Chapter 45 The Weird Dinner

Almost when Du Ran fell asleep, a black figure appeared beside the bed, which could be vaguely seen to be a human figure.

"Oh, I forgot."

A hoarse and deep voice sounded faintly, and Du Ran in his sleep frowned unknowingly, as if he was not sleeping well.

Time passed quickly, and the black shadow just stood by the bed and looked at Du Ran, until her eyelids slightly moved to prepare to wake up, and the shadow disappeared.

Du Ran slept very comfortably this time. She thought that lying on an unfamiliar bed would be somewhat uncomfortable, but she thought too much, maybe the bedding around her was too warm, and minimized her discomfort.

Getting up, Du Ran got out of the bed, sharp-eyed saw a piece of clothing on the bedside, it was a dark red cheongsam, with a peony pattern embroidered on the neckline, it was lifelike, the embroidery was evident, but she clearly remembered that she was sleeping In the past, there was no such cheongsam on the front bed.

Reaching out to pick up the cheongsam, the tentacles are icy cold, even those who don't know the goods know that the material is excellent, compared to his figure, it fits perfectly, as if it was custom-made, Du Ran is even weirder.

Instead, thinking of the Tang suit worn by Grandpa Shen and this quaint house, Du Ran automatically understood that this family is a typical old-fashioned style, so now she is asked to do as the Romans do?

Although the weirdness in her heart deepened, Du Ran knew very well that she had no room to resist here, and she was not an uninformed person, so she quickly took off her white clothes and pants, and put on a cheongsam , I have to say, this cheongsam is really custom-made according to her figure!It fits so well that it cannot fit.

Standing in front of the wooden vanity mirror, Du Ran looked at it with satisfaction. After thinking for a while, he slowly coiled his waist-length hair into a ball. The people who appeared in front of the mirror were just like everyone who came out of the Republic of China period. Lady.

Du Ran didn't feel any discomfort seeing herself like this, then she pushed open the door, looked at the sky, it was already dark, and then followed the road that I deliberately wrote down today, turned a few turns and returned to the hall, where The lights had already been turned on, and a few figures were swaying.

Speeding up her pace, Du Ran was not used to letting others wait for her, but when she just stepped into the hall, her body froze.

Also froze were several people sitting in front of the large pear blossom table.

For the first time, Du Ran resented herself for thinking too much. Who could tell her what happened to these men and women in very modern clothes?Shouldn't they be advocating retro nostalgia?

The old man sitting in the middle looked up and down Du Ran in surprise, and then said gently: "This dress suits you very well."

Du Ran was so embarrassed that he turned around and wanted to go back and change his clothes, but was stopped, "Sit down, it's time to eat, I'm going to be called."

Helpless, Du Ran had no choice but to tug on the cheongsam in embarrassment and sat down.

The rest of the people also withdrew their surprised gazes one after another and took their seats one by one.

It wasn't until this time that Du Ran had the opportunity to look at the people who were seated. There were two middle-aged men, one was taller and the other was thinner. There were two well-maintained women sitting next to them. They seemed to be a couple. There were a few radishes, and they all looked at her like animals, which made Du Ran embarrassed again.

"Xiao Ran, is the room satisfactory?"

Grandpa Shen's words saved Du Ran from embarrassment. She coughed twice and said, "Thank you, I like it very much."

There was a flash of light in the old man's eyes, too fast to be seen, and then he said with a little dignity: "This is Du Ran, my granddaughter-in-law, you remember."

Du Ran turned pale because of the word 'granddaughter-in-law', but then she accepted it with her lips pursed without any objection.

"Xiaoran, these two are my two unfilial sons, Shen Congwu and Shen Congwen."

Du Ran hesitated for a moment, met the old man's meaningful gaze, moved his mouth, and said in a low voice, "Uncle, Uncle."

It seems that with this title, her identity has completely changed, and this change is her own choice.

"Good boy, this is the housekeeper, you can tell him if you need anything."

Shen Jun, that is, the old man, pointed to another old man who was also aged and wearing a brown Tang suit standing beside him.

"Miss, you can call me Uncle Zhong." The tone was respectful, and there was no fault in it.

Du Ran nodded and replied "Uncle Zhong", barely recognized the entire family, but I don't know if it was an illusion, everyone here, except Grandpa Shen, seemed to have an inexplicable feeling for her. A sense of peeping, and a faint fear.

fear?How could it be fear?Du Ran's heart tightened, she was just an ordinary person, and it would definitely not be herself who could make them fear, then it could only be her identity.

"Let's have a meal. You will get familiar with it later. Let Xiaoran try the taste. You can just tell Uncle Zhong what you want to eat in the future."

Shen Jun picked up the chopsticks first, and the rest of the people slowly picked up the bowls. Du Ran found that it seemed that in this family, the old man in front of him was the absolute authority. No one dared to raise any objections, even if her name was wrong The words didn't go well, and it was even very ridiculous, and no one said a word, as if they accepted it silently.

The food on the table was very rich, most of which were types that Du Ran had never tasted before. She unknowingly ate more than usual, and she was a little full. After the meal, Shen Jun didn't say anything, and let everyone disperse , but Du Ran was left alone.

"Xiaoran, if you need anything, you must tell me. Grandpa will satisfy you."

Du Ran shook his head and said, "Thank you."

"I hope you don't mind taking you over in such a hurry."

After hearing this, Du Ran hesitated for a while, but still said: "Shen... Grandpa, when can I go home? You know, my mother's health is not very good, I want to go back and see her."

Shen Jun just looked at Du Ran meaningfully, and said slowly: "Xiao Ran, you have to get used to living here. This dress suits you very well."

Looking at Shen Jun's still gentle face, but the intolerance of rejection in his tone made Du Ran understand his attitude. Sure enough, there is no such thing as unreasonable, she should have known it earlier, but she will not compromise on this point.

"I can live here, this is my obligation, but I hope I can visit my mother regularly, this is also an obligation that cannot be shirked."

Shen Jun's old eyes kept looking at Du Ran, who stood up without any fear. Finally, Shen Jun took a step back and said, "You are a filial child. Grandpa can promise you that after the ceremony, you can go home Once, and every time that passes, I'll have your mother come over."

Du Ran grasped the point, she asked her mother to come over instead of her going out, so does she have to stay in this house?The sense of disobedience in his heart deepened, but Du Ran wisely did not bring it up, but accepted the setback and thanked him in a low voice.

Shen Jun waved his hand, with a look of tiredness on his old face, he said, "Go back, except for the backyard of this house, you can walk freely, remember, don't break into the backyard."

"it is good."

Du Ran stepped back, walked on the corridor, and was about to go back to his room. At this time, it was already late, and the surroundings were eerily quiet, except for the sound of insects.

Enjoying the coolness of the old house, this is especially prominent at night, and the exposed skin felt a little bit of coolness, Du Ran couldn't help speeding up her pace, and bumped into something out of reach, so scared that she couldn't help but let out an exclamation , looking down, it was the mute little girl Miao Miao.

Du Ran's heart was beating violently, and he quickly squatted down to look at Miao Miao and said, "Where did you come from? You scared me to death, why are there no footsteps?"

Miao Miao just kept smiling, very sweetly, completely ignoring the meaning of Du Ran's words.

Du Ran sighed dejectedly, what does she care about with a child?Just when she was about to hold Miaomiao's hand, she saw the little girl's eyes staring straight behind her without blinking, as if there was something behind her.

Du Ran froze for a moment.
