Chapter 10 — No Longer Waiting For Someone To Remember Me

I played back the recording. His face completely changed. 11 On the way home, Tran Hao didn't say a word. The streetlights alternately swept through the car window, making his face light and dark. I'm not in your car. He was about to call a taxi, so I directly scanned the code to rent a shared bicycle on the side of the road. He said: "It's so late, do you have to do that?" I put the bag in the cart. “I'm afraid to sit in your car and you'll think I'm making a fuss.” He stood still, his lips pressed into a line. When he returned home, Liu Que Phan was no longer sitting at the dining table. Three sets of bowls and chopsticks are still displayed there. The soup has cooled halfway, with a thin layer of fat forming on top. The color of the sweet and sour ribs is very beautiful, but no one touches it. Liu Que Phan sat on the sofa, with an open cloth bag in front of him. Inside were a few clothes, a bag of toiletries and an old wallet. Seeing us walk in, she immediately stuffed her hair back. “Are you two satisfied?” Tran Hao stepped forward. “Mom, are you still looking for her leader this afternoon?” Luu Que Phan's face stiffened. “Who said?” “Mom, don't care who says it.” Tran Hao's voice was lower than usual but extremely heavy. “What do you want to do anyway?” Liu Que Phan seemed to be hurt by his son's question, tears immediately flowed from his eyes. “Are you also asking me now?” “I am your mother!” “Mom worked hard to raise you, and now just because of one sentence from her, you come home and question me?” Tran Hao closed his eyes. “I'm asking for the truth.” She pointed at me. “The truth is that she wants to destroy this family!” "She has a salary but doesn't bring it home. She eats and drinks well outside, and wants to check her mother's books." I walked to the dining table and picked up the empty bowl. The bowl is very clean. So clean that it seems like all the debts of the past few days can be erased with a meal. I put the bowl back. “What I checked was the joint account.” Liu Guifen's voice became harsh. “Isn't that money all Hao Hao's?” The living room suddenly fell silent. Tran Hao looked at her. I also looked at her. “Mom finally told the truth.” Liu Que Phan realized he had said something wrong and immediately corrected himself: "I mean, the money belongs to you and your husband, why do you need to divide it so clearly?" I said: "Because from the bottom of my heart, I never considered your money as your money." She grabbed the cloth bag and stood up. “I won't talk to you anymore.” “Tomorrow I will return home.” “In the future, you two can live however you want.” Tran Hao held her shoulder. “Mom, you sit down first.” She pushed his hand away. “Don't worry about me.” "After all, in this house, I'm an outsider. Even if I eat a meal, someone else will judge me." I asked: "So this afternoon, when you came to my company, who did you want to calculate me?" She was about to cry again. I don't let her continue. “Tomorrow I will explain the situation to the receptionist and leader.” “If you continue to come to the company to look for me or ask about my personal life, I will officially complain about harassment.” Tran Hao immediately looked over. “Is it necessary to say such absolute love?” "Have." I said: “Work is my final limit.” "You can argue whatever you want at home, don't reach out to my workplace." He was silent. But Liu Guifen seemed to have caught something. “You see, you see.” “Her job is more important than her family, yes
I blame myself for not wanting to have children.” I was stunned. Tran Hao was also stunned. We have talked about this topic before. Before getting married, I said I would not consider having children for three years. At that time, Tran Hao agreed very firmly. Because the home loan has just started, both are busy, I don't want life to become more chaotic. After Liu Guifen moved in, she mentioned it a few times. Every time I didn't respond, she sarcastically said that it was not good for older women to have children. I didn't expect her to bring it up at this time. I looked at Tran Hao. “Do you think so too?” Tran Hao frowned. “Why talk about this now?” Liu Que Phan cried and said: "Why can't you say?" "She doesn't have children, doesn't eat at home, and doesn't let her children manage the money." “Hao Hao, you still haven't seen it yet?” “Her heart is not in this family at all.” I suddenly felt the choking feeling in my chest no longer roll up. It sank. Sinking into a cold rock. I said: "Liu Que Phan, I will remember what you said today." She was stunned. I picked up the phone and turned on the recording. “Just now, mom said that if you don't have children, your heart is not in this family.” “Then let me make it clear.” “I wasn't born because the two of us weren't ready.” “It's not because I owe you two.” Tran Hao raised his hand to hold my phone. This time he couldn't touch it. I took a step back. “You also listen carefully.” “If I have to deal with marriage issues in the future, I will not accept any moral criticism regarding having children.” Tran Hao's face was completely unsightly. “Manh Tinh, you even recorded this?” I said: "Since your mother came to my company, I will no longer rely only on my mouth to remember."
