Chapter 201 Intention
Mu Chenze is also a sweet-talker. Since his wife calls Wu Bingcheng "Dad", he won't wait until tomorrow to change her words.
A playful smile appeared on his face and he looked at Mrs. Wu.
"Grandma, I want to take advantage of your kindness and change my mind today, okay?"
It has been seen that the Wu family is headed by Old Lady Wu.
Mrs. Wu responded kindly, "Okay. I'll change my mind first, but I won't give the red envelope until tomorrow."
Mu Chenze bowed with both hands, "No problem. Thank you, grandma, for your help."
Then he looked at Wu Bingcheng and Tian Xiaoyun.
"Dad, Mom! I'll change my words today. Tomorrow, Xiaoxuan and I will serve tea to Mom and Dad together."
Wu Bingcheng and his wife responded almost at the same time, "Okay."
Chu Xuan was also sensible. She looked at Mu Qinlao and his wife and said, "Then I'll change my words today too! Dad, Mom!"
Mu Qinlao and his wife responded almost at the same time, grinning.
So happy!
Then he looked at Mu Chenfu and his wife, "Brother, sister-in-law!"
Mu Chenfu and his wife responded at the same time, showing perfect understanding.
About ten minutes later, the Mu family invited Mrs. Wu and others to have dinner at the Mu family's house in the evening.
Old Mrs. Wu readily agreed.
After chatting for a while, the Mu family said goodbye. Old Mrs. Wu asked Wu Bingcheng to drive them back and take the gift for the Mu family with her. It was in the trunk.
Wu Bingcheng did as he was told.
After watching the Mu family leave, Tian Xiaoyun quietly reminded Chu Xuan, "Your grandma needs a nap. Which room do you think she should stay in? Oh, and don't worry about your Grandpa Zhang's room. He'll be leaving soon to take the train back to Kyoto from the county town."
"Okay. Grandma, you can have a room to yourself! You can live in Xiaofeng's room. Xiaofeng and Daddy can live in the newly built bedroom. My mother and I can live in my room. Let's arrange it this way for today. After a few days, when the kang has thoroughly dried out the new bedroom, you and Daddy can live in that room. Xiaofeng will live with me."
"Xiao Feng isn't a child anymore, it's not good for him to live with you..."
"My room has a curtain. If you draw the curtain, it can be divided into two rooms."
As he was talking, Chu Xuan took his mother to the bedroom to look at the curtains.
It's quite thick and not transparent.
Only then did he agree.
After a while, Mrs. Wu went to Xiaofeng's room for a nap.
The temperature of the kang is moderate.
Fell asleep soundly.
Chu Feng sent Grandpa Zhang to the village entrance to take a carriage.
Tian Xiaoyun took out some Kyoto specialties and foreign chocolates, canned goods, bread, candies, etc. from his suitcase and bag and spread them all over the coffee table in the main room.
The Mu family also has a share of these things, which are in the trunk of the car. Wu Bingcheng will give them to the Mu family.
Chu Xuan divided these things into six parts.
Four of them were given away, and the other two were kept for family members.
After arranging for his mother to take a nap, Chu Xuan rode his bike out with four bulging cloth bags.
First go to Grandpa Wang’s house, then to Liu Zhaodi’s house, then to Aunt Hua’s house, and finally to Aunt Niu’s house.
After delivering the things, I rode my bike back home.
The car was not there, and I knew without asking that Wu Bingcheng had gone to the Mu family and had not returned yet.
Push the cart into the yard and set it up.
I saw my younger brother cleaning up the unused seafood ingredients.
"Sister, can I pack it up and send it to my brother-in-law's house? We can continue eating it tonight or put it in the refrigerator."
"good."
Chu Feng quickly packed up and put it in the basket. When he was about to leave, he whispered to Chu Xuan, "Sister, do our grandma and mom really want to give you 10,000 yuan each?"
Chu Xuan smiled and responded softly, "How could it be false?"
"That's great! I didn't expect the Wu family to accept both of us. Actually, I was a little scared when I saw grandma for the first time."
He was afraid that this grandmother would be like Feng Chunhua, beating and scolding him and his sister and not giving them food.
Fortunately, the facts proved otherwise.
I give my sister tens of thousands of dollars as soon as we meet!
Chu Xuan gently rubbed the little brother's head and said, "Don't be afraid. Grandma is a kind-hearted person with a tough mouth."
Chu Feng chuckled, "Yeah, now I think so too. By the way, sister, how much money is in the red envelope that Dad gave you?"
"One thousand. How about you?"
"It's also a thousand yuan. Sister, can you keep it for me?"
"I would definitely help you collect it before, but starting today, you have to adapt. Our mom is back. Who do you think should help you collect it?"
Chu Feng understood immediately, "Then I'll wait for our mother to wake up and ask her to help me put it away. I'll go to my brother-in-law's house first."
"Go!"
After watching her younger brother leave, Chu Xuan walked into the bedroom and took a nap with her mother.
At 3:30 in the afternoon, Chu Xuan woke up.
When I went to the yard, I found that Xiaofeng and his father had not returned.
Tian Xiaoyun was still asleep.
Chu Xuan didn't wake her up, guessing that she had been rushing here these days and hadn't had enough rest.
I didn't call grandma either.
Grandma is old and needs to rest for a while after such a long drive.
Go out quietly.
The bicycle was taken away by Xiaofeng.
Chu Xuan could only walk to the Mu family.
When we got near Mu's house, we found out why none of them went back.
Wu Bingcheng sat in the passenger seat, instructing Mu Chenze on how to drive.
Mu Chenfu, Chu Feng, and Mu Qinlao sat in the back seat and followed suit.
Chu Xuan couldn't help but sigh that Wu Bingcheng had such a good temper!
Looking through the car window at Wu Bingcheng's profile, I felt that he looked somewhat like the man with glasses whom I had met in the morning.
Similar accents.
If Wu Bingcheng was not more than ten centimeters taller than the man, she would have mistakenly thought that it was Wu Bingcheng in disguise.
At this time, Mu Chenze saw Chu Xuan.
After greeting each other, Mu Chenze gave up the driver's seat and Mu Chenfu immediately sat in it.
Wu Bingcheng patiently instructed Mu Chenfu how to drive.
Mu Chenze walked up to Chu Xuan, his eyes filled with excitement, "Xiao Xuan, I know how to shift gears! It feels even easier than driving a tractor."
Chu Xuan smiled and joked, "You learn things quickly. You were really sweet today, and you called mom and dad so nicely!"
Mu Chenze smiled and said, "From now on, your relatives are my relatives. You like me, so you think my name sounds nice. Xiao Xuan, I'm really happy today! But I'm almost overwhelmed by the money. Your family is really rich."
"I didn't expect that either. But there's something I want to tell you."
"Let's talk in my room?"
"good."
They walked into the courtyard together. After Chu Xuan greeted Fu Qing and Qin Mahua, he walked into Mu Chenze's bedroom.
Fu Qing whispered to Qin Mahua, "Mom, how about we increase the betrothal gift for Xiao Xuan? I absolutely won't marry into her family, and I won't make a fuss. Her family gave her so much dowry, it would be a bit unreasonable if we didn't give her more."
Qin Mahua smiled and waved her hand. "No need. I already understand what Mrs. Wu means. She doesn't care how much dowry our family gives Xiaoxuan. She only cares that our family can continue to treat Xiaoxuan well."
At this moment, Chu Xuan and Mu Chenze in the bedroom were also discussing the Wu family's affairs.
"Xiao Xuan, what do you want to tell me?"
"This morning, a man who looked a bit like Uncle Wu came to our village. He was about ten centimeters shorter than Uncle Wu. He even came to my house and sat for a while, chatting with Xiaofeng. Afterwards, I took him to the village office to coordinate tractors. Why do I feel like he was paving the way for Grandma and the others?"
This successfully reminded Mu Chenze, "Could it be that it was because you and Xiaofeng withstood the Wu family's test that grandma came to personally accept you and Xiaofeng and attend our engagement banquet?"
Chu Xuan was still a little puzzled. "That man didn't test Xiao Feng and me. He just chatted about some family matters."
Mu Chenze looked worried, "Could the Wu family have any plans for you?"
