Mu Zhilan immediately stood up and said, "I'll help you serve it."
Xu Xiuwen was not polite and handed the bowl to her directly.
Soon, Mu Zhilan came out of the kitchen again with a bowl of noodles.
Xu Xiuwen took the bowl and said thank you.
Immediately he took a big bite.
Xu Xiuwen suddenly asked: "Sister Mu, what are you going to do in the future?"
"What's the meaning?"
"You and Xiaogang's father..."
Xu Xiuwen didn't finish.
But his expression and tone said it all.
Mu Zhilan instantly understood what he wanted to say.
She lowered her head in silence.
After a moment, he whispered, "What else can I do? Just keep living."
Xu Xiuwen asked: "Aren't you going to divorce him?"
Xu Xiuwen had asked Mu Zhilan similar questions before.
But Mu Zhilan’s answer was that for Xiaogang’s sake, she would not divorce.
But after what happened just now.
Xu Xiuwen really wanted to know whether Mu Zhilan had changed her mind.
Mu Zhilan thought for a while, shook her head, and said softly: "I don't know either. If we get divorced, what will happen to Xiaogang? And if the people back home find out, how will they look at me?"
Many women in unhappy marriages are trapped by fame and children their entire lives.
Xu Xiuwen would not laugh at them.
He thought about it seriously and said, "People live for themselves. Don't always care about what others think. This will make your life very tiring. And you think you are considering Xiaogang, but have you ever thought about whether Xiaogang is willing to live in this environment and whether he wants you to divorce. You should actually have a good talk with Xiaogang and listen to his ideas..."
Mu Zhilan remained silent after hearing this.
After a moment, he forced a smile and said, "I see. I'll ask Xiaogang some other day."
"That's good."
Finish the noodles and talk.
It's time to go to bed.
Mu Zhilan still wants to wash the dishes.
Xu Xiuwen said, "Don't wash the dishes yet. Let's wash them together tomorrow. It's getting late. Go to bed early."
"Okay, Xu... Xiu Wen." Mu Zhilan almost said the three words 'Boss Xu' again, but fortunately she changed her words in time.
After separating from Mu Zhilan.
Xu Xiuwen returned to the bedroom and soon fell asleep.
And in the room opposite.
After Mu Zhilan returned to bed, her cell phone suddenly vibrated.
She picked it up and saw that it was a call from Qiao Gang.
Qiao Gang asked, "Mom, are you asleep?"
Mu Zhilan said: "Just getting ready for bed."
"Is Brother Xu next to you?"
“No.”
Qiao Gang on the other end of the phone immediately showed a disappointed expression.
Brother Xu is not around, so we sleep separately
When Xu Xiuwen came home just now, Qiao Gang had been hiding in the room, secretly looking outside through the crack in the door.
He witnessed it all.
Based on his understanding of Mu Zhilan's character.
She must be very touched.
So he thought tonight was a perfect opportunity.
But now I know that they slept separately.
For a moment, Qiao Gang didn't know whether to say that Xu Xiuwen was too gentlemanly or that his mother was too unattractive.
Qiao Gang lowered his voice, "Mom, when will you be back?"
Mu Zhilan asked, "Is he still at home?"
He was referring to Father Joe.
Qiao Gang said: "He's not at home. He just left."
Mu Zhilan heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that. "Then I'll go back tomorrow night. I have some money under my pillow. You can use it to eat out."
"I see. I'll go to sleep then."
After hanging up the phone.
Qiao Gang felt depressed for a while.
Maybe he should give up this plan
But when I think of the lovely and beautiful Li Ke.
Qiao Gang refused to give up again.
You can only gain if you give.
If he couldn't bear to leave his mother, how could he win Li Ke's favor
Anyway, my parents’ marriage had broken down long ago and was in name only.
By doing this, he was not selling out his mother. Instead, he was helping his indecisive mother to make the best decision.
If Brother Xu really slept with my mother.
Could Brother Xu really just ignore my mother
So he was right!
No words were spoken that night.
The next morning came in a flash.
After Xu Xiuwen got up, he washed up, walked out of the bedroom and went to the living room.
He soon noticed Mu Zhilan who was mopping the floor.
Xu Xiuwen asked in surprise: "Sister Mu, why are you mopping the floor?"
Mu Zhilan heard the voice and turned around to look back.
After seeing Xu Xiuwen, she smiled and said, "I got up early, and since I have nothing to do anyway, I will just mop the floor."
Xu Xiuwen said helplessly: "Actually, it doesn't have to be like this."
Mu Zhilan said, "It's okay, I'll be done soon. Breakfast will be ready soon too, so we can eat later."
"Oh well."
After mopping the floor, Mu Zhilan went to the kitchen, washed her hands, and then walked to the stove.
In the pressure cooker on the stove was the mung bean porridge she cooked.
Mung beans have a detoxifying effect.
Xu Xiuwen drank so much liquor yesterday.
Taking this into consideration, Mu Zhilan got up early and went to the nearby vegetable market to buy some mung beans to cook porridge.
After releasing the gas in the pressure cooker.
Mu Zhilan opened the pressure cooker and then helped Xu Xiuwen serve a bowl of mung bean porridge.
Then she started making pancakes.
Soon she walked towards Xu Xiuwen with the plate, "Xiuwen, you eat first, I'll continue making pancakes."
After saying that, she returned to the kitchen and took out a plate of side dishes.
"I bought this side dish at the market this morning. See if it suits your taste."
Xu Xiuwen was deeply moved.
"Sister Mu, thank you for your hard work. I feel a little embarrassed for you being like this."
Mu Zhilan smiled and said, "It's okay, it's not hard. Eat quickly."
