Can't speak

Just after seven o'clock, the door of the ward was opened, and Mother Jiang appeared at the door with an anxious face and a tired body.In the ward that had been silent for a long time, Father Jiang sat on the head of the bed and closed his eyes. Jiang Bai, who was sitting by the side, still had an ugly expression. Seeing his mother coming, he finally let go of his heart that had been hanging around for a long time, and then began to feel weak, and stood up to greet her. ,

"mom!"

"How is it? Your dad's injury?"

Mother's anxiety is all on her father. She doesn't have the ability of divination and prediction. She doesn't know so many things about her daughter. It's only her husband who is worried.

Hearing his wife's voice, Father Jiang slowly opened his eyes and looked over, heaving a sigh of relief: "You're here."

Jiang's mother, who was exhausted from the journey, couldn't help worrying when she saw her husband's bandaged head. She threw her luggage on Jiang Bai's body, jumped on it, checked her whole body, asked several questions about the injury, and got a specific answer, so she was relieved. , sat down on Jiang Bai's chair, took a deep breath, and then began to count,

"You two, can you make people worry less? You said you are so old, what kind of day did you pick for this kind of thing to happen? And you Xiaobai, how do you take care of your father? What? If something happens to him, let’s see how I deal with you! Ah? And what’s the matter with you? Resigned in a good way and got involved in a pyramid scheme?”

"Mom, I can't explain this to you for a while. Have you eaten yet? I'll buy it for you. You can sit with my dad for a while."

"A dead child counts you as having a conscience! Hurry up, I'm starving to death, hurry up and buy it back! It's killing me in Shenzhen, it's hotter than at home! It's autumn!"

Changing the topic with one sentence, Jiang Bai exited the ward in a daze, his shoulders collapsed, and he was at a loss for what to do.She had had enough of the day, and she really didn't want to bother with another parent.Her father's words made her feel down to the bottom, and his resolute opposition made her choose difficult.

In the end how to balance the two phases?

After leaving the hospital, go out and buy some fast food.The proprietress went to the hotel to pick up Jiang's father's things and went back to the store. Even if there was still food to eat, she couldn't let her deliver it.Although the restaurants near the hospital are not overcrowded during peak hours, many people are still buying food.Jiang Bai lined up and took out his mobile phone to send a message to the proprietress: My mother is here.

--So fast?and you……

The proprietress didn't know what to ask when she replied, Jiang Bai's head was empty, and he didn't know what to reply to her, so he simply told her a bad news: My dad wants to break us up.

Well, it's time to come. 1 minute later.

——What should I do then?

——I don’t know, he wants me to go home, he won’t let me stay here, and he won’t let me stay with you.

Another 1 minute pause.Jiang Bai can imagine that the other party paused after seeing the news, squinting his eyes, frowning and sighing.

— This day is always coming.what did your mother say

——She doesn't know yet, my dad told me to say it myself, I dare not!

This time Liao Ying came back quickly, with temptation, anxiety, and hesitation: Then what do you want?

So, Jiang Bai hesitated, thought for a long time, and didn't know how to return...

At this time, her fast food was packed, and she couldn't help being sentimental, so she quickly exited the chat interface to scan the QR code, and rushed to the hospital in a daze.The proprietress over there waited for her reply or her exact attitude, but after waiting for a long time, she suddenly felt cold.

Maybe it's because I feel my daughter is cowardly, or maybe I'm annoyed by my wife's constant questioning, Jiang's father actually explained a few important things during the time when Jiang Bai went out.Including Xiaobai's resignation and current situation, being entrusted with a heavy responsibility by the police, the hotel accident, and the prisoner Liao Guanghai all talked about it one by one, but the biggest and most difficult thing about Xiaobai falling in love with a certain girl was that he couldn't say it.

Mama Jiang went through these few incidents roughly, and it was difficult to string all the incidents together. The only thing she couldn't figure out and was extremely curious about was naturally the case of Papa Jiang being smashed.

"So, why did that prisoner beat you? You've only been here for a day and you offended someone?"

"Of course not. Ask Xiaobai when she comes back later." After finishing speaking, Father Jiang closed his eyes again, not sure if he was resting or thinking about something on his mind.

And his really preoccupied appearance made Jiang's mother worried, and she felt that things must be not that simple, and it was closely related to Xiaobai.Before she could think of anything, the person at the heart of the incident returned.

Jiang Bai entered the room and put the bag on the table, then turned to look at his mother sitting there,

"Mom, I ordered your favorite roast duck, lettuce, ribs and vegetables, and a soup. Let's eat first."

The mother looked at her, then looked at her husband who was unwilling to speak and opened his eyes. She glanced around twice, and saw that the flickering in her daughter's eyes was even worse. She frowned in doubt, and she was not in a hurry to eat.

"Xiaobai, tell me the truth, are you hiding something from me? When did you father and daughter become so weird? Tell me if you have something!"

"..."

silence.

Jiang's mother obviously did not have the patience of Jiang's father. After waiting for no one to say anything, she couldn't help but urge: "Are you talking?!"

The people who were urged were flustered, looked at the father who was still out of sight and out of mind, sighed deeply, and replied: "Mom, you should eat first, and I will tell you after I finish eating." I am afraid to say it first You can't eat it anymore.

Jiang Bai left such a sentence and hurriedly exited the ward.

"Tsk! Damn child!!"

Jiang Bai, who escaped like a refugee, felt exhausted and tired to a certain extent.why why?Why does everything happen in one day? !Why did she have to come out to her parents in two rounds? !Why can't she let her breathe? !Why was she so unlucky to mess with Liao Guanghai? !Why? !

Because of Liao Ying!

None of these things would be possible without her.But without her, I wouldn't be who I am now!

Xiaoying, lady boss, what should I do?

On the other side, the proprietress, who was so distracted, couldn't sit still in the store for a moment. She waited and waited, and finally got through the peak of her favorite meal in the past. Taking advantage of the large decrease in customers, she explained a few words to the two shop assistants. I couldn't hold back my eagerness and went out the door.

It was already nightfall, the neon lights on the side of the street were gradually flickering, pedestrians tended to take a walk after dinner, the traffic on the road was surging, Liao Ying didn't care to wait for the bus, and directly stopped the car and rushed to the hospital.

It wasn't until she got outside the ward that it took only a short while to realize that her impulsive behavior was a little uncertain whether it was appropriate.The brightly lit corridors and rooms seemed to have entered another world, in stark contrast to the darkening sky outside, and also pulled her mood from anxious and gloomy to stable and bright. He stopped, and there was a faint sound coming from the crack of the door that was not fully closed, Xiao Bai's voice.

"Mom, the prisoner who injured my father is named Liao Guanghai, and he is my girlfriend's father."

The air was silent, and the three of them changed their faces because of this sentence.Mother Jiang's face changed drastically, Liao Ying's face changed slightly, and Father Jiang's face changed slightly.

A few seconds later, the middle-aged woman's voice came out, much louder than Jiang Bai's, with obvious puzzlement and eagerness,

"girlfriend?"

"..."

"Xiaobai, it's your dad who hurt his head!"

Although she has never met, Liao Ying can completely imagine Jiang's mother's expression when she said this.What kind of bewilderment should that be...

"Mom, I'm serious." Jiang Bai's voice was firm and his tone was stronger.

Liao Ying outside the door raised the corners of her eyes, unconsciously raised the corners of her mouth, and continued to listen.

"I like girls, and I already have a girlfriend. She is a very good girl. I...have been with her for a few months, and now we live together..."

At the end of this sentence, Liao Ying's face was burning badly, and her heart was also burning hot. The strange feeling floating through the door could not stop her from shouting deep in her heart: Damn Xiaobai, you are so good!I read you right!

There was another continuous silence. After a while, the voice came out again. It was Mother Jiang's excited and trembling question: "You... know everything?"

Inside the house, Father Jiang's eyes were on his daughter, and after being questioned, he turned to his wife. He nodded slowly, and then, no longer wanting to speak, he closed his eyes again.Mother Jiang's expression as if struck by lightning was even more ugly at this moment, she stared at Jiang Bai fiercely,

"Do you know what you're doing? Still living together?!"

Jiang Bai took a few deep breaths back and forth, and after a while, he straightened his neck and raised his face, with a firm expression and incomparable courage: "Yes, we are together, we have lived together, and we are veritable lovers. Dad, Mom, I hope you can understand me, I don't like men, I only like women." After speaking, her face was already blushing, half excited and half ashamed.

"I don't allow it! I don't care if you are out of your mind or have some kind of disease! You move out of that woman's house immediately! Come home with us!"

Mama Jiang was no less calm than Papa Jiang, she made more ruthless orders and yelled out with anger and excitement.The faces of Jiang Bai in the room and Liao Ying outside the room changed color at the same time.

"I don't! Mom, why am I sick?! Homosexuality, this is not a new thing now! Do you know that Taiwan has recently passed the same-sex marriage law, and same-sex marriages are also allowed. There are already many people in the world. Same-sex marriage has been legalized in some countries and regions. What does this mean? It means that it is the same as heterosexuality, equal and reasonable, and there should be no differences and discrimination. Now many people have disclosed their homosexual orientation, from political celebrities to the public. When it comes to ordinary people, some even hold high-profile weddings, I don't believe you haven't seen this kind of news...Parents, you have to be careful..."

Jiang Bai knows that now is not the time to talk, but what his mother said really hurt her, and she can't help it!Don't say that she is a closet, she is the same, even a passerby, can't let my mother have such a concept.

This kind of stupid and backward thinking, the concept of being entrapped by the world, and the irrationality shown by the rationalization of the minority are all Jiang Bai is extremely reluctant to see, especially his relatives.

However, what she said did not pick the right time.Mom and Dad were shocked by their daughter coming out of the closet, how could it be so easy to accept and digest her avant-garde thinking, which they thought was so avant-garde, they were stunned quietly by her seemingly well-founded talk, and turned their heads around After that, it is still unacceptable,

"You don't have to be full of reasoning here. I don't understand or understand. Our family just doesn't accept it! That girl, you two are together, do you marry her or she marries you? Bah! Our country has no same-sex marriage law, you You can't get married either! You can't be together!"

As soon as this remark came out, Jiang Bai Liao Ying tacitly stored a big mouthful of blood in her heart and wanted to spit it out.

Mom, why don't you play your cards according to the routine!

Outside the door, Liao Ying's waist began to feel sore and her legs became numb. What she heard on this trip was enough to worry her, and at the same time, it also made her feel more at ease.How to put it, Xiaobai's attitude of daring to come out of the closet and trying to get together gave her even more firm determination and confidence.

Next, the conversation in the room was brought to another point by Mama Jiang, who did not follow the routine.

"Then tell me why that woman's father beat your father. Tell me, is it because people also know about you two and blame your parents? This incident shows that most people are Those who cannot accept homosexuality, homosexuality cheats parents, it is not worth advocating!"

"..."

This rogue-like theory really made those who listened feel embarrassed.Mom, even if we don't know the truth, we can't force our brains out like this, it's a fallacy!

At this moment, Jiang's father, who had already been so shocked, blushed. The child's mother who was standing on the same front as him was so frightened that she closed her eyes fiercely, not wanting to look at these two people again.And Jiang Bai on the side, except for his face of wanting to cry without tears, is the corner of his mouth twitching, unable to refute the fallacy.

Now that Liao Guanghai was involved, another key figure outside the door felt that it was time to make his debut.Xiaobai, it's really hard for you.

Then, when several people in the ward were silent, the door was knocked and pushed open, and Liao Ying's petite and straight body appeared there, her face was disturbed yet determined, and she spoke,

"Uncle and aunt, I am Xiaobai's girlfriend. I want to explain to you personally about my father Liao Guanghai."

The author has something to say: I don't know what's wrong, I wrote and wrote Jiang Ma as a funny comparison...
