Chapter 586 The dead are gone, the living are more important
"What else can I do? Of course I'm here to have breakfast with you."
"If I had to keep you company every time, I would have starved to death. I never see you running to me so diligently."
Mrs. Shao said she was disgusted, but her expression showed pleasure.
"I'm not busy as usual. I'm not busy these days, so I take the time to come to you more often. What did I eat this morning? I'm already hungry."
When Mrs. Shao heard her son cry out that he was hungry, she handed the kettle to the servant behind her and explained a few words carefully before leading her son to the restaurant.
I met Mrs. Hua on the way and learned that Shao Lin was going to have breakfast at Lanju. She immediately happily went to the kitchen to prepare dishes.
"What is that in your hand?"
Noticing the silver-gray titanium cup in her son's hand, Mrs. Shao couldn't help but curiously asked.
"This -"
Shao Lin showed the titanium cup in his hand and said with a smile: "This is the thermos cup Momo gave me. She told me to drink more water and take good care of my body."
Looking at the smile on her son's face that was worse than a flower, Mrs. Shao finally understood her son's intention of coming here so early in the morning.
A broken cup is far worse than the two pots of peerless orchids that my granddaughter gave her, and I don’t know what to show off!
Mrs. Shao felt extremely disgusted, but she could not take her eyes away from the titanium cup.
It is true that the shape and material of this thermos cup are too strange. She has never seen such a thermos cup in most of her life.
"Mom, do you want to take a look? This thermos cup that Momo gave me is quite interesting. I don't know what kind of metal it is. The whole cup body is integrated, the color is luxurious, and the shape is beautiful. It is simply a piece of ingenious art.
It’s so delicious, I’m quite reluctant to use it to drink water.”
Mrs. Shao was already curious about the cup. After hearing what her son said, she took the cup and looked at it carefully.
Looking at it, it is true as my son said, the whole cup is completely integrated, and it is impossible to tell what kind of craftsmanship and material it is.
After admiring it carefully for a while, Mrs. Shao returned the titanium cup to her son.
"Momo is interested."
"Yeah, even though it's just a cup for drinking water, the intention is not ordinary at all. Mom, Momo is so well-behaved and sensible. You should speak more words to her at the family meeting tomorrow."
Mrs. Shao glanced at her son angrily, "You don't need to tell me, Momo is also my granddaughter."
"Yes, yes, mom, just think I'm talkative. Oh, breakfast is here. Eat, eat, eat. I have a meeting in the morning and I have to go to the company early."
Shao Lin ate breakfast as quickly as possible, wiping his mouth with a towel in one hand and picking up the thermos cup in the other.
"Mom, I've finished eating. You eat slowly. I'm leaving first."
Seeing her son rushing to leave before finishing the food in his mouth, Mrs. Shao couldn't help scolding her, "Slow down, you don't know what to panic about. How big of a difference can a delay of one or two minutes affect?"
"At this morning's meeting, several veteran shareholders are coming. If I were late, they would have been nagging each other for half an hour."
After Shao Lin finished speaking, he hurried away while Mrs. Shao continued to have breakfast.
Seeing that she had only eaten two mouthfuls of porridge, Mrs. Shao couldn't help complaining to Mrs. Hua, "You said you came to have breakfast with me, it's better not to come, and it will save you an extra pair of dishes and chopsticks."
Sister-in-law Hua smiled and said: "As long as I come here every day, I will be happy if I wash ten more sets of dishes, let alone one more set.
Madam, haven't you noticed that since I met the eldest lady, my whole person seems to have come alive and I am happy all day long."
"I think he is getting better and better as he gets older."
"Oh, I'm obviously getting younger as I live. Madam, please try today's crystal shrimp dumplings. I made them myself. I made two baskets in total. I sent the other one to the eldest lady.
."
The shrimp dumplings were thin and filled with fillings, and each one was crystal clear. Mrs. Shao picked up one and brought it to her mouth.
"Well, it's not bad. The shrimps are big enough and the meat filling is fresh enough."
"It's the big prawns I didn't use up yesterday. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to keep them overnight, so I simply peeled them off and used them to make shrimp dumplings. I didn't add any other seasonings except salt and green onions. I just used broth to enhance the flavor."
"Please take the trouble. Two are enough for me. You can take the rest and eat it. After all the hard work, you can also taste it."
"Hey, thank you, madam."
By the time we had eaten breakfast, the sun was already half high.
Mrs. Shao first went to see how the flowers and plants were watered in the yard, then went back to the bedroom and took out the jewelry she had picked out before to give to her granddaughter.
There was a box of pearls and jade jewelry, each piece of which was her collection and carefully selected, but now it seemed so tacky.
The granddaughter has a beautiful and refined appearance, and her skin is whiter than snow, which makes her possessions of gold and jade seem too gaudy.
After some sifting, only a pair of mutton-fat jade bracelets and a string of rice pearl necklaces were left.
She couldn't get her hands on this little thing.
Mrs. Shao thought with some disgust, then turned around and told Mrs. Hua, "Take the other things back to the warehouse, and find my Nanhong bracelet by the way."
Sister-in-law Hua looked surprised, "Madam, are you planning to give the Nanhong bracelet to the eldest lady? That is a pearl wedding gift given to you by the master, and you are reluctant to wear it yourself."
Southern red agate is indeed precious, but for Mrs. Shao, what is more valuable is its meaning.
It was not only one of the few gifts given to her by her husband after he became seriously ill, but also a testament to their 30-year marriage.
Her husband died the following year, and in the past ten years, she had only worn this Nanhong bracelet twice.
Although she always said that she was afraid of seeing things and thinking about emotions, in fact she has never been able to let go of her husband's death.
However, at this moment, she decided to let go of the pain in her heart. The dead are gone, and the living are more important.
"Bring it here, the southern red string is bright and suitable for Momo's age. Ze Yuanquan is knowledgeable and will agree with my idea. He left early and didn't see his granddaughter in person, so he thought I was for him.
Give your granddaughter a meeting gift."
Sister-in-law Hua nodded repeatedly with wet eyes, "Madam, it's the best you can think of. I'll go get the things."
At the other end of the garden, Yun Mo has just gotten up.
Last night, she planted a lot of fruits and vegetables that she could eat every day in the second floor. She was busy working until midnight before going to bed. As expected, she got up late this morning.
By the time she finished washing and getting dressed and walked out of the bedroom door, the sun was already almost three in the sky.
Looking at my watch, I saw that there was less than ten minutes left before the appointment time with Zeng Fang.
Lingchuan came over with breakfast, "Daughter-in-law, let's have breakfast first."
"I'm not going to eat. I have to go out quickly. Fangfang and the others will be impatient after a while. You go ask Uncle Fu to prepare the car. I'll go back to the room to get my bag."
While speaking, Yun Mo glanced at the dinner plate held by the man. When she saw the crystal shrimp dumplings, which were crystal clear and exuded an alluring aroma, her stomach immediately began to beat with disappointment.
Hearing her stomach growling with hunger, Lingchuan quickly freed up a hand, picked up a shrimp and fed it to her mouth.
"Have you washed your hands?"
As he asked this question, his body raised his head honestly and took the shrimp dumplings into his mouth.
"Washed, does it taste good?"
Yun Mo nodded, who knew it was delicious? It was so delicious!
Maybe it's because I'm hungry. Faced with such a plate of crystal shrimp dumplings that are full of color, aroma, and deliciousness, even if I have steely willpower, I have to turn my fingers around.
The sky is huge, and eating is the biggest. If you are late for a date, just be late. If you are late for ten minutes, the earth will explode.
Yun Mo sat down at the dining table with peace of mind, picked up her chopsticks and started eating her breakfast.
