On the second day, when Timulan curiously cared about Mei Sanniang's situation next door, Mei Sanniang was gone.

guessed that Mei Sanniang must have gone into hiding, so Temulan stopped paying attention.

Two days later, Zhong Wanli suddenly came to say goodbye.

"There are things that I have to deal with, I have to leave, and I don't know when I will be able to deal with them. ”

Zhong Wanli's expression was a little depressed, and his eyes kept staring at Mu Pozi.

Seeing Mu Pozi with her head down, concentrating on the needlework in her hands, Zhong Wanli sighed.

Mu Pozi has been busy preparing her daughter's dowry recently, and she has embroidered a pair of red pillows with dragon and phoenix patterns.

Timulan looked at her mother's indifferent demeanor, and could only sigh.

"Mulan, you go out first, I want to talk to your mother alone. ”

Mu Pozi's hand holding the embroidery needle finally shook it.

Timulan nodded, glanced at Mu Pozi, and turned around and walked out without hesitation.

Sitting in the courtyard basking in the sun, if she had the heart, she could hear clearly what was being talked about in the house, although she was curious in her heart, she couldn't do that.

didn't let her wait longer, but it was just the time for a cup of tea, and Zhong Wanli regretted a face and walked out. And Temulan looked behind him, but did not see the figure of Mu Pozi.

"Uncle Zhong, you ......"

Zhong Wanli raised his hand to stop Ti Mulan's words, and sighed: "Time is pressing, I may have to leave today, and I will definitely come back when I have time in the future." ”

After speaking, Zhong Wanli glanced back at the closed door, turned his head, took out a wooden sign of agarwood from his arms, and handed it to Temulan's hand.

"This is the token of the Beggar Gang, with which you can mobilize some of the Beggar Gang's forces. When I'm away, you have to protect your mother. ”

Temulan took the wooden card, felt the texture on the wooden card, and sniffed it on the tip of her nose.

"It's the South China Sea agarwood? ”

Not to mention the value of this token, just a palm-sized piece of rare wood is already hard to find. At this time, Temulan finally realized that the power in the rivers and lakes of this world should not be underestimated.

"You are really not an ordinary person, you even know this kind of agarwood that only exists in the legendary South China Sea. ”

Temulan sniffed the smell of agarwood in the South China Sea again, and had some memories in her heart. Her master has a set of boxes made of South China Sea agarwood with different sizes of charges.

Legend has it that the South China Sea agarwood is produced in the back garden of the South China Sea Bodhi Patriarch, a thousand years of germination, a thousand years of flowering, and then a thousand years to become a pillar of talent, three thousand years of South China Sea agarwood has the effect of antiseptic preservation. ”

Zhong Wanli nodded and said, "I heard that the Nanhai Bodhi Patriarch is an enlightened immortal, but he has been unwilling to ascend to heaven because he can't bear to see the people in the world suffer. Of course, these are just legends, and no one has ever seen a fairy. However, after the emperors ascended the throne, they would send people across the South China Sea to find the whereabouts of the South China Sea agarwood, even if it was only a piece of the palm, if it could be buried with the coffin after death, it could also preserve the body for thousands of years. ”

Temulan lived in the Seven Heavens in her last life, and the gods in the heavens looked at the word life and death very lightly, and paid attention to reincarnation. After feathering, I only hope to be reincarnated again, and the immortal body is rarely retained. However, there are also many great powers, and they will also build a big tomb for themselves, in order to leave what they have learned and their wealth to future destined people, which can be regarded as accumulating merit.

"I can't ask for something so precious. ”

Temulan wanted to return the South China Sea agarwood in his hand to Zhong Wanli, but Zhong Wanli refused to accept it.

"With your ability, to be the guest elder of my beggar gang, it is well deserved, I am not for your mother, but a sincere invitation. Besides, if something happens to my beggar gang, you, Elder Keqing, can't ignore it. ”

When Temulan heard this, she hesitated for a moment, and finally accepted this piece of South China Sea agarwood.

"Uncle Zhong, take care. ”

Zhong Wanli finally glanced back at the closed door and carried it away.

When the courtyard was silent, Mu Pozi gently pushed open the door and saw Temulan sitting alone in the courtyard drinking fragrant tea and basking in the sun. My heart tightened, and I looked at the gate of the courtyard, but there was no longer that strong figure.

"Mother, come and sit. ”

Temulan poured a bowl of fragrant tea for Mu Pozi, and after Mu Pozi sat down, she said, "Uncle Zhong left, and I didn't say when I would come back." ”

Listening to the faint sigh in her ears, Temulan also closed her mouth.

From this day on, Mu Pozi will always be in a daze for no reason, holding the hand of the embroidery needle, and will always prick her fingers, and she doesn't seem to be interested in anything.

In the first few days, Tie Mulan didn't care, she knew that Mu Pozi actually had Uncle Zhong in her heart, but she just didn't want to change her traditional thinking, and she would get better after a while.

At the end of June, the Lin family sent a message, saying that the two of them had already been counted, but they were signed. The seventh day of the seventh month of July is a good day, and the Lin family plans to pay for the levy on this day and give Dading a dowry gift.

This was good news, but after Mu Pozi heard the good news, she fainted immediately, but it scared Timulan a little.

After calling Mu Pozi for a long time, she remembered that she knew how to heal.

After finishing the pulse of Mu Pozi, Tie Mulan blamed herself very much, for such a long time, she didn't find that Mu Pozi's mind was so heavy.

Zhong Wanli's sudden departure, Mu Pozi didn't care at all on the surface, but in fact, it had become a dead knot in her heart. was already too sad, but suddenly it was a big joy, and naturally I couldn't stand it.

Temulan hurriedly gave Mu Pozi medicine, and Mu Pozi's face gradually recovered. But heart disease still needs heart medicine, no matter how good her medicine is, she can't untie the knot in the old lady's heart!

"What's wrong with me?"

When Mu Pozi opened her eyes, she saw that she was lying on the bed in broad daylight, and she was still a little puzzled.

"You're just so happy, overexcited on a hot day, heat stroke. ”

In fact, the weather at the end of June is not the hottest time now, how can it be heatstroke? But Mu Pozi had already recalled the news sent by the Lin family at this time, and she was so happy that she forgot everything.

"It's the mother who is useless, and I'm happy to faint. ”

Mu Pozi said and quickly got up and got out of bed, but was stopped by Temulan.

"You lie down for a while, and I'll make dinner." ”

"Oh, where is the dinner business, after the big decision, your wedding date should also be set. Lin Zhi is also a big boss, looking at the attitude of the Lin family, he must be in a hurry, your dowry is not ready yet, how can I lie down and sleep with peace of mind?"

As she spoke, she was already standing by the cupboard, rummaging through the red silk she had prepared before.

"Don't be lazy, from today onwards, you are not allowed to go there, just stay at home and give me an honest wedding dress. ”

Seeing that Mu Pozi was in a good mood at this time, Temulan didn't dare to stimulate her anymore, so she could only nod honestly, but she was worried in her heart, she was afraid that the old lady still couldn't figure it out, and she kept forcing herself like this, and sooner or later something would happen.
