C55 (2/2)
But now, he only wanted to bring Qingli back.
A young life requires struggle. Such a comfortable environment is only suitable for the occasional relaxation of the mood and pension.
A life of too much comfort only made people lose their will to fight and become idle. However, people can't leave such a comfortable and comfortable, the fishing, farming and reading, the sunrise and sunset, this is a lifetime of pursuit of many people.
By the time the taxi stopped at the farmhouse, it was almost dusk. Mu Wenshu paid and got off the car, then walked along the stone road. Upon entering, he saw a sixty year old or so old lady in the hall, who was extremely happy.
The simple and unadorned door was left wide open. The little old lady sat on a red lacquered wooden stool beside the tea table, slowly eating a pear moistened with sugar.
Mu Wenshu dragged the driver's luggage from the trunk of the carriage and leisurely walked to the center of the courtyard. The old lady glanced at Mu Wenshu, and immediately stood up to welcome him, forcing him to call out Wu Nong's soft words with a smile.
Mu Wenshu smiled and greeted her. As he said that, he stretched out his body to take a peek inside the courtyard, but he did not see Qingli.
Unfortunately, most of the old lady's dialects were incomprehensible to Mu Wenshu. knew that the male owner of the house had gone to work in the town, while the female owner had gone to the local fisherman to get some fresh fish, shrimp and water to entertain the guests. Qingli reckoned that she would probably go with the female owner and would probably be back soon.
Mu Wenshu nodded, and instructed the old lady who was checking in: ”Please help me open a room next to Qingli's!”
The old lady was puzzled: ”Aren't you Qingli's husband? Not sharing a room with her? She's booked a family suite. ”
Mu Wenshu said: ”Qingli is light asleep and pregnant, I'm afraid that I would wake her up by turning over at night.”
The old lady happily agreed.
Although his master was not at home, the old lady still helped him settle his luggage. She brought Mu Wenshu to look at the rooms upstairs and even brought him to look around the house. Mu Wenshu followed the old lady around and talked about local customs and traditions. Finally, he sat down at the reception desk in the main hall.
The old granny pressed against the wooden bench that Mu Wenshu was sitting on, and then rushed in and out, enthusiastically bringing out her family's pears, as well as her fragrant black tea to welcome Mu Wenshu.
The attentive old lady had already peeled off the green pear peel that was thick and hard for Mu Wenshu. And the reddish-brown cold tea water sweet moisturizing throat, also very thirsty.
Mu Wenshu laughed and drank a mouthful, then looked outside at the sky. He chatted with the old lady while waiting for Lu Qingli to return.
Usually, when she was free, Qingli would go out with his mistress to take a walk. She heard that it was advantageous for the pregnant women to take a walk around. So when she received Mu Wenshu's call today, she was outside with her mistress.
”Why are you here?”
”If you leave now, I'll follow you to Shanghai. I only found out yesterday that you arrived here.”
Lu Qingli's heart was very complicated, but hearing Mu Wenshu's voice, she was especially happy and nervous. On one hand, she didn't want Mu Wenshu to find him. On the other hand, she urgently wanted to see.
When Lu Qingli returned with her mistress, she saw that Mu Wenshu and the old lady were happily chatting, and even if Wu Nong could not communicate through soft language, the two of them were still chatting happily, there seemed to be no obstacles in their communication.
Mu Wenshu raised his head and saw Lu Qingli supporting herself with his waist as she followed his mistress into the courtyard. He hurriedly said something to the old lady before walking down the stairs, wanting to walk over to Lu Qingli's side. Lu Qingli froze for a moment, then stood outside the door and slowly entered the room. Mu Wenshu walked forward a few steps, turned his body around, placed his hand on Lu Qingli's waist, and carefully pushed Lu Qingli to the bench outside the hall in the courtyard. The old lady walked out of the living room early and took the basket from her mistress.
The Mistress saw Mu Wenshu's every move and could not help but ask, ”You came?”
Mu Wenshu nodded, ”Did sister-in-law remember? Thank you for leaving me a room. I came alone, it's enough to stay in the standard room. ”
The hostess changed her slippers. ”Your girlfriend isn't with you? Didn't you come to register with us yesterday and say that you want to play with your girlfriend? ”
Mu Wenshu replied with a smile: ”My girlfriend is so close, do you still need me to bring her over?”
Lu Qingli raised her head to explain, but when she saw the mistress's teasing expression and then saw Mu Wenshu's gentle gaze, she couldn't help but lower her head and sit down quietly on the chair. She held her stomach in her hands and sat at the end of the bench, not knowing how to start a conversation.
She never thought that after changing her number and driving here, she would still be able to break all contact with the outside world. Yet, Mu Wenshu still managed to find her.
Mu Wenshu lowered his head and asked her if she should go upstairs to sleep.
Lu Qingli raised her head and looked at Mu Wenshu, and said: ”I'm fine, but I want to rest after walking for a while. I'll have to help the Lady Boss pack up her dinner later. Don't worry about me, hurry up and go. ”
Mu Wenshu laughed: I don't have anything to do either, I'm just accompanying the old lady and chatting in the guest hall. Why don't I help you go upstairs to rest?
Lu Qingli shook his head, and asked: ”I'm fine, didn't you just come? Have you packed? ”Hurry up and tidy up, we still have to stay here for a few more days.”
Mu Wenshu nodded. He reached out his hand to gently remove a dried up leaf from Lu Qingli's shoulder before saying with a smile: ”Then I'll go upstairs to clean up first. Remember to drink more water and sit down to rest. ”
Lu Qingli nodded and watched him climb the stairs. A trace of a helpless smile appeared on her lips.
The mistress looked at Mu Wenshu, who was upstairs, and smiled. ”Your husband is not bad.” The Mistress usually did not ask Qingli why she had come here alone with a big stomach.
