Dad is here

Chapter 45

Mu Fengying received a call from Mu Yang hiding in the bathroom, so she could only arrange her work and hurried home by taxi.

As soon as she entered the house, she found that the atmosphere was very delicate. Feng Yunxiu accompanied Mu Xiaotao watching cartoons on the sofa, Mu Yang was cooking in the kitchen, and Xu Luofeng was nowhere to be seen.

Mu Fengying slipped into the kitchen to look for her father: "Dad, where's Xu Luofeng?"

"Go shopping." Mu Yang stared at Mu Fengying angrily and said, "What's the matter with you, you stinky girl, if you want to reconcile with him, you have to tell me, I can give it to your mother earlier Get a vaccination, hey, you don't even know that your mother almost broke down just now, and yelled at Xiao Xu in front of Xiao Tao."

Mu Fengying was terrified: "What are you shouting for?"

"Call him out!"

"..."

Mu Fengying washed a large bowl of winter dates and went to the living room, sat down next to Feng Yunxiu, and called out sweetly to her mother, Feng Yunxiu glanced at her without saying a word, Mu Fengying handed her the winter dates: "Mom, you eat winter dates , so sweet."

Seeing her mother still ignoring her, Mu Fengying called her daughter: "Xiao Tao, give grandma the dates."

Mu Xiaotao obediently took two winter dates, handed one to Feng Yunxiu, stuffed the other into her mouth, and said, "Grandma, eat dates."

Feng Yunxiu couldn't refuse Xiaotao, so she took the jujube with a straight face and took a bite. Mu Fengying smiled and said to Mu Xiaotao, "Xiaotao, tell grandma who bought the sweet jujube."

"Uncle Luo Feng and I bought it together!" Mu Xiaotao shook her head, "Grandma, I picked this one, is it sweet?"

Feng Yunxiu glared at Mu Fengying angrily, spit out the jujube in her mouth into the trash can with a "poof", and threw half of the jujube in her hand into it. I'm going to cry.

Mu Fengying hugged Xiaotao into her arms distressedly: "Mom, Xiaotao is going to be scared, don't do this."

"What about me?!" Feng Yunxiu was really angry, "Mu Fengying, you've healed your scar and forgot the pain!"

"mom……"

At this moment, the doorbell rang, Mu Yang opened the door, and it was Xu Luofeng who came back.

His two hands were full of things, and Mu Fengying went over to look at two bottles of Moutai, two pairs of Zhonghua, four big boxes of health care products, one box of cherries, and a gift box of Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs.

She moved her lips, watched him carry things to the living room, put them on the coffee table one by one, nodded slightly to Feng Yunxiu, and called out: "Auntie..."

"I can't afford it." Feng Yunxiu rolled her eyes and didn't even look at him.

She was really furious. If Mu Xiaotao hadn't been there, she would have kicked Xu Luofeng out with a broom.What made her even more angry was that not only Mu Fengying, but even Mu Yang had known Xu Luofeng for a long time, and even conspired with him to persuade her daughter.

Feng Yunxiu is a woman herself, she understands Mu Fengying's hardships in raising children, and thinking of the hardships and tears her precious daughter has suffered and shed in the past few years, she is extremely disappointed in her husband's betrayal, and hates Xu Luofeng even more. .

Faced with such a situation, Mu Fengying understood very well in her heart. In the past few months, why didn't she blame Xu Luofeng?But based on her understanding of him, she knew that Xu Luofeng had indeed expressed a lot of sincerity in the matter of getting back together. Although this sincerity was hardly worth mentioning in the eyes of others, Mu Fengying knew that he had already put his heart into it. Done.

He really likes Xiaotao, and wants to integrate into Xiaotao's life, and give her care and companionship on her growth path, instead of just hanging up the false name of a father and taking on a moral responsibility.

Xu Luofeng didn't use money to solve the problem, such as giving away a house, a car, jewelry, and child support, because he knew that doing so would only bring Mu Fengying's dislike.

She has never been short of these things, and no amount of money can exchange what she lacks.

Many of the things Xu Luofeng did seemed to be funny, but they were actually done with care, completely inconsistent with his style of doing things, broke his living habits, and even subverted his outlook on life formed over the past 20 years.

Mu Fengying saw all this and decided to give him a chance.

So now, in the face of her angry mother, Mu Fengying plans to be an unfilial daughter. She will try her best to make her mother accept Xu Luofeng. She wants Xiaotao to have a real family.

Feng Yunxiu went to the kitchen angrily, while Xu Luofeng stood there without moving.It's really not Young Master Xu's style to keep a low voice, but for the sake of Mu Fengying and Mu Xiaotao, he still endured it.

Mu Fengying rolled her eyes, and asked Mu Xiaotao loudly: "Xiao Tao, in a few days you will be performing Little Snow Flower, have you shown the dress you are wearing to your grandparents?"

"No!" Mu Xiaotao became excited all of a sudden, "Mom, I want to see beautiful dresses too!"

Mu Fengying bent her lips and smiled, and went to the closet to get Mu Xiaotao's performance costume. It was a uniform custom-made costume for the kindergarten. It was a pure white suspender skirt with fluffy white gauze and many shiny little Beads.

Mu Xiaotao really likes this dress, she looks like a little princess when she wears it, but she only tried it once after it was sent out, because her mother said that wearing it in winter is easy to catch a cold.

She could only touch the skirt greedily, but she didn't expect Mu Fengying to say, "Xiao Tao, let's wear it for grandpa and grandma, okay?"

"Okay, okay!" Mu Xiaotao was so excited that she jumped up and down and followed Mu Fengying into the room. After a while, she came out with a changed appearance.

Mu Fengying tied Mu Xiaotao's hair in a small bun and a white fluffy flower. The little girl was wearing a suspender white gauze dress and a pair of black leather shoes on her feet. She had red lips, white teeth, and tender skin. So innocent and cute that people can't take their eyes off.

Xu Luofeng was dumbfounded, Mu Xiaotao jumped in front of him, showing him her beautiful new look, Mu Fengying said, "Xiaotao, show Uncle the Snowflake Dance."

Mu Xiaotao was shy at first, but after a few words of encouragement from Mu Fengying, she jumped up.

Mu Fengying was humming a tune by the side, Mu Xiaotao twirled around on her tiptoes, slowly raised her white and tender arms like lotus roots, and then kicked her legs briskly.

She danced very seriously, with a fake and deliberate smile on her face that the dance teacher told her to, but it was not hypocritical at all on the face of a child, but full of joy and joy.

Mu Fengying stood beside Xu Luofeng, watching Mu Xiaotao dance happily. At some point, Mu Yang and Feng Yunxiu had already left the kitchen, and stood by the living room wall looking at Xiaotao.

Feng Yunxiu's eyes were red, and Mu Yang held her shoulders, comforting her from time to time.

He said: "Xiao Tao and Xiao Xu are really similar..."

"you shut up!"

"..."

After a while, Feng Yunxiu was sad again: "Old Mu, do you still remember that Yingying also wore such skirts and danced such dances when she was a child?"

Mu Yang smiled: "Why don't you remember? At that time, she was in the top class of kindergarten and participated in the Children's Day performance. I even took a picture of her."

Mu Fengying heard their conversation, and when Mu Xiaotao finished dancing, she smiled and said to her parents: "The photo is still there, do you want to see it?"

After changing Mu Xiaotao's clothes, she took out a photo album of her childhood and spread it on the dining table.Most of the photos are 7-inch color photos, and the color is a bit yellowish, but they are still clear.Sitting at the table, Mu Yang and Feng Yunxiu looked at the photos and couldn't stop feeling emotional. They were still very young in the photos, and Mu Fengying was only five or six years old. Sometimes she stood by the flower bed with two braids, and sometimes Cut short hair and stood by the stream holding a water gun, sometimes wearing a floral skirt and being hugged high by Mu Yang.

Xu Luofeng stood quietly behind them, quietly looking at Mu Fengying's family on the photo album. From the photos, it could be seen that Mu Yang and Feng Yunxiu had a very good relationship. They always held hands and even cuddled together to take pictures. Little Mu Fengying stuck to them like a small light bulb.

Although Mu Xiaotao looks like Xu Luofeng, she is Mu Fengying's daughter after all. Looking at the photos when they were young, they still have a little resemblance, especially when they smile.Mu Fengying loved to laugh since she was a child. In this, Mu Xiaotao is like her.When facing the camera, they all smile with crooked brows and eyes, showing their bright white teeth, looking very happy.

Mu Yang found a photo of Mu Fengying when she participated in the kindergarten performance. She was wearing a white gauze skirt and a big white bow on her head. Her pink cheeks were painted with blush, and her small mouth was also bright red. He even made a red heart with lipstick.

That was the special dress for children in that era, Mu Yang pointed to the photo and asked Mu Xiaotao: "Xiao Tao, who is this?"

Mu Xiaotao giggled, "It's mom!"

Feng Yunxiu's eye circles were red again, and tears rolled down her cheeks. Mu Yang put her shoulders together, and suddenly turned to Xu Luofeng and said, "Have you seen these photos?"

Xu Luofeng nodded.

Mu Yang's tone was serious: "You just need to know one thing. Yingying has been our baby since she was a child. If you dare to bully her again, her mother and I will never forgive you. Do you understand?"

Mu Fengying stood beside Xu Luofeng, looking up at him anxiously, Xu Luofeng's hand suddenly reached out and held her hand tightly, he nodded with sincere eyes: "Understood."

"That's good." Mu Yang "slapped" the photo album, Feng Yunxiu wanted to say something more, Mu Yang stared, "What time is it, the dishes are getting cold, eat!"

After New Year's Day, at the beginning of the new year, everything is new, and Mu Fengying is refreshed. One month before the Spring Festival, the company's business has slowed down a bit, so Mu Fengying took some time to get in touch with Bai Jin.

On the phone, Bai Jin's attitude was modest, and he didn't have the airs of a boss at all. His voice was pleasant and magnetic, and Mu Fengying subconsciously imagined him as a handsome gentleman.After seeing him in person in the cafe, Mu Fengying was not disappointed at all, because Bai Jin was indeed a refined and elegant middle-aged man.

He is about 40 years old, wearing a gray suit, with sharp facial features, a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, a gentle smile, and eyes full of wisdom.

Such a person is easy to be liked by others, Mu Fengying sat opposite him, after ordering coffee, she politely handed over her business card, Bai Jin saw the name on her business card, and said with some surprise: "Mu, Feng, Ying. Ah...your company is called Cherry Wedding, does it have something to do with Manager Mu's name?"

"Yes, Mr. Bai, the company name is indeed derived from my name." Mu Fengying smiled.

Bai Jin nodded, and asked again: "Forgive me, I would like to ask, the 'cherry' in the cherry wedding originated from you, what about the 'peach'?"

Mu Fengying replied, "It's because of my daughter, her name is Xiaotao."

Bai Jin looked at Mu Fengying, who looked like she had just graduated from college, and couldn't help but said, "Manager Mu is so young, does he already have a child?"

"Yeah, my daughter is almost four years old."

"It's great to have a daughter. I have a son who is eight years old and so naughty." Bai Jin shook his head and smiled wryly. After pondering for a moment, he said, "Actually, the reason why I came to you is because of your company's name."

Mu Fengying looked at him suspiciously, Bai Jin smiled slightly, and said, "Cherry wedding, happiness to the end. I saw your company name on the Internet, and knew that I must ask you for help."

Mu Fengying became even more curious: "How to say?"

Bai Jin picked up the coffee and took a sip, and said, "Well...Miss Mu, I don't know if you have time, but let me tell you a story first, okay?"

"Please tell me, Mr. Bai."

Bai Jin lowered her eyes and spoke slowly after a while: "There is a heroine in the story, her name is Tao Ying, Tao of ceramics, Sakura of cherry."

At night, after Mu Fengying coaxed Mu Xiaotao to sleep, she took a shower and went back to the master bedroom lightly. Xu Luofeng was sitting in front of the desk and working overtime on a laptop. Mu Fengying climbed onto the bed and patted herself on the face. sheet mask.

She didn't turn on the TV and just sat there in a daze.After a while, Xu Luofeng looked back at her and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"Ok?"

"Haven't you been watching that series, Snail House, it's already started."

"I don't want to watch." Mu Fengying pouted, her voice muffled.

Xu Luofeng got up and came over to see her, and asked again: "What's the matter, you've been in a bad mood since you came back today."

Mu Fengying looked up at him, the mask only exposed her eyes and mouth, she said: "Luo Feng, I met a client during the day today, and he asked us to hold a wedding. The wedding venue is far away, in Xi'an."

"Huh?" Xu Luofeng sat down beside Mu Fengying and asked, "And then?"

"He's so strange. Not only did he not bargain with me, but he also took the initiative to increase the price by [-]% after I told the approximate cost."

"Oh?"

Mu Fengying continued: "Also, there is a business trip, which will take about a week."

Xu Luofeng frowned: "Who is on a business trip?"

"I."

"why are you?"

"I don't know, anyway, he said that I must go." Mu Fengying looked at Xu Luofeng's gloomy face and said, "I'm very hesitant, I don't know whether I should agree to him or not."

"Push him away." Xu Luofeng said coldly, "Chinese New Year is coming soon, don't go on a business trip."

"Hey! It's not a matter of going on a business trip now." Mu Fengying was a little annoyed, she sat up straight suddenly, and said to Xu Luofeng seriously, "This person is really strange, you know, he has a wife There is an 8-year-old son, but he wants me to help him with a wedding in Xi'an. And the groom of the wedding is him."
