(43) Temptation

"I thought that you and the third uncle would only be busy with the affairs of the village, but when I went to the West Courtyard that day, I found that there are a lot of flowers and plants in your courtyard, I don't know if it is your preference, or the third uncle's?" Ling Wuxin said.

The flowers and plants in the courtyard are all planted by the father-in-law, and they are all precious and rare medicinal herbs and poisonous herbs, no one in the village understands medicine, and Langzhong in the market has rarely seen those precious varieties, so he has never guarded against anyone, I don't know if Ling Wuxin asked this intentionally or unintentionally. But Cheng Zhi is cautious, so naturally he can't tell the truth.

"The second brother is careful, the flowers in the courtyard are liked by the deceased lady, she has always been weak, but she only likes to play with those flowers and plants, to pass the time. My stepfather and I are both men, and we never cared about those flowers and plants. ”

Cheng Zhi has always been in a graceful posture and has a calm expression, it is difficult to see some clues from his face, and his words are so leaky, Ling Wuxin can not distinguish the truth of what he says for a while.

"The third brother and Aunt Fang are still so unfamiliar." Ling Wuxin heard him only call him "madam", not "stepmother", and knew that they were not close.

Cheng Zhi's heart is turbulent, his face is still indifferent, he has always been estranged from his wife, everything his father-in-law does is hidden from her, every time they meet, he just respectfully calls "Mrs.", only after her death, he has called her "mother-in-law" in front of others, and I don't want to pay attention to it at this time.

"Yes, my father-in-law rescued me from the hands of villains when I was young, but unfortunately I didn't remember my life experience for a long time, and he took pity on me for being lonely, so I recognized me as a righteous son. Madame is a kind and good-natured person, but after all, I am not Madame's own child, and I am a man, so I have never been close, and I am used to calling her only Madame. ”

Ling Wuxin saw that he remembered his life experience, patted him on the shoulder, and comforted: "Since you have forgotten, you can rest assured of the present, and the third uncle has no queen, he treats you like his own child, and you don't have to be too attached to the past." ”

Cheng Zhi was still smiling, but the corners of his eyes did not show any wrinkles.

"I see that the second brother is in great interest today, and the shop outside the village happens to have something to do, I wonder if the second brother is willing to go with me?"

Ling Wuxin naturally heard his shirking, and said casually: "You can go, but don't take me with you, I'm just afraid that a careless person like me will cause you trouble." ”

"Then I won't force it." Cheng Zhi raised his feet and walked in the direction of Zhuangwai, walked a few steps, and suddenly turned back to Ling Wuxin and said, "Second brother, don't be too humble, if you say that you are a careless person, I am afraid that there will be no more careful people in this world." The blue light in his eyes was sharper than that of a jackal.

Ling Wuxin just smiled and didn't respond.

When Cheng Zhi turned back to leave, the cold wind blew his dark blue robe and hunted.

Ling Wuxin squinted and shook his head, he didn't know why he liked to be so strange, that kind of color made his whole person look gloomy, like an old man in his seventies and eighties.

Out of the first village in the world, Cheng Zhi took off his robe and threw it to the entourage next to him: "It's dirty, take it and burn it." ”

The entourage did not dare to say much, but just did what was told.

Cheng Zhi glanced back at the plaque of the first village in the world, and several big characters were eye-catching and imposing.

He used to think that there was truth and kindness everywhere here, and he did regard himself as the third son here. And the moment he knew the truth, it was purgatory......

Cheng Zhi's originally calm and indifferent eyes were full of yin owls.

Mo Qingqian had already applied needles to Ling Wuxin's mother for seven days in a row, originally with her internal strength, it was difficult to insist on using needles for seven consecutive days, but here is a Ling Wuxin with deep internal strength, she is not as weak as she imagined.

She couldn't help but think of her father ten years ago, who also came back from a medical treatment and couldn't wake up in the room, so that he couldn't escape the fire that burned inexplicably in the Divine Doctor Valley.

As for himself, because Ling Wuxin was by his side, the situation was better than after his father used needles.

"What are you thinking?" Ling Wuxin saw that she was a little distracted, and asked out loud.

Mo lightly came back to his senses, seeing that Ling Wuxin had lost his internal strength again, but he didn't react at all, was he an old monster who had been cultivating in the mountains for hundreds of years?

"Why are you so young, but your internal strength is so deep?" Mo Qingqian couldn't help but ask.

Ling Wuxin showed an evil smile: "Because this son has to be instructed by a master, there will be a girl who will appear, and he needs this son to protect and protect her with this body's good martial arts, so this son has practiced peerless martial arts for more than 20 years to have such a ability today." ”

Don't look at him lightly and look at him like that, as soon as he heard it, he knew that he was lying, but when he heard it, he was touched in his heart.

It's just that this kind of touch was quickly dispelled by her recalling the picture she saw in Ling Wuxin's atrium that day, and her face turned a little colder: "Childe, don't make fun of me anymore, I'm afraid people will misunderstand." ”

Ling Wuxin knew that she must have gone to her room that day to see Mei Wugu and had a misunderstanding, he thought of the plan after that, so he was not in a hurry to explain, but said in a brisk tone: "Since my father found this cold jade bed, built this rockery, with the cold pool here, I was thrown into the cold pool water by him, day after day, year after year, if I don't want to be frozen to death in the cold pool, I can only practice crazy." ”

For such a statement, Mo is a little more credible. Originally, she should feel sorry for Ling Wuxin's past, but his casual and uninhibited appearance, and his words were so light, he didn't seem to take those to heart at all, she didn't know what to say, and the two of them suddenly fell silent.

The sound of beating from nowhere broke the silence of the two, Mo Qingqian's expression was a little unnatural, her eyes fell on the cold jade bed, she hurriedly said: "Your mother's head blood has been passed, just wait for her to wake up and recuperate, I will write a prescription for you, those herbs that are not easy to find, I will also help you pay attention." ”

The Gong family, it seems that they must go.

The Mo family and the Gong family used to be the most familiar with each other, but at this time she hadn't figured out how to face the Gong family, and she didn't know that the old people she knew were all fine.

"Then thank you girl for bothering, after so many days of hard work, the girl should go back and rest early." Ling Wuxin was still staring at her with the same eyes as before, but what he said was different from before.

Mo Qingqian thought that he was going to mention the matter of repaying his kindness again, but he didn't want to deal with it so simply, she was a little disappointed, and said in a cold tone: "Since I have made a move, I should do my best, and I will go to rest." ”

"The girl is really colder than this cold jade bed." Ling Wuxin's inexplicable words made Mo lightly leave.

Could it be because he was too cold, so he gave up so easily?

Mo Qingqian couldn't help but reach out and touch his face, whether he spoke too coldly, or the expression on his face was too cold. Realizing that she cared so much about what Ling Wuxin said now, she hurriedly put down her hand and left quickly. Fortunately, with his back to Ling Wuxin, he shouldn't have seen it.

Ling Wuxin watched Mo Qingqian stop and leave in a hurry, with a bright smile on her face, as if she was not completely blind to herself.
