When she opened her eyes, she saw that it was still dark outside and Lu Yi was getting dressed with his back to her.
She sat up, put on her shoes and got out of bed.
"It's still early, you can sleep a little longer." Lu Yi held her hand.
"You go out early and come back late now. You eat out three times a day. Look how thin your face has become. I made soup yesterday and made steamed buns. Now I can heat them up and you can eat them. You can eat them again.
Walk."
Lu Yi hugged her tightly and held her waist tightly: "I am truly the luckiest man in the world to have such a wife."
"So you have to be nicer to me." Mu Siyu said, "Otherwise I will run away with someone else."
"No, I won't let anyone take you away." Lu Yi kissed her lips.
Mu Siyu did not linger with him and pushed him away: "Aren't you in a hurry?"
"Madam, do you dislike me?" Lu Yi sighed sadly.
"I don't want to delay your affairs." Mu Siyu stood up on her tiptoes and kissed Lu Yi on the lips: "The new official will take office three times, so you have to be careful these days and don't let your guard down."
Lu Zhiqian was ready to go out to buy steamed buns and porridge. When he learned that he would eat at home today, he was so happy that he ate ten big meat buns in one go.
Mu Siyu was surprised: "It seems I will have to do more next time."
"Madam, you don't know how much we have missed your craftsmanship during this time." Lu Zhiqian lamented: "The food outside is so expensive, but it is not half as delicious as what Madam cooks."
"When you are free, I will cook a table of delicious dishes to replenish your health," Mu Siyu said.
Lu Yi stood up and urged Lu Zhiqian: "Are you ready? Let's go!"
Lu Zhiqian bit the bun and followed Lu Yi.
Mu Siyu stood under the eaves and watched Lu Yi's figure disappear into the darkness.
"Hey..." A sigh came from the next room.
That's Tong's room.
Mu Siyu could even hear her tossing and turning.
Mu Siyu suddenly thought that Tong was just in his prime, so he couldn't live alone like this forever, right?
Although she has children, she has her own home. Mu Zhenghan is busy studying now, and will have her own small family in the future. She is the only one who is alone. Instead of doing this, it is better to find a man for her to stay with her now.
An hour later, everyone got up and gathered together to have breakfast.
Mu Siyu expressed her thoughts.
"Ahem..." Mrs. Tong coughed after hearing Mu Siyu's words.
Doctor Zhu looked at Mrs. Tong nervously.
Mu Zhenghan's face was full of surprise: "Sister, do you want mother to..."
"Mom is still young and should have her own happiness." Mu Siyu said, "Brother Han, what do you think?"
Mu Zhenghan looked at Tong and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Of course he hopes that his mother will be happy, but in her situation, it may not be easy to find a man who treats her well.
At her age, all normal men are married, and those who don't have a wife are either widowers or incompetent bachelors. Neither widowers nor bachelors are good matches.
Of course, some widowers are quite good. But most of these people have children. If the mother marries and has a second wife, she will have to serve other people's children. Isn't this looking for sin? It's better to be comfortable now.
"I don't want to." Mrs. Tong said with a blushing face: "Girl Yu, don't mess around. If you think it's inconvenient for Mom to be here, Mom..."
"Mom, you know that I don't mean it, why do you say such things?" Mu Siyu took her hand: "I think you are at a great disadvantage by marrying Mu Dashan. You have never been loved by a man for a day in your life.
day."
"That's your father." Tong blamed. "Even if there is nothing between us, he is still your father, and you can't call him that name."
"Okay, I respect him." Mu Siyu continued to persuade. "I want you to know that not every man is like him. You are so good, you should find a man who knows both coldness and warmth."
Doctor Zhu looked at Mrs. Tong with burning eyes.
Mrs. Tong was so scared to look up at him.
Why didn't she know what he meant?
He wanted to take this opportunity to show his affection to several children, but...
She didn't dare.
"Ms. Shaoyu, we... ah..." Seeing that Mrs. Tong didn't speak, Dr. Zhu gritted his teeth and was about to confess. However, his feet hurt and Ms. Tong interrupted him.
This step was not light, which showed how anxious she was.
Mrs. Tong felt guilty and looked at Dr. Zhu pleadingly.
Doctor Zhu's face darkened, he stood up and said, "I still have something to do, so I'm going back to the countryside first. If you have something to do, come see me!"
"Why is it so sudden?" Mu Siyu asked, "Didn't you agree to stay for a few more days?"
"I have something to do at the moment, so I'm going back first." Dr. Zhu said, picked up the basket he brought and went out.
Lu Shaoyu looked at Mrs. Tong, who was blushing, and then looked in the direction of Dr. Zhu.
Mu Siyu felt strange, but she didn't see anything strange.
"Mom, my uncle and I are going to Yangliu City." Lu Shaoyu interrupted her thoughts.
"What are you doing in Yangliu City?" Mu Siyu asked.
"The master said that there is an academy in Yangliu City, and the students there are talented, and all of them are candidates for the imperial examination. He is friends with the mountain chief there, and has made an agreement with him to select ten people from our academy to go to them for two classes.
Months of study can be regarded as learning each other's strengths, and by the way, I can see their library there. My master will also go, so we just need to bring enough expenses."
"That's a big event. I have to prepare it for you." Mu Siyu said, "The Chinese New Year will be in two months. Can you come back to celebrate the New Year?"
"It only takes three days to drive from here to Yangliu City. You can definitely come back." Lu Shaoyu said.
"Okay. But the weather has turned cold, so I have to prepare two more winter coats for you. Going out is inconvenient, and you have to bring more money." Mu Siyu counted the things they needed.
"Sister, take your time, Master said we have five days to prepare." Mu Zhenghan said, "Then let's go to the private school first."
Lu Zhiyun put down her chopsticks: "Mom, I'm going out to play too."
Mu Siyu said: "Why do you always go out to play recently? Have you made new friends?"
It was originally just a casual question, but after a long while there was no response. When I looked up, I saw that Lu Zhiyun had already run away.
"Xiao Yun'er always runs out after eating recently. Should we go and see what friends she has made?" Tong said: "She is still so young. If she makes bad friends, others will just say a few words to her.
If you make a quick lunch, you will suffer a loss."
"Now that she has gone far away, we have no way to ask further questions. She will come back for lunch at noon, and we will ask again when she comes back." Mu Siyu said, "Mom, you can think about what I just said."
"I don't have a straight face." Tong glared at her: "I'm fine as I am now, don't do any more nonsense."
