Chapter 16 (1/2)
”I'm getting married.”
Ye Sitong repeated it word by word.
Ye's mother reacted, pulled at the corners of her mouth and said with a strong smile, ”what nonsense does this child say? Mu Sheng said that you don't even have a boyfriend, so you want to get married.”
”Mom, I'm serious. I'm going to get married. I... I've got his certificates!” Ye Sixi spit out all the things she held in her heart in one breath. She was much more comfortable. She looked at Ye mother.
”Tong Tong...”
Ye Sitong ran to the sofa and turned out the marriage certificate from her bag and handed it to her mother. After staring at the bright red little book for a long time, ye mother stretched out her hand to pick it up, opened it, gradually tightened her fingers holding the marriage certificate, pinched the little book fast and deformed, and her knuckles were pale.
”Who are you marrying?” mother Ye looked up at her, her eyes red and her lips trembling.
”Lin Mubei, you've seen it. It's in the hospital.”
”When did you start dating?”
Ye Sitong thought for a while and decided to lie: ”we have been together for one or two years. We really want to be together.”
”I don't agree.” Ye Mu patted her marriage certificate on the table and said firmly.
”Mom, we've got the certificate. The law has recognized our husband wife relationship.”
Ye Mu was so angry that she trembled and raised her hand to fight, but she saw Ye Sitong holding his head high and a posture of letting him beat and scold. The raised hand could not fall down: ”Tong Tong, you are still young and don't understand the danger of people in society. Lin Mubei has a good family background and must have a lot of women around him. Do you know if he is sincere or just playing with you? Tong Tong, mom doesn't want you to regret later.”
”Mom, you believe me, Mubei... He's not like that.” Ye Sitong was not sure what kind of person Lin Mubei was, but he still stubbornly said good words.
”Tell mom the truth, is there another reason why you married him?”
Ye Sitong was silent.
Ye Mu asked, ”do you want to marry him no matter what mom says? Even if you break with your family...”
”Mom!” Ye Sitong couldn't listen. She said such cruel words and shed tears.
”OK, mom knows.”
Ye's mother looked at her tearful daughter. Her heart was dull and painful. She stood up, and ye Sitong stood up with her. She looked at her carefully and dared not speak again.
Ye's mother couldn't see it. She raised her hand and wiped the corners of her eyes. She hobbled to the room: ”Mom, go to bed first. After you eat, clean up and have a rest early.”
”Click”
When the door closed, ye Sitong collapsed on the chair, closed her eyes and pulled her shoulders. She covered her mouth for fear of crying and being heard by her mother.
Ye Sitong didn't expect things to go so smoothly. She thought she would be beaten or scolded at least. However, her mother's compromise was beyond her expectation, but she also showed her attitude when she left: no objection, but she would never support it.
This is the best result. Which mother can accept a son-in-law who has only met twice?
