Chapter 54: Showdown
Lin Changsheng looked at Mu Jiu in disbelief, his eyes sharp, "You actually asked me to go back?" ”
Accustomed to seeing the gentle Lin Changsheng, this kind of Lin Changsheng made Mu Jiu's heart worry, but he pretended to be calm and nodded, "Hmm." ”
Before she finished speaking, she saw Lin Changsheng walking towards her.
Mu Jiu's heart raised in his throat, "You ......"
What does he want to do!
Lin Changsheng was a step away in front of her, he paused in his steps, his cold face was surging, his black eyes were deep and sharp, and he locked on her.
A huge sense of oppression hit, and Mu Jiu almost used all his strength to make himself barely stand firm.
She has never been greedy for life and afraid of death, even if she shuttles through the palace, she has never been afraid of anyone.
For the first time in two lives, I felt scared.
The two were at a stalemate, and neither of them said a word first.
In the end, it was Lin Changchang who sighed and was defeated, "What the hell do you think?" ”
Mu Jiu couldn't answer him, so he had to pretend to be stupid, "After curing the old lady Zhang, I'll go back after making money!" Don't worry, I will definitely pay you back if I have the money! ”
Lin Changsheng smiled helplessly, this girl!
If you don't force her, she will keep pretending to be stupid!
"I like you, and when I go back, I will ask my father to propose to your mother."
Boom Boom –
Mu Jiu only felt a thunderbolt passing by, and his heartbeat became more and more uncontrollable, and he couldn't tell whether it was excitement or horror.
The person I like also likes me, the most beautiful plot, ill-fated, but she doesn't dare to accept it easily.
Reason finally triumphed over emotion, and Mu Jiu immediately refused, "Don't!" ”
Lin Changsheng was anxious, "Why." ”
"We're not suitable." When Mu Jiu said this, his heart became even more stuffy.
The situation in the capital is there, she can't be so selfish.
Mu Jiu didn't dare to look at Lin Changsheng's eyes, for fear that if he didn't give up, he would hurt him.
"Why not?" Lin Changsheng didn't believe Mu Jiu's answer.
Mu Jiu took a breath and relentlessly, "There are not so many whys, if you really want the answer, it means that I already have someone else in my heart, you can go." ”
Lin Changsheng was hit hard, his straight waist bent down all of a sudden, his shoulders collapsed, and the whole person was like a deflated ball, wilting.
Mu Jiu didn't open his eyes and didn't look at him.
It is best not to give hope, lest the hope be as high as it is, and how deep the despair will be in the end!
"I've made it very clear, you go back, I'll protect myself."
Lin Changsheng drooped his head, like an abandoned puppy that had lost his spirit, and left Mu Jiu's room with heavy steps.
Mu Jiu hurriedly closed the door as fast as he could, throwing himself into the quilt.
I don't want to cry, I can't cry, it's just a man, how can it be important to have a grandfather!
……
On the morning of the third day, Mu Jiu went to Zhang's Mansion to check the pulse of Mrs. Zhang, and after confirming that he was cured, he asked him for ten taels of silver for the diagnosis.
Old lady Zhang happily took out twenty taels of silver.
Mu Jiu returned the ten taels, "I only accept what I deserve, and the rest will not be rewarded." ”
"You saved the old man's life, why didn't you do it!" Old Lady Zhang insisted on sending the silver to Mu Jiu.
Mu Jiu insisted on not taking it, Old Lady Zhang insisted on giving it, pushed it over and pushed it over, Old Man Zhang turned his face blank, "I said Miss Mu, do you look down on my old man?" I don't even want the silver I gave, isn't my old man's life worth twenty taels? ”
Mrs. Zhang's sharp eyes ran over, "Dad! People don't want it, it's not that we don't give it! ”
"You go down first!" Old Man Zhang's tone was a little heavy, and Mrs. Zhang had to leave unwillingly.
Mu Jiu explained, "It's the fault of the underneath, I actually gave the old man such a feeling, but I said that ten taels is ten taels, and you can't ask for one more copper plate, this is the principle."
It's not that I look down on the old man, on the contrary, I like the old man very much, and your life is more than twenty taels, and you deserve more, but if the old man also likes to be here, don't use ten taels of silver to sympathize with me, I don't need it. ”
What else can Old Man Zhang say, he had to put away the silver, and it was difficult to hide his loss.
Mu Jiu smiled, "If the old man has the heart to help, then help him find a Lingzhi buyer, by chance I am lucky enough to get a century-old Ganoderma lucidum, and it is difficult to sell in a small place." ”
"Why don't you sell it to me?" Old Man Zhang suddenly came to his senses, "Maybe it can be used next time." ”
Mu Jiu was speechless, he wanted to be understandable, why did he say that he would use it for himself next time, this is not to curse himself for being sick! But if Mr. Zhang wants it, she doesn't have to find a buyer again.
Mu Jiu ran to the inn, retreated from the room, and ran to Zhangfu with a basket of pineapples.
When Mu Jiu put a whole Ganoderma lucidum in front of Old Man Zhang, his eyes were straight, and he sighed, "My old man has lived for decades, and I have never seen such a big Ganoderma lucidum." ”
Mu Jiu had seen a lot of good things in the palace, but Lingzhi could grow to such a big size, it was indeed of the highest quality.
Old Man Zhang happily gave one hundred and twenty taels.
This time, Mu Jiu took it calmly.
After all, if such a thing is taken to the state capital, it can be sold at a higher price, and Mr. Zhang will not lose money whether he uses it himself or sells it.
Out of Zhangfu, Mu Jiu went to Qianzhuang to exchange one hundred taels for a silver ticket, and then went to the car dealer to hire a carriage and went straight to Wanbao Town.
When I arrived in Wanbao Town, I bought some food, and then changed to an ox cart to return to Mujia Village, and got off at a certain distance from Mujia Village.
Three days and finally back!
A city can be a village because of a person's liking.
Because of his concern for Li Xiaotao and Mu Hongli, Mu Jiu had a sense of belonging to Mujia Village.
Thinking of the well-behaved Mu Hongli, Mu Jiu quickened his pace.
But before she got home, she saw Mu Liufu standing in front of her door from a distance, wearing a red floral dress, and she could see from her back that she must be arrogant at this time.
Mu Hongli leaned against the door, his little face was angry, and he yelled at Mu Liufu, "Don't go too far!" At the beginning, your business was that you walked too much at night and saw ghosts, and today you don't want to speak ill of my sister here! ”
Say something bad?
Mu Jiu glanced at the firewood leaning against Aunt Mu Jiu's wall, hid the burden and pineapple in it, and then hurriedly ran home and stood beside Mu Hongli.
She was thin, but much taller than Mu Liufu.
Lowering his head, he looked down at Mu Liufu, "You bullied him?" ”
Mu Liufu laughed loudly, and the laughter was very strange, "Hahaha! I said I haven't seen you for the past few days, Mu Hongli said that you are sick at home, don't let me go in to see, and now you are back from outside, Mu Jiu, tell me where you have been in the past few days, did you go to a private meeting with a man! ”
Hehe, don't say she doesn't know what's going on yet!
Mu Jiu sneered in his heart, understood the probability, and said in the same gloomy, "Mu Liufu, grandpa didn't tell you a word, dogs look down on people, what kind of people look at others like this!"
Do you want to meet men in private and want to be crazy, so you can say this about me, I'm sick, but can't I go out to the bathroom? My brother doesn't know that it's normal for me to go to the toilet, is it possible that you go to the toilet and you should tell your brother first? ”
"You!" Mu Liufu was speechless, stunned and didn't know how to refute, and finally, he squeezed out a sentence in a panic, "But I haven't seen you in the past few days, you are clearly not in Mujia Village!" ”
"Why don't we go to Lizheng to evaluate the theory, how can there be a girl who is not out of the cabinet all day long, only staring at her cousin's whereabouts? As a girl who has not left the cabinet, can't I stay at home when I am not working? Why do you have to see it? ”
Mu Liufu's eyes flashed, and when he went to Lizheng, she must have suffered the loss.
Can't go!
glared at Mu Jiu hatefully, turned around and ran, "Mu Jiu, you wait for me, don't let me catch your pigtails!" ”
"It's better than someone having a private meeting with Lin Baosheng and being discovered! In other words, didn't the Lin family hire you, why didn't they take you over for a long time? ”
Poke people's hearts, who wouldn't?
As soon as Mu Jiu poked it, Mu Liufu's eyes were so angry that his eyes were scarlet, like a defeated rooster, but he was helpless if he didn't accept it!
What she is most worried about is that her marriage with Lin Baosheng will change!
……
After Mu Liufu left, Mu Hongli hugged Mu Jiu, "Sister! You're finally back! ”
"Sorry for worrying you, you wait first."
Mu Jiu let go of Mu Hongli, went to the firewood side and took out the burden and pineapple, and the two went home and closed the door.
Mu Hongli didn't even look at the pineapple, but stared at the burden excitedly, his eyes were shining, and he swallowed his saliva unconsciously.
Mu Jiu smiled knowingly, no matter how mature he was, he was just a child, and he would look forward to delicious food like other children.
"Guess what my sister brought?"
Mu Hongli flatteringly hugged Mu Jiu's arm and said coquettishly, "Good sister, don't guess, it's good to eat directly." ”
Well, the child is so cute, her heart melted, and she threw the burden directly to Mu Hongli, "Leave a little for my mother." ”
"Yes!"
Mu Hongli took the burden and opened it, but he moved quickly but did not look impatient.
Mu Jiu nodded with satisfaction, the son can be taught!
After Mu Hongli ate the food, the sister and brother chatted for a while, and Mu Jiu took him to Lin Shifu's house together.
I knocked on the door for a long time, but no one opened it.
Mu Jiu was a little lost and left with Mu Hongli.
She had just left, and the doorway crept open, and a pair of deep eyes followed her back until she disappeared into the alley.
In the courtyard, Lin Shifu patted Lin Changsheng's shoulder and said gloatingly, "What's the matter, didn't you swear to write someone's name on your household registration paper?" ”
Lin Changsheng was not in a very good mood, his handsome face was cold, and he slapped Lin Fifteen's paws away, "At least it's better than you, a 10,000-year-old bachelor." ”
Lin Fifteen jumped up, "Hold!" Grass! How dare you talk to your father like this? ”
Lin Changsheng gave him a humming look.
Lin Fifteen had to wilt down, like a sun-dried cabbage, "Who made me your father?" I'll help you kill that kid!" ”
Lin Changsheng gave him a look of contempt, meaning to guess for himself.
Lin 15 jumped up again, "How can you look down on your father like this, why don't you squat for me!" ”
Without waiting for Lin Fifteen to finish speaking, Lin Changsheng squatted down in the corner of the courtyard with an expressionless face.
Lin Shifu shook his head, sighed, looked at it for a while, and resigned himself to dragging the dirty clothes out and going to the small river at the edge of the village.
