Chapter 7: like him

After Mu Xiaoya left, everyone in the Bai family gathered around. They kept a distance enough for Shirakawa to feel comfortable and carefully explored what happened in the Mu family tonight.
"Xiaochuan, what did Xiaoya's parents say?" Bai Guoyu was not so nervous when his company went public.
"Did they agree with your marriage with Xiaoya?" Li Rong asked more specifically.
After the parents asked all the questions, Bai Ai could only follow his brother and wait for the answer.
Shirakawa kept walking, walked through the living room, stepped up the stairs, and walked up to the second floor, only to respond to the three words: "Don't agree." After that, he continued to move forward and lock himself. Entered the bedroom.
"Don't agree?" The three Bai family gathered in a circle at the entrance of the stairs.
"Well, it's understandable." Bai Guoyu is more rational than his wife. Although he has a bit of a sour heart, he can still think from the standpoint of his parents. If he was Mu Xiaoya's father, he would not want his daughter to marry a mentally abnormal person.
"I said that Ogawa could not be allowed to go to the Mu family alone." Bai Yan regretted it a bit.
Shirakawa does not like to talk, and his cognition is different from that of a normal person. Even if someone scolds him in person, he does not necessarily react, and he does not know if he was aggrieved at the Mu family this evening. When he was usually at the company, he couldn't wait to arrange Shirakawa's office under his eyes.
"Baiyu, you are ready to present a gift. Tomorrow I and your mother will visit the Mu family." Bai Guoyu thought for a moment, and decided to go by himself.
"If the parents of the Mu family still don't agree?" Bai Yan asked.
"There is no way, we can't force people to marry our daughter to our house." This possibility is not without.
"What about Xiaochuan? Xiaochuan loves Xiaoya so much. You haven't seen how much he looks back just now?" Thinking of this possibility, Li Rong couldn't help worrying.
"Is Ogawa lost?" Bai Guoyu was surprised, wasn't his son just as slumped as before? .
"Of course, you guys are careless and can't see it so clearly."
Bai Yan, who also didn't see it, silently looked away.
"In short, no matter what the Mu family thinks, we must show our greatest sincerity." Bai Guoyu made a decision.
Mu Xiaoya returned home, and her parents were no longer in the living room. Mu Xiaoya paused slightly and went to her father's study on the first floor.
Raise your hand and double click on the door, then push in the door.
"Whatever you want to ask." Calmly stood at his father's desk. Mu Xiaoya knew that during the time he sent Shirakawa away, his parents' messy thoughts were almost sorted out.
"Is it true that you married Shirakawa?" Until now, Shen Qingyi still couldn't believe the fact that her daughter was married.
"It's true." Mu Xiaoya said extremely earnestly. "The day I passed on the day when Grandma Bai died, Shirakawa and I were in a hurry. You were in the school again, so I did not have time to tell you."
"On the day when Mr. Cui died? What are these days? When we went to the memorial service for Mr. Cui, the people of the Bai family said nothing." Mu Ruozhou frowned.
"Perhaps they thought it was sudden."
"What do you mean?" Shen Qingyi was puzzled.
"There are too many things these days. I was married to Shirakawa, and they also knew suddenly. In addition, Grandma Bai left on the same day, and they probably haven't had time to make it clear." Mu Xiaoya explained.
"What do the people of the Bai family think of your marriage?" Mu Ruozhou asked, if the family of Shichuan, like them, was caught off guard by the marriage, what would their reaction be? ?
"Actually ..." Mu Xiaoya smiled bitterly. "When I was in the cemetery today, Shirakawa's mother also asked me if I really planned to continue this marriage."
"What do you mean?" Shen Qingyi asked sensitively.
"Mr. Shirakawa said that although they hope that Shirakawa can be a companion, they do not force it."
"..." After hearing her daughter's recount, the parents of the Mu family were even heavier. What this statement shows is that when they married Shirakawa, the Bai family did not make any persuasion or inducement. It was entirely their daughter's willingness.
"Why are you marrying Shirakawa?" Shen Qingyi puzzled. "Is it because of Teacher Cui's last wish?"
As a neighbor for many years, Shen Qingyi's relationship with grandma has always been good, and naturally she knows what grandma thinks. In the past, when Grandma Bai talked to her about the future of Shirakawa, Shen Qingyi even optimistically persuaded Grandma Bai, saying that there will always be a girl who knows how to appreciate Shirakawa, regardless of his defects.
But human nature is always like this, as observers and parties, the attitude towards the same thing will be completely different. She admired and admired the girl who would take care of Shirakawa's life regardless of Shirakawa's special, but she did not want this girl to be her daughter.
Like the heroine in the beautiful heart of the movie, everyone appreciates and admires the heroine's dedication and tolerance to John Nash, but not everyone has the courage to experience the suffering she suffered.
"I like Shirakawa." This was Mu Xiaoya's answer to her mother.
She knew that there was no reason for her parents to excel her. In order to convince his parents, Mu Xiaoya continued to add, "In fact, I liked Shirakawa very early. You also know that I used to go to Shirakawa's home most. So a few days ago, Shirakawa ran here Proposing to me, as soon as I was happy, I agreed almost without thinking. "
"Shirakawa suddenly proposed to you. Have you ever thought he might be for his grandma?" Mu Ruozhou reminded.
"I thought about it and asked him."
"Then how did he answer?"
"Shirakawa said, Grandma Bai asked him to marry someone he likes, and then he came to me." Mu Xiaoya answered.
The Mu family husband and wife are silent again. Shirakawa is an autistic child. A major feature of autistic children is that they are unwilling to communicate with others. They will not lie, and will not find reasons to excuse themselves. It is their truest feeling inside. Shirakawa said that he likes Mu Xiaoya, so he must really like it.
"Xiaoya, have you ever thought that you would have a hard time with Shirakawa?" Mu Ruozhou could not help reminding.
"Yeah Xiaoya, although Ogawa is a good boy and very smart, but he always has autism. He can't express his feelings like a normal person. Your so-called like, it may take a few days. It will be smoothed by reality. At that time, it may hurt both of you. "Shen Qingyi added to her husband's words.
"Parents, I've thought about all this, but I still want to give it a try." Mu Xiaoya said, "I only talked to you after careful consideration."
The so-called worry of his parents, Mu Xiaoya can actually understand, but as a rebirth, Mu Xiaoya feels that his ending with Shirakawa is just like the last life. He died of illness, and Shirakawa became a coward . No, it should be better. Shirakawa in this life can avoid the fate of disfigurement and become a good-looking coward.
"What about studying abroad?" Shen Qingyi asked again.
"I won't go." Studying abroad, Mu Xiaoya didn't plan to go at the beginning.
"Don't go? Go to Sg to learn design, isn't it your dream all along?" Shen Qingyi could not believe.
"Mom, I will explain this to you later."
Mu Xiaoya knows that her change is too abrupt, and one after another makes it difficult for her parents to accept. But she couldn't tell the truth. The hereditary disease that would break out after four years could not be detected at this moment. The only thing she could do was spend the rest of her time with them.
"Mom, I really want to marry Shirakawa. Just like you wanted to marry dad, you promised." The truth is almost the same, Mu Xiaoya began to adopt a coquettish strategy.
"You have all your cards, do you still need us to agree?" Shen Qingyi pushed her daughter away with anger.
"I didn't do this right, but it wasn't urgent at the time, and I really forgot it later, I'm sorry." Mu Xiaoya disregarded her mother's dislike, and posted it without a face or skin.
Shen Qingyi glanced helplessly at her husband, and Mu Ruozhou's eyes were full of helplessness. As his wife said just now, her daughter and Shirakawa have already obtained a certificate. Even if they oppose it, they cannot change the fact that her daughter is married. Moreover, after being a teacher for more than 20 years, they are very clear that there are certain things that children have not experienced by themselves. As a teacher, you have taught as much as possible and they still cannot listen.
But as a parent, my daughter got married in such a situation, and I didn't feel it in my heart: "This matter, my mother and I have to think again."
"How long do you have to consider?" Mu Xiaoya asked.
"Considered, naturally I will tell you." After that, Mu Ruozhou stood up and left indifferently.
After seeing her husband leave, Shen Qingyi left her daughter with an expression of begging for happiness, and then left in unison.
In front of the empty study room, Mu Xiaoya scratched her forehead silently, scratched and suddenly burst out laughing. For her parents, she has been a teacher of a lifetime and is most reasonable. She never forced the child to do something or not to do something. The only thing in their minds was whether she was willing or not, whether she wanted this criterion or not.
They thought about it all night and asked her so many questions, but there was no sentence that forced her to leave Shirakawa, but just analyzed the advantages and disadvantages over and over again and asked her if she really thought about it.
In fact, think about it carefully. In the twenty-six years of the last life, except for a short time to live, did not have a good relationship, and did not spend a lot of time with her parents, Mu Xiaoya felt that her life was actually very happy.
A gust of evening wind blew from the window, and the rice paper on the table case was rattled. Mu Xiaoya pressed the paper of his dad's baby rice paper with paperweight and closed the window by the window. The window of the study was facing the courtyard of the white grandma's house next door. Now that the white grandma is gone, there is no dark lights in the courtyard, which is extremely empty, and it makes Mu Xiaoya's heart suddenly feel uncomfortable.
If they left after four years, would their parents look at their bedroom as if they were looking at Grandma's yard now?
Or, it should be more sad.
