Unable to leave
← Ch.0019 | Ch.0021 → |
Zhang Xiao looked at her phone in amusement. Mu Chen was such a prideful guy.
When she saw the cute girl in her arms, she smiled and hugged Mu Ya, giving him a kiss on her face lovingly and said: "Mu Ya, I feel that your dad is very interesting sometimes, but she is also a little arrogant and spoiled. For your sake, I won't bother with him."
Mu Ya was initially unhappy, but after being kissed like this, she immediately shook off her unhappiness. Hugging Zhang Xiao's neck, she imitated Zhang Xiao's actions of kissing her until her heart turned soft, then deliberately kissed Mu Ya's neck, making him giggle. The two of them were not mother and daughter, but they were like a mother and daughter. They were having a great time playing with each other.
Aunt Lan watched this scene from a distance, the corners of her mouth curled up unnaturally.
In this family, it had been more than a year since Ning Tong's death that there had been such happy laughter.
Zhang Xiao's arrival might be able to bring happiness to this family that was concealing its sorrows.
Zhang Xiao even taught Mu Ya to speak.
When a child is in a bad mood, you teach her and she will talk to you when she is in a good mood. When she is in a bad mood, she will ignore you. Zhang Xiao had only just taught her to speak when she was willing to follow her.
Mu Ya would call her mother, so she taught Mu Ya to call her father.
That Mr. Chameleon loves her daughter very much. If he heard her daughter call him daddy, he would probably jump in joy. He just doesn't know if she has any bonus for teaching his precious daughter to call him daddy.
At four in the afternoon, Zhang Xiao decided to get off work.
When she handed Mu Ya over to the Aunt Lan, the little guy seemed to have guessed that she would leave and immediately frowned, her little face turning red. Her eyes reddened, and finally, she started crying. She wanted Zhang Xiao to hug her.
No matter how the Aunt Lan coaxed him, Mu Ya refused to let Zhang Xiao go.
Mu Ya's wail floated to the next room and quickly attracted the couple's attention.
"What's going on, why is Mu Ya crying again?" Zhao Zi Ru walked over with a pained heart. She frowned as she extended her hands and hugged Mu Ya from Aunt Lan's arms. When Mu Ya was carried by his grandmother, she was still crying towards Zhang Xiao, wanting him to hug her.
Zhao Zi Ru immediately glared at Zhang Xiao in displeasure.
Aunt Lan immediately explained: "Madam, Miss Zhang and Third Young Master have an agreement, we are going to get off work at 4 PM every day, and give Young Miss to us to bring. If Young Miss really wants to follow Miss Zhang, we can bring him to do some work with him, but Miss Zhang needs to go to the hospital to accompany her friends. Those kinds of places have too many germs, how can we bring Young Miss?"
Aunt Lan's explanation made Zhao Zi Ru a little more displeased. She looked at Zhang Xiao and said: "Zhang Xiao, can you go to the hospital later? Look at Mu Ya crying like this." With that, she took the tissue that Mu Zhen Bang gave her and wiped her granddaughter's tears.
Mu Zhen Bang was not a servant of the Mu Family. Mu Chen had just called back and told his parents that Zhang Xiao was a special nanny and reminded her family not to treat Zhang Xiao like a servant.
He felt that Zhang Xiao's appearance was very sweet, yet carried the scent of sunlight. She seemed to be the same type of person as Ning Tong, yet also didn't have much in common. After sizing up Mu Ya, he said to him gently: "Miss Zhang, Mu Chen has arranged for some people to go to the hospital to take care of your friends. Since that's the case, can you stay a little longer?
Zhang Xiao was in a bit of a difficult situation. She had told her before, that she would head home from work to make some soup after four o'clock and make some light food. After that, she would bring it to the hospital and accompany Ye Qing for the night.
Her spicy stall was made in partnership with Ye Qing, who was injured, so it would be hard for her to set up her own stall. Ye Qing was injured and hospitalized. As Ye Qing's only good friend, she also had the duty to take care of Ye Qing.
"Is there any difficulty with the Miss Zhang?"
Seeing Zhang Xiao's troubled face, Mu Zhen Bang asked in concern.
Zhang Xiao looked at the little cow who was crying non-stop, and finally hugged the little cow back into his arms again. Once the little fellow returned to her embrace, it held her neck tightly with its hands, and wiped tears and snot all over Zhang Xiao's body.
"Master Mu, I promised Ye Qing that I would cook her dinner, then take it to the hospital for her to eat, so..." She paused, knowing that the Mu Family couple would understand what she meant.
Hearing that Zhang Xiao was just anxious to get off work to cook for her friends, Zhao Zi Ru said: "Miss Zhang, this is an easy task. You can cook whatever you want for your friends and stay at our house to cook."Once it's done, I'll send someone to help you deliver it to your friend."
Mu Zhen Bang also nodded in agreement.
Zhang Xiao wanted to think about it, but the little girl in his arms was still sobbing while hugging her neck tightly. She could only coax the little cow candy in her arms and take the tissue offered by Aunt Lan to help Mu Ya wipe her nose clean. Mu Ya looked at her with her red eyes, making her unable to harden her heart even if she wanted to reject Zhao Zi Ru's suggestion.
Aunt Lan laughed: "Miss Zhang, Third Young Master has said that you are free to do whatever you want in this house. You can do whatever you want as if you are in your own house." As long as Zhang Xiao did not leave while Mu Ya was still awake, there was no problem for her to do anything.
Zhang Xiao smiled and did not reply.
Mu Chen had said so before, but he still gave her a forbidden ground. Her range of activities was not limited to the entire Mu Family Mansion, but to this villa.
She seemed free, but she was not.
Because he had given her restrictions.
Under Zhang Xiao's gentle coaxing, Mu Ya slowly stopped crying.
"Mom." Mu Yi who was next door was really worried about her niece as she called out to her mother through the wall.
Hearing his eldest son's call, Mu Zhen Bang and his wife immediately abandoned their granddaughter and quickly turned to leave. Zhang Xiao originally wanted to say something, but seeing that the couple hurriedly left after hearing the call from next door, she was a little stunned as he watched the couple crawl through the arched door and disappear in front of her eyes.
She was very curious what kind of person the Mu Family's Eldest Young Master! next door was, why didn't Mu Chen allow her to go next door? Also, Zhao Zi Ru and her wife obviously cared more about the Eldest Young Master next door.
"Aunt Lan, your Eldest Young Master..."
Aunt Lan's expression turned serious as she reminded Zhang Xiao in a serious yet kind manner, "Miss Zhang, let's not talk about the Eldest Young Master. If Madam hears about it, we will even lose our job."
Mu Yi always felt that others being concerned about him was because they sympathized with him. As his parents, when they heard others talking about her son, they also felt that others were gloating about his misfortune, so they forbidden everyone from mentioning Mu Yi in private.
Aunt Lan's reminder made Zhang Xiao remember her warning, so she tactfully stopped asking.
