Zhai Jiu walked in front carrying a big bag, and Mu Lianshen walked behind him holding a box.
Zhai Yumo took some odds and ends.
On the way, Zhai Jiu wanted to ask the guard at the door for help, but Mu Lianshen said, "You can't even do this. How long have you not exercised?"
Zhai Jiu rolled his eyes and laughed angrily, "What are you moving?"
"Let's switch..."
Mu Lianshen shook his head, "No, this is just some small brewed wine."
Zhai Jiu then said: "Give me three bottles, or I won't move..."
Mu Lianshen: "No, one bottle at most."
Zhai Jiu sneered and argued: "Three bottles"
"You can get two bottles at most,"
"Okay, deal,"
Zhai Yumo looked at the two elders bargaining and felt dazed for a moment.
"Dad, you're back?"
Fu Xiao heard the voice and came out. Seeing the big bag on Zhai Jiu's shoulder, he patted Shen Xingzhou next to him and said, "Go pick it up."
Shen Xingzhou walked forward and took the big bag. She walked over and pinched it, "Dad, what's in this big bag?"
Mu Lianshen withdrew his gaze from Shen Xingzhou and responded calmly: "Your third brother asked me to bring it here, I don't know what it is,"
Shen Xingzhou took the things from Zhai Yumo's hand and chuckled, "Thank you."
After putting the things aside, he walked over to Fu Xiao, ruffled her hair, and asked in a low voice: "Do you want to open it and take a look?"
Fu Xiao nodded. It was so heavy, and she was very curious about what was inside it.
Whether they were moving or talking, it was very natural between the two of them, and Zhai Yumo saw it clearly, and Fu Xiao did not reject Shen Xingzhou's approach.
He lowered his head, his thick eyelashes lightly covering his eyes, and no one could see the dark color in his eyes.
Zhai Jiu was unpacking the bamboo box that Mu Lianshen brought. "Give me my wine."
"What kind of wine?" Grandpa Mu came over and learned that it was brewed by Fu Xiao. He smiled and covered the box. "Xiao Jiu, did you know that our kid got first place in the country..."
Zhai Jiu smiled, "Uncle, I know, I prepared a gift for the child, but this wine was promised to me by Lian Shen."
"Hey, my little Guaiguai did really well in the exam this time, he got first place in the country, this child is really hardworking," said Mr. Mu as if he didn't hear him, "It's like this, your little Mo also did well in the exam, he got second place, your father and I have discussed it, and we are going to hold a banquet for the child in the courtyard in the suburbs tomorrow."
"This wine will be used to entertain guests that day."
Since he said so, Zhai Jiu could only agree, "Okay, let's start tomorrow. I'll take care of all the food."
"Okay, let's start at 3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon."
After they all left, Mu Lianshen pointed at Shen Xingzhou and asked, "How long has he been in our house?"
Old Master Mu waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about Xiao Shen. Go and invite your brothers to come and have fun tomorrow. The child got such good grades in the exam, but you, as a father, didn't show any reaction."
"Okay... I got it,"
Mr. Mu asked Shen Xingzhou to move the wine to the living room, and Mu Lianshen pulled Fu Xiao into the study.
Fu Xiao smiled and said to him: "Brother Lu and his friends came to see me yesterday and joked that since I did so well in the exam, I should treat them to a meal. Grandpa took it seriously."
Mu Lianshen patted her head and smiled gently, but did not respond to her words. He just said seriously: "My An An is really amazing."
"We should have a party to celebrate and let everyone know how great you are."
Fu Xiao raised his lips and said, "There's no need to make such a big fuss. Just invite a few of your friends."
He pretended to ask casually, “Are Chen Xingzhou and your grandfather on good terms now?”
She laughed, "You don't know what he told Grandpa,"
"What?"
Fu Xiao told Mr. Mu what Shen Xingzhou said last time, and Mu Lianshen suddenly felt mixed emotions.
After a moment of silence, he did not mention him again, but discussed tomorrow's affairs with her again, "I want to set up a few tables in the courtyard, what do you think?"
"Oh, no thanks, Grandpa just asked me to buy some candy to go out and walk around,"
"......"
The next afternoon.
The car stopped at the gate of a courtyard house in the suburbs.
Zhai Jiu stared at the silent Zhai Yumo and frowned, then called him again, "Amo,"
Zhai Yumo raised his eyes and said, "Uncle Jiu, I heard what you said. Don't worry, I am in good shape."
"Well, don't say anything you shouldn't say, or you and Fu Xiao won't even be able to be friends anymore."
Zhai Yumo just smiled and said nothing.
Seeing that he looked normal, Zhai Jiu got out of the car with peace of mind.
The man behind her had a mysterious look in his eyes. Suddenly he lowered his head and chuckled. Something he shouldn't have said?
Does it mean that he likes Fu Xiao's words?
But he still wanted to say it, even though he knew it was impossible, he still wanted to say it.
He wanted the girl to know, even if she would say no.
And Shen Xingzhou has caused him so much trouble, so it’s okay for him to make him feel a little uncomfortable.
Walking to the backyard, he heard the noisy chattering coming from inside. He smiled and walked in.
"Yu Mo...come here," Chen Jingchu waved at him.
