Wang Zhizhi, who learned about this incident, went to Mu Jingchi's study that afternoon, and Wang Zhizhi could be heard crying inside through several doors, and as for what he said while crying, he couldn't hear it very clearly.

Chun'er ran back from outside the corridor to tell me about it, I was sitting on the bed learning to sew clothes, I hadn't touched it for many years, embroidering patterns, it was very uncomfortable, so I didn't have much interest in Chun'er's words, but continued to bury my head there and fight against needlework and said, "Isn't this day coming a long time ago?" He has an attitude now, obviously he doesn't plan to hand over everything of the Mu family to Feng'er, how can Wang Zhizhi be willing, but, yes, Feng'er is still so young, if you really wait for him to take over the Mu family, I don't know how many years later, can he afford to wait? ”

I said the latter sentence in passing, but when I wanted to take it back, I couldn't take it back, so I looked up at Chun'er not far away, and sure enough, she looked at me with a particularly strange look.

I immediately smiled and explained: "What I mean when I say I can't afford to wait is that the doctor is letting him recuperate now, and he must be managing the Mu family for a few years, so he won't take care of it anymore, probably because he wants Xiao Yu'er to help him share some of the burden." ”

Chun'er didn't accept my explanation, but asked again, "Are you...... Don't you worry about your husband's body? ”

She didn't make it clear, but I knew what she meant, and I smiled and said, "Be careful, of course I'm worried, but is it useful for me to worry?" ”

I asked about this, and continued to embroider flowers on my clothes.

Chun'er stood there and looked at me for a long time, and she said, "Yes, what kind of person is Sir, how can something happen to Sir." She was a little angry and said, "How can I listen to your tone, as if I am looking forward to the death of my husband." ”

Hearing her words, I immediately stopped what I was doing, looked up and glared at her, Chun'er was a little frightened by my stare and took a few steps back, and said very unwillingly: "Originally, I see that this is what your expression means, and you can't hide it." ”

After she finished speaking, she seemed to be afraid that I would beat her, but she didn't dare to stop, and as soon as the words fell, she found an excuse to turn around and run.

I sat there staring at her for a long time, then ignored her and continued to embroider.

In those days, I was in a good mood, sewing clothes happily there every day, and preparing summer pajamas for Xiao Yu'er, my craftsmanship was not very good, and the clothes were still under the guidance of Chun'er, barely a look.

After embroidering for about four or five days, one morning Chun'er suddenly ran happily into the house, squatted in front of me and suddenly asked me a question, she asked me: "Miss, do you know what day it is?" ”

I was busy with the work at hand, so I asked her very perfunctorily: "What day?" ”

After saying that, she continued to sew there, and Chun'er saw that I was not interested in guessing at all, so she hurriedly grabbed my hand and said, "You stop first and listen to me." ”

I could only look at her again.

Chun'er said: "Today is the summer lantern festival. ”

Chun'er took advantage of the victory and asked, "Aren't you very interested in such activities?" There will be a lot of lotus lanterns and boats on the river at night, do you want to have fun? ”

I was silent for two seconds and said, "No need, I'm still playing like I was when I was a kid." ”

When I saw that Chun'er was a little disappointed when she heard my answer, she said, "If you want to go, find a maid who has a good time with you, and I will grant you leave." ”

But Chun'er still couldn't be happy, she said: "I want Ning to go with Mr., since you came back from Japan, except for a few words with Mr. every day, the two basically don't communicate much, Mr. used to take you to such a lively place, sometimes Mr. doesn't have time, you haven't tried to let Mr. take you there, why are you not interested at all now?" ”

I thought it was a little funny about Chun'er's words, so I asked her with a smile: "Are you still a child?" Moreover, he hadn't been out for a long time, and he didn't have the energy to go to that kind of place if he wanted to, and Dr. Han wouldn't allow him to go. ”

When Chun'er heard me say this, her face became more and more disappointed, and she could only sigh and say, "Okay." ”

She didn't pester me anymore, she probably went to find a maid who knew her well.

After she left, I continued to embroider there, but after embroidering for a while, I stopped what I was doing, sat there for a while, and then continued to do it.

Until the afternoon, I was a little tired of embroidering, and the light in the room was a little dim, so I changed places, went to the sofa in the hall downstairs and continued to work on the needlework of Xiao Yu'er's pajamas, but who knows, just downstairs, it is rare to see Mu Jingchi cooking tea and flipping books there.

I don't remember, I haven't seen him like this for a long time, today he is no longer the pajamas when he was sick, but a simple plain gown, his face looks a little ruddy, and his spirit seems to be better than a few days ago, I stood there and stared at him for a while, and saw that he didn't seem to notice my existence, and was about to hold the things in his hand, and secretly went back upstairs, but before he walked a few steps, Mu Jingchi, who was flipping through the book, said: "I heard that you have been sewing clothes for Xiao Yu'er for the past few days, and the maid said that it looks decent." , it's very good, come here, show it to me. ”

I didn't expect him to find me, so I stopped, thought about it, and then turned around and looked at him, and he was holding out his hand to me, so I walked over to him and handed him my pajamas.

He took it from my hand, put it under his hand and looked at it a few times, he said with a smile: "It seems that the embroidery lady of tea coriander has not been invited in vain, and she has not forgotten it for so many years." ”

Then he handed me the half-finished pajamas and said, "When will you make one for me?" ”

I just took it from him, at this time, Chun'er came out of the kitchen with some fruits, she smiled and said to Mu Jingchi: "Miss's dress is still barely a look with the help of the slave maid, naturally this is for the little master, it doesn't matter, but if you want to sew for Mr., you, it's better to wait, and it's not too late to let Miss sew it for you when the lady's skills are mature." ”

Mu Jingchi sat there and laughed lowly, he didn't speak again, and he didn't insist that I sew, because when he saw that I didn't speak, he didn't want to, and after that, he continued to flip through the book there.

After Chun'er put down the fruit plate, I said to Mu Jingchi, who was sitting there: "If you don't dislike it, it's okay for me to sew it for you, anyway, I'm not a stingy person." I thought about it for a moment, and then said, "You set a time for me to give it to you." ”

Mu Jingchi's hand paused for a few seconds to open the book, and he said, "How about next year?" He pondered for a while, and then said, "I understand that June wants to use it." ”

Chun'er didn't understand very well, she smiled and asked, "Is it a good day next June?" ”

Mu Jingchi didn't answer, but casually asked Chun'er: "Is there a lantern festival in the city today?" ”

Chun'er was still thinking about how to mention this matter in her heart, but she didn't expect Mu Jingchi to take the initiative to mention it, she hurriedly smiled and said, "Do you remember, it's just tonight, starting at seven o'clock!" ”

After Chun'er finished speaking, she asked again, "Are you going?" Would you like to take a look? ”

Regarding Chun'er's words, Mu Jingchi looked at me and asked, "Didn't you like to go the most before, but today I happen to be fine, how about going out for a walk with you?" ”

I wanted to refuse, but Sister-in-law Gui also came out at this time, and immediately promised for me: "Miss is naturally willing to go, when has Miss missed such an event?" ”

Mu Jingchi listened and laughed twice, but he asked me again what I thought: "What about you, do you want to go?" ”

Chun'er and Sister-in-law Gui all looked at me, but I didn't answer immediately, but was silent for a few seconds and said, "It just so happens that Xiao Yu'er hasn't been there, so it's better to take him to take a look." ”

Sister-in-law Gui and Chun'er were all relieved, and the two of them rushed upstairs to invite Xiao Yu'er, and then Mu Jingchi was reading the book there, and I was embroidering Xiao Yu'er's clothes there.

When we arrived at seven o'clock in the evening, it was the beginning of the lantern festival, and Xiao Yu'er, who had promised to go, said that he couldn't go, he said that there was still homework to be done, let us go. I don't know what tricks they are playing, but I didn't say much, and finally under the push of Sister-in-law Gui and Chun'er, I followed Mu Jingchi into the car.

After the car drove out from Mu's house, it went down the mountain directly, and after going down the mountain, it entered the city unimpeded, and sure enough, just entered the city gate, and saw that there were lights everywhere outside, Jinling City was extremely lively, many people carried lanterns at night, and groups of friends around them were swimming on the street at night.

Our car was parked on a lively street, the street was full of hawkers' shouts, I followed Mu Jingchi to get out of the car, the bodyguards behind wanted to follow, but Mu Jingchi glanced at them, the person in his eyes, and subconsciously took a step or two back, although Mu Jingchi did not say anything, but the bodyguards also understood what he meant, and did not dare to follow again.

I can only accompany Mu Jingchi.

I don't know why, it's clear that there are people coming and going everywhere, crowded, and noisy everywhere, but at this time, I feel very quiet inexplicably, and I can't say why.

When I followed Mu Jingchi for a while, he stopped at some point, stopped in front of a lantern vendor, looked at me slightly and asked, "Do you want to buy a lantern?" ”

Hearing him ask, I looked up at him, and found that his whole person was surrounded by the light of the lantern, a little hazy, and even a little unreal, this unreality, as if I went back to a lot of old days, he was also wearing such a color of clothes, standing under the light, looking at me with a light smile, and asked me what type of lantern I would choose.

However, at that time, he was not as quiet as he is now, but like a little sparrow, he held it in his hand, jumping, chirping and pointing to the colors, shouting for this, for that, at that time he was always helpless, and did not buy me everything, but always picked out the most beautiful lamp for me, and then slowly squatted in front of me, handed me the lantern and said, "Don't fall." ”

I don't know why, I fell into the memories of the past, and I don't know how long I stood there staring at him in a daze, until the vendor on the side couldn't wait to ask: "Girl, what about this master?" ”

After I came to my senses, Mu Jingchi said to the vendor: "It's okay, I'll come." ”

So he lifted up his hand and picked one from the lantern rack, and picked the brightest one, and then gave the peddler a great ocean, and then handed the lantern to me, and said, "Don't fall it." ”
