Weng Lu nodded, didn't think much, turned around and continued cooking, "Can we have something for lunch?"
"Mom..." Tang Muzhi frowned, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke, "I'll move out in the afternoon."
"Move out?" Weng Lu was startled and turned to look at her, seemingly a little confused, but she quickly came to her senses and explained, "Your Uncle Lu was drunk last night and all he said was nonsense."
She pursed her lips and remained silent. She didn't know whether she was talking nonsense or not. Anyway, everyone said that you tell the truth after drinking.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Weng Lu also knew that she must be feeling uncomfortable. She walked up to her, held her cold hands, and quickly said, "Uncle Lu, your work has not been going well recently, and you are upset. You know that." , I have never had a job, and Ah Hao is studying again. This family relies entirely on his salary. He is just under a lot of pressure, so don’t take it to heart."
"Mom, I'm not a child anymore." Tang Muzhi raised his eyes and looked at her, slightly twitching the corners of his mouth, "Don't worry about me, I can take care of myself."
The implication of her words is that she is no longer the several-year-old child that no one wanted when they divorced. Now, she no longer expects to follow anyone, and she can live on her own.
"Zhizhi, it was Mom who was sorry for you." Weng Lu lowered her head, her voice filled with deep apology and remorse, and choked with sobs, "Mom had no choice at that time. My income from work was meager at that time. If I took you with me, I would I was afraid of starving you to death, and I didn’t expect that your father, who suffered a thousand cuts, never came back after leaving. It’s my fault.”
Tang Muzhi shook his head and patted her shoulder to comfort her, "It's not your fault. You have the right to pursue your own happiness. Besides, I lived with my grandma before, which was pretty good."
"Mom, I'm sorry for you." Weng Lu raised her eyes and stared at her seriously, her eyes full of tears, "I thought that if you came to Haicheng to study in college, I could always make up for you. It's my fault, it's me It’s useless, it’s not fulfilling a mother’s responsibility.”
"Mom, please stop crying." Tang Muzhi stretched out his hand and wiped her tears, "Aren't I fine now? You also have a new family now. We are all fine, aren't we?"
"Then don't move out, okay?" Weng Lu held her hand tightly, her tone apologetic and expectant.
Tang Muzhi opened her mouth, but found that her throat was dry. After a long while, she squeezed out a few words, "Mom, how can anyone get married and immediately separate, why not live with their husbands?"
"What?" Hearing this, Weng Lu looked at her with wide eyes and said in shock, "Zhizhi, what are you talking about?"
"Mom, I'm married." As she said that, she took out the red marriage certificate from her bag.
Weng Lu stared at the marriage certificate with her mouth open, and looked at the photos on it carefully for a long time. She was still in disbelief, "You...when did you have a boyfriend? You couldn't do it because of your Uncle Lu last night." Did you just make a fake marriage certificate to deceive me after talking nonsense while drunk?"
"Mom, it's true." Tang Muzhi spoke calmly, with a faint smile on his lips, "He has a legitimate profession and does some small business. We... talked for a while, and he recently proposed to me. , and I agreed, so we rushed to get the certificate before the New Year’s Day holiday.”
"This..." Weng Lu was completely confused. She stared blankly at her face for a long time, then found her voice and murmured, "He is so much older than you, could he be here to cheat on you?"
"Mom, age doesn't matter. Uncle Lu is six years older than you." Tang Muzhi patiently explained to her, "And you also said that older men will love others. He is quite good. He has It also has a car and a house, which is good for me.”
After all, he gave her two hundred yuan as taxi fare when he left, so what she said was not a lie.
Weng Lu still looked in disbelief, holding her hand tightly and saying worriedly: "Zhizhi, you married yourself before you graduated. What if you were deceived?"
"Mom." Tang Muzhi sighed, patted the back of her hand, and comforted her softly, "Don't worry, I won't be deceived. He's been a little busy these days. After a while, I'll He brings it back to you to see."
"But..." After hearing this, Weng Lu hesitated a little, paused, and said again, "Then do you understand the situation in his family?"
Although she hoped that her daughter would find a good home, she never thought about letting her get married now, not to mention that the other party was eight years older than her. How could she feel relieved?
"Mom, he is a very filial person. He lives with his grandparents now." Tang Muzhi didn't know much about Jing Xiao's family situation. After all, she didn't ask about it today. These were all she could probably know from their conversation. .
"Zhizhi..." Weng Lu hesitated, and after a long time, she finally gave in, "But you don't need to move out right away. It's New Year's Day now, and the Spring Festival will be celebrated soon. Otherwise, you Let’s wait until after the Spring Festival.”
"Mom, his house is very close to my school. When the New Year's Day holiday is over, I will be busy with exams. It will be convenient to move to and from school." Tang Muzhi patiently explained to her, and then added after a few seconds. , "Besides, we have just been married. It would be bad if we separated now."
"Then... that's okay." The deal was done, and Weng Lu had no choice but to agree, "Zhizhi, if you find it inconvenient, just move back. If anything happens, just tell mom. It’s all bottled up in my heart.”
"Yes." She nodded obediently, feeling slightly relieved.
Weng Lu stretched out her hand to wipe her tears, and suddenly thought of something again, and said, "By the way, Mom doesn't have much money now, so your dowry..."
"I don't need a dowry." She refused without hesitation, and then added, "I made an agreement with him that he doesn't need to give a dowry, and I don't need to pay a dowry. Anyway, we have to live a down-to-earth life. These...are not necessary."
Hearing this, Weng Lu hesitated for a moment, but still nodded, "That's fine, but I'm just afraid...that they will look down on you and you will suffer."
"Mom, no." She smiled and patted her arm comfortingly, "Okay, it's time for me to pack my things."
"On New Year's Day in a few days, you can take him home for dinner." Weng Lu suggested.
"Mom, he will go out of town to discuss business on New Year's Day. As you know, everyone is busy at this time. I will bring him back after this period of time is over." She found an excuse at random, and then He hurried into the house.
Looking at the closed door, Weng Lu murmured in her mouth: "I have to go to another place just after receiving the certificate. I really don't care about my family."
After Tang Muzhi returned to the room, she simply packed up her things.
After having lunch with my mother, I moved out directly.
After taking a taxi to Yajiang Beiyuan near Haicheng University, she stood at the door dumbfounded.
Looking at the WeChat chat interface, she didn't know what to do for a while. She cursed in her heart, when will WeChat not clear the chat history when deleting recent chat objects?
Tang Muzhi has a good and bad habit, that is, after chatting with people on WeChat, he will delete the records. First, it is to make it easier for him to distinguish between things that have been done and things to be done, and second, to prevent his phone from being taken by mistake. Conversations that were seen and shouldn’t be seen.
After all, she had experienced this second situation personally, and for this reason, she also lost the opportunity to cooperate with a large company.
Right now, she was looking at the clean chat box with Jing Xiao, and she couldn't remember which house he sent her to. I can't even remember, what's the code for the door?
Tang Muzhi sighed depressedly and rehearsed it many times in his mind before finally sending the message again and asking about his house again.
[Mr. Jing, may I ask, which building and household is the house in? What's the password? 】
When the phone vibrated, Jing Xiao was having a meeting in the conference room. His face was gloomy, and his whole body was exuding a strong air-conditioning, like an iceberg.
All the executives were silent, and even their breathing became extremely cautious, lest they accidentally angered him.
In the huge conference room, you can hear the drop of a needle.
Suddenly, Jing Xiao's cold and sharp eyes fell on the screen of his mobile phone. When he clicked on WeChat to read, his eyebrows jumped involuntarily.
He glanced at a message at the top of the phone screen. It was sent to Tang Mu Zhi in the morning. It clearly stated the location of the house and the password.
But now, she sent another message to ask. According to him, this person was young and his eyesight and memory were not very good. But then he thought that she might have sent the wrong message, so he ignored it.
The meeting continued, and the atmosphere remained dull.
Tang Muzhi just stood in the cold wind, staring at the screen of his mobile phone, but as time passed by, he never received a reply.
She thought Jing Xiao was busy and didn't pay attention to the message notification sound, so she tried to make a voice call again.
When the phone rang on the table, Jing Xiao frowned, and when he saw it was her, he hung up immediately.
He frowned and put his phone back on the table, but picked it up again after a few seconds and sent a message back in order to avoid being disturbed by her again.
【I am in a meeting. 】
Soon, Tang Muzhi replied, [Oh, when you are done, can you tell me which building the house is in and what the password is? 】
Seeing her ask again, Jing Xiao felt that she didn't seem to have sent the wrong message.
[Didn’t I already send it to you this morning? 】
[Did you interrupt my work on purpose? Or is it intentional? 】
Even through the screen of his mobile phone, Tang Muzhi could hear the questioning meaning emanating from these two sentences, and felt a little speechless. It was clearly his own words when they separated in the morning, and if you have anything to do, please send him a message. News, what does that count now? It's only been a few hours, why don't you admit it?
But she could understand after thinking about it. After all, no one likes to be disturbed while working, even herself.
