What?
When she saw this message, Samantha froze abruptly. Only yesterday they met, and she wants to do horoscope already?
Besides, who could be interested?
Thinking about this, Samantha retorted the message in a depressed way.
"Mom, these days who needs horoscope now?"
After the message was sent, Samantha's mother called directly.
"What time is it now? Everyone is getting married and has to combine their birth dates, how come there is no need to do that anymore?"
When she heard Rain's voice, Samantha could not help but wince, "Isn't this something that was done only in ancient times? In the past, parents introduced us to each other, and some of us didn't even meet. If you don't do it right, do we have to separate because of that?"
Rain answered firmly, "Exactly."
At that point, Samantha looked into the void.
"Then no."
Rain: "Girl, do you think I won't find out if you don't give it to me? Do you know how much her mother wants you as her daughter-in-law? If I had asked her mother the date of her son's birth, she would have sent it to me right away."
"Well then go ask, don't mind me anyway, I don't care about the outcome, I only believe in myself."
Rain was furious with Samantha's comments and spoke to her at length, Samantha finally did not want to listen anymore and hung up.
After hanging up, Samantha slowly stood up holding the phone and propping herself up on the edge of the bed, then dragged her tired body into bed.
Rain was about to say something to Samantha when a busy signal came on the phone, and she was so angry that her face paled and threatened her in front of her own husband.
"Look at this girl, she must have been spoiled by you, now she is so wild, she doesn't even ask her date of birth, who gets married without predicting the future?"
Ideo, who was sitting opposite her, coughed slightly, "We didn't do that when we got married."
Rain blinked disapprovingly, "Who said we didn't?"
"Yes?" Ideo was a little surprised, as if he didn't know: "When? Didn't they say they weren't?"
Rain's expression was sullen as she set the phone down on the table beside her.
"It was my mother who went behind our backs to put us together, I didn't want to then as much as Samantha did, but she went behind our backs and then told me we were a match made in heaven."
Ideo was clearly delighted when he heard the words "a match made in heaven," and a look of joy appeared on his face, "A match made in heaven? And if it didn't have those results, would you have refused to marry me?"
"What's the point of bringing up the old story?
" Rain gave him a disgruntled look and his tone became stern, "Are you trying to get me into trouble? I told you I would not be with you no matter what."
When his wife became aggressive, Ideo dared not say anything, and he had to persuade her, "Rain, don't be angry, I was only asking because I was surprised. And I don't think we wanted to do it then, so if Samantha doesn't want to do it, then let's respect her."
"But did she finally do it? She didn't want to do it, so it was her mother who did it for her."
It was only then that Rain understood why her mother had done what she did.
What she valued as a young woman suddenly didn't serve her as an adult, and what she wanted as an adult was no longer so important in middle age.
Just as she did not understand why her mother always had to interfere with her feelings, was it not out of concern?
