My wife is not a demon

He is a servant of Zhang Awei's family.

"Captain Chen?"

Seeing that it was Chen Mu who knocked on the door, the old woman was taken aback and said, "The young master has already gone to the county government office, and he just left not long ago."

"Oh, I'm here to find my aunt. I want to ask her something. Is it convenient now?"

"The lady is helping the young lady with her homework, please go in."

The old woman turned sideways.

Although the courtyard was dilapidated, it was tidy.

There are many flowers and plants on the side of the outer courtyard.

There were some embroidery samples in the corner, and Meng Yanqing relied on them to barely maintain the family's expenses on weekdays.

Meng Yanqing used to be a well-known pretty lady in all towns and villages.

At the age of 16, she married a spice merchant in Qingyu County. Since then, she has delicacies from mountains and seas, dressed in gold and silver, and lived a luxurious life.

It's a pity that the good times have not passed for a few years, and the businessman has become infected with gambling.

Not only did the family lose everything, but they also owed a whole lot of debt, and even sold the ancestral house.

In the past, those relatives and friends were all alienated.

Knowing that he was ashamed of his wife and children, he left behind a dilapidated house, so he went to the cliff alone and took a leap of faith.

From then on, Meng Yanqing and her ten-year-old son depended on each other for life.

She was still pregnant at the time.

Later, a daughter was born, and life was even more difficult. Fortunately, there was an old servant who never left to take care of them.

Entering the inner hall, Chen Mu saw Meng Yanqing scolding a little girl with a pretty face while holding a ruler.

"Auntie, I saw you beating Xiao Xuan'er as soon as I came in."

Chen Mu laughed.

Seeing that it was Chen Mu, Meng Yanqing was a little surprised: "Catcher Chen is here to find Xiaowei? He has already gone to the county government."

"No, I'm here to see you, Auntie."

Chen Mu walked up to the little girl, handed her the candied chestnuts he just bought, and said with a smile, "I mainly want to ask you something about it."

The little girl's name is Zhang Jinxuan, and she has just turned nine years old.

It looks quite cute.

I don't know why I gave my daughter a nice name, but gave my son such a frustrating name.

Looking at the candied chestnuts in front of her, the little girl swallowed, but she didn't dare to reach out to take them. She looked at her mother with pure jewel-like eyes.

It can be seen that the little girl's tutoring is extremely strict on weekdays.

Seeing this, Chen Mu also said helplessly: "No way, we are so familiar with each other, why are you still being polite to your elder brother Mu?"

"Take it."

Looking at her daughter's eager eyes, Meng Yanqing said softly.

With her mother's consent, Xiao Xuan'er, who was crying after being reprimanded just now, burst into a smile, and hurriedly hugged Tang Lizi in her arms.

He said sweetly to Chen Mu, "Thank you, Brother Mu."

"You're welcome."

Chen Mu rubbed her little head, and wiped off the tear stains on the other party's face.

Meng Yanqing put down the ruler in his hand, suddenly remembered something, looked at the clothes on his body, blushed and said, "Chen Butou, please sit down for a while, I'll go change clothes—Mother Zhang, serve Chen Butou some tea." .”

After finishing speaking, he hurried back to the back room.

what's the situation?

Am I missing out on any benefits?

Chen Mu scratched his head, a little confused, only blamed that he had focused on Xiao Xuan'er just now, ignoring the beautiful woman.

Mistake!

Mama Zhang served the tea, then quietly withdrew.

While drinking tea, Chen Mu waited for Meng Yanqing to come out.

I don't know what kind of clothes the other party is changing, and the tea didn't come out even after the water bottomed out. No wonder the four-browed Lu Xiaofeng once said——

If a man can live 60 years, at least [-] years are wasted.In these ten years, at least five years are waiting for women to change clothes, and another five years are waiting for women to undress.

Seniors honestly do not deceive me.

Waiting to be bored, Chen Mu went to Xiao Xuan'er's side.

The little girl was eating candied chestnuts while looking at the books on the table, and beside her was a copybook with wet ink.

"Are you practicing calligraphy?" Chen Mu asked.

In the Yan Dynasty, as a girl, she could study normally.

Not only is the tuition fee discounted, but you can also take part in the imperial examination to change your destiny. There was even a female number one scholar in the Yan Dynasty more than ten years ago.

Become the idol of many women.

At present, the Qin Academy in Qingyu County has several female students who have entered the Imperial College for further studies, which can be described as a sight.

"It's the homework assigned by the master."

Xiao Xuan'er said crisply. "Sir asked us to write a poem on any poultry. But I couldn't write it, so my mother..."

The little girl's voice gradually sank.

Thinking that Chen Mu's stepmother would definitely reprimand her after leaving, the candied chestnuts in her hand suddenly became unsavory.

Good guy, I'm only young enough to write poetry.

Chen Mu was quite speechless.
