Xia He was carried back by Zhang Shixi.

His small body was lying on his father's body, his face was pale, and a large piece of green and red was knocked on his leg, mixed with mud.Zhang's house was relatively close to the mountain, so Zhang Shixi didn't rush to Li's house, but carried Xia He back to his own house, and asked Lan Niang to wash his wound quickly.After Lan Niang found a piece of clean cloth to wrap around Xia He's legs, he was relieved and turned to Li's house to tell them.

Li Mu immediately expressed that he would follow and take a look.

The house where the three sisters lived was now empty, but it was cleaned very cleanly. Lan Niang used this method to pretend that the two daughters and one child in the writer were still under her knees. This time it was convenient for Xia He to have a place rest.When Li Mu arrived, he saw Xia He hugging his leg and touching it back and forth along Lan Niang's wrapped area, as if he found it novel.

Seeing him like this, Li Mu breathed a sigh of relief.

When Xia He heard the movement, she turned her head and saw Li Mu coming, and waved: "Mr. Xiang!" After saying that, she wanted to stand up.

Li Mu hurriedly stopped him: "Don't move, just lie down."

"It's okay, it's just a layer of skin torn, and it will be fine in two or three days!" He assured, patting his chest.

Before Li Mu could say anything, Zhang Shixi from the other room began to scold: "You son of a bitch, if you dare to get daddy out of bed in two or three days, daddy will beat you until you can't get out!"

Xia He shrank her neck, and couldn't see Zhang Shiyi, making faces in the direction of his voice.

Li Mu patted his head: "Yue Zhang is also doing it for your own good."

Xia He curled his lips, he also knew that his father was hard-mouthed and soft-hearted.Just asking him to stay on the bed for several days, Xia He couldn't sit still.

When Lan Niang came in with the porridge, she saw Xia He couldn't sit still like a monkey, twisting and turning there.Some worried that the second son-in-law would dislike Xia He's unrestrained temperament, so he glanced at Li Mu, only to see that he was actually smiling.Just as Lan Niang breathed a sigh of relief, she thought about it deeply, but she was startled and almost smashed the bowl.

She has seen Li Mu's appearance to Qiuyue. Although a young couple respect each other like a guest, what a good husband and son-in-law should do, Li Mu did it all by himself, but his appearance is not much different from that of outsiders. Let Lan Niang feel a kind of coolness.She originally thought it was Li Mu's nature, but now seeing Li Mu smiling at Xia He's eyes, she felt a little uneasy in her heart.

Could it be that the second uncle has really taken a fancy to Xia He?This is amazing!She was also counting on Xia He to put him back into men's clothes after Xia He passed by!

With this thought in Lan Niang's mind, she didn't dare to let Xia He go back. She wondered whether Li Mu would cool down again if they were separated for a few days.So she lowered her head and said, "My lord, Xia He has hurt his leg. It's best not to move around for the next two days. Look, wouldn't it be better for him to live at home?"

Hearing this, Li Mu glanced around.It has to be said that Lan Niang still manages the family well, and keeps the dilapidated hut clean and tidy, but in Li Mu's eyes, this house is really too simple.The room was nothing more than a bed, a box, and not even a place to wash up.Instead, there was a plate in a corner with a layer of sand spread inside. Could it be that this is what Xia He used to practice calligraphy?He hesitated for a moment, and said: "This... it's better to live in my house more comfortably, and I can ask Xia He to take a good rest."

The person next to Xia He didn't hear it, but felt that Li Mu's tone meant that he disliked his house, so he couldn't help saying: "Why is my house uncomfortable, I grew up here."

After Xia He said that, Li Mu had no choice but to say: "Alright then, I'll come and see you tomorrow."

Before Xia He could answer, Lan Niang asked strangely, "Young master, aren't you going to the academy?"

"Mister gave me a leave of absence, so I can rest at home for a few more days." Li Mu explained.

Seeing Li Mu's concern for Xia He, Lan Niang was a little worried, but she couldn't open her mouth to drive Li Mu to study, so she sighed secretly and went to her own boss for advice.

It has been a long time since Xia He spent the night in the big house she lived in when she was a child. She slept soundly this night, but she didn't know that in the next room, her parents could not sleep all night.

After listening to Lan Niang's analysis, Zhang Shixi patted the bed: "Mistake! He should have taken Xia He away in the first place."

"Fortunately, the Li family thought Xia He was a stone girl, so they probably wouldn't touch him. Sigh, I thought the second son-in-law was cold-faced and cold-hearted, why..." Lan Niang said worriedly.

"Hmph!" Zhang Shiyi snorted angrily, asking him to give an idea, but he didn't know what to do.

Lan Niang didn't have a clue either, the emotions in her heart were the hardest to control, and also the least listenable to others.She didn't know Li Mu very well, but she just met a few times when she went to Li's house to see Qiuyue.The husband and wife tossed and turned all night, and on the second day, they both had circles under their eyes, and each was darker than the other.

Xia He saw Lan Niang first, she was quite worried, and asked: "Mother, why didn't you sleep well? Did it rain yesterday, and your old problem of leg pain happened again? Let me rub it for you! "

Xia He found an excuse for Lan Niang herself, so Lan Niang didn't have to think about how to explain to Xia He why she couldn't sleep well last night, so she nodded and sat on the head of the bed with Xia He, crossing her legs On the couch, let Xia He push and rub her.

When Lan Niang left, Zhang Shixi came over to take a look, Xia He saw her father's tired face again, and asked strangely, "Father, why didn't you sleep well?"

"Hmph, it's up to you!" Zhang Shixi didn't explain, but went to the corner in two or three steps, and brought over the wooden plate filled with sand.First, he set up a small table in front of Xia He, and then put the wooden plate on it, saying: "Father already knew that you would not work hard in Li's house, so you don't need to do the other things in the next two days, so please be silent Book!"

Seeing the sand table, Xia He had a bad feeling. After hearing Zhang Shixi's words, he looked sadly at Zhang Shixi, hoping that he would be merciful.

However, Zhang Shixi stuffed the wooden stick placed aside into Xia He's hand, and urged, "Write! Dad is working in the yard, and he will visit you from time to time. If he sees you being lazy..."

In the middle of his speech, he didn't mention what would happen to Xia He if he was lazy, but Xia He trembled for no reason, and hurriedly practiced hard.

Zhang Shixi went around several fields early this morning, and found that everything was safe, so he did what he said, stayed in the yard to do some work, and went to Xia He's house from time to time to check. Is there anything wrong with what is written on the sand table?

Xia He hasn't written silently for many days, and many things have been forgotten in the back of her mind, and the writing on the sand table is a mess.If Zhang Shiyi picks out a wrong place, he will get knocked.Before the morning was over, Xia He murmured to herself, if she stays for a few days, the greens knocked out by her father will be more scary than the ones on her legs.

Just after Zhang Shixi checked, Li Mu finally came to Zhang's house.

Although the Zhang family and his wife were not very happy for Li Mu to contact Xia He again at this time, after all, they had worshiped in a serious manner. If they didn't want to reveal that Xia He was a man, they didn't have any reason to stop Li Mu from coming down.He had no choice but to watch Li Mu go to Xia He's house. Zhang Shixi felt angry and split the firewood in his hand as Li Mu.

Xia He didn't dare to raise her head, she only thought why her father left and returned so quickly this time, and complained: "Oh, can't you trust me!"

"Xia He." Li Mu called out.

Hearing Li Mu's voice, Xia He realized that it wasn't Zhang Shiyi who came again. He hurriedly dropped the wooden stick in his hand, heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "I thought I was about to be beaten again, but there happened to be a word , I can’t even remember how to write it.”

"I'll teach you." Li Mu said, looking down at the sand table.When Xia He was writing, her mind was not at all calm, so what she wrote was naturally very messy.He couldn't help smiling, but Xia He misunderstood that Li Mu thought his handwriting was ugly, so he quickly rolled up his sleeves and wiped the sand carelessly.

Then he raised his head and stared at Li Mu, his eyes seemed to say, don't you dare to laugh at me again.

Li Mu had no choice but to comfort him and said, "I'll bring you a pen, ink, paper, inkstone and books from home. You have been practicing calligraphy on this sand table since you were young, but you can't practice calligraphy with only this. Don't be stingy with paper. There is still time to correct it now." .”

Xia He murmured: "I just wrote this for Dad."

On the contrary, Zhang Shiyi pricked up one ear, and when he heard Li Mu's words, he poked his head in quickly, and replied, "This is troublesome uncle. If you have suitable copybooks, you can bring some for Xia He, and find them for him. Do something and calm down. It can also make my uncle feel at ease, so you don’t have to run here all the time.”

Li Mu is a little strange, why does Yuezhang seem to dislike him today, when he talks in and out of place?

He pretended not to notice, and went to Raonan Town early the next morning, and specially bought a copybook written by a master from the previous dynasty. This senior was famous for his beautiful handwriting, and he heard that it was favored by many girls.Then he rushed to Zhang's house with the newly purchased copybook and the four treasures of the study.

Before Li Mu came, Lan Niang had just untied the cloth strips tied around Xia He's legs, and had a look at how the wound looked.The shallow cut was scabbed, and the deep cut was still there. Lan Niang looked at her distressedly, and seeing Xia He wanted to bend her knees, she hurriedly stopped him, and said angrily, "You still want to make the cut open again?" open?"

Xia He had no choice but to continue to grimace, straighten her legs, and watched Lan Niang replace it with a clean white cloth, and wrap it up again.

When she heard that Li Mu was coming, Xia He's face became even more bitter.He still remembered that Li Mu said yesterday that he would bring him a pen and paper, and he thought Zhang Shixi would not tell him to be lazy after seeing these things.What fell on the paper couldn't be wiped off. If I made a mistake, I was afraid that Zhang Shiyi would have to hit it with a stick again.

Seeing Xia He's head hanging down, Li Mu looked unhappy and knew that he didn't like to study, but he still moved the sand table away and placed the utensils he brought in front of Xia He's eyes one by one. The copybook was unfolded, and he held Xia He's hand Hand, start teaching from holding a pen: "I happen to have nothing to do these few days, why don't I teach you calligraphy." Li Mu said yes.

Xia He was reluctant and refused to cooperate.

Li Mu originally thought that he had enough time to deal with him, so if he was unwilling, he would stay until he was willing, and there was a father-in-law watching outside.I didn't think about it, and not long after, Aunt Lin suddenly ran over panting, dancing and dancing: "Master! Master! The servant is here to announce the good news!"
