Chapter 21: Counterattack
It's the beginning of winter in a blink of an eye, and the sky is getting colder and colder! The cold wind was blowing outside the house, and there was a charcoal fire burning in the house, Mu Zhimo covered a moon-blue embroidered blanket and leaned on the couch, holding a thread-bound "Out of Yao Sutra" in his hand to see the rise, and from time to time there were a few words of epiphany, and Qi Yun, who was sitting on the chair next to him, twitched the corners of his mouth.

"Reading can't stop the meeting!" Qi Yun glanced at Mu Zhimo with disgust and changed his posture.
"You think everyone is like you, like a little old man of seven or eight years old!" Mu Zhimo removed the book and ridiculed him, put down the book and shoe, walked to the charcoal fire, pulled the charcoal ash a few times with tongs, scavenged a roasted sweet potato from it, wrapped it in a handkerchief, and slipped it to the table.
The white and slender fingers broke open the ripe skin, and a fragrant white smoke burst out, and the hooker couldn't help but sniff.
"Do you want to eat it?" As he spoke, he deliberately gave Qi Yun a look and blew lightly on the sweet potato, "I know, an elegant and noble child like you wouldn't eat these foods, right?" As he spoke, he raised the handkerchief wrapped in sweet potatoes, and Qi Yun, who was looking at the dust, gritted his teeth with hatred.
Mu Zhimo peeled the sweet potato, and before he could take a bite, a gust of wind blew next to him, and his hands were empty.
"I'll taste it for you! The food baked by an ugly woman is probably not very good! Qi Yun casually sat on a high chair in the distance and laughed at Mu Zhimo.
Mama Liu and Liu Ying were sitting on a small stool outside, and quietly looked up, but they were smiling helplessly.
Qi Yun got up early in the morning and practiced sword in the backyard for half an hour, and then went into the house to have breakfast and read a book here, and Mama Liu couldn't say anything to let her go.
Before dinner in Molian Courtyard that day, the old lady specially instructed Mu Zhimo to take Qi Yun to go and have dinner happily. After Qi Yun came, Xuefuyuan's life improved a lot, and no one in the house dared to say much, so Mama Liu could only pretend not to see it.
When Qi Yun's matter returned home, Mu Zhimo didn't let people mention it again, Mama Liu was old, and there were some things that she was not suitable to know.
From the day Shui Rou entered the mansion and was carried to Aunt Shui, the topic of the entire house revolved around Aunt Shui, and no one paid attention to Mu Zhimo for a while, and she was very idle for a few days.
Seeing that there are sweet potatoes in the house, the winter stove is full of interest in teasing Qi Yun, the stove is too small, only one can be baked at a time, such a noise will be staged every day, each has its own winners and losers.
Jinping taught the new little maids the rules outside the hospital, and the five maids and two mothers-in-law were arranged by the old lady herself.
There was a knock outside the courtyard, and Jinping motioned for a little maid to go out and open the door.
"Say hello to Mama Yan!" The little maid looked at the visitor outside the door and saluted.
Mama Yan nodded, and then took a few maids into the courtyard and walked towards the main house.
Liuying invited Mama Yan to be safe and served tea, and stood behind Mu Zhimo in a regular manner.
"I don't know if Mama Yan came over suddenly, but my mother has something to order?" Mu Zhimo was the first to speak. In the past few days, Liu said that her illness had spared them from saying hello in the morning, but she hadn't gone out for a few days.
"Little Master Qi Yun lives with you, and Madame has suddenly felt cold these days, but she is sluggish! Madame ordered me to come over and take a look, and by the way, see what is missing in the yard, and Madame can make up for it for you! Mama Yan looked at Qi Yun who was sitting on the chair and said softly.
Mu Zhimo took a sip of tea lightly, "It's hard work, my mother is still thinking about us when she is sick, I miss it very much!" ”
"This is also what a slave should do, Madame hasn't seen the eldest lady for a few days, and she misses it so much, so she ordered me to take you over to have a look."
"Look at what Mama said, my sin! I didn't think about going to my mother's bed to do my filial piety, but let my mother remember it! I'll follow you to visit your mother!" Mu Zhimo said with a look of shame, stood up and began to tell Jinping to clean up.
Mu Zhimo, who was waiting for Mama Yan to clean up, was speechless for a while, so she sat on the chair and looked at Qi Yun, Qi Yun closed her eyes with a profound look, but she couldn't make up her mind.
Putting on the cloak, Mu Zhimo followed Mama Yan to Madame's courtyard.
At this time, Liu was lying on the couch listening to the maid sent by Grandma Sun to return to the pear orchard, and when he heard the news from the outer courtyard, he ordered the maid to go down.
Mu Zhimo slowly walked into the house and came close to greet the Liu family, "Say hello to my mother, my mother's body is very good?" ”
"I know that you are a filial person, my illness is really thanks to Dr. Li, and I feel much better in a few days!" Liu Shi said gently,
"That's really a good thank you to Dr. Li, who reduced my mother's pain and is also a blessing for our children." Mu Zhimo bowed his head and replied.
This Yan Mama called her over today, and Mu Zhimo felt a little strange, so she spoke carefully.
But Liu Yun would not have the patience to wait for Mu Zhimo to give her a sloppy look, and said with a smile: "This is also a coincidence, Aunt Shui praised your maid Shui Ling a few days ago, and Doctor Li begged me for his nephew to ask for a favor, this matter should not have asked you a girl's family, but I have followed you since I was a child in Jinping, and the relationship between master and servant is not ordinary, I just want to ask you what you mean!" ”
Aunt Shui praised Jinping Mu Zhimo knew about it, and because Jinping happened to pass by in the courtyard to help her, she drove away the vicious dog that suddenly rushed out of nowhere.
Mu Zhimo was embarrassed and said: "I can't do anything about this, it's better for my mother to pay attention, it's just that Jinping is still too young, I'm afraid ......"
"It's okay if you're too young, and it's only a matter of raising it for two years!" Liu's tone has been settled, a maid, and her grandmother asked her opinion to look up to her.
"It's all up to my mother." Mu Zhimo replied in a low voice.
Liu Yun praised Mu Zhimo a few more words before letting her leave.
Mu Zhimo went back to the courtyard and didn't tell Jinping about it, but she wrote a letter after everyone fell asleep at night, and asked Liuying to quietly take it to the backyard, put it under the root of the old tree next to the courtyard wall, and press it with a stone.
The next morning, before Mu Zhimo woke up, he heard Liu Ying hurriedly running in, "Miss, something happened!" ”
Mu Zhimo wrapped the quilt and looked clear, "What's the big deal?" Disturb Miss I sleep! ”
"Miss, it spread all over the house this morning, and the little guy who went out to buy in the morning brought back the news, saying that it was the nephew of the Li Mansion Doctor who was beaten by him last night and only had half a life left, as if his nephew sneaked into her concubine's room in the middle of the night, and then he was caught drunk and said that the youngest son of the Li Mansion Doctor was his...."The more she spoke, the smaller she became, and the blushing she could drip out of the back.
A smile flashed in Mu Zhimo's eyes, "You go and tell Jinping, she doesn't have to be afraid!" ”
Liuying quickly came to her senses, but her face was full of shock, and she saw Mu Zhimo blink twice before she came to her senses and retreated.
Li Zheng's clothes were covered with morning dew, and he hurried to Bichun Garden......
