There are roads in the mountains of books

"That baby shark that you and I bought at IKEA." My mother turned over, "It was on the bed last year, why can't I see it today?"

I fell into a brief silence.After all the calculations, I didn't expect it to be a miscalculation.The furnishings in the apartment were clearly arranged by me, except for the big shark, which was lying quietly on the sofa in Luo Wei's apartment.

I couldn't lie to her that the shark was lost.For such a big shark, how big is the forgetfulness to lose it.

I can't say that I think it's old and don't want it anymore.You don't need clothes, but dolls don't.

I have always been obsessed with dolls. When I was a child, I ate and slept with them, treating them as individuals with souls.Now that I have grown up, naturally I will no longer have such thoughts, but I will still take good care of them because of nostalgia.Later, I bought a big shark abroad. When I was alone, I had it as a companion, and my life was instantly more comforted.

My mom was very aware of my quirks and very understanding.Not only does she often clean sharks for me, but when she’s in a good mood, she also imitates me and communicates with it—even though she doesn’t have a good word—she likes to say, “Your sister Qiuyu doesn’t want you anymore.”

But I am very satisfied, after all, many people simply do not understand why people like dolls.My grandma is an extreme example.She came to my house when I was a child and lost many of my toys.She said that I was too obsessed and devoted too much energy to the doll, which is not good.

Such things are easy to become fine.

This is what my grandma said, and I cried for several days because of this, dreaming about where the dolls were sent, how they were doing, whether they were hungry.

It's been too long, and now that I think about it, I can't be sad anymore, I just feel that grandma is really ridiculous.I don't have to think about it, if I put in too much energy for a long time, I will become mentally ill, and my doctoral thesis should have been rolling on the floor and calling me mom.

"Ah, I've put the shark in for care," I said at last.

"Dirty?"

"Hmm... isn't it because I can't wash myself..." I whispered, pretending to be sleepy and speechless.

"Then remember to get it, don't let someone take it away." My mother nodded and said nothing.After a brief silence, the sound of breathing gradually became even. I thought she was asleep, so I turned around and got close to her, quietly feeling her heartbeat trembling slightly on my skin along the bed sheet.

After an unknown amount of time, the even inhalation sound in the air was suddenly interrupted.In the unfathomable silence, my mother moved her body, her voice calm and cautious.

"Qiu Yu, do you have a boyfriend?"

Chapter 49

"Qiu Yu, do you have a boyfriend?"

"No..." I subconsciously denied.The word "simple" seemed too blunt, I pretended to be calm and slowed down for two seconds, and added another sentence leisurely: "It's so comfortable to live without a boyfriend, it's not like you don't understand me."

"Tch," my mom immediately sighed contemptuously, "it was such a waste of fun. I thought you gave the shark to your boyfriend for safekeeping."

If it wasn't for the fever, my back would probably be covered in cold sweat at this moment.With so many twists and turns a single shark can associate, I began to wonder if I had underestimated my mother's ability to see things.She really knows me, but it's like... not that much.

Or, I don't know her that well—her reservedness, her respect for me from beginning to end, some words, maybe she has kept them in her heart, but she never said them out.

I licked my lips and my calf began to shake involuntarily.

"I'm doing pretty well by myself now. I eat cafeteria after work every day. I live a more regular and healthier life than anyone else." I found the topic with a guilty conscience, and I didn't forget to probe cautiously, "Mom, you just want to Am I looking for someone to marry?"

"Of course. During the dinner some time ago, my former colleagues basically have grandchildren. Aunt Xiao Wang, do you remember? Her granddaughter has just entered elementary school this year, and she already knows how to recite the nine-nine multiplication table..."

"...Mom, why are you still comparing yourself? This mentality is not good."

I was lying on the bed nervously, and my expression must be very ugly at this time.In the dark, I couldn't see her expressions and movements clearly, and she probably couldn't perceive my extreme helplessness. I began to feel lucky that this conversation only stayed at night.

Perhaps this is the charm of night chat.When I was an undergraduate student, whenever the night was dark and the curtains were drawn, the four people in the dormitory would start chatting with each other.The topics gradually focused, the more they talked, the more excited they became, and the more they talked, the more in-depth they became. In the dark night, there were only four voices whispering, like a deep and mysterious program on the radio.

People are most likely to relax their vigilance in the middle of the night. In addition to gaining weight, they are also prone to self-disclosure.Once I had a brain twitch and suddenly told my roommate in an atmosphere of love that I have someone I like.

yes people.Not a big shark, let alone a high number.

The bedroom immediately boiled.My roommates hustled me for more details, and tried their best to match me up.In order to refuse their kindness, I tried my best, and in the end I didn't hesitate to label myself arrogant and heartless.

It is too much trouble.I suddenly and nervously realized that tonight I must be careful with my words and actions.

"I'm just talking casually," my mother replied, "Actually, I don't expect you to have children. Young people don't expect children to provide for the elderly anymore. It depends on whether you like it or not."
