Chapter 116 Sweet Potato Breakfast
Wenxi always felt that there was a burning gaze staring at her in her dreams.
When she woke up, Mu Yansen had already turned his head away.
Wenxi felt a little embarrassed. She was so sleepy that she didn't even realize she had arrived home.
Not daring to look at Mu Yansen, he patted his face, got out of the car, opened the trunk and moved the remaining vegetables and fruits into the house.
She tried to move the bag of sweet potatoes, but couldn't pull it.
A big hand reached out, picked up the bag of sweet potatoes and went into the house.
Wenxi watched from behind, wondering, is the strength disparity between men and women really that great? After all, she practices Taekwondo, so how could she not even be able to lift a bag of sweet potatoes?
I carried two bags of vegetables in.
When Sister Zhao and the others saw the eldest young master and the eldest young mistress moving things themselves, they were so scared that they quickly came out and moved the remaining things back in.
Before going upstairs, Wenxi called Sister Zhao.
"Sister Zhao, steam the broken sweet potatoes tomorrow morning."
"Okay, Madam."
"Also, make sweet potatoes for breakfast for the next week. Your eldest master wants to eat them."
Mu Yansen, who was going upstairs, stopped.
Sister Zhao glanced at the eldest young master and nodded suspiciously.
She remembered that the eldest young master didn't like sweet potatoes.
Sure enough, for the next week, there was a plate of sweet potatoes on the table every morning.
At first, Mu Yansen could barely eat one, but later, he lost his appetite when he saw sweet potatoes.
Wenxi saw his reaction and the corners of her mouth curled up.
Youyou said, "Eat it. You dug it yourself, so eat it. Don't waste it."
Mu Yansen ground his back teeth. Was this woman doing it on purpose?
"I'm full. I'll pack it up and take it away for lunch later."
"Sister Zhao, bring me an insulated box."
Wenxi took the thermal box from Sister Zhao and really put the sweet potatoes in it and placed it in front of him.
Mu Yansen glanced at the little woman opposite him with a half-smile. As long as she paid attention to him, it would not matter if she teased him a little.
Mu Yansen happily took the thermal box to the company.
Wenxi felt that since he had failed to trick Mu Yansen, he felt like a clown.
As soon as Mu Yansen entered the company, he threw the thermal box to Zhao Yi.
"I brought you breakfast, eat it!"
Zhao Yi took the thermal box with tears of gratitude, and was stunned when he opened it. It was full of sweet potatoes.
Forget it, this is the first time that President Mu brought them breakfast, although it’s not a big meal.
Give one to each of the four secretaries.
When they heard that President Mu brought these sweet potatoes specially for them, they suddenly felt that these were not ordinary sweet potatoes, but sweet potatoes full of President Mu's care.
If Mu Yansen knew that a few sweet potatoes could move his subordinates to tears, he would probably die of laughter.
When Wenxi arrived at the store, he received a call from his elder brother Li Zhixing.
"Big brother."
"Xiaoxi, I have something to ask of you."
"Brother, what's the matter? Tell me!"
"The people I sent before have been investigating the cause of my aunt's death, but they checked several hospitals in the capital and the county hospitals at that time and found no records of my aunt's hospitalization. They said it was too long ago and the data might be missing.
I want you to go to the countryside where you grew up and ask around to see if you can find out anything. It should be easier to find out if you go."
Wenxi smiled. For her mother's sake, she felt obliged to do it.
"Brother, thank you for always running around for Mom's affairs. Don't worry, leave this matter to me."
"Well, tell me if you find anything. Find someone to go with you. I'm worried if you go alone."
"Okay, I will."
Wenxi's grandparents live in a village below the capital, a six-hour drive away.
Although it's not far, she has never been back in these years.
It just so happened that Lin Huizi was on vacation at home these days.
Wenxi asked her to join him.
You can't drive such a flashy car when going to the countryside, so she and the driver, Uncle Zhang, borrowed his private car, a Cadillac.
After packing up their things, the two set off.
It was not until Mu Yansen got home from get off work that he found out that Wenxi had borrowed Uncle Zhang's car and left.
"Where is she going?"
Uncle Zhang saw that the eldest young master looked unhappy, and then he realized that the eldest young mistress had not told the eldest young master.
He immediately replied, "The eldest young lady said she was going to Wanglin Village."
"Wanglin Village?"
"Well, that's what the eldest young lady said."
"She went alone?"
"And Miss Lin."
Mu Yansen wondered why she was going there. He remembered that he was kidnapped to that village.
After thinking for a while, Mu Yansen called Wenxi.
The phone rang for a long time before it was answered.
"What are you doing in Wanglin Village?"
"I have some personal matters to attend to."
"Do you need my help?"
"No, I can handle it."
Mu Yansen was very frustrated by the rejection without hesitation.
He is her husband, but when she has something to do, she would rather trouble Lin Huizi than look for him.
She was angry for a little longer this time.
Mu Yansen sighed and hung up the phone.
Then he called Zhao Yi.
"Zhao Yi, please check the relationship between Wenxi and Wanglin Village."
"Okay, Mr. Mu."
Zhao Yi replied quickly.
"Mr. Mu, Miss Wen grew up in Wanglin Village when she was a child. Her grandparents live there."
Mu Yansen hung up the phone thoughtfully.
He remembered that Wenxi's grandparents were not kind to her, so why did she return to Lincun?
Wenxi and Lin Huizi took turns driving for six hours before reaching Wanglin Village.
After so many years, the once dilapidated village is now paved with cement and every household has a small Western-style house.
At the entrance of the village, a group of old men and women were playing mahjong.
When they saw a foreign vehicle, they looked around curiously.
Wenxi did not get off the car. He drove around and drove out of the village, then went to the county town two kilometers away to find a hotel to stay in.
She was just going to explore the route today.
When she entered the village, she found her grandparents' house based on her rough memory.
The location has not changed, but the old house was demolished and a small Western-style building was built.
Yes, Wen Bowen has made a lot of money over the years, and the money he spent on building a small Western-style house for them is just a drop in the bucket.
"Xiaoxi, what should we do tomorrow?"
She followed Wenxi's arrangements in everything.
"Hui Hui, do you know how to play mahjong?"
"Yes, there are very few people in our area who don't know how to play mahjong. And I'm very good at it. Not many people can beat me."
When talking about playing mahjong, Lin Huizi's eyes light up.
"Okay, tomorrow we'll go to the village entrance and play mahjong with the old man and the old lady."
"Are you not going to do your job anymore?"
Wenxi winked at her.
"There are so many old men and women in this place, it's best to get some information."
Lin Huizi understood immediately.
After breakfast the next day, Wenxi and Lin Huizi went to the mahjong table at the entrance of the village.
They came early and there were not many elderly people there.
Lin Huizi took the initiative to move forward.
"Grandpa and grandma, are you still short of people? Can you take me with you?"
The old people said, "Of course you can. We like to fight with young people. Little girls, who are your relatives? Why haven't we seen you before?"
Wenxi walked forward and recognized one of them as her former next-door neighbor, Grandma Zhang.
Grandma Zhang was a nice person. When she saw that she was punished and not allowed to eat, she secretly gave her a steamed bun.
"Grandma Zhang, I'm Wenxi, the granddaughter of the old Wen family, and this is my friend."
