"Mom, what's the matter with you?"

"No, I'm just flustered, Xiaoji, promise me, you will get married properly, right?"

"Mom, what are you talking about? Didn't I promise you that you would get married? But you also promised me that as long as you get married, you will let me return to the army."

"Okay, I just hope that you can leave me a grandson. Look at my sisters who have one or two babies, can I not be in a hurry? I said that everyone has decided on this marriage, and you should also go to Ms. Li more often." See you, I have met that girl several times, and she is very good in every way."

"Mom, I will get married well, so don't worry about it."

"It's been so many years, and I haven't seen the girl from that family. How can you not worry about me?"

"No one can tell you about feelings. It may be that fate has not arrived! Ever since I woke up from the hospital, I always feel empty. Mom, do you think I have not only hit my brain, but also lost Heart, haha..."

Hearing this, Mother Tang's face suddenly changed, she panicked and said, "How...how could it be? Stop talking nonsense, you are a bridegroom-to-be now, do you hear that?" Mother Tang suddenly became serious.

"Okay, I see, Mom, just put your heart in your belly!" Tang Ji said with a smile.

After seeing off Tang's mother, Tang Ji's expression became serious. He felt that today's mother seemed to be different from usual, and this seemed to be related to Xiao Yuan who suddenly visited today. How could it be?Did he really know him before?But why didn't he say it?

In the evening, Tang Ji suddenly had a dream, a very messy dream. In the dream, there was a person drifting away from him, and he couldn't catch him no matter what...

In short, in Tang Ji's words, it was a strange dream.

＊＊＊＊＊＊

"Mom, I'm back." After receiving the call, Xiao Yuan rushed back without stopping, but it still took a day and a night. Xiao Yuan's mother had already come out of the emergency room. Luckily, the operation was a success. The rest will only look at the later stage of recovery.

"You... Nizi, you still know how to come back." Father Xiao walked in front of Xiao Yuan with a cold face, his raised hand trembled slightly, but never fell down.

"Xiao Nanshan, if you dare to fight, I will fight you hard." Xiao's mother struggled and said.

Xiao's father took a deep breath and let it out, then retracted his hand and went back to support Xiao's mother.

"Yuan'er, come here, let me take a good look at you." Mother Xiao stretched out her hand to Xiao Yuan.

"Mom." Xiao Yuan walked to Xiao's mother's bed with red eyes, and squatted halfway beside the bed, sobbing.

"You see that you have lost weight. You have lost a lot of weight outside, right?" Xiao's mother touched Xiao Yuan's thin face and said.

"No, Mom, I was wrong." Xiao Yuan lowered his head and said.

"How dare you say that?" Father Xiao said angrily.

"Shut up, I gave birth to my son. If it's wrong, it's my fault. I didn't give birth to my son well." As Xiao's mother began to cry, she suddenly stretched out her hand and beat Xiao Yuan lightly. With you, there is no parent in the world who knows how to hate their son. If you let you go, you will never come back. How sad you make me and your dad! I asked your dad to call you and he would not call. If I hadn't almost gone this time, would you never plan to come back for the rest of your life? Ah? Do you know how afraid I am that I won't even have a chance to see you for the last time, so I would close my eyes, you unfilial son, you... ..." Xiao's mother couldn't continue crying, so she stopped beating and lay on Xiao Yuan's body, Xiao's father's eyes were also red, and he turned around uncomfortably.

"I'm sorry, I was wrong." At this moment, Xiao Yuan knelt on the ground, he couldn't say anything other than sorry. At the beginning, the matter between him and Tang Ji was caused by Tang's mother. Before that, Xiao's father and Xiao His mother was proud of him, but he did not expect him to do such a thing. Xiao's father couldn't accept such a thing for a while, so he grabbed the broom angrily and started beating him, kicking him out of the house and telling him never to come back. He thought that he would shame his parents and hurt the heart of his mother who devoted himself to nurturing him, so he really didn't come back. He didn't expect his departure to be the most sad thing for his relatives.

"Okay, let's stop talking about this." Xiao's mother wiped her tears, pulled Xiao Yuan up, held Xiao Yuan's hand and smiled with tears in her eyes: "It's a good thing for you to come back, so you should be happy. I can’t do such stupid things anymore, parents will always be the strong shield of the child, don’t look at your father’s face, but at first he secretly checked a lot of information behind my back, and I found out later, Let's watch it together. Some of them say it's a disease. I don't believe it. My son is so good and good. How can he be a sick person? If you don't like girls, we don't want girls. Anyway, you always hate us women. Trouble, if you find a young man you like in the future, we will treat it as having two sons, but..." Mother Xiao glanced at Xiao Yuan and sighed, "Son, do you still like that young man back then?"

Xiao Yuan kept silent.

"Yuan'er, we accept you if you like men, but you are not suitable for him! Your father and I are ordinary people. As long as you live well, we are happy. We can't afford to mess with that young man's family! Your father secretly asked someone to inquire about it. The family is rich and powerful, and they all have political and business careers. That young man seems to have joined the army. How could such a family condone such a thing? Besides, this time he will I didn't come back with you, tell me the truth, are you still together?"

"..." Xiao Yuan lowered his head and shook his head.

"..." The ward became quiet for a while, Father Xiao had already left at some point, and the only sound in the ward was the breathing of the two of them.

After a long time, Xiao Yuan raised his head and said, "Mom, I will never have anything to do with him again."

"well."

Xiao's mother had an operation, and she was agitated just now, and fell asleep after chatting for a long time. Xiao Yuan closed the door gently, turned around and met Xiao's father just in time.

Father Xiao looked up at him and said, "Come with me." Then he walked towards the end of the corridor.

Xiao Yuan followed Xiao's father to the corner of the stairs, and called out without confidence: "Dad!"

Xiao's father was silent for a while and nodded, "Yeah", the two of them looked at each other in silence, Xiao Nanshan took out a cigarette a little annoyed, but Xiao Yuan reached out and stopped him.

"Dad, smoking too much is bad for your health, you should smoke less in the future!"

Xiao Nanshan broke the cigarette and threw it into the trash can before turning around and asking, "How is your studies?"

"I took a break from school for a year, then repeated my studies for a year, and passed the university entrance examination in city M. Now I am a senior student and have signed a contract with the company." Xiao Yuan briefly explained some things in the middle, and gave Xiao's father a brief account of these years. .

"It's all you alone?"

"Ah."

"Leaving home before graduating from high school, it's good to be able to do this. You are still my pride." Father Xiao said with some relief.

"..." Xiao Yuan was still a little guilty. He used to be the pride and hope of his parents, but he didn't do well and broke their hearts.

"Have you ever thought about going abroad for further study? I just called your uncle. He admired you very much. It just so happens that I have an opportunity now. If you are willing, you can leave when your mother is in better condition!"

After a while, Tang Ji should get married too!Xiao's father originally wanted Xiao Yuan to think about it, but he didn't expect Xiao Yuan to agree.

Because this time he didn't want to let his family down again.

It's okay, we are far away from each other, maybe if we are farther away from you, maybe we won't miss you so much.
