Chapter 261: Then endure it for a few more days
Mu Jiaojiao has been quite comfortable recently, basking in the sun every day, painting as she likes, and being leisurely.
Although the family would still come over occasionally and tentatively talk to her about topics she didn't like.
However, she skillfully prevaricated away.
Lianwa told her not to talk too much, not to explain anything, and not to try to compete with them.
Just pretend to be weak.
It's a strategy!
Mu Jiaojiao didn't understand it at first, but because she had full trust in Jiang Zhilian, she still did it.
However, in the past few days, she has gradually smacked a little taste.
Even a nervous person like Zhu Baomei also felt the change in the Mu family's attitude towards Jiaojiao.
"? It's amazing! Your family doesn't seem to be telling you much now. Zhu Baomei sat on the back chair like an uncle, fanning the wind with a banana fan.
The wind is so strong that it's like an electric fan turned on to its maximum gear.
Mu Jiaojiao, who was sitting on the side, was basking in the sun and felt extremely cool.
"Maybe they think that my physical health is more important than my future and marriage. I didn't live with them before, they couldn't see it, and they probably didn't feel it that deeply. Now I dangle in front of their eyes every day, as if they are about to die, and I guess they will be more or less stimulated. ”
Mu Jiaojiao secretly stuck out her tongue at Zhu Baomei, "I've eaten well recently, and I'm comfortable living here, in fact, I'm full of energy!" I really want to hang out...... I miss my little Dongdong! ”
Zhu Baomei thought about it, leaned into Mu Jiaojiao's ear, and whispered: "Do you want me to send a message out and let Qiao Dong come over, and you can meet secretly at night?" ”
"Don't do it!" Mu Jiaojiao rejected this proposal without thinking, "It's too dangerous, let's stay honest first!" I finally eased up with them a little, don't mess up again! ”
Zhu Baomei nodded approvingly, "Yes, then endure it for a few more days!" ”
"Aunt Baomei, is there anything wrong with yesterday's meal?" Mu Jiaojiao held a paintbrush and sketched lines on the paper at random.
"It doesn't feel like it's the same as it was a few days ago, but I can't tell you exactly what's different." Zhu Baomei thought about it carefully, "By the way, that fish-flavored crispy tofu, I have eaten Lianwa before, and it is not so sweet." I don't know if she improved the recipe and did it on purpose. Otherwise, she simply asked the chef in the restaurant to do it. ”
Mu Jiaojiao changed to a new piece of drawing paper and picked up the pencil again.
The tip of the pen moved twice around the paper, but it did not fall.
She withdrew her hand, turned her head to look at Zhu Baomei, lowered her voice and opened her mouth mysteriously, "I think it's very likely that Lianwa didn't come yesterday!" Her dishes will be more delicate and have a more layered taste. And yesterday's dish was a lot worse, not a stall. ”
Zhu Baomei's fan suddenly stopped in the air, "Didn't come?" Something must be wrong, right? ”
Mu Jiaojiao shook her head thoughtfully, "When Gao Le came to deliver the meal in the evening, you pulled him out and asked him secretly." ”
"Okay! I'll ask Kodaka! Zhu Baomei pondered for a while and felt that there should be no problem.
Even if something goes wrong, Lianwa will definitely be able to handle it.
She relaxed her heart and leisurely shook the big pu fan again.
Mu Jiaojiao's bangs were gently raised by the wind blowing by the fan, and she took the pen and began to paint.
After a while, a few budding lotus flowers jumped on the paper.
Old Man Mu and his wife stood in front of the window, looking at their granddaughter who was sitting in the courtyard with their eyes down and painting for a long time.
"Jiaojiao's sketches are really good, and the ink paintings are also very good." Mrs. Mu smiled faintly, "Much more powerful than me." ”
"It's a pity that she doesn't want to study architecture." Old Man Mu shook his head slowly, with a disappointed expression, "Jiaojiao is the most talented child in our family." She has strong observational skills, rich spatial imagination, solid basic skills, good learning of history and geography, enough brain, and can sit on the bench. However, why is her resistance to architectural design so great?! After all these years, I still can't understand it! ”
Mrs. Mu sighed lightly, "Maybe we pushed too hard and backfired." ”
"I can't bear such a little pressure, so what can I do!" Old Man Mu looked angry, turned around with his sleeves, walked to a chair with a carved dragon and phoenix and sat down.
"Everyone's way of life is different...... Mrs. Mu brewed two cups of tea and put them on the table, and sat down next to her wife, "I came here this time, and I thought a lot." Haizhen, it's time for us to change our way of living. ”
Old Man Mu raised his eyebrows, and his tone was slightly disdainful, "You're a lot older, what kind of way to live?!" ”
"It's because I'm getting older that I have to change my way of living! Think about it, the loess is buried to the neck, how many years can we live? It's time to enjoy life, too! ”
Mrs. Mu pushed the teacup to her wife's hand and persuaded softly: "When you drink tea, don't think about anything, drink tea with peace of mind, and have a good rest." ”
Old Man Mu took two sips of the teacup, and then smiled self-deprecatingly, "When I was drinking tea, I was still thinking about the textbook I was compiling, and I couldn't stop for a moment in my head. ”
"So your sleep quality has been getting worse and worse lately, and your blood sugar and lipids are high again, right? I see you, as soon as autumn arrives, you will have a serious illness. Mrs. Mu shook her head helplessly, was silent for a few seconds, and then said, "Let Xiao Gao get some ginseng for you to eat!" One a day, this autumn and winter should be better. ”
Old Man Mu snorted, "What good ginseng can there be here!" ”
"That's not necessarily, you look at the dishes sent by Xiao Gao, they look good, the meat and fish look quite fresh." Mrs. Mu took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "They must have a channel to buy ingredients, otherwise how did they get so many limited supplies!" ”
Old Man Mu pursed his lips indifferently, "You care so much!" It's delicious. ”
"I don't know if it's Xiao Gao himself or his sister who is in charge. However, the sister and brother don't look like each other at all. ”
Mrs. Mu slapped her thighs to invigorate the blood, and said unhurriedly: "Recently, I have been walking around the neighborhood and have not seen that girl once. There was no place for her to set up a stall to sell sour plum soup before, you say it's strange! ”
Old Man Mu pinched his eyebrows, closed his eyes, and said leisurely: "Didn't you ask Xiao Gao?" He won't say anything, so let's not be so curious, who doesn't have any privacy! ”
Mrs. Mu nodded, "Hmm......"
"You're almost rested, aren't you?" Old Man Mu moved his buttocks, a little unable to sit still, "Time is very tight, I will send the compiled textbooks over next week, and you will correct it for me in a while!" ”
"Wait a minute!" Mrs. Mu stopped her wife, "I still haven't finished speaking!" ”
"The old woman just loves to nag!" Old Man Mu muttered impatiently, but he still sat upright and looked at Mrs. Mu, "Say, what's the matter?" ”
"Jiaojiao gave birth to a child this time and suffered a big sin. I think she is injured, and she may not be able to raise her well for a few years. Let's just let her go! Mrs. Mu said in a consultative tone.
Old Man Mu frowned, "I'll talk about this later!" ”
"......" Mrs. Mu was stunned and didn't say more.
Old Man Mu walked briskly towards the study with his hands behind his back, and halfway he thought of something, suddenly stopped, turned his head and said, "The level of yesterday's food has dropped a lot, you remind Xiao Gao to make them more serious." Then you ask if they can get ginseng. If you have, you will make nine of them every day at noon. ”
Mrs. Mu sat still, lowered her head and drank tea slowly, and replied casually, "I know."
There were ten people eating, and I had to make nine.
How undesirable is this woman who Jiaojiao brought over......
This person is getting older, and he is really getting more and more cautious!
She saw that Zhu Baomei was very good to Jiaojiao, and she was frank and sincere, and she had no bad intentions.
"I say, old woman! So a few sips of tea, haven't you finished drinking it yet? Come over and check the manuscript for me! Old Man Mu shouted in the other room with his throat pulled his throat and shouted from afar.
Mrs. Mu smiled bitterly and put down the teacup, "Don't rush!" Come on! ”
