"Uncle." Nannan put down her chopsticks and sat upright on the small stool before politely asking, "Can I ask you a question?"

Mu Xiangdong quickly took out the pancake in front of him and smiled, "Nannan, what do you want to ask?" He had no experience with children, and many children would be afraid of him if they saw him. But these two children were very close to him, and he really liked these two children.

The baby held the drawing board in one hand and a pen in the other. He listened to the conversation between his sister and Mu Dongfang with his pointy ears.

"Uncle, do you have a brother or brother?" The little girl opened her eyes wide and looked at Mu Dongfang with a serious expression.

Mu Dong did not understand why the child would ask such a question, but he did not probe further. He smiled and replied, "I have a brother."

"Does he have a brother?"

"No brother, and a sister at home."

Nannan rolled her eyes before asking: "Then how old is your brother this year?"

"Thirty-one." Mu Dongfang answered honestly.

"31?" The little girl repeated herself and kept silent for a while before she whispered, "Then how much is the difference between 31 and 24?"

Mu Dongdong's ears were very sharp as he heard Nannan's words. He thought to himself that this little child's thoughts were really jumping and he was starting to solve the math problem now.

Looking at the little girl's serious expression, Mu Dong smiled as he helped her solve this problem. He cleared his throat and whispered, "There is a difference of 7 points."

Nannan counted with her fingers, counting from one to seven. That little finger was plump and very cute.

The baby had heard everything from the beginning until the end, but he did not know what his sister wanted to do as he looked at her suspiciously before shifting his gaze to Mu Dongfang.

Alright, he was really curious as to what his sister wanted to do!

"Little girl, can you tell uncle what you want to do by asking these questions?" There was no helping it, this child was simply too adorable, causing Mu Dongdong to not be able to hold himself back as he extended his hand to caress Nannan's hair.

Actually, our Nannan does not like people stroking her hair, but if the other is an uncle then that is acceptable.

Nannan first looked in Xia Mu's direction and discovered that her mother was focused on the pot so she did not look at them. She then turned her head and said in a small voice: "Uncle, after I tell you this, can you keep it a secret?"

"Uncle, can you keep this a secret?" the baby repeated.

Mu Dongfang had not yet replied when Nannan's voice rang out, "Baby, don't learn from me!"

The baby quickly waved his hands and answered innocently, "Big sister, I didn't! I'm asking uncle? Isn't that right, Uncle? " After saying that, the baby opened his eyes wide and stared unblinkingly at Mu Dong. It was as if he had to hear the answer from Mu Dong before he would be willing to give up.

Alright, these two children had completely melted Mu Dong's heart. He had never thought that there would be a day where he would be able to get along so harmoniously with two children he hadn't seen before.

"Secret?" Mu Dongfang let out a long sentence as he saw Nannan and the baby straighten their bodies after hearing his words. Their faces were tense as they stared at him, waiting for his answer.

"Of course you can!"

Mu Dongfang clearly saw the two children exchange a glance before he heaved a sigh of relief.

"Uncle, how about we pull the hook first?" A chubby hand reached over.

Looking at the two small fingers in front of him, Mu Dongfang stretched them out and hooked his fingers around the two children's hands. "Okay, can you tell me now?"

Nannan and the baby looked at each other, the baby pursed his lips and said: "Uncle, does your brother have a girlfriend?"

Mu Dong did not expect this question from him. It was unclear if Mu Zexi had a girlfriend, but he wanted to know if Mu Zexi had a girlfriend had anything to do with these two children.

Seeing that Mu Dongdong did not reply, Nannan continued to say, "Uncle, the situation is like this. I need to find a dad for myself and my baby. Originally, we all liked you. I felt that you were good-looking, tall, and also very good to us. You were the most suitable candidate. But, you already have a girlfriend? Sigh, how troublesome! " Mu Dongfang didn't know whether to laugh or cry when Mu Ru Yue said that.

Were these two children going to introduce him to her?

Oh my god! Are all children so mature now?

"Nannan, who told your uncle that he has a girlfriend?"

"Wasn't that beautiful aunt who was with you in the hospital your girlfriend?" Nannan opened her eyes wide as she seriously replied.

Mu Dongdong knew that Nannan was talking about Wei Meng, but he did not need to explain the relationship between him and the children. However, looking at the pure gazes of the children he seriously explained: "That aunt is not uncle's girlfriend."

"Really?" Nannan asked.

"Really."

"Do you want to be our father, Uncle?" The baby suddenly interrupted, and after he finished his sentence, he was still a little uneasy. His eyes were staring at Mu Dongfang, waiting for his answer.

The baby knew that she was different from other children. Their family had a mother and a father, but he only had his mother and sister. The one called father had never appeared.

In fact, the baby felt like he could live without his dad's words, and he could still grow strong. But in kindergarten, he could always hear Xiao Fei boasting about his dad taking him to an amusement park, his dad buying him new toys, and so on.

Hearing too much, the baby will also be unable to resist thinking, his father, where is it?

His sister had said that if his father hadn't appeared, then he would have gone to find his father. The last time he went out to find his father, he had not been able to find him, and he had even fainted in the square. If this Uncle Mu had not saved him, he would not have been able to see his mother and sister again.

If his father was Uncle Mu, wouldn't that be great?

Uncle Mu was so tall. He must have had the strength to hug his sister, smile at her, and talk to her at the same time.

This kind of feeling, just thinking about it made the baby so excited that he wanted to cry.

In the face of the baby's question, he found it hard to answer. He cleared his throat and was about to speak when he heard Xia Mu's voice. "What are you talking about?"

Xia Mu walked up to the small table, saw three people with different expressions, and asked: "What's wrong?"

"It's okay, Mom. We're talking to uncle." Nannan raised her head and looked at Xia Mu as she sweetly said.

"Really?" Xia Mu didn't believe what his daughter said because Mu Dong had a very strange expression on his face.

"Really? If you don't believe me, ask uncle?" The little girl tossed the problem at Mu Dong. Then, she stood up from the stool and ran to the baby's side. She held onto the baby's hand and said, "Baby, let's go over there."

The baby was dragged away by Nannan and even though he was unwilling he was a good brother so he would definitely listen to his sister's words.

However, he really wanted to stay with his uncle for a while longer.

The baby looked at Mu Dong with reluctance and thought in his heart.

"Big sister, why are we here? Why can't we stay with uncle?" Under a big tree, the baby looked at his sister with grief and asked.

"Let mom and uncle talk. The adults have things to talk about. It won't be convenient for the children to be there!"

"Why is it inconvenient?" the baby asked.

"Aiya, if it's inconvenient, it's inconvenient! How can there be so many reasons! " Nannan opened her drawing board and took out a brush to draw while speaking.

At the small table, Xia Mu and Xia Mu sat facing each other without hearing the children's voices.

"I'm sorry, the children are very annoying. I've troubled you." The moment Xia Mu sat down, he opened his mouth to apologize.

"The children are very obedient. I can see that you have taught them very well." A little over three years old, she was very polite and knew how to pity her mother. Such a good child must be the result of her careful teaching.

Mu Dongfang's undisguised praise made Xia Mu blush, and she said softly, "I have to go out for the weekend, so the children have nowhere to go. They can only follow me. "Speaking of which, as a mother, I'm not that good."

Mu Dongfang recalled the words that the babies said. From what the children said, it seemed like they had never seen their father before. They wondered just what kind of past this young girl had. However, if she had the courage to bear the responsibility of raising two children at her age, then she must be the father who deeply loved the child.

Suddenly, Mu Dongfang felt a bit of jealousy toward the father of the child he had never met. What kind of person would be willing to part with his wife and children?

"You did well."

The bashful expression on his face became even more obvious. Looking at the girl who was as gentle as water, Mu Dongdong felt a crack in the ice in his heart. A ray of sunlight shone through, causing him to feel warm.

"Uncle, remember to come back next weekend!" Nannan held the baby in her hand as she worriedly told the others.

"Uncle, remember me next weekend!" The baby also followed up, only that it was his first time inviting someone else so he was not used to it and said it was not as smooth as Nannan.

Xia Mu, who was standing next to the two children, heard their words. A hint of nervousness flashed through his eyes, but he was also eager to hear Mu Dongfang's answer.

"Alright, I'll be sure to come next weekend." Mu Dongfang looked at the two tiny things in front of him and answered without hesitation.

On the way home, the smile on Mu Dongfang's face never faded. When he thought back to what the children had said, a part of his heart softened. When he thought about their date next week, a smile appeared in his eyes.

I'm looking forward to next weekend!

Until the shadow disappeared around the corner, Nannan and Baby stood there watching.

"Children, we're going home!" Xia Mu shouted.

"Oh, then I'll help." Nannan first replied.

"I'll help Mom too!" The baby followed.

Two figures ran over, each taking up a small stool and placing it beside the cart to help Xia Mu clean up the stalls. This was something children were used to doing, and today, after seeing their uncle, the children were in high spirits, so they didn't feel tired at all when working.
