After being scolded, Cai Xiufen no longer dared to speak.
Nian Mu lowered her eyes. When the cook said that this was specially prepared by Mu Shaoling, her heart was already in a state of confusion.
What she had on her body was just a minor injury...
Mr. Mu followed the cook's words and asked with concern: "Ms. Nian, why didn't you tell me you were injured? I'm really embarrassed to help take care of the children when I'm running back and forth."
"They are all minor injuries, nothing serious." Nian Mu shook her head gently and took a sip of the soup. The rich taste of medicinal herbs penetrated her taste buds.
This soup contains not only these herbs, but also some tonic herbs.
Nian Mu scooped up a spoon and sniffed it, confirming that there were indeed tonic medicinal materials in it.
It's okay for young people like them to drink tonics. It's just that at Mr. Mu's age, taking tonics at the right time can strengthen the body, but if they drink too much, they will be weak and not replenished.
Nian Mu's movements were noticed by Mu Shaoling, and this small movement caught his attention.
Nian Mu didn't notice that Mu Shaoling was already paying attention to him, thinking that the cook had worked in the Mu family for so many years, so there was no way she would frame Mr. Mu.
However, even though the cook has many years of work experience, there are some things she doesn't understand.
Taotao, who was sitting next to Nian Mu, took a sip of the soup, frowned instantly, tugged on her clothes, and complained: "Sister, this soup tastes terrible, why do you want to drink it?"
Nian Mu thought to herself that it was not she who wanted to drink, but Mu Shaoling who asked them to drink.
Do the other tonics in this soup have anything to do with him?
Nianmu quickly denied his suspicion.
Mu Shaoling looked indifferent, but he loved Mr. Mu who raised him very much, so he would not do this at all.
"These are all tonics. Although they are unpleasant to drink, they are good for young people's health. Drink them quickly." Nian Mu emphasized deliberately.
No matter who administered the tonic, he would definitely feel guilty if he heard what she said.
Cai Xiufen felt guilty after hearing her words.
She was talking about young people just now, and there were tonics, so she didn’t know anything, right?
Glancing at Nian Mu, she was feeding Taotao soup, spoonful by spoonful, very patiently.
Cai Xiufen breathed a sigh of relief. It might be a coincidence that she said such words.
Nianmu finished feeding the entire bowl of soup, drank his own soup, and then ate.
During the whole process, he didn't say anything, but he was already very conflicted in his heart about whether he should tell Mu Shaoling or not.
The reason for her confusion was simple. If this tonic was only taken once in a while, it would have little effect on Mr. Mu's health, but if it was taken every day or used frequently, it might be.
But usually, she didn't know whether she added it or not.
After eating, Nian Mu planned to leave.
When the housekeeper was about to arrange for Uncle Zhang to send Nian Mu back, Mr. Mu said, "Uncle Zhang has a cold. Let him rest. Shaoling, please send Ms. Nian home."
Let Mu Shaoling deliver it? When Nian Mu was about to refuse, Mu Shaoling said: "Well, okay."
After saying that, he stood up.
Nianmu looked at him and had no choice but to leave.
Taotao also followed Nianmu's footsteps and walked out of the living room, holding her hand and saying, "Sister, can't you stay here tonight? There is space in my bed. If you think it's too crowded for one bed, we still have one.
There are many guest rooms.”
Hearing that the child was trying to save him, Nian Mu smiled and touched his head, "I've been bothering you all day, so I won't stay. Be good, I'll come see you next time."
Hearing this, Taotao watched Mu Shaoling drive slowly over and said, "Okay, sister, remember to tell us the rest of the story."
The story Nian Mu told today hasn't come to an end yet. She promised her children that she would go back and record the rest of the story with a voice recorder before giving it to them.
"Okay." Looking at the car parked in front of him, Nianmu pinched the child's fleshy face, walked to the passenger door, opened the door, and got in.
Mu Shaoling drove the car and left the Mu family's old house.
Cai Xiufen stood by the floor-to-ceiling window and saw Mu Shaoling driving away. She sighed, "Dad, Uncle Zhang didn't catch a cold at all. Why are you doing this?"
Mr. Mu glanced at her and snorted coldly: "Why do you care so much?"
"Aren't I curious?" Cai Xiufen was shocked by his harsh tone and felt a little unconvinced.
"You should stay out of this matter. I heard that Ruicheng is moving to the company recently. If you have nothing to do, you can go and help." Mr. Mu was really annoyed that she would gossip about everything when she had nothing to do.
Mentioning Murui Cheng's company, Cai Xiufen snorted, "I don't want it. He can handle such a small company by himself."
Mr. Mu looked at her attitude and shook his head helplessly.
She has always been very dissatisfied with the fact that Murui Cheng left T Group to start his own business, and even persuaded him to return to T Group many times.
However, Murui Cheng's studio gradually became better, so he didn't agree, so the mother and son are still estranged.
Mr. Mu no longer paid attention to her.
…
In the car.
Mu Shaoling drove the car and glanced sideways at the woman in the passenger seat. After getting in the car, she said nothing and was very quiet.
He was the first to break the silence, "Did you discover anything while eating?"
Nian Mu was stunned. Did he notice her little move?
"It's not an important discovery." She said. Although he asked him so, she was still hesitant to tell him.
"Tell me about it." Mu Shaoling knew that she had discovered that even the subtle changes in Nian Mu's expressions and movements could not be hidden from his eyes.
"I found that there were other tonics added to that soup. This kind of tonic has no effect on young people, but for the elderly, long-term use will increase the burden on the body, and the deficiency will not be replenished." Nian Mu said.
, "I don't know if this medicine is often added to soup, so I have been hesitant to say it."
"What medicine?" Mu Shaoling tightened his grip on the steering wheel.
"Rehmannia glutinosa is a medicine that nourishes and replenishes blood." Nian Mu said.
"Well, thank you." Mu Shaoling listened to her words and said thank you.
Listening to him thanking him, Nian Mu's heart was slightly ups and downs. He picked up his mobile phone and searched for a photo of the Rehmannia Rehmannia on the Internet. He sent it to his WeChat and said: "I sent you the photo of the medicinal materials. You should investigate it first. Is it
It’s not a long-term addition, otherwise, it’s normal.”
Mu Shaoling said "hmm" and said nothing more.
He doesn't know much about medicine, and all the soups are made by the cook. There has been no problem for more than ten years, so he doesn't have as many children as his aunts.
But if the cook keeps adding cooked rehmannia to the soup, it must be for Mr. Mu.
