Chapter 37: Foodies
"Of course not!"
He was obviously a little annoyed, and Li Muyuan also knew that she had asked the wrong question, but she got the answer, and she was relieved.
She stepped forward again and comforted her rather against her will: "I don't mean anything else, it's just that you have such a good personality, and you naturally have many friends in the palace." ”
She comforted him as she stood on tiptoe and patted him on the shoulder.
There is nothing wrong with the two little fathers-in-law's actions. And Li Muyuan has been joking with her brother since she was a child, so she is very skilled in doing this action.
Tian Mu only felt that his shoulder was gently patted, and his eyes changed slightly, only to see Li Muyuan's toes slightly raised, looking at him with a smile.
His heart trembled slightly, and although his face was turned away, the smile on the corner of his mouth was uncontrollably hooked.
"Okay, this time it's mine, I'll make a compensatory to Father-in-law Tian~" Li Muyuan apologized while gagging, and bowed to him seriously.
"I'm not really angry either." Tian Mu muttered, and the pace of holding the food box was faster.
Li Muyuan had to trot to catch up with him, and she trotted all the way helplessly, but fortunately, the dining room was not far away.
When the two of them returned the food box, Tian Mu was very cordial and talked to the eldest and youngest sisters in the dining room.
Li Muyuan watched from a short distance, and only felt that this picture was faintly familiar.
Her eyes narrowed slightly, and she looked at Tian Mu with some suspicion.
At this time, an eldest lady came over kindly and said, "Little father-in-law, I heard that Father-in-law Tian said that you just went to feed those rare birds, and we have clean water here, so you can come with me to wash your hands, and then take two rice cakes to eat." ”
Li Muyuan saw that the eldest lady was so enthusiastic, and it was not easy to refuse, so after thanking her, she followed her to wash her hands.
At this time, Tian Mu was still talking to the group of big ladies, and Li Muyuan was holding the rice cake, eating it, and sitting next to him waiting for him to go back.
The short garlic nose, the thick but messy eyebrows, and the eyes are also ordinary hanging eyes; The contours of the face are not clear, and the face is also a little sallow.
Some people with such ordinary faces can still be so popular among a group of people, Li Muyuan is a little impressed by Tian Mu.
If a eunuch like this wins the eyes of any nobleman, his future is absolutely unlimited.
When Li Muyuan picked up the second rice cake, Tian Mu came out of the crowd with a smile. Seeing Li Muyuan picking up the rice cake and eating it, his face changed, and he asked her, "Have you washed your hands?" ”
"Naturally, it's washed, No, it's the one who washes your hands, if you want to eat, go wash it yourself." Li Muyuan ate the rice cake and said to him vaguely.
Seeing her eating like this, Tian Mu just glanced at her slightly, and obediently went to wash his hands.
When he had washed his hands, he took a few more pieces of food, but wrapped them in oiled paper and carried them in his hands.
Li Muyuan was a little puzzled by his behavior, he packed the food and came over and said, "Let's go, it's just been a short time since we eat, and I can't digest the rice cakes if I eat too much, so you eat less." ”
Hearing him speak like this, Li Muyuan was a little unhappy in her heart. Is this still disgusted with her appetite?
After Tian Mu and Li Muyuan left the dining room, he took the bag of food and asked Li Muyuan, "Father-in-law Li is willing to go out of the house with me for a while?" ”
Out of the house? Why?
Li Muyuan had some doubts in her heart, but seeing that Tian Mu was looking at her sincerely and earnestly, she couldn't refuse, so she nodded.
Tian Mu took Li Muyuan out of the house from the small door. There were also a lot of people outside Shangshu Mansion, and I saw that the two of them went around and walked to a small remote alley.
Li Muyuan looked at this alley and only felt a little familiar. At this time, Tian Mu said loudly: "This is the alley we passed by when we first came to Shangshu Mansion. ”
Li Muyuan nodded, and watched suspiciously as he opened one of the packets of food. Tian Mu squatted down and whispered something.
"Are there any kittens or puppies here?"
Li Muyuan listened to the content of his low call, which was a small tune of calling cats and dogs, and she was interested, so she also squatted down.
I saw that on the other side of the alley, a little fat dog with short legs and short legs ran over. It seemed to be very familiar with Tian Mu, and kept wagging its tail at him.
But when Li Muyuan wanted to touch it, although it didn't dodge, it trembled with fear, and Li Muyuan retracted her hand when she saw this, and she didn't dare to touch it again.
Tian Mu couldn't help laughing when he looked at her like this, and when Li Muyuan looked at him again, he handed the food in his hand to the puppy and watched it eat intently.
Li Muyuan looked at him with very gentle eyes, watching the puppy gobble up, but the slender curly eyelashes were motionless.
It's really strange that on such an ordinary face, only the eyelashes are very good-looking.
"This puppy was when we first came over and heard the barking of puppies in the alley. I came out to take a look, and when I first arrived, the puppy was just over a month old, and was just able to eat, but its mother had accidentally ingested rat poison and died next to it. ”
Li Muyuan couldn't help but look at this very vigorous puppy, this dog was yellow all over, the little nose was like a small black bean, and the fat body looked obviously not hungry.
Li Muyuan took a little bit of the pastry in Tian Mu's hand and gently handed it to the puppy, and when the puppy saw that there was something to eat, he ran to Li Muyuan to eat it.
"This puppy is not safe in this alley, I think its mother has been poisoned, and this puppy has no precautions against eating."
"yes."
Tian Mu gently touched the puppy's head.
He turned his head again, looked pondering for a while, and then said to Li Muyuan: "I lost my mother when I was very young, and my father also married a stepmother. ”
Li Muyuan looked at him suspiciously, not knowing why he suddenly revealed this.
"My stepmother was very good-looking, and she was very much loved by my father, and I just remember that she was very fond of cats, but those always stayed for a short time, and after a while they disappeared again."
"Later, I dug up treasures with my friends in my family yard, but what I dug up was the bones of dozens of small animals that I don't know what they were..."
He spoke calmly, watching the little yellow dog eat hard. Li Muyuan was slightly shocked in her heart, but she didn't know what to say.
At this time, Tian Mu smiled at the puppy, and said softly: "Fortunately, I entered the palace later, and I was far away from the family, and I rarely heard about the deeds of the stepmother in the family." ”
Hearing him say so easily, Li Muyuan thought for a while before saying, "Don't take your stepmother's affairs too seriously, besides, you were young at that time, so do you remember vaguely?" ”
"Rich."
Li Muyuan heard his sudden call, and was stunned for a moment before she realized that Tian Mu was calling her.
"Huh?"
She looked at him suspiciously, and saw that he smiled very happily and said, "You are right, maybe I am mistaken." ”
