The next day, Yan Mu had two dark circles under his eyes, yawning and sighing.

"Am I asking for trouble?"

Liu Yunxiang glared at him, "What are you doing up so early?"

"The city gate is in charge."

"Um."

"I'll be back for lunch at noon."

"There is no food for you."

Yan Mu hugged her and kissed her, "Wait until I pay you my salary."

"Three melons and two dates."

"Boss Liu, I know you are rich, and I will rely on you to support me from now on."

Liu Yunxiang pushed him, "I might as well raise a dog."

"Woof woof!"

Liu Yunxiang burst into laughter and said, "Get out of here."

After Yan Mu left, Jinyan came in to help Liu Yunxiang freshen up.

"Girl, you are in a good mood today."

"Really?" She didn't think so.

"I keep laughing." Jin Yan lay on the bed and supported Liu Yunxiang from behind, "Is it because of Mr. Yan?"

Liu Yunxiang glared at Jin Yan and said, "Nonsense."

Jinyan stuck out her tongue, helped Liu Yunxiang out of bed, and stretched his muscles in the room.

"Has the snow stopped?"

"It's stopped, but it rained so hard last night. When I went out this morning, I couldn't even touch the top of my shoe when I stepped on it."

"The business of the charcoal shop and leather goods shop should get busy."

"No, the girl really has magical powers and can make money in any business."

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "You do have some magical powers."

It was the first snow of the year, and Liu Yunxiang wanted to go outside for a walk. Jin Yan disagreed, saying it was too cold, and if he caught the wind and cold, it would be fatal for Liu Yunxiang.

"Good girl, if you don't let me take a look at this snow scene, I'll have to wait for the rest of my life."

When Jin Yan heard this, his eyes turned red again, "Girl, you are not fine now, maybe you will get over it when the time comes."

Liu Yunxiang patted Jin Yan's hand and said, "I'm gritting my teeth, but I still want to take a look outside."

Jin Yan wiped her tears and couldn't bear to refuse. She carefully put Liu Yunxiang into the mink velvet cloak sent by Zhang Qi and put on thick cotton boots. She then stuffed a hand stove into her hand and then helped her out.

The sky has cleared up and is as clear as a mirror.

In the quadrangle, the ground was covered with snow, and the sunlight reflected thousands of tiny rays of light, which were so bright that people could not open their eyes.

On the walls and on the roof, there is bright color everywhere.

A gust of wind blew by, blowing off the bits of fine snow on the edge of the tiles, falling with a rustle and flying out of the wall with the wind.

Zi Jin was sweeping with a broom, sweeping all the way out the courtyard.

"Where did you place Aunt Yan?" Liu Yunxiang asked.

Jin Yan pointed to the east wing and said, "Last night, Aunt Zhang even burned a fire bed for her."

Liu Yunxiang nodded, "She is lonely and helpless. Since she is willing to follow us, we can take good care of her."

"This slave knows."

At this time, there was first a cry of children outside, and then a loud noise, which seemed to be a man and a woman.

The child was crying so hard that it sounded very distressing.

"Let's go out and take a look."

When I came to the entrance of the courtyard, I saw that the neighbor's house to the east was making a fuss. In the ice and snow, a man wearing a green cloth jacket was leading a bundle to leave. A woman wearing a purple cotton jacket with a swollen belly was pulling him behind. At the door.

There was also a crying girl, who looked like three or four years old, wearing a pink cotton-padded jacket and having her hair braided.

The man was tall and strong, with a stubble on his chin. He pulled his baggage and shouted at the woman: "I work hard at the ferry to unload the goods every day. When I get home, my child cries and you make a fuss too. It's really annoying.

I won’t quarrel with you, I just want to go out and hide and be clean!”

The woman shouted: "I know you work hard. Even though you are heavy and heavy, I haven't asked you to wash clothes or cook. I just ask you to go home early every day and at least stay with us mother and daughter. It's better for you. You can go after work.

Go to Widow Liu, help her carry water and make tofu, what do you think, do you have the heart?"

As the woman spoke, she broke down and burst into tears. Because her body was too heavy to squat down, she could only hold on to the wall.

Men still don't feel sorry for women when they are like this.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I just felt sorry for the man when she died, so I just helped her."

"My man is not dead, but I am more pitiful than her!"

"You're still cursing me to death, you vicious woman!"

"Anyway, I don't allow you to leave home. I'm about to give birth and it's a time when I need someone. Do you have any intention of leaving us behind?"

The two of them were still pulling at each other, when Yan Mu came in from the alley entrance wearing a fur cloak.

Behind him, there is thousands of miles of snow. The tall pine trees at the entrance of the alley are like jade trees and silver flowers at this moment, and he seems to be walking from a stunning snow scene. His face is so beautiful and shining, it is the most eye-catching thing in the world.

color.

When he raised his eyes and saw her at the door, he smiled, and the painting came alive.

When he passed by, the woman was so anxious that she shouted to him: "Master, please help me. The father of the child doesn't want us and my mother anymore. If he leaves, we won't be able to survive."

Yan Mu was stunned for a moment, looked at the pregnant woman, and then at the girl at the door, then shouted at the man: "It is a serious crime to abandon a wife and child. Do you want to go to jail?"

The man was really frightened when he saw Yan Mu wearing the clothes of a city gate guard, "I didn't abandon my wife and son, it was just a normal quarrel."

"The quarrel is like this? Didn't you see your daughter crying? Didn't you see your wife was working hard with her big belly?"

"Yes, I will take her home right now."

The man was afraid of Yan Mu and hurriedly helped the crying woman back.

The girl was still crying, and her parents had no time to care about her for the time being. Yan Mu stood blankly for a while, then stepped forward and wanted to coax the girl, but he was inexperienced and seemed a bit clumsy.

He touched his nose, remembered something, took out a pack of beef jerky from his cloak, took out one and waved it in front of the girl's eyes.

The girl immediately forgot to cry when she saw it. She just kept crying and burping, but it didn't stop her saliva from flowing out.

"Want to eat?" Yan Mu saw how cute the little girl was, and his voice became softer unconsciously.

The girl cried until her eyes were red, her nose was red, and her face was red. She nodded heavily, "I think."

"Call uncle."

"Uncle." The sound of milk came out, and Yan Mu was so tight that he couldn't help but stretched out his hand to rub the girl's face, "Nuo, here you go."

Yan Mu gave half to the girl and left half. He coaxed her to go home, then walked to Liu Yunxiang, hugged her into his arms, and gave her the remaining meat.

"Actually, it would be good to have a daughter."

Liu Yunxiang pushed him and said, "Find someone else to give birth."

During lunch, there was a beggar on the table.

"Brother and sister, your food is delicious. I will come here often in the future!"

Liu Yunxiang looked at Yan Mu and then at the beggar. The two of them were eating in big gulps and didn't look out of place at all.

"So what's the relationship between you two?"

Yan Mu replied: "He is my foster father's other son."

Liu Yunxiang twitched the corner of his mouth, "Is the godson of the Governor of Dongchang such a bad person?"

The beggar took a mouthful of rice and said, "I'm just pretending, do you understand?"

"Then you act like a beggar, as if you haven't eaten in three days."

The beggar choked for a moment, then laughed: "It's not that bad. I was lucky this morning and snatched half a piece of steamed bun from the dog."

Liu Yunxiang: "..."

Seeing that Liu Yunxiang was at a disadvantage, Yan Mu couldn't help laughing.
