Perfect pastoral life

Chapter 107

noon the next day.

After lunch, the shirt girl said goodbye to Chen Mu contentedly, and the four of them drove away from Longdong Village.

Sitting behind the cash register, Chen Mu turned on the computer and directly searched the word "walking foodie" on Baidu, and the page jumped, and there really was such a food show.

I randomly clicked on one of the episodes, took a quick look, and learned that this is a self-produced online program with small and medium traffic, and the number of hits is not very high, around 800 million.But it can be seen that this gourmet show has accumulated a certain number of fans, and each episode can have more than 700 million hits, which shows that the traffic is very stable.

Chen Mu thought that the seventy-eight million streams are enough. When this episode is broadcast, his restaurant should attract many diners.

Speaking of which, after the restaurant opened, Chen Mu's life became more leisurely.On weekdays, there are few guests, and there is nothing to do, most of the time is spent leisurely.

It is normal to have no customers. After all, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and the location is too remote. It is really difficult to attract diners.

But it’s also good, there is no pressure in the leisurely life, busy when there are guests, and hawking, singing, and telling stories to my daughter when there are no guests, there is no more pleasant life than this.

Chen Mu has figured it out, even if he fails to achieve great things in the future, then he will guard the restaurant and live his life leisurely, with nothing to regret.

In the smoky city, those who pursue their so-called dreams, those who are willing to be house slaves, those who live in the cracks, those who are full of smog and do not know it, including those who have reached the pinnacle of life, in Chen In Mu's eyes, there is nothing to envy.

Why should he be envious, the carefree daily pastoral life, this is his destination.

After the four young men left, the store became deserted again, empty and lifeless.

Liang Xiaoyue was washing the used dishes in the kitchen, Chen Xiaoyu was playing with Da Hui, Chen Mu was sitting in front of the computer, browsing the web casually, and quickly turned off the computer. He doesn't like surfing the Internet very much.

At the entrance of the village, at this moment, a young woman and a little boy came towards the restaurant.

Chen Mu recognized them at a glance. That day, the woman's clothing store caught fire, and he rushed into the store to rescue her child. Chen Mu was deeply impressed by the mother and child.

But why are they here? Are they here for dinner?
Just as he was thinking, the young woman took the little boy's hand, and the two had already arrived at the door of the store.

The woman is not very old, and she looks about 27 or [-] years old. Today, she is wearing a light green plaid dress, black hair shawl, and a beautiful and charming face.The last time Chen Mu didn't pay attention to it, this woman's figure was actually very plump, and she was pretty, with a charming and sexy look.

The woman hesitated for a moment outside the shop, then she walked in holding the little boy's hand.

"Well, hello, my name is Shen Shuangshuang, thank you so much for saving my son that day."

The woman walked up to the cash register, she spoke with some reserve, glanced at Chen Mu, and then unconsciously looked away.

Chen Mu thought, did this woman come here specially to thank her, he smiled;

"You really don't have to thank me. In that situation, I couldn't sit idly by whoever's child I was. Besides, I'm also a father with children, so I can fully understand how you feel about them."

"I know, but thank you anyway."

As Shen Shuangshuang said, she glanced at Chen Mu again, with a little shyness in her eyes.

"By the way, my name is Chen Mu. Do you know that I live in Longdong Village?" Chen Mu asked.

Shen Shuangshuang said, "I asked someone to inquire, and a female teacher in the town told me that you live here."

Chen Mu nodded. It seems that Lin Wanwan told her.

He glanced at the little boy next to the woman. This little boy is quite tall, he should be five years old?

However, this little boy seemed very strange. From the time he entered the store to now, he has remained silent, like a withdrawn child.

At this time, Chen Xiaoyu walked into the shop with Da Hui in her arms. When she saw the little boy, she walked closer and said to him;
"Brother, let's play together."

Chen Xiaoyu was quite open, she had no affection for this little boy, and warmly invited him to play with her.

However, facing Chen Xiaoyu's invitation, the little boy did not speak, he was a little timid, and leaned against his mother.

"Brother, why don't you talk, shall we play together?" Chen Xiaoyu asked again.

The little boy still didn't speak, he stared at Chen Xiaoyu, his body was getting closer to his mother, he seemed to be afraid.

Chen Xiaoyu felt that this brother was a bit strange, she thought, why didn't brother talk, or he didn't like to play with her, so that's why he didn't want to talk?

Chen Xiaoyu was thinking, a little sad, she ran to her father with Dahui in her arms.

"Ah, I'm so sorry, brother can't talk." Shen Shuangshuang said to Chen Xiaoyu quickly.

Chen Mu heard it from the sidelines, and was quite surprised. This little boy can't speak?
Suddenly, he remembered the day when he rushed into the sea of ​​flames to rescue the little boy. The temperature in the room was obviously very high, but the little boy didn't cry or make noise. He just shrank himself into the corner of the wall in fear, with a terrified expression on his face.

At that time, Chen Mu was still surprised by this. It turned out that the little boy didn't yell, but he couldn't yell at all. This is a dumb boy.

Judging from the boy's expression and reaction when Chen Xiaoyu asked the little boy just now, Chen Mu should have guessed that he is dumb.

Chen Mu quickly said to Chen Xiaoyu;
"My brother can't talk, Xiaoyu has to take care of this brother, you know."

"Oh, Xiaoyu knows."

Only then did Chen Mu look at Shen Shuangshuang, and asked cautiously;

"May I take the liberty to ask, is the child unable to speak since childhood, or..."

"He has been unable to speak since he was a child." Shen Shuangshuang said, she patted the little boy's head, "Because of the defects in vocal cord closure, he is a very poor child."

"Is there still a chance? Is there any possibility of recovery in the future?"

"The doctor said that the possibility of recovery is not high. There may be a glimmer of hope in surgery, but it is very dangerous."

"That's it."

Chen Mu heard and nodded.He thought, this child is really pitiful.

I remember that when the store was on fire that day, Chen Mu didn't see the woman's husband. Now seeing her alone with the child, he couldn't help but want to know more about the woman's family.

But before she asked, Shen Shuangshuang said in a sad tone;
"My husband died in a car accident two years ago, and I'm the only one taking care of the child."

Chen Mu was taken aback. It turned out that this was a pair of widowed mother and son.It was unfortunate enough that he could not help feeling a little sympathetic to this woman.

"It seems that it's not easy for you." Chen Mu said.

In fact, Chen Mu's words didn't have much meaning, he was just a very common comforting word.But when Shen Shuangshuang heard this, she felt a faint warmth in her heart; she interpreted Chen Mu's words as another meaning, that is, both of them had the same misfortune, which made the woman seem to have found a sense of belonging.

Another one, Chen Mu was also taking care of the child alone, which inevitably made Shen Shuangshuang daydream.She thought in her heart, maybe this handsome man is already divorced, or maybe he is also a widow just like herself?
Shen Shuangshuang was muttering in her heart, she looked at him and asked impatiently;

"Well, are you taking care of the baby alone?"

Chen Mu answered very naturally; "Yes, it's hard work raising a child by yourself, but it's also fun, right?"

When Shen Shuangshuang heard these words, her heart suddenly thumped wildly.She felt that the man in front of her was more and more attractive, what's more, they were still a single-parent family with the same experience, which gave her an urge to get close to him.

As soon as this idea came up, Shen Shuangshuang became a little unnatural when facing Chen Mu.

She began to care about whether the clothes she was wearing today were beautiful or not, whether the makeup on her face was good or not, and even her own behavior and tone of voice began to care.

Even, she felt an inexplicable sense of tension, as if she had returned to her first love in an instant.
