Li Mo was overjoyed, and he didn't care whether Li Man's remark was true or false, he just felt that if she could say such a thing and ask him to do anything, it would be worth it.
Seeing that he was silent, Li Man raised her head worriedly and asked, "Is it okay? Oil"
"En." Li Mo nodded heavily, she said it would take time to get used to it, how could he refuse.
At this time, Xiao Wu ran back, but it was not Li Shu who entered the door after him, but Li Yan.
Li Manxiu frowned slightly, and then looked back, except for the two of them, there was no one else at all, so she couldn't help but glance at Xiao Wu, why didn't the little guy listen to the big brother
"Third brother didn't find it." Xiao Wu replied simply.
Li Yan also took advantage of Li Mo's silence, and asked first, "Brother, what's the matter?"
Li Mo looked at Li Yan, thought about it, and felt that it might not be impossible for him to accompany Li Man. First, he was more tactful than his third brother. Second, this was also an opportunity for him to resolve the rift between Li Man. vine.
Where is Li Man willing to ask for Li Yan? She hurriedly grabbed Xiao Wu's hand, "Li Yan, you can do your work. It would be nice to have Xiao Wu accompany me. If you don't know the way, we can ask, and it's not far away. .”
"Xiao Wu stays at home, and elder brother also needs someone to take care of him." Li Yan looked at her quietly, "Where are you going? Guo"
"Doctor, by the way, you bring your money and pay for that day's consultation fee." Li Mo said.
This matter has been decided like this, Li Man is a little unwilling, but thinking that having him by his side is indeed better than Xiao Wu, and besides, how dare he be presumptuous when he is outside in broad daylight
So, Li Yan took the silver and put it in his arms, and went out first. Li Man told Li Mo, "I'll go first, and I'll be back soon." Then, she followed out.
Along the way, Li Yan walked in front, and Li Man followed, keeping a distance of about ten feet between them.
After leaving the village, there is a small winding dirt road, with rice fields on both sides, planted with green seedlings, which is quite eye-catching, and there are farmers working in the fields. When they saw Li Yan, many people greeted him and asked him Where is he going, he just smiled and said nothing.
After passing through this piece of farmland, the road is much wider and easier to walk, but there are no villages or shops behind, and it is next to the foot of the mountain. Li Man felt a little uneasy. After all, her relationship with Li Yan was so tense, he would not Why don't you do something to her while no one is there
Besides, didn't it mean that the doctor's house is in a village not far away? But the further he walked, the less he could see the village. Did he intentionally take himself to a place where no one was around
If that's the case, this person is despicable and hopeless, and she will never talk to him again in her life.
Just as he was thinking uneasily, in front, Li Yan turned his head and glanced at her, as if he thought she was walking too slowly, so he stood at the corner and waited.
What is he doing? Li Man also stopped, not daring to go towards him.
"What are you still doing standing there stupidly? Hurry up." Li Yan urged her with an eyebrow.
Li Manmou became even more nervous, and even had the urge to run back.
Fortunately, Li Yan didn't come back to catch her, but gave her a cold look, and walked towards the corner. There was a slope at the corner, with weeds growing all over it, blocking people's sight.
As soon as he was gone, Li Man rushed over. When he reached the corner, he suddenly saw a large expanse of paddy fields and vegetable fields, which made people feel like another village.
Li Yan, on the other hand, had already descended the slope and was walking on a field path.
Li Man patted her heart, thinking to herself that she was overthinking, so she took two steps and hurriedly followed.
Along the end of the field path, and then go up, you will arrive at the foot of the mountain. The first thing you see is a large medicinal field, and the strong fragrance of medicinal herbs immediately rushes to the tip of your nose.
Passing through the medicine field, on a hillside, there are several high-quality bluestone houses shaded by trees, one of which has a smoke-filled roof, as if cooking, and at the door, an old man is shaking something with a dustpan.
"Doctor, you are busy." Li Yan walked over and greeted politely.
When the old man looked at Li Yan, his face darkened immediately, and when he saw Li Man who was following him, his face turned green, and he said angrily, "What are you doing here?"
"She's looking for you." Li Yan tactfully stepped aside and pushed Li Man out.
The old doctor's eyes stared at Li Man coldly, "Stinky girl, what are you doing here? The old doctor doesn't even want the medical fee, what else do you want?"
"We are here to send you the consultation fee." Li Man said with a smile, "Your old medicine is really powerful, and the wound on my elder brother's back has scabbed over."
"Hmph!" The old doctor's face was full of pride and arrogance, "You don't need to say that, the old man's medicine has always worked." As he spoke, he ignored her and tossed the rice again.
This old man is quite vindictive, Li Man pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "Doctor, besides sending money for the consultation, I have other things I want to ask you today, old man."
"Old man? Am I very old?" The old doctor gave Li Man a hard look, and was extremely displeased with her.
On the side, Li Yan didn't say a word, just looked at Li Man indifferently, to see how she would respond.
Li Man didn't care too much. After all, her attitude towards the doctor was really bad that day. She untied the big bag in her hand, pointed to a few small bags of medicine, and said, "Today, I'm here to deliver medicine to you. You see-"
"Medicine?" The old man didn't even lift his eyelids, and said contemptuously, "The most indispensable thing here is medicine. You give me medicine? It's a joke."
"Not only is there medicine, but I also have a prescription here." Li Man smiled, handing a few packets of medicine to him, "Look at it, Tang, anyway, you can't suffer."
"What are you looking at?" The old man glanced at her, but it was also a doctor's instinct. He smelled the unusualness of these medicines, squinted at Li Man, and asked, "What prescription?"
"The other day, I saw your golden sore medicine, and thought of this." Li Man explained earnestly. She didn't know if this prescription existed in ancient times, but it is too common in modern times. It is Yunnan Baiyao, which is a must-have at home." It's just that I don't know how to make medicine, so I'll give you the prescription, and you can see if it works?"
"Do you still know Fangzi?" The old man looked Li Man up and down, seeing the seriousness and confidence in her eyes, he didn't dare to underestimate this fifteen or sixteen-year-old yellow-haired girl, put down the dustpan, and he walked in front to lead the way, "You and I'm going into the house."
"Um."
Li Yan also wanted to follow in, but was stopped by the old doctor, "Do you have medicine too? Don't let me stay outside."
Seeing Li Yan slumped, Li Man was expressionless, but she still couldn't restrain a little pride in her heart, and followed the old doctor into the main room.
—
Li Yan embraced her hands and leaned against the corner of the wall, looking at the blue sky and white clouds in the distance with her evil and deep eyes. After some time, Li Man finally came out. I don't know what she said to the old doctor. When she came out, His old face was smiling like a winter jasmine, and he kept assuring Li Man that it would be nothing to her if the medicine was sold.
"Are you done talking? Can you go back?" Li Yan seemed to be impatiently walking from the corner.
"Damn boy, can't you be more polite to the girl's family?" The old man instantly turned his eyebrows coldly at Li Yan.
Li Yan touched his nose innocently, is this old man a fool? Falling to that girl so soon? He ignored the old man, and asked Li Man with a blank expression, "Will you go?"
"Let's go," Li Man turned her face and said to the old doctor, "Old man, then I will go back first. If you have any questions, you can send someone to Li's house to find me."
"Well, let's go." The old doctor personally sent her out of the door, and saw them go down the hill before turning back.
Li Yan was very puzzled, but he didn't ask anything, he just walked in front of him like when he came here, while Li Man was still more than ten feet behind him.
Because she knew the way, Li Man was not afraid of getting lost, and she was in a very happy mood when she had settled the business with the old doctor. , Look at the little girl who looks happy.
Li Yan stood at the corner and waited for her again, but this time he didn't urge her any more.
Li Man approached slowly, raised her eyelids and only glanced at him lightly, then walked away from him indifferently, and walked in front instead.
Scoff, Li Yan stared at the dangling dog's tail grass in her hand, suddenly felt funny, a yellow-haired girl who was still playing with the dog's tail grass, what was he afraid of? He just cried once, and he didn't even dare to touch it
He rushed up a few steps, not in a hurry, just walking beside her, not letting her get ahead, and not letting her fall behind, but he didn't say a word, just stood by her side abruptly like this, obstructing her. her eyes.
Li Man finally stopped angrily, pointed at the road, "This road is so wide, why do you have to walk next to me?"
"Strange," Li Yan also looked at her, "I didn't get in your way, so you're too lenient?"
Li Man bit her lip and stared at him angrily, "Can you stop being so childish?"
"Good lips, all you bite are teeth marks." Li Yan stretched out his hand, wanting to caress her lips.
Li Man tilted her head, and instinctively slapped him again, but this time, Li Yan was on guard, cut it down decisively in mid-air, held her tightly in his palm, and then slapped her five fingers one by one. Breaking it apart, looking at the slender nails, frowning tightly, "Your claws should be trimmed too."
"Let go of me." Li Man tried hard to free his hand.
Li Yan just didn't let go, and the two of them seemed to be pulling a big saw, "You sent it up yourself."
"I really misjudged you." Li Man's face flushed with anger, and her voice changed a little, "I used to think of you as an upright gentleman, an elegant gentleman, but now I see you are just—"
"What?" Li Yan asked with a smile. Although he knew that she was angry, and the anger was not light, it was strange. Compared with her usual demure appearance, he just liked to see her angry and angry. Little Huomiao's eyes became brighter, and her delicate face with a bit of baby fat was dyed red, making it even more beautiful like peaches and plums.
Let him really want to hold him in his arms and cherish him!
"You're a hypocrite." Li Man's heart sank and she cursed angrily seeing his eyes gradually darkening.
"Hypocrite?" Added another insult, "However, I still like to hear you call me obscene."
"You are shameless!" Li Man scolded again.
Just as Li Yan was about to fight back, he suddenly heard the sound of sand rolling down in his ears, and someone shouted from above, "Get out of the way, get out of the way—"
Step aside? Where can I let it go? When Li Yan raised his head and looked up the mountain, he saw a large piece of rocks falling down like muddy water breaking a bank. There was nowhere for them to hide. Instinctively, he took Li Man into his arms and took her with him. He nestled against the bottom of the slope.
Li Man didn't know what was going on, she was held tightly in Li Yan's arms, her little head resting on his chest, she couldn't see anything at all, she could only hear sand and stones rolling down her ears.
Is it a mudslide? she guessed.
But, fortunately, soon, this kind of sound disappeared, and there were hurried footsteps and worried inquiries, "Are you all right?"
Only then did Li Yan let go of Li Man, pulled her up, looked at her with concern in his eyes, "Are you okay? Did you bump into anything?"
Li Man shook her head, she was fine, but when she saw that there was a bloody gash on the back of Li Yan's right hand, she asked in surprise, "Are you injured?"
It was hit by a stone falling from above when I was pulling her just now, "It's just a little bit broken, it's okay."
"I'm really sorry." At this time, the two middle-aged men who came down from the mountain just now said very apologetically, "We were chasing a goat just now, and we accidentally stepped on a pile of stones. I'm really sorry that I hurt you."
Li Yan looked at the stones on the side of the road. The smallest one was as big as a fist. If he hit his head, he would have to die half his life. If you are lucky, if you are really injured, what do you say?"
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. We were too anxious. The sheep at home were lost for two days before we found them, but they came here again." The two quickly explained.
Li Yan waved his hand, "Okay, pay more attention in the future." Then, he took Li Man's hand naturally, and seeing that she didn't bump into anything, he said, "Let's go, let's go home."
"En." Li Man walked beside him, his hand was tightly held in the palm of his hand, very unnaturally, she tried to pull it out, but he held it tightly, as if he didn't feel it at all.
"I'll go by myself." She muttered dissatisfied.
Without moving his eyelids, he casually retorted, "Really? I was almost stoned to death just now."
"It was an accident."
"This road is all against the side of the mountain." It means that accidents can happen at any time.
"I'll be careful."
"Oh, that's good." He snorted, as if he had listened to her words, but he didn't intend to let go of his hands.
Li Man looked at him coldly, feeling really helpless and helpless. He had protected her just now, but he couldn't take advantage of others like this.
"Am I ugly?" She fell silent, and he started to ask.
Li Man shook her head slightly.
"Am I ugly?" Li Yan didn't hear the voice, and turned to stare at her.
"No." Li Man shook her head quickly.
Li Yan sneered, "Am I that bad?"
"Yeah." Li Man nodded honestly.
"I'm bad?" Li Yan stopped suddenly, staring at her with sinister eyes.
Li Man's heart tightened, but she still bravely met his gaze, "Aren't you bad?"
"Heh." He suddenly raised his lips and smiled, "Silly girl, I'm only bad to you."
Li Man was confused for a while, "Could it be that I should feel honored?"
"It's not an honor, but instead of marrying an ugly man who doesn't love you, what's wrong with following me?" Li Yan said with a sigh.
Li Man was angry and funny, "Why should I marry a man who looks ugly and doesn't love me?"
"Do you have a chance to choose?" Li Yan mocked.
"..." Li Man was at a loss for words. She really had no chance to choose. Even if she had the chance to leave the Li family, how would she go about her future
Although she has not been in this strange era for a long time, she also understands that women have no status in this era.
Don't look at Goddess Ditch, the phenomenon of co-wives is very common. There are often several men in a family and only one woman, but this woman's status is still not high. Men only regard women as a tool to carry on the family line.
Seeing her stunned and frustrated expression, Li Yan pinched her nose pityingly and helplessly, and said with a smile, "Okay, just treat me as a bad person, just treat me as a bully. Otherwise, I'll let you Bully back, okay?"
"As long as you don't bully me in the future, I will be thankful." Li Man gave him a hard look.
The smile on Li Yan's lips grew wider, and he squeezed her hand tightly, "Man'er, don't be angry, last night, I really didn't mean it."
Li Man suddenly felt a little cold, and the grains of millet all over his body rose. This man looked rude and not human, but when he was gentle, he was not human at all.
"Stop talking, as long as you don't bully me in the future." She broke free from him and ran forward.
"Little thing, you run very fast." Seeing her long hair flying behind her, Li Yan's chest was filled with tenderness, he raised his feet, and ran after her.
Li Man turned her head, and when she saw him chasing her, she ran even faster.
So, in the fields, the busy villagers saw a man and a woman running wildly. The man was too hateful. Every time the woman ran away, he would speed up to catch up, and the woman screamed in fright. Walking and running hard, it's like a cat playing with a mouse.
Later, someone recognized that this was Erlang from the Li family, and he was chasing his wife.
So, in less than a day, the news spread throughout the village that the Erlang of the Li family was young and hot, and he wanted to have sex with his wife in the fields, but when she refused to do it, he kicked him out.
—
Li Man ran home panting, instead of going to the east room, she went back to the room first, lying on the bed panting hard.
"Little thing." Li Yan leaned against the door, holding on to the door frame with one hand, and looked at him with a blushing and breathless smile.
Li Man suddenly turned her head and glared at him, but suddenly found that after running all the way, most of her anger towards him had disappeared, and even her glaring was not as strong as before. "Oh, take your time, I'll go to elder brother's." Li Yan gave her a deep look, extremely gentle.
Li Man rubbed her arms
Forget about his meaningful eyes.
After her breathing stabilized, she also went to the east room.
Li Yan didn't know what he said to Li Mo, but he nodded and said "yes" repeatedly. Seeing Li Man come in, the two stopped talking, and their eyes fell on her.
Li Man suddenly felt like a mang on his back, "What's the matter? What do you want me to do?"
She anxiously walked to Xiao Wu's side and sat down next to him.
"Sister." Xiao Wu moved the sand table to her, pointed to two lines of writing, and said, "These two lines of writing were written by me and elder brother. Sister, who wrote it better?" He did not point out who wrote which. One line, I just want Li Man to admit it.
Li Man borrowed the opportunity to go down the donkey, quickly changed the subject, and looked at the sand table seriously, "Let me see. They are all good, and they are all written correctly, but if the writing is correct, the above line is slightly better, and the bottom line is better. The stroke of the Li character is a bit out of proportion, and it would be better if it is improved a little."
"Haha." After hearing this, Xiao Wu clapped his hands happily, "Sister, I wrote the above."
"Oh." Li Man actually recognized it a long time ago, rubbed his head, and said with a smile, "It was written by Xiao Wu. It really has improved a lot."
"Hee hee." Xiao Wu smiled excitedly and looked at Li Mo proudly.
Li Mo's eyes are full of love, Xiao Wu can write well, that will make him happier than if he can write it himself.
Li Yan on the side looked at Li Man with his usual smile on his lips, "That's great, you also taught elder brother and younger five how to write? Teach me someday."
"I-"
Li Man was about to refuse, but Xiao Wu was about to jump up excitedly, "Okay, big brother, second brother, third brother, let's learn together then. If you don't know how, I can teach you too."
"See if you can, can you write your own name?" Li Yan stretched out his hand to play with his forehead gently. I just know how to recognize a few words. It's okay to play with him and relieve my elder brother. Teach you, I really can't. "
"Can't you or don't want to? My wife." Li Yan looked at her jokingly, and she couldn't get angry in front of Li Mo and Xiao Wu.
