"Brother Li, what are you busy with?"
Seeing that Mu Lige returned to his room after breakfast, Hua Qingcheng came to see him. At this time, Mu Lige was busy with his back to the door.
"Just a few more stitches."
Hua Qingcheng walked closer and saw that Mu Lige was actually making clothes, and they were pink and purple. Wasn't this the fabric that she and Mu Lige had bought at Lingqing Cloth Shop before, the fabric that he had personally picked out for her?
"Brother Li, what is this?"
Hua Qingcheng previously only knew that the original owner had squandered all the family's money on eating, drinking and having fun, and Mu Lige could only supplement the family income by weaving, embroidering and making clothes for others. Now that she saw with her own eyes that he had made clothes for her, she was still quite shocked.
It didn't feel awkward at all to see such a handsome man picking up an embroidery needle. Instead, it gave people a sacred feeling, as if what he was sewing was not clothes, but beautiful clouds in the sky crocheted by fairies.
"Okay, Qingqing, try it now."
Hua Qingcheng was not pretentious. She took the clothes that Mu Lige handed over, closed the door, and started changing with her back to him.
This woman is really... as bold as ever! Mu Lige secretly watched him, the wife of Meng Lang from the country of female supremacy, with the corner of his eyes. His cheeks were slightly hot and his ears were slightly red. When she wasn't paying attention, he quietly swallowed his saliva.
"It suits you very well."
Seeing Hua Qingcheng changed her clothes, Mu Lige stood up and came over to help her tie her belt.
Mu Lige had crafted a pink and purple brocade dress with narrow sleeves, which fitted Hua Qingcheng perfectly, making her look sharp and effortless. The pink and purple color complemented her fair skin, showcasing her delicate and graceful features, while the narrow sleeves were designed to facilitate her movements. The entire outfit was not only elegant in design but also exquisitely crafted, making it a beautiful sight without interfering with her daily activities.
"Brother Li, I didn't expect you to have such great skills! You're not inferior to the embroiderers and tailors out there. No, you're probably even better."
Hua Qingcheng's lips curled up, her eyebrows curved, and she looked at the clothes with great satisfaction, praising them sincerely. She was particularly fond of the small words "Qingqing" and "Brother Li" embroidered on the left and right cuffs of the clothes by Mu Lige.
"Qingqing, as long as you like it."
Seeing that she liked his work so much, Mu Lige curled his lips into a smile and looked at his little wife lovingly.
Then Mu Lige took out two pairs of cloth shoes from the cabinet and handed them to Hua Qingcheng. These were the shoes he made for Hua Qingcheng using the soles he had bought before.
"Brother Li, you..."
"How come you're so nice?"
Mu Lige was still a little pregnant, so her belly wasn't noticeable. Hua Qingcheng placed her shoes on a chair, gently wrapped her arms around Mu Lige's waist, and rested her head gently in his embrace. This outstanding man always gave her endless surprises. How could Hua Qingcheng deserve this?
Mu Lige gently embraced his young wife, who had thrown herself at him. In the past, even a glass of water would be served. Su Mu Lige had never imagined that one day he would lower himself to cook, weave, and embroider clothes for a woman. But whenever he saw her knowing smile, he felt content and at peace.
The two of them cuddled for a while, quietly enjoying this beautiful moment that belonged only to them. A moment later, Hua Qingcheng slipped a silver note worth one hundred taels into Mu Lige's hand.
"Qingqing, what is this?"
Mu Lige looked at the silver note that Hua Qingcheng handed to him, his hand holding the silver note tightened slightly, and he felt a little uncomfortable.
"Of course it's for household use. Brother Li, keep it well."
"But, didn't you just give it to me before? I still have dozens of taels left!"
"Then save it. I'm sorry, Brother Li. I originally wanted to rebuild the old house so you could live more comfortably, but now I'm afraid I'll have to postpone it for a while. The weather is still hot right now, and I'm thinking of opening a shop in the county where I can sell ice cubes and cold drinks. Even if the weather turns cooler, I can still open a hot pot restaurant or something."
Hua Qingcheng held Mu Lige's calloused hands, feeling a pang of distress. Men from the Laifeng Kingdom were supposed to be pampered, but her first husband, Mu Lige, had spent six years in the Hua family, having suffered greatly for his former owner. And since she came, she hadn't been able to give him a carefree life.
"hot pot?"
Mu Lige looked puzzled.
"Well, it's similar to the antique soup, but the taste is richer. You'll know after you get to know your brother."
Hua Qingcheng wanted to take advantage of this period to make some money. After all, she had several husbands to support, and the original owner's parents had been very kind to her, so she should be filial to them. Now there was also an old grandfather in the family, and soon she and Mu Lige's child would be born, so there would be plenty of places to spend money.
Next, we need to buy oxen, carriages, and open a shop, all of which cost money, so building a house can only be postponed temporarily.
"A mountain is not famous for its height, but for the immortals who inhabit it. A river is not magical for its depth, but for the dragons who inhabit it. This is a humble room, but my virtue is fragrant."
"Qingqing, it doesn't matter where we live. What matters is that I have you."
Hua Qingcheng smiled even more when she heard this. Her doctor was really good in every way and was always so gentle and considerate.
"Brother Li, I'm thinking of hiring the farm work out to the villagers and leaving it to Grandpa's supervision. Xiaotian will take care of the household chores, and Xiaobai will be in charge of guarding the house. Erlang is good at math, and Sanlang is intelligent, so I want them to help run the shop. What do you think, Brother Li?"
"Okay, Qingqing, if you have a plan, just go for it."
If all else fails, we still have him. It won't starve the whole family.
only……
"Qingqing, what about me?"
Seeing that she had made arrangements for everyone in the family, even the little tiger, but forgot about him, Mu Lige asked in confusion.
"Brother Li, of course you are the finance minister of this family. From now on, I will give you all the money I earn."
Hua Qingcheng put her arms around Mu Lige's neck and kissed him on the lips.
"Qingqing, it's right to cultivate capable assistants. You should delegate authority when it's time. After all, a person's energy is limited, and it's impossible to do everything personally. While those in high positions should have a broad range of knowledge, they don't have to be proficient in everything. As long as you utilize talents wisely and use them for your own benefit, you can achieve twice the result with half the effort and accomplish great things."
"Brother Li is right!"
He knew people well and appointed them to the right posts, was open-minded and willing to accept advice, and was broad-minded and tolerant. Hearing Mu Lige's words, Hua Qingcheng was secretly amazed. She had never expected that her doctor had such a broad mind and bearing.
At this moment, Hua Qingcheng felt that the man in front of her seemed not to be the husband of a country woman, but a king with a heart as vast as the mountains and rivers in his eyes. He was so courageous and dazzling.
