A curtain of dream

I was worrying about how to get rid of this man, my grandfather and mother walked over slowly, my grandfather looked at me, his eyes were not so happy, he snorted, and said: That bastard!

My mother gently put my grandfather's arm around her, and looked at my face with a hint of apology in her eyes.Mu Pengfei walked up to me and said in a low voice: It seems that you and your mother don't look alike at all!

I turned my head and glared at him fiercely. Just as I turned my head, he suddenly grabbed my chin and said in a cold tone: Who hit me?

I slapped his hand away, smiled at grandpa and mother, and said, "Why did you come back? I'm starving to death."

Mom came over and took my hand and said, "Waiting for a long time?"

I nodded, my mother's eyes were slightly bloodshot, presumably she shed a lot of tears this afternoon.I laughed, a little bigger this time, my cheeks were tingling, and I couldn't help reaching out to stroke them.

Mu Pengfei looked at me, then at my mother, and remained silent.

Grandpa said lightly: Pengfei.

Mu Pengfei turned his head and said respectfully to his grandfather, "Yes."

Grandpa said to his mother: This is the child I mentioned to you, Mu Pengfei.

Mom looked him up and down, and saw that Mu Pengfei leaned towards me unconsciously. I looked at him strangely, what kind of action is this!

Grandpa then said to Mu Pengfei: This is your aunt Juan.

Mu Pengfei nodded, restrained his foolish demeanor, and yelled at his mother in a polite manner: "Aunt Juan."

Mom nodded, smiled slowly and looked at me and said: "You already know each other?"

When Mu Pengfei and I heard the words, our eyes collided, and we immediately turned away. I nodded obediently and said, "I know you."

Mom didn't say anything, just laughed.

Grandpa coughed lightly, and said: Shunjuan, you and Luping go upstairs to have a rest, take a shower and change your clothes, after a day of tossing around, you should be tired, Pengfei and I have something to talk about.

Mom took my hand and followed Butler Cheng upstairs.

When I went upstairs, instead of going to the room my grandpa left for me, I followed my mother into her room. As soon as my mother entered the door and saw the furnishings in the room, she sighed and said, "I'm sorry, Dad."

Steward Cheng said on the side: Miss, don't blame yourself too much.

Mom shook her head, smiled sadly, and put her hand on the back of the chair.

Steward Cheng looked at me and said: Miss Luping...

I said: I want to talk to my mother.

He nodded and backed out, not forgetting to close the door for us when he left.

The style of my mother’s room is completely retro, more than twice the size of my room. I looked at it and found that it was all old-fashioned furniture and furnishings. , hasn't changed after so many years, Luping.This is my mother's room before she got married.

I froze for a moment and said: Here...

With a nostalgic tone, my mother said softly: This is my mother's home. It's been 20 years and I just came back for the first time. Everything is still there. Unfortunately, I am already old.

I walked up to my mother, put my arms around her shoulders, rubbed it lightly, and said, "Mom, you treat Dad...

Mom said nothing.

I said softly: No matter what, I support your decision.

Mom was silent for a while, and asked: Don't worry about me, your grandfather said that a room was prepared for you and Ziling, you should have gone to see it, right?Go to your room to change clothes and have a good rest. After a while, we will go down to have dinner with your grandpa, understand?

I nodded, looked at my mother worriedly, and said, "Mom, take a good bath, and I'll come and find you for dinner later?"

Mom nodded, walked slowly to the window, opened the curtains, looked out of the window, I heard her almost inaudible sigh, turned around and quietly opened the door and walked out.

Butler Cheng was waiting at the door, saw me, nodded, and took me to my room.

After arriving at my room, I gently asked: Can I call you Uncle Cheng?

Butler Cheng was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, nodded, and said, "Of course it's fine."

I laughed and said: Uncle Cheng, don't call me Miss Luping, just call me Luping.

Uncle Cheng seemed to understand something, he didn't agree or say no, he just smiled and said: Take a break.

I complied and walked into my room.

Mama Li prepared a very rich dinner, most of which are her favorite dishes, but among these dishes, I only know a few that my mother really likes, and the rest I only found out today. Talking softly, grandpa nodded from time to time, watching mom talking intently, I felt a little guilty in my heart, it seems that in our family, mom's preference is not only me, maybe even Ziling and dad don't know very well, mom knows me , Zi Ling's preferences, very clear about what Dad likes to eat and what he doesn't like to eat, food, clothing, housing, and transportation, and manages our family properly. Thumb, over the past period of time, more than 50.00% of the list of important customers I have sorted out are owned by wives who are close to their mothers.

Mu Pengfei who was sitting next to me suddenly turned to look at me and asked: Why didn't you apply the medicine?

I withdrew my thoughts, looked back at him, and said softly: Does it have anything to do with you whether I apply the medicine or not?

Grandpa noticed the two of us, looked over and said: Pengfei, what are you and Luping talking about?

Mu Pengfei said: I was asking her if she had applied medicine on her face.He smiled at me as if caring.

Grandpa coughed, frowned slightly, and said: I was negligent.Shunjuan, you and Luping didn't take medicine, did they?

Mom picked up a chopstick dish, smiled gently, and said, "Dad, what kind of medicine do you need for such a trivial matter?"But Lu Ping, why is your face still swollen all the time, after a while, go to apply the medicine, you know?

I couldn't help it, so I nodded and gave Mu Pengfei a provocative look. I really hate it, but I still smiled and said to Mu Pengfei: Thank you for your concern.

Grandpa said to me: Luping, don't worry about it for now.

I was stunned and didn't react. After a moment, I nodded and understood what grandpa meant. He probably asked me not to worry about my father and mother's affairs for the time being. Today's behavior must be more irritating than me. I don't want to know what grandpa wants to do, but I just smiled at my mother and grandpa obediently, thinking, when the bankruptcy order comes down, I will slowly watch the performance of my father and Zhu Wanqing Well, even if others call me unfilial.

Mu Pengfei came close to my ear and said softly: "Wang Luping, it's not cute when you smile like this."

I was hindered by my grandpa and mother, so I had to smile at them and eat my meal quietly, as if I didn't hear them.

He put down his chopsticks and said lazily: I'm full.Then he glanced at me and said: Wang Luping, I will see you off later.

Grandpa looked at me and asked: Are you going back tonight? ?

I was taken aback, but I really want to go back, I can't do anything here.So nod.

Grandpa nodded and said: Well, then Pengfei will send Luping back later.

No!I said, looking at Mu Pengfei's bright smile, I felt that it was very dazzling. I really didn't match up with this person, so I hurriedly said: I made an agreement with my friend, and he will pick me up later.

Grandpa's eyebrows moved slightly, and he looked at Mom in a blink of an eye, a little questioning.

My mother looked at me and said: "What friend are you coming to pick you up?"Tao Jianbo?Or Dongjie?

I shook my head.

Mom thought of something and said, "That kid Dongjie hasn't come to our house for a long time. Did you quarrel with him?"

I shook my head.

Grandpa didn't speak, put down his chopsticks, slowly picked up a wet towel to wipe his hands, and listened to us.

I hesitated and said: Anyway, someone is coming to pick me up, so don't worry.

Mom took a look at grandpa and said, "Dad, let Pengfei send Luping to you. Anyway, I will drop by. Luping, tell your friend not to come here, don't bother him, you understand?"

I looked at Mu Pengfei helplessly, hummed lightly, and he looked at me with a hint of triumphant joy, showing his white teeth.

This good meal was disturbed by Mu Pengfei so much that I couldn't eat it well. I ate a few mouthfuls in a state of anxiety, and then put down my chopsticks.

I finally compromised and under my mother's urging, I got in Mu Pengfei's car and followed him back to the city.Along the way, I didn't want to look at him or pay attention to him, but he seemed to have achieved his goal of angering me, driving slowly, humming happily to the music.

====================

I rested my chin on my hands, and there was a slight coolness on my cheeks. Is it because the anti-swelling medicine I took after the meal had an effect?I pressed down on the window pane, the wind blew my face and messed up my hair, I squinted my eyes, the night air was very refreshing, as if there was a faint smell of grass in the air.I turned on the phone, looked through the address book for a long time, found Luo Dongjie's name, thought of the dead Dongdong, my nose was sore, after thinking for a long time, I still sent him a text message: Luo Dongjie, I'm sorry, Dongdong died.After sending, the warning sound that the phone was out of battery beeped, and I turned off the phone without any hassle.

Mu Pengfei, who was driving, said: Where will I take you? V bar?There was a hint of teasing in the words.

I gave him a blank look and said: Let me get off the car when you enter the urban area.

Mu Pengfei said carelessly: How can that be done? Old man Li told me to take you home "safely".

Home?Do I still have a home?My home may soon be falling apart.I didn't speak.

Mu Pengfei said: If you don't talk, I'll take you to V bar.

I turned my head and said to Mu Pengfei: Mr. Mu, I don't have the mood to joke with you now, maybe you don't know what happened to me this day, of course it doesn't matter, but can you please be quiet ?I don't want to talk to you. Also, I think we may have a disagreement. I don't think you can't get used to me, and I can't get used to you either. Can we just maintain our superficial skills in the future?And... I pondered for a while, and said: I hope we can meet less often at Grandpa's side.

silence.

Mu Pengfei was silent for a long time, smiled lowly, and said: It seems...you don't want to see me either!

I propped my chin and turned to look out the window.

Mu Pengfei said softly: I think, you have already seen that old man Li wants to match the two of us.I was stunned, turned my head slowly, and met his eyes. He had stopped laughing, his eyes were sharp as if he had changed, and he said indifferently: I owe the old man my life, so if he wants me to marry you, I will marry you. If you don't say anything, you have to marry, understand?

I looked at the road ahead and smiled. My mind hadn't turned to this direction. When he said this, after thinking about it, it was indeed the case. No wonder grandpa would tell me about Chu Lian, no wonder he would send this Mu Peng Fei came to look for me, no wonder he sent me back, no wonder... I nodded and said: You don't need to marry me, don't worry.

oh?He glanced at me.

I looked at him and said: To be honest, I don't like you as a person, I hope you don't get angry, but this is how I really feel.

Mu Pengfei smiled lowly and asked: You are really honest - then who do you like?

I don't like anyone.

Mu Pengfei resumed his foolish attitude, and said nonchalantly: I know who you like, and you like Fei Yunfan.

I laughed, this man is really good at talking.

Admit it?He glanced at me, his expression seemed to say, I knew you liked Fei Yunfan.

I shook my head and said: You can use your imagination to make up novels, Mr. Mu.

He said: It doesn't matter, if you don't admit it, forget it.

I remained silent for a long time, and I said: I don’t believe in things like whether I like it or not, it’s so illusory and so...fragile, maybe I foolishly thought I liked someone last year, but this year...I lightly Laugh and say: What is like?What is emotion?What is the so-called love?I know nothing and have no interest in knowing.Uncle Fei said that I don’t believe in love, yes, I really don’t believe it, and I don’t want to believe it, it’s that simple, so... I shrugged and said: I can guarantee that you are safe and don’t need to be forced to marry me .

He didn't speak, but I noticed that the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he looked ahead with a half-smile and drove quietly.
