Walking home, Li Mu looked at the table full of dishes, then looked at Liu Hanyan, and said in disbelief: "You made all of these?"
Wanwan swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said: "Of course, my lady is good at the hall and kitchen, can sing and dance, and is proficient in eighteen kinds of musical instruments. These dishes were all cooked by the lady just now, and they are delicious...
"
If you have nothing to do to show your courtesy, you will either commit adultery or steal. Liu Hanyan neither commits adultery nor steals, so naturally he wants something.
After a brief moment of astonishment, Li Mu understood the reason for her being so attentive.
He took out the folded beauty charm from his sleeve and handed it to Liu Hanyan.
After Liu Hanyan received it, a hint of joy appeared on his face and he immediately ran to the kitchen.
Li Mu was about to change out of his official uniform when he realized something and ran to the kitchen door, just in time to see Liu Hanyan pick up a bowl of water and drink it all.
Li Mu opened his mouth and said: "That's not how the beauty charm is used..."
Liu Hanyan had already put down the bowl and asked in surprise: "How to use it?"
"Fold the talisman and carry it close to your body..."
"vomit……"
…
The principle of action of the beauty charm is different from that of the calming charm. One is from the outside to the inside, and the other is from the inside to the outside.
The principles are different, and the ways of using talismans are also different.
The Calming Talisman works from the inside out and needs to be turned into talisman water to be swallowed. The Staying Talisman works from the outside to the inside. Just carry it close to your body and it will gather spiritual energy and nourish the body.
After Liu Hanyan vomited, he looked at Li Mu with a pale face and asked in a low voice: "Is there any more?"
Li Mu could only take out another pen and paper, draw a new beauty charm, fold it and hand it to her, saying: "This charm is effective for three days. After three days, I will draw a new one for you."
Liu Hanyan carefully placed the talisman close to his body, and then said with a smile: "Let's eat first. The food is almost cold. I don't have kitchen utensils at home, so I borrowed your kitchen..."
Li Mu picked up the chopsticks, picked up the first bite of food and put it into his mouth. He knew that Wanwan's evaluation of Liu Hanyan just now was not an exaggeration.
All Li Mu had to offer was a few barbecue sauces and a bowl of Yangchun noodles. At the moment, there were several dishes on the table, including meat and vegetables, and each dish had its own unique flavor.
Liu Hanyan looked up at him and asked: "I haven't cooked for a long time, so my skills are inevitably rusty. Are these meals acceptable?"
Li Mu said from the bottom of his heart: "Li Mu is ashamed of Miss Liu's cooking skills."
Generally speaking, a woman who is good at singing and dancing usually comes from a relatively high background, and it is very rare for her to have such cooking skills at the same time.
Liu Hanyan smiled slightly and said, "Wanwan is full of praise for your cooking skills."
"I can only cook a few bowls of noodles." Li Mu said modestly, took out the ten taels of silver he earned today, put it on the table in front of him, and said, "This is the medicine money for that day. Miss Liu, please
Take it."
Liu Hanyan did not refuse. After accepting the money, he said, "I'll ask Wanwan to send over the IOU later."
Debt-free, even though all his first pot of gold was used to pay off debts, if "Liao Zhai" can be recognized, even if he cannot become rich with one book, his future life will be much improved.
After dinner, Liu Hanyan went back first, while Wanwan stayed to help Li Mu clean up the dishes.
Li Mu is quite curious about Liu Hanyan. She has the nobility and coolness of a lady, but also the approachability of the girl next door. She sings a good song, cooks good dishes, and is a weak woman.
A little maid dares to venture into a strange place. This kind of courage and courage is not found in many men, and it is even rarer in women.
While washing the dishes together, Li Mu asked Wanwan, "Wanwan, where did you and your lady live before, and why did you come to Beijun?"
"I used to live in Zhongjun." Wanwan put the washed dishes aside and said, "Miss said that living in Zhongjun was too tiring. Food was expensive, houses were expensive, rouge and gouache were expensive, everything was expensive, so we moved here
It’s Beijun.”
Li Mu asked again: "Does your young lady have no family?"
Wanwan said: "Miss's family is me."
Li Mudao: "I mean, her parents, brothers and sisters..."
"No." Wan Wan shook her head and said, "When I was picked up by the young lady, the young lady was alone. Later, I heard from the owner of the shop that the young lady was sold into the music studio, and her family should have been long gone..."
Li Mu thought that Liu Hanyan should come from a wealthy family, but he didn't expect that she would have such an experience. No wonder she sang so well and was proficient in various musical instruments. Then she thought of something and looked at Wanwan in surprise, "You
Was it picked up by her?"
Wanwan stuck out her tongue in embarrassment and said: "When I was fleeing from famine, my parents thought I ate too much, so they left me on the road. It was the young lady who picked me up. If it hadn't been for the young lady, I would have been five years old.
Just starved to death..."
"and after?"
"Later, the lady sang and played for people on the stage, and I washed clothes for the sisters in the band, and slowly saved money. After I saved enough money to redeem the lady and open a shop, I came here..."
"Originally, there were many gentlemen who wanted to help the young lady redeem her life, but the young lady said that it is better to rely on yourself than to rely on others. You can't even rely on your parents and relatives, let alone those who are interested in her beauty. When she gets old and becomes unsightly, she will
Being kicked away..."
After listening to Wan Wan's words, Li Mu couldn't help but admire Liu Hanyan. Not all women have this kind of independence. Even in his era, women like Liu Hanyan are the benchmark for independent women in the new era.
.
As Wanwan was talking, her voice suddenly changed and she asked: "If Miss has that talisman, will she never grow old?"
After all, the Beauty Talisman is not a beauty charm, and its effectiveness has an upper limit. Li Mu said: "It's not that she will never grow old, but at least ten or twenty years later, she will still be the same as she is now."
Wanwan lowered her head, rubbed the corners of her clothes, and whispered: "Can you give me one of that talisman? I want to be like the lady. I, I can give you all my private money..."
How much private money can a little girl have? Li Mu smiled and said, "I'll draw a picture for you later. You'd better keep your private money for yourself to buy candied haws..."
The girl's eyes curled up and she said: "One hundred taels can buy a lot of candied haws..."
Li Mu was stunned for a moment, "How much?"
The girl said: "One hundred taels, I have saved it for a long time..."
…
Fortunately, the Zhuanyan Talisman was not a high-end talisman and it did not consume much mana. After Li Mu finished drawing it, he handed it to Wanwan and watched her leave happily, sighing inwardly.
As a police officer with only 500 yuan a month, he could never imagine how rich a rich person is. He only thought that Liu Hanyan was a rich woman, but he didn't expect that even the rich woman's maid was a rich woman...
If he has a hundred taels, and writes a piece of paper, he will be told that he has no main plot, and he will always be scolded for being short-tempered and short... If it is not forced by life, who would be willing to suffer this grievance?
Tomorrow is a day off, so there is no need to go to the Yamen or patrol. Li Mu got up early in the morning and practiced sword practice for half an hour. After having breakfast with Wan Wan, he left the house and walked straight out of the county town.
Su He said that day that she would give Zhao Yong something as a gift if he would go to the Bishui Bay after he was punished.
Although Li Mu didn't know what it was specifically, he didn't want to give away things given by others. His intuition told him that what Su He gave must be good things.
I thought that although he had already entered the world of cultivation, he was still far behind those famous disciples.
Others have masters to teach them how to practice, and they can get whatever resources they want from the sect. He relies on the cultivation of skills and gifts of equipment, so he must never let go of any opportunity for free prostitution.
Walk all the way out of the county town and walk straight along the official road. In half an hour, you will arrive at Bishui Bay.
Li Mu was walking alone on the road, not far from Bishui Bay, when he suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at a giant tree behind him, and said in a deep voice: "Who is there!"
Since the first soul was condensed, Li Mu's vigilance has greatly increased. Just now, he noticed a creepy aura from the direction of the giant tree.
He is barely considered a cultivator and will not feel like this for no reason.
The giant tree stood there without any movement.
Li Mu stared at the giant tree. After a while, a tall and thin figure peeled off the trunk and looked at Li Mu with an unexpected expression.
The figure was tall but extremely thin. When it was attached to the tree trunk, its skin and clothes were the same color as the tree trunk. At this moment, it was peeled off from the tree trunk, and its clothes turned into an ordinary green shirt, and its skin also changed from
The taupe color returned to its normal appearance...
