"She went to look for you?" Mu Shaoling frowned, thinking that Zhang Yali didn't dare to trouble Mr. Mu, but she didn't expect her to be so courageous.
"It's just a phone call, she can't make a fuss, enjoy your vacation and hang up first." Old Master Mu felt relieved when he knew where Mu Shaoling had gone.
Even though Mu Shaoling didn't explain clearly the reason for going to City X, he still knew that the big reason was because of Zhang Yali.
Mr. Mu also knew that Mu Shaoling had worked hard these days, and he should relax, so he decided to block Zhang Yali for him.
After finishing the call, Mu Shaoling looked gloomy.
"Dad, what's the matter?" Zhan Zhan asked first.
"It's okay." Mu Shaoling didn't intend to tell them about Zhang Yali, after all, she was a grandma, and now he was trying to maintain Zhang Yali's image in the child's heart.
The three children looked at each other, thinking that something must happen.
It's just that their dad won't tell them.
Mu Shaoling pulled back Zhang Yali's phone blacklist, and gave her a final warning: "If you harass grandpa, I won't pay for your surgery."
He didn't withhold Zhang Yali's pocket money, which was the alimony she deserved.
If they cheated, Zhang Yali would make a big fuss, which would eventually affect the Mu family and the T Group.
It's just the surgery money, he doesn't have to give it.
Zhang Yali's operation was meaningless in the first place. If she really dared to make a big fuss, he could make it smaller.
Before Zhang Yali could reply, Mu Shaoling blocked her again and stood up, "I'll go to pay the bill."
As soon as Mu Shaoling left the private room, the three children whispered in front of Nian Mu, "Dad must have something to do."
"And it's something related to the family."
They nodded and looked at Nianmu again.
Being watched by the three children, Nianmu explained helplessly: "I'm just like you, I don't know anything."
She guessed it, but Mu Shaoling didn't want the children to know, so she didn't say anything.
"Maybe it's grandma who's tossing about again." Taotao was very smart, and got to the point right away.
"When will grandma go back to Korea?" Ruan Ruan frowned. Although Zhang Yali was their grandma, they loved their father more.
If their father was not strong enough, they would be cheated to death by grandma in minutes.
"Maybe after the Chinese New Year." Zhan Zhan estimated that he had heard the conversation between adults.
It is said that Zhang Yali will come to celebrate the New Year, so she should go back after the New Year.
"Oh." Ruan Ruan replied, and did not speak again.
After Mu Shaoling settled the bill, he left with Nianmu and the child, and went to the supermarket to buy ingredients and ingredients for barbecue.
These are all selected by Nianmu.
Seeing that all the ingredients she picked were unmarinated, and they had to be processed after returning home, Mu Shaoling said, "Just buy some pre-marinated ingredients, so you don't have to worry about it."
The cook doesn't go to work until the time is up, and these ingredients won't taste good unless they are marinated for two or three hours.
So the job of pickling naturally fell on Nianmu's head.
Mu Shaoling didn't want her to be too tired.
Nian Mu smiled and said, "These marinated ones are definitely not as delicious as the ones made by myself, and the tastes of city A and city X are also very different. To entertain Mr. Song and Li Ni, it is better to have some familiar flavors. good."
"That's right, sister's pickling must taste better than supermarket pickling." Taotao is a glutton, knowing that Nianmu's pickling must taste better than supermarket pickling, so he agreed.
"Little greedy cat." Seeing the child's appearance, Mu Shaoling couldn't help shaking his head.
Taotao looked at them with a smile.
After buying the ingredients, Mu Shaoling left with two big bags, while Nianmu was in charge of holding the child's hand and following him.
Putting the ingredients back into the car, Mu Shaoling received a message from Song Beixi.
After reading it, he said to Nian Mu: "They have already arrived in City X, and they will arrive at the ancient house in about half an hour."
Nianmu nodded and put on his seat belt, "Then let's go back quickly."
"Yes." After Mu Shaoling put on his seat belt, he drove back to the old house.
The people surrounding the outer wall of the old house changed again. Because of the time, there were actually a little more people who came.
Nianmu couldn't help sighing, "Isn't this going to be a scenic spot in City X?"
"You can understand it this way." Mu Shaoling said, the design here, even the outer wall, is an excellent landscape.
At the beginning, he and the designer spent a lot of thought on the exterior wall.
Although the exterior wall here has its own characteristics, the security system has not fallen, and it is covered by the scenery. However, if someone crosses the wall or does something shady, the security system will issue a warning.
Because of this, many construction companies will come to observe and imitate.
Nianmu looked at the people on the outer wall, and was not surprised.
After all, Mu Shaoling's architectural design ability is recognized all over the world.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the car drove into the old house, attracting another round of onlookers.
Nianmu kept looking back, worried that someone would break in, and she was relieved until the door was completely closed.
After Mu Shaoling parked the car in the parking lot, Hu Ba came over, opened the trunk, and took out two bags of ingredients from it.
"Master, madam, you just go in, let me do the work." Hu Ba said, although he was a housekeeper, he still showed the simplicity of a villager in X City.
As he spoke, he lifted the two bags of ingredients and walked inside.
Nianmu took the child through the courtyard and followed her in. After changing her clothes, she said to Mu Shaoling beside her, "Then I'll go to the kitchen to pickle the ingredients first."
"En." Mu Shaoling nodded, looking at the three children.
"Father, don't worry about us. We have brought calligraphy homework and we have to do it." Taotao said first.
Mu Shaoling patted his head, "Well, let's go."
The three children went upstairs to finish their calligraphy homework.
Nianmu bought a lot of ingredients, and Mu Shaoling thought that if Nianmu marinated these ingredients alone, he would be very tired, so he walked into the kitchen, "I'll help you."
"Mr. Mu?" Nian Mu turned to look at him, only to see that he walked straight to her side and rolled up his sleeves.
"What can I do?" Mu Shaoling asked.
Nianmu frowned and reminded him, "Mr. Mu, with your appearance, it's easy to stain your shirt."
Every piece of his clothes is expensive, if it gets dirty it's really hard to wash, if it's thrown away it's a waste.
Mu Shaoling saw a sky-blue apron next to him, so he picked it up and put it on.
Nian Mu's brows changed from frowning to provocative now, isn't he afraid of getting dirty?
"What?" Seeing that her expression had changed, Mu Shaoling looked down at the apron.
It was a normal apron, unisex, and he tied it too.
"Aren't you worried that someone has used this apron?" Nian Mu said, taking out a large pack of chicken wings from the bag beside her. She remembered that Li Ni liked grilled chicken wings the most.
