My mother snatched my phone away, and it was already connected. My mother said "Plateau" over and over again as she walked out.

    I mean, you''re asking Old Gao that Guzheng and I are still innocent. Where''s your son? You''re asking outsiders?

    After a while, my mother came over again, handed me her phone and said, "The plateau wants to talk to you."

    I took the call and cursed, "Damn, where are you? Playing missing? This is?"

    I haven''t seen Old Gao in days. After selling the pond, I don''t know what he''s going to do.

    "No." Old Gao laughed and said, "It''s not outside. What about you? How are you doing?"

    I don''t know why, but I always feel that Old Gao''s tone is a little strange, as if... How to say it, I feel like I''m not as ruffian as I used to be. But I didn''t care, and said, "Whatever you can do, that''s it. By the way, have you heard about Hu Zi? I didn''t call you the other day."

    "What happened to Hu Zi?" Old Gao asked.

    It seems that he doesn''t know about Hu Zi yet. I said, "Hu Zi and li xiaowei."

    "Split? How can they be separated?" As expected, Old Gao was also surprised.

    "Li Xiaowei is with a rich second generation." When I mentioned this, I felt unhappy and said, "You can call Hu Zi later. When are you coming back? I''ve been feeling depressed lately, and I''m looking for someone to drink with!"

    "Ah... I''m not sure." Old Gao thought about it and said with some hesitation.

    I frowned and asked, "What are you doing outside?"

    It felt like Old Gao was secretive and he didn''t know what he was doing. He still didn''t understand why he sold the pond.

    "Nothing. I''ll be back in a few days." Old Gao still didn''t answer my question directly.

    I "Oh" and said, "Okay, call me when you come. My mom is calling to ask you to come to my house for dinner."

    "I''ll definitely go then." Old Gao promised.

    I smiled, "Okay, I won''t talk to you anymore. We''ll talk when we meet."

    "Xing Yun."

    At this moment, Old Gao suddenly called out my name again.

    "What''s wrong?"

    "Can you really pay off your debt?"

    "Yes. Give some back to my dad and mom."

    "So, have you ever thought about getting back together with Ding Ge?" Old Gao asked.

    Another one!

    I couldn''t help but pinch my temples and say, "Why did you mention it in the past?"

    Bring up the sadness once, the pain once!

    Old Gao said, "Xing Yun, listen to me. Get back together with Ding Ge, or you''ll regret it for the rest of your life."

    I was stunned. I didn''t expect Old Gao to say such a thing all of a sudden. He didn''t seem to tell me that in the past. At that time, he hoped that I would find a girlfriend sooner. Why has it suddenly changed?

    Hanging up the phone, I was lost for a long time.

    It was as if the restlessness in the depths of the earth was about to break out again!

    I took a deep breath and didn''t think much about it.

    ...

    At dinner time, the gossip on my mother''s body was burning again. I asked a lot of questions about Guzheng, but I didn''t dare to say much. I was afraid that my mother would have a lot of connections in her mind.

    I said to my mother, "Mom, stop hitting people. I''m telling you, we really don''t care. Just friends."

    "What do you know, you silly boy?" But my mother said to me, "Do you think your mother can''t see anything? That girl must be interested in you."

    My mother said with absolute certainty!

    Although she was right, I could only say, "You''re making a big deal out of it. What''s the matter with me?"

    My mother glared at me and said, "Xing Yun, let me tell you, this time you can give me a good fight. If you don''t work hard at Guzheng, a good girl will slip out of your hands again."

    My mother''s word "Again" brought up some waves in my heart.

    I couldn''t help but smile and said helplessly, "Mom, what do I have to say to make you believe me? Why don''t you ask my aunt and see if we can make it?"

    "I saw your mother with my own eyes. Why did I ask your aunt?" My mother glared at me excitedly, "You child!"

    "What did you see?"

    My mother didn''t explain immediately, but looked at me with her eyes as if she was thinking about something. After a while, she seemed to have figured something out and asked, "I see. You child, do you despise others?"

    I was stunned. I didn''t expect my mother to say that.

    My mother began a long speech again, "Xing Yun, I''m not the one who''s insulting you as a mother. Other girls are more than enough for you. I don''t think you''re ashamed of your status. Is there something wrong with your eyesight? If there is something wrong, you should take the time to cure it."

    As I was drinking, my mother''s sense of humor spurted out of me.

    My dad couldn''t help but smile as he looked at my mother speechlessly and said, "What are you... Eating? What''s the joke?"

    My mother glared at my father and motioned him not to speak.

    My father had no place in my family for decades, so he went on eating and ignored us both.

    My mother continued to swear to me, "It''s hard to find such a good girl with a lantern. Tell me honestly what you think in your heart."

    I sighed. If my mother asked me this every day, I think I would go crazy.

    "What can I think?"

    "Hmph." My mother raised her eyebrows and said to me, "I don''t know you yet. Tell me, now that our family''s debts have been paid off, what pressure do you have?"

    I shook my head.

    My mother paused and continued to ask me, "Then tell mom? Can''t you forget Ding Ge?"

    When I heard my mother''s name, I felt a little uncomfortable, but this time, my mother couldn''t care less about my emotions. She looked at me and ordered, "I can''t control that much. Xing Yun, if you can''t forget Ding Ge, you can chase her back. Or you can have a good relationship with Guzheng. Just give me an answer. Ding Ge and Guzheng, which one of these two girls are you going to choose?"

    I didn''t know whether to laugh or cry, but my mom threw me a multiple choice question!

    But it would be better if it was a multiple-choice question in a textbook, not a choice in life! Ding Ge and Guzheng were not a or b below the multiple choice question. They could just pick one randomly, even if they were wrong.

    I looked at my mother and said helplessly, "Mom, can you stop forcing me?"

    "If I don''t force you, you''ll be a bachelor for the rest of your life!" My mother looked at me angrily and said, "You must give me an explanation today!"

    "Dad!"

    Seeing my mother being so unreasonable, I quickly looked at my father. At least say something.

    My father smiled, but before he could say anything, my mother glared at him and threatened, "Father, if you dare to face Xing Yun today, see how I deal with you."

    My father immediately shrank his neck, took a sip of his own wine, and then said to me, "Son, it''s not that I don''t help you. You know, our man isn''t the head of the family. You can solve your own problems."

    I instantly despised my father in my heart, but in the face of my mother, I still did not dare to look at her sharp.

    So he decided to play dumb and quickly scoop up the rice in the bowl without even looking at my mother.

    My mother was so angry that she couldn''t help but laugh and said, "Do you think I have nothing to do with you?"

    I still ignored my mother, deliberately exaggerating and quickly eating, and making a noise in my mouth.

    My mother was happy again, but then she stood up and walked inside. After that, she took a bank card and put it directly in front of me.

    I looked at my mother in doubt, and I had an ominous feeling in my heart. Was my mother planning to blow it up?

    Sure enough, my mother said to me, "I went to the bank with your father this afternoon, and all the debts were paid off. This card is the rest of the money to pay off the debt. Take it. The password is your birthday."

    Looking at the bank card in front of me, my heart suddenly ached.

    He remembered the days when he used to ask for money from his parents. When he was young, he used to spend it with his parents'' hard-earned money. He never thought about how difficult it was for them. When he grew up, he felt even more ashamed.

    So, after I became sensible, I rarely extended my hand to my parents to ask for money. Although I became sensible later, even though the accident was still the foreign debt they helped me borrow. But now that they have so little savings, how can I take their money?

    I was a little angry, so I put the card in front of my mother and said, "Why did you give it to me?"

    "Of course it''s for you to spend." My mother replied.

    "I have money. I don''t need it. You two can spend it."

    "No, take this money for me." My mother was especially tough.

    "It''s fine. I don''t need money. Why would you give me money?"

    "You''re the only son we have. Who wouldn''t we spend our money on? In the coffin when we die?" My mother looked at me and said in a deep voice.

    "Mom, what are you talking about?"

    "Mom just wanted to say that mom and dad gave you the money, so you can spend it." My mother said, "Look, how much can your father and I spend in a month? Besides, we both have retirement pay, which is definitely enough for both of us. Why do we need so much money?"

    I still don''t want it. Now I should be paying them. How can I ask for their money?

    At this moment, my mother sighed deeply and said, "Xing Yun, you should pack up and return to Pucheng. Don''t work as a teacher. I''ll tell them."

    "Why?" I don''t understand why my mother suddenly said that.
