Well, the eldest young master called back last night and said that the family would be back for dinner. "The butler said with a smile.
"Well, let's get the kitchen ready." Mr. Mu said. This was the first family dinner after Nian Mu confessed his true identity to them.
Although Cai Xiufen, Zhang Yali, and Mu Ruicheng's family were not present, and it was not considered a family dinner for the entire Mu family, Mr. Mu still attached great importance to it. "Don't worry, the cook and the nanny went out to buy ingredients early this morning." The housekeeper said. He knew that Mr. Mu valued this family banquet, so when he told the cook, he also emphasized the importance of the old man.
.
Mr. Mu takes it seriously, and the cook will definitely prepare tonight's family banquet with 200% of her heart.
"Well, that's good. Let the driver prepare the car. I'm going to the park." After Mr. Mu finished speaking, he stood up.
"Yes." The steward responded and went to inform the driver to prepare the car.
Ever since Cai Xiufen moved out, Mr. Mu's life seemed to have suddenly become more leisurely. Although it was also very leisurely before, he seemed to be unable to relax with Cai Xiufen's presence. Things are different now. After Cai Xiufen moved out of the Mu family's old house, Mr. Mu became more relaxed. He would often go to the nearby middle-aged and elderly park for a walk in the morning, play Tai Chi and chess with other people, and interact with ordinary elderly people.
Just the same, enjoying retirement life.
…
evening.
Because he was going to the Mu family's old house, Nian Mu asked all the researchers in the team to get off work on time, and he also left the office on time.
She did not go directly to the old house, but went home first. This was their agreement. They would wait at home together and then set off together.
Back at the villa, the three children have returned home from school, but Li Ni has not come back yet.
Nian Mu walked into the living room, looked at the three children doing homework and asked, "Is Mr. Mu back?"
Because Aunt Wu was still there, she still called Mu Shaoling the same name as before.
Taotao shook his head and said: "Dad is not back yet, but my brother sent him a WeChat message just now, saying that he is already on his way back."
"Well, okay, you guys do your homework first, and I'll go pack some medicinal materials." Nian Mu said. The last time I asked Aunt Wu to help buy medicinal materials, in addition to buying some for Zhou Qing, I also bought some for Mr. Mu.
She originally planned to take time to send it to her old house, but she didn't expect that there would be so many things going on during this period, so her plan to send the medicinal materials was also delayed.
"Okay." The three children said in unison, while Nian Mu walked into the storage room and found the medicinal materials that Aunt Wu had helped to buy before.
She checked and found that there was nothing wrong with the medicinal materials. Because they were stored well, no spoilage was found, and the fragrance of the medicinal materials was still very strong. Such medicinal materials were just right for making medicinal meals.
Nian Mu walked out with two bags of medicinal materials and put them on the coffee table. He was about to get the glass jars to refill them when the doorbell rang.
Aunt Wu wanted to help Nian Mu. When she heard the doorbell ringing, she walked to the video phone and saw Cai Xiufen standing at the door. She subconsciously turned to look at Nian Mu.
"What's wrong?" Nian Mu originally wanted Aunt Wu to help get the glass jar, but when he met her eyes, he had a vague premonition, "Who is at the door?"
"It's the eldest lady..." Aunt Wu added: "She's the second young master's biological mother."
"Well, open the door." Nian Mu said, although he was confused as to why Cai Xiufen came here again. After all, she didn't gain anything from being here last time.
But people are already standing at the door, so there's no way the door won't open here.
After all, she was an elder of the Mu family, so she couldn't do this. She just had a bad feeling in her heart, and she couldn't help but hope that Mu Shaoling would come back soon.
When the three children heard that it was Cai Xiufen, and then heard that it was Nian Mu who opened the door, they made a move together.
Put all the homework books in your schoolbag and go upstairs.
Zhan Zhan was the last one to go upstairs and said, "Sister, call us when you are about to go out."
Then he followed his younger siblings upstairs to do homework.
Aunt Wu and Nian Mu were left in the living room.
Aunt Wu has worked in the Mu family for so many years, and she knows this eldest lady well. It has been so long since Cai Xiufen moved to the villa next door that she has never come to the door. She must be looking for trouble when she comes here now, but what kind of trouble is she looking for? Aunt Wu is definitely not looking for herself, so she asked: "Ms. Nian, how about I Follow first
Can the student tell him to come back soon? "
"No, he's already on his way back, and it's not safe to drive too fast. Aunt Wu, go prepare slippers for Mrs. Mu." Nian Mu knew that Cai Xiufen must be causing trouble for her when she came here this time.
Although the other party is Mu Shaoling's aunt, she has known Mu Shaoling's abilities for so many years and will definitely not find faults casually.
Cai Xiufen wouldn't be so stupid after picking a problem last time, but she still didn't get any benefits. Now she comes to trouble Mu Shaoling again.
So it's most likely that it's coming for you.
Nianmu's temples bulged faintly a few times. She knew how capable this lady was of causing trouble.
"Yes." Aunt Wu nodded and stood at the entrance waiting for Cai Xiufen.
Cai Xiufen walked in. Aunt Wu had already put away the disposable slippers and said with a smile: "Madam, please change into slippers."
Cai Xiufen looked at the disposable slippers on the ground with a cold expression. She stood there without changing them and asked, "Is Mu Shaoling back?"
"Sir hasn't come back yet." Aunt Wu replied, but added randomly, "But he is already on his way back."
"Where's Nian Mu?"
"Ms. Nian is back." When Aunt Wu heard her ask, she knew in her heart that she was really causing trouble for Nian Mu.
After Cai Xiufen heard her answer, she changed her shoes and walked into the living room. She saw Nian Mu sitting on the sofa, tinkering with something.
When I walked in, I saw that she was tinkering with medicinal materials. Rather than tinkering, she was putting the medicinal materials into glass jars.
Cai Xiufen saw that she had no reaction when she walked in, so she walked to the sofa in front of her and sat down, sitting in a dignified posture, and coughed lightly.
Nian Mu raised his eyes slightly and saw her. He didn't react much. He just said lightly, "Mrs. Mu, are you here to see Shao Ling? He is still on the way. Please wait a moment."
Seeing her attitude toward her, Cai Xiufen couldn't help but get angry and said, "I'm not here to find him."
Nianmu paused for a moment and then asked: "Then you are..."
"I'm looking for Ruicheng," Cai Xiufen said.
Not only was Nian Mu a little surprised, but Aunt Wu who was serving her tea was also a little surprised. She was here to find Mu Ruicheng?
"Mrs. Mu, then you are looking in the wrong place. Second Young Master Mu is not here." Nian Mu still kept moving. He packed a Chinese herbal medicine and picked up another clean glass bottle.
This kind of bottle has a strong seal and will not affect the medicinal materials inside even if it is placed in a humid place.
"How could he not be here? Did Mu Shaoling secretly take him in?" Cai Xiufen knew that Mu Ruicheng was not here, but she had to say this.
Because she doesn't know the whereabouts of Murui Cheng now. It's funny, as a mother, she couldn't contact her son.
