"Mom, how are you? Are you feeling better?" Chu Yifeng pushed open the door and looked at his mother with concern.
Liang Yinqiu pounded his chest and shook his head.
Before she opened her mouth to speak, she turned her head to look at the mirror door of the large wardrobe in the bedroom. Somehow, she felt fragile and tears dripped down her face.
She thought that crying in front of her son was inappropriate and would only cause trouble for her son and would not solve the problem.
But for some reason, when I saw my tall and straight son coming back, the feeling of grievance came over me even more.
If it weren't for my daughter and son...
If my son hadn't gotten married yet...
In Liang Yinqiu's heart, this time is different from the past. She really can't live anymore. She has had enough!
For more than 30 years, the couple had experienced ups and downs. He went to the battlefield several times, and she stood at the door holding their daughter and looked at his back many times. She could recite all the words he said to her about life and death, and she even received his suicide note once.
During those hopeless years, she watched, hoped, and waited.
She always believed that a marriage that had been baptized by the smoke of war should be the purest and could stand the test of time, even though she was still young and ignorant when she married him.
She prayed at that time, not for the life of an official's wife, but just for a stable home. Her parents were dead and her brother had left, so he was all she had.
So when one day he came back safely, no longer going to the battlefield, and gave her a stable home, she was extremely grateful!
Even though her mother-in-law was difficult to get along with, she could endure it and just focus on her own career without taking it seriously.
Just because he was wronged, he tried to smooth things over in front of her and her mother-in-law. When they were alone in the room, he would say, "It's hard for you!"
Just because of his words "It's hard for you" and "He understands", she never takes her mother-in-law's scolding to heart.
I always remind myself that the two of them, as a couple, had no background at all, but they supported and accompanied each other with such difficulty.
The only remaining head of the family is this old lady.
But now, Liang Yinqiu is confused. She is almost at retirement age and really doesn't want to continue like this. In the past two days, she has been asking herself: Should I endure it or not?
It wasn’t her mother-in-law’s fault, but there might have been a difference in ideas between her and Chu Hongtian, which caused problems.
Her own brother! He only thought that his brother had been an "enemy" and never thought about his brother Liang Yinsheng as his brother-in-law!
When her mother-in-law came back, Chu Hongtian knew exactly what his mother was like, but he didn't even go home to see her.
Even more outrageous was that he actually sent his driver to take the old lady out for dinner when the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were arguing so fiercely, as if... as if he was telling her, announcing to her that from now on, he and his mother were family. No, it was his mother he couldn't abandon, but Liang Yinqiu could be ignored!
The nature is different from before, it has changed!
…
Chu Yifeng sat by the bed and waited for a long time but there was no response from his mother. He could only tilt his head and watch his mother's tears falling down, sighing in his heart.
Chu Yifeng's mother is good in every way. Among so many family members in the military region, his mother is really well-known.
Even during his rebellious period, he felt that his mother was a waste of his father, a rough and loud father, because he only yelled at him and loved to raise his arms and slap him!
But we have to admit that human nature has its pros and cons.
His mother has a very clear understanding of people and things, but her personality is relatively dull and she doesn't like to take charge of things. Otherwise, she would have been the head of the Women's Federation Party Group by now. However, she is now very comfortable as the deputy secretary.
But then again, if it weren't for his mother's peaceful nature, she would have fought his father without waiting for the war with his grandmother. Well, maybe even Chu Yifeng wouldn't exist.
Most people couldn't understand his General Chu. In the past, his mother was a peacemaker, and a simple poke would break his father's arrogance. But this time...
"Mom, don't cry. If you feel unwell, I will accompany you to the hospital for a check-up.
If you feel uncomfortable, let me tell you, men cannot be spoiled!
"Just ignore General Chu and that's it! You're fuming over and over again while he's in the military district, with a staff officer, a confidential secretary, and a service officer serving him, and he's living a life of luxury!"
Chu Yifeng took out a handkerchief from his trouser pocket, thinking about the words and continued to coax her:
"Besides, you have a job, so you should go out more often and spend less time with my grandma. I'm afraid she'll become more and more frustrated. So, you should just give in first!"
Liang Yinqiu forced a smile, wanting to laugh but unable to. "If I don't go home, it will be even more troublesome. Besides, your grandma is like that. Oh, I'm used to it."
Chu Yifeng frowned slightly: "It's a habit, but it also makes me feel upset! Xiaoci and I talked in the middle of the night. Look at my grandma, ah, this is just my grandma." After thinking about it, he went home to persuade them to reconcile, so as not to make things worse, and continued:
"But, Mom, we have to admit, this little building wouldn't be lively without my grandma here! If you're annoyed, just say you're busy at work. My sister's got a lot of work to do at the company, so she probably doesn't have time to take care of the kids. If you have time, go see your grandson, and tell my grandma you're working overtime. Xiaoci isn't a kid you need to worry about."
Liang Yinqiu wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, bursting into laughter, trying to look okay. "You should keep an eye on the time. There's something going on at the military headquarters, so go get busy." After a moment's thought, she added, "Son, you're 26 now. If you find the right girl, you should think about getting married, okay?"
This was the first time Liang Yinqiu urged Chu Yifeng. Chu Yifeng didn't notice the change in her heart because his mind was in a state of confusion. He quickly stood up and said, "I know, Mom, I know what's going on."
