After sitting down during the dinner, while my mother was going out to wash her hands, Suman asked me quietly: "What did you say to my mother just now?"

I pursed my lips guiltily, "No, it's nothing, I just told her that she has something to do to me, don't, don't embarrass you..."

"..." Sumante looked at me speechlessly for several seconds, and finally sighed. "You are not allowed to talk nonsense later, I will handle everything, do you hear me?"

How dare I say that I didn't hear it. When I looked up, my mother came back with her head held high and she sat down beside me in a unique style.

The dishes were all prepared in advance. Suman had already asked me about my mother's taste, so the dishes I ordered were all my mother's favorite, and intentionally or unintentionally, he took the credit for me. "Auntie, these dishes are all prepared by Sigui, and I don't know if they suit your taste. If you don't like them, I'll ask them to make them."

"No, it's pretty good." It seems that my memory didn't betray me. My mother's face obviously improved after seeing that the few dishes served were her taste.

Eating food intermittently, I thought my mother was just talking casually when she said opening a branch, but she started seriously discussing the tea market in S city with Suman.That's all, what really amazed me was that Su Mana did enough preparation work, it was impeccable, didn't they all say that the lines are like mountains?She was able to chat with my mother for so long without any embarrassment, and everything she said made sense, as if she understood.

After dinner for a while, I rubbed my already full stomach, watched the two people chatting as if no one was there while drinking a drink, and wondered why my mother was so condescending this time and didn’t mention anything about me and Suman. Could it be that the purpose of coming here is really just to open a branch here?But everyone knows Murphy's Law, right?What I'm afraid of, what I said is right, I just relaxed a little bit, but the chat on my mother's side came to an abrupt end.

"Sigui, we talked so much just now, did you listen carefully?" my mother said.

Embarrassed, I just shook my head. "Mom, you also know that I don't know much about the tea business, nor am I interested in it."

I raised my eyes, hey, I read it right, why did Suman seem to wink at me?I was thinking about what I said wrong again, and my mother had already dropped a bomb over there: "I don't understand or don't want to understand? Not interested, um, let me ask you, what are you interested in? Talk Falling in love, fooling around?"

This topic is a bit heavy, I blinked, "Mom, it's time to eat now, let's not talk about it first?"

"Is everything ready?" My mother asked, but her tone did not allow for no at all.

"Mom..." Looking down at the cold leftovers on the table, I really can't say that I didn't eat well.

"Auntie, why don't I take you to the hotel to rest first." Suman smiled.

"Miss Su, I want to talk to my children now." My mother smiled slightly, but her eyes only fell on me from the beginning to the end, and she didn't even look at Su Man.

Although the tone was not serious, the attitude in the words clearly meant to shut up Suman.My heart tightened, and when I was about to speak, I was shocked by a warning look. I took a look at Suman's serious expression, and immediately swallowed the words that came to my mouth.

My mother took a sip from the teacup, glanced at Suman, and then at me. "Sigui, you go and settle the bill first." Then he took out a card and handed it to me.

Su Man was taken aback, "Auntie—"

"Don't argue with me. As an elder, I should pay the bill." My mother directly interrupted Suman and gave me a glare. "Not going soon?"

"Oh..." No matter what, I suspected that this was what my mother meant to keep me from having a private chat with Suman. There's nothing wrong with her calm expression, I gritted my teeth, forget it, I'll go and come back soon.

I almost ran to the front desk to settle the bill, and then rushed back to the private room, and it took three to five minutes.As soon as I opened the door, I saw my mother and Suman sitting in their seats with normal expressions, so I felt relieved and sat back.

"Auntie, what I just said to you is from the bottom of my heart. Of course, you have the right to be suspicious of me, but I hope you can give me and Sigui some time, and we will prove it to you." Seeing me running back panting, with a pale face, Suman gave me a comforting look.

I was startled, what did Suman and my mother say just now?By the time I go to checkout, their chat has risen to that level!

My mother held the teacup and sipped lightly, and smiled slightly when she heard this. "With all due respect, Ms. Su, do your family know about you and Sigui? You may be unhappy if I say these words, but as an elder, especially when it concerns the happiness of my daughter's life, I have no choice but to say these words." Don't say it, I hope you can understand."

"I understand." Seeing that the teacup in front of my mother was empty, Suman got up to refill her cup, carefully filling it to only [-]% full. "Trust me, I'm the same as you when it comes to caring for Sigui."

My mother looked at the cup in front of her and seemed to ponder: "Miss Su also understands tea."

"It's just fur." ​​Suman sat back, "When the tea is full, it will overflow, and if it is full, it will be over. Being a human being is actually the same as the tea ceremony. Although I don't like it, I also know that I can leave a little room for everything. "

"Well said," my mother nodded approvingly, "then why are you so self-willed to block your retreat now? You are different from my underachiever daughter, Miss Su has always been very clear about what she should do What kind of person, with all due respect, why are you so confused about the trade-offs now?"

"Auntie, you are right. Before I met Sigui, I always knew what I should do and what I could do." A strand of hair slipped playfully from behind my ear, and Suman raised her hand to gently hook it , while speaking, her eyes had swept across my nervous face, and she smiled slightly. "It's just that fate sometimes repeats like this. I met Sigui, and she changed me."

"Miss Su trusts my daughter so much? Is she so sure that she will always like you and treat you well?" Seeing that the persuasion failed, my mother began to sow discord. "Frankly speaking, I know my daughter well. She is kind by nature, doesn't like to fight, and has a dull temper. She is the kind who doesn't bark at ordinary times and bites directly when something happens."

"Mom!" I almost knocked on the dining table with black lines on my face, what kind of metaphor is this, I am a human being, not a dog!

Suman's expression was also a bit complicated, but he couldn't interrupt, so he had to let my mother continue talking. "I misunderstood you? Since you were young, you have done everything I arranged for you. This is not because you are willing but because you are too lazy to argue. It is not an important matter anyway. In your words, you are not interested. However, if it is true Touching the things on the top of your heart, how could your reaction not make mom heartbroken? Ms. Su, I know best about the child I gave birth to. She has never been tortured since she was a child, and she has almost no ability to resist pressure. Overwhelm her easily, are you sure you want to go on with her forever? Her world is too simple, so simple that as long as you are there, it may be enough, but ask yourself, can you give her such a pure life? If one day she chooses because of injury Escape—oh, believe me, it's very possible."

"Auntie, I believe that Sigui will not change her mind, and I will not hurt her again." Suman looked at me with a nervous and depressed face, and said slowly. "I am five years older than her. In my eyes, she is often like a child. She will be willful and make me worry. However, she will also bring me the warmth and pure affection that I long for and can't reach. Frankly speaking, at the beginning I was worried that she was only a child with me, and it came and went quickly. But you can also see that we can come together again after two years apart, who can doubt each other's heart again? At least, I can't."

My mother failed to provoke her for the first time, and she was very unwilling, and said: "You two are in a good relationship now, but it doesn't mean that you will be good for the rest of your life. Then let's not talk about Sigui, talk about you, can you guarantee that you will treat her well for the rest of your life? You I won’t say anything about your family background, but I heard from Situ that you still have a fiancé now. Heh, Miss Su, if the tea is full, it will overflow, and if it is full, it will pass away, don’t you understand this truth?”

"Auntie, I will definitely resolve the matter of engagement. I hope this will not be your reason for rejecting me." Su Man was startled, and said quickly.

Seeing that my mother even brought out the matter of her fiancé to stab Suman, my heart hurt so much that I was tearing my flesh. "Mom, Suman forced herself to get engaged because of her mother. They don't live together. She has nothing to do with that man."

"Hehe, look at his filial piety, why didn't you get engaged for your mother?" My mother quickly sneered back.

I was stunned speechless by her.Seeing that I shut up, my mother said again: "What's more, is it something you should say? Are you the person involved? You believe everything others say. You have not changed since you were a child. I really protected you too well!"

"Aunt--"

Suman turned pale, and was interrupted by my mother when she was about to speak, and my mother smiled slightly. "Miss Su, don't mind, I'm just educating Sigui."

This openly and secretly poking Suman's sore spot with a gun and stick even implied that she might not be innocent with her fiancé. Suman chose to bear it for me, but I couldn't bear the pain for her. Only her pale face and gloomy eyes remained. "Mom, married people can still get divorced. Who in this world can guarantee a lifetime? If I die tomorrow, who will seek justice for her for the life I promised her? Mom, I know you It hurts me and worries about me, but don't you think it's too much to ask Suman like this? If someone talks about it, you must say that you don't believe it, and she is full of words. But if she says she doesn't know, you just arrest her She stopped and said she was not sincere to me. Mom, if I were not gay today, and I brought a man back to you, would you ask him to do the same? You definitely would not, you are just bullying Suman, bullying her is just like me Woman..." I said, tears could no longer hold back and fell out of my eyes.

"Thinking back—"

Suman's distressed eyes hit the bottom of my eyes, and my heart trembled, but the tears fell even more fiercely. "Mom, you are my own mother, it doesn't matter how you stab me, but don't stab her like this... She has enough to worry about when she is with me, she is so tired at work, and she still has to take care of me, what does she owe our family? Didn't you just happen to like me..."

"You two women want to be together, you make sense, right?" My mother was slightly startled by my words, crying and shouting, and it took a while to recover and said in a cold voice.

"Mom, please, just accept us!"

I didn't want to continue entanglement, I picked up my mother's teacup and knelt down to my mother with a bang, my mother's face turned pale, and she stood up on the spot and stretched out her hand to pull me. "Sigui! Get up! How did your mother educate you since childhood!"

Suman also stood up, looked at me in shock, and remained silent for a while.

I raised the teacup over my head, and said with a choked voice, "Mom, if you promise me today, you can drink this cup of tea. If you don't, you can turn your head and leave, but I will always kneel here, waiting for you to drink." This cup of tea."

"Threatening me?" My mother sneered a few times and sat down angrily.

"Sigui, don't do this." Suman walked to me and stretched out his hand to help me, his eyes were crystal clear. "Let's talk when you have something to say, don't do this."

"Don't worry about it." I pushed her away, not wanting her to suffer any more grievances, "This is about me and my mother, don't worry about it."

"Auntie, can you listen to me?" Seeing that I couldn't be pulled, Suman turned to my mother and said.

My mother turned her face away, and she just said coldly after hearing the words: "Why do you still ask me now, if I say I don't want to hear it, why don't you say it?"

Suman didn't mind my mother's stinging attitude, she put her hand on my shoulder, and she said in a deep voice: "The matter between me and Sigui may be just a farce in your opinion, but I will try my best to prove it to you Look, we seriously want to be together. My parents don't know about it yet, and I do have a fiancé, but none of these are reasons for me to let go of Sigui. I'm just waiting for an opportunity, It is an opportunity to minimize all harm. As for your concerns, I can understand, but I will not break up with Sigui because of your disapproval, let alone make Sigui sad again because of your opposition. Auntie, you can hate me, but don’t be angry, she will always be your daughter, she loves you, you shouldn’t doubt it.”

There was a sudden silence in the private room, which lasted for several minutes, so long that I almost felt that the arm I had been holding up was about to break.My mother and Suman didn't talk anymore, but just when my arm holding the teacup had reached its limit and I was still holding on, causing the whole person to slam forward, both hands stretched out in front of me at the same time.One pair is white and slender, showing deep love and distress; the other pair is printed with the annual rings left by the painstaking efforts for the children for more than 20 years.

At the same time as his eyes were hot, his body was already pulled up by Suman and hugged into his arms, and the cup of tea in his hand was suddenly held in my mother's hand.
