Chapter 128 Development is a bit fast
"mom……"
After Ning Suyi was a little stunned, her face turned red with almost no time to transition, and she didn't dare to look at Tai Shuying's face.
Her reaction was rare.
He always looked calm and calm, except for the last time when he went out for a date with Jing Chi, jumping out of the house, and he looked like a young girl.
At this moment, she pursed her lips and glanced at one side, her eyes drooping slightly, with a slight shy, embarrassed, and at a loss-like gesture of her little daughter.
No need for her to say anything, Tai Shuying doesn't understand anything.
She felt that the two children developed a little fast, and at the same time she felt a little unspeakable relief. It was because she watched Xiao Chi, who had grown up, and had a relationship with Su Su for more than 20 years. He always revolved around her. I heard that she had a crush on her for many years, but her mind had been on her and there was nothing to worry about.
This thought circled in my heart for a while, and Tai Shuying smiled and patted her arm: "Mom is not an old antique, she is very open-minded. Mom just asked casually and got a general understanding. You have no psychological burden. Xiao Chi's child is not picky. As long as you are well, I will feel relieved."
Ning Su wanted to speak but stopped and wanted to tell her that Jing Chi had proposed to get engaged, but she didn't know how to speak. She turned around and swallowed it back.
"You mother and daughter hide there and say something, and I will listen to it." Ning Zongde came out of the old man's bedroom with his hands behind his back and looked at them with a gentle smile.
Tai Shuying looked at him angrily: "We mother and daughter are whispering, what's wrong with you? Go and go, water the flowers on the balcony."
Ning Zongde nodded, muttering "You can squeeze me out", while carrying a watering can to the balcony to water the flowers.
Tai Shuying revealed this topic and did not mention it. The main reason was that she was afraid that Ning Suyi would be embarrassed. She smiled and said something else: "Your Aunt Zhen and I are going to try to make mooncakes myself. You can sit and rest."
Ning Suyi's face was still red, and she let out a sigh of relief and said, "I'll help you."
"It's a rare holiday, so don't be busy."
"I'm watching you do it on the side, okay? I can learn the skills by the way. I can try it when I'm free."
"That's OK."
The mother and daughter entered the kitchen. Aunt Zhen had already put all the ingredients needed on the middle island table, and used a weighing meter to accurately prepare the ingredients, and several mooncake molds were placed aside.
Ning Suyi was eager to try: "What kind of mooncake are you going to make?"
"I know you like to eat egg yolk lotus paste stuffing, this one." Tai Shuying pointed to the salted duck eggs on the plate beside her, and then said, "Your grandfather wants to eat five-nuts, and your dad and I like to eat bean paste stuffing. Your uncle and your cousin said that they don't particularly prefer it, and An An doesn't even taste mooncakes, so he only makes three kinds of stuffings."
While talking, Tai Shuying placed a glass container on a weighing machine, poured in the conversion syrup, peanut oil, alkaline water, medium gluten flour, and stirred together.
Ning Suyi's desire to try slowly cooled down, and it looked so complicated.
Aunt Zhen was rubbing bean paste balls, and the two of them had a clear division of labor. Ning Suyi became a pure spectator, a little embarrassed: "Is there anything I can do?"
Tai Shuying smiled and said, "You really want to help, smash the salted duck eggs, take out the egg yolks, wash them with 52-degree white wine, and use them later."
"good."
Ning Suyi rolled up her sleeves, went to the vegetable sink to wash her hands, and processed the egg yolks.
The three women were busy in the kitchen all morning, not only making some moon cakes, but also making dumplings. Aunt Zhen also cooked a table of hearty dishes and prepared lunch until after 1:00 pm.
Tai Shuying and Aunt Zhen were responsible for serving the dishes, and Ning Suyi went to the bedroom on the first floor to push the old man out. He could move both hands, but his intelligence still had not recovered and he often couldn't recognize anyone.
When he saw Ning Suyi, the old man grinned and smiled, and he still said the same thing: "Su Yi... is back from school...?"
"Grandpa, today's Mid-Autumn Festival is on holiday, and the school will not be held." Ning Suyi cooperated with him in acting, "I made dumplings for you, remember to taste a few more later."
She couldn't handle the mooncakes, and she was quite skilled in making dumplings, so most of the dumplings were made by her.
"Okay... OK." The old man turned his head and smiled with a trembling corner of his mouth.
Ning Zongcheng and Ning Yiyang were both at home. They didn't go downstairs in the morning. Aunt Zhen went up and called out, and the father and son came down. Ning Su agreed with the two and said hello indifferently: "Uncle, brother."
The two nodded at her, and there was nothing else to say.
Ning Suyi turned around and asked Ning Yu'an, who was addicted to cartoons, to come for dinner.
He was much taller than when he first came to Ning's house, his body became much stronger, and his cheeks were covered with fat flesh.
"When you finish your meal, don't forget to call your mother for a video call, wish her a happy Mid-Autumn Festival and ask her if she has any delicious food." Ning Suyi told him.
Ning Yu'an glanced at her, curled his mouth, and said unhappily: "I understand."
Grandpa muttered in his ear every day, saying that his mother ran away with someone and wanted him to ask him to contact his mother less in the future and not turn his elbows out. Ning Suyi asked her to greet her again, but he didn't know who he was going to listen to.
Ning Yuan sat at the dining table in annoyance, playing with her cell phone while eating.
Seeing this, Ning Yiyang frowned and scolded him: "How many times have you told me, don't play with your mobile phone while eating. Your academic performance has declined during this period, and the teacher has called me. Are you addicted to mobile phones and have no intention of studying? If you want to do this again, your mobile phone will be confiscated."
Ning Yuan snorted, put his phone in his pocket, and shouted at him: "I know how to scold me every time! Why don't you go to a parent-teacher meeting?!"
At the parent meeting last Monday, Ning Yiyang didn’t attend the meeting. Ning Zongde went there on his behalf. Afterwards, the head teacher called Ning Yiyang and briefly explained the child’s situation.
Ning Yiyang looked at his rebellious son and wanted to teach him a lesson. Ning Zongcheng took the opportunity to say, "It's time to celebrate the festival, don't be unable to get along with the children."
Ning Suyi just pretended that she didn't see or hear, so she picked up a dumpling for the old man with public chopsticks: "Grandpa, try it, this is made of pork and mushroom stuffing."
The woman Ning Yiyang raised outside was pregnant. She didn't know whether the child was born or not. She had never paid attention to it and was too lazy to spend time asking.
When my grandfather was awake, he did not allow that woman to enter the house. I wonder what Ning Yiyang plans next.
Ning Suyi was thinking a lot. The old man trembled and picked up the dumplings with his hands. He didn't feed them into his mouth. He took them to his eyes and looked carefully, and suddenly laughed.
"Dad, what are you looking at?" Tai Shuying raised her eyes and saw the old man's actions. She was so curious that she couldn't help asking.
The others also looked at the old man, wondering what strange things about this dumpling were worthy of being staring at him for a long time, and smiling with relief.
The old man pointed at Ning Suyi and said, "We Suyi... finally learned to... make dumplings. We used to be able to make... Little Sun."
Ning Suyi's hand holding the chopsticks stopped hard, and her expression was stunned.
Grandpa's words immediately brought her back when she was a child. Before she was eight years old, she was a little naughty.
When her parents are not busy, they will pick her up from the Jing family. Every time she makes dumplings, she is extremely excited. She likes to play with dough and often learns from adults, rolls out dough and pinches dumplings. But she can't make it well, and always reveals the filling. Finally, she spreads the dumpling skin on the table, digs a spoonful of meat filling and puts it on it, covers another dumpling skin, presses her fingers around, and pinches it into a small sun-shaped dumpling.
Among the cooked dumplings, you can tell which ones she made. Grandpa picked up a small sun dumpling and said with great confidence: "I'll try our Su Yi's craftsmanship."
Ning Suyi was very happy when someone supported her and ran around her grandfather's chair...
When I recalled this, Ning Suyi was a little confused. Those times seemed to be far away from her, so that the memories in her mind were covered with a hazy light and blurred.
Ning Suyi pulled the corner of her mouth and smiled sadly: "Yes, grandpa, I learned to make dumplings." He had learned it a long time ago, but he forgot.
Ning Zongcheng witnessed the warm interaction between the grandfather and grandson. For a moment, those bad thoughts came out again. According to the old man's current enthusiasm for beating Ning Suyi, wouldn't he leave all the inheritance to her, right?
Or was the will drafted before his brain was confused?
I didn't hear any sound of the wind, and I don't know what the situation was.
Asked Ning Yiyang to inquire with the old man, he was like a wooden man. He had not done anything for so long. God knew what he was busy with all day long, and was he being mixed up by the woman outside.
Ning Zongcheng kicked Ning Yiyang's foot under the table. The latter was stunned for a moment and turned his head to look at his father. Ning Zongcheng gave him a look and signaled him to look at the old man and Ning Suyi.
Is he not in a hurry?
If the will is not made, the old man closed his name and wanted to leave all the inheritance to Ning Suyi, how many of them will go to drink the northwest wind?
Ning Yiyang pretended not to understand what he meant and lowered his head to concentrate on eating.
Ning Zongcheng's face was gloomy. After taking a few mouthfuls of food, his mind became active again. The old man's body seemed useless, but he delayed it day after day and occasionally he was in good spirits.
He stayed at home and did nothing for so many days, and was really suffocated and was exhausted. But the old man's condition was not fixed, so he didn't dare to go out and go out for a walk.
——
After lunch, Ning Suyi cut half a piece of five-nut mooncake for the old man. It was purely handmade, without messy additives or pigments, and it was healthy and delicious.
The old man wiped out half of the piece, and his appetite was good, so he wanted to eat another piece. Ning Suyi didn't dare to give it to him, so he coaxed him to drink some warm water, pushed him to the bedroom, and took care of him for a nap.
When he came out again, the living room became quiet and the leftovers in the restaurant were cleaned up. Tai Shuying asked in a low voice: "Are you asleep?"
"Well, I fell asleep quickly after taking the medicine."
Tai Shuying sighed, and she was getting less and less able to remember the old man who was so serious and harsh and ruthless in the past. Then she thought, it’s enough for the elderly to live happily, but they just want to be younger generations?
Ning Suyi went to the kitchen and asked Aunt Zhen: "Do you have so many mooncakes?"
Aunt Zhen wiped her hands, took out two trays, filled with mooncakes, and narrowed her eyes with a smile: "Look, there are so many, I can't finish it in ten or half a month."
Ning Suyi: "I'll take some to my grandma to try."
Aunt Zhen knew that the "grandma" she was talking about was the old lady of the Jing family, and hurriedly said, "I think it's OK, you wait, I'll find you a slightly better box."
"No need to be so troublesome, right?"
"It's better to pack the gifts."
"My mother should have sent a gift?" Both families had contacts during the holidays, but she basically didn't ask about it. It was all Tai Shuying's idea.
Aunt Zhen found a red food box-style packaging box, with four layers on top and bottom, holding stainless steel clips, and put a few mooncakes for each filling in. She said in a friendly tone: "Yes, yesterday my wife sent a box of hairy crabs to Jingzhai, but the mooncake gift box was not sent. My wife said that every year it is a mooncake gift box, and it is not sincere to send it to you, so everyone doesn't necessarily like to eat it. However, the meaning of our own hands is different."
After a pause, Aunt Zhen said, "There are many people in the well house, so put on more."
Ning Suyi nodded, watched her tidy up the mooncakes, then covered the lid, tied it with a ribbon and tied it with a beautiful knot, which looked like a delicate gift.
"What are you doing in the kitchen?" Tai Shuying was about to come over to wash some fruits, but she saw the two of them gathered together and whispered.
Aunt Zhen turned her head to look at her and explained with a smile: "Suku, I want to decorate some mooncakes and send them to the Jing family for the old lady to taste."
"Oh." Tai Shuying's tone rose, with a two-point teasing meaning.
Ning Suyi pretended not to understand her teasing intentions and carried a box of mooncakes: "Then I'll leave."
Tai Shuying waved: "Go and go."
The temperature today was a few degrees lower than yesterday. Even in the afternoon, the wind was a little cool on my face, and Ning Suyi rose to the window on the driver's seat.
About twenty minutes later, the car drove into the villa of Yongcui Yuefu and Jing family.
She didn't say hello to Jing Chi in advance, and was about to start scaring him. Just as she was thinking, the ringtone of the cell phone in the passenger seat rang. She stopped the car and picked it up and took it for a look.

These two people were so tired that they had only been separated for a long time, but my sister actually went there...
