Chapter Six I Think I Can Live Alone
Sui Xinlei is not unaware of Tang Meijia's good intentions, but she really has no plans to talk about marriage at the moment, even though she has already become one of the "leftover girls".
"Mika, I don't think that women must marry to be happy. Women can also rely entirely on themselves, and life can still become beautiful."
Yes, these are Sui Xinlei’s true thoughts. She has always believed that a person can live a wonderful life. Why do people have to get married? And once a person reaches the age of talking about marriage and does not get married, it will definitely lead to strange things.
Vision? Isn't marriage just a matter of two people? Why should it attract attention from unrelated people? Sui Xinlei really can't figure this out.
"Besides, don't I live a good life now! Stop worrying about my affairs. What you should worry about now is your marriage and be your bride." Regarding Tang Meijia's kindness, Sui Xinlei was sincere.
grateful.
"But Xinlei," Tang Meijia did not completely agree with what Sui Xinlei said. Women cannot completely rely on men. However, the traditional concept of "men should be married when they are young and women should be married when they are young" still occupied Tang Meijia's thoughts. She sighed.
He said in a very serious tone, "Sometimes, even though we don't like or even don't want to do some of the things we do, we still do them. Why is this? Sometimes the decisions we make are not for ourselves; we are
For the people around us, such as our dearest people - our parents."
Tang Meijia patted Sui Xinlei on the shoulder, and then continued: "Think about your parents, think about them, you can completely ignore the comments of people around you, but your parents can't be so free and easy, they have to face less pressure
It will not be less than you, or even more than you imagine. Which parent in the world does not hope that their children can have a happy family? This is their biggest wish."
Originally there were a lot of rebuttals in her stomach, but after hearing these words from Tang Meijia's mouth, Sui Xinlei was speechless for a moment. Yes, she had never thought about the pressure her parents faced.
How long has it been since I was busy with work and didn’t call home? Every time I called home, I could still hear my mother on the other end of the phone nagging with concern, asking if she had a boyfriend, etc.
Later, one time I yelled impatiently at the other end of the phone because of the heavy work pressure. Every subsequent phone call turned into a short conversation like this: I only heard the life stories of my parents on the other end of the phone.
Caring, nothing else. As for myself, I only respond with "um" and "ok" and then "goodbye" every time and hang up the phone.
Over time, this seems to have become an unspoken tacit understanding between Sui Xinlei and her parents. Sui Xinlei understands it, and her parents understand it too.
The reason why they are like this is because they are afraid that if they continue to care about their daughter's emotional life, they may never hear the voice of their daughter who is not in the same city as themselves. They are afraid that their daughter will be affected by this.
Ignore it anymore, what kind of sadness is this? Every time she thinks of this, Sui Xinlei feels as if her heart is blocked by something, and she feels very uncomfortable.
Although it feels uncomfortable, and although I feel that I am sorry to my parents, there are some things that I just can't say in person. If I can't say them, I have to take action. During the New Year and festivals, or when I see clothes that suit my parents when I go shopping, Sui Xinlei
I will buy it, hoping that these material gifts can make up for my parents' mental regrets and make myself feel better.
Sui Xinlei has always had such a wish in her heart: one day she will bring her parents to her city, buy a big house for them to live with her, and take care of her parents in their later years.
Therefore, Sui Xinlei has been working very hard and making money. She wants to realize this wish sooner.
"Xinlei, just listen to me, maybe you two are destined?" Tang Meijia stretched out her hand to cover Sui Xinlei's hand, "It's good to make friends! Or..."
Tang Meijia's eyebrows moved, and she stared deeply at Sui Xinglei, who was playing with a silver fork with her head lowered:
"Or, you can't forget him?"
