Chapter 7 His innocence

Mu Dalang watched the girl enter the house under the moonlight, put Little Douding on the bed, pulled the quilt over, and wrapped Little Douding tightly.

Just as the girl was about to climb onto the bed, Mu Dalang asked nervously: "What are you going to do?"

Yang Mu watched Mu Dalang's expression finally change, and said with interest: "Go to sleep."

Mu Dalang frowned, "Why sleep together?"

Yang Mu said helplessly: "Because there is no other house, and you are my husband."

Mu Dalang's fingers under the quilt tightly grasped a broken piece of porcelain, which he had managed to hide during the day.

Men, you must protect yourself outside!

Although he is weak because of the poison, it does not mean that he will get everything he wants!

If this woman wants to use force, he will cut his own neck with a piece of porcelain!

He swallowed, not daring to look at the girl's graceful silhouette, and stammered: "No, we can't sleep together."

Yang Mu rolled his eyes, "Oh, we've been sleeping together for a few days."

Mu Dalang's face darkened instantly.

His reputation, his innocence!

It's just like a joke and it's gone?

This matter must not be spread back to the capital!

Yang Mu ignored him, continued to climb onto the bed, and lay down on the innermost side.

Mu Dalang looked at it and saw that there was a child between the two of them. He felt a little more at ease, gritted his teeth and turned away, turning sideways.

Yang Mu stared at the roof in a daze. He went to bed too early and had no nightlife. It was so boring.

I have to go to the back mountain again tomorrow to get some good stuff and sell it in the county town.

After buying some daily necessities, it would be best to find some business opportunities and make some money.

Otherwise, after the separation of the family, we will not be able to take advantage of the rice noodles and oil of the old Yang family. If we sit back and have nothing, life will become more and more difficult.

Suddenly, there was a sound, like something scratching the door with its claws.

Yang Mu sat up and got out of bed to check.

Outside the door was a big black dog, wet and shivering.

It turned out to be raining.

When it was too cold before, Cao Xiaoxue kindly let the black dog come into the house to sleep for a few nights.

Seeing the door open, the black dog hurriedly wagged his tail, his big eyes full of prayer.

Yang Mu let the door open, and the black dog tentatively stretched out a paw to observe Yang Mu's reaction. Seeing that Yang Mu was not angry, he quickly slipped in, found the corner that occasionally belonged to him, and huddled up.

Yang Mu went to the big box to find a few pieces of clothes that were all patched, and put them on the floor.

The big black dog looked at Yang Mu in disbelief and gratitude, then carefully curled up on his clothes.

Yang Mu touched the big black dog's head and went to bed.

Yang Shitou fell asleep as soon as he hit the pillow, snoring lightly.

Mu Dalang pretended to be asleep the whole time. As long as he couldn't see Embarrassing, Embarrassing couldn't see him.

In the front yard, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law continued to have a small meeting.

Mrs. Zhao was hungry and asked her two daughters-in-law to cook. But the kitchen was in the backyard and Yang Mu was also in the backyard, so the two daughters-in-law didn't want to get into trouble.

The three of them hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to go hungry and wait until tomorrow when the loser went to the river to wash clothes, and they would go to the backyard to cook.

…

Mu Dalang was woken up by being shaken by Yang Shitou.

"Brother-in-law, let's have dinner!"

Mu Dalang was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered his current situation as "the village's father-in-law" and wanted to tell Yang Shitou not to call him brother-in-law.

But after thinking about it, people were under the eaves, so they bowed their heads for the time being.

His face darkened for three seconds, but he finally picked up the meal beside the bed.

Rice porridge, sprinkled with pink pickled radish cubes, smells refreshing.

He scooped the rice porridge with a spoon and put it into his mouth. Mu Dalang's eyes lit up.

The rice porridge is sweet and thick, and the diced radish has a light sour and spicy taste, which is crisp and appetizing.

Did that girl make it? Is it so delicious?

"Where is your sister?" Mu Dalang asked while eating.

Yang Shitou played with small stones in his hand and said in a sweet voice: "The last three (mountains)."

At this time, a woman's voice came from outside the house: "Stone!"

The little stone let out a loud "ahem" and ran out of the house with a "da da da" sound.

The person coming from outside the house is Sister-in-law Zhu, the daughter-in-law of Aunt Wang's family.

Aunt Wang's family has a good relationship with Cao Xiaoxue, and they often take care of Yang Mu and Yang Shitou.

Aunt Wang's son Zhou Dazhuang also rescued Cao Xiaoxue from the river and carried him all the way back to Lao Yang's house.

Before Yang Mu went up the mountain today, he went to Aunt Wang's house and asked Sister-in-law Zhu to take some time to visit Yang Shitou and Mu Dalang.

In front of outsiders, Zhao couldn't go too far.

Sister-in-law Zhu touched Yang Shitou's little head with a smile, and sat on a small bench in the yard to chat with the child.

"Shitou, have you had enough breakfast?"

Yang Shitou nodded and said happily: "I'm full for the first time!"

Xiao Douding patted her slightly bulging belly. The rice porridge made by her sister is delicious!

And in his memory, this was the first time he had such a full breakfast!

When his mother was alive, he could occasionally have breakfast, but it was just vegetable soup with clear soup and little water, which was not full.

Yang Shitou smiled and threw away the small stone in his hand, and the big black dog ran to pick it up.

Sister-in-law Zhu sighed, the elder brother and sister of the old Yang family are really pitiful, their parents are gone, and their grandmother Zhao is like that, she doesn't know what life will be like in the future.

I hope that the son-in-law recruited can work in the fields. In this case, the siblings can be a little more relaxed.

However, I seem to have heard from Mr. Ding that that man is a sick man?

Seeing Yang Shitou having fun with the dog, Sister-in-law Zhu asked, "Where is your brother-in-law?"

Yang Shitou turned his head and glanced at Sister-in-law Zhu, pointed to the small room, "Let's have dinner." After that, he went to play with the big black dog.

Sister-in-law Zhu saw that the door was open, so she stood up and wanted to go in and see the sick man.

As soon as he stood up, he felt that it was unreasonable for a man and a woman to be alone, so he sat down again.

In the front yard, Zhao's mother-in-law and Yang Xiaohua woke up one after another and were arguing with each other about who should cook.

After a long while, Mrs. Ding couldn't stand up to her mother-in-law's majesty and Mr. Lai's trickery, so she got up and went to the backyard.

When I looked up and saw Sister-in-law Zhu, I felt unhappy. Originally, I could still scold the little disaster star because the money-losing guy was not there, but I couldn't do it in front of outsiders.

Mrs. Ding twisted her waist and walked over and said with a smile: "You from the Dazhuang family came to our house so early?"

Sister-in-law Zhu was thin-skinned, so she felt a little embarrassed when she said this. She said embarrassedly: "It was Sister Mu who asked me to look at the stones."

Mrs. Ding rolled her eyes and said angrily: "This Mu Yatou made it sound like our family abused stones, and even found someone to watch."

Sister-in-law Zhu said to herself, the whole village is rumored that your family abused the Shitou siblings. Don’t you know?

But she was embarrassed to say it, so she could only smile and say nothing, but she didn't leave either.

Ding couldn't really turn away the guests, so she could only go to the kitchen and make breakfast.

Sister-in-law Zhu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Mr. Ding said one more thing, she would be embarrassed to stay still.

…

While Ding was cooking, Yang Mu was already going up the mountain.

In the morning, she found that the water in the small gourd appeared again, as much as yesterday, and she couldn't help but feel very good.

Divide the water in the small gourd into three parts, add one part each to Yang Shitou and Mu Dalang's rice porridge, and drink one part yourself.

The water was very sweet, like the juice of sugar cane, and Yang Mu named it - Tiantian water.

After Yang Mu drank the sweet water, he felt refreshed and felt light on his feet when going up the mountain.

Yang Mu searched around the mountain and went down the mountain with a full harvest.

Today's luck was really bad. Not only did she pick a lot of mushrooms and catch three pheasants, but she also found an herbal medicine - white peony root.
