"When others are angry, they use me to catch their evil spirits. I don't have the dignity of an emperor at all. I am still a wise emperor."
Li Mu muttered and walked into his Fengqiuhuang. Today, the Jingdong Market was full of scoundrels from Chang'an City. Which female family members dared to come to buy rouge. Therefore, Fengqiuhuang, which was always hot in the past, seemed to be closed today.
It seemed like it was closed, and there wasn't even a sparrow at the door.
It's not a bad thing. Xiaozhu, Xiaolan and the others can finally take a breath and have a rest. But after all, it's a business, so they can't take a complete rest. Xiaozhu was taking people to count the goods. When he saw Li Mu coming, he just said hello.
After a cry, Li Mu usually didn't show off at home, and Xiaozhu and others were all servants who followed him from the beginning, so they didn't have such big rules.
Now in Fengqiuhuang, when Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien are not here, they are the four maids in charge of the Hou Mansion. Originally, there was no distinction between high and low, but Xiaozhu is smarter after all. Most things are still handled by Xiaozhu.
Idea. There is no difference at all. The four maids got along well.
"Madam, you went into the city with me today. Didn't you come to the store?"
"He came and left again to visit the old lady."
"Oh." Li Mu responded and didn't ask further questions. Bai Qiaoqiao often went to meet with Mr. Sun, which was unfilial. She, the daughter-in-law, went much more often than his son. It's not like Li Mu didn't.
I went to visit Mrs. Sun, but every time I went, I felt very uncomfortable. Firstly, I felt uncomfortable that I was not the original Li Mu, and secondly, because Mrs. Sun remarried Tang Jian, when he went to the Tang family, he always felt that was not the case. Although the Tang family
No one dared to look down on him.
The saying that mother is more valuable than son is true both in ancient and modern times. Li Mu's current reputation and status have actually surpassed that of Tang Jian. Tang Jian loved the Sun family very much. Naturally, no one in the house dared to offend her. However,
, some things are beyond the reach of the powerful. Sun's background, knowledge, vision, etc. are all inferior. She can't talk to the ladies of equal status at all. They talk about poetry and poetry, but she
I don't understand it at all. On the contrary, I got along very well with some old ladies in the house.
This makes people look down upon. Although they dare not express it, their meaning can be revealed to some extent in their words. Mrs. Sun is also a person who has a good face. Over time, she will not interact with these ladies unless necessary.
Sitting in my house all day long is actually very lonely.
Bai Qiaoqiao went there a few more times, so that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law could talk about their past life in Mayi, which was considered as a sign of filial piety. Li Mu couldn't even talk about these things. He recently discovered that with the passage of time, the original
The remaining memories of Li Mu in his mind became increasingly blurry. Sometimes Bai Qiaoqiao mentioned something about his childhood, and he couldn't remember it. Fortunately, Bai Qiaoqiao never doubted him, otherwise something might have gone wrong.
.
Li Zhien still seldom gets a word in, but she is very smart. When she is with Sun, she always coaxes and supports her to make the old lady happy. But Bai Qiaoqiao doesn't need this, her belly is now a magic weapon
, the status of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was instantly reversed because of this belly, and now it was Mrs. Sun who was coaxing her.
Li Mu secretly wondered whether it was because of this that Bai Qiaoqiao had been going to Sun's place more and more recently.
"Is my couch still in the house?"
"Yes, your room has not been touched. When the madam and the second madam come over, they occasionally take a nap, and everything is the same as before."
"I'm going to take a nap. Call me in an hour."
Li Mu said something, pushed the door open and entered the house. As expected, just as Xiaozhu said, the furnishings in the house had not been touched at all. Li Mu took a blanket, fell on the couch, covered himself, and closed it gently.
eyes.
Suddenly, he heard a creak at the door. Li Mu was not yet asleep. When he heard the sound, he opened his eyes and saw it was Wang Ou. He quickly pulled back a corner of the blanket and motioned for her to come over.
Wang Ou came over, snuggled next to Li Mu, and leaned lightly on his shoulder. The recliner was already widened, and there was room for one person. Although the two of them were a bit crowded, they could not lie apart. Li Mu turned sideways.
, just right.
"Have you been drinking?" Li Mu smelled a little alcohol and frowned.
Wang Ou nodded and said: "The Prince of Hejian is toasting, so I have to drink a glass." She stretched out a finger and smiled cutely: "It's just one glass."
"I didn't expect your drinking capacity to be so light." Li Mu looked at Wang Ou's red face and couldn't help but said.
"I don't usually drink. When I do, I drink light wine. If you want to blame me, I have to blame my husband's three cups for being too strong for my taste."
Li Mu smiled and said, "When the flowers bloom, I will brew new wine for you. I'm sure you will like it."
"Yeah." Wang Ou looked at Li Mu's smiling face, and for some reason, she suddenly felt a sense of guilt in her heart. Perhaps it was because of the effect of alcohol, which amplified this feeling. She suddenly felt that she was a bad woman, very bad.
A very bad kind. He is many years older than Li Mu, but he is shameless and arouses his true feelings. However, he has many things to hide from him. He doesn't know anything, and he still smiles like this stupidly.
Wang Ou felt distressed for a while, raised his hand and smoothed Li Mu's frown, and said: "Husband, if there is an afterlife, I can only hope to be with you as my childhood sweetheart."
"Oops," Li Mu sighed: "Here we go again, here we go again, didn't we agree not to say such things? You are worried that I think you are old, and I am also worried that you think I am young, so I try my best to let you
You look more mature, don't you see? My husband has done so many things for you that a man of his age should not do. Do you know what this is called?"
Wang Ou shook his head gently, and Li Mu said seriously: "This is called overdraft in advance. I am eighteen years old and have done so many things. It is not my current ability, but my future ability. I will use my future ability now.
Now, I will be a loser from now on. If you don’t despise me as a loser, how about you accept me as a nanny?"
"That's not serious." Wang Ou rolled his eyes at him and couldn't help but smile. When Li Mu saw this, he also laughed happily and said, "Look, you are just too sad. You have food and clothing.
How can there be so many things to worry about? When I was in Mayi, in order to earn a few hundred coins so that I could get medicine for my mother, I became a Xiangyong. That kind of hard life is really sad."
"Husband, I only regret that I didn't know you at that time. If I had known you earlier, you wouldn't have to suffer so much."
"Ha!" Li Mu laughed and said, "I was like a piece of wood back then. I might not say a word a day. If you knew me, you wouldn't like me."
Wang Ou was about to argue when Li Mu said again: "Don't think so much about fate. It's strange. No matter when we meet, as long as we foresee it, it's irreplaceable fate. It's the most appropriate time. It's too early or too late."
, neither of us will fall in love.”
Wang Ou thought for a while in silence and nodded: "My husband always makes sense, but I can't explain it to you."
