After all, Chen Mu is just a junior, so it's okay to say it to Liu Qing, but if he said it to Liu's father, it would be inappropriate.
Liu Si was also tugging on Chen Mu's sleeves, but Chen Mu pretended not to know and still quietly confronted Liu's father.
Chen Mu came here today for one purpose, which was to ask Liu Si to have a good meal at home. As for whether the Liu family and his son were doing it voluntarily or under force, he had no control over it.
Finally, after scolding the country people for not knowing their manners, the old man came back.
This meal was eaten in silence, with a dull look on his face, but Chen Mu was enjoying himself as he continued to eat one bowl after another with chopsticks.
However, Liu Jingtang was never able to serve the table from beginning to end. He kept sitting on the threshold, like a watchdog, looking at each other from time to time and smiling innocently at himself.
After all, he was playing the role of a servant, and I was afraid that he would have to finish eating before it would be his turn.
He looked like an honest and cheerful young man, but somehow... Chen Mu always felt that something was wrong. As for what was wrong, he couldn't put his finger on it.
After the meal was over, the Liu family's father and son left the table in a hurry, with disgusted looks on their faces, as if they were about to catch the plague after staying for too long.
"I didn't expect my brother-in-law to be so powerful. He summoned my eldest brother and Uncle Liu to the table with just a few words."
"I have seen it."
"Brother-in-law has wisdom in his head. It would be great if I could be as powerful as brother-in-law in the future."
Liu Jingtang took some leftovers and put them into his mouth while he kept talking. Almost nine out of ten sentences were about praising Chen Mu for his wit and intelligence.
As for Chen Mu, he leaned in front of the door frame and stared at this simple young man with a smile.
Liu Si rolled up her sleeves, wiped Liu Jingtang's mouth, and then said with a concerned look on her face: "I am seventeen years old this year. I am an adult. I can't spend my whole life hoeing grass in the fields. Why don't I... follow my sister?"
, there is no shortage of food for you at home."
Hearing this, Liu Jingtang frowned immediately: "I... I have thought about it too, but Uncle Liu and Aunt Zimen can't do the work in the fields. Sister, if I don't leave... they won't be hungry."
After saying that, Liu Jingtang lowered his head, his expression seemed to be one of sadness and longing.
When Liu Si saw this young face, she immediately felt distressed: "What a sensible child, the head of the family..."
"Okay, okay, don't look at me pitifully, I will solve it."
This kind of thing is easy to solve, but there is only one way, and that is to get money. It is not possible to change someone with just a little money.
Thinking about Chen Mu made her heart ache, but now that Liu Si had spoken, she couldn't refuse.
It is customary to go home for a reunion dinner on Tianzhu Festival and not go home until around the afternoon.
Although Mrs. Liu Lin didn't dislike Chen Mu and the two, her mind seemed a little dazed. She sat in the main room for half an hour and didn't talk much. As for the Liu family and his son, he didn't know where they were.
The whole room was very deserted. After thinking about it, Liu Si took Chen Mu to wander around the village.
Everyone has a habit, that is, nostalgia. Young people reminisce about their childhood, and middle-aged people reminisce about their youth. Liu Si is the same.
We walked straight up the village road, and then took Chen Mu up the mountain.
I heard from her that there is a mountain god in the mountain and a mountain temple on the top of the mountain. Whenever she fell ill when she was a child, her mother would come to the temple to burn incense and pray. The illness would be cured the next day, which was very effective.
Liu Si mainly felt that after having sex with her so many times but her stomach didn't move at all, she might have to ask the mountain god to give her a child.
Of course, as a time traveler, Chen Mu knew that he had perfectly avoided Liu Si's dangerous period almost every time. If he picked a good day and worked hard, it should bear fruit.
But now is the time to start a family, and Chen Mu doesn't want children.
It's not really a temple. I only saw a stone fox sculpture enshrined in a cave on the mountain wall. Most of the earthly immortal temples in mountain villages are like this. They enshrine the spirits of the mountains, not any gods.
Chen Mu has no interest in worshiping him. Life is in his hands, and he can win the world. There may be some luck in this world, but most of it has to be achieved by oneself.
However, during the interval when Liu Si was kneeling on the ground, Chen Mu looked down the mountain unintentionally, and suddenly found a thick smoke billowing from the mountain col not far away.
"Daughter-in-law, is there a fire in that place?"
The smoke is gray-black, definitely not cooking smoke. It has not rained for several days. In ancient times, if there was a fire in the mountains, the consequences would be disastrous.
"oops!"
Liu Si screamed in surprise, and the next moment he ran down the mountain quickly. After all, in ancient times, if a mountain fire broke out if it was not dealt with in time, all the houses in the surrounding mountains and forests would probably not be able to escape.
The distance is not far, only about a mile's walk from left to right, but the mountain road is too rugged, so it took nearly half an hour to get close.
However, during this time period, Chen Mu found that the smoke showed no sign of expanding at all, and had the tendency to dissipate from time to time.
When Chen Mu stepped up the slope and took a look, he realized that the cause of the smoke was not a mountain fire, but a kiln.
The shape is very strange, it is different from an ordinary kiln, it is like a dragon or a snake, and it is in the shape of a long strip.
I remember seeing the same ruins in Zhejiang in my previous life. The locals called it the Dragon Kiln, which was a kiln specialized in firing porcelain.
Compared with other porcelain kilns, the Dragon Kiln has multiple chambers inside, so more porcelain can be fired at one time.
Chen Mu felt happy when he saw this thing. After all, the porcelain kiln was very delicate and not something that ordinary people could build.
Some time ago, I was deliberately looking for craftsmen to repair porcelain kilns. From the looks of it, I am really lucky.
In ancient times, the highest generation temperature was found in this kind of porcelain kiln, which was about more than 1,400 degrees.
In his previous life, Chen Mu started studying in a social high school after graduating from junior high school, but because he started to engage in some gloomy careers, he had no choice but to study chemistry on his own.
He could not be said to be proficient, but Chen Mu had a very deep memory of the refining and synthesis of most substances, but the refining of many substances required extremely high temperatures.
Chen Mu has always wanted to forge something based on his past life memories. The raw materials are almost available in the world, but they must be tempered in this kind of calcining kiln.
The dragon kiln was built on the hillside, and right in front of the kiln door, there was a shirtless man sitting there eating dry food.
This person is short in stature, but his upper body is covered with muscles. He has a bronze complexion, but he has a strong and sturdy beauty unique to the Chinese people. Only his left eye seems to be blind, covered with a black scarf.
"Isn't this...brother Xiahou?"
But at this moment, Liu Si suddenly said this.
"Do you know this person?"
Liu Si nodded: "I used to play with us a lot when I was a kid, but eight years ago I joined the army to fight against the Tatars, so I almost didn't recognize him."
After listening to Liu Si's explanation, I realized that this person's family has been making porcelain and blacksmithing in the village for generations.
At that moment, Chen Mu walked down the hillside alone.
"Brother, the kiln is well built." Before he came closer, Chen Mu shouted loudly.
Xia Houcai ate half of the bun, and when he saw the visitor, he asked, "Are you buying a porcelain vase?"
