C63 What a Pity
Both of them were about the same age as Mu Shucheng. Neither of them disappointed the old lady. They were loyal to Mu Shucheng.
Shi Lan looked at Du Bin and smiled. "Little Bin, you still have such a serious expression when you see someone. Be careful that you won't find a wife in the future!"
When Du Bin heard that, his face turned slightly red. He scratched his head awkwardly and the corner of his mouth slightly curved.
His smile was uglier than crying!
The old lady looked at him and laughed again.
"You're such a big man, and you still know how to blush!"
When Luo Xue and Mu Shucheng heard this, they looked at Du Bin in unison. Even Mrs Chang could not help but laugh.
Being stared at by everyone, Du Bin's face became redder and redder. He scratched his head awkwardly again and only said one sentence after a long time.
"You... Don't look at me..."
The group of people laughed wildly.
Luo Xue saw that even the old lady was so enthusiastic about Du Bin. The nervousness in her heart could not help but relax a little. She also had a better impression of this old man who was smiling at everyone.
Mrs Chang brought Du Bin to place the gifts. Luo Xue and Mu Shucheng accompanied Shi Lan to the small attic.
The attic was very small. The first floor was a large room with all kinds of flowers and plants. The second floor had a total of three rooms, a bedroom, a living room, and a study room.
The bedroom was a suite. Usually, Shi Lan lived in the inner room while Mrs Chang lived in the outer room. In the past, Mrs Chang did not live here because Shi Lan was old. No one was worried at night. Moreover, when one was old and could not sleep at night, they always wanted to find someone to talk to. Mrs Chang naturally moved in.
Only Shi Lan's closest person could enter this small attic. Under normal circumstances, when people came to see her, they would meet her in the big living room in the front yard.
Once inside, Mu Shucheng took off his coat and poured a cup of water for Shi Lan. Shi Lan was so satisfied that she could not close her mouth. She gestured Luo Xue to sit down and teased.
"You only know how to pour water for grandma, but you also don't know how to pour a cup for your wife?"
As if she had already gotten used to the character of an old lady, Luo Xue smiled awkwardly. It was just that the word "wife" sounded a little awkward in her ears.
"How could she be so lucky? She always poured water for me at home."
Mu Shucheng's tone was calm, but he kept showing off the harmonious life of his husband and wife.
When Shi Lan heard this, the smile on her face became even wider.
Knowing that Mu Shucheng was coaxing the old lady to be happy, Luo Xue smiled and did not say anything.
"All the women in North City combined are not as important as you in my heart! Because they are not as beautiful as you..."
Mu Shucheng said and looked at Luo Xue from time to time. She sat upright on the sofa with a smile on her face.
"Hehe... This kid! He's not afraid that your wife will be jealous!"
This time, Shi Lan laughed out loud.
Luo Xue's mood was inexplicably good when she saw this pair of grandfather and grandson joking around. It was rare that Mu Shucheng could say one or two jokes.
"Not jealous. In the future, if he bullies me, he still wants grandma to uphold justice for me."
Luo Xue finally opened her mouth. Seeing that she did not put on airs, the old lady became more and more fond of her.
"Young grandma, have some tea."
No one knew when Mrs Chang had returned. She brought a cup of tea and placed it in front of Luo Xue.
As Shi Lan spoke, she put down the cup of tea and peeled the apple for Luo Xue.
"Grandma is not used to drinking coffee or anything like that. She always drinks tea... I don't know if you can drink it or not."
After Luo Xue said thanks to Mrs Chang, she smiled and said to Shi Lan, "I also drank tea before."
After Luo Xue finished speaking, she regretted it. Before this, she did not use it properly and would probably be questioned...
Sure enough, the old lady asked in surprise.
"Why was it before?"
Luo Xue's body unconsciously trembled and for a moment, she could not find a reasonable explanation.
She could not say that she quit drinking tea because of Qian Zixiao, right?
Previously, she had stopped drinking tea. Previously... Luo Xue only loved drinking plain water. After knowing Qian Zixiao, she slowly gained an understanding of tea. It was not exaggerated to say that Luo Xue's understanding of tea was taught by Qian Zixiao.
Luo Xue once thought that Qian Zixiao was the person who understood tea the most in this world. His obsession with tea was as high as her obsession with him.
Every time she drank tea, she would unconsciously think of Qian Zixiao, so later on, she stopped drinking tea, quit what he loved the most, and quit him!
Mu Shucheng sat next to Luo Xue. Her body trembled and the strange expression on her face could be clearly felt. She frowned slightly and said slowly.
"She has an addiction to tea. I helped her quit."
Mu Shucheng had found a way for Luo Xue to step down. Luo Xue came back to her senses and nodded awkwardly.
"Oh, she has an addiction to tea. This tea can relieve fatigue and nourish the heart and lungs. But if she drinks too much, it is indeed not good for her body. It is good to be more careful."
The atmosphere in the room inexplicably became cold. A trace of guilt flashed in the corner of Luo Xue's eyes. She adjusted her mood and picked up the teacup to look at the tea leaves floating in the cup and said softly.
"Grandma likes the Peaceful Monkey King?"
When the old lady heard that, she immediately perked up.
"You understand?"
Luo Xue smiled.
"Just a little. Look at this soup. It's tender, green, and bright. The fragrance is fresh, fresh, and high. It has a lasting orchid fragrance. It must be the Taiping Monkey King."
Luo Xue lightly took a sip as she spoke.
"The taste is refreshing, mellow, and rich. The aftertaste is sweet and unique. This tea is even the best!"
The old lady nodded her head in satisfaction, as if she had found a good friend.
"Continue."
It was a coincidence that Qian Zixiao had once liked the Taiping Monkey King. Luo Xue remembered it clearly and knew it very well. However, many times, talking too much would make it seem like she was showing off.
"I am not very educated. I only know this much. Grandma, if you are interested, please spread the knowledge."
Mrs Chang, who had been standing at the side, looked at Luo Xue with admiration. She really knew how to make the old lady happy.
Seeing Shi Lan's energetic look, Mu Shucheng raised the corner of his eye. The woman beside him was very smart.
Shi Lan handed the peeled apple to Luo Xue with a face full of excitement.
"The Taiping Monkey King belongs to the green tea category and is produced in the area of Anhui and Taiping County. It is the best of the best and has been famous for a long time. It had two sprouts, and it was flat and straight. Its white hair was hidden, and it had a beautiful name, "The two ends of a monkey's head, neither sticking out nor curling up." The chemical constituents in the tea leaves are over 500. It has antimicrobial effects, antimicrobial effects, weight loss effects, anti-carotid teeth, and the like to suppress cancer cells... "
The old lady spoke with confidence and assurance. One look and one could tell that she was a knowledgeable person. Luo Xue had been quietly listening and praising from time to time.
They talked about Taiping Monkey Kui, Xihu Longjing, Taihu Biluochun, famous mountain top, Lushan Cloudmist, Junshan Silver Needles...
The two of them chatted happily.
Mu Shucheng was bored and took his phone to look at it, but when he saw Luo Xue beside him, he was surprised. This little girl in front of him was getting more and more likeable. He was thinking... If she was that little girl from back then, he would definitely fall in love with her.
What a pity...
Mu Shucheng frowned and lowered his head to continue looking at his phone.
