Li Qingling slept past dinner time and did not see her mother again. He asked her father in confusion, where did her mother go?Liu Zhimo calmly replied that his mother was too tired and was still resting.
Xiaoxiao nodded her head, no longer trying to find the root of the problem.
Letting out a breath of relief, Liu Zhimo told Liu Ye to leave some food for Li Qingling to eat after he woke up.
Unexpectedly, Li Qingling slept all the way till the morning, and when he woke up, he covered his stomach and said he was hungry.
Liu Zhimo kissed her forehead, urging her to get up and wash up.
She hugged Liu Zhimo"s neck and kissed him, saying, "Husband is so nice."
Pinching her nose, Liu Zhimo smiled as he walked out of his room and personally went to the kitchen to prepare a bowl of noodles for Li Qingling.
cook got up and was shocked when she saw Liu Zhimo, "Master, you …. How could you... What would you like to eat? Tell your servant that there"s no need... You don"t have to come to the kitchen yourself. " His heart skipped a beat when she saw his master in the kitchen early in the morning.
Liu Zhimo glanced at cook and said, it was Madam that woke up feeling hungry, so I helped her fill up her stomach with a bowl of noodles.
After saying that, he carried the noodles back to his room.
The moment he entered the room, he saw Li Qingling sitting upright on the chair. Seeing him come in, he smiled at him.
His heart softened. He placed the noodles on the table and pushed it in front of her to let her have a taste. How does it taste?
Looking at the noodles that had an extremely fragrant smell, Li Qingling took a deep breath, raised his eyes and said, "It must be delicious."
Laughing uncontrollably, Liu Zhimo reached out and pushed the hair that had landed on her cheeks behind her ears, "I haven"t eaten yet, how do you know it"s delicious?" They would always try to make him happy.
Li Qingling leaned in close to him, and said while grinning. Because what I am eating is not noodles, but your love …
"..."
Liu Zhimo did his best to suppress the raised corner of his mouth, cleared his throat and said, "Hurry up and eat, it"s going to get cold."
Looking at his red ears, Li Qingling chuckled and asked him if he was shy.
"If you"re not hungry, how about we go back and get some sleep?"
Sleep?
In the face of his somewhat deep and serene gaze, Li Qingling hurriedly turned her head away, saying that she was very hungry.
After saying so, he took the chopsticks and stuffed the noodles into his mouth. He was afraid that some man would impulsively push her back onto the bed. Then, she …
Liu Zhimo sat at the side, watching her eat with a gentle expression. It was as if there was nothing more blissful than this.
After she was done eating, she tidied up the tableware and asked her, "Do you want to go back to sleep?"
Li Qingling stood up and stretched, then shook his head and said, I"m full, so I won"t sleep anymore.
She followed Liu Zhimo out of the room and looked around the front yard. After being away for a few years, the fruit trees there had grown into fruits.
After looking at the front yard for a while, she was about to head to the back yard, but as soon as she walked to the back yard, she saw the three Huang Family members and the Wolf King lying in the back yard.
"You look like you"re sleeping comfortably, huh?"
The Wolf King raised his head and glanced at Li Qingling, and then laid back down, closed his eyes, and did not see anything.
Li Qingling was already used to the att.i.tude of the proud and aloof Wolf King. She walked over, rubbed Tiger"s head, and asked if she wanted to go back to Matsuyama to take a look.
Tiger snorted and said that they were about to return to the Matsuyama.
Do you know if the other brats are still in the Matsuyama? Whether or not they were here, they had to go back and take a look.
Hearing Tiger"s words, little ears p.r.i.c.ked up. Was he going to the Matsuyama to meet his brothers and sisters that he had never seen before?
It"s going too.
"If you see them, bring them to me."
Tiger answered. He wanted to ask how long Li Qingling had stayed in Ox-Head Village for?
Li Qingling said that he should be back in the capital after four or five days.
Tiger knew what was going on and nodded, saying that they would be back in Matsuyama after two or three days.
"Alright, be careful."
Ah Huang lightly rubbed against Li Qingling and stood up to call the Little White, wanting to return to the Matsuyama.
Before Little White could stand up, the Wolf King did.
Seeing the Wolf King, Tiger rolled his eyes at it, saying it couldn"t be that he wanted to follow it, right?
The Wolf King humphed twice, saying that it wouldn"t follow it!
The road was so long, who said they would follow it?
Tiger glanced at it, then led Little White out the back door in big strides.
He told Li Qingling that it would go and see its brothers and sisters before running out like a wisp of smoke.
The Wolf King also threw a word to Li Qingling, saying that it would be back in two days after going out to play, then ran towards the direction of Ah Huang and the others.
Seeing this, Li Qingling couldn"t help but laugh, gently closing the back door, then returning back to the front yard.
"Did Tiger not return to Matsuyama?" Seeing Li Qingling coming out from the backyard, Liu Zhimo asked her with a smile.
"I just returned, and said that I would be staying in Matsuyama for two or three days before returning."
Liu Zhimo acknowledged his presence and asked her what her plans were for the past few days.
Li Qingling rolled his eyes as he reached out his hand to Liu Zhimo, asking her if he wanted to accompany her to wander around the Ox-Head Village.
After not coming back for so many years, I wonder how the Ox-Head Village is doing?
"Madam has given me the order, how could I dare disobey?"
Li Qingling raised his hand and said with a smile, "Little Mo Zi, accompany me for a walk."
"..."
Are you addicted to acting?
Liu Zhimo walked out of the courtyard while pinching her fingers together, following the main road of Ox-Head Village, he slowly walked forward.
Looking at the new houses in the Ox-Head Village, Li Qingling said gratifyingly: "Ox-Head Village has changed a lot, you are no longer a poor and backward Ox-Head Village." At that time, the villagers of Ox-Head Village were not even full, let alone getting a new house.
Now, not only did he have enough food and clothes, but he also had the money to build a new house.
After forcefully holding Li Qingling"s hand, Liu Zhimo turned his head to look at her and said, "This is all my wife"s credit."
It could really be said that without Li Qingling, the current Ox-Head Village would not exist.
It was Li Qingling who allowed the villagers of Ox-Head Village to live a prosperous life.
"The villagers were diligent, otherwise, they wouldn"t be able to pull them up." Li Qingling smiled humbly, and did not bring this reputation up, "Seeing that they are living a good life, I am also happy in my heart."
After all, she had lived in this village for so many years, and from the bottom of her heart, she hoped that the villagers would live a good life.
Liu Zhimo changed the topic and smiled, saying that once he retired, he could go back to the Ox-Head Village to retire.
The scenery here was not bad, and it was also the village where he was born and raised.
"Sure …"
Just as she was laughing, she saw a man walking over to her. Upon seeing her and Liu Zhimo, he stopped and hesitantly called out to Xiao Lingjie.
Seeing the man holding the hoe, Li Qingling"s words paused, he … He is Li Qingfu?
The Li Qingfu in her impression was white and fat, not the thin and black person in front of her.
"You are... Li Qingfu? " She could not believe it. The change was too big.
Li Qingfu quickly looked at Li Qingling and Li Qingling, then slightly lowered his head and answered.
"..."
If not for Li Qingfu greeting her, she would never have recognized that the person in front of her was actually Li Qingfu.
It seemed that his life these past few years had not been easy. Otherwise, he wouldn"t have become so dark and thin.
Li Qingling sighed in his heart, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he asked where he was going?
"I... I"ll go to the fields. "
"Oh …" Not knowing what to say, Li Qingling hummed and then left.
Holding the hoe in his hand, Li Qingfu spoke, "Xiao Lingjie, you guys walk slowly, I … I"ll go to the fields first. Grandmother will be waiting. "
"Alright …"
After Li Qingfu left, Li Qingling turned and looked at his back, then sighed in relief and told Liu Zhimo, she really did not expect Li Qingfu to become like this, it was truly out of her expectations.
It was as if he had become a completely different person. It was truly too unexpected.
"I presume your grandparents didn"t pamper him for the past few years, allowing him to shoulder his responsibilities as a descendant of the Li family. That"s why he became skinnier." Liu Zhimo dragged Li Qingling and continued to walk, "This is pretty good, at least he"s no longer a person who only eats and drinks, waiting for death." Although it wasn"t a very rich and luxurious life, it was not cold or hungry either. It was pretty good.
Li Qingling nodded twice. He was really a little curious in his heart, how did Li Qingfu become this thoroughly?
Had something unexpected happened in the past few years?
Her curiosity did not last long, and by noon, when the village woman came to chat with her, she knew the answer.
It turned out that three years ago, when Li Qingfu was in a bad mood and went to gamble, he owed two hundred silver to others and was chased by people to his house to collect debts.
If he still did not pay the silver, he would have to cut off Li Qingfu"s hand.
Regarding this, Old Li was completely disappointed with Li Qingfu. He no longer wanted to bother with him and allowed him to fend for himself.
It was Li Bao Zhu who pulled Li Qingfu to his knees and begged Old Li to save him, and even made him swear to the heavens that from now on, Li Qingfu would not do anything stupid.
Li Qingfu was afraid, afraid that they would cut off both of his hands, and immediately swore to the heavens that he would change his plans, and that he would not act in such a manner.
Being begged like this by the siblings, Old Li"s heart softened. He pulled Li Qingfu"s family to borrow money, and wrote down the IOU for Li Qingfu to sign and pledge, so that he could repay the money.
When the villagers saw that Li Qingfu really wanted to repent, they lent him some silver and told him to take it to repay his gambling debts.
From then on, Li Qingfu became more honest, working steadily at home, serving the fields with his heart.
That"s why he was dark and thin.
"He... Not married yet? "
"Not yet, but I"ve been looking at girls lately. I wonder if it"ll work?" The village woman smiled and said, "But Baozhu married into the neighboring village a year ago."
Li Baozhu married?
Li Qingling was shocked by the news again, she did not receive any more news.
"Grandfather also didn"t tell me. I didn"t know that the Sister Jewel was already married, and I didn"t give her a present." She sighed slightly, probably because Old Li thought that their relationship was not good and was too embarra.s.sed to tell her.
The village woman looked at Li Qingling and smiled as she comforted her.
They understood very clearly in their hearts, because Old Li didn"t have the face to tell him, so …
