Mr. Mu shook his head repeatedly and said: "It's boring, boring. You have to wait until Shao Ling comes back on New Year's Eve before you can accompany me."
The housekeeper smiled. The only person in this family who could play a game of chess with the old man was Mu Shaoling.
Mr. Mu added: "Give me your phone. I still have to find out what happened to the woman Zhang Yali brought back."
"Master, please wait a moment." The housekeeper walked to Mr. Mu's bedroom, took out his mobile phone, and handed it to him.
Mr. Mu called Mu Shaoling.
After a while, Mu Shaoling answered the phone, "Grandpa, what's the matter?"
"I heard that Zhang Yali brought someone back? Isn't it the translator you hired?" Mr. Mu asked.
"Well, the translator is still abroad and I have no plans to come back." Mu Shaoling paused and then said, "That woman is a nurse at a plastic surgery institution."
"Why did she bring a nursing staff back?" Mr. Mu was puzzled by Zhang Yali's behavior.
"I don't know." Mu Shaoling said. After leaving, he asked the Korean translator about the woman's identity and was confirmed to be a nurse who had a good relationship with Zhang Yali in the hospital.
"Okay, I don't want to get involved in her affairs. As my son, you can handle it yourself." Mr. Mu said, although Zhang Yali behaved strangely, he had no intention of delving into her affairs.
"Yeah." Mu Shaoling responded.
Mr. Mu asked again: "By the way, you come back to watch the New Year's Eve, you know, right?"
"The housekeeper has informed you." Mu Shaoling said.
"Bring Nian Mu with you. She is alone in the country and has no relatives. Bring her here to watch the New Year together." Mr. Mu said. Although Nian Mu cannot get the certificate from Mu Shaoling for the time being, he likes this girl very much, so
I just thought of letting her come over.
"I mentioned it to her, but she refused." Mu Shaoling paused and said, "Since she doesn't want to, it's better not to do it. The atmosphere of this year's New Year is probably not going to be too good."
Mr. Mu thought, yes.
Even if Zhang Yali is placed in a small villa, she will definitely come over during the Chinese New Year.
As long as Zhang Yali comes back, Cai Xiufen and her will definitely have constant quarrels.
It was a wise choice for Nian Mu not to come over. Mr. Mu thought to himself that the family scandal would not be publicized. Nian Mu was right to do this.
"Okay, then remember to bring the children back. I haven't seen my precious great-grandchildren for a long time." Mr. Mu warned.
What he said happened to be heard by Cai Xiufen who was coming downstairs.
Baby great-grandson?
I bet Zhang Yali’s grandchildren are treasures, but her Tianyu family is not!
Cai Xiufen secretly took note of Mr. Mu's words, walked to the living room as if nothing had happened, and sat down again.
Mr. Mu ended the call with Mu Shaoling, handed the phone to the housekeeper, motioned for him to put it away, and then continued to look at the chess game. It was an endgame, and he had not found a way to solve it until now.
Cai Xiufen cleared her throat and asked, "Dad, were you talking to Shaoling on the phone just now?"
"Yeah." Mr. Mu didn't look up and touched his chin, his mind focused on the endgame.
Cai Xiufen took advantage of the situation and asked: "Zhang Yali is back, will she also come here to celebrate the New Year on New Year's Eve?"
"Why, when she comes over, are you going to quarrel with her again?" Mr. Mu looked away from the chess game and rolled his eyes at her.
Cai Xiufen smiled awkwardly and said, "Dad, I don't want to quarrel with her. Isn't she the one who starts the trouble every time?"
"Whoever stirred up trouble ended up being the two of you who caused the Mu family to never have peace?" Mr. Mu snorted coldly.
"She'll be fine if she doesn't pick things up. I'm too lazy to argue. It's the Chinese New Year." Cai Xiufen rolled her eyes. How could her grudge with Zhang Yali be resolved so easily?
Mr. Mu did not answer her words.
Cai Xiufen's statement that she would not quarrel with Zhang Yali is not credible.
Cai Xiufen saw that the old man stopped talking to her, so she stopped asking for trouble to talk, so as not to make the old man unhappy.
In the blink of an eye.
It's New Year's Eve.
Nian Mu knew that Mu Shaoling would take his children back to his old house in the afternoon, so he got up early and cleaned up the villa with Aunt Wu.
Although no one should come during the Chinese New Year, it is natural to clean up the new year and new atmosphere.
Aunt Wu has already cleaned the villa to a good extent in the past two days. Today she only needs to clean it up briefly and put some festive couplets on the door.
Nian Mu took out the items to be used for decoration and planned to arrange them before Aunt Wu went on vacation.
The children knew that they would decorate the New Year objects today, so they got up early to help decorate.
Two hours later, the entire villa was decorated.
Nian Mu looked at the villa that had many festive elements added to it, with a slight smile on his lips.
She liked this kind of festive atmosphere so much, especially the festivals she celebrated with Mu Shaoling.
"Ms. Nian, I just saw this in the storage room. Do you want to hang it up?" Aunt Wu came over and asked, carrying a bag of red lanterns.
Nian Mu took a look and saw that these lanterns were to be hung on the trees in the garden.
If it is hung up, it will look great at night. Although Mu Shaoling will not be at the villa tonight, he will be back tomorrow. She nodded and said, "Yes, I will hang it up now."
"Okay, I'll get the ladder." Aunt Wu nodded and walked into the storage room again.
Ruanruan on the side asked: "Sister, are you here to hang up?"
"Well, this kind of small lamp looks good hanging on the tree." Nian Mu said.
"But climbing the ladder is too dangerous, so let dad do it." Ruanruan suggested.
"No, please don't bother Mr. Mu with such a small matter." Nian Mu shook his head. After Mu Shaoling got up and had breakfast, he went to the bedroom to handle the work.
She didn't want to disturb him over such a trivial matter.
"Sister, isn't this a trivial matter? Dad is the most suitable person to do this kind of thing. I'll call him." Taotao rolled her eyes and hurried upstairs.
Nianmu didn't even have time to call Taotao.
After a while, Taotao took Mu Shaoling's hand and walked downstairs, "Sister, this kind of thing should be done by dad."
"Well, I should be the one to do it." Mu Shaoling said. When he saw Aunt Wu walking out carrying the ladder, he stepped forward to take it and looked at Nian Mu, "You are here to guide me. Hang it wherever you are told."
.”
"Okay..." Nianmu nodded, took out the coat from the hanger and handed it to him.
Mu Shaoling put down the ladder and put on his coat.
Ruanruan picked up a scarf and gloves aside and said, "Dad, it's cold outside, keep warm."
"Okay." Mu Shaoling smiled, she was very happy to be surrounded by the care of the big and small.
After taking measures to keep warm, Mu Shaoling picked up the ladder and walked out with Nian Mu.
Nian Mu was carrying a heavy bag in her hand. The number of lanterns in it was enough to surround the villa, so she had to plan carefully how to hang them.
