Chapter 197 You Should Remember
Chapter 197 You Should Remember
You don’t have to cook the food yourself, it’s a pleasure to eat.
Wan Chuncao ate the food Xu Muyu picked for her and asked Aunt Liu, "By the way, Auntie, you haven't seen stepmother for such a long time. Now that you're back, don't you want to go visit her?"
She said, "There's not much at home, but there are some fruits. You can take them later."
Xu Muyu picked up more dishes for Wan Chuncao a few times, and Liu Ma and the others got used to it.
Although it still looks a bit strange, it is understandable when I think that it is a gift from Xu Muyu.
Wan Chuncao was so considerate that she even thought of bringing some things to see Yu Xiu. Aunt Liu said, "It's okay, Chuncao. I called Miss Yu when we came, and she's not here."
"Not here?"
Wan Chuncao asked Liu Ma with a gossipy look on her face: "Why is she taking advantage of the holiday to relax?"
Aunt Liu didn't remember for a moment, so she said, "No, the second young master is abroad, and she flew over to see him."
After saying that, he remembered that Xu Muyu was still here, and quickly shut his mouth.
Even Zeng Xiaoyang bumped into Liu Ma's arm in a complaining manner.
Xu Muyu heard it, but ignored it and ate the food in the bowl in small bites.
Only Wan Chuncao swallowed a big mouthful of meat and laughed and asked Liu Ma: "Second Young Master? Why is your stepmother also working as a nanny?"
"What is she? She is so thick-skinned and can't talk. Last time I wanted to give her a book on how to talk, but I don't know if she has learned it. If she hasn't learned to talk, how can she be someone's nanny? If someone scolds her, she will hang herself. How can she live like this?"
"It's not what you said..."
Aunt Liu observed Xu Muyu's expression again, wondering whether to say it.
Xu Muyu continued to eat with a blank expression: "It's her son."
"son?"
Wan Chuncao laughed again: "I saw that her butt was as small as her head, so I thought she had never given birth."
Are you praising someone or scolding someone?
Aunt Liu couldn't tell the difference either, but since Xu Muyu had spoken, she could also speak.
"Ms. Yu gave birth to a son, a few years younger than Xiao Yu, who has been studying abroad."
Liu Ma told Wan Chuncao: "He will graduate soon, so Miss Yu will fly over to see him."
After saying that, he looked at Xu Muyu's expression again, and Zeng Xiaoyang was also looking at Xu Muyu.
Xu Muyu was still the same, indifferent and expressionless.
Wan Chuncao asked: "Then why do we call him Second Young Master? Doesn't he have a name? How come he still hasn't been given a name at this age?"
"No, he was just joking. Everyone called him that just as a joke."
It turned out that Xu Muyu had never told Wan Chuncao the true situation at home.
Aunt Liu glanced at Xu Muyu and said, "His name is Xu Yicheng, and Miss Yu and Mr. Xu call him Xiaoyi. He is not particular about details and always likes to joke with us, so we usually call him the Second Young Master."
"So is he one or two?"
Guan Chuncao put down his chopsticks, put his feet on the dining chair without any image, and asked Liu Ma: "Why is he so idle? All the dogs in our village put together don't have as many names as he does."
Liu Ma said: "They are all nicknames, how can they be the same?"
Guan Chuncao thought about it and said, "It's different. The dogs in our village don't bark. But the pigs like to bark like this when they are sent out to the market."
"Your pig is number one, and mine is number two. We'll put a stamp on each pig's butt and tell them which one to sell. Once they're sold, they're not allowed to come home."
The more she talked, the more outrageous it became. Aunt Liu explained, "The Second Young Master has nothing to do with these little people. He is kind, well-educated, and good-looking. He smiles every day and is easy to talk to. You will know when you meet him. He is very approachable and treats us very well."
"He's very handsome? How handsome? Is he as handsome as our village chief?"
Wan Chuncao asked Liu Ma: "As handsome as a movie star? Or more handsome than a movie star?"
Her series of questions made Liu Ma recall what the man looked like.
When I think of it, I can't help but praise him: "He is much more handsome than movie stars, and even more handsome than those young people call him pretty boys. He is handsome and sunny, not to mention how popular he is with girls."
"How long did the three of them stay there before they came back?"
Wan Chuncao did not ask any further questions about the man's appearance, but suddenly asked this question.
The question was asked quickly, so Aunt Liu didn't think much about it: "Come back at the end of the month."
"Oh... the end of the month..."
Wan Chuncao found a toothpick from somewhere and picked it up: "What are they going to do? Why can they stay so long?"
"After attending the graduation ceremony, they will go on a trip and then return home."
Aunt Liu thought about it and said that Miss Yu and her family of three were together?
Guan Chuncao pondered the time and said, "It's OK. It's not too long. I'll go home after my trip, so it's about time for us to meet."
Liu Ma asked her, "Do you want to meet them?"
"It's mainly to meet my stepfather. I've been married to my man for so long, I have to meet him anyway."
Wan Chuncao folded her arms and calculated the time: "I have to see what he looks like before I marry him. Don't just say that I can be picky when marrying a man. I have to see the appearance of the old man and old woman in my husband's family too."
"If I'm too ugly, I'd be embarrassed to tell anyone."
How come he became a stepfather?
Aunt Liu was anxious: "You are wrong! You should call Mr. Xu 'Dad'. Besides, how can Mr. Xu's appearance affect you?"
"Ah? If he wasn't my stepfather, why didn't he take us with him on his trip?"
Wan Chuncao laughed exaggeratedly: "Look at your aunt, stop making trouble. If it was your biological father, how could he go on a trip without telling us at all? We can't still be a family. Only a stepfather would do this."
"My stepfather's appearance has to be good enough for us. His face is longer than a donkey, his mouth is bigger than a horse, and his belly is rounder than a pig. Where will our family's reputation be? Everyone knows that I have a shameless stepfather, so the reputation of a girl like me will be ruined."
"Mr. Xu is Xiao Yu's biological father."
Liu Ma deliberately emphasized: "He looks the same as Xiao Yu, not ugly. How can a biological father and son who are made from the same mold be ugly?"
"Go, go, go."
Wan Chuncao held a toothpick in his mouth, chuckled twice, and then spread his hands and said, "Whatever you say is what it is."
Isn't this still unbelievable?
Aunt Liu had to explain again: "Mr. Xu is not that kind of person."
"Yes, yes, it's all up to you."
Guan Chuncao held a toothpick in her mouth and saw that Xu Muyu had only taken two bites of the meat, so she picked up the chopsticks and picked up the fish meat that he liked for him.
Liu Ma didn't plan to cook fish. She wanted to pour water into the pot and steam it.
The fish was served and the plate was placed on Zeng Xiaoyang's side. No one took it back. She squatted on the dining chair and picked up most of the fish and put it into Xu Muyu's bowl.
Seeing him eat, she continued to hold the toothpick in her mouth and said to Aunt Liu: "Aunt, you finally came back, you won't leave this time, right? The house is so quiet when you are not here. Now that you are here, you have to stay longer and don't leave in a hurry. Xiaoyang, don't go back, just stay with us until the New Year."
Xu Muyu ate the fish meat that Guan Chuncao picked up for him in small bites. After he finished eating, he took the leftovers from Guan Chuncao and continued eating naturally without saying a word during the whole process.
Aunt Liu didn't see it, she only heard what Wan Chuncao said. She said, "How can I stay until the New Year? Xiaoyang will go back at the end of the month. I will come back after I send Xiaoyang back."
"Ah...so that's it."
Guan Chuncao used chopsticks to pick out the tiny spike from the fish in Xu Muyu's bowl and said, "Why don't you stay a little longer? Why are you in such a hurry to go back?"
Xu Muyu picked up the piece of fish and ate it, not seeming to worry at all whether there were bones in the meat.
Even if there is, he doesn't need to worry about it, someone will pick it up.
Aunt Liu said with a smile: "Xiaoyang still has to go to school, so he can't stay that long."
"Then you will stay for a long time."
Wan Chuncao held a toothpick in her mouth and said, "Why don't they take you abroad with them?"
Liu Ma didn't understand what she was saying: "What?"
"You two were so close, and your stepmother cared about you so much, but you were not taken abroad and stayed here with us."
Wan Chuncao held a toothpick in her mouth, and her smile suddenly faded: "Then you should remember who you spent the most time with."
