Chapter Eight: Complaining
Because it was Li Siwen brought the person, Lao Tietou was very polite to Li Mu. After making an appointment for work tomorrow, Li Mu said goodbye and went home. Not far from home, he arrived in a few steps. Before the mother and mother had finished packing their things at home, Li Mu asked Bai Qiaoqiao to light a candle. The three of them worked hard for an hour before they rewalled the things at the door into the house.
After closing the door, Bai Qiaoqiao set fire in the yard, boiled porridge with pots, and drank it from the family. It has been a month and a half since Li Jing's army captured Dingxiang City, and the house has been empty for a month and a half. It is dust everywhere, and it needs some sorting to live normally. Dingxiang City was just occupied by the Tang Dynasty and used as a base camp. Military control was implemented. In addition to soldiers, there are no merchants selling goods. Li Mu also thought of this, so when he came from Mayi County, he bought a lot of food, enough for three people to eat for a month.
In this era, if you have grain, you will not panic. Bai Qiaoqiao is another capable person. In less than two days, he will be able to keep the house in order. But today, he can only clean up simply. It was late at night. Li Mu served Sun to sleep in the inner room and asked Bai Qiaoqiao to take good care of it. He returned to the shop in front alone. He found a wooden board as a bed and rested here tonight.
The night was quiet, and the sound of ironwork was getting smaller, but there was still. I don’t know if it was so late, but whose weapons needed to be repaired. When the candle was blown out, Li Mu summoned the system. He would go to the military weapon supervisor to work tomorrow, and Li Mu would learn the skills first.
When he left Mayi County, he sold his house for two cents, but he spent 300 cents to buy rice and 50 cents to pay for the car fee. With the money he used to hold, he now has about 2,700 cents to spend about two cents, which is two or seven cents of silver. He naturally had to leave some money for emergencies, so Li Mu could use no more than two cents of money at present.
Although the money is not much, it still needs to be spent. Li Mu first learned the primary forging technique, and one tael of silver is gone. After thinking about it, Li Mu learned two branch skills under the primary forging technique, smelting and weapon repair, which happened to be used tomorrow. Two taels of silver are not left, and they are all spent. Look at the purchaseable patterns, such as sickles, hoes, etc., at least one cent, Li Mu simply didn't learn any of them. Although he knew very well that smelting and weapons repairing had been slower and slower, and he had to upgrade quickly to quickly upgrade, but what if he had no money, he couldn't directly make money, unless he could find gold and silver ore and directly smelting gold and silver for money.
Li Mu turned off the system and was about to go to bed when he suddenly heard footsteps approaching. Li Mu sat up and happened to see Bai Qiaoqiao coming over with a quilt. Li Mu was shocked. In his previous life, he heard that the Tang Dynasty was open, but he didn't expect it to be true. The girl actually came over with the quilt. What was she going to do?
"Mr...."
As soon as this title came out, it was awkward silence. In front of Li Siwen, Li Mu said that Bai Qiaoqiao was his wife in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, so the two of them called each other as their wife and the husband throughout the day. Of course, Sun was happy to see it, looking at it happily, hoping that this was true. But Li Mu knew in his heart that this was a stopgap solution, and he didn't know what Bai Qiaoqiao thought, but when she saw her call her husband, her face turned red as if she had applied rouge, she knew that she was extremely shy. When Li Siwen left and Li Mu came back from the military weapon surveillance, neither of them spoke much.
It's late at night and the two of them are alone. Bai Qiaoqiao's call to the husband made Li Mu's heart beat. Although he had never smelled the smell of meat in his life, he was not a virgin in his previous life. He knew and experienced this matter between men and women. Although he could not be regarded as a hungry ghost in the sex, a little beauty with a symbol called the husband and looked like he could pick it up. The long night was long, and as long as he was a man, how could he not be moved?
Li Mu hid in the night and licked his dry lips, saying unnaturally: "It's a temporary measure to call you a wife during the day, so don't take it to your heart. Our affairs are still as said that day, take your time, slowly..."
"Do you want to regret it?" Bai Qiaoqiao put down the quilt and asked softly. She picked up the fire and lit the wax, and Li Mu had nowhere to hide. Looking at Bai Qiaoqiao's shining eyes, Li Mu had somehow lost his courage and could not speak against his will.
"It's cold at night. Mom is worried that you will be cold, so I'll come over with a quilt."
So that's the case. Li Mu was a little disappointed, and it seemed that he was self-indulgent. He didn't realize that Bai Qiaoqiao had changed the name of Sun from "女" to "女", and the word "big" was missing, but the meaning was very different.
Bai Qiaoqiao spread the quilt open and didn't rush back. Seeing that she was not leaving, Li Mu stayed for a moment, gave up a seat and said, "Do you want to... sit for a while?"
Bai Qiaoqiao sat down next to him, and the two of them leaned against the wall, and there was the candle in front of them. Against the quiet night, there was nothing to say for a moment.
After a long time, Bai Qiaoqiao spoke first and said, "Li Mu, I have something to ask you."
"Oh?" Li Mu was a little surprised. This was the first time Bai Qiaoqiao asked on his own initiative, and then said, "If you have any questions, you just want to ask."
Bai Qiaoqiao took a deep breath and said, "Do you have a lover?"
"No," Li Mu looked at Bai Qiaoqiao curiously and said, "Where did you come from the sweetheart? Our two families live so close, and you often come to my house. My mother told you everything, do I have a sweetheart? Can you hide it from you?"
Bai Qiaoqiao's face turned red and she whispered: "Maybe it was after transporting grain..."
Li Mu smiled wryly and said, "You can really think that I was caught when I transported grain for the first time. You wouldn't think that I had a Turkic woman in the Turkic camp, did you?"
Bai Qiaoqiao bit her lip and thought to herself that Li Mu's father was killed by the Turks, and he would never like a Turkic woman. Thinking of this, Bai Qiaoqiao mustered up the courage to ask: "You have no sweetheart, why are you close to me? I can't figure out your thoughts and feel confused."
Li Mu quickly said, "Where am I close and separated? I am confused when you say this."
"Why didn't you? You have always been rude to me. I thought you didn't like me. I was about to give up, but you took out six guan of money to buy me from my father. I guess you like me, but you said that if I met someone I like, I would give me a dowry. Isn't this tactful saying that I don't like me? But today, you called me my wife in front of outsiders. Don't you know that my wife can't scream casually? If you really want me to marry someone else and call me like this, others will know that I am your wife, how can I get out?"
Bai Qiaoqiao finished saying such a long sentence in one breath, and used up her courage, and then hung her head on her chest to make an ostrich.
Li Mu was speechless for a moment, and he didn't know how to explain. He couldn't tell Bai Qiaoqiao that Li Mu was dead and I came from time to time. Besides, he couldn't figure out what he was thinking now. Bai Qiaoqiao was right. If he really wanted Bai Qiaoqiao to find a good family in the future, he shouldn't call her wife.
Could it be that in my heart, I have actually regarded Bai Qiaoqiao as a private property and do not want her to fall in love with others, so it is just a high-sounding saying?
Li Mu, Li Mu, you are really hypocritical!
"You, why don't you speak?" Bai Qiaoqiao waited for a long time, but did not see Li Mu answering, and couldn't help but ask.
"I..." Li Mu scratched his head and said, "Okay, I admit that I have a good impression of you and don't want you to like others. But I also think that you should not kidnap you by engagement, so I said that if you have someone you like, I will give you a dowry. Are you satisfied with this answer?"
"Well..." Bai Qiaoqiao's face was blushing, and she responded in a low voice, hesitated for a while, and then said: "Actually, I don't know if I like you because of the engagement. Maybe it was like this before, but since you came back from transporting food this time, I felt that you were different. I can't tell where it is different. But in the past, you wouldn't buy me for six guan. If you like it, it was probably the moment you pulled me behind and grabbed the stick my father beat me, I really liked you..."
Bai Qiaoqiao's voice became less and less, and she was so ashamed that she jumped off the wooden board and ran away without looking back.
Li Mu smiled at her back. It was the first time she had lived for two lives to be confessed by a girl. This feeling was really comfortable! Li Mu was not a shy person. Since the woman had expressed her feelings, how could a man be a real man behave like a daughter? He didn't like Bai Qiaoqiao. Since that's the case, what if he accepted this relationship? Bai Qiaoqiao is beautiful and virtuous. Only he is not worthy of others, and no one is not worthy of him, and he will not suffer any loss at all!
