impure

The fork in Li Mu's hand almost fell off.Yue Renge put down the cup in his hand and looked at his mother meaningfully.The other three people who couldn't understand Chinese still ate hard, but soon realized that something was wrong with the atmosphere. My father ate a piece of beef, chewing slowly like a horse, while observing the current situation blankly.

Not very good.

He didn't understand what was wrong with it either.All in all, at the end of the dinner, when we could continue to chat or carry out the traditional project of persuading the meal, everyone stopped early.

Li Mu took a cautious look at Yue Renge.

Neither Li Mu nor Yue Renge had experience in coming out to his family.In fact, they also discussed this issue before coming here, and this time they came back, and they didn't meet the parents seriously.According to Yue Renge, they have been busy for such a long period of time and haven't gone back for a long time. They still want to take Li Mu to go out to relax in the name of friends.

Here comes the point: friends.

There is a huge difference between a friend and a boyfriend.

Li Mu listens to Yue Renge, and if Yue Renge doesn't come out of the closet, he won't help kick the door of the closet.What's more, unprepared courage is reckless, and coming out of the closet without knowing the attitude of the parents will only make the situation out of control.

Li Mu is now in a dilemma.

The mother also noticed the embarrassment and laughed, "Oh, I just asked. Don't be embarrassed. It's okay, it's auntie who is talking too much."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Yue Renge smiled and said, "Mom, is it possible that you still want to introduce Jade? Jade is still young."

Chang Gong glanced at two faint eyes.

"Jade is still young, how about you?" Mother scolded with a smile, "How old are you? Why don't you bring a girl back? Xiao Li, don't imitate him, man, although career is important, after all, if you want to get married. Life is incomplete without a family.”

Hey, why does this sound so familiar?

Li Mu hadn't had time to figure out how familiar these words were, his lord father let out a full belch, as if a hole had been torn open in the tense air, and some pleasant wind was blowing in.

Jade laughed first, and the little long-term worker also laughed. Jeanne glanced at her husband helplessly, and patted his round belly. Yue Renge and Li Mu looked at each other and smiled unconsciously.

"Your parents are quite interesting." After the meal, Yue Renge distributed gifts to everyone.The father took the initiative to do the dishwashing job, and the mother took Jade to the neighbor's house to show off the special products Yue Renge brought from a foreign country. turn around.

The yard itself is not too big. A low wall is built on the side facing the street, and the back is directly connected to the vineyard.It was already dark, and it was hard to see clearly, but the undulating waves of the vineyard made Li Mu feel emotional.

"My mother is a second-generation immigrant. At that time, it was very popular to go abroad. Everyone thought it was easy to make money overseas, and those who were capable and those who were not wanted to go abroad."

"Mom and uncle traveled across the ocean with their grandparents, and the first place they came to was England. But the weather conditions were not very good, so they went south." The small lights in the garden slowly poured down from not far away, Yue Renge Half of his face was submerged in the gentle light.

This family history has been obliterated by dust, if it hadn't been mentioned by Yue Renge at this moment, I don't know when someone will be interested in asking about it.

Yes, this is just another history of blood and tears of an ordinary Chinese immigrant.Europe is not the Americas, and mature old capitalist countries have their own logic and shackles.But all immigrant families have experienced all kinds of bitterness and bitterness experienced by mainland immigrants who first came to France.

"My father was still working as a helper in the family's vineyard at that time, and he went to Paris with his sisters on weekends. He met my mother in the laundry in Paris."

Is the traditional way of love at first sight.Although the father-in-law now looks similar to the male protagonist's father in the idol drama, he is the male protagonist's father after all. When he was young, he was also the handsome male protagonist in another girl's dream.

with the language

Later, despite the opposition of her family, the Chinese girl resolutely followed the young man to the south—she didn’t even know what Burgundy was at that time—and she stayed there for so many years.

"My grandfather is actually very opposed to this marriage. He ran away from the Huadu countryside in order not to be a farmer, and then traveled across the ocean to come here. Unexpectedly, his daughter married a farmer."

Li Mu smiled, "Actually, there's nothing wrong with being a farmer."

"As far as the law allows, there is no bad job." Yue Renge said, "There are only people who can't do this job well."

Be it growing grapes or bartending, or even thousands of occupations in this world, it is thanks to those hardworking people that today's flowers are in full bloom.In this world, the most precious thing is perhaps that courage and persistence.

"I'm sleepy," Li Mu leaned on Yue Renge, slammed his head on his shoulder, and yawned, "When you got home, you talked more than before."

"Let me tell you about my family's family history. If our family becomes prosperous one day, what you enjoy now is VIP treatment." Yue Renge pinched Li Mu's nose, "Little devil, you have to cherish it."

Li Mu tried to bite him, but of course he failed.When the two of them returned to the room tiredly, they were stunned by coincidence.

The room is furnished, yes.It was cleaned very well, yes.Ready to move in, that's right.

But there are two rooms, separated at both ends of the corridor.

"Ah!" Yue Renge suddenly went crazy, "What the hell is this?!"

Let you pretend, keep pretending, you will sleep separately from your partner tonight.

Li Mu laughed immorally at Yue Renge's deflated look. "That's good too. You're tired today too. Go to bed early."

As soon as he said that, he was about to close the door.

"Hey! Do you have a conscience! Doesn't your heart ache?" Yue Renge slammed on Li Mu's door, like a dog blocked by his master, "Are you willing to let me sleep alone?"

"Why not?" Li Mu smiled, "I'm tired too, boss, let me take a vacation tonight."

Let me ask, what could be worse than the current situation?

Bringing her boyfriend home to play—although it was in the name of an ordinary friend—it turned out to be self-defeating, and the distance at hand became the ends of the world.

Yue Renge scratched the door aggrievedly.

Li Mu opened the door again, and poked out a fluffy head.Yue Renge weeping Mao Maotou quickly smiled brightly.Downstairs came the voices of Mother and Jade, who had just returned from a neighbor's house and had clearly had a night of publicity.

The conversation between the mother and daughter was vaguely heard downstairs, and the mother called "Leo" several times, but Yue Renge turned a deaf ear.

Li Mu smiled and said, "Go back to sleep soon?" If you don't sleep, your mother will talk to you.

Mr. Yue was wronged, Mr. Yue pouted pitifully.

Home is really a magical place, no matter how mature a person is, when he returns here, he will automatically become a child.Seeing Yue Renge's pitiful appearance, Li Mu couldn't help feeling distressed. "Okay." He couldn't help but raised his hand and touched Yue Renge's head, "It's so comfortable to sleep alone. We've been flying for so long, and we hardly rest at noon. Go back to sleep quickly."

If you let this guy in with a soft heart, I really don't know if I can hold it.

Li Mu really wanted to know at this moment, is the sound insulation in Yue Renge's room good?

The mother began to reprimand Jade downstairs, and the little girl didn't know what she was talking about.Yue Renge sniffled, his eyes seemed to be filled with tears. Hearing that someone was coming upstairs, Yue Renge grabbed Li Mu's collar and pecked hard on his forehead.

"You owe me," he said, "and I'll get it back."

As he said that, he quickly flashed into his room, Li Mu was stunned, Jade went upstairs scratching his hair, and happened to be looking at him in dismay.Li Mu smiled embarrassingly, the little girl's face turned red, and the freckles on her face were also blushed. She even forgot to speak English, hurriedly said "Bonnenuit", and fled.

Li Mu scratched his head, thought for a long time, and guessed that probably meant good night.

Long nights, unintentional sleep.

Li Mu was lying on the big bed in Yue Renge's house, looking at the small lamp with a unique shape hanging from the ceiling.The walls are covered with pale pink wallpaper with intricate patterns.Facing the end of the bed, there is a huge cabinet made of Hainan pear blossom wood. The dragon and phoenix are auspicious, and the mandarin ducks play in the water. The traditional decoration can be seen at a glance.

Li Mu felt surprised. Suddenly seeing such Chinese-style furniture in such a European-style family is like enjoying a Peking Opera in the Vienna Concert Hall.

Unable to fall asleep anyway, Li Mu simply got up and wandered around the room.A bunch of keys hang from the handle of the pear wood cabinet.It is also in a simple Chinese style, and there is even a Chinese knot tied on it.He opened the cabinet carefully, and even though there was no light, he felt that the room was full of light.

It was a full locker, full of beautiful cups of various colors.The upper layer is a glass, Li Mu recognized that it was used for drinking at dinner just now.There are many shapes of wine glasses, and there are significant differences between Burgundy glasses and Bordeaux glasses.Then there are various utensils like chemical equipment.With a long neck and a flat belly, Li Mu intuitively felt that it was related to wine, but he couldn't imagine what it would do.

All kinds of cups for drinking tea appeared on the stage, the white ones with gold rims, the blue ones with safflower dots, all upright and elegant.They once appeared in the afternoon tea party organized by the wives of the manor owner, and appeared on the table of the distinguished guests, accompanied by freshly baked small cakes, accompanied by laughter and laughter throughout the summer.

Li Mu's eyes slid down those beautiful cups, and he saw a few Chinese teacups and bowls.

Li Mu understood that these were probably Yue Renge's mother's dowry back then.

The mood of the wedding leave is preserved so well by a cabinet.Li Mu saw how unwilling and reluctant the stubborn father was, spending huge sums of money to buy such a beautiful cabinet for his daughter to marry.

What kind of ups and downs did the people who sent off their relatives go through, from the bustling Paris to this small central city?What was the original wedding like?Is the bride wearing a white wedding dress, or a red dress?

The cabinet was first placed in the couple's room, and then moved to the living room and guest room.Next to the tea cup and tea bowl, there is a new partner.

Now with such a posture, he appeared in front of Li Mu.

It was late at night, and the singing of insects in the countryside died down.Li Mu felt sleepy and yawned.He was startled when he suddenly heard a "boom" by the window, thinking it was his auditory hallucination.After a few seconds, there was another "boom", and Li Mu walked to the window and opened it.

Sure enough, Yue Renge stood in the courtyard in his pajamas, holding a stone in his hand, ready to continue smashing it.
