1441. Chapter 1441 Another Year (Part 2)

It’s a new year soon, and it’s time for people who have been busy outside for a year to return home. On the morning of New Year’s Eve, the whole city is empty, much emptier than before.

In Fengju, after breakfast, Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye went to the cemetery to pay homage to Wang Hui and the others, and then returned to Shen's house, planning to have lunch here before rushing back to Mu Yuchen. Old house.

Shen Wenna got up early in the morning and prepared the ingredients. Xi Mushan also helped. Shen Yue wrote the Spring Festival couplets himself with great interest. Mu Zirui watched from the side with a small writing brush in his hand and followed suit. .

When Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye returned to Shen's house with Mu Xiaocheng in their arms, Shen Yue had already written several Spring Festival couplets. When he saw Mu Yuchen passing by later, he asked Mu Yuchen to show off his skills.

Xi Xiaye did not disturb them. She put the sleeping Mu Xiaocheng on the sofa next to him, covered him with a quilt and let them watch, and then went to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Shen Wenna and Xi Mushan were busy handling the fish. Xi Mushan was preparing the plate and Shen Wenna was seasoning the fish. The couple were working in perfect harmony.

Xi Xiaye originally wanted to walk in, but hesitated and finally backed out.

"What's wrong?"

He turned around and walked a few steps forward when he saw a man coming over to pour a glass of warm water and drink it.

"It's okay, let them be busy."

Xi Xiaye reached out and took the water glass in his hand, drank the water in a few sips, and continued, "I heard from Mother Wu that they are getting along very well recently, which made me feel relieved a lot, and grandpa didn't feel any better. It’s really not easy to get to where you are today if you have any unhappiness.”

Xi Xiaye said, looking at the busy figures in the kitchen, then turned around and looked up at Mu Yuchen silently.

Mu Yuchen glanced at her indifferently, silently took the cup from her hand, and asked in a low voice, "Do you want more?"

"No, it's almost time. Let's go and post the Spring Festival couplets first. Xiao Rui's handwriting seems to be quite straight and clean."

As she spoke, she also walked towards Shen Yue. At this time, Mu Zirui put down the brush in his hand and pulled Shen Yue beside him to let him see what she had written. Shen Yue He also looked over with a smile.

"I have been studying with my grandpa for a long time recently, and I can basically write some words. Writing also depends on the state of mind. It is good for him to cultivate his character more."

Mu Yuchen's deep voice came.

Xi Xiaye listened and smiled, "In your eyes, everything can be seen in your mentality. You can't change your habit of looking at people no matter where you go. I'm not like you. I have discussed it with you. We In the future, children cannot be forced to do this or that. I hope they have a happier and more relaxed childhood. Things like self-motivation actually have a lot to do with us. We just need to set a good example for our children in daily life. Well, many ideas should not be imposed on them.”

"Madam Yingming! When did you have such profound feelings? Weren't you worried before?"

He looked at her in disbelief, and raised a faint arc at the corner of his mouth.

But she gave him a roll of her eyes and said, "You must feel that way! I think a mediocre way of living is not bad at all. There is nothing wrong with ordinary people doing ordinary things. Naturally, it is also good to be proactive. I was thinking in my heart, as long as I am free from illness and disaster, safe and healthy, and generally satisfied, I will be fine. As you know, I actually have no fighting spirit. "

"What kind of fighting spirit do you need? That's a man's thing."

He naturally agreed with her words, "Otherwise you will be very tired. Do you think those strong women like to be strong women?"

He seemed to understand the mood of those women very well.

"I don't like it, but I have no choice. Who doesn't want to be an intellectual, elegant and beautiful woman? I used to be a proud and proud man, but after following you, I lost my fighting spirit."

"At that time, you were just a weakling, but you were still a proud and strong-willed man? A man carrying a bucket with one hand and dared to walk on the street wearing big pants and slippers on a hot day. Do you dare? These three words are a compliment, do you understand? "

"You mean I'm not worthy of those three words?"

When Miss Xia Ye heard this, she immediately frowned and glanced at him coldly.

He raised his handsome eyebrows and said with a low smile, "Your IQ and EQ have improved a lot recently. You are the only person worthy of someone like me."

Xi Xiaye...

By the time they put up the Spring Festival couplets and washed their hands, it was already past four in the afternoon. Shen Wenna and Xi Mushan had also prepared dinner. The whole family sat around and had an early New Year's Eve dinner.

Shen Yue was in a good mood. He and Xi Mushan and Mu Yuchen also had two more drinks at the table, and they were in high spirits.

Shen Wenna and Xi Mushan were also very happy. It seemed that they had not sat down and had a New Year's Eve dinner so relaxedly for a long time. Today was a rare reunion.

After the meal, Shen Wenna and Xi Xiaye, mother and daughter, were cleaning up and washing the dishes in the kitchen.

"Xia Ye, please thank Ah Chen for me. Over the past few years, I'm really satisfied. Last night, I told your father about you and your wife. It's not easy for you, especially for me. It’s about your father and the Xi family.”

Having said this, Shen Wenna suddenly paused for a while, then turned her head and looked at Xi Xiaye, who was still washing dishes silently, "Actually, to be honest, if it weren't for you, I might not have started over with your father. I and you After what happened to your father, I have been deeply reflecting on myself..."

"You are a good mother, at least to me, you are still a good mother. I didn't necessarily understand your coldness towards me at that time. Later, I found that you also... Anyway, I am grateful to you for not raising me to be that kind of extreme person. Mother, in fact, you have a good heart. On this point, I admire you and respect you as a daughter."

"Most of the time, people have to go through it personally before they can truly understand many things and truths, but the price is too heavy. I hope you will never have the opportunity to try this. You, just be good to Achen. He will be the one who will accompany you until old age. Xiaorui and Xiaocheng will still leave you when they grow up, just like you will leave your mother now."

"Accompany until old age? Then, mother, are you deeply in love with your father again now?"

Hearing Shen Wenna's words, Xi Xiaye paused for a moment, and a faint voice came over. A smile also appeared on her face, and her eyes were full of expectation.
