Chapter 148: A sad past

"Lin Xiao's martial arts are much higher than mine."

"Huh? Lin Xiao, he knows martial arts? Li Yue looked at Li Yun in surprise, and asked again uncertainly, she had always thought that Lin Xiao was a scholar who was powerless.

Seeing Li Yun's affirmative nod, he said, "A person who has no distractions, no matter what he does, will be very focused, Lin Xiao once lived alone in the valley, basically isolated from the world, I think, in addition to taking care of the donkey that accompanies him, the rest of the time is probably focused on studying poison and studying martial arts." ”

Li Yue agrees with this very much, if Lin Xiao's martial arts are really higher than Li Yun, then she doesn't have to worry about her mother and younger brother staying at home, but Li Yue doesn't seem to have thought about how high Li Yun's martial arts are, because she has never seen Li Yun use martial arts, and subconsciously feels that Li Yun's martial arts are very powerful.

When the two of them went back to the house, they could hear the laughter of several children from a distance, and the two walked over quickly, and saw Minghui and Mingkang all in the yard, following Xiaoyang to feed the rabbits they caught this morning.

Originally, Li Yue caught the rabbits for them, and soon after moving down the mountain, they were ordered to be killed and cooked by the milk one after another, although the children were distressed and sad, but they did not dare to argue with the milk, and now they can raise rabbits again, of course the children are happy.

Mingyue looked at Minghui Mingkang in the courtyard and asked, "Just the two of you who came up?" Does the family know? ”

Mingkang stood up and replied, "Sister, brother-in-law, it was my mother who asked us to go up the mountain, and my mother said that the family division was too chaotic, so let's come to my sister's place to play first." ”

Minghui is older and more sensible, and probably knows the situation at home, so he said, "The fourth uncle is gone, and my grandmother keeps making trouble at home." ”

Li Yue opened her mouth in surprise, "Fourth Uncle is gone?" Are you sure you didn't have something to do? ”

Minghui shook his head, "The fourth uncle disappeared in the morning, and when I went to his house, I didn't even see my clothes and books." ”

"Did your dad go looking for them?"

Minghui shook his head, "The eldest brother said that the fourth uncle left overnight yesterday, and now he can't catch up, and he doesn't know where he goes, even if he chases, there is no direction to chase." ”

Hearing Mingyue Minghui's words, Li Yue was sure that the eldest brother knew about this, so she asked, "What about the eldest brother, what are you doing?" ”

Minghui responded, "The eldest brother and his father went to the new house early in the morning, and the master said that the new house should be cleaned up earlier, so that they can move in and live there, so as not to ...... so as not to obstruct the eyes of the third uncle. ”

Li Yue frowned, thinking about the meaning of the master's words in her heart, and suddenly remembered that before she (they) left the Ming family, it was the third uncle who was the first to speak, saying that she wanted to split the family, I am afraid that it was because of this matter that the master was proud.

Li Yue beckoned, "You guys continue to feed the rabbits." He pulled Li Yun out of here.

When the children were far away, Li Yuecai anxiously grabbed Li Yun's arm and said incoherently, "The fourth uncle must have gone to Yanmen Pass to join the army, he told me before, but as a result, I was retained under the pretext that the family needed him, this time I am afraid that I am iron-hearted, what should I do, I left last night, and I will definitely not be able to catch up today." ”

Li Yun grabbed Yue'er's hands, pinched them in his hands, and comforted him, "Fourth Uncle will be fine, just because Fourth Uncle is born with divine power, even if he goes to the battlefield, he will be fine, maybe he will break out and make a name for himself." ”

Li Yue was a little worried, she used to be a soldier, but she died early at a young age, fortunately she was inexplicably reborn in this Mingyue, so that she could have a chance to live again, and now that the fourth uncle is on the battlefield, how can she not worry.

Li Yue herself didn't realize that at this time, her thoughts had gradually begun to change, and she still remembered that when she was first reborn here, she felt that life was boring, and life was also a burden, but now she began to cherish this hard-won rebirth.

Seeing that Li Yue was still worried, Li Yun sighed in his heart and continued, "Yue'er, now that the Ming family is like this, the fourth uncle is afraid that he has already broken his heart, and it is good to leave, at least the fourth uncle will feel better." ”

Li Yue thought about it carefully, what Li Yun said was indeed good, he left Mingyue with his mother and younger brother, and felt that it was a relief, but for the fourth uncle, I am afraid that it is the most sad.

The fourth uncle was so good to her (them), but he suddenly broke off the relationship, how could he not be sad? I was afraid that my mother was beaten and injured, and the fourth uncle also took the blame on himself, thinking that he didn't help him take care of his mother.

Maybe leaving is indeed the best for the fourth uncle, but as soon as Li Yue remembered that the fourth uncle was going to the battlefield, she was worried for no reason, at this time, Li Yue didn't know that she would fight on the battlefield like the fourth uncle in the future.

Li Yue looked at Li Yun and said expectantly, "Is there anyone you know in Yanmen Pass?" Can you tell them and take care of my fourth uncle. ”

Li Yun lowered his head and thought for a while before he spoke, "When I go to the county, look for Zhou Huaijin, he should be more familiar with Yanmen Pass." ”

Li Yue nodded and responded, "Okay." ”

This is Xu Jinniang in the house who came out and asked, "What are you two standing there for?" It's not that I have to go to the county seat today, it's not too early, so hurry up and pack up and go out. ”

Li Yue didn't mention the matter of the fourth uncle, and stepped forward and said, "Let's talk about Lin Xiao, who is still accompanying his donkey on the other side of the lake." ”

Regarding Lin Xiao and his donkey, Xu Jinniang didn't know what to say, so she changed the topic, "I see that you bought a lot of new cotton cloth in the house, but you want to make cotton clothes?" ”

Li Yue nodded and smiled, "I've forgotten about this busy." ”

Xu Jinniang looked at her daughter like this, and said with a doting smile, "Busy with your go, stay at home, I'll do it for you." ”

Li Yue didn't want to make a cotton skirt according to the style here, it was not convenient at all, how uncomfortable it was to wear, there was still wind on the legs below, and men's clothes too, they all loved to make long shirts, this summer was okay, the wind on the legs below, cool, and it was not cold to death in winter, it was a waste of cotton.

So Li Yue said, "I thought of a few new styles, dressed beautifully and easy to work, my mother followed me into the house, and I drew it for my mother." ”

Xu Jinniang followed behind Li Yue, and said in her mouth, "What kind of cotton clothes do you wear for work, change into burlap clothes." ”

Li Yue said, "It's impossible to wash your clothes and cook a meal and change into linen clothes, how tired you are." "The women here may have long been accustomed to wearing long skirts for laundry and cooking, but they are always disgusted and panicked.

Hearing Mingyue say this, Xu Jinniang thinks that it is also true, laundry and cooking will not change clothes, because I was too poor before, I didn't have a decent dress anyway, and it was the same whether I changed it or not.

Knowing that her Yue'er had a lot of ideas, Xu Jinniang didn't speak anymore, followed behind Yue'er, waited for Yue'er to find a pen and paper, and drew the style of two clothes, the women's style is a simple short top with a slant placket and straight trousers, and the men's style is simpler, with a mid-length top and straight pants.

Xu Jinniang looked at the style on the paper in her hand and said, "Wouldn't this be too simple?" ”

Mingyue said, "It's just simple and generous to look good, if your mother thinks it's too simple, it's good to make the buckle bigger and more delicate." ”

Xu Jinniang nodded, "This should be quite comfortable to wear, this women's top is too short, right?" ”

Mingyue pouted and said, "Don't be too long, it's too long to look short." ”

Xu Jinniang said with a smile, "Don't worry, you will grow taller again, then I will do what you do." ”

Li Yue pursed her mouth, this is all Kwai Shui, according to the theoretical knowledge he mastered before, basically he will not grow much taller, and now this height is estimated to be only one meter six, but he was one meter six in his previous life.

Li Yue thought in her heart, maybe she could ask Lin Xiao to see if there were any home remedies to promote growing taller.

The more he thought about it, the farther he went, Li Yun tried to pull back his thoughts, and said, "There is a lot of cotton cloth, it should be enough for one of us, and my mother remembers to help Lin Xiao make one set." ”

Xu Jinniang opened her mouth and said, "I'll forget about Yang'er, there is no shortage of clothes, and I will make one more set for Li Yun." ”

Li Yue looked at Xu Jinniang dissatisfied, "Mother, if you don't do it for yourself and your brother, I don't need my mother to do it, I'll take it to the county and take the time to do it myself." ”

"But......" Xu Jinniang hesitated a little and didn't know how to speak, her daughter is already married after all, what if her son-in-law is unhappy?

At this time, Li Yun suddenly entered the door and said, "Mother, Xiaoyang is not an adult yet, you and Xiaoyang will follow us in the future, and then go out to set up your own door when Xiaoyang grows up, we will be a family in the future, and my mother will not talk about the two families in the future, and the affairs of the family will be troubled by my mother in the future." ”

Xu Jinniang was moved to tears, such a son-in-law, her daughter really picked up a treasure, she is blessed in the end, with such a child, what is she not satisfied with.

Li Yue saw her mother's moved expression, and before her mother's tears fell, she quickly changed the topic, "Do you want us to measure the waist circumference or something?" ”

Xu Jinniang shook her head and said, "No, my mother will know how big you should be by looking at your figure." ”

Li Yue stuck out her tongue, "It's so powerful, I forgot to measure the size for Li Yun last time, and it turned out to be small." ”

Xu Jinniang listened to Yue'er's words, and glanced at Li Yun with some guilt, "It's all my negligence, I didn't teach Yue'er needlework well before." ”

Li Yue interrupted and said, "Why hasn't Lin Xiao come back yet, say hello to him, we should also go to the county seat." ”

Li Yun fell into deep thought, didn't he learn needlework well, where did Yue'er learn the kung fu of flying needles and threads?

It was indeed not early, the two of them simply packed up and prepared to go out, but they found that Lin Xiao had not come back yet, and they didn't know when Lin Xiao would be able to return, so they planned to go to Lin Xiao and go down the mountain after saying hello to him.

Seeing a few children playing outside, Li Yue went over and instructed, "Hui'er Kang'er, you should be careful when you go up and down the mountain, be careful when you encounter big wild things that run out of the mountain, and remember to take Xiaobai with you when you go out, you know?" ”

Mingkang proudly rolled up his sleeve and raised it in front of Mingyue, "The eldest brother gave it to us." ”

Li Yue looked at the crossbow they hid in their sleeves, she had forgotten that she had made several bows and crossbows, and after she got married, she only took one.

Li Yue said with some anxiety, "Pay attention to safety, don't pull the brake usually, lest the arrow be shot out by mistake and hurt people, you know, in addition, you usually have to practice well, the head is not good, and it is useless to hold a bow and crossbow." ”

Seeing that the two children nodded seriously, Li Yue waved her hand and let them continue to play, and went out with Li Yun to find Lin Xiao.

When the two of them arrived at the place where the donkey was buried near the small lake, they saw Lin Xiao still standing there, looking at the small dirt bag, motionless, such a slightly depressed back, which seemed to hide endless sadness.

When Li Yun and Li Yue passed, they didn't seem to know how to speak, and in the end, Li Yun only said lightly, "Mourn." ”

The two stood behind Lin Xiao, unable to see Lin Xiao's face, and after a while, Lin Xiao, who listened, spoke, "My father said that this donkey was picked up by my mother on the road, and it was just a little donkey cub at that time. ”
