Chapter 518 A New Love Begins
"How about trying this golden crispy roast duck?" Li Haiyan quickly picked up a piece of golden crispy duck with a serving chopstick and put it in Xiaoai's bowl. Xiaoai usually loves roast duck.
"It's too greasy. I don't want to eat it." Xiaoai refused again.
Li Haiyan was stunned. Usually Xiaoke and Xiaoai are very well-behaved. Even if they really don't like something, they won't refuse it directly. What happened today?
Looking at Mu Jianhua who was picking up food for Baizhi, Li Haiyan understood instantly, and her voice became gentler, "What does Xiaoai want to eat? Tell grandma, okay?"
"I want to eat secret cold caramel vinegar lamb chops, charcoal grilled French pigeon, Chinese ginseng juice black pork knee bone milky white soup, and rain-beaten lotus root, golden osmanthus honey glutinous crisp." When Xiaoai said this, everyone at the table was stunned.
Baizhi understood in her heart, and still drank the soup without waiting for any change.
Mu Jianhua saw that Baizhi didn't say anything, and didn't say anything either.
Li Haiyan was the first to react, and said with a smile: "It's all my fault. I made this little girl picky. It seems I have to go to the kitchen again."
After saying that, Li Haiyan winked at Mo Fangru and stood up and walked towards the kitchen.
"What are these?" Mo Fangru followed Li Haiyan to the kitchen and asked in a low voice, "I have never heard of the dishes she mentioned."
"My little girl is very smart. It's nothing more than sweet and sour lamb chops, roasted pigeon, stewed radish with ribs, and lotus root with osmanthus honey." Li Haiyan said to Mo Fangru with a smile, "Just make more sugar and less vinegar in the sweet and sour pork chops, remember not to put cumin in the roasted pigeon, and don't put cooking wine in the soup. Oh, by the way, remember that the honey in the lotus root with osmanthus honey is multi-flower honey."
Mo Fangru hurriedly told the servants to do as Li Haiyan said.
"Your little ancestor is really hard to serve." Mo Fangru smacked her lips, "It's really hard for you. Such a tricky dish name makes you know what it is as soon as you hear it."
"Actually, Xiaoke and Xiaoai are usually very well-behaved." Li Haiyan whispered in Mo Fangru's ear, "The two children know about Jianhua and Baizhi, and they are deliberately testing you."
"So that's it, no wonder everyone says that the two little grandchildren of the old Song family are extremely smart." Mo Fangru suddenly realized.
However, no matter how smart they are, they are from other families.
Li Haiyan looked at Mo Fangru's face and knew that Mu Chengxun had not convinced her yet. She took her hand and walked towards the restaurant, "The old Song family has good genes. I don't want to brag. Look at our Xiaozhi and Licheng, which one is not extremely smart, so how can these two children not be smart?"
Mo Fangru listened to Li Haiyan's words and had a plan in her heart.
Although Baizhi had given birth to a child and her reputation was not very good, she did look good. Although she was blind, it was acquired and not hereditary.
If she marries Jianhua and gives birth to a pair of beautiful and smart twins for the Mu family, it would be nice.
Back at the dinner table, Mo Fangru's attitude towards Bai Zhi became more attentive. The more she looked at Xiao Ke and Xiao Ai, the cuter she became, and the more she envied her.
Li Haiyan saw everything and sneered in her heart.
Mo Fangru couldn't give birth, and always felt that she owed the Mu family.
For her, nothing was more important than the descendants of the Mu family.
No matter how much she praised, it couldn't poke Mo Fangru's heart. Only things related to the descendants of the Mu family could make Mo Fangru care.
After Bai Zhi lost her eyesight, she became more sensitive to changes in the surrounding environment.
She could clearly feel the changes in Mo Fangru after she came back. It seemed that Li Haiyan had taken action.
"Xiao Zhi, try this Yinyan Yuxing Soup. It's good for your eyes to recover." Mu Jianhua filled a bowl of Yinyan Yuxing Soup and gently placed it next to Bai Zhi.
"Uncle Mu, you are so good to my mommy. Do you want to marry her as your wife?" Xiao Ai suddenly asked.
Mu Jianhua was stunned, then smiled and said, "It depends on whether your mommy is willing."
"Will you be nice to us in the future?" Xiao Ai continued to ask.
"Of course! Xiao Ke and Xiao Ai are so smart and beautiful. Whether your mommy is willing to marry me or not, I will be very good to you." Mu Jianhua also served two bowls of soup to Xiao Ke and Xiao Ai.
"But we are not your children. After a long time, you really won't get tired of us..."
"Xiao Ai, don't talk nonsense." Bai Zhi put down the spoon heavily and interrupted Xiao Ai with a cold face.
"Mommy..." Xiao Ai had never seen Bai Zhi angry, and felt wronged.
Xiao Ke gently pulled Xiao Ai's sleeve under the table, and Xiao Ai stopped talking.
The atmosphere was awkward for a moment, and Mu Chengxun hurriedly picked up the wine glass to change the topic to divert the atmosphere.
Everyone at the table knew it well, but no one wanted to pierce the quilt again. After dinner, they chatted casually for a while, and Song Siming got up and said goodbye.
"Xiaozhi, it's only natural for Xiaoai to ask me this today. You blame her in public, I'm afraid she's sad. Remember to comfort her after you go back." Before leaving, Mu Jianhua said to Baizhi.
"Don't worry, Brother Mu, I know what's going on."
How could she blame her? How could she bear to scold her?
It was just a show for Li Haiyan.
*
As soon as they returned to the Song residence, Xiaoke and Xiaoai returned to their small bedroom.
Song Siming wanted to comfort them, but was directly pulled away by Li Haiyan.
"Let the children solve their own problems. They will have to face these things sooner or later."
Song Siming sighed. He really shouldn't have said these things.
He stopped talking and let Li Haiyan pull him back to the room.
"Mommy is so mean to me. Doesn't Mommy love me anymore?" In the bedroom, Xiaoai was still immersed in sadness.
"I always feel that Mommy is hiding something from us." Xiaoke held her sister's hand, "No matter what happened before, Mommy was reluctant to speak loudly to us, let alone in front of so many people."
Xiaoai thought about it carefully and felt that what her brother said made sense.
"Has Mommy had something wrong? Has she been threatened?" Xiaoai's complaints to Baizhi were instantly thrown out of the window, and only worry remained in her heart.
Baizhi stood at the door, listening to Xiaoke and Xiaoai's discussions, and raised and lowered her hand several times.
In the end, she raised her hand and knocked on the door.
Some things must be made known to them, in order not to continue to hurt them, and in order to leave this place as soon as possible.
"Xiaoke and Xiaoai, can I come in?"
Xiaoke and Xiaoai heard Baizhi's voice and quickly sat up. Xiaoai even pulled the hem of her skirt. After realizing that Baizhi couldn't see her, she lowered her head in annoyance.
"Mommy, come in." Xiaoke said.
Baizhi opened the door and walked in, groping and sitting down beside Xiaoke and Xiaoai's bed with ease.
"Mommy, can you tell us what happened?" Xiao Ke asked seriously, "Why did you and Daddy suddenly become like this?"
"Yes, Mommy, Daddy was so good to Mommy before, but now he doesn't come to see Mommy anymore." Xiao Ai nodded vigorously, "And you seem to have started a new relationship. Does it mean that my brother and I will have to have one home for Dad and one home for Mommy in the future?"
