Thus, Mama Su dialed the number she had memorized by heart.
On the other side, Yaya stared blankly at the name flashing on the phone screen. Finally, she picked up the phone.
Mama Su's gentle voice came from the other end of the phone. "Yaya, how have you been recently? Have you found a boyfriend? "
Hearing Mama Su's words, Yaya didn't know what was going on, but her eyes became wet in an instant.
Su Yaya couldn't help but think of her dead mother. Her throat was dry, and she called out with difficulty, "Mom."
Mama Su froze for a moment when she heard Yaya call her mom. She hadn't called her that for a long time. It had been so long that she almost forgot her voice.
Hearing her call her mom, she was overjoyed. She quickly responded on the phone and said with concern, "Yaya, how have you been recently? I heard that you have a boyfriend. Is that true? "
Su Yaya answered with a hoarse voice. She looked up at Shen Xiuqi, who was standing opposite her. There was a little reproach in her eyes. "Look at what you posted on Weibo this morning. Even my mom is here."
Shen Xiuqi met her gaze. He raised his eyebrows slightly and asked her, "What's wrong?"
Su Yaya pouted at him and ignored him.
Mama Su asked on the phone, "I heard that your boyfriend is very powerful. What does he do? Have you confirmed it? You must be careful. Don't be fooled by others. "
Su Yaya looked at Shen Xiuqi again. She was very clear about his identity. She couldn't be clearer about it. She said to Mama Su on the phone, "He does business. His family members are in politics. He does seem to be very powerful. There's no problem with that. Mom, you don't have to worry."
Mama Su heaved a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, that's good." Then, she remembered that she and Yaya didn't have a good relationship before. She quickly added, "Mom didn't mean it that way. I'm just worried about you. Girls should be careful when they choose a boyfriend. Whether he's good or not isn't the most important thing. The most important thing is that he has a good character and treats you well.
When Yaya heard this, she thought that Mama Su was a sensible person! "Mom, I understand. You don't have to worry."
Mama Su nodded. "It's good that you understand. I'm relieved."
Yaya smiled and continued to talk to Mama Su on the phone. "Mom, did you call me because of this?"
Mama Su also wanted to talk to Yaya more, so she said all the things that she had been hiding in her heart during this period of time. "You don't know, but a few days ago, you had an incident on the Internet. Someone posted those scandals to slander you. Your cousin, Su Xiaoxuan, came to our house specifically to tell us about it. Your dad and I didn't believe it, so we drove her away."
"But that incident caused a lot of noise. The neighbors also knew about it. They pointed at your dad and me every day. We felt that it was inconvenient to stay in the city, so we went to live in the countryside. We didn't want to face those people and listen to their gossip all day long."
"Your dad and I have been living in the countryside for a long time. Those relatives at home didn't call us before, nor did they ask us if we were doing well here."
"Who knew that your uncle would suddenly call us this morning. He said that you had a very powerful boyfriend outside. He also said that if you came home, you should go to your uncle's place. He said that he had something to ask you for help with. He said a lot of things, but I felt that he was too fake and hypocritical. So I dealt with him tactfully and didn't agree to any of his conditions."
"Later, after I hung up the phone, the relatives at home called me one after another. They all said that you had a powerful boyfriend and wanted to get to know him. I felt that this matter was a little strange. It came too suddenly, so I called to ask you what was going on."
"Now that I know what's going on, I'm relieved. You must take good care of yourself when you're alone outside. Your dad and I are fine at home, so you don't have to worry about us. We just hope that you'll be safe and sound outside."
Su Yaya only found out now that Mama Su and Papa Su had suffered so much because of the incident where she was slandered on the Internet. They couldn't live at home anymore and were pointed at behind their backs every day. They could only run to the countryside to stay away from those people's sarcastic remarks. Both of them weren't in good health, so she wondered if they were living well in the countryside. After all, the conditions in the countryside were still not as good as in the city. It wasn't so convenient for them to eat, wear, live, travel, and even see a doctor.
She didn't even know about these things. It was really wrong of her. She should have called them earlier to ask them. However, because she was a transmigrator, she wasn't mentally prepared to face them, so she didn't call them. This was her dereliction of duty.
"Mom, are you and Papa living well in the countryside now?" Su Yaya hurriedly asked.
Mama Su smiled and replied, "It's good, it's good. The air in the countryside is good, and the quality of the water is good. The vegetables we eat are all grown by the people in the countryside, and the taste is much better than those bought in the city. Isn't your dad in poor health? During the time we lived in the countryside, his cough didn't act up much. Anyway, your dad and I have already retired, and the retirement salary is enough for us. There's nothing to do in the city, so we plan to stay here and not go back to the city. "
Su Yaya thought for a moment. As long as the two of them were in good health, it didn't matter if they lived in the countryside or in the city. She said to Mama Su, "It's up to you. As long as you're happy, you can live anywhere."
Mama Su repeatedly agreed, and the joy in her voice could be heard. She hadn't talked to Yaya calmly like this for a long time. Today's conversation really made her very happy, especially because Su Yaya cared so much about her. Her daughter was still her daughter. No matter what mistakes she had made in the past, she would always be her child in the heart of a mother. She couldn't help but care about her. She hoped that her daughter wouldn't suffer outside, that she wouldn't be wronged, and that she could live a good life.
Mama Su said, "Everyone in the family knows that you have a boyfriend. They know that your boyfriend is powerful, so one by one, they called to ask for your help, to ask you to find a job for your cousin, and some people said that they wanted you to invest. Anyway, it's all a mess. I blocked all of them in one breath. I said that I didn't contact you, and I don't know when you'll be back. I can't make decisions about your matters, so we'll talk about it when you come back."
Speaking of this, Mama Su took a breath and continued, "This matter of opportunity is just talk. If there is, there will be. If there isn't, then there isn't. I'm too lazy to care about those people. When our family wasn't doing well in the past, I didn't see them extend a helping hand to our family. When you were being slandered on the Internet, many people laughed at you behind our backs. Did they think that I didn't know? They knew that those things were fake, but Su Xiaoxuan still came to our house to talk about it. She almost made your dad burst with anger! Now that they see that you're better, they pretend that nothing has happened and come to curry favor with us. I'm too lazy to care about those things that they did in the past. "
Yaya could hear that Mama Su was venting her anger today. She smiled and said in a sweet voice, "Mom, you did the right thing. You don't have to care about those people."
Mama Su laughed and then said, "In fact, these are all trivial matters. The key is that we hope that you can live well. If those people in the family really come to you or want you to help them, you won't agree. You don't have to agree with them. "
"Mom, I know what to do." Su Yaya replied. She thought that those people in the family were so snobbish. Now that they knew the relationship between her and Shen Xiuqi, they wanted to come to her for free. Wishful thinking, but absolutely impossible!
"Is your relationship with your boyfriend good?" Mama Su asked with concern.
Su Yaya glanced in the direction of Shen Xiuqi and said, "It's okay."
