Chapter 154
Bai Siyu's face was smoking.
Shepherd Candle also coughed.
"Dad, I understand."
He quickly changed the subject: "Ayu and I will be back in two or three hours. Dad, how are you preparing the New Year's Eve dinner?"
"It's fine. This year's dishes are even richer than before. Don't worry, they are all the flavors that Master Bai likes."
“No peanuts.”
"I know. Ever since you first mentioned it, there are very few peanuts in our house!" Old Man Mu did not forget that Bai Siyu was allergic to peanuts.
"No, don't worry about me. I don't eat dishes with peanuts." Bai Siyu couldn't help but interject.
You can't stop others from eating peanuts just because he's alone. Just let him not eat dishes with peanuts.
Mr. Mu thought that Bai Siyu might be nearby, but he didn't expect that Mr. Mu would turn on the speakerphone!
Thinking of what he had asked his youngest son before, he suddenly choked up.
The air instantly fell into an eerie silence.
In the end, it was Master Mu who broke the silence first.
"Well, come back soon, everyone at home is waiting for you. I won't say more."
Mr. Mu hung up the phone.
Mu Changzhu looked at Bai Siyu who was standing next to him with an innocent look on his face, and couldn't help but hug him and kiss him.
Sorry, Dad, cough cough.
**
Mu Changzhu and Bai Siyu stayed together for a while, then asked the robot downstairs to bring two servings of shredded chicken and three-fresh noodle soup.
He checked and found that it is best to eat some porridge and noodle soup the next day to facilitate digestion.
But he tried to be gentle yesterday, maybe...
Ahem, A-Yu shouldn't be injured anywhere.
It would have been fine if he didn't smell it, but after he smelled it, Bai Siyu was so hungry that he finished a bowl in one gulp and still wanted to eat more.
The shepherd gave him some of his portion.
He had already eaten in the morning.
"Ayu, save some space. We'll go home to have New Year's Eve dinner tonight."
Bai Siyu nodded hurriedly, but the next second, his facial expression froze slightly, revealing a little embarrassment and shyness.
He broke the embarrassment in his mind.
Oh, billions of people know about it, and the Mu family must have known about it too... Just go, you will have to face it sooner or later!
However——
Should he also prepare some red envelopes or something?
After all, he is the lover of Pastor Changzhu, and Pastor Changzhu has several nephews and nieces, so he is also an elder!
Bai Siyu and Mu Changzhu stayed in the group center building until after five in the afternoon before they packed up and prepared to return to Mu's home.
Bai Siyu was holding a bag of newly drawn amulets and lucky charms, among which was a stack of money that he had just asked Du Wu to withdraw from the ATM.
As soon as he got in the car, Bai Siyu put the red envelopes brought by Du Wu on the seat, and then stuffed money and talismans into them one by one.
Originally, Bai Siyu wanted to give 10,000 yuan in a red envelope, but was stopped by Mu Changzhu.
He shook his head.
"Oh Yu, this is too much."
"But I saw on the Internet that rich people give out tens or even hundreds of thousands of yuan in New Year's red envelopes. I only gave 10,000 yuan, which is already very little." Bai Siyu looked into Mu Changzhu's eyes, "Changzhu, how much did your family give out in the past?"
"How much is the New Year's gift?"
Mu Changzhu smiled and gently kissed Bai Siyu on her lips.
"Don't worry about this, Yu. Your main mission this year is to earn red envelopes. You must earn red envelopes from my father, my brother, and my sister! Don't get it wrong, especially... don't get in the habit of flattering them."
Mu Changzhu spoke in a low and soft voice, with one hand around Bai Siyu's waist, almost pulling Bai Siyu into his arms. The old beast that had been frozen for twenty-eight years finally came out, and now she wished she could lock her young boyfriend to herself.
"Besides, giving them the talisman is already a great gift. It is so precious."
Bai Siyu smiled.
"This talisman doesn't take much effort, I just drew it casually."
"That's because you are very capable. If you release it, it will be extremely valuable to anyone. You can't underestimate its value just because you can draw it easily."
"Then.....then five thousand? Together with the talisman."
"Five thousand is a lot."
"It's too little to show off."
"Then I won't give you a cent." Pastor Candle only cared about his own child. "It's not easy for you to make money."
Bai Siyu couldn't help but let out a "puff" sound. He bit Mu Changzhu's chin and said, "If your nephews knew about this, they would definitely beat you up. How could there be an uncle like you?"
“They don’t dare.”
Bai Siyu couldn't stop laughing, but after thinking about it, he decided to take the advice of Pastor Changzhu. It would indeed seem strange if he gave less.
"Then give each person two talismans, a peace talisman and a lucky talisman, and put two in one red envelope."
After Bai Siyu made the decision, he lowered his head and started fiddling with the red envelopes. He originally thought that he could have a few extra ones left, but if he stuffed two into one red envelope, it might not be enough.
Mu Changzhu watched his own Ah Yu throbbing in his arms, sometimes putting red envelopes in it, sometimes wanting to draw two more pictures. The young man's fragrant body was alluring without him realizing it, and the fire in his body was about to be ignited.
He suppressed himself and couldn't help but increase the strength of his hands on Bai Siyu's waist.
Bai Siyu was pinched and immediately turned around, and saw Mu Changzhu's eyes had obviously changed color.
"!"
Bai Siyu glared at Mu Changzhu and said, "Don't make trouble."
He quickly ran to the other side: "I'm busy."
Shepherd Candle: “….”
I feel like my wife doesn't love me as much anymore.
Bai Siyu drew a few more talismans on the way, and then made a red envelope with two talismans, and gave one to Du Wu.
"Du Wu, this is your New Year's red envelope. I put it here for you." Bai Siyu smiled and put the red envelope on the small table next to the driver's seat. "I wish you a happy New Year!"
Du Wu had never expected that he would have a share. He was stunned for a second, his fingers stroking the steering wheel. His whole body felt as if it had been soaked in hot water. He was so moved that he didn't know what to say.
The ears are also a little red.
"Thank you, Master Bai. I, I really don't know how to thank you. You still..."
"Oh, you're welcome. You've been working hard all the time."
But that was his job and he was hired with a high salary.
Du Wu thought so, but in the end he said nothing.
He only decided that he must protect Master Bai well in the future.
Although Master Bai may not need it.
But he will try his best to complete all the tasks!!!
The traffic in Beijing is extremely congested today, and everyone is on their way back.
The journey that was supposed to take less than an hour took more than an hour and a half.
When they returned to Mu's house, the sky had turned dark. Sparse stars hung in the sky and the moon cast a hazy shadow. Mu Shengyan, who had rushed over from Country M, had not arrived yet. It was said that the plane was a little delayed and might not arrive until after nine o'clock in the evening.
Mu Changqing did not spend the New Year at the Mu family this year. Instead, he took Mu Tuantuan and two other children who were already attending an aristocratic boarding junior high school and whom Bai Siyu rarely saw, back to the Chen family.
She and her husband had agreed to take turns celebrating the New Year at the Mu family's home one year and at the Chen family's home the next.
Mu Changguo's wife was his first love when he was a student. She died in an accident eight years ago, and he has never found a second wife since then.
So now waiting in the brightly lit hall are Pastor Candle and Pastor Old Master Zi.
And the housekeeper and the servant.
When he saw Bai Siyu and Mu Changzhu coming back, Old Master Mu's face showed great joy and he looked visibly energetic.
"Why are you back so late? When I called you, didn't you say you would be back in two or three hours?"
"The company's affairs have not been dealt with yet, and the traffic jam has delayed it until now." Pastor Cang said with a smile.
He held Bai Siyu's hand, interlocking their fingers.
Master Mu looked at Bai Siyu, who was inexplicably nervous for a moment, his mind spinning: "Jinjin... I'm sorry to bother you during the New Year."
"Master Bai, what are you talking about? We are a family now." It was the first time that Old Man Mu saw Bai Siyu nervous, and he couldn't help laughing. He remembered that the child in front of him was wrapped up like a weirdo when he first came to the Mu family, but he was not stage fright at all.
"Dad, why are you still calling me Master Bai?" Mu Changguo, who was standing next to Grandpa Mu, was also helpless. Why didn't his father change the title back?
Mu Changguo looked at Bai Siyu gently and said, "Can we call you Xiaoyu from now on, or... Xiaobai?"
He always calls his second sister's husband Xiao Chen.
"You can call me anything you want." Bai Siyu felt a little hot. God, he had never encountered such a situation before!
How can an ugly daughter-in-law meet her parents-in-law... Bah, Pastor Candle is his daughter-in-law!
In the evening, he would bring the shepherd's candle and burn incense to his master.
You must kowtow three times!
The change of identity made some people feel a little unnatural at first, but they soon adapted to it naturally. Master Mu waved his hand and asked the kitchen to prepare the dishes.
As for Mu Shengyan, the eldest grandson...
Let’s not wait any longer. Anyway, we still have to stay up all night after the New Year’s Eve dinner, and then we still have to eat dumplings. It’s the same thing!
When Mu Shengyan came back exhausted, he saw his grandfather, father, and uncle playing mahjong with Master Bai as soon as he entered the hall.
In front of Master Bai was a small row of large red banknotes in stacks.
Looking towards the restaurant, it was obvious that the New Year's Eve dinner had already been eaten.
Mu Shengyan: “???”
Master Mu called out to Mu Shengyan: "Shengyan, hurry up and have your meal."
Then he continued to work hard and made a double cake.
"I'm listening!"
Bai Siyu quickly grabbed the second cake, his eyes sparkling: "Pong - I'm listening to the card too!"
He didn't expect it, he really didn't expect that mahjong would be so fun. Why didn't his master teach him before?
No, he'd better give out the lucky charms on him tomorrow, as he wants to play all night today!
Bai Siyu's luck seemed to be on fire. He won round after round. Soon, a pile of red hills formed on the table.
Mr. Mu almost lost all the New Year's money he was going to give to Mu Tuantuan and other children the day after tomorrow.
But he was always cheerful.
"If you can, you can take all the money."
"That's what you said, Dad." Mu Changzhu looked at Bai Siyu tenderly and handed a juicy orange to Bai Siyu's mouth: "Then Ayu and I will not be polite."
Bai Siyu accepted the feeding beautifully, holding her head high and chest out, and whispered to Mu Changzhu: "I want to win this round by myself (^-^ )"
Shepherd Candle: "Then touch it yourself!"
Mu Shengyan looked at the bustling living room and felt at a loss for the first time in his own home.
He touched his head.
I guess his family hasn't played mahjong for many years.
Amid the sound of mahjong being played round after round, the New Year countdown began on time.
After finishing his meal, Mu Shengyan also came to watch the game.
Mu Changguo was almost out of red envelopes, so he decisively pushed his son back into his seat.
"Come on, Sheng Yan, play a few games."
Mu Shengyan glanced at the IOU pressed in the corner: "......"
Dad, are you sure you don't want me to pay off your debts?
And don’t you still have money in your pocket? ! !
