C38

In the dark night, the bright moonlight shrouded Niu Manor. This small and tranquil village dispelled the pressure and mystery brought by the dark night.

Under the soft and beautiful moonlight, Qi Mu slowly approached the main house of the Ye family. Her footsteps were very light, as if she was afraid of disturbing something. At a corner not too far away from the main house of Ye Guang and Li Clan, Qi Mu bent down and put down the heavy basket.

Lifting up the bamboo basket, Qi Mu took out the 'scalding knife' and a square cut chicken that she had bought today. She placed these two things in her embrace, tightly covered the basket, and pushed it into a dark and hidden corner. Only then did she give a slight smile, and look at her masterpiece with satisfaction.

If he brought such a 'valuable and precious item' to the main house, then Lady Li, Zhang Chunji … That group of shameless people saw that if they didn't cause some trouble, then the sun would probably rise from the west!

In addition, he brought along a basket of items, but ended up giving half of it to Ye Guangzong's old man. The rest would have to be given to the "outsiders" in his mind.

The people of this era lived in a large clan. If there was anything good, they would naturally stay within the territory of others. It was best to do things in a more thorough manner, Qi Muxin thought.

In the yard of the main house of the Ye family, Ye Dazhuang was lying on the rocking chair, basking in the moonlight. His eyes were slightly squinted, and he was singing over and over again.

"Tian Fu threw the seedlings of the field women to catch, the children to pull out the seedlings of the children inserted.

The bamboo hat was a straw hat, the rain dripped from head to neck.

After calling the court to rest for a while, he lowered his head and did not answer.

The roots are not yet in place, and the chickens and ducklings are taken care of. "

He looked at the old man's back, and a smile appeared in his eyes as he thought to himself: I didn't think that this old man who looks serious and doesn't like to talk would have such a hobby. Let alone this, his voice is loud and filled with emotion as he sang.

Even her heart seemed to have been infected by the unyielding power of the peasants. Even her heart was beating more vigorously!

"Grandfather, grandfather."

After the old man sang a song, Qi Mu looked at his unsatisfied expression and immediately called out to him. Then, he walked up to him with quick steps.

"Ah?" Who? It turns out to be the second brother's daughter, Mu Lü. "

The old man turned to look at Qi Mu and smiled amiably. There was no trace of the bottomless coldness and indifference he had towards the second branch of the Ye family.

The smile on Qi Mu's face widened as he saw this. He put the item in his pocket onto the old man's body before saying,

"Grandfather, my parents told me to bring this to honor you, and a pot of wine as well!"

At first, the old man was startled by Qi Mu's sudden action, but then he saw the item placed in his arms and held it with both hands. After hearing Qi Mu's words, he lowered his head to take a look.

"Good girl, I've troubled you. These two things are too heavy!" "That unfilial son knows that I just love to drink a few mouthfuls of wine. Hmph, and he even knows that you want to buy some meat and wine to honor me. I didn't raise him for nothing …"

Old Man Ye sat up and straightened his body. He held the 'Burning Knife' close to his nose and smelled it again and again. The fragrance of the wine made him unwittingly look intoxicated.

Qi Mu saw him swearing at his family's cheap old man, but his eyes couldn't conceal the joy and happiness in his eyes. He felt it was both funny and cute.

Seeing that the old man didn't have anything else to say, Qi Mu let out a sigh of relief. He smiled and was about to say his farewells, since she still had other places to go, but unexpectedly, the old man seemed to have awakened from a beautiful dream. He frowned and said in a low voice:

"Mu lass, where did your father get the money to buy it?" A few days ago, your mother and you asked for the doctor's money. It was all given to you by us, so how could a filial son like him have a single copper coin?! Say it! "

"Grandpa …"

Qi Mu slightly raised her head and looked at the Ye family's old patriarch with a perfect and proper smile. She quickly concealed her unnatural thought when she first heard of it and was about to explain when the Ye family's old patriarch glared at her with a scary and sharp gaze and said in a serious tone:

"You have to tell your grandfather honestly. If that unfilial son did something he shouldn't have done, I can also take care of him. That way, you guys will have a good day, do you understand?"

The old man Ye was thinking for her family. Otherwise, he would eat as much as he ate, drink as much as he drank, and have half of his body buried in the dirt. Why would he care about such things? He had messed with her for nothing!

"Grandfather, what are you so worried about! "Father did not steal nor do anything bad to me, but you should know that my father is an honest and honest man.!"

"Let me tell you, a few days ago, I didn't have much to eat at home, so I went up the mountain to gather a lot of things." Let me tell you, a few days ago, I didn't have much to eat at home, so I went up the mountain to gather a lot of things.

"I didn't expect that I would really meet such a rich person. Maybe he was just feeling sorry for me when a rich person passed by and gave me some money to buy everything. That's why I have the money to buy wine and eat meat for grandpa!"

Qi Mu was not afraid of the Ye family's old man. He walked up to him with a smile and pulled his sleeve as he spoke with a hint of coquettishness and a hint of seriousness.

"Really?"

Lordmaster Ye raised an eyebrow as he asked, his expression softening a bit. He was obviously a bit convinced now.

"It's true! Or else, Grandpa will personally ask my parents!" Qi Mu said affirmatively.

"Mm …" "That's good, that's good. Girl, I don't know where you got your luck, what did you pick up from the mountain, to buy this wine and meat!"

Seeing that the Ye family's old patriarch had started to joke with her, he opened the lid of the wine jug and drank some wine while appreciating the starry sky. Qi Mu chatted with him for a while before leaving, carrying the basket and hurrying over to Aunt Liu's house.

Qi Mu lightly knocked on Aunt Wang's shabby wooden door. She knocked a few times and then stood there quietly, waiting to hear if there were any movements inside. The ancients rested early, so she was afraid of disturbing their rest.

The door creaked open, revealing half of the Wang family's aunt's face. When she saw that it was the Mu girl from next door, she opened the door without worry.

"Little Mu, it's so late. What's the matter?" Don't tell me your family got into trouble again? "Quickly tell Aunt."

Qi Mu smiled and shook his head. He took out three skewers of candied fruits and a small piece of chicken from the basket, pushed it in front of Aunt Wang, and said:

"Aunt, don't worry. Ever since we separated that day, my family has been living a good life, and life has been very comfortable. Since my family has some good stuff, I have to hurry over to Aunt Xie!"

"Aunt, thank you for speaking up for me that day. Otherwise, I don't even know if that family will get a share!" These three candied fruits are for Ergou-zi to eat. This meat will nourish Aunt's body so that a fat child can be born! "

The Wang family's aunt was momentarily stunned. After looking at it for a long time, she finally spoke with a face full of disbelief:

"Mu lass, is your family rich?" Why would there be such a thing? "

Qi Mu smiled gently and said calmly:

"Aunt, what are you talking about? What do you mean by not getting rich? "I just so happened to go to the town to sell some stuff. The rich and powerful families took pity on me and gave me some copper coins in exchange!"

"This, this …" Borrowing the moonlight, Qi Mu saw the hesitating and conflicted expression on the Wang family's aunt's face. After a long while, she seemed to have made up her mind and stuffed her things into Qi Mu's basket.

"I can't accept it, and it's not easy for you either. Keep it and eat it slowly, thank you so much Aunt."

In the past, she only knew that this Wang family's aunt was mean and sarcastic with her words, but she was a straightforward person with a sense of righteousness. Today, she found out that the heavens had given her a good heart and sent free gifts to the door, but the situation in her family wasn't too good, so she didn't accept them.

"Aunt, take it. Aunt, if you don't take it, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep well in the future. It's not like I brought my entire family over to thank you, so why do you have to go through all this trouble?" "Aunt, don't worry. My family has been living quite well lately. They just sent some gifts to the main house. Aunty, quickly take them!"

"Aunt, if it's for the good of my family, don't tell anyone else. It would save you the trouble of bringing people to my house and turning everything upside down. Aunty, please take it quickly. My hands are sore from holding it for too long, please consider it as Aunt helping me!"

Qi Mu tried his best to persuade her. While Aunt Wang's face was a little relaxed, he stuffed her into her arms. He hurriedly took a few steps back, stopping only after he was some distance away from Aunt Wang.

Aunt Wang lowered her head to look at the things in her arms. The candied fruits were very fragrant, and the meat even had a hint of a fishy smell. As she smelled it, she felt that it was the best smell in the world.

"Auntie thanks, thank you your family …"

When Qi Mu heard this, he gently smiled and gently said:

"Aunt, it is you who is kind. If you are willing to help our family, there will be good rewards for good people …" "Aunt, it's late at night. I'll go back first. Aunt, you should get some rest as well."

"Alright, hurry up and go back. Be careful on the road and stop messing around …"

The Wang family's sister-in-law exhorted Qi Mu as Yang Lili usually did, and Qi Mu returned a smile. After agreeing, she turned around and left.

As for Aunt Wang, she stood in front of the door and watched the back of Qi Mu until she couldn't see anything. Then, she used her sleeve to wipe the corners of her eyes, closed the door, and entered the room.

In the dark corner far away, Qi Mu leaned against the wall, expressionless. He peeked his eyes out and secretly watched as that person closed the door. Only then did he smile faintly, after that person left, she still had to go to the next house, Aunt Lin's house.

"..."

Qi Mu gave Aunt Lin half a catty of meat and six skewers of candied fruits. Aunt Lin was willing to take them all the way to her house. She held her hand and thanked her profusely, causing Qi Mu's face to redden slightly.

What he gave Aunt Lin and the old man were only half a catty of chicken, while what he gave Aunt Wang was three taels of meat. It wasn't that she was petty, but there was always a difference between people who were close to each other.

The Wang family only had a boy, a second son, and the Lin family had two daughters. As a result, it was given six strings.

"..."

After she finished all this, Qi Mu touched the last of the alcohol in the basket, the 'burning knife', that was left for Doctor Fang. After she finished all this, Qi Mu touched the last of the alcohol in the basket, 'burning knife', that was left for Doctor Fang.

On the other side, the man in the blue shirt whom Qi Mu met in the afternoon carried a basket on his back and walked quickly. On the other side, the man in the blue shirt whom Qi Mu met in the afternoon held a basket on his back and walked quickly.
