This phenomenon didn't end until Xiao Man and Lu Li finished eating, listening to the two of them talking about some of the things that they didn't have, Xiao Man began to regret it, why did she compliment them?

is obviously very familiar with the temperament of the two people, but because Xiaoling and Zhang Xiuqin are different from the politeness of the past, and they are lost, naively thinking that they really don't care about the past anymore.

Yes, there is nothing wrong with Xiaoling and Zhang Xiuqin now, but it is too annoying to say one thing a thousand times.

Xiao Man rubbed his eyebrows, more and more remorseful.

"Ahem." Lu Li coughed lightly and interrupted a few times, got up and said, "It's not early, Xiaoman and I still have to go to Bishui Village, I'm sorry, I will leave first." ”

After speaking, Lu Li didn't look at the faces of the mother and daughter, and pulled Xiaoman up and walked out.

Walking out of the courtyard and leading the horse out, Xiaoman took Lu Li's hand and said a little embarrassedly: "Isn't it a little bad for us to be like this?" ”

"So what? They didn't dare say anything. ”

Well, sometimes power is a good thing, at least it doesn't make you feel encouraged anymore.

Picked up by Lu Li, Xiaoman swore five hundred times: "I must learn to ride a horse!" When I go back to Beijing, I must ride a horse by myself! ”

"You've said that no less than three hundred times." Lu Li tightened the reins of the horse with a blank face and clamped his legs, forcing the horse to run forward.

Xiao Manchu was speechless, biting his lower lip and not speaking.

In fact, as early as when he went to Beijing, Lu Li proposed to teach Xiaoman to ride a horse, and Xiaoman was also very interested at that time, and went to the martial arts arena with Lu Li, and specially chose a shorter docile horse.

However, as soon as Xiaoman got on the horse, her brain was blank, and she completely forgot the essentials that Lu Li taught her, not only did she not control the horse, but she almost threw the horse off.

Of course, Xiaoman is not a person who retreats after one attempt, and in the next few days, she went to the martial arts arena or the suburbs to practice horseback riding every day, but every time she died without a problem.

So until the day when the two of them were going back to Taoyuan County, Xiaoman still couldn't learn to ride a horse, so he could only ride a horse with Lu Li.

Thinking of the interesting things when he practiced horses before, Lu Li couldn't help laughing out loud, he leaned over slightly, tilted his head to look at Xiao Man, "Do you really want to learn to ride a horse?" ”

"Of course!" Xiao Man bit his lip and looked resentful, "It's just that the horse doesn't listen to me every time!" I told it to go east, it had to go west, I told it to stop, but it had to run forward! And they always want to dump me off! ”

At the mention of this, Lu Li laughed lowly again.

Xiao Man felt the vibration of the other person's chest, and the man's low laughter and burning breath lingered on the tips of her ears, her cheeks became hotter, and the pink spread all the way to her neck.

But this is not because of emotion, but because of shame.

"Don't laugh!" Xiao Man's cheeks bulged out and began to writhe in Lu Li's arms.

Lu Li finally stopped laughing, he straightened up, and said, "Okay, I won't laugh anymore." Since you want to learn to ride a horse, then let's practice well these days, maybe the horse in Beijing is not familiar with you, and tomorrow I will go to Taoyuan County to pick a good horse, you are fellow villagers, maybe it will listen to you. ”

Xiao Man snorted and muttered to himself: "What kind of fellow townsman, is it because the horse who went to Beijing is disobedient because he looks down on me?" Sling the bull. ”

Listening to the woman's whispered muttering, Lu Li couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips again, his eyes full of smiles.

The two talked and laughed, and then they arrived at Bishui Village.

At this time, most of the crops in the field had been sown, and everyone was busy planting vegetables in their yards, so the two rode into the village, but they saw a few old people chatting under the big tree at the entrance of the village, but they did not meet anyone else.

But it's okay to say hello to the villagers and delay time.

When they arrived at Su's house, Lu Li dismounted first, and then hugged Xiaoman down, and the two took down the packages they brought from Shangjing, tied the horse to the stump at the door, and then entered the door.

Pushing open the familiar small wooden door and seeing the familiar courtyard, Xiaoman breathed a sigh of relief, stopped at the door and looked at the courtyard, with indescribable feelings surging in his heart.

Obviously, he has only been away for a year, but looking at this small courtyard, Xiaoman actually feels like a world away.

"Wang-"

"Quack-"

The dog and duck in the yard barked at the same time, and Su Qi, who was busy in the house, hurriedly rushed out when he heard the sound, and he asked while wiping his hands and walking out, "Who is here?" ”

"Daddy!"

"Father-in-law!"

Xiao Man and Lu Li stepped forward to say hello at the same time, Su Qi was stunned at the door at first, looking at the two people in front of him in disbelief, he rubbed his eyes, and looked at them for a while.

He had only been away from Shangjing for a few months, and he originally thought that Lu Li and them would have to return for at least another year, and he would come back when Wangshu grew up, but he didn't expect it......

"You're back?!" Su Qi was overjoyed, and hurriedly leaned out to look behind the two, and asked vigorously, "What about Wangshu?" Didn't he come back with you? ”

Xiao Man couldn't help but pursed his lips when he heard this, and pretended to complain: "Dad, you just thought about Wangshu, and even forgot about your own daughter." ”

Su Qi smiled, subconsciously wiped the water droplets on his hands, and explained very palely: "Didn't I see you a long time ago, I didn't see Wangshu, so I asked!" What about Wangshu? Did he really not come with you? ”

Seeing that his father did not leave Wangshu in three sentences, Xiaoman was angry and funny, and he didn't know what to say.

Seeing this, Lu Li laughed lightly twice and explained: "Wangshu is still young, and Xiaoman and I will rush back to Beijing after a few days, so I didn't bring him with me." When the hope is bigger, we will bring him back to see you. ”

"Good, good, good!"

Anyway, as long as he can meet his grandson, it's fine!

Su Qi took the two of them into the house, and muttered endlessly: "Have you eaten?" Are you tired or not, do you want to rest for a while? ”

As he spoke, Su Qi walked around the room, rummaging through here and there, not knowing what he was doing.

As soon as he asked, he said a little embarrassedly: "The last time I went to Beijing, your neighbor, that is, Lord Wei, gave me a box of particularly good tea, I was reluctant to drink it on weekdays, and when you came today, I took it out." ”

"Dad, we're just here to sit, don't be so busy." Xiao Man got up and walked to Su Qi's side, forcibly dragged him back to the chair and sat down, and then said, "Keep your tea for yourself, Lu Li and I don't like tea." ”

Su Qi sat down, the smile on the corner of his mouth never stopped, looked at Lu Li, and then looked at Xiaoman, very happy.

"By the way, Lu Li and I came back this time to bring you something." Xiao Man suddenly remembered the business here, she opened the package, unfolded them one by one in front of Su Qi, and said: "This is tea, cloth, and some silver tickets, this is some scattered silver taels, you put them away first." ”

Looking at several silver tickets worth several hundred taels, Su Qi subconsciously wanted to refuse, but before he could speak, Xiao Man opened another cloth bag and introduced: "This is for the eldest mother and Xiao Ling, both of which are popular materials during the time in Beijing, and there are a few clothes made by our embroidery workshop, which are suitable for this season." ”

Although these were all things for Zhang Xiuqin's mother and daughter, they should have taken them out when they were in Taoyuan County, but in that case, it was inevitable that Xiaoling would mistakenly think that they were showing off, so Xiaoman had to keep silent.

Now it is handed over to Su Qi, firstly, it is to be smoothly transferred to them, and secondly, it is also to make Xiaoling and Zhang Xiuqin treat Su Qi better.

Although Lu Li has been approved by the emperor and does not have to live in Shangjing for a long time, they do not plan to live in Bishui Village permanently, so they will have to trouble Xiao Ling to take care of Su Qi in the days to come, Xiao Man feels guilty in his heart, and can only make up for it in money.

Fortunately, Su Qi didn't care about these, he put these things aside with a smile, and then began to talk about the flowers and plants he raised, it seems that as Su Xiaoling said, he has been raising flowers and grass all this time, and his life is easy and happy.

At the end, Su Qi said again: "Your house on the mountainside has not been inhabited for more than a year, and it will definitely not be able to live in it for a while, anyway, your aunt will not come back tonight, why don't you and Lu Li go to our house first to stay together?" ”

It's still early, Xiao Man pondered for a moment, and looked sideways at Lu Li, "Let's go to the mountainside, it's still early, and it's too late for us to clean up, what do you say?" ”

Although she had been living in the Su family before she got married, she was a little uncomfortable with letting her live now.

Lu Li, who saw that he was full of thoughts, naturally nodded, "Okay." ”

Saying that, Lu Li looked at Su Qi and said respectfully: "Father-in-law, don't worry, let's go up and have a look first, if it is really uninhabitable, we will trouble you again." ”

"Then I'll go with you."

Xiao Man hesitated for a moment, and then responded.

The three of them led the horses on the road, and Su Qi introduced: "You don't know, since you went to Shangjing, several families have moved to the mountainside, some of them are from our village, and some are from other villages. Everyone said that this mountain has good feng shui, and they all came here to build a new house. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Man had a faint bad feeling in her heart, but in front of Su Qi, she was not embarrassed to say it, but turned her head to look at Lu Li.

When he found that the other party was also looking at him with a stern face, the sense of uneasiness in Xiao Man's heart became more and more intense.

In the midst of this uneasiness, the three of them finally reached the mountainside.

The hut was lonely on the mountainside, the surrounding fences and wooden doors were gone, and the few stones in the yard that were used as stone benches did not know where they had gone, and now only the pit marks on the ground could be seen.

When I opened the door, the beds, cabinets, tables, chairs, benches, and chicken coops in the firewood room were all gone.

Su Qi stood at the door, Xiao Man and Lu Li stood in the empty room, the three of them stared wide-eyed, not knowing what was going on.

Just when the three of them were surprised, a slightly sharp female voice suddenly sounded outside: "Hey! Isn't this the father-in-law of the grandfather of the country? How did you get time to get on this mountainside? ”
