Chapter Twenty-Three: The Ou Family's Feast (12)
Mu Yunqing's words made everyone's face look very serious, and they were all wondering if she had reluctantly accepted Lan Moying in her heart with these words, or would something new happen?
Everyone sat thoughtfully waiting for Wu's mother to get ready to eat, only the alarm clock on the wall of the dining room was ticking, but it was even colder in such a quiet dining room. Ou Mingxun looked at everyone and sighed, not knowing what to say.
How could a happy family become like this? In terms of Ou Zhexi's intervention in this matter, Ou Mingxun was thinking, is his son too stubborn? Or is his wife too persistent? Such a mother and son, it seems that there will be an inevitable resurgence of wind and 'waves' because of Lan Moying.
In order to break this dullness, Ou Mingxun looked around, and then stopped his gaze on Lan Moying's body. Looking at the daughter-in-law of the Ou family in front of him, Ou Mingxun read a certain relief from her quietness and calmness, perhaps only such a 'woman' can attract her son's heart. Since their sons like it, why do they have to stop it again and again?
He glanced at his wife again, only to see that her face was still cold, and a trace of disdain swept over Lan Moying's body, and then his eyes stayed on the 'flower' vase in the dining room for a long time. Ou Mingxun knew that this daughter-in-law Mu Yunqing was a hundred annoyances, and it seemed that it would be difficult to change her opinion.
His son Ou Zhexi sat at the table silently, without any expression on his face, perhaps he was also pondering what his mother had just said. Ou Zhexi's contemplation made Ou Mingxun also have an indescribable worry. How could the son born to him not know his temper? If his mother interfered with his feelings again this time, perhaps he would never forgive his mother for what he did for the rest of his life.
Ou Mingxun is a battle-hardened businessman, who has always been keen, and he knows the inner relationship between his son and his wife at a glance. He knew that he was letting go of Ou Zhexi's emotions today, which did not mean that Mu Yunqing was willing to let go like this.
Ou Mingxun is smart, and he feels that the breakthrough to change this stalemate relationship is his wife. He was convinced that as long as his wife opened her heart to accept Lan Moying, Ou Zhexi's heart that had been away from home for a long time would definitely come back.
"Yunqing, you see that it has been a long time ago for a family like ours to eat, isn't this atmosphere very warm today?" Ou Mingxun looked at Mu Yunqing with a deep expression, he was convinced that his wife understood his words.
"Mingxun, do you think that today's meal is boring? Why can't I feel any warmth? Eating in such an atmosphere, I like the purity and trouble that have been enjoyed for many years!" How could Mu Yunqing not understand Ou Mingxun's words? However, the meaning he expressed was not what she wanted to accept, so she bluntly blocked the words back.
Ou Mingxun frowned deeply because of Mu Yunqing's words, it seems that his wife's stubbornness is not something that anyone can change. He didn't know why Mu Yunqing didn't let go of this matter, and he had to be entangled to the end?
"Yunqing, don't you think it's a very happy thing for a few more people in the family to call your mother? We are all old, as long as the family can be reunited!" No matter what Mu Yunqing's attitude is, Ou Mingxun insists on his opinion, it is better to have a warmth than to be at home like this all the time.
"I didn't hear anyone call me mom a few times, except for fighting me as soon as I came back, I didn't seem to feel anything warm!" Mu Yunqing still said with a cold face, her eyes swept over the faces of Ou Zhexi and Lan Moying, and the trace of coldness made Lan Moying's whole body tremble.
Lan Moying knew that Mu Yunqing was talking about her, because after entering the 'door', Ou Zhexi and Lan Ziyue were consumed. She has been standing quietly on the side, unable to say anything, let alone call her mother. Lan Moying also knew that Mu Yunqing was not uncommon, she was calling this mother, but deliberately picking on thorns.
"Dad, Mom, I'm very happy to marry into the Ou family, and I'm also very happy to have dinner with you today!" Lan Moying raised his head, no matter how difficult it was, he still called out his parents. She just wanted to finish the meal quietly and leave, not wanting to continue in such an embarrassing atmosphere.
"Are you very happy to marry into the Ou family? If you are really happy, it won't be so troublesome! And your mother, I can't stand it!" Mu Yunqing still insisted on embarrassing her after Lan Moying shouted this mother.
However, Lan Moying's embarrassment for Mu Yunqing was expected, so her face did not change much, and she still sat quietly, looking at everyone quietly.
Lan Moying has always felt that she can only ask for herself, and she can't ask others for anything. Therefore, she did this politeness, regardless of whether she was the real daughter-in-law of the Ou family or not, at least she did not embarrass and cold anyone on such occasions.
As for Mu Yunqing's willingness to accept this mother, it was not important to Lan Moying. She didn't cry and shout that she had to marry into the Ou family, she had to be Ou Zhexi's wife. If it weren't for the sake of the overall situation, she wouldn't have come to eat this meal.
Lan Moying suddenly felt strange about herself, with her personality, she would not normally come to eat this meal, was it really because of the stubbornness in her heart? Or was she really attracted by Ou Zhexi invisibly and was willing to cooperate with him to do something?
The more Lan Moying thought about it, the more terrifying she felt, as if she really invisibly turned her dislike for Ou Zhexi into some kind of attraction, such a situation was a headache for Lan Moying, and she couldn't believe it.
Faced with Mu Yunqing's repeated resistance, Ou Mingxun's face finally became ugly. However, in front of everyone, he doesn't want to put anything on his face, so there is no other way than to change the topic.
"Zhexi, you're married, why don't you move back and live with us?" Ou Mingxun was trying his best to ease the tension at the dinner table, because of Mu Yunqing's words, he had already seen his son's face even colder.
"No need, I think it's good to live outside, free!" Ou Zhexi didn't receive Ou Mingxun's affection, he knew that his father could put down the elder's shelf again and again today, and what he was trying to do, it was not easy. However, his mother's attitude made him completely cold, and when he came back, everyone got along together, and it seemed that it was inevitable.
Instead of this, Ou Zhexi felt that it was better for everyone to keep the original side quiet and live their own peace of mind. He himself felt very strange, all he was thinking about was Lan Moying's feelings now. Perhaps, if you fall in love with someone, you will do a lot for her, right?
Ou Mingxun knew that what his son decided, and there was no room for recovery, so he didn't say anything anymore. However, he admired Lan Moying's indifference and quietness after being robbed by Mu Yunqing. He is convinced that such a 'girl' child can be a good daughter-in-law and 'wife' of the Ou family.
