Chapter 86 Sweet
At this moment, Zhan Chong's cell phone rang, indicating that there was a new message.Zhan Chong thought that Liang Xiu must have missed him, so he quickly took out his phone to look at it.
After seeing the content of the news, Zhan Chong immediately choked on the meal he just ate, coughed continuously, and his eyeballs almost fell into the screen.
Shen Man poured a glass of water for Zhan, and patted him on the back lightly. After Zhan recovered, he immediately couldn't hold back a lewd smile on his face, put down his chopsticks, and began to text Liang Xiu back.
——What is this? He is a decent person, so he doesn't understand.
Liang Xiu quickly replied:
——I'm serious, you choose one!Or you can stay out of it tonight.
The corners of Zhan Chong's mouth almost reached his ears.He could imagine Liang Xiu's current appearance just by looking at this line of words - he must be very shy, his fair face would turn red, and then he would force himself to be serious and answer text messages to himself seriously.Liang Xiu with that appearance was simply too delicious, and Zhan Chong felt dry just thinking about it, so he quickly pressed the keyboard to reply him.
——Then the one on the left, it looks like a European and American brand, and it must be big in size.Also, since you want to buy it so sincerely, let's use up the box tonight!
—Go away, goodbye.
Brother Xiu is angry, it's so funny.Zhan Chong held his mobile phone and laughed like an idiot, and then the atmosphere at the dinner table became more and more weird.
Zhanping coughed and said seriously: "Don't play with your phone while eating."
Zhan Chong responded and put down the phone, but the smile on his face still couldn't stop.
Zhan Ping got angry looking at him, suddenly put down his chopsticks, glared at Zhan Chong and said, "Why are you smirking? It's inexplicable! You think you are still young, and you will be 30 in two years. I don't care much. I don't want to talk about you for whatever shitty things you do all day long!"
The meal couldn't be eaten well now, and everyone put down their bowls and chopsticks.Then Zhan Ping began to educate Zhan Chong again, repeating those words over and over again, saying that Zhan Chong is the only seedling in the family, he must pass on the family line, don't dream of being with a man, otherwise he will not recognize Zhan Chong.
Zhan Chong picked his fingernails for a while, and didn't even bother to refute.
"Be upright!" Zhan Ping suddenly slapped the table hard, and said, "Look at how angry you are with your grandma, she couldn't sleep all night because of your things. How old is she, she still has to worry about you!"
It's okay not to mention this, Zhan Chong can still pretend that nothing is wrong, consider that grandma is his elder, and respect her.
As soon as she was mentioned, Zhan Chong thought of the little tricks she thought she did "correctly", which caused him and Liang Xiu to be separated for ten years.She always feels that she is right, and even now, she still puts herself in the role of suffering for the sake of her family.
Zhan Chong was a little annoyed, wanted to say something, but held back, but his expression became more and more ugly.
Seeing that the father and son were about to quarrel, the old lady came out again and pretended to be a good person, and said softly: "Stop arguing, what's there to quarrel, let the family have something to talk about. Son, don't you bother?" Let me just say a few words, Xiao Chong is still young after all."
"He's still young! He's almost 30!" Zhan Ping said with a sneer, but he didn't continue to use bad language to deepen the conflict.
The old lady turned her head to persuade Zhan Chong again, and said: "Xiao Chong, you also need to know that your father is doing it for your own good, and he will not harm you. The more he cares about you, the more he will be verbose. If a close relative If you refuse to say a word about your affairs and indulge you all the time, that will hurt you again, you have to know something!"
Although the old lady didn't name her name, everyone knew that she liked to swear at people in such a roundabout way.Everyone at the dinner table could tell that the final focus of this passage had shifted to Shen Man.
As soon as her words fell, Zhan Chong's face became even uglier, and he said in a deep voice, "Grandma, what are you talking about? My business is my business and has nothing to do with other people. You..."
Shen Man stretched out his hand to pull Zhan Chong's arm, still very calm, even smiled, and said, "Son, stop talking."
Zhan Chong immediately heard from her tone that when she said this, she didn't intend not to argue with anyone as before, but her tone was cool, with a kind of fighting spirit as if she was at the negotiating table.Zhan Chong looked at her in shock, but she didn't respond to Zhan Chong's inquiry.
Zhanping also realized at this time that something was wrong. He wanted to say a few good words to ease the atmosphere, but it was too late.
Shen Man looked at the mean-faced old lady opposite her, and said softly: "Mom, the relationship between me and my son, our way of getting along, and whether I care about him are not up to you to decide."
The tone of her speech was still calm and indifferent, but it exploded in the old lady's ears like a thunderbolt. Her face changed slightly, and she was about to accuse Shen Man angrily, but just as she opened her mouth, she was interrupted by Shen Man He said: "I know what you want to say, but I have heard enough over the years, and I have almost memorized your clichés. So please let me say this time, I won't say too much anyway, And just this time, I won’t say it again in the future.”
Shen Man suddenly smiled, as if very happy.
Zhanping was frightened by her words, hurriedly held her hand, and said softly: "Manman..."
Shen Man sighed slightly: "Don't interrupt me, let me say that I have not talked much in this family. It has been almost 30 years. Can you let me talk enough this time?"
Zhanping's face became a little ugly, and he looked at Shen Man helplessly.
Shen Man looked at the old lady and said: "Mom, you don't need to talk about your hard work. It's not easy for you. I know that your father-in-law left early. You raised an excellent son by yourself. You lost your youth and beauty because of this. I have lost many chances to get happiness. I understand your hard work. You can touch yourself and be proud of it in front of your son. But, to put it bluntly, what does this have to do with me? This is not Did you choose your own devotion? I am young, beautiful, and come from a superior family. My mother worked so hard to bring me up. It has nothing to do with you. You hate me for this. I really don’t understand. Before I married Zhanping, I didn’t owe you anything. As for me marrying Zhanping, I want to seriously build a happy family with him and take care of you with him. I ask myself what I have done with Zhanping these years In the marriage, I did not feel sorry for you and him. I have been trying my best to maintain this family because I love my husband. I am not trying to snatch your son away from you. I never had such an idea. But I know that you have always wanted to snatch my son away from me.
"You didn't succeed, though, and my son is very clear-headed. He doesn't say too much to you, as I do, because we all know you're old enough to follow you as best we can, and want you to be happy, but This is not a reason for you to interfere with our lives.
"Actually, I didn't intend to say these words, because no matter how hard it is, it's my own choice. I didn't complain to anyone. Back then, my parents didn't agree with this marriage, and I insisted on marrying Zhanping. You see, this is the difference in our personalities. I will not blame others for my choices, especially those my son likes.
"Although I haven't met that young man, I know he is a good person. Their relationship can go through ten years of separation without any change. Doesn't that explain the problem? How many decades can there be in life! And , In the past ten years, what kind of life my son has lived, you can’t see it. But he is the flesh that fell from me, and I can feel his pain. You don’t feel bad, I feel bad. I am a mother Yes, I have no choice but to protect him myself."
After Shen Man finished speaking, he looked directly at the old lady.
Both the old lady and Zhanping opened their mouths in surprise, and their faces turned blue and white for a while, especially the old lady, she was completely poked by Shen Man in the foot, tearing the darkness in her heart bloody, she could not bear such a situation , so her face was completely distorted, as ferocious and terrifying as an old monster, she wanted to refute, jumped up and slapped this woman, but she couldn't do anything, because this woman who had always been very indifferent suddenly became full of aura. It looks like a mother leopard protecting her cubs.At this moment, she was completely suppressed by this woman.
Zhan Chong was also dumbfounded by shock, and kept staring at Shen Man dumbfounded.
Shen Man patted his head, then took out a folder from his bag, put it on the table, and continued in the eerie silence: "I wanted to wait until everyone finished eating, but it seems that none of you I really want to eat, so I will say it now. Zhanping, this is the divorce agreement, I have already signed it, there should be no disputes about property, I will not take your things, I work hard, of course you No disdain. But if you have objections, please contact my lawyer."
"Manman! What nonsense are you talking about!" Zhanping had an expression of extreme horror on his face, and he was about to pull Shen Man's hand in a hurry.
Shen Man avoided him expressionlessly, and got up to get her coat.
"Mom, are you serious?" Zhan Chong was shocked, feeling that everything in front of him was unreal.He knew that although his parents were helpless, they still had feelings, so they couldn't make it to this point.Zhan Chong wanted to say something, but felt that he shouldn't speak, so he just looked at Shen Man stupidly.
"I've thought about this for a long time. Zhan Chong, don't feel burdened, it's not because of you. Your matter is just the last straw." Shen Man said in a low voice: "But I was indeed infected by you... After thinking about it, I feel that I have lived in vain for so many years. I don’t have the courage of the juniors. I have been useless all the time, which is not in line with my character. Then I thought, I also learn from you, pursue myself bravely, and renew my life at any time. It's not too late to start, right?"
Zhan Chong stopped talking. He and Shen Man understood each other. Shen Man really wanted to be freed from the shackles of marriage. Even if he didn't support it, it was impossible for him to oppose it.
Zhanping was terrified, and immediately wanted to chase her, but was caught by the frantic old lady, she screamed like she was going crazy, her voice was as piercing as fingernails on glass: "Let this vixen go! Smelly shameless! How dare you challenge me! You don’t even look at who you are! Get out if you want! Get your things and get out!”
Zhan Chong stood up abruptly and stood in front of Shen Man, saying: "Grandma, I don't allow you to insult my mother like this, please apologize to her!"
The old lady bared her teeth and yelled at Zhan Chong: "And you little white-eyed wolf, who brought you up! Ah! It's me! This vixen scolds me, and you turn to her. If she wants to kill me, are you It’s not about handing her the knife! Don’t forget that your surname is Zhan!”
Zhan Chong's face turned black, and he said sharply: "Grandma, please don't let me lose the last bit of respect for you."
Zhan Ping was completely flustered, completely ignoring the dispute between Zhan Chong and the old lady, rushed to Shen Man, took her hand and hurriedly begged for her forgiveness: "Manman, stop messing around!"
"I'm not fooling around. I just want to get a divorce. After the divorce, we will have nothing to do with each other. Just leave me and my son alone." Shen Man said ruthlessly
Zhan Chong was still confronting the old lady. Looking at the two men in front of her, she suddenly shuddered, feeling that she had been abandoned by the whole world, and then sat back on the chair slumped, her eyes were a little red.
How could her son and grandson get close to that woman?Why is this so, she has given everything for them.
Shen Man was still expressionless, she was neither sad nor happy, she didn't have any scruples about keeping the peace, she opened her mouth again, and threw a bomb.
"Mom—sorry, before the divorce agreement takes effect, I still have to call you 'Mom'." Shen Man paused, and then said, "The last thing to say. Really don't treat Zhan Chong like a child anymore I see, you have no idea how smart and tolerant he is. Do you really think he is still the same as before, allowing you to do whatever you want?"
Zhan Chong's face froze, and he looked back at Shen Man with a complicated expression, but after thinking about it, he didn't stop Shen Man from continuing.
