Chapter 1498 Chinese New Year (3)
"We haven't seen each other for just a few days, and my sweet grandson is already so old?" Jing Beitang stroked his beard and looked at Wushuang's belly happily and said with a smile.
"Isn't it? It's a lot bigger than when I returned to Xia Garden a few days ago." Xia Jingshan also said with a smile.
Wushuang was a little embarrassed by the elders. Mu Jinchen finally came in, took his young wife's hand and helped her out, "Please take a seat."
"Grandpa, go write the Spring Festival couplets. Send me the tea here. Jingshan, you can also write two couplets."
"That's good."
Taishan Beidou, the Xia family and the Jing family, went to the sandalwood table to write Spring Festival couplets.
Mu Baichuan loved this kind of atmosphere. The older a person got, the more he hoped that his grandchildren would be there for him and enjoy a few more days of family happiness. Nothing else mattered.
The men at home were drinking tea in the side hall, Mu Zhilan went to stare at the kitchen, and Wushuang took Xia Muxue aside to chat.
"Mom, have you been very busy at work recently?" Wushuang felt a little heartbroken when he saw that Xia Muxue seemed to have lost a lot of weight.
Xia Muxue was really overwhelmed by the sudden increase in work intensity, but she couldn't let her daughter worry.
She shook her head, "It's a little bit at first, but it will get better gradually. By the way, has your cousin contacted you?"
Speaking of her niece, Xia Muxue couldn't help but frown again. Logically, she should come back after the matter was resolved, but she didn't seem to have such plans. Every time she called, she could feel that she was hesitant to speak. She didn't know why. It wasn't her imagination, she could feel the vague sadness through the overseas phone call.
Wushuang shook his head, "I haven't received a call or email from her for several days. I don't know what I have been busy with recently. I always feel a little mysterious. Mom, do you think nothing will happen to her? "
"It's not that something happened, but she must be hiding something from us. All the messy things in S City have been solved, and the rumors have finally passed. If she calls you again, remember to ask her to come back. It's not okay for her to be a girl wandering outside. OK."
The Xia family was already thin, and the future of the Xia family depended on Xia Ziwei. Xia Muxue was somewhat tolerant of her.
"I know mom."
As soon as Wushuang finished speaking, her cell phone rang, a series of irregular numbers. She raised her eyes and looked at her mother, "Mom, it looks like an overseas call."
Xia Muxue's charming eyes flashed with light, "You take it first."
"Hello. Who is this?"
"Wushuang, it's me." It was Xia Ziwei's voice on the other end of the phone.
Wushuang suddenly became excited, "Cousin, my mother and I just talked about you. By the way, when will you come back? Or are you at the airport now?"
Wushuang wondered if she would come back to celebrate the New Year.
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and a slightly suppressed voice sounded faintly, "Wushuang, remember to say Happy New Year to everyone in the family tomorrow, especially grandpa. I am fine here, but I can't go back in the short term... coming."
Wushuang frowned, somewhat disapproving, "Cousin, the rumors in S City have been suppressed, and there will be no more rumors in the future. You can rest assured to come back. Besides, we all want you to come back."
The other end of the phone fell into silence again, and it took a long time before Xia Ziwei's voice rang, "Wushuang, I promise you, I will definitely go back in eight months. Now, ugh... I won't tell you anymore, I have something to do here."
The time now is mid-February of the following year, and Wushuang’s belly should be more than seven months old. Did Jenny remember correctly? Jenny has been a little dizzy recently, please forgive me, especially those who corrected Jenny's mistakes, thank you.
