It was getting late and late, Yao Fangyu took Nangong Jin out of the beach and found a shop with some characteristics in the city, and the two talked politely and smiled politely, always maintaining a polite distance.

After the meal, Nangong Jin sent Yao Fangyu back to the Nanhai faction. When he returned to the inn, Li Mo was sitting in the room in the most comfortable position, blowing the sea breeze in front of the window, with a table of dishes in front of him, drinking wine comfortably.

"Ah, why did you come back?" Li Mo was surprised when he saw him enter the door, "This time, it's not embarrassing or embarrassing." ”

"What's embarrassing?" Nangong Jin sat opposite him, looked at the dishes on the table, poured himself some wine, and ate it.

Li Mo looked at him and said with a smile: "If there is nothing to talk about, you will not stay for dinner, it seems that there is something to talk about." Haha, after dinner with Miss Yao, there is nothing to talk about? ”

Nangong Jin lowered her head to eat the food, as if she hadn't eaten enough just now, "You seem to be very experienced." ”

"Hahaha, I'm also here at your age." Li Mo felt even more interesting when he saw him like this.

Nangong Jin said casually: "Then why didn't you get married?" ”

The atmosphere was strangely quiet, Nangong Jin seemed to realize that he had said something wrong, took a sip of wine, and pretended not to find anything and said, "This wine is good, local in the South China Sea?" ”

Li Mo also took a sip and nodded, "It's good." Suddenly smiled, "It stands to reason that I can't sit and drink with you like this." After a pause, he continued: "Because, I am a lowly and official slave. ”

Nangong Jin was stunned, didn't know what to do for a long time, and finally apologized with an embarrassed expression: "I'm sorry, I ......." ”

Li Mo smiled: "What is the second young master sorry for?" The Nangong clan is my main family, and the master has not made these things public, but directly accepted me as an apprentice. I don't want my children and grandchildren to be slaves for generations. I'm afraid they won't have as much luck as me to meet Master. ”

"Senior Brother Li, I didn't mean anything, I'm sorry, I ......." Obviously, the other party is a cheap person, but it makes Nangong Jin feel at a loss.

Li Mo didn't seem to care, "Few people in Pingyang know about this, except for Senior Brother, everyone else ......, hehe, you are the first person I told personally." ”

"Senior Brother Li, you don't need to say it." When Nangong Jin spoke, he felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly added: "I only know that Senior Brother Li is my fellow senior brother." As he spoke, he picked up the wine beside him and filled it for Li Moman, "No matter what, make amends to my senior brother first." Pick up your glass, "Do it first." ”

Li Mo looked at him, smiling, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes, "Master confessed, you can't drink, stop drinking this cup, let's get you some rose dew." ”

"Rose dew? Forget it, I'll drink the soup anyway. ”

Li Mo also took a sip of the wine that Nangong Jin had filled for him, and asked with a smile: "Will you go back to Quanzhou tomorrow?" ”

Nangong Jin hesitated, and said honestly: "I thought that agreeing or disagreeing was nothing more than two options. Now, I don't even know if it's the wrong one. ”

"Alas, woman. I heard someone say, women, it's better not to guess, because you can't guess. But if you ask her, she'll ask you to guess. If her heart is in you, that's fine, if not, then ....... Therefore, the best way to solve the problem is not to pay attention to them. ”

Nangong Jin thought about it and said uncertainly: "I'm too, don't you care?" As if he was afraid that Li Mo would not believe it, he explained: "She hasn't given me a chance, even if she ...... before, everyone said that it was just to help." Although, I don't know why I'm helping with this. He paused again and whispered, "I think, does she have a crush on me?" ”

"You don't like her?" Li Mo looked at him and wanted to laugh.

Nangong Jin said with little confidence: "This, how can you say it......, I think she is very smart, at least smarter than me." Also, she, well, she's been beautiful since she was a child, and she's still beautiful, and she speaks in a nice voice. Good temper and loves to laugh. I—What do I say....... I didn't do anything, though. And, she really didn't like me. ”

"Do you know ...... her and her master?"

"I don't know what she did with her master, but I think she has her master in her heart." When Nangong Jin said this, her heart was a little sour, thinking about it like this, it seemed that Yao Fangyu shouldn't have a good impression of herself.

"They will never be possible. Xu Baoshen's situation, you know. Li Mo continued.

Nangong Jin sighed, looking lost, "If she says she doesn't agree with our business, that's her choice, as long as she's happy." I could hear that she really didn't want to leave the South China Sea. I ......, at least for now, I still think she's very ......, and I don't know what to do when I see her. But we haven't started, we have to let go, and we have to let go. ”

"Oh? Yes, it's quite open. Li Mo smiled and nodded.

Nangong Jin smiled self-deprecatingly, "Senior Brother Li is joking, I haven't gotten it before, where is there anything I can't see?" Then he shook his head, "Now, I really don't know what to do?" ”

"That is, I didn't agree, I didn't disagree? Ah Jin, why do you have to ask her to give an attitude? Li Mo looked at Nangong Jin, "Do you want to hear about my harvest today?" ”

Nangong Jin laughed, "I know that Senior Brother went to inquire, Senior Brother said that it is." ”

Li Mo was interested, and said with a smile: "Then senior brother will first talk about the public version of Miss Yao, it is estimated that there are many things, you should know." ”

"Miss Yao's father was a naval officer, and her mother, according to Yao's family, was the daughter of a peasant from a border village, and she had an older sister who was four years older than Miss Yao. Back then, after Miss Yao's mother became pregnant with Miss Yao, her father went to fight the Japanese and never returned. A few years later, his mother died in a Japanese invasion, leaving the two Yao sisters. At that time, it was a fellow sailor, General Liang Lie, who took them in. However, General Liang often went to sea to fight, and he couldn't take the two sisters with him, so he entrusted them to Xu Baoshen, a native of Nanhaimen, who was said to be his father's friend. At that time, Xu Baoshen had not yet married. It is said that Xu Baoshen pleaded with Ying Lan, the head of the sect at the time, and asked to accept the two sisters as apprentices and worship under the Nanhai Gate, on the grounds that his father was an anti-Japanese hero, and the sailor General Liang proved it. Whatever the reason, in short, the head of Ying agreed. At that time, Ms. Yao was only three or four years old. Miss Yao was abducted when she was eight years old, and the day she was abducted happened to be Xu Baoshen's wedding. Speaking of this, Li Mo paused, glanced at Nangong Jin, and saw that Nangong Jin seemed to be thinking something, smiled, and continued,

"When she was ten years old, Miss Yao was finally found. Unfortunately, Miss Yao's sister died before she returned to Nanhai, and she was only thirteen years old when she died, and it is said that the cause of death was typhoid fever. You're right, Miss Yao is very smart. Before the age of eighteen, he had become famous in the South China Sea. There are many reasons for becoming famous, strong martial arts, and several times on behalf of the new generation of the South China Sea to participate in several competitions, almost without defeat; To save people in danger, in order to save the villagers, there was a person behind the palace to block the widows; Brave and strategic, he once offered advice to the government and caught the Japanese spies who had infiltrated the South China Sea City. In addition, she often helps the poor people, and her help is not to give money directly, but to give them a way to make a living, and even now, she still has a good reputation as a bodhisattva among the poor people. To say, before Miss Yao was twenty years old, it should be said that she was perfect, and she was a representative of the Nanhai faction. ”

Li Mo took a sip of wine to moisten his throat, "If she got married at that time, then there would be no future." Since the age of eighteen, there have been people proposing marriage. Of course, the status of the man's family who came to propose marriage is also getting higher and higher because of Miss Yao's reputation. At the age of twenty, General Liang also proposed marriage to his youngest son. For some reason, Miss Yao didn't agree. Later, as I got older, there were fewer people who proposed marriage. I don't know when, there was a rumor that Miss Yao seduced her master Xu Baoshen, but at first no one believed it, but Miss Yao never married, and often followed Xu Baoshen around to socialize, and some people slowly believed it. In the past few years, it has become more and more popular, and by the year before last, Miss Yao could no longer stay in the South China Sea, so she was given the status of a big disciple to leave the South China Sea and deal with the affairs of the South China Sea faction. On your way to Tatar, she returned to the South Seas. Because at that time, the Nanhai faction reported that our Nangong clan proposed to marry Miss Yao, and the two parties had made a marriage contract. ”

After a pause, Nangong Jin nodded, smiled and said, "This is the public version, what about the facts?" ”

Li Mo smiled: "Facts? It should be said that doubts. First, Miss Yao's father only knows his surname Yao, and he doesn't know what his name is. It is said that he is an anti-Japanese hero, but not much is known in the South China Sea, and almost all the deeds are from the mouth of General Liang and even Xu Baoshen. Especially the Yao family, who was a hero, not only didn't mention it, but they didn't even recognize the sisters back then. When Miss Yao's parents passed away, Yao's family and uncles were there, and the strange thing is that it was not her relatives who took her in, but General Liang. The Yao family recognized them, or after Miss Yao became famous, they just acquiesced. Including this proposal, they received the gift, but they sent Miss Yao's eight characters through the South China Sea. Second, Miss Yao's mother, the daughter of a peasant, does not know what her maiden name is. Moreover, in terms of time, there were no Japanese pirates entering Nanhai City that year. Of course, it is also possible that when she left the city, she happened to be killed by the Japanese invaders, which may be the case. But if you die, where will you be buried? If it is said that Miss Yao's father was buried in the sea, this makes sense, and his death was testified by General Liang. What about Miss Yao's mother? How come you don't even have a surname? Who the hell said she was dead? Third, Miss Yao's sister, when she died, was not yet an adult, and according to the customs of the South China Sea, no tomb was built. But a little girl who passed away at the age of thirteen not only has a tomb and a monument. The strange thing is that he was actually buried outside the main hall of the South China Sea Sect. The Nanhai faction obviously has its own special cemetery, why? ”

Nangong Jin frowned when she heard this, staring at Li Mo, "Senior brother means, first, Miss Yao's father is not the Yao family?" Or, isn't there such a person at all? Second, her mother didn't die? Third, what's going on with her sister? After thinking about it, he shook his head, "Could it be that there is a problem with Fang Wei's identity?" Otherwise, why make all this? She was so young at the time that she didn't know anything at all. ”

Li Mo smiled mysteriously, "These are her three legendary relatives." She herself, speaking of which, you also admit that she really doesn't like you, and her sweetheart is Xu Baoshen. She was raised by Xu Baoshen, it is not impossible that she will like her, and it is normal for Mrs. Han to dislike her. You must know that she can go back to the South China Sea now because she agreed to the marriage with the Nangong family, in other words, if she doesn't agree, she can't go back to the South China Sea at all. Therefore, she would ask you for such a favor before, because she wanted to go back to the South China Sea and knew how she could go back to the South China Sea, and there was only one reason why she returned to the South China Sea at that time, Xu Baoshen was forty-five years old. After a pause, he looked at Nangong Jin evilly, "Are you a little angry?" ”

Nangong Jin took a breath and smiled bitterly for a while, "Later, her master went to Jingzhou to look for her." Shaking his head, "Said I would help." ”

Li Mo laughed, "So, why are you asking her if she wants to?" Can she say no? If you don't want to, you're going to be driven away again. ”

"Forced. Alas, I didn't expect her to like her master so much. ”

"Xu Baoshen is a great and kind person, and there is more than such a little apprentice who likes him. His status in the hearts of women in the South China Sea is much higher than that of your eldest brother in Jindi, and there are only a lot more crushes, hahaha. ”

Nangong Jin suddenly laughed, "Senior brother is really amazing, he can find so much in one day." ”

Li Mo laughed, "Silly boy." Do you eat white rice when Seifudo eats? These things were almost known before the marriage was proposed. So, do you really think that with your face, Master will recognize you? Or do you think that your business is loosely investigated? Hahahaha, we don't usually shoot. ”

"Okay." Nangong Jin scratched her head, "The family will propose marriage, that is, there is an answer?" ”

"Why do you want an answer?" Li Mo said with a smile: "She is the eldest disciple of the Nanhai Sect, and you are the second son of our Nangong clan. If you like it again, then it's fine, why do you care so much? She didn't know it herself anyway. As for the fact that she likes her master, this kind of thing, if I want to say that it is just a temporary obsession, it can't be done anyway. When she gets married, you will have a long time, especially after a woman has children, and she will not want to wash her master and send her master to it at that time. Li Mo knocked on the table with a smile, "So, do you think you're stupid?" ”

Nangong Jin thought about it, and seemed to have some truth, and said depressedly: "Then why don't you keep saying it?" ”

"It's okay to come here, I'm going to tell you before, do you believe it?"

Nangong Jin pursed her lips and smiled unnaturally, "It seems to be." So, well, should I make her like me a little bit? His face flushed, and he asked in a low voice: "My daughter-in-law, I always have to hurt myself, don't you?" ”

"Hehe, happy? Silly boy. Li Mo squinted at him, and took out a token from his arms, "Don't throw this thing around." Although everyone recognizes you now, it won't be fun if someone takes this thing to take your name. ”

Nangong Jin didn't expect that this token of the Jingzhou Hall Master would be here with Li Mo, so he was embarrassed, "I, I'm not, um......." ”

Seeing that Nangong Jin didn't know what to say, Li Mo laughed again, "Song Ran has always been upright, but in fact, it's not just him, not everyone can accept what you do." Therefore, in this world, there are more people who may not like you than those who like you. I know you don't care, so act like you don't care. He pointed to the sign, "Put it away." ”

Nangong Jin thought about it and was embarrassed to take back the token.

"Senior brother, say one more thing." Li Mo saw that he was still cooperating, and was ready to be a peacemaker, "The gentleman is harmonious but different, it is normal for you and Song Ran to have different views on things, seeking common ground while reserving differences, this is also the basic quality of the superior." So, in the future, you don't have to meet him to quarrel, right? ”

"I don't want to. Alas, I understand. ”
