Wife is an enemy general

Chapter 42 Are you still married now?

001.

Li Mu sat on the small bench, holding Yun'er in one hand, and placed him on his lap to let him sit. Now Zhong Xiuyuan also moved over, and there were people sitting on both of his legs.

Yun'er is still young, she is a child after all, and it doesn't take up much space in her arms, but Zhong Xiuyuan is an adult, and he is a man who is about the same size as Li Mu. He joins in the fun, and Li Mu's arms immediately was stuffed to the brim.

Li Mu originally only wanted to make a joke with this person, and didn't really want to hug him. After all, he is such a big person, he can't still be like a child.

In the end, he never expected that this person would actually come up to him cheekily, wagging his tail.

Reflexively, he put his arms around the man's waist to fix him, lest he wrestle all three of them.

At this moment, Zhong Xiuyuan looked at Li Mu, who was close at hand, and got the long-awaited hug again, with satisfaction and joy that could not be concealed in his face and eyes.

He imitated Yun'er and put her arms around Li Mu's neck, and he was very happy like a child. Yun'er who was sitting in Li Mu's arms was very happy to see Zhong Xiuyuan, and also laughed.

All of a sudden, two people, one big and one small, sat in Li Mu's arms, smiling happily as if they had picked up some treasure.

Li Mu's mood, which had been clouded for several days along the way, was emptied a lot by the two people, one big and one young, and there was a rare smile on his face at this moment.

"Okay, stop making trouble, be careful of falling." Li Mu said so, and patted Zhong Xiuyuan's waist with his hand, but Zhong Xiuyuan didn't intend to get up at all, and still hooked Li Mu's neck with one hand , sitting on his lap.

The present opportunity is precious to him, he wished that this time could be extended, how could he let it go so easily?

Yun'er is still young and ignorant, and doesn't understand Zhong Xiuyuan's thoughts, he just sees that Zhong Xiuyuan won't let go, so he also quickly reached out to hug his favorite Li Mu.

Li Mu, who originally only wanted to play around, looked at the two people who were leaning on him, with a little more helplessness in his eyes, but he could only let the two people lean on him, and then looked at the two people with a smile on his face. Like two fools.

Zhong Xiuyuan saw that Li Mu was having a fight because of the two of them, so he took the opportunity of playing around and tightened his arms, quietly bringing the two closer...

Uncle Hong on the side has already experienced a lot of things. Seeing Zhong Xiuyuan making such a fuss at this moment, there is a bit of ambiguity and ridicule in his eyes, but he didn't go to take Yun'er away, but let The three of them continued to argue.

Uncle Hong squatted down and looked at the saplings brought back by Li Mu for a while. Although he didn't understand them very well, he could tell that these saplings were all good things.

Now that the saplings have been brought back, the next step is to plant them. Li Mu had already discussed this matter with them before, so after Li Mu got the things back, the next day, the few people he knew put down their saplings. Things, to help get the saplings into the mountains.

The roots of the trees that Li Mu brought back were all covered with lumps of mud. Although the saplings were only a hundred or so small, they became heavier after adding the mud.

It was still Uncle Hong and Xia Jingming's family who helped put the jujube tree and the peach tree on two hills, and then planted them in the ground.

When it comes to feeding ducks, Li Mu can be regarded as a half old professional, but when it comes to planting things in the ground, Li Mu is really not as good as Xia Jingming and Uncle Hong.Even the land that his family planted by themselves, many of them were planted with the help of Uncle Hong.

Li Mu's side was busy preparing in full swing, and just as everyone started to work, a guest came from the mountain.

The doctor who had been living in the town below the mountain went up the mountain.

Seeing the doctor, Li Mu and Zhong Xiuyuan were a little surprised.

The young doctor walked around the mountain slowly, then ran to the yard of Li Mu's house, moved a small stool and sat down, and then asked Li Mu to close a room. Live in the mountains.

Zhong Xiuyuan and Li Mu looked at each other, both puzzled.

But the doctor said to himself: "From now on, you will study medicine with me." While speaking, his finger pointed to Zhong Xiuyuan.

After listening to the young doctor's words, Li Mu sized him up for a while, and seeing that he was the same as before, with no abnormalities on his face, he turned his gaze to Zhong Xiuyuan.

Zhong Xiuyuan has been learning some medical skills about ducks and livestock from him. Although this thing is rare now and the doctor doesn't know much about it, it can be regarded as learning something from him after all.

He didn't understand why the doctor let Zhong Xiuyuan study medicine with him, but this matter was between Zhong Xiuyuan and him.

Although things in this mountain are complicated and busy, if Zhong Xiuyuan is willing to learn a craft from himself, that is also a good thing.

Zhong Xiuyuan obviously understood this too. After his face changed a few times, he hesitated.

It is a good thing to be able to learn a craft, not to mention medical skills, but if he learns this thing, his life will be busier in the future. Seeing that the tree of Li Mu is about to be planted, it will probably be a duck in a while. It was about to be sold, and he couldn't bear Li Mu to be so busy alone.

Just when Zhong Xiuyuan hesitated, Zhong Manlu stood up from the side, "Brother, you go and learn, with me here, I will help you do more things in the future."

The brother at the front of Zhongman Road is called Zhong Xiuyuan, and the brother at the back is called Li Mu.

Since the first time he opened his mouth, he yelled smoothly afterwards.

Zhongman is 14 years old after passing the New Year, and he is considered an adult in the mountains. During this time, he has been by Li Mu's side, helping to feed the ducks, picking up duck eggs, and doing small things.

After all, Li Mu was actually kind to him.If other people in the village were 14 years old, they had been working in the fields with adults every day.

Zhong Xiuyuan looked at Zhong Manlu, and immediately made a plan to let Zhong Manlu study medicine, but the doctor seemed to have seen his plan and said straightforwardly: "If you want to learn, you learn, if you don't learn, you will fail." , I don’t teach others.”

"Brother, let's go!" Zhong Manlu smiled.

Recently, he has been running all over the mountains and fields with Gong Yinyin and Yun'er, having a great time, and his face is a little childish, but he is a sensible person after all.

He knew that Li Mu was kind to him, and he also knew that his brother Zhong Xiuyuan loved him, but he would be from this mountain in the future, and he had to learn to do some things in the mountain, otherwise, what would he do in the future?

Seeing that Zhong Manlu had said that, Zhong Xiuyuan looked back at the young doctor and nodded.

After getting the answer, the doctor looked at Li Mu.

"My house has no room." Li Mu said calmly.

What he said was not false, it was the truth, but facing his words, the doctor was choked by him.

Looking at Li Mu's indifferent appearance, he instantly remembered the great revenge he had never been avenged before, and the hair on his body exploded. He and this Li Mu couldn't get along!

"I can go down the mountain every day." Zhong Xiuyuan said.

When he used to learn things from this person, he also went down the mountain by himself.

But the doctor glanced at him, and said with a little disgust: "You are too stupid, if you learn like this, you can't finish it in another five or six years."

The young doctor's words were somewhat disgusting, but his eyes were looking at Li Mu, obviously venting his dissatisfaction with Li Mu at Zhong Xiuyuan.

If he couldn't beat Li Mu, he caught Li Mu's people!

After hearing what the young doctor said, Zhong Xiuyuan and Li Mu didn't speak anymore, because they couldn't refute this point.

The young doctor is probably the type of person who is called a genius, but he can't learn anything about medical books and pharmacology without him reading it once.

He still seems to be a very powerful person, and he can't do without any intractable diseases.

When Li Mu went to the pier to buy saplings, he went to the medical clinic there to ask about Yun'er's situation. It's not that he didn't trust the doctor, but because Yun'er's situation was special after all, he wanted to know more about it.

As a result, after asking a lot, there were not many people who could be cured, and only this person looked at it casually and prescribed medicine, saying that it would definitely be cured.

However, his temperament is a bit lazy and casual, and now he is the only medical clinic in the town, but he often closes it, and he never comes to the clinic for any serious illness that cannot get out of bed.

The people in the town are suffering, but because of his superb medical skills and reasonable fees on weekdays, they can only endure it.

Li Mu's house is small, he and Zhong Xiuyuan live in one room, Zhong Manlu lives in one room, and the rest has only one main room.

A few people were in trouble, but Uncle Hong on the opposite side said, "You can stay at my house."

Uncle Hong is now bringing Yun'er here, he and his father are the only ones in his family.Yun'er is still young and her eyes are inconvenient, so she always sleeps with Uncle Hong. The room where his son lives has been vacant for a long time.

After hearing Uncle Hong's words, before Li Mu had time to speak, the doctor had already rushed over to look at the house.

After looking at the house, the next day he came up the mountain sweating profusely with a large basket of books on his back, and then threw all the books to Zhong Xiuyuan and asked him to memorize them all.

Li Mu opened the book and found that it was full of esoteric and difficult medical theories, and he couldn't recognize some words.

Fortunately, Zhong Xiuyuan's patience is full. When he was learning to read military books when he was a teenager, he had read all the more esoteric and difficult things.

The back of the book came up, but when the doctor saw that Li Mu and others were going out to plant trees, he hurriedly followed, saying that he wanted to help.

As a result, when he went up to the mountain, he chose pits all over the mountains and plains. After choosing two attractive pits and planting only two peach trees, he squatted beside the pits and sat still.

This person had a cheerful personality, so Li Mu and the others ignored him and hurriedly got busy with the matter at hand.

When Li Mu planted trees from the bottom of the mountain to where he was, he realized that the previous empty expression appeared on this man's face again, and he was looking at the blue sky and white clouds expressionlessly.

This person went up the mountain suddenly before, and he thought that this person had recovered, but now seeing him staring at the two trees and the blue sky and white clouds in a daze, Li Mu's heart twitched suddenly.

Li Mu opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

When the sun was about to set, Li Mu stopped planting trees. He walked to the side of the doctor and looked at the two trees he had planted. .

The young doctor was so swayed by Li Mu's side that he lost his energy and went into a daze again. He patted his butt, got up, followed Li Mu's example, and filled in the roots of the two trees he had planted. up.

"The two trees I planted will definitely grow better than the ones you planted!" After planting the trees, the doctor wiped his face with his hands full of fences, his face full of beatings.

Li Mu looked up at him, carried the hoe on his shoulder and walked down the mountain, ignoring him.

People are dead, what is the use of him planting two trees?

002.

In the next few days, Li Mu was busy planting and watering trees in the mountains, and the doctor followed him to the mountains every day, and did not do anything when he went there, just sitting there in a daze by his two trees.

He also marked the two trees where he lived with a rope, saying that he was afraid that the two trees would grow up in the future, and Li Mu would renege on the debt, saying that he did not plant the two trees.

He didn't stay on the mountain every day, and occasionally went down the mountain to visit his own medical center, and every time he came back, he got a lot of books and threw them to Zhong Xiuyuan.

When Li Mu finished planting all the trees, it was already October weather.

If the tree is planted like this, there will be nothing to do next. All that remains is to wait for it to grow by itself, and see if it will be pruned next spring.

After finishing his work on planting trees, Li Mu hastened to sell ducks.

It has been about three or four months since he bought the ducks behind him, and most of the ducks have grown up.

When he bought it back, he bought a total of 350 or so. Later, some got sick, some died, and some were caught by wolves. Now there are nearly [-] of them left.

Among the three hundred, Li Mu had already counted them before.

Male ducks generally have big heads, round bodies, and pointed tails. On the contrary, female ducks mostly have small heads, flat bodies, and spread tails. Among the [-] he had, there were about [-] female ducks.

Li Mu, the female duck, is not going to sell it for the time being, and keeping the eggs for laying eggs can bring a lot of money in a day or two, but Li Mu, the male duck, is not going to keep them.

The previous time was because he happened to meet Master Qin, but this time he had to figure out his own way.

Some time ago when he went to the pier, he took the opportunity to inquire. The market is still similar to before. He thought it would not be so easy to find a regular source of customers, but he got in touch with someone in the bulk market. In the past, if the whole sale could not be sold, you can also consider selling it in bulk.

Li Mu was planning, and ran diligently to the duck cage all day long. The doctor was quite interested at first, and ran with Li Mu for several days, but later found that there was nothing interesting, and then sat on the mountain every day.

The doctor stayed on the mountain for a while, Zhong Xiuyuan vaguely sensed something was wrong, asked, and learned from Li Mu what happened.

Knowing the reason of the matter, Zhong Xiuyuan couldn't help being a little curious about the old black that Li Mu was talking about.

To Li Mu, Lao Hei is different from other people. He is also a teacher and a friend. He is special.

Knowing this, knowing such a person, Zhong Xiuyuan couldn't say how jealous he was, after all, he had gone west, but he still cared a little bit.

A person like that doctor, if he didn't know what happened before from Li Mu, he wouldn't think about it at all.

On the mountain, when Zhong Xiuyuan finished reciting the medical book in his hand, he saw the man staring blankly into the distance again, and couldn't help but wonder, "What kind of person is he?"

The young doctor who was in a daze was stunned for a moment, and then looked back at Zhong Xiuyuan.

He was silent for a long time, just when Zhong Xiuyuan thought he would not speak, he spoke, "I don't know."

Probably because Zhong Xiuyuan's words interrupted his daze, his eyes were a little more thoughtful, a little more nostalgic.

What kind of person Zuo Ren is, he really didn't know what to say for a while, anyway, he was different from him.

If I really want to say it, Zuo Ren is probably the kind of person who seems to have a simple and honest personality, but is very assertive and will persevere for it.

In this regard, he is somewhat similar to Li Mu, both of them are the kind of people who can't bring back ten cows once they decide on one thing.

He is also a kind person.

The doctor looked at the sky, Zuo Ren was probably kind, using such words to describe Zuo Ren made him want to laugh, but he couldn't think of a better word.

Both of them were orphans picked up by the master. He was picked up before Zuo Ren, but he was younger than Zuo Ren.

He is more active and loves to play, but Zuo Ren is quieter and calmer.

He has an incomparable talent in medical skills, even his master praised him as a genius.Zuo Ren is an ordinary person, but he has never been troubled by these things. He learns things with great vigor, and after a few years, he has achieved some accomplishments in martial arts.

He lives leisurely, usually looking through medical books, and when he is bored, he goes to tease Zuo Ren, who is practicing kung fu in Mount Fang.Zuo Ren has a calm personality, and he can chat well with him. The relationship between the two has always been good, but they are really like brothers and sisters.

Later, when Yuan Guo and Daning went to war, he didn't like the chaos of war, but Zuo Ren was worried.

Later, the battle was very fierce, and the people of Daning were in dire straits. Their master asked him to go down the mountain to hang a pot to save the world and give medicine.

He is not happy, he hates war, and also hates the despair in the eyes of those refugees.That was ugly and disgusting.

He considers himself not the kind of cold-blooded and ruthless person. If someone asks him for a doctor, he will generally not refuse and will help more. If the patient does not have a lot of money, he is fine with giving a medicine to waive the consultation fee, but if he is asked to take the initiative He went everywhere to give medicine and donate medicine to save people, but he was not happy.

Zuo Ren didn't think so, he believed that what he had learned should be put into practice, that Daning needs them now, even if they were not for the officials of Daning, they should do something for the homeless refugees.

On this matter, they had disagreements for the first time. Although the two had had constant friction in the past, this matter caused the two to part ways shortly after going down the mountain.

This parting ways is a farewell forever.

After that, half a year later, he didn't wait for Zuo Ren to come to him, so he twitched and softened his mind, thinking that if Zuo Ren still went to save others, he would follow, and if he was with Zuo Ren anyway, those things seemed like It's not that annoying...

But it took him several years to find Zuo Ren, who seemed to have disappeared without a trace.

In the beginning, he couldn't find anyone anywhere, and he still felt a little annoyed. He always secretly scolded Zuo Ren for being too stupid. If he had said something nice to him during the quarrel, he would have followed suit. To save people.

He became anxious when he couldn't find anyone in the second year. In such a chaotic world, even if Zuo Ren has a kung fu that he can't match, the world is full of crises...

He no longer had the intention of scolding this person secretly, but only thought that if this person was willing to come out to see him, then he would take the initiative to apologize to him.

In the third year, he started to get scared.

He was so frightened that he couldn't sleep, he couldn't sleep all night, he always dreamed that Zuo Ren was dead, and he went crazy looking for someone.

He got close to those powerful officials, hoping to use their influence to find them.He made all kinds of efforts, he even made a name for himself, thinking that Zuo Ren could find him.

But all his efforts were like a stone falling into the sea, and Zuo Ren still has no news.

He was anxious and afraid, and at the same time, he slowly figured out some things. He probably had some expectations for Zuo Ren that he shouldn't have.

It was just because there were only the two of them on the mountain, and because Zuo Ren always let him take care of him when he was messing around, so he forgot.

He stayed by Zuo Ren's side at ease, thinking that the two of them would live like this forever.

After he figured out what he wanted, he became more and more impatient, and also more and more afraid and uneasy.

He wanted to ask Zuo Ren what he thought of him?Like it or not?Or just treat him as a younger brother, just treat him as the 'senior brother' he wants to come.

He thought about many possibilities after the two met, and he made a list of the things he wanted to do to Zuo Ren, but he never thought that when he heard about Zuo Ren again, it was Li Mu who said, "He is dead." up'.

He couldn't find anyone for a few years, so he naturally knew that there was such a possibility, but he always refused to think about it this way, because Zuo Ren's kung fu is amazing, which is recognized by both he and his master, so the amount is everyone They are all dead, and he can't die either.

It is impossible for Zuo Ren to be kidnapped to join the army. With his skill, ordinary soldiers can't do anything to him even if they join a small team. Therefore, he probably signed up on his own initiative.

He is so kind, he always thinks of doing something and always thinking of helping others.When he just heard the news of Zuo Ren's death, he couldn't stop laughing, because it was really in line with what Zuo Ren would do.

Li Mu said that he didn't let others know his name in the military camp, and he never talked about his own affairs. He could understand it, how could he not?

Under such an environment, all the people around were forced to be dragged in to die, only he himself was willing to jump into the fire pit, what did he say?

He couldn't stop laughing, because he thought Zuo Ren was a fool, a complete fool!

But after laughing, what filled his heart was infinite regret and self-blame...

If he hadn't quarreled with Zuo Ren at the beginning, he was not self-willed, and obediently followed Zuo Ren to Xuanhu Jishi to dispense medicine to save people. With their abilities, they might have made some achievements even though they are poor.

If the two of them join hands, maybe they should be called Shuangxia?Or maybe it's an unrivaled genius doctor or an invincible hero?

He is annoyed, he blames himself, he regrets, but what he hates most is the war itself!

Without this great battle, he and Zuo Ren might still be on the mountain, Zuo Ren is gentle and calm, he is ignorant, just like the original appearance, uncontested with the world.

Without this great battle, he and Zuo Ren might have walked hand in hand, traveling all over the country, through spring, summer, autumn and winter.

If there hadn't been this great battle, he and Zuo Ren might have started their own families and had little contact with each other.

But no matter what, he and Zuo Ren are still alive in the same world, not separated by yin and yang, and there are no dead bodies!

Zhong Xiuyuan stood quietly on the spot, looking at the empty-eyed person in front of him.

This battle has nothing to do with him, maybe that old black died under his spear and under his horse.

But now he has something that he can't let go of. He can no longer say the kind of words that let this person kill him for revenge, because he wants to live, even if he is covered with maggots and tarsus bones, he still wants to live.

He would not say that the people he killed for the things he did were for his brother and his mother, and he was in the whirlpool. He had to die or try to live. At that time, he chose to live.

He would not say that he wanted to continue living because of Li Mu, and such dirty things should not be imposed on Li Mu.

He wanted to live because he was selfish, and he was greedy for Li Mu's tenderness.

If there is really karmic revenge, as long as it does not involve Li Mu, he will not resist, even if thousands of arrows go through his heart and die without a place to bury him, he deserves it.

After standing for a while, Zhong Xiuyuan went back to the room and continued to read the pile of esoteric and difficult medical books in front of him.

Voices could be heard from time to time in the mountain, among which Li Mu's voice could be heard even if it was far away.

After the trees were planted, Li Mu thought about choosing a suitable time to catch the ducks and sell them at the pier, so as to raise another batch of ducklings before winter as soon as possible.

In this way, in winter, another batch can be sold, and they can be raised again in spring.

The people in the mountains, the life in the mountains is nothing more than calculating when the radishes and vegetables will bloom and when they will be planted all day long, and he is just mediocre.

003.

Li Mu has been very busy recently, not only because he is busy catching ducks to sell, but also busy with other things.

Around mid-October, it's time for Yoona's birthday.

Among them, most of them had their birthdays during the period before the year, and only Yun'er was at the end of the year.

After this birthday, Yun'er will be five years old. He is the youngest among them, and also the most distressing one. Naturally, his birthday cannot be ignored.

Usually people in this day and age celebrate their birthday with a bowl of longevity noodles, but this time Li Mu thought about giving him a bigger birthday.

He has this plan, but it's not just because he wants to celebrate Yun'er's birthday.

In the past six months, a lot of things have happened in his family, and he has troubled the people around him many times. The situation in the family is getting better and better, so he thought of taking this opportunity to get together and give Hong Uncle say something.

There will be more and more things in his family in the future. He and Zhong Xiuyuan are obviously too busy. Even if Zhong Manlu is added, he will be very nervous, so he is thinking about telling Uncle Hong not to go to the ground in the future. Yes, follow along with them.

Uncle Hong just cared about Yun'er and himself eating, and usually bought a variety of things in the mountains, just thinking about selling them for some money to buy some rice paste for Yun'er.

To be honest, he actually couldn't make much money this year.

Follow them and help them feed the ducks and get the fodder. Li Mu will be paid according to the wages of the long-term workers. After half a year, it is estimated that he will earn more than he does in a year.

Li Mu didn't feel sorry for Uncle Hong's financial difficulties, but really needed help. Even if Uncle Hong refused to agree to him, he would go down the mountain to hire someone after a while.

Not to mention the three or four hundred ducks he is raising now, three meals a day cannot be managed by him and Zhong Xiuyuan within two hours.

In case one day he had to carry eggs down the mountain to sell them, the two of them would have to rush to work that day, and they might not be finished until dinner time.

Gong Yinyin and Zhong Manlu help a lot in normal times, but they are still young after all, so it is impossible for him to treat them like adults.

What's more, the ducks were sold this time, and he was thinking about raising more...

He raises ducks because he thinks that the ducks will grow up quickly and lay more eggs so that they can be sold for money. If the ducks can't keep up with food and don't grow long enough to lay eggs, isn't it useless?

However, Li Mu talked about the birthday matter in a high-sounding way, with a lot of reasons, but to put it bluntly, it was actually because he was too greedy!

Li Mu usually looks calm and steady in doing things, but he can't control his mouth, and when he has a little money, he thinks about eating delicious food.

No, Yun'er found a good excuse for him.

Everyone was like a bright mirror in their hearts, knowing that he was just greedy, but they didn't stop them, but helped to expand.

It doesn’t cost much to get together in the mountains. The vegetables are all grown by our own family. If you have a little bit, my home has all kinds of food ready-made. The only expenditure is probably to buy some meat and wine.

Li Mu invited people to invite several days in advance, and Li Mu also arranged all the dishes to eat in advance.

On the day of Yun'er's birthday, Chef Li got up early in the morning.

What dishes should be prepared in advance to be marinated to taste, what dishes should be fresh, and what should be processed in advance, he was alone in an apron, and he was in a daze directing Zhong Xiuyuan, Zhong Manlu, and Gong Yinyin around.

Even Yun'er wore a small apron, rolled up her sleeves to reveal her chubby little arms, and turned around with a serious face, taking orders from time to time to help pass something.

After busy tossing and tossing for most of the day, just after sunset in the afternoon, Li Mu went into the kitchen, picked up a spatula, and started to get busy.

When the sun was setting, Zhongman went to find Gong Yinyin, and the two of them carried the table in the main room and walked slowly outside the door, and put the table on a flat place in the yard.

After moving the table, I got some stools out and surrounded the table.

After a cup of tea, when most of the people in the village returned to the village, the individuals that Li Mu had invited all consciously came to the courtyard of Li Mu's house.

Needless to say, Uncle Hong, the three members of Xu Tian's family also came, the young doctor didn't need to be invited at all, and the three of Su Dayong's family, Li Mu, also called.

Seeing that the people were almost here, Zhong Xiuyuan, who was helping in the kitchen, hurriedly helped out the things that Li Mu had prepared. Li Mu made a lot of things this time, and besides the adult's appetizers, he also made them for Yun'er alone Some sweet little cupcakes.

All kinds of dishes are fresh, spicy, hot and cold, filling the entire table.

After everything was arranged, Zhong Xiuyuan went into the house to get the oil lamp and hung it on a tree near the yard.

They were all their own people. After the dishes were brought out, everyone was not polite. They each found a place to sit down and started eating after some pleasantries.

After three glasses of wine, Li Mu told Uncle Hong what he said earlier, and Uncle Hong accepted the wine and drank it.

He had tested Uncle Hong's opinion on this matter a long time ago, and if he hadn't known that Uncle Hong was willing to help, he would not have picked such a moment to speak out.

After the matter was settled, Li Mu was about to raise his glass, but the sister-in-law of the Su family quickly slipped her daughter Su Yuti up, "Since you are too busy, why don't you ask my Yu'er to help you?"

Li Mu was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, he looked at Su Yu, who lowered his head slightly uncomfortably because of his gaze, and blushed.

Su Yu was a little older than Gong Yinyin, a slim girl who could be called someone's age.

Li Mu's family was busy before, and he seldom went to see these three people because of the heavy work. On the one hand, it was because the orphans and widows were afraid of losing their reputation, and on the other hand, it was also because women really couldn't help much. .

For example, when building a duck shed, Xu Tian just helped deliver food and water, or helped weed down. She couldn't just let her carry a big wooden pile with a few men.

"Okay." Li Mu agreed.

In fact, now that he has Uncle Hong, one more Su Yu and one less Su Yu doesn't make much difference, but since she is willing to help, Li Mu will naturally not refuse.

In response to this matter, everyone let go of their arms to eat, and the speed slowed down after they were half full.

At this moment, Li Mu also thought about teasing Yun'er, he put the small cupcakes he had prepared a long time ago, packed them in a snack box and handed them to Yun'er, "This is from Uncle."

"Don't say thank you?" Xu Tian asked with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Yun'er hurriedly said to Li Mu in a childish soft voice: "Thank you, Uncle."

Everyone laughed for a while, and then each took out the little things they had prepared, and placed them in front of Xiaoshouxing, seeing that he couldn't hold them with both hands.

The things they prepare are not valuable things, they are all small snacks, or some fun things.

Since Yun'er grew up, it was the first time she received so many presents on her birthday, her little cheeks were always flushed red, even redder than those of them who had drunk alcohol.

Looking at the happy and joyful Yoon'er, a group of adults only thought it was funny, laughing at a little thing made him so satisfied.

Zhong Manlu also laughed, he was really happy.

Gong Yinyin also laughed, but there was a bit of envy in her eyes.

How could she not be envious?

She was born in Gong's family, just because she was a girl, Zhang Shulan never allowed or even mentioned her birthday for more than ten years, only her mother would secretly cook an egg for her on her birthday.

Compared to her, someone remembered Yun'er's birthday, there was a banquet and snacks and small gifts.

Seeing Yuner who was smiling so happily, she raised her hand and touched Yuner's head, but she was not jealous.

When she was in the Gong family, Zhang Shulan never took her seriously, but now it's different.

Although she is also tired of helping with things every day, Li Mu and Xu Tian regard her as a human being. When Li Mu is rewarded for helping with things, he will never deduct more points from her just because she is a girl. , what she got was always the same as that of Zhong Manlu.

In the past six months, the place in her heart that was originally empty was slowly filled with something, and it became full and warm.

She couldn't tell what it was like, but she probably liked this kind of life, liking Li Mu and Xu Tian.

In the yard, seeing Yun'er failed to hold everything in her arms for a long time, and finally hugged Li Mu's box in her arms with a flushed cheek, everyone couldn't help joking with him.

Ask him which gift he likes the most, ask him his wish, ask who he likes the most, and make a fuss, Xia Jingming at the side suddenly poured a glass of wine for Li Mu and Zhong Xiuyuan, then stood up with the wine, and wanted to give The two toasted.

"I won't talk about the previous generation. When you two got married, I couldn't offer you a proper toast. Now I will make it up." Xia Jingming said.

Xu Tian had been prepared for a long time, when Xia Jingming moved beside her, she also took the wine and stood up, "I don't have much to sell at home, so I'll toast you two, and I hope you two grow old together."

The situation in the village was still the same when Li Mu got married before, and the couple was actually a little afraid of Li Mu at that time.They feel guilty about the older generation's affairs, but they don't know how to make up for it. Now that the two families are getting acquainted, this matter is a hurdle in their hearts.

When this matter was mentioned, Li Mu's memory could not help but be brought back to that time.

He remembered that at that time, his family had neither prepared nor had anything. After he and Zhong Xiuyuan paid a simple visit to the hall, those people cooked a few bowls of wild vegetable and egg flower soup by themselves, took bowls and drank them, and left .

There is no banquet, no wine, and no eight sedan chairs. Even the firecrackers seem to be fired only once.

Later, when he discovered Zhong Xiuyuan's identity at night, he couldn't care less about other things. Now that he thought about it, the two of them seemed to have never had a cup of wine.

Li Mu looked back at Zhong Xiuyuan who was beside him, and Zhong Xiuyuan immediately remembered what happened at that time. He actually remembered the handover of wine, but it had been so long, so he never mentioned it.

Can he and Li Mu meet again in this way?
