Ji Nuan sat here and greeted Mo Jingshen's mother politely one after another. When Mo Jingshen walked in, he saw Ji Nuan's pampered expression.
It was very hot in the living room. There was a fireplace commonly seen in the West on the wall not far away, facing her direction. The little woman seemed to have forgotten to take off her coat. At this moment, she didn’t know whether it was because she was embarrassed or because she was feeling hot. Vaguely red.
Mo Jingshen's eyebrows raised slightly, and there was a slight smile in his eyes: "If you don't take off your clothes, I will roast you for the New Year's Eve dinner."
Only then did Wan Zhu react. She looked at Ji Nuan with a smile and said, "Girl, why haven't you taken off your coat yet? It's twenty-seven or eight degrees in this room. It's so hot. Give me your coat quickly and ask someone to help you." Take it and hang it up.”
Ji Nuan then hurriedly took off her coat, handed the clothes to the servant who came over, and nodded to the servant in thanks.
As if she noticed that Ji Nuan is very different now from the time she just got married, Ms. Wanzhu smiled and said, "The last time I saw you was at your wedding to Jing Shen. You were actually very afraid of life at that time. Right? Now it seems that the relationship between you two is getting better and better, and you are no longer so unfamiliar with me? "
"I was indeed a little afraid of strangers that day. I wasn't very polite at the time. Don't mind." It was because of this that Ji Nuan felt a little embarrassed now.
"I don't mind, I don't mind. When I was young, when I first got married, I was very disgusted with the relatives of the Mo family. I didn't know any of them, but every one of them had to come and say hello to me. I was obviously annoyed. You have to keep smiling even though you are very tired. I understand this feeling very well. It will be fine if you wait for a long time and gradually become familiar with it." Wan Zhu said as she turned to look at Mo Jingshen: "Depth of field, is the injury really not serious? ?I heard that you stayed in the hospital for a long time."
"It's okay." Mo Jingshen was quite gentle to his mother, with a dismissive tone, which was completely different from the cold stare between Mo Shaoze.
"That's good. You haven't been back for a long time. Since you are bringing Nuannuan back this time, why not just stay at home for a few days. Everyone in the country is on vacation now. If there is nothing urgent, don't rush back."
"It depends on the situation."
It's rare that Mo Jingshen didn't refuse directly.
Mr. Su and Su Zhilan entered the door together with Mo Shaoze at this time. Seeing Ji Nuan being pulled by Mo Jingshen's mother to talk about family matters, Mr. Su smiled and said: "The news of Jingshen's marriage is really sudden. It was not known at all before. I know, I didn’t expect that this year would be a coincidence, and I would be lucky enough to meet Mrs. Mo.”
Ji Nuan turned around when he heard the voice, stood up and nodded politely to Mr. Su: "Hello."
Mr. Su smiled and nodded to her. Although he was smiling, it was obvious that the smile did not reach his eyes. He looked at her twice more and then turned to talk to Mo Shaoze. Ji Nuan's eyes met Su Zhilan's, and Su Zhilan, however, looked away thoughtfully. Ji Nuan, who was being yelled at by Mo Jingshen's mother, daughter-in-law, and daughter-in-law, obviously did not intend to face him directly.
When Ji Nuan sat down again, Mo Jingshen had already put down his coat. He hadn't returned to the company for a while, and he didn't need to keep showing his identity as the president of the Mo Corporation. The man was tall and straight. The paleness and weakness in the hospital a few days ago had faded away. He was now He was only wearing a white sweater and straight trousers that neatly wrapped his slender legs. He was stylishly dressed and very conspicuous in this Western-style villa that didn't have much Spring Festival atmosphere. He sat down lazily with Ji. On the sofa on the same side of Nuan, when he heard Wan Zhu greeting Ji Nuan all the time, he looked at them silently with a smile on his lips.
Mo Jingshen has indeed not been back for many years. Even the servants who have watched him grow up don't know whether to call him Young Master Mo or call him Mr. Mo like everyone else. An older servant saw him coming back. , seemed particularly happy, and stepped forward and stuffed the freshly washed red apple into his hand.
One look at the other person and you know that you must have watched him grow up.
Mo Jingshen didn't refuse, he just sat here, holding a red apple in his hand. His fingers were slender and the joints were clear. It may be that he had been in the hospital for a long time and had not been exposed to the sun for a long time. His skin was whiter than before. The skin color was obviously different from the red of an apple. He smiled lightly and asked the old servant a few words.
It seemed that in front of his mother and these old servants of the Mo family, Mo Jingshen would put on a different temperament, as gentle as jade, approachable, and much warmer than his usual attitude towards others.
Later, Mr. Su and the others were invited by Mo Shaoze to sit across from each other and chat together. When they talked about the reasons for Mo Jingshen and Ji Nuan's marriage, Mo Jingshen looked as usual and his eyes flickered over their faces: "Today is the Spring Festival in China. On the day of family reunion, it seems that what we should talk about is not my marriage."
Su Zhilan took over the words at this time: "Yes, this is Ji Nuan's first time coming to Mo's house. She probably isn't very familiar with the inside and outside of this place. Grandpa, if you talk to Uncle Mo like this, she will definitely feel uncomfortable."
"I'm fine." Ji Nuan said, "After all, it's my own home, so why should I feel uncomfortable?"
The smile on Su Zhilan's face faded, she paused and then said: "That's good. I see that Aunt Zhu is very enthusiastic towards you, as if she was afraid that you wouldn't get used to it. She originally wanted Aunt Zhu to go and work on her first. Yes, I will accompany you for a walk around Mo's house."
At this point, Su Zhilan laughed again, as if she didn't notice Ji Nuan's indifferent expression and cold perfunctory expression at all, and said with a smile: "The Mohist family in America and the Mohist family in Haicheng should be very different. Well, there are some Roman statues from the 1980s collected by Uncle Mo behind here. I am amazed every time I look at them. Miss Ji, do you want to go and take a look, and I can help you lead the way?"
Ji Nuan smiled faintly: "I don't know much about Roman statues. Since Dad has specially collected these, he must be an expert. A layman like me should not show his timidity. Pretending to know something is the most embarrassing thing."
"I just see that Miss Ji, you seem to be uncomfortable with the atmosphere and environment of the Mo family sitting here, and I want to take you out for a walk." Su Zhilan curled her lips and said, "It's just for a visit. Does it matter to you if you are an expert? What about the relationship?"
"If Nuan Nuan doesn't like it, there's no need to go and look at those things in the back. Those are the things that Depth of Field's father collected more than ten years ago. I usually don't bother to ask anyone to clean them up." Ms. Wan Zhu spoke at this time : "Nuan Nuan has been staying here for the past two days. She spends a lot of time walking around the house. She just came back now. Sit down for a while and have a good rest. There is no rush."
Su Zhilan was about to speak, because the person who opened the mouth to smooth things over was Mo Jingshen's mother. She didn't say anything more for a while, and just smiled: "Aunt Zhu is right, the first time you come to Mo's house, you always have to Stay for a night or two, otherwise the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will be so unfamiliar that they will feel like strangers."
