beauty, smile

It was full of enthusiasm. When I saw the two of them coming back, they were still greeting enthusiastically, "Hurry up, put down the things, and let's have a good meal. Watermark advertisement test watermark advertisement test"

On weekdays, I usually eat in the kitchen. If I eat in the lobby like this, it is usually on important occasions, or when there are many dishes.

But at this time, the son came back, and it was reasonable to make such a move.

Li Mingxuan also happened to come out at this time, with dishes in his hands and his sleeves rolled up high, as the saying goes, a gentleman stays away from the kitchen, but Li Mingxuan's appearance clearly broke this point.

Even if he knew that this person was a bandit, he had to admit that he had a kind of simple and honest feeling when he laughed, and he couldn't see the things he did in private from the surface.

When he put down the dishes, he smiled, "There's nothing delicious, let's make do with it first, and let's have a good meal when we're thirty."

What he said was not modest. After all, there was only a little bit of chicken left over from this morning on the table, as well as a few vegetables grown in Granny Li's yard, and there was even a small plate of pickles on the side.

Although it is just a simple dish, there are many dishes for ordinary people, and the simple dish also exudes an attractive fragrance at this time,

"Xuan'er also stayed in Zuihonglou for a short time when she didn't take the exam for scholar. Although she is not as good as the chef there, she has nothing to say." Granny Li's face was a little proud, and she didn't feel that she was a student at all. It's unruly for a son to cook.

Li Mingxuan did the same. After Jun Yuling came in, he took what was in her hands, and locked the old hen into the small courtyard at the other end before returning.

When I came back, I happened to hear what Granny Li said, and scratched his head again for the last sentence. He seemed to want to say something, but seeing the expression on his mother's face, he took it back and said nothing. Bring mother to the table.

When he was officially seated, Jun Yuling took a look at Jun Wuhua, but the man didn't seem to be worried at all, picked up the chopsticks and put the food into his mouth under the greeting of the other party.

She was very gentle when she ate, but at this moment, Jun Yuling could see a little surprise in her eyes. When she raised her head, Jun Wuhua said with a bit of appreciation, "This craftsmanship is absolutely incredible. Ordinarily, if you open a small restaurant by yourself, the business will definitely be very good."

As if he didn't expect Jun Wuhua to say such a thing, Li Mingxuan over there was stunned for a moment, and then his face was a little excited, "Does Miss Jun really think so?"

Jun Wuhua nodded, and the expression on his face became a little more serious, "There is no joke."

But at this moment, Granny Li interrupted them again, "Miss Jun, what are you talking about, just being a cook, how can it compare to being a high official in the imperial examination?"

As if a little unhappy, the smile on Granny Li's face disappeared, and she added a piece of meat to her son, and the smile on Granny Li's face eased slightly, "Mingxuan, eat more, be careful Reading, you can’t live up to the painstaking efforts of your deceased father..."

Li Mingxuan's face flushed, he opened his mouth, and finally muffled, "I see, mother..."

Taking every move of the opposite party under his eyes, Jun Wuhua seemed to have discovered something, stopped talking, and gave Jun Yuling a small pinch of cabbage, the originally happy atmosphere seemed to fade away because of this little episode a lot.

When he went into the kitchen to get hot water after dinner, Li Mingxuan was squatting at the place where Jun Yuling had boiled medicine for Granny Li before, fanning the fire calmly with a fan. When he saw the two of them, he said, "This I've already heated up the water, you two girls, you can take a bath first."

When Jun Yuling nodded, Jun Wuhua walked over and seemed a little puzzled by his actions at the dinner table, "Mr. Li, can you tell me what you really think in your heart?"

The fanning hand paused for a moment, and today it continued for a few seconds, "I don't understand what Miss Jun is talking about."

"Then I can only open the skylight and speak the truth." Kneeling down, Jun Wuhua looked straight into Li Mingxuan's eyes, narrowing his long and narrow peach eyes slightly, with a bit of narrowness in his eyes, "One more A month ago, you also robbed my whole body of silver taels, do you still remember this?"

"You..." Li Mingxuan stood up, and immediately put on a defensive posture, but then thought that this was his home, and took a step back slightly, taking a less dangerous posture.

Guessing what he wanted to express, Jun Wuhua didn't hang on to him, and explained directly, "We didn't have any malicious intentions, and it was purely accidental that we came here, but I don't know the scholar your mother-in-law said, why? In front of us is a bandit leader."

When talking about this, Jun Yuling came up and looked at Li Mingxuan in disbelief, but after being bored for a long time, he didn't know what to say, so he could only turn his eyes to Jun Wuhua.

Keeping the squatting posture still, Jun Wuhua picked up the fan that Li Mingxuan threw down just now, pulled Jun Yuling down, handed the fan to her in her bewilderment, and patted her head. Wu Hua said, "Continue with the work you've been doing for the past few days, decocting the medicine well."

Jun Yuling: "..."

Standing up, Jun Wuhua patted her skirt, "I have already said that we have no malicious intentions, but I just know why you cheated Granny Li? If you don't want to go to the imperial examination, you can directly explain why you did such a thing Come?"

"You said it so simply. Do you know my difficulties?" Already a little angry, Li Mingxuan spoke a little louder.

But Jun Wuhua just frowned, "If you don't tell me, how would I know your difficulties, could it be that I'm a roundworm in your stomach?"

"If you can tell your reason, we might be able to help you." Fanning the wind there aggrievedly, the little princess's voice was a little muffled inside, but the movements of her hands But he didn't dare to stop.

Probably no one had ever mentioned such words to him. Li Mingxuan was actually a little moved in it, but it was just a few words, and it was impossible to say trust.

Jun Wuhua looked at him, thought for a long time, and finally said something like this, "I was taken back to the mountain by my master since I was a child. The master is a person with strong martial arts. He taught me martial arts at the beginning. , he is my benefactor. I think I should accept whatever he gives me.

But in fact, I don't like martial arts. I prefer medicinal materials and other things from the mountains, but I never said it. I was afraid that if I told the master, he would be disappointed, so I persisted for a long time.

But I was not happy, and the master didn't know when he discovered it, so he asked me, what exactly do you want to do?

I told the master that when I only wanted to grow medicine, I was afraid that the master would be disappointed, but it was different from what I imagined. The master brought me many books about medicinal materials and gave me the whole mountain to take care of. "

Having said that, Jun Wuhua turned his gaze to Li Mingxuan again, as if he was talking to him, but also as if he was saying to his former self, "If you don't tell what's in your heart, no one can guess what you think. What exactly is it, maybe if you tell your mother what is in your heart, there will be a different result."

Although there was a little bit of emotion, it was just emotion. Li Mingxuan said, "You also heard it today. How could it be so easy? It's not like you haven't seen my mother's attitude."

"But no matter what? You are also her son. She has been looking forward to your return day and night. She probably thinks that you like to study and have never asked her for anything, so she is naturally thinking about things." Everything has been arranged for you, if you tell me, won't you feel better?"

Seeing that he didn't respond for a while, Jun Yuling, who was fanning the wind beside him, also looked over and said sincerely, "It's really good. I also thought that I didn't like piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so I begged my father... My father let me practice martial arts, and then I will be what I am today."

The voices of the two of them were not loud, just like ordinary voices talking with friends, but what they said pierced the deepest part of Li Mingxuan's heart.

The hanging hands trembled slightly, Li Mingxuan's eyes turned red, and it took him a long time to say a word, "But I... can't do it anymore."

The Li family used to be all scholars, but something went wrong in his grandfather's generation. Li Mingxuan's grandfather's favorite thing was cooking, being a cook, not a scholar who only knew how to live.

Later, Li Mingxuan's father inherited his grandfather's hobbies and spent all day with pots and pans, and the task of reading and writing fell to Li Mingxuan.watermark ad test watermark ad test

Maybe it's because the young Li Mingxuan has shouldered too many burdens from his parents.

Hope, so I have been enduring it all the time. It can be said that in the third year after his father passed away, when he had no money to go to private school and had to go to the tavern to help, it was the time he was happiest on the contrary.

It's just that there is not much time to stay, and then it is what the mother asks.

It was only after obtaining the honor of a scholar that Li Mingxuan felt that this was really not what he wanted to do.

When the words came to this point, Jun Wuhua and Jun Yuling had already fully understood.Your mother-in-law put all her life's expectations on her son
