Chapter 5: love at first sight

Casually wiping away the tears on her face, Mu Lian didn't dare to cry anymore.

He believed that his son could feel him, and he didn't want the child to be sad with him anymore.

"Even if mother doesn't want us anymore, father will protect my baby and grow up."

Mulian gently leaned her face to the child in her arms, and said to herself.

After leaving Pingnan Palace, he is no longer Qiao Yun, but Mulian.

He didn't know how bumpy the road ahead was, he only knew that the child in his arms was his life, the only bond between him and her.

Standing outside the wall, Gao Lin and Gao Lang looked at the pile of dirty clothes and the big basin of cold water on the ground, and their resentment towards Nan Jun deepened in their hearts.

"What a crime!" Gao Lang couldn't help but said.

A good son of a noble family is actually living a life that is not as good as that of a servant of the Pingnan Palace.

"We can't just go back and do business like this."

Gao Lin is older and more thoughtful than her younger sister.

If they handed over Qiao Yun and his son so easily, not only would they expose their previous actions, they might even kill the poor father and son.

After a few days, Her Royal Highness will figure it out before making a decision.

What if she regretted taking them back?

Or, did Wang Jun drive them out of the mansion again?

In order not to reveal Qiao Yun's whereabouts, this was the first time for the two sisters to visit them.

Although they asked neighbors to help take care of him at the beginning, but looking at him now is more difficult than they imagined.

Gao Lang glanced at his sister and immediately understood what she meant.

"Then wait."

Just as the two left, a white figure appeared outside the wall.

Nan Jun stood not far away, looking into the wall with a pair of cold eyes, as if trying to see through the people inside.

With her cultivation base, if she intends to follow the two sisters Gao Lin and Gao Lang to find someone, she will definitely not be discovered.

It's just that when seeing all this in front of him, Nan Jun's heart was more shocked than he imagined.

The book only said that his life was not easy, but he did not expect it to be so difficult.

Thinking about it, a man who grew up in the boudoir was kicked out of the house and brought a newborn child with him, how could they be better?

If compared with Qiao Yun, his previous "being cheated on" is nothing.

Nan Jun walked forward uncontrollably, when he saw the man's face clearly, he felt that the world was overshadowed.

"Moshang is like a jade, and the son is unparalleled in the world", he must be talking about this kind of man!

"Nan Ju" is really a blind idiot, if such a beautiful jade is not well protected, he will be thrown into the mortal world.

Nan Jun's heart that had been poked into a hole seemed to be filled suddenly, and what made her feel satisfied was the thin man not far away.

Is this the so-called love at first sight?

It starts with appearance and ends with character.

And how many good men like this have both good looks and character in the world?

Since he is destined to be hers, she will pamper him for the rest of his life and help him reach consummation.

As if she had found a treasure, Nan Jun didn't even know it, the corner of her mouth got bigger and bigger, so big that she couldn't bear to leave.

It's just that Nan Jun couldn't help but feel ashamed when he thought of Shangguan Xi's doting.

It might not be easy to take their father and son back directly!

That being the case, don't blame her for being a "little person".

Nan Jun came and went in a hurry, without being noticed at all.

As the sky was getting dark, Mulian put the child to sleep, and then dragged her sore arms to the door to continue washing the pile of unfinished clothes.

Her stomach was growling with hunger, but Mu Lian just licked her dry lips, showing no intention of cooking.

Mulian's confinement was not done well, and he had no milk on him. In order to buy some goat's milk for his son to satisfy his hunger, he was even more reluctant to eat it.

Drinking two more bowls of water a day can save two copper coins.

Fortunately, there is a well in the corner of the yard, so he doesn't need to go out to fetch water. I think this is one of the reasons why the two sisters of the Gao family found this yard for him.

The water was so cold that people's bones ached, but Mu Lian seemed to be indifferent, still rubbing the clothes in her hands.

On weekdays, he supports his son by doing embroidery and doing laundry for others. If not, their father and son would have starved to death long ago.

There was a sudden sound of fighting outside the door, and Mu Lian was so frightened that she threw down the basin and ran into the house, locking the door.

He had always heard Uncle Zhang say that it was not safe here, but today he felt scared.

After locking the door, Mu Lian went to check the window and picked up the bench on the ground to block the window. Then Mu Lian hurried to the bed and vigilantly picked up the sleeping child.

Her thin body was shaking non-stop, until the sound disappeared, Mu Lian wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.

Carefully putting the child back on the bed, Mulian listened to the door for a long time before hugging the wooden peg to hold the door and going out.

"what!"

As if tripped by something, Mulian yelled out in shock.

Holding the wooden peg and waving it wildly, only hearing a "huh", Mu Lian sat down on the ground in fright.

Even if he lived under the fence since he was a child, he had never been frightened like this, especially when his son was still asleep in the house.

Climbing up tremblingly, Mulian held the peg in both hands to protect her body, enduring fear and looking at the black shadow on the ground.

For some reason, against the background of the moonlight, the profile of the person who fell on the ground looked somewhat like that person...

Mu Lian paused holding the wooden peg's hand, and lightly poked the man's shoulder with the wooden peg. Seeing that she didn't respond, she boldly moved forward.

"Kangdang..."

The sound of the peg falling to the ground was particularly loud in the silent night, and Mu Lian just quietly looked at the woman who fell in front of her, her eyes widened in disbelief.

"Sister Yu..."

The little man called softly, but stared at her face in disbelief.

It wasn't until he saw the little mole on her earlobe that he could not believe that the woman he had been thinking about day and night had really appeared in front of him.

It's just that she seems to be injured, and she looks very serious.

It was only then that Mulian came to her senses, no longer caring about her fear, and stepped forward to help the unconscious woman.

Even if she betrayed him, he still couldn't do nothing about it.

Despite Nan Jun's deliberate suppression, Mu Lian still took a lot of effort to help her into the back room.

He helped him to the broken blanket at the corner of the table, which he had prepared for his son. Sometimes when he was embroidering, he would not see the child, so he put the child on the blanket, and he sat aside.

Mu Lian used the moonlight to touch the oil lamp, but she didn't know that the shrewd eyes behind him followed him like this, full of tenderness.

Is there really such an infatuated man in this world?

Even if Nan Jun is by his side now, she still can't help but want to call him a fool.

She has treated him like that, doesn't he know how to kick her to relieve her anger before saving her life?

Really silly, but cute silly.
