Chapter 69 Stone
The strange atmosphere was stalemate for a short time. Several people who were originally relaxed and cheerful in the courtyard also noticed that the atmosphere was wrong, but they only saw four men standing in place with different cold or ashamed expressions, while Lu Mengjian's unnoticed squatting on the ground and playing.
Aunt Li couldn't figure out the situation and didn't dare to rush forward. Seeing that water vapor began to emerge from the distiller, she gently got up, pulled Lu Mengjian to her side, lowered her voice and asked, "What's wrong with Mr. Lin today? Isn't it these three guests..."
Before the end of the words, Lu Mengji quickly put his index finger in front of his lips and made a silent gesture, "We don't have to worry about their men's affairs." After saying that, Aunt Li naturally said no more when she took the porcelain basin beside her and drenched water on the condensed tube.
Finally, Lin Daimo's body shook slightly, and his face was still like an iceberg, "Go into the room and say it." Although his breath was cold, Fang Yuan listened as if he was relieved in his ears. He wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, followed the hall respectfully with Yuwen Yuwu, and immediately closed the door.
Seeing this, a strange smile appeared on Lu Mengjian's face. It seems that Lin Dai can no longer escape and can only face the reality.
However, Aunt Li was vaguely worried. After all, the three men were a little stronger than Lin Daimo. If there was a conflict in the room, wouldn't it be Lin Daimo who suffered? She couldn't help looking at Lu Mengjian worriedly, but there was no look of worry on her face. With her personality, she couldn't help but open her mouth to remind her. .
"Meng Jian, are you really not afraid of meeting some evil people when we live in such a remote place?"
"If we should meet, we will meet sooner or later, but at least we are still safe now," Lu Mengji responded with a smile, but her heart also fluctuated a little. As for this problem, she had also worried, but after living here for so long, she has not found anything abnormal, even except for these people who are familiar with each other. Japan can't even see the shadow of strangers. Besides, when it comes to the wilderness, it must be impossible for those robbers to squeeze out some oil and water from here, so they can calm down.
Shortly after Aunt Li moved in, she was used to the peaceful life in the village. Although the population of Shita Village is not very large, at least there are neighbors around the door. Even if there is something to do at home, she can take care of it. If she is here, everything can only be done by herself, so it is inevitable to worry. Thinking about this, naturally, I always feel unsteady.
"If Zhong'er's father is okay today, he can always take care of him," Aunt Li looked at the closed door and lowered her voice. On the contrary, she made Lu Mengjian feel that the man in the room and Aunt Li were a family, and although she had been with him under the same roof for a long time, she did not feel worried at all. Black line.
Seven days ago, after careful consideration, and after Li's mother-in-law and maliciously scolding the street because Zhong'er stole a chicken leg, they finally made up their mind to move to the barren mountain where Lin Daimo lived. Although Li Dazhuang was attached to Shita Village, he was not willing to see his mother-in-law treated like that again. Therefore, he left his hometown and came here.
Although the living space here is really limited, there is no worry about eating and drinking. In addition, Aunt Li helps Lu Mengjian with flowers and plants all day long, and she can also get some silver, which is also reassuring. So in recent days, after discussion, Li Dazhuang decided to buy some adobe bricks from nearby villages and build a small house next to the current forest house for his family to live in. Therefore, he drove an ox cart to a nearby village early this morning. Now there are only four women and children in the family, a man with Lin Daimo, so suddenly three big men came. It is reasonable for Aunt Li to worry.
"The four of them are old friends. Aunt Li, don't worry about it. Besides, their appearance is not fierce and evil. You can rest assured." Lu Mengjian's calm words undoubtedly gave Aunt Li a reassurance. Although Aunt Li is still uneasy, it is inconvenient to live again. Many words.
After more than half an hour, the door of the hall slowly opened from the inside, but Liu's mother came out, followed by Lin Daimo with an indifferent expression. Fang Yuan and others stood behind him, but the expression on his face was obviously much relaxed, and even a smile was hidden at the corners of his mouth.
Only then did Lu Mengjian realize that he only cared about collecting essential oils with Aunt Li, but he didn't realize that Liu's mother was still in the room. He couldn't help but put on an expression of watching the play. His eyes glanced at Lin Daimo's slightly drooping eyelids, but unexpectedly, the other party seemed to notice the eyes here and looked up here. Lu Mengjian was so scared that he quickly lowered his head. , he muttered in a low voice: "Oh, the porcelain bottle I bought by Uncle Li last time is about to run out. It seems that I have to buy a few more in two days."
As a result, Aunt Li took it seriously, and the result was stuttering, "Mengjian, you remember it wrong. Didn't all the essential oils we refined a few days ago? Those porcelain bottles haven't been used yet."
Lu Mengji smiled and nodded quickly. When he looked up again, Lin Daimo had already turned his eyes elsewhere, but heard Liu's mother look at the four people at the door with a smile on her face.
"Go on talking. I have this old bone. After sitting for a long time, I have to get up and walk. You are important. Just now, the old woman, said nonsense. Don't take it to heart," Liu's mother said and was about to raise her legs and walk towards Lu Mengji, and the few people behind her softly answered a few words and returned to the room, but this time Let the door open, the atmosphere is no longer as tense as before.
"What kind of water did you do today? How does it smell different from the previous days?" Liu's mother came over and sniffed in front of the porcelain basin. She felt that the fragrance was different from those mentioned in the past, so she looked at Lu Mengji curiously.
Lu Mengjian smiled, opened the porcelain bottle in her hand, shook it in front of Liu's mother's nose, and stuffed the cork again, and pretended to be mysteriously, "Mama Liu, haven't you seen a wide range of things? This time you can guess what flowers are in it?"
"You girl, there are so many flowers in the world, how can I guess? Don't test me, an old woman," Liu's mother was old, but she played tricks like a child, which made the two people next to her laugh. Zhong'er heard the noise and ran over to join in the fun, but was pulled by Liu's mother and held in her arms. "Good loyalty, Do you know what kind of flowers your sister uses today? Yes, grandma will give you candy.
Zhonger was about to answer, but he saw Lu Mengjian blinking his eyes cunly. His little brain turned and scratched his head and said, "Grandma Liu, I don't know what kind of flower it is, but the flower is so fragrant, like the thread used for my mother's embroidery. Grandma Liu, do you still have sugar to eat like this?
"You little devil," Liu's mother made a point on Zhong'er's little brain and said with a smile, "Even if Zhong'er doesn't know, grandma will give Zhong'er candy. Your sister deliberately sells tricks, so we won't give it to her."
Lu Mengji deliberately squatted in front of Liu's mother with a bitter face. Zhong'er saw that the beautiful sister was unhappy and was busy breaking free from Liu's mother's arms. She said righteously, "Sister is not happy, and Zhong'er would rather not eat sugar."
This made Liu's mother lose face. Lu Mengji laughed again, put Zhonger aside, took out the porcelain bottle in his arms and handed it to Liu's mother. "Liu's mother, I just joked with you, but this name----"
Lu Mengjie deliberately sold the customs. Looking at Liu Maba's staring at herself, she turned around again, "Why don't we exchange with each other? Tell me what you just heard in the room, and I'll tell you the name of the flower?"
Although Lu Mengji is not very interested in Lin Daimo's affairs, the appearance of these four people today is deeply curious. It happens that Liu's mother heard their words clearly in the room, so it is inevitable that she wants to know more about them.
"It turns out that you are waiting for me here," Liu's mother was not angry. She raised her finger on Lu Mengji's forehead and smiled happily. "Ok, anyway, it's not a big secret. Sooner or later, you will know, and it's okay to tell you."
So 5110 told Lu Mengjian about the news she heard in the room, and even Aunt Li beside her did not avoid it. Lu Mengjian peeked at the note from the flying pigeon's biography earlier and was ready for it, but there seemed to be a thunder in Aunt Li's ear.
"What! Let Mr. Lin be the big shopkeeper of Stone Records in the city?" Aunt Li exclaimed and forgot the four people in the room. After saying that, she knew that she had lost her temper and quickly covered her mouth with her hand.
"Stone Records should have belonged to our young master. What's so strange about this!" Liu's mother was very dissatisfied with Aunt Li's reaction and couldn't help snorting coldly.
After getting along with each other for a long time, Aunt Li only felt that Lin Daimo did not act like ordinary people, but only said that he came from Pulan City. Naturally, the city people were not like rural people, but she didn't expect that he was the eldest son of the famous Lin family in the city, and immediately sat back on the wooden stool. Lu Mengjie had long guessed the identity of Lin Daimo, so she was not surprised. Compared with the identity of the young grandmother of the Lin family, she preferred the life of ordinary people.
"Since the stone record belongs to his father-in-law, why does he refuse to take over the business of stone record today?" Lu Mengyi remembered Lin Daimo's extremely gloomy face today. He really couldn't figure out what to refuse about this matter. What's more, with Liu's mother's intention, only Lin Daimo was very familiar with the management of Stone Records. Fang Yuan was his former companion student, and it was inevitable to invite him to be a big shopkeeper.
"It's not that you don't know the temper of our young master. He is stubborn and can't pull back a cow. Besides, when he left the Lin family, he was humiliated by that woman... Alas, no wonder he doesn't want to be involved with the Lin family anymore!" Liu's mother remembered the scene described by the servants of the Lin family, and it was inevitable that she was sad for Lin Daimo. "Even if the young master really refuses to take over the stone, I will respect his choice."
Lu Mengji is naturally happy to hear that there is a ready-made storefront to take over. At least he can improve the living environment at home, but after all, that is Lin Daimo's business. Even if he is full of hope, he can't influence his decision.
Thinking like this, Lin Daimo suddenly came out of the hall and came to Liu's mother.
