Sitting at the table, eating, Zhou Ping was obviously preoccupied, and his eyes didn't even notice the bowl. He was just unfocused, looking a little absent-minded.
"Ping'er." At this moment, Zhou's mother's voice suddenly sounded, pulling Zhou Ping out of his trance.
"Ah, mother, what's wrong?" Zhou Ping was startled, because he clearly felt that his mother was not in the room at all when she just said that, but was calling him in his ear.
He raised his head, turned to look around him, and then looked at the door of the room, but there was no one there.
"What's wrong with you today? You look like you have something on your mind."
Zhou's mother's voice sounded again, and Zhou Ping breathed a sigh of relief, because at this time, his mother's voice really came from the room, and was not beside him, which made him relieved.
Since his mother fell ill two months ago, she has almost lost her ability to move. He has been taking care of her all the time in the room. It is impossible for her to leave the room alone. She can't help but rub her brows, guessing that she may be a little distracted due to lack of concentration.
Xu Luan misheard and said.
"No, mother."
Zhou Ping denied that his mother was not in good health and he did not want his mother to know about his affairs and worry.
"You all came from my mother. Don't you still know what kind of character you have? You are not like you are today." Mother Zhou's voice sounded from the room again, old and weak.
It gives people a feeling of dying: "Tell me, what's the matter? Talk to my mother. Although my mother is old, she can still help you now."
Zhou Ping hesitated for a moment after hearing this. Naturally, he would not believe what Zhou's mother said about helping him. He knew his mother's situation best, and it was difficult to move, let alone help him. What he was really worried about was his mother.
Because he was worried about his own affairs, his mother asked again, thought about it, and said.
"Mom, actually nothing happened. It's just that Xiaojie is back."
"Xiaojie, oh, you're talking about the girl from Guosheng and Xiulian's family. I asked you why you were absent-minded today. It turns out that's what happened." Mother Zhou in the room suddenly realized that she naturally had no idea what her son was thinking.
He knew it, so he immediately smiled and said: "That girl is indeed quite good, she is beautiful and has a well-behaved personality, so she is worthy of you."
"Mom, what are you talking about? I'm not worthy of her."
Zhou Ping's face changed when he heard this, and he retorted, feeling a sense of inferiority in his heart. His family was poor, and sometimes it was difficult for him to have three meals a day. Although he had always appeared strong on the surface over the years, deep down in his heart, he
She has low self-esteem, especially when facing Xu Jie, this low self-esteem is most vivid.
He has liked Xu Jie since he understood the relationship between men and women, but he has never dared to speak out his thoughts. On the contrary, he has always tried his best to hide his thoughts, and he is even more afraid that Xu Jie will know.
, because he was afraid that if his thoughts were known to Xu Jie, he would not even be able to have normal polite interactions.
"Nonsense!" Unexpectedly, after hearing Zhou Ping's words, Zhou's mother in the room was furious and shouted: "Who said that? Who said you are not worthy of her? Who said this? I'll go
Tear his mouth apart, my son is the best, even if he is not worthy, it is because others are not worthy of my son."
"Is it the girl from the Guosheng family who said that you are not worthy of her? Tell me if it is her."
Mother Zhou's voice became more and more excited as she spoke, and by the end, it even had a deep chill, like a poisonous snake.
"Mom, no, no, don't get excited, don't get excited..."
Zhou Ping heard the excitement in his mother's tone and said quickly.
"Then tell me who said it, who said you are not worthy of her, tell mother."
Mother Zhou continued, her anger still lingering in her tone. In her opinion, her son was the best and best in the world and could not tolerate slander.
"Mom, don't be angry, it's me, it's me, it's me who thinks I'm not good enough for Xiaojie."
Zhou Ping said quickly.
"Yourself." Mother Zhou's tone paused, and then she immediately softened: "Silly, why do you think so? How can you not be worthy of her? Although our family is poorer, but in terms of other things, how can my son not be worthy of her?
Worse, if you say she is not worthy, it should be because she is not worthy of you."
"mother--"
Zhou Ping shouted again, feeling that every time his mother said this, he felt even more uncomfortable.
"Okay! Okay! Okay! Mom won't say anything anymore. Mom won't say anything anymore. Mom will directly help you propose marriage."
Mother Zhou in the room said again.
"What!"
Zhou Ping's expression changed drastically.
"Don't you like that girl? You're old enough now. It's time to start a family. It just so happens that when the girl comes back, she decides to get married. It's fine, but it's my mother's last wish."
Mother Zhou continued.
"no!"
Zhou Ping's expression changed drastically and he quickly retorted.
"Why? Don't you like that girl anymore?" Zhou's mother asked.
"It's not like that, it's because, it's because..." Zhou Ping's face changed drastically, and the figure of Lin Tianqi appeared in his mind involuntarily. Thinking of Lin Tianqi's appearance, the inferiority complex in his heart became stronger, and his whole face became a little distorted.
.
"Because of what?"
Mother Zhou's voice sounded from the room again, asking.
Zhou Ping gritted his teeth and after a fierce struggle, he said.
"It's because Xiaojie is already engaged. Today Xiaojie came back with her husband to propose marriage. The Xu family has already agreed. Now the whole village knows about it."
Zhou Ping gritted his teeth and said, feeling a huge discomfort in his heart. The woman he liked was engaged, but that person was not him.
"What!?"
In the room, Zhou's mother's voice suddenly became angry again.
"Damn it, I knew this coquettish bitch, who looks like a vixen, is indeed a shameless vixen. She is a girl, and she doesn't want to stay at home. She just wants to run outside. It turns out that she went to seduce a man.
It’s a shame that my son is sincere to her, bitch! Bitch! This slutty bitch, the bitch who was fucked to pieces..."
Mother Zhou suddenly cursed angrily and her words were vulgar.
"Mom, please stop talking." Zhou Ping spoke to stop Zhou's mother. His face was painful, but he still said: "Xiaojie has not sorry for me. It is her own choice and her freedom to be with others. We have no right to interfere.
, don’t say it again..."
"Who said that you love her so much, but she is looking for another man? If not a bitch, he looks like a vixen..."
Mother Zhou said angrily.
"Mother." Zhou Ping shouted, covering his chest, feeling severe pain, and said: "Don't talk about it anymore, forget it."
Mother Zhou in the room seemed to be moved by Zhou Ping's words, and fell silent for a moment, but after a moment of silence, Mother Zhou's voice came back to her mind.
"Do you really like her?"
Do you like it?!
Zhou Ping's heart trembled!
He naturally likes it, day and night, all the time, there is nothing he dislikes.
