Mother's Tears

Chapter 1 Pretending to be a stranger to chat with my mother

"Sister, are you in a bad mood recently?" Chu Jiangchen knew that his mother would not add strangers on WeChat casually, and she didn't pay much attention to whether there was an extra person in the friend list.

Half a year ago, he secretly used his mother's phone to add his own small account. At first, he didn't rush to send a message. On the one hand, he was worried that his mother would ask him how to add her WeChat, and he was afraid that he couldn't answer. On the other hand, he didn't think about how to start the chat. He couldn't just say: Hello, hi, nice to meet you and other meaningless conversations.

That's why he has been holding back until today.

For more than half a year, Chu Jiangchen thought about it and imagined hundreds of opening remarks in his mind, but he felt that they were not appropriate. Finally, he saw a recent forwarding of an article about mood in his mother's circle of friends and decided to start with this condolence.

It is said that everything is difficult at the beginning. If you want to trick your mother, you must first get familiar with her. After sending the message, Chu Jiangchen stared at the phone nervously, fearing that his mother would not reply.

More than an hour later, Lin Feifei was about to go to bed after washing up, and accidentally saw an unread WeChat. I opened it and read it. I was going to delete it directly, but suddenly I remembered that I had a conflict with my husband these two days. I was inexplicably upset. After hesitating for a moment, I replied casually.

"Who are you?" Chu Jiangchen had been tormented for a long time, and finally waited for his mother's message. A stone in his heart fell: I am not afraid of you replying to the message, but I am afraid that you will not reply.

"I am a fortune teller. I have observed the sky night and night recently and found that you seem to be troubled recently. I came to help you solve your worries and difficulties, and I don't charge you." Chu Jiangchen avoided the main point and didn't answer directly. He started to talk nonsense.

In this way, he and his mother got closer.

Lin Feifei received his message with a confused look on her face. She thought: This person is a liar, so she replied: "Nonsense, how did you predict my fortune among so many people? Who are you? I don't remember adding you. If you don't say anything, I will delete you."

"Wait a minute, please be merciful! Meeting each other among hundreds of millions of people is also a kind of fate. I have three fortunes every day, and today is full, but I made an exception to predict one for you. It is the best fortune I have ever seen."

Chu Jiangchen knows that when chatting with people, if you don't want to talk about the topic to death, you must leave suspense in every sentence, and you can't leave the other party with a topic of choosing one of two. Otherwise, the other party will answer: yes, um, oh, no, etc. This way of chatting is the most fatal.

"What fortune? I have heard of the best fortune, but why don't I know there is such a thing as the best fortune?" After a while, Lin Feifei's reply came.

"Ha, the same principle, I'm afraid you won't understand if I say it too profoundly. Huhu, I told you a fortune about marriage. The fortune says you will have a happy life and a very good and obedient daughter. Am I right?"

Chu Jiangchen deliberately said the wrong thing, saying that his mother would have a daughter, trying to lead the topic to family problems unconsciously, thinking that as long as the other party is willing to share family problems with you, he can slowly open the other party's heart.

It must be said that Chu Jiangchen knows his mother very well. If Chu Jiangchen said that Lin Feifei has a son, it might arouse her suspicion. After all, her mother is not a stupid woman.

"Charlatan." Seeing that the other party did not answer her question, Lin Feifei stopped asking. She didn't have the habit of asking questions to the bottom.

"You are not accurate. I don't have a daughter. Do you often use such an opening to find topics?" Lin Feifei's words startled Chu Jiangchen. It's worthy of being his mother. This is too sharp. If he doesn't answer well, he will probably be blacklisted immediately.

"No, I'll tell you the truth. Actually, I'm not a fortune teller. I just happened to see the article you forwarded and felt that you seemed to be in a bad mood. I also thought of myself and the various troubles I encountered in the past two days, so I wanted to find someone to chat with." Chu Jiangchen knew that his mother was not easy to fool, so he could only try to communicate slowly. After waiting for a while, he didn't see his mother reply, and then he said, "My name is Chen Mingjiang, and I'm glad to meet you. What's your name?" Chu Jiangchen made up a pseudonym for himself. He originally wanted to say Chen Jiang, and reverse the two words Jiang Chen, but then he thought that his mother was not an ordinary character.

If she found something wrong in the middle of the message, everything would be ruined. It's better not to take risks. After sending the message, Chu Jiangchen watched the time pass by minute by minute, and he was very uncertain. He didn't know whether his mother fell asleep or deliberately didn't reply. "Lin Feifei." The time of tormenting waiting always makes people feel particularly long. Chu Jiangchen saw the screen suddenly light up and quickly picked up the phone to look at it. Seeing that my mother's answer was so simple, it seemed that she had no interest in chatting and might not reply to the message at any time, I had to rack my brains to find a topic.

"Hey, my girlfriend suddenly broke up with me and said that she had fallen in love with a rich second-generation guy. Just after studying last night, the guy deliberately drove a luxury car around downstairs of our dormitory. My roommates said he was showing off to me. Now people in the dormitory look at me differently." Chu Jiangchen is now a sophomore in high school and is not a college student.

And Lin Feifei is his current class teacher and also her mother, so Chu Jiangchen concluded that she would come to enlighten him. A good teacher will not give up any student.

"......"

"How many years do you think you will be sentenced for murder?"

"......"

Another string of speechless ellipsis. Not long after, I received another message from my mother.

"What do you want to do? Don't be impulsive. How old are you? Don't ruin your life for such a small thing. When you look back at yourself now, you will regret it." Lin Feifei advised.

"20 years old, sophomore at Peace Normal University."

"Huh?" Lin Feifei was a little surprised. The university in H City was in the same place as her.

In fact, Chu Jiangchen only knew the universities near his home. After all, he was only in the second year of high school and had never been to other distant places.

"You are still so young. There are plenty of opportunities to find a girlfriend. Why do you have to do something illegal and criminal? You still have a bright future. Don't ruin your life for a little thing. You must believe that you will find a good girl who will accompany you for life."

Chu Jiangchen guessed that his mother would come up with such an old rhetoric.

"Sister, you are so nice. Thank you for your enlightenment. I have figured it out. I will find a girlfriend like you in the future."

Lin Feifei was stunned for a moment. She had just prepared a bunch of life principles and rhetoric, but she had already figured it out.

Who would turn back after hearing such a word of advice from her? Even she herself didn't believe it and asked in confusion: "Are you kidding me?"

"How is it possible! Sister, you are right. I have to plan my future life for myself! It's hard to find a three-legged frog, but there are so many two-legged women."

"You, your brain circuit, I think you are still fooling me." Lin Feifei felt angry and funny.

"No, I am the most honest person. Sister, a good person like you, is there still a vacancy for a boyfriend?"

"Little brat, what are you thinking?" Lin Feifei continued: "Be careful, I will go to find your teacher, you will be in trouble."

Lin Feifei herself graduated from Heping Normal University. I don't know if the teacher who taught her is still teaching in this school.

Thinking of this, she suddenly laughed. She actually thought about whether she could find his teacher. It seems that there are too many troubles recently, and her mind has become stupid.

Chu Jiangchen on this side also woke up after hearing this. Damn, how could I forget it.

More than ten years ago, my mother graduated from this school. Fortunately, she only mentioned her name. Otherwise, if my mother met someone from Peace Normal University and asked casually, and found out that there was no such person, she would be stupid.

Chu Jiangchen asked timidly, but the words he said seemed to be a little surprised: "Sister, are you also from H City? What a coincidence?"

"No. I'm from K City." Lin Feifei lied.

Chu Jiangchen saw that his mother didn't tell the truth, and thought about it. How could she introduce herself to a stranger at the beginning.

"Also, don't call me sister anymore, I'm much older than you." Lin Feifei continued.

Lin Feifei was pregnant with Chu Jiangchen when she was in college. Many people of their generation got married in college, not to mention that Lin Feifei's boyfriend at that time, Chu Hongtao, was the son of the boss of a listed company in J City. He was rich, very rich.

The treatment of rich people would definitely be different.

Many people would ask, why is she so rich and still a teacher? I once asked my mother why she didn't go to my father's company, and her answer was that she didn't want to go.

It was not until later that I found out that it was because my father had an ambiguous relationship with his female secretary, and my mother accidentally caught it one time. My mother went home without saying a word.

From then on, the relationship between my mother and father was dead in name only.

Chu Jiangchen had been chatting with my mother for so long, and knew that my mother was no longer so cold at the beginning, at least she was not opposed to chatting with him, and this step was finally taken.

"Then how should I call you? Call you aunt?" Age is not a good thing to ask, and it is meaningless to ask it. Besides, it is not unknown to Chu Jiangchen that he understands all kinds of things in it. "......"

"Grandma?"

"......"

"Delete the friend!"

"Sister Fei, Sister Fei! Sister Fei, is it okay?"

"Whatever you like. I'm going to sleep."

Chu Jiangchen savored his mother's last reply, and a hint of pride appeared on his face. After much effort, he finally squeezed into his mother's friend list.

It has been almost half a year since Chu Jiangchen and his mother started chatting on WeChat. At first, Lin Feifei replied to the message indifferently, and Chu Jiangchen tried every way to find a topic. Later, Lin Feifei opened her heart and slowly began to share with Chu Jiangchen the various joys and troubles in her life.

Of course, she never said anything about her living in H City and her work, and Chu Jiangchen was smart enough to never ask about it. They seemed to be familiar strangers. During the chat, Chu Jiangchen also occasionally interspersed various dirty jokes found on the Internet.

Chu Jiangchen spent so much effort not for the purpose of becoming close friends. Ambiguous topics are indispensable. Everyone knows that women don't love bad men. It depends on whether you can grasp this balance in the chat.
