My 26-year-old Female Tenant

  I sat at the table and ate the hot meals my mother had prepared, while my mother sat opposite me and accompanied me, and my dad still kept his original posture and sat on the sofa watching TV.

  It doesn’t hurt if you don’t move your heart, so I didn’t let my emotions affect my appetite, and I ate voraciously under the control of hunger.

   "Zhaoyang, do you know how old you are after this year?" Mom finally spoke the first sentence to me.

   "\'."

   "Well, I'm not confused yet!"

  I stopped chewing, looked at my mother, and said for a while: "Mom, why do I feel that you always think of me as a fool? It's okay as usual. Is this the first day of the new year suitable?"

   "Aren't you stupid, can you do so many outrageous things? Tell me, what kind of life should a \'year-old man be?"

   "Marry a wife and have children, and stabilize your career. Is this answer reliable?"

   "Reliable is reliable, but look at yourself, do these eight characters have anything to do with you now?"

  I shook my head with low confidence and said: "No... But since the second half of last year, I have been working hard following these eight words. You must not deny me on this point."

   "I don't deny you, but you have to tell me the results of your hard work."

   "Mom, this is not something that can be accomplished overnight, how can it be achieved so quickly?"

   "Whatever you say about you, you have a way to quibble... I don't want to nag you this New Year's Eve, so I just ask you one thing."

   "You ask, and I promise to give you a tonal statement."

  My mother nodded and said, "Tell me, after finishing the work in Suzhou, do you plan to return to Xuzhou?"

   "This... I'm really not sure about this right now."

The mother's complexion suddenly became displeased: "You silly child, I don't expect you to wake up by yourself. I will do this for you. I will give you another two months. I'm going back to Xuzhou...It just so happens that your dad and I also use this time to ask relatives and friends to borrow some money to help you pay the down payment for a house, and then you can stay in Xuzhou to find a job and pay off the mortgage yourself!"

   "Mom, how can I let you and my dad worry about the house, I'm so old, I really can't bear it, even if I buy a house, I have to find a way..."

  My mother sneered: "Find a way by yourself? When the house price in Xuzhou drops to two or three thousand one flat, I have to weigh it up and see if you can do it."

My face was suddenly dull, and I knew that my mother was clever. She just wanted to use a house to completely trap me in Xuzhou. If I really bought a house and got a high mortgage, I would be dishonest. .

  But what can I do, my miserable years have already caused my mother to completely lose confidence in me. Thinking about it, I have really failed, so failed that no one is willing to give me a little trust.

  Ban Dae, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke at this time. He said to his mother: "I don't agree with borrowing money to buy a house. This matter should be resolved by him. We have fulfilled our obligations as parents by supporting him to finish college."

   "Old Zhao, you're wrong to say that. We've been busy all our lives just for our son? Buying him a house is not to pamper him, but to put some pressure on him, otherwise he won't know how to calm down."

   "Let him walk his own way. If you hold him and support him like this, he will not be able to walk steadily for the rest of his life."

"Old Zhao, why are you so relieved? Let me tell you, half of the reason why our worrying son has become what he is now is because you indulged him. If you were willing to take more care of him, he wouldn't be able to get along with Xiao Yun Nong broke up... What a wonderful girl, I feel bad when I think about it now!"

  I felt useless in my heart, and I was even more afraid that the two of them would quarrel over my affairs on the first day of the new year, so I hurriedly said: "Father, Mom, you two must not quarrel, especially not for me, it's really not worth it..."

  Ban Dae said nothing, but my mother said angrily: "Zhaoyang, if you don't want to see our family in a state of turmoil, you should calm down quickly."

   "Mom, just tell me how to be down-to-earth? Can't I listen to you?"

  My mother sat back on the chair again, and said to me: "I'll call Xiaoyun later, and you can find a place to make an appointment to chat in the evening, and see what Xiaoyun thinks now."

  I felt helpless, and smiled wryly for a while and said, "Do you think I'm still ashamed to recruit Xiaoyun?"

"Why are you so embarrassed as a boy? I will call Xiaoyun now. If Xiaoyun says she doesn't want to see you, I will never force you. If Xiaoyun is willing, you can go out and meet her at night." one side."

  After finishing speaking, my mother didn't even give me a chance to speak, and immediately took out her mobile phone and dialed Li Xiaoyun's number.

  After a while, the call was connected, and my mother handed the phone to me after saying a few words, and said, "Xiaoyun wants to talk to you, look at other girls who are not as shy as you are!"

   I can’t tell you how hard I am, so of course Li Xiaoyun doesn’t have to hold back, because she has never been sorry to me, but I am ashamed of her.

After receiving the phone from my mother, I felt my heart beating faster. I desperately thought about the opening sentence in my mind, but the moment I put the phone to my ear, I was completely silent until Li Xiaoyun's strange voice came from the other end of the phone. Another familiar voice.

   "Zhaoyang, are you on the phone?"

   "Um... this, that... I'm listening!" My first sentence was incoherent.

  Li Xiaoyun smiled and said, "Have you stuttered in Suzhou?"

  Li Xiaoyun made a joke, I finally relaxed, and then said in a normal tone: "No stuttering...Happy New Year, Xiaoyun!"

"Happy New Year."

  I fell into silence again, because the two people who broke up couldn't talk about the past or the future, and there was really no topic to talk about.

  My mother winked at me, and I urgently wanted to resolve the awkward silence, so I simply let my mother wish, and finally said to Li Xiaoyun: "Are you free tonight? I'll treat you to coffee."

  Li Xiaoyun smiled, but did not speak.

  I hurriedly said: "If you don't have time, forget it, don't force it!"

   "If you are free, you are free, but you have to tell me if you came here empty-handed again this time, and let me pay the bill in the end!"

   Facing Li Xiaoyun's ridicule, I felt embarrassed and sad for a while. At this moment, I think Li Xiaoyun is really a very good girl, and she accommodated my poverty and abjection when we first met.

   After a long silence, I said something very serious in a joking tone: "Don't worry, I still saved some money. As long as you want, the coffee will make you vomit."

   "That's fine, at eight o'clock in the evening, it's still the same coffee shop."

   "Well, see you at eight."

  …

After finishing the call with Li Xiaoyun, I returned the phone to my mother, and my mother looked at me with admiration and said, "You look like a man, talk to Xiaoyun at night, the temperament of a girl It will only be for a while, if Xiao Yun really still misses you, he will give you a chance."

   "Mom, don't expect too much. The date with Xiaoyun tonight is completely imposed by you. I guess Xiaoyun is the same as me. I can't save your face, so I reluctantly agreed."

"Whether Xiaoyun is looking at my face, I don't care... It's still the same sentence, if Xiaoyun is willing to forgive you, you can live with her well, if she doesn't have any feelings for you, Zhaoyang, I will Absolutely not forced."

   "Mom, what you said is so clear and righteous!"

"Small smelly and poor, give me a good chance at night. I have a little understanding of the situation of that Suzhou girl. She is not suitable for you, Zhaoyang. Don't have that dream of wanting to eat swan meat anymore. Hurry up and take it easy." Accept, do you know?"

   I felt bored again, and I didn't say anything. As for Li Xiaoyun, I prefer to chat with her as a long-lost friend.

  …

  After the torment my mother gave me, I finally went back to my room to rest, and then took out the engagement diamond ring that I had given to Li Xiaoyun from my bag.

   Staring at this diamond ring for a long time, I made a decision, I plan to **** this ring, and then go to Aji to redeem the guitar that Jane Wei gave me.

It seems absurd, but I have already lived absurdly enough, and I don’t care about being absurd again, at least I can fulfill my promise to Jian Wei after this absurdity, and face her frankly from now on, from this point of view, it’s also considered It's not ridiculous anymore.
