"Yueyue, are you hungry? Mommy will come back to cook for you."
Li Mengyue wanted to say no, but seeing Li's red eyes, she swallowed the words of refusal that were on the tip of her tongue.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, mother."
"It's not hard. I feel very happy that I can cook for Yueyue."
Seeing that the expression on her mother's face did not seem fake, Li Mengyue followed behind, leading the horse, and headed towards the Li family's house.
"Hey, did you see that? Miss Yue is leading a horse."
"Hiss... If you hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have noticed."
"My God, how much does a horse cost? The Li family already has a carriage and mules, and now they have another horse."
"It seems that Yue girl has made a lot of money recently."
"What's the matter? Did you make less money or something? You can't stand seeing others doing better than you. Let me tell you, Miss Yue can afford to buy a horse, and it's not your business to gossip about her. If I find out who is gossiping about her behind her back, don't blame me for tearing her mouth apart." Zhou Juan said in a bad tone.
"Zhou Juan, what are you talking about? We all know how much Yue has contributed to our village. If it weren't for Yue, we wouldn't have enough to eat this year, and we don't even know if we could survive."
"Yes, we are not the kind of people who repay kindness with enmity, so how could we possibly gossip about the Li family?"
"I can't tell anyone else, but I won't."
"Hey, am I the only one who noticed that there was someone on Yue's horse?"
"He's injured, and the smell of blood is strong."
While the women in the village were gossiping, Li Mengyue and Li had already returned home.
Li hurriedly brought water for hand washing.
"Yueyue, wash your face and go back to your room to rest. I'll cook for you."
"Okay, mother."
“Hmm—”
Li was about to go into the kitchen when she heard an unfamiliar voice and turned around to look.
“Ah, blood…blood…”
"Mom, don't be afraid. This is the girl I saved on my way back."
Hearing that it was her daughter who saved the person, Li, who was originally terrified, quickly walked to the side of the horse.
"Yueyue, let's put her down quickly. She will be very uncomfortable if she keeps staying like this."
"good."
Li Mengyue carried Qingning down from the horse's back and headed towards her room.
There were just enough rooms at home, so Qingning had to live in the same room with her for now. Fortunately, her bed was big enough to accommodate two people.
"Yueyue, the new house is ready. We're just waiting for you and your dad to come back and see when we can move in."
Hearing Mrs. Li talking about the new house, Li Mengyue suddenly remembered that she had asked her father to arrange the construction of the house two months ago, and she had also provided the design drawings.
It's just that she has been very busy recently, and when Master Ma wanted the design drawings and saved the cost of building the house, she didn't take it seriously.
Whenever there was anything going on, it was always her father and Master Ma who were involved. But up to now, to be honest, she has never even been to the new house.
So Li Mengyue put Qingning on the bed and went to the new house.
As soon as I got closer, I heard someone talking inside the door.
"The land here is still a little rough. Boss, can you take someone to clean it up?"
"Okay, Dad."
"I think it would be a good idea to dig a pond here, plant some flowers and fish next to it, and build a grape trellis. In the summer, you can sit on a lounge chair and it will be so comfortable and relaxing."
"Dad, what you said makes me want to live here."
"Just you, what are you thinking? This is Miss Li's house, but after this is finished, I want to modify our house."
"Really?"
"Well, it depends on whether Miss Li is willing."
"I do."
