Chapter 223: "I'll Pick You Up"
Later, Pei Shaobei seemed to find out when I went to tutor, and he didn't appear in front of me for two weeks, but his mother told me that Pei Shaobei sent someone to send a lot of things, all of which were for Gu Xiao.
I expressed helplessness about this, but I advised my mother not to care too much, just accept it, after all, these things are for Gu Xiao's use, and we didn't take advantage of the Pei family. My mother's face was a little worried, and she just nodded after hearing what I said.
I was busy earning money, and the studio introduced me to translation work a few times, so I didn't pay attention to my mother's mood changes too early. But my mother couldn't hold it back, and when I was free, she asked, "Wanwan, what do you say Shaobei planned for Xiaoxiao? I bought so many things, but I didn't come up to take a look, but asked someone else to send them." Moreover, there have been many times when I have waved to him in the community, but when he sees me turn around and leave, he doesn't even say hello. Late and late, I've been thinking about it all these days, but I can't figure it out. If you want to say that he doesn't care, it's not right, he obviously cares about Xiaoxiao very much, otherwise he wouldn't have peeked in the community so many times. If he cares, then why doesn't he come upstairs generously?"
It's not that I haven't had my mother's questions, but I can't figure it out, let alone Pei Shaobei's attitude towards Gu Xiao, or Pei Shaobei's attitude towards me, I'm confused. One moment cold, the other moment he showed a lot of concern, and he was completely unsure of what he was going to do.
"Mom, I don't know, I don't know much about Pei Shaobei. Before we were together, he was the one who took the initiative. And many things, he chose not to tell me, I used to feel at ease with him, I don't have to worry about anything, just listen to him, but now I feel that I am more free and comfortable not to be with him!"
After hearing this, the mother sighed, shook her head and asked, "Could it be that you plan to spend your whole life with him like this? Do you think he can spend so much time with you? Even if he is willing, is Pei Jiaken? And you, later, you are Chinese New Year's Eve today, and you still have a child, how much youth can you waste? In another three or five years, what capital do you think you can catch Pei Shaobei?"
Mother's also made me feel chills, to be honest, I agreed with my relationship with Pei Shaobei during this time. I always feel that there is a sense of distance between the two people because the children are involved in each other. It seems that it is really a family, I will not feel burdened because of the Pei family, nor will I be suspicious of his occasional indifference and forbearance because I want to marry Pei Shaobei, I feel very free, but I deliberately ignore time and ignore the future.
It may not be that they ignore it, but they choose to ignore it and choose to escape. Time is too cruel for me to think about it. The words that my mother said pierced my heart like a complete spike, and I didn't know how to resist it, so nakedly, I was stripped off the last disguise by the cruelty of reality.
After disguise, what is shown, in addition to the bloody facts, is the fragile and helpless heart.
"Mom, do you have to tell things so thoroughly?" I was a little angry, turned around and sat on the sofa, cleaning up the toys that were thrown everywhere by Gu Xiao on the ground.
"Mom has to think about you, you're deceiving yourself if you keep going like this. If you really don't want to have any future with Pei Shaobei, then your mother won't stop you Aunt Li from introducing you to someone!" said her mother with a little threat.
I was so angry that I stomped my feet, "Mom, blind date, do you think that today's men, in addition to being divorced, who would want me to be a woman with an oil bottle!" I was a little self-defeating, and my words became more and more sharp and ugly, "Even you can see that a woman like me has no prospects, either Pei Shaobei marries me, or I will be single for the rest of my life, and I will die at home!"
"You, are you gambling with me, or are you gambling with yourself? If you don't think about yourself, shouldn't you also think about Xiaoxiao, he is still young at this age, and he doesn't know what his parents mean, when he is two years older, can you hide it if you want to hide it from you?" My mother was angry that iron could not be made of steel, and she pointed at me and said, "You just shrank in your shell and be a turtle, right?" If you don't ask, your mother will ask, and the next time Pei Shaobei comes, I will block him and ask for an understanding!"
"Mom, can you stop being so nonsense?" I stood up angrily and glared at her, and when I saw her reddened eyes, I sat back on the sofa helplessly, scratched my head and said, "Mom, can you not force me like this? What do you say you blocked Pei Shaobei? Ask people if they marry your daughter? What is the difference between this and forced marriage? Do you have to hear Pei Shaobei say something humiliating to me before you give up? When you let me see him the next time I see him, what face do you have to support, and what confidence do you have to fight for Gu Xiao's stay!"
"Wanwan, do you really think Shaobei will take Xiaoxiao away? Mom is from here, although Shaobei's attitude towards Xiaoxiao is very contradictory, but Mom can see that he is not the kind of person who snatches people's children. If he really wanted to rob, he wouldn't have sneaked around the neighborhood to see. Wanwan, what are you afraid of? Are you really afraid that Gu Xiao will be snatched away? Or are you afraid that Pei Shaobei will reject you? In fact, my mother thinks Pei Shaobei ...... to you."
I was a little annoyed and angry, and stood up angrily to interrupt my mother's words, "I won't tell you, I'm annoyed, I'll go see Xiaoxiao!"
Ignoring his mother, he pushed the door and entered the bedroom. Gu Xiao was still sleeping, so I sat on the edge of the bed and sulked with myself. I couldn't face my mother's words, I didn't even know what I was afraid of, and I felt a deep contempt for my current state.
"Gu Wan, Gu Wan, what's wrong with you!" I patted my head desperately, and finally hung my head helplessly, and after sitting for a long time, I curled up next to Gu Xiao and closed my eyes, but my mind was full of Pei Shaobei's shadow over and over again.
The days quickly slipped to the Spring Festival in such a tangle, and every house was full of lights, so it was not lively.
Gu Xiao was extremely afraid of the sound of firecrackers, and his little head was locked in my arms, no matter how much he coaxed him, it was not good.
When my father died, we couldn't post Spring Festival couplets at home, so that it became more and more desolate in the whole lively and noisy atmosphere.
My mother's mood is not high, maybe she will miss her father more deeply when the festival comes, so I naturally persuaded her not to move, so I had to let her talk to my father in the storage room.
Only Gu Xiao and I were left in the whole living room, the feeling of loneliness became stronger and stronger, I felt sour in my heart, and I didn't want to stay any longer, so I told my mother to take Gu Xiao to the supermarket for a stroll.
My mother didn't stop me, but she asked me to buy some New Year's goods.
I nodded in response and went out with Gu Xiao in my arms.
The taxi for the Spring Festival was not easy to take, and I waited at the intersection for more than ten minutes before the car came.
I took Gu Xiao in the car and went to the largest supermarket in the city center.
The distance was a little far, but Gu Xiao was curious about the environment isolated from the sound of firecrackers, and got out of my arms, looking at the scenery outside the car window, babbling significantly and excitedly.
I look at him like this, and I'm even happier with my decision. Children shouldn't grow up in too oppressive environments, and I don't want them to feel sad at such a young age.
As I talked to him, I pointed out the scenery outside and led him to see it.
After more than forty minutes of driving, Gu Xiao was so excited that he couldn't stay in my arms. I paid for the car, opened the door and got out of the car, and found a trolley at the door of the supermarket to put Gu Xiao on it. It was the first time Gu Xiao went out to the supermarket like this, and he became interested in the trolley he had newly acquainted.
I actually don't have anything to buy, so my mother and I eat it, and I don't need to prepare any New Year's goods at all. However, seeing that Gu Xiao was curious about some things, I took some and put them in the shopping cart while introducing them. Gu Xiao was very curious about my behavior, and followed my example, pulling things and putting them in the shopping cart.
I was made to cry and laugh by his behavior, but my mood slowly improved because of his nonsense. I didn't dare to hang out in the snack area anymore and pushed him to the fruit section. The Spring Festival is approaching, the fruits in the fruit area are very fresh, I picked a lot, and exchanged experiences with some mothers who also came to buy fruits, and I felt that the harvest was very fruitful.
There are a lot of knowledge and tips that you can't get from books, but some of the lessons you have learned are even more valuable. I bought some more meat, accompanied Gu Xiao to pick one he liked in the puppet pile, and then checked out and went home.
Back and forth, I went out in the morning, and it was almost a little bit when I got back. Gu Xiao drank milk powder on the way and slept soundly. I couldn't hold anything at all while holding him, so I had to call my mother at the gate of the community and ask her to come down to pick it up, while Gu Xiao and I sat in the security room and waited.
The security guard on duty wanted to help me send it there, but I didn't like to let others see the desolation of my home during the Chinese New Year, so I smiled and declined. There was no heating in the security room, and the other party put the only heating tool at my feet, muttering not to freeze the child, I was moved in my heart, and greeted him with a smile.
As he spoke, the door of the security room was pushed open from the outside, and a cold air blew in. I hurriedly wrapped Gu Xiao's coat tightly and brought it into my arms, and then I looked up, and after seeing the person who came, I was on the spot.
"Pei Shaobei, you, why are you here?"
Questions, surprises, surprises, fright, a series of emotions came in an instant, but I was stunned but asked the most unnutritious words.
"Come and pick you up!" Pei Shaobei looked calm, looked at me and Gu Xiao, took off his down jacket and leaned over to help me wrap Gu Xiao, then bent down and picked up the shopping bag on the ground, turned around and went out.
