After a brief silence, Jiang Li emphasized: "I have a daughter myself. Have you ever seen me favoring sons over daughters and not caring about my own daughter? Or do you think that your mother favors sons over daughters and dislikes you for being a girl?"
Lin Ran’s cheeks were hot as he was being talked about, and his head hung lower and lower.
"Your mother loves you very much, and I love my daughter very much. From your family to ours, there is no preference for boys over girls. Why don't you want to see your daughter? And you have been constantly troubled by your two children in the past two years. You and Minghan had a quarrel. Do you think it's all the fault of Minghan? I understand that you have many shortcomings as a new parent, but you favor boys over girls, and your attitude towards Kangkang after having your own child. I'm so disappointed in the change!"
Jiang Li looked at Lin Ran steadily: "I know my own child, and I know very well that he will not look for trouble and quarrel with his wife. Let's put it this way, my children are not unreasonable. They know that couples must be tolerant. , we must understand and trust each other, and be tolerant when we should be tolerant, because I warned them one by one before they got married. I just hope that they can live a happy life and avoid getting into trouble over trivial matters in their married life. , thereby killing the relationship between husband and wife.
But because of your own thoughts, you vented your anger on Minghan again and again. After I found out, I could endure it once, twice, or even three or four times, but the more times I endured it, as a mother, how could I not feel sorry for my son? ?
But no matter how distressed I am, have I ever accused you of anything? I pretended to be deaf and mute, and to this day, if I hadn't heard Qiqi's cry, I wouldn't have come to your yard and said what I just said to you.
However, the original intention of what I said was to wake you up and prevent you from continuing to make mistakes. It would be best if you could listen. On the contrary, you can consider whether it is necessary for your marriage with Minghan to continue! "
Lin Ran turned pale instantly. She had really offended her mother-in-law this time. Otherwise, her mother-in-law would not have wanted her to divorce Luo Minghan. Thinking of this, Lin Ran's eyes turned red and she burst into tears. She said, "Mom , I was wrong! I remember everything you said. From now on... I will never quarrel with Minghan again, especially in front of the two children. "
However, Jiang Li did not respond when he heard this.
Seeing this, Lin Ran couldn't help but said sadly: "Mom, I will love Kangkang as my own child, and I will also love Qiqi well!"
“How can I believe this?”
Jiang Li raised his eyebrows slightly, and his voice sounded cold.
Obviously, she was skeptical of Lin Ran's guarantee.
…”
She looked at Minghan with tearful eyes, but Lin Ran found that Minghan didn't seem to notice it at all and didn't look at her at all. For a moment, her heartstrings tightened and she had to make a desperate decision. She just heard her say: "Mom, if I can't make a change and continue to quarrel with Minghan over the children and ignore the two children, as long as you know about it, I will take the initiative to leave this home and go through the divorce procedures with Minghan!"
When these words came out, Lin Ran's biggest feeling was that his heart was like a knife, and the pain was so painful that it was difficult to breathe.
"Okay, this is what you said. I hope you will do what you say. Otherwise, once you make trouble in front of Minghan about the children again and fail to fulfill your responsibilities as a mother to the two children, I will personally watch you leave. This family, stop by the Civil Affairs Bureau to watch Minghan end her marriage with you!"
Speaking of this, Jiang Li turned his attention to Minghan: "Being blindly tolerant does not mean being nice to a person. You have to remember that there must be a certain limit in everything you do. If it exceeds this limit, unpredictable consequences will occur." as a result of."
Standing up, Jiang Li looked solemn. She stared at Minghan and Lin Ran quietly, who stood up together when Jiang Li stood up.
"It takes ten years to cross the same boat, and a hundred years to sleep together. The fact that you are able to become husband and wife shows that there is a fate between you, but the relationship between husband and wife needs to be carefully managed. Otherwise, no matter how deep the fate is, one day they will meet again." When everyone is gone, everything will be fine without regrets. After all, although a broken mirror can be reunited, it still has cracks. "
Jiang Li spoke earnestly, and when Minghan and Lin Ran lowered their heads, she left a message: "You all should think about it carefully!" As the voice fell, she walked away.
The sound of footsteps in the courtyard gradually disappeared, and Lin Ran choked with sobs and apologized to Minghan: "I'm sorry!"
"No, I was also wrong. If I could have cared more about you, we wouldn't have quarrels from time to time." Although she said this, Minghan felt a little depressed in her heart, that is to say , he didn't think he cared enough about Lin Ran's wife. In fact, that was exactly what Minghan thought at the moment.
Let's put it this way, whether at home or outside, Minghan has always taken Lin Ran to heart. Even if the couple has two children, Minghan still treats Lin Ran the same way, but not because of the addition of two children. Because of the child, as Lin Ran thought, he ignored her and spent all his energy on the child.
However, Lin Ran got into trouble. Occasionally she called Minghan, but Minghan was telling a story to the two children. His response was a little slow, so Lin Ran mistakenly thought he was ignoring her.
Or maybe Minghan was washing the clothes of his family of four at home on the weekend, but Lin Ran wanted to go shopping. Minghan responded that he would go after washing the clothes. Lin Ran thought it was Minghan's impatience and pushback.
In short, Lin Ran got into trouble and used her own thoughts to judge Minghan's words and deeds. She felt that she was being ignored and that it was Kangkang and Qiqi who had snatched Minghan's attention, causing Minghan to be alienated and treated coldly day by day. she.
At this moment, it doesn't matter what Minghan thinks. He only knows that his wife needs to be coaxed, and for the sake of family harmony and for the two children to be cared for by their mother, he has to coax Lin Ran well.
Based on this, Minghan felt that it was not a big deal to take half of the blame on herself.
"No...that's not it. You are not wrong. It's because I think too much and forget my responsibilities as a mother that I often quarrel with you because of the children. To put it bluntly, I'm just pretending to have a good life!"
After listening to Lin Ran's words, Minghan put his arms around him and said, "Okay, let what happened be in the past. From now on, let's live a good life and raise our two children."
Lin Ran said "hmm" with a nasal tone.
The couple reconciled, and the atmosphere among the family of four gradually became warm and harmonious as time passed. Children's laughter could often be heard in the yard where Minghan and Lin Ran lived, which shows that the two children and their Mom and dad get along very well.
“You look very good these days. Could it be that something good happened to you?”
Cui Qinglan was Lin Ran's college classmate. He was recruited from another hospital by the hospital where Lin Ran worked more than three years ago. Well, this is a superficial statement, but in fact Cui Qinglan got into the hospital where Lin Ran worked through connections. .
What I want to say here is that although both of them are pediatricians, Lin Ran is an attending physician in the Department of Pediatric Surgery, and Cui Qinglan is an attending physician in the Department of Pediatric Internal Medicine. They are both at the same level. They lived in the same dormitory during college and have similar temperaments. , Lin Ran and Cui Qinglan can be regarded as good friends who talk about everything.
Even though they entered society and did not work in the same hospital, they still kept in touch with each other, and even met frequently for outings, mountain climbing, and dinner parties during holidays.
"No."
Lin Ran shook his head. It was lunch break. Cui Qinglan was sitting in Lin Ran's office chatting. She saw Lin Ran smiling and shaking his head. It was obvious that he didn't want to say more, but she didn't stop talking and continued to ask: "Really not?"
"Um."
Lin Ran responded with a smile.
"I don't believe it." Cui Qinglan's eyes were filled with teasing, and she joked: "Is it possible that you and your lover have been living harmoniously recently, so you are in high spirits during happy events, and you seem to be particularly energetic."
"How old are we? Can you not be so straightforward?" Staring at Cui Qinglan, Lin Ran felt a little uncomfortable: "My wife said that she would take my two children and me to the Maldives during the Spring Festival holiday."
“Then I have to congratulate you in advance!”
Cui Qinglan said congratulations, but don't be too jealous in your heart.
More than three years ago, what she thought was a happy marriage came to ruin due to the intervention of a third party.
The other party was just an intern doctor who had just graduated and started working, but her husband actually betrayed the family and the relationship they had had for many years just for such a woman.
The reason is that she does not want to have a child, and the third party is already pregnant with his child. He wants to give the woman he loves and their child a proper status, even if they have to leave the house and get divorced.
Faced with the betrayer in her marriage, she did not retain him. After the other party left the house, the two quickly went through divorce procedures. Then she sold the house they had lived in together, and through family connections, she Transferred from the hospital where he originally worked.
Because she and her ex-husband met when they first started working. In other words, they met while working in the same hospital, and then they dated for about half a year and got married.
She had made an agreement with the other party before the marriage. Since both of them were too busy at work, there was no need to have a child to cause trouble.
The other party agreed very simply.
The results of it?
The reason for cheating was that she wanted to have a child, the reason for divorce was that she didn’t want to have children, and he wanted to give the woman and child he loved a home and a legitimate identity.
How ridiculous!
It was obviously a good thing, how could this be used as an excuse for him to betray his family and their marriage?
To avoid being angry, she and her ex-husband had a clean break. Even though they both work in Beicheng and are both doctors, they have never seen each other since the divorce.
Divorce was a happy one, but when she was alone, she was inevitably a little lonely, especially with a template of family happiness beside her as a reference, so she couldn't help but have an idea that she shouldn't have.
Since it is an inappropriate idea, from a moral perspective, it is undoubtedly despicable and shameless.
But...but my good friend is really marrying well. Not only is her husband's family background not simple, but her good friend's husband's own conditions are also not good.
He looks good, has a good figure, works well, takes care of his family, and is gentle and considerate to his wife. When he learned that his wife was having difficulty conceiving a child, he did not complain at all. Instead, he expressed words of comfort that it would be better to live a two-person world without children. If you really want to If you have a child, just adopt one.
Cui Qinglan undoubtedly knew all this from Lin Ran.
Lin Ran was not on guard against her friends and often mentioned the matter between her and Minghan in front of Cui Qinglan. Little did she know that her so-called good friend had already started to poach her.
For example, when she complained about the two children at home, saying that this was not good and that was not good, that Minghan did not care about her, Cui Qinglan would give her an idea, that is, she would suggest that Lin Ran should keep the two children cold, so that the children would feel scared and feel that their mother If she doesn't want them anymore, she will take the initiative to approach her, and occasionally make a fuss in front of Minghan to arouse the other person's ideas, thereby increasing the fun of the couple's life and promoting the relationship between the couple.
Cui Qinglan spoke cleverly and acted as if she was doing her best, without arousing Lin Ran's suspicion at all and not noticing the other party's bad intentions.
"There is nothing to congratulate. Minghan said that as long as I want to go out for fun, whether it is to a foreign country or within our country, he can take me there, but the prerequisite is that I have a holiday."
Lin Ran was unaware of Versailles, which made Cui Qinglan feel uncomfortable. She felt that Lin Ran did it on purpose and wanted her to be envious.
“Your husband is so kind to you, I’m so jealous of him!”
Suppressing the discomfort in her heart, Cui Qinglan put a smile on her face, and her eyes deliberately showed full of envy.
“There’s no need to be envious. Let’s go out to play later. If you have time, we can come together.”
Lin Ran said with a smile that she had completely forgotten that Wang Qiang, a female doctor in the same department, poached her, otherwise, she would not have been able to see Cui Qinglan's strangeness.
“Then let’s make an agreement. Next time you and your wife go out to play, don’t forget to call me.”
What went wrong? It was obvious that the relationship between this woman and her husband had become somewhat tense some time ago, and she only needed to add some fire at the right time to make the other person's marriage go on the same path as her previous marriage. But now the other person has taken a turn for the worse, making her Her plan came to nothing, how irritating!
“Can’t forget.”
Lin Ran replied with a smile.
“By the way, how did you and your husband reconcile?”
Cui Qinglan asked pretending to be curious.
“It was my mother and my mother-in-law who woke me up.”
Lin Ran was unsuspecting: "Your method won't work for me. My mother said I've had enough good days and am seeking death."
“What did your mother-in-law say?”
Cui Qinglan asked again seemingly casually.
"My mother-in-law... My mother-in-law said that I was not a wife and a mother. She said that I was just moaning and looking for trouble... My mother-in-law said a lot. After listening to her words, my mind suddenly came to my senses. I felt that I had been wrong. Wrong, it almost ruined my marriage with my husband.”
Lin Ran looked remorseful. She said: "My physical condition is quite special, but neither my mother-in-law nor my husband cared about it. They said that if you can't have children, you can adopt. If you don't want to adopt, you can live a small life as two people. Later, I decided to adopt on my own." A child, but not long after I brought the child home...I forgot what I had said. Anyway, I was so wrong. "
A complex look flashed across Cui Qinglan's eyes. She said, "Aren't you angry with your mother-in-law? She said that to you. If it were me, I would definitely die!" (End of this chapter)
