Curley thinks that Lennie is smiling because of everyone else is bullying him after him and Slim had a disagreement. E.g after Candy got involved in the bullying by saying, "glove fulla vaseline" as an attack towards Curley.

Lennie was smiling in chapter 3 of "Of Mice and Men" because he was daydreaming about owning his own piece of land and living off the fat of the land, a recurring fantasy that brings him comfort. This vision of a better future gives him hope and makes him happy.

∙ 13y agoI'm assuming you mean when Curley comes in and is making a scene and Lennie is laughing. If you are not than I apologize. But if that is what you are talking about than it is because George has once again told Lennie the story about their plan for the ranch and given Lennie this wonderful scene to put himself in. He is still laughing about that when Curley walks in and thinks he is laughing at him.
