Chapter 126 Depressed
Lu Miao thought that she might be suffering from the aftereffects of taking the train.
I always felt vaguely that something was not right.
I always feel tired, powerless and without any motivation when it comes to taking action.
I want to lie down and not move...
When he went back to his room at night and lay down, Lu Miao put one hand on the side of his head and lay there in a daze.
“Knock knock—”
There was a sudden knock on the door.
Lu Miao turned around, and Tang Mei's voice came right after.
"Xiaobao, can your aunt come in?"
"……Can."
Tang Mei pushed the door open and came in, slowly sitting down beside the bed.
Under the dim light of the small desk lamp, her face looked particularly gentle.
"Xiaobao."
She just called the name and didn't say anything.
Lu Miao didn't say anything, just waited quietly for what was to come.
"It's nothing, lie down, your aunt just came to check on you."
That being said, after Lu Miao really lay down, Tang Mei asked in a soft voice:
"Xiaobao, tell your aunt the truth."
Tang Mei could sense that Lu Miao was in a bad mood, but she couldn't figure out the reason. She could only carefully ask Lu Miao based on the news Lu Yuanzheng brought back a while ago.
"Do you still like Xie Fei?"
Lu Miao has liked the boy from the Xie family next door since he was young. How could he give up the friendship he had pursued for so many years just because he didn't like him?
Tang Mei guessed that her depressed and absent-minded look was related to Xie Fei.
Lu Miao frowned and looked up at Tang Mei.
"Aunt, I told my dad a long time ago!"
Not wanting to show her unhappiness in front of Tang Mei, she turned over, hugged the pillow and faced away from Tang Mei.
"I don't like Xie Fei! That was just my childhood and I didn't understand. Now I'm grown up and I understand it! Can you please stop calling me Xie Fei all the time..."
"Okay, Auntie won't say anymore, Auntie won't say anymore, Xiaobao won't be angry."
Tang Mei quickly apologized and patted Lu Miao's back to comfort him. After a while, she asked cautiously:
"Then do you have anyone else you're interested in? There should be educated youth from other places who went to the countryside, right?"
"without……"
Lu Miao answered swiftly, uttered a word and then suddenly paused.
The silhouette of Fu Jingyou's back flashed unconsciously in my mind.
She didn't like the educated youth, but it seemed that she liked Fu Jingyou.
But what if I like it?
Not to mention the long distance and the ingredients.
Fu Jingyou is from the countryside. Even if his identity will change drastically in the future, Tang Mei and Lu Yuanzheng don’t know it yet.
Would they still agree to her relationship with Fu Jingyou?
Then again, Tang Mei just came over to chat, not to really arrange a marriage for her.
What does it matter whether she likes him or not, or who he likes?
Lu Miao turned his back to Tang Mei, his lips puffed up with uncontrollable depression, "Aunt, I didn't get enough rest this afternoon, and I'm still a little sleepy."
"Okay, then you go to sleep."
Tang Mei responded but didn't leave.
Lu Miao sighed for Bu Kewu and closed his eyes, intending to pretend to be asleep.
Tang Mei would definitely leave when she saw her fall asleep.
But she didn't expect that after she closed her eyes, Tang Mei sat down on the bed from the chair, and patted her back with her warm palm.
Like coaxing a child...
Lu Miao felt a little uncomfortable and thought she would not be able to pretend any longer. But then that warm hand seemed to have magical power, smoothing out her tense back and her furrowed brows...
His body gradually relaxed, and Lu Miao slept very soundly.
In the early morning, a faint ray of light slanted in through the window. She squinted her eyes uncomfortably, then turned over and continued to sleep.
This time, I had another disorganized dream.
A gray coat, a tall stature, and slightly messy hair at the back of the head.
It’s Fu Jingyou.
Fu Jingyou...
Lu Miao shouted, and in his dream, Fu Jingyou kept walking.
With his back to her, he walked further and further away step by step...
Lu Miao shuddered and sat up from the bed.
After taking a few breaths, I realized that an old electric fan that looked like a dwarf had been placed on the chair beside the bed.
"Hula hula" looks like it is spinning very violently, but the wind is actually not very strong.
Lu Miao was sweating all over while sleeping. The weak breeze felt a little cool on his body, and goose bumps appeared on his sweaty body unconsciously.
Lu Miao turned the rotary button to turn off the fan and got out of bed to put on his shoes.
The cloth shoes he had worn earlier were nowhere to be found. Instead, a pair of translucent plastic sandals lay beside the bed, the heels of which were unusually high, two or three centimeters.
After putting it on and trying it out, she found that it was the right size for her feet.
Now that he was home, Lu Miao no longer wore the dusty clothes in the box.
She opened the wardrobe and chose a waist-cinching white shirt according to her preference, and paired it with a dark-colored Dacron skirt that reached her calf.
When I came out of the room, I saw Lu Yuanzheng and Tang Mei having breakfast.
Lu Miao washed up quickly and sat down at the table.
"Xiaobao is still the same as he was in school, so lovable no matter how you look at him."
Tang Mei looked Lu Miao up and down, and was satisfied with what she saw.
"I said I wanted to send you some clothes, but your dad refused, saying they weren't suitable for people over there... Look at you, a beautiful girl, how beautiful would you be if you dressed up properly?"
Lu Miao laughed, lowered his head and ate tofu pudding without saying a word.
"Let's go out and play after dinner."
Lu Yuanzheng was more direct. He took out a Big Unity banknote and a handful of small bills and pushed them to her along the table.
"There's a new movie theater next to the Flower Market. If you see anyone in the alley who's free and you're good friends, you can go together."
Lu Miao said "Oh" and accepted everything.
Tang Mei asked with a smile: "Is there anything in the box that needs to be washed? Take it out and I will wash it later."
Lu Miao shook his head: "Except for what I took off yesterday, everything inside is clean. Just hang it out when you have time."
"I'll find some time to do it later. Just listen to your dad, have fun, and relax!"
"good……"
Lu Miao is not the type who likes to work, so she will certainly not let him down if he gives her time to play.
Moreover, she has been feeling a little depressed these past two days and she really wants to relax.
After finishing his meal, Lu Miao went out with the money in his pocket. As soon as he left the yard, he was dazzled by the scorching sunlight and couldn't open his eyes.
I left in a hurry and should have brought my hat back with me. You can't buy a sun hat with a wide brim at that time.
Thinking of the hat, Lu Miao thought of Fu Jingyou, and he let out another barely audible breath.
Tang Mei thought she was unhappy because she looked up too high outside, so she quickly dug out a liberation cap embroidered with a red five-pointed star from the house:
"Wear this! It'll cover your face and keep it from getting too tanned."
Lu Miao took a look and found that it didn't match her outfit at all.
"No, auntie, this section is all I need to bask in the sun. I'll go ahead and there's a Sophora japonica tree over there, with shade everywhere."
As Lu Miao spoke, he ran out of the yard.
"I probably won't be back for lunch, so please don't wait for me, auntie!"
