Chapter 282 People are reunited, hearts are not reunited
It's been a long time since I went back to the Lu family's mansion. To be honest, Shen Mo felt a little strange the moment he entered the door.Unexpectedly, it's not as good as when she returned to the Xiao family's old house, she had a sense of belonging.What's going on here... She doesn't think she is a person who has forgotten her roots, but why does she feel so strange to such a place where she has lived for more than ten years?

Just because the heart is far away?

Or is it because there are people here who make her feel strange?
For the current Lu Jiayi, Shen Mo always felt that they seemed to have just met.This person was not the Lu Jiayi she knew before.When there is someone you are not familiar with in an environment you are familiar with, maybe even with this environment, it becomes less cordial.

"Auntie...Happy New Year's Day!" Shen Mo handed the present to Aunt Lu and said with a smile, "Xiao Bei and I chose it together. I don't know if Auntie likes it or not."

"I like it," Aunt Lu said repeatedly before she opened it, "Mo Mo has the best eyes, the things you buy must be very beautiful."

What Shen Mo gave Aunt Lu was a cashmere scarf, the color of which was chosen by Xiao Bei.Shen Mo really didn't lie, this suit was really chosen by Xiao Bei.It's just that the process was a bit difficult, and it was her way of coercing Xiao Bei with force that made Xiao Bei submit.

"This color is so pretty..." Aunt Lu really liked it.

"That's right," Wang Ruoxi also laughed, "This color is the most popular this year, and it's very temperamental."

"It's the suit Xiao Bei chose," Shen Mo said, "It seems that my vision can no longer keep up with the trend. To be honest, I didn't like it when he chose this suit."

Lu Jiayi listened from the side, his expression was already very ugly.Obviously, this is Shen Mo's intentional show of affection.

"Okay, don't hang around this scarf anymore," Lu Jiayi said, "It's not like our Lu family can't afford big-name scarves. What's so good about it? Ruoxi, go and tell Auntie Zhang to prepare a meal."

This time Lu Jiayi didn't make any effort to show his face, and said directly with a cold face.This makes it inevitable that Aunt Lu will be a little bit embarrassed.But with both Xiao Bei and Shen Mo present, it was naturally inconvenient to teach his son a lesson.

He just glanced at him displeased, but smiled and said, "You don't have such filial piety yourself. When you see Mo Mo and Ah Bei buying gifts for your mother, you feel slapped in the face and feel that you can't get off the stage, right? Who told you You forgot? You should be punished! I will punish you for drinking one more drink later."

"Auntie, Yaoyao still has a gift for you." Shen Mo diverted the conversation between Aunt Lu and Lu Jiayi.

Because with Lu Jiayi's current state, even if Aunt Lu gave him this step, he wouldn't know how to jump off it.

It may be that Aunt Lu's condition has been relatively stable recently, so Lu Jiayi is not as worried as before.Sometimes when it comes to acting, naturally, I can't take Aunt Lu's emotions into consideration like before, and I won't show it if I am angry or unwilling.

Suddenly, he felt that it was fortunate that Aunt Lu had arranged for Lu Jiayi to get married early, just when Lu Jiayi first learned of her illness, he was in shock and guilt.If Lu Jiayi got used to it and felt that Aunt Lu was fine, no matter what Aunt Lu said, Lu Jiayi would ignore it.

"Grandma, this is my painting. I will give it to grandma if I have won the little red flower in the class." Yao Yao raised her little hand and sent a crayon drawing to Mrs. Lu.

Mrs. Lu picked it up, but she couldn't stop saying "OK" before she had time to look at it carefully.

"Hey, is this painted by my little nephew?" Wang Ruoxi came up and said, "The color matching is really good. Momo, in my opinion as a professional, who has the potential to be a painter. You This mother, you have to pay attention and train him well."

Shen Mo smiled and said nothing.

Because at this time, if she was asked to respond to Wang Ruoxi's words, it would definitely be nothing to listen to.Because of Wang Ruoxi and Ye Shiya, Shen Mo really didn't like painting.Although I know that I am overgeneralizing, I just don't want Yaoyao to paint, but want to make Yaoyao a musician.Even if it is to write pop songs.

But... this poor little guy, the only way out in the future has already been planned by his father.Xiao Bei will definitely train the little guy to be a very shrewd and qualified businessman.Don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing.

"I don't want to be a painter," Yao Yao said seriously, "I want to be an actor like Uncle Mu, making movies and TV dramas."

"Ah?" Shen Mo, Wang Ruoxi, Aunt Lu, and Lu Jiayi exclaimed almost at the same time.

Although the little guy had expressed his desire to be an actor before, but because he hadn't mentioned it for a long time, Shen Mo didn't take it to heart.I didn't expect him to speak so seriously in front of outsiders today.In other words, this dream has been deeply rooted in his heart.That's why I can say it without hesitation when someone mentions it.

"Hehe... Well, it's good to be an actor." Aunt Lu smiled to smooth things over, and said, "360 lines, every line will be the number one. We are so good-looking. If we are actors, we will definitely win the best actor."

"Being an actor depends on acting skills, not just being good-looking," the little guy said seriously, "If Uncle Mu is only good-looking but has no acting skills, no TV series will ask him to act. "

"Okay." Shen Mo picked up Yaoyao and said, "Don't delay everyone's meal. Didn't you see that the food is already set, and you are waiting to be served? You are not delaying by talking non-stop here Everyone's time? Did Mommy tell you that you must be considerate of others when doing things?"

It is estimated that Xiao Bei has already felt that he has lost face.It's a pity that it's in front of outsiders, so I can't teach Xiao Naibao a lesson now.So the current situation is that he is as aggrieved as Aunt Lu.

This reunion dinner is destined to be discordant.Lu Jiayi's face was always grim, while Wang Ruoxi was helping Aunt Lu adjust the atmosphere.Xiao Bei just buried his head in eating, of course, he didn't move his chopsticks much.It's just a noble attitude of "I don't want to get involved in your family's topic".

They are also people in the mall, how could Aunt Lu not know Xiao Bei's temper?So at this time, I won't look for embarrassment myself.Only when it comes to questions that can be answered with "um" or nodding, will I speak to Xiao Bei.

Xiao Bei was quite cooperative, instead of pretending to be deaf and dumb, he gave an answer of "Yes" or a nod.

After the meal, Aunt Lu was naturally unwilling to let them leave immediately.And Shen Mo actually couldn't bear it.

Although she felt a little strange from the moment she stepped into the mansion, it was her home after all, and as long as she stayed for a while, the sense of familiarity would return naturally.

But because of Lu Jiayi and Xiao Bei's silent attitude, it was obvious that the atmosphere would be even worse when they got together to chat again.It happened that the little milk bag was a little sleepy, so Shen Mo left the hall on the first floor with the excuse of taking the child back to the room to sleep.

After Shen Mo and Xiao Bei left, the remaining three who were usually at home naturally had nothing to say.

Aunt Lu just pointed at Lu Jiayi and said, "You..."

Full of helplessness.After all, this son has been so stubborn since he was a child. If he is in a bad mood, once he shows it, it will be useless for anyone to say anything.Once it is revealed, it will be cold-faced to the end.

In fact, Shen Mo was very curious, why until now, the word "marriage" was no longer heard from Lu Jiayi's mouth, but Wang Ruoxi still acted as if nothing had happened.Continue to stay in Lu's house, continue to pretend to be an unmarried daughter-in-law, continue to respond to Aunt Lu in various ways, and tolerate Lu Jiayi in various ways.

Is it really because of a girlhood dream?If it is so affectionate, it is admirable.

It's just that Wang Ruoxi didn't come to talk to her, and she wouldn't take the initiative to contact her.You can't force her to marry Lu Jiayi as soon as possible, can you?

Maybe turning around, Wang Ruoxi told Lu Jiayi what she said, isn't this asking for trouble?

Yao Yao was sleepy when she was downstairs, but when she went to the room and lay on the bed, she couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

"Let's go, what are you waiting for?" Seeing that Yaoyao couldn't fall asleep, Xiao Bei didn't have the patience to stay here anymore, so he picked up Yaoyao and left.

Shen Mo looked at the time, although he felt that the coming and going was a bit too hasty, but Xiao Bei was impatient, and something must happen if he stayed.

"Auntie, I can't sleep by shaking the bed, let's go back first." Shen Mo said to Aunt Lu who was sitting alone in the living room while going downstairs.

Seeing Aunt Lu sitting on the big empty sofa, Shen Mo's heart ached.

When the child is not at home, if Aunt Lu sits like this alone, it is already heartbreaking.But now that she and Lu Jiayi are both at home, Aunt Lu is still so lonely... This is because they are too unfilial as children.

"Oh... well." Aunt Lu was obviously a little disappointed, but she didn't force her to stay, she just said, "I still want you to sleep here tonight. But the child's health is important, if it is inconvenient, I want to go back Just go back."

Shen Mo could see the tired look on Aunt Lu's face.The exuberant look she used to have has faded even more since her aunt fell ill.On the contrary, the aging gradually climbed up the face and body.But she is only in her 50s now.

Time is really the scariest thing.Even when she was young, she had an alluring look, but she couldn't escape the desolation of a beauty's twilight.The Aunt Lu in her memory was always that beautiful woman in her 30s.Elegant and luxurious, decent and generous, every frown and smile are the most beautiful scenery in the whole banquet.

But now Aunt Lu looks really old.Even though she was still graceful and generous, she no longer had the eager and radiant demeanor of her early years.

Aunt Lu kept sending them to our mouth, but she was still a little reluctant.

"Auntie, we will come back to see you often," Shen Mo said, "and if Auntie misses me and Yaoyao, you can also visit us at home."

Mrs. Lu smiled and said, "Okay, we have plenty of time... Be careful on the road."
