Chapter 21: Strange Forces
"Where have you been!"
Mu Jiu appeared, and Mrs. Mu's scolding slammed into her face.
Mu Jiu didn't intend to hide it, "I went to Uncle Lizheng's house." ”
"Are you in trouble outside?"
Mu Jiu was stunned, and when Aunt Lin came to the door, Mrs. Mu was also present.
She also thinks that with the extent that Mu Rongguang and Mrs. Mu love face, they will follow to support her.
As a result, she went to Lin Langzhong's house by herself, and Mu Rongguang and Mrs. Mu were gone.
Don't they love face anymore?
No, they have a high face and don't care about those mud legs who haven't read.
If she wins, they will still have face.
If she is punished by Lizheng, they will not hesitate to put all the blame on her.
It is she Mu Jiu who has no face, and they are still knowledgeable and knowledgeable readers!
Mu Jiu shook his head, didn't he know that there was both prosperity and loss?
No wonder the original owner was bullied outside but never came back to say a word.
These two old men are not only eccentric, but also selfish to the core!
"What did grandma say about this?"
"Why did you smash Lin Mansheng's head?"
At this time, Li Xiaotao came out of the kitchen, "Mother, I believe Jiu'er, she will definitely not smash Lin Mansheng's head." ”
"Get in there and get to work!" Mrs. Mu scolded, "You go on the front foot, Lin Liu's (Lin Lao Wu's wife) came to quarrel with me on the back foot, today was a good day, and she was unlucky!" ”
Mu Jiu, "......"
There is a hole in the brain!
The original owner must have done bad things to destroy the whole world in his previous life before he was reincarnated into such a family!
Her eyes darkened a little, and she looked at Mrs. Mu faintly, and her tone was slightly cold, "Grandma also thinks I smashed Lin Mansheng?" ”
"Didn't you, Lin Liu, dare to come to the door?"
Mu Jiu pursed the corners of his lips, to put it bluntly, he didn't trust.
However, he had already been mentally prepared, and Mu Jiu did not feel sad, on the contrary, he strengthened his determination to leave the Mu family as soon as possible.
"That'...... Does grandma know how Grandpa Lizheng broke off? ”
"What!" Mrs. Mu was shocked, her throat was broken, and she jumped up, "You really went to Lizheng's house?" ”
Mu Jiu nodded.
"You say it again?"
Mu Jiu walked in front of Mrs. Mu and said solemnly, "We went to Grandpa Lizheng's house, and Grandpa Lizheng made a judgment, believing that I didn't smash Lin Mansheng." ”
Mrs. Mu raised her hand fiercely, thought of the gods, and gently put it down.
She couldn't breathe out of her hand, and her mouth fired, "You unbeatable!" I'm, I'm! ”
Mu Jiu looked at Mrs. Mu quietly, looking at the various vivid expressions on her face, and was silent.
"You're short-lived, you're doing short-lived things!"
The breeze was slow, and a breeze blew, lifting Mu Jiu's sparse bangs, and revealing a pair of quiet and cold eyes.
Mu Jiu looked at Mrs. Mu as if it was a joke.
Li Xiaotao ran out again and cautiously explained for Mu Jiu, "Mother, you can't say that about Jiu'er, she is innocent, she is so kind, she will not smash Lin Mansheng for no reason!" ”
However, Li Xiaotao's humility was exchanged for Mrs. Mu's yelling, "Go back to the kitchen, and don't eat in your second room today!" ”
"Mother! You must believe in Jiu'er! ”
Mu Jiu just shook his head and sighed.
Li Xiaotao is too weak.
"Grandma insisted that I had done something to ruin my reputation, but is there any evidence? Even Grandpa Lizheng believes that Jiu'er is innocent, and he still protects Jiu'er, is it possible that Grandpa Lizheng and Jiu'er are closer than you and Grandpa and Jiu'er? ”
Li Xiaotao was afraid that Mrs. Mu would beat Mu Jiu, so she was so frightened that she winked at Mu Jiu and signaled her not to talk nonsense.
Mu Jiu gave Li Xiaotao a reassuring look.
"Jiu'er didn't talk nonsense, grandma and grandpa probably felt that Grandpa Lizheng was on Jiu'er's side because they were scholars, and Grandpa Lizheng gave them face, so they were not embarrassed by Jiu'er, but Jiu'er used their face to sell!
However, Grandpa Lizheng's fairness is obvious to all, if grandma insists that it is to give them face, isn't that accusing Grandpa Lizheng of being unfair? ”
"You ......"
Mrs. Mu was exposed, staring at her wrinkled eyes, annoyed and angry, but she couldn't organize effective words to continue to accuse Mu Jiu.
"Hehe......"
Mu Jiu no longer paid attention to Mrs. Mu, but walked past Mrs. Mu to the backyard.
She remembered that there were good things in the lotus leaf bag, and she didn't know if Mrs. Mu had entered her room during her absence.
Leaving Mrs. Mu staring dryly, she was very angry, but she couldn't find the words to scold Mu Jiu!
……
When he returned to the room and saw that the lotus leaf bag was still there, Mu Jiu breathed a sigh of relief.
In his previous life, he was full of gold and food, and he was full of spirit, and even rewarded his subordinates, using white silver!
I didn't expect that one day, I would be reduced to the end of being happy for half a day when I earned a copper plate!
After waiting for a while, Mu Hongli, who followed Mu Qiaoyong to weed in the field, finished work and went home.
Mu Hongli neatly placed the tools in a corner of the firewood room and went to Mu Jiu's room with a bang.
"Sister." Mu Hongli mysteriously took out something from his arms and handed it to Mu Jiu, his eyes were shining, "Hurry up and eat." ”
It was a tiny bird's egg, and the shell burst to reveal burnt egg whites.
It is estimated that it is wrapped in a layer of lotus leaves, then wrapped in a layer of mud and put in the fire to cook, and it also exudes a little heat and a faint smell of lotus leaves.
"Sister, eat quickly, you were found by grandma, and you are going to be scolded again!"
"Hmm." Mu Jiu took the bird's egg, peeled off the eggshell, and ate it in one bite.
For the first time since rebirth, meat was opened.
The aroma of bird eggs, like a ray of warm sun, penetrates into the depths of the heart.
No matter how unbearable the Mu family is, even if Mrs. Mu and Mu Rongguang are filthy and unkind, Li Xiaotao and Mu Hongli's care is enough to light up the sky above her head.
Mu Jiu took out the lotus leaf bag and spread it out.
Wanbao Town is a small town, there are no good things, someone sells meat buns, so she bought three, one for herself, one for Mu Hongli, and one for Li Xiaotao.
As for Mu Qiaoyong?
Forget it, you must not let him know, otherwise with his foolishness and filial piety, the family will definitely know about it.
"Sister!" Mu Hongli was startled, and he reacted quickly and couldn't scream, covered his mouth, approached Mu Jiu's ear, and said in a low voice, "Sister, where are you from?" ”
"Don't steal, don't rob, eat with confidence."
Although Mu Hongli could be trusted, she didn't want to tell anyone but Lin Changsheng about selling medicinal herbs for the time being.
"But my sister ......," Mu Hongli was very careful.
"Don't worry, my sister will exchange things for others for land."
"I believe in my sister, my sister is a good sister." Mu Hongli took one and broke it open, and gave half to Mu Jiu, "Sister, you can eat too, and we will keep one for my mother." ”
Mu Jiu pushed back, "You eat, my sister has already eaten, and I will secretly give it to my mother later." ”
Mu Hongli insisted on pushing half a bun to Mu Jiu, "I can go to the hall and finish eating, sister, you eat." ”
The sister and brother pushed back and forth, almost pushing the bun to the ground.
In the end, it was Mu Jiu who raised his face and used his sister's "majesty" to coerce Mu Hongli to eat all the buns.
It would be good if the family was separated, with a small family of his own, not exploited by Mu Rongguang, and he could buy whatever he wanted to eat and make money in the future.
Mu Jiu looked forward to it, it was almost there.
……
After the evening, it was still Mu Jiu and Li Xiaotao who washed the dishes and worked, and the others went to the tree in the yard to enjoy the coolness.
After finishing the work, Mu Jiu pulled Li Xiaotao to the backyard and entered her room.
Fortunately, Li Xiaotao has no opinion, and whatever Mu Jiu says is what it is.
Seeing the bun that Mu Jiu touched out from under the bed, Li Xiaotao almost screamed out, trembling with nervousness, "Jiu'er...... You ......"
"Mother, Jiu'er didn't do anything bad, I went to chop wood every day, and I met good things and exchanged them with people."
"You went hunting? No! Jiu'er, that's what the man does, don't you go, it's okay to meet a rabbit, in case you meet a wolf, you ...... No way! Can't go back in the future...... It's too dangerous......"
Mu Jiu, "......"
She just said a word, and Li Xiaotao made up so much in her brain.
But the strong care poured out inadvertently, Mu Jiu's heart warmed, and explained, "Mother, don't worry, Jiu'er didn't go hunting, Jiu'er knew that she didn't have the ability, so she didn't take risks." ”
Mu Jiu glanced at the door, pretended to be mysterious, and leaned into Li Xiaotao's ear and said, "Mother, I met someone that day, he was probably looking for medicinal materials, let me help him find some medicinal materials, I found him while chopping wood, and exchanged some things." ”
Li Xiaotao fell back into her stomach with a worry, "I'm scared to death!" My nine! You can't afford to have any more accidents. ”
"No, no! But mother, I don't think grandma and grandpa want Jiu'er to have a better time...... Hmmm......"
Mu Jiu pushed Li Xiaotao's hand away, "Mother! Why don't you let me say it! ”
Li Xiaotao was worried, "Jiu'er, my mother knows that you have grievances in your heart, but your grandfather often says a word, repay grievances with virtue......"
Mu Jiu, "......"
Report him uncle!
Dare to love Mu Rongguang and Mrs. Mu to brainwash Li Xiaotao like this!
Then why don't they repay their grievances with virtue themselves!
"Mother, you look at Jiu'er, you answer me, do you think grandpa and grandma will really think about Jiu'er? If they would have considered Jiu'er, they would not have pushed Jiu'er out when Mu Liufu was arrested. ”
Mu Jiu said as he carefully captured Li Xiaotao's facial expression.
Li Xiaotao faltered.
Mu Jiu added another fire, "Mother, at the beginning, I also thought that we were a family, and everything my grandparents did was for our good. ”
Mu Jiu sniffed, trying to make his voice sound aggrieved, "But do you know? When Jiu'er was about to die, a voice told Jiu'er that I had done something wrong and thought wrong, and the Mu family would not really treat me well and think about me. ”
Mu Jiu decided that no matter what happened, he would guide him in the direction of the gods.
Li Xiaotao is very superstitious, and she will definitely be able to persuade her with the words of the gods.
In fact, she died and was reborn here, so why not blame the power for being confused?
Otherwise, how can we explain it?
Li Xiaotao was shocked, "You said there was a voice, is it a Bodhisattva?" ”
Most people in the Great Xia Dynasty believed in Buddhism, and Li Xiaotao was no exception.
This is also the reason why Mu Jiu did not say the Jade Emperor or other gods at the beginning, but said the Bodhisattva.
