MTL - Pihanjin-Chapter 31
Deliberately led him to know that he was taking the decoction, deliberately provoked him with a dyed phoenix red attitude when he was about to come back, deliberately magnified his reaction when he kissed himself in front of him, and also deliberately, undressed in front of him and made a After Fan Ru struggled, he was finally willing to submit to his peaceful attitude.
Mu Fulan knew that these tricks could not be concealed from him. Even if Xie Changgeng didn't fully react at the time, he would definitely be able to see through it later with his mind and the city.
But what does it matter?
Not only is it okay, but instead, let him see through, this is what she wants.
That night more than a month ago, he was angry and walked away. She originally thought that when he came back, she would let herself go back immediately.
Unexpectedly, even when he was clearly provoked, he actually endured it.
The tolerance and patience he showed to her surprised her for the first time.
Just after that failure, for more than a month, everything she did was to avoid completely tearing her face off with him, and who was more patient than in this tug of war.
Mu Fulan was convinced that even if a person like Xie Changgeng was interested in a woman, it would be impossible to give too much patience.
His heart is too big. As far as he is concerned, he is no more than a person who can add a little relaxation and fun to him in the night after his busy day.
He likes women who are gentle and considerate - such as his wife in the previous life, the woman before he became a drag on him, he should like it.
Now his little interest in her and the patience that he has developed because of his interest will disappear sooner or later with her various "tortures" that make him choked up, and it won't last long. Once he loses that interest, what's the use for him to stay by his side? And his pride will not make him tolerate the wordless humiliation that he has repeatedly imposed on him.
After more than a month of tossing, just tonight, he finally lost his patience with her completely.
She won.
Mu Fulan called Mu's mother and said that she could go back, so she packed up that night.
Xie Changgeng didn't return to the room that night, and Mu Fulan learned of the night he spent in the study. According to the maid, the study was lit all night long.
Early in the morning the next day, as soon as it was dawn, Mu Fulan was ready to leave. Before leaving, she asked Mu's mother to go to the study.
Xie Changgeng seemed to have not slept all night, and the candle in the corner had not been extinguished. He was sitting with a roll of official documents in his hand, bloodshot eyes in his eyes, and a tired expression on his face.
Mu's mother said respectfully: "Master Weng is leaving now. The steward said that the **** was arranged according to Jiedushi's instructions. Master Weng asked me to pass a message, thank you Jiedushi for arranging."
Xie Changgeng's expression was indifferent, he didn't lift his eyelids, and he didn't even speak. There was only an impatient expression on his face, and he brushed his hands.
Mu's mother knew that he was urging her to leave, thanked her, bowed, then backed out, came back, and told Mu Fulan what happened.
How could Mu Fulan care about his attitude.
If no one else is here this morning, that's fine. Now that she is there, what you think is his business. He has made arrangements for her departure, and it is also his duty to express his thanks.
The streets in the city were empty, and the gate of the Jiedushi Mansion was busy. Several carriages were parked at the door, and the servants carried the box into the carriage, and the steward told the entourage who escorted Weng Zhu back.
It was still the same group of people who sent her from Shangjing to here last time, and they were all well-trained and trusted people.
Mu Fulan stood at the door, watching Mu's mother and the maid put all their belongings on the carriage, checked them one by one, and made sure that not a single strand of hair fell out of the house, and got into the carriage.
The steward seemed to have not recovered from the shock and embarrassment that the hostess was about to be hastily sent away by the hostess overnight. Body said: "Master Weng has a good journey."
Mu Fulan smiled and thanked the steward, sat down, and ordered to go.
The carriage roared and carried her on the way back to Changsha.
As soon as she left her aunt, she forgot all the previous matters, and she just wanted to get back to Changsha as soon as possible.
It's been several months since she was separated from Xi'er. She almost lived like a year, and she missed him so much that she wished she could fly back to him immediately.
At the end of February this year, after rushing on the road for nearly a month, she finally left Henan and returned to Changsha.
Mu Fulan didn't go back to Yuecheng first, and asked someone to send a message to Mu Xuanqing first, then turned around and rushed to Junshan directly.
Hee is there now.
The reason why she didn't send people directly to Yuecheng before was because she was afraid that she would not be there. Xi'er, who was used to a quiet and simple life since childhood, would not adapt to the environment of the palace.
In the letter to the sister-in-law at that time, she simply mentioned that Ju Xier was the adopted son whom she recognized abroad, and asked her to send a few careful maids to Junshan Yaolu to take care of him, and bring him back when she returned.
She entered the mountain by boat and went up the mountain steps. In the evening, she finally stopped in front of the Chaimen of Yaolu.
The Chaimen was half-closed, and there was a faint scent of medicine floating in the air. Mu Fulan saw that Ah Da was busy packing the herbs in the courtyard, and his back was busy.
She suppressed her excitement and anxiety and pushed open the firewood door.
The young man turned his head and saw Mu Fulan standing at the door, happily dropped what was in his hand, ran over, and bowed to her.
Mu Fulan asked Xier.
Adao: "Everything is fine, young master! Also, the master came back last month!"
Yao Weng came back last month and liked Xi'er very much. He often took him by his side and taught him to identify various herbs. Yaoweng went down the mountain to see a doctor today, and Xier was at home.
Ah Da said that Xi'er should be playing at the back at the moment, with a maid beside her.
Hearing the phrase "well," the heart that was hanging all the way, finally let go. The news that the master has also returned is even more pleasing.
Mu Fulan hurried through the cottage and came to the medicine garden behind.
Xi'er was not seen in the medicine garden. She called out.
The maid was preparing dinner in the room, and hurried out after hearing the sound, when she saw Mu Fulan returning, she hurriedly greeted her.
"Where's the little boy?"
"The young master is still here just now, so we don't have to accompany him..."
Mu Fulan looked around and saw that the door leading to the top of Back Mountain was open.
"Yes! It must be the young master who went to the top of the mountain by himself! He often goes there, and it takes a long time to sit there!" The maid thought and said.
Mu Fulan went up immediately, and climbed a tortuous mountain road in one breath, panting, and finally reached the top of the mountain.
Her steps stopped.
She saw a small figure sitting on a rock beside the mountain, facing the direction of Shangjing.
The golden sunset shone from the side, the sun was setting in the forest, the rock nest was waiting for the birds, and a group of birds circled near his head, making bursts of chirping.
The child seemed to have not heard of it, sitting quietly, motionless, looking forward, as if fascinated.
Mu Fulan's eyes became hot.
She knew why he climbed to the top of the mountain and why he looked at Shangjing.
He thought he was still in Beijing.
She calmed down and called out "Xi'er".
The child hesitated, turned his head slowly, and saw Mu Fulan standing behind him, his eyes instantly became extremely bright.
"Mother!"
He screamed in surprise, and the man jumped off the stone at once, turned around and ran towards her, and threw himself into her arms.
Mu Fulan stretched out her arms, hugged her son tightly in her arms, smiled, and kept kissing his face, blaming him for not coming here alone.
Xi'er's two little hands were tightly around her neck, her face was in her arms, and she said softly, "I'm not afraid. I'll be very careful."
Mu Fulan sat on the stone, hugged Xier and sat on her lap, mother and son talking in a low voice.
"Xi'er, mother made you wait so long to come back, do you blame mother?"
Xi'er shook his head vigorously at first, and after a while, he looked up at Mu Fulan and whispered, "Xi'er is just a little scared..."
"What are you afraid of? Tell my mother."
He whispered: "One night, I had a dream that my mother was gone and I was alone. I wanted to find my mother, but I don't know where you are..."
His voice gradually disappeared, and his hands tightly grasped Mu Fulan's sleeves, refusing to let go.
Mu Fulan stared at the familiar pair of eyes in her arms, bright and innocent, with a few strands of sadness, she couldn't help but think of the child in her previous life who had accompanied her through countless lonely mornings and evenings in the old house in Xie County. , filled with sour and hot feelings.
With red eyes, she kissed the little man in her arms, tightening her arms around him, before letting go for a long time.
She said: "Xi'er, your mother will take you back to the city. From now on, you will not only have a mother, but also many other people in your life. But remember, except for those who love you , People who are good to you will also have bad people around you. You are still young, and your mother will protect you. My mother told you this because I hope you will not be afraid. Remember, no matter what happens, Starting today, my mother will never be separated from you again!"
Xi'er snuggled quietly in her arms for a moment, suddenly broke free, climbed down from her lap, stood with both feet on the ground, and said loudly: "I remember! I also want to grow up quickly, protect my mother. Dear, I must not let the bad guys bully my mother!"
His voice was still very immature, but it was very loud. The sound he made shocked the flock of birds hovering above his head, flapped his wings, and flew high into the sky.
Mu Fulan was startled, then nodded with a smile: "Mother is waiting for that day!"
…
Yao Weng came back after dark and was very happy to see Mu Fulan. The master and the apprentice talked and talked about Xi'er's origin. Mu Fulan said that he was an orphan.
Yao Weng said with a smile: "The first time I saw this child, I felt a good face, as if I had seen it before, but I couldn't remember it for a while. It seems that I have a good fate with you. This child usually doesn't talk much. , but very smart. I have nothing to teach him to identify herbs, and he remembers it as soon as I say it. Cultivate it well, and it will become a great tool in the future."
Mu Fulan thanked Yaoweng.
She didn't go back to the city that night, but stayed in the medicine hut, and the mother and son slept together.
The hut is simple, and a lamp is like a bean, but she is satisfied. She hugged Jiao Er, who was sleeping soundly in her arms, and looked at his appearance over and over again.
Early the next day, the person Mu Xuanqing sent to pick her up arrived, and Mu Fulan took Xi'er into the city and returned to the palace. When the family met, Mu Fulan took Xi'er's hand and brought him to his brother and sister-in-law, smiling: "He is Xi'er. Although he is my adopted son, he is better than my own son. I hope my brother and sister-in-law will add more in the future. I'm very grateful for your attention."
Xi'er respectfully saluted Mu Xuanqing and Lu's, and called them "uncle" and "aunt" according to Mu Fulan's instructions.
Lu shi smiled and helped Xier up, met her face to face, and was stunned for a while, thinking that it was a coincidence, and then called her daughter Aru and told her to take her new brother to the residence. Knowing that her husband and sister-in-law should have something to say, she stayed for a while and then retreated.
Mu Xuanqing withdrew from his entourage and immediately asked, "Amy, I learned that Empress Liu was going to take you as a hostage, but you were taken to Hexi by Xie Changgeng. Half a month ago, I didn't know you were coming back. On the way, I was really worried, because Han Ding just came back and sent him to Hexi."
The iron output of the Ru subway mine was smooth, and the arsenal was beginning to take shape. The craftsmen began to work around the clock to build the blade armor. Yuan Handing explained the matter to his subordinates. Half a month ago, he returned to Yuecheng and learned that Mu Xuanqing wanted to send someone to Hexi to bring Mu Fulan back, so he proposed to lead the team.
Mu Xuanqing was determined to bring back Wang Mei, but she knew that she had offended Xie Changgeng before, and she was even more unsure why he would take his sister out of Beijing. trip. One is to find out the truth, and the other is to find ways to bring Miss Wang back. But Amei fell into the opponent's hands. Even if she was willing to put down her figure and repair, she didn't know the attitude of the other party. It was not an easy task to pick someone up. The leader of the team was originally intended for Lu Lin. It's just that Lu Lin was sick again these days, just in time for Yuan Handing to come back.
He is steady in his work, won the championship and the three army, and grew up together with his brother and sister. He took the initiative to speak, which was exactly what Mu Xuanqing wanted. So he prepared a thank-you gift, selected a good person, and after a few words, Yuan Handing set off for Hexi.
"The journey must be over halfway through. Even if I send someone to chase it, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up!"
Mu Fulan was surprised and moved.
Brother Wang had a long history of disgust with Xie Changgeng, but now, for his own sake, he was willing to put down his body and send someone to ask for favors from Xie Changgeng.
She pondered for a while, and said: "Brother Wang, it's better for Brother Yuan to go this way. I was about to tell Brother Wang that Xie Changgeng promised earlier that if Empress Liu wants to attack my Changsha country, he will protect me. Neither do we. I hope that someone will really protect us, but the national strength is not yet up. If something happens, if he doesn't embarrass us, it will be a good thing. Brother Yuan has received your order, and when he arrives there, he knows that I am back, and he will respond accordingly. The gift of thanks should be regarded as the thanks of the king to him."
Mu Xuanqing was surprised.
The last time Xie Changgeng came over and said he left with a grudge, it was no exaggeration. Later, when he learned that he took Amei out of Beijing, Mu Xuanqing was already puzzled, not knowing what his motives were.
Now that I hear this, I am even more confused.
When my sister said so, it was true. But how could Xie Changgeng be so magnanimous?
He was unimaginable.
He looked at his sister, his expression suddenly changed, he stood up abruptly, and said sharply, "Did the surnamed Xie bully you?"
Mu Fulan looked calm, and said, "Brother Wang, don't be impatient. He and I are husband and wife. It's not about bullying or not bullying. Good thing."
Mu Xuanqing was stunned for a while, then slowly clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and said word by word: "Amei, Brother Wang swears that in the future, if the country of Changsha rises up, Brother Wang will not ask you to suffer any more. grievance!"
