doting on one's wife
Chapter 170 The Du Family Manor
Xiao Manwei knew that this was Du Ruolei's grandmother.
After a while the old man opened his eyes, "Xiao Lei is back?"
"Yes, grandma, I'm back." Du Ruolei stepped forward, squatted on the edge of the rocking chair, and held the old man's hand.
The old man looked at Du Ruolei lovingly, "Bad boy, do you miss grandma?"
"Yes." Du Ruolei replied with a smile. "Weiwei, this is my grandma, grandma is Weiwei." Du Ruolei waved at Xiao Manwei.
Xiao Manwei came over and called grandma very politely.
"Weiwei." Come here and let grandma take a good look. The old man took Xiao Manwei's little hand and asked her to squat in front of him, watching carefully, as if scrutinizing her. "She is a good girl. Xiaolei is not allowed to bully others."
"Grandma, how can I bully people." Du Ruolei smiled playfully.
"Weiwei, if Xiaolei bullies you, tell grandma, grandma will help you decide." The old man urged with a look of disbelief.
Xiao Manwei held the old man's hand instead, "Grandma, Ah Lei is very good to me and won't bully me, don't worry."
The old man was smiling, and then just fell asleep again.
A worried look appeared on Du Ruolei's face.
After leaving the small courtyard, the butler was waiting at the door.
"How long has grandma been like this?" Du Ruolei said coldly again.
"Since yesterday, I fell asleep while talking. We asked the doctor, and the doctor said, maybe it will only be a few days, so I called the young master." The housekeeper said with his head down.
"Where's that man?" A trace of disdain burst out of Du Ruolei's eyes.
"The master is rushing back," said the housekeeper.
Du Ruolei snorted coldly, it's nice to rush back.
"Weiwei, you go in to accompany grandma, I'll take care of some things and come back to pick you up." Du Ruolei said softly to Xiao Manwei.
Xiao Manwei nodded, went into the yard, found a small stool and sat beside the old man's rocking chair.
The old man woke up while sleeping, and chatted with Xiao Manwei when he was awake, fell asleep while chatting, and repeated, Xiao Manwei naturally knew that the old man's time was running out.
More than two hours later, Xiao Manwei was still patiently chatting with the old man. Hearing the old man talk about many things about Du Ruolei when he was a child, Xiao Manwei felt warm in his heart. This old man must love his grandson very much.
Suddenly there were loud footsteps outside.
Xiao Manwei looked towards the door.
A middle-aged man was surrounded by a well-dressed middle-aged woman holding his arm, and Du Ruolei followed behind with a gloomy expression.
The middle-aged man looked five points similar to Du Ruolei, handsome and elegant.
Xiao Manwei got up, and the old man also opened his eyes. When he saw the middle-aged woman, the old man shouted in a deep voice, "Get out, it's not your turn to enter my yard. Get out!"
The old man's violent reaction startled Xiao Manwei.
"Mom, I'm here to see you." The woman's eyes were slightly red.
"Come back to see if I'm dead or not. If I'm not dead, I'll be mad at you. Get out! Butler!" The old man coughed violently. Du Ruolei and Xiao Manwei hurriedly patted the old man on the back and brought her a water glass.
The woman was invited out by the housekeeper.
The middle-aged man's face was gloomy, but he still didn't say a word.
The old man stabilized his emotions, looked up at the middle-aged man, and said slowly, "My will will be announced at my funeral, you can go too."
The middle-aged man shook his body, "Mom, after all these years, you still refuse to forgive me."
"Forgive, heh, forgive you for making me unable to face Xiaolei's mother when I dreamed back at midnight? Or let me forgive you for causing infinite harm to Xiaolei, eh." The old man spoke sadly, and a line of tears ran across his old face .
"Mom!" The middle-aged man knelt on the ground.
"You're not leaving yet." Du Ruolei said coldly.
"Xiao Lei, you don't forgive Dad either." The middle-aged man's eyes fell on Du Ruolei's face.
Xiao Manwei's hand trembled, Du Ruolei actually had so many secrets in her heart, she subconsciously reached out to hold his hand, it was cold.
There was warmth in the palm of my hand, Du Ruolei met Xiao Manwei's eyes, and tried to show a smile that I was fine. "From the moment my mother died, I didn't have a father."
The middle-aged man trembled, and the butler at the side stepped forward to help him, "Master, go back first."
The middle-aged man slowly exited the yard.
Only then did the old man turn around and face Xiao Manwei, "The family scandal made Weiwei laugh."
"Grandma." Xiao Manwei shook the old man's hand gently, as if everything was in silence, but the distressed look in her eyes warmed the old man's heart.
At dusk, Du Ruolei drove the car and left the manor.
Along the way, Du Ruolei didn't say a word, and Xiao Manwei didn't ask, everyone has secrets or scars that they can't share with others, and every time they mention it, it feels like it hurts again.
Arrived downstairs at Xiao Manwei's house.
"Thank you, Sister Wei." Du Ruolei said the first sentence.
"You're welcome, grandma is not in good health these few days, so you can take a few days off first, and then make up for it when grandma's health is stable." Xiao Manwei said softly.
"Okay, then I'll go back." Du Ruolei watched Xiao Manwei go upstairs and drove back to the manor.
Gu Yiheng was not at home on duty at night, Xiao Manwei was bored watching TV alone, eating snacks, when the phone suddenly rang.
"Miss Xiao, hello."
"Mr. Liu?" Xiao Manwei thought in surprise, how could Liu Dingqi call herself at this time.
"Let's have dinner together, I know Mr. Gu is not at home today." Liu Dingqi's voice came.
"Is there something wrong?" Xiao Manwei asked.
"I want to talk to you about Ding Ding." Liu Dingqi said, there was no ups and downs in his voice, as if he had never been politely rejected.
"Well, then, where can I find you?" Xiao Manwei asked.
"I'll be downstairs at your house, waiting for you." Liu Dingqi hung up the phone.
Xiao Manwei went to the window and took a look, she saw a royal blue sports car downstairs, she hurriedly changed her clothes and was about to go downstairs.
She is dressed in white casual clothes, sneakers, and her hair is tied up high. This kind of dress is also very suitable for Xiao Manwei's temperament, and her small face without makeup is delicate and pleasant.
"Miss Xiao, please." Liu Dingqi got out of the car and opened the door for her.
"Thank you."
"What to eat?"
“Home cooking is fine.”
"It just so happens that I know a private kitchen that tastes good, so I'll take you there." Liu Dingqi started the car.
Not long after, the two came to a well-decorated private kitchen.
Liu Dingqi asked Xiao Manwei to order, and Xiao Manwei ordered some special dishes.
"You want to ask me why Ding Ding and Mr. Huo are having trouble?" Xiao Manwei took the initiative to mention Ding Ding's matter.
"Is there nothing to do with Ding Ding, even if you want to invite Miss Xiao to dinner?" Liu Dingqi said half-jokingly.
"Mr. Liu really knows how to joke." Xiao Manwei smiled awkwardly.
"I really want to ask why Ding Ding is angry." Seeing that she was a little embarrassed, Liu Dingqi naturally stopped talking and changed the subject.
"The thing is like this." Xiao Manwei simply told what happened when Huo Yifeng went to visit the class, of course, Lan Die's name was not mentioned.
"Zixuan is also filming?" Liu Dingqi naturally remembered Xu Zixuan, Ding Ding's only friend when he was a child. Ding Qi went abroad to take over the family business and ended up.
I hadn't contacted her for many years, and suddenly there was such a floating feeling in my heart.
"That's right, Zixuan and Ding Ding are filming opposite each other." Xiao Manwei said.
"Is there any role for Ding Ding tomorrow?" Liu Dingqi asked.
"Yes, Ding Ding's expressiveness is very good. The screenwriter and director are very appreciative and continue to add scenes to her. Now she has more scenes than the second female lead." Xiao Manwei also talked a lot more about Ding Ding.
"Don't tell Ding Ding, I'm going to visit the class tomorrow." Liu Dingqi said.
Xiao Manwei nodded.
After dinner, Liu Dingqi sent Xiao Manwei home. The car was speeding along the road. Suddenly, Xiao Manwei saw a familiar car, Gu Yiheng's car. The two cars passed by. Xiao Manwei saw a woman sitting on the co-pilot. The woman he had dinner with last time was named Meng Meng.
For some reason, there was an inexplicable uneasiness in my heart.
Xiao Manwei was restless when she returned home, and finally called Gu Yiheng.
"Yaya, do you miss me?" Gu Yiheng's voice was still warm without any fluctuations.
"Well, where are you?" Xiao Manwei asked tentatively.
"Where can I be? I'm on duty in the army." Gu Yiheng smiled and replied that he didn't feel anything wrong.
Xiao Manwei originally wanted to ask if you had been out, but she struggled for a while and still didn't ask. "Then go to bed early."
"Okay, you are too, my wife, good night." Gu Yiheng smiled and hung up the phone.
"Brother Gu is really nasty." Meng Meng couldn't help but joked out of a pile of documents.
"Heh, it's not wrong to be messy with your own wife. You're not too young, so hurry up and settle yourself." Gu Yiheng put down his phone, walked to the table in a few steps, and picked up a stack of documents to read.
Gu Yiheng didn't see a bitter smile on the corner of Meng Meng's mouth, and the two of them were not talking, looking at the information in their respective hands.
Xiao Manwei was lying on the big bed tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. I don't know why the oppressive feeling that Meng Meng brought to her could not be expressed. There was no reason for it. Maybe this was a woman's sixth sense?Xiao Manwei laughed at herself. Gu Yiheng had already reported it when he left the house. Maybe the army needed help from the comrades of the procuratorate. of.
Really unable to sleep, Xiao Manwei took a sleeping pill and finally fell asleep in the early morning.
The strength of the sleeping pills came up relatively late, so Xiao Manwei was late gorgeously, and it was already nine o'clock in the morning when she woke up.
Wu Tian called Xiao Manwei on the set.
"Vivi?"
"Ah Tian, I'm sorry I got up late." Xiao Manwei's voice was slightly hoarse.
"Are you sick? The voice doesn't sound right." Wu Tian asked with concern.
"It's okay, you help me deal with it first, I'll pack up and rush over there right away." Xiao Manwei got up and got out of bed.
"Don't force it. If you feel uncomfortable, take a day off." Wu Tian said softly.
"En, good." Xiao Manwei hung up the phone and rushed to the bathroom to wash up and pack up. It was already 09:30 when she went out. There were really not many cars on the road after the morning rush hour, so she drove quickly to the set.
When passing by the procuratorate, he took a subconscious glance and saw Meng Meng get off Gu Yiheng's car, and the two said goodbye with a smile.Xiao Manwei's mind went blank.
He drove the car to the set in a daze, his face was so pale that he could almost see any blood.
"Sister Wei, your face is so ugly." Ding Ding stepped forward and touched her forehead, "You have a fever, why are you sweating so much, Sister Wei!"
After a while the old man opened his eyes, "Xiao Lei is back?"
"Yes, grandma, I'm back." Du Ruolei stepped forward, squatted on the edge of the rocking chair, and held the old man's hand.
The old man looked at Du Ruolei lovingly, "Bad boy, do you miss grandma?"
"Yes." Du Ruolei replied with a smile. "Weiwei, this is my grandma, grandma is Weiwei." Du Ruolei waved at Xiao Manwei.
