Xu's father couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry, so he turned the turntable of the round table and said to Yi Sisi: "Girl, we don't know what you like to eat, but the abalone sauce with Liao ginseng here is quite famous, try it. "
Yi Sisi thanked her with a smile, lowered her head and put a mouthful of food into her mouth. Xu's mother's voice came over suddenly: "Yeah, eat more, you must have never tasted it before." The tone was flat, without intentional sarcasm, but entered into the strangeness that could not be expressed in the ear of the listener.
Yi Sisi chewed patiently, she never knew that Liao ginseng in abalone juice would be so bitter. Yi Sisi swallowed with difficulty and smiled as usual.
Tired physically and mentally after eating a meal, Yi Sisi carefully observed Xu Xiangxuan's attitude. There was always a layer of film between him and his parents, and his tone of voice was also polite and alienated. Xu Xiangxuan didn't say many good things for Yi Sisi, he seemed unwilling to disobey his parents, and kept communicating with Yi Sisi with his eyes. On the other hand, Xu Xiangyang, when talking to his parents, there is always a kind of reckless indulgence in his tone, and he can tell at a glance that he is a child who grew up with tolerance. Xu Xiangyang defended Yi Sisi all the time, and Xu's mother had accusations in her eyes, but more of it was helplessness.
Back home, Xu's father arranged a guest room for Yi Sisi, and Xu's mother obviously looked worried. Yi Sisi knew that Xu's mother was actually just having a heart-to-heart knot, and she was particularly concerned about the woman's family conditions, not just targeting her, so she tried her best to behave neither humble nor overbearing, and her advances and retreats were well-founded.
At night, Xu Xiangxuan sent Yi Sisi into the guest room.
"Yi Sisi, you have been wronged. I"
Yi Sisi covered his mouth and said softly, "I'm fine, your home is very comfortable."
Yi Sisi thought to herself, in fact, she was already very satisfied. The plot in the novel where the wealthy mother threw a check into the face of the Cinderella heroine and let the heroine go away is not realistic after all. After all, Xu's mother has the reserve of an intellectual, not a local tyrant with a low education level. She was just a little cold towards Yi Sisi, and didn't embarrass her by doing too mean.
Unexpectedly, Yi Sisi woke up from the cold in the middle of the night. I was surprised that there was no warmth in the whole room, and the thin blanket was completely cold. In the north, there is usually heating in winter. This villa is supposed to be heated by geothermal heating. Yi Sisi stepped on the floor, and even the floor was ice.
Yi Sisi's heart suddenly turned cold. I wanted to send a text message to Xu Xiangxuan, but when I saw the three o'clock in the middle of the night displayed on the phone, I gave up the idea and wanted to go out and get some hot water for myself, but everything here was extremely unfamiliar to her, and she was even more embarrassed to enter without permission. kitchen.
Yi Sisi curled up and wrapped the blanket tightly, but couldn't fall back asleep.
The next morning, Yi Sisi heard a knock on the door and Xu Xiangxuan's voice in a daze. His frozen body struggled to get up, but Xu Xiangxuan had already opened the door, feeling the difference between the guest room and the outside, his face changed suddenly, as cold as this room.
Xu Xiangxuan rushed to Yi Sisi's side, touched Yi Sisi's cold skin, and looked at her bruised lips, frightened out of his wits. Xu Xiangxuan wrapped her with his body, and asked eagerly: "Yi Sisi, why are you frozen like this? Why is it so cold here? Why didn't you tell me?"
Yi Sisi said with a trembling voice: "Iit's fine"
Xu Xiangxuan hugged Yi Sisi without hesitation, and rushed out. There was an uproar in the living room, and Xu's mother just finished her voice: "They are all PhD students, and they are so lazy that they need someone to wake them up."
Xu Xiangxuan said sharply: "Shut up¡ª"
Yi Sisi was almost frightened and hugged him hastily, Xu Xiangxuan's face had never been so vicious.
"It was you who did it, right?" Xu Xiangxuan's sharp eyes shot at Xu's mother again.
Father Xu frowned: "How do you talk to your mother? What's the matter?"
Xu Xiangxuan said "Ask her", turned around and walked to his room.
Carry Yi Sisi onto the bed and wrap her in the quilt. Xu Xiangxuan immediately entered the private bathroom, turned on the faucet, and poured water into the bathtub. Immediately returned to Yi Sisi's side, rubbing Yi Sisi's hands with warm big hands.
Facing Xu Xiangxuan's thoughtfulness, Yi Sisi couldn't control the feeling of grievance for an instant, burst into tears, heartbroken.
Seeing that Yi Sisi regained some strength, Xu Xiangxuan carried her into the bathroom, where Yi Sisi lay lazily in the hot bathtub with tears dripping into the water.
"Yi Sisi, let's go back to America tomorrow."
Yi Sisi just shook her head vigorously: "No, she hasn't accepted me yet. A marriage without the blessing of my parents will definitely not be happy. Xiang Xuan, I want to have a stable future with you, we can't give up."
There was a light in Xu Xiangxuan's eyes, and he nodded towards Yi Sisi: "You wait for me." After finishing speaking, he left the bathroom.
Yi Sisi didn't know what medicine Xu Xiangxuan sold in the gourd, soaked in the bathtub, held back her tears, and calmed downFeeling emotional, the body finally warmed up. Dry yourself, put on your clothes, and go out to find Xu Xiangxuan. There was a heated argument in the living room.
"If you apologize, you will have an extra daughter-in-law. If you don't apologize, you will not have my son." It was Xu Xiangxuan's voice.
Xu's mother's voice was trembling with excitement: "I didn't do this at all. I don't know who turned the unused guest room into no floor heating at night. Besides, why should I apologize to the younger generation? Don't even want it, it's just unfilial."
Yi Sisi hurried to Xu Xiangxuan's side to stop him.
"Xiang Xuan, I'm fine." After he finished speaking, he didn't know whether he was choking too anxiously or he was really freezing, and coughed violently.
Xu Xiangxuan became even more flustered, hugged Yi Sisi in front of the whole family, and kept asking her if she needed to go to the hospital.
"Sure enough, you will pretend to be cute and pitiful." Xu's mother couldn't bear it, and finally sarcastically.
Yi Sisi instantly became the focus of everyone's attention, and Yi Sisi forced herself to raise her head firmly, to meet Xu's mother's eyes, and then swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and the clear words flowed out of her mouth:
"Uncle, aunt. I came to your home with Xiangxuan, hoping that our relationship can be affirmed and blessed by you. In private, I hope that you can repair your relationship with Xu Xiangxuan, and the family will be more harmonious. Auntie, I know you have some opinions on my origin, it doesn't matter, I believe you will downplay your prejudice and get to know me gradually. Because I will prove to you that life's poverty and wealth do not determine the height of a person's soul. I have enough Knowledge and cognition, independent thinking ability and spirit, strong vitality and strong self-confidence, stand on the same platform with Xu Xiangxuan to look into the future. Auntie, please don¡¯t blame Xiangxuan for his recklessness, I understand your difficulties and intentions .Please allow me to earn your trust, because all I know is that if I don't earn your trust, I don't deserve his future."
