Chapter 107: Forcibly Occupying a House?
"No, it's okay, it's hot."
Zhao Shuran stammered, like a child who had done something wrong, and her expression was cringe when she spoke.
For familiar and friendly people.
Li Mubai has always disliked too much suspicion.
He just stood in the street outside the door and looked up at the sky.
Overhead is the blue sky and white clouds.
A huge dark yellow ball, hanging in the center, is releasing a blazing dazzling light, unscrupulously pouring hot heat.
Street vendors are sweating.
While constantly fanning the wind with a pu fan, trying to get a hint of coolness, degrading the high temperature from the top of the head; On the other side, he held an old cloth with a slight black stain, and kept wiping the sweat stains from his forehead.
Even the vegetables on the ground in front of the vendor were crumpled and severely dehydrated.
The chirping of cicadas in midsummer comes from afar, which makes people feel bored and anxious.
As Li Mubai, who is titled Douluo, his physical fitness has long been far beyond ordinary people, so he naturally has no feeling for the heat of midsummer.
But Zhao Shuran is different.
She is an ordinary person and is greatly affected by the weather.
So.
When she said that the crimson on her face was heated, Li Mubai subconsciously believed it.
However.
The truth of the facts, Li Mubai will never guess.
......
Three hours ago.
Li Mubai was invited to leave home.
After this.
There are only two people left in the family, it is the beautiful woman Zhao Shuran, and the blonde Xiaoqian, who has blue eyes and big waves.
At that time, Zhao Shuran was in the living room, after Li Mubai left, she was about to leave, the white tofu made at home was still there, if it was not sold today, according to this weather, it should be rancid.
But just as she was leaving.
A voice suddenly came from the door of the bedroom, and she was about to step out of the door.
It was Xiao Qian, who had just gotten up from the bed and walked to the door of the bedroom.
Originally, she didn't want to care about the matter between Zhao Shuran and Li Mubai.
But after a short ideological struggle in bed, she still chose to have a good talk with Zhao Shuran.
If it's a different woman.
She really wouldn't have chosen to talk to her in detail.
But Zhao Shuran is different.
First, these are acquaintances, and everyone knows each other's temperaments.
Second, after getting along these days, she also recognized Zhao Shuran's character.
Gentle and virtuous, she can go to the kitchen, go down to the hall, can bear hardships and stand hard work, can work, the key is that her body appearance is also superior, especially in some special positions, even she can't help but be ashamed.
Just ask,
Such an outstanding woman, what man in the world doesn't like it?
And so.
Xiao Qian changed her tricks and inquired about Zhao Shuran's thoughts.
finally came to a conclusion, that is, Zhao Shuran does not hate Li Mubai, and likes it very much.
Come to think of it.
The first time she saw Li Mubai, she also thought that this man was quite handsome.
That's it.
After the two talked privately for a few hours, Xiaoqian said that she had no objection to Zhao Shuran joining the big family.
This suddenly made Zhao Shuran blush.
Especially when Xiao Qian said what happened in the kitchen before, Zhao Shuran was even more ashamed, she wanted to explain, but she was so chattered by Xiao Qian that she couldn't speak.
Let alone.
She also had a good impression of Li Mubai in her heart, so she didn't explain this misunderstanding clearly.
In fact.
Zhao Shuran still has one more thing that has not been dragged out.
The little girl she is currently carrying is her daughter, Xiao Yu'er.
In fact, it is not her biological child.
She picked it up.
When she first picked up the child, she was hesitant to raise it.
At that time, it was very difficult for her to even support herself.
Originally, she pretended not to see it and let this infant child live and die.
But she is not a heartless person after all.
Thereupon.
I can't bear it.
She raised this little girl from a swaddling child waiting to be fed to a lovely four-year-old girl today.
Later, she took Xiao Yuer to Wuhun City, and with her savings for many years, she rented a house in Wuhun City, and relied on the craft of making tofu to earn a living.
Because when she sells tofu, she often takes Xiao Yu'er with her.
And Xiao Yu'er has always called 'Mom, Mom', so that others mistakenly think she is a widow.
In fact.
She is still a yellow flower girl, and she has never been in love with a man.
...
Looking at the man in front of him.
Thinking about what Xiao Qian said to her, Zhao Shuran couldn't help but feel a little shy.
Because Xiaoqian's words to her were too explicit.
"Sister, hasn't Xiaoqian gotten up yet?"
Li Mubai raised his feet and stepped into the living room, looking at the empty dining table, he couldn't help but ask Zhao Shuran suspiciously.
"She, she's already up, and we're still laughing together."
Zhao Shuran said and walked into the kitchen.
A moment later, she walked out with a cup of steam.
"It's hot, take a sip of tea."
As she spoke, she handed the teacup to Li Mubai.
"Sister, what are you doing here? I'm so embarrassed to go home and pour tea for you, the guest. ”
Li Mubai reached out to pick up the teacup.
When the teacup was just held in his hand, he suddenly felt an itch in his palm, like a goose feather gently brushing in the palm of his hand. The fleshy feeling is not as light as goose feathers.
Li Mubai was shocked.
Because this feeling is exactly the feeling of Zhao Shuran's fingers scratching in his palm.
Time.
He was stunned and quickly looked over.
Merely.
The latter had already glanced to the side at the moment, making it impossible to see her expression at the moment.
Sister Zhao, is this intentional or unintentional?
Li Mubai secretly guessed the car in his heart, but he didn't break the screen window and ask the end, but silently picked up the water cup and drank a cup of tea.
The rich aroma of tea surrounds the tip of the tongue and fills the entire mouth.
Li Mubai pretended to be casual and came to the coffee table, put the tea he had taken a sip on the table, and then called:
"Xiaoqian."
"Yes, master."
The delicate sound came from the kitchen.
Soon.
At the door of the kitchen, a figure wearing an apron appeared, it was Xiao Qian, her long hair like a waterfall, which was coiled on her head at the moment, and she was holding a kitchen knife in her hand.
"What did you get it for? Haven't eaten yet? ”
Li Mubai wondered.
"No, master, you didn't say you wouldn't eat at home today, so I'm just waiting for you to come home."
Xiao Qian's big fox eyes winked at Li Mubai, looking cute and playful.
It seems like this... Li Mubai suddenly recalled that when he left this morning, he didn't tell Xiaoqian not to wait for him, but left directly.
Originally, he was thinking.
Even if Bibi Dong calls him, it won't take long for him to come back.
I didn't expect to go this time, it was just a morning.
It's so exhausting, and in the end he's thankless.
Li Mubai suddenly regretted a little, why didn't he think of asking Bibi Dong to give some task rewards or something?
"Then you cook, I'll accompany Sister Zhao to chat."
Li Mubai nodded and sat back on the sofa.
"Okay."
Xiao Qian replied, and then turned around.
Merely.
When he turned around, he threw a mysterious look at Zhao Shuran.
Seeing this look, Zhao Shuran's flush, which had already faded, came out again.
She couldn't understand what Xiao Qian meant.
Xiao Qian is calling her to seize the opportunity.
Just now, when she handed over the water cup, she deliberately scratched it with her fingertips in Li Mubai's palm, which was Xiaoqian's instructions.
According to Xiao Qian's words.
The owner likes the most, the woman who is dignified in front of the person and XX in the back of the person.
(Brothers, what is XX.) I don't need to say more, do I? )
"Sister, you sit."
Li Mubai greeted Zhao Shuran, picked up the melon seeds on the table casually, and swallowed them.
He didn't eat in the morning, and when he came back at noon, he didn't eat either, so he went home directly, and now he is really hungry.
"By the way, what about Xiao Yu'er?"
While knocking melon seeds, Li Mubai looked at Zhao Shuran sitting on the sofa and asked.
"She's still at home, practicing calligraphy."
Zhao Shuran smiled indifferently.
It's just that when she looked at Li Mubai, her eyes revealed deep gratitude.
She has to soak beans every day, then grind soy milk, and finally make white tofu, and she doesn't have much time to teach Xiao Yu'er to read and write.
Let alone.
Her own level of education is also extremely limited, and she has not reached the level of teaching and educating people.
If it weren't for Li Mubai, there would be Xiaoqian.
Xiao Yu'er is only afraid that she still can't read a few big characters, which is not what she wants to see.
In this world above the aristocratic soul master, it is extremely difficult for ordinary people to have the opportunity to read and write.
Because even the academy of the empire is linked to the martial soul.
If the child does not have the talent to become a soul master, he is destined to miss out on the academy.
Of course.
Except for the children of wealthy families.
Because these academies do not necessarily have to accept children with soul master talents, as long as they give money, even ordinary people can enter.
Merely.
This cost of entering the academy is far from being affordable for ordinary people.
Zhao Shuran once thought about sending Xiao Yu'er to the academy to go to school.
However, when she heard the price quoted by the other party, she gave up, because she really couldn't come up with that much money.
So.
For Li Mubai and Xiaoqian to teach Xiao Yuer for free, she has always been grateful.
That's right.
The door, which had just been closed, was knocked again.
Knock knock...
A short, squeezed knock sounded at the door.
"I'll do it."
Zhao Shuran got up first and walked to the door in a few steps.
With a squeak.
The door opened.
"Yu'er, why did you come here?"
Seeing the short figure standing in front of the door, Zhao Shuran asked suspiciously.
"Mother, no, a group of bad guys have come to rob the house."
The moment she saw Zhao Shuran, Xiao Yuer's tense face could no longer be suppressed, and she immediately burst into tears, and her bean-sized eyes flowed out of the corners of her eyes, gathered at her chin, and finally fell to the ground.
"What's going on?"
Crying is heard.
Li Mubai also got up, walked over from the living room, and stood beside Zhao Shuran.
"Yu'er, don't cry yet."
Zhao Shuran squatted down, grabbed the cuffs with her hands, wiped the tears that rolled out of Xiao Yuer's face, and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Do it all.
Zhao Shuran opened her mind, held Xiao Yu'er in her arms, and patted her back with her hand.
It seems that he has been comforted by his mother.
The fear in Xiao Yuer's eyes gradually disappeared, and finally stopped crying under Zhao Shuran's pleasure.
"Yu'er, now you can tell me, what happened?"
Li Mubai asked with a solemn expression.
Xiao Yuer is lively and cute, respects teachers, is very obedient on weekdays, and he likes this little girl very much.
Moreover.
The other party is also half of his disciple.
He was already ready to wait for Xiao Yu'er to reach the age of six, then take her to the martial soul awakening, and then teach her to practice in person.
Other words.
He had long planned to take Xiao Yu'er as a disciple.
Now seeing this half of the apprentices being bullied, a raging fire rose in his heart for a while.
"Brother Mubai, there are bad people who rob our house. They also threw all my belongings and my mother's belongings on the street. ”
Under Xiao Yu'er's telling.
Li Mubai finally understood what had happened.
"Let's go, let's go over and see who ate the bear's heart and leopard gall, and dared to act so recklessly in Wuhun City, without taking the law in his eyes!"
Li Mubai's face sank, and he immediately said.
Then, he explained to Xiao Qian again, and then took Zhao Shuran's mother and daughter and walked towards the next street.
Since the last Wolf Gang incident.
All the gangs in Wuhun City have become honest and dare not blatantly oppress the people anymore.
What's going on today?
Not long after the last incident, a strongman came to commit the crime?
Li Mubai is not a nosy person.
But this happened to Zhao Shuran, and he had to take care of it.
Zhao Shuran was very good to him and Xiaoqian.
Every time he sells tofu, he leaves a piece and gives it to him for free.
Moreover.
Every time I make tofu, I keep the tofu skin separately and deliver it to my door.
Over time.
The relationship between the two is no longer as simple as that of strangers.
Soon.
Li Mubai led the two to the end of the street, and then turned around and came to Jingxi Street.
The house rented by Zhao Shuran is located in the interrupted part of Jingxi Street.
Due to the ravages of the Wild Wolf Gang in the past, the prices of the houses on the entire Jingxi Street, whether they are bought and sold or rented, are very cheap.
But that's it.
There are also few people who buy a house or rent a house on Jingxi Street.
It's just that the wild wolf gang that stepped on this street is too prestigious, and the crimes they have created are too infiltrating.
Li Mubai had been to Zhao Shuran's house, so he remembered his location.
He took the lead.
Soon they came to the door of the house.
At this moment, on the street in front of the door, there are already many clothes, silk handkerchiefs, and even women's private belongings, scattered all over the place.
Obviously.
These were deliberately thrown.
See this scene.
Xiao Yu'er puffed out her cheeks angrily, and her eyes were full of hatred.
Looking at some clothes and personal belongings on the ground, Zhao Shuran was also full of anger.
Merely.
She was not carried away by the anger at the moment, but squatted on the ground and cleaned up the clothes and other items scattered on the ground.
Li Mubai also frowned slightly, with a look of displeasure on his face.
Now.
There are already many neighbors gathered around, stopping to watch the play.
"Sister Zhao's family is so pitiful, why is there such an unscrupulous landlord?"
"yes. Before the deadline for this rent has expired, the landlord has turned his face and denied people, and he really has no conscience at all. ”
"Well, who told the merchants who bought the house to pay too high a price? If it's me, I'll sell it. ”
"It's all the fault of money!"
