Chapter 728: The Farmhouse Courtyard

I have to say that the eldest sister moved quickly, and after only a short while, all the things that should be changed in this best room have been changed.

Although the bedding on the bed is not new, it does smell like a honey locust, presumably washed and dried before.

It was indeed a cool and capable peasant woman, Concubine Wu sat on the edge of the bed and couldn't help but smile.

Back then, I also thought that I might marry an honest country man, and then clean up the house so neatly and live such a peaceful life, but what people think is always different from what you think in real life.

Nangong Ming poured a bowl of tea, and then handed it to Concubine Wu in person, and smiled gently: "What do you want?" Do you feel like you're back in Liujia Village again? ”

Concubine Wu looked up at Nangong Ming, how could he see what she was thinking, could he really know himself so well?

However, Concubine Wu didn't say anything, took the tea bowl, and drank it all in a big gulp. I didn't think it would make me feel thirsty.

Drinking tea with a faint earthy taste, I only felt inexplicably moved. But in the end, Concubine Wu only came, "This tea is so delicious!" ”

Nangong Ming smiled, "You rest for a while, I'll go get some water and come in, you wash first!" Riding in the carriage on the way, I must have been very tired. Then he turned and went out of the house.

Then Concubine Wu heard the sound of water from the well outside the house, and then heard the eldest sister's crisp laughter. When Nangong Ming came in, he brought two wooden barrels, one bucket of hot water and one bucket of cold water. Concubine Wu quietly watched Nangong Ming walk behind the curtain, and then pour water into the bathtub.

Then she went out again, and Concubine Wu looked at a flower curtain in the corner of the room, and her heart was sour.

In the countryside, there is no screen, which family is willing to pay for that thing, all of them are pulled with a curtain, and some people don't even have a curtain.

Concubine Wu got up and walked behind the curtain, and sure enough, she saw a medium-sized bath bucket, which was not very big, but it looked like it was freshly made.

It was clean, and the hot water in the barrel was tempting. Concubine Wu felt that the earthy smell of her body really had to be washed.

When Nangong Ming entered the house, he saw Concubine Wu standing in front of the bucket in a daze. I don't remember how long it's been since I've seen her like this, and I can't help but have fun, maybe it's the right thing to bring her out this time. It's just that the thought of the possible danger makes me feel uneasy again.

"You wait a while, I'll go fetch two more buckets of water, and you can wash up properly." Nangong Ming walked to the edge of the wooden barrel, and then carefully poured the water in his hand into the bath bucket.

Watching the water slowly pour into the bucket, Concubine Wu on the side unconsciously had a faint layer of pink on her face. "Hui'er, you're so good-looking!"

Concubine Wu made Nangong Ming blush when she suddenly said this, and glanced at Nangong Ming angrily,

"The water doesn't need to be mentioned anymore, it's enough. Too much is also a waste, this is not like in the palace, where there is a lot of water. It's not easy for the eldest sister to boil water, so let's do it first! ”

After speaking, he will go to the dresser, Kairu will take off all the jewelry on his head, and then let a head of black hair fall over his shoulders.

"Get out! I'm going to wash it first! Although I am grateful to Nangong Ming for helping him get bath water with the respect of the emperor, gratitude and affection are two different things. It's hard for Concubine Wu to have a good face for Nangong Ming, it's good if she doesn't make noise.

Nangong Ming's face froze, but looking at Concubine Wu, who had beautiful black hair, she just quietly carried the bucket out of the house.

Nangong Ming stayed outside the house, listening to the movement in the house, knowing that she had already entered the bathtub and knew that she had started to wash. I couldn't help but feel warm in my heart, and the water she washed was carried by herself.

The eldest sister on the side was choosing vegetables in the yard, and when she saw Nangong Ming guarding outside the house, she couldn't help laughing. said loudly: "This son, your lady is so squeamish, this is a husband and wife, what are you afraid of!" ”

Nangong Ming smiled, the smile was very beautiful, how good it would be if it was really a husband and wife! I can also stay in the house and watch my daughter-in-law take a good bath. "Eldest sister doesn't know, my lady is thin-skinned!"

The eldest sister smiled sharply, and the work in her hand did not stop: "This new daughter-in-law is thin-skinned, and in a few years, she will give birth to a few babies, so she will naturally not be so thin-skinned." ”

Nangong Ming smiled and didn't say anything more. But I couldn't help but fantasize in my heart, if Hui'er is really his new daughter-in-law and really gives birth to a baby with himself, can the two really be happy all the time?

Concubine Wu in the house sat in the bathtub, tears falling for some reason, whose fault is this? In Nangong Ming's words, no one is wrong, he just gets back the love he once lost, but this is too cruel for Mo Li for the two children.

Is it true that you shouldn't live a new life, and what you gain by reliving a life is far more than what you lose. Now faced with a dilemma, is it doomed, and you are a mistake? Nangong Ming, let him give up on himself, unless he dies.

And let Mo Li forget himself? What about letting the two children forget about themselves? It seems to be even more cruel, but now Concubine Wu can't care much about it, she just hopes that Mo Li can live well no matter when.

Concubine Wu was eating the simple peasant dishes on the table, and her heart was heavy, and Nangong Ming looked at Hui Er who had a cold face since she came in by herself. couldn't help but say tentatively: "But that eldest sister's words made you unhappy?" ”

Concubine Wu was still quietly eating the contents of the bowl, and she didn't want to say a word. Nangong Ming was not angry, and continued to accompany him carefully: "I won't talk nonsense in the future, but you also know that we are staying together, is it possible that I said that you are my sister, and no one will believe me when I go out like this!" Besides, you're my wife, and I'm not wrong to say that! ”

Concubine Wu gulped the rice in the bowl, although the rice was not as delicate as the palace and was a little rough, but Concubine Wu felt that there was a sense of sweetness. "You can say what you like, it has nothing to do with me!"

Nangong Ming really didn't understand why she changed her face so quickly, when she first arrived before, the joy in her eyes was gone, so quickly. "You sleep in bed at night, and I just sleep underground." After speaking, Nangong Ming got up, and then began to lay the floor.

After Concubine Wu finished eating the food on the table, she knew that Nangong Ming didn't use much, so she must have been unhappy, so she didn't want to eat it. But if you don't eat enough, you will definitely be hungry after a while.

But if she wanted to open her mouth to persuade Nangong Ming to eat more, Concubine Wu couldn't open her mouth. In the end, Concubine Wu could only secretly put away the remaining steamed buns on the table. Then I cleaned up the food on the table and brought it out on a tray.

When Concubine Wu pushed open the door, she saw the woman eating with her man, and the two children next to her were eight or nine years old, and the family was eating happily in the courtyard.

The woman always put the delicious food in the man's bowl and the child's bowl, but the man smiled innocently and put it back in the woman's bowl. The two of them pushed a piece of meat for a while, but the woman was angry, and the man smiled and ate it.

I don't know why Concubine Wu's eyes are red, just such a piece of meat can make the family eat so happily, but she has a lot of meat, but she can't feel this happiness.

The woman noticed Concubine Wu and said with a smile: "Madame, don't bother, I'll collect these dishes by myself, why bother Madame?" ”R1152
