Wife is an enemy general

001.

The next morning, Li Mu woke up refreshed.

After exercising in the yard for a while, Li Mu had a simple breakfast, and took advantage of the morning light to run into the woods with his fishing net.

He is very familiar with the vicinity of this mountain. The duck ran into the woods last night. It was not easy to catch it at night. Of course he would catch it back during the day.

But I don't know where the duck went. Li Mu searched the entire top of the mountain from the beginning to the end, but couldn't find the duck.

At noon, Li Mu returned home sweating profusely.

When eating at noon, they learned that Li Mu hadn't found the duck in the mountain. Everyone was a little surprised. Some people guessed that the duck must have been secretly caught by someone in the mountain and hid it.

But there is no evidence, and everyone is just guessing.

There were no ducks to be found, but the day went on as usual.

Li Mu was delayed all morning, and after lunch, he went down to the duck cage to check the situation.

Now those ducks, Li Mu, are all handed over to Guan Yu to take care of them. After these few months, he has basically gotten started.Li Mu is no longer like before, he has been busy taking care of the ducks every day, and only visits occasionally when he is free.

At the foot of the mountain, Li Mu stood outside the duck cage, watching the group of ducks scrambling for food.

The other shelducks have been released long ago, and the only ones that are still around here are the newly hatched white-haired ducks.

Except for the big ducks that were left behind for breeding at the beginning, there were hundreds of ducks that were newly hatched, which sounds like a lot, but when these ducks were all surrounded together, it looked like only small a bunch of.

In addition, these ducks are not very tall, and they still look like half-sized ducks after so long, and they look even smaller.

Guan Yu took care of these ducks very seriously, and they were fed more food than the other ducks every day, and they would be fed an extra meal in the middle of the afternoon.

Seeing Li Mu coming, Guan Yu pulled Li Mu and talked about the duck cage.

The duck cages in this mountain should be strengthened again.

The duck cages in this mountain were originally made by Li Mu and Uncle Hong a few years ago. Although they were rebuilt later, most of them still use the original duck cages.

It has been more than three years now, and these bamboo fences have become very brittle after being exposed to wind and rain for several years, and some places will be brittle if they cannot withstand any force.

About half a month ago, there were several fewer ducks in the duck cage.

The long-term workers in the mountain found that the number of ducks was wrong when they locked up the ducks at night. They searched around the mountain, but they couldn't find them.

On the second day, there was a little less, and then on the afternoon of the third day, when it was dawn, they found the wreckage that had been eaten by weasels or wolves, leaving only duck feathers.

Under such circumstances, the duck cage naturally had to be reprocessed. Guan Yu wanted to tell Li Mu about this matter before, but Li Mu had been busy with the fruit trees in the mountain and his new house at that time. , so there has been nothing empty.

Now that Li Mu was free, Guan Yu put this matter on the agenda.

"A white-feathered duck ran out in the morning. As soon as I opened the door, the duck rushed in. I don't know how it got out yesterday." Guan Yu said.

"White-feathered duck?" Li Mu became energetic when he heard it.

"It's still a male duck, and I don't know where it got out of. I just asked them to check the duck cages in this mountain to see if there is another hole in it." Guan Yu felt a little headache.

The ducks that Li Mu raises now are counted in thousands, and at least he raised thousands of ducks.

The range of the duck cage is naturally very large. It takes a long time to check the entire duck cage and bamboo fence next to each other, and it is a very energy-consuming thing.

"You don't need to look for it, it didn't come out from inside." Li Mu gritted his teeth.

He said that he searched on this mountain for a long time but couldn't find it, the emotional duck actually learned to be smart by himself, and ran to the duck cage!

It is estimated that the duck should have heard the calls of other ducks down the mountain, so it followed the sound to find it.

"What?" Guan Yu was delighted to hear Li Mu say this, when he saw Li Mu gritted his teeth and stared sullenly at the big duck eating inside.

"It's okay, you can go and do your own work!" After speaking, Li Mu hurried to the utility room next to the duck cage, and found the net that he had placed under the mountain.

After waving the net in his hands, he rolled up his sleeves and entered the duck cage aggressively, holding the fishing net and following the group of white ducks from a distance, looking treacherously waiting for an opportunity.

Seeing Li Mu like this, Guan Yu shook his head helplessly, ignored him, and went to the side to do his own business.

The longer we get along with Li Mu, the more we can see that although Li Mu always has a serious and serious look on his face, in fact his personality is quite easy-going, sometimes even a little naive.

Because of his understanding, when he returned to the duck cage again, he was not surprised at all when he saw Li Mu in the duck cage and the duck flying Li Mu dancing the fixed scene of the World War.

The other long-term workers who had been with Li Mu for a longer time showed even more indifference.

They have long been accustomed to seeing their boss in a duck cage, being chased by ducks after a while...

"Is the wild food ready for tomorrow?" Guan Yu asked the people around him, ignoring the rattling sound from the pressure cage behind him.

Because the ducks had to be fed once in the morning before they were let out, it would be too late to prepare duck food temporarily, so they prepared it one evening in advance, and poured it in for feeding when the door opened the next morning.

Several long-term workers also ignored the battle in the duck cage, and roughly explained what they were doing.

Raising ducks looks simple, but in fact there are many things to do.

In addition to taking care of the duck food, the duck cage that the duck lives in must also be cleaned regularly, otherwise the duck will poop in it at night, and it will stink to death if it lives there again the next day, especially in summer , Ducks are also prone to diseases.

So they have to replace the dry straw in the duck cage with fresh ones every once in a while.

In the early days, Li Mu didn't raise many ducks, and the straw he used was collected by the farmers in his own mountains.This thing is useless, a few copper coins can collect a lot of this thing back.

Now that there are too many ducks, the straw is not enough, so they have to go to the town near the mountain or other villages to collect it, and then drag it back with a horse-drawn cart.

This thing is cheap, but if you really want to drag so many things back, it will take time and manpower.

By the time Guan Yu and the others confirmed the progress of the work, and Zhong Xiuyuan came up from the mountain, Li Mu had already disappeared, leaving only a single net thrown on the ground.

"Strange, he was still here just now, why did he disappear in a blink of an eye?" Guan Yu looked at the open space in the duck cage inexplicably.

He roughly counted the big white-haired ducks in the duck cage, and there were still thirteen. Apparently, Li Mu was still the loser in the classic drama Li Mu fights ducks here.

"It's okay, he should go up the mountain, I'll go find it myself!" Zhong Xiuyuan went into the duck cage and picked up the net that Li Mu dropped, put it where Li Mu often put it, and went up the mountain.

He has sent out all the invitation posts that Li Mu sent him before.

After walking back and forth in the town and the mountains like this, he was a little sweaty, and it happened to be a good time to take a shower and change into clean clothes when he went up the mountain.

After going up the mountain, Zhong Xiuyuan looked around the house, but he couldn't find Li Mu.

I asked Mr. Zheng who lived on the mountain, but he also said that he hadn't seen Li Mu go up the mountain.

Whether to find Li Mu or not, Zhong Xiuyuan went to the room to get his clothes, and went to the side to take a shower.

After taking a shower and getting dressed, Zhong Xiuyuan realized that he had taken the wrong clothes and it was Li Mu's.

He and Li Mu are about the same size, and the colors of their clothes are mostly dark and dirt-resistant, so if you don't pay attention, you will often pick them up wrong.

The two often took it wrong, but they didn't care, most of the time they just took it and wore it.

Now they haven't had time to move, many of his daily necessities are stored in the pharmacy at the bottom of the mountain, and more of Li Mu's clothes are stored on the mountain.

Zhong Xiuyuan took Li Mu's clothes and put them on. When he went out, he sniffed his cuffs, and could vaguely smell the scent that belonged to Li Mu.

As soon as he went out, he saw Zhong Manlu taking melons in the yard and pouring cold water into his stomach.

Now it is the season of autumn, but the sun is still very venomous, so hot that it is dead.

They lived in the mountains, and it was cool only for a short time in the evening and morning.

"Did you see Li Mu?" Zhong Xiuyuan asked while rolling up his sleeves.

Zhong Manlu, whose mouth was full of water, shook his head, he thought Li Mu and Zhong Xiuyuan were together.

"By the way, brother, did you tell him about that?" Zhong Manlu asked after putting down the melon.

"What's the matter?" Zhong Xiuyuan was puzzled.

"It's your birthday!" Zhong Manlu wiped his lips and replied.

Among the few of them, except for Yun'er's birthday which is near the Chinese New Year, the rest of them live earlier.Zhong Xiuyuan's birthday was just around the corner, and it happened to be the day they moved to their new home.

When Zhong Xiuyuan went to the foot of the mountain to find someone to count the housewarming days before, he really did not expect that this same day would be counted.

"Go ahead, I'll talk about it myself later." Zhong Xiuyuan said.

He didn't know if Li Mu still remembered this matter, he had mentioned it once before when celebrating Yun'er's birthday, after that because of the war and because of his departure, he never had the chance to spend it with Li Mu.

Just like this year, although they have been together for several years, they have not really spent the years together, and it is always wasted.

Zhong Xiuyuan has kept this matter in mind ever since he calculated the date of housewarming. He was a little hesitant, wondering if he should take the initiative to mention it to Li Mu.

In fact, this is not a big deal, he is not a child, and Li Mu has to give him some gifts or do something to him to make him feel comfortable.

It's just that he still cares a little bit after all.

He was somewhat looking forward to it, hoping that Li Mu would take what he had said to heart and be able to remember his birthday.

Thinking of this, Zhong Xiuyuan shook his head helplessly.

The day happened to coincide with the day of the housewarming, and there would be a lot of guests on that day, and it would be busy and busy, so Li Mu guessed that even if he remembered it, he would forget it.

It was evening, and the fiery red sun emerged from the other side of the mountain. The sky and forest filled with a thin icy atmosphere blurred the time, making it hard to tell whether it was morning or evening.

That gorgeous scene is a little fascinating.

In the forest, Li Mu, who was going to catch the tribute duck and chop it up, was chased by a group of ducks and ran to the mountain, and sat there for a while feeling discouraged.

When he took a breather and was about to go back, he found a black, round thing beside his feet.

That thing was smaller than a fist, and on the outside was a layer of rotten black skin. After kicking off the skin, there was a round hard core in the middle.

After playing with it for a while, Li Mu recognized this thing as a walnut.

He looked up, and sure enough, there was walnuts growing on the tree he was just sitting on.

After the walnut reaches a certain maturity, it will fall from the tree, so there are many walnuts with rotten skins in a large area under the tree.

Seeing this unexpected discovery, Li Mu regained his confidence from being hit by the duck.

Walnuts are a good thing, not to mention the medicinal value of prolonging life and anti-aging. They can also be eaten as dried fruits, stewed vegetables or used to make wine. It can be said to be a very versatile ingredient. .

In their area, although some walnuts are sold in the town, they are quite expensive. It costs a lot of money to buy a pound of dried walnuts.

Seeing this baby lump, Li Mu quickly took off his coat, then found a stick, and picked up a bunch of walnuts on the ground.

After picking up all the walnuts that fell on the ground, Li Mu looked up at the green walnuts that were about to ripen on the tree.

There are seven dozen walnuts and eight pears, and the September persimmons are turning red.

The green walnuts left on the tree are already late ripening. After Li Mu picked them up on the ground, there must be a lot hidden among the leaves.

Li Mu looked at the angel in the setting sun, thinking that he would bring a hoe to look for it tomorrow.

Carrying a large bag full of walnuts, Li Mu was in a good mood. On the way back, he had no expression on his face, but hummed a little song.

002.

In addition to the wild walnuts, there are many other wild fruit trees in these mountains.

Li Mu vaguely remembered that there seemed to be chestnuts in this mountain, and it was almost ripe at this time, and he had to go to this mountain to look for it tomorrow.

It is said that fruit trees were planted on these mountains in the early years, but because of the war, the family left and the fruit trees were sold or burned. Anyway, when Li Mu came, the mountains had already become what they are now.

Now it seems that the possibility of the family planting walnut trees and chestnut trees is quite high.

After returning home, Li Mu showed everyone the walnuts he picked up.

Then the next day Li Mu brought Mr. Zheng into the mountain early in the morning. The old man and the young man wandered around the mountain for a long time.

Picking chestnuts, digging walnuts, and being so busy every day, Zhong Xiuyuan couldn't help but feel a little jealous.

With this busyness, it was time for them to move.

Because the number of people invited for this housewarming is not small, it is a bit troublesome. In terms of food alone, several tables have to be prepared.

These things have to be prepared several days in advance, so they stop other things a few days in advance to focus on this.

Housewarming is actually just a formality. The custom here is that on the day of housewarming, they have to enter the new house before dawn in the morning, and then invite close people to cook a meal in the house, and the rest will be done later. daytime.

This day is not bright, which means after the day has passed, that is, in the middle of the night.

A few of them went to live in the new house first, and they had to bring a lot of things with them.

Dustpans, rice noodles, vegetables, and bamboos are all weird.

Even whoever enters the door first, which foot is used to enter the door, and what to say are all particular.

Listening to Xu Tian rambling on and on, fearing that they would bring bad omens if they made a wrong step, Li Mu had the urge to simply not go through the process, because it was really too troublesome.

But trouble is trouble, with everyone's little help, everything was prepared very quickly.

On the day of the housewarming, Li Mu, Zhong Xiuyuan, and Zhong Manlu felt like they were closing their eyes when Xu Tian knocked on the door and woke them up, telling them that it was almost time.

After Xu Tian babbled about the process to Li Mu and Zhong Xiuyuan, he handed the things he had prepared to them.

The three of them became very weird in an instant.

Li Mu walked in front, holding a dustpan and a broom, and Zhong Xiuyuan behind him was holding a large basket on his right, which contained all kinds of rice, flour and rapeseed, and a big round firecracker in his left hand.

Zhong Manlu, who was following them, was carrying a bamboo with mud on it. The bamboo was neither too big nor too long, so I chose a small one with leaves on it, which looked very weird...

The three of them walked out of Uncle Hong's house with strange outfits and carrying things.

When they go out, they can't go directly into their own house through the path, but instead they have to walk around the whole village with their things, meaning.

Then he went back to the yard and entered the door led by Li Mu who was holding a dustpan and a broom.

A few people entered the door, and the three Xu Tian's family who were helping by the side hurriedly helped them get firecrackers and went out to stand at the door to set them off.

The sound of crackling firecrackers resounded across the sky from the top of the mountain.

After setting off the firecrackers, the three of them didn't even have a stool to sit on, so they hurried to the kitchen to start a fire and cook noodles.

Here, there are various things to bring and what to say, as well as various aspects, even the cooking of noodles.

Ask Xu Tian about this, she can count a lot for you.

According to their customs here, the noodles cooked at this time should be eaten by close relatives.However, Li Mu had no relatives, so he was given to Xu Tian's family of three and Mr. Zheng.

After eating, they can rest for a while, but their banquet time is also set for today, so they have to start preparing ingredients from dawn.

Originally, Li Mu and Zhong Xiuyuan were still discussing and decided to go to the restaurant at the bottom of the mountain to hold a banquet.

After thinking about it, the people who came here were all my own people. In fact, I just wanted to be lively, so I cooked by myself.And the mountain is also convenient, otherwise you have to run up and down.

When the dawn turned pale, Li Mu yawned and sat in his yard choosing vegetables.

Not only Li Mu here was yawning because he didn't sleep well at night, Zhong Xiuyuan in the kitchen, and Zhong Manlu who moved tables and chairs into the yard also yawned profusely.

Elder Zheng couldn't stand it anymore, played with his sleeves, entered the kitchen, and began to direct everyone to prepare.

Today's chef was originally Li Mu, but because he didn't sleep well last night, and Mr. Zheng offered to help, everyone didn't say a word, and hurried out of the kitchen.

None of them disliked Mr. Zheng's craftsmanship. If he could help with the banquet this time, it would be a great wish.

With the help of Mr. Zheng in the kitchen, other things became easier.

The banquet was scheduled at noon, so as soon as the mountain was bright and the sun came out, guests came to the mountain one after another.

The first ones to come were naturally the group of long-term workers. They had a banquet here at noon, but things still had to be done, so after the congratulations on the mountain, they each went to work on their own.

Bai Osmanthus and several people from the Su family also came early.

Needless to say, Xu Tian and Xia Jingming's family were in the mountains early in the morning helping to choose and wash vegetables and prepare them.

Guan Yu didn't go down the mountain today, but helped him inside the mountain.

In the middle of the morning, Master Qin took his servants up the mountain.

Seeing this, Li Mu hurried up to meet him.

Arriving at Master Qin's side, before Li Mu had time to say a word, a complaining voice came from behind Master Qin.

"I said it's not good where you live, why do you have to live in this mountain, I'm exhausted!" Ma Yi, who was sweating so hot, complained.

He is not the kind of person who does not work, but he is used to sitting in a sedan chair and riding a horse on weekdays. Now it takes him an hour to climb this mountain. It is such a hot day. half life.

"What are you doing here?" Li Mu didn't remember inviting this person.

When Ma Yi saw Li Mu's face, he remembered what happened when he squatted in the latrine at home for nearly half a month...

"Come here to save face!" Ma Yi's face was as black as charcoal, he passed Li Mu, walked towards Li Mu's new house, and asked Zhong Manlu for water.

Li Mu's eyes followed his back, he didn't seem to remember that he wanted this person to give him face.

Seeing this, Master Qin said with a smile, "Just give him some face!"

Li Mu didn't send the invitation to him before, and Ma Yi has been a little unhappy since he found out.

Later, when Master Qin set off on the road by himself, he deliberately revealed his whereabouts. As expected, this person 'coincided' with him on the road, and then 'dropped' here.

Today is a happy day, Li Mu doesn't want to argue with Ma Yi.

After he led Master Qin into the room, he poured him a cup of tea and asked him to sit temporarily.

Just as the tea was handed out here, a young man about the same age as Zhong Manlu ran into the yard.

Although the amount of money is full of sweat, it looks very energetic.

On the way he just came up, he took a detour to play at Li Mu's duck cage, so it was a bit late when he came up.

Ma Yi took a bowl and drank cold water in big gulps in the yard, watching his nephew jumping up and down, he almost spit out a sip of water.

In this hot weather, Qianqian actually still has the strength to dance.

Just when Ma Yi put down the bowl, pinched his arms and legs secretly, and began to wonder if he was really old, several other people who Li Mu didn't invite also followed Qian Qian into the yard.

Boss Shi and his followers followed behind Qian Qianqian, their heads were already sweating, and they were so hot that they could hardly breathe.

Needless to say, these people must have followed Qian Qianqian after he received the invitation.

Seeing that all the people he had invited had arrived, Li Mu went to the kitchen and brought out the herbal tea that had been brewed for a long time, and poured a cup for each of them.

In this weather, other places have already become cooler, but their place is still terribly hot, and they don't know how long it will be hot.

Seeing that everyone was almost there, Master Qin started and handed the red envelope he had prepared to Li Mu.

This housewarming is a happy event, and of course a happy event must have a happy ending.

Li Mu didn't delay, took the generous red envelope from Master Qin, and thanked him.

Seeing that Mr. Qin also made a move, Qianqian took out a red bag from his arms, "Hey, here's something fun for you!"

Li Mu took the bag over and touched it. What was in it, it wasn't money anyway.

"Take it." Ma Yi also threw one of the things he brought over.

He also gave the same thing, I don't know what it is, but it looks quite big, a bit like a painting.

But Li Mu knew that after going through those things before, even if this person gave him a stack of silver notes, it was absolutely impossible to give him a painting.

It's not that he thinks it's expensive, it's just that he can't bear it, and he's afraid that it will be ruined by him!

After collecting the things of these three people, Li Mu put them away carefully. He didn't go to see Boss Shi and the others. Obviously, these people couldn't come here to congratulate him.

He also didn't want to make fun of himself, especially at such a festive time.

Li Mu didn't mind, but the money beside him did.

"Hey, where's your red envelope?" Seeing that Li Mu was about to leave, Qian Qianqian hurriedly asked for help.

Seeing that Li Mu didn't ask them for red envelopes, Boss Shi on the side had an arrogance of "you're still sensible" on his face, but now he heard the question of Qian Qian, the corners of his mouth twitched.

Seeing that these people were silent, Qian Qianqian hurriedly stepped forward and said, "This housewarming is a happy event, and there are red envelopes for you, don't you all know this?"

Qian Qianqian looked at the few people in front of him, what he implied was that if you didn't give red envelopes, why did you follow him here before?

How could a few people not know about this kind of thing, being reprimanded by a child much younger than themselves at this moment, their faces were a little hot.

Boss Shi had a black face and forced a smile, he took out the money bag from his sleeve.

Seeing this, Qianqian hurriedly took it over and opened it for a look, then looked at Boss Shi with even more distaste, "You are a big boss after all, aren't you so stingy?"

The corner of Boss Shi's mouth twitched fiercely again. When he came, he didn't plan to give Li Mu a red envelope from the beginning.

If it weren't for the elm head of money, he wouldn't have mentioned it at all.

"Bring some more!" Qian Qianqian spread his hand at Boss Shi.

Boss Shi has given money to the purse right now, so where is the money left?

Qianqian didn't know whether it was really too stupid or too natural, or if he was pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. He looked around Boss Shi, pointed to the most expensive finger on Boss Shi's body, and said, "Give it to me."

That finger is the most precious thing on Boss Shi's body, and it is also one of his favorite collections.

Normally, he didn't even want to show others more, but now he had to show it, because he couldn't offend money.Boss Shi, who was so heartbroken but had to smile and took off the finger, put it in Qian Qianqian's hand, gave Li Mu a contorted look.

Quite satisfied, Qianqian put the wrench into the bag and handed it to Li Mu.

Li Mu hadn't thought of accepting Boss Shi's gift at first, but now Boss Shi has such a mournful face, and if he doesn't accept the things, he will be too sorry for himself.

Li Mu put away the things, and then said a cool thank you to Boss Shi, who was so angry that the boss' eyes were red.

003.

"What about you?" Qian Qianqian looked at the others.

After watching the scene just now, these people knew that they would definitely be skinned this time, so they all consciously handed over their things.

After collecting all the red envelopes for Li Mu, Qian Qianqian nodded to several people quite satisfied.

After Li Mu put away his things, he patted him on the shoulder, "You are a malleable talent."

He used to think that this money was a bit noisy, but now he thinks that this person is a malleable talent, if he is trained/taught properly, he might really become a big deal in the future.

"Hey..." Originally, I was thinking about asking Li Mu to learn two tricks, but when I heard this, I immediately smiled stupidly, and looked at Li Mu eagerly, "Can I live on the mountain for a few days?"

Li Mu looked at the man in front of him with a foolish smile, and was somewhat suspicious of the rumors that the outside world said that this man was good at business but had extremely low EQ.

Maybe the silly-looking young man in front of him is really a role of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.

While speaking, it was already time for dinner, Li Mu hurriedly arranged for everyone to be seated.

Bai Osmanthus, Xu Tian and the others sat at a table, and a few long-term workers made a table.Master Qin, Ma Yi, Qian Qianqian, and Li Mu sat at a table.The remaining Boss Shi and the others were turned away by Qian Qian with a look of disgust on their faces to set up a table with the remaining long-term workers.

After all the dishes were served on the table, Li Mu called Mr. Zheng over and sat at the same table with them.

Although Mr. Zheng is the royal cook in the palace, he also travels outside all the year round, but Qian Qianqian and Ma Yi really don't know each other, after all, they are separated like mountains.

Elder Zheng didn't reveal his identity, sat down next to Li Mu, and just regarded himself as an ordinary person.

Mr. Zheng didn't speak, but Boss Shi, who was standing beside him, saw Mr. Zheng walking out of the kitchen wearing an apron, but his face changed drastically in an instant.

"Boss Shi, can you see if that person is that Zheng Yuchu?" The person next to the boss also had a very ugly expression.

They have been looking for this person for a while now, and they just wanted to let him settle the matter of the tribute duck quickly.

They had already received money from others before, but now the matter has been dragging on and cannot be settled. If it continues for a long time, I am afraid that something bad will happen.

But some time ago, this person suddenly disappeared while talking with them. They kept searching everywhere, but fortunately, they met Li Mu here!

What does Li Mu do?Li Mu feeds the ducks, they all know about it.

Looking at the current situation, does Li Mu also want to take part in this matter?

Some time ago, Li Mu raised tribute ducks, and they had heard about it, but they also probably knew that the number of ducks was small.And when they found the imperial chef, it was after the imperial chef and his party had left Li Mu's mountain.

They originally thought that Li Mu was nothing to fear here, so did Li Mu use some tricks?

Everyone looked very ugly, but Boss Shi quickly poured a glass of wine and came to say hello to Mr. Zheng.

"So you are here!" Boss Shi took the initiative to fill the glass in front of Mr. Zheng with wine.

Mr. Zheng was talking to Li Mu who was next to him. When he saw the wine glass in front of him, he glanced back at the respectful Boss Shi and nodded, then ignored him.

He has been walking outside for so long, and there are many people who want to make friends with him, such as Boss Shi and his like, he doesn't even bother to look at them.

"When I left, remember to give me some of the walnuts I picked up earlier." Elder Zheng and Li Mu said.

He went up the mountain with Li Mu to pick up the walnuts. Wild walnuts are not a rare variety, but he picked them himself.Although it was not good enough to pay tribute to the emperor, it was interesting and meaningful for him to keep it for himself.

"Why are you here..." Boss Shi tried to talk to Mr. Zheng again.

He had been strongly recommending his own duck before, and he wanted to let this person set the tribute as that thing, but he never succeeded.

Mr. Zheng ignored him at all at the moment, and after thinking about it, he hurriedly said to Li Mu: "There are still chestnuts, choose some for me too."

Some of the walnuts picked up before have broken skins, while some are still good.

Except for the fresh ones, these walnuts need to dig a hole in the ground, bury it in it, wait for a period of time, and then take it out and wash it after the skin rots.The walnuts washed out in this way are very clean and convenient to dry and store.

"Okay, I'll pack it up for you later." Li Mu nodded. In terms of food, the only person he is generous with is probably Mr. Zheng.

Boss Shi, who was on the side saying a few words but no one responded, looked at Li Mu who was talking to Mr. Zheng, with a bit of a fierce look in his eyes.

It's Li Mu again!

It's that damn guy again!

Ma Yi's business was him before, because this guy lied to Ma Yi's paintings, and Ma Yi's attitude towards him was so bad that he went to visit Ma Yi for a long time, but Ma Yi turned him away Just ignore him.

Not only did he not please him that time, but it backfired and made him sick.

Not to mention money, this man is just a no-brainer.

I didn't expect that even this old Zheng let Li Mu hook up now, wouldn't this ruin his good deed again?

Boss Shi failed to strike up a conversation several times, his face was as black as charcoal, and he was very embarrassed standing beside him.

Money seemed to be insufficient, so he said coolly, "Oh, I don't want to talk to you, so just go away, standing here is blocking me."

Originally, Boss Shi was extremely embarrassed, but now Qian Qian's voice was louder, and everyone immediately looked at him, and the embarrassment on his face made his whole face flush.

Boss Shi cast another gloomy look at Li Mu who was next to him, then went back to his desk and sat down angrily.

Seeing him like this, the few people next to him didn't dare to speak, they just ate in a muffled voice.

Everyone started to eat, and after tasting the taste, they immediately praised it vigorously.

Mr. Zheng took it for granted and didn't change his face.

After all, he is also the imperial chef in the palace, serving three generations of emperors, his craftsmanship is of course top notch.

Although he has not cooked for some years because of his age, some things are much better than ordinary cooks, let alone these people.

Hearing everyone's admiration, even Mr. Qin and Qianqian and Ma Yi, who are used to delicacies from mountains and seas, couldn't help but look at Mr. Zheng with admiration.

Several people chatted for a while, seeing that Mr. Zheng didn't want to reveal his identity, they didn't ask any questions.

The few people in this building are all winking, compared with the stone boss next to them, it is completely different.Although they were still very curious, it didn't take long for Li Mu to get to know another character.

After everyone started eating, many people took the initiative to bring wine over to Li Mu and congratulate him.
