Chapter Eighty-Five: The Turmoil of Life
When he returned home, Mingyue went straight to the backyard, and Li Yun was still sitting quietly under the tree in the yard, looking at the book in his hand.
The hot weather and the several layers of skirts on her body made Mingyue sweat lightly, walked to the stone bench under the shade of the tree in three or two steps and sat down, took the teapot on the table and poured a cup of tea for herself, and poured it into her mouth. ”
Li Yun lightly, "Huh? "Yes, it's an answer.
Mingyue continued, "And he also sent his own subordinates to follow me, which made me startled, and the subordinates said that Xu Yuanwai asked him to bring me a message, if there is any difficulty, just talk to him, this is a naked show of goodwill, but it is obviously not to you and not to me." ”
Li Yun said lightly, "That house and field are the things of the Ming family, and since they are returned to the Ming family, they will be collected, and there is no need to take care of the rest." ”
Mingyue pursed her mouth, "You really thought I would run to him?" Come on, I don't have anything to ask for outside of Xu. After saying that, Mingyue got up and went to the house to change clothes.
The weather is hot, and there is no one else at home in the past two days, Mingyue often wears a set of suits that she asked her godmother to help make, it is also convenient to do things and practice, her hair is tied up high on the top of her head, and she wears this unique suit, but it has a unique flavor, and it is full of heroism, Mingyue likes it very much, but it is much more convenient than the skirt, so she also deliberately asked her godmother to help her make a few more sets of changes.
Even resting at night, because of the hot weather, Mingyue did not squeeze with Li Yun on the bed in the house anymore, but rested on the soft collapse in the room next to her.
After changing her clothes, Mingyue moved a chair and sat down under the tree next to Li Yun, closed her eyes cross-legged, and began to meditate for lunch.
Li Yun glanced up, didn't bother, and continued to read.
Because he had to take care of Li Yun at home, Mingyue's treatment plan was temporarily put on hold, in addition to taking care of Li Yun and his own diet and daily life at home, in addition to practicing at home, he was reading books, those medical skills that he didn't read much, Mingyue moved them out again, of course, Mingyue wanted to read a book, Li Yun would not be idle, and he, the tutor, would have to guide him at any time.
In the evening, Mingyue was cooking dinner in the kitchen, and someone knocked on the door outside the courtyard, and when she opened the door, she saw that it was Zhao Dazhu standing at the door with a bucket of water, Mingyue quickly got out of the way, and led Zhao Dazhu to the location of the water tank in the kitchen, and said with thanks, "It's really troublesome cousin Dazhu." ”
Zhao Dazhu smiled innocently, "Cousin, you're welcome, I'll fill a tank for you, and it should be able to manage it for two days." After saying that, he poured the water from the wooden bucket into the water tank, and went out with two empty buckets.
After Zhao Dazhu left, Mingyue hurriedly found a knife of bacon and came out, and began to cook, preparing to cook something delicious for a while to entertain Dazhu's cousin who helped him carry water.
Zhao Dazhu didn't eat at Mingyue's house after all, he filled the water tank, greeted and left, and said to Mingyue when he left, "By the way, my mother told me that if you want to go to the river to wash clothes, you can come to our house earlier, and my mother will take you with you." ”
Mingyue nodded gratefully, and sent Zhao Dazhu outside the courtyard gate until he returned to the house to continue cooking.
The two of them lived quietly in this courtyard, more than ten days passed in a blink of an eye, according to the time calculation, the store in the town has been open for a few days, it is estimated that the old lady Li in the town will also come back, Mingyue is afraid that she will make too much mess at home during this time and be seen by the old lady Li, and she also deliberately cleaned up the house, looking clean and refreshing to be satisfied, just waiting for the old lady to come back.
It's just that Mingyue doesn't know that what she is waiting for is not the joy of a happy family reunion, but a big storm.
Mingyue's estimate was quite accurate, she had just cleaned up her home diligently, and the next day everyone in the Li family came back, Mingyue, who was reading in the backyard, heard the movement outside the front yard, and quickly got up and walked out, and said to Li Yun on the side, "It must be that the milk is back, I'll go out and have a look." ”
When I arrived in the front yard and saw the three people at the gate of the courtyard, Mingyue greeted her and said happily, "It's back." ”
Shopkeeper Li and Li Lan stood in the courtyard with Mrs. Li alone, but Mingyue found that there was something wrong with the faces of these three people, especially the old lady, whose face was pale and depressed, as if she had experienced some great disaster.
When Mingyue saw it, she took it for granted that the old lady was sick, and hurriedly stepped forward, "Why is grandma's face so bad, is she sick?" Can you please take a look? ”
But the three of them actually ignored Mingyue, and Mrs. Li trembled and said to her son on the side, "Help me go to the backyard." ”
Mingyue watched the three of them pass by her with some astonishment, and went to the backyard, it took a long time to recover from her stunned, and she hurriedly followed, but her heart turned over the river and the sea, what is the trouble? What's going on?
Li Yun was sitting in the shade of a tree in the backyard reading a book, and when he saw the pale and angry three people in front of him, he was also a little stunned, and he didn't understand what was going on, so he only said the reason out loud to the old lady Li.
I saw that Mrs. Li trembled in her voice, gritted her teeth and spoke, "The boss of my family, for the sake of your mother and son, I fell into a stubborn illness, and went early, let my old woman send a white-haired person to a black-haired person, and that's it, but your mother-in-law and son, actually disappeared without a trace like this, and when you become a wasted person, I only thought about coming back to this Li family, thinking that you are the only descendant of my boss, and forget it, my Li family has good food and drink for you, I never thought, I never thought, my Li family is a wild seed." ”
Speaking of the back, Mrs. Li's trembling fingers pointed at Li Yun in front of her, she was already a little unable to stand, and the words behind her were all crying, and she broke down and cried out after speaking, with a taste of despair in that cry.
At this time, Li Yun was no longer as calm as usual, the book in his hand had fallen to the ground, his face turned pale, and his eyes became red.
Mingyue, who followed up behind, opened her mouth even more in astonishment, what the hell is going on.
Seeing that Mrs. Li was crying out of breath, Li Lan shed tears and gently supported her grandmother's back, trying to find a comforting word, but she didn't know what to say.
Old Mrs. Li tried her best to stop her crying, looked at Li Yun who was sitting in front of her, and continued with an accusatory voice, "What kind of sin did my Li family create, when I met your mother and son, ah, what kind of sin did I create!" ”
Mingyue looked at the scene in front of her and wanted to go up to adjust, but she didn't know what to do, so she could only stand dumbfounded.
Li Yun just looked at the three members of the Li family in front of him with red eyes, just like that, didn't say anything, and no one knew what he was thinking.
"You get out of here, get out, get out of the Li family, get out of the Li family, get out of the house, get out of the house, get out of me, I don't want to see you again, get out of me quickly!" Mrs. Li finally lost control completely, ignoring the obstruction of her son and granddaughter, she pounced on Li Yun, pulled Li Yun's white robe, and pushed and shoved indiscriminately.
Seeing the out-of-control scene, Mingyue was no longer in a daze, and hurriedly stepped forward to help pull Mrs. Li away, and finally pulled Mrs. Li away from Li Yun's voice.
Li Yun, who was finally freed, suddenly struggled to slide off the wheelchair, knelt in front of Mrs. Li, lowered his head and spoke, "Li Yun can't choose to be born, but Li Yun is a member of the Li family, and there is only one father named Li Gao, and Li Yun will always be the Li family." The voice was no longer as cold and magnetic as before, but low and hoarse.
Old Mrs. Li didn't look at Li Yun who was crawling on the ground, and turned to the side and said, "My Li family doesn't have such wild seeds, Li Qiang, drive this wild seed out for me." There was a kind of powerlessness in that voice.
Li Lan helped Mrs. Li to leave the backyard like this, Li Yun was still kneeling on the ground, holding the ground with her hands, Mingyue looked at Li Yun, her hands had been exposed, and her arms were a little trembling, Mingyue knew very well that Li Yun's legs didn't need strength at all, and being able to kneel on the ground like this was completely the strength of her arms, and she was distressed and helped Li Yun up.
Li Yun didn't resist, Mingyue still helped him get up, and sat back in the wheelchair, the white and clean robe that was usually washed, was full of mud, and it looked very embarrassing.
Li Qiang looked at Li Yun, who was distracted in front of him, and said in pain, "Let's go, Mingyue, help him clean up and leave quickly." With that, he turned around and left the backyard.
The courtyard was quiet, quiet as if nothing had happened just now, Li Yun had been sitting in a wheelchair like this, not moving, not talking, just sitting quietly.
Until Mingyue couldn't stand it anymore, she said, "What are we going to do?" Mingyue didn't open her mouth to ask what was going on, she knew that now was not the time to ask this.
Li Yuncai finally rolled his eyes, opened his mouth for the first time, did not make a sound, coughed, and then continued to speak, "Go and pack your luggage." After saying that, he pushed his wheelchair into the house.
Mingyue had to follow into the house, while seeing Li Yun pushing a wheelchair and starting to tidy up the things on the desk, Mingyue sighed, also went to the wardrobe, and began to sort out the clothes of the two.
In fact, when I packed up, there weren't many things, so I had one burden for each person, and when Mingyue packed up, I saw the bookshelf and a desk of books that Li Yun was sorting out, and said, "What about these books?" ”
Li Yun pointed to the books on the desk, "These, help me give up the secret compartment next door, just keep these." ”
Mingyue nodded, went over and picked up the pile of books and bamboo slips that Li Yun had sorted out on the desk, and went to the next door.
