Chapter 169: Dogs that bite don't bark much
Gu Xiaoqi stood at the top of the stairs and waited for a while, but he didn't see the man catch up.
In the downstairs room, Jenny's eyes were filled with joy that could not be concealed.
"Liancheng, you ......" Jenny didn't seem to believe her eyes, Mu Liancheng really stayed for her.
Originally, Mu Liancheng was still embarrassed because of his "rash actions", but looking at Jenny's flattered appearance, it can be regarded as satisfying his man's self-esteem.
Immediately, Mu Liancheng said gently and affectionately: "You haven't eaten for a day, how can I rest assured." ”
As he spoke, Mu Liancheng called Wang Ma and brought the prepared meal into the room.
Although Wang Ma was a hundred unwilling, she still had to listen to Mu Liancheng's words.
Indifferently put the bowl in front of Jenny, and Wang Ma turned her head and left.
Jenny was proud at this time, didn't this old woman embarrass her and humiliate her at noon, why did she stop the fire now and didn't dare to say a word.
But Jenny just coaxed Mu Liancheng to stop, and she didn't want to be too deliberate.
However, some "reasonable" requirements still need to be made.
For example-
"Mother Wang, I have an upset stomach, can you help me cook some red date soup?"
Wang's mother was already in charge of the diet here, so naturally she couldn't say no.
But as soon as the jujube soup was brought over, Jenny only sniffed it, and put it aside in disgust.
"Mother Wang, what did you put in this soup?"
Wang's mother was already unhappy, and she was even more impatient at this time.
"What's wrong?"
As long as Wang Ma is not feeling well, Jenny is happy.
She said arrogantly: "I don't like to eat ginger, why do you still put ginger in the jujube soup!" ”
It's really that Wang Ma didn't pay attention.
Because Gu Xiaoqi is weak, sometimes during the menstrual period, Wang's mother will cook her ginger and red date soup.
This time, it was also a quick hand, and I grabbed a few slices of ginger.
It's not a big deal.
Mu Liancheng waved his hand at Wang Ma, "Okay, let's go cook another bowl, remember not to put ginger." ”
Wang Ma had no choice but to go out with a bowl, and this time she was very careful, only red dates and rock sugar were put in the soup.
But Jenny could still pick the bone out of the egg.
"Mother Wang, I know you don't like me, but you don't need to hurt me!" Jenny pointed to the tiny black float in the bowl with a look of grievance.
And she not only said that Wang Ma, but also pulled this matter on Gu Xiaoqi.
"You hate me for Gu Xiaoqi, and target me everywhere, I can bear it. But Wang Ma, Liancheng is the master of this family, can you not embarrass him? ”
After listening to Jenny's words, Wang's mother almost had a crooked nose.
What makes her embarrassed Mu Liancheng.
I'm afraid it's too late for her to feel distressed.
To put it mildly, in this room, except for Gu Xiaoqi, she is the most attentive to Mu Liancheng.
Wang Ma's stubborn temper also came, "Jenny, you make it clear, how can I embarrass the ninth master." ”
"You are going against me for Gu Xiaoqi, aren't you embarrassing Liancheng?"
"You don't talk nonsense, I just can't get used to you......"
"That's it!" Before Wang Ma finished speaking, she was interrupted by Mu Liancheng.
In the eyes of Mu Liancheng at this moment, Wang Ma is naturally no match for Jenny.
So he said to Wang Ma very sternly: "There are some things that you can't manage, do your part, go, cook some red date soup, don't do anything crooked." ”
Wang's mother's eyes were red at that time.
She has been in the Mu family for almost thirty years, and Mu Liancheng has always respected her and never said such a thing.
Wang Ma held back her tears and nodded.
At the same time, she kept telling herself that she was a servant, so why meddle.
A few years ago, the ninth master had treated her very favorably.
Although she thought so, Wang Ma was still very sad.
In this way, she wiped her tears while working in the kitchen.
The other servants saw it and persuaded them a few words, but they didn't say much.
After all, Jenny is a woman from Mulian City.
Gu Xiaoqi doesn't care, where do they have the right to speak.
It was also a coincidence that when Wang Ma came out of the kitchen, she collided with Gu Xiaoqi, who came downstairs to find something.
"Mother Wang?" Xiaoqi's sharp eyes noticed that something was wrong with Wang's mother, and she walked over with concern, "What's wrong?" ”
"No, it's fine." Wang's mother lowered her head in a panic, not wanting Gu Xiaoqi to find out that something was wrong with her.
Gu Xiaoqi didn't want to ask too much, just thought that there was any trouble in Wang's mother's house.
But she took her things and was just about to go upstairs.
I heard Jenny's caustic voice coming from the room downstairs.
"Wang Mom, you, are you looking forward to my child being gone, how can you be so vicious!"
Kid, gone?
Gu Xiaoqi felt that the matter was a bit big, hesitated again and again, and went to the source of the sound.
In Jenny's room, the door was open.
Inside, Wang's mother had an ugly face, but she didn't say a word.
Jenny on the other side pointed to the bowl on the table, menacing.
And Mu Liancheng patted Jenny's back soothingly, it seemed that he was standing on Jenny's side.
Then, Gu Xiaoqi listened to Jenny and Mu Liancheng propose: "Liancheng, such a vicious woman, can't she be allowed to stay, otherwise what if she has bad intentions towards our children one day?" ”
This is a great injustice.
Wang's mother is usually the most amiable, but she doesn't even have an idea of this kind of thing.
Wang Ma really explained anxiously: "Miss Jenny, don't spew blood, although my wife is not a big person, she doesn't do anything bad." ”
"Hehe, people now, they don't know their hearts."
The wind on Jenny's pillow blew hard, and Mu Liancheng's eyes became colder and colder as she looked at Wang Ma.
"Mother Wang, you're old, it's time to go back to retire." 、
"Ninth Master, are you trying to drive me away?" Wang Ma was shocked in disbelief.
I think she was rescued by Old Man Mu at the beginning, worked as an errand in the old house, and later took care of Mu Liancheng's daily life.
When it comes to her feelings for the Mu family, she is no worse than anyone else.
Even in order to take care of this family, Wang's mother has not even married, and she has been alone for so many years.
Now Mu Liancheng let her go.
She's getting old, where can she go?
Wang Ma immediately compromised, and she bent down in front of Jenny.
"Miss Jenny, it's all my fault, you have a lot of them, don't be like me. I, I'll go and make you a new bowl. ”
Wang Ma's eyes were red and she went to get the bowl.
Jenny didn't know if it was intentional, but suddenly the house was crooked and hit Wang Ma.
Wang's mother didn't stand firmly, and she spilled it directly.
The freshly made red date soup, although it was left for a while, was still piping hot.
If it weren't for the fact that Wang Ma was still wearing an apron, she would definitely be burned now.
Still, her hand was not spared.
The wrinkled old skin immediately became red and swollen.
Jenny stood next to her and said unapologetically, "I'm really sorry, I haven't eaten for a day, and I'm a little unsteady on my feet." ”
Seeing this, Mu Liancheng just handed the chopsticks back to Jenny's hand without asking Wang's mother.
Gu Xiaoqi outside the door was so angry that the green tendons on his head were about to burst out.
Jenny, a coward who bullies the soft and is afraid of the hard, otherwise she will deliberately bully an old man if she conflicts with her.
What's even more infuriating is that Mu Liancheng at this time is so indulgent to Jenny.
Gu Xiaoqi rushed in with the things in his hand.
"Mom Wang, are you okay?" Gu Xiaoqi cared about Wang Ma for the first time, and then took Wang Ma into the bathroom as if no one was around, and washed cold water.
Then he took the medicine box and smeared the medicine.
"Be careful not to get wet at night, and I'll have someone take you to the hospital tomorrow."
Wang Ma was moved, and her tears couldn't stop flowing.
Jenny on the side pursed her lips disdainfully.
However, she still felt frightened when she looked at the things Gu Xiaoqi brought in.
Who knows what Gu Xiaoqi will do with a baseball bat if he doesn't sleep at night.
Jenny leaned towards Mu Liancheng, and Mu Liancheng was no better than her.
He didn't know why, he always felt frightened when he looked at Gu Xiaoqi.
Originally, in his impression, Mu Liancheng's identity should be very noble, even Gu Xiaoqi should listen to him and be controlled by him.
But why, now everything is different.
Everything was reversed.
Gu Xiaoqi is not gentle or considerate at all, and will only be aggressive all day long.
If it weren't for her pregnancy, he really didn't want to compromise.
For the current Mu Liancheng, he doesn't like Jenny much, but next to Jenny, he is like a man and lives with dignity.
Therefore, Mu Liancheng is very conflicted.
On the one hand, every cell of his is telling him to like Gu Xiaoqi, be good to her, and be good to her children.
On the other hand, he couldn't control himself and desperately wanted to escape from Gu Xiaoqi.
Just like now, he knew that he should immediately go to Gu Xiaoqi's side, help her, and coax him and her.
But the eyes are full of reluctance.
Gu Xiaoqi didn't care.
She dealt with Wang's mother's injury, and then she had the time to clean up the initiator.
"Jenny, you seem to have taken my words for granted." Gu Xiaoqi's tone could be called calm.
But Jenny couldn't help but shudder.
She said stiffly: "I, I just asked her to cook me some soup, what's wrong!" ”
"What's wrong?"
Gu Xiaoqi sneered, worried about the baseball bat in his hand and said, "You homeless man who has nowhere to go, why should you order me!" ”
"Your people?" Jenny turned her head in surprise to look at Mu Liancheng.
Mu Liancheng looked at her and didn't speak.
Gu Xiaoqi just relied on this Mu Liancheng to know nothing about many things, so he just wanted to talk nonsense with his eyes open.
It is estimated that even if she said it now, Mu Liancheng had actually left the Mu family a long time ago, and the imposter in front of her would believe it.
That's why Gu Xiaoqi is so fearless.
Because of her and Shen Nan's presence, this person can't toss any storms.
It's just that Gu Xiaoqi forgot that sometimes dogs bite people and can't kill people, but it is enough to bite a few bites desperately.
If you are unlucky, you may even get rabies.
Moreover, this dog is likely to be very well-behaved and does not look like it will bite at all.
