Chapter 287: Finale

readx;

For the next half hour, the two of them were doing this and having fun. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Mu Xiang went to clean up the tableware first, the child was too young to eat skewers, Mu Xiang prepared pork chops, which were the most tender tenderloins, marinated in vinegar and sauce, put a little chili, in Mu Xiang's words, eat a little spicy, can exercise the will.

The carrots are steamed in a pot with yams, and they can be eaten by grabbing them directly. In the wilderness, it's too much trouble to make rice.

In addition to the steak, there are also a few fresh chickens bought in the town, all of which are plucked and washed, stewed two in a large pot, and set aside the noodles, the water they use is the spring water that Zhou Dahan went to find nearby, and the lake water can wash clothes, but cooking is still not good.

Mu Xiang packed up her lunch and ran to play with her son.

Deliberately throwing a stone at them near the water's edge and splashing them with water in their faces.

The two little babies, who are cute and unknown, only feel a cool wetness on their faces.

Seeing their cute appearance, Mu Xiang couldn't help but smile and bent over.

The little gourd despises his own mother in his heart, what a pit for his son!

Sugar dropped the stone, spread her arms, and ran towards her, trying to get her to hug.

"Mother, hug...... Hug ......"

Mu Xiang's body flashed, and when he approached, he deftly dodged, "Only when you catch up can you hug it!" ”

Tangtang looked at her pitifully, and had no choice but to chase in her direction again, "Mother...... Hug...... Hug ......"

Mu Xiang dodged violently when he was about to approach, making him pounce.

After a few times, Sugar Candy probably thought it was funny, giggled and ran after her.

The ground by the lake is very flat, there are not many potholes, and these two boys walk earlier than other babies, plus there is also her mother of the pit son, who often trains them, so they walk very steadily.

The little gourd was chubby and holding a small pebble in his little hand, and he didn't want to pay attention to the two, but without the company of his brother, he was throwing and playing alone, and he felt bored.

After only half a moment's hesitation, he spread his little hooves and ran towards his mother and brother.

Mu Xiang's waist flashed, and when he saw that he was coming, he beckoned to him with a smile, "Little second, come to my mother's place." ”

The villain who was running over had a pause, his brows furrowed, and his mouth pouted.

My mother really can't open any pot and which pot to mention, I hate it!

Mu Xiang saw that he was standing still, so he simply ran to his side, picked him up, pinched his armpits, turned in circles, and shook him.

The little gourd was not afraid at all, but giggled happily.

He Liansheng stood on the shore with his hands in his hands, watching the interaction between their mother and son, his originally cold eyes were full of tenderness and doting.

It's his woman, his child.

A few years ago, he couldn't have imagined such a scene.

I used to think that I would die lonely and spend my whole life, and I didn't know what happiness was.

But now, his life is complete because of these three people.

Along the way, they played around and stopped, and it was not until two days later that they arrived at Spring City.

Wei Zeng and Hongye knew that they were coming, so they waited at the gate of the city very early, and saw the convoy from a distance, and the person who drove the car, she recognized that it was the entourage trained by Mu Xiang.

Zhou Dahan stopped the carriage at the gate of the city and shouted to the back, "Master, it's here!" ”

Tangtang and Xiaohulu were originally asleep, but when he shouted in such a loud voice, he opened his eyes violently and sat up.

Momiji stepped forward happily, and Muxiang also lifted the curtain at this time and poked her head out.

"Tell me to see my godson," Momiji didn't bother to talk to Mu Xiang, and glanced straight into the carriage.

Mu Xiang and He Liansheng jumped out of the car one after the other, Tangtang followed closely behind, climbed out, and as soon as he appeared, he was hugged by Hongye.

Wei Zeng was not far behind, and then picked up the little gourd.

Momiji smiled: "This kid is a lot taller than when I last saw him, look at this little face, the flesh is so cute." ”

Wei Zeng also said: "The little second child has also grown up, and it seems that they are a little different." ”

Mu Xiang said: "When the children grow up, their respective characteristics are revealed, not only the appearance is different, but even the personality difference is also big, Tangtang likes to run, likes to jump, and the little gourd likes to sit there and not move, but also likes to meditate!" ”

Hongye sounded funny, leaned over and kissed the tender little cheek of Sugar Powder, "My godson, it's just different, let's go quickly, Xiaofu and Xuan'er are in a hurry at home." ”

Entering the city gate, Hongye got into his own carriage, the area of the spring city is not small, you can't rely on it, otherwise you have to go to noon.

Mu Xiang didn't want to take the carriage anymore, so Helian Sheng rode a horse and hugged her.

Sugar Candy saw the two of them sitting on the big horse, and stopped doing it, opening her arms and making a noise, and hugged them.

Ignoring Helian Sheng's cold glare, Mu Xiang took his son from Hongye's hand and hugged him in front of him. A family of three, riding together, Mu Xiang also wrapped his son in a cloak, and only his head was exposed.

The little gourd whimpered, and he was not happy.

My mother only loves my brother, not him.

Wei Zeng looked at him frowning, his face full of grievances, and he was amused, "Don't frown, your godfather will also take you on a horse, okay?" ”

Hongye glanced at him, this glance, full of endless affection, Wei Zeng's heart moved.

As early as a month ago, they had already held a very low-key wedding banquet.

Far away in Quancheng, even if someone wants to make trouble, there is no way. There are not many people who know them here, and I saw them with Xiaofu and Xuan'er, and they were just a family.

Sure enough, leaving the capital is the best choice for Hongye, Wei Zeng, and the two children.

When he was in the capital, Mu Xiang once met Mu Jinghua.

His rice shop business finally couldn't go on, and he couldn't make ends meet, so he had to do it for others.

Fortunately, the store belonged to him, and he collected some rent every month, so he would not starve to death.

However, for ordinary people, it is already very good not to be starved to death, but for Mu Cao and Mu Jinghua, who have always been pampered, such a small income is undoubtedly poor.

Mu Jinghua subsidized his family, and also set up a stall on the street to help people write letters, or write an obituary or something.

I heard that Xiaoqing, after being locked up for a few months, took advantage of one day, there was no one at home, and he rolled up and left. Before that, she had already run twice, but each time she was caught by Mu Jinghua and beaten again.

But she was unwilling, and finally saw the opportunity again and finally ran away.

Where he went in the end, no one knows, Mu Xiang doesn't care about this question, so naturally he won't ask more.

The house that Momiji bought is in the best location in Quancheng, but the area is not large.

Helian Sheng naturally refused to live in Hongye's house, so he chose an inn closer to her house and rented the entire second floor.

Chen's mother, magpies, and He An all went up and cleaned the second floor inside and out, as before, all the bedding was replaced with new ones, and the tea sets, dishes and chopsticks were also brought by them.

As soon as Helian Sheng arrived, the officials of Quancheng came, and waited cautiously outside the inn, waiting for His Royal Highness King Xiang to receive him.

Mu Xiang took sugar candy and small gourd, and Hongye went home to pull Xiaofu and Xuan'er, accompanied by Zhou Dahan and He An, and the group went to play on the street.

Shan Linyuan was in Quancheng, managing the affairs of the beggar gang, and when he heard the news of the master's arrival, he naturally didn't dare to slack off, so he hurried and found them on the streets of the city.

Shan Linyuan originally didn't like children, but for some reason, as soon as he saw Tangtang and the little gourd, he felt as if his heart was about to melt.

No, as soon as he saw Xiao Tangtang riding a big horse on Zhou Dahan's neck, he couldn't wait to hug him down and sit on his shoulder, "That guy's bones are too hard, and he is not as comfortable as Uncle Shan's shoulders, isn't it?" ”

Little Sugar Candy happily sat on his shoulder, one leg still dangling, to show how happy he was.

Hongye saw that Shan Linyuan was coming, so he approached Mu Xiang's side and said to her: "If you hadn't sent Shan Linyuan over and subdued the beggars in Quancheng, I would really not be able to handle it for a while!" ”

Mu Xiang was puzzled: "Is Spring City very chaotic?" ”

Hongye said: "It's not chaotic, it's just that there are a lot of people coming and going, it's chaotic, some of the gangsters who have wandered here and, the ruffians, often come to find fault if they have nothing to do, the second day our store just opened, they came to the door to ask for protection money, I didn't give a cent, they often came to make trouble, if it wasn't for Shan Linyuan's later horse, where could it be solved so clean." ”

On this point, Mu Xiang ignored it, it stands to reason that Quancheng is not far from the capital, if it is left in the war years, Quancheng is the gateway to the capital, and it stands to reason that it should not appear in a chaotic situation of public security.

But she also understands that this kind of ruffian is really difficult to discipline, to put it mildly, people won't hang you at all. It is to send the government to arrest it, there is no major crime, and after being locked up for a few days, they have to be released again, and the cycle repeats, and their courage is naturally getting bigger and bigger. As long as you don't do the business of killing people and selling goods, you'll be fine.

Shan Linyuan walked in front with Tangtang on his shoulder, took his hand, and took him to play and run, and the two of them were as happy as their peers.

Zhou Dahan was not willing to lag behind, and also picked up the little gourd, asked him to straddle his neck, and chased the two people in front of him.

Mu Xiang retracted his gaze, with an uncontrollable smile on his face, "If he can't even solve this little thing, can he still be considered my person?" ”

Hongye was amused by her boastful words, "Look at your spirit, the masters around you are like clouds, I heard that the little baby of Yuan Tong that you took in later has become a powerful clean person around King Xiang, a thousand steps away, directly take the head of the other party's generals, I really wonder, how did you find these people." ”

Shan Linyuan's previous past, she knows something, a man who is amorous, lives a debauched life, and likes to sleep with old women, in her opinion, must be avoided like a snake and scorpion, but she takes people under her command and tries her best to train him, which is really incomprehensible.

Mu Xiang glanced at the two subordinates walking in front of him, and smiled faintly, "What's so incomprehensible about this, every person with expertise has his uniqueness, as long as he is good at discovering and suppressing his shortcomings, only letting his strengths show out, take Shan Linyuan as an example, although he is inappropriate in his private life, but his eyes are smart and cunning, in fact, he also knows how to be loyal in his bones, but he is covered up by appearance, and now I find out and build him, he has become a man who can support the world!" ”

Hongye heard the pride in her tone, and quipped: "If you say this, aren't you afraid that His Royal Highness King Xiang will be jealous?" ”

"He," Speaking of Helian Sheng, Mu Xiang's demeanor unconsciously revealed unstoppable happiness, "He likes to be jealous, but he won't eat the vinegar of my subordinates, because in his opinion, these people are not qualified to be his opponents, recently he likes to eat his son's vinegar, in his eyes, his son is about to become the number one natural enemy." ”

Momiji smiled, "Hmm...... I believe what you said, he really loves you and really cares about you, I said at the beginning, good men like him are rare, you have to take care of it, fortunately, you are also a powerful character, otherwise the rivals around you are one after another, and you will suffer. ”

The people of the Helian family went to make trouble, and she heard that Shan Linyuan was the most well-informed, and he was idle, and he liked to go to the store to talk to her and Wei Zeng.

When she heard that several elders of the Helian family wanted to take a concubine for King Xiang with a wooden incense, she really wanted to rush over overnight.

Isn't that bullying? Anyway, Mu Xiang is also a lady of the Commandment, Old Man Mu recognized her as a granddaughter, not a goddaughter, but a real granddaughter, and handed over half of Mu's property to her, Mu Qingyang is pitiful now, just a part-time worker, even his own people are in Mu Xiang's hands.

In addition, the industry she founded single-handedly, as well as the strength that she hid or didn't hide.

To put it mildly, she is now a real rich woman.

These people are well fed and have done against her.

Mu Xiang smiled confidently, "That's why I told you before, women can't be submissive, swallow everything in their stomachs, some people just want to take advantage of your kindness and abuse you, now you understand, no matter when, don't lose yourself." ”

Hongye sighed with emotion, "Yes, I was too stupid before, I didn't know how to protect myself, he treated me like that, I still thought about it from the beginning, it was just stupid, but fortunately now with Wei Zeng, he is a good man, I have nothing to say to me and my two children, and my life is complete." ”

"What kind of consummation, you are not a nun, if you want to be consummated, then you have to wait until you are old, your children and grandchildren are full, and you are about to close your eyes, then it is called consummation."

Momiji smiled, "Well, let's not talk about it, let's go catch up, a few children have run away." ”

The two of them were just talking, and there were many pedestrians on the street, and the child was out of sight in a blink of an eye.

After staying in Quancheng for four days, Helian Sheng only met with the officials here on the first day, and spent the remaining three days with her and the children.

The city of Springs is lively, especially at night, when it is lit up everywhere.

Jugglers from all over the country, as well as those bizarre knick-knacks, are all over the city.

Because the Chinese New Year was approaching, Mu Xiang didn't stay long, and set off with He Liansheng to return to the capital on the fifth day.

Red leaves sent them all the way to the gate of the city, and Shan Linyuan also went with them, and then went to Quancheng to guard it after the New Year.

Unconsciously, Mu Xiang has been in the capital for a year, and in this year, a lot of things have happened, she and Helian Sheng got married, the prince and the queen died, the new prince succeeded to the throne, and she even gave birth to a child.

There were too many things, after eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Mu Xiang lay in Helian Sheng's arms, listening to the noise outside the box, and suddenly sighed, "I really want to go back to Yuhe Village to see, it is my birthplace, and I came from there." ”

Her birthplace is not literal.

How could Helian Sheng not understand her voice, "I once promised you, as long as you want to go, I will accompany you, today is Chinese New Year's Eve, today last year, we are also thinking about entering Beijing, then, today this year, we are also planning to return to Yuhe Village, okay?" ”

Mu Xiang smiled and leaned on his chest again, "Well, let's take the two old men with us, they have been in good health recently, so take them out for a walk by the way." ”

When she couldn't see it, Helian Sheng smiled evilly, "Since you want your husband to accompany you back to your parents' house, how can you not be paid?" ”

Tonight, Caiyun and Mu Lang, with two little babies, went out to play, Chinese New Year's Eve, the streets of the capital are lively.

As for the safety of a few of them, there is no need to worry about it, the Xiangwang Mansion is now full of masters.

Yuan Hitomi, who has been lurking in the army, was also brought back for the New Year, as well as Shang Yan, although he is alone, but according to Mu Xiang's order, during the New Year, everyone around her must come back for a reunion dinner.

So this year, it's been a particularly lively one.

Now that they are watching, Mu Xiang is not worried at all.

So, what did Helian Sheng mean by deliberately saying such ambiguous words?

She raised her head, put her hands on her chin, and lifted the curtain to look at him, "Xianggong, you shouldn't ask me for payment, you see, I even gave birth to a child, and the person is also yours, is it possible that you want to sell me?" ”

Helian Sheng put one hand under the back of his head, squinting slightly, staring at her.

After staring at her for a while, he suddenly grabbed her hand and slowly went down, and then smiled evilly, "This is the reward I want." ”

Mu Xiang smiled knowingly, "Oh? Then you have to stand it! ”

She suddenly lifted the quilt and slipped into the cover......

After Chinese New Year's Eve, on the first day of the new year, the Tang Emperor held a banquet in the palace to entertain hundreds of civil and military officials, and his body was no longer good, and it was a great luck to survive this Chinese New Year's Eve.

The members of the court have already moved, and the idea of inviting the new emperor to ascend the throne has been moved.

The Protector also stood on Tang Mo's side in this matter, although he was conceited, but in the matter of the country, he would not be ambiguous at all.

Although the Tang Emperor was unwilling to hold the imperial power, how could he be willing to give it to others!

But the situation is pressing, and there is no point in him holding on any longer.

Between half-push and half-concedence, he could only choose to abdicate and make way for Xian.

The day of the new emperor's accession to the throne is set on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

Originally, on such a day, Helian Sheng also had to participate, but Mu Xiang proposed to go back to Yuhe Village, Helian Sheng readily agreed, the new emperor ascended the throne, this kind of icing on the cake, he didn't want to participate in it, and it was good to avoid it.

Tang Mo knew that they were leaving, so he said that he would stay.

But Mu Xiang has made up her mind, besides, it's not that she won't come back, at most it will be two or three months, and she will completely clean up the matter in Yuhe Village, and she will live in the capital forever in the future.

Because she has been away for a long time, her business cannot be delayed, so except for Zhou Dahan and Shang Yan, as well as Ying Kill, the other subordinates all stay in the capital to take care of her business, return to her hometown and make money.

As for Yuan Tong, he didn't want to take him, but he stood at the door of Xiangwang's Mansion in a daze, even his burden was ready, and when he asked him why, he only said that Chen's mother and magpie had gone with her, and the food in the barracks was not delicious, and he wanted to eat roast chicken.

The dumb woman and Comber, as well as He An, and the fat girl were all left behind, and the affairs in the house also need to be taken care of, so they can't all go with them.

Cai went to have his own studies with Mu Lang, and Liu and Liu Mazi also came to the capital, so Liu Chen didn't have to go back with them.

Liu Mazi and his wife don't want to go back, after all, the capital is so good, so prosperous, well-fed, and well-dressed, who wants to go back to that poor and remote place.

But Mu Xiang didn't give her that chance, Liu and Liu Mazi are both authentic peasant families, and suddenly putting them in a place like the capital is definitely not a good thing for them.

It was only under Mu Xiang's tough attitude that they agreed to follow the convoy back to Yuhe Village.

Since I want to go back to my hometown, I can't go to Quancheng, it's to play, and the nature is different.

Mu Xiang pondered that he wanted to bring the best imperial doctor, so that he could take care of the children along the way, and when he arrived in the village, he could also see the pulse of the people in the village.

The candidate for this imperial doctor was selected by herself in the palace, that is, when she gave birth, she was taken out of the palace by Imperial Doctor Xu.

Imperial Doctor Xu is also a medical virtue, I heard that he was going back to the countryside for free treatment, so he brought a medicine boy and brought a lot of herbs.

He didn't have to worry about anyone else, he brought a carriage and a coachman, and he just said that it was enough to follow behind their convoy.

In addition, Mu Xiang asked the magpie to purchase a lot of gifts and bring them to Damei.

Modern Yipin now also makes clothes made of ordinary fabrics, which is Mu Xiang's concept of following the development of low-income people, because in this world, there are far more poor people than rich people.

Therefore, Mu Xiang asked the magpie to pick out a lot of clothes, a whole carriage, and if you can't finish it, you can take it to Linquan Town to sell, maybe you can also expand the sales channels of Linquan Town!

It took a whole day to prepare these things.

By the time their convoy left the city, it was already the fourth day of the Lunar New Year.

This time it was a long journey, and the carriages used were relatively large, pulled by two horses, and a small table could be placed in the carriage, as well as a row of small cabinets, and the two little babies had no problem playing and playing in it.

The carriage of the two old men has a chess table and a small charcoal stove, which can boil some tea, make tea, and warm your hands.

Yuan Tong followed Chen Ma and the magpie in the back of the carriage, in addition to eating, he was also using the method taught by Mu Xiang to train his eyesight and accuracy.

Ying Kill drove with Zhou Dahan, and sometimes changed with Shang Yan.

Wu Qing and Yan Zhong beside Heliansheng did not accompany him this time, and Heliansheng also transferred a team of men and horses from the army to escort him.

On the day he left the city, Tang Mo stood on the tower of the capital and watched their carriage leave.

Xiao Wu stood beside him, looking at the carriage in the distance like him, "Your Highness, the wind is strong on the city tower, the little one will help you down!" "He is now the manager of Tang Mo's side, it can be said that the future will be the person who will replace Wang Hai, as for why it will be him, it is unknown.

Tang Mo looked at the group of people who had left in the dust, and did not speak for a long time, nor did he pay attention to Xiao Wu's concern.

It was indeed very cold on the castle tower, and after only standing for a moment, the body was blown away by the wind.

After a long time, Tang Mo withdrew his gaze and walked down the city tower without saying a word.

People are different, lives are different.

If he is a prince, he has the mission of a prince, and how can he do it wantonly.

The former Tang Mo no longer exists, and is replaced by a generation of kings.

On this day, Tang Yan, who was also depressed, lost the position of the crown prince, and when Tang Mo succeeded to the throne, he would be sent away. Tang Xin is too reckless, he will not leave Tang Xin alone.

Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, although Tang Mo and them are siblings, but in front of power and the throne, the word siblings is meaningless at all.

Jiang Zhenting returned to the mansion from the palace, still looking for Jiang Rong everywhere as usual.

This Jiang Rong, although his injury has been cured, his mind has been completely distorted.

When Sikong Tuo had not left the capital, Jiang Rong liked to hang out with Sikong Tuo, often playing late at night, refusing to return home, sometimes staying in the post house, for several days, without a trace.

Now that Sikong Tuo is gone, he still doesn't go home much. But it's not like before, with his tail cocked and looking around with others.

Instead, he often mingles with some young boys, drinks and has fun, visits flower kilns, and lingers.

Jiang Zhenting felt ashamed of him, so he was much more relaxed in his discipline now, but he refused to send him away anymore, so he had to stay by his side to take care of him.

After this period of thinking and pondering, he has given up the idea of revenge, not because he doesn't want to retaliate, but because he suddenly feels that he is old and no longer young, how can he still fight Helian Sheng, who holds the power of the army!

It's good that he can figure it out.

Helian Sheng didn't want to kill him completely, after all, he was a meritorious person and had his own prestige. When he was young, he was also a respectable general. If such a person falls into a bleak situation, I don't know how many people's hearts will be chilled.

**

The carriage was on the road, stopping and stopping, and in the middle because of the need to adjust the rest, it stopped for two days, and when they got on the boat and could go directly to the Yudai River by water, it was already half a month later.

Helian Sheng's trip, not only did not make any publicity, but also deliberately blocked the news, and they hardly passed through the bustling towns except for the necessary supplies and accommodation.

This is also to avoid some unnecessary trouble, otherwise being stopped by those officials will be another flattery, hypocritical entertainment, and annoying.

After jolting on the carriage for half a month, after getting on the boat, it was much more stable, and the two babies slept well.

Tangtang and Xiaohulu can eat some non-staple food now, and they don't have to rely entirely on milk, otherwise they won't be able to leave the capital for so long.

Complementary food for young children, in addition to noodles, is eggs.

The ship they were on was large and spacious, divided into two floors, and when Mu Xiang saw this ship, his eyes lit up, because this was not Helian Sheng's exclusive warship, but a luxury cruise ship.

She thought that the ship was leased, because as far as she knew, such a ship could not be bought without tens of thousands of taels of silver.

Unbeknownst to her, Helian Sheng told her with a deep smile that this ship belonged to them.

Hearing the news, Mu Xiang opened her mouth wide and didn't close it for a long time.

She suddenly remembered that He An had reported that a year ago, Helian Sheng had subdued the river bandits on the Nu River, strengthened the power of the navy, and added a few warships.

Of course, she only knew that those ships belonged to the royal family, but she didn't expect him to buy another one.

Mu Xiang stood on the luxury ship, looked at the luxurious petty bourgeoisie arrangement on the deck, and swallowed fiercely.

As if he didn't think it was enough to stimulate her, Helian Sheng said to her that there were actually three more ships like this.

They all run transportation on the Nu River, and they are carrying people, not goods.

And the ship they took was exclusive to their family, and all the things on the ship had not been used by others.

In addition, in order to take into account the play of two young children and the safety protection work, it is also very tight, and the boat is surrounded by wooden strips, and the wood used has been polished in a series of ways, and there will be no barbs.

The side room, the things in the kitchen, everything is available.

Mu Xiang looked up and down the boat, and finally ran back to the deck, hugged Helian Sheng, and kissed him fiercely.

Fortunately, there was no one around them at this time, otherwise this scene would be seen by others, and they would not be ashamed to death.

When she was about to retreat, Helian Sheng put his arm around her waist and took her back to his embrace, "Just like this, it doesn't seem to be enough." ”

Mu Xiang glanced at him, "Come less, when I was in the mansion on Chinese New Year's Eve, you also said that I would pay the payment, so that I almost couldn't get out of bed the next day, how, do you want to come now?" ”

A sexy and lazy smile bloomed on Helian Sheng's handsome and extraordinary face, "You were the one who provoked the fire that day, do you blame me?" ”

"I didn't," Mu Xiang's face turned red, and she turned around in his arms, turning her back to him, biting her lip, as if ashamed, as if angry.

Helian Sheng simply grabbed her from behind, and his hot breath sprayed on her neck, "Well, you don't know who lifted the ......."

"Don't talk nonsense," Mu Xiang suddenly turned around and covered his mouth with her hand to stop him from continuing.

He Liansheng took her hand, put it on his mouth and kissed it, "I won't tease you, take the fishing rod and take you to the river to fish." ”

"Fishing, is there anything new to play?"

She is no stranger to fishing, and several times she has been a boat on the river, Helian Sheng will take her fishing.

Most of the time, it's him who fishes, and she's watching.

Helian Sheng smiled mysteriously, reached out to wrap his hand around her waist, took her into his arms, and flew up and swept over the side of the boat.

In order to facilitate fishing, the rods are placed on the edge of the boat for easy access.

There is also a small bag hanging from the rod, and the bait is placed in the bag.

Helian Sheng flew over, grabbed a fishing rod, and suddenly kicked a plank along the edge of the boat with a sudden force under his feet.

The plank was hit by a huge blow from him, and it flew out and landed in the water dozens of meters away.

Helian Sheng hugged Mu Xiang and chased after the plank, not breathing halfway, not settling down, until he approached the plank, and after it fell, he didn't even breathe.

Mu Xiang sighed again, and worshipped, her eyes lit up with envy, her father-in-law was really amazing, this kind of light work, is it the legendary floating on the water!

Helian Sheng collected all the admiration on her face, and shook the fishing rod with her long arm, "Stand in the river and fish, and those who wish to take the bait!" ”

As soon as he said this, Mu Xiang realized that he didn't wear bait, how can he fish, is it really like what he said, is the wisher hooked?

"The fish in this river are cunning, if you don't wear bait, how can they bite the hook!"

Helian Sheng lowered his head, kissed her on the cheek, and smiled evilly, "Didn't you say that?" If they don't want to, then they can only come hard! ”

"What's hard?" Mu Xiang doesn't understand, what is called hard?

But at this time, Helian Sheng had already ignored her, staring at the bait intently, and he didn't even roll his eyes.

Mu Xiang had always been holding him, but fishing was a slow job, and it was always uncomfortable to hold it like this, so she wanted to move.

It's okay not to move, this move, it's terrible, she found out that the wooden board he kicked up was only one square meter in size, and he stood just right with himself, if she let go of the waist holding Heliansheng, the floating board would be unstable immediately.

The small floating board flickered, and Mu Xiang was frightened and hurriedly hugged him tightly.

Although she can also swim, after giving birth, her body is cold. In addition, at this moment, he is standing in the boiling river.

The stretch of river beach they walked through was so strong that the waves in the river were almost hitting her feet.

Looking at it this way, she felt that something was wrong.

When I looked at the big ship behind, I suddenly realized.

It turned out that what made her feel wrong was that the floating board they were stepping on did not float away with the current, but was dangerously blocked in the river waves.

At first, she didn't pay attention to it, until this time, when the current was strong, and she saw that there was a rope connecting the boat to the plank.

This man...... When did you remember it?

She moved around in Helian Sheng's arms, one moment letting go of her waist and holding her, and the next she hugged her tightly, because the plank was too narrow, and she had to be next to Helian Sheng.

This kind of movement finally attracted Helian Sheng's attention, he lowered his head, his eyes were deep, "Xiang'er, don't move, just want to move, just at night." ”

Mu Xiang was amused by his words, glanced at him, and said: "I think beautifully, in the past two days, Tangtang and the little gourd, I don't sleep well, I have to take care of them at night, and there are several days of waterways, and the humidity is heavy at night, so I can't let the child get sick." ”

Speaking of children, Helian Sheng also restrained his mind and continued to stare at his buoy, "The quilt they sleep on at night, as well as the clothes they want to wear, have to be baked to get rid of moisture, and in addition, when sleeping, don't open the window, you know?" ”

Mu Xiang hugged his waist again, the muscle texture on his palm was solid and hard, listening to his advice, he only felt warm from the heart to the outside, "I know, but you may have to go to sleep in another room tonight, I think the bed is quite small." ”

"Small bed? How can it be! Helian Sheng was completely skeptical, because all the arrangements on this ship were designated by him, especially the main wing of the two of them, and they chose the largest one on the ship.

Mu Xiang pouted, "Why can't it, no matter how big the bed is, it's not enough for the four of us to sleep, just the two of them have to take up most of it!" ”

Children like to toss and turn when they sleep, and when they are in the house, they have their own little beds, which are resting next to their beds, so that when they get up at night, they can easily check it.

Now on the boat, she needs to sleep together, and she is afraid of pressing the child, of course, as big as she is.

Helian Sheng thought for a while, frowned slightly, and then stretched, "No defense, you can sleep on me then." ”

Although he said a meaty word, the expression on his face couldn't be more serious, it was like a war report, and people who were far away couldn't think of what he was talking about when they saw his expression.

Mu Xiang sneered, "I notice that you are talking more and more obscene now, you weren't like this before!" ”

"Well, there was no lady before, but now that there is, it is naturally different."

As soon as he finished speaking, he grabbed the hand of the fishing rod and suddenly grabbed it, and before Mu Xiang could see it clearly, he saw his arm suddenly wave.

The hook, which does not have a bait through it, swings violently in the water, like a hurricane crossing the water.

When the hook was lifted out of the water, a big fish was hanging around.

"Wow, how did you do it, it's clearly not fishing!" While Mu Xiang exclaimed, he could see clearly how he made a move. It must have been when the fish swam within his range and suddenly flicked the rod and hooked the fish directly. This kind of stunt is no longer in the category of fishing.

Helian Sheng put away all her adoring expressions, and the fishing rod flicked again, and the fish flew directly onto the deck, "Although this is a bait from the wisher, as long as it is in front of me, will it still let it escape?" ”

In what he said, there was a voice-over, and Mu Xiang could hear it, which was alluding to her! This guy, when, doesn't forget to get involved with her.

The two of them stood on the floating board, but in just three moments, Helian Sheng had already thrown more than a dozen big fish, the largest one was more than seven catties.

Sugar Candy and Little Gourd, under the supervision of Ying Kill and Magpie, stood on the deck, watching their father play cool and happy.

With so many fish, of course, it is indispensable to boil fish soup with fish bones, and use fish soup to give sugar candy and small gourds.

For the excess, Chen's mother sliced the fish, and Mu Xiang personally cooked and cooked a pot of sauerkraut fish.

I didn't dare to put more chili peppers, and there were more sauerkraut, all of which were brought out from Xiangwang's mansion, because I was afraid that someone would get motion sickness and seasickness on the road, and I would eat it at home.

The first time Imperial Physician Xu ate Mu Xiang's cooking, he originally thought that Mu Xiang was no different from those eldest ladies in the capital, but he didn't expect her cooking skills to be so good.

Before the sauerkraut fish was ready, he smelled it and came.

Yuan Tong has always liked to eat chicken, but when he heard this sour and delicious sauerkraut fish today, he immediately threw his habit of eating chicken out of the clouds.

Tangtang and Xiaohulu, although they had just started to eat supplementary food, but they also smelled the dishes made by their mothers, and the two of them held the table, but they refused to go down, looking at the pot of sauerkraut and fish.

Helian Mingde smiled and said, what kind of mother has, what kind of son there is, this is really not false at all.

Later, it was Helian Sheng who felt sorry for his son, picked out the fish bones, and passed them in the soup for a while before he dared to feed them.

But these two little babies refused to give up after eating a piece, and their saliva flowed all over the ground.

Doctor Xu laughed when he saw it, although he couldn't bear it, but he followed the doctor's medical ethics, and still didn't forget to tell them not to give the child too much food, so as not to be unbearable.

After dinner, Ying Kill brought hot water, although it was inconvenient to take a bath, but it was still necessary to wash the little faces of the two babies, and the little feet had to be washed.

At this time, the magpie will also be there, and Helian Sheng will leave for a while, and it won't be his turn to make a move!

At this time, Ying Kill will also put down the sword, and use her hand to hold the sword, carefully cleaning the two little babies, that serious attitude, even Mu Xiang was moved by it.

Tonight, she couldn't help but ask Ying Shu, "You like children so much, do you want to tell you about your relatives after you return to the capital, and you can also get married in the future, and you can have your own children when you become a parent." ”

Ying Kill shook his head vigorously, his head shook like a wave drum, "Don't, my subordinates will never marry in their lives, they will follow their masters all their lives, and watch the two little masters grow up, there is only one wish, nothing else!" ”

Mu Xiang listened to her firm and unhesitating answer, and suddenly understood a little in her heart. Ying Kill is not burdened by love, nor is she too cold by nature, she just doesn't want to get married, she likes Tangtang and Little Gourd, and subconsciously treats them as her own children, that's all.

"Well, when you change your mind one day, you must remember to tell me that although you are my subordinate, you are also a woman, and you want a home, this is reasonable, there is no violation of anything, understand?"

"Well, my subordinates understand," Ying Kill lowered his head, his eyes still focused on the two little babies.

Mu Xiang smiled, no longer talking about her, but looked at the magpie, "What about you?" How are you? ”

The magpie was stunned for a moment, and then smiled shyly, "What's the matter, don't joke about the slave and maid." ”

"Am I joking, or do you not want to admit it, since you like it, you have to fight hard, otherwise you still want me to give you a marriage?"

"Master, you are talking nonsense again, the slave and maid are not ......" The magpie's face turned even redder.

Mu Xiang retracted her gaze, teased the little gourd who took off her padded jacket and was sitting on the bed playing, and didn't forget to say to the magpie: "If you don't admit it, then after you go back this time, I will tell Wu Qing about family affairs, what do you think?" ”

"Huh? Do you want to say goodbye to Brother Wu? This...... How can this work," the magpie panicked, but she didn't feel that she was panicked, and her emotions were written on her face.

Mu Xiang glanced at her, "What's wrong with this, anyway, you don't like him, do you want to say kiss to him, what kiss to him, it seems to have nothing to do with you!" ”

The magpie bit its lip and didn't speak for a long time.

Ying Kill, who had been silent, straightened his waist and looked at the magpie coldly after putting on the socks for Tangtang, "Since you like it, you have to work hard, you grind and chirp, what's the matter, the whole house, who can't see that you like him, you, if you pretend again, it's boring." ”

She suddenly said so many words, even Mu Xiang was slightly surprised.

The magpie still looked up, "I know, in fact, before I set off, I confessed to him." ”

"Confession?" Mu Xiang looked at her in surprise.

Magpie nodded, "Well, confessed." ”

"And how did he get back to you?" Mu Xiang really didn't expect this, she always thought that the magpie was a stuffy gourd, but she didn't expect that she would be able to have a flash of inspiration.

The magpie blushed as if it were bloody, "He...... He said that he would wait until we returned from Yuhe Village. ”

Mu Xiang was disappointed, "What do you mean by that, he's like that, really, when he encounters important things, he likes to procrastinate, it's not cute at all, you don't care about this matter, after I go back, I will let someone tie him up, whether it's good or not, let him give you a good word." ”

"How can this work, this is not good!" The magpie was terrified.

"What's wrong, no problem, I'll tie it up and let the master interrogate," this was said by Ying Shu, she was a little anxious, a little unlike her.

Mu Xiang noticed this, but obviously the magpie didn't care.

When he slept at night, Mu Xiang lay in Helian Sheng's arms, as he promised before, lying in his arms, two people, occupying one person's place.

Tangtang played with Little Gourd for a day, and the boat was on the river, rickety, similar to sleeping in a cradle, so they slept early.

Mu Xiang lay on Helian Sheng's chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, and the river flowing quietly outside the window. This section of the waterway is stable, except for the sound of the river, the surroundings are very quiet.

During the day, when they only saw the boat they were on on the river, they felt that they were the only ones left between heaven and earth, and that feeling was not good at all.

But this will lie on Helian Sheng's body, and what he hears, sees, and smells all belongs to him.

All of this has made her floating heart a lot more stable.

Helian Sheng didn't do anything to her, but stroked her back, rhythmically, regularly, "Sleep, there are still a few days to go, these two boys woke up early in the morning, you have to rest well." ”

After being bumpy on the road for so long, the words he said during the day were to tease her, how could he be willing to let her suffer again.

Mu Xiang lay on her stomach steadily, and after a while, she smiled sweetly, "Well, you have to remember to help them shush at night." ”

"Yes, you can sleep at ease!"

Helian Sheng can always be a super dad at any time, feeding and changing diapers, and even hugging them at night, he can do it very well, and he doesn't have to worry about Mu Xiang at all.

The sugar candy bar smacked, and I didn't know what delicious I dreamed of.

The little gourd turned over, squinted his eyes, looked at his father and mother who looked like a stack of arhats, and suddenly felt speechless.

These two are even more naΓ―ve than they are!

The luxury cruise ship traveled on the river for a few more days, calculating the mileage, it has reached the boundary of Linquan Town, and in half a day, you can see Yuhe Village.

Although this is the birthplace of the deity wood, today's woody fragrance still has a feeling of homesickness.

Linquan Town produces wine, and most of the cargo ships on the river are transporting wine, and the closer they are, the more small and medium-sized merchant ships on the river.

When Mu Xiang was in Linquan Town before, she had only dealt with Fushoulou, and as for a wine-scented family like Shao Qiushuang, she had never been in contact with it, so she didn't know which of the Shao family's merchant ships was.

She doesn't know others, but others remember her.

No, Shao Qiushuang and Shao Qing'er were sitting on a merchant ship and wanted to go out with the merchant ship to have fun, when they saw a luxurious and high-end ship coming from a distance.

With their hearts, how could they not watch this ship.

When the two boats met, Shao Qing'er screamed in surprise, "What a beautiful boat, it would be great if you could go up and take a look." ”

At the same time, Mu Xiang and Helian Sheng were also standing at the bow of the boat, and when they heard this scream, they looked towards the boat they were on.

Shao Qing'er looked at it fixedly, and only felt that the person standing at the bow of the boat was familiar, "Hey, sister, who is that person, how do I feel familiar?" ”

Shao Qiushuang has been married in this year, and she is no longer as excited as before when she sees the beautiful man again, but when she followed the direction of Shao Qing'er's finger and saw Helian Sheng and Mu Xiang standing hand in hand, she opened her eyes wide, and once thought that she was wrong, "How could it be them?" ”

As soon as Shao Qing'er heard what she meant, she knew that she was right, "It's really the wild girl of the Mu family, the one next to her, isn't it King Xiang?" ”

Shao Qing'er's tone was full of disgust, in fact, to put it bluntly, she was envious, jealous and hateful.

Look at what people are wearing, the jewelry on their heads, and the boats they are on, their boats are simply tattered compared to each other.

On the contrary, Shao Qiushuang was much calmer, probably a relationship of marriage, she just glanced at it with a slightly jealous gaze, and then withdrew her gaze, "Don't shout, the family is King Xiang, she is now Princess Xiang, and we are not all the way!" ”

Shao Qing'er pouted, "Hmph, what's not to do, no matter how good-looking a man is, no matter how powerful he is, he won't marry a concubine, just like a brother-in-law, when he didn't get married, he looked so honest, one liked you one by one, and one by one cared about you, how long has it been since he got married, and he has already married two, and the men in the world are all the same!" ”

"Shut up! You don't speak, no one when you're dumb! Shao Qiushuang scolded sharply, turned around and left the deck, and entered the cabin.

In fact, it can't be said how bad her marriage is, just like Shao Qinger said, most men are like this, what's so special?

Shao Qing'er grimaced at her back, and then turned her head to look in the direction of the big ship, "What's the big deal!" ”

Suddenly, a flash of light flew into her sight from outside her sight, Shao Qing'er only heard a whoosh, and then, she felt that her ears were hot, and when she raised her hand to touch it, she instantly cried in fright, because her hands were full of blood.

"Ah...... A lot of blood...... That's a lot of blood! ”

When she screamed, the sailors and servants on the ship were frightened, and hurriedly ran over to stop the bleeding and bandage her.

Shao Qiushuang also heard the movement, opened the curtain, and was about to scold her, when she saw that there was a large pool of blood where Shao Qing'er was standing, and her eyes caught up with the big boat that had already driven away from their boat.

I saw a young man holding a bow and arrow in his hand, hooking his lips and smiling, and that smile was definitely ill-intentioned.

Hitomi put away her bow and arrows and turned away from the stern.

Ying Kill met him and asked coldly, "You killed her?" ”

"No, I cut off half of her ear," Yuan Hitomi said in an extremely relaxed tone, not at all like a person whose hands were stained with blood.

Ying Kill didn't say anything, "The master returned to his hometown, and he didn't want to see too much blood, and in the future, this kind of person would just be thrown into the river, and he would see blood...... Unlucky! ”

"Oh, yes, it won't."

If an outsider hears their conversation at this time, it is estimated that they will be frightened.

What is Shao Qing'er's ears, except for Shao Qiushuang and others, no one else will care.

Shao Qiushuang also knew that they had inadvertently offended King Xiang and that woman again, and the only way to avoid it was to avoid it as soon as possible.

Half a day later, Mu Xiang was holding Sugar Candy, Helian Sheng was holding a small gourd, and the family of four was standing at the bow of the boat, and they could already see the outline of Yuhe Village.

They didn't notify anyone when they came back, so no one would come to pick them up.

Further inside, the big boat couldn't get in, so they changed to a small boat, and Zhou Dahan rowed the boat and took them to the nearest river beach to the wooden house.

If you have the rest of the supplies, you can just come back and get them.

In fact, there is also Old Man Mu who is as worried as them.

He held the hand of the crutch, which was shaking all the time, and his eyes were moist as he stood up, "Girl, can you take me to see your mother's grave?" ”

Mu Xiang felt a little sad in her heart, "Yes, my mother will be buried in the cemetery in the village, rest for two days, and I will take you to see it again." ”

"Okay," the old man nodded, not asking any more.

There is no contradiction between excitement and calmness.

He is excited and calm, and no one is there, so what can he do if he is not calm?

The boat is going against the current on the river, and with Zhou Dahan, a strong man, there is no problem in sailing.

After a while, the outline of the wooden house could be seen clearly, and from a distance, it seemed to be the same as when they walked.

There is also the sausage workshop that Mu Xiang built before she left, and the waterwheel that was built after she left.

Even the small vegetable garden behind the house can be seen more and more clearly.

"Uh-huh......" Tangtang pointed to the wooden house, wanting to say something, but he couldn't say it well, so he could only make a hmm-hmm sound.

Mu Xiang kissed his little face, "That's where my mother was born, if you don't have here, there will be no mother, and your mother will take you to see your grandmother in two days, okay?" ”

"Oooh......" Sugar Clapped her hands unconsciously, and her little slap snapped.

In contrast, Xiao Hulu was much calmer, squinting at his brother, thinking in his heart how to let his mother come to hug him, instead of holding his elder brother.

Helian Sheng freed up a hand and put his arm around Mu Xiang's shoulder, giving her silent support.

Finally approached, Zhou Dahan grabbed the rope, flew to the shore, and slowly dragged the boat closer.

Helian Sheng Mingde looked at the landscape in front of him and sighed: "What a good place." ”

Old Man Mu was in an extremely complicated mood at the moment, and he had no time to take care of him, and after the boat docked on the pebbles on the shore, he slowly walked off the boat with the support of Zhou Dahan.

Mu Xiang held the child and followed closely behind Heliansheng, who jumped off the boat first, and then turned back to pull her.

Yuan Hitomi jumped down on his own, stood on the shore, and played with stones.

The magpie and Chen's mother helped each other to get off the boat, and Liu and Liu Mazi walked at the end, they were afraid of Heliansheng's aura, and they didn't dare to say anything along the way.

Walk along the riverside path to the old house of the Mu family, once this road, Mu Xiang has walked countless times, after a year, this path is still the same.

The pond behind the wooden house was sorted out by Helian Sheng himself, when they left, the pond had been planted with lotus root seedlings, and the other half was sprinkled with water chestnuts, but unfortunately now that the season is over, I can't see the lotus flowers in full bloom in the pond, and I can't row a boat to pick water chestnuts in the river pond to eat.

Helian Sheng held the little gourd and stood on the bank of the river pond, he suddenly turned his head to look at the little gourd, "Do you want to go down and dig lotus roots?" ”

The little gourd slanted at him with a suspicious look. What does Daddy mean by this, why can't he understand it!

Helian Sheng smiled slightly, "Don't look at your father with such eyes in the future." ”

The little gourd's eyes made him laugh, what kind of eyes did he have? Is his own father very unreliable?

"Why are you two standing there and not leaving?" Mu Xiang had already walked to the edge of the vegetable garden, and when he saw that they hadn't followed, he turned around and called them together.

Tangtang was picked up by Zhou Dahan and rode him around his neck. Tangtang seems to like this posture very much, as long as she sits on Zhou Dahan's shoulder, her calves will tremble.

Zhou Dahan also likes him, so even if sometimes the master doesn't need him to hold the child, he will take the initiative to ask to walk with them.

Helian Sheng pinched the armpit of the little gourd, raised his hand, shook him on his shoulder, and said to Mu Xiang from afar: "Oh, this is coming!" ”

Mu Xiang smiled, stopped looking at them, and turned to walk towards the gate.

When they set off from the capital, it was not yet the fifth day of the first lunar month, and it took them twenty days to reach Yuhe Village after walking and stopping along the way.

The New Year is almost over, and the business of the sausage workshop cannot be delayed any longer, and Wang Xi and they must have already started.

Sure enough, before I reached the door, I heard a commotion.

There are also people who go in and out of the workshop, carrying goods back and forth.

In the past, when Mu Xiang was there, when it was cold, pork was transported from the town on the first day, but now that their business channel is mature, it must be more formalized than before.

Helian Mingde was amazed, "Girl, is this workshop really run by you?" ”

Mu Xiang smiled proudly, "Of course, is this still fake?" In addition to this workshop, there is also a windmill in the distance, when I left, someone had already drawn the drawings, and then I also sent someone to supervise the construction, although this windmill is not the same as I originally thought, but it can achieve the purpose of pumping irrigation, so it is enough, the workshop is produced, a lot of water is needed, but unfortunately there is no refrigerator, otherwise you can make sausages all year round, but it doesn't matter, they have now started to make bacon. ”

She has never forgotten the news of Yuhe Village, almost every other month, a letter will be delivered to the capital, and she will send someone to reply to them, and by the way, she will give them some pointers.

Wang Xi insisted that she was the owner of this workshop, and he and the people in the village all worked for her, which would not change at any time.

And Mu Xiang is also thinking, through this return to the village, and then expand the sausage workshop, so that Yuhe Village will become the first village of meat sausages, and the products from the workshop will be transported from the Yudai River into the Nujiang River, and then from the Nujiang River, to all parts of the country.

Helian Mingde's eyes were full of admiration, "You don't know what's in your little head, you can also develop a side business in this kind of place, you are worthy of being a business wizard, there is a river behind you, and the transportation is also convenient, very good!" ”

He also thought of the river behind him, but he didn't think about it as much as Mu Xiang, and his vision didn't last long enough.

Old Man Mu also looked at the house in front of him, "Ying'er is living in such a house when she lives here?" The old man is sorry for her, let her, and you be wronged. ”

The poor old man was heartbroken every time he thought of what happened to his daughter.

Mu Xiang walked over, patted him on the back, and comforted: "Grandpa, the past, let it pass, how did my mother get here, even I don't know very well, the past, don't mention it, as long as we live a good life in the future, my mother can be relieved under Jiuquan." ”

Old Man Mu's eyes were red, and his rickety back seemed to be more curved, "Okay, listen to you, let's finally go back to our hometown once, we have to be happy, grandpa will take a good look and see where your mother has lived." ”

As he was talking, Helian Sheng had already walked over, and suddenly, the people who came out of the workshop found them in the distance, "You guys...... Ah, isn't this a woody girl? ”

Wang Xi is very different from a year ago. A year ago, he was dressed in a coarse rag suit, and the corners of his trousers were always hanging high, all year round, in the standard day-time dress.

With an honest and upright appearance and a dark face with Chinese characters, he is not handsome, but he is still attractive.

Look at the current situation, the short coat has been replaced by a cotton cardigan, the lower body is also long trousers, and the hem of the tunic hangs down to the knees, which is the standard dress of a small trader.

That face is also more shrewd and shrewd than a businessman.

Mu Xiang looked at him and smiled quietly, "Brother Wang, long time no see!" ”

When she didn't speak, Wang Xi thought that she had seen it wrong, or that she was dazzled, but as soon as she spoke, he suddenly realized that it was true.

"You...... Are you really woody? Wang Xi's shocked words couldn't be said well, and his shouting voice was loud enough, startling the people in the workshop, hulala, and a group of people poured out.

"Muxiang is back?"

"Where, where?"

"Ah, woody!" This exclamation was obviously Da Mei's, but I saw that she was carrying a doll behind her, and she still had one in her stomach, so she pushed through the crowd and rushed out.

There are also Grandma Wang, Lin Changshu, Lin Fugui, and many familiar faces, Mu Xiang can't remember it for a while.

Liu and Liu Mazi are arrogant this time, and they can see everyone's envious eyes.

I went back to the capital, of course, it was different.

Mu Xiang walked over and hugged Da Mei.

Da Mei was suddenly hugged by her, her tears did not stop, and she kept flowing, "Why did you come back suddenly, why didn't you say hello in advance, did you come by boat from behind?" ”

"Well, I came by water, I decided temporarily, I want to come back and see, the head of the river is at the door of my house, why do you need to pick it up, this is your home? It's so cute," Mu Xiang let go of her, and turned to look at the male baby behind her, who was a few months older than Tangtang, tiger-headed, and with a small face that was unique to crop people.

When the baby saw Mu Xiang teasing him and talking to him, he smiled and cried sweetly, "Aunt! ”

Da Mei blushed, shook the child on her back, and introduced Mu Xiang: "The nickname is Huzi, and I don't know anyone about life, if I hadn't watched it closely, I would have run away with others." ”

Mu Xiang smiled and touched Huzi's thorn head, remembering that there were still a bunch of people standing behind him, and he was about to introduce it, but when he turned around, there were still people.

It turned out that just when she and Da Mei hugged each other and cried with joy, Helian Sheng hugged the child and took the two old men into the house.

Only the magpie and Chen's mother, as well as Yuan Tong, stood in place.

The magpie didn't need her to introduce her, knowing that the honest peasant woman in front of her was the master's old acquaintance, so she hurriedly introduced herself enthusiastically, "My name is Magpie, this is Chen's mother, and this handsome guy, his name is Yuan Tong, we are all from Xiangwangfu, and we are also Madame's domestic servants." ”

As soon as she said this, Da Mei realized that the childhood playmate in front of her was no longer the original village girl, she had become Princess Xiang, and she was different from the previous Mu Xiang.

Da Mei smiled a little crampedly, "Then go in quickly, Xiang Wu will come to my house to eat." ”

"Your family has built a new house, when I came from the back just now, I saw your backyard, and it was not small!"

"It's not that big, my father-in-law died, and my mother-in-law is happy to tear down the old house and build it again, and the yard has been expanded, so that the children can grow up and have a place to play," Damei humbly introduced.

Mu Xiang smiled: "This is very good, let's make money, isn't it just to live a good life, when will you give birth to this baby in your belly?" ”

"There are still five months, the two little babies who went in just now, are they yours? You gave birth to twins? ”

When it comes to her son, Mu Xiang's eyes are full of the light that belongs to her mother's love, "Well, the twins, I thought they were daughters, but as soon as they landed, they turned out to be boys, which made me angry half to death." ”

Da Mei glared at her with a smile, "The first child is two sons, you should be happy, why are you still angry!" Look at you, you are clearly born in happiness and do not know blessings, if you let Jin Ju hear your words, you have to be mad. ”

The two walked into the courtyard while talking, talking a lot, and Da Mei put the issue of identity behind her, not because she had a big heart, but because she hadn't seen much of this kind of scene.

In her opinion, except for the fact that Mu Xiang is better than before, everything else has not changed at all.

Chen's mother and magpie didn't stop them, the master had already said that when they arrived here, their identities were not important, so they were also very interested.

After entering the courtyard, the two hurried to clean up the house.

At the same time, I was also curious to look at this small courtyard.

Wang Xi took the first step and accompanied the two old men. Mu Xiang can't take care of them now, and even Grandma Wang couldn't squeeze in, she heard Da Mei talk about Jin Ju, listen to this, Jin Ju gave birth to a daughter?

She remembered that the man Jin Ju married opened a shop in the town. What is the name of Fang Youcai, he is a pedantic, old-fashioned young man.

"Isn't Jin Ju doing well? What's wrong with giving birth to a girl, it's a big deal to have another baby in the future, and it's not just that you can only give birth to this baby! ”

"You don't know," Da Mei talked to her while looking for the two little princes, but they didn't find them in the courtyard, they must have entered the house, and she couldn't follow up, so she talked to Mu Xiang about Jin Ju, "She can still regenerate, but her mother-in-law said that every child is not a son, it is an unfortunate thing, their ancestors have this tradition, patriarchal, and now Fang Youcai's business is bigger than before, and her mother-in-law doesn't let her take care of the business in the store, so she concentrates on conceiving children in the family, and doesn't let the door go out every day." ”

"Huh? There is such a thing, Jin Ju can also stand it? Mu Xiang thought of Jin Ju's lively and pretty face, it was really difficult to compare, what was the situation of such a young girl being locked up at home.

Da Mei sighed, "What if I can't stand it, in the countryside, it's all like this, the first child doesn't give birth to a male baby, my mother-in-law's family will definitely be unhappy, forget it, don't talk about her, Mu Lang and Caiyun didn't come back, I heard that she married Liu Erdan, Mu Xiang, you are amazing, you actually put Liu Erdan's obedience closely, and did such a big career, if he comes back now, I will definitely not recognize it." ”

"Mu Lang and Caiyun have to go to school, Liu Erdan is too, he is now renamed Liu Chen, he is a very hard-working boy, he is also very sensible, he is a talent that can be created, you are living a good life now, and it is not in vain that I handed over the workshop to you in the first place," Mu Xiang said sincerely. When she left, the workshop couldn't be taken away, so it was handed over to them, and the subsequent income was actually their credit.

"Our village is indeed a lot better now, my brother also set up an engineering team, in the off-season of sausages, he and Wang Xi went out to run business together, help you repair the house, build a house, our house, they got it, oh, by the way, my brother married a daughter-in-law, my sister-in-law has just given birth to a baby, and she is still in confinement!"

Mu Xiang sighed, "I've been gone for a year, and you all have changed." ”

At this time, Tangtang and the little gourd ran out of the house, "Mother...... Mother......"

Da Mei's eyes widened, "Ah, this little son is really good-looking, not like my family, black and strong, look at this little appearance, pink and tender, like a female doll." ”

The speaker has no heart, but the listener has a heart.

Sugar candy doesn't matter, the little gourd is not happy, half of the run, and then don't go, the little sugar candy stepped down the steps, directly into Mu Xiang's arms, and then opened his eyes curiously, looking at the boy on Damei's back.

Mu Xiang straightened his clothes for him, "Chang Zai Shui Ling is not a female doll, two little naughty ghosts!" ”

Sugar Candy pursed her lips and looked at her mother to express her dissatisfaction.

Mu Xiang looked at his appearance, felt funny, opened his mouth and bit his tender cheek, "What, my mother is still wrong?" You're just a little naughty guy. ”

Her words amused the tiger on Damei's back and giggled.

Tangtang seemed to be shy, turned around violently, and buried her face in her mother's shoulder socket.

Da Mei laughed, "What a clever baby, it will definitely be great when you grow up, Huzi, do you want to come down and play with Xiao Shizi?" ”

Mu Xiang said: "Well, let the two little babies go to play, and I will also go in and take a look at my old house, clean it up, and live at night." ”

"We often open the windows of this house to ventilate, and in the summer, we also repaired it once, there is no problem, but I haven't lived in it for a long time, or you go to my house to live!"

Wang Xi walked over, "That's it, let's go to our house to live, there is a vacant house, enough to live." ”

Mu Xiang didn't refuse, Helian Sheng took his hands and came out of the back room, "No need, just clean up here, you guys can go on your own!" Have a day off today, and talk about it tomorrow. ”

He felt sorry for his mother, ran all the way, and then went to live in someone else's house, and it was uncomfortable to live no matter how convenient it was.

Mu Xiang also meant this, "Yes, you guys go back first, we have all the things we have brought and there are servants here, so we can be busy." ”

"Okay, there is dry firewood in the workshop, I will let Wang Xi carry some for you later, there is moisture in the pit, you have to burn it before you can sleep," Da Mei said as she looked at the people coming in and out of the courtyard.

Just like Mu Xiang said, there are really a lot of people around her, there is a powerful one like an ox, and a girl who doesn't smile much and always has a straight face, and the person who has a black veil on his head and can't see his appearance clearly, although these people are weird, but even she can feel that these people are unusual.

Mu Xiang nodded, "I know, you all go get busy!" ”

The magpie sent Damei away, Huzi couldn't leave his mother, and he was also taken away by Wang Xi, and now only they are left in the courtyard.

Helian Mingde and Old Man Mu stood in the courtyard, looking at the dilapidated courtyard, and the two sighed and shook their heads.

Helian Mingde sighed that it was too rare to be able to raise such a capable girl as Mu Xiang in such a place.

Old Man Mu sighed, his daughter has fallen into such a place, living such a hard life, in the past few decades, he didn't know at all, he was ashamed!

Helian Sheng was already busy, and this was also a place he was familiar with, he commanded Zhou Dahan and Shang Yan to empty all the rooms except for the kitchen.

It's no longer in business, and it's useless to keep these things. Make room for them to sleep at night.

The place at home is not big, Helian Sheng's family must occupy one room, Old Man Mu and Helian Mingde sleep in the opposite room, and the others have to live in the old house, only Chen's mother and magpie, and Yingji, which is not easy to settle.

Later, Zhou Dahan and Ying Kill together moved the door of the old house and reopened a door, so that the door of the old house in the past did not have to face the next room, but directly to the courtyard, making it convenient to enter and exit.

Zhou Dahan is the best at doing this, plus there was a window here, so he could just dismantle it and process it.

Leaving the outer room, Wang Xi found a lot of materials and built a few beds, enough for Zhou Dahan and them to sleep, so that the problem of sleeping was solved.

Chen's mother hadn't made this kind of earthen kang stove for a long time, and when she first got started, she was a little uncomfortable, but Mu Xiang taught her.

The dry firewood sent by Wang Xi was lit in the pot hole in the kitchen, and then a large piece of charcoal was sandwiched into the earthen kang, a total of three earthen kangs had to be burned, and a lot of dry firewood was needed.

No one slept on the kang for a long time, and Mu Xiang and the magpie beat a bucket before they wiped it clean.

Of course, except for the kang that their family slept on, which she wiped with her own hands, the remaining two were all done by magpies and Ying Killing.

Although Ying Kill is not a servant girl, but with Mu Xiang, she has already learned that she has to take a sword when she should hold a sword, and when she should take a rag, she has to take a rag.

The bedding in the house cannot be covered, but it must be taken out and washed, and the ashes on the table and the curtains must all be washed.

Helian Sheng carried a bucket of water into the house, and carried a mop on his shoulder.

The floor in their house is made of bluestone slabs, which can be mopped clean.

Like Mu Xiang, he will only do the work in their house, and as the master, he will never even steal the work of the domestic servant.

Mu Xiang was cleaning up the wardrobe, looking at his figure bending over and mopping the floor, he smiled shallowly, "I really don't see it, you are also very good at housework." ”

When he used to live here, he only did manual work, and he couldn't do things like mopping the floor.

When a man works hard, he looks the most attractive.

Helian Sheng is like this, he rolled up his sleeves, revealing strong arms, and there was no fat at all around his waist, narrow and flat, and his figure was great.

Whenever he saw his figure, Mu Xiang was indignant at a sentence he had heard.

Doesn't it mean that men who have been married will be blessed?

She recently discovered that Tang Mo has gained weight, not to say how fat he is, but to be rounder than before, I don't know if it is the reason for getting married, or if he is a prince, he has a wide heart and a fat body.

But look at Helian Sheng, he is even sexier and more handsome than before he got married.

Helian Sheng noticed her staring gaze, the movements of his hands did not stop, and he took the time to hook his lips and smile at her: "I can't watch you work alone, it's not early, clean up early, let Chen's mother prepare lunch, the child is also hungry, the work here, just get almost done, the things to be washed, all the things to be washed, let the magpies do it tomorrow, you can rest well." ”

Mu Xiang was sweet in his heart, "It's still early, I'll have lunch later, soak these, wash and dry them in the afternoon, and dry them tomorrow, we have to call someone to send them quickly, after lunch, I have to coax them to sleep." ”

Helian Sheng said: "I have already sent someone to pick up things on the ship, and they will be delivered soon." ”

Mu Xiang touched the soil kang, it had been burning for a while, and the kang was already a little hot, but as soon as the heat came up, the moisture also came. She pulled the broken straw mat under the kang, trying to make the moisture dissipate faster.

The two old men took Sugar Candy and Little Gourd to play in the village, Yuan Tong followed them, Shang Yan was not at ease, and followed them together.

At this point, the workers in the workshop have to go back to eat and cook.

Da Mei and Lin Changzhuan brought them a lot of things, including celery, leeks, green garlic sprouts, and some coriander and spinach.

You know, in this season, vegetables are the rarest.

With vegetables, Mu Xiang is full of confidence and ready to do a big job.

Everything in this family was created by her, and it has a different meaning for her.

Chen's mother squatted on the edge of the well, washed all the vegetables, Wang Xi sent a large piece of beef, which was about to be dried, it was the New Year, the cattle killed in the village, he himself went to the town to buy some, except for the New Year's food, the rest were sent to them.

Because sugar candy and small gourds are also the first time to come to the village, before the time to eat, the workers who go home to cook enthusiastically send a lot of local products, the most are eggs, duck eggs, all packed in bamboo baskets, full of baskets, put down and leave, can not refuse.

There is also an old hen that is directly brought over, and the chicken's paws are bolted, and it will not run away if it is put down.

In less than half an hour, the corridor at the entrance of the hall was filled with large and small baskets.

Mu Xiang really didn't want to go, the people in the village are sincere, no matter whether there is a contradiction or not, when it is time to express it, people are never ambiguous.

Fortunately, she had already prepared, and after lunch, she called Wang Xi, Lin Changshuan, and Da Mei to distribute the things they brought to the villagers.

They have been back for so long, and they haven't seen Li Dashan, so it is estimated that this person will not dare to come out. I didn't see Chen Mei'e, and even Li Yuanbao didn't come out, this family is strange enough.

The dishes at noon are very rich, the original dishes and chopsticks are all there, today at noon, they eat by themselves, and tomorrow they will set up a few tables of banquets.

It's two happy events, and they did it together.

In this regard, Helian Sheng has no objection, whatever she says, it is what it is.

In fact, he likes such a calm and slow lifestyle, and he prefers to watch Muxiang like this.

The lunch meal was beef cooked in a cauldron, a pot full of beef, Mu Xiang couldn't even swing the spatula later, so he called Ying Kill to come over and take turns with her.

Sugar candy and small gourd lunch have to be made separately.

Chen's mother killed a duck and put it in a casserole and stewed it very early. I also rolled noodles and prepared to make duck soup noodles for the two little sons later.

Mu Xiang boiled two white eggs in the rice pot, and after they were cooked, he handed over the difficult task of feeding the eggs to Helian Sheng.

When he took over this task, Helian Sheng didn't have any expression, but when he chased Tangtang and the little gourd and fed the eggs, he realized that there was such a big difference between feeding eggs and feeding rice.

Boiled eggs have no taste, plus they have eaten too much, and they don't want to eat them at all, so they hide vigorously, a hundred reluctantly, and the painful process can be imagined.

In comparison, feeding noodles is much better.

There are delicious things, little babies love to eat, especially two babies eat together, Mu Xiang has her unique way in this regard, and the effect is not bad!

The way to do this is to sit them in a small wooden cart so that they can't run around, and then she holds a bowl and noodles, dangles them in front of them, and then teases them, "Let me see who has the biggest mouth!" ”

As soon as the words fell, they opened their mouths almost at the same time, rushing to eat the noodles on their mother's chopsticks.

The piglet grabbing food, that's how it came, the efficiency was high, and the food was happy.

When Helian Sheng saw her feeding the child like this, he asked her quite depressedly why she didn't say it just now.

Mu Xiang didn't reply to him directly, but held the rice bowl and asked his son, "Do you want to give your father a bite of rice?" ”

Tangtang's expression changed immediately, his brows furrowed tightly, and his small eyes were vaguely angry.

The little gourd reached out directly, grabbed it violently, firmly buckled the mother's hand, and then sent it to his mouth little by little.

"Haha......" Mu Xiang almost laughed, "It's so stingy, it's not okay to give a bite to my father, so is it okay to give my mother a bite to eat?" It was boring, but she wanted to know.

The corners of Helian Sheng's mouth twitched fiercely, and he suddenly realized that he had been too loose with his own lady recently?

Tangtang and Little Gourd are smart, and they are very good at observing words and feelings, how can they not hear their mother's words.

The little gourd pushed the hand that was pulled back back to the mother, and then raised her hand and handed it to her mouth.

Sugar candy can't say in action, there is no way, he applauds and cheers. In any case, he must let his mother know his intentions, otherwise she will go to sleep with the magpie tonight.

Helian Sheng was stunned, "You are misleading and unfair. ”

Mu Xiang's smug tail was about to, "What's the matter, what can you do with me?" ”

Helian Sheng suddenly stood still, only looking at her quietly, "Well, at night, you will know what I can do with you!" "Xiaoxiao, how can you endure the dignity of a man who dares to provoke him?

Mu Xiang heard the threatening voice in his words, and suddenly felt that he was going to carry it tonight.

The clay kang burned for an hour, and Mu Xiang felt that it was almost the same.

At noon, he wanted to coax the child to sleep, so he asked Helian Sheng to remove the charcoal, otherwise he would be hot from sleep.

At noon, the two old men also had to rest for a while, and their kang was laid out.

Old Man Mu slept on the kang for the first time, and Helian Mingde slept when he was fighting in the front army, but after many years, now lying on this kang, he also has a different state of mind.

The magpie brought the water, waited for the sugar candy and the little gourd to wash their feet briefly.

Then, she was urged out by Helian Sheng.

Helian Sheng followed her and closed the door.

Mu Xiang is making the bed, the bedding is spread flat on the bed, and there is no need for sheets, and two large cotton mats are put on top to prevent them from wetting the bed.

In addition, she also made two simple diapers to get wet, mainly to prevent, after covering the quilt, they disobedient little * rushed to the quilt.

Before going to bed, they were both taken outside by Helian Sheng, and solved it once, Mu Xiang estimated that there would be no bedwetting, and the nap time was not long, not like at night, with many dreams at night.

The two little boys who took off their coats, wearing only light underwear, seemed to be suddenly liberated, and they were jubilant on the kang and turned over and over.

Mu Xiang didn't worry about them frozen, the kang was hot, and after the futon was spread for a while, there was a warm heat on it.

Helian Sheng originally wanted to settle accounts with his mother, and by the way, he would punish her well.

But when he saw these two boys, churning on the kang, he was afraid that they would fall, so he sat down on the edge of the kang and stopped them.

Mu Xiang quickly took off her clothes, climbed onto the kang, grabbed the two excited little guys, and stuffed them into their respective quilts.

And she, lying beside one of them, stretched out her hand and patted them both.

She was lying next to Tangtang, with her mother by her side, Tangtang slept quickly, her eyes blinked a few times, and she fell asleep completely.

The little gourd didn't fall asleep so quickly, he propped up his arms, raised his head, looked at the distance of his mother, and then got up, crossed the sugar candy, and then climbed onto his mother's body, lying on top of her, his head next to his childhood gum, and then closed his eyes with peace of mind.

Mu Xiang couldn't laugh or cry at his behavior, but he didn't pull the kid off his body, but pulled the quilt over and directly covered the two of them.

Helian Sheng's eyes glowed red as he watched from the sidelines, and he asked in a low voice of dissatisfaction: "Do you have to coax him to sleep like this?" ”

He is dissatisfied, the lady's body has always belonged to him.

These two boys always try their best to take advantage of the mother, it's really bearable, and the father can't bear it!

Mu Xiang lowered his head slightly, looked at his son, who was already asleep with his eyes closed, his eyes were full of maternal love, "What's wrong, you talk quietly, don't wake him up, if he doesn't sleep well and is woken up, he will definitely have to cry." ”

Lying on the soft kang and smelling the familiar smell around her, she was also sleepy, yawned, and was about to fall asleep.

Helian Sheng was funny and helpless, so he had to take off his shoes and socks, lie down beside her, gently lifted her quilt, put the child on his stomach, patted her lightly, and said to her: "Sleep!" ”

It doesn't matter if it's possessive, or if you feel sorry for her, in short, this kid doesn't want to sleep on his wife's belly, and neither can his son.

The little guy on the stomach was gone, Mu Xiang turned over, leaned her head on Helian Sheng's neck, sniffing the breath on his body, the sexy man's breath, she was used to it, she didn't smell it, as if she couldn't sleep.

Helian Sheng liked her appearance the most at the moment, so he stretched out his free hand and took her into his arms.

This way of hugging each other is the most standard posture between them.

The sun is not big today, and after the masters and sons went to take a nap, Chen's mother and magpie took Zhou Dahan and went to the river to wash the quilt together.

Yuan Hitomi was idle, he also followed them, and went to the river, he didn't go to wash clothes, but to play, and he didn't have to worry about others, and ran to a far place to play alone.

The water of the Yudai River is trickling endlessly, and the water quality is very clear, and the water is not very cold when the sun shines at noon.

Chen's mother swung the quilt cover in the river, occasionally raised her eyes to look at the mountains and rivers in front of her, and sighed: "I finally understand now, why the master likes this place so much, look at this mountain and this water, what a good place." ”

The magpie smiled and nodded, and said, "That's where Madame was born, it's definitely not the same, I look at the yard, although it's a little smaller, but it's neatly covered, and I know at a glance that it's Madame's handwriting." ”

Zhou Dahan was standing here carrying dry water, and when he heard this, he turned around with a smile and said loudly: "Not only is the house built well, but even the workshop is very skillful, even I can't think of such a good idea, do you know what Madame said to His Royal Highness when she was eating?" ”

"Say what?" Magpie asked.

Zhou Dahan pointed to the Yudai River, "Madame proposed that a wharf should be built here, so that it would be convenient for the ships to dock later, and there would be no need to pull a long distance to drag the boats up like I did today." ”

Magpie's eyes lit up, "That's a good idea, they still have goods to ship out here, and with this dock, it will definitely save a lot of unnecessary trouble." ”

Chen's mother also smiled: "Madame's brain is flexible, and she can always think of things that others can't think of." ”

The three of them laughed and washed the clothes, and Zhou Dahan dried the water, and then took it back to dry.

The three of them washed their clothes and walked back, and when they walked back, they had already come to work as workers.

Today is different from usual, the owner of the Mu family's house has returned, and he has sent them a lot of good clothes, and they also know that the real owner of this sausage workshop is the one inside, and the others are just supervised by her.

In the midst of this group of people, there was an inconspicuous figure, sneakily looking into the gate.

Chen's mother is a discerning person, she quietly glanced at the magpie, the magpie understood, stepped into the yard first, and then called Ying Kill.

After a while, Ying Kill quietly came out of the courtyard, her cold gaze swept over the crowd, and at a glance, she noticed a person standing in the crowd and probing her brain.

Then, she slowly leaned in.

Mu Xiang only slept for a while and got up, got off the kang lightly, and covered the quilt for their grandfather, and then opened the door and went out.

Chen's mother and magpie had already dried the quilt sheets, Mu Xiang walked over, and said with a light smile: "Yo, you guys are doing it quite fast, well, it's also very clean, go and rest for a while, there are not many things, just do it slowly." ”

Chen's mother said with a smile: "It's not a matter of prevention, the heavy work is done by Zhou Dahan, and the lunch at noon belongs to him who eats the most, and he doesn't do it." ”

Mu Xiang didn't say anything more, looked at the crowded workshop door outside the courtyard, and asked, "Have the workers come to work?" Then I'll go and see, you all stay, you don't have to follow. ”

The appearance of the workshop is no different from when she left, but when she walked inside, it was eye-catching, the machines were all replaced, and there was a specially prepared enema machine, and the drying room was also improved.

The workers in the workshop are all dressed in uniform overalls, no longer the aprons that were used to be at the beginning, but a complete set, from the feet to the arms, and the neck, which looks clean and hygienic.

Wang Xi saw her coming, hurriedly greeted her, and introduced her one by one, "These enema machines, I searched for a long time, and then found a skilled blacksmith, just started to build, not too easy to use, changed and changed, no, it was only in the second half of last year, it was done, and seven units were added, and no matter how busy it is, it can be supplied." ”

Mu Xiang walked with his hands in his hands, nodding as he walked, "Brother Wang Xi, I didn't expect you to have this talent too, I didn't see the wrong person at the beginning." ”

Wang Xi smiled embarrassedly, "Wang ...... Princess, don't say that, the big ideas are all discussed by me and the bolt, he has a lot of ideas, people are lively, and Jin Ju and his brother, he also helped a lot, in short, everyone works together, otherwise I will not get it well. ”

Lin Changzhuan received the news that she came to the workshop, so she went to get the account book first, and then ran over and inserted it between the two of them, "Wooden ...... Oh no, princess Niangniang, this is last year's accounts, you see, because a lot of things were added last year, and some money was spent on the renovation of the workshop, and, according to what you said when you left, during the Chinese New Year, a wealth of red envelopes were sent to the workers, so last year's profit was not too much, you should take a look! ”

"You still call me by my name, it sounds kind, don't always call the princess and princess," Mu Xiang took the account book, flipped through it roughly, and still saw that their accounts were very detailed, and when she turned to the settlement page, her eyes widened suddenly, and she thought that she had read it wrong, "So much profit, you still don't say much?" ”

It's a lot, nearly 20,000 taels of silver! It's terrible that a small workshop can make so much money in a year.

Lin Changzhuan said apologetically: "It's really not much, the silver spent on chores is a few thousand taels, if it weren't for this, the money on the books would not be so small, but you can rest assured, it will be fine next year, the equipment has been purchased, and there will be no more extravagance." ”

Wang Xi also said: "You stay here for a day, I have already sent someone to get the money, and it is all stored in the town's money bank, we don't dare to take so much silver by our side." ”

Mu Xiang closed the account book and returned the account book to them, "You still keep this money as the capital, or, set up a school in the village, ask for a master, and the children will not have to go to school in the future, and the road in the village will also be repaired, Brother Wang Xi, you are now the village head, right?" ”

"Hmm," Wang Xi smiled shyly, embarrassed, a small village chief, he was embarrassed to say.

Mu Xiang said again: "That's right, since you are the village head, the big and small things in this village, you should take care of it, in addition to repairing the school hall and building the road, you see, this jade belt river flows through our village, should we build a wharf, repair the wharf, and then transport goods in the future, you don't have to go from Linquan Town, although because of the shallow river restrictions, the big boat can not arrive, but the small boat can transport the goods out, than you detour, but it is much more labor-saving." ”

Wang Xi was deeply inspired by what she said.

Lin Changshui, who was standing next to him, looked a little excited, "This idea, during the Chinese New Year this year, I also discussed it with Wang Xi, the reason why it was not settled, mainly because the wharf repair project is too big, we dare not do it, but if you really want to repair it, you can choose another waterway, just at the entrance of the village, where the water is deeper, and medium-sized boats can pass." ”

"Since this plan, then what are you waiting for, this money is enough for you to repair the wharf, find more labor from the nearby villages, and calculate the wages for them, you go and ask the people in the village, if you are willing to work for free, the income of this wharf will have their share in the future, if you are unwilling, just a few of you can repair it, and the income will go to the sausage workshop, I am in the restaurant in the capital, which has been opened, and then this sausage will be on the ship and transported directly to the capital, and the sales will not be in your hands, you just need to do things with peace of mind, it is enough."

Wang Xi was shocked when he heard this, "If you can do this, it would be great, you have solved our big trouble." ”

Although they have never been worried about their sales, it is also a big project to transport goods back and forth.

Lin Changzhuan was also happy, "You think too thoughtfully, it is worthy of people who have seen big scenes and done big business, and they can always think of what we ignore." ”

Wang Xi led Mu Xiang to look at it for a while, and looked inside and outside the workshop.

On the way, I met Grandma Wang, she had not been able to speak to Mu Xiang, this would finally see her, grabbed her hand vigorously, and did not let her go, "Girl, you have become beautiful, and your figure has also become better, look at this little face, it is watery, it doesn't look like she has given birth to a baby." ”

"Grandma Wang," Mu Xiang called her sweetly, her wife died, she was relaxed, and she looked much younger than before, "Aren't you also young, with your eldest grandson, you must be happy!" ”

Grandma Wang's mouth couldn't close when she smiled, "Yes, Da Mei gave birth to a tiger, our family is much more lively than before, and now life is better, they don't let me help with work, but I want to do it myself, although I am old, I can still run and jump, how can I only eat and not work!" ”

"They are honoring you, the work in the workshop is dirty and messy, you are still less good to come, besides, it is also a serious matter to take care of children, but you must not be sloppy," this is Mu Xiang's psychological words, children in the countryside, there are fewer guards, and there is a jade belt river behind, something happened, but it is terrible.

Grandma Wang patted her hand, "I know this, Da Mei is about to give birth, I have already prepared at home, and I can't be busy just with two little babies in the future, how can I still help work here." ”

Mu Xiang remembered the incident next door, so he asked tentatively, "Li Dashan, aren't they at home?" I can't hear that there is no movement in his family, as if no one lives. ”

"His family, you don't know," Speaking of the matter next door, Grandma Wang's expression became serious, "His family Li Yuanbao went to steal things with a few people a few years ago, and stole to the eldest young master of the Shao family, and somehow, such a small child was able to push Shao Wu down and fall to his death. ”

Mu Xiang didn't expect Li Yuanbao to end up like this, but I don't feel a pity when I think about it, even if I don't do it now, I will do it when I grow up, sooner or later. Shao Wu is also very funny, such a big person, he can be pushed down by a child, should he be said to be useless, or stupid.

It is also very strange that the county lord was arrested but not sentenced, it may be that he heard that Li Yuanbao is her younger brother, and as a county official, he naturally wants to befriend His Royal Highness King Xiang.

Mu Xiang didn't ask Grandma Wang about Li Dashan's family again, Grandma Wang pulled her and talked about family affairs for a while, until Yuan Tong came and told her that the two little sons woke up.

Mu Xiang hurriedly said goodbye to Grandma Wang and went home.

Grandma Wang looked at her back and left, sighing at her life, it's really good, marrying into the Xiangwang Mansion and getting a man in one fell swoop, or both, this is not ordinary luck!

At noon the next day, Mu Xiang asked Chen's mother and magpie to set up several tables of banquets at home.

In addition to their own things, the other chairs and benches are all borrowed from neighbors' families, anyway, they want to be lively.

The dishes at the banquet are also very rich, and the vegetables and other things are sent by each family.

The meat, except for a few items that were now purchased in the town, was also brought by the hospitable villagers.

Eating a meal in a noisy manner, Helian Mingde and Old Man Mu were also happy, and with the simple peasant family, those deceitful things had long been thrown out of the clouds.

Originally, Mu Xiang was going to wait until the next morning to take him to the grave, but the old man's family couldn't wait, so they ate the noisy lunch, so they went to the cemetery with a stick.

Helian Mingde followed silently, he could understand the mood of this old brother very well, the two of them had been together for so long, they knew it, besides, it was Mu Xiang's mother, it was natural for him to go and see.

He went, and the sugar candy and the little gourd naturally couldn't be left behind, so He Liansheng and Zhou Dahan went with him.

Later, the others also wanted to go and see, so they simply went with them.

Shang Yan went to the town and bought ingots and candles, as well as firecrackers or something.

The cemetery in the village is still the same as before, there is no change, and it is another year when spring sprouts, and under the dry grass, there are faint green shoots emerging from the grass.

Mu Xiang helped Old Man Mu until he walked to the innermost tombstone facing north, "Grandpa, this is my mother's grave." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Old Man Mu burst into tears, took out a handkerchief from his arms, covered his eyes, and wept silently.

He didn't say much, just wept silently, because no amount of words could tell the pain in his heart.

At this moment, Mu Xiang looked at the old man crying bitterly in front of him, and his heart was completely unblocked.

When people are old, looking at the people around them, one by one, what else hurts more than this.

Helian Mingde stepped forward, patted the old man on the shoulder, and comforted him: "If the person is gone, let her go in peace, you have to be well, so that the child can be comforted under the spring." ”

Old Man Mu put away his handkerchief and tried very hard to open his eyes and see his daughter's tombstone clearly, but no matter how he looked at it, the tombstone was also blurry, "Okay, okay!" This is a good place to rest, so let her rest here! ”

He also originally thought about moving his daughter's grave to the ancestral grave. But looking at the mountains and rivers by the cemetery, such a scene is indeed a good place to rest, maybe she doesn't want to go back to the capital at all!

"Son, come and kowtow to grandma," Mu Xiang beckoned the two children over, took them with them, and knelt on the edge of the grave together.

Helian Sheng did not hesitate, and also walked over and knelt down on his knees.

Mu Xiang's mother is also his, and it is right to bow down.

Tangtang and Little Gourd don't know how to kowtow, but they just watch their mother do that, and they follow her example.

Old Man Mu couldn't help crying again when he saw this scene.

Mu Xiang and his family knelt down, and Zhou Dahan and the others also knelt down and kowtowed. The master's father and mother, that is, their master.

The candles were lit, the firecrackers were set off, and the crisp sound of the cannons did not disappear for a long time in this quiet little village.

After returning from the cemetery, Old Man Mu was probably too tired, and when he got home, he went back to lie down and sleep.

In the evening, Mu Xiang took Ying Kill and Magpie to Zhao's house.

The person who was sneaking at the door of the wooden house that day was the mother-in-law of the Zhao family, and I didn't know what she wanted to do.

But no matter what, now that Zhao Xiuwen is dead, they can be regarded as white and black-haired, and Mu Xiang will no longer care about them.

As soon as he stepped into the threshold of the Zhao family, the scene in the courtyard made Mu Xiang slightly surprised.

Originally, the Zhao family was also wealthy in the village, just look at the blue brick house where his family lives.

But now, the ground of the courtyard is full of potholes, the walls are peeling, and there are large cracks in several places, and if you look up, the roof near the south has rotted a piece, and if it rains heavily, it will definitely leak.

Zhao Xiuwen and his father sat on the steps under the eaves of the porch, smoking dry cigarettes, and he didn't know what was stuffed in the pot.

After taking a puff of cigarette, he coughed so hard that he wanted to cough out his lungs.

He was the only one in the courtyard, and he felt that there was someone standing at the door, he raised his head, he didn't recognize it at first, but then he looked at it and knew who it was, he stood up a little excitedly, waving a cigarette stick, "What are you doing at my house?" You go, you wicked woman, what are you still doing in my house, haven't you hurt us enough? ”

As soon as he shouted, he lured out the mother-in-law of the Zhao family in the house, and when she saw Mu Xiang, she also had the same expression, "You...... How dare you step through my door? Mu Xiang, we can't fight you, we admit it, but don't deceive people too much, my son is dead, and I have nothing to fear. ”

rushed out at the same time, as well as Zhao Xiujie, he looked at Mu Xiang with frightened eyes, as if she was a demon who killed people without blinking, "Daddy, you go in first, in broad daylight, she doesn't dare to do anything to us, it's okay." ”

Mu Xiang was stunned by the situation in front of her, she looked at them with some amusement, "Did you make a mistake, Zhao Xiuwen's death has nothing to do with me, it was Su Xiu's harm, right?" ”

"You don't come to deceive people, we all know the truth, it's you, you sent someone to harm my brother, and my sister-in-law can't go back to my sister-in-law's home, our family has no money and no power, go to sue, and the county lord doesn't dare to accept it, all this can only be done by you," Zhao Xiuwen's eyes were full of fear, he stretched out his arms and stopped his father, as if Mu Xiang would pounce at any time.

For their understanding, Mu Xiang quickly understood that someone must have told them something, or had an enmity with her. Then, apart from Chen Mei'e, she really can't find a second one.

Mu Xiang sighed helplessly, "Words, I'll just say it once, believe it or not, anyway, what do you think, it doesn't matter much to me, I came here, just to see you pitiful, there is no other meaning, the death of your eldest son was caused by Su Xiu, she had an affair with a young master of an official family in the capital, and was caught by your son, in the chaos, he was stabbed to death, of course, that person also went to prison, Su Xiu is fine, but she fell willingly and entered the Qinglou, what about you, don't want to seek revenge on him, I guess you won't see her again in your life. ”

She paused slightly, and then said, "I'm done, whether you believe it or not, it's all your business, farewell!" ”

Even Chen Mei'e's words can be believed, I really don't know if they are stupid, or the Zhao family is too hostile to her, forming a prejudice against her.

Coming out of the Zhao family, Mu Xiang was in a bit sullen, and the magpie saw that the master was unhappy, smiled and comforted her, and said: "That named Su Xiu also deserves it, when she came to our house, the people in the house didn't like her, her temperament was too rampant, and she was very greedy for vanity, people like her, something happened sooner or later." ”

Magpie's words are not mean, but it is true, Su Xiu is the same as Zhao Xiuwen, they both chose their own paths, and they can't complain about others.

Mu Xiang smiled and shook her head, but didn't say anything more.

There are several toon trees in the village that have grown for many years, and at this time it is the time when the toon buds, and the wood fragrance passes under those trees, and it smells the rich aroma, and gradually stops and looks up at the toon tree next to the two people hugging each other.

"Ying kill, go up to pick toons, let's make fried toons to eat at night!"

Ying Kill nodded, tiptoed a little, and jumped on the toon tree with a light posture.

This kind of tree does not have many branches, so halfway, she can't stop to breathe, and has to hold her breath to the top of the canopy.

"Master, do you pick them all?" Ying Kill doesn't know the toon, and thinks this aroma is so unpleasant!

"Don't pick them all, pick those shoots, the more tender the better, don't pick the big ones!"

Ying Kill Fox looked at the branches and leaves at hand suspiciously, it was really difficult to figure out, what is big and what is small.

He simply drew his sword and cut off the branches.

"Huh!" Mu Xiang reached out to pull the magpie away so as not to be hit by the branches.

The magpie smiled and said, "Ying Kill is too rude, not gentle at all!" ”

It was almost over, Ying Kill flew down, gave her a blank look, did not say anything, but dragged the branches and went back to the wooden house.

The toon leaves for dinner are wrapped in eggs and then fried in an oil pan until browned on both sides and full of aroma, which is perfect for appetizers.

This night, the starry sky was brilliant, Mu Xiang fell asleep in a daze after coaxing the two toddlers to sleep, she always slept very deeply at night, only felt that her body shook slightly, and thought it was Helian Sheng who was up and down with her hands again.

However, when a gust of night wind blew, she suddenly realized, and when she looked down again, she was actually hanging in the air, and she was still moving forward, "This...... Where is this going? ”

Helian Sheng raised his lips and smiled, "Do you remember that cave at the beginning?" ”

Mu Xiang blinked her eyes several times, and her mind cleared up a lot, "Oh, that cave on Wowo Mountain!" ”

At the beginning, Helian Sheng didn't sleep in the middle of the night, flew to the top of the mountain with her, watched the sunrise, and lived in that cave at night.

Just thinking about it, Helian Sheng had already stopped, "I called someone to clean it up, take you to have a look." ”

He hugged Mu Xiang and stepped directly into the cave.

The temperature on the top of the mountain was very low, but when I entered the cave, I blocked the cold wind and immediately warmed up.

There was a pile of firewood in the cave, and after Helian Sheng put down the wood incense, he used a stick to pick up the wooden board that pressed the flames, and blew it again, and the fire immediately rushed up.

With the firelight, the situation in the cave can be seen clearly.

It was still the same furnishings, the bedding seemed to be new, it should have been brought from the ship, and belonged to them, except for a table with a wine jar resting on it.

"Do you still want to drink?" Mu Xiang really can't understand him, in the middle of the night, he ran here to drink?

He Liansheng got up and took the wine jar, bit off the lid handsomely, raised his head and took a big sip, and then, he suddenly broke Mu Xiang's face, and pressed his lips against her.

The spicy liquor slides from the mouth to the esophagus and warms the whole body.

After Helian Sheng finished feeding, he didn't let go of her immediately, but kissed for a while, and didn't let go of her until they were both out of breath.

At this time, the lips moistened by the wine were already red. Helian Sheng stared at her lips, only feeling that he was already drunk before he had taken a few sips of wine.

Mu Xiang's old face flushed, knocked off his hand, stopped looking at him, and turned to fiddle with the pile of firewood, "In the middle of the night, you robbed me here, wouldn't you just do that kind of thing?" ”

Thinking about it this way, she thought it was very likely.

When the two are together, this guy is always moving very loudly, and her screaming is also louder. But the place at home is small, and it is just enough to scare the children, and it will not be good if you rob the two old people.

When on the boat, they also try to pick out when it rains, which is louder and easy to hide.

"What do you say?" He replied, then sat down beside her and continued to drink, occasionally feeding her.

No matter how large the amount of Rao is woody wine, he can't withstand his hot feeding.

When the jar of wine was about to bottom, she suddenly found that the person next to her had fed her much more than he had drunk himself.

She drank almost half of the remaining half of the jar, until she was dizzy and fell softly into Helian Sheng's arms.

When the goal was reached, Helian Sheng threw away the wine jar, bent down and picked up Mu Xiang, and laid it on the wooden bed lightly, and his body was immediately covered.

Mu Xiang drank wine, her self-control was quite good, she knew that there was someone making trouble on her body, and she also knew that the person who made trouble was Helian Sheng, under the influence of alcohol, she did not struggle, but responded to him enthusiastically.

Perhaps because of the environment, or perhaps because the wine was particularly intoxicating tonight, she felt as if she were lying on a huge lotus leaf, which floated in the water, rising and falling with the fluctuations of the waves, sometimes being swept high by the waves, and sometimes falling into a pool of spring water.

I don't know how long the madness of this night lasted, Mu Xiang always woke up from his torture, and then fell asleep tired.

The fire in the cave has never been extinguished.

When the sky was dark, Mu Xiang felt that her body had left the wooden bed again.

She angrily accused: "Don't come again, I'll be wasted if I come again!" ”

Helian Sheng lowered his head and kissed her cheek shrunk in the quilt, and said with a smile: "If you want to come again, wait until tonight, we will come over again, now I will take you to see the sunrise, watch the sky statue for your husband, today will be a sunny day!" ”

After taking off Muxiang's clothes last night, she was wrapped in a big quilt by Helian Sheng naked and hugged out.

The morning breeze was very cool, but fortunately, the quilt was big enough to wrap her from head to toe without leaving a single gap.

The old big stone still sat there quietly, as if nothing had changed.

Helian Sheng hugged her, sat on the stone, let her sit on his lap, and stretched out his hand to gather the quilt for her, afraid that she would freeze.

Mu Xiang lay comfortably in his arms, she was so tired that after a while, she fell asleep again, until Helian Sheng shook her and whispered in her ear that the sun was coming out.

Mu Xiang looked up and saw that on the top of a mountain in the east, wisps of red glow were revealed, and a little trace of purple red rose slowly, from dark to bright, dyeing half of the sky red.

For some reason, her mood at the moment suddenly couldn't be calm, and she didn't feel sleepy.

The sun rises, a new day, a new beginning.

After a while, a round of red sun erupted, and the morning glow filled the sky in an instant, and the top of Wowo Mountain seemed to be draped in the glow.

In the early morning mountain breeze, there seems to be a few rays of sunshine.

Mu Xiang looked at it steadily, and suddenly remembered his two sons, "You brought me out, who will take care of the children?" ”

"Don't worry, with Chen's mother and magpie here, don't worry," If it wasn't arranged, could he take her to the top of the mountain overnight?

"Oh," she thought to herself, Helian Sheng wouldn't forget about this, but ...... "You told them to watch the children, wouldn't everyone know that you took me up the mountain?" ”

If he did something like that, others would have thought he was so hungry!

But how could Helian Sheng care about the eyes of others, as long as he held his mother, he would be satisfied.

Sitting here at this moment, it is natural to think of the scene of their first meeting.

That day, he stood on the second floor of Fushou Building, and saw her fighting for a passerby, so arrogant, pinching her waist and scolding people.

It's a bit spicy, but it's appealing.

Sometimes Helian Sheng would think that maybe it was from that time on, that he could no longer fit others in his eyes.

The sunlight pouring down from the top of the mountain sprinkled all over the mountain, spreading in front of him little by little, shining towards Yuhe Village at the foot of the mountain.

In the mountains and forests, the sound of birds is more and more, crisp and pleasant.

When the day dawns, you can see clearly, there are camellias in full bloom in the cold wind in the belly of the mountain, as well as the wild rhododendrons that are budding and about to open.

"Xianggong, what do you say my original world is like now," Mu Xiang touched the blood jade on his neck, looked at the red sun rising in the sky, and muttered.

Helian Sheng didn't speak immediately, but looked at the red sun like her, and after a long time, he said: "It doesn't matter what it was, the important thing is that now and in the future, Tangtang and the little gourd will grow up day by day, and we will grow old day by day. ”

Mu Xiang leaned into his arms, "I don't have to have an answer, what kind of truth is it, I don't want to know, sometimes I just think, maybe those in the past are all dreams, everything in this life is real." ”

She also wants to watch Tangtang and Little Gourd grow up, accompany them, and don't want to be separated for a day.

"Whether it's dreaming or real, I'm with you!"

The man's shoulders were broad and thick, like a thick wall, shielding her from the cold wind.

Mu Xiang took a deep breath, and her depressed mood suddenly dissipated, "Okay, then let's always be true to ourselves, hurry up and pack up our things and go back, they will definitely cry if they wake up and can't see me." ”

Motherhood is like a thread that connects her with the child tightly, and wherever she goes, she has to worry about her stomach.

Helian Sheng stretched his eyebrows and hugged her to get up, "Okay, let's go home!" ”

The well-fed man was naturally in a good mood, hugged Mu Xiang back to the cave, and dressed her with his own hands and combed her long hair.

There is even a comb here, which must have been prepared by Helian Sheng. I don't know how long this guy has been preparing.

On the way down the mountain, Mu Xiang didn't need to be hugged by him.

Although my waist is very sore, and my legs are sore, I just run in the morning and exercise, aerobic exercise!

Helian Sheng always followed her not far away, looking at her figure running in the morning mist, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

He is tall and steady, walking in the mountains, like a rare beauty.

And Mu Xiang, who walked in front, jumped up and down along the way, and after a few months of recuperation, his body was as slender and light as before, like a mountain elf.

It doesn't matter what others think, anyway, in Helian Sheng's eyes, she is a unique beauty.

Closer to the house, Mu Xiang's pace was faster, I don't know if it was a psychological effect, she seemed to hear the child's cry.

"Xianggong, I'll go back first, you go slowly!" As a mother, when she heard her child crying, of course she was anxious.

Helian Sheng didn't speak, he simply stood in place, watching her carry the hem of her skirt and run in the direction of the door.

The morning sun shone on her back, and the shadow stretched long, and because of the fast running, the long hair scattered behind her, flying with the hem of her skirt. Years later, whenever Helian Sheng recalled this scene, his heart was always full.

Life is like this, what more can a husband ask for!
