"How did you come?"
Mu Nuannuan didn't expect it to be Mu Tingxiao.
Mu Tingxiao was still wearing the suit he had worn when they parted from the airport in the afternoon. He glanced at Mu Nuannuan, bent down and picked up Mu Mu, and walked straight into the house.
After taking two steps, he felt that Mu Nuannuan hadn't followed, so he turned back to look at her and said, "Eat."
After hearing this, Mu Nuannuan looked down at the time and realized that it was already seven o'clock in the evening.
Mu Tingxiao had already carried Mu Mu to the edge of the sofa and sat down. Mu Nuannuan quickly closed the door and followed.
Mu Nuannuan asked her: "Mumu, are you hungry? What do you want to eat?"
Mu Mu sat on Mu Tingxiao's lap, dancing and saying, "Chicken legs."
"Chicken legs? Let me see if there are any." Mu Nuannuan turned around and walked towards the refrigerator.
When she went out, she planned to come back in ten days and a half, so everything in the refrigerator was basically cleared, except for the frozen meat in the freezer.
But not sure if there are chicken legs.
She went to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, looked in the freezer, and found that there were actually chicken legs in there.
Children like chicken legs and wings. When Mu Nuannuan usually buys them, she will buy more and keep them, even if Mu Mu doesn't stay with her much during this period.
Mu Nuannuan held the refrigerator door with one hand and shouted in the direction of Mu Mu: "Mu Mu, there are chicken legs in the refrigerator. You play with dad for a while, and I'll cook."
Mu Mu replied: "Okay!"
Mu Nuannuan took the meat from the freezer and glanced in the direction of the living room.
Mu Tingxiao turned on the TV, and the sound sounded like a cartoon.
Mu Mu sat next to him holding the little tiger, staring at the TV attentively. Mu Tingxiao crossed his legs and stared at the TV with slightly lowered eyes.
The postures of father and daughter are exactly the same.
Mu Mu laughed from time to time, but Mu Tingxiao just stared at the screen expressionlessly until the end.
Mu Nuannuan curled her lips and went to the kitchen to cook.
There were no fresh vegetables at home, and apart from the meat, there were only a few potatoes and dried fungus.
Mu Nuannuan made braised chicken legs, sliced fungus meat, stir-fried shredded potatoes, and seaweed and shrimp soup.
The most simple home cooking.
While Mu Nuannuan was making soup, she shouted to the living room: "Mumu, it's time to eat. Come to the kitchen to get your bowl and chopsticks."
Not long after, she felt someone approaching, and their footsteps were a little heavy.
Every time Mu Mu talked about eating, she would run to the kitchen excitedly to get a bowl.
This person with a slightly heavy step is naturally Mu Tingxiao.
She paused, looked back, and found that it was indeed Mu Tingxiao who had walked in.
He didn't look at Mu Nuannuan, but walked to the cupboard very naturally, opened the cupboard and took the bowl from inside.
Mu Mu's bowl was a colorful children's bowl. He took Mu Mu's bowl first, and then took two small white bowls.
Maybe he felt Mu Nuannuan looking at him, so he suddenly turned his head and met Mu Nuannuan's eyes.
Mu Nuannuan originally thought she was being honest, but now she felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by Mu Tingxiao.
She smiled and turned her head silently to look at her soup.
In the seaweed and shrimp soup, there is no need to cook the seaweed and shrimps. Just put them in a bowl, rinse them with boiling water, and add some salt, vinegar, and green onions.
After she finished making the soup, a big hand stretched out from beside her and picked up the soup with one hand.
Mu Nuannuan turned around and saw that he was still holding a bowl in his other hand, and said, "I'll do it..."
Mu Tingxiao ignored her and walked out easily with a bowl in one hand and soup in the other.
Mu Nuannuan had no choice but to let him go and take out the dishes herself.
After Mu Tingxiao put the soup on the table in front, he raised his voice and said, "Mumu, eat."
Mu Mu was still watching TV attentively, and could not hear Mu Tingxiao's voice at all.
Mu Tingxiao narrowed his eyes, stood up and walked over.
He walked over, picked up the remote control from the coffee table and turned off the TV.
Mu Mu was watching with enthusiasm. When his temper got angry, he reached out and threw out the puppet in his hand. He pointed at Mu Tingxiao and said loudly: "Why turn off my TV!"
Because of her anger, her voice was raised a lot and sounded a bit sharp.
Mu Tingxiao was indifferent to this. He pointed at the little tiger she threw to the ground and said in a deep voice: "Pick it up."
"I don't!" Mu Mu wrinkled her nose, snorted at him, and went to get the remote control to turn on the TV.
Mu Tingxiao couldn't see her little movements. When she reached out, he also stretched out his arm, took her collar, lifted her up from the sofa and walked towards the dining table.
When Mu Nuannuan brought out the last dish, this was the scene she saw.
When Mu Mu was picked up by Mu Tingxiao, she was sensitively aware that he might be angry, so she didn't dare to say anything. She clenched her fists, pursed her lips and twitched, and she didn't dare to cry.
Mu Nuannuan put down the dishes and looked at Mu Tingxiao: "What's wrong?"
Mu Mu, who was originally pursed and didn't dare to cry, cried "Wow" when he saw Mu Nuannuan: "Mom, I want mom!"
The crying was extremely miserable.
If Mu Nuannuan hadn't just witnessed what happened, she would have thought that Mu Tingxiao was abusing Mu Mu.
Mu Tingxiao stuffed Mu Mu into the children's dining chair and said expressionlessly: "It's useless for you to call me grandpa today."
Mu Mu stopped crying for a moment, then raised his head and cried "Wow" again, and cried miserably: "Grandpa! I want grandpa."
Mu Tingxiao's face suddenly darkened.
Mu Nuannuan: "..."
This was also the first time she saw Mu Mu looking so naughty.
Mu Tingxiao poured a glass of water and handed it to Mu Mu's mouth: "Drink some water and calm down."
Mu Nuannuan looked at Mu Tingxiao dumbfounded.
Does he coax a child like this
She couldn't stand it anymore and walked over to hug Mu Mu, but was stopped by Mu Tingxiao.
Mu Mu's crying became quieter, and she looked at Mu Nuannuan aggrievedly: "Mom..."
Mu Nuannuan was about to speak, but was pushed gently by Mu Tingxiao. He repeated: "Drink water."
His tone was serious, and Mu Mu's little body trembled, and he actually lowered his head to drink water.
She took a big sip, then pushed Mu Tingxiao's arm away: "I won't drink anymore."
"Have you calmed down?" Mu Tingxiao put down the water glass and asked her.
Mu Mu stretched out his hand to wipe the tears from his face, and said softly: "Calm down."
Mu Tingxiao asked again: "Do you want to eat?"
Mu Mu looked up at him and nodded: "Eat."
Mu Tingxiao picked up her bowl, put the rice in front of her, and gave her a chicken leg.
Mu Mu obediently picked up the chopsticks to eat, took only one bite, and sobbed again: "It's hot."
"Then wait a moment and let it cool before eating."
Mu Tingxiao continued to fill the bowl with rice without raising his head.
Mu Nuannuan was stunned as she watched Mu Tingxiao fill a bowl of rice and put it in front of her.
Mu Tingxiao didn't seem to realize what he had done. He served Mu Nuannuan rice and then served it to himself.
