Chapter 31 Childhood Sweetheart
"Then why not?" Molly didn't know why she asked such a question.
Hearing this question, Peggy's eyes widened. She covered her forehead with her hands and sighed, without saying anything for a long time.
Molly was also very sad. She regretted saying that, but she was stubborn and could not take it back or change it into other questions.
Her eyes were red, waiting for her mother's answer.
Peggy chuckled, which was supposed to be happy, but now it was very heavy. She said, "Later, we thought that you were on good terms when you were children, but you may not be good when you grow up. At that time, we thought that if you were not on good terms, or if you were really brother and sister, then you didn't have to be embarrassed by an engagement.
Taking a look at Molly, Peggy continued, "If both of you want to get married when you grow up, and you grow up together, you're childhood sweethearts and know each other very well. Of course, we won't refuse the marriage."
Molly's lips moved. Looking at her mother's tearful eyes, she didn't say anything.
Peggy's tears streamed down her cheeks. Looking at her daughter who looked more and more beautiful, she said, "Molly! I've been through this. I can tell from your eyes that you have a crush on Allen. If... If there is nothing wrong with Allen's brain, even if your Uncle Robert and Aunt Sarah have passed away, I will still be willing to marry you to Allen. But...
Peggy wiped the tears from her eyes with her fingers, paused for a moment and then said, "But Allen is like a child now. If you really like him and marry him, how can you get happiness?"
Hearing her mother's words, Molly understood every word, but she didn't understand what these words meant when they were combined.
Molly looked at her mother with red eyes and tears. She understood something a little, she only got the answers to two questions in her mind from her mother's words.
She liked Allen. Her love for him was not simply brother and sister, but really man and woman.
"Mom..."
Molly didn't know what to say. She could only call out in a low voice, "Mom... Mom...'
Peggy held Molly in her arms, letting Molly's tears wet her neat clothes. But Peggy still had to say what she should say.
"Molly, let me tell you. Women are too stupid compared to men. There is only one chance for a woman to fall in love in her life. I hope you can have a good look and really find the person who can make you happy."
"Don't you always want me to find someone to marry?" Molly wiped her tears on Peggy's clothes and said angrily.
Peggy didn't get angry. She just nodded at Molly's forehead and said, "Are you childish? I did it because I wanted you to find a good man to marry, but I didn't let you get married so casually. Peggy sighed and said, "I just said that everyone has selfish motive. I also like Allen and feel sorry for him. But everyone's love is different. Compared with Allen, I still love my daughter the most. ' Looking out of the window at the fast flying scenery outside, Peggy said, "I can only say sorry to your Aunt Sarah. But as a mother, I believe that your Aunt Sarah can understand." Molly felt more headache. She straightened up, leaned on the chair and said to Peggy in a low voice.

"Mom, let me think about it. Let me think about it myself."
