, and relatives came to greet Song Fenglin.
He answered politely one by one, and his polite smile froze when he saw Chen Xiyang.
Chen Xiyang was in a good mood, and put his arm around his shoulder like a good brother: "It's so late today."
Song Fenglin is not the kind of person who would push the problem onto others, so he complained in his heart: Thanks to you, and said, "What should I do today?"
Relatives cannot be used as workhorses. Now basically everything is ready, except for the wedding tomorrow.
Chen Xiyang suddenly remembered: "It's okay today, but we'll leave to pick up the bride at 8 o'clock tomorrow, don't forget."
This matter had been decided long ago, Song Fenglin nodded.
I couldn't help but ask, "Have you guys reconciled?"
Chen Xiyang thought, isn't that obvious? He was in high spirits: "What's the point of getting along? We have always been fine."
Song Fenglin was envious: "Your wife forgave you so quickly?"
Chen Xiyang: "I forgave you after I scolded you."
Then he said with a bitter face: "I worked so hard to report false accounts to my father, and finally saved up three thousand yuan, but it's all gone."
Song Fenglin thought that since you hid some secret money, your wife would be willing to treat you well, so you could just smile secretly, and touched his trouser pocket for some unknown reason.
Talking about money is something that is difficult to handle in moderation.
But since the topic has come to this, Chen Xiyang took the opportunity to gossip: "How much pocket money do you get every month?"
Song Fenglin: "I'll keep the remainder of my salary and give the whole amount to my family."
Chen Xiyang knew that his salary was not low: "Then you can save a lot of money."
Song Fenglin: "When I save up until the end of the year, I will give Chen Yun a red envelope."
Chen Xiyang suspected that there was something wrong with his ears and was very disappointed: "Brother, you really can't do this. Private money is the dignity of us men."
dignity? Song Fenglin doesn't have this kind of thing in front of Chen Yun.
He wanted to give up everything he had and wanted to be controlled but was not welcomed. He suddenly sighed.
This is totally unjust. Chen Xiyang: "I should be the one sighing!"
Song Fenglin even used a pun: "It should be your dad."
Chen Xiyang was surprised by his "wit" and his mouth twitched: "Chen Yun actually likes this kind of humor."
Song Fenglin's mood, which had eased slightly, became even more tangled, and he lost the desire to talk to him: "I'm going to see the kids."
Listen to what you say, a grown man looking after a child. Chen Xiyang grabbed him and said, "Come on, let's play cards together."
He started calling out to his partners, and three or two people came over and said, "I heard that top students are good at counting and playing cards, right?"
Song Fenglin was put in a difficult position and it would be very disappointing if he said he didn't want to fight.
He had nothing to do anyway, and even the fun of being around his wife was temporarily lost. He said modestly: "Without school, my brain doesn't work very well."
At weddings and funerals in the countryside, people playing cards and watching others play cards are indispensable. Once the table is set, the place immediately becomes lively.
Chen Yun arrived late and just saw Song Fenglin shuffling the cards.
She didn't know why she started to have wild thoughts: Is Song Fenglin considered emotionally hurt? Will you start to indulge in some bad habits?
