In a dream

Chapter 15

"How can there be such a strong smell of Chinese medicine?"

Mu Elegy opened the door and turned sideways to let Xie Jingwan into the house.After staying in this house for a long time, she has become accustomed to the thick or light smell of traditional Chinese medicine that radiates here at any time.It's just that Xie Jingwan was a little uncomfortable with the smell, she wrinkled her nose and asked when she entered the room, the thick smell of Chinese herbal medicine hit her face, and she felt a little nauseous.

Mu Elegy scratched her head, closed the door and let out a sigh of annoyance with her back to Xie Jingwan. She forgot to tell Auntie Hour not to come over to make herbal meals today. "Oh, it's medicated diet. When I first came back, my body was not used to it. A friend introduced an old doctor of Chinese medicine. He said that the diet list opened is very effective in conditioning the body. Please come here and make a list to cook some medicated diet. I want to recuperate. Before that, please After an hour, auntie will come to make some every day. So..." After a pause, Mu Wanqu raised her index finger and smiled and hooked Xie Jingwan's face "Besides, you see I am so thin, take some medicinal food to make up for it Isn't it good to be white and fat? It's more comfortable for you to hold a fleshy one." After saying that, he winked at Xie Jingwan.

Xie Jingwan was a little embarrassed by her action, blushed slightly, turned her back to her and replied shyly, "Okay..." Mu Elegy's health has always been poor, since the first time he was in the orphanage From the moment she saw her, she seldom had time to look naturally rosy.When she was a child, her father often took her to the hospital for examination. Although she said that there was nothing wrong with her every time she came back, her complexion was never so good.Xie Jingwan put the bag on the brown fabric sofa in the living room, turned around and took the shopping bag from Mu Wansinger, "Your complexion has been worse than ordinary people since you were a child, you should make up for it."

"Well," Mu Elegy walked into the kitchen, unbuttoned the cuffs of his white shirt and rolled the sleeves up on his elbows, "I'll make you a veal steak."

"You can do it?"

Mu Elegy pursed her lips, "You look down on me so much." She may not be able to cook two dishes for Chinese food, but for Western food, she asked some advice from the chef of the restaurant where she worked part-time during her study abroad. Influenced by her humanistic culture, the western food she cooks is still decent. "But to be honest, with the beauty looking at me, I have to do it even if I don't know how to do it. If the beauty is in a good mood to help me, I will make it more delicious!"

Xie Jingwan laughed at her poor mouth, and pinched the corner of her mouth with her hand, "Okay, I will help you. But Mu Mu, I haven't seen you for so many years, how did your mouth become so poor?"

"That's because facing the person you like, you can play freely."

Xie Jingwan smiled and nodded, expressing her approval, reached out and took a piece of garlic and peeled it, her eyes accidentally glanced at a black old-fashioned casserole with a smooth surface and a smooth surface on the other side of the stove. , "Is that medicinal food?"

Looking in the direction Xie Jingwan was looking at, Mu Elegy replied casually, "Yes. You can eat some later, there is always no harm."

Xie Jingwan frowned, showing a disgusted expression: "I don't want it, it smells so bad."

Mu Elegy joked that she didn't know how to cherish this great tonic that came out after a few hours of hard work. "Don't worry about it. The effect of this product is still good. I think I have been more energetic recently, and my appetite has also improved."

He raised his hand towards Xie Jingwan and made a bicep show, "Look, I have grown stronger, and I lost a lot of weight when I first came back."

"Okay, if the effect is good, you can eat more." Put a piece of garlic peeled in your hand on the stove, and then glanced at the black casserole. Clearly, Xie Jingwan asked suspiciously, "I seem to have seen this casserole on TV before. It is a family heirloom of a very famous old Chinese medicine practitioner."

Xie Jingwan wondered if she had read it wrong. After all, it was on TV. How could someone take out such an antique with an unknown age and sell it?What's more, the other party was an old Chinese doctor. She remembered that when she saw the documentary about the history of Chinese medicine, the old Chinese doctor with a long white beard and gray hair in the camera was squatting on the ground and fanning the small stove to light up the fire. On the stove is a black casserole that looks exactly like this casserole.

"Oh?" Mu Elegy turned her head and took a serious look at the casserole, her eyes darkened. She remembered that when Xia Yanhuan brought the hourly aunt here on the first day, she specifically asked not to break it, saying that the casserole was a The baby will be returned to the owner in the future.At that time, she joked that Xia Yanhuan usually took nothing as a treasure, but she cared so much about a casserole. Now that Xie Jingwan said it, she guessed that Xia Yanhuan begged someone to borrow it. "I don't know either. A friend asked someone to buy it."

"Well, in the Chinese medicine program I watched before, someone said that the longer the casserole lasts, the more effective the medicine will be. I don't know if it's true." Xie Jingwan put the last garlic away, turned on the faucet and washed it. I washed my hands and didn't continue talking about this topic.

Mu Elegy didn't continue talking about casserole and medicinal food, and every time she found some small and subtle concerns, she felt more guilty towards Xia Yanhuan in her heart.

After Mu Elegy's chef, Xie Jingwan, helped cook a sumptuous western meal, lit two candles to add to the fun, opened a bottle of red wine and ate it, Mu Elegy hugged Xie Jingwan Jingwan leaned on the sofa with her shoulders and watched a warm little movie.

When the hero and heroine kissed affectionately on the TV screen to end the small movie, Xie Jingwan turned her head and bit Mu Elegy's lips, sucking them lightly.It has been almost a month since she reunited with Mu Elegy, but she still feels a little unreal, and there is always an illusion that the person in front of her will disappear at any time.

Mu Elegy bit back the playful flaps of her lips, feeling inexplicably satisfied.

After the kiss was over, Xie Jingwan's face was bright red, she hugged Mu Elegy a little shyly, quietly feeling her warm breath blowing over her neck, it was warm and itchy.

The ringtone of the mobile phone broke the short-term tenderness, took out the mobile phone and looked at the screen, Xie Jingwan turned slightly unnaturally to avoid Mu Elegy, and either hung up or hung up.

"Is it your mother?" Mu Elegy put her hands together and put her head behind her head. In fact, she saw the word "Mom" on the screen of Xie Jingwan's phone.

Xie Jingwan took a deep breath, now that Mu Elegy knew who it was, she no longer evasively picked it up, "Hello, Mom?"

"..." What the other party answered, Mu Elegy couldn't hear clearly, Xie Jingwan held up the phone and didn't answer.

"I'll be back soon. Well, bye."

After hanging up the phone, Xie Jingwan let go of her hands in a slump, and it was already 10:30 p.m. on the phone screen.She proposed to go home, but Mu Elegy didn't force her to stay in her own house. She said she wanted to go home, so she nodded and said, "I'll take you back."

Xie Jingwan refused her request, so she watched her car start, turned around and got out of the garage, drove the car and secretly followed her at a certain distance, watching her turning on the turn signal when turning, and turning on the red light. The light behind the rear of the car glowed red when the car braked slowly.It was not until watching her car being released into the villas that Mu Elegy turned off the engine and opened the roof.The greenery in this area is very good, and the wind at night made the leaves sway slightly. She bent down and groped in the car for a while, and finally took out a beautiful cigarette case, took out a slender women's cigarette from it, and lit it, but it didn't turn on. suck.

Squinting to see the security guard looking at her side, Mu Elegy smiled self-deprecatingly, she had lived here for several years.Throwing away the cigarette in her hand, she gathered her collar, feeling a little cold, and lowering the roof, there was a faint smell of smoke in the car that hadn't dissipated.

In the dark, the silver-gray Mercedes-Benz trotted quietly but stubbornly stayed in place for a long time before slowly leaving.

When Xie Jingwan's car drove into her garage, there were no lights in the yard, and the whole house was so quiet that she thought everyone was asleep.After entering the password, the door opened and walked in lightly, for fear of disturbing the sleep of the nanny who lived on the first floor.

"Jingwan." In the darkness, a familiar call came from the direction of the sofa in the living room. Xie Jingwan was startled, and her heartbeat accelerated. She stroked her chest and took a breath, walked to the wall and turned on the light .

"Mom, why don't you turn on the light? You scared me." The light in the living room was turned on, Xie Jingwan took a closer look, and Chen Liran sat on the sofa neatly dressed, "Why didn't you take a shower and go to bed so late? "

Chen Liran looked up at Xie Jingwan, with an angry expression on her face, "Have you seen that little bitch Mu Elegy?"

Hearing her mother say this about her beloved, Xie Jingwan felt very uncomfortable, and wanted to correct her, but she gave up after seeing her angry expression, and replied after silently sighing, " No, why?"

Since Xie Jingwan took over the company, she deliberately gave up nearly half of the company's small business projects and transferred most of the company's shares. Chen Liran no longer insisted on the company's operating interests. She knew that Xie Jingwan had a gentle temper since she was a child. Her ambition and ambition were not too great, so she let her go. Originally, Chen Liran herself was not particularly talented in business.

After Xie Jingwan was basically familiar with the affairs of the company, after taking over, Chen Liran was also happy to no longer interfere with the affairs of the company. Most of the time, she went out to drink tea and play cards with a few rich wives. With such a high-profile return, she felt a little uneasy.

She was still the owner of the fashionable skin care product that appeared so frequently on TV recently when she heard the people next to her talk about JW, a rising star in the beauty industry, when she went to a beauty salon for skin care. It turned out to be Mu Elegy.

When she first heard the news, Chen Liran felt a little dizzy. She couldn't believe that a young woman who had been abroad for ten years could start such a big company with a single hand.She didn't believe it was true until the people next to her saw that she didn't believe it and handed her a financial magazine, and saw the picture of Mu Elegy smiling confidently occupying the entire page.
