Chapter 809: Return
That night, Li Ning barely slept long.
Obviously, when Shen Muzhi was in France, she could still sleep peacefully, but she knew that he was coming back, and she became more and more sleepless.
In the morning, Li Ning looked at himself in the mirror when he was washing, his eyes were slightly red, and he still had two faint dark circles under his eyes, and his face was haggard.
Li Ning laughed at herself, saying in her heart that this seemed to be deliberately making herself pitiful, just waiting for Shen Muzhi to see.
After she became pregnant, Li Ning often faced the sky plainly, but on the same day, she used special cosmetics for pregnant women to draw a light but delicate makeup, and her clothes were also carefully selected and matched.
Li Ning didn't know why he did this, but he thought that he should do this, so he did it.
When going downstairs, Li Ning subconsciously glanced at the direction of the door, as if expecting Shen Muzhi to open the door and enter at this moment.
Li Ning looked at the time, thinking that this time should almost be up.
"Grandma early." Uncle Zheng greeted with a smile.
"Uncle Zheng early."
Li Ning came to the restaurant and saw three sets of utensils on the table, but there was no one in sight.
"Did Mu Xing not come back, or did he not get up?" Li Ning asked casually.
Uncle Zheng smiled, "The second young master went out before dawn, saying that he would personally pick up the eldest young master at the airport." ”
"He's got a heart."
"Since the eldest young master and the eldest young grandmother got married, in my memory, this is the first time that the eldest young master has been away alone for so long." Uncle Zheng said with a little emotion.
Li Ning's eyebrows moved slightly when he listened, and he thought back for a moment that this was really the case.
The last time Shen Muzhi went on a business trip, he originally went to France alone, but Li Ning then went to France overnight on the pretext of going to France to attend a medical academic seminar, and it was also that time that he met Sophia, a good friend.
"That's what Uncle Zheng said." Thinking of the past, Li Ning also smiled with emotion.
"Presumably, the eldest young master went abroad this time, and he is also the most anxious to come back, after all, there is not only the eldest young grandmother at home, but also the young master who is worried."
Li Ning stroked her belly, remembering the day Shen Muzhi just left, her heart was empty, and even the baby was kicking back and forth in her belly.
At that time, I only felt that Shen Muzhi had been gone for a long time, but now that I look at it, it seems that he has come back in a blink of an eye.
"By the way, Uncle Zheng, thank you for the soup you sent yesterday, I drank it all." Li Ning suddenly remembered this and did not forget to thank him.
"The eldest young grandmother is polite, it is my duty to take care of you and the young master."
"What Uncle Zheng has done for us is far beyond the scope of his duties, you are more like the head of this family, taking care of our three children who can't take care of themselves, and soon, there will be another real child. This home bothers you. ”
Uncle Zheng didn't expect Li Ning to suddenly say these words, and he felt a burst of warmth in his heart.
Uncle Zheng has taken care of Shen Muzhi's brothers for many years, although he is a housekeeper, but the two Shen Muzhi brothers treat him like family elders, he knows all this, and he is very grateful and relieved for this.
But many things are known to the heart, and when these feelings are translated into words and really spoken to him, it is another kind of emotion.
"Grandma is too polite." Uncle Zheng was moved, but suddenly became not good at words.
Li Ning's words also stopped immediately, and immediately looked at the time and changed the topic, "I don't know if Mu Xing has received Mu Zhi." ”
"Why don't I give a phone call and ask?" Uncle Zheng answered.
Li Ning shook his head, "Mu Zhi just came back, he hasn't been in the country for the past few days, he should have accumulated a lot of things, if he gets off the plane and is free, he will call me." Mu Xing didn't know if he was driving at this time, and it was better not to call. ”
"Grandma is thoughtful."
While the two were talking, the maid approached and said, "The second young master's car is back." ”
Li Ning almost immediately stood up and walked out of the restaurant towards the door.
Uncle Zheng was worried about the cold in the morning, so he hurriedly took a thin shawl and put it on Li Ning's shoulder, and the two went out together.
Shen Muxing's car was indeed parked in the courtyard, and when Li Ning was looking at whether there was Shen Muzhi in the car, he saw that the doors on both sides were pushed open at the same time, and Shen Muzhi and Shen Muxing got out of the car from both sides.
Li Ning's eyes were suddenly filled with happy smiles, and he subconsciously took a few steps forward.
"You're back." Li Ning stretched out his hand to Shen Muzhi.
Shen Muzhi, who had no expression when he got out of the car, seemed to be infected by Li Ning's smile, strode forward with a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth, took Li Ning's hand and looked up and down.
"Thin."
Li Ning touched his cheek, "How can you be thin, you have clearly gained two pounds." ”
"The eldest young master, this is distressing the eldest young grandmother." Uncle Zheng said with a smile on the side.
Li Ning glanced at Shen Muzhi with a smile, "You just want me to raise your son to be fat for nothing." ”
Shen Muzhi gently grabbed Li Ning's waist and kissed her sideburns, "He is secondary, as long as you are good." ”
"It sounds like water. Should it be the other way around, right? Li Ning deliberately raised his eyebrows and joked.
"There's no water at all, sincerely."
Shen Muzhi said, and another light kiss landed on Li Ning's forehead, completely indifferent to the other people around him.
"Oh, it's really a little better than a newlywed, the eldest brother has only been gone for a few days, and as soon as he comes back, he can get tired of honey with his sister-in-law, but he ignores my brother who went to pick up the airport before dawn, alas~"
Li Ning smiled when he heard this, took Shen Muzhi's hand and walked towards the house, "What's wrong with you?" provoked his stomach resentment. ”
"Don't be verbose here, let your business be dealt with as soon as possible."
Shen Muzhi said this, but there was a bit of helplessness in his tone, and his brother was helpless to his naughty brother. ”
"Yes, yes." Shen Muxing nodded in a pretentious gesture.
"Okay, don't be poor, it's hard to go out early in the morning, let's go to breakfast together and talk about the rest."
Li Ning turned around and greeted Shen Muxing.
"My sister-in-law still knows that she feels sorry for me, at least she still remembers that I didn't eat breakfast."
Shen Muxing pursed the corners of his lips, looking like a complaining little daughter-in-law.
While he was talking, Li Ning heard the sound of the door opening behind him, and when he turned around, he saw that it was Assistant Li.
"Assistant Li is also here, why didn't I see it." Li Ning stopped and asked.
"Mrs. Shen early. I took the driver's car, and followed by Ershao's car. Assistant Li said hello and said politely.
Li Ning saw that he was holding a few folders in his hand and carrying a small suitcase, thinking that he would follow him to his home because of work.
"I shouldn't have eaten breakfast early in the morning, so come and eat together." Li Ning beckoned to Assistant Li and greeted him kindly.
"Mrs. Shen is polite, I won't need it, I'll ...... later"
"If you want to come over, come together." Before Assistant Li finished speaking, Shen Muzhi interrupted him.
