Chapter Thirty-Eight: Those Who Cherish Themselves
"Xiao Lili, are you stupid?" Mu Qingyun gritted his teeth with hatred, "How much can this be sold for!" Isn't this the end of the financial route? It seems that you can't just swear by it, and it has been fulfilled! ”
Mo Li glared at him: "Of course I know, but what can I do." If you don't do this, I'm sorry for the shopkeeper Zhao, and I can't afford to pay for the breach of contract. ”
Mu Qingyun wanted to say something more, but Murong Chu swept over with a slap in the eye: "Mo Li needs to eat now, you can go out." ”
"Really, if all the money is earned by your family, it will pit me alone." Mu Qingyun muttered out of the room.
Before Mo Li could figure out what his words meant, Murong Chu had already picked up the porridge bowl on the tray and sat down in front of the bed. Mo Li suddenly remembered the embarrassment of being fed medicine by him, and said, "General, let's let Mama He in." ”
Murong Chu was stunned, as if he remembered the tingling feeling on the tips of his fingers, his ears were slightly red, he stood up and called Mama He in, and slipped away quietly.
may be due to his weak body, Mo Li only ate a small half bowl of porridge and couldn't eat it. Mama Ho raised the pillow so that she could lean on comfortably.
"Mama He, you have been taking care of me these days, it's really hard for you." Mo Li smiled sweetly.
"Don't say that, Gongzi Mo, slaves are not hard. The hardest is General Murong. Since the general returned to Ding'an City, he stayed here for most of the day, and he had not rested for several nights. ”
Mo Li's heartstrings trembled, no wonder Murong Chu's dark circles were so heavy. But will he make others ambiguous? It feels strange for a general to keep watch over his guards all night.
Seeing that Mo Li was silent, Mama He took a needle and thread and sat sideways at the end of the bed to work.
"What is Mama doing?" Mo Li asked curiously.
"To my aunt...... Childe do...... Do...... Forget it, let's see it for yourself. Mama He took a strip of cloth from under the small basket where the needle and thread were kept.
Mo Li only felt that her head was as big as the original two in an instant, and she glanced in front of her just now, and was quickly stuffed into the basket by Mama He.
"Mamama...... you, you, you, do, do this...... Why? ”
"It was the general who asked me to spare time to prepare a few. Don't you remember your own days? ”
Mo Li had already turned into two big heads and roared like five thunderbolts, and it was hard to imagine what Murong Chu would have been like when he told Mama He about it.
A majestic general asked a grandmother to do things for a few months! This picture is simply too weird and creepy! But what's even more terrifying is that this thing is for her!!
Mo Li's current mood is simply indescribable, she was stunned for a long time before she stammered and asked, "Mama...... You...... You...... Know ...... me? ”
Mama He snorted and laughed: "The slave maid has served the son for so many days, I don't know this, don't you become a fool!" ”
"Then why do you still call me Childe?" Mo Li asked with a red face.
"It was ordered by General Murong, and the general said that outsiders don't know the identity of the son, and when the son himself is willing to say it, he will change it. Childe rest assured, except for the general and Mu Gongzi, only the slave maid has entered this room, and no one else knows. ”
"Mama......" Mo Li really didn't know what to say. It seems that she has been deceiving herself there with a fluke mentality before, but in fact, it was wrong since Murong Chu helped her wipe her face and hands on Chinese New Year's Eve.
Mo Li hung her head and didn't make a sound, Mama He peeked at her, the work in her hands didn't stop, and she said: "There are some things that slaves and maids don't know whether to say or not?" ”
"Mama, please have something to say." Mo Li had already said a few times that she would not let Mama He call herself a slave, but she couldn't change it, so she had to follow her.
"Then first confess to the son, the slave said the wrong, and ask the son Haihan." Mama He stopped what she was doing and whispered, "According to the slave maid, General Murong's heart for Gongzi is really rare, and Gongzi should not be disappointed." ”
"Mama......" Mo Li buried her face on the pillow, her heart was messy, "Actually...... In fact...... she couldn't tell what it was.
Mama He smiled, picked up the needle and thread again, and said while doing it: "The slave doesn't know why the son hides his identity and shows people in men's clothes, so there must be a reason for it. In any case, the fact that the general can indulge Childe like this shows that he values Childe very seriously in his heart. Isn't the biggest blessing of the girl's family in this life to have someone who can cherish herself. ”
Mo Li didn't make a sound, Mama He was right, no matter which woman in the world is, of course, she wants to meet someone who can really cherish herself. Thinking of Murong Chu, a strange feeling crossed her heart, a feeling that she had never experienced even in her previous life.
But in a different world, Mo Li knows that she is different from the women in this world. She can change her speech and demeanor to try to be like the people of this world, but she can't change her mind and soul. In her previous life, she didn't have a boyfriend because she didn't meet someone who could make her heart move, and in this life, she never had the luxury of expecting a man to abandon the world for her, even if Murong Chu is good to her now, even if she admits that she has a good impression of him, but this relationship will eventually lead to tragedy because they come from different worlds.
Mama He lowered her head and was busy with the needle and thread in her hand, and Mo Li leaned on the head of the bed, staring at one place in a daze with her eyes unfocused. She felt that her life was really tragic enough, she came here inexplicably, experienced so many unbelievable things, and almost died again, alas...... Since Murong Chu didn't reveal her identity in person, then she simply continued to pretend to be stupid, and the plan for now is to take care of her body first, and then find a way to get out of here.
Murong Chu sent a few books the next day, Mo Li was worried about how to pass the boring time, when he saw the books, he immediately smiled, and exclaimed while flipping through the books: "General, there are still novels, it's really good!" ”
"Novels?" Murong Chu thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Are you talking book?" ”
"Well, yes, the script, it's the script." Mo Li nodded, "Has the general read this kind of book?" ”
"I've seen it too, not much." Murong Chu raised his eyebrows, "It's okay to pass the time, and it doesn't have any practical use, so I probably put it down." ”
Mo Li is right to think about it, how can a person like Murong Chu, who commands an army, like a story of a talented and beautiful woman, just like a tough guy holding a romance novel and reading it with relish, what a surprising thing it is. But she liked it, and although this so-called script was not the same as the romance novels of the previous life, it was perfect to pass the time.
