Aunt Wu followed Su Jinyu's line of sight and keenly noticed the difference between the two.
He asked softly, "Are you two having a conflict?"
Her eyes scanned back and forth between Su Jinyu and Zhou Youchen, trying to find the answer from their expressions.
Su Jinyu retracted her gaze, regardless of whether the man could hear her or not, and deliberately raised her voice, which was full of anger and unwillingness: "Someone... is ungrateful! Crossing the river and destroying the bridge! It is infuriating to both humans and gods! It is unacceptable!! "
As she spoke, she secretly observed Zhou Youchen's reaction outside the house. She saw the "sculpture" figure shake, and a smug look appeared on her face, and she stopped talking with satisfaction.
Humph, if you make her unhappy, you will have no good life!
Aunt Wu burst out laughing, the sound was clear and pleasant to the ear.
She looked at Su Jinyu with eyes full of affection, and said softly: "You are still a child."
As he was talking, Mu Sheng came over carrying an exquisite basket. His steps were brisk, and there was a faint smile on his face, which was as cold as a knife.
"Who made you angry... why are you so angry?"
Su Jinyu looked at the three words "Jin Su Zhai" on the basket, and her eyes lit up instantly.
"No matter who you are, eating is more important than anything else."
Her voice was filled with joy, as if all the previous unhappiness had disappeared in an instant.
'Jin Su Zhai' not only has traditional snacks, but also Western snacks.
The best one is the strawberry cake...
The sweet taste of strawberry cake, the delicate cream, and the bright red strawberries emerged in Su Jinyu's mind. Just thinking about it made her taste buds stir and her saliva almost flow out.
She couldn't wait to open the basket, and sure enough, it was the strawberry cake she had been dreaming about.
"How do you know that you like to eat this?"
When she was a child, she had bad teeth and her grandfather never gave her sweets.
Mu Sheng had a faint smile on his face and didn't explain further.
She swiftly took out the pineapple cakes she had brought for Aunt Wu. The beautifully packaged paper box was printed with simple floral patterns, and it shone softly in the sunlight.
"This is for Aunt Wu, remember you like it."
"You are still as caring as you were when you were a kid."
Aunt Wu looked at 놛 lovingly, her eyes full of pity, as if she saw through the tall and strong man in front of her and saw the little boy who followed 놛 many years ago.
"It should be." Mu Sheng said softly, with deep respect in his tone.
I have always remembered Aunt Wu's care for me. It was the motherly love that I had been missing for so many years, and it is the warmest corner in my heart.
"You should eat more."
Aunt Wu felt a pang of pain in her heart when she saw the conspicuous scar on Mu Sheng's face.
She knew that being alone outside and hanging out together had caused her a lot of suffering.
Aunt Wu reached out and gently held Mu Sheng's arm, the warmth of her palm transmitted through his sleeve.
She helped Mu Sheng sit down, looked him over carefully, and said distressedly, "You'll be the head of the family from now on. Aunt Wu will make delicious food for you... Look at your little face, it's so thin, it's sunken."
Mu Sheng felt extremely comfortable, just like being enveloped by the warm sunshine in the daytime.
놛 was too embarrassed to nod, and could only smile helplessly and said, "Auntie Wu, 놖 is not thin."
"Why aren't you thinner? Look at you."
Aunt Wu said as she reached out and gently pinched 놛's face. 땤 The touch was no longer the chubby face of childhood, but a firmer outline.
"You used to be so chubby and cute, but now there's no flesh on your face."
Su Jinyu had cake stuffed in his mouth, his cheeks bulging, and cream staining the corners of his mouth, like a greedy little squirrel.
Looking at Mu Sheng whose face was pinched, she couldn't help laughing. Her laughter was clear and pleasant, echoing in the air.
To say that Mu Sheng is thin is a bit of an exaggeration.
She looked at Mu Sheng and saw that he was a man who worked out all the year round. He had an upright and lean figure, sharp features on his face, and a jawline as sharp as if it had been carved by a knife. He was very different from the chubby boy he was when he was a child.
So she didn't recognize him at first.
Su Jinyu took the time to rescue her and said to Aunt Wu, her voice a little unclear because of the food in her mouth: "Who can always be as chubby as a child and pretend to be cute... Look at everyone, they are all skinny. I wish I could raise you like a child and make you fat."
"You are thin to begin with." Aunt Wu's voice was gentle but firm.
"You should eat more..." Mu Shengxiao said.
Two voices sounded at the same time. Mu Sheng and Aunt Wu looked at each other and couldn't help laughing. That laughter was full of warmth and harmony.
Su Jinyu was unhappy. She wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and said angrily, "Well... you are just shooting yourself in the foot."
As she said that, she glared at Mu Sheng, but there was no anger in her eyes, instead there was a hint of coquettishness, "I won't help you next time!"
"I'll help you..." Qingru ran out of the house like a happy little bird, her eyes sparkling. When she saw the dazzling array of snacks on the table, her eyes narrowed into slits with a smile, "Brother Mutou, I'll help you..."
Su Jinyu raised her eyebrows, looked at Qingru, and deliberately asked, "What do you want to help with?"
"Ah?" Qing Ru had no idea what was going on. She stuffed some snacks into her mouth and said with a smile, "I'll help you with anything."
Her cheeks were puffed up with some snacks, and she looked very cute.
“……” Everyone looked at Qingru and couldn’t help laughing.
The four of them talked and laughed, and their laughter intertwined in the air, forming a warm and harmonious picture, just like a family.
At the gate, the police officers watched from a distance, their eyes full of envy.
"Miss Su is really nice to her servants. She's not pretentious at all. She's unlike some families who treat their servants like beasts of burden." A police officer said softly, with a hint of emotion in his voice.
"That's right... Look at the one next to Miss Su, wearing a satin dress, eating golden crispy snacks one by one... These few bites are equivalent to half a month's salary for us." Another police officer added, with a flash of surprise in his eyes.
"So expensive!!" One police officer opened his mouth in surprise.
"You poor devils have never eaten it."
The police officer turned his head and looked at Zhou Youchen. Captain Zhou was different from the others. It was obvious that he came from a good family and had a great demeanor.
The sunshine shines on Zhou Youchen, outlining his tall and straight figure. The police uniform makes him look even more heroic.
"Captain Zhou, you must have bought Jin Su Zhai before. Do you think a box of Jin Su Zhai snacks is equivalent to half of our monthly salary?"
Zhou Youchen turned around and looked at the people laughing under the tree. Their smiles were particularly bright under the sunlight.
놛 nodded, and said in a low and calm voice: "That table of snacks will last for half a year."
Your words are like a ball of water thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples.
“…”
Everyone suddenly fell silent, as if they were struck by this shocking number, and even the mood to gossip disappeared.
