Chapter 171 Heart Hurt
Girl's tears are the most lethal for an affectionate man. In particular, he likes this girl.
"No wonder you practice the water system. It turns out that you can cry so much." Li Mu brought a silk scarf and tried to wipe away Yang Xueyi's tears, but it would only wipe more and more.
From seeing her, Li Mu saw her cry more than laugh.
To make girls cry is a manifestation of a boy's incompetence.
If you can't wipe it off, just let it vent. Everyone feels uncomfortable being betrayed by their favorite and most trusted person. If Li Mu is betrayed by Tongyuan Daxian, then Li Mu will be more uncomfortable than anyone else.
Gently picked up the quilt and covered the beautiful body. Li Mu sighed and his heart was full of self-reproach.
If she had come out early to stop it, wouldn't she be so sad? If he knew that Yang Xueyi would be so sad, even if Li Mu was misunderstood by her again, he would stop Guan Zhongzi as soon as possible.
"P pressed." Li Mu blamed himself and punched the bedpost and turned away. It's too selfish for me to do this. If I had stopped the disclosure of Guan Zhongzi early, things would not have developed like this, and Yang Xueyi would not have to be so sad.
"I'm next door. If you have anything, just shout." Walking to the door, Li Mu said impatiently and then went out.
Next to Guan Zhongzi's room, now that Guan Zhongzi has left, Li Mu just used it.
The sound of insects outside the window came in with the moonlight, and the chirping sound made the whole room particularly quiet. Yang Xueyi sobbed faintly, and tears had already soaked her hair and soaked the pillow.
Li Mu left, and she was left alone in the room, as if darkness suddenly came over. She was like a lonely lamp, swaying in the endless darkness.
She is afraid that in the endless darkness, there will be unknown dangers that will devour her. This fear comes from people's hearts. No matter how strong or bold they are, they will have this feeling. Compared with nature, people are too weak.
The sobbing turned into silent tears, like the quiet flow of the moonlight, with no end.
Yang Xueyi's mind was full of Guan Zhongzi's ugly face, which made her fall in love in vain, in exchange for deception and injury.
Time slipped away, the moonlight gradually faded, and the worms gradually stopped, but her heart was fixed in that second and could not calm down for a long time. It's easy to carve a scar, but it's extremely difficult to erase it.
What to take to repair the inner trauma, is it time?
Tonight, someone is destined to sleep.
......
The next morning, the traffic on the street woke up the person who had just fallen asleep and accepted the lazy morning light with a trace of fatigue. Li Mu was also a little more energetic. Opening the window, the fresh air poured in like a child from school.
People's mood is always affected by the environment, and the fresh environment brings a fresh mood. Looking at the lively and busy people on the street, it seems that they have returned to the comfortable days before. The corners of Li Mu's mouth also unconsciously raised a relaxed and natural arc.
There was a steamed bun stall opposite the building, and business was booming. The 30-year-old woman greeted the guests enthusiastically, with a happy smile on her face. That is the kindness from the heart and the purest friendship.
The person who bought steamed buns either sat on the next table and ordered a bowl of bean curd brains, or took them away in a paper bag and ate while walking.
Li Mu smiled and walked downstairs.
"Young man, what kind of stuffed bun do you want?" Seeing Li Mu, the woman greeted him warmly. Although Li Mu is about the same age as her, Li Mu, as a practicing person, is very young at the age of 30 and looks no different from an eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy. And the woman is just a commoner, and years and life have already left traces on her face. Therefore, it is reasonable for her to call Li Mu as a young man.
Li Mu said with a smile, "Sister, what kind of steamed buns do you have?"
There are several rows of steamers in front of the woman, and there must be not too many kinds: "There are shallot pork stuffing, beef stuffing with sauce, leek egg stuffing, bean paste stuffing, and cabbage stuffing stuffing. It's all made by yourself. Why don't you try one first? She took out a steamed bun from the middle row of steamers and said, "This is beef stuffing with sauce. Try it."
Li Mu reached out to get it, and the woman reminded him, "Be careful of the heat." The freshly baked steamed buns are hot.
Li Mu smiled gently and didn't care about taking it over. This temperature was not enough for him.
The steamer opened, and a stream of white steam rushed out, with a strong and sweet sauce fragrance. Just smelled it, which made life saliva. Li Mu found a seat next to him and took a gentle bite. The fragrant sauce has been immersed in the noodles, and the sweetness of the beef is mixed with the sauce, which is sweet to the best and fragrant to the extreme.
"Well, it's delicious." Li Mu did not hesitate to say his praise. He could only say that this woman's craftsmanship was really good. Although she was not the best steamed bun she had ever eaten, she was also ingenious.
The spicy taste is not heavy, but she put a little spicy when brewing the sauce. This spicy taste stimulates all the sweetness of the sauce and beef, making people feel more sweet. As for that little spicy taste, it is also easily ignored.
The woman was also a little curious to see that Li Mu's opinion was very correct: "I didn't expect you to know how to cook at a young age." Li Muyi looks like a rich man. Coupled with the indelible curvature of the corners of his mouth, he looked very much like a dboy.
But based on this opinion alone, the woman's impression of Li Mu is much better. It is difficult to find a confidant in the world. It is the most rare thing for someone to appreciate and taste what you make. This is not only an affirmation, but also an encouragement to the creator.
Li Mu shook his head and said, "My elder sister is flattered. I just ate too much to distinguish the taste." Looking at the time, it may take Yang Xueyi to get up for a while. Li Mu said to the woman, "Sister, give me two steamed buns and a bowl of bean curd jelly."
The woman was happy and got steamed buns for Li Mu, then put a bowl of bean curd brains, and chatted with Li Mu.
Although the stuffing of steamed buns she made is different, they are slightly different from those made elsewhere. This small innovation has greatly changed the taste of steamed buns. She added some pepper to the green onion pork, which not only removed the fishy smell of pork, but also stimulated the fragrance. A little lard was added to the leek egg, some wheat sugar was added to the bean paste, and the cabbage was stewed with vermicelli.
Li Mu had more tastes and hobbies of eating elsewhere and gave the woman some advice. The two chatted very speculatively. A foodie and a chef are of course endless topics.
"Oh, sister, I have to go." The sun slowly came through, and Li Mu remembered that it was too early and quickly got up to leave.
Seeing Li Mu's anxious look, the woman asked, "What happened? Do you need my help?"
The clock line came over with several soldiers of the demon army and saw Li Mu coming to greet him: "Mr. Li, you are also here."
All the people in the city of the demon army knew. Seeing that they were so polite to Li Mu, the woman couldn't help looking at Li Mu in surprise and felt that Li Mu's identity was not simple.
Li Mu and Zhong Xing had no time to talk and said to the woman, "Sister, help me fill a bowl of tofu brain, and then take five pork-filled and five beef stuffed buns."
The woman quickly answered, "Oh, that's great."
Li Mu took out an ingot of silver and put it on the table. The woman was shocked and quickly said, "Son, how can I ask for your money? Isn't this... hitting me in the face?"
Li Mu smiled faintly and said, "Sister, don't say that. I have to thank you. It's the first time I've eaten such delicious steamed buns."
Li Mu put down a silver ingot and walked to the opposite inn with steamed buns and tofu brains. Seeing that Li Mu was in a hurry, Zhong Xing quickly asked, "Mr. Li, do you need our help?"
Li Mutou didn't reply and said, "Thank you very much. I don't need your help."
When Li Mu entered the inn, the woman asked, "Captain Zhong, who is this gentleman?"
The fierce reputation of the demon army is far and wide, but it is against the enemy. They are very friendly to their own people.
Zhong Xing looked at Li Mu's back, sighed and said, "A person we can't see through..."
"Dong-dong-"
There was a knock on the door, and then a man's voice came: "Can I come in?"
Yang Xueyi had regained some strength at this time, curled up and squatted in the corner of the bed, covering her body tightly with a quilt. Yesterday's pain made her not want to talk, and the red and swollen eyes silently told her inner sadness.
She asked countless reasons in her heart, but she couldn't find the answer she wanted.
Is it really like what Li Mu said? Brother has been lying to himself all the time. Is he a complete hypocrite? All along, his care and care has been to get his own body?
Yang Xueyi didn't dare to think that she didn't want to lose the only good memory of her childhood.
It was quiet outside the door for a long time, as if he had left again.
Yang Xueyi looked at the door in a daze, but did not move.
"Squeak..."
The door was pushed open. Li Mu came in with something and then gently closed the door.
Seeing Yang Xueyi's frightened appearance, curly expression, red and swollen eyes, Li Mu was stunned. Is this still the girl who exudes youthful vitality? The face was full of vicissitudes, the lingering loss, the faint pupils have cried and dried tears, and the hair fell messy, covering the bloodless face. Even Li Mu pushed the door open and came in, as if he didn't realize it.
Li Mu regretted for a while and walked slowly. Every step was particularly heavy.
