TRANSMIGRATED TO THE 80S TO BECOME STEPMOTHERS FOR FIVE HIGHER-UPS

Chapter 210: Ji Buwang Is Here Too

Li Zhaodi and her husband had prepared a birthday present for Mu Jingzhe, and even Mu Han had given her a gift.

Since they had not moved to another place after dividing up the family assets, Old Lady Mu and the oldest branch of the Mu Family could hear the joyful laughter by the side of Mu Jingzhe and his parents. Mu Xue could also hear them and felt a little dazed upon hearing the commotion.

It used to be crowded on her birthday. In the morning, she would eat noodles and eggs. Her grandmother would even prepare a gift for her and specifically kill a chicken to celebrate her birthday. She is the only happy girl in the village who celebrates her birthday. No one cared about Mu Jingzhe's birthday.

This time, it was the opposite. Mu Jingzhe's birthday was so festive that the entire village knew about it.

Old Madam Mu grumbled, “Isn't this just a birthday? What's so great about that? It's not even a special birthday[1].” Old Lady Mu frowned when mentioning the birthday celebration. This year, he was supposed to be celebrating his special birthday, but Mu Xue's marriage failed, and his eldest son and the three seemed to have forgotten him. It was useless no matter how much he hinted at it.

Mu Jingzhe pulled Mu Teng and Li Zhaodi out. When he saw Old Madam Mu's long face, he smiled even happier.

“Let's go, Dad, Mom. You should eat well today and enjoy life.”

Chickens kept at home are more or less ready to be killed. He can kill two chickens and get two fish. Combined with the vegetables he had bought before, they could enjoy a sumptuous meal.

Mu Jingzhe had a good plan. He had not expected to find a pile of items at the door once he got home. Ji Buwang and Shao Qihai stood at the door, facing each other. There were also two chickens with legs tied to their feet.

Ji Buwang's eyes sparkled when he saw Mu Jingzhe. “Jingzhe, you're finally back. I'm here, but Shao Qihai won't let me in.”

"This is ..." Mu Jingzhe wanted to leave, but the chickens on the ground blocked his path.

“I prepared it for you. You are a birthday girl today, so you should eat and drink well. You weren't supposed to cook, so I bought some stuff and came early to prepare for your birthday party. These are the ingredients I bought.

“Because my culinary skills are not so good, I originally wanted to bring the chefs here and have them prepare a birthday banquet for you. This way, everyone in the village can come to celebrate your birthday. However, I was afraid of bloodshed, so I could only regret giving up. ”

As he said the last sentence, Ji Buwang glanced meaningfully at the enraged Shao Qihai and whispered to Mu Jingzhe, "If gazes could kill, I would have already been hacked."

Mu Jingzhe was extremely helpless. If it was someone else, they would probably be angry as well. "Why are you thinking of buying so many things?"

Shao Qihai snorted after hearing Mu Jingzhe's words. "That's fine. As if we can't afford it.”

“If you can afford it, you can buy it yourself. Where are the things you buy? If you take it out, I will immediately take mine back, ” replied Ji Buwang immediately.

Shao Qihai froze. His expression was uglier than before, and his face turned green. "You…"

Shao Qihai was furious at Ji Buwang's arrogance and the fact that he wanted a yard after taking an inch. Also, he was angry at himself for doing nothing and giving Ji Buwang such an opportunity.

If he noticed it early and made preparations, he could just kick it out. Unfortunately, he was unprepared and had nothing to take out.

“Look, I knew this was going to happen. That's why I bought all this stuff. I just want Jingzhe to have a nice birthday.”

If Mu Jingzhe was willing to go out to celebrate his birthday, there would be greater variety and no need to bother. However, celebrating in the village was also fine, as it made Li Zhaodi happy as well.

Ji Buwang looked at Li Zhaodi and greeted her affectionately. “Auntie, today is the day of your suffering. You need to rest, eat, and drink well. You gave birth to a good girl like Jingzhe. You are doing a great deed, so there are more and more reasons to value yourself. ”

Li Zhaodi knew that Ji Buwang's words were sincere. These words really touched the bottom of his heart. This was the first time someone had said this to her.

"Why are you so sweet? Get in fast. Your hand must have hurt.”

Mu Jingzhe did not stop him. Ji Buwang must have bought these items early and rushed over early in the morning. He couldn't let her down, so he received the groceries quickly.

In this way, both the giver and the receiver will feel good. He could only retaliate in the future.

Sure enough, Ji Buwang beamed. Of course, it would be best if he did not stare at Shao Qihai with a provocative gaze before entering the house.

Shao Qihai's face turned green and red, then green again, because what Ji Buwang said was actually his own mind. However, it was Ji Buwang who had done and said that.

He didn't do enough. He needs to reflect.

"Mom, I'll get it." Shao Qihai pondered to himself as he retrieved the items from Li Zhaodi's hands. Hearing the word 'Mother' made Li Zhaodi's hands tremble and also made Ji Buwang direct an unfriendly gaze towards her.

Why did Shao Qihai address her as 'Mother' directly when she still called her as 'Auntie'?

However, Shao Qihai was very calm and did not even glance at Ji Buwang. He had changed the way he greeted Li Zhaodi when they got married. It was just that he didn't have much of a chance to call her that afterwards.

Shao Qihai calmed down and showed the advantages of being the host as he served the guest, Ji Buwang.

“Sit, Buwang. Anyone who comes here is a guest. Drink water and rest for a while. As for the rest, let me do my job as a host. ” He took the identity of the male owner of the house.

“I know best what I bought. Shao Qihai, you should sit down and rest.” Ji Buwang ignored him. As soon as he finished speaking, there was a beeping sound from the door.

Ji Buwang stood up to handle it. "The goat is here."

As he spoke, he did not forget to call Mu Jingzhe, “Jingzhe, come and take a look! Do you like to eat mutton? I bought a goat from one of the villagers. Goats in the village are more fragrant.”

Hearing that, the villagers who mostly herded and sold goats were very happy. They smiled and agreed. "That's fine. Our black mountain goat is the most delicious. ”

“Uncle, thank you. Remember to come and eat with us tonight.” Ji Buwang picked up the goat and told Mu Jingzhe, “Tonight, those who love mutton will eat mutton, while those who do not like will eat chicken and fish. I also bought fish.”

Seeing Mu Jingzhe speechless, Ji Buwang was wary. “You can't say that you don't eat mutton. Last time, you said that mutton was delicious. ”

Mu Jingzhe forgot that he had told Ji Buwang about it before. He might have just mentioned it casually, or he had heard it tell the children, but he remembered it.

Shaking his head, he said, “I won't say that. Just kill it and let's eat good. You've never tried mutton, have you? Let's have a good meal tonight. I will go invite the villagers who know how to prepare mutton. ”

It was a pity that the five children did not have time to eat for the last time. This time, it will be right.

After hearing this, Ji Buwang smiled. Shao Qihai, who was watching from the sidelines, gritted his teeth. When he saw that Ji Buwang had brought so many items, he thought that he might be able to go and buy a sheep, but he did not expect Ji Buwang to be one step ahead.

Shao Qihai could only go and look for preserved beef. He asked many people in the village, and in the end, he was lucky enough to find some ham, which was considered a good item.

Shao Qihai heaved a sigh of relief and thought that there was finally something decent he could offer.
