Although Su Qingluan's expression was not very clear under the hazy moonlight, Mu Xingzhi could still imagine the mocking expression even if he closed his eyes.
He couldn't help but laugh and said, "Even though she knew I did it on purpose, didn't Qingluan still follow my wishes and send me out?"
Su Qingluan rolled her eyes at Mu Xingzhi in annoyance: "What else can I do if I don't take the opportunity to send you out? Are you going to perform a one-man show there?"
As she spoke, she looked Mu Xingzhi up and down: "Don't say it, I feel pity for him."
"Cough cough cough cough cough..." This series of coughs came from Song Bo. He then turned his head to look at Su Qingluan, as if he were some evil demon, "Madam Su, you..."
"Me what?"
"You are really very...bold..." Not knowing what words to use to describe Su Qingluan's "vicious words", Song Bo grunted for a long time and could only come up with this.
Rather, the little girl in front of him was really bold. If he was not mistaken, his boss must have been teased for a moment... right?
Of course, words like teasing should never be uttered even if your mouth is torn to pieces, otherwise you will definitely suffer the consequences.
Su Qingluan accepted it all without hesitation: "Thank you, Uncle Song, for the compliment."
Song Bo was speechless: He was not praising her!
However, Mu Xingzhi did not get angry. Instead, he asked Song Bo to continue pushing the wheelchair. He followed Su Qingluan's instructions and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Madam Su. Come to think of it, my face is quite popular."
Su Qingluan looked at Mu Xingzhi's face, which could be considered pretty at best, and shook her head with certainty: "If you only look at your face, you can only barely rank in the top three in the village..."
This ranking wasn't hers; after all, the young women in the village would often discuss which man was the most handsome when they had nothing better to do. However, Su Qingluan herself admitted that, judging solely by his looks, Mu Xingzhi was still a bit far from being the best.
"Oh? There is a ranking?" Mu Xingzhi was a little curious.
Su Qingluan looked at the man in surprise: "I thought you really knew everything." It turned out that there were things this guy didn't know.
Mu Xingzhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "If I report every detail of the villagers' gossip, I will be punished."
Su Qingluan nodded: "That's true. But that's not the point. The point is," Su Qingluan looked Mu Xingzhi up and down, "compared to your appearance, you have other unique qualities - as for your face, only your eyes are the most outstanding."
"Eyes?" Mu Xingzhi's smile faded slightly, and even Song Bo's movement of pushing the wheelchair paused slightly.
However, Su Qingluan turned her gaze to the night sky, searching for the Big Dipper and the North Star, and did not notice the subtle changes in the two people. "Yes, your eyes. Compared to your other facial features, your eyes are particularly outstanding. I always feel that such a pair of eyes should be on a more outstanding face."
Then she thought to herself that she had been too blunt and that it was a bit inconsiderate to say such things to a friend. So she quickly turned around and apologized, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to criticize your facial features. I just wanted to say that your eyes are particularly outstanding."
"It's okay." Mu Xingzhi smiled and shook his head.
Su Qingluan saw that he was indeed not angry - or rather, since she met "Mu Xingzhi", she had never seen him have any negative emotions such as anger or anxiety, and he always looked calm and composed - Su Qingluan withdrew her gaze.
As long as the person doesn't show anger, it means he or she really doesn't care or doesn't intend to pursue the matter.
However, this episode did make Su Qingluan realize one thing: she became more relaxed and comfortable in front of Mu Xingzhi, and her guard became lower.
This made Su Qingluan feel that it was natural, but at the same time she was secretly alert: Don’t relax too much and tell the secret that should be kept strictly!
As he was thinking this, he heard Mu Xingzhi ask, "What have you been writing today?"
Su Qingluan nodded. "It's Aunt Guixiang's medical record. Actually, it's just the questions you asked the midwife from beginning to end, and the midwife's answers. It's more like a detailed record of the entire treatment process than a medical record."
This made Mu Xingzhi raise an eyebrow in surprise: "Record everything?" If he remembered correctly, the piece of paper Su Qingluan wrote on was only the size of a book, and she only wrote on one side. Even if it was the small regular script with hairpin flowers...
Su Qingluan handed over a piece of paper from her bosom: "Here, you remind me to keep this paper with you. When I come to your place tomorrow, I think you will be interested in the recording method on this paper."
"Just give it to me like that?" Mu Xingzhi took the paper, carefully folded the side with the words inward, and carefully placed it inside his wide sleeve.
Su Qingluan smiled confidently: "Of course I can just give it to you like this, because you can rest assured that in this world, except for me, no one else can understand what is written on it."
As they were talking, they had already reached the intersection ahead. Turning to the side was the Su family, so Su Qingluan turned to look at Mu Xingzhi: "Is it okay to drop me off here?" Without waiting for Mu Xingzhi to say anything, she waved her hand and turned to run towards her own yard.
She also had to quickly tell her family that Aunt Guixiang was out of danger.
Mu Xingzhi watched the small figure disappear completely into the night before turning his gaze forward again and calmly commanded, "Let's go."
"Yes." Song Bo responded respectfully and pushed the wheelchair slowly towards the bamboo courtyard - even without Su Qingluan's help, he still pushed the heavy wheelchair as if it were flat ground, without any pause.
Su Qingluan returned home and told her parents what had happened. Sure enough, Yang was so happy that she immediately thanked the Bodhisattva and Buddha in the air.
Even though Su Guangfu's reaction was not so exaggerated, his face was flushed with joy and he clenched his fists tightly.
The two little guys were almost going to bed, but when they heard the noise outside, they crawled out of bed, put on their clothes and came out to see what was going on.
They were also very happy to hear that Sun Guixiang was out of danger.
Just when everyone was happy, Su Qingluan's stomach made a loud "gurgling" sound.
Yang clapped her hands quickly and said, "Look at my memory! I was so happy that I didn't have time to eat tonight, did I? I've left some food for you in the kitchen. I'll go heat it up for you right away!"
Su Xueyan looked at Su Qingluan's belly and sighed like a little adult, "Sister, your stomach is growling so loudly. It must be extremely hungry, right?"
"Hahahahahahaha..." Everyone, including Su Qingluan, was amused by the little girl's childish words.
Su Qingluan had a smile on her face and thought to herself: Tonight, her family and the Li family next door can finally have a good night's sleep.
