The worst is the next cousin

The idle afternoon sun shone on the ground, Mao Xiaofei crossed his hands on his knees, squinted at Mu Canshang, and then moved his eyes away from his expression.

"The two of us ran out from the barbarian's territory. The barbarian woman gave me medicine. That night, you planned to stop looking for me. Anyway, they thought I was you at the time. Change me up." Clothes, bring me, it was originally for me to pretend to be you and divert the danger, right? The former question, yes or no, the latter question, yes or no." Mao Xiaofei didn't look at Mu Shenshang, his heart was very calm.

Mu Canshang was silent for a long time before he said in a muffled voice: "Yes, yes. But I regret it..."

Before Mu Canshang finished speaking, he was interrupted by Mao Xiaofei waving his hand. Mao Xiaofei smiled calmly, "Just answer the question, no need to explain. I didn't want to settle accounts with you. Why did I crawl on your bed if I wanted to settle accounts with you?"

"So on the way back, at that time, you didn't like me yet, did you?"

"Hmm." Mu Canshang's voice was like a mosquito, very frustrated, but he didn't lie.

That morning, the sun was very good, the air was good, and a hundred birds came out of the forest.Except for the soreness left by a night of indulgence, Mao Xiaofei's whole mind was left with confusion.

"It's okay, I didn't like you at that time." He said generously.

"Brother Xiaofei..." Mu Canshang still looked very depressed, he lowered his eyes, not daring to look at Mao Xiaofei, for fear that he would see through his guilty conscience.This is not the only thing he feels guilty about, he doesn't regret it at all, if it wasn't for him that night, Mao Xiaofei would have had a harder time.

Mao Xiaofei didn't say anything, he wanted to tell Mu Canshang that the first person with this body was him.But suddenly, he didn't want to talk anymore, and felt that the time was wrong.

"Next question."

"Still asking?"

"I want to ask." Mao Xiaofei held Mu Canshang's hand and found that his hand was cold, he couldn't help frowning, and remembered another thing, "Did you drink the medicine at noon?"

"Not yet." Mu Canshang curled his lips, "Eat after answering."

"Will you still look for your relatives in the future?"

"I've been looking for it all these years, but there is no clue." Mu Canshang said sadly.

"I'll look for it with you in the future."

"I will also accompany you to visit your father-in-law and mother-in-law." Mu Canshang was in a better mood and said while holding Mao Xiaofei's hand tightly.

Mao Xiaofei ignored this, but felt a lot more relaxed.

"Then when I asked you if you planned to marry me, did you like me?" Mao Xiaofei was afraid that Mu Shenshang would not remember, so he smiled shamelessly, "That was the time you took me to drink, I was drunk, you And bullied me that time."

Mu Canshang obviously remembered and looked a little embarrassed.

Mu Canshang didn't answer for a long time, Mao Xiaofei naturally understood his answer.There was a heavy energy in my heart, but I was still smiling, very calm and breezy.

"I see, next question." This time he prolonged his tone, tapped his chin twice with his fingers, and said, "Then when did you really feel like me?" Seeing that Mu Shenshang still seemed embarrassed , Mao Xiaofei calmly said: "Otherwise, I will help you recall memories."

"No need." Mu Canshang with a pale face prevented him from dissecting those past moments one by one. In fact, he had been thinking about what he said to Kang Zihong when he was still in the military camp.At that time, he not only denied that he liked Mao Xiaofei, but also pretended that he wanted Mao Xiaofei to have a taste of being played with emotionally.But now Mu Canshang knows very clearly that he is no longer playing with Mao Xiaofei.

"What are you thinking?" Mao Xiaofei noticed that Mu Canshang's eyes became firmer, and dared to look at him.

"Thinking about your question, I really want to ask when I like you. I really can't answer it. But do you know when you shocked me and looked at you differently?"

Mao Xiaofei raised the corners of his lips with interest: "Is there such a time?"

"Yes." Mu Can said, "You were very special when you were in the barracks. There was no soldier who came here to raise chickens. No one wants to be the leader of the gang, unless you are a kind of soldier who is afraid of war and dare not go to the battlefield." Kill the enemy."

"I am."

"You're not, you don't want to fight your own country, but you didn't eat free food in the military camp. When you raised chickens, you put your heart into it."

"That's it, hey, let me say, then you will pay so much attention to me then? I'm just a soldier, you are a general, so pay attention to your soldiers, is this okay? Are you trying to trick your subordinates at any time?"

"I'm just thinking about you alone, and I haven't done it yet." Mu Canshang said depressedly.

Mao Xiaofei smiled.

"Then there is Fu Dong. I didn't expect you to raise a child. You are alone, raising a barbarian child. Actually, think about it, I'm not as good as your son."

"Then you will be my son from now on." Mao Xiaofei said with a smile.

"No, I'm your son's father." There is no compromise on this point. Mu Canshang couldn't help reaching out to hug Mao Xiaofei, but he was stared at, and withdrew his hand in embarrassment, and then said, "I can't say these things, what shocked me the most Yes, we encountered that big storm, you sent Shu Tong ashore, and came back. The best way to die in my life is to die in a battle in a horse leather shroud. I didn’t want anyone to die with me, but you called If you don't hit one, you will die with me." Mu Canshang's eyes flickered, he was a little excited and a little embarrassed, and lowered his head.

"Finished?"

"No, and later, you have been protecting me. I never thought that someone would protect me. On the battlefield, I will always be the one who rushes to the forefront, and I will always protect others. No matter what others say, My father was right when he said that I was not a general at all."

"Who are you?" Mao Xiaofei rubbed Mu Canshang's head, deliberately messed up his hair, and smoothed it out.

Mu Canshang smiled: "A general in a high position must at least know how to protect himself. I don't understand, I only know how to fight hard."

Mao Xiaofei paused.He remembered that the first time he saw Mu Canshang was when he was fished out of the river. If Mu Canshang hadn't met him at that time, he might really have died.There is also that pile of treasures, has King Qingxi not been able to find another person with high martial arts skills? Perhaps in the eyes of the King, Mu Canshang is just a handy weapon.Restricted by the Mu family, who is not his biological parents, Mu Canshang, who is used to fighting alone, may not be because he doesn't know how to employ people, but because he doesn't have many people he can really use.

"Are Tong Yi and Shi Yizhong your people?" Mao Xiaofei asked.

"Mr. Shi taught me the art of war, Tong Yi, taught me how to ride and shoot."

Noticing that Mu Canshang called them differently, Mao Xiaofei frowned suspiciously, which of course did not escape Mu Canshang's observation.

"Tongyi is loyal to my father, Mr. Shi, and regards me as his son."

In this way, Mao Xiaofei immediately understood that Shi Yizhong and Tong Yi had completely different attitudes towards Mu Canshang, and it seemed that it was not a difference in personality or personality.

"It means that I captured your heart once I resorted to being a hero to save the beauty?" Mao Xiaofei said with a deliberate smile.

"Not exactly, at least not at the time." The hesitation in Mu Shenshang's eyes seemed to clear away the clouds, and his eyes became clear. He looked at Mao Xiaofei intently, "Maybe I think you need my protection, so I have been following you , I have been with you for a long time, I regard you as mine, no one can hurt me."

"Is it the responsibility?"

"I don't know, you are a stranger from another country, I shouldn't have a sense of responsibility to you. But I know, when you are not in my sight, everything is wrong with me, it's not that I want to come to you, but I can't control my hands and feet, they are all coming to you."

Mao Xiaofei was a little moved, he never knew that Mu Canshang was so good at talking, so good at speaking.

"That time you drove me away, I..." Mu Canshang's mouth was dry, he pursed his lips, and said apologetically, "I was in a daze."

Mao Xiaofei didn't react for a while, but after remembering what Mu Canshang said, he showed embarrassment on his face and waved his hands: "I don't care about that for a long time."

"But I really want to do that. I have endured it for a long time, you have always been indifferent to me, I don't know what you are thinking, and you have no reaction when you say you like you, just like my love is not worth your glance. "

"I'm afraid of war." Mao Xiaofei took a deep breath, "All civilians are afraid of war."

"I know, but I can't accept you saying something inappropriate and erasing everything. Even if there is a war, I won't make things difficult for you, I will protect you, and I have the ability to protect you." Mu Shenshang was complicated Looking at Mao Xiaofei intently, he knew that Mao Xiaofei might not need his protection at all, and could protect himself.

"Well, it's because I didn't think carefully, I will..." Mao Xiaofei's throat was blocked astringently, and then he said: "One day I will tell you why I did that at that time."

"Can't we say it now?" Mu Canshang asked.

"I don't want you to look down on me now, you have to find a suitable time." Unknowingly, Mao Xiaofei's eyes turned reddish, and he seemed preoccupied.

Mu Canshang was no longer willing to ask, half of his heart was heat, and half was iceberg.

"Do you still want to ask?" Mu Canshang said hoarsely.

"Don't ask for now, it's time for you to take your medicine." Mao Xiaofei went out to bring medicine to Mu Shenshang almost on fire, his calmness at the beginning was gone.He wanted to protect Mu Canshang, and Mu Canshang wanted to protect him, but in the end, no one was able to protect anyone.Mao Xiaofei had never hated his mother-in-law so much in his life.

Ye Jintian didn't wake up until dark, Mao Xiaofei originally wanted to hand over Jinsu's relics to him, and he also had something to tell Ye Jintian about that letter.

But from the window, there was no movement in the house. A lamp was lit, the windows were all open, and the smell of spices permeated the entire yard.There is some bitterness in the clearness.

Shu Tong never came out.

When it was close to Haishi, the doctor and life master came out of his room.

At this time, Ah Ling was drying clothes in the yard, and happened to meet Mao Xiaofei, and called him to stop.

Mao Xiaofei was surprised, he knew A Ling was here, but he hadn't seen her yet.

Ah Ling was wearing a bright red dress, which belonged to a girl from Jielin. The skirt underneath was very big, like a blooming water lotus.The bright silver moonlight sprinkled on her face, making her skin white as jade.

"Finally see you, when shall we leave?"

Mao Xiaofei hesitated a little: "It's hard to say."

"What is there to say? I think the members of the Qinglong Gang listen to you, not to mention the Qingxi people. You are a life-long friendship. If you say you want to go on the road, who would dare to say no?"

A Ling came to the steps with the tub in her hand, she didn't care about getting her skirt dirty, she just sat down anywhere.

Mao Xiaofei had no choice but to sit down.

"There are two wounded in the team. Now it's not me who has the final say, but their injuries."

A Ling nodded knowingly: "Your brother is really hurt." Seeing that Mao Xiaofei didn't speak, A Ling patted him on the shoulder understandingly, "It's not your fault, don't blame yourself."

"I know." Mao Xiaofei didn't speak. In fact, he didn't know how to answer the conversation. When he came out of Mu Canshang's room, he was in a daze. Mu Shenshang should be trusted this time.Maybe it's because it didn't take long for the conversation to end, and people always think wildly at night.During the day he was fine, but at night he was a little worried about whether what Mu Canshang said came from his heart.

Mao Xiaofei knew that he should take this step, and he must take this step sooner or later, but he had a knot in his heart, and he had to untie it first.No one can help him, he can only do it himself.

"Do you miss your grandma?" Mao Xiaofei changed the subject.

"Well, she is not very clear-headed. I am afraid that others will not take good care of her. Your son is very good. My grandma is very happy to have him talking with my grandma. During the few days we did not leave, my grandma laughed more than she used to More than a year." The silver chain on Ah Ling's fingers gleamed and shattered like a bell.

"You are too courageous, I never thought that you would chase after me." Mao Xiaofei couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"I don't want to come!" Ah Ling's cheeks were slightly flushed, and she used the cold palms and backs of her hands to freeze her face repeatedly. After a long time, she said in a daze: "But no one can do anything about him, don't let him come, he Rolled off the bed several times, got angry and said that he would come by himself if no one came, who dared to let him come by himself, this is a last resort..."

This "he", Mao Xiaofei heard slowly, refers to Mu Canshang.
