Mu Nuannuan thought about it and felt that Shiye was right.
It was difficult to guess what Mu Tingxiao was thinking. She was a little surprised that Mu Tingxiao could live here as the Romans did in the past few days.
There was always something about him that she didn't understand.
Mu Tingxiao said a few more words to the uncle, and then the uncle patted Mu Tingxiao, moved his lips a few times, and said few words, but Mu Nuannuan did not see what he said.
At this time, Mu Tingxiao suddenly waved to her.
Mu Nuannuan walked over quickly.
As she approached, the uncle looked at her with a smile: "Don't you like to eat the kimchi I made? I will get you a box to decorate and take home. You can still eat it in this weather."
The weather in late autumn is already the season for wearing sweaters, and food is not so easy to spoil.
Mu Nuannuan was a little moved: "Sit down and I'll do it myself."
Except that she had a fever on the first day she came here, she was cooking for the next few days and knew where uncle's kimchi was.
"Okay, then you go get the kimchi yourself, and I'll go to the field and dig some sweet potatoes for you. That stuff has no pesticides and is different from what you sell in the city..."
The uncle said, going to get the hoe.
Mu Nuannuan stopped him quickly: "No need..."
It was a sunny day and the ground was still slippery, especially the dirt.
"I'll dig out a few for you, wash them, and take them away. I don't have anything else here..." Naturally, the uncle would not listen to Mu Nuannuan's persuasion and went to the fields with the hoe.
Mu Nuannuan watched her uncle go to the fields, then went back to the house to make kimchi.
The kimchi is served in a large pottery jar, and there is a large vat of kimchi inside, which is very fragrant.
Mu Nuannuan packed a box and packed it herself. When she came out, the uncle was already back.
I have been doing farm work in the countryside all my life. Although I am old, I have no serious physical problems and my movements are very agile.
The uncle washed and packed the fresh sweet potatoes, went into the house to tinker with them for a while, and came out with two more big bags.
Mu Nuannuan remembered a topic she had read online before, about parents stuffing things into their boxes when their children leave home after the Spring Festival.
Ordinary parents are always worried about their children. When they leave home after the Chinese New Year, they will think of bringing a little bit of everything to their children.
Mu Nuannuan had never had this kind of treatment from Xiao Chuhe, but she had this kind of treatment from this old man she had only been with for a few days.
The uncle put those things neatly into a nylon bag, and while tightening the mouth of the bag, he said to himself: "I'm afraid you will cause trouble when you go back, otherwise, I still have many things I want to do." I’ll give it to you to decorate and take away. I grew these things myself and they are very healthy..."
Mu Nuannuan walked over and helped him hold the bag opening without saying a word.
Also speechless.
It took a long time to load things.
By the time it was time to leave, it was almost lunch time.
The uncle stood at the door of the hall with a frown and said, "Why don't we leave after lunch? It's already noon."
Although he didn't show it on his face or say it out loud, Mu Nuannuan could already feel his reluctance.
Life is always about gathering less and leaving more.
She and Mu Tingxiao couldn't live here forever and had to return to their own lives.
Mu Nuannuan raised her head, reached out and pulled Mu Tingxiao's sleeve, with a hint of pleading in her tone: "Mu Tingxiao."
It was already noon anyway, so she wanted to accompany her uncle to have lunch before leaving, but Mu Tingxiao might not agree.
As expected, Mu Tingxiao did not agree.
"We have a lot of other things to deal with, so we won't stay for lunch." Mu Tingxiao looked at his uncle calmly, frowned slightly, pondered for a few seconds, and said solemnly: "Take care."
The uncle sighed: "Okay, you can go. My legs are not good, so I won't send you away."
After he finished speaking, he picked up the cat squatting next to him, turned around and entered the main room, closing the door.
Mu Nuannuan's nose was a little sore. She took a deep breath and raised her head slightly to suppress the slightly sore eyes.
Mu Tingxiao looked down at her and said indifferently, "Let's go."
Mu Nuannuan walked far away and couldn't help but look back.
She didn't look back until she reached the spot where the helicopter was parked and could no longer see the two-story mottled blue brick house.
She and Mu Nuannuan sat side by side, neither of them speaking.
In this way, we arrived at the county seat in silence.
After getting the signal, Mu Tingxiao called home.
The servant answered the video and Mu Nuannuan saw Mu Mu.
Seeing Mu Mu's joy diluted the disappointment in Mu Nuannuan's heart.
Mu Nuannuan took her mobile phone and asked her: "Mumu, do you miss your mother?"
Mu Tingxiao sat behind Mu Nuannuan. Mu Mu saw Mu Tingxiao from the video, and her little eyebrows wrinkled again: "You go out to play without me..."
Mu Nuannuan was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "We will be back soon."
"Okay." Mu Mu put her face in front of the phone's camera, and her face was all over the screen.
Mu Nuannuan talked to Mu Mu for a while, then turned to ask Mu Tingxiao: "Do you want to tell Mu Mu?"
Mu Tingxiao said expressionlessly: "Don't tell."
Although he refused so simply, his expression at this time clearly meant that was not the case.
If he didn't want to talk to Mu Mu, what was he doing sitting behind her
Mu Nuannuan thought for a while and handed the phone to Mu Tingxiao: "Here."
Mu Tingxiao glanced at the phone screen. The entire screen was filled with Mu Mu's face. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Mu Mu, you are so ugly."
Mu Mu naturally knew what "ugly" meant. She wrinkled her nose and imitated Mu Tingxiao's tone and said, "Mu Qingjiao, you are so ugly."
Mu Tingxiao suddenly curled his lips, a smile flashed in his eyes, and took the phone from Mu Nuannuan's hand.
He stared at the screen for a few seconds and asked, "Are you fat again?"
Mu Nuannuan glared at him: "In the mobile video, he looks fatter than me."
Mu Mu blinked his eyes and touched his belly: "A lot of meat."
"I know you're fat, so stop patting your belly." After Mu Tingxiao said this, he handed the phone to Mu Nuannuan.
Mu Nuannuan took it, said a few words to Mu Mu, and then hung up the video call.
In the mountains these days, Mu Mu was most worried.
After she was sure that Mu Mu was fine, she felt relieved.
They stayed in a three-star hotel in the county town.
There were too many people in their group, and among them, there was only one woman, Mu Nuannuan.
In the end, the room was arranged, and even Shiye squeezed into a room with other subordinates, and in the end there was only one room left.
Mu Nuannuan didn't have any objections. Anyway, she had been sleeping with Mu Tingxiao in the mountains these past few days.
Mu Tingxiao, on the other hand, looked reluctant.
After entering the room, Mu Tingxiao asked her, "Where do you sleep?"
