Wife is an enemy general

Chapter 8 Take off.

Zhong Xiuyuan bit his lower lip, trying to use the pain to pull back his reason, but it was of no use at all, because even though he bit his lip and it hurt, the serious expression on that person's face was still lingering in his mind.

At this moment, there was a movement in the palm of his hand on the bed.

Because of his embarrassment, Zhong Xiuyuan's eyes were filled with water vapor, and he looked at his hand, only to see a peanut on his palm at some point.

Looking up, the little doll chose a big peanut from his pocket, and was peeling the shell with his mouth like a little hamster.

There are not many snacks in the mountains, and a few peanuts make him very precious.

After peeling the peanuts, he looked up at Zhong Xiuyuan, and gave Zhong Xiuyuan another peanut, and put it in his white, slender, slightly callused palm.

"Auntie, eat."

Hearing the childish call, Zhong Xiuyuan's breathing became stagnant again, and the next moment, his whole face was as red as if he was facing the sunset.

Li Mu, who went out, glanced at the weather. The wind was blowing under his feet, and he quickly walked towards the mountain.

Accustomed to running around on the battlefield all year round, the steep and difficult path in this mountain is easy.

The two pieces of land owned by Li Mu's family are on another hilltop, which seems quite close, but to get there from the village, you have to climb the mountain again after going down the mountain on the way.

There is a saying in the mountains called "When you see the house, you cry", which probably refers to this situation.

There are many mountain roads in the mountains, so when Li Mu walked into the field, he couldn't help sweating a lot.

The sun was shining brightly, and it was only April, so I don't know where the sun came from.

When he arrived at the place, Li Mu's sharp-edged face was a bit surprised. The two barren lands that he had expected were not overgrown with weeds, but were divided into several small grids, each with a lot of things planted.

After being surprised at first, Li Mu quickly figured it out.

There were people scrambling for the worthless furniture in his house, how could the two new pieces of land that had been dug out so hard not be snatched up?

Although the land in the mountain is barren, even with careful care, the crops in the field will not be able to match the yield of a fertile soil below the mountain in a season, but since there is ready-made land in front of you, why would anyone not want it?

Li Mu's parents died early. When he just crossed over, these two lands were deserted for four or five years and no one took care of them. Not to mention weeds and saplings grew in the soil.

Later, he, who couldn't hold a hoe well, followed Uncle Hong to learn how to go to the field, and he had his hand calloused under the scorching sun, and it took him a month to collect the two fields.

Now it seems that he didn't grow it himself, but it was cheaper for others.

But since the land was not left unused, he saved a lot.

After looking around, Li Mu turned and walked back.

On the way down the mountain, Li Mu didn't go home directly, but took advantage of the spare time to walk around the mountain and picked some herbs to stop bleeding and promote wound healing.

People in the mountains are not so expensive, and they can get some medicine for minor injuries and diseases by themselves. Li Mu also learned a little from other people.

When he came out of the forest, Li Mu was already holding two handfuls of medicinal herbs.

He patted the grass clippings on himself and walked back.

When I went back, the noise in the village had subsided, and Uncle Hong was holding Yun'er in his yard and teasing her.

Seeing Li Mu coming back, he stepped forward, took out a large handful of copper plates worth nearly a tael of silver from his pocket, and stuffed them into Li Mu's hands, "I'll get the money back for you, keep it for yourself."

Someone originally wanted to take the money back, but he refused.

Thanks to those people who had the nerve to open that mouth!

Speaking of this, Uncle Hong became angry.

Li Mu looked at the copper plate in his hand, entered the room, and placed it on the table casually.

Uncle Hong said again at this moment: "By the way, when I came back just now, I saw a stranger at the head of the village and said he was looking for someone."

Li Mu, who was about to take the freshly picked herbs in his hand to the kitchen for processing, stopped. He turned his head to look at Uncle Hong, "Looking for someone?"

Li Mu's voice was a bit loud, even Zhong Xiuyuan in the back room noticed it.

Facing Li Mu's ruthless gaze, Uncle Hong was a little surprised, but he still said: "Yes, he is a stranger who has never seen him before. He said he came to the mountains to find someone, so I asked—"

Before Uncle Hong finished speaking, Li Mu threw the herb in his hand by the wall, turned around and ran towards the other side of the village. Li Mu's movements were quick, and he disappeared around the corner in the blink of an eye.

Uncle Hong wanted to call him to stop him, but he disappeared before he could speak.

"I haven't finished talking yet..." Uncle Hong took two steps to chase after him, but after thinking about it, he gave up. Anyway, this village is so big, Li Mu will come back by himself if he can't find anyone.

Zhong Xiuyuan, who was sitting on the bed leaning on the pillow, looked at the bright red wedding gown that he hadn't changed yet, and stared out of the window with his deep black eyes.

There was a wind in the main room, passing through the hall, picking up his broken hair and making him confused.

What kind of wonderful woman should be to make Li Mu run so fast and make him so impatient...

Zhong Xiuyuan finally recovered when there was a burst of pain from the wound on his foot.

He looked down, and found that he had twisted the Xipao near the wound and pinched it in his palm at some point, and the fabric that was not very good had been wrinkled.

Zhong Xiuyuan let go of the Xipao, and gently smoothed the fabric with his slender and fair hands.During his movements, the Xipao was smoothed, but as soon as he let go of his hands, the creases appeared again.

After trying twice and still having no effect, Zhong Xiuyuan took a deep breath and turned his head to look at the bright sunshine outside the window.

It was supposed to be the vibrant weather in March in Yangchun, but the air he smelled was full of sourness.

Li Mu didn't come back until Uncle Hong carried Yun'er back to his home to cook.

Uncle Hong lives diagonally across from Li Mu's house, not far away, and he can see the other's house even if he sits in the room.

Uncle Hong, who was busy in the kitchen, saw Li Mu come back. He wiped the water from his hands on the apron and walked out the door, walking towards the yard of Li Mu's house.

"I haven't finished talking to you, so you run away." Uncle Hong said.

"Uncle Hong." When Li Mu ran out, there was no one in the village, so he asked the people who lived in the village, and said that they had been gone for a long time.

"The person who came to look for you is someone from the government office in the town, so I know you are nervous." Uncle Hong was amused, but Li Mu looked quite calm, why was he so uncertain all of a sudden?

"People from the government office?" Li Mu was really surprised.

"It is said that you will go to the government office in a few days. It seems that you joined the army before." Seeing that Li Mu frowned when he heard the word "join the army", Uncle Hong quickly said: "Don't worry, I I have already asked for you, not to let you go back to serve as a soldier, it seems to say that something has been distributed from above."

Li Mu heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words, but at the same time a wave of disappointment also struck him.

He came back here to find someone, but now more than half a month has passed, but there is no news at all.

"Don't be in a hurry to find someone, you have to take your time. People come and go with a lot of fluidity these days, so you can't be in a hurry." Uncle Hong comforted.

Li Mu let out a long breath silently, and let out the frustration in his heart, "I know."

"Okay, let's go home and get something to eat, it's already noon." Uncle Hong waved his hand and walked towards his home.

In the yard of his house, Yun'er was sitting on a small stool, dazed by the sun, and she was dozing off at the moment, with her little head bouncing bit by bit.

Li Mu went to the corner to pick up the herbs he had dropped before, and went into the kitchen.

The food of poor families is naturally not as good as that of rich families, so most of them are rice, millet, wheat and other coarse grains with salt, or just pickles.Both rice and noodles are expensive, and there is little to eat.

Fortunately, Li Mu's craftsmanship is not bad, but the same food tastes different when compared with others. Yuner loves to eat his food, and Uncle Hong once praised it.

After cooking some food, Li Mu took out another half plate of pickles, and then went to the back room with three bowls.

After a simple meal in the house, Li Mu packed up his things and went to the kitchen, where he brought out the medicine he had prepared earlier.

There are two doses of the medicine, one for drinking and one for external application.

After passing the drinking bowl to Zhong Xiuyuan, Li Mu set up a stand in the yard and took out the quilt on the bed to dry.

The sun is warm in April, and the quilt after drying is also warm.The moisture in the deep mountain forest is heavy, and it is comfortable to fall asleep at night after being exposed to the sun.

After finishing these, when Li Mu entered the door again, he had already drank the whole bowl of black medicine that was handed to Zhong Xiuyuan at first.

Li Mu took the empty bowl and put it on the table, and came back with another stone plate of dark green and dark things. He sat down on the bed, "Take off your pants."

After drinking a whole bowl of bitter and astringent Chinese medicine in one go, Zhong Xiuyuan, who did not change his face, subconsciously raised his hand and grabbed his waistband after hearing Li Mu's words.

Li Mu lowered his head and stirred the smelly thing with a bamboo stick. After waiting for a while, without waiting for Zhong Xiuyuan's movement, he stretched out his hand towards Zhong Xiuyuan's waistband.

Zhong Xiuyuan raised his eyelashes coldly and trembled, his eyes widened and his face changed.

Think of him as an invincible and ever-victorious general——

"Take it off." Li Mu raised his eyes, black eyes like jade.

Zhong Xiuyuan tightened his grip on the waistband of his trousers, and added some strength.
