Chapter 181: It turned out to be a businesswoman
Thinking that Xinyue even forgot her brother who loved her the most, and forgot her friend who was halfway through the stars, there was no need to be sad.
Bidding farewell to the joy of remembering her again, Mo Yan returned to Qingfeng.
"Running out every day, my face is tanned." Brother Zheng sat at the workstation, took off his shoes and stepped on the chair, digging into the flesh of the drink cup while teasing the little junior sister.
"By the way, is the first draft of the room assigned to you out?"
Mo Yan was anxious: "Tomorrow!" Give it tomorrow! β
"You're big. Tomorrow is Saturday. β
"Then give it on Monday."
On the weekend, I can get in touch with Xixi, and by the way, I can recall my 3 years old.
On the way off work that day, Mo Yan went to a snack shop and bought two boxes of Peppa Pig's sandwich biscuits. When I got home, I washed my hands, changed into loose clothes, and knocked on the door next door.
It's been almost half a year since Xixi's mother moved over, and the number of times the two adults visit each other is only a handful, but Xixi, like an elf, often goes to Sister Yanyan's house to "Tao 1 treasure".
Counting it up, this is the first time Mo Yan has gone to Xixi's house.
After knocking on the door, my mother opened the door. There is no doubt that she first saw it in the cat's eyes and saw that it was Mo Yan, so she opened the door.
"I'm looking for him." Mo Yan shook the biscuit in his hand, "The company sent it." β
The little white lie is because she doesn't want to put pressure on her mother. After half a year of getting along, she and Mo Jielian had already discovered that this was a single mother with a poor life. Mo Jielian even guessed that she should be as miserable as herself, and met a ruthless ex-husband who would leave her home.
"Come in, please." The embarrassed mother smiled quietly.
Mo Yan stepped into this miniature one-and-a-half-room, and he inevitably sighed in his heart. She seemed to be able to smell the smell of Uncle Pan and Aunt Pan.
"It's messy at home, which makes you laugh." The embarrassed mother turned around and went to move the bench. Space is limited and there is no room for a sofa.
In fact, there are not many clothes scattered outside, probably because the space is too small, and it is inevitable that it will be messy as far as the eye can see.
"Where's that?"
"She's taking a shower, she's already washed, you sit down for a while, I'll help her get dressed."
Xixi's mother went to the bathroom, leaving Mo Yan alone to sit in the long space at the door.
This long space is a kitchen, a dining room, and a corridor. At the other end of the kitchen is the bathroom, and on the opposite side is a small bedroom facing north.
Although there are all kinds of goods in the house, it can be seen that they are all bargains that the landlord hastily bought.
There was a anxious urging sound from the bathroom, and after a while, Xi Xi, who was wearing a suspender dress, jumped out and ran towards Mo Yan with his arms open.
Mo Yan squatted down and hugged her, and couldn't help but kiss her on her tender and smooth face: "It's so fragrant!" β
With sharp eyes, I immediately saw the carton of biscuits of Peppy Pig on the stove, and it slid down from Mo Yan's body like a loach. She is more interested in the coloring pattern on the back of the carton than in eating cookies. Xixi's mother propped up a tablet fixed to the wall, and Mo Yan and Xixi began to paint on this countertop, which was not much bigger than a primary school student's desk.
"I came across a case at work where I needed to draw a room design for a 3-year-old child, so I thought of looking for a child and asked her what she liked." Mo Yan explained to his mother.
Compared with the unkempt appearance when she first moved in, she is obviously much more moisturized now. With her hair tied up behind her head and an army-green dress with long sleeves rolled up, her quiet and delicate atmosphere diffused. I really don't know what kind of blind man drove her out.
"I'm afraid she won't understand." The embarrassed mother replied with a smile.
"Can you help me, then?" Mo Yan answered smartly.
"Hmm......" the embarrassed mother smiled. When it comes to her daughter's preferences, she obviously talks more, "Little girls generally like red, especially pink, and when they are older, they like lilac." There is also a love of soft things, sparkling things, and playing with the house...... I can't say either, I can draw you the room before I was embarrassed. β
Mo Yan was overjoyed.
I didn't expect the room layout map of my mother's room to be wonderful, but I was more grateful for my mother's enthusiasm and honesty.
Xixi's mother held the pen and quickly drew a sketch, the proportions were reasonable, the stick figures were smart and spirited, and the marked handwriting was delicate and full of wind and bones, Mo Yan instantly remembered the saying "words are like their people".
"Did you learn to draw?" With just one glance, Mo Yan came to a conclusion.
Xixi's mother smiled slightly: "Yes." Ten years ago, after graduating from the painting major, I felt that it was impossible to draw a painting that would get ahead, so I took the postgraduate examination in art research. β
"That's the perfect life in my heart!" Mo Yan praised.
Perhaps it was her adoring eyes and enthusiastic praise that gave her embarrassed mother the strength to tell the story; Maybe it's because I've lived alone for too long, I'm lonely and afraid, and finally a harmless listener came, and my mother couldn't help but say a little more.
"yes, it should have been good. Unfortunately, I was too naΓ―ve at that time, and after I became pregnant, my family was afraid that I would be tired, so they persuaded me to sell the training institution and raise the baby with peace of mind. I did. β
There is no need to say it later, living alone with my daughter is the next word.
Mo Yan's mood then fell: "My parents divorced when I was 7 years old; However, my dad also cheated when I was 3 years old. β
Xixi's mother looked at Mo Yan with pity: "Is it also because you are a girl?" β
Mo Yan sighed and said in an old-fashioned tone: "It's all in this era, who is still obsessed with patriarchy." If a man wants to cheat, anything can be an excuse. β
The embarrassed mother was a little stunned and didn't speak again.
The embarrassed person on the side was indifferent to the conversation of the adults, her little hands moved happily on the coloring map, and there were words in her mouth: "Eliminate the little white dots, eliminate the little white dots...... Sure enough, the pattern she painted was dense and even.
"Mom, have you ever thought about reopening the children's art training class?"
The embarrassed mother's eyes suddenly brightened: "I've been dreaming about it!" Butβ" the light in her eyes dimmed, "there was no money left; Even if you can borrow money, you don't have time. I can't leave her alone at home, and I can't take her to tutor other children. β
Mo Yan regretted his impulsive questioning.
The atmosphere was somewhat obscure.
"My mother has half a day at home every day......" In order to make up for his impulsiveness, Mo Yan sacrificed his mother out.
Xixi's mother smiled gratefully: "No need, I'll hold on for a while." Now life is a little harder, but it is also quiet. When I go to kindergarten in the fall, I'll find a way to make money. It's going to be fine. β
