Chapter 176 Take All the Problems on Your Own
"Xiao Liang, isn't this too unfair to you?"
"No, no, I can endure anything for the sake of rice cakes."
"Oh..." Nian Zheng sighed heavily. In just a short while, he had finished smoking the half pack of cigarettes on the table. When he reached out to touch it again, there was only an empty box left.
Liang Fei was very considerate and handed over his cigarette, and then diligently helped to light it.
“Hiss… huh…”
Nian Zheng slowly exhaled the smoke and asked Liang Fei worriedly: "Xiao Liang, your aunt and I are in a state of confusion right now, and we have no plan at all. Do you have any specific plan to keep Nian Gao?"
"You can't just keep crying and crying by relying on your uncle and aunt, right?"
Lin Jingxin suddenly said: "I can do it."
“…”
The mother-in-law has well-developed tear glands. Liang Fei coughed and said, "Since Nian Gao wants to break up with me, let's do it for now. She doesn't want to see me, so I'll just disappear for the time being. In order to help Nian Gao get over it better, I think uncle and aunt can help her make a decision."
"What decision?"
"Give up the guaranteed admission to graduate school and apply for a graduate program at another school." After a pause, Liang Fei lowered her head to think for a while, then shook her head and said, "No, Nian Gao has a lot of feelings for Mingda University. After all, she was the president of the student union. How about this, I drop out!"
Drop out, drop out of school? ?
Nian Zheng was stunned, including Lin Jingxin. The two of them tried to comfort him, "Xiao Liang, Xiao Liang, you don't have to do this. It's not easy for any child to get into Ming University. You're already a junior. If you drop out now, wouldn't it be a waste of the previous three years?"
"Your parents won't agree."
Liang Fei had made up her mind and said decisively: "It doesn't matter. I will do the ideological work on my parents' side myself."
"No, absolutely not." Nian Zheng waved his hands while holding a cigarette, trying to persuade Liang Fei, "We can't let other children give up their future just because of our own children. Absolutely not, Xiao Liang, don't have this idea again. Uncle and aunt will never agree to it."
Oh, never mind.
Lin Jingxin thought for a while and said, "If Nian Gao doesn't want to see Xiao Liang for the time being, he can take the postgraduate entrance examination, go to work, or even stay at home and do nothing. Anyway, we can afford it."
"I'm just worried that Nian Gao won't agree." Nian Zheng said worriedly, "This child has always had her own ideas since she was young. We can't have a say in her decisions."
Liang Fei nodded and said thoughtfully: "This should be a habit that Nian Gao has cultivated since he was a child. It is due to the environment. It is usually an advantage, but now it has become a hindrance."
Nian Zheng and Lin Jingxin looked at each other, feeling a little guilty.
Why does Nian Gao like to make decisions on his own? It’s because his parents are unreliable.
"Xiao Liang."
Nian Zheng looked at Liang Fei and said sincerely, "Uncle and aunt will definitely work hard here, and I beg you to do more ideological work on Nian Gao. I know this is a bit difficult, but... you are the only boy Nian Gao has ever liked since he was a child. There is only you, please!"
"Don't worry, uncle." Liang Fei nodded solemnly, "No matter whether Nian Gao can accept me again, I will try to pursue her again."
Lin Jingxin held Liang Fei's hand and said with emotion: "Xiao Liang, I'm sorry for wronging you."
"I don't feel wronged, really. I don't feel wronged at all. I deserve it."
"Don't say that. In fact, uncle and aunt are more wrong."
Liang Fei lit another cigarette for Nian Zheng, and after thinking for a moment, she said, "Uncle and aunt, Nian Gao will definitely not tell you these things , and you don't have to force her to question her. If possible, I hope that uncle and aunt will come forward together and accompany her for a night."
This was a risky move, betting that Nian Gao would not reveal the truth to Nian Zheng and Lin Jingxin for the sake of his self-esteem, but once it was revealed...
It's exposed, so be it. A good girl is afraid of being pestered by a man. Life is so long, and you are so shameless that you stick to rice cakes like a dog-skin plaster. Why do you chase girls if you have any shame?
Those who care about face have become extinct because they cannot have offspring.
…
Nian Gao, who had cut his long hair, returned to his nest alone. As soon as he entered the house, Nian Zheng and Lin Jingxin, who had been waiting on the sofa in the living room, stood up together. The three closest relatives looked at each other in silence.
"Nannan, mom and dad know everything."
Nian Zheng looked at his daughter, his voice hoarse, and opened his arms: "Can you let mom and dad hug you?"
Lin Jingxin stood there stiffly, with her arms hanging down and her fists clenched, but she didn't dare to speak.
Nian Gao stood there for a moment. A great sense of grievance and sorrow surged in her heart. Her nose was sore that she could no longer pretend to be strong. She covered her eyes with the back of her hands and cried uncontrollably.
Nian Zheng and Lin Jingxin walked forward and held Nian Gao in their arms.
There is no need to worry about avoiding suspicion now. My daughter is the most important.
Nian Gao took off all his disguises and rested his head on Lin Jingxin's shoulder, crying sadly: "Mom, mom, Liang Fei... Liang Fei..."
Lin Jingxin hugged her child tightly and tried to comfort him: "Mom knows, Mom knows everything, it's not your fault, you are not wrong, let's separate, as long as you are happy, mom and dad only want you to be happy."
There was a bed, Nian Huaishi was sleeping in the middle with traces of tears still on her face. Nian Zheng and Lin Jingxin were on either side, patting her gently with their hands, just like many years ago when they were still in love and coaxed the fruit of their love to sleep.
Gently wiping the tears off Nian Gao's face, Lin Jingxin whispered, "Go back. I'll accompany Nian Gao tonight. Don't let the one at home get jealous."
Nian Zheng shook his head and whispered, "I told her, Zheng Yu understands."
After a moment of silence, Lin Jingxin slowly let out a breath and said with a smile: "Zheng Yu is very generous. She is indeed very suitable for you. She can indeed give you the emotional sustenance that I cannot give you."
Nian Zheng smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Everyone is the same. The one in your family has done a good job. Lin Jingxin, in fact, even when we were fighting the most, I never hated you."
"Me too."
"For the sake of rice cakes, let's try to live in peace from now on."
"Well, at least we have to make Nian Gao feel hopeful about life again."
The next day, early morning
Nian Gao slowly got up from the bed with red and swollen eyes. The bedroom door opened a crack and the aroma of breakfast wafted in.
I got out of bed and walked to the living room. Lin Jingxin came out of the kitchen wearing an apron, holding a bowl of egg noodles. She waved at Nian Gao with a smile: "Get up, come and eat."
At this time, Nian Zheng pushed the door open and complained, "Why is the business of that steamed bun shop so good? I waited in line for more than half an hour and only got five or six steamed buns."
"Hey, my daughter is awake. Eat the freshly-made fried dumplings while they're hot."
The family sat down. Nian Gao took the chopsticks, picked up the noodles and took a bite. It was the taste of childhood. He had forgotten how long he hadn't eaten it.
He lowered his head and sniffed, and said weakly, "Mom and Dad, I..."
"Eat first."
Nian Zheng picked up a steamed bun for Nian Gao and said gently, "We have talked to Xiao Liang. You young people should make your own decisions. Your parents will always be your solid support."
"But mom and dad only ask one thing of you." Nian Zheng looked at Nian Gao, "Please don't leave us, okay?"
Nian Gao looked at Nian Zheng, then at Lin Jingxin: "Then what should I do?"
"Change the environment and start over."
Lin Jingxin held Nian Gao's hand: "We will definitely be able to overcome this difficulty and forget those bad memories."
"Nian Gao, you have done a great job. You are the best."
Nian Huaishi felt like she had returned to the happiest years of her life, when her parents had a harmonious relationship and her family was well off. She lived like a real little princess. How could she be so sentimental and fragile at that time?
At that time, she was invincible and no one could bully her.
I'm going to bully him back!
Nian Gao suddenly made up his mind, ate noodles in big mouthfuls, and said to his parents in a firm tone: "I don't want to run away. I won't run away again."
The previous rice cake is dead, and the one standing in front of you now is the Niuhulu rice cake.
You damn scumbag, just wait for me!
