Chapter 3 Returning to the Door
Lin Jiannan's work efficiency is extremely high.
The next day, the chef came, and when Mu Yishi got up, breakfast was on the table.
A chef is a chef, and the combination of color and nutrition makes people particularly appetizing when they look at it.
The chef, an aunt in her 50s, wearing an apron and a pair of glasses, introduced herself.
"Hello Mrs., I'm a new chef, my name is Qin Ying"
Such a respectful tone made Mu Yishi a little uncomfortable.
Although she was born between wealth and nobility, the maid in the family was also a friend of her father, so they got along like relatives.
And she doesn't have the pampering of the eldest lady.
"Hello, my name is Mu Yishi"
"Madam, eat it while it's hot!" She said, pointing to the food on the table
Mu Yishi looked at the breakfast in front of him, there were light porridge, soup dumplings, soy milk, bread, and various snack platters.
Can she eat so much alone?
As if seeing her doubts, Qin Ying explained
"Madam, I came on the first day today, I don't know what you like, so I prepared some"
"By the way, do you have any taboos or foods that you particularly like to eat, ma'am?"
"No, I can do it, just be light"
"Yes, ma'am"
Qin Ying served her a bowl of porridge, set up the dishes and chopsticks, and served her respectfully, making Mu Yishi very uncomfortable, it felt like she was performing and eating, and Qin Ying was the audience.
She thinks that in the TV series, they are all acting, and in this new era of the 21st century, even if it is a nanny or chef hired by the family, everyone's status is equal.
Cooking is meant to be eaten together.
Mu Yishi took two bites and put it down.
Qin Ying saw Mu Yishi put down the spoon, thinking that it was unappetizing
"Ma'am, is it unpalatable? Whatever you want to eat, I'll get it for you now."
"No," Mu Yishi hurriedly explained
"Sit down and eat together! So much, I can't eat it all by myself."
"Madam, I've already eaten it, it's all for you," as if she was uncomfortable
"Madam, you eat first, I'll go prune the flowers outside"
Mu Yishi was puzzled
"Aren't chefs just cooking? Why do you have to prune the flowers and plants."
"That's right, ma'am, my husband doesn't like to have too many people in the house, so he only invited me alone"
"Oh!"
"Madam, Mr. said, you wait for him at home after eating, and he will come back to pick you up" Qin Ying remembered Shi Mo's instructions in the morning and said.
"Yes"
――
After Shi Mo participated in the groundbreaking ceremony of the "Time Paradise" project, because Lin Jiannan stayed in place of him to accompany the partner for dinner, he had to drive back by himself.
As soon as he entered the door, Mu Yishi had also packed up and was coming down the stairs.
Seeing him come back and thinking that they were going back together, she couldn't help but start to get nervous.
"You, you.. It's back."
"Well" he was lying on his stomach and was about to change his shoes, and when he saw that she had already packed up, he felt that there was no need to change his shoes.
"Then let's go!"
"Well" she followed him unhurriedly, and only realized it when she saw him open the co-pilot's door and motioned for her to sit in.
"Do you drive?"
Shi Mo bypassed the body, sat in the driver's seat, fastened his seat belt, and started the car.
before answering Mu Yishi
"Jiannan is on a business trip today"
"Oh!"
There was Lin Jiannan in the car before, and the atmosphere was not very harmonious, but fortunately, it was not so embarrassing.
So along the way, Shi Mo drove quietly, and Mu Yishi had to stare at the road in front of him, and his expression was more serious than that of Shi Mo who was driving.
Fortunately, her family is not very far away, and there is no traffic jam at this point in time, and it will take half an hour to arrive.
As soon as the car stopped, my father greeted me.
Mu Yishi saw her father coming over with a smile, and a sad emotion surged in her heart, which turned into tears and crackling
"Daddy."
She threw herself into her father's arms, like a coquettish who was wronged when she was a child
"Why are you still like a child when you get married" Mu Zhenhua seemed reproachful, but his tone was loving and tight.
He comforted his daughter while inserting tears: "Okay, stop crying.."
"Come on, Mom and Mom Zhang have already prepared your favorite dish for you" Mu Zhenhua patronized and comforted his daughter, completely forgetting his son-in-law.
It was Uncle Zhang who helped Shi Mo to bring in the trunk and the gifts back to the door.
Shi Mo, the man of the year in the shopping mall, was completely ignored in the Mu family.
Mu Yishi is not only a princess held in the palm of her hand by the Mu family, but also the sunshine of his life.
He is different from her, she exists in the day, is warmed by the sun, while he exists in the dark, is surrounded by the night, like a ghost in the dark, floating around.
This is the first time Shi Mo has been in such a family atmosphere.
Mu's mother, who was busy in the kitchen, heard that her daughter was back, and came out before she could take off her apron and take the shovel that was stir-frying.
The moment "Mom" Mu Yishi saw her mother, she was like a child who hadn't seen her mother for a few days, and suddenly threw herself into her mother's arms, looking for a long-lost sense of security.
"Shishi, it's good to come back" Mu's mother felt guilty and blamed herself, her daughter was only 20 years old but had to make sacrifices for the family, and she was powerless as a mother, so in the past two days, she didn't dare to call her daughter, knowing that she should go back to the door today, and accompany Zhang's mother to buy vegetables and cook early in the morning, so that she could feel better.
"Shishi, you go upstairs to see grandpa first, I'll cook this dish and start the meal" Although Mu's mother missed her daughter very much, because she was holding a shovel in her hand and there were vegetables stir-fried in the pot, she could only be separated first.
When Mu Yishi was about to go upstairs to see her grandfather, her father suddenly stopped Shi Mo and asked him to accompany Mu Yishi to see her grandfather.
――
They went to Grandpa's room and saw the door open, but they didn't see Grandpa.
Mu Yishi took Shi Mo to the study and didn't see his grandfather, so he thought that his grandfather should be in the tea room.
Sure enough, when I walked to the door, I smelled the fragrance of tea wafting out of it
"Grandpa."
"Why are you drinking tea and playing chess here alone!"
An old man with gray temples sat in the middle of the tea set and drank tea leisurely, playing chess, the water in the teapot was gurgling hot, and there was still half-drunk tea in the teacup next to him.
When he saw his granddaughter return, his happy eyes bloomed.
"Shishi, you're back, come on, see what's next" he looked at the chessboard on the coffee table next to him
"Grandpa.. Why don't you let Dad accompany you! ”
"Hmph, with his chess skills, he can't pass 10 moves in my hands" It's not that Mu Zhenhua doesn't accompany him, it's that Mu Shan doesn't look down on his chess skills, so it's better to play against himself.
"Your chess skills are many times better than his"
Mu Yishi's chess skills were taught by his grandfather, and when he didn't live in school, he would accompany his grandfather to play a game when he came back from school, and later came back every week to accompany him to play a game when he lived in school.
Therefore, in the process of long-term tempering, Mu Yishi's chess skills are getting better and better, and she even defeated her grandfather once or twice.
"I haven't broken this game for a long time," Mu Shan looked at the few chess pieces left in the chessboard mountain.
"You both come and have a look"
Shi Mo didn't know how to play chess, so he didn't speak.
Mu Yishi walked in and watched for a few minutes, and sorted out the entire chess game.
He pondered carefully before speaking
"Grandpa, if you fill this horse in your heart, won't Baizi live?"
Mu Shan followed Mu Yishi's meaning, filled the horse in the heart of the image, and the situation immediately turned, and Bai Zi, who was almost unable to form an army, suddenly came back to life.
And no matter how the sunspots are blocked, they will be one step later in the end.
Mu Shan tried to fill the car in the heart, but in this way, Bai Zi couldn't hold on to a few steps, and only the horse could win a step by filling in the heart, and the defeat turned into victory.
"Shishi, this move is too high" Mu Shan had to look at him with admiration, he thought about the chess game all morning, and was broken by his granddaughter in a few minutes.
"It's not good that grandpa taught it" Seeing that grandpa was about to get up, Mu Yishi immediately went over to help
"Grandpa, slow down"
"Grandpa is old, and his head and energy are not good"
"Where! , Grandpa should be strong and strong, and he will live a long life? ”
"Just your sweet mouth, you coax me to be dizzy one day" Mu Shan looked at the only baby granddaughter who grew up with him, his eyes were full of spoiling.
By the time they helped Grandpa downstairs, the food was already on the table.
At this time, Shi Mo had the opportunity to say hello to the elders one by one.
Throughout the meal, everyone's attention was focused on Mu Yishi.
And the result of this is that the dishes in Mu Yishi's bowl are like a small mountain, and Shi Mo doesn't even have a chance to give her the dishes.
"Enough is enough.. Enough" Although Mu Yishi kept shouting that she couldn't finish eating, she still couldn't stop her mother from sandwiching another piece of fish for her.
"Shishi, come here this is your favorite sweet and sour fish"
"Mom, I can't eat so much even if I die" Mu Yishi couldn't help but look at the two dishes in front of her.
"Phew.. What is not dead, how unlucky"
"How much can you eat, mom who can't finish eating"
Mu Yishi looked at Shi Mo, who had been eating with his head down, and gave him some of his own dishes
"Don't you mind, that's how our family eats"
As soon as Mu Yishi said this, everyone remembered the son-in-law in front of them.
Mu Zhenhua reacted first, stood up and went to the wine cabinet to get a bottle of wine
"Son-in-law, can I call you that?" Although he is an elder, he still feels that he lacks confidence in the matter of his daughter's marriage.
Shi Mo stood up and said respectfully, "Dad, it should be"
Zhang's mother also went to the kitchen to get 4 wine glasses and poured wine into each glass.
Mu Zhenhua put the least cup in front of Mu Shan
"Today is the day when our Mu family's daughter returns home, you can have a drink too!"
Mu Shan, who smelled the aroma of wine, immediately came to his senses, but when he saw that there was only a small half glass of wine, he was unhappy again, but he was helpless.
A small half cup is better than nothing, and it can relieve cravings a little.
Because Mu Shan is old, his blood pressure is too high, and his heart is not good, he is very strict in controlling his drinking.
gave Shi Mo another full cup, and he and Uncle Zhang each had a cup and a half
"We're all older, so let's drink less, so you can drink a little with a few of our old men."
"Okay, Dad, I'll do it myself" Shi Mo's attitude towards the Mu family was not slacking off because of his identity.
On the contrary, it was the people of the Mu family who were snubbing him.
Shi Mo didn't care.
Three rounds of drinking
"Dad, this glass of wine, I salute you, thank you for your willingness to marry Shishi to me" Shi Mo stood up and raised his glass sincerely.
There was no flaw in his sincere eyes, as if Mu Yishi was the Snow White he was willing to dream of.
The people at the table understood why they got married.
Mu Yishi thought, why did he start talking nonsense before he drank much, his alcohol consumption was so bad.
Mu Zhenhua was also a little confused by his inexplicable behavior
"Oh~~ It's good to have a good poem in the future"
"Dad, definitely" The eyes were firm, and even Mu Yishi doubted that he really loved her.
"Dad, I fell in love with Shishi the first time I saw her, he was innocent, cute, kind, and the best girl I have ever seen in my life" He leaned down to look at her side face, the heat flowing above her head, and some wine smelled.
"So, I'm going to be fine. Love her so well.. To her" he said extremely seriously, as if he were making a promise.
These ordinary words, when they came out of his mouth, seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and everyone was convinced.
In this room, except for Mu Yishi and Shi Mo, there are some people who are over half a hundred years old, and they always have some experience in looking at problems and things.
That's why they agreed to marry him their pearl in the first place.
"Grandpa, I wish you a long life and a hundred years old" He saluted Mu Shan again
Then there is Uncle Zhang, who is polite and thoughtful to every elder, so that people can't find a single flaw.
