With the help of the incense of lure, the locusts around Luoyang City were basically extinct at noon the next day. There were still some that had not been cleaned and were also the eggs that were born in the heart, but their number was no longer worrying. When there was no locust plague in previous years, there would be a few grasshoppers in the field, which was not considered a disaster. The people hated the locusts and wanted to kill all the locusts. However, the incense of lure has been used up and wanted to strangle them on a large scale, unless they created some incense of lures.

Li Mu has learned the formula, and making incense is nothing more than buying some medicinal materials and spending some time. But he has already said that this incense was made by the immortals. Now that the immortals have left, where can they get the incense of insects? And at this time the disaster has been controlled, and there is no need to make another batch. Therefore, when the villagers come to look for it, Li Mu only rudes away the secret recipe of the immortals, and he has made excuses. The locust plague was eliminated, and the people were all in the eyes of the people. There is no doubt about whether Li Mu was really reincarnated in the golden immortal. No one does not believe it. The marquis said that there is no, so there is no. Otherwise, how could the marquis who are as good as a son not make another batch?

After appeased the people, Li Mu asked Li Tai and Li Chunfeng to lead all the officials from the Marquis' Mansion to the countryside and organize farmers to harvest grain step by step. In fact, the locust plague dispersed and the people were not worried about harvesting grain. Li Mu had his own considerations for doing this. This time he suffered the loss of not having any grain stored, so this time he had to "receive" autumn grain. As long as the farmers harvested the grain, they would immediately collect the public grain, and not leave each household. In addition to the public grain, he also had to purchase the stored grain on a large scale, filling the four large warehouses in the southeast, southwest and northwest of Luoyang City, so that there would be no possibility of no grain in the city.

The grain stored in the city was almost exhausted, but the people in the city were not as panicked as before. Everyone knew that the locust plague had passed. In more than ten days, the new grain would come down. Even if they were hungry, they would not be hungry for many days. Moreover, the Marquis asked the Jinyiwei to open a porridge stall in the main neighborhoods in the city to drink porridge for the people in the city for free. Although drinking porridge is not as good as dry rice, it is enough to fill the stomach. It is rumored that the Marquis' meals were also solved in the porridge shop, just like the people. The Marquis's such a noble person drank porridge with the people. As the people, what complaints do they have? Although there are people with ulterior motives to instigate, there are few and no storms.

...

Hou's Mansion.

"Good baby Qiaoqiao, come and try the chicken soup I cooked for you." Li Mu came in with a tray like a treasure. Bai Qiaoqiao and Jin Chen, who were talking, both turned around when they heard the sound. Li Mu put the tray on the table and greeted the two of them, "Come and try it quickly, how is my skill?"

Jin Chen helped Bai Qiaoqiao get out of bed, walked to the table, and sniffed it gently, and it was indeed extremely fragrant. Li Mu handed over the bowls and chopsticks, first served a large bowl for Bai Qiaoqiao, and then Jin Chen's. There was about a bowl in the porcelain basin, but Li Mu did not serve it, but reached out to pull the chicken's thighs off.

"Drink it quickly, I've been simmered for a whole morning. I added a lot of medicinal herbs according to the prescription, saying that it can replenish vital energy."

Bai Qiaoqiao sighed with the chicken soup in the bowl, and said, "Husband, the locust plague has just passed. I heard from my sister Chen that the people outside drink porridge, and no one can eat dry food. But our family still eats meat every meal. Is this good? If it spreads, it will be for your reputation-"

"I don't have any reputation," Li Mu said with a slight smile. When he saw the two girls coming over, he said dryly, "I mean, what do you care about those false reputations? If others can't eat meat, we won't eat meat, then will we never eat meat?" Li Mufeng swallowed a chicken leg like a cloud and pulled a chicken wing. "In this world, there are always people who can't afford meat. What's the relationship with disasters? Those lazy guys are like that? I'm catching up with locust plagues. They still have porridge that doesn't cost money. Besides, I'm not the kind of unethical person. I've made all the chickens I should eat, and why can't I eat them? When I ate, I'm already kind enough to not slap in front of them-"

"I'm talking nonsense again, okay, I'll just drink it when I didn't say it." Bai Qiaoqiao interrupted Li Mu and refused to let him continue. Li Mu has a nickname called "Chang Youli", which Qiaoqiao secretly gave him to him to advise his sisters. It means that he should not reason with him. If you can't talk to him, as long as he wants to talk to you, he can always explain the truth after he talks, so the most sensible way is not to talk to him.

Li Mu raised his eyebrows proudly, Jin Chen pursed his lips and smiled, without interfering with it, drinking the soup in the bowl.

"Sister Tian hasn't seen each other a few times recently. Husband, can you persuade her? What if you are tired?"

Li Mu spit out the chicken bone in his mouth and said, "I can persuade you like her. If she likes, do it. There is nothing she can't handle."

Bai Qiaoqiao's original intention was that it was not good for the wife of the Hou Mansion to show up all day long, but after hearing Li Mu's words, she felt that Li Mu's words made sense. When did he care about these things? Zhang Tian's ability to do what he liked is also a blessing. Judging others by himself and thinking from the perspective of others, if he is Sister Tian, ​​he doesn't want to do what he likes, and he is stopped by others and cannot do it.

Thinking of this, Bai Qiaoqiao stopped talking about anything.

"Can I come in?" As I was chatting, I suddenly heard a question from outside the door. Li Mu was about to answer, but Jin Chen grabbed his hand. Bai Qiaoqiao glanced at him and said, "It's Sister Yingluo? Come in, I've said a long time ago, don't be restrained when you think you are your own family."

Li Mu smiled bitterly in his heart. He knew Bai Qiaoqiao so well. The more polite she was, the more she would be speaking sarcastic. If she really became her own person, she would not say this anymore.

Wei Yingluo came in from outside and was about to salute, but Li Mu raised his hand and pointed to the opposite position, signaling her to sit. Wei Yingluo seemed a little hesitant when she saw the chicken soup on the table. Should she sit or not?

Li Mu saw her embarrassment and naturally put the last bowl of soup in his bowl, handed it over, and said, "This bowl has never been used, can you taste my skills?"

Wei Yingluo refused repeatedly, how dare she dared Bai Qiaoqiao face to face? The situation was awkward, but in the end, Bai Qiaoqiao spoke, and then she carefully took the bowl and tasted it with a spoon. It tasted very good.

"Are you looking for me or chatting with Qiaoqiao and the others?"

"Ah," Wei Yingluo came to her senses after hearing Li Mu's words, and hurriedly put down the spoon and said, "I have temporarily drafted a charter for what you told me the day before yesterday. Are you suitable for it?"

As she said that, she took out a stack of square paper from her sleeve and handed it to Li Mu. Li Mu took it casually, and there seemed to be a scent of orchids on the paper. He glanced at Wei Yingluo and thought to himself, this girl had changed her perfume again, and it was obvious that the day before yesterday was still the fragrance of roses.

Bai Qiaoqiao and Jin Chen also exchanged their eyes. In the past few words, two messages were revealed. Others may not sound noticeable, but for women, they are very sensitive. First of all, Wei Yingluo called Li Mu and used "you" instead of "marquis", which shows that the relationship between the two people is already very blurred. This situation shows that the relationship between the two people has unknowingly become one step closer.

Also, she said what she said the day before yesterday, which shows that the two met in private the day before yesterday. Whether it was Bai Qiaoqiao or Jin Chen, the four words "I don't know" came from each other's eyes. The two girls were both angry at each other. What do you want to do with a fickle husband?

Li Mu was in Wei Yingluo's charter, but he didn't notice the exchange of eyes of the two women and knew nothing. If he knew, he would definitely complain that he was wronged. God can tell me that he had found Wei Yingluo in private, but it was really for the sake of business. He asked Wei Yingluo to draft a charter, which was about tax collection. This time he was cheated by these merchants. With such a big loss, he could not break his teeth and swallow it. Therefore, he had to draft a charter and make up for the losses this time through tax collection.

This charter was written by him and Wei Yingluo according to his wishes. Of course, it was not about to be implemented immediately, but was gradually boiled into his frogs, slowly letting merchants fall into his net.

"It's great. You can take it back, copy it, and send it to Chang'an in my name for eight hundred miles. After all, it's a big deal, and you still have to ask Your Majesty."

Wei Yingluo responded, took the paper, and was about to get up and leave. She couldn't sit still. Bai Qiaoqiao was better, and Jin Chen's eyes were like a knife, which made her mind confused. This was the effect of her heart. Jin Chen was always gentle, not like Zhang Tianfeng's popularity. When she was a human being, she never had a "knife". It was because Wei Yingluo had a ghost in her heart that she thought so.

Seeing that she was about to leave, Li Mu politely spoke out to keep him. Wei Yingluo dared not stay any longer. She walked quickly as if she ran away with a red face. As the footsteps gradually faded away, Jin Chen couldn't help but ask, "Is your husband going to take another wife?"

"Oh," Li Mu brought the chicken soup that Wei Yingluo hadn't finished. He drank it in one sip and said, "Don't learn to be so stingy. I don't care. The girl still wants to find her husband's family." After a pause, Li Mu sighed again, and said, "Zhien and Sister Ou are still unknown. The family cannot be reunited yet. How big is my heart to do the job of finding another room?"

Jin Chen thought he was wronged and hurriedly said, "Husband, I don't mean this--"

"Oh, you and my husband, don't need to explain much." He said to Bai Qiaoqiao again, "But in this regard, you still have to learn more from Qiaoqiao. If you Qiaoqiao, she will never misunderstand me."

Bai Qiaoqiao couldn't help laughing, but also followed Li Mu's words and said, "Yes, I understand my husband's mind best."

Li Mu smiled and said, "You two rest first. I'll go to the front yard to work hard. I won't go out in the afternoon. If you have any questions, please tell me to go in front and call me."

Bai Qiaoqiao responded, Li Mu got up and left. Jin Chen sent him to the door, walked away, and hurriedly came back and asked, "What Qiaoqiao, tell me, what is your husband's mind? Why can't I understand it? He means, will he not find another room? Is that what he meant?"

"Oh--" Bai Qiaoqiao sighed and said helplessly to Jin Chen, "What is our husband like? You don't know at all?"

"What's your husband?" Jin Chen thought for a while and said, "Honey, value love and friendship, is very good to us, what else?"

"Forget it," Bai Qiaoqiao saw that Jin Chen really couldn't understand it, so she had to explain to her, "Don't guess, let me tell you. My husband means that he won't accept it now, but when Zhien and Sister Ou are found, the family will be reunited, but it won't be certain."

"Ah? That's what it means?" Jin Chen looked confused and pouted unhappily. "Why is your husband like this? It makes people angry."

"If you are not fickle, you are not our husband. Oh, your stomach is so swelling..." Bai Qiaoqiao stood up with the table. Jin Chen hurriedly stood up behind her to protect her, afraid that she would fall. "Slow down." She helped Bai Qiaoqiao sit down by the bed, and couldn't help asking, "Qiaoqiao, there is something I can't figure. In other words, we, those who come in the door, dare not say anything, but you don't dare to say anything, but why do you never stop me? If you don't agree, your husband will definitely not do anything."

Bai Qiaoqiao smiled and said, "If I stop you, won't you block your door, sister?"

Jin Chen was embarrassed when he heard this and said, "I, I...ah, that's right." He felt embarrassed as he said that, but Bai Qiaoqiao didn't make fun of her, and said, "

"Ah——" Bai Qiaoqiao sighed and said helplessly to Jin Chen, "What is our husband like? You don't know at all?"

"What's your husband?" Jin Chen thought for a while and said, "Honey, value love and friendship, is very good to us, what else?"

"Forget it," Bai Qiaoqiao saw that Jin Chen really couldn't understand it, so she had to explain to her, "Don't guess, let me tell you. My husband means that he won't accept it now, but when Zhien and Sister Ou are found, the family will be reunited, but it won't be certain."

"Ah? That's what it means?" Jin Chen looked confused and pouted unhappily. "Why is your husband like this? It makes people angry."

"If you are not fickle, you are not our husband. Oh, your stomach is so swelling..." Bai Qiaoqiao stood up with the table. Jin Chen hurriedly stood up behind her to protect her, afraid that she would fall. "Slow down." She helped Bai Qiaoqiao sit down by the bed, and couldn't help asking, "Qiaoqiao, there is something I can't figure. In other words, we, those who come in the door, dare not say anything, but you don't dare to say anything, but why do you never stop me? If you don't agree, your husband will definitely not do anything."

Bai Qiaoqiao smiled and said, "If I stop you, won't you block your door, sister?"
