Chapter 60: Better Than Me
After getting along for a short time, Mingyue has gradually lost the nervousness and apprehension she had at the beginning, perhaps because Mingyue felt that Li Yun was not Li Hao.
After eating a few in the mountains, Mingyue didn't dare to continue to eat more, so she carefully wrapped it and put it away, and then said hello to Li Yun, who was reading, and went out to the front yard for a stroll.
When Mrs. Li saw Mingyue coming out, she beckoned, "Girl Yue, come here, have you eaten the red in the mountains?" β
Mingyue passed, sat down on the stool next to Mrs. Li, and responded with a smile, "It's sweet." β
Old Mrs. Li smiled, her eyes narrowed into a slit, "I like to buy it for you next time." β
Mingyue was pulled by Mrs. Li to sit in the yard, and asked Mingyue to talk to her, Mingyue didn't know what to talk about, so she told Mrs. Li some myths and stories she knew, Li Lan also came over, listening to Mingyue was very interesting, and she also moved a bench to sit next to her, listening to it with relish.
In the end, even Wu Wei came over, listened to the side, and was reluctant to leave, but Wu asked him to take care of Li Yun, so he reluctantly went to the backyard.
It wasn't until the sky gradually darkened, Shopkeeper Li had already come back from outside, Wu shouted that dinner was ready, Mingyue finally took a breath, and consciously said that he was going back to the backyard to accompany the prime minister to have a meal, and ran away.
Old Mrs. Li was a little unsatisfied, and shouted at Mingyue's back, "Girl Yue, I'll talk about it tomorrow." β
When Mingyue returned to the room, Wu Wei had already prepared the food on the table, and this time Wu Wei had already prepared the dishes and chopsticks for two people.
Li Yun had already sat at the dining table, but he didn't touch the food, and waited until Mingyue went over to wash his hands next to the washer, came over and sat down on the edge of the dining table, and then said, "Let's eat." After that, he picked up the dishes and chopsticks in front of him and began to eat.
Mingyue picked up the bowl, while picking up the rice in the bowl, tilted her head and peeked at Li Yun, chewing slowly, eating elegantly, so Sven, and let Mingyue find a point that is not like Li Hao, Li Hao used to eat not so Sven, as a habit developed by special forces, eating is simple and fast, and a few bites are picked into the stomach, where will it be like Li Yun, even he has been following the army all the year round, and he has gobbled up his meal.
Mingyue sighed lightly in her heart, even if it wasn't Li Hao, she was already married to him, this was her choice, and at least she didn't think he hated it, so let's make do with it.
Mingyue's red fruit eyes, Li Yun didn't intend to pay attention to it, but Mingyue didn't seem to plan to look away, so Li Yun was a little uncomfortable eating, raised his head impatiently to look at Mingyue, and asked, "I'm good-looking?" β
Even Li Yun himself couldn't believe it, how could he ask such a question, and he couldn't wait to swallow his tongue after asking it.
Mingyue nodded as a matter of course, and then replied with a smile, "It's beautiful, better than me." There was a hint of ridicule in his tone.
Li Yun had a feeling of lifting a stone to hit his feet, a suspicious flush appeared on his ears, his eyes that were originally looking at Mingyue moved away, looked at his rice bowl, tried to maintain his composure in tone, and said lightly, "Hurry up and eat." β
The smile on Mingyue's face became more and more proud, and she had a feeling that she had teased Li Yun in her heart, and she kept staring at Li Yun with bad taste, which made Li Yun really a little unbearable, so she quickly ate a few bites of rice, put down the dishes and chopsticks, and shouted outside, "Wu Wei." This Wu Wei shouted with confidence, and the voice traveled far away, enough for Wu Wei to hear.
Mingyue felt that she seemed to be a little too much, and felt that Li Yun seemed to be a little angry, so she quickly put away the smile on her face and asked, "What's wrong?" Just call me something. β
Li Yun looked at Mingyue and said lightly, "I want to leave the palace." β
"That's still called Wu Wei." After Mingyue finished speaking, she lowered her head with a red face and began to struggle with the food on the table.
Looking at Mingyue's embarrassment when she lowered her head, feeling that she had finally broken back, Li Yun thought triumphantly in his heart, even Li Yun himself didn't notice a smug smile on his face.
Wu Wei listened to Li Yun's shout, and thought that something was wrong, Gongzi had never called himself so loudly, and ran in in a hurry, with a mouthful of rice that he didn't have time to swallow, and said vaguely, "Childe, what's wrong?" β
Seeing Wu Wei like this, Li Yun felt a little annoyed in his heart, how could he become so naΓ―ve, and he didn't finish Wu Wei's meal, but Wu Wei had already come, and he couldn't get off the stage now, so he had to grieve Wu Wei and said, "Help me go to the thatched house." β
Mingyue was also made by Li Yun to lose her appetite, and glared at Li Yun who was going out on crutches with dissatisfaction, put down the dishes and chopsticks, and began to clean up the table.
"Sister-in-law, why are you alone? What about my brother? Li Lan suddenly came out of the door, and saw that Mingyue was the only one cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks at the table, so she came over to help and asked.
Seeing Li Lan ask about Li Yun, Mingyue secretly pursed her mouth and said, "Wu Wei helped him to the thatched house." β
Li Lan let out an "oh" and continued, "My father asked me to tell you, remember to go back early tomorrow morning, but my brother definitely can't go back with you, my father said let me go back with you." β
Mingyue tilted her head and thought about it, as if she had said that she had returned to the door, so she said to Li Lan, "It's okay, I'll just go back by myself." β
Li Lan picked up the tray and said as she walked out, "It's okay, anyway, I'm okay at home now, if you really go back alone, I'm afraid someone will gossip." With that, he left with the tray.
Mingyue chased out and wanted to go over to help, but was stopped by Li Lan, "Sister-in-law, go take care of my brother, I'll just take it to the kitchen." β
At this time, I happened to meet Wu Wei helping Li Yun back, Mingyue followed to help, and helped Li Yun, who was on crutches, into the room and sat down at the desk.
Wu Wei said hello, carried the wooden bucket next to the washer, went to get hot water, Mingyue was fine, just finished eating, went to the backyard, walked around the backyard to eat, and then punched again, unfortunately there was no chance to bring a bow and crossbow, and he still wanted to practice archery.
After the punch, Wu Wei, who was stunned on the sidelines, couldn't wait to ask, "Sister Yue, what are you dancing for?" β
The corners of Mingyue's eyes twitched, her military fist became a dance in Wu Wei's eyes, and Mingyue didn't bother to explain to him, so she replied, "Move after eating, and eliminate food." β
Mingyue didn't realize that she was wearing a skirt, and the movements restrained by the skirt were indeed not much different from dancing.
Wu Wei smiled and said, "Sister Yue's consumption is really special, I have finished serving my son's washing, Sister Yue should also hurry up and wash, there is hot water next to the washstand." After speaking, Wu Wei ran away.
When Mingyue returned to the house, she saw Li Yun sitting on the bed, using the oil lamp on the desk next to the bed, looking at the bamboo slip that Mingyue had read before.
Sure enough, there was a bucket of steaming hot water next to the washstand, so Mingyue gently lifted the hot water, picked up the oil lamp on the dining table, and went out lightly.
The room next door was empty, and the layout seemed to be a study, Mingyue carried hot water to the next door, and then brought a cotton wooden basin over, plugged in the door, and planned to wipe his body.
People here don't have the habit of taking a bath every day, but Mingyue can't stand it, not to mention that the weather is getting hotter and hotter now. On the mountain, there is also a lake, and the bright moon will slip under the waterfall from time to time to wash, and here, you can only wipe it first.
Mingyue went back to the room, saw that Li Yun was still looking at the bamboo slips, plugged in the door, blew the oil lamp in his hand, and Mingyue went to the bedside.
Anyway, I've already slept all night, and I don't feel shy anymore, Mingyue wore a middle coat, stepped directly over Li Yun, and went to the bed to lie down next to the wall.
The person next to him didn't even want to sleep in the same bed with him, so he didn't have to worry about what would happen to him, without the nervousness of last night, Mingyue closed her eyes with peace of mind.
Just thinking that Mingyue was going back to the door, Mingyue was worried that there would be any customs that she didn't know, if this made grandma catch the handle, it would be endless, thinking about Mingyue frowned.
Opening her eyes, tilting her head to look at Li Yun, who was sitting at the head of the bed looking at the bamboo slips, Mingyue opened her mouth and asked, "That, what is the custom of returning to the door?" β
Li Yun turned his head, glanced at the bright moon inside, and then quickly turned his gaze, looked at the bamboo slip in his hand, and said, "Back to the door, also known as Guining, on the third day of marriage, the newlywed woman takes her husband back to her parents' house, and she needs to prepare a return ceremony in advance. β
Mingyue pursed her lips and sighed lightly, "Forget it, you can't go with me anyway, you don't have to worry so much." β
And I didn't know that there was a return gift before, and I didn't prepare, just go back and take a look, even if my grandmother is dissatisfied, she can still eat herself, thinking about it like this, Mingyue feels that there is nothing to worry about.
Li Yun's faint voice came, "Uncle will prepare a return gift for you." "But I really can't go back to her.
Mingyue had already turned to the side, facing the wall, let out a soft "um", and closed her eyes.
At night here, it gets dark at night, in order to save lamp oil, there is no entertainment, I go to bed early, and Mingyue has been here for a long time, and I am gradually used to it.
However, Mingyue didn't forget to remind herself again before going to bed that she must take advantage of Li Yun's sleep in the middle of the night to secretly see what the problem with his leg is.
It didn't take long for Mingyue to close her eyes, and she entered the dream.
Li Yun on the side, as early as after Mingyue went to bed, the words on the bamboo slips were not read, only Mingyue on the inside of the bed breathed steadily, and curled up against the wall in a regular manner, and there were no other indecent movements, Li Yun put down his heart, gently put the bamboo slips in his hand on the desk, blew the oil lamp, and slowly lay down.
