you are my greatest success

After settling down a group of excited children, Zhu Tianyi took Mu Xi to meet the principal first.

"Hello, welcome to our place as a guest." The dean is about sixty years old, but he looks very friendly and always smiles.

"Hi Dean, I'm Mu Xi, I'm sorry for bothering you this time." Mu Xi smiled and handed over the scarf he bought at the mall. He planned to give it to Zhu Tianyi's mother at first, but fortunately it was still useful.

"You are so polite, I am very happy that you are willing to come." The dean was about to push the gift back to Mu Xi, but Mu Xi shook his head to stop him.

"It's the first time to meet an elder, it's always not good to come empty-handed." Mu Xi said with a smile, looking at the principal sincerely with his eyes, it's impossible for someone who likes children to refuse.

"Okay, I'll accept it this time, and don't waste money next time." The dean put the gift away with a smile, then turned his head and told Zhu Tianyi, "Xiao Tian, ​​take Xiao Mu to the cleaned room to rest. .”

"Dean's mother, you don't even care about me." Zhu Tianyi pretended to be angry beside him.

"How old is the child and still acting like a baby, let me cook you something delicious later." The dean patted Zhu Tianyi's hand, she was always full of affection for this child who was brought up since childhood.

"Okay, I miss the dean's mother's craftsmanship." Zhu Tianyi said with a smile. Mu Xi, who had seen Zhu Tianyi's many faces, had never seen such a gentle and lovely side of him.

"You and the dean must have a good relationship." After Zhu Tianyi closed the door, Mu Xi said, he could see that the relationship between the two was no less than that between a mother and a child.

"Well, the dean's mother is just like my mother. She raised me and provided me with education. You can also see that the conditions in the hospital are not very good, so it is really not easy." A rare seriousness appeared in Zhu Tianyi's eyes. He has always been grateful for his life these years. If the dean hadn't brought him back, maybe he wouldn't be able to live at all.

Mu Xi nodded, since he came in, he found that the environment of this orphanage was very ordinary. Although it was very tidy, the outer walls were cracked, the railings were covered with rust, and the playing field for the children was also very dilapidated.

"It must be very hard, running this orphanage." Mu Xi couldn't help sighing.

"The dean's mother never told us about hard work." Zhu Tianyi said in a heavy tone, "Our group has nine children, and the cost of studying is very high. Even if we work part-time, we can only share some, but the hospital The eldest mother gritted her teeth and we all sent to college, but several times I saw her holding our tuition bill and sighing."

"So you have to be filial to her." Mu Xi reached out and patted Zhu Tianyi's shoulder.

Zhu Tianyi nodded, but did not speak.

The heavy atmosphere between the two was interrupted by a knock on the door. Zhu Tianyi stepped forward to open the door, and a small figure ran into the room nimbly.

"Brother Xixi." Qi Qi hugged Mu Xi's leg and didn't let go.

"Qiqi." Mu Xi reached out and stroked Qiqi's hair, "Why did you come up here?"

"I miss my brother." Qi Qi blinked her beautiful eyes, "I'm here to help my brother."

"Qiqi, why didn't you treat me so well?" Zhu Tianyi beside him was indignant, "I treated you so well and you didn't even say you missed me."

"I also miss brother Zhu Zhu." Qiqi replied seriously, "but I miss brother Xixi the most."

Mu Xi was so adorable by Qi Qi's cute answer, she couldn't help pinching Qi Qi's cheek: "Why do you miss me?"

"Brother Xixi is like a prince." Qi Qi rubbed Mu Xi's hand, "I like brother Xixi the most."

"Ah, Qiqi, I'm so handsome, why don't I look like a prince?" Zhu Tianyi was unhappy when he was beside him, he was a handsome guy anyway.

"Zhu Zhu, don't be so serious with children, okay?" Mu Xi couldn't help but stop Zhu Tianyi from acting stupid. A man of his age was still so serious with children.

Qiqi looked at the two brothers in confusion, and said with a smile, "Qiqi likes both."

"Okay, okay, Qiqi and Brother Zhu Zhu went to see if there is anything delicious." Zhu Tianyi stretched out his arms to pick up Qiqi, "The dean's mother said to cook something delicious for us."

"It's delicious!" Qiqi also followed Zhu Tianyi and waved her little hands, seeming to be excited too.

"Clean up the wood, and go downstairs to eat after packing." Zhu Tianyi took Qi Qi and left excitedly, and before leaving, he still thoughtfully closed the door.

"It's really two children." Mu Xi shook his head subconsciously, but there was a smile on his lips. Children are indeed the most healing cuties.

When Mu Xi went downstairs, there was already a burst of fragrance from the kitchen.

"Is there anything I can help with?" Mu Xi walked in to help.

"Wood, go and chop carrots and potatoes." Zhu Tianyi ordered bluntly while washing things, but was knocked hard by the dean.

"Xiao Mu went outside to play with the children. There is a lot of oily smoke here." The dean said with a smile.

"It's okay, I can still do it." Mu Xi washed his hands, picked up the things and started cutting. His family is not a wealthy family. Although he is the youngest, he has done everything.

"Xiao Tian, ​​look at others, look at you." The dean looked at Mu Xi with admiration, and said with some disgust.

"I cut it so well, I can eat big pieces." Zhu Tianyi retorted dissatisfiedly. In fact, he seldom entered the kitchen. He was the youngest at that time, and basically he couldn't do any work.

Mu Xi couldn't help laughing out loud: "Zhu Zhu, it's justified if you can't do well."

"...You are all bullying me." Zhu Tianyi decided not to speak, but he couldn't help but asked after a while, "Mother of the dean, brothers and sisters, aren't they coming back?"

"They all called me..." the dean talked about it, and finally said, "Xiaotian, it's time for you to start a family."

Zhu Tianyi blushed with embarrassment, "It's not that far yet."

"Where's Xiao Mu?" The dean decided to let Zhu Tianyi go, she turned her head and asked Mu Xi.

Mu Xi, who was caught off guard by this question, choked on his own saliva, and finally managed to calm down. Seeing the dean's concerned eyes, he could only answer truthfully: "I didn't plan to start a family so early."

"You young people..." The dean shook his head, "Just as long as you are happy."

Mu Xi and Zhu Tianyi looked at each other and smiled, both of them saw the helplessness in their eyes, it was indeed common for them to be urged to marry at their age.

Probably the dean made him feel too kind, so it's rare that Mu Xi didn't feel any discomfort because of this problem.

After happily finishing dinner, Zhu Tianyi and Mu Xi consciously went to wash the dishes, and the children were driven away to study by the principal, so they were rarely quiet.

"Wood, how is it?" Zhu Tianyi took the opportunity to ask. He was actually a little worried that Mu Xi was not used to it. Mu Xi was not easy to get close to people, and children were generally very enthusiastic, so he was very worried.

"Very good." Mu Xi said while tidying up, "I like children very much, thank you."

"That's good." Zhu Tianyi breathed a sigh of relief, "But it's noisy, right?"

"No, it's very cute." Mu Xi shook his head. There are not many children in the courtyard, and the children are very precocious, so they are all well-behaved.

Mu Xi looked at the sky outside the window, tomorrow should be a good day.
