"That's a good idea. I'll get some peanuts!" Sister-in-law Liu turned around and saw Ning Xiaofei standing at the door with a red face. She immediately laughed, "Master, what's wrong?"
"No, I just have nothing to do. Come over and see if I can help!"
"No, no, no!" Sister-in-law Liu hurriedly pushed her out, "There are enough for the two of us, just go and accompany Mr. Mu."
"Grandpa is still sleeping!"
"Then you go to the sofa and stay for a while!" Mrs. Liu pushed her out and sat her down on the sofa. "Eat some fruit, we will be ready soon."
Helpless, Ning Xiaofei had no choice but to take a magazine from the coffee table and read it. When she was halfway through the magazine, she heard a soft knock on the door.
"I'll open it!" She just came back from Mu Tianye's work. She immediately got up and walked over, opening the door. "So early... is it you?"
Outside the door, Mother Mu stood impressively.
She has not been back for the past few days. Mother Mu was also worried about the old man's health. When she came back to take a look, she still had some specially bought fruits and a few pastries that the old man loved.
She also didn't expect that it was Ning Xiaofei who opened the door, and she was surprised and happy.
"Xiao Fei!"
"You...you are here to see grandpa, come in quickly!" Ning Xiaofei hurriedly stepped aside to make way for the door, "Grandpa is resting upstairs."
"Oh, then... I won't disturb him anymore, I..." Chu Xinning put the things on the table, "Then I... go!"
"No!" Ning Xiaofei said hurriedly, "You... sit down for a while!"
Mrs. Liu also came out of the kitchen at this moment. When she saw the two chatting at the door, she thought for a while and then returned to the kitchen, pretending that she didn't hear them.
Chu Xinning was stunned, "Then... okay."
So, the two of them came to the sofa one after another, and after some humility, they took their seats. For a moment, they didn't know what to talk about. Ning Xiaofei stretched out her hand to push the fruit plate, but Chu Xinning, who was opposite, also thought of this. Move, the two hands moved together to hold the fruit plate, and no one pushed it.
Awkwardly, Ning Xiaofei raised her face towards the other party. She couldn't hold it back and raised the corners of her lips. Chu Xinning, who was opposite her, also smiled.
With this smile, the atmosphere relaxed instantly.
"Amano is going to a new company, so he sent me here to stay with grandpa."
"I've been in the hospital these past few days, and I'm worried about the old man. I just have free time today, so I came over to take a look."
"Mr. Qin's body..."
"Much better." Chu Xinning pursed her lips and looked around, "You must have been here a few times. Amano's room is upstairs."
"I've been there."
Speaking of this, Ning Xiaofei thought of the wishing tree and the tear-stained "I'm sorry", and her heart felt sad again.
Noticing that her eyes were wrong, Chu Xinning frowned, stood up and moved in her direction, raised her palms, but she hesitated and didn't dare to reach out, and just comforted her gently, "I don't care about Mr. Ji's matter either. I heard that birth, old age, illness and death are normal things as we age, so don’t think too hard about it.”
Looking at her eyes, I thought she was thinking of her deceased grandfather, so she was so comforted.
Ning Xiaofei noticed her gaffe and raised her hand to wipe her eyes, but she gently held her hand and brought a tissue over.
"Don't rub it with your hands, use the swollen ones."
The woman in front of her had a gentle look on her face that reminded her of her late mother.
"Well, I know, thank you!"

The black car slowly drove into the gate of City A University and passed by the affiliated kindergarten.
It was afternoon, just when parents were picking up their children, and the driver had to slow down.
