Wife is an enemy general

001.

Listening to Li Mu's words, feeling the warm breath from Li Mu, Zhong Xiuyuan's ears were buzzing, and he felt that Li Mu's voice seemed to come from a very far away place.

"What, what..."

Li Mu raised the corner of his mouth, and there was a bit of evil in his dark eyes with a bit of a smirk, "What do you think?"

After finishing the words, Li Mu lowered his body and kissed him.

Kissing, sucking, exhaling, this is something they have done countless times before, but now it is so strange and so crazy.

After the kiss was over, Li Mu looked from top to bottom at the person in front of him whose eyes were softened by him, feeling a sense of accomplishment spontaneously.

Zhong Xiuyuan was in a daze at the moment, he seemed to have fallen into a strange dream, everything around him disappeared, only the man in front of him was left looking at him.

"Li Mu?" Zhong Xiuyuan opened his mouth, seemingly in doubt, but only called Li Mu's name.

"Well, I'm here." Li Mu's answer was accompanied by a more burning kiss.

Hearing the reassuring answer, and smelling the intoxicating aura belonging to Li Mu, Zhong Xiuyuan seemed to wake up from a dream. He was no longer confused, and lifted his body slightly upwards, catering to Li Mu and asking him for a kiss.

Li Mu sucked Zhong Xiuyuan's lips fiercely, and the winter cold was dispelled, replaced by deep panting/breathing and murmuring.

Hearing Zhong Xiuyuan's panting voice, the corners of Li Mu's mouth couldn't help but rise, and his movements gained a bit of strength.

It has been eight years since I knew this person existed, I have worshiped this person for more than three years and nearly four years, and we have been separated for two years.

During the half a year when this person seemed to disappear and no one could find him, Li Mu didn't think about it, if he never saw this person again, would the previous forbearance and wasting time become permanent.

Now that the person is back, he will naturally not let the previous things happen again.

While thinking wildly, Li Mu moved a little faster with his hands, and asked the people under him to adopt bigger and more embarrassing postures to cater to his movements.

In the early morning, when the sky was just gray, there was a rush of knocking on the door.

Accompanied by that voice came the coldness of the morning and Zhong Manlu's voice, "Brother, we are leaving."

Li Mu had already told him and Xia Jingming about selling ducks yesterday, and it was originally agreed to go on the road today.

Although Li Mu had already handed over this matter to him and Xia Jingming, according to Li Mu's personality, he would definitely get up in the morning and explain it to them carefully. Unexpectedly, they were about to leave, but Li Mu was still in the house.

Hearing that voice, Li Mu, who had been struggling all night last night, opened his eyes. He got up instinctively, and he realized that his arms were heavy when he moved.

Opening his eyes drowsily, and finding his head in the crook of his arms, Li Mu's still somewhat chaotic brain gradually cleared up.

He quietly put the man's head on the pillow, then wrapped him in the quilt, got up, put on his clothes, and went out.

After leaving the door, Li Mu was arranging the belt around his waist, and Zhong Manlu was already looking around curiously, "What's the matter?"

At this time on weekdays, Li Mu had already gotten up and walked around the mountain.Li Mu is a hardworking person, and it is rare for him to be lazy like this on weekdays.

"It's okay." Li Mu fastened his clothes and walked towards the door, "It was cold last night, he caught a cold."

Zhongman Lu didn't doubt that he was there, nodded, closed the door and followed Li Mu to the duck shed down the mountain.

All the ducks were placed on the side of the duck shed. There was a road from the duck shed to the foot of the mountain. Li Mu had only opened it in the past few years. The carriage could barely pass by, and the ducks could be transported directly to the foot of the mountain.

When Li Mu arrived, it was already late, Xia Jingming and Zhong Manlu had chosen two young long-term workers, they were already waiting there, and all the ducks had already been packed.

After Li Mu explained in detail, he handed the previous account book to Zhong Manlu, and asked him to keep it carefully.

"After arriving at the place, send out the goods separately according to the amount on the account book, and you can return after collecting the money." Li Mu said.

He has cooperated with these people for a long time, so this matter is not difficult.

Zhong Manlu carefully put away the ledger and put it in his pocket. After talking to Li Mu, he excitedly drove the carriage and walked down the mountain.

Li Mu stood in front of the duck shed, and he walked up the mountain slowly until everyone was far away, and went back home.

When Li Mu returned to the mountain, the fish-belly white in the distance in the sky had dissipated, and it was replaced by a brilliant glow.

The people in the room must have been tired last night, and they still have no intention of waking up. Li Mu didn't wake them up, but closed the door and went to the oven that Zhong Xiuyuan helped to set up last night. Duck eggs overnight.

Last night, the oven was set up simply, and some cotton wool was simply put inside, and then two or three duck eggs were put into it. After Li Mu opened the cotton wool above, a warm breath rushed towards him.

Li Mu tested the temperature with his hand on the duck egg. The temperature was not particularly high, but it was much higher than the body temperature.

Li Mu took one of the duck eggs, walked to the direction of the door, held the duck egg with his hand and looked at the place with light.

After pondering for a while, he went to the kitchen to get a bowl, then knocked the duck egg against the mouth of the bowl with a bang, broke open the shell, and cracked the egg into the bowl.

Sure enough, although the egg was not fully cooked, the white had already turned white, and the temperature was still a bit high after all.

Li Mu went back to the room again, and cracked the other two eggs into the bowl. The condition of those two eggs was similar to the one he had beaten before, the egg whites were all the same, and the egg whites were white.

Li Mu was thinking about putting some insulation in the oven made of stone, so that the temperature would drop a bit, and at the same time, he took the beaten egg drops to the kitchen and cooked a pot of egg drops. Soup.

He simply made some broken noodles and cooked a pot of broken noodles, then he went to the bedroom to wake up the person who was still sleeping soundly.

The chill in the morning has faded, and now the sun has poured into the house, making the temperature in the house slightly higher than at night.

Zhong Xiuyuan, who was drowsily asleep, heard Li Mu's voice, turned over and seemed to want to sleep for a while, his movements involved the place that Li Mu had tossed about last night, he gave a warning, and slowly opened the door. Eye.

"Wake up when you wake up." Li Mu sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the person who was pulling the quilt around his neck with a blushing face.

He had seen what he should see last night, what he shouldn't have seen, and even the more intimate things. Now what's the use of tearing up the quilt to cover his nose and mouth?

"Zhongman Road has already gone to the pier, and the sun has come out. If you don't get up again, the sun will dry your ass." Li Mu took out the things he had prepared from the side of the pillow and put them on the quilt while talking. superior.

Zhong Xiuyuan's eyes kept turning with Li Mu's movements, seeing what Li Mu was holding in his hand, he was puzzled for a while, and when he understood, he turned his face away in embarrassment.

Li Mu didn't give him a chance to dodge at all, but pulled the quilt and passed the things in his hand a little bit forward, "Come here, let me have a look."

Zhong Xiuyuan listened to Li Mu's words, and saw Li Mu's hands. After tossing all night, his already soft and numb waist suddenly felt hot, and the swollen and uncomfortable place was even more hot and uncomfortable.

"I'll do it myself..." After a long while, Zhong Xiuyuan choked out these words in a hoarse voice.

"Can you see it yourself?" Li Mu didn't intend to let go.

Zhong Xiuyuan shrank under the quilt again, unable to lift his head.

How to say what happened last night, although it is inevitable that he would be a little shameless when he said it, but he has already thought about it. During the two years of separation from Li Mu, he would occasionally dream of some embarrassing things at night. .

But thinking about it, it really happened, but it was a little different.

Although he knows that this is a natural thing, and his young and vigorous body misses this kind of thing, but now he is not doing that thing, and he is asked to put on such a wide-open posture, so that this person can see his embarrassment , he couldn't do it.

It had nothing to do with etiquette, but he couldn't wipe his face off, and he was really ashamed.

Zhong Xiuyuan didn't say anything, he stretched out his hand to snatch the bamboo tube with the ointment in Li Mu's hand, but Li Mu raised his hand and avoided his hand.

Zhong Xiuyuan failed to snatch something, and was about to withdraw his hand, but was caught by Li Mu.

Li Mu lowered his head and approached the person hiding in the blanket, "You are a medical student yourself, you should know what the consequences will be if the wound is not good, and you will suffer the consequences at that time."

"I know..." Zhong Xiuyuan tilted his head, not facing Li Mu face to face.

Li Mu supported his side with one hand, his chin got into the quilt, and he kissed this man's lips involuntarily. Originally, he just tasted it lightly, but whoever wanted to start couldn't stop until he kissed this man until he was breathless. But when he was angry, he let him go.

Li Mu turned the man over with the quilt, put a quilt under him, and pulled the quilt off his body, only showing the wound.

Unscrewed the bamboo tube, dug out the ointment and applied it lightly.

Looking at the red and swollen wounds under his hands, Li Mu couldn't help but relax a bit. After all, he had tossed a bit too much last night.

"Uncomfortable?" Li Mu asked.

After all, this is the first time for this person, and his body has not yet recovered, so he should be more gentle.

Zhong Xiuyuan was lying on the bed at the moment, burying his head between the pillow and holding the quilt tightly with both hands, only his red ears were exposed.

Hearing Li Mu's question, his head moved slightly, not knowing whether to say no or yes.

After applying the medicine, Li Mu pulled the quilt to cover the person again.

He took the ointment, got up, took the clothes that were placed next to him and put them next to the pillow, "Okay, put on your clothes and go out to eat."

Knowing that this person was shy, Li Mu didn't continue to bully him after spending half the night last night.

However, even so, the smile on his face never disappeared.

002.

After March or April, it will be considered spring in this mountain.

Although they are hot in summer and cold in winter, and the snow in the mountains still hasn't melted in some places, but the peach blossoms in the mountains are blooming as they should.

Over the past few years, Li Mu has intermittently planted peach trees, jujube trees, and other fruit trees in the surrounding mountains.

The other fruit trees have not moved yet, and some of them are just bare tree trunks, but the peach tree, which is the most numerous in the mountains and plains, has already produced flower buds.

In the mountains, there are more than ten days of warm spring sun, drying away the cold air of the whole winter, and when the snow in the mountains is almost melted, there will be bursts of fragrance from the mountains.

When Zhong Manlu, who went to sell ducks, came back to the mountain, the peach blossoms in the mountain were in full bloom, and there were clusters of pink flowers all over the mountain, which was really lovely.

Many people from the town below the mountain invited people to come to the mountain to see the peach blossoms, which made the deserted mountain lively for a while.

The snow in the mountains has melted, and the flowers in the mountains have bloomed, so Li Mu's matter has come.

Peach blossoms bloomed in clusters, and the flowers were in excellent condition, but this was not a very good thing for Li Mu.

The peach blossoms planted in Li Mu's mountain are intended to fruit and sell peaches, so the peach blossoms can no longer be allowed to bloom at will. After winter and spring, the flowers and fruits must be thinned.

Pinch some of the luxuriant flower bones, and leave some on the main trunk, so that the nutrition in the field can keep up, so that when there are too many fruits, they will all grow crooked.

Li Mu had already learned the matter of thinning flowers and fruits last year. At that time, the peach trees in the mountain bloomed for the first time, and not many bloomed, only a few trees were in bloom, so Li Mu took those trees for practice, and now This experience is barely there.

But this year, the peach blossoms in the mountains are basically in bloom, and there are only a lot of peach trees that need to thin the flowers and fruits. He is too busy alone, so he has been thinking about asking for help two months earlier.

The flowering season of peach blossoms is fixed, it will not bloom all the time, so they have to pinch off the extra flower buds before the flowers bloom.

This is a job in a hurry, and there are enough people.

There are a dozen or three long-term workers hired by Li Mu's family now. Li Mu is not going to move these people, because they have to help feed the ducks.

So he had to hire someone who helped thin the flowers and fruits again.

It is not difficult to invite people. Li Mu yelled casually. The people in the village and those farmers at the foot of the mountain heard that they have money to get them. Many people are willing to come. The main trouble is to teach these people how to thin flowers. fruit.

After more than ten days of tossing around, Li Mu selected a group of hard-working peasant women. Li Mu led a group of people to the mountains to give a good lecture for a day, and did it himself for everyone to see.

Then he followed the crowd, guarding them and watching them do it. After two or three days of tossing like this, Li Mu dared to let these people do it.

Wages are paid every day, and one day is one day.

The quality and quality of thinning flowers and fruits will affect the quality and quantity of fruit trees in that year.

Li Mu doesn't think these people are slow to make more money, he is afraid that these people will be sloppy for that little money.

In mid-April, the originally quiet mountain became lively. Twenty or thirty village women, each with a small bamboo basket on their waist, began to get busy in the mountain with a ladder.

Li Mu, Zhong Xiuyuan, and Zhong Manlu were among them, and like the others, they had a small bamboo basket hanging from their waists to hold some beautiful peach blossoms.

The peach blossoms were useless when they were picked, but Li Mu asked everyone to choose some good-looking ones and put them in a small basket, and then hand them in at night.

Everyone didn't know why, but Li Mu gave generous wages, so they didn't pursue it. According to what Li Mu said, they chose some beautiful peach blossoms among the picked peach blossoms, stuffed them into small baskets, and handed them over to Li Mu when they got off work at night.

In the early morning, the fog in the mountains has not completely dissipated, and the laughter of the crowd, accompanied by bursts of peach blossom fragrance, has spread in the mountains and forests.

"Be careful." Li Mu stood under the peach tree and supported the ladder, and asked Zhong Xiuyuan, who was on the ladder, to pick the flowers on the top of the peach tree.

Zhong Xiuyuan's body was very flexible. After he got on the tree, he stepped on the trunk, stood firmly among the branches, stretched out his hands to grab the branches above the tree, and pulled off the excessive flowers on them.

Zhong Xiuyuan is a smart person with a flexible mind and a quick learner.

When Li Mu first started teaching him how to thin flowers and fruits, he was a little slow to learn, but he really got used to it, and now it is much smoother than Li Mu's speed.

"I'm fine, just put the ladder there." Zhong Xiuyuan stood on the tree trunk, among the clusters of peach blossoms, his whole body was almost drowned by the peach blossoms.

His body has been exercised all year round, and he is very flexible. Although the peach trees have grown branches in the past two or three years, they are not very tall. Even if his feet slip and fall, nothing will happen.

Li Mu looked up for a while, and after confirming that Zhong Xiuyuan could get down by himself, he tightened the small bamboo basket behind him and walked to the side.

In the peach blossom forest in the early morning, the peach blossom trees are covered with crystal clear and vigorous dewdrops, which are a bit cold and fragrant when they hit the body.

The faint fragrance of peach blossoms among the colorful fallen leaves seems to have penetrated into the dew. Walking around in this mountain, when you go down the mountain, you will have a bit of fragrance on your body.

The village women on the nearby trees were chatting in twos and threes. They were also very fond of the dewdrops on the peach blossom trees, and they were also very happy about the occasional peach petals or two on their bodies.

In the middle of the morning, Zhong Manlu came up out of breath carrying a large bucket, which was some peach blossom soup that Li Mu asked Xu Tian to help cook.

Peach blossom water, honey, add a little fresh peach blossom, add some ginger, boil it out, the soup water with bursts of heat and aroma, quenches thirst and dispels cold.

In the mountains in April, although most of the snow has melted, it is still a bit cold after all.

Especially after being contaminated with this dew, if the wind blows, it will make your hands and feet cold, so Li Mu specially asked Xu Tian to help cook such a soup to drive away the cold.

Zhong Xiuyuan helped to take the bowl, and after putting down the peach blossom soup for one person, he took a bowl and found Li Mu in the forest who was picking peach blossoms from a peach blossom branch in the distance, took the bowl and left past.

"Drink something hot." Zhong Xiuyuan handed over the bowl.

Holding the branch in his hand, Li Mu didn't let go, just took Zhong Xiuyuan's hand and drank most of the peach blossom soup in the bowl in one go.

Seeing that Li Mu stopped drinking, Zhong Xiu took the same bowl and drank the rest.

For the convenience of doing things, Zhong Xiuyuan rolled up both of his sleeves, revealing his strong and strong arms.

He put away the bowl, stared at Li Mu, checked the fallen peach blossom petals on him, and patted the dew on his body, "Would you like to rest for a while?"

Li Mu has been busy here for half the morning, and he is indeed a little tired now.

Looking at the resting people beside him, he took off the small bamboo basket tied to his body and looked at the peach blossoms inside.

"Okay, I'll take this petal home." Li Mu said.

"Do you want me to help you?" Zhong Xiuyuan returned the bowl to Zhong Manlu.

Others don't know what Li Mu wants to do with these peach blossoms, but Zhong Xiuyuan knows it all too well.

Li Mu used all these dewy fresh peach blossoms to make wine.

Zhong Xiuyuan didn't know where Li Mu came up with the idea, but the peach blossom wine he brewed, aside from the taste, was really gratifying just by looking at it.

Although Zhong Xiuyuan is not addicted to alcohol, he has heard of peach blossom wine. He often hears that peach blossom wine can cure all kinds of diseases. Drinking it in the morning and evening can even lead to longevity and good health.

Whether this stuff can prolong life or not is unknown to Zhong Xiu, but it is said that this stuff has an excellent taste, with a faint peach blossom aroma, so it is a treasure.

This morning, the basket Li Mu used to collect peach blossoms was half full, and the pink peach blossom petals carried a faint fragrance, which was refreshing.

After Li Mu poured all the peach blossoms in the small baskets, he and Zhong Xiuyuan lifted the big bamboo basket back to the mountain with one side.

In the mountains, Li Mu has already prepared the things needed to brew peach blossom wine, various pots and jars, as well as sake, fermented glutinous rice, rock sugar, and well water for soaking peach blossoms.

Before the freshly harvested peach blossoms are used to make wine, they need to be soaked in light salt water and then dried.

After carrying the basket to his fenced yard, Zhong Xiuyuan helped Li Mu pick out the peach blossoms and soak them.

Li Mu has gluttons in his stomach, so he has always been very patient with food, from carefully cleaning the peach blossoms to drying to bottling, he personally took care of every step.

After today's peach blossoms were all soaked in water, Li Mu took the ones that had been soaked and dried yesterday from the side, and then the two of them sat in the yard and bottled them.

Peach blossom tastes bitter, so peach blossom wine needs to be added with sugar, and rock sugar must be added. Peach blossom can only be added after a layer of rock sugar is spread on the bottom of the tank, and the wine can be poured in after the peach blossom is covered.

The blossoming petals float up and down in the sake, and then finally wash away all the lead, making a jar of peach blossom wine.

After burying the last altar of peach blossom wine in the mountain, Zhong Xiuyuan wiped off the sweat from his forehead, but he couldn't help murmuring, "...you just sit in front of the flowers when you wake up, and you come to sleep under flowers when you're drunk .Half-drunk and half-awake day after day, flowers bloom year after year..."

He heard this poem from Li Mu's mouth, not Li Mu's writing, but he only listened to it once and fell in love with it thoroughly.

Although this is not a Peach Blossom Temple, and there is no Peach Blossom Immortal, although he has not picked peach blossoms for wine money, but he has to guard the peach grove year after year.

There are peach trees all over the mountains and plains here, as well as Li Mu. For him, this place is probably already the paradise in that poem.

003.

In May, almost all the peach trees in the mountain had been thinned out. After Li Mu paid the wages with everyone, and set up a simple banquet for everyone, the matter was completely over.

After finishing the general work of the peach tree, Li Mu only occasionally went to the mountains when he had time to see if there was any need to cut off some flower buds.

For the rest of the time, he no longer hangs around the mountain, but watches his newly hatched ducklings at the foot of the mountain.

There were thirty duck eggs he bought from Qingmu before, but now there are only seventeen ducks left in his hands, but at least they were hatched.

Those white fluffy fist-sized ducklings, one by one in this spring-filled mountain, look like balls of cotton wool, which are extraordinarily lovable.

Knowing that these ducks are not easy to raise, Li Mu has been by their side almost ever since they hatched.

All the food is done by him himself, and he will pick it up one by one every morning and night to check.

Zhong Xiuyuan picked up the medical books he had left behind, and followed Li Mu all day thinking about these ducks.

Seeing these ducks grow up slowly day by day, the two of them did not dare to take it lightly, but became more and more nervous.

But apart from the duck, there were things in the mountain that both of them cared about.

In April and May, bamboo shoots grow in spring in the mountains.

Because of the extra cold this year, the day has been pushed back a bit.The sun is good recently, so the mountains and plains are full of people carrying bamboo baskets to dig spring bamboo shoots.

Zhong Xiuyuan also followed Li Mu into the mountain this year, carrying bamboo baskets on his back, to dig out bamboo shoots that are only the size of a thumb and have long roots.

At noon, facing the warm sun, the two men, covered in sweat and dew, returned to their yard with two bamboo shoots on their backs, Zhong Xiuyuan was quite emotional.

In the first year when he first came to the mountain, he was injured on his leg and couldn't walk on the ground. At that time, Li Mu and Uncle Hong went to the mountain to break off bamboo shoots. 'Just leave.

I still remember that at that time, he walked around this thing all day long, and he was quite annoyed, but now that he saw this thing again, he liked it a little more.

Each section has the unique fragrance of bamboo shoots, white and green, which makes the index finger move.

In the yard, Li Mu threw the bamboo shoots he carried back to Uncle Hong's yard, carrying a pony pony to face a pile of bamboo shoots, behind Zhong Manlu, who was frowning.

With dewy clothes on his body, he took the net and bucket in his yard and walked down the mountain.

Seeing this, Zhong Xiuyuan ignored his younger brother's look for help, and patted his buttocks and followed Li Mu down the mountain.

In the weather at the end of May, besides the bamboo shoots to eat in the mountains, there is another thing that Li Mu has been thinking about for a long time, and that is the rice field eels in the pond.

Rice field eels were supposed to be more abundant in June and July, but by the end of May they had already grown and were ready to eat, so Li Mumu had already been thinking about them.

He led Zhong Xiuyuan down the mountain and found the edge of the pond in his house. After putting down the bucket, Li Mu took the net and prepared to go down into the mud to touch it.

In the past two years, Li Mu has opened up the original large pond in the mountain to provide water for ducks to play with.

The water is no longer as clear as before, with a bit of turbidity.

When the water is clear, there are no fish, but over the years, there have been a lot of fish in it, including a lot of eels and the like.

Li Mu did these things smoothly, touched several in a short while, Zhong Xiuyuan saw that his hands were itchy, rolled up his sleeves, took off his shoes, and followed Li Mu down the muddy ground.

"Be careful, it's slippery—" Seeing Zhong Xiuyuan come down, Li Mu was about to remind him to tell him that it's not easy to walk in the mud. Before he finished speaking, Zhong Xiuyuan's foot slipped and he sat down.

Zhong Xiuyuan sat in the mud, he was stunned for a while before recovering, he struggled to stand up from the mud, but the result of this struggle was that his butt sank more and more.

Seeing his sagging buttocks on all fours, Li Mu couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.

Zhong Xiuyuan was a little embarrassed because of his embarrassed appearance.

Li Mu stretched out his hand and pulled the man up.

"Go to the shore and stay." Li Mu suppressed a smile.

Zhong Xiuyuan looked back at the mud on his buttocks, dejectedly, and slowly groped towards the shore.

By the time Li Mu touched a dozen or so eels, collected his things and led the people up the mountain, the pile of mud on Zhong Xiuyuan's buttocks was almost dry.

Li Mu, who was walking behind him, was in a good mood all the way, and also saw this man blushing, wishing he could go home and change his clothes immediately.

Living in the mountains has its own benefits, just like the wild game in all seasons, those who live in the mountains must be the first to taste it.

In the weather that is not too hot, I took the dried bamboo shoots saved in previous years, cut a piece of bacon and stewed a pot of hot soup, got some fresh bamboo shoots to fry, fried a plate of spicy rice eels, and then went to the peach blossom forest to dig a pot of new wine Peach Blossom Wine.

At night, nestling in the small courtyard of my own house, with the flickering oil lamps on, this day is also extremely carefree.

At night, after Li Mu put the bacon soup stewed with dried bamboo shoots on the table, he quickly withdrew his hands to touch his ears.

After that, Zhong Xiuyuan and Zhong Manlu, each holding a bowl and the other serving food, looked forward to the not-so-rich but tempting dinner on the table.

The three of them were about to sit down when there was a commotion outside the courtyard.

Under the dark night, a group of people wearing black cloaks poured into the yard of their house.

Before Li Mu could be surprised, he recognized the person who broke into his yard as someone from Uncle Hong's side.

"What?" Li Mu walked towards the door, and the twenty or so people who entered his yard all rushed into the main room of his house.

After closing the door mysteriously, everyone surrounded Li Mu, Zhong Xiuyuan and others and stood in a circle.

The leaders were still those who often brought things to Li Mu, but this time, his face was quite serious.

Before Li Mu could ask again, the two people who were originally standing in front of Li Mu respectfully retreated to the side, revealing a child who was originally standing behind them.

The child looked like seven or eight years old, and he was also wearing a thick black cloak. Under the cloak, his immature face was particularly conspicuous among the group of all grown men.

Seeing the people next to him get out of the way, he took two steps forward and stood in front of the crowd. Although he was speechless, the dignity in his movements made people shocked.

He took off the bamboo hat on his head, revealing a face that was somewhat different from his impression.

The face that was originally a little baby fat has grown in the past three years. Although it is still a little fleshy, there is a little more unfamiliar sternness and seriousness between the eyebrows and eyes.

He handed the bamboo hat to the man in black next to him, and waved his hand to let everyone disperse silently.

He is obviously only seven or eight years old, but he already looks like an adult in his movements.

Seeing Yun'er who suddenly appeared in front of him, Li Mu was speechless for a moment.

The person who often dealt with Li Mu at that time said at this moment: "That Jean brought it here, and he meant to let him stay here for a while."

Li Mu opened his mouth. He had a lot of questions to ask, but in the end he only reduced it to one word, "Okay."

In three years, he knew that Yun'er would definitely experience a lot in these three years.

But I never thought that in just three years, the villain who would have opened his arms happily when he saw him, and ran towards him for a hug, would turn that little man into a hug when he left. Trying not to cry, the doll who was still crying so sadly turned into a mature and serious face even though she was still a child.

With Li Mu's promise, Yun'er, who was surrounded by everyone, looked at the man who led him to the side, and the two went to the yard under the man's bowed respectful request.

After frowning and whispering, he seemed to order these people some things, and then waved away everyone.

The twenty or so people came in a hurry and left in a hurry, and soon they were submerged in the night again.

Watching those people go, Yun'er entered the room, quietly facing the three people in the room.

On his face, there is no embarrassment and anxiety that a seven or eight-year-old child should have, only the indifference and seriousness of strategizing.

He didn't speak, just looked at Li Mu, as if he was waiting for Li Mu's arrangement.

Li Mu opened his mouth, but at that moment he didn't know what to say, only a bitterness remained in his throat.

For a moment, there was silence in the hall.

In the end, it was Zhong Xiuyuan who spoke, "You must be hungry after driving all day, why don't we sit down and eat first?"

After hearing Zhong Xiuyuan's words, Zhong Manlu hurriedly went to the side to get an extra set of bowls and chopsticks, his face was also shocked and complicated.

After closing the door, the four of them sat around the table, but they no longer had the same urgency as before, and everyone ate in silence.

Yun'er was sitting, eating without speaking, just eating quietly.

Li Mushi didn't know what to eat, Zhong Xiuyuan tried to open his mouth to break the silence several times but finally gave up, Zhong Manlu was also silent.

There were three dishes and one soup on the table. Yun'er ate in silence, and tasted all the dishes. When he ate the spicy rice eel, his stern face frowned, obviously still as scared as before. hot.

Zhong Xiuyuan asked Zhong Manlu to go to the kitchen and bring him a bowl and chopsticks, filled him with boiling water to wash the chili peppers, but Yun'er flatly refused, "It's not necessary, it's okay."

His cheeks were flushed, and his tears were hot, but he was habitually holding on.

Without capriciousness and without demands, he chose to back down and never touched that fried rice eel with pepper again.

Seeing Yun'er like this, everyone understood that he had really changed, the intimacy between him and them now was gone, and the relationship between him and them now was more distant.

Those eyes have long lost the confusion they had before, and now those black and white eyes are a secluded pool, pitch black and deep.

After eating dinner in silence and clearing away the dishes, Li Mu went to Uncle Hong's to clean up, and asked Zhong Manlu to stay at Uncle Hong's place for a few days.

He didn't know why Uncle Hong would suddenly send Yun'er back, but since Uncle Hong would make such a choice, presumably it was because he couldn't let Yun'er stay for the time being.

Under such circumstances, he was not sure if Yun Er was safe, and it would be safer to keep it by his side.

After tidying up Uncle Hong's side and asking Zhong Manlu to move all his quilts there, Li Mu helped change into new clean quilts in that room, and then brought Yun'er there.

"Look at what you need. I'll go down the mountain and buy it for you tomorrow morning." Li Mu said.

"No, I've asked them to prepare it, and it will be delivered early tomorrow." Yun'er took off the cloak on her body and hung it aside, "The next time, please bother me."

Standing side by side with him, Li Mu realized that in the past three years, he had grown a lot taller. What used to only reach his waist now almost reached his chest.

His originally thin body has grown a little fatter now, although he is still not thick and somewhat thin.

Today, he has learned to say the word 'booty'.

Li Mu didn't speak anymore, he should be familiar with everything in this mountain, and nothing has changed in his yard, the things are still placed in the same place.Even if he wakes up at night or gets thirsty at night, he will not be unable to find a toilet or find water.

After closing the door for him and going to the yard to wash up, Li Mu didn't feel sleepy for a while.

Under the moonlight, he stood on a high ground outside the yard and looked towards the direction of the duck cage down the mountain.

He couldn't sleep standing here a few years ago because it's been a decade-long battle.Now that he is standing here again, he doesn't know why for a while...
