Single Mom in the Eighties - Chapter 100

The two fell asleep while chatting for an unknown amount of time. Yan Ruxu opened his eyes, and the sun shone in some dark yellow light through the thick curtains. Kang Congxin was no longer with him, Yan Ruxu took out his hand from the pillow and glanced at it. At 6:30, Kang Congxin should have returned from running by now. After moving here, it was close to the playground of the machinery group. Kang Congxin went to the playground every morning to run and do exercises, and brought breakfast along the way when he came back.

Suddenly, the phone rang from the living room, and someone picked it up quickly. After a while, Kang came in again.

Yan Ruxu yawned while getting dressed, and asked Kang Congxin, “Who is calling so early, is it Kangkang?”

Kang Congxin: “It’s not Kang Kang, it’s your uncle, Xu Huanqing.”

Yan Ruxu stopped in the middle of a yawn and asked, “He’s looking for me? What’s the matter?”

The last time Yan Ruxu contacted Xu Huanqing was when they were moving.

Ever since Yan Ruxu moved out of Xu Huanqing’s home, she hasn’t contacted him. It’s not that she has any resentment towards him, but his concern is a burden to her. Her feelings for Xu Huanqing are very complicated. On the one hand, she is a little grateful. After all, her biological mother abandoned her at that time, and only this uncle has been trying to help him, although she does not want to accept help; on the other hand, she is a little guilty, because On the other hand, he was annoyed that he always thought that he was kind enough to ease the relationship between her and his mother Xu Huanbai, and always tried to speak well of Xu Huanbai.

For this uncle, she has never thought about how to get along with her. It was not until Xu Huanqing was transferred to the People’s Daily that the two had more opportunities to get in touch. But Yan Ruxu also hesitated, but after hesitation, she decided to remain the same. Maintained a cold relationship.

Although the relationship between Yan Liangshen and Xu Huanbai broke down, they have always maintained a good relationship with Xu Huanqing. In the past, Yan Liangshen hoped that Xu Huanqing could be the link between him and his daughter, but now that the relationship between Yan Liangshen and Yan Ruxu has eased a lot, and he can also participate in her life to a certain extent, Xu Huanqing wants to ask Yan Liangshen instead. Yan Ruxu’s recent situation.

Yan Liangshen tentatively disclosed some information about Yan Ruxu to Xu Huanqing, seeing that Yan Ruxu did not take anger or blame himself for it, he became bolder, he thought, it would be a good thing to have an elder who genuinely cared about Yan Ruxu. He also told Xu Huanqing about Yan Ruxu’s move this time. Xu Huanqing called Yan Ruxu the same day and asked her if she needed help. Yan Ruxu thought about it, but still refused.

Yan Xu thought that Xu Huanqing must have been sad that time. His sister is like this, and so is his niece. They are all cold-hearted, cold-hearted, white-eyed wolves.

After a few months, Xu Huanqing turned on the phone again, and it was early in the morning. There must be something urgent to call her.

Yan Ruxu quickly put on her clothes, pulled on her slippers, and went to answer the phone.

“Uncle, I’m Yan Ruxu.” Yan Ruxu picked up the receiver and said.

“Yan Yan”, Xu Huanqing on the other end of the phone called Yan Ruxu’s name, then paused for a few seconds, and then said: “I just received a call from your mother, she wants to talk to you.”

Yan Ruxu was also silent for a while, and asked, “Is she looking for me for something?”

Xu Huanqing paused for a few seconds and replied, “It’s still about your going to America.”

It has been nearly two years since I received the letter from Xu Huanbai to Xu Huanqing from the United States, which contained a letter to myself, asking me to immigrate to the United States. Although Yan Ruxu did not reply to Xu Huanbai’s letter, he entrusted Xu Huanqing Conveyed her meaning. She thought that with Xu Huanbai’s personality, if she refused, she wouldn’t come to her again. Again and again, it’s not Xu Huanbai’s character.

Yan Ruxu said: “Uncle, I would not go before, let alone now. I am married, my husband is here, and my family is here. It is impossible to leave here to go to a foreign country.”

Xu Huanqing said: “Yanyan, I understand, but your mother called me and said that she must tell you in person.”

Yan Ruxu: “Why? She is not the type to force others like this. Why does she have to go to America?”

Yan Ruxu waited for a while, but did not wait for Xu Huanqing’s answer. Yan Ruxu continued: “I have no reason to call her. I am living a good life, very happy, and I don’t want to go anywhere.” Yan Ruxu continued to emphasize: “No matter what reason, I will not Those who are going to the United States, please convey my meaning.””

After a long while, when Yan Ruxu got impatient and was about to hang up the phone, Xu Huanqing’s voice came from the other end of the phone: “OK”.

After hanging up the phone, Yan Ruxu stood there for a while, and then walked towards the restaurant.

The bought tofu nao and fried dough sticks were placed on the table, and Kang Congxin was taking chopsticks and spoons from the cupboard.

“What did he want from you?”

Yan Ruxu opened the chair and sat down, and said, “My mother wants to talk to me on the phone and persuade me to go to America.”

Kang re-passed her the spoon and chopsticks, and sat down opposite. Hearing Yan Ruxu’s words, a trace of displeasure flashed across his eyes.

Yan Ruxu said: “I always feel that there is something going on here. In my memory, she is not the kind of stalker. She gave you a chance, but if you didn’t take it, she would not give you a second chance.” A second chance. In her opinion, being able to send me to the United States is a chance for me, but if I refuse, she will think that I don’t know what is good and bad, and she will give up on me. Why is it uncharacteristically, after two days Will you give me another chance this year? It can’t be because I’m her own daughter, right?”

Yan Ruxu smiled mockingly and said, “No, she never gave me special treatment since I was a child.”

Kang Congxin took a fried dough stick and handed it to her, saying, “No matter what she thinks, if you don’t want to go, she can’t help it. Don’t think so much, eat quickly, it’s getting cold.”

Originally, Kang Congxin had no likes or dislikes towards this mother-in-law who had never met. Yan Ruxu almost never mentioned this person, and Kang Congxin learned about her and Yan Ruxu’s past from Yan Liangshen.

What Yan Liangshen knew all came from Xu Huanqing. When Xu Huanqing told Yan Liangshen, he used the filter of his brother, and when Yan Liangshen told the story, he also used the filter of the beautiful love memories of the past. But Kang Congxin didn’t have a filter, he had his own judgment, and he could easily spot the illogical parts of their retelling because of the filter. Remove these filters, and you would be the real Xu Huanbai.

As his own daughter, Yan Ruxu didn’t have any resentment or longing for Xu Huanbai, let alone his son-in-law who had never met, but this mother-in-law came after they were married, had a happy family, and had been rejected. It would be too inappropriate to try to persuade Yan Ruxu to go abroad.

Since their marriage, neither the Bai Fengmei couple nor Yan Liangshen have ever dictated the life of their family of three, and they have all carefully kept their sense of proportion. Even if Bai Fengmei wanted the young couple to have a second child so much, she only mentioned a few words on the sidelines. But this mother-in-law, who had basically severed ties with Yan, suddenly wanted to separate the small family, which really annoyed Kang Congxin a little.

After Yan Ruxu arrived at work, he received a call from Yan Liangshen.

“Your uncle also called me, and wants me to persuade you to talk to your mother.” Yan Liangshen said.

Yan Ruxu listened, but didn’t speak.

Yan Liangshen continued: “She is your mother after all, and she wants you to go to America for your own good. If you don’t want to go, just tell her well, between mother and daughter…”

Yan Ruxu’s voice cooled down, and he said, “Is there anything else you need? I’ll hang up.”

After Yan Ruxu finished speaking, she hung up the phone directly.

After hanging up the phone, she found that her hands were trembling. She didn’t know why she was so emotional all of a sudden, anyone was qualified to use such words to persuade her, only Yan Liangshen couldn’t.

She was so stuffy and couldn’t sit still, she took the satchel from the hanger and knocked on Secretary Gao’s door next door: “Secretary Gao, I’ll go out for a while.”

Secretary Gao gleefully wiped the trophy of “People’s Favorite Magazine” that he just got, and agreed, “Go ahead”, and then glanced at Yan Ruxu again: “Hey, why are you looking so bad? Are you sick?”

Yan Ruxu smiled: “I guess I’m suffering from heat stroke, I’ll drink Huoxiang Zhengqi Water for a while and it will be fine.”

Secretary Gao put down the rag: “You have to take care of your health, our magazine will win a big prize, and we have to make persistent efforts in the future.”

Yan Ruxu agreed to withdraw and helped Secretary Gao close the door. Walk out of the yard, pass the China Construction Bank, and walk in the direction of the Machinery Group.

Walking downstairs, he nodded to the concierge. The concierge recognized her and didn’t stop her. He greeted her with a smile and said, “Can I call Vice President Kang first?”

Yan Ruxu shook his head and said, “No, I’ll go up and find him.”

Yuan Ming saw her from the half-open door, and hastily opened the door to meet her.

Yan Ruxu smiled at him and asked, “Is Vice President Kang busy?”

Yuan Ming led her in and said, “It shouldn’t be too busy.”

“Go ahead, I’ll go in by myself.” Yan Ruxu said, and was about to open the door, when the door of the room opened from the inside, and Yan Ruxu was pulled in.

“I heard your voice.” Kang closed the door again, said with a smile, and observed Yan Ruxu’s expression.

“The ears are really sharp.” Yan Ruxu said with a smile, and suddenly threw herself into Kang Congxin’s arms.

Kang Congxin immediately hugged him and stroked her back.

She ran over suddenly, her expression was not very good, something must have happened, he naturally thought of the phone call he received in the morning.

“What’s the matter, who made you unhappy?” Kang Congxin said, kissing the top of her hair lightly.

Yan Ruxu didn’t speak, just like a little beast, rubbing against his embrace.

Kang Congxin didn’t urge her, and let her rub against her.

Yan Ruxu rubbed against him for a while, feeling that Kang Congxin was sweating from the heat, he poked his head out and said, “I’m so angry! Anyone has the right to say that your mother is for your own good, only he didn’t! It’s not that I don’t know, what was my mother’s previous relationship, it’s too ridiculous, what position does he use to persuade me? Don’t get too close to him in the future!”

Yan Ruxu talked nonsense, Kang Congxin quickly coaxed her: “Okay, okay, let’s stay away from him from now on, we won’t go to his house, and we won’t let Kangkang go, okay?”

Seeing Kang Congxin, absorbing the warmth from him, venting it out again, Yan Ruxu has recovered a lot, and now hearing Kang Congxin’s indiscriminate words, just defending her, the last trace of unhappiness is gone.

She gently pushed Kang Congxin away, stroked the creased shirt for him, and said, “Grandpa Kangkang just called me and said that my mother wanted me to go to the United States for my own good. Talk to her nicely.”

Yan Ruxu sneered, and said: “He whitewashed Taiping himself in his memory, and I don’t care if he dressed her ex-wife as a fairy. Why should I whitewash it? I was already more than ten years old at that time, and it’s not bad. A sensible child? Do you really think being a mother is great?”

Kang Congxin embraced her, took her to sit on the sofa, and gave her comfort: “Why are you so angry?”

Yan Ruxu thought that with the “dream” experience of future generations, she had already downplayed the feelings and grievances between her parents and her parents in this life, but unexpectedly, Yan Liangshen’s phone call still made her feel very indifferent. She is so angry. from

Yan Ruxu leaned on him and said, “Perhaps deep down in my heart, I still care about it. After time has passed, he stands on the moral high ground with the attitude of a saint. He has something to do to my mother, so he feels that I Just like him, I have to agree with the beautified mother. He thinks that now that my relationship with him has eased, he has the right to dictate.”

Ever since they met, Yan Ruxu had never been so angry. He coaxed, loved, and nurturing her with all his heart, and he didn’t want her to suffer even a little bit of grievance, but now he is so angry! Kang Congxin felt distressed.

Yan Ruxu said: “I’m making a big deal out of a molehill, right? I don’t know why, but when I heard Grandpa Kangkang say that, I couldn’t control my anger.” Although she had analyzed the reason for her anger, thinking about it now, it seemed unnecessary , It seems that it is not worth getting so angry.

Kang Congxin said: “You are not wrong. Grandpa Kangkang is not qualified to be a lobbyist to educate you.”

Kang Congxin had always been helping relatives but not helping Yan Ruxu’s affairs. Moreover, from Yan Ruxu’s perspective, Yan Liangshen really had no right to criticize her. He is not there when the father needs to take care of him the most. When the children are grown up, he will add icing on the cake and do unnecessary care.

“Although I didn’t get the so-called maternal love from my mother, she made my life worry-free and allowed me to go to school. Later, my mother abandoned me and left by herself. Although she left, she left me money. I left the jewellery. With this money, I can live a good life, pay tuition fees, and live alone. I am still grateful to her. I just hope that she will abide by the agreement we made when we left, and we will be happy in the future. It doesn’t matter anymore, don’t bother each other. But, what about him?” Yan Ruxu snorted coldly.

“At that time, he and my mother broke up and quarreled all day long. He chose to leave, lived in the dormitory of the unit, and ignored me. Later, he was sent down and never heard from him. Look at him now She acted as if she favored me, but I was much worse than Yan Ruyu when I was young.”

Kang Congxin said: “You didn’t tell me, I didn’t know that you had such a bad life when you were a child.” Kang Congxin was very distressed, and he held Yan Ruxu in his arms and comforted her.

Yan Ruxu smiled and said, “If it wasn’t for his phone call, I would have thought I would have forgotten it a long time ago. Forget it, let’s not talk about it, it’s all over.”
