"But you wanted Nanny Sui's special chicken curry. I contacted her and made it according to her recipe. The only difference is that I added some vegetable, some Bell peppers.."
Mo Dunguo listed various extra things he added which he thought would make the dish more healthier.
Mo Xung's lip began to twitch. "Who is the fool that asked you to cook food? What is the chef doing if you are cooking?" He cried.
" Weren't you the one?" Mo Dunguo gazed at his son as his brows furrowed.
Mo Xung pointed at himself " I? Mo Xung? When?How?" He was completely dumbfounded.
" Yes, You. Yesterday. When you drank with me." Mo Dunguo stated with poker face.
Mo Xung "..." I was seriously joking Dad. If i told you that i miss mom and asked you to become like her..Then, Would you crossdress like her?
Mo Xung gave a long sigh. Just then, The door bell rang.
*Ding Dong*
" I guess Nanny Sui came to hand over her pickle. Let's go meet her before she leaves for her hometown. " Mo Dunguo took the wheelchair to Mo Xung.
Mo Xung brows shot up. " Nanny Sui is going to her hometown all of a sudden! For how many days? Why didn't she tell me?"
Mo Dunguo answered as he helped Mo Xung sit in the wheelchair. " She said that she got a call from her daughter from hometown that she was very sick and alone. So, She needed to go immediately. After that she informed that she will dropping by to give the pickle jar."
Mo Xung was upset by her sudden decision. He quickly spoke " Let's go. Otherwise she will leave." Afterwards they left the room.
Meanwhile;
The door was opened by a maid. "Yes? Who are you?" She asked.
Before Xi Mei could respond , She smiled as she spoke " You must be Granny Sui's granddaughter."
Xi Mei was suprised "How did you know?" The maid pointed at the pickle container in Xi Mei's hand. Then only, Xi Mei realized it.
"Has Granny Sui left already?" She asked. "Yeah, She left already and told me to give this here in her stead."
"Come inside then." The maid opened the door completely to let her in. Xi Mei nodded as she slowly got her way in.
Xi Mei couldn't help but gasp in amazement at how good and luxurious the place looked. The Furniture ,the Paintings, the Interior design, the huge chandelier..Everything felt so classy and familiar.
Familiar? Yes, Grandma told me that I came here few times. So, it's natural for me to find it familiar. But i am shocked that this place hasn't changed much even after so many years has passed already.
When she was looking here and there, The maid had already brought a tray of tea. " Sit and have a tea while i will call the Master."
Xi Mei shook her head " No need. I just came by to pass this pickles. So, don't bother." She carefully passed the container to the maid.
The maid took it and looked at her flashing a smile " I have heard a lot about you from Grandma Sui. As expected, You are really pretty."
"Thank You. You also look young and beautiful. Are you in twenties?" Xi Mei asked curiously.
The maid chuckled softly " No i am not. I am already thirty-five and have a son." Xi Mei jaw dropped slightly. "What? Really? But You look so young."
The maid smiled in response. "Are you already leaving?" The maid asked in a little disappointment. But before Xi Mei could response, She heard a very familiar voice.
"Who is leaving already?"
They both turned to look Mo Xung sitting at the wheel chair and Mo Dunguo behind him gripping the handle of it.
When Mo Xung and Xi Mei's eyes met, their eyes widened in shock. " Why are you here?" They spoke in unison.
The maid and Mo Dunguo both were startled. 'Did they know eachother?' The thought flashed in their mind.
" Xiao Xung, You know her?" Mo Dunguo asked. But he didn't respond to him instead answered Xi Mei.
"What do you mean, Why am i here? This is my house. I am the owner's son. But Why are you here? And..And Where is Nanny Sui?"
Mo Xung gazed at the pickle container in the maid's hands. "Did she left already? If she dropped by then she should've met me at least. Is she still angry that i got into accident?" He asked looking at the maid.
The maid didn't know what to say. Just then, Mo Dunguo deep voice rangout " Are you by chance, Nanny Sui's granddaughter?"
Xi Mei nodded her head in response " Yes, I am her eldest granddaughter. She knew she couldn't make it in time, so she made me come here in her instead to pass the pickle and left already. She also said she would call you soon."
Mo Dunguo nodded his head but confusion was clearly written in his face. Xi Mei sensed his confusion and said " Actually, Your son and I..We are classmate. "
"So that is the case" Realization hit both Mo Dunguo and the Maid.
"What's your name?" Mo Dunguo asked. "My name is Xi Mei. You can call me, Xiao Mei, Uncle Dunguo." Xi Mei bowed slightly.
"Oh My, I now remember you. You used to come here often and play with..Haha, What a pleasant coincidence. Xiao Xung, Do you remember he-"
Before he could complete his sentence, Mo Xung slightly trembling voice was heard " Are.. you really Meimei?"
Everyone was startled for a moment including Xi Mei. After a while, She flashed a cute smile before nodding her head " Yeah, I am. Nice to see you again. I totally didn't recognize you at the school."
