The Wildest Urban Marriages: Contract Couples

Chapter 25 Mom's Birthday

When Miao Miao returned home, she saw that the lights in the hall were still on.

Miao Miao took out the key from her bag, inserted it into the door hole, and was turning it, but the door was opened by her son first. Seeing Miao Miao's return, her son turned her head excitedly, and shouted, "Dad, it's Mom who came back."

Wen Hui got up quickly when he heard the yelling, walked in front of Miao Miao, took out a bouquet of red roses from behind with a smile on his face, held them in front of Miao Miao, and said tenderly: "Shouxing, I wish you a happy birthday !"

"Birthday? Who is the birthday?" Miao Miao looked at the bouquet of red roses in his hand, and took them with a blank expression.

"Mom, today is your birthday. The teacher arranged a composition "Mom's Birthday" some time ago. I called my father and asked him. He checked it. It was December 12th, which is today. At that time, my father and I agreed , I won’t tell you yet, but I want to give you a surprise and celebrate your birthday,” the son on the side explained.

"Miao Miao, I'm sorry, because of my son's reminder, I remembered how many years I haven't celebrated your birthday for you," Wen Hui said a little regretfully.

Seeing her husband and son's seriousness, Miao Miao was very moved. For so many years, Miao Miao had long forgotten her birthday, and it was a surprise and pleasant surprise that someone suddenly mentioned it.

A family of three came to the restaurant. There was a big cake with 33 candles on the table, and some snacks, bottles of red wine and drinks were also placed on the table.

As soon as Miao Miao and his son Lili sat down, Wen Hui got up suddenly, walked to the wall, and reached out to turn off the lights in the whole hall. The room suddenly became dark, and Wen Hui quickly took out the lighter from his pocket, "Bada!" , the lighter ignited a blue flame, and Wen Hui lit all 33 candles one by one, and the room immediately became much brighter. The flickering candlelight filled the room with a kind of romance.

Wen Hui said: "Miao Miao, today is your No.30 third birthday, I'm sorry, I have been neglecting your birthday, today I just want to say, wife, happy birthday!"

His son Lili also ran to the sofa suddenly, took a homework book, walked up to Miao Miao, and said seriously: "Mom, today is your birthday, and you have always celebrated my birthday for me, but never once, for you I have passed by myself, mom, I want to say to you: Happy birthday, next, I will recite this composition of mine to you as a gift to my mother.

Miao Miao was very surprised by her son's gift, she smiled and looked at her son expectantly.

The son stepped back one meter, cleared his throat, and read aloud affectionately under the swaying wax light.

"When is mother's birthday? I don't know. Later, I asked my father and found out that my mother's birthday is on December 12.

In class, after the teacher assigns this composition topic, he asks all the students in the class, which student can stand up and tell the teacher exactly when is his mother's birthday?

But the teacher asked several times, and there was a lot of chatter in the class, but none of the students could stand up and tell everyone, when is my mother's birthday? .

The teacher said regretfully, students, your birthday is a day of misery for your mother. You were conceived in October and gave birth to you after a life of nine deaths. Perhaps, day after day, year after year of love, you have turned a blind eye to it. In your eyes, you may think that all these contributions are justified, but you have never thought about what is behind this selfless contribution. a kind of loveThe teacher assigned this composition today to ask everyone to remember their mother and this heavy love.

What the teacher said made all the students in our class bow their heads sadly. I was also very ashamed, recalling how my mother treated me well, and recalling the little things of the days.

When I was thirsty, it was my mother who brought me water; when I was hungry, it was my mother who cooked delicious meals for me; when I was wronged, it was my mother who kept comforting me; Yes, it is my mother who is lying beside me day and night and looking after me.

Let alone my birthday.As far as I can remember, my mother has never forgotten when my birthday is. I only know that she remembers my birthday as familiarly as remembering her own name.

Before my birthday comes, my mother will always ask me in advance, what do you like, what do you want, what is your wish, I don't know that, my mother is going to prepare my favorite one's gift.

Maybe the gift is not very expensive, just a toy train, a box of animation DVD, and a box of favorite chocolates, but these things always make me happy all day long. My mother likes to see me happy, she Seeing me happy, there will be a beautiful smile on my face unconsciously.

But I don't know when my mother's birthday is, and I have never celebrated any birthday for her, because since I was sensible, in my memory, my mother has never celebrated any birthday for herself, and I have never asked about it. When is mom's birthday?Here, I want to say to my mother: Mom, I'm sorry.

Sometimes, my mother always frowns inexplicably. I don’t know if it’s because I’m not obedient enough to make my mother unhappy. Seeing my mother’s unhappy appearance, I’m actually very sad. Every time I see my mother suddenly in a daze, I would ask her, what are you thinking, but my mother always hides her displeasure, shakes her head, doesn't say anything, just gives me the biggest smile.

I think, I am still young, and I may not understand some things, but I really hope that my mother is happy, and I hope to see her happy smile.

My father told me that my mother's birthday was on December 12th. I took note of this date carefully, because there is still one week before my mother's birthday, and my mother has never had a birthday. I told my father that I must live a decent life for my mother. On her birthday, let mom know that we love her.

Yes, I love my mother, I want to see my mother's smile, my mother's smile is the most beautiful smile in the world.

Mom, today is your birthday, let me say to you, mom, happy birthday! "

After the son finished reading, he took the notebook, approached Miao Miao, leaned close to Miao Miao's face, kissed her, and said mischievously, "Thank you, Mom!"

Listening to her son's simple words and true emotions, Miao Miao felt the urge to cry, but she tried her best to restrain herself. The childish tone of her son strongly impacted Miao Miao's heart.

Miao Miao had mixed emotions in her heart, happiness, bewilderment, guilt, and remorse all rushed to her heart.

Miao Miao felt that she was so incompetent as a mother. What did she do during this time? She patronized her inner greed and ignored her ignorant son, so that she and her husband came to an irreversible situation today. If the husband can be more tolerant of each other, maybe he will not be with him today. Whose fault is this?

Tears welled up in the corners of Miao Miao's eyes, but she controlled them not to let them slip out, because today is a happy day, a birthday her son specially prepared for her, and at this moment, she couldn't show her sad feelings.

Wen Hui seemed to sense something, and took the opportunity to say, "Miao Miao, the candles have burned a lot, so hurry up and make a wish."

Miao Miao sorted out her messy mood, sat upright at the dining table, facing the wax light, slightly closed her eyes, clasped her hands together, and made a wish: "I hope this kind of happiness can last longer."

Miao Miao finished making a wish, opened her eyes, and blew out all the candles with her husband and son.

When the indoor wall lights turned on again, Miao Miao had calmed down her overly sad mood a little bit, trying to pretend to be happy and happy.Miao Miao cut a big cake for her son, her husband, and herself, while Wen Hui poured half a glass of red wine for Miao Miao and herself, and a glass of drink for her son. He said: "Miao Miao, happy birthday, let our family toast to the happiness tonight!
Miao Miao understood her husband's consciousness. She understood that this was the second and last birthday he celebrated for her.

Miaomiao didn't show any sad expression on her face, she just smiled slightly, raised her glass and said tenderly, "cheers!"

The son on the side also shouted excitedly: "Mom, cheers, Dad, cheers!"

A family of three, laughing and laughing, celebrated Miao Miao's 33rd birthday.

After the son fell asleep, the husband said softly to Miao Miao when he was going down the stairs, let's sit down for a while.

Miao Miao knew that because of the presence of her son just now, her husband might have a lot to say.

Miao Miao and her husband sat back at the dining table. Miao Miao looked out through the window. In the high-rise buildings, every house was lit up. I don’t know how many people will have trouble falling asleep at night like this?
"Miao Miao, let's not divorce, shall we?" Wen Hui suddenly said in pain.

"No divorce? What's the matter?" Miao Miao was a little surprised by her husband's words. She thought that he was going to talk to her about the divorce. Why did she say that she couldn't leave?
Wen Hui didn't say a word, lowered his head, and put his hands on his forehead. In fact, he was also conflicted in his heart. He said he didn't want a divorce just because of an article written by his son just now, which touched him deeply. Before Miao Miao came back, Wen Hui wanted Miao Miao to ask for leave on Monday and go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to go through the formalities.

But tonight's situation made Wen Hui feel a little sad. When he saw the innocent and childish son, and saw the lonely situation Miao Miao tried to hide, he felt a little unbearable in his heart. I don't want to get a divorce.

"What about the dance teacher, isn't she pregnant?" Miao Miao asked.

"I'll go to her job and tell her not to have this child." When talking about not wanting this child, Wen Hui's tone also became low, and he was not sure that he could do her job well.

Hearing her husband's low tone and seeing his contradictory and painful expression, Miao Miao understood everything.

Miaomiao smiled calmly and said: "For a woman who has suffered from infertility for many years, it is such a surprise for her to be pregnant suddenly. How could she agree not to, even if you don't marry her, I miss her I will not be willing to kill this child. I am a woman, and I can understand the importance of a child to a woman. I know what you mean by saying this today. Maybe you are full of emotion because of tonight's situation. Qian Er suddenly couldn't bear it, but we really don't divorce, you will feel sorry for that teacher, you will feel guilty for the rest of your life, and you will even slowly hold grudges against me, maybe you don't think so now, but after a long time, no one will Not sure. Maybe that teacher needs you more than I do, because this child may be her only child in this life. If you do, you may never have another child in this life. You are the father of the child, and you have to take responsibility , don’t let your child be born as an illegitimate child, don’t let that teacher be fired for giving birth without a license, how cruel and cold to her.”

Having said that, Miao Miao couldn't help but sighed.

"Miao Miao, you are so kind." Wen Hui was very moved when he heard Miao Miao's words. His wife didn't feel the slightest bit of blame tonight. Instead, she always thought of herself and the woman she didn't know.

"It's not kindness, but we've come here. We have nowhere to go. Do you think we are so strong and happy? You have no other way to go, and I can only let go. In fact, these days, I also thought a lot, thinking about the little things we were together, why, after we gave birth to a child, we have been noisy, we have been unhappy for many years, but recently we seem to be happy, this is because our emotions are in his heart We have been compensated everywhere, so we are so indifferent to everything in the marriage. It is because of our indifference that our conflicts have been alleviated, but this is just an illusion. I have always felt that this kind of happiness has come too much Hurry up, it's too illusory, I didn't expect that there will be a price to pay in the end, how can there be such a good thing in the world, everything is tired of taking care of you", Miao Miao was very emotional.

? "Miao Miao, thank you, thank you very much, I was too immature before, and didn't cherish our relationship properly. At this time, I really understand how reasonable, kind and gentle woman you are, and I don't like you. Okay, let the situation evolve into what it is now." For Miao Miao's tolerance and understanding, Wen Hui felt deeply guilty and blamed himself.

"I can't blame you, and I'm not good either. I don't think about it with a slap. Maybe after marriage, we can become more mature and rational. I wish you and her happiness, sincerely." Miao Miao has decided Giving up this marriage and fulfilling another woman may also be a kind of fulfillment to myself.

"Miao Miao, I—" Her husband Wen Hui wanted to say something more, but he didn't know what to say.

"Don't worry about the future. Don't think about the decision. On Monday morning, I will take a leave of absence. Let's go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to settle the matter." Miao Miao knew that her husband had been planning to divorce. This matter was just because of tonight's situation, which suddenly made him feel a little nostalgic.Miao Miao thought to herself, instead of waiting for him to make a coy proposal someday, it would be better for her to speak out tonight, to break up with each other, and to save face for herself.

The husband didn't say anything, only that he happened to be free on Monday.

Hearing this, Miao Miao secretly laughed: So he was already prepared, and he still wishful thinking how great he is.

It was 11:30 in the middle of the night, and the two decided to go to bed early, because they promised to take their son to the zoo early tomorrow morning.

Miao Miao washed everything up, and when she returned to her bedroom, she saw her husband standing at the door, not in bed. Her husband suddenly grabbed Miao Miao's shoulders, showing a strange look. Miao Miao knew what her husband wanted to do, and her husband He wanted to repay Miao Miao's magnanimity with physical actions, Miao Miao would not accept this, let alone have no interest in it.

Miao Miao gently took away her husband's hand, said lightly: "I'm not feeling well today", she politely refused, Wen Hui showed a little embarrassment, but didn't force her too much, just patted Miao Miao gently Miao's shoulder, and said softly, "Go to sleep."

The two were lying on the bed, each hugging the quilt, thinking about their own concerns, without saying anything.
