My parents had just moved in with us, and I could already feel the collision of ideas between the two generations. I was afraid that in this fierce collision, I would be smashed to pieces.
After my mother finished speaking, my father didn't express his opinion and kept his head down while silently cooking. His back was slightly curved, reminding me of the jujube tree planted in the backyard of my hometown. It was rough and curved, but still majestic.
Although his father didn't say anything, the word "Sichuan" on his brows had betrayed his heart.
I was filled with helplessness, smiled, and explained patiently: "Mom, it's different now than you used to. Young people now work from nine to nine, and those who live far away from the company have to get up at five o'clock to catch up. In the subway, no one is cooking at home.".z.
My mother lowered her eyes, "Then I'll make it for you every morning instead of buying it from outside every day."
"Just do what you and my dad do. Feifei has to go out at four o'clock in the morning. I live broadcast until early morning every night. I usually sleep the next morning and don't get up until eight or nine o'clock."
My mother nodded, then glanced at her phone and said to me hesitantly: "Do you want to ask Feifei if she wants to eat it? It won't taste good after it gets cold."
I waved my hand and said, "Don't worry about her, just let her sleep!"
The job of a flight attendant seems to be glamorous, but the black and white are reversed and erratic. The times are developing, life is progressing, and now live broadcasts and self-media platforms are blooming. This profession is no longer as popular as before.
In the past, flight attendants represented high income and good looks, but now life is getting better and better, and everyone has become accustomed to it.
My mother has never seen the hard work of being a flight attendant, so she can’t understand why she can sleep until noon.
I thought she had to sleep until noon, but she got up at nine o'clock. My parents lived at home, and Lin Feifei was embarrassed to get up too late.
After Lin Feifei finished washing, she sat at the dining table and ate breakfast and asked me, "Do you need me to accompany my uncle to the rehabilitation hospital today?"
I shook my head, "There is no appointment at the rehabilitation hospital today. I have an appointment tomorrow."
Lin Feifei said: "Then I won't be able to accompany my uncle tomorrow. I will fly to the fourth section of the university tomorrow."
"It's okay. I'll go with him tomorrow! You go about your business."
"Then I will take Sanqian to the pet hospital today. It was passed from cat to feline, so it will have to be hospitalized for a while. Then I will come back to disinfect the house and take the plush back from Zhou Shutong's house.
Before I took Sanqian home, Lin Feifei took precautions and sent the plush to Zhou Shutong's house for foster care.
When I mentioned Three Thousand, I couldn't help but smile bitterly, and I couldn't help but complain. "Buying a cat costs fifty, and seeing a doctor costs thousands."
I just said it casually, but my mother suddenly became shocked, like a thunderstorm in the sky, "What did you say? It costs thousands to treat a cat? It's too much money to spend, right?"
My heart skipped a beat and I grinned, a little regretful for mentioning this in front of her.
I laughed a few times and quickly changed my words: "That's all I said, but you took it seriously."
My mother said nothing more, but her face became serious, like a sky covered with dark clouds, and the atmosphere at home suddenly became solemn and tense.
In my mother's opinion, it is unnecessary to spend money on medical treatment for a cat. Although I am just an ordinary person, one decision I make can change the trajectory of a life.
Lin Feifei and I looked at each other, and I saw a hint of helplessness in her beautiful eyes.
Lin Feifei loves cats. My mother said so. She didn’t say anything, but she must have felt uncomfortable.
I originally thought that bringing my parents to live with us would bring us closer together, but I didn't expect that after just one day, the situation went beyond my imagination.
I have to report to the company today. Lin Feifei took Sanqian to the hospital and sent me to the company by the way.
On the way, I thought I should have a good chat with Lin Feifei.
When there is a conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, the key depends on what the man in the middle does. Although Lin Feifei and my mother are not at this point, in order to nip it in the bud, I decided to take the initiative.
I organized my words and looked at Lin Feifei who was driving. Just as I was about to speak, her red lips suddenly opened slightly.
"Do you have something to tell me?"
I was stunned for a moment and blurted out: "How do you know?"
Lin Feifei raised the corner of her mouth, stared forward, and said quietly: "You looked at me several times just now, with a constipated look on your face. You must have something to say to me. Tell me! What's the matter?"
I turned my head to look at her and said cautiously: "My mother's tone just now was a bit bad, but it was not directed at you, so don't take it personally."
Lin Feifei nodded slightly, "Well, I know, don't worry! I won't do it."
"Really?" I was doubtful.
She rolled her eyes and snorted sweetly, "How can I be as stingy as you think? If it were my mother, she would definitely think so too. It's normal for aunties to think so."
Lin Feifei paused for a moment and suddenly sighed, and the silky tenderness and helplessness instantly filled the air.
She frowned slightly, as if she wanted to suppress the inexplicable emotion.
"If it were my mother, I might have started scolding her a long time ago. I had no friends when I was a child, so I played with cats and dogs. They were my friends, especially raising cats by myself. I couldn't see the kittens suffering. It doesn't matter if my aunt doesn't understand me. You understand. That’s all I need.”
After saying that, she looked at me deeply.
I saw myself in her eyes and nodded, "Well, I support you mentally. So...can you reimburse me the money you spent on treating the cat in your hometown?"
"..."
I was slightly relieved that Lin Feifei didn't take it to heart, but remembering her gloomy mood last night, I hesitated for a moment and went straight to the topic: "I saw that you were in a bad mood last night because you went to Zhou Shutong. Dinner at home? Or are my parents too polite to you?"
Lin Feifei glanced at me in surprise, "You feel it too?"
Seeing me nodding, she sighed and said helplessly: "I feel that my uncle and aunt treat me like a guest, not like my own family at all, but they don't treat Zhou Shutong like that. It seems that they like me more." Zhou Shutong."
Lin Feifei's face gradually turned gloomy, as if all the light was blocked by dark clouds, and my heart also tugged.
Since ancient times, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has been a difficult problem. How to solve this problem is up to me.
I patted her shoulder. Now she needs more understanding. Everyone understands those so-called truths, but I don't need to say them.
I said to her seriously: "Who they like is their business, as long as I know who I like."
At this time, I must have a clear-cut stand, otherwise with her character, it will be easy for her to overthink things.
Lin Feifei was silent for a few seconds and then said hesitantly: "Actually... Zhou Shutong is indeed pretty good."
Her words caused me to panic, "Don't think blindly, I like you, and my parents didn't say they don't like you..."
Lin Feifei smiled, but there was a bit of sadness in her smile, "You don't need to explain anything, I understand. Uncles and aunts definitely like virtuous people. In fact, I also think Zhou Shutong is good. I admire her from the bottom of my heart, nothing else." mean."
The atmosphere in the carriage was a bit dull, so I tried my best to tease her for a long time before she finally smiled.
As the saying goes, a good girl is afraid of being stalked by a man. She finally couldn't stand me anymore. After she parked the car in front of our company, she rolled her eyes at me, giving me the feeling that a beauty is angry for no reason.
"Get off the car!"
I chuckled and said to her: "Well, we don't have any small umbrellas at home. Buy a box when you go to the supermarket. Buy the ones with Emei thorns."
Lin Feifei's cheeks were stained with a beautiful blush, her almond-shaped eyes were angry, "No time!"
"You have nothing else to say except that you have no time?"
Lin Feifei thought for a while, then nodded, "Don't tell me, it really is."
"What?"
"roll!"
"..."
Lin Feifei walked away, but seeing that she was in a better mood, I was relieved.
I haven't shown up at the company for a long time. Before going upstairs, I bought a few cups of milk tea and carried them up, one cup for each person.
It seems that no girl can resist the temptation of milk tea. As soon as the sisters saw the milk tea, they all felt like spring breeze and started chatting with me.
Except of course Xu Hui.
We had a bad relationship because of the live broadcast of helping farmers. When she saw me, her nose was not a nose, and her eyes were not eyes. I would have my attitude according to her expression. I just regarded her as air. She looked at me and ignored her, saying He took away her cup of milk tea without saying a word.
It is said that a glass of water and wine can avoid grievances. Xu Hui drank my milk tea, but she was not polite at all at the meeting. When it was her turn to report on her performance, she looked at me with a half-smile, and said in a deliberately long tone: " This month’s e-commerce performance lags behind by 3 points. This is actually related to the live broadcast project of helping farmers. We have invested too much manpower and energy, and this project is not profitable..."
She talked a lot and pointed the finger at me in a circumstantial way. Moreover, her words were somewhat inflammatory. She talked about the bonus and made everyone mentally prepared. The bonus may not be much this month.
As soon as interests were involved, the way everyone looked at me changed immediately. Their eyes were like sharp arrows piercing the sky, shooting at me from all directions.
Zhang Yinliu frowned and directly expressed her dissatisfaction with her, "How many days did the live broadcast project take up of your time? Only a week! Are you the only one in your department? If you do live broadcast to help farmers, no one else will do it in e-commerce. ?Isn’t there four people in your team? Isn’t there enough manpower?”
Xu Hui's face changed, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes, "Ah...Mr. Zhang, that's not what I meant. The performance is poor this month. I wanted to say that it has something to do with the live broadcast. The broadcast was suspended for a week this month, and then I worked as a support Agricultural live broadcast..."
Zhang Yin interrupted her coldly and said angrily: "You still have the nerve to mention live broadcasts? Live broadcasts account for almost 70% of the company's sales. You won't be able to walk without live broadcasts, right?"
Zhang Yin scolded her, and Xu Hui's face immediately turned red, all the way to her neck, and she was so embarrassed that she didn't even dare to raise her face.
The originally relaxed atmosphere instantly became dull, and depression was like a thick shadow, floating above the office and covering everyone's hearts...
