The Lady of the Farm in the Red Mansion

Xiuyan also wanted to see what kind of medicine was sold in Brother Mu's gourd, so she was dragged away by him obediently. She was dizzy, if the person leading her wasn't Brother Mu, she really suspected that this person was going to make her dizzy on purpose, and then plotting something wrong.

After wandering around for a long time, they finally stopped by the wall of Yise Shuimo Group. The white stone steps under the wall are hewn into the shape of passionflower flowers. There is a gate in the middle and three small doors on each side. All of them are finely carved with new styles, without vermilion powder coating. Looking left and right, you can see the snow-white wall, and the tiger skin stone underneath is textured, which is magnificent.

"What is this place?"

"This is my private house in Xicheng!" Li Mu's voice was clear.

"Private house?" In this era, it is illegal for officials to own private houses. Although most of the officials have private houses, they generally don't buy them in Beijing, and even if they do, they keep it secret. Brother Mu told her without even thinking about it. It can be seen that Brother Mu still trusts her, but even if he trusts her again, he still has something to hide from her, Xiuyan feels that she can't understand him more and more.

Seeing Xiuyan frowning, Li Mu said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen!"

Xiuyan thought that such a big house would cost tens of thousands of taels of silver at least, and brother Mu had only been an official for four years, how could he get so much money? Could it be that brother Mu was a corrupt official? deep.

Li Mu could easily see through Xiuyan's every frown, smile, and frown. Of course he knew what Xiuyan was thinking at the moment, but he didn't say anything. He didn't tell her about some things in order to better protect her.

He opened the door with the key and said softly, "Come in with me!"

Entering the door, I saw a green peak standing in front of me. Looking forward, I saw white stone caves, like ghosts or beasts, standing vertically and horizontally.

Mottled with moss on the top, vines cover the prints, and when entering the rock, one can see verdant trees and brilliant flowers, and a clear stream flows from the depths of the flowers and trees under the crevices of the rocks.

Li Mu said softly: "Since you don't want to go home, let's live here temporarily!"

Xiuyan stared wide-eyed, and her tone was aggressive: "Brother Mu, is that why you don't want to see me?"

"I'll come and see you when I'm free!" The words were as gentle as the spring breeze.

Hearing that he was coming to see her, and he didn't just leave her here and ignore her, Xiuyan was a little excited.

Could it be that Brother Mu is planning to hide his beauty in a golden house? He has always been shy when it comes to dealing with feelings since he was a child. The servants talked nonsense, so she was temporarily placed here.

Thinking of this, Yan couldn't restrain the joy in her heart, she bit her lip, and began to appreciate the surrounding scenery, but in front of her, she saw green streams pouring jade, stone steps piercing the clouds, white stones as fences, surrounded by ponds, stone bridges and three harbors, beast faces Spit, there is a pavilion on the bridge. She walked up to the pavilion quickly, sat on the railing, and looked sideways at the swimming fish below. There was no food crumbs, so she could only tear up the petals and throw them to them. These little red fish thought It's for food, and they swarmed up, making Xiuyan giggle.

Li Mu stood watching from the side, and there was a faint smile on Bing Cuang's face, like a ripple on the lake surface blown by the wind, soft and gentle, but fleeting, and people who don't like to smile are always extraordinarily beautiful once they smile.

Brother Mu is prettier than You Yu, Xiu Yan lays on the railing, her small face resting in her arms, just looking at him motionless.

"What, there's something on my face?" Li Mu saw Xiuyan looking at him like this, a trace of rouge appeared on his ice-cold face, he looked even better this way, Brother Mu is not only the number one young man in the capital Cai Jun, as long as he smiles, he is still the most beautiful man!

Xiuyan was stunned, and couldn't help saying something inexplicable: "Brother Mu, why do you look so good-looking!"

"Ah?" Li Mu's thin lips parted slightly, his eyes flashed with uncertainty, he thought he heard it wrong.

Xiuyan woke up, quickly covered her mouth and looked around, but she didn't look at him at all.

"Then you can stay here first, I still have some things to deal with in my house!" After saying that, he turned and left.

Seeing his leaving back, Xiuyan felt a burst of sadness welling up in her heart, as if this leaving was a farewell, she rushed up, hugged his waist from behind, and hugged him tightly.

He stood there again in a daze, like an ice sculpture, he couldn't give what she wanted, and his heart was like a knife!If this continues, he will collapse. He gently opened her hand without looking back, and softly said: "Be obedient!"

Xiuyan let go of her hand lightly, he didn't look back, he moved away and walked out, he didn't want to look back, but he was afraid of turning back, he was afraid of seeing her affectionate eyes, afraid of the pain like a knife twisting in his heart.

"Brother Mu!" She stopped him again.

"What?" He turned his head slightly, but didn't dare to look at her very hard.

"Are you just leaving me here alone?" Xiuyan put her hands on her hips, stomped her feet, her eyebrows stood on end, looking very angry!

Li Mu looked around and felt that the environment was very good, there seemed to be nothing wrong.

Seeing Li Mu's bewildered face, Xiuyan ran over and grabbed his arm and said, "You fool, there is nothing in this garden except the scenery, no food, do you plan to let me eat small fish raw, no bedding, don't tell me I sleep with my clothes on every day, and the garden is so big, I’m the only one, there’s not even a bird singing, do you want to scare me to death, or make me lonely, or do you plan to come to accompany me every night?"

When she said the last sentence, Xiuyan tilted her head and looked at him with an inquiring expression. How much she wished that the last sentence was true, but her intuition told her that it was impossible, but women are stupid. Knowing the result but still desperately want to try.

"I," Li Mu wanted to say, it was impossible between them, but he was afraid that speaking out would hurt her heart.

"Hey! I'm joking!" Xiuyan laughed.

Watching her smile, Li Mu's eyes flashed an imperceptible bitterness.

However, Xiuyan noticed this bit of bitterness, and she gently stroked his eyebrows, trying to soothe his depression.

Li Mu's eyelashes are so long and long, but they are flickering at this moment: "What's wrong with you?"

Xiuyan knew that Brother Mu was flustered at this moment, he was always so shy, in the past, as long as she teased him a little, he would fluster, he was always cute when he was flustered.

Xiuyan wanted to tease him again, but she couldn't bear it, she tied her hands behind her back, stood on tiptoe, swayed back and forth, and said, "It's nothing, I just want to touch you!"

"Don't be naughty in the future!" Li Mu stroked the eyebrows touched by Xiuyan, only feeling that there was fire there, as if it was about to burn, what a hot heart was hidden under his cold appearance.

If Xiuyan were smarter and able to see through his mind, what happened later would not happen, but everyone is an independent small universe, who can really understand and see through whom!Everything is predestined!

"Brother Mu, stay with me for at least one day before you leave! I need someone to help me carry the daily necessities! Curtains, curtains, sheets and bedding must be added, and there should be at least a thrush on the porch!"

"I was negligent!"

"Then why are you still standing there? Let's go!" Xiuyan took his arm and ran out.

"Wait a while!" Li Mu said.

"What's the matter, are you sorry?"

"Lock the door!" Li Mu pointed to the door.

Xiuyan smiled, stood under the white stone steps, watched him lock the door, and then went to take his arm.

Li Mu stared blankly at the held arm.

Xiuyan thought, there are people coming and going on the street, Brother Mu is probably afraid of affecting his reputation, so he can only let go of his arm and walk in front of him bouncing around.
