"I'm going to help in the kitchen." Mu Shaoling kissed Ruan Bai's side of the face gently and walked to the kitchen carrying two bottles of wine.
"Okay." Ruan Bai smiled slightly and followed him to the kitchen with his eyes before looking back.
Zhou Qing was originally dissatisfied with Mu Shaoling for injuring Ruan Bai, but seeing this tender scene, her dissatisfaction gradually subsided.
Sometimes bumps and bruises are unavoidable. Mu Shaoling treats her well and Ruan Bai lives a happy life. As a mother, she can rest assured.
"Xiaobai, come and help me arrange flowers?" Zhou Qing put a black porcelain vase in front of her.
Ruan Bai nodded, trimmed a perfume lily, inserted it into a porcelain bottle, and added nutrients to it.
She had learned to arrange flowers, but she was gifted. Even if she didn't understand, she could arrange the flowers according to her feeling, and it would still look good.
Ruan Bai picked up a bouquet of gypsophila as decoration. She glanced at Zhou Qing and said slowly, "Mom, do you have anything to say when you asked me to come back for dinner this time?"
Zhou Qing smiled softly, shook his head and said, "It's not me, it's your father who has something to say to Shao Ling."
Ruan Bai looked towards the kitchen, there was a certain distance, and he didn't know what the two men were talking about.
She was thoughtful.
Lin Ning came down from the second floor and when she saw Ruan Bai, she was slightly startled, then frowned in disgust.
She was arranging flowers with Zhou Qing, and the two of them were a loving mother and a filial daughter, which was very eye-catching.
Lin Ning was slandering her in her heart. Who could she show to her by pretending to be a well-behaved and virtuous person?
Convinced that everything Ruan Bai did was with bad intentions, Lin Ning was angry and planned to walk out without paying attention. Zhou Qing saw her dressed as if she was going out and asked: "Ning Ning, it's almost time to eat, what are you going to do?"
Where to go?”
Lin Ning stopped and took off his sunglasses, "Mom, I have a dinner party..."
Zhou Qing frowned slightly, "Ning Ning, can you put this dinner aside? Your sister and brother-in-law are here today, and we will have a meal together as a family."
She knew that Lin Ning had always been hostile to Ruan Bai.
Zhou Qing is trying her best to ease the relationship between the two sisters.
When Lin Ning heard that Mu Shaoling was there, she felt happy and scared. She covered her tight coat. She didn't know what would happen to her if she stayed here, so she pretended to be embarrassed: "Mom, I..."
"Ning Ning, you haven't eaten at home for a long time. It's rare for the whole family to get together today, why don't you have a meal with us?" Zhou Qing frowned, thinking that she didn't want to stay because of Ruan Bai, and felt uncomfortable
.
Seeing Zhou Qing's uncomfortable look, Lin Ning felt irritable.
If Lin Wenzheng saw it, he would probably blame himself.
During this period, Lin Wenzheng was no longer patient and kind to her. She thought it was all because of Ruan Bai. His real daughter was back and her adopted daughter was no longer important in his heart.
The more Lin Ning thought about it, the more unbalanced she became. Everything in the Lin family belonged to her.
She walked over and sat next to Zhou Qing, "Mom, I will turn down the dinner, but I have to go out and will be back in about half an hour, is that okay?"
Zhou Qing felt less uncomfortable and held her hand, "Okay, go and come back quickly, okay?"
"Okay, Mom." Lin Ning smiled and kissed Zhou Qing on the cheek provocatively, deliberately doing it to Ruan Bai.
Even though Lin Wenzheng was much colder towards her, she still had Zhou Qing.
Since Zhou Qing recognized Ruan Bai, he was afraid that he would have random thoughts, so he tried his best to be fair and still treat himself well.
Therefore, as long as Zhou Qing's motherly love is grasped, Lin Wenzheng cannot do anything to her no matter how indifferent he is.
Lin Ning stood up and glanced at Ruan Bai. She was arranging flowers beside her, with a tepid expression on her face.
Lin Ning snorted inwardly, holding her coat and leaving.
Ruan Bai glanced at Lin Ning's leaving figure. After the person disappeared, he asked thoughtfully: "Mom, doesn't my sister feel hot?"
The weather was gradually getting warmer, but Lin Ning was still wearing a thick coat, as if she was extremely afraid of the cold.
Zhou Qing replied: "After coming out of that place, Ning Ning's health seemed to be a lot worse. She felt cold at the slightest breeze. She was wearing very thick clothes during this period. She went to see a doctor and said she was fine. Alas, it might be a physical problem.
You must be weak, I have stewed a lot of supplements for her during this period, but it has no effect."
"But..." Ruan Bai stopped talking.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Qing picked up the flowers Ruan Bai had arranged and admired them.
As expected, she is her precious daughter, and her flower arranging style is just like hers.
Ruan Bai shook his head, smiled, and replied: "Nothing."
She just felt that Lin Ning's face had become rounder.
How can a person with poor health gain weight?
The more Ruan Bai thought about it, the weirder he felt.
Zhou Qing held the flowers she had arranged and praised them: "Xiao Bai, the vase you arranged is so beautiful. I want to put it in the living room for everyone to appreciate."
Ruan Bai's face turned slightly red after being praised. She picked up the flowers arranged by Zhou Qing and said, "Mom's flowers are beautiful when she arranges them. They are layered and the colors are harmonious and beautiful. She is indeed a professional. Mom, why don't you teach me?"
Zhou Qing learned flower arranging after marrying Lin Wenzheng, in order to better set off his identity. Over the years, this skill has not fallen behind. She played with the flowers on the coffee table and said, "I just need some more flowers, let me teach you.
, you pick a vase."
"Okay." Ruan Bai sat closer, picked a sky blue porcelain vase, and studied with Zhou Qing.
In the kitchen.
Mu Shaoling handed two bottles of red wine to Lin Wenzheng, "Father-in-law, I heard that you like wine tasting. I brought these two bottles of wine from an auction abroad some time ago and sent them to you to taste."
Lin Wenzheng was very pleased. Mu Shaoling understood this way of life well.
These two bottles of wine relieved some of the dissatisfaction in his heart.
Lin Wenzheng still kept a straight face and asked pretending to be serious: "You are trying to bribe me, do you understand?"
Mu Shaoling shook his head. He and Ruan Bai were indeed father and daughter, and they said the same thing.
"This is what I gave to my father-in-law as a tribute. It doesn't count." He put the two bottles of wine in the wine cabinet.
Lin Wen was handling lobsters. When he saw Mu Shaoling rolling up his sleeves, he asked, "Do you want to help?"
"Well." He chose a black apron and put it on, "You cook for your mother-in-law and Xiaobai, and I want to cook for them too."
Lin Wenzheng handed him the unwashed side dishes, "I didn't expect you to have such thoughts. Yes, you can clean these side dishes."
Mu Shaoling took it and stood next to the sink, "Father-in-law, you asked your mother-in-law to call Xiaobai, right?"
Although it was a question, the tone was definite. Lin Wenzheng looked more appreciative and nodded and said, "Yes."
It was not easy for Mu Shaoling to guess it with just one phone call.
Lin Wenzhengzheng said: "Although Xiaobai said it's okay, the current incident has made a big fuss on the Internet, and there are even reporters blocking the door of your villa. What are you going to do?"
He is Ruan Bai's father, so of course he cares about her situation.
"This matter will be resolved in two days." Mu Shaoling washed the vegetables carefully, remembering that Ruan Bai couldn't eat seafood, and wanted to get her some eggs and lean meat later.
