Chapter 064 You are even more evil than a black shop
After hearing what Lin Siyan said, the rest of the Li family put down their bowls, as if Li Mumu was going to poison them.
Li Mumu raised her eyebrows. If she didn't want to drink, then forget it. If she got infected with the plague, they would beg her for help.
She stopped trying to persuade him, but took her brothers to give some to the yamen runners. If all the yamen runners died, it would be difficult for them to reach the place of exile, and even if they did, they would not be able to explain themselves.
Zhang Xiang didn't doubt it and drank it all in one gulp with everyone else.
"Don't worry about drinking. How could Mumu harm us?" Li Yuan looked at Lin Siyan with displeasure. "Don't be so picky about food."
"I...I really don't believe that she is so kind." Lin Siyan said aggrievedly.
"I believe Twilight, she's my daughter."
Although Li Yuan spoke righteously, Li Mumu was not someone who could be easily fooled. The reason he said that was because he watched the yamen runners drink.
Moreover, she was also very clear that her scumbag father said this on purpose for her mother to hear, but unfortunately her mother didn't hear it at all.
Li Mumu also brought a bowl of medicine to Xie Xun, "Drink it."
Xie Xun frowned slightly, but still drank it all in one gulp, and then his handsome face wrinkled with bitterness. However, he saw a hint of obvious disgust in the little girl's eyes.
He instantly controlled his expression and appeared much calmer.
Li Mumu laughed childishly.
On the other side, the aroma of lunch wafted in the air, making everyone's mouths water. Xie Xun was no exception, but a man must keep his word. Thinking of what he had said to the little girl, he looked away shyly.
As he gradually came to his senses, he discovered a problem. Although Li Mumu's surname was Li, she seemed to have always been with the Gu family with her mother, and her relationship with the Li family seemed very tense.
As smart as he was, he also guessed that the relationship between the two families seemed to be very tense.
Li Mumu saw his awkward look of wanting to eat but feeling embarrassed. She had brought him by her side, so why would she mind him eating a single bite?
What's more, the crops in the land in her space are about to have a good harvest, and the little he eats can't even compare to what she can harvest.
Old Master Gu looked at the delicious meal in front of him, then at the young man resting under the shade of the tree. He said in a deep voice, "Since he's following us, we can't let him go hungry. Yu'er, go get that kid some food."
Gu Yu was very obedient. He put down his own bowl and went to deliver food to Xie Xun, but he didn't want to be rejected.
Gu Yu's face fell, and he felt a little ashamed that he had not completed the task assigned by his grandfather. You know, his grandfather was the person he respected the most.
Gu Yu pouted and said a little aggrievedly: "Grandpa, he said he is not hungry."
"What are you talking about? How can you not be hungry?" The old man frowned and spoke a little loudly.
He really wasn't targeting Gu Yu, but Gu Yu didn't know that and actually cried out of grievance, "Grandpa, it's all Yu'er's fault. I didn't complete the task you assigned to me, wuwu."
Mrs. Gu was heartbroken and glared at her husband in anger. The old man's scalp was also tight, "Why are you crying? I'm not crying for you."
"Grandpa, let me go." Li Yunchao said.
"Brother, let me go. He definitely won't eat it if you guys deliver it." Li Mumu sighed. The brat is small but he is quite strong-willed.
But she didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that her grandfather had some special attention to Xie Xun.
Although my grandfather is not a rough man, he is not meticulous either. Today he checked Xie Xun's injuries three times and asked himself about his recovery twice.
Li Mumu didn't plan to ask directly. If her grandfather could tell her, he might have done so directly. But since the person was someone her grandfather cared about, she would just take care of him.
Li Mumu not only brought the food for Xie Xun but also came to him with her own bowl.
Xie Xun still said the same thing, "Take it back, I'm not hungry."
Li Mumu nodded, "I didn't tell you to eat it."
Xie Xun's face suddenly turned red.
Just now, from a distance, the aroma of the food made him swallow his saliva. Now, the little girl was eating with relish less than three feet in front of him. No matter how strong his endurance was, he couldn't stand it anymore.
"I'll recover a bit, and then I can make my own food tonight. Since you said you won't eat your food, I definitely won't eat it."
Li Mumu took the time to give him a thumbs-up, "You keep your word, what a man! A true hero!"
After saying that, she continued to eat with big mouthfuls, but she looked very pretty while eating.
Seeing this scene, Gu Yuru was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, "Mumu, what's going on... I'll go get her back."
But just as she was about to stand up, she was stopped by Mr. Gu, "No need, I think Mumu's trick is effective."
The young man was so proud that it took extraordinary methods to persuade him.
Now that Mr. Gu has spoken, the others will wait and see.
While eating, Li Mumu praised how delicious the food Song Qiang cooked was. Then, seeing the way she ate, Xie Xun swallowed his saliva again.
Although Li Mumu was small, she had been very active that day and her appetite was bigger than that of an ordinary child. After finishing a bowl of rice, she burped and then her eyes fell on the other bowl of rice she had brought.
Xie Xun was staring at the food when his eyes met hers. He quickly looked away and said, "If you're not full, eat this too. I'm really not hungry."
Li Mumu made a face. "Are you still not hungry? I can hear your stomach growling from two miles away. You've already swallowed five times. If you don't eat now, you'll have to wait until night."
"Then let's go eat tonight. I keep my word." Xie Xun said stubbornly.
He knew that life in exile was not easy, the Gu family didn't have much food, and the Li family could only survive on the handful of rice given by the yamen runners.
Because she knew he had such thoughts and was a man who would repay a favor, Li Mumu was willing to tease him, "Eat it, and pay me back later along with the medical expenses. This bowl of rice is worth one ounce of silver."
"One tael of silver?" Xie Xun's voice rose a little.
Li Mumu smiled slightly, then nodded, "You're very confident and have recovered well."
"Ahem~" Xie Xun cleared his throat awkwardly, "You want one or two ounces of silver for this bowl of rice?"
This is even darker than a black shop.
Gu Yuru also felt that something was wrong. "Mumu, stop arguing with your brother. Mumu was just joking with you. Eat it. I don't want your money."
Li Mumu shook her head, "Mom, I'm not kidding. Is one ounce of silver a lot for a bowl of rice?"
It's not that she's stupid, she just doesn't realize what time it is.
I can’t buy food even if I have money.
Seeing Xie Xun's headache caused by the little girl's anger, Old Master Gu laughed out loud and whispered, "It has to be Mumu again."
Amidst everyone's puzzled gazes, Xie Xun actually picked up the bowl and began to eat with big mouthfuls.
Li Mumu turned around and blinked at her grandfather, "Cousin, keep the account, Xie Xun owes me one or two taels of silver."
