Chapter 25: Mother and Son

The eldest lady suddenly had a deep sense of failure, she rubbed her eyebrows and took a deep breath, and said for a long time, "Prepare a table of Yang'er's favorite dishes in the evening, and let him keep his stomach and have dinner with me." ”

Mother Sun answered.

In the evening, Mu Chaoyang was invited to Zhiqiu Courtyard for dinner.

The house was quiet, and the maids and maids were all sent outside to wait.

There are seven or eight dishes on the red sandalwood kang table, stewed pigeon chicks, yellow fried whitebait, pickled crab, and sour bamboo shoot soup......

These are all things that Mu Chaoyang likes to eat in his daily life.

The eldest lady sat on the side of the kang with a smile in her homely clothes, looked at her son and said gently, "Sit down and eat, it's all your favorite food." ”

Mu Chaoyang shrugged slightly, every time he wanted to teach him a few words, he would put on such a show......

He coughed dryly and stared at the plate of pickled crabs, and said to himself, "I like crabs, but I don't like to be trained......"

The eldest lady couldn't help but burst out laughing when she heard this, reached out and slapped Mu Chaoyang's back lightly, and said with a smile, "Flim tongue, who said that my mother was going to train you?" ”

"Mother doesn't discipline me?" Mu Chaoyang sat down, grabbed a crab, tore off his legs and began to peel the crab meat, and said casually, "If you really don't discipline me, I'm really not at ease." ”

The eldest lady laughed helplessly.

No matter what, he can always amuse her with words.

Mu Chaoyang peeled off the crab meat and sandwiched it into the eldest lady's bowl.

The eldest lady looked at her son carefully, although her son was only thirteen, he had already surpassed her in size, coupled with his outstanding facial features, and elegant temperament, the childishness of a child could not be found in him at all, but instead he was calm and introverted.

He's really not a kid anymore.

The eldest lady was quiet and exhaled softly.

Mu Chaoyang raised his eyebrows, swallowed a bite of crab meat and asked, "Why is my mother sighing?" ”

The eldest lady stared at her son, and said softly for a long time, "Mother thinks you have grown up, and I ...... Seems to be getting old too......"

The eldest lady looked stunned.

She had never felt so old as she did now, and she felt that her son was about to get out of control......

"How can my mother be old?" Mu Chaoyang got up, took a towel and dried his hands, and put his hands on the shoulders of the eldest lady, as close as when he was a child, and smiled gently, "My mother will always be young in my eyes." ”

Thousands of clothes are not worn, the eldest lady smiled and patted the back of Mu Chaoyang's hand, "Okay, okay, my mother knows that you have a sweet mouth, sit down and eat." ”

Mu Chaoyang sat back down, and the mother and son began to eat, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

When Mu Chaoyang swallowed the last mouthful of soup, the eldest lady sat up straight and wiped the corners of her mouth and said, "Have you eaten enough?" ”

Mu Chaoyang nodded.

The eldest lady said, "I'll have something to ask you when you're full." ”

Mu Chaoyang looked at the eldest lady depressedly, "Aren't you bothering me?" ”

The eldest lady smiled bitterly, shook her head and said, "I didn't bother you, my mother is just ...... Just something to ask you. ”

Mu Chaoyang spread his hands, "What does my mother want to ask?" Then he said, "If my mother asks me if I have a girl I like, it must be none." ”

The corners of the eldest lady's mouth twitched, and her expression suddenly became stern, "The girl you like?" Who taught you this? ”

Mu Chaoyang was stunned for a moment, and then said with a bitter face, "I'm thirteen, why do I need others to teach me ......?"

"What about Thirteen?" The eldest lady said in a displeased tone, and said with a cold face, "What matters now is your studies, and the things next to you will naturally come in the future, what are you anxious about?" ”

Mu Chaoyang smiled bitterly again, "Mother, you misunderstood me, I'm not in a hurry." ”

"Isn't there a hurry?" The eldest lady said with a dark face, "How can I send medicine to Yan Yatou if I am not in a hurry?" ”

Hearing this, Mu Chaoyang finally understood that the purpose of her mother inviting him to dinner today was actually here.

Over the years, he has also been humiliated for Mu Yan and his marriage contract, and he has a lot of complaints about it in his heart, and now he is a little angry in his heart when his mother asks such words.

However, his lips trembled a few times, and he didn't say anything serious after all, but said lightly, "Mother, you think about it too much, I just went to deliver the medicine, and I don't have any other thoughts." ”

"Just to deliver medicine?" The eldest lady obviously didn't believe it, and her voice was a little sharp.

She looked at Mu Chaoyang fixedly, stared at it for a long time before changing her tone, and said bitterly, "Mother doesn't blame you for giving her medicine, Mother knows that you are kind-hearted, and you know that you can't see people suffering, but you must know that men are determined in all directions, and they should first put their fame and career first......"

"Alright." Mu Chaoyang suddenly interrupted the eldest lady's words impatiently, and he said a little irritably, "Mother, I know what I'm doing, I'm already an adult, and I know what to do and what not to do." ”

“…… I gave her medicine just because she was hurt, and I happened to hear about it. He said word by word, but he felt very awkward in his heart.

When the eldest lady heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief, and there was a light smile on her face, "It's not that my mother is troublesome......

"I know." Mu Chaoyang's face was pale, "I know that my mother is for my good, and my mother wants me to start a family after I become famous." At the moment, although I have a marriage contract with her, there will be a lot of gossip when we meet alone, and my mother is afraid that these gossips will not be good for me. ”

The eldest lady pursed her lips together, looking into her son's eyes but not knowing what to say.

What she is most afraid of is not gossip, but that her son will really like Mu Yan.

She can't ask such a woman to be her daughter-in-law, absolutely not.

The eldest lady pinched her fingers, but squeezed out a smile on her face and said, "Yes, I think you are still young, and it is not a good time to start a family." ”

The mother and son talked about this, and after Mu Chaoyang left, the eldest lady reclined on the couch dejectedly.

After all, she didn't dare to say some things to her son, she was afraid that her son would blame her for treachery, blame her for crossing the river and tearing down the bridge, and blame her for being unkind......

But as a mother, she had to think a lot for her son.

This night, the eldest lady didn't close her eyes all night, and it wasn't until the second day that she barely got up and called five henchmen early, and carefully selected a mother-in-law surnamed Zhu to arrange it by Mu Yan's side.

This Zhu's mother used to be in charge of the kitchen and was very neat.

The first time Mu Yan saw her, he had a feeling in his heart that he wanted to win over this person.

But Mother Zhu doesn't talk much, and in addition to being strict in managing things, she hardly smiles.

Mu Yan asked Taohong to quietly check the details of Mother Bamboo.

Mother Zhu is a fifteen-year-old Mu Mansion, when she came with a five-year-old girl, it was the eldest lady who took in their mother and daughter.

Mu Yan let out a sigh.

It seems that this bamboo mother is not easy to woo, she does things for the eldest wife, most likely because she is repaying her kindness.

Fortunately, Mother Zhu is not as broken as Mother Qin, nor does she bully people, although she monitors Mu Yan's words and deeds, she never practices Mu Yan, nor does she interfere with Mu Yan.

Mu Yan is very satisfied with this.
