My name is Aunt Li and I live in a busy city. My son Xiao Li has been married for three years, and the baby in my daughter-in-law Xiao Fang's belly is about to be born. Naturally, I am very happy to be a grandmother, after all, I am going to add a little life to my family. Xiao Li and his wife were busy with work, so I took the initiative to come over to help take care of them, from serving tea and pouring water to cooking and laundry.
Xiaofang's due date is just in the past few days, and I am busy every day, thinking about replenishing her body. I made a table of good dishes today, and I was thinking about letting her eat more, when I suddenly heard the sound of a phone call coming from her room.
I'm not the kind of nosy person, but the man's voice on the phone sounds familiar to me, and I can't help but stop what I'm doing. Xiao Fang's voice was surprisingly gentle, and I heard my heart beat a drum, which was similar to her usual attitude towards Xiao Li.
"Ah, don't worry, he won't know......" Xiaofang said on the phone.
I was shocked, but I still couldn't help but bother her, but the doubts in my heart became more and more serious. Back in the kitchen, I looked at the food on the table and suddenly I was in no mood to cook. After thinking about it, I put away all the food and replaced it with instant noodles.
When Xiao Li came back in the evening, he was stunned for a moment when he saw the instant noodles on the table, but he knew that I was not the kind of person who changed his mind for no reason, so he didn't ask much, but comforted him softly: "Mom, you have worked hard, rest early." ”
Xiao Fang came out of the room and frowned slightly when she saw the instant noodles on the table, but she didn't say anything, just whispered a few words to Xiao Li, and the two went back to the room.
That night, I lay in bed and my heart was in a mess. Am I overthinking, or is something really going on? I've always felt like I'm a sensible person, but this time, I really don't know what to do.
The next day, I woke up early and prepared breakfast, still instant noodles. Xiao Li hurried to work after eating, while Xiao Fang sat at the dining table, looking a little unhappy.
"Auntie, why is it instant noodles again?" Xiao Fang finally couldn't help but speak.
I smiled slightly, "Hey, I made a lot of dishes yesterday, and you didn't eat much, I thought you didn't like my dishes." ”
When Xiao Fang heard this, her face changed, but she quickly regained her composure, "Auntie, I know you are working hard, I just think you should rest more." ”
I sighed in my heart, but I didn't say anything, just went about my business.
That afternoon, Xiao Li's good friend Xiao Zhang came to visit the house. Xiao Zhang is a cheerful young man, has a good relationship with Xiao Li, and has special respect for me. When he saw that I was busy, he offered to help.
"Auntie, you have worked hard, let me help you. Xiao Zhang said as he began to help move things.
I smiled and shook my head, "No, no, I'll just do it myself." ”
Xiao Zhang didn't insist anymore, and instead started chatting with me, "Auntie, I heard Xiao Li say that you have been helping here every day recently, and it is really hard." ”
I sighed, "This is what I should do, after all, I am alone at home." ”
We chatted and chatted, Xiao Fang walked out, and when she saw Xiao Zhang, her face changed significantly, and she looked a little uncomfortable.
When Xiao Zhang saw Xiao Fang, there was a look of surprise on his face, but he quickly regained his composure, "Xiao Fang, hello." ”
Xiao Fang smiled reluctantly, "Hello." ”
I saw it in my eyes, and my heart was even more confused. There seems to be some secret between these two people.
The afternoon passed slowly in the dull, Xiao Li came back from work, and our family sat around the dining table. I looked at them, but my heart felt like I was being beaten by something
After dinner, I sat on the sofa in the living room and looked at Xiao Li and Xiao Fang. They looked the same as ever, but I sensed something different. I had so many questions in my mind, but I didn't know how to speak.
Xiao Fang got up to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, while Xiao Li sat on the side and looked at his phone. I looked at them and suddenly felt like an outsider. I used to think I knew my son and daughter-in-law, but now, I'm starting to doubt everything.
The next day, I decided to go out for a walk. I walked through familiar streets, watching the crowds coming and going, and I felt like a forgotten corner of the world.
As I walked, I stumbled upon a park. There were a lot of elderly people playing chess and chatting. I sat on the bench and looked at them, and I couldn't help but feel emotional.
"Aunt Li, why are you sitting here alone?" a familiar voice interrupted my thoughts.
When I looked up, it was Xiao Zhang. He looked at me with a cup of tea in his hand and a smile.
"Hey, Xiao Zhang, I'll just go out for a walk. I forced a smile.
Xiao Zhang sat next to me, "Auntie, you seem to be a little worried." ”
I sighed and looked at the people in the park, "yes, things at home make me a little troubled." ”
Xiao Zhang seemed to want to say something, but hesitated again. I looked at him and suddenly had a bold idea in my heart.
"Xiao Zhang, if I ask you something, you have to tell the truth. I looked at him in a serious tone.
Xiao Zhang nodded, "Auntie, you say." ”
I took a deep breath, "Is there anything between you and Xiaofang that I don't know?"
Xiao Zhang's face changed, obviously he didn't expect me to ask this. He was silent for a while, and then slowly spoke, "Auntie, I ......"
Before he could finish his sentence, my phone rang. It was Xiao Li who called, saying that Xiao Fang's water was broken and he was going to the hospital.
I hurriedly got up, "Xiao Zhang, let's talk again when we have time, I have to go to the hospital quickly." ”
Xiao Zhang also stood up, "Auntie, I'll send you there." ”
We rushed to the hospital, and Xiao Li was already there. When he saw me, he looked a little anxious.
"Mom, you're here, Xiaofang has already entered the delivery room. Xiao Li's voice trembled a little.
I nodded and comforted him, "Don't worry, everything will be fine." ”
We waited outside the delivery room, and it seemed like it had become unusually long. I was nervous, not only because of Xiaofang's production, but also because of the unsolved mysteries in my heart.
After about two hours, the doctor finally came out. With a smile on his face, "Congratulations, it's a boy, mother and baby are safe." ”
Xiao Li was so excited that he almost cried, and I was also relieved. But deep down, that uneasiness still lingers.
For the next few days, I stayed with Xiaofang in the hospital. She is recovering well and her baby is healthy. Xiao Li was obviously relieved, and hurried to the hospital every day after work.
I tried my best to keep myself busy and help Xiaofang take care of the baby, but the doubts in my heart were always there. I began to observe the interaction between Fang and Zhang, trying to find out from it.
One day, I was in the corridor of the hospital and overheard a conversation between Xiao Zhang and Xiao Fang.
"Why are you here, what if you are discovered?" Xiao Fang's voice sounded a little anxious.
"I'm here to see you and the baby. Don't worry, I'll be careful. Xiao Zhang's voice was gentle and firm.
I hid in the corner, feeling like I had been hit with a hammer. At this time, I really realized that there is indeed an unknown secret between Xiao Fang and Xiao Zhang.
I don't know what to do, whether to expose them, or to keep silent. I'm just an ordinary old man, what can I do?
My heart is full of contradictions and struggles, but no matter what, I can't let my son get hurt. I had to find a solution.
At that moment, my heart was filled with pain and struggle. I can't accept the secret between Xiao Fang and Xiao Zhang, but at the same time, I also know that once this secret is exposed, it will completely destroy Xiao Li's happiness.
When I got home, I sat on the couch and fell into deep contemplation. I had to make a decision, but every choice seemed fraught with pain.
A few days later, Xiaofang and the baby were discharged from the hospital. The whole house was filled with the laughter of newborns, but my heart was heavy as lead.
One night, Xiao Li came back late. I sat in the living room, looking at his tired back, and my heart was even more mixed.
"Mom, haven't you slept yet?" Xiao Li sat next to me, looking a little tired.
"Well, wait until you get back. "I try to make my voice sound calm.
We were silent for a while, and I took a deep breath, "Xiao Li, are you and Xiaofang okay?"
Xiao Li was slightly stunned, "Of course, we're fine, Mom." ”
"That's good. I forced a smile, but my heart was turbulent.
A few days later, I decided to talk to Zhang. I asked him to meet him at an obscure café.
Xiao Zhang looked a little nervous, "Auntie, do you have anything to do with me?"
I looked him in the eye, "Xiao Zhang, I know what happened between you and Xiao Fang. ”
Xiao Zhang's face changed, and he looked a little flustered, "Auntie, I ......"
"I don't want to know the details," I interrupted him, "I just want to ask you, have you considered Xiao Li's feelings by doing this?"
Xiao Zhang lowered his head, "Auntie, I know I'm wrong, but I really love Xiao Fang......"
"Love is not an excuse to hurt someone else. I said in a firm tone, "You must end this relationship, for Xiao Li's sake, and for the sake of the whole family." ”
Xiao Zhang was silent for a long time, and finally nodded slowly, "I understand, Auntie, I'm sorry." ”
When I left the café, I had mixed feelings. I made a decision, but I don't know if it was the right one.
When I got home, I looked at Xiaofang and the baby, and I had an indescribable feeling in my heart. I know that the happiness of this family can only be maintained by me now.
Over the next few days, I noticed that Xiaofang's mood was a little low. I know that she may already know about my conversation with Xiao Zhang. But I didn't say much, just silently supported her by the side.
One afternoon, Xiao Li suddenly offered to take our family out on an outing. I looked at his excited face and felt a little conflicted, but I agreed.
On the day of the outing, the sun was shining and the spring breeze was warm. We stopped and walked in the park on the outskirts and enjoyed a rare family time.
Xiao Li held the baby, Xiao Fang smiled beside him, and I took a picture of this warm moment. Looking at this picture, my heart suddenly welled up with warmth.
Perhaps, this is the family. Even if there are contradictions and misunderstandings, there will always be love and forgiveness.
That evening, our family sat around the table and enjoyed a delicious dinner. I looked at them and made up my mind. No matter what happens in the future, I will do my best to protect the happiness of this family.
In the days that followed, I began to pay more attention to the harmony of the family. I try to create as many family activities as possible so that Li and Fang have more opportunities to communicate. I hope that through these efforts, we will be able to alleviate the hidden contradictions that may exist between them.
Although I still have a lot of uncertainty in my heart, I know that as a mother and grandmother, I have a responsibility to maintain the peace and happiness of this family. It may not be the most perfect solution, but at least, at this stage, it's the best option I can do.
Time passed slowly, and the atmosphere at home seemed to gradually calm down. The interaction between Xiao Fang and Xiao Li seems to be more natural, and the arrival of the baby seems to have brought new vitality and hope.
However, there is always a shadow lingering in my heart. I know it's not that simple, but I'm also reluctant to touch a secret that might tear apart this apparent peace.
One day, while tidying up my living room, I stumbled upon a copy of Xiao Fang's diary. I knew it wasn't right to look at someone else's diary, but my curiosity and apprehension drove me to open it.
Xiaofang's handwriting is neat, and every page records her mood and life. As the pages turned, I saw her feelings for Xiao Zhang. She wrote that when she was with Xiao Zhang, she felt more passion and joy than she had ever felt before, but at the same time, it was accompanied by deep guilt and fear.
I closed my diary, and my heart was like a knife. I know I have no right to interfere with her feelings, but as a mother, I can't stand my own son being deceived.
That night, I was lying in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. I have to make some decisions and I can't wait so passively anymore.
The next day, I talked to Xiaofang. I didn't mention the diary, but tentatively asked her some questions about her relationship with Xiao Li.
Xiao Fang's answer seemed a little evasive, she was always talking about the baby and the family, not the relationship between her and Xiao Li.
I took a deep breath, "Xiaofang, marriage is built on trust and loyalty. If there's anything you can tell me. ”
Xiao Fang's eyes flickered for a moment, and then lowered her head, "Auntie, I'm ...... I know. ”
I looked at her, "As a mother, I just want you to be happy." ”
That night, Xiao Li came back late. He looked a little tired when he walked in, but he still smiled when he saw me.
"Mom, why haven't you slept yet?" asked Xiao Li.
"Wait for you to come back. I replied, my heart full of mixed emotions.
I looked at Xiao Li and knew that I couldn't hide it anymore. "Xiao Li, I have something I want to talk to you about. ”
Xiao Li sat across from me and looked at me seriously, "Mom, what's the matter?"
I took a deep breath, "It's about you and Xiaofang." ”
Xiao Li's eyes suddenly became nervous, "Mom, did you find something?"
I was silent for a while, and then said slowly, "I know that family and marriage can't always be flawless, but, Xiao Li, if there is any problem, we can face it together and solve it together." ”
Xiao Li looked at me, a trace of pain flashed in his eyes, "Mom, I'm ...... I also have something I want to tell you. ”
His words shook my heart, and I nervously awaited his next sentence.
"Mom, there are indeed some problems between me and Xiaofang. I noticed that she was a little distant from me, but I didn't know what to do. Xiao Li's voice was low and full of helplessness.
My heart ached, but I knew it was time to solve the problem.
"Xiao Li, marriage requires communication and hard work. You have to sit down and have a good talk, find out what the problem is, and then work together to solve it. ”
Xiao Li nodded, "Mom, I'll try." ”
That night, we talked for a long time, talking about family, marriage, and the future. I feel a sense of relief that at least we're starting to face the problem instead of continuing to run away.
A few days later, I noticed that Xiao Li and Xiao Fang seemed to be trying to improve their relationship. They began to spend more time together and tried to rekindle their relationship.
I looked at them and felt a glimmer of hope in my heart. Perhaps, after this twist and turn, their marriage can become stronger.
I know that the road ahead is still full of challenges, but I believe that as long as they are willing to put in the effort, there is hope for harmony and happiness in this family.
In the process, I am also reflecting on my own role. As a mother and grandmother, how can I better support them while also protecting my own emotions?
I decided that no matter what happened, I would be on their side and give them support and love. At the same time, I will also learn to let go and let them solve and face their problems on their own.
life
Life is always moving forward in constant challenges. Over time, I have observed that the relationship between Xiao Li and Xiao Fang has indeed improved. They began to share each other's thoughts and feelings more, participate in family activities together, and raise the baby together. All of this is changing, slowly, but it is real.
I also started to let go of my worries about them and devote more time to my own life. I joined the senior activities in the community, met some new friends, and started my own interest class. Life has gradually become fuller, and my mood has become more relaxed and happy.
One day, Xiaofang came to talk to me. She looked a little nervous, but there was determination in her eyes.
"Auntie, I have something to say to you. Her voice trembled, but quickly calmed down.
I nodded and motioned for her to continue.
"I know I did something wrong before, I'm sorry for Xiao Li, and I'm sorry for you. Xiao Fang lowered her head, "But I want to tell you that I have completely cut off contact with Xiao Zhang, and I want to devote myself wholeheartedly to this family." ”
Looking at Xiaofang's seriousness, I felt a little relieved. "Xiaofang, everyone makes mistakes, the important thing is to be able to recognize and correct them. I'm sure you'll be a good wife and mother. ”
Xiao Fang had tears in her eyes, "Thank you, Auntie, your understanding means a lot to me." ”
At that moment, I realized that family harmony is not achieved by concealment and evasion, but by facing problems, honesty and communication.
In the following months, Xiao Li and Xiao Fang's relationship got better and better. They participate in family activities together, make plans together, and care about each other's feelings. I looked at them with warmth and contentment in my heart.
I also started to focus more on my life, participated in various community events, and even started learning Xi calligraphy, discovering new interests and passions. I realized that everyone should have their own life, regardless of age.
On a warm spring afternoon, we went on a picnic with our family. With the sun shining on my body and the breeze blowing on my cheeks, I felt more happiness and peace than ever when I looked at Xiao Li and Xiao Fang, as well as the baby playing on the grass.
I took out my phone and recorded this beautiful moment. The baby's laughter, the conversation between Xiao Li and Xiao Fang, and the natural sounds around them form a harmonious and beautiful picture.
At that moment, I deeply felt that the family needs to be constantly worked on and maintained. Happiness, communication and understanding of each member are the keys to building a happy family.
I also realized that as a member of the family, I also have my role and responsibilities. I can't always take on all the burdens, and I also need to learn to let go and let the young people solve their problems on their own, while giving them the necessary support and love.
Life goes on, and every day is filled with new challenges and new joys in this warm family. I'm starting to enjoy the moment more and appreciate each day.
As time passed, I watched the baby grow up day by day, and watched the relationship between Xiao Li and Xiao Fang become more and more stable. I know that no matter what the future holds, as long as we stick together, our family will be able to overcome any odds and meet every beautiful tomorrow together.
This home, this home built with love, is my most precious treasure. I am grateful for every moment spent with my family and for all that life has given us.
