Chapter 22: Sleek
"What should a junior do?"
When the old lady heard this, the corners of her lips couldn't help but rise a little, but the smile did not reach the bottom of her eyes, and there was a hint of sarcasm.
"Tell me, then, how are you going to do your duty?" The old lady pursed her lips slightly, and swept over Mu Yunxue again with a scrutinizing eye, so shocked that Mu Yunxue couldn't help but be excited again, and her body trembled subconsciously.
"I ......" Mu Yunxue not only trembled, but even couldn't help but tremble and stammer, that step was like being filled with iron, she couldn't move for half a minute, she was stunned in place for a long time, and she couldn't squeeze out the words next to her.
"Grandmother is not strange, my sister is young and it is common sense that she is not sensible. Besides, my mother loves her very much on weekdays, and when my mother is not here, my sister will inevitably panic. ”
Before Mu Yunge could say anything, a low male voice full of smiles jumped out, and then saw a figure as tall as bamboo stepping out.
When the old lady heard this, her eyebrows raised slightly, and she looked at the source of the sound with a little doubt, and she had an epiphany at a glance, and said, "You are Yun Ge's door-to-door husband?" ”
Lin Xuanqi wore a smile and looked handsome and friendly, but in fact, he had a bad stomach, and turned around to give Mu Yunxue eye medicine in front of the old lady.
And Mu Yunxue is a simple-minded person, just looking at the surface, she thought he was helping her, and she was so moved that she couldn't do it for a while, and she became more persistent in some thoughts.
"The granddaughter is planning to introduce it to her grandmother, this is the husband of the granddaughter, Lin Xuanzhen." Mu Yunge glanced at Lin Xuanyu thoughtfully, and then smiled at the old lady, her eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and her smile was like a smile.
The old lady lifted her eyelids lightly, looked at Mu Yunge's eyes with some meaning, her slightly cloudy eyes flashed a trace of essence, and then said something to Mu Yunge in a deep voice.
"It's okay to watch."
The old lady had actually heard about this marriage, but she didn't like it before, so she didn't ask, if it wasn't for the indecent trouble this time, she wouldn't have come back to drip into the troubled waters.
Then he glanced at Mu Yunxue, who was shrinking from his hands and feet, as if inadvertently, and his disgust and boredom were self-evident. Sure enough, what came out of the steproom was something that couldn't be put on the table.
Although the old lady had a straight face and looked solemn, Mu Yunge always wanted to get close to her for some reason, and the curvature of the corners of her lips was rising more and more.
"Grandmother is tired of traveling, let's go back to the yard and rest now." Mu Yunge came with Lin Xuanqing, it was really to say goodbye and leave a good impression on the old lady, instead of disturbing her purity and making her even more tired.
The corners of Lin Xuanqing's lips curved again, and he added with Mu Yunge's words: "Exactly, for the return of grandmother, my mother has worked a lot of effort to make the house up and down, and the whole house has a new look." ”
As Lin Xuanyu's words fell, the old lady raised her eyes and looked at the house, her eyes sank suddenly, and she looked at the dull and deep color of the courtyard, and her brows gradually frowned.
Mu Yunge saw the old lady's dissatisfaction at a glance, and spoke at the right time: "Mother thinks that grandmother may like this kind of calm color, but in the eyes of her granddaughter, although these colors are calm, they are full of these, and they can't help but be a little lifeless. There happens to be a rosewood carved begonia embroidered screen in the granddaughter's room, and Cui'er will send it over later, so that it can add a touch of color and make the grandmother look happier. ”
The old lady couldn't help but narrow her eyes with satisfaction, looked at Mu Yunge again, and once again felt that the eldest granddaughter in front of her was really different.
"Lady's proposal is good, and the only one in the entire house who can afford rosewood is my grandmother." Lin Xuanqing and Mu Yunge almost sang and harmonized, which made the old lady's heart smooth.
Although the Li family pushed Mu Yunxue over, he also knew what kind of character his daughter was, so he couldn't rest assured that he would follow.
As soon as I came over, I saw Mu Yunxue trembling in the corner like a wood and a quail, and Mu Yunge and Lin Xuanyu were talking and laughing beside the old lady.
Although the old lady still held a stand with a straight face, her solemn face was already a lot kinder, and it was clear that she did not reject their approach.
Damn it!
Li Shi squeezed the handkerchief in his hand, took a deep breath, and walked up with a smile, and interjected in a sharp voice: "It is true that only mother can afford to use rosewood." Fortunately, during the days when the mother worshiped the Buddha, the daughter-in-law was still diligent, so that she would not make ends meet in the house, and she could afford the rosewood used by her mother. ”
As soon as Li interjected like this, the smile in the old lady's eyes dispersed a little. looked at her smug and pretentious way of talking, and I didn't like it.
"What, do you want me to thank you?" The old lady did not hide the dislike in her heart, and sneered: "Day by day, I fell into the eyes of money, no wonder my daughter taught her like this, shrunk her head and brain, and was completely embarrassed." ”
Mu Yunxue didn't expect that she would just stand still, and she would be disgusted by the old lady if she didn't say a word, and she was ridiculed to her face, her little face suddenly turned red, and Mu Yunge's dead girl was also there, it was really a shame!
Li didn't expect that the old lady would dislike her so bluntly, and she couldn't hold her face for a while.
As soon as Mu Yunge heard the old lady say this, he couldn't help but be happy in his heart, and at the same time, his good impression of the old lady also rose.
Lin Xuanqing knew the old lady's temperament early on, but it was not surprising, but Mu Yunge was happy in his heart, that is, he was a little relaxed, the corners of his lips continued to rise, and he did not restrain himself on this occasion, if he was discovered, he would inevitably be reprimanded.
Seeing that Mu Yunge didn't realize it, Lin Xuanqing was helpless and spoiled in her heart, so Li couldn't hold her face, and habitually wanted to trouble Mu Yunge, so she took a step forward and blocked her in front of her, covering the light of Li's eyes.
"I think the kitchen has already prepared food, and at this time my grandmother is afraid that she is also hungry, so why not move to the dining room to eat."
Lin Xuanqing just covered Mu Yunge, preventing the gloating smile that was obvious on the corner of her lips from being discovered, and very appropriately diverted the topic, alleviating this embarrassing situation.
Seeing that there was a step down, Li Shi had no reason, and nodded again and again: "That's right, I'm tired of my mother's move, today's daughter-in-law specially ordered the kitchen to prepare a table of mother's favorite dishes." ”
Mu Yunge also reacted at this time, narrowed the smile on the corner of his lips, and at the same time secretly looked at Lin Xuanqing, and couldn't help but be a little surprised.
This husband of hers is very tactful!
