smile to heart

==============================

After spring, the mountainside is green.The singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers, and the flying of bees and butterflies are signs of the recovery of all things.

Qi Zhong came back from a walk, waving a folding fan that he bought for himself a few days ago when he went down the mountain with Mu Yun to go to the market.

Near noon, the warm sun in early spring is already bright and warm.He walked into the courtyard and looked around, but he didn't see Mu Yun's figure. He was a little puzzled, so he stood alone among the fallen flowers, looked up, and saw a pair of green swallows flying in the breeze, extremely loving.

Qi finally turned around and walked out of the kitchen from the Baihua trail.Sure enough, under the shade of the tree criss-crossed by the sun, there was a jade shadow sitting quietly at the stone table under the tree, picking vegetables with lowered eyebrows meticulously.Thin and white fingers kept shuttling among the vegetable leaves, picking out a lot of vegetables and putting them aside.

Qi Zhong was so playful, he put away his folding fan, took advantage of people's unpreparedness, and sneaked up to Mu Yun's side, intending to play tricks on him.

He gently moved the tip of the fan to Mu Yun's chin, provocatively provoking it, and said with a smile on his face: "Hey~ what a handsome son, come on, give me a smile..."

Mu Yun frowned slightly, his eyes slowly raised, and he looked at him, gradually revealing the corners of his lips, so that Qi Zhong almost couldn't hold back and wanted to laugh, when he was distracted, he was immediately folded into the opponent's arms backwards by a pair of big hands In, unable to move.

"Hey you..."

Mu Yun skillfully grabbed the folding fan with one hand, spread it out easily, fanned the wind slowly, ignoring Qi Zhong's astonishment, and said to himself: "It's against you."

"Ah? Why didn't you follow my script? At this moment, you should have told me not to make trouble...give me back the fan!" Qi Zhong hummed dissatisfied, and wanted to take the fan. This time, Mu Yun deliberately refused to let him, With a backhand force, the fan spun from the palm of the hand to the back of the hand, making him miss the air.

"As cunning as you are, even if I tell you not to make trouble, you will still make trouble. I am used to this kind of drama." Mu Yun replied lightly.

Qi Zhong was so ashamed and indignant at what he said, he moved around in his arms, struggled to get up, put his hands on his hips and said, "Huh! If you don't want to cooperate with me, just say so. If you don't play with me, I'll find someone else..."

"Who are you looking for?" Mu Yun's tone turned cold.

Qi Zhong smirked and dragged his tone: "Looking for... Who else can I look for? Keep looking for you! If you can't do it once, then two, three times, anyway, don't you say that you are used to being teased by me? Try a few more times, see Do you still want to accompany me to play the storybook!"

"You! Hey, I really can't do anything about you..." Mu Yun had nothing to do with his natural rogue temper, so he could only sigh.

Qi Zhong giggled, knowing that he couldn't play too much, stepped forward again, and said with an apologetic smile: "Okay, okay, I'll pick the vegetables for you."

Mu Yun saw through his tricks of coaxing people, he was clumsy and didn't know it, but he was very useful and didn't expose it, and said lightly: "You didn't pick the vegetables like that, and you picked all the edible ones like this!"

Qi Zhong was taken aback when he heard it, cut it, secretly learned the method demonstrated by Mu Yun, and only then did he pick it decently.

The two of them spent this leisurely morning time together, and they were in a good mood. During this period, Qi Zhong started to talk boringly again: "Hey, let me tell you, I went fishing at the bottom of the mountain yesterday, and when I came back, I was blocked by a group of people again. ..."

Mu Yun paused with both fingers, his face was slightly cold, and he asked seriously: "What's going on? Why are they blocking you? Did you go to the casino?"

"Ouch! Where are you going? It's outrageous." Qi Zhong couldn't laugh or cry for his seriousness. It turned out that he was so idle that he was labeled a gambler by the other party. He said angrily, "I said yes Going fishing, how could it be possible to enter the gambling house? The people blocking me are naturally those villagers at the foot of Lanshan..."

Mu Yun relaxed and felt even more strange. He raised his eyes and looked at him, pretending to be harsh: "Next time if you don't finish your sentence at once, you will be fined for not eating three meals at once..."

"Ah? Are you willing? Why don't you let me eat three meals at once... Hey, wait, Mu Yun, you are really devious, who would eat all the meals for the day in one meal? What kind of punishment is this, I almost believed in your evil!"

Qi Zhong gritted his teeth and fell for the other party's trick. Looking at the other party's calm face, he loved and hated him for a moment.

Mu Yun replied with a light smile: "Okay, let's get down to business, tell the reasons why those villagers blocked you, and if there is a conflict, I will mediate for you."

"No! I'm so obedient and honest, what bad things can I do? In fact, the reason why they stopped me was because they wanted to give us all kinds of fruits and vegetables, whole grains... and a lot of weird things. I said no, but they preferred Here, I refused for a long time, and finally, they secretly stuffed the vegetables into the chaimen behind our eaves, in order not to waste them, I had to pick them all back..."

"Huh? Didn't you tell me yesterday that you bought those dishes?" After hearing the reason, Mu Yun was surprised to be cheated.

Qi Zhong scratched his head in embarrassment, and said falteringly: "I bought it... because they didn't give it away for free, I, I have already agreed to their request."

Mu Yun felt a little uneasy, and asked, "What request?"

Qi Zhong raised his head weakly, not daring to look him in the eyes, and murmured: "I don't know where they got the news, saying that there is a teacher living on this mountainside, who is knowledgeable, talented and beautiful...so I want to ask me to invite you to come. In the broken thatched hut at the foot of the mountain, they teach their dolls to read and write, and get fame..."

"How do you know they're talking about me?"

"It's... it's not that you go deep and simple, mysterious, and arouse people's speculation. They fooled all the woodcutters and passers-by who passed by this mountainside. They went down the mountain to 'spread falsehoods', saying that you are some kind of master and retreat here. When the villagers heard this, they all hoped that their son would become a dragon, so they decided to find something for us to do..." Qi Zhong pretended to be sad and raised his forehead, and took a peek at Mu Yun with a calm expression, not out of his heart.

"So... you readily agreed for me?"

"That's right! Ah... No, I hesitated for a long time, but they are too annoying and give too much... I think that the folks in my hometown are enthusiastic and honest people, so they shouldn't have any bad intentions. ..."

Mu Yun closed his eyes: "For one or two baskets of fruits and vegetables, you sold your husband? So I'm worth this little money in your heart?"

"Ah! No, you misunderstood, I agreed because of you." Qi Zhong panicked, explaining hastily, but didn't notice Mu Yun's smothered smile under the superb acting skills.

Mu Yunzhen looked at him first, and asked lightly, "For me?"

I want to hear what's on your mind?He pondered with great interest, earnestly waiting for Qi Zhong's reply.

"I, I saw that you were idle at home. Apart from writing and painting all day long, playing the piano and composing poems, and tending flowers, plants and fruit trees, it seemed very boring... I was afraid that you would get sick from boredom, so I found this job for you. I I just noticed that when you heard the news, your eyes were bright...doesn't it mean that you expressly agreed?"

"Is there?" Mu Yun asked back with a smile, "You are not me, how do you know how I feel?"

"I...then it's okay for me to ask? Tell me, do you feel idle and boring every day?" Qi Zhong asked boldly, with a naive and cute face.

Mu Yun couldn't help laughing, and said slowly: "I won't be idle with you. I won't be idle for ten or a hundred years."

"Ah..." Qi finally turned his face away in embarrassment, moved and regretted.

Mu Yun picked up the vegetable basket, stood up and said, "But since you promised the villagers, you must keep your word. From now on, you will be busy..."

Qi Zhong was overjoyed, and followed him closely: "So, do you agree? After that, you teach, and I'll help you ring the bell after class... And wow, isn't there a jujube tree in our courtyard? When the Mid-Autumn Festival comes, I can also ask those children to help us pick dates to eat..."

The rambling words depicted an unformed blueprint, and Mu Yun knew that he had long expected this matter after listening to him chirping and adding, and today's promise was really smooth sailing.

"Haha... Do you think it will be very lively under our knees in the future? Actually, it doesn't matter if you are busy or free, right? Anyway, we are together..."

"Ah."
