Mo Li was afraid that the two would quarrel again, so he hurriedly said: "Don't talk about the two of you, the brothers settle the accounts, no matter how good the relationship is, if you cooperate in business together, the accounts must be clear." That's it. Ruoping, you go on a trip and bring all the silver. ”

"Yes, miss. I'll be back soon. Although Ruoping said it to Mo Li, his eyes were staring at Yu Mingxi fiercely, and the word "soon" was bitten very hard, obviously warning Yu Mingxi not to do anything crooked.

After Ruoping left, Yu Mingxi instructed the guy to change the hot tea, took a sip, and asked, "Moxi, is he good to you?" ”

Of course, Mo Li knew that he was asking Murong Chu, so he smiled slightly and nodded: "It's good." ”

Yu Mingxi hesitated for a moment: "Do you know his family background?" ”

"Know." Mo Li said, "He told me, but I didn't ask too much about the specifics, after all, I was in love with him, not his family." ”

Yu Mingxi pursed her lips and asked in a rare and serious way: "Moxi, do you regard me as a friend?" ”

"Of course, it's not an ordinary friend, we're good brothers." Mo Li is also sincere.

Yu Mingxi was slightly stunned, then nodded heavily and said, "Since you think so, then I have something to say to you." His family is not an ordinary eunuch family, the rules are naturally needless to say, and the water is also deep. If you make up your mind to follow him, then be careful in everything from now on. ”

"Mingxi, what you said I was like I was going to enter the Longtan Tiger's Den." Mo Li cupped his cheeks and said, "Don't worry, I'm not the kind of soft persimmon that can be pinched casually." ”

Yu Mingxi waved his hand: "Moxi, it's easy to be bullied if you are soft, but it's not good if you're too strong." Since he wants to stay by his side, he naturally wants to protect you. You don't have to force yourself out in case of trouble, let him handle it. ”

"You're asking me to be a shrunken turtle?" Mo Li said with extreme disapproval, "I don't need anyone's protection, since I choose to be with him, I have to walk side by side, not hide under his wing." ”

"Moxi, you always think differently from others." A smile appeared at the corner of Yu Mingxi's mouth, "I've never heard a woman say such things. That's right, if you're like any other woman, where will you get into that person's eyes. ”

Mo Li smiled noncommittally, picked a piece of dim sum and took a bite: "Well, this osmanthus cake tastes good, you can taste it." ”

Yu Mingxi picked up a piece and only took a small bite and threw it back into the small plate: "Since I have eaten the pea yellow you made, I don't think anything else is delicious." ”

While the two were talking, Ruoping entered the house with a small bag, put the small bag in front of Mo Li, poured a cup of tea and drank it, it seemed that he was in a hurry and thirsty.

Yu Mingxi hooked the corners of his lips playfully: "It is worthy of being trained by Murong Chu, this foot is really fast." ”

Ruoping put the cup in his hand on the table heavily, made a "bang" sound, and glared at Yu Mingxi angrily: "If you call the master's name again, believe it or not, I pulled out your tongue!" ”

"Mingxi, this is seven thousand taels, you order." Mo Li hurriedly pushed the stack of silver tickets he had just counted in front of Yu Mingxi, and stopped his finger that had already pointed at Ruoping in time.

"No need to order, I still can't trust you." Yu Mingxi stuffed the silver ticket into his arms at will, called his man to send pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and wrote a deed to Mo Li.

The two gossiped a few more words, and Mo Li had to say goodbye to Yu Mingxi and return to the inn under Ruoping's urging.

After Pingyi Town, it entered the hinterland of the Central Plains, and it was getting closer and closer to the capital, and everyone on the road kept vigilant, but they did not encounter any great danger.

After twenty-three days of departure from Xidaying, we finally arrived at Yunxiu Town, which was fifty miles away from the capital. Mo Jinhua ordered to go down, stay in Yunxiu Town tonight, and enter Beijing early tomorrow morning.

In the middle of the night, Mo Li faintly heard a voice saying, "The fate of this life, the fate of the previous life." Since it was made by yourself, no matter what the road ahead, you should not turn back. ”

"Who?!" Mo Li sat up with a spirit, and Ruoping from the outside hurriedly walked in, lit the candle, moved the candlestick to the side of the bed and asked, "Miss, what's wrong with you?" ”

Mo Li looked around at the room where there was no one else except the two of them, and lay back on the bed with a sigh of relief: "It's nothing. The voice was very similar to what she had heard when she was struck by lightning, and the words she uttered were just as unbelievable.

"Is it a dream?" Ruoping sat on the side of the kang and wiped Mo Li's sweaty forehead with a handkerchief.

"Probably." Mo Li turned over and faced Ruoping, "I'm fine, you can go to sleep too." ”

"I'll keep watch over Miss and wait until you're asleep before going out." Ruoping patted Mo Li's back with a moment.

Mo Li quickly fell asleep again under Ruoping's gentle touch, and this time she didn't dream anymore and didn't hear any strange sounds again.

The next day, the convoy set off earlier than usual, but it had already arrived at the west gate of the capital, perhaps because of the timidity of the hometown, Mo Li looked at the tall city gate outside the car, and couldn't help but feel nervous.

Mo Zhong, the housekeeper of the Mo family, took his family to guard at the gate of the city early in the morning, and when he saw the convoy coming slowly, he hurriedly sent someone back to report the news, and trotted to Mo Jinhua's car with the placket of his long robe, and fell to the ground with a puff: "Young Master, you can count it back." ”

"Mo Zhong get up and speak." Mo Jinhua raised the curtain and said, "Madame, how is it?" ”

Mo Zhong got up and lowered his hand: "Madame heard that the eldest lady is coming back, and her spirits are much better, so she came to greet the eldest young master and eldest lady early this morning." ”

"Well, let's go home then." Mo Jinhua commanded.

Mo Zhong went to Mo Li's car again to say hello and followed the convoy into the city.

The capital is indeed much more magnificent than other towns that Mo Li has visited, the streets are wide and straight, and both sides of the road are neatly repaired with shops and houses.

After traveling for more than half an hour, the convoy finally stopped in front of a house, and Mo Li got out of the car with Ruoping's hand.

Under the gate of the golden pillar, the maid and the woman surrounded the two women, an old and a young woman, who was said to be old but only in her forties, wore a long green skirt covered with a patina gown, her hair was curled back into round sideburns, and a golden jade and jade hairpin was inserted on it, and her sallow face was obviously sickly, and she coughed twice from time to time covering her mouth with a handkerchief.

The woman holding her was only in her early twenties, wearing a scarlet pipa cardigan top, a smoky cloud floral skirt underneath, a beaded jade hanging hairpin obliquely inserted on her swallowtail sideburns, and a pair of beaded emerald earrings flashed with her every move, quite smart.

Under the steps in front of the two of them, there was also a young man wearing a frost-colored robe, about thirteen or fourteen years old, his slightly immature face was seven points similar to Mo Jinhua, and the young man was holding a little boy of three or four years old in his hand, looking forward with a pair of big eyes.
