This temporary residence is much better than the dilapidated yard before. After Xiang Du entered the door, the bunch of children were all inside the room, and he squeezed out a little smile.
As the director of the orphanage, Mu Mu covered each child with a quilt and urged a few disobedient ones to go to bed as soon as possible.
When Xiang Du pushed open the door, the children's eyes lit up instantly, and all Mu Mu's efforts were declared invalid.
Those pairs of longing eyes are waiting for the bedtime story.
Xiang Du said reluctantly: "No, it's too late today."
The children were collectively depressed, as if they had left homework.
"Xiao Xiang!" Mu Mu pinched her waist and glared, "Come and comfort that person, I'm depressed."
Xiang Du noticed the maid and was secretly sad at the window. Thinking of Mr. Bu's character, Xiang Du asked anxiously after a while.
"What happened?"
But there was no answer, and he continued to be sad.
Xiang Du could only ask Mu Mu with his eyes, who was busy coaxing the children to sleep, and replied impatiently: "I'm hit, you ask yourself."
Xiang Duxin thought, I've asked.
But he also put the scriptures on it, using the third expression that she would never do except for being plain and smiling. He looked at Xiang Du pitifully, and his voice was aggrieved: "I tell stories, they don't like to listen to them."
It was the first time Xiang Du saw this, Ke Yi showed this expression, which was so charming that he became dull for a moment.
What happened in the canal once again appeared in his mind. He warned himself to be calm, that this is a matter of life and should not be careless.
He asked Ke Yi: "Books? Preach the ministry?"
But he nodded, almost crying.
Xiang Du scratched his head awkwardly and could only explain: "They can't accept such high-level things, and they need to do it little by little. This matter is unhurried."
"I didn't mean that, I just felt... I had never felt before."
"Can you describe it?"
"I used to be like this. I was in the church and I wouldn't have any emotions even if someone fell asleep listening to it. But I don't know what's going on today, it's just a very uncomfortable thing."
"That's because you love these children very much. If you don't love them, you won't feel frustrated, that is..."
Xiang Du was taught with sincerity. Mu Mu walked over a few steps and slapped Xiang Du on the head, accusing him very bluntly: "Will you comfort people? Do you believers say this? If you don't want to comfort me, just stay there."
But she also looked embarrassed and stood up and said goodbye: "My heart is not very calm, and I need to go back and calm down."
After saying that, he also bowed and left.
Mu Mu kicked Xiang Du again in anger: "Go out and see him off."
Xiang Du was kicked and beaten and had no temper at all, so he honestly sent him out.
When we parted, Xiang Du hesitated for a long time before saying, "A person will come to our side tomorrow."
"Who is it?"
"A very important person... forget it, I will know tomorrow. It's quite late. Do you need me to send you?"
"No need, the night will be more peaceful, I want to think alone."
"Okay, good night."
"Good night."
After seeing off Ke Yi, Xiang Du slowly returned to the house. Mu Mu was covering the children again. When she heard someone coming in from the house, she blamed him again: "You are back by yourself? How can you come back by yourself? Do you know how dangerous it is to walk alone by someone like her? Do you often do this?"
Xiang Du honestly replied: "It has always been like this, and there must be someone who stays to take care of the children."
"Elmu Head, don't I have me now?"
Mu Mu felt a little tired. She looked at the bed that was not neat and had some free time. She sighed at Xiang Du and asked, "Tell me, what happened? Something was wrong today."
"It's nothing, I'm just tired." Xiang Du avoided Mu Mu's questioning, "I'm just tired."
Mu Mu walked over and tiptoed to grab Xiang Du's ear: "I'm still lying. I can see through you at a glance. On my side, you are all the same, all of them are a bunch of children."
Xiang Du was so painful that he avoided it, rubbed his ears and said, "You are not a few years older than me."
"That's big too."
"It's really okay."
"You have no money?"
Mu Mu kept asking questions, just like interrogating a prisoner, he repeatedly asked some questions. In the end, what Xiang Du said was very different from what he had before.
Xiang Du was so helpless that he could only confess, but he also lied and did not talk about the past in prison.
Because the content is heavy, he chose to speak it out in the yard.
After hearing the whole story, Mu Mu grabbed Xiang Du's ear again and said with a smile: "What am I doing? That's all a matter? What are you afraid of for him?"
Xiang Durenyou's ear was grabbed and he stopped resisting. He expressed his feelings: "That person may have said a lot of bad things, but he will not die, right? Is it really necessary to threaten me with an innocent life? It is too dangerous for someone to do such a thing."
Mu Mu took the initiative to let go of his hand and said with a wicked smile: "Look at your fake public service for personal gain. Of course, you may really feel unfair. Indeed, this matter is not fair. But, you have fallen into it, and you are more thinking about the lady who is the maid, right?"
"No, I'm really upset for that innocent person."
"The dead duck's mouth is so hard, you can't deceive yourself."
Xiang Du thought about it carefully and found that 80% of his thoughts were like this. He was a little ashamed and knew that his mentality was not correct and was a sin.
Mu Mu sighed and went to soothe the older child's heart: "You can't save that person, don't think about it. Do I need to tell the old man about this? There is an old man here tomorrow, and no one dares to do something special."
"Sister, don't bother the old lady like this."
"That's right. Judging from her father's opinion, he should know his daughter's situation quite well, so he naturally knows who is covering her here. Besides, that guy loves his daughter so much, and he won't do anything randomly. He just couldn't imagine how such a good daughter has such a father? Do you know what I feel now?"
"have no idea."
"It's great." Mu Mu smiled, "She has an incomplete side. If this gossip is revealed, many people in the King's Capital will be in a mess."
"You still don't..."
"Of course I won't say it out loud. OK, OK, it's time for you to stay at night today, I'll go to rest."
After watching Mu Mu go up to the second floor, Xiang Du waited alone in front of the door for a while, then entered the room and turned off the lights and lay on the bed.
The sound of the children's breathing evenly is in my ears, but what is lingering in my mind is Ke Yi's pitiful and moving expression.
At night, except for the black covered, the only remaining lights were street lights and the aristocratic homes.
The Baymond's house was brightly lit, and the servants had already come home from get off work, leaving Mr. Fei to serve.
Mr. Fei calmly brought the tea to him, put one cup in front of his master and one cup in front of Yu Lian.
Baymond loves chatting with people in the study. The books on the whole wall and books with bookmarks on the table can tell everyone about their own cultivation.
Of course, a large part of these books is related to religion, and the other part is work logs and various documents. Only the smallest part is humanities and history.
Mr. Fei pushed open the door of the study and left. The laughter from the ladies came in outside the door.
Becky is leading his mother and maid Yu Na to disassemble the gifts.
Bella has been living in that family for the past few days, so she is not at home, which just avoids some embarrassing scenes.
Baymond first raised the topic: "Mr. Yu Lian, I haven't seen you for a while. Things must be very busy recently, right?"
"We have been working hard to reconcile the conflicts, and you know this. Today, I met another official from Taihui."
"How is the talk?"
"Not very good." Yu Lian shook his head slightly, "Even if we have made enough concessions, they are still unmoved unless we are willing to give up all the benefits of Dale."
“This is impossible.”
"Of course it's impossible. They also know that we can't agree, so they put forward such conditions."
"It seems that there is no other way except war."
"Maybe."
"Since that's the case, we can only let our soldiers teach them a lesson. Although we don't expect the war to happen, since there is no other choice, let's fight to the end. I have heard a lot of news, and some people predict that we can achieve a comprehensive victory in three months."
"Maybe."
"In three months, when they negotiate with these arrogant Taihui people, their expressions must be very wonderful."
Baymond became more and more excited as he spoke, as if they had won.
Yu Lian was silent for a while, and listened to Baymond's endless talk, and only then did a sentence appear in the end.
