136. The most white lie

"Midsummer, you go and sign for the courier." The old man at the door shouted at me, "Turn off the power when you leave." ”

"Got it." I was mopping the floor and waved at Lao Zhangtou, "Slow down." ”

In the past two years, I have been busy with work and rarely have time to go to the mall, so I often choose it online and send it directly to my place of work.

I sorted out the clothes and stuffed them into my bag, just as my dad was taking me home on his electric scooter from work.

As soon as I entered the house, the familiar smell of food entered my nose, and a small shadow jumped into my arms, "Mom, you're back." ”

I rubbed Xue Meng's hair, "What's wrong?" ”

"Grandma can't play Lego, you play with me." Mengmeng took my hand and walked up to his pile of toys, pouting and looking very unhappy: "You play with me for a while." ”

I smiled, "I'll go change my clothes first." ”

I went to the bedroom to change my clothes, and when I came out, my mom asked me about the clothes I had brought back, "The child has grown up so fast, and he has bought so many clothes." ”

"I always have to change it." I squatted on the ground to play with Xue Meng, and my mother asked me, "The young man in the next building asked you again a few days ago, can you take .......a look?"

"Mom!" I glanced at her complainingly, "Mengmeng is here." ”

Xue Meng was playing very attentively, and when he heard me mention his name, he raised his head and asked me, "Call me?" ”

I smiled faintly, "It's okay, you play yours." ”

The child's world is very simple, Xue Meng, who can be sent by a few toys, is happy all day, Xue Meng, a child who is a little calmer than ordinary children, does not love to cry or make trouble, and is a warm man.

Since we moved here, the pace of life has slowed down a lot, and naturally, we have started to enjoy this calm.

My dad taught calligraphy in an extracurricular class, the class time was very relaxed, he was also happy, teaching children is the happiest thing for him, my mom is at home full-time with the children, and I sell houses in a real estate agency.

Although the days were a little harder, it was very peaceful.

When we first moved here, we decided to buy a house, but in the end, we were afraid of revealing our whereabouts, so we discussed with the landlord that we should rent for 15 years, and the landlord also felt that the house still had room for appreciation under my persuasion, so he agreed to our request for the time being.

My father probably repaired the house, painted the walls, bought a few pieces of furniture, at that time my stomach could already be seen, just moved to avoid being talked about by the neighbors, my mother with super communication skills into the group of middle-aged and elderly women, casually told a lie, she said that we Xia Xia is a military wife, her husband is a soldier, the army management is strict, can only be visited by the military wife,

But it also made those people believe it to be true, and stopped talking about it.

I have nightmares every night, I always dream that there are countless guns pointed at me, I dream that my parents are disappointed in me, and every time I wake up, I always have a cold sweat.

My mom slept with me for more than a month and let me sleep alone when I was much more emotionally stable.

However, in the middle of the night, I still can't help but think about him.

Xue Zikun, are you okay?

But what does it have to do with me?

I touched my little belly with my hand, the child inside was the only proof that we had been together, and I still had the diamond ring he gave me before, the huge diamond was very dazzling, but I was upset to look at it, so I took it off and threw it into the drawer.

I know how powerful the people of the Xue family are, and I also know what I will face if I expose my residence, seeing that when it comes to the day of the prenatal checkup, I have to make a fake ID card, although the name is my name, but I changed the ID number.

The hospital audit here is not as strict as that of the hospital, and I was fooled to pass the test and successfully set up the file, and then my mother followed me to the prenatal examination, she witnessed the baby's heartbeat, the baby's first fetal movement, and also witnessed my entire process of becoming a mother.

The child is very well-behaved and honest, in the days of labor, my body is not so swollen, and I sleep well, but I often sit in a repetitive dream, and I take my child to run on the grassland, free........

When I woke up from the dream, I felt the wetness under my body, I knew that the water was broken, and I started contractions as soon as I packed up my things to go to the hospital, and my parents sent me to the hospital, and the doctor saw that I had opened four fingers and sent me directly to the delivery room.

I wanted to give birth directly, and after a long time of pain, the doctor said that the umbilical cord was wrapped around the neck for fear that the child would suffocate, and a caesarean section was necessary.

A needle of anesthetic was injected into the lumbar spine, and my lower body was unconscious, but I could still feel my stomach being torn apart layer by layer, and when I heard a loud cry, I knew that he had come to this world.

A tear fell from the corner of my eye, and the nurse said, "Midsummer, it's a boy, six pounds and two taels, you can take a look." ”

I glanced at the kid, his body and face were flushed, and I asked with some concern, "Why is it so red?" ”

"It's normal, I'll take a shower first."

The nurse came back quickly, put the child in the position of my heart to let me feel his existence, his small lump, quietly lying on top of me, I looked down and only saw the top of his head, his hair was soft, the hair color was a little yellow, I looked carefully, just the two spins on the head, just like Xue Zikun.

When I named it, I insisted on calling it Xue Meng, although my parents objected, but in the end they respected my meaning, after all, Xue Zikun is his father, although he can not accompany the child's growth, but he can't deny the fact that he is the child's father.

Xue Meng's sensibility started from the confinement, he slept when he was full, he didn't cry when he woke up, and it was also very trouble-free at night, my milk was very sufficient, enough for Xue Meng to eat.

My mother looked at Xue Meng and said, this is much more sensible than when I was a child.

If you don't raise children, you don't know the kindness of your parents.

Before I had children, I could still be willful with my parents, but after giving birth to Xue Meng, I realized how bastard and confused the things I did before, making my parents sad, and the thing I regretted the most in my life.

With the passage of time, Xue Meng gradually grew up, he has not been registered, it is too difficult to get a household registration in the imperial capital, and it is impossible for us to go back to our hometown.

In the end, I sent Xue Meng to a private kindergarten, although it was a little more expensive, but I heard that the reputation was not bad.

Xue Meng asked me, what about my father?

I said that Mengmeng's father was a soldier and he was on a mission.

Xue Meng said, does Dad have a gun? Will you beat the bad guys?

I said, yes.

Xue Meng said, will he come back to see me?

The sadness filled my heart, and I nodded, he would be back.

It wasn't the only lie I've ever told in my life, it's the most poignant and well-intentioned lie I've ever had in my life.

The first time I saw Xue Zikun on TV was an interview program, when he said to the audience that I hadn't seen him for a long time, my eyes were hot, and my tearful action was discovered by my mother, she looked at the people on the TV, and turned off the TV without saying a word.

My mother said, if you can't forget, don't deliberately forget, how tired.

I smiled helplessly, it was okay, the TV reminded me of the distance between me and him.

I have seen Xue Zikun countless times on TV, I can sing every song of him, and I have watched the video of his concert many times, but the one he wrote to me at the beginning was never sung again, he has won many movie awards, and the brands he endorses are all first-line international brands.

He also often appears in various public welfare activities, and there are also gossips about his negative news, and there are countless scandals.

He's good right now, he's in the limelight.

This is the life he likes, sought after by thousands of people, and it is dazzling.

He disappeared for three years, and in those three years, there was no shadow of him in front of the big screen, I doubted, he returned to the army? Went to South Korea? Or did you go back to Jiangzhou?

And three years later, he was reborn from the ashes.

He is the king of the stage himself, and he has the aura of a male protagonist on his body.

I'm still going to be moved, I'm going to be fascinated by his every move, and I know I'm still in love.

How much love there is, how much courage there is to give up.

My parents talked to me about Xue Zikun's problem, and I also made it clear what I mean now, we have come to this point, but we can't go back.

I won't be a moth to a fire, I'll cherish the precious plainness.

My parents naturally respected me, and I only felt very guilty when I faced Xue Meng.

I'm sorry, son, I brought you into this world, but I can't give you a happy family.

There are individual suitors around me, who say that I am married, and my mother also says that I am a military wife, and those who are always attentive are less than half, and there are also a few stalkers, and I basically don't pay attention to them.

My mother advised me to find another one while I was young, not for anything else, but to be a companion when I was old.

I'm very resistant to this, I have my parents and my son by my side, what else do I want?

Xue Meng is also very obedient in kindergarten, he is a child who does not like to make trouble, and he does not like to steal things from others, to be honest, Xue Meng is very sensible, very good at comforting people, compared with children of the same age, less arrogant and willful, very obedient.

This is completely different from his Xue Zikun.

The four of us are happy together, and one of the main reasons why I'm interested in selling houses is that the industry is very profitable.

Especially in recent years, when the housing prices in the imperial capital have risen so much, we basically have a commission of thousands of yuan for selling a house, when I first entered the industry, I was also a rookie, always facing the edge of elimination, and then I also let it go, sales this thing is not something anyone can do, stalking is not a magic weapon to win, I want to capture the hearts of customers, they want to buy, don't need me how to sell, they don't want to buy, how I sell useless.

Another important reason is that because the industry is very mobile, it will not insure employees, and naturally will not verify the information of personnel.

This is the most important thing that attracts me.

I am also a broker, a real estate agent.

In the past four years of work, I also have a small savings, while I want to do it when I am young, I always have to go out, I don't know what the future will look like, Mengmeng's hukou, my parents' pension money, I must save more while I am young, in case of emergency.

Recently, I talked about a big order, a customer wants to buy a villa, the early stage has been discussed, the customer is also ready to sign a contract, but because I am always on a business trip, the time is relatively tight, let me go to the hotel where she lives tonight to find her.

Frankly speaking, I have received this kind of invitation from customers many times, I am clean and self-conscious, and I also know that women have the conditions to take shortcuts, but that is not my style.

The client who asked me today is a woman, a Chinese American.

If it's a male client, I'm bound to find a male colleague to join me, and even if it's a female client, I'm wary.

When I arrived at the agreed hotel, the client asked me to go to her room to find her, and I kept an eye on it, fearing that something would happen, and said that I would ask my colleague to call me in ten minutes.

Under the leadership of the service staff, I went to the room where the customer lived, and after entering the door, the customer walked out of the bedroom, and the moment I saw her, the whole person was stunned, and she was also stunned, looking me up and down, "Midsummer?" ”

I was very embarrassed to stand there, this impeccable woman with exquisite makeup in front of me turned out to be Tang Yan's aunt!

The designer who scolded me loudly because I broke the catwalk skirt was the founder of a famous American fashion brand.

"It's the height of summer?" She asked me, I quickly reacted, there is no need to pretend to be in front of acquaintances, and there is no need for me to pretend to be the wrong person, I nodded: "Yes." ”

"I know about your breakup with Tang Yan, but this is not a good thing for you." She made a gesture of please, "Sit, coffee or tea?" ”

It seems that Tang Yan has already dealt with the breakup, I am very happy to look at Aunt Tang Yan, after all, I was so unable to get into her eyes at the beginning, "Thank you, no need." ”

She did her due diligence, and went straight to the topic: "oK, what about the contract." ”

I took out the contract and explained the key items in it from the table of contents page, she signed the corresponding part, and asked me some questions while signing, such as how long it takes to go through these procedures, the handover of the house's water and electricity properties, etc., I answered them one by one, and I was relieved when she signed it at the end.

At this time, my colleague called me, my firm was signing a contract, and she understood the code to prove that I was fine, and hung up after saying two words.

"I will send the money to your company account as soon as possible."

"Thank you for your cooperation, if nothing else, I'll go first."

I stood up to leave, but she stopped me, "Midsummer." ”

I stopped and looked at her politely, "Huh? ”

"I knew about the dress at the beginning, you were framed, why didn't you say it?"

"Sometimes explanations are futile, you think I'm not a professional model from the first time you see me, no matter how I explain it, you have that preconceived idea that sways your judgment, so what do I explain?" I paused, "And those things have passed, years. ”

"Okay." She stretched out her hand to shake hands with me, "I have something to say, you and Tang Yan have broken up, I hope you don't come back to disturb Tang Yan's life, after all, the distance between you is 108,000 miles." ”

This is also in my mind, I was a little worried that she would tell Tang Yan about meeting me, so it seems that I am thinking too much.

I smiled faintly, "That's what I mean, I'll go first, goodbye." ”

What happened back then has long been in the past, and I have passed the stage where everything will be black, and now I am more or less accustomed to the current life, and I have learned to compromise with life.

At that time, I was really too young and didn't understand anything, if it wasn't for Tang Yan to solve the siege at that time and say that I was his girlfriend, maybe I would have been scolded and deducted from my salary at that time, and I would have been removed from the modeling circle.....

I can't even think about those things that happened.

After saying that, I turned around and walked out of the room, and the contract in my hand was not so heavy, I just wanted to hand over this contract to the manager as soon as possible tomorrow morning, this commission is also quite considerable, and I can buy a lot of clothes and toys for Xue Meng when I save it.

The job of a room agent is the hardest, often getting up early in the morning, catching up with the late market, and it is very likely to be a waste of work, for me, what I need most now is money, I sell the house for my pocket, those things related to dreams, have long been buried together in South Korea.

And that person, I buried in my heart.

I didn't walk a few steps, seven or eight tall girls came on the opposite side, they were dressed up very beautifully, talking and laughing, I lowered my head and walked forward, I don't know who bumped into me, the contract in my hand was scattered all over the ground, the girl didn't apologize, she didn't speak, I picked it up one by one, frowning.

A strange man walked up to me, and he said to the group of girls next to me, "Whether you can soar or not depends on your respective abilities." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Xu."

For a while, there were voices of little girls thanking me, and I couldn't help but think, what's wrong with this world, and the unspoken rules have been played in such an open situation?

The man was very drunk, and a girl tried to help him, but he refused, and I picked up the contract and was about to leave, when a woman of about forty years old grabbed my arm, pushed me into the room, and urged, "Hurry up, what are you rubbing!" ”

"I'm just passing through." I pushed the woman away and was about to leave, and I was in the doorway, and just as I was about to take a step, I was stupid.

Xue Zikun stood in front of me in a bathrobe, holding red wine and smoking a cigarette, looking like a swinger brother!

We looked at each other like that for about ten seconds, and the forty-year-old woman stood beside Xue Zikun, with a smile on her face, "Xue Shao, this is the one that Mr. Xu personally selected for you is very clean, if it doesn't suit your taste, I will change it next time." ”
