Chapter 30 The so-called celibacy
"Grandma, my mother is good-looking, or is Aunt Bai good-looking?" I chatted with my grandmother.
"In terms of looks, no! In terms of temperament, your mother, it's good to do anything, but your mouth is not good. What about this white jasmine, she has a good mouth and coaxes your dad around! Although grandma can't remember what happened in front of her, she can't forget these things that have long been a foregone conclusion.
I smiled and teased her, "It's just that they are not as beautiful, virtuous, and loved as Grandma when she was young!" ”
"Just you can talk! Found a boyfriend? ”
"No, but I found a good friend to keep me company." I can't help but laugh at the thought of Garvey, he is my good friend.
"That's good, so as not to be bored alone, don't be like me, no one cares about it, no one wants to live it." Grandma said bitterly.
"What! Who is ignored and ignored? I miss you to death! ”
"You miss me?! Then why don't you come to see me when you're old? "Grandma is coquettish like a little girl.
"Isn't your granddaughter busy? When I make a lot of money and buy a big house, I will take my grandmother to my house, you will accompany me, I will accompany you, and soak together every day, okay? I took my grandmother's hand and kissed it.
"Words count! That's pretty much it, you're either an outsider, or Xiaoxue. ”
"Count! Count! Deal! I was amused by her again, it turned out that my grandmother had only passed the "review" of me until this moment, and finally recognized me completely, why are the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease so cute?!
This home is a villa located in the far suburbs of Beijing, because my dad is the only son of my grandparents, and he has an older sister who settled abroad very early, so our family has always lived together as a big family. We used to live in the city, but after my dad and my mom divorced, my mom took my brother to continue to live in the city, and my dad and Bai Jasmine got married and bought this big house in the suburbs, and our whole family moved here.
But I felt that I couldn't stay anywhere, and I felt like a guest wherever I lived, so as soon as I had the opportunity to earn money, I moved out early and lived on my own.
Except for my grandmother, everyone else thinks that moving out is something that makes everyone comfortable.
I pushed my grandmother's wheelchair to the restaurant to eat.
Bai Jasmine is very good at partying, and often invites friends in the circle to party at home, in her words, one is to save money, and the other is to save popularity, presumably this "popularity" is what Jia Wei said about connections.
Her circle is basically full of actors, directors, and producers, and she doesn't just have parties at home, but also often goes to other people's parties, I remember she once said to Eve that actresses of her age mainly rely on the circle to take on the role.
White Jasmine rarely cooks, usually a nanny cooks, and when you invite guests, you will find an outside chef to come to the door. This time, three more cooks were invited to cook, and I heard that one of them was the descendant of Wanjia cuisine, and his grandfather was a cook in the royal dining room. The other two chefs were his assistants.
"Wan Yilin, haven't you heard of it? You've always heard of Wanjiacai, right? Wanjia cuisine is Wan Yilin's private restaurant, which is now the most famous palace restaurant in the capital, making one table of dishes a day, and ordering meals three months in advance. Chef Wan is not something that can be invited by money, if it weren't for Eve's friends who invited us, how could we have enjoyed this royal dish at home! White Jasmine introduced today's recipe with a lot of words.
"What a friend of Eve! Is it a boyfriend? A grandmother asked.
"Where does she have a boyfriend, she's still so young!" My dad didn't know when he came in, but just in time for this scene, he took over and said.
White Jasmine immediately took the cake and sat quietly beside him.
"Eve is still in school, so focus on her studies and don't always get involved in those relationships." My dad continued, not even looking at me.
"20 years old is not too young, how can a beautiful girl in this society not have suitors? My granddaughter is only 15 years old and has a boyfriend! It's not like we were then! ”
"No, he's just a male friend he's not known for long. Mainly for my grandfather's 70th birthday, I gave up my face and begged this friend for many days to find Chef Wan, otherwise Chef Wan's own business would not be able to do, how could he have the effort to come to our house?! Eve stood coquettishly beside her grandfather, patting her shoulder and rubbing her back.
"Well, the doll has merit this time!" Grandpa said happily that the one he loved the most was Eve, and he always called her a doll affectionately.
"Eve's beautiful face is born to be an actor, so you don't need to be in a hurry to find a boyfriend, and you will naturally become a heartthrob when you make a few films." A grandmother said.
"Thank you grandma for the compliment, I'm really going to play a play soon!"
"What? What's the play? How do you take classes? White Jasmine asked.
"It's a TV movie, one of the small characters, who doesn't delay class, and my classmates are together."
"What are you playing?"
"I played a young actor who wanted to be famous, but was forced by his family to marry a rich man. It's the second female number! By the way, do you know who the male number one is? ”
"Who? How would we know?! ”
"You all know each other, but it's been a long time since you've seen each other!" Eve said mysteriously
"Don't sell it!" White Jasmine said.
"The male number one is called Man Tianhao, and he is Uncle Man's second son! Grandpa, do you remember? Eve's words surprised me.
Why did Man Tianhao play the male lead again?
"I remember, it's Man Junshan's son, they have been abroad with their family for so many years, why is his son back to film now?" My grandfather asked.
"Man Tianhao has already returned to China to do the clothing business, and he is doing well! This kid is very good, he is in business, modeling, and acting, and he has been the smartest since he was a child! My dad replied to my grandfather's words.
"And he's so handsome! When he came to our school to pick up actors, the female classmates all looked at him with starry eyes, and the male classmates all followed his example, and everywhere he went, they were all fans! Eve said excitedly.
"Did he pick you?"
"Yes! He was also the one who introduced Chef Wan! Eve said.
"This boy, do you have a crush on our Eve?" A grandfather said.
"Eve, is there such a thing?" My dad asked with a frown.
Eve's face turned red, and she said nervously, "No, no, at most it's just a little interesting, don't talk nonsense!" ”
"Doll, invite him to the house one day, and I will meet him." My grandfather said briefly.
"People are very busy, and I'm afraid it's about a hundred times more difficult to invite him than to invite Chef Wan......" Eve said even more embarrassed.
"Alright! Let's eat first! White Jasmine interrupted this topic that embarrassed Eve, and began to introduce the dishes one by one, and then tasted them one after another......
I really didn't have the heart to eat it.
Man Tianhao actually had a little bit of meaning to Eve!
While falling in love with Yang Yali, he is also interesting to Eve, and I don't know how much it means to anyone! This person is such a flowery scumbag!
Garvey also speculated that he was very picky about women and didn't have a girlfriend he liked very much, which was completely wrong! He's everyone's favorite love saint!
"Why did Xia Xue lose weight like this?" My dad finally saw me.
"I'm losing weight." I say.
"Xia Xue has lost weight and is so beautiful!" My grandma said.
My dad looked at me again, frowned and shook his head and said, "Just to shoot those commercials?" Isn't it good to be the old man? Focus on what you specialize in, don't be distracted. ”
I chewed silently without knowing the taste, my heart was full of taste, and I didn't want to say a word.
"Come, Xia Xue and I wish our dearest grandfather a happy 70th birthday! Blessings such as the East China Sea, Shoubi Nanshan! Eve raised her glass to help me out, and gave me a look.
I quickly raised my glass and said awkwardly, "Happy birthday to Grandpa!" Cheers! ”
I drank the wine from the goblet.
I poured some more and toasted to the grandma next to me, and toasted to a few other grandpas and grandmothers......
Eve is playing the piano for everyone
I'm already slightly drunk.
Remembering Garvey's words, don't use alcohol to relieve your worries......
I slipped over to the balcony and sat down, the breeze blowing and the wine fading.
"Are your mom and your brother okay?" At some point, my dad came over and asked.
"I don't know." I say.
"You're looking more and more like your mom."
"Grandma said the same."
"If you have the time to go see them for me." My dad continued.
"Why don't you go and see for yourself?" I say.
"Your mother, she still has a grudge against me, after so many years, she just can't get by." My dad whispered.
"Yes, my mother really can't think about it, everyone is living happily, and she wants to live in resentment." Between my mom and my dad, I almost didn't think about siding with my mom.
"Who's happy? Me? Xiaoxue, don't talk to me like that, I'm your dad! What happened between your mother and me, you don't understand, I'm very worried about your brother now, after all, he is my only son, and today your grandfather is still talking about him, it's time to marry a wife and have children, I don't know what's going on. ”
My mother and my brother have almost cut off all contact with my father's family, and today my grandfather celebrates his birthday, thinking of my brother's eldest grandson.
"Okay, I'll go see them when I have time." I promised him.
"Let's stay at home tonight."
"No, I'll go back."
"I finally came back once, and I spent more time with my grandmother......"
My dad asked me to stay with my grandmother, so I had to stay.
That night we slept in Eve's big bed, and we talked about our hearts as we did when we were children.
Eve has always been an energetic young and beautiful girl, and there are always male classmates around her, how this boy is, how that boy is, and her thoughts have been this kind of topic for many years.
This time, she didn't say any more male classmates, and she was alone all night - full of sky.
How is Man Tianhao's acting skills......
How is Mantian Hao dressing......
What did Man Tianhao say to her......
Completely fanned by the sky full of Haoquan.
"I heard that Man Tianhao has a girlfriend." I reminded her.
"Nothing! Man Tianhao said that he was a celibate. Eve believed him.
"What did he tell you?"
"No, and my classmate was there, and when someone asked him if he had a girlfriend, he said that."
"Having a girlfriend, and being a celibate, is not a contradiction. Even if you don't get married in your life, you can have a lot of girlfriends. ”
I don't know how many women are fascinated by him, but he actually says that he is a celibate?!
