Chapter 706: This scares me
Mi Cai and I took off our coats and sat around the dining table with our father and others. Wang Zheng opened the bottle of Lao Chen wine and poured some for us. After my mother brought the cooked sausages, we all brought the cups and clinked one.
The taste of the old wine was very good. We all subconsciously smacked our lips and savored it. I put down the wine glass and first picked up a piece of sausage for Micai, but stuffed two slices into my mouth. So, the vigorous smell made me feel the taste again, but when I closed my eyes and enjoyed it, I was accused by everyone of not having any food!
I quickly picked up three more pieces of Micai and signaled her to eat together, but she didn't expect her to reply: "Do you want to make me like you have no food?"
"No, I just want to see if you can share the hardships!...Didn't you say that you can marry a chicken and follow the chicken and follow the dog!"
Mi Cai looked at his father Ban and his mother and said, "Uncle, aunt, have you seen it? This is the crisis transfer that Zhaoyang is best at. He always makes a sound, as if he doesn't make him happy. He is just a person who has no moral character than him!"
Dad Ban and his mother looked at me, and at the same time they looked unhappy... They knew that I was thick-skinned, so of course they chose to protect Micai! But they didn't want Micai to pick up the three slices of sausages and put them in their mouths. After eating them with a happy expression, they said, "But, I wish I could eat more sausages made by my aunt... It's so delicious!"
Dad Ban and his mother looked at each other and smiled helplessly. The mother sighed: "These two children are both nasty. In the future, we will give birth to a eldest grandson. I wonder what it will be like?!"
Ban Dad took over and said, "Bad can be divided into wisdom and rogues. It's better for our grandson to be like Zhaoyang in the future!"
"Dad Ban, although I am very wise, you really don't have to praise me like this. You also say that Mi Cai is a rogue... This will affect family harmony!"
My mother stretched out her chopsticks and hit me: "Shut up...! I think the one who affects family harmony the most is you, you are in trouble all day!"
I was very embarrassed, but Mi Cai looked at me gloatingly, as if she had found a backer in this family where she was about to live for the rest of her life, but I became the poor person with the lowest status, but I didn't care, because this is how my family is. We often regard this small dispute as a source of joy. We all hope that Mi Cai can integrate into this family and obtain the happiness that we rarely experience from the family members.
......
The atmosphere was always very good halfway through the supper, but my mother still inevitably asked Mi Cai and me, "Have you got your household registration book this time?"
Mi Cai and I immediately put down the chopsticks in our hands and felt hesitant for a moment because we cannot lie. Even if Dad and Mom believe it, we will still show their marriage certificate in the end. We will inevitably show our confusion at that time, but to be honest, it is a cruel reality for them...
Mi Cai gave me a look and signaled me to tell the truth...
I had been brewing for a long time and finally said, "This is the thing... When we went to Suzhou, Mi Cai's mother also returned to China. She hoped that I could marry into the Mi family and go to the United States with Mi Cai, otherwise she would not agree to our marriage... Now we can't get a household registration book and can't get a household registration certificate, so we can only drag it like this, wait and see if there is a turning point!"
The expressions of Dad and Mom suddenly became solemn. In the end, Dad, who was always calm, asked, "What do you think?"
This time, Mi Cai answered, and she said: "Uncle, aunt, Zhaoyang and I have the same views on this matter. First of all, I personally cannot forgive my mother for doing something wrong. Furthermore, Zhaoyang is your only son. If he immigrated to a foreign country where he did not want to go in order to accommodate me, even if he achieves his goal, I will not feel comfortable... The most important thing is that I really like my current life, and there is the warmth of family here... Going to the United States, there is only machines, money and a fame and fortune market that cannot be avoided. These are not what Zhaoyang and I pursue... So, we will stay in Xuzhou and hold the wedding first. As for getting a marriage certificate, there will always be a solution!"
The faces of father Ban and mother finally relaxed a little. The mother said, "Yes, the child...... to this point, no one wants you to separate again. Although Zhaoyang's father and I don't want you to live in the United States, for your future... we are still willing..."
Speaking of this, my mother seemed to have imagined the scene of our departure. She immediately fell into a collapse. She never continued to say it, just wiped her tears... I felt a little heartbroken. I saw the weakness of ordinary families in this incident again, so Yan Zhuomei was a strong demand, and my family could only accept it... I hated such unfairness, so the idea of not going to the United States became more determined! How could I bear to see the helpless and painful compromise between Daddy Ban and Mom?
.........
After talking about this topic, the atmosphere at the dinner table could never be returned. Even after dinner, Li Xiaoyun and his wife asked us to go out for a walk and refused. Mi Cai and I returned to our new house early. After washing up, we lay on the bed and looked at everything fresh in the room...
After a long time, I finally asked Mi Cai with some trepidation: "If we insist on doing our own thing, what measures will your mother take to stop us from being together?"
Mi Cai shook her head blankly and replied, "I don't know... I can only pray that she is scaring us!"
"Let's make an assumption now, what will happen to her industries in the future if you don't go to the United States?"
"Leave it to the government, or let my uncle's son inherit it..."
"If the final outcome is really like this... her life is meaningless!"
Mi Cai looked at me and asked, "So she is definitely not scaring us, right?"
I subconsciously swallowed my saliva and replied for a long time: "...No matter what she thought, I believe that now we can take on everything together!"
"I have no problem, but... but you make me feel uneasy. I always feel that I can convince you and give you a lot of positive information... But just like the sentence you often say on your lips, behind human nature is the white clouds and gloomy dogs... For me, the deepest part of your heart is more volatile than others!... This sentence comes from you and is most applicable to you... It makes me feel scared!"
I stared at her with wide eyes, and gradually the saying "Behind human nature is the white clouds and dogs" seemed to turn into a shackle that locked me firmly... I looked back at myself and found that many things had been made before I could figure it out, as if there was always a mysterious force in my heart that drove me to make decisions and choices based on my understanding of myself... I seemed to see the depths of myself at this moment, but I didn't know what it would look like in the next moment...!
