C245 Laying on the Bed
"It's been a long time since I slept with mother." As she spoke, Lin Miaoting moved her body closer to Tang Xuemei's side. Because she knew that Tang Xuemei's body was not well, she did not dare to get too close. She pressed her cheek to Tang Xuemei's neck.
"Mother's body is fragrant. Hugging mother, I feel that Duke Zhou has come to find me." Lin Miaoting instantly felt sleepy and whispered softly.
"En... sleepy, quickly go to sleep." Tang Xuemei stretched out her arm and gently patted Lin Miaoting's arm that was hugging her. As she said softly, it was drizzling. At the same time, she also closed her eyes.
A night without a dream.
Knock, knock, knock...
The knocking on the door woke Lin Miaoting and Tang Xuemei up. After that, Bi Lian's soft call for the door was heard. "Mistress, Madam, are the two of you awake?"
"Come in."
Lying on the bed, Miao Ting lazily stretched her back and yawned while holding her mouth with one hand. Then, she rolled over and rolled into Tang Xuemei's arms again.
"It feels so comfortable being hugged by mother to sleep." As she spoke, she even nudged Tang Xuemei's arm like a kitten.
"Quickly get up, little lazy cat. After a while, Bi Lian came in. Seeing you like this, I see that she is unable to laugh at you." Tang Xuemei rubbed Lin Miaoting's hair. Although she was scolding her, Tang Xuemei's gentle voice spoke out. There was not the slightest bit of threat and it made Lin Miaoting even more unrestrained.
"Understood, mother. Mother, don't worry. Bi Lian will not laugh at me." As she spoke, she looked at Tang Xuemei with a proud expression.
You, if you don't get up, mother will get up. You can just stay in bed by yourself. "
If that was the case, Tang Xuemei really lifted the blanket and got up. She finally understood. If she did not get up, this little girl would definitely be able to rely on her for a day.
"Mistress, Madam, breakfast and washing up water have already been prepared." Separated by the screen, Bi Lian respectfully faced the direction of the screen and said.
"Thank you, Bi Lian."
Because Tang Xuemei got up first, Lin Miaoting did not have any reason to stay in bed. She got up. She walked out in her pajamas.
"Child, the older you are, the more you don't know the rules." Lin Miaoting had just walked past the screen when Tang Xuemei scolded her.
"Mother, we are all girls and Bi Lian has seen me like this before. Don't be angry."
"That won't do, quickly put on your clothes." Tang Xuemei still did not agree. There was no other way, Lin Miaoting could only compromise. Just as she was about to return to the back of the screen, she saw Bi Lian still standing there.
She straightened her expression and asked, "Is there anything else?"
"Reporting to Mistress, Xu Zhu and the others are also ready. They are waiting for Mistress's instructions at any time." Bi Lian held a tray and replied respectfully.
"En, I understand. You should also go and eat."
"Yes, Mistress."
Bi Lian respectfully withdrew and closed the door from outside. Tang Xuemei urged Lin Miaoting to put on all her clothes and then urged Lin Miaoting to wash up and comb her hair. Lin Miaoting instantly felt that there was an extra role of an old mother beside her.
No wonder the former classmates all said that their mother was nagging and wanted to stare at them twenty-four hours a day. She was deeply moved now, but she was also incomparably happy.
After a simple wash up, Lin Miaoting accompanied Tang Xuemei to eat breakfast. After the meal, she told her that they were going to move in the afternoon but needed to make some preparations, so she took her leave first.
When they were about to leave the house, Lin Miaoting could clearly feel a trace of loneliness in Tang Xuemei's eyes. She lowered her eyes and finally closed the door and left.
In the Void Serenity Pavilion, Bi Lian tied Lin Miaoting's hair up high and hung a jade Liuying ribbon.
"Is it because she is a woman?" Lin Miaoting looked at herself in the bronze mirror.
"Mistress, you are the most handsome." Bi Lian smiled and teased.
"Yes ~ Sister Bi Lian is right. Bi Lian, you can stay and accompany my mother later."
"Yes, Mistress."
After changing into a male outfit, Lin Miaoting first borrowed a carriage from Shopkeeper Lin and then led Xu Zhu and the others to the cloth shop. She asked Aunt Lu to help prepare some things first. After that, the two carriages slowly drove towards the two villages.
It was already August. To be exact, it was already August. It should be August of the lunar calendar. It was autumn, and the leaves had begun to turn yellow and hang on the branches. From time to time, two or three children ran out of the village and dug out one or two leaves from a pile of fallen leaves. They reached out and pulled away the withered leaves, leaving the dark brown leaves to play with each other.
"Look, look! Then these two carriages are really imposing."
One of the children was attracted by Lin Miaoting's group's carriage and could not help but exclaim. Hence, it attracted the attention of the elders who were sitting at the entrance of the village and chatting.
"Whose carriage is this? It is so imposing. Could it be that it is looking for that old Lin family?" An elder who was sitting on a rock at the entrance of the village pecked at a cigarette and said.
"Seventh Uncle, that's not it. It's said that our two villages have moved a big shot here. He said that he lives in the depths of Mountain Mang. He even asked people to repair the yard there."
The man sitting next to the old man said loudly, afraid that Seventh Uncle would be too old to hear him clearly.
"Oh, oh, oh. It's like this! I really don't know about this, but... A while ago, my nephew who was on duty at the county magistrate office came to visit. It seems like he said that the Mountain Mang in our two villages seemed to have sold more than half of it. It had already become someone else's territory. At that time, he had even specially told the villagers that his big brother was his big brother. If he were to hunt in the future, he had to be careful. Don't offend the important people. "
"Then should we be more careful when hunting in the future?" Some people beside them also asked loudly.
"I'm afraid so!"
This old man's! In short, the curiosity about who the owner of the carriage was turned into a sense of loss. However, there were still some who were clear-headed. This was because the road in the Mountain Mang was something that ordinary people couldn't enter even if they didn't pay attention to it.
...
Listening to the discussion outside the carriage, Lin Miaoting who had closed her eyes to rest had a cold smile on her face. She, Lin Miaoting, had returned!
"How is the house now?" Lin Miaoting asked.
"Master, I heard that someone is going to pay a high price to buy it recently!" Shuying, who was sitting on Lin Miaoting's left, cupped her fists and replied.
"Oh, high price to buy? This is a little miraculous?" Lin Miaoting suddenly opened her eyes. Her eyes were filled with excitement. She was about to kill her prey.
"Speaking of which, this person has some relationship with you, Young Master. This person is the three big men who stopped you on the street a few days ago. Behind him is the Mistress, Minister Qin."
