Chapter Fifty-Eight: Dad's Cousin

"Quarrel? No, I don't. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Dad seemed to have just understood, looked at Mu Xi and smiled, and gently rubbed her head.

The short hair, which was already a little disobedient, was instantly dried by his kneaded hair, Mu Xi glared at him with disgust, retreated his body, and avoided the claws of his father again.

"Tell me what kind of face, Dad, you just want to die to save face, if your mother starts a fire for a while, don't blame me for not helping you speak~" Mu Xi took a bite of the apple fiercely, lowered her head and pretended to ignore him, in fact, she was waiting for him to answer her.

After eating the last bite of the apple, Mu Xi raised her sore neck and found that her father was reading the newspaper without squinting at the side, and was not affected by her in the slightest. In the past, as long as she ignored him, he would coax her to say a few soft words, why is it so abnormal today?

Hum! She didn't believe it, he could bear to ignore her.

Mu Xi turned on the TV, deliberately turned on the sound very loudly, and secretly looked at his father's reaction out of the corner of his eyes, seeing that his body moved, he frowned, and Mu Xi smiled proudly.

But what disappointed her was that then her father seemed to see through her intentions, his eyes were fixed on the newspaper, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile, and the two were in a stalemate for about ten minutes, and finally failed because Mu Xi couldn't stand the noise.

She turned off the TV in annoyance, put her arm on her shoulder, and stared at her father unconvinced, who was still reading his newspaper with an expression that Taishan had collapsed in front of him and his face did not change, and she had to admit that Jiang was really old and spicy.

Just when the two were secretly competing, there was a sound of the key to Suosuo, and then the door was opened, as soon as the mother entered the door, the father quickly slipped to her side, while taking the dishes in her hand, while saying that his wife was the hardest and so on, he followed behind his mother with his head bowed, and the flattering expression on his face made Mu Xi dislike him very much.

"Mom, why do you buy so many vegetables?" Mu Xi also stood up and walked over to them.

"There's a guest at noon." Mom changed her shoes as she spoke, and followed Dad into the kitchen.

"Guests? Who's coming? ”

Mu Xi's family rarely comes to the guests, grandparents died early, his father is an only son, there are no brothers and sisters, except for those who are on the side of the door, they go to the door during the New Year's holidays, and there are only a handful of relatives who really come and go.

My mother only has one sister, she emigrated as soon as she got married, and she only comes back once a year, but it is always at Christmas. My grandparents are still alive, and now they live in another city, and it takes two or three hours to drive, and she has to go back to accompany the elderly almost every month.

Mu Xi's question seemed to really stump her mother, she glanced at her father, who put down the food in his hand, hesitated for a while, and thought for a long time before saying: "You should call him cousin according to generation, he is about the same age as me, but he has already come out of the five suits, so you can call him Uncle Cao." ”

Mu Xi nodded, and didn't ask anymore, anyway, after eating for a while, she didn't have anything to do, so she didn't care too much. Mu Xi looked at the wall clock, it was already half past ten, and she knew that she was going to have a big meal at noon, so she casually put on her breakfast, and only drank a bowl of gruel and went upstairs.

Mu Xi returned to the room and read the book for a while, thinking about next Monday's English exam, although she was a little resistant in her heart, she still took out the English book and memorized the words for a while, but she didn't expect that today's words were memorized surprisingly fast and smooth, and it only took more than half an hour for her to remember those dense tadpole texts.

After memorizing the words, Mu Xi was in a good mood, she was originally a little worried about next week's English exam, but now she was finally relieved.

My mother came up and knocked on the door and told her to change her clothes and go to dinner.

Mu Xi looked at the time, the time passed so fast, it was already twelve o'clock in a while, she cleaned up a little, changed into a set of casual clothes and went downstairs.

Lunch was hearty, and my mother made a big table of dishes. Mu Xi walked to the table and sat down, and politely greeted the person who looked ordinary and dressed in a very exaggerated color.

"Uncle Cao is good~"

"Good, good. Hehe, Xiao Soft, right, very polite! Come, uncle is here for the first time, and I don't know what you like, so I didn't prepare any meeting gifts, this is for you by my uncle, buy what you like~"

A hand with two large gold rings, holding a handful of red bills, stretched out in front of her across the half table of dishes.

Mu Xi looked at the dozen banknotes, spread out like a dense small fan, there should be a lot of them, and she was a little stunned, first, she didn't know what to do.

"Fidelity, what are you polite, she is a little child, what do you want so much money for." Dad glanced at Mu Xi with a somewhat bad face, as if he blamed Mu Xi for not opening his mouth to refuse.

"Brother Feng, girls like to buy some clothes and cosmetics or something, this money is not much, isn't there a saying, girls should be rich, Xiao Soft, what I wear today is very simple, but it's not good to be too simple. Our Lily, who should be two or three years older than Xiaosoft, went to college last year, but she can dress up, and she will spend this amount just to buy cosmetics a year. ”

Fugui stretched out his other hand and drew a five, and after the comparison, he looked at his father with a proud face, as if his daughter could spend money, just to give him the face of being a father.

"Five thousand?" Mu Xi ignored her mother's glance at her and guessed curiously.

"Fifty thousand! This is still the most basic, counting those clothes and jewelry, the cost of 100,000 yuan a year can't be stopped. The man smiled, revealing his blurred yellow teeth soaked in cigarettes.

Mu Xi's heart was surging when she heard this, looking at the short and fat man in front of her, her eyes were adoring the little stars, and she originally thought that his exaggerated dressing style had become fashionable in her eyes.

She smiled and was about to reach out to pick it up, but her father actually put away the banknotes one step ahead of her, sorted them out on the table, and handed them back to Cao Fuda's hands.

"Fidelity, our family doesn't like this, you can put it away." Dad coughed twice, glanced at Mu Xi, and said.

Cao Fuda also seemed to be a little embarrassed, and wanted to let go, but his father's expression was very resolute, which made him embarrassed, so he had to take it back and put it back into his grumbling leather bag again.

But he had seen the world in the end, and the embarrassing atmosphere didn't last long before it was alleviated by his joke, everyone was amused, and they were talking happily again, among the three, only Mu Xi smiled very reluctantly.

What is this, seeing the banknotes in his hand flying like this, Mu Xi rolled his eyes several times angrily in his heart.

Why don't you like this, it's just that dad is stingy!
