Chapter 164: Seven Years
Since the "First Demon Killing" incident, Mu Fei has wilted all of a sudden.
Li Jing will come to see him from time to time, the two children are too good now, they have to go to each other's house to play until dark every day after school, and the parents on both sides naturally know each other.
Although Li Jing's father, Li Qien, said that he would not let them play game consoles, every time Mu Fei came to play at home, he turned a blind eye and let them play.
Li Jing felt incredible about this, why couldn't he play game consoles if he wanted to, and Mu Fei didn't care about his father when he came?
How did she know what Li Qiuen was thinking?
It's just that his daughter is a monster, and Li Zhuen doesn't care too much about the difference between shemales, otherwise he wouldn't have married Li Jing's mother. The key is that this girl is too tricky, since she went to kindergarten, Li Qiuen has to go to school to apologize at the end of three days - because Xiao Li Jing always bullies other children, it is already common to cry a few children every day, which makes Li Qiuen have a headache.
Li Qiuen has always been worried about his daughter's growth, but he doesn't know how to educate and persuade his own unruly little princess. So when Li Qiuen saw Li Jing leading Mu Fei home to play for the first time, and introduced "This is my good friend" obediently and nervously, he was really shocked that his jaw was about to drop.
When Mu Fei was there, the girl in her house was like a different person. Not only is he not noisy, noisy, or petty, but he also takes the initiative to serve tea and water to the guests, and when he speaks, he is even more soft-spoken, which is so gentle that Li Douen is a little panicked in his heart.
And after more contact, Li Zhuen found that Mu Fei's character as an honest child was very much in line with his heart, Li Qiuen liked Mu Fei indescribably, sometimes he was thinking that if his girl was going to marry in the future, this honest little guy was a good candidate - no, in the current situation, Mu Fei is simply the only candidate!
It's rare for a human child that Li Jing likes to appear, and Li Qiuen has already named him as his future son-in-law in his heart, isn't it just playing game consoles? Mu Fei likes to play, so naturally let him play well.
As for Mu Fei's family, Mu Geng naturally welcomes Mu Fei's friends, and Wen Qiao has also let down her guard against Li Jing, every time she comes to play, Wen Qiao will also deliberately cook a table of dishes, among which there will definitely be a braised chicken - foxes love chicken!
Yes, Wen Qiao learned to cook.
Over the years, Wen Qiao has long been no longer the Heavenly Dao cultivator who didn't know any housework - when they wanted to be together, Mu Geng's family strongly objected, so Mu Geng broke off relations with his family. is no longer the young master of the Mu family, Mu Geng naturally has to make money to support his family, and he works hard every day. In order to take care of her husband and son, Wen Qiao learned housework from scratch.
The peerless fairy who used to have ten fingers that did not touch the spring water and only sought the avenue was no longer the two short knives that were as clear as water in his hands. One hand is the pots and pans, the other hand is the dirty and torn clothes of two men in the family, in the smoke of the kitchen, in the dust of the living room floor, in the life of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, Wen Qiao has transformed into an ordinary housewife.
The only thing that remains unchanged is her always gentle smiling face, and her quiet and peaceful temperament.
Every time she looked at the smiling faces of her husband and son, Wen Qiao felt that her original choice was not wrong.
The days are like flowing water, and the blink of an eye is a year.
Mu Fei is seven years old, and his birthday is two months away, the fifteenth day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar.
This year has been very peaceful, since that demon killing, Mu Fei has never encountered a monster again, and his life has returned to normal.
On this day, Li Jing came to play with Mu Fei again after school.
"Huh? Car? Li Jing stopped in front of Mujia Lane and saw a luxury car parked at the entrance of the alley from a distance.
At that time, although there were more cars, they were still rare. Especially this kind of luxury car, which is not cheap at first glance, Li Jing is the first time to see this brand of car in Akiyama.
"Why is the rich man's car parked here?" Li Jingzheng was looking curiously, and suddenly saw two big men in black suits standing at the door of Mu Fei's house, and couldn't help but be stunned: "Guests?" Mu Fei still has such rich friends at home? ”
She trotted towards the old mansion, but was stopped by the two big men reaching out.
"What are you doing?" Li Jing said unhappily.
The two big men shouted, "Who are you! You are not allowed to go in here, you have to play somewhere else! ”
Li Jing's face sank, and she shouted into the courtyard, "Auntie? Are you at home? It's me! ”
"That's Li Jing, Mu Fei's friend." Wen Qiao's voice came from the courtyard, but today's aunt's voice seemed to be very low, as if she was a daughter-in-law who had met her mother-in-law.
An elderly woman's voice came: "It's Mu Fei's friend, then invite her in." ”
The two big men got out of the way.
Li Jing entered the door and saw Wen Qiao standing in the courtyard with a smile, and beside her, an old lady who was dressed very well was sitting on a bamboo chair and talking to Wen Qiao.
Wen Qiao beckoned to Li Jing and said with a smile: "Jingjing come here, call grandma." ”
Li Jing saw that this old lady's identity was a little special, and even her aunt became low-voiced beside her, and she had to call her grandma herself...... Could it be Uncle Mu Geng's mother? That is, Mu Fei's grandmother?
The little fox's brain turned very fast, and he was busy showing a well-behaved appearance, nodding softly and laughing: "Grandma is good." ”
The old lady looked at Li Jing with some surprise, this little girl was so cute, so cute that she liked it at a glance.
"It's really good, is it called Li Jing?"
"Yes."
"How old are you this year?"
"Eight years old."
The old lady held Li Jing's hand and said with a smile: "One year older than my Mu Fei." Haha, that's fine, older women will take care of people. The first time we met, grandma gave you a red envelope. ”
Li Jing didn't understand the meaning of her words, what does it mean that older women can take care of people?
When she took the red envelope in a daze, the little girl was startled.
What a thick red envelope, the little girl's mind is spinning quickly, it won't all be a hundred yuan, right?
"Grandma, I can't ask for it!" Li Jing hurriedly made a gesture of shirk and returned the red envelope.
The old lady smiled, stuffed the red envelope into Li Jing's pocket, and said in an unquestionable tone: "How can I get back the things I gave out?" ”
Wen Qiao also smiled: "Jingjing, grandma gave it to you, you can take it." ”
Li Jing nodded.
The old lady smiled with satisfaction and winked at Wen Qiao.
Wen Qiao nodded and said, "Your uncle went to pick up Mu Fei from school, and he will come back in a while." Let's go to the room first. ”
"Okay." Li Jing walked into the room and took out the red envelope to take a look.
"Wow, it's really all a hundred!" She couldn't help but smack her tongue, this pile of banknotes is as thick as a brick, I'm afraid it has to be tens of thousands?
Where have children seen so much money, usually five or ten yuan is already a huge amount of money, and suddenly seeing this astronomical banknote, Li Jing was also stunned for a long time.
"Who is she? Is Mu Fei's grandmother so rich? ”
She hurried to the window and pricked up her ears to listen to the conversation between the aunt in the yard and the rich old woman.
……
"You drink tea." Wen Qiao respectfully handed over a cup of tea, but the other party smiled but did not answer.
It's still the same...... Wen Qiao sighed in her heart, but her face showed no flaws, she smiled and gently put the teacup on the coffee table, "It's a little hot, can you drink it after a while?" ”
The old lady sat on the bamboo chair on the ground, looked around the courtyard, and said with a smile: "This courtyard is old, and you don't spend money on repairing it." ”
Wen Qiao nodded and said, "It's a little old." I just bought a house in the south of the city, and I'm going to move in the next two days. ”
The old lady was slightly stunned and said, "What house did you buy?" ”
"Chengnan Flower Garden, the community designed and built by Mu Geng." Wen Qiao replied in a low voice, "Because it was a design drawing drawn by him, the developer gave a preferential price, which is not expensive." ”
"Not expensive?" The old lady laughed, "Of course you said it's not expensive, and it's not your money!" ”
This was said extremely harshly, Wen Qiao heard that the corners of his mouth were slightly bitter, but he was helpless: "Yes, it is all Mu Geng's money." ”
Who called the old lady in front of her Mu Geng's mother?
Old Madam Mu snorted, "I really don't understand what you're thinking! Isn't this alley all yours? Why didn't you sell the land when a developer wanted to acquire the land some time ago? This piece of land has been sold for tens of millions, so why have you been living such a hard life? ”
Wen Qiao said: "It's not that he didn't think about selling." It's just that this alley was left to him by Mu Geng's grandfather, and I told him that the old gentleman has lived here all his life, and he must have a special affection for this place. You are a grandson, you can't just sell Mujia Lane casually. ”
Old Madam Mu sneered: "You don't have to say this deliberately to please me, I don't want to eat you." ”
Wen Qiao said in a low voice: "The words are true, don't dare to deceive." ”
Old Madam Mu said again: "At the beginning, I persuaded Tiandao to leave this alley to Ah Geng, what I wanted was to let you have a place to rely on, but not to let you keep it to talk about your feelings!" ”
Wen Qiao also said: "We are doing well, we don't need to sell this Mujia Lane." ”
"How's it good?" Old Madam Mu Huo Ran got up, "Ah Geng has lived a young master's life since he was a child!" But since he married you, look at what he's doing! I really don't know what kind of magic you vixen used to fascinate my son! ”
"Don't be angry, drink tea and drink tea." Wen Qiao smiled and picked up the teacup, glanced inadvertently at the inside of the room, and said secretly in his heart: "I'm not a vixen, the one over there is." ”
Old Madam Mu took the teacup, glared at Wen Qiao, and then sat down.
"You're still like that." Old Madam Mu sighed, "No matter how bitter and mean I humiliate you, you will not lose your mind. ”
"You're his mother." Wen Qiao bowed and said, "I snatched your son, so naturally I can't be rude to you anymore." ”
Old Madam Mu squinted and said, "It's still the same unpleasant, if you were half as well-behaved as the girl just now, I would have accepted you a long time ago!" ”
Wen Qiao smiled and did not refute.
"You just said that Li Jing is Mu Fei's friend?" Old Madam Mu put on a smiling face and asked, "What is this girl's family background?" ”
Wen Qiao smiled: "They are still young, is it too early to talk about this?" ”
Old Madam Mu said dissatisfiedly: "I have to help him find a good marriage for my grandson in advance, and it is best to find a girl who he likes and I like." Don't be like Ah Geng, who was hooked by your vixen halfway! ”
Wen Qiao secretly rolled his eyes and said with a smile on his face: "What you said makes sense. ”
No matter how Mrs. Mu squeezed her in her words, she always greeted her with a smile, behaved decently and generously, neither humble nor arrogant, and couldn't find fault at all.
Looking at the woman in front of her, Old Madam Mu sighed slightly in her heart, and suddenly said: "Wen Qiao, to be honest, you are a woman who can't find fault." ”
Wen Qiao frowned slightly, looking at her inexplicably.
Old Madam Mu smiled: "If it weren't for the marriage contract with Lin Banxia in front of us, maybe we wouldn't have objected so fiercely to your marriage to Ah Geng." Your conduct and appearance are worthy of Ah Geng, but it's a pity that you are from a lower background. But it doesn't matter, the point is that Ah Geng likes you. ”
Wen Qiao lowered his head and was silent.
"After so many years, as long as you are willing to bow your head and call me Mom, and admit your ......mistake to me," said Mrs. Mu, "I will admit you!" ”
Wen Qiao raised his head, his gentle eyes were full of determination: "You are wrong. Mu Geng and I really love each other, and the people who obstruct it are you, why are we wrong? ”
When Old Madam Mu heard this, she sneered twice.
"Hehe, that's why I said you're just unlikable!" Old Madam Mu sighed helplessly and said, "Forget it, I'm old, I can't fight you." ”
Wen Qiao looked at her with some surprise.
Old Madam Mu smiled at her: "Mu Fei is my grandson after all, and he has the blood of my Mu family in his body!" I can't watch him suffer with you! ”
"What do you mean?"
"The master's side has also been deflated in the past two years, and the family business still has to be inherited by Ah Geng." Old Madam Mu squinted her eyes and said with a smile: "What's more, there is still Mu Fei?" Your mother is more precious than her son, and I don't want my grandson to hate me in the future. ”
"It's Mu Fei's birthday in two days, right? When the time comes, let Ah Geng take Mu Fei home for dinner. Old Madam Mu got up, "Just the two of them, you can enter the house again after a while." ”
Seeing Wen Qiao's unhappy face, Old Madam Mu smiled and said, "Although you are married, you are not recognized by us after all. If you want to enter the gate of the Mu family, I can't be so hasty when I am the daughter-in-law of the Mu family! ”
Wen Qiao was stunned.
"When Ah Geng comes back, I will let him marry you in style!" Old Madam Mu said, "Don't be surprised, I have seen you for the past seven years, and you have behaved well enough." ”
After saying that, she walked out of the courtyard with grace.
Wen Qiao hurriedly said: "Mu Geng and Xiao Fei will be back soon, don't you stay for a meal?" ”
"Nope." Old Madam Mu smiled, "Ah Geng doesn't want to see me, didn't I stay here to look for a face?" ”
Wen Qiao shook his head and said, "Mu Geng won't be like this." ”
"I don't understand my own son?" Old Madam Mu laughed, "Thank God if he doesn't hate me now, he must be dissatisfied with me." ”
……
"Mom really said that?"
Sitting at the dinner table, Mu Geng listened to Wen Qiao talk about his mother's coming over in the evening, and was a little stunned for a while.
"Yes." Wen Qiao nodded and said with a wry smile: "Brother Geng, your family is finally willing to accept me." ”
"Qiao'er......" Mu Geng frowned and said, "If you don't want to, we won't go back." ”
Wen Qiao's expression was slightly surprised, and he only heard Mu Geng say: "Even if my mother says so, you will definitely be coldly looked at by my family when you go back with me." I can't bear to let you be wronged. ”
"Brother Geng!"
"Qiao'er!"
Mu Fei and Li Jing sat aside, and Li Jing muttered in a low voice: "Your parents are so numb!" I can't stand it! ”
Mu Fei ate calmly and nodded, "They have always been like this." ”
Li Jing took out a red envelope, handed it to Mu Fei, and whispered, "Your grandmother gave it to me." ”
"Wow! So much money! Mu Fei looked at the red envelope in surprise and suspicion, "Who is grandma?" ”
Li Jing was stunned: "Your grandmother?" ”
Mu Fei shrugged his shoulders and said, "I haven't seen it." ”
"Okay." As clever as she was, she had roughly guessed what was going on in that conversation in the evening.
Looking at Mu Fei's reaction now, it seems that he doesn't know about the Mu family's affairs.
Li Jing grinned and said, "I didn't expect you to be a young master." ”
Mu Fei looked at her blankly: "What? ”
"Nothing!" Li Jing stuffed the red envelope into his pocket and said seriously: "This money is not allowed to be spent!" Hide it, and accidentally 'take' the red envelope out when you see your grandmother, understand? ”
"I don't understand ......"
"It's okay, I'll teach you then." Li Jing smiled thiefly, "This is a plus!" ”
"You're so weird!" Mu Fei frowned.
"Hey, hey." Li Jing stuck out her little tongue, glanced at Aunt Wen Qiao, and whispered: "Lessons from the future, take precautions!" ”
……
That night, instead of lying in front of his desk to sort out his pile of blueprints as usual, Mu Geng sat in the courtyard and smoked.
The moon is bright and the stars are scarce, and the breeze is coming.
"Mu Fei." He suddenly called Mu Fei and asked, "Do you want to see your grandparents?" ”
"Grandparents?" Mu Fei thought for a while and said, "Do I also have grandparents?" ”
Mu Geng nodded with a complicated expression.
"Okay!" Mu Fei clapped his hands and smiled, "It turns out that I also have grandparents!" That's great! ”
Looking at Mu Fei's happy appearance, Mu Geng couldn't help but smile guiltily.
"Let's go play."
Mu Fei took away, and Mu Geng lit another cigarette.
"Brother Geng." Wen Qiao didn't know when she walked behind him and hugged him gently, "I've smoked a pack of cigarettes tonight." ”
Mu Geng turned around and hugged her, and said, "Qiao'er...... I ......"
"It's fine." Wen Qiao snuggled into his arms and looked at the moon in the sky, "I will try my best to become a woman worthy of the title of daughter-in-law of the Mu family." ”
Mu Geng shook his head and smiled: "You were originally my daughter-in-law, what is not worthy?" ”
"Then, on the night of July 15, I took Mu Fei home."
"Yes." Wen Qiao nodded.
Looking up at the bright moon in the sky, she suddenly felt uneasy inexplicably, and her body trembled unconsciously.
"Qiao'er, are you not feeling well? Is it too cold outside? ”
"It's not ......" Wen Qiao was slightly shocked in her heart, the feeling just now ...... Is it a warning from the heart of the Dao?
He was obviously destroyed by the Twelve Heavenly Demons seven years ago, and his cultivation had long since fallen silent.
But the feeling just now is clearly a warning from the Dao heart, how can it be......
Seeing that Wen Qiao was shocked, Mu Geng patted her on the shoulder and whispered: "I've suffered you for so many years, don't think about anything, with me, I won't let you suffer the slightest grievance, don't worry." ”
Wen Qiao raised his head and smiled reluctantly.
Mu Geng smiled: "Qiao'er, I have made you suffer for seven years, and you can be a young grandmother in the future, haha." ”
"Brother Geng, how can I be a young grandmother......" Wen Qiao's face was slightly red, and he said with a shy head.
"It's been seven years...... Mu Geng sighed leisurely, "It's been seven years......"
"yes." Wen Qiao looked at Mu Fei who was playing in the yard and said with a smile: "It's so fast, it's been seven years before I know it." ”
