The seventh year NO.22

When Xia Lu woke up, she was in the hospital, the wound on her forehead was throbbing with pain, Xia's mother was sitting next to her and tightly holding Xia Lu's hand, it was pitch black outside the window.

"Xia Lu, are you awake, do you still have a headache?" Mama Xia asked hoarsely.

Xia Lu blinked her eyes, her mind went blank, and it took her a while to remember what happened. She was knocked unconscious by the cup, and then her parents sent her to the hospital.

"Mom, it's okay, I don't hurt anymore." Xia Lu comforted her mother softly.

The door of the ward opened, Xia's father held a medical record and a pile of receipts in his hand, Xia Lu looked at the gloomy father, the pain in his heart was worse than the injury on his forehead.

"Dad..." Xia Lu said.

"Don't call me." Xia's father didn't want to stop to say a word at this time, but he couldn't stop feeling annoyed in his heart. He was too impulsive and shouldn't have done it. Looking at the white gauze on Xia Lu's head, he couldn't stop Distressed.

"Old Xia, the child has been beaten into the hospital by you, what else do you want to do?" Xia's mother glared at Xia's father angrily, and blamed him for being so cruel. The doctor said that Xia Lu's forehead wound was very large and might leave a scar. Mother Xia looked at her daughter's fair face, what if she really had scars.

The family of three sat in silence until dawn.

Xia Lu called the company to ask for leave. She was so injured that she couldn't go to work. Xia's father went out early in the morning, and Xia's mother stayed at home with Xia Lu.

Xia Lu locked herself in the room alone, holding the DIY clay figurine that Xiao Zi gave her in her hands, with a warm smile on her lips. It turned out that after saying it, it was really a lot easier, but she was burdened with another kind of guilt and self-blame .

At noon, Xia Lu's cell phone rang, Xiao Zi called, Xia Lu hesitated whether to answer it or not.Xia's mother knocked on the door, Xia Lu got up to open the door, and the phone on the bed kept ringing.

Xia's mother glanced at the phone, "Let's eat first." Then she turned and left.

Xia Lu ignored her phone and walked out of the room to the restaurant.The mother and daughter had lunch quietly, and the cell phone in the bedroom rang three times in a row.

"Xia Lu." Mama Xia couldn't help crying as soon as she opened her mouth.

"Mom, I'm sorry for you. Mom didn't take good care of you and let you go on this road today. Xia Lu, you give mom a chance. Mom will stay with you from now on. Don't..." Xia mother held her hands Mouth, I can't speak any more, my whole body is trembling with pain in my heart.

Xia Lu took out a tissue and gently wiped away tears for Mother Xia, "Mom, I know that you and Dad love me very much and hope that I will be happy and that my future life will be smooth and smooth. I also struggled, during that time I was so painful that I wanted to commit suicide, but I couldn’t let go of you, because of you I have the courage to face my true self.” Xia Lu smiled lightly, but tears kept flowing.

Xia's mother didn't listen to anything, the only thing she heard was the word "suicide", she became emotional, "Xia Lu, you can't do stupid things, you are the fate of your parents." Xia's mother cried It was even worse, the tears couldn't stop flowing, and in the past few years, there were not as many tears as these two days.

Xia Lu hugged her mother tightly, "Mom, I won't, I won't."

After a good lunch, the two hardly touched their chopsticks.

Xia Lu comforted Xia's mother for a long time, and Xia's mood was stable. Xia Lu watched Xia's mother lying on the bed and fell asleep before leaving.

After tossing and tossing all night last night, almost the whole family of three didn't sleep much. Mother Xia's nerves were tense all the time, and she was so tired that she couldn't hold on any longer, so she slowly fell asleep.

Xia Lu returned to the room and replied to Xiao Zi's text message, saying that she had something to do these few days and would contact her when she was done. Xiao Zi asked what was the matter, but Xia Lu hesitated for a long time and did not reply.

Xia Lu asked for a three-day leave. These three days were the most gloomy for Xia's family. The three of them barely ate every meal. The silence in the room made people feel uncomfortable. Xia's father always stood by The balcony smoked silently, Xia's mother sat on the sofa and shed tears, and Xia Lu sat blankly in the room.

Xia Lu felt that she still needed to have a good talk with her parents. She walked out of the room and sat next to Xia's mother, "Mom, don't cry." Looking at her mother's red eyes, Xia Lu felt distressed.

Father Xia looked at the mother and daughter sitting in the living room, his heart felt as if it was torn apart, these two were his life in this life, how could he let his wife and daughter live in such pain.

Xia's father walked into the living room and sat next to Xia Lu, "Xia Lu, Dad has been thinking for several days, I will not agree with you and that Xiao Zi, you should give up as soon as possible, and find a man." A friend is getting married." Dad Xia put his hands on his knees, not looking at Xia Lu or his wife.

Xia Lu's heart tightened, her father always said one thing, but this time, Xia Lu could see that her father's attitude was very tough, and she felt more and more that her parents were unlikely to accept her homosexuality.

Mama Xia looked at the father and daughter nervously, and the word "suicide" kept lingering in Mama Xia's mind. Compared with losing Xia Lu, Mama Xia would rather her daughter live a good life, regardless of her daughter and her life. who is together.

Xia Lu knew that what she said now seemed superfluous, so she could only wait until her parents got used to her feelings. Even though it was difficult, she would not give up. For herself, for Xiao Zi, and for their future happiness, this For once she had to fight it out.

"If you don't want to get married, Dad is willing to support you forever." Dad Xia's eyes were red, he would never allow his daughter to be gay.

This sentence deeply hurt Xia Lu, under the fluorescent light in the room, her father's white hair was so clear, Xia Lu's heart was churning, how could she be so unfilial, how could she be so cruel to her parents.

Xia Lu originally prepared a bunch of words to persuade her parents but did not say a word. Xia Lu opened her round almond eyes, tears flowed from them, and her silent crying showed the pain in her heart. The pain caused her to shed tears , nothing else can be done.

"I want to know what is the most important reason why you can't accept it?" Xia Lu asked in a hoarse voice after being silent for a long time.

"Xia Lu, mom knows that you told us about this, you must have thought about it for a long time, but have you thought about it for mom and dad?" Xia's mother saw Xia Lu in such pain, she was more sad than Xia Lu.

"We only have a daughter like you. We don't expect you to be rich and powerful. As long as you live a good life and live a peaceful life, just like many ordinary people, you have your own home, a husband who loves you, and a child in the future." , This is what all parents hope for, and now you..." Xia's mother hid her face in pain, and she couldn't continue the following words.

"I also want to live as you said, but I can't do it." Seeing her mother crying all the time, Xia Lu felt like she was going to collapse.

"Nothing is impossible. Is she more important than the parents who gave birth to you and raised you?" Father Xia stood up excitedly. Mother Xia was afraid that Father Xia would make another move, so she hurriedly hugged Xia Lu into her arms.

The conversation this time was fruitless, the family atmosphere was gone, the warm and happy family of three disappeared overnight, and Xia Lu fell into deep self-blame.

When Xia Lu went to work normally, the gauze on her head had not been removed. During lunch, Xiao Zi kept staring at Xia Lu's forehead, and when she wanted to ask what was going on, she stuck it in her throat. Xia Lu saw Xiao Zi's Thinking, she said with a light smile, "Accidentally bumped into it, it was a little red and swollen, my mother made a big fuss, but it's fine." Xia Lu's fingers trembled slightly, she didn't dare to think, if Xiao Zi knew that she had a showdown with her family, would she How to see her.

"I think we still need to go to the hospital to have a look after we get off work. Your injury is on your face. What if there is a scar?" Xiao Zi lost her appetite at all, and hadn't contacted Xia Lu for a few days. , seeing Xia Lu wrapped in gauze, she must be in a bad mood.

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Seeing that Xiao Zi didn't eat anything, Xia Lu picked out a few of Xiao Zi's favorite foods and put them in Xiao Zi's bowl.

Xia Lu's mood became extremely heavy. Looking at Xiao Zi like this, she felt as if she had fallen into a place of ice and fire. Just like what her father said, is Xiao Zi more important than her parents?Before this, she felt that this could not be compared, because her lover and relatives were on the same balance, and it was difficult to distinguish which was more important, but now she was forced to make a choice.She doesn't want to choose, and she can't choose.

When Xia Lu came out of the office building, Xiao Zi was already waiting for her at the door. The two agreed to go to the hospital. Xiao Zi kept asking Xia Lu if her forehead would hurt.

Sitting in the car, Dad Xia saw Xiao Zi holding his daughter's arm. His intimacy made him feel uncomfortable. He opened the car door and saw Xia Lu walking towards him. He hesitated and called Said, "Xialu."

Xia Lu stopped in her tracks and saw her father standing beside the car, just stubbing out the cigarette in his hand. Since he knew what happened between him and Xiao Zi, the number of his father's smoking has doubled.

"Dad, why are you here?" Xia Lu pursed her lips and asked.

"Hello, uncle." Xiao Zi greeted with a smile. She rarely saw Xia Lu's father. This should be the third time. In her impression, Xia Lu's father is a serious person.

Xia's father glanced at Xiao Zi, his eyes were weird and complicated, Xiao Zi was taken aback, a little confused, why Xia's father looked at him with disgust and resentment in his eyes.

Xiao Zi tightened his grip on Xia Lu's arm, then turned his head to look at Xia Lu, Xia Lu just turned to look back at her, and gave her a calm smile.

"I happened to be passing by, and I thought it was time for you to get off work, so I'll drop by to pick you up." Dad Xia said as he opened the car door.

Of course Xia Lu knew that her father didn't just pass by, he must be waiting for her here, "Xiao Zi, you go home first, be careful on the way."

Xiao Zi was startled, staring at Er Xia Lu's forehead, "But, the injury on your forehead..."

"It's okay, I'll apply the medicine when I get home, and I've already brought the medicine back from the hospital, don't worry." Xia Lu comforted Xiao Zi, her almond eyes were crooked, and she couldn't see anything unusual.

Xiao Zi left with anxiety, and said goodbye to Dad Xia before leaving. Dad Xia didn't even look at Xiao Zi, and got into the car directly.

Xia's father didn't drive home, he went directly to Xia Lu's favorite restaurant, ordered Xia Lu's favorite dish, and ordered a bottle of white wine.

Xia Lu looked at the table full of her favorite dishes, her heart felt like it was frying in a frying pan, the pain made her unable to breathe smoothly.

The weather at the end of July is sultry with a breeze, and it coincides with the evening when the sunset in the west is fiery red.Father Xia drank three glasses in a row before pouring wine for Xia Lu.

"Xia Lu, our father and daughter haven't eaten together for a long time. Today's dad's treat is all your favorite food. Eat more, you must eat more." Xia's father kept adding vegetables to Xia Lu. The bowl in front of Lu is piled up with various dishes like a hill.

Xia Lu clenched her chopsticks tightly, and the food in her mouth contained a familiar taste, which made it even more difficult for her to swallow.

Xia's father kept drinking, and after a while, half of the bottle of wine disappeared. Xia Lu wanted to stop him, but she knew she couldn't.

"You have been very obedient since you were a child. You didn't cry much when you were born, unless you were hungry. When you grew up, you were still very obedient. Your mother and I didn't care much about your studies. The teacher never called me. We filed a complaint, which made me, a father, both gratified and guilty. I am gratified that my daughter is so sensible, but I am ashamed that my daughter does not seem to need a father." Father Xia was a little choked up when he said this, he took a deep breath and drank another cup liquor.

Xia Lu has never had a heart-to-heart talk with her father. In her impression, her father is often on business trips. He seldom takes her out for fun, and cooks delicious food for herself most of the time.When Xia Lu was a child, she was a little afraid of her father. Her father didn't talk much, and she didn't laugh often. She didn't even dare to talk to her father.

"Xia Lu, if I do it all over again, even if I don't want this job, I will grow up with you." Dad Xia's words are really sad. Over the years, he has spent too little time with Xia Lu Yes, when Xia Lu was young, when he needed father’s love, he just wanted to earn more money so that Xia Lu could live a better life. Later, when his daughter grew up and didn’t need father’s love so much, he wanted to accompany her again. He is already living with his daughter, but her daughter already has her own life, which makes him feel a big gap.

Xia Lu's parents feel that Xia Lu's becoming like this has a lot to do with their caring for Xia Lu too little, so they want to use more fatherly and motherly love to compensate Xia Lu, so that Xia Lu can return to normal in life.

"Dad, you are the best dad in my heart." Xia Lu held back tears, the pain in her heart made her go crazy, that heart-piercing feeling was really painful.

"Xia Lu, how about Dad sending you abroad?" Dad Xia looked at Xia Lu with reluctance spreading in his heart.

Xia Lu was taken aback, going abroad?Why?She doesn't want to go abroad, she never thought of going abroad. "Dad, I..."

Xia's father stopped Xia Lu, "Xia Lu, go abroad, stay away from her, and it will get better slowly. Dad really can't accept it. I tried. These days, when I think of you, you will live with a girl in the future." Together, Dad can't bear it all, I beg you, Dad." Dad Xia's tone was gentle, with prayers, which dealt Xia Lu a heavy blow.

Xia Lu couldn't bear it anymore, and burst into tears. She didn't want to go abroad, and she didn't want to go abroad. She and Xiao Zi finally got to this point, and she couldn't give up like this.

It's finally updated, everyone has been waiting hard.Well, I'm trying to add more.Thank you for your support.
