Reality is bullshit

The Duan family mansion is a very retro place from any direction, and there is no sense of disharmony at all with the combination of Chinese and Western styles.

Everything seems to be designed for this kind of decoration, every inch and every kind of decoration makes people feel pleasing to the eye.

Meng Xiaojia thought, this is probably the background of the big family.After all, the Duan family didn't have such a large family property because of Duan Rui's hard work alone.

Duan Hongchen led Meng Xiaojia into the hall.The sofa in the hall is European aristocratic style, which looks like an English gentleman's family in the [-]th century.Meng Xiaojia didn't have any special research on these things, but she remembered that she had seen a movie called "Pride and Prejudice", and some of the furniture in it probably looked like this.

As if he knew they were coming back, Duan Rui had already sat on the sofa.In front of him was a cup of tea that was still steaming, which seemed to indicate that he was waiting for someone.

As soon as Meng Xiaojia saw Duan Rui, he immediately nodded and said, "Hi, Mr. Duan, let me introduce myself first. My name is Meng Xiaojia. I'm 25 this year. I'm a dragon. I don't think you care about my zodiac sign. Then I'll just talk about my experience. "

Meng Xiaojia never thought that the old man of the Duan family had such a good upbringing. She told her experience from which class she went to in kindergarten and all the bad things she did. She kept talking for more than an hour, and Duan Rui didn't interrupt him. she.

When she finally finished speaking, she realized that Duan Rui had fallen asleep.

"..." Meng Xiaojia looked at Duan Hongchen innocently. Duan Hongchen was making kung fu tea. Seeing Meng Xiaojia looking at him, he immediately handed her a cup of tea to moisten her throat so that she could continue talking.

The butler came over and said, "Miss, it's almost time for dinner, do you want to stay for dinner?"

Duan Hongchen nodded and said, "I will stay with her."

The meaning is obvious, if Meng Xiaojia stays, she will stay, and if Meng Xiaojia leaves, she will also leave.

Duan Rui opened his eyes, his anger rose slowly and he said, "In your eyes, is there still a father like me?"

"Because I remember that you are my father, so I brought her back together." She has never been a cruel person. Duan Rui has raised her for so many years and given her so many things. Naturally, she cannot treat Duan Rui as nothing .

"If you still put me in your eyes, let her go immediately, I don't want to see her!"

"Then we'll see you next time." Duan Hongchen didn't want to confront Duan Rui head-on, so he got up and dragged Meng Xiaojia away.

Before he got to the door, he saw Duan Tianming coming in, seeing a pile of valuable calligraphy and paintings and antiques in front of him, he couldn't help but squint and say, "Hey, who sent so many good things today?"

"Hi, Tianming." Meng Xiaojia raised a hand to greet Duan Tianming.

"Mengmeng." Duan Tianming ran up excitedly when he saw Meng Xiaojia, and stretched out his hand to make a hug gesture, but when he met his elder sister's eyes, he immediately hugged himself.Emma, ​​if he really hugs her, will he still see the sun tomorrow?Facing an old man with a gloomy face at home every day is already frightening enough. If he adds a jealous elder sister to this, his life will really be difficult.

"Tianming, where did you go just now?"

"Ah, let me tell you, I just signed my dog ​​to go for a walk, but he refused to come in after he ran out." Duan Tianming violently dragged a blue-eyed husky in.

"..." Meng Xiaojia said, Duan Tianming, you are too cruel to your pets, aren't you?

"It's afraid of Xiaohong, right?" Duan Hongchen briefly answered and explained the reason.

"Little Red?"

"It's the Tibetan mastiff that I raise." Duan Tianming quickly explained Meng Xiaojia's question.

Nima, Tibetan mastiff, that is a Tibetan mastiff!It's called Xiaohong?How can I look at such a cute name in the future?

Thinking of this, Meng Xiaojia glanced at the husky lying on the ground pretending to be dead, and suddenly felt that the world is still beautiful, after all, there are such big and two things.

So Meng Xiaojia started playing with the husky, and the husky, who was still sick just now, jumped up and down.

Duan Tianming said that as the dog's owner, he was deeply hurt by the dog's attitude of completely denying its owner.

Duan Hongchen broke the secret with one word: "The two are together."

As the real head of the family—Duan Rui, he has been ignored for a long time, so he coughed twice, as if reminding Duan Hongchen, didn't you just say you were leaving?

As if to be against Mr. Duan, Duan Tianming said: "Mengmeng, can you stay for lunch? Our chef's craftsmanship is absolutely top-notch, at the level of a five-star chef, and you can also cook with my Xiaomeng." eat."

Meng Xiaojia poked the dog's head with a finger and said, "Why is your dog named Xiaomeng?"

"Hahaha." Duan Tianming hid it with a dry laugh, so he wouldn't tell Meng Xiaojia that it was because the dog made him feel the same as Meng Xiaojia.

Meng Xiaojia was not obsessed with the answer at all, and immediately agreed to stay when he heard that there was something delicious.

"I am the head of the family." Duan Rui poked the ground with a cane behind him and made some noises before he spoke.

Mengmeng immediately ran over to help Duan Rui and said: "Head of the family, go to the dining table to prepare the food first, and the food will be here soon. By the way, I can help you order what you want to eat, or what do you want to drink? I will bring 82-year-old red wine."

Old man Duan didn't speak, but he didn't shake off Meng Xiaojia's hand either.

Meng Xiaojia continued: "I also brought Moutai, which has been treasured for more than 100 years."

Mr. Duan finally started to walk slowly with Meng Xiaojia's support.

Meng Xiaojia was laughing like a fishy cat.

Actually, she didn't have any money to buy red wine at all. Although Duan Hongchen never restricted her money, Meng Xiaojia was a stingy type, how could she spend money to buy red wine by herself?The other one is, maybe she really had a brain twitch and went to buy red wine that day, so she didn't know what red wine was really good, and it was a waste of money.

So of course Meng Xiaojia didn't buy these things, but she took them.Duan Hongchen's collection is much larger than here. If you take a bottle of baijiu, you will have at least 50 years of collection!If she had known that the old man could do it with two bottles of wine, she would not have let Duan Hongchen bring so many antiques. You must know how expensive these antiques are!

The Duan family's dining table was not as long as expected, it was only five meters short.

But five meters fall!If you want to pick a dish, there is no game without gibbon genes!

Seeing the dazzling array of dishes slowly being put on the table, Meng Xiaojia immediately became fascinated.

Then, after a table of food was served, Meng Xiaojia saw a little girl serving food just now, one standing next to Duan Rui and Duan Tianming, the other standing next to Meng Xiaojia and Duan Hongchen, and then began to help them add food.

Nima, please have a lower limit for showing off your wealth.This is to give me a warning, tell me that this is not the environment where I live at all, and let me return to the original place of production?No, no return once sold!

So Meng Xiaojia didn't use the little girl beside her at all, and started to walk around a five-meter-long table with a bowl by herself.Nima, in this situation, eating a meal is equivalent to a marathon, do I still want to eat?It's exhausted before I'm full!

But the rare Duan Rui didn't say anything, just sat quietly by the side.In fact, Duan Rui knew that he was already at this age. When he was young, he worked so hard that he fell into the root of the disease and often had no appetite for anything.In fact, he hasn't eaten a decent meal for a long time, and sometimes he can only ask the doctor to give him some glucose.

Meng Xiaojia still walked to various dishes actively, and praised the chef's craftsmanship in various ways, looking so delicious that she wanted to eat the dishes together.

Her rhythm is like this: first, she walks to a dish that looks very good, admires the color of the dish, smells the aroma of the dish, and says in a voice that can hear her drooling. "Such a fragrant taste must be extraordinary." Then, he picked up a little bit of food with chopsticks and tasted it, and then praised the dish vigorously, praising the chef for how skillful he was to make such a delicious dish, even the royal chef in the palace It may not be possible to have this skill, and if she follows her, she will pick up a big mouthful—about one-third of the dish—and stuff it into her mouth, quickly destroy the dish in the bowl at a speed similar to that of a hungry tiger, and then jump to In front of the next dish.

Although the chefs are all five-star chefs, they are hired by others after all, and it is rare to hear someone praise their cooking skills like this, so they all sneaked to the side of the restaurant to eavesdrop on Meng Xiaojia's cooking, and looked at themselves with a full face. The expression of someone finally appreciating what they made.After all, they have been cooking here for so many years, and the owner eats very little, which makes them almost doubt the world, but Meng Xiaojia appeared when they were about to despair, and she was full of brilliance like a savior!

Duan Tianming was originally informal. Seeing Meng Xiaojia eating like this, he was afraid that Meng Xiaojia would eat all of them by himself, so he secretly competed with Meng Xiaojia at twice his usual speed. He was afraid that there would be dozens of dishes here. Not enough to eat.

Duan Hongchen has long been used to Meng Xiaojia's appearance, calmly chewing and eating slowly.

And the saddest one was the old man of the Duan family.He really couldn't eat anything at first, but later he wanted to impress Meng Xiaojia, but then seeing Meng Xiaojia eating like this, he suddenly felt that his stomach was empty, his stomach was full of acid, and the constant secretion of saliva made him keep swallowing.

But Nima, why would someone think so much about eating?Then, the old man finally moved the food on his table.

Duan Hongchen had noticed Duan Rui's situation a long time ago, and at this time he just smiled lightly, with an expression that he had expected long ago.

In fact, at Yan Junwang's wedding, Duan Rui had already softened his heart since Meng Xiaojia rushed forward to take the initiative for himself, but he was of the older generation after all, and he always had a big problem in his heart.Regarding this point, Duan Hongchen was basically understandable.

That's why she spared no expense to buy so many things today, and even brought two bottles of treasured wine to Duan Rui.Seeing Duan Rui's reaction, she knew that the matter had been successful, and as for the remaining two or three points, she was sure to get all of them.

Meng Xiaojia was eating by herself, but when she saw Duan Rui started to move her chopsticks, she immediately prepared to serve Duan Rui some food.

Duan Tianming said from the side: "Mengmeng, you need to use serving chopsticks."

Meng Xiaojia finds it troublesome, but considering that she still has to beg for her daughter, it's better to let the other party do this kind of thing.

So Meng Xiaojia picked up the serving chopsticks, licked the food for Duan Rui, and said while licking: "This is delicious, it is really delicious, I will never lie to you, if you think I am wrong, you will punish me for eating One dish."

While repeating these words, Meng Xiaojia added more dishes to Duan Rui until Duan Rui's plate could no longer hold so many dishes.

Looking at Meng Xiaojia's expression of wishing you to say that it's not delicious, so that I can eat all these dishes openly, Duan Rui felt that he absolutely couldn't say such a thing.

So, Duan Rui, who usually eats very little, ate up the pile of dishes in front of him for the first time.

The housekeeper smiled from ear to ear. If I had known that I thought Miss Huobao so much, I would definitely let her come to the house as a guest more often, and the master could also eat more, so as not to be in such poor health.

Duan Tianming was stunned at the side, what the hell, Mengmeng, you have superpowers, right?Normally, whenever I ask my dad to eat a little more, he gets upset and turns against me, but you actually made him eat so much, and the eggs he usually hates the most!

After being stunned, Duan Tianming had the expression of tt. Wasn't he really father's own?It's okay for the father to treat him differently from his elder sister, but why is there such a big gap between him and a stranger?Do you want people to live?

So Duan Tianming suddenly lost his appetite - after he finished three bowls of rice.

Meng Xiaojia didn't give Duan Rui too much food. She knew that the digestive system of the old man was not as good as that of the young, so she couldn't eat so much, so she controlled the amount very much.

There is no way, since he wants to please his future father-in-law, it is natural to use more snacks.

After Duan Rui finished his meal, he said to Meng Xiaojia, "Girl, help me to the study."

"Oh." Meng Xiaojia looked at the food in her bowl with some pity, so she reluctantly put it down and went to help Duan Rui go to the study.

Duan Tianming secretly said to Duan Hongchen from the side: "Sister, do you think our father agrees with you to be with Meng Xiaojia?"

Duan Hongchen didn't speak.

Duan Tianming continued: "Sister, don't worry, after all, I have also stayed in the United States for so many years, my mind is very open, everyone has the freedom to fall in love, not to mention Mengmeng is really a very good girl, If it were me, I would like her too."

So the sad Duan Tianming once again received a sharp eye from his elder sister.Let us observe 0.3 seconds of silence for this sad son and brother.

But upstairs in the study room, the two people who were supposed to be at war with each other were very calm at the moment, as calm as father, daughter, or friends.

As soon as Duan Rui came, he said to Meng Xiaojia: "I saw a silver mask on your body, it looks like an antique, is it for me?"

Meng Xiaojia said apologetically: "This silver mask has a special meaning to me. I can give you anything from me, only this is not allowed." She just thought about it for a while, and then decided to tell Duan Rui one thing: "This silver mask was worn by the princess a long time ago to prevent her soldiers from recognizing her when she went to the battlefield. The whole area is the whole beautiful youth. The princess gave everything to her country and her people, but when the time comes In the end, the princess couldn't keep her beloved, and she suffered a lifetime after all. They are not a story to me, but a real thing, and this silver mask is a very important thing between them , so I cannot give you."

Duan Rui was very angry after hearing this: "Hmph, although the old man is old, he is still not fainted. I know what you are here for. I advise you not to mess with me. Otherwise, I have the ability to keep you from seeing the world of mortals for the rest of your life."

"If I really give it to you, Hongchen will never want to see me for the rest of his life." Meng Xiaojia was careless, and he didn't want to stand at all when he was full, and felt tired after standing for a few minutes.Master Duan didn't say to let her sit down, but he didn't say not to let her sit down either?So Meng Xiaojia just found a chair and sat down.

Duan Rui sighed, he is old after all now, and often he does not take advantage of fighting against young people at all.He asked: "Tell me, what do you want before you give up the world of mortals."

"No matter what I ask for?" Meng Xiaojia asked.

"As long as I can do it, no matter what the request is." Duan Rui took a step back.He is used to being a master in the mall, this is the first time someone made him regress like this, part of the reason is naturally because of Duan Hongchen, but part of the reason is probably because this girl has a kind of stupidity, she looks very much like his deceased wife.

Meng Xiaojia said: "The ancients said: the mountains have no tombs, and the heaven and the earth are united. I don't ask for so much, as long as the mountains have no tombs."

Duan Rui slapped the table angrily and said, "You are toasting and not eating fine wine."

Meng Xiaojia blinked, looked at Duan Rui innocently and said, "I told you that I don't drink well, so I don't drink toasts or fines."

"You!" Duan Rui puffed up, and then let it out suddenly.

Because Meng Xiaojia had already leaned in front of him, and said with a sincere face: "There was a story about the Yugong who moved the mountains and praised his father for chasing the sun and Jingwei for reclamation of the sea. What the ancients can do, you can naturally do, because you have more knowledge than them. More financial resources, you have to believe that as long as you want to do it, you can do it!" Meng Xiaojia tried her best to encourage Duan Rui, so that Duan Rui made up his mind to move mountains.

"You don't want me to agree to let Hong Chen go with you!" Duan Rui let go.

"Then it's the same for me to go with Hong Chen, so you don't have to be polite with me, and you will treat yourself as if you have an extra goddaughter in the family."

"You are such a goddamn daughter, I can't bear it."

"Then don't lose weight. You should eat more and gain weight to be in better health. You won't be so grumpy and get angry at will."

Looking at Meng Xiaojia's expression of "I'm really doing your best", Duan Rui always felt that he couldn't even get angry.

Meng Xiaojia walked behind Duan Rui slowly, beat his back and squeezed his shoulders, and showed great hospitality.

Seeing that Duan Rui had closed his eyes comfortably, Meng Xiaojia said very seriously: "Actually, I know you have many things to worry about, but I really like Duan Hongchen, and I hope you can agree to let us be together."

Such a sentence made Duan Rui tremble again.Originally, he thought he was ready, but sometimes it was much more difficult in reality than in thought. When Meng Xiaojia proposed to be with Duan Hongchen, Duan Rui felt his breath start to roll again.

"Why are you so shameless? Hong Chen is a girl, it's a girl! You two won't have any results together!" Duan Rui was so angry that his body was shaking.Two women, if word of this gets out, where will the face of his Duan family and Duan Rui be put?

"We didn't intend to ask for fruit. We just feel happy when we are together. Haven't you ever loved? Don't you think that you can abandon everything for your lover? Sometimes life depends on what you love. People are so worthless in front of people. But I will definitely cherish my life for Hongchen, because I know that she doesn't want to see me in trouble, and I also know that if one day I really leave Hongchen, she will go crazy. You I don’t want you to lose such a good daughter either, do you?”

"Hmph, she is my daughter, I don't agree with her being with you, so you should never be with her!"

"We're already together." Meng Xiaojia thought for a while, and decided that it's better not to provoke the old man any more.

"You are together temporarily. She is my daughter. She must be with whoever I want her to be with!"

"Do you want your daughter to be a commercial bargaining chip? Do you also want to choose a political marriage for Hongchen, just like Yan Junwang and Gong Zhu? I always thought you were a very great father, but I didn't expect you to be such a vulgar one People! Selfishness, you can abandon your daughter for the sake of profit!" Meng Xiaojia became more and more excited as she spoke, her eyes were slightly red, and there was something swimming in her body, which seemed to be telling her to destroy, destroy this place quickly Let him know how sad it would be to lose his baby!

But reason stopped Meng Xiaojia, she did not take any action, because Duan Hongchen just walked in at this time.

"I think there is one thing that I must tell you." After speaking, Duan Hongchen gave Duan Rui all the information in his hand, and said, "You also know that I am actually not your biological daughter."

Hearing such a sentence, Duan Rui couldn't help but raised his head in surprise, looking at his daughter as if looking at a stranger or a business opponent.He originally thought that he would keep this incident in his grave, but he was unexpectedly discovered by Duan Hongchen.

"How did you know?"

"I've known it from the beginning. But I'm still willing to regard you as my father, because you brought me up, and I dare not or forget these things."

"You know everything, you know everything." Duan Rui's original confident tone when he was talking to Meng Xiaojia suddenly disappeared, as if he was shocked by Duan Hongchen's answer.

"Father, a teacher for one day and a father for life, you are my teacher and my father, so no matter what happens, you will be my father, my father forever."

Duan Rui is a person who has suppressed his feelings for a long time. Since his wife passed away, he has rarely expressed his feelings to others. He has also put his focus on work, and his child, Duan Hongchen, is also a very cold person. , Naturally, he will not express his feelings at will, and Duan Tianming has not been around for a long time.So after being in such an environment for a long time, Duan Rui almost thought that he would not lose his temper emotionally.

But he actually heard his daughter's words, the words were plain, but they carried a lot of weight, hitting Duan Rui's emotional fortress that was as deep as a city wall.

"You are Hongchen's father, and naturally you are also my father. Father, please accept my apprentice's respect." Meng Xiaojia made a deep bow to Duan Rui after speaking.

Duan Rui held back for a while, and finally couldn't hold back and said, "It's a daughter, not a son."

Meng Xiaojia immediately excitedly said: "So you admit it? Dad!"

"..." Duan Rui said that he had been catching eagles all his life, but he never imagined that one day he would be pecked in the eyes by a bird that didn't even grow a feather!

Duan Hongchen said: "If you still insist on letting me leave, then I will leave and will not take any money from the family."

Duan Rui sighed.If it was his son who said this sentence to him today, maybe he would not regress, but it was his daughter who said this sentence to him today, then everything would be different.

"I hope for your approval because I respect you, because Meng Xiaojia is already my destined person in this life. I think you and your mother also loved you so much that you decided to leave the family, right?"

When Duan Rui was young, he also had a youthful and frivolous rebellious life. In order to be with his lover from a commoner family who his family looked down on at all, he chose to elope with his lover.But soon after they left, someone took them back. The reason was that he was already the only son of the Duan family, and the Duan family business must be inherited by him, and the family had no choice but to let the only heir come back. Agreed to a relationship between the two.

Sometimes, everything is like a spiral ladder, and you don't know how long you have walked, and when something that happened before will appear.

Duan Rui is almost certain that with Duan Hongchen's personality and temper, she can really do these things, and she can live a very good life without a penny from the family.

"But you are both women."

Hearing that Duan Rui seemed to let go, Meng Xiaojia immediately said: "As long as you agree to the two of us being together, we will be responsible for showing you a happy life."

Duan Hongchen smiled at the side, took Meng Xiaojia's hand, and clasped his fingers tightly, as if he had made up his mind not to be separated for the rest of his life.

Looking at the group of young people in front of him, Duan Rui suddenly felt that he was old, just like the older generation who prevented him from being with the person he loves the most. They even prevented his daughter from finding happiness for his own reasons.It should be their time now, so why do I have to do so many unnecessary things?

He knew there were things he couldn't stop.Although they said they hoped that they would agree, in fact it would be the same if they did not agree. They were just afraid that they would always have a knot in their hearts, right?

Thinking of this, Duan Rui seemed to suddenly think about it.He sighed hard, letting out all his frustrations.Children and grandchildren have their own blessings, why should they interfere more.

"I want to talk to your family." Duan Rui said to Meng Xiaojia.

"Oh, what are you talking about? I'll call my mother and call you."

"..."

Duan Hongchen said: "I will tell you, and thank you."

"Huh?" What did they say?Where did it say that we agreed to be together?Why do I not understand at all?

Duan Hongchen patted Meng Xiaojia's head fondly, and said, "Why don't you call someone?"

"Dad!" Meng Xiaojia immediately sweetly called the doctor to Duan Rui, who was so shocked that Duan Rui could hardly sit still.

Duan Rui had to admit that even though he had raised Duan Hongchen for so many years, he had never seen Duan Hongchen's expression of happiness that could not be concealed.

Meng Xiaojia still didn't believe it until she got in the car, why did she agree so easily?She thought that being scolded by Duan Rui was light, maybe she was beaten out with a stick.But now it was so easy to agree, it really made Meng Xiaojia feel like she was still dreaming.

"By the way, can you tell me, what did my father say that made us agree to be together?" Meng Xiaojia couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he thought.

Duan Hongchen smiled slightly, took Meng Xiaojia's hand and said, "Because you are the cutest person in the world."

Because you can do things that others dare not do, you dare to choose to protect me at the moment of life and death, you let him see what is bravery, what is true love, what is fearlessness, what is youth, and these are what he hopes for but not within reach.

Because your courage to move forward regardless of the consequences touched the past of his youth and touched his memories. It was you who made him feel that he had been so brave before, but now he is no longer brave. It is you who made him feel that he has always been persistent. Maybe it's all wrong.

Because you are always so naive, so kind, and think about the good of the people around you so much, you ate so much food yourself to make him eat more, just to make him eat more happily.These were not without emotion for him.

Duan Hongchen knew that Duan Rui had been in a high position for too long, and the people around him might be following suit because of his status and money, but no one really cared about his own body.Duan Hongchen also knew that Duan Rui would definitely be touched by Meng Xiaojia.But she wasn't going to tell Meng Xiaojia about this.

"I think he is actually quite lonely, and I will come back to accompany him often when I have time in the future."

"Wang!"

Meng Xiaojia turned around in horror, and saw a husky sitting behind it, its branches trembling due to the wind.

"When the hell was this guy in the car?"

Duan Hongchen said: "It was Duan Tianming who said that since he was carrying it recently, no matter where he went, he would be surrounded by beautiful women, and he was very upset."

"Isn't it good to be surrounded by beautiful women?"

"He's going on a date tomorrow."

"..." Meng Xiaojia knew that her master disliked this husky, so she threw it to her elder sister.Who made this husky so stupid [beep] that he dared not approach the Tibetan mastiff so far away?

Meng Xiaojia looked at the mask in her hand, and suddenly remembered to ask Duan Hongchen a question.

"Are you Duan Hongchen or Fei?"

"I am Fei, and I am also Duan Hongchen."

"Did you come from time-traveling, or did you time-traveling?"

"I don't know either. Zhuang Zhou Mengdie or Die Meng Zhuang Zhou?" Duan Hongchen said: "In my memory, I was Fei first, then Duan Hongchen. I became Duan Hongchen in order to find someone. Now that The person has been found, as long as I am with that person, I don't care what I am anymore."

"If Boss Duan is not your father, then where is your biological father?"

"Do you really want to know?" Duan Hongchen turned to look at Meng Xiaojia.

"kindness."

"Okay, I'll tell you slowly when I get home."
