Wife is an enemy general
Chapter 56 Why eat so much?
001.
Hearing the voice of the person below him, and tasting the sweet lips of the person below him, Li Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, showing a bit of enjoyment on his face.
He leaned down and kissed Zhong Xiuyuan's lips, tracing gently, using the tip of his tongue to outline the shape of his lips, sucking the honey/liquid in his mouth, occupying all his thoughts.
The warm breath spread between the two, and then gathered back, enveloping the two of them.
Feeling the warm and ambiguous breath, the two of them didn't want to move for a while, they just kissed each other quietly and lightly, once and for all, without any thinking, they moved instinctively.
Li Mu lowered his head and looked at Zhong Xiuyuan in front of him, and Zhong Xiuyuan did the same. He opened his eyes and looked straight at Li Mu, wishing to draw all of Li Mu's eyebrows and eyes into his soul.
Hiding in the quilt for a while, until Zhong Xiuyuan's lips were flushed with kisses, Li Mu's hoarse voice spread through the quilt again, "You haven't answered my question yet."
Zhong Xiuyuan, who was already flushed by Li Mu's actions just now, stared blankly, this person should not go too far.
"Huh?" Li Mu raised his hand, and gently traced on Zhong Xiuyuan's face with his fingers, once and for all, like tickling, which made Zhong Xiuyuan shiver uncontrollably.
"How are you doing?" Zhong Xiuyuan opened his mouth several times, but he couldn't get out the words.
Although he had confessed his feelings to Li Mu a long time ago, it was not the first time he had said that to Li Mu, but this time, it was the first time after two years of separation.
The love in his heart was already full, but when he asked him to speak, he didn't know what to say for a while, and it happened that Li Mu kept pushing him, which made him even more unsure what to say.
"Don't say it?" Li Mu grabbed Zhong Xiuyuan's hands and imprisoned them on top of Zhong Xiuyuan's head.
Zhong Xiuyuan, who was in the quilt, noticed Li Mu's movements and immediately panicked. He tried to struggle for a while, but when he couldn't struggle away, he resolutely said: "Whoever asked them to bully you, I just won't Hi... I don't want to part with it, so why should I let them bully me?"
The person he likes can't wait to hold it in his mouth and protect him in his palm, for fear that he will freeze from blowing, why should he be bullied by those blind people.
Moreover, although he didn't know exactly what Master Qin said about those things, even if he was not familiar with those people, he could tell that those people who had no brains and no discernment, what was better than that? It's his Li Mu.
If they want good looks or no brains, they are not even one ten-thousandth of Li Mu's!
This time, he just found the beggars and refugees who escaped all the way before, and told them that those people were the people in charge of distributing the relief food, but he just let those people be surrounded by those refugees, which made them look ugly.
They should be glad that the war has ceased now, and they should also be glad that he has given up his previous identity and decided not to use knives and guns anymore, otherwise there would already be a few corpses in front of him at this moment.
Thinking of the embarrassment of those people when they were surrounded by those refugees, Zhong Xiuyuan couldn't help showing a little smile on his face, they deserved it!
Who let them bully Li Mu.
"What are you thinking about?" Li Mu slid his hand down and lifted Zhong Xiuyuan's clothes, "I'm talking to you, but you're thinking about someone else, isn't that a bit bad?"
Li Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, looking dangerously at the person in front of him whose body trembled slightly with the movement of his other hand.
"Don't!" Zhong Xiuyuan murmured.
Li Mu didn't speak again, he had already asked several times, and he didn't bother to speak again.
Zhong Xiuyuan's body trembled more and more. He groaned while hesitating, begging for mercy in a hoarse and low voice, "I was wrong, I know I was wrong, don't be like this..."
Li Mu didn't stop moving, looking at him with both eyes, as if asking him what was wrong.
"You shouldn't be thinking about others at a time like this." Zhong Xiuyuan immediately admitted his mistake obediently, and his attitude was quite sincere.
"So?" Li Mu found two new wounds on Zhong Xiuyuan's body that had never existed before. The two wounds were both on Zhong Xiuyuan's abdomen. They should have been a few months ago, and now they have scabbed over. It is slightly raised and slightly diaphragmatic.
Li Mu's fingers gently moved on his two wounds, stroking the slightly protruding scars back and forth.
The two countries have fought for many years, not only Zhong Xiuyuan, but even himself has many wounds on his body. Although these wounds will heal, they will leave scars.
Li Mu's fingers moved lightly to caress the scar, but Zhong Xiuyuan trembled more and more. The place Li Mu touched happened to be on the waist and abdomen, where there were itchy flesh.
That place was already itchy when touched, but now Li Mu is touching it again. The itchy feeling brought Zhong Xiuyuan not only physically, but also a shock in his heart that was different from other times. It's almost melting.
"I was wrong, I was wrong, don't do this, Li Mu...I didn't think about anyone else, I only thought about you..." Because of the itchy and uncomfortable feeling, Zhong Xiuyuan opened his mouth and couldn't care about anything , Everything was said outside.
Li Mu slowly slowed down his movements, giving Zhong Xiuyuan a chance to recover.
"Li Mu..." Zhong Xiuyuan looked straight at Li Mu in front of him, who made him think about him day and night for a long time.
"Huh?" Li Mu responded.
"I like you." He has said this to this person thousands of times in his heart, he likes this person, he really likes this person!
Zhong Xiuyuan moved his hand instinctively. This time, his hand broke free from Li Mu's grasp easily. He raised his hand again and hugged Li Mu, "I love you."
Those words that were difficult to say in the first place were spit out from his mouth very smoothly at this moment.
Two years, two years, these two years, he has been missing this person all the time, thinking about when he can see him again, when he can be with him day and night as before.
When he was hunted down by those people, he originally thought that he would never have such a chance again, but now everything is over, he came back, he came back alive!
Li Mu hummed a syllable through his nose, lowered his head, and blocked the mouth that spoke what he wanted to hear as he wished.
At the end of this kiss, even Li Mu couldn't help being a little out of breath.
He rolled over from Zhong Xiuyuan's body and hugged him sideways.
"Take a rest for two days, and I'll send you back." Li Mu said softly, "Zhongman Road should have gotten news soon, and he will take care of you after you go back."
Hearing this, Zhong Xiuyuan, who was still a little confused at first, immediately grabbed Li Mu's clothes tightly, "Go back? What about you?"
"I still have to go to a few disaster relief sites nearby to see the situation." Li Mu said.
Although he has already got a general idea of the situation from Master Qin, since he is ready to take over these matters, it is necessary to find out for himself.
"Then I will go with you." Zhong Xiuyuan said.
He came back with great difficulty, and saw this person again with great difficulty, and he was extremely unwilling to let him be separated from this person immediately.
Originally, Li Mu didn't want to tell this person, and planned to have someone send him home directly, because he knew that this person would never agree.
Hearing this man's words now, he stretched out his hand to touch the man's body again. After touching the man's face red, he said softly: "There is no flesh on the body, and it doesn't feel comfortable to touch."
Li Mu's nonsensical sentence, Zhong Xiuyuan was stunned for a long time, and then he came to his senses belatedly, and finally understood what Li Mu meant.
His face flushed instantly, his mouth opened slightly, but he didn't know what to say.I just muttered in my heart, this person is really shameless and impatient sometimes!
"I'm going." Zhong Xiuyuan grabbed Li Mu's clothes tightly.
He knew his body well. Although he was indeed a little tired, he hadn't reached the point where he needed to rest in bed.
If it really reached that level, he would definitely not force himself, so as not to cause trouble for Li Mu instead.
Seeing that Li Mu didn't speak, Zhong Xiuyuan thought for a while and then said: "This matter is not that simple, it's good to have someone by your side to advise you, isn't it?"
Li Mu looked down at Zhong Xiuyuan who was looking at him nervously, and after a while his attitude showed signs of softening, "But the journey will probably be tiring."
"I will take a good rest after I go back!" Zhong Xiuyuan said immediately.
Zhong Xiuyuan insisted on this, Li Mu said a few more words, seeing that this person still did not change his mind, he did not stop him.
The letters of appointment for the four nearby disaster relief sites were all in his hands. After resting for a day, Li Mu bid farewell to Master Qin the next day, rented a carriage, and headed to one of the nearby disaster relief sites.
Anfu also has a disaster relief site. He has been to that disaster relief site before, and probably already understands the situation. This time, the disaster relief site he went to was the larger one on the pier.
The wharf is the largest of the four disaster relief sites he is in charge of, because it extends in all directions, and the number of refugees coming and going is very large.
It was probably because the days before were more difficult, and Zhong Xiuyuan's complexion improved a bit after getting off the carriage bumping all the way.
When he arrived at the pier, his face was a little more bloody, but he was still skinny.
Most of the disaster relief sites are jointly managed by the imperial merchants and the government offices. The official offices cooperate with the imperial merchants to distribute food according to the tasks assigned by the imperial court, while the imperial merchants under Li Mu are responsible for distributing food.
After arriving at the pier, Li Mu asked the location and took Zhong Xiuyuan straight to the government office.
The wharf is considered a big city, with people coming and going, so the government office is also relatively large, managing several nearby villages.
It happened to be evening when Li Mu arrived with Zhong Xiuyuan, the sun was setting in the west, and the fiery red fire cloud lit up half of the sky, dyeing the whole pier a bit red.
After explaining their purpose to the gatekeeper at the gate of the mansion and being led into the mansion, the two soon saw the magistrate in the mansion.
The prefect is a thin middle-aged man with straight eyebrows.Before coming here, Li Mu had inquired about him, but his style was quite respected by the common people, and it was said that he was an upright official.
Knowing Li Mu's identity, when he saw Li Mu, he immediately greeted him with cupped fists, "Master Li, you are here, and I am worried about waiting for you!"
Li Mu hugged him, sat down in the room under his guidance, and then asked him about the situation of the disaster relief point nearby.
Obviously, the magistrate had been waiting for Li Mu's words for a long time. Hearing Li Mu's words, he immediately told the recent events.
He opened his mouth to ask for food, "After the first batch of disaster relief food was distributed, a lot of refugees gathered around here, and the number of people is still increasing day by day, and now the number has reached hundreds to nearly a thousand I don't have much left of the previous batch of disaster food, if Mr. Li doesn't come here, I really don't know what to do."
The imperial court distributed a batch of disaster food before, and now Li Mu is in charge of the second and third batches.
The magistrate was worried because the disaster grain stock was gradually running out, but Li Mu was even more worried than him, but he didn't show it at the moment.
"I came here to solve the food disaster issue, please rest assured, Lord Zhifu," Li Mu said.
Hearing Li Mu's words, the magistrate immediately smiled and heaved a sigh of relief.
After asking about Li Mu's plan, and knowing that Li Mu was planning to stay here for a while, he immediately ordered someone to clean up the backyard of the government office, freeing up two rooms for Li Mu.
002.
It just so happened that it was time for dinner again, after arranging a room for Li Mu and Zhong Xiuyuan each, the magistrate immediately arranged the dinner.
The magistrate is probably really an upright official as rumored, the dinner he arranged was not rich, it seemed like a home-cooked dinner with a few extra dishes.
Li Mu and Zhong Xiuyuan were not picky people either, after sitting down, they talked to the magistrate a few words, and then they each ate.
After eating, Zhong Xiuyuan went back to rest early by himself, while Li Mu stayed to ask the magistrate about the situation of these disaster relief sites.
The disaster relief project this time was an order issued by the former emperor Lin Hong himself, and cotton clothes and food were distributed in all major disaster areas.
However, the current national conditions in Daning are like that, so the things distributed are naturally not much better. There were a lot of coarse grains in the previous batch of disaster relief food, and there were never such things as white rice and noodles.
This distribution of disaster relief food, because the people in charge of each region are different, the things distributed are slightly different.
Some places are more particular, and all they distribute are steamed cornflour steamed buns or bran rice porridge, while some places just distribute some bran rice directly, and let those people go back and figure out their own solutions.
The magistrate is also an upright official who thinks of the people, so he goes to battle himself, cooks the things that are handed out to him, and then distributes them one by one.
After asking about the situation at the nearby disaster relief point at night, Li Mu followed the county magistrate to the disaster relief point in person the next day and the third day, and helped with some things.
It has been nearly a month since the previous batch of disaster relief food was distributed, and within a month, the warehouse has basically been emptied, and it can last for at most ten days.
Seeing that Li Mu had been wandering around with him for two days without mentioning when the food would be brought out, the magistrate couldn't help feeling a little nervous, and urged him twice again, both overtly and secretly.
On the evening of the third day, when the two of them were walking back from the disaster relief point, before they reached the county government office, they saw a government servant running over and told them that someone was looking for Li Mu.
Hearing the news, the magistrate was even more excited than Li Mu, and hurriedly led the people back. He originally thought that someone had brought him relief food, but he didn't expect to find out that it was only a teenager when he arrived at the county government.
"Brother!" The dusty Zhong Manlu threw Ma Jiang, and trotted to Li Mu, looking at Li Mu with some anticipation in his eyes.
"He's inside." Li Mu pointed to the government office.
Without saying a word, Zhong Manlu turned around and ran towards the inside of the government office.
Li Mu and the magistrate explained the situation, when he went in, Zhong Manlu had already seen Zhong Xiuyuan.
"Brother..." Zhong Manlu looked at Zhong Xiuyuan, who was too thin to be human, with red eyes. He seemed to want to hug Zhong Xiuyuan, but he didn't live with Zhong Xiuyuan since he was a child. A little rusty.
Seeing Zhongman Road again, Zhong Xiuyuan's mood was quite complicated.
He waved at Zhong Manlu, and after calling Zhong Manlu over, he raised his hand and patted Zhong Manlu's shoulder, "I'm back."
Zhong Manlu couldn't hold back his tears, he was still too young after all, and his thoughts were still simple and innocent, "I thought I would never see you again, they all said they couldn't find you, they all said you were dead It's..."
Li Mu stood quietly outside the door without going in, giving the two brothers enough time and space to enjoy the joy of their reunion.
He knew all the tortuous stories between the two brothers, but knowing it was completely different from experiencing it personally. Now that he was completely alone in this world, he probably couldn't experience this feeling anymore.
After standing at the door for a while, Li Mufu went to the former magistrate and asked him to help send someone to deliver the letter for him.
After finishing all this work, when Li Mu came out of the study with the magistrate, the sky had already darkened, and dinner was already being called at the government office.
"These places are not far from our place, and the letter should be delivered within a few days." The magistrate hesitated, "But at this time, Master Li..."
Li Mu asked him to send people to invite people nearby, and there were a lot of people invited. Basically, the rich and powerful people in the nearby villages and towns of Qingmu, Dock, and Anfu were all on the list.
The name of the invitation was a banquet, the specific name was not mentioned, but he was invited as Li Mu, the person in charge of disaster relief food.
It has been four or five days since Li Mu found him here. In the four or five days, Li Mu didn't mention the disaster relief food at all, and just followed him around the disaster relief sites every day.
Although Li Mu's affairs should not be his responsibility, he still felt a little strange.And vaguely, he was also a little afraid that Li Mu was the kind of profiteer who swallowed up the relief food and supplies and refused to give it.
Now that he saw that Li Mu didn't bring out the food and grass, but was going to have a banquet, his bad feeling suddenly became stronger.
"Don't be in a hurry, magistrate, we'll know when the time comes." Li Mu didn't explain the specific situation, and put it off.
The prefect was a little hesitant when he heard the words, but he didn't say anything.
He is still relying on Li Mu to get things out, and he can't afford to offend those refugees.
After discussing the disaster relief, the two went to the main room to prepare for dinner.
After entering the house, Li Mu found that only Zhong Xiuyuan was waiting in the house, and Zhong Manlu was nowhere to be seen.
"His eyes are red from crying, and he doesn't want to come out." Zhong Xiuyuan saw Li Mu's doubts at a glance.
Speaking of the matter on Zhongman Road, Zhong Xiuyuan had a bit of helplessness and elder tenderness in his eyes.
The blood relationship is a very magical thing. Even though he and Zhong Manlu did not grow up together, and spent very little time together, it did not prevent him from treating Zhong Manlu as his younger brother. children look at.
Hearing Zhong Xiuyuan's words, Li Mu couldn't help showing a bit of the gentleness of an elder on his face. This Zhong Manlu seemed to be quite a sensible person on weekdays, but he didn't expect to be so childish sometimes.
"Let's eat first, I'll bring him some food later." Zhong Xiuyuan said, thinking about how Zhong Manlu was crying in front of him in the afternoon, Zhong Xiuyuan became happier.
It's been two years since Zhong Manlu has grown into a half-adult. He will be able to say goodbye to his age in two years. If he works harder, in another three years, maybe he will be able to have a nephew and niece to hug him. up.
After being seated, several people ate dinner silently.
After the meal, Li Mu led Zhong Xiuyuan, and the two of them walked slowly one by one, and walked towards the small courtyard where they lived.
Not long after he walked out, Li Mu realized that something was wrong with the people next to him.
Zhong Xiuyuan covered his mouth and occasionally made a little noise, his appearance was extremely strange.
"What's the matter?" Li Mu tilted his head and looked at the person next to him who suddenly moved, and then suddenly moved after a while, with a slight puzzlement in his black and white eyes.
Under the night, Zhong Xiuyuan covered his mouth, as if he wanted to say something to Li Mu, when he was about to speak, he twitched again.
Seeing him like this, Li Mu came back to his senses, this person is hiccupping?
Li Mu was about to ask for proof, when he saw the person next to him move again, and let out a "cluck" sound from his covered mouth.
He wanted to cover his mouth so he wouldn't hiccup, but he couldn't do anything about himself. When he saw Li Mu, he wanted to laugh for a moment.
"How did this happen?" Li Mu stretched out his hand, pulled Zhong Xiuyuan's hand away from his mouth, and secretly searched for the little tricks he knew in his mind to prevent hiccups.
In the end, he pulled Zhong Xiuyuan's hand away from his mouth, and he heard Zhong Xiuyuan hiccup, this time it was not the same as before, but a full hiccup.
Hearing that voice, Zhong Xiuyuan's ears turned red immediately, and he quickly raised his hand to cover his mouth.
Li Mu was really made to laugh by this one, this person...
"Don't laugh." Zhong Xiuyuan covered his mouth and moaned.
Li Muyi said no expression on his face, but his eyes were full of smiles.
Zhong Xiuyuan hiccupped again, quite annoyed.
"Why eat so much? Like it?" Li Mu was puzzled.
The food at the magistrate's house is very ordinary, not delicious, but ordinary home-cooked food.
He didn't know that Zhong Xiuyuan actually liked these tastes, and he could eat himself until he hiccupped.
Zhong Xiuyuan covered his mouth, turned his head and muttered something, but Li Mu couldn't hear clearly, "What?"
Zhong Xiuyuan didn't say anything more, he just quickened his pace and walked towards the small courtyard.
After entering the courtyard, seeing that Li Mu hadn't followed, he stretched out his hand and touched his stomach with some resentment. Although he was wearing two thick clothes, because he was indeed too thin, he still felt uncomfortable even now. Some diaphragms.
Ever since Li Mu said that that day, he has been intentionally eating more, thinking that the flesh on his body can grow back, and no matter what happens, he can't let this person say that he touched his diaphragm...
But after these days, he was full every day, and his stomach was round and round, but the flesh on his body was still not moving.
After hiccupping again, Zhong Xiuyuan walked to his room while stroking his stomach resentfully.
Li Mu, who was walking a few steps behind Zhong Xiu, saw this man walking forward annoyedly while touching and pinching his stomach, and he reacted after a while.
Li Mu shook his head, feeling amused.
After he delivered the dinner he brought back to Zhong Manlu to his room, he went back to his room.
When Li Mu entered the room, Zhong Xiuyuan stopped touching his stomach. He drank several large bowls of water on the table, trying to stop hiccupping, but the effect was not obvious.
On the contrary, after drinking these few glasses of water, his stomach is now fuller.
After entering the room, Li Mu softened his heart when he saw the frowning person who thumped from time to time, and beckoned the person to come over, "Come here."
003.
Zhong Xiuyuan hiccupped again, then walked towards Li Mu and sat down beside Li Mu.
Li Mu turned his body sideways, stretched out his hand, and under Zhong Xiuyuan's gaze, he put his hand on his stomach, and then touched it lightly.
"Aren't you stupid, what are you eating so much for?" Zhong Xiuyuan's stomach was stuffed to the brim, round and hard to the touch.
Zhong Xiuyuan didn't speak, and he also felt that he was a bit stupid at the moment, but it was obviously Li Mu who thought he was too thin to touch...
Since that day at the inn, he and Li Mu slept separately during this period of time, and Li Mu was busy with disaster relief work on weekdays, so Li Mu hadn't hugged him for a long time.
Zhong Xiuyuan felt that he shouldn't care about these things, but after touching his stomach, he still cared about it.
Seeing Li Mu rubbing his stomach now, Zhong Xiuyuan leaned back and changed to a comfortable position, wagging his tail and lying on his back, which made it easier for Li Mu to rub his stomach.
Li Mu's hand slid down the top of Zhong Xiuyuan's stomach lightly and lightly, again and again, probably to make the person under his hand feel comfortable. When he looked up, Zhong Xiuyuan was already lying comfortably. He closed his eyes under the blanket.
Li Mu patted the man's stomach, and after stroking him well, he went up and touched the man's face.
Zhong Xiuyuan, who seemed to be asleep with his eyes closed, turned his head instinctively, and rubbed his face in Li Mu's hands.
Li Mu withdrew his hand, and put his hand on Zhong Xiuyuan's face to cover the man's eyes. Although the man under him didn't move, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and the eyelashes brushed his palm, causing a burst of itching.
"If you can't eat, don't eat so much." The body is already weak, if it is sustained like this, what if something goes wrong?
The eyelashes under Li Mu's palm trembled again. Zhong Xiuyuan should also know that he is a little stupid now. He didn't speak, but closed his eyes, just to pretend to be asleep.
After a while, Li Mu took his palm away, and there was no sound in the room anymore.
Zhong Xiuyuan closed his eyes and waited for a while. He pricked up his ears and listened quietly, trying to figure out what Li Mu was doing, but he didn't hear any sound after listening for a long time.
After a while and still not hearing any sound, Zhong Xiuyuan secretly opened half of one eye, but as soon as the eye opened, it met Li Mu's approaching face.
Startled, he opened his eyes.
At some point, Li Mu lay down on his side, leaning against him.As soon as he opened his eyes, he immediately met Li Mu's eyes.
"Stop pretending to be asleep?" Li Mu asked.
Being exposed, Zhong Xiuyuan immediately struggled to sit up, but the pain involved his stomach, and he groaned silently and lay down again.
After lying down, Zhong Xiuyuan stretched out his hands and touched his stomach involuntarily. His stomach was already bulging, but suddenly this force made him feel a little pain.
Li Mu saw this scene completely in his eyes, and after seeing this person bared his teeth in pain, he said: "Even if I lost some weight, I don't dislike it."
Zhong Xiuyuan, who was baring his teeth and stroking his belly, paused with his hands.
He didn't look at Li Mu, but continued to touch his stomach, as if he didn't hear Li Mu's words just now.He should have been happy because of Li Mu's words, but at this moment he couldn't be happy.
Since he met Li Mu again, Li Mu never once asked him about the wound on his face, nor did he say anything to Li Mu.
He is a man, and Li Mu is also a man. He shouldn't pay too much attention to these things, but the things on his face, even people who don't care much about them, now have a scar on their face, so they have to pay more attention to it. .
What's more, his scar, which slid from his left forehead to his right cheek, was rather ferocious.
This injury was probably only a few months ago. Although the scab has scabbed over now, it is no longer serious, but the wound that just healed is still red, and it looks more terrifying than those old wounds.
If he had been his general in the military camp and had such a wound on his face, he would still be happy about it, because this wound erased the beauty that shouldn't be on his face, and instead made his face more beautiful. He was a little more hostile and a little more terrifying, this is what a general should look like.
But now he is no longer a general, just an ordinary person, and an ordinary person has such a scary scar on his face...
The thinness of his body can be nourished by eating some food, but even if his master Zuo Yi is alive, there is no way to completely remove the matter on his face, and it will leave a mark after all.
Li Mu didn't speak, and lay quietly next to Zhong Xiuyuan, and never noticed the changing expressions of the people beside him.
When the street outside the house gradually became quiet, and when the night gradually deepened, Zhong Xiuyuan beside him moved.
He turned around, took Li Mu's hand silently, put his hand on his face, and asked him to cover his eyes like before.
After lying quietly like this for a while, Zhong Xiuyuan wriggled up from under Li Mu's hands as if dissatisfied, moved on his knees on the bed, and landed on Li Mu's body.
Holding Li Mu tightly in his arms, Zhong Xiuyuan put his face on Li Mu's chest, quietly listening to Li Mu's strong heartbeat, and then hiccupped untimely.
The prone position pressed against his stomach, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
Zhong Xiuyuan reached out and rubbed his stomach, thought for a while, then took Li Mu's hand, and put Li Mu's hand on his stomach, wagging his tail as if begging for a touch.
Li Mu lay quietly on the bed with his eyes closed, motionless, letting the people around him do this for a while, for a while, for a while, for a while, for a while, to pull his hand, and for a while, to throw himself on him and rub against him.
It was late at night, and Li Mu was a little sleepy, but Zhong Xiuyuan was probably full because he ate too much, so he was in good spirits and clingy.
As the night gradually deepened, sleepiness gradually struck. Zhong Xiuyuan, who had been making a fuss for most of the night, finally fell asleep slowly with hiccups.
In the early morning of the next day, the magistrate sent a lot of people to invite those people to come over as Li Mu said.
As soon as there is movement here, the matter will spread around.
A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and the time soon reached the time set by Li Mu.
It was probably because many people were thinking about the matter of the Imperial Merchant, so this time almost all the people Li Mu invited were here, and the first one to come was definitely Mr. Qin.
After he came, Li Mu talked to him in this way, then asked him for help, found a relatively large and quiet place near the pier, and booked a banquet.
The banquet was scheduled for the evening, Master Qin helped Zhang Luo, and after Li Mu changed into clothes that looked good, he was ready to set off and walk towards the place where the banquet was scheduled.
As soon as Li Mu went out, he saw a man wearing a guard uniform standing outside the door. The man was standing with his back to Li Mu. Li Mu looked familiar, but he didn't know any guards in this mansion, so he turned around. Go to the other end.
He had only taken two steps, but Zhong Xiuyuan's voice came from behind him, and Li Mu looked back.
Turning around, he realized that the person who was standing outside the door wearing a guard's uniform was actually Zhong Xiuyuan. He didn't know when Zhong Xiuyuan changed into a guard's clothes.
The dark clothes made him look a little thinner, but he also revealed a bit of a capable atmosphere. In addition, he was originally a soldier in the army, so he was full of aura, which made him a bit scary.
While Li Mu was staring at Zhong Xiuyuan, Zhong Xiuyuan was also looking at Li Mu who had changed into a new suit in front of him.
Li Mujian's eyebrows are starry, and he has such a meticulous and unchanging face, he looks a bit like a rich man.
Zhong Xiuyuan looked up and down, and nodded in satisfaction. Master Qin's vision is really good.
"Why are you dressed like this?" Li Mu asked.
"Of course I went with you." Zhong Xiuyuan took out a long knife out of nowhere and hung it on his waist, looking decent.
Li Mu opened his mouth and was about to say something, but Zhong Xiuyuan raised his hand to stop him, "I know what you want to say, but this time I must go." Divided hostility.
Zhong Xiu couldn't let go of what happened in Anfu before. Those few people dared to stop Li Mu on Anfu Street. Now if Li Mu is allowed to meet these people alone, who knows what they will do? Won't you embarrass Li Mu again?
Even now those people would not dare to do anything to Li Mu, but he still didn't want Li Mu to suffer this kind of grievance.
According to his current personality that likes to be quiet, if this business is not good for Li Mu, it's fine if Li Mu doesn't do it. At worst, they go back to raise ducks.But he also probably knew that Li Mu still wanted to do this business, so he put on a black coat, stood behind him, and stayed with him.
"Don't worry, I will only follow behind you." Zhong Xiuyuan promised again.
Zhong Xiuyuan obviously made up his mind, Li Mu didn't stop him any more, turned around and walked towards the banquet location.
The banquet was held in the courtyard behind a large restaurant near the pier. The courtyard was quite large, specially prepared for this situation, and could accommodate many people.
After nightfall, lanterns were lit in the yard.The flickering flames stirred up the lake in the yard, causing bursts of water to shine.
When Li Mu arrived, almost all the people he had invited to the banquet had already arrived. Seeing Li Mu coming, everyone stopped talking and turned their heads to look this way, looking curiously and contemptuously.
Li Mu walked in front, wearing a green shirt, quite heroic.His brows are clear and his nose is straight, his black eyes are as black as night and bottomless.
His lightly pursed lips formed a cold arc. After entering the courtyard, he could only look and say nothing, but frightened everyone out of thin air.
Behind him was a man with deep browbones, a wounded face, and cold eyes with a hint of warning.
The man's body wrapped in pitch-black clothes was a little thin, but his fierce aura was arrogant, making Li Mu three points intimidating in front of him.
They had all inquired about Li Mu who took down the person in charge of Huangshangtangkou before, and they knew more or less about Li Mu, so many people came here this time with a bit of contempt.
But at this moment, seeing Li Mu like this, and the guard behind him looking so imposing, the group of people were a little confused for a moment. Could it be that Li Mu is so different from the rumors?
Hearing the voice of the person below him, and tasting the sweet lips of the person below him, Li Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, showing a bit of enjoyment on his face.
He leaned down and kissed Zhong Xiuyuan's lips, tracing gently, using the tip of his tongue to outline the shape of his lips, sucking the honey/liquid in his mouth, occupying all his thoughts.
The warm breath spread between the two, and then gathered back, enveloping the two of them.
Feeling the warm and ambiguous breath, the two of them didn't want to move for a while, they just kissed each other quietly and lightly, once and for all, without any thinking, they moved instinctively.
Li Mu lowered his head and looked at Zhong Xiuyuan in front of him, and Zhong Xiuyuan did the same. He opened his eyes and looked straight at Li Mu, wishing to draw all of Li Mu's eyebrows and eyes into his soul.
Hiding in the quilt for a while, until Zhong Xiuyuan's lips were flushed with kisses, Li Mu's hoarse voice spread through the quilt again, "You haven't answered my question yet."
Zhong Xiuyuan, who was already flushed by Li Mu's actions just now, stared blankly, this person should not go too far.
"Huh?" Li Mu raised his hand, and gently traced on Zhong Xiuyuan's face with his fingers, once and for all, like tickling, which made Zhong Xiuyuan shiver uncontrollably.
"How are you doing?" Zhong Xiuyuan opened his mouth several times, but he couldn't get out the words.
Although he had confessed his feelings to Li Mu a long time ago, it was not the first time he had said that to Li Mu, but this time, it was the first time after two years of separation.
The love in his heart was already full, but when he asked him to speak, he didn't know what to say for a while, and it happened that Li Mu kept pushing him, which made him even more unsure what to say.
"Don't say it?" Li Mu grabbed Zhong Xiuyuan's hands and imprisoned them on top of Zhong Xiuyuan's head.
Zhong Xiuyuan, who was in the quilt, noticed Li Mu's movements and immediately panicked. He tried to struggle for a while, but when he couldn't struggle away, he resolutely said: "Whoever asked them to bully you, I just won't Hi... I don't want to part with it, so why should I let them bully me?"
The person he likes can't wait to hold it in his mouth and protect him in his palm, for fear that he will freeze from blowing, why should he be bullied by those blind people.
Moreover, although he didn't know exactly what Master Qin said about those things, even if he was not familiar with those people, he could tell that those people who had no brains and no discernment, what was better than that? It's his Li Mu.
If they want good looks or no brains, they are not even one ten-thousandth of Li Mu's!
This time, he just found the beggars and refugees who escaped all the way before, and told them that those people were the people in charge of distributing the relief food, but he just let those people be surrounded by those refugees, which made them look ugly.
They should be glad that the war has ceased now, and they should also be glad that he has given up his previous identity and decided not to use knives and guns anymore, otherwise there would already be a few corpses in front of him at this moment.
Thinking of the embarrassment of those people when they were surrounded by those refugees, Zhong Xiuyuan couldn't help showing a little smile on his face, they deserved it!
Who let them bully Li Mu.
"What are you thinking about?" Li Mu slid his hand down and lifted Zhong Xiuyuan's clothes, "I'm talking to you, but you're thinking about someone else, isn't that a bit bad?"
Li Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, looking dangerously at the person in front of him whose body trembled slightly with the movement of his other hand.
"Don't!" Zhong Xiuyuan murmured.
Li Mu didn't speak again, he had already asked several times, and he didn't bother to speak again.
Zhong Xiuyuan's body trembled more and more. He groaned while hesitating, begging for mercy in a hoarse and low voice, "I was wrong, I know I was wrong, don't be like this..."
Li Mu didn't stop moving, looking at him with both eyes, as if asking him what was wrong.
"You shouldn't be thinking about others at a time like this." Zhong Xiuyuan immediately admitted his mistake obediently, and his attitude was quite sincere.
"So?" Li Mu found two new wounds on Zhong Xiuyuan's body that had never existed before. The two wounds were both on Zhong Xiuyuan's abdomen. They should have been a few months ago, and now they have scabbed over. It is slightly raised and slightly diaphragmatic.
Li Mu's fingers gently moved on his two wounds, stroking the slightly protruding scars back and forth.
The two countries have fought for many years, not only Zhong Xiuyuan, but even himself has many wounds on his body. Although these wounds will heal, they will leave scars.
Li Mu's fingers moved lightly to caress the scar, but Zhong Xiuyuan trembled more and more. The place Li Mu touched happened to be on the waist and abdomen, where there were itchy flesh.
That place was already itchy when touched, but now Li Mu is touching it again. The itchy feeling brought Zhong Xiuyuan not only physically, but also a shock in his heart that was different from other times. It's almost melting.
"I was wrong, I was wrong, don't do this, Li Mu...I didn't think about anyone else, I only thought about you..." Because of the itchy and uncomfortable feeling, Zhong Xiuyuan opened his mouth and couldn't care about anything , Everything was said outside.
Li Mu slowly slowed down his movements, giving Zhong Xiuyuan a chance to recover.
"Li Mu..." Zhong Xiuyuan looked straight at Li Mu in front of him, who made him think about him day and night for a long time.
"Huh?" Li Mu responded.
"I like you." He has said this to this person thousands of times in his heart, he likes this person, he really likes this person!
Zhong Xiuyuan moved his hand instinctively. This time, his hand broke free from Li Mu's grasp easily. He raised his hand again and hugged Li Mu, "I love you."
Those words that were difficult to say in the first place were spit out from his mouth very smoothly at this moment.
Two years, two years, these two years, he has been missing this person all the time, thinking about when he can see him again, when he can be with him day and night as before.
When he was hunted down by those people, he originally thought that he would never have such a chance again, but now everything is over, he came back, he came back alive!
Li Mu hummed a syllable through his nose, lowered his head, and blocked the mouth that spoke what he wanted to hear as he wished.
At the end of this kiss, even Li Mu couldn't help being a little out of breath.
He rolled over from Zhong Xiuyuan's body and hugged him sideways.
"Take a rest for two days, and I'll send you back." Li Mu said softly, "Zhongman Road should have gotten news soon, and he will take care of you after you go back."
Hearing this, Zhong Xiuyuan, who was still a little confused at first, immediately grabbed Li Mu's clothes tightly, "Go back? What about you?"
"I still have to go to a few disaster relief sites nearby to see the situation." Li Mu said.
Although he has already got a general idea of the situation from Master Qin, since he is ready to take over these matters, it is necessary to find out for himself.
"Then I will go with you." Zhong Xiuyuan said.
He came back with great difficulty, and saw this person again with great difficulty, and he was extremely unwilling to let him be separated from this person immediately.
Originally, Li Mu didn't want to tell this person, and planned to have someone send him home directly, because he knew that this person would never agree.
Hearing this man's words now, he stretched out his hand to touch the man's body again. After touching the man's face red, he said softly: "There is no flesh on the body, and it doesn't feel comfortable to touch."
Li Mu's nonsensical sentence, Zhong Xiuyuan was stunned for a long time, and then he came to his senses belatedly, and finally understood what Li Mu meant.
His face flushed instantly, his mouth opened slightly, but he didn't know what to say.I just muttered in my heart, this person is really shameless and impatient sometimes!
"I'm going." Zhong Xiuyuan grabbed Li Mu's clothes tightly.
He knew his body well. Although he was indeed a little tired, he hadn't reached the point where he needed to rest in bed.
If it really reached that level, he would definitely not force himself, so as not to cause trouble for Li Mu instead.
Seeing that Li Mu didn't speak, Zhong Xiuyuan thought for a while and then said: "This matter is not that simple, it's good to have someone by your side to advise you, isn't it?"
Li Mu looked down at Zhong Xiuyuan who was looking at him nervously, and after a while his attitude showed signs of softening, "But the journey will probably be tiring."
"I will take a good rest after I go back!" Zhong Xiuyuan said immediately.
Zhong Xiuyuan insisted on this, Li Mu said a few more words, seeing that this person still did not change his mind, he did not stop him.
The letters of appointment for the four nearby disaster relief sites were all in his hands. After resting for a day, Li Mu bid farewell to Master Qin the next day, rented a carriage, and headed to one of the nearby disaster relief sites.
Anfu also has a disaster relief site. He has been to that disaster relief site before, and probably already understands the situation. This time, the disaster relief site he went to was the larger one on the pier.
The wharf is the largest of the four disaster relief sites he is in charge of, because it extends in all directions, and the number of refugees coming and going is very large.
It was probably because the days before were more difficult, and Zhong Xiuyuan's complexion improved a bit after getting off the carriage bumping all the way.
When he arrived at the pier, his face was a little more bloody, but he was still skinny.
Most of the disaster relief sites are jointly managed by the imperial merchants and the government offices. The official offices cooperate with the imperial merchants to distribute food according to the tasks assigned by the imperial court, while the imperial merchants under Li Mu are responsible for distributing food.
After arriving at the pier, Li Mu asked the location and took Zhong Xiuyuan straight to the government office.
The wharf is considered a big city, with people coming and going, so the government office is also relatively large, managing several nearby villages.
It happened to be evening when Li Mu arrived with Zhong Xiuyuan, the sun was setting in the west, and the fiery red fire cloud lit up half of the sky, dyeing the whole pier a bit red.
After explaining their purpose to the gatekeeper at the gate of the mansion and being led into the mansion, the two soon saw the magistrate in the mansion.
The prefect is a thin middle-aged man with straight eyebrows.Before coming here, Li Mu had inquired about him, but his style was quite respected by the common people, and it was said that he was an upright official.
Knowing Li Mu's identity, when he saw Li Mu, he immediately greeted him with cupped fists, "Master Li, you are here, and I am worried about waiting for you!"
Li Mu hugged him, sat down in the room under his guidance, and then asked him about the situation of the disaster relief point nearby.
Obviously, the magistrate had been waiting for Li Mu's words for a long time. Hearing Li Mu's words, he immediately told the recent events.
He opened his mouth to ask for food, "After the first batch of disaster relief food was distributed, a lot of refugees gathered around here, and the number of people is still increasing day by day, and now the number has reached hundreds to nearly a thousand I don't have much left of the previous batch of disaster food, if Mr. Li doesn't come here, I really don't know what to do."
The imperial court distributed a batch of disaster food before, and now Li Mu is in charge of the second and third batches.
The magistrate was worried because the disaster grain stock was gradually running out, but Li Mu was even more worried than him, but he didn't show it at the moment.
"I came here to solve the food disaster issue, please rest assured, Lord Zhifu," Li Mu said.
Hearing Li Mu's words, the magistrate immediately smiled and heaved a sigh of relief.
After asking about Li Mu's plan, and knowing that Li Mu was planning to stay here for a while, he immediately ordered someone to clean up the backyard of the government office, freeing up two rooms for Li Mu.
002.
It just so happened that it was time for dinner again, after arranging a room for Li Mu and Zhong Xiuyuan each, the magistrate immediately arranged the dinner.
The magistrate is probably really an upright official as rumored, the dinner he arranged was not rich, it seemed like a home-cooked dinner with a few extra dishes.
Li Mu and Zhong Xiuyuan were not picky people either, after sitting down, they talked to the magistrate a few words, and then they each ate.
After eating, Zhong Xiuyuan went back to rest early by himself, while Li Mu stayed to ask the magistrate about the situation of these disaster relief sites.
The disaster relief project this time was an order issued by the former emperor Lin Hong himself, and cotton clothes and food were distributed in all major disaster areas.
However, the current national conditions in Daning are like that, so the things distributed are naturally not much better. There were a lot of coarse grains in the previous batch of disaster relief food, and there were never such things as white rice and noodles.
This distribution of disaster relief food, because the people in charge of each region are different, the things distributed are slightly different.
Some places are more particular, and all they distribute are steamed cornflour steamed buns or bran rice porridge, while some places just distribute some bran rice directly, and let those people go back and figure out their own solutions.
The magistrate is also an upright official who thinks of the people, so he goes to battle himself, cooks the things that are handed out to him, and then distributes them one by one.
After asking about the situation at the nearby disaster relief point at night, Li Mu followed the county magistrate to the disaster relief point in person the next day and the third day, and helped with some things.
It has been nearly a month since the previous batch of disaster relief food was distributed, and within a month, the warehouse has basically been emptied, and it can last for at most ten days.
Seeing that Li Mu had been wandering around with him for two days without mentioning when the food would be brought out, the magistrate couldn't help feeling a little nervous, and urged him twice again, both overtly and secretly.
On the evening of the third day, when the two of them were walking back from the disaster relief point, before they reached the county government office, they saw a government servant running over and told them that someone was looking for Li Mu.
Hearing the news, the magistrate was even more excited than Li Mu, and hurriedly led the people back. He originally thought that someone had brought him relief food, but he didn't expect to find out that it was only a teenager when he arrived at the county government.
"Brother!" The dusty Zhong Manlu threw Ma Jiang, and trotted to Li Mu, looking at Li Mu with some anticipation in his eyes.
"He's inside." Li Mu pointed to the government office.
Without saying a word, Zhong Manlu turned around and ran towards the inside of the government office.
Li Mu and the magistrate explained the situation, when he went in, Zhong Manlu had already seen Zhong Xiuyuan.
"Brother..." Zhong Manlu looked at Zhong Xiuyuan, who was too thin to be human, with red eyes. He seemed to want to hug Zhong Xiuyuan, but he didn't live with Zhong Xiuyuan since he was a child. A little rusty.
Seeing Zhongman Road again, Zhong Xiuyuan's mood was quite complicated.
He waved at Zhong Manlu, and after calling Zhong Manlu over, he raised his hand and patted Zhong Manlu's shoulder, "I'm back."
Zhong Manlu couldn't hold back his tears, he was still too young after all, and his thoughts were still simple and innocent, "I thought I would never see you again, they all said they couldn't find you, they all said you were dead It's..."
Li Mu stood quietly outside the door without going in, giving the two brothers enough time and space to enjoy the joy of their reunion.
He knew all the tortuous stories between the two brothers, but knowing it was completely different from experiencing it personally. Now that he was completely alone in this world, he probably couldn't experience this feeling anymore.
After standing at the door for a while, Li Mufu went to the former magistrate and asked him to help send someone to deliver the letter for him.
After finishing all this work, when Li Mu came out of the study with the magistrate, the sky had already darkened, and dinner was already being called at the government office.
"These places are not far from our place, and the letter should be delivered within a few days." The magistrate hesitated, "But at this time, Master Li..."
Li Mu asked him to send people to invite people nearby, and there were a lot of people invited. Basically, the rich and powerful people in the nearby villages and towns of Qingmu, Dock, and Anfu were all on the list.
The name of the invitation was a banquet, the specific name was not mentioned, but he was invited as Li Mu, the person in charge of disaster relief food.
It has been four or five days since Li Mu found him here. In the four or five days, Li Mu didn't mention the disaster relief food at all, and just followed him around the disaster relief sites every day.
Although Li Mu's affairs should not be his responsibility, he still felt a little strange.And vaguely, he was also a little afraid that Li Mu was the kind of profiteer who swallowed up the relief food and supplies and refused to give it.
Now that he saw that Li Mu didn't bring out the food and grass, but was going to have a banquet, his bad feeling suddenly became stronger.
"Don't be in a hurry, magistrate, we'll know when the time comes." Li Mu didn't explain the specific situation, and put it off.
The prefect was a little hesitant when he heard the words, but he didn't say anything.
He is still relying on Li Mu to get things out, and he can't afford to offend those refugees.
After discussing the disaster relief, the two went to the main room to prepare for dinner.
After entering the house, Li Mu found that only Zhong Xiuyuan was waiting in the house, and Zhong Manlu was nowhere to be seen.
"His eyes are red from crying, and he doesn't want to come out." Zhong Xiuyuan saw Li Mu's doubts at a glance.
Speaking of the matter on Zhongman Road, Zhong Xiuyuan had a bit of helplessness and elder tenderness in his eyes.
The blood relationship is a very magical thing. Even though he and Zhong Manlu did not grow up together, and spent very little time together, it did not prevent him from treating Zhong Manlu as his younger brother. children look at.
Hearing Zhong Xiuyuan's words, Li Mu couldn't help showing a bit of the gentleness of an elder on his face. This Zhong Manlu seemed to be quite a sensible person on weekdays, but he didn't expect to be so childish sometimes.
"Let's eat first, I'll bring him some food later." Zhong Xiuyuan said, thinking about how Zhong Manlu was crying in front of him in the afternoon, Zhong Xiuyuan became happier.
It's been two years since Zhong Manlu has grown into a half-adult. He will be able to say goodbye to his age in two years. If he works harder, in another three years, maybe he will be able to have a nephew and niece to hug him. up.
After being seated, several people ate dinner silently.
After the meal, Li Mu led Zhong Xiuyuan, and the two of them walked slowly one by one, and walked towards the small courtyard where they lived.
Not long after he walked out, Li Mu realized that something was wrong with the people next to him.
Zhong Xiuyuan covered his mouth and occasionally made a little noise, his appearance was extremely strange.
"What's the matter?" Li Mu tilted his head and looked at the person next to him who suddenly moved, and then suddenly moved after a while, with a slight puzzlement in his black and white eyes.
Under the night, Zhong Xiuyuan covered his mouth, as if he wanted to say something to Li Mu, when he was about to speak, he twitched again.
Seeing him like this, Li Mu came back to his senses, this person is hiccupping?
Li Mu was about to ask for proof, when he saw the person next to him move again, and let out a "cluck" sound from his covered mouth.
He wanted to cover his mouth so he wouldn't hiccup, but he couldn't do anything about himself. When he saw Li Mu, he wanted to laugh for a moment.
"How did this happen?" Li Mu stretched out his hand, pulled Zhong Xiuyuan's hand away from his mouth, and secretly searched for the little tricks he knew in his mind to prevent hiccups.
In the end, he pulled Zhong Xiuyuan's hand away from his mouth, and he heard Zhong Xiuyuan hiccup, this time it was not the same as before, but a full hiccup.
Hearing that voice, Zhong Xiuyuan's ears turned red immediately, and he quickly raised his hand to cover his mouth.
Li Mu was really made to laugh by this one, this person...
"Don't laugh." Zhong Xiuyuan covered his mouth and moaned.
Li Muyi said no expression on his face, but his eyes were full of smiles.
Zhong Xiuyuan hiccupped again, quite annoyed.
"Why eat so much? Like it?" Li Mu was puzzled.
The food at the magistrate's house is very ordinary, not delicious, but ordinary home-cooked food.
He didn't know that Zhong Xiuyuan actually liked these tastes, and he could eat himself until he hiccupped.
Zhong Xiuyuan covered his mouth, turned his head and muttered something, but Li Mu couldn't hear clearly, "What?"
Zhong Xiuyuan didn't say anything more, he just quickened his pace and walked towards the small courtyard.
After entering the courtyard, seeing that Li Mu hadn't followed, he stretched out his hand and touched his stomach with some resentment. Although he was wearing two thick clothes, because he was indeed too thin, he still felt uncomfortable even now. Some diaphragms.
Ever since Li Mu said that that day, he has been intentionally eating more, thinking that the flesh on his body can grow back, and no matter what happens, he can't let this person say that he touched his diaphragm...
But after these days, he was full every day, and his stomach was round and round, but the flesh on his body was still not moving.
After hiccupping again, Zhong Xiuyuan walked to his room while stroking his stomach resentfully.
Li Mu, who was walking a few steps behind Zhong Xiu, saw this man walking forward annoyedly while touching and pinching his stomach, and he reacted after a while.
Li Mu shook his head, feeling amused.
After he delivered the dinner he brought back to Zhong Manlu to his room, he went back to his room.
When Li Mu entered the room, Zhong Xiuyuan stopped touching his stomach. He drank several large bowls of water on the table, trying to stop hiccupping, but the effect was not obvious.
On the contrary, after drinking these few glasses of water, his stomach is now fuller.
After entering the room, Li Mu softened his heart when he saw the frowning person who thumped from time to time, and beckoned the person to come over, "Come here."
003.
Zhong Xiuyuan hiccupped again, then walked towards Li Mu and sat down beside Li Mu.
Li Mu turned his body sideways, stretched out his hand, and under Zhong Xiuyuan's gaze, he put his hand on his stomach, and then touched it lightly.
"Aren't you stupid, what are you eating so much for?" Zhong Xiuyuan's stomach was stuffed to the brim, round and hard to the touch.
Zhong Xiuyuan didn't speak, and he also felt that he was a bit stupid at the moment, but it was obviously Li Mu who thought he was too thin to touch...
Since that day at the inn, he and Li Mu slept separately during this period of time, and Li Mu was busy with disaster relief work on weekdays, so Li Mu hadn't hugged him for a long time.
Zhong Xiuyuan felt that he shouldn't care about these things, but after touching his stomach, he still cared about it.
Seeing Li Mu rubbing his stomach now, Zhong Xiuyuan leaned back and changed to a comfortable position, wagging his tail and lying on his back, which made it easier for Li Mu to rub his stomach.
Li Mu's hand slid down the top of Zhong Xiuyuan's stomach lightly and lightly, again and again, probably to make the person under his hand feel comfortable. When he looked up, Zhong Xiuyuan was already lying comfortably. He closed his eyes under the blanket.
Li Mu patted the man's stomach, and after stroking him well, he went up and touched the man's face.
Zhong Xiuyuan, who seemed to be asleep with his eyes closed, turned his head instinctively, and rubbed his face in Li Mu's hands.
Li Mu withdrew his hand, and put his hand on Zhong Xiuyuan's face to cover the man's eyes. Although the man under him didn't move, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and the eyelashes brushed his palm, causing a burst of itching.
"If you can't eat, don't eat so much." The body is already weak, if it is sustained like this, what if something goes wrong?
The eyelashes under Li Mu's palm trembled again. Zhong Xiuyuan should also know that he is a little stupid now. He didn't speak, but closed his eyes, just to pretend to be asleep.
After a while, Li Mu took his palm away, and there was no sound in the room anymore.
Zhong Xiuyuan closed his eyes and waited for a while. He pricked up his ears and listened quietly, trying to figure out what Li Mu was doing, but he didn't hear any sound after listening for a long time.
After a while and still not hearing any sound, Zhong Xiuyuan secretly opened half of one eye, but as soon as the eye opened, it met Li Mu's approaching face.
Startled, he opened his eyes.
At some point, Li Mu lay down on his side, leaning against him.As soon as he opened his eyes, he immediately met Li Mu's eyes.
"Stop pretending to be asleep?" Li Mu asked.
Being exposed, Zhong Xiuyuan immediately struggled to sit up, but the pain involved his stomach, and he groaned silently and lay down again.
After lying down, Zhong Xiuyuan stretched out his hands and touched his stomach involuntarily. His stomach was already bulging, but suddenly this force made him feel a little pain.
Li Mu saw this scene completely in his eyes, and after seeing this person bared his teeth in pain, he said: "Even if I lost some weight, I don't dislike it."
Zhong Xiuyuan, who was baring his teeth and stroking his belly, paused with his hands.
He didn't look at Li Mu, but continued to touch his stomach, as if he didn't hear Li Mu's words just now.He should have been happy because of Li Mu's words, but at this moment he couldn't be happy.
Since he met Li Mu again, Li Mu never once asked him about the wound on his face, nor did he say anything to Li Mu.
He is a man, and Li Mu is also a man. He shouldn't pay too much attention to these things, but the things on his face, even people who don't care much about them, now have a scar on their face, so they have to pay more attention to it. .
What's more, his scar, which slid from his left forehead to his right cheek, was rather ferocious.
This injury was probably only a few months ago. Although the scab has scabbed over now, it is no longer serious, but the wound that just healed is still red, and it looks more terrifying than those old wounds.
If he had been his general in the military camp and had such a wound on his face, he would still be happy about it, because this wound erased the beauty that shouldn't be on his face, and instead made his face more beautiful. He was a little more hostile and a little more terrifying, this is what a general should look like.
But now he is no longer a general, just an ordinary person, and an ordinary person has such a scary scar on his face...
The thinness of his body can be nourished by eating some food, but even if his master Zuo Yi is alive, there is no way to completely remove the matter on his face, and it will leave a mark after all.
Li Mu didn't speak, and lay quietly next to Zhong Xiuyuan, and never noticed the changing expressions of the people beside him.
When the street outside the house gradually became quiet, and when the night gradually deepened, Zhong Xiuyuan beside him moved.
He turned around, took Li Mu's hand silently, put his hand on his face, and asked him to cover his eyes like before.
After lying quietly like this for a while, Zhong Xiuyuan wriggled up from under Li Mu's hands as if dissatisfied, moved on his knees on the bed, and landed on Li Mu's body.
Holding Li Mu tightly in his arms, Zhong Xiuyuan put his face on Li Mu's chest, quietly listening to Li Mu's strong heartbeat, and then hiccupped untimely.
The prone position pressed against his stomach, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
Zhong Xiuyuan reached out and rubbed his stomach, thought for a while, then took Li Mu's hand, and put Li Mu's hand on his stomach, wagging his tail as if begging for a touch.
Li Mu lay quietly on the bed with his eyes closed, motionless, letting the people around him do this for a while, for a while, for a while, for a while, for a while, to pull his hand, and for a while, to throw himself on him and rub against him.
It was late at night, and Li Mu was a little sleepy, but Zhong Xiuyuan was probably full because he ate too much, so he was in good spirits and clingy.
As the night gradually deepened, sleepiness gradually struck. Zhong Xiuyuan, who had been making a fuss for most of the night, finally fell asleep slowly with hiccups.
In the early morning of the next day, the magistrate sent a lot of people to invite those people to come over as Li Mu said.
As soon as there is movement here, the matter will spread around.
A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and the time soon reached the time set by Li Mu.
It was probably because many people were thinking about the matter of the Imperial Merchant, so this time almost all the people Li Mu invited were here, and the first one to come was definitely Mr. Qin.
After he came, Li Mu talked to him in this way, then asked him for help, found a relatively large and quiet place near the pier, and booked a banquet.
The banquet was scheduled for the evening, Master Qin helped Zhang Luo, and after Li Mu changed into clothes that looked good, he was ready to set off and walk towards the place where the banquet was scheduled.
As soon as Li Mu went out, he saw a man wearing a guard uniform standing outside the door. The man was standing with his back to Li Mu. Li Mu looked familiar, but he didn't know any guards in this mansion, so he turned around. Go to the other end.
He had only taken two steps, but Zhong Xiuyuan's voice came from behind him, and Li Mu looked back.
Turning around, he realized that the person who was standing outside the door wearing a guard's uniform was actually Zhong Xiuyuan. He didn't know when Zhong Xiuyuan changed into a guard's clothes.
The dark clothes made him look a little thinner, but he also revealed a bit of a capable atmosphere. In addition, he was originally a soldier in the army, so he was full of aura, which made him a bit scary.
While Li Mu was staring at Zhong Xiuyuan, Zhong Xiuyuan was also looking at Li Mu who had changed into a new suit in front of him.
Li Mujian's eyebrows are starry, and he has such a meticulous and unchanging face, he looks a bit like a rich man.
Zhong Xiuyuan looked up and down, and nodded in satisfaction. Master Qin's vision is really good.
"Why are you dressed like this?" Li Mu asked.
"Of course I went with you." Zhong Xiuyuan took out a long knife out of nowhere and hung it on his waist, looking decent.
Li Mu opened his mouth and was about to say something, but Zhong Xiuyuan raised his hand to stop him, "I know what you want to say, but this time I must go." Divided hostility.
Zhong Xiu couldn't let go of what happened in Anfu before. Those few people dared to stop Li Mu on Anfu Street. Now if Li Mu is allowed to meet these people alone, who knows what they will do? Won't you embarrass Li Mu again?
Even now those people would not dare to do anything to Li Mu, but he still didn't want Li Mu to suffer this kind of grievance.
According to his current personality that likes to be quiet, if this business is not good for Li Mu, it's fine if Li Mu doesn't do it. At worst, they go back to raise ducks.But he also probably knew that Li Mu still wanted to do this business, so he put on a black coat, stood behind him, and stayed with him.
"Don't worry, I will only follow behind you." Zhong Xiuyuan promised again.
Zhong Xiuyuan obviously made up his mind, Li Mu didn't stop him any more, turned around and walked towards the banquet location.
The banquet was held in the courtyard behind a large restaurant near the pier. The courtyard was quite large, specially prepared for this situation, and could accommodate many people.
After nightfall, lanterns were lit in the yard.The flickering flames stirred up the lake in the yard, causing bursts of water to shine.
When Li Mu arrived, almost all the people he had invited to the banquet had already arrived. Seeing Li Mu coming, everyone stopped talking and turned their heads to look this way, looking curiously and contemptuously.
Li Mu walked in front, wearing a green shirt, quite heroic.His brows are clear and his nose is straight, his black eyes are as black as night and bottomless.
His lightly pursed lips formed a cold arc. After entering the courtyard, he could only look and say nothing, but frightened everyone out of thin air.
Behind him was a man with deep browbones, a wounded face, and cold eyes with a hint of warning.
The man's body wrapped in pitch-black clothes was a little thin, but his fierce aura was arrogant, making Li Mu three points intimidating in front of him.
They had all inquired about Li Mu who took down the person in charge of Huangshangtangkou before, and they knew more or less about Li Mu, so many people came here this time with a bit of contempt.
But at this moment, seeing Li Mu like this, and the guard behind him looking so imposing, the group of people were a little confused for a moment. Could it be that Li Mu is so different from the rumors?
