Chapter 108 Enemies meet on a narrow road
After Mo Lengzhou dealt with the traitor and the Li family, it was late at night and a breeze brought a hint of coolness.
Thinking of his new wife, he quickened his pace, feeling anxious that he would have a warm home in the future.
I could see the lights in the house from a long distance away. It was no longer like before when it was pitch black when I got home at night.
When he pushed open the bedroom door, the light from inside the room illuminated her quiet face.
Her dark hair spread out on the pillow, so gentle that it made his heart beat faster.
The corners of her lips curled up slightly as she fell asleep, as if she was enjoying something sweet even in her dream.
Mo Lengzhou's heart, which had been lonely for a long time, softened in an instant, and all his fatigue and irritability disappeared at this moment.
He approached slowly, afraid of disturbing her sweet dream, and sat gently on the edge of the bed, staring at the familiar face, his eyes full of tenderness.
Being stared at with burning eyes, anyone with a little martial arts skill would be alert, let alone Lu Zhitao who has been struggling in the apocalypse for twenty years.
She had woken up when the man first came in, and she knew everything about dealing with the traitor and the Li family.
And she was very satisfied, so there was no need to discuss those topics in the middle of the night.
Do something else!
Unfortunately, she had her period and couldn't be intimate with him, so they just stared at each other when they woke up.
It would be very embarrassing to sleep in the same bed and stare at each other, so Lu Zhitao continued to pretend to be asleep.
Mo Lengzhou was so focused on watching that he didn't notice that the person on the bed was awake.
Sometimes he stroked her nose, sometimes he gently pinched her cheek, sometimes he gently stroked her long hair...
He couldn't stand it anymore after watching and touching each other, so he immediately got up and took a cold shower.
Hearing the sound of splashing water, Lu Zhitao rolled over on the bed with laughter. Fortunately, she was smart enough not to open her eyes.
Hearing the footsteps, Lu Zhitao immediately lay down motionless. When Mo Lengzhou sat down beside the bed again, a cold air rushed towards Lu Zhitao.
Mo Lengzhou saw that the person on the bed seemed to feel the coolness on his body and turned over in his sleep.
He immediately stood up and used his internal energy to circulate throughout his body. After he warmed up, he reached out and gently lifted a corner of the quilt and quickly got in.
Seeing that the person on the bed was not awakened by him, he stretched out his left arm to cushion her neck and stroked her hair with his right hand.
The touch of his fingertips was like a spring breeze, warm and delicate. This peaceful time made him feel at ease.
He murmured softly: "Wife, no matter how busy I am in the future, I will never let you be lonely."
"Yeah... yeah..." Lu Zhitao was so moved that she closed her eyes and responded to him, then turned around and snuggled into his arms.
"Haha... look at you, you can't even sleep properly." Mo Lengzhou laughed and scolded softly.
He was afraid that the person in his arms would be woken up by him, so he patted her back gently, just like his mother patted his back to soothe him to sleep when he was a child.
At this moment, he had only one thought in his mind, which was to protect this warmth forever.
Lu Zhitao was patted by the man until she was drowsy and soon fell asleep. But how could she sleep with Mo Lengzhou's sweet and soft body in his arms!
The images of his parents in his memory involuntarily emerged in his mind.
My father at that time was handsome, courageous and talented, but he always seemed to be driven by the burden of mundane affairs.
Busy with court affairs all day long, the little boy noticed the fatigue in his father's eyes.
For the sake of court affairs, he had to neglect his mother and often missed her gentle call and affectionate gaze.
He recalled that painful memory...the moment before his father and mother were taken to the imperial prison.
There was a hint of helplessness and regret on his father's handsome face. He stretched out his slightly trembling hand and grabbed his little hand.
The strength in his fingertips revealed his inner despair, "Zhou'er, I'm sorry, you have to rely on yourself from now on!"
His father's voice was like a broken wind chime, carrying with it an indelible regret. "For the sake of the people of Nanzhao, I never spent enough time with you and your mother..."
Every word was like a sharp blade, piercing deep into his heart and drawing blood.
His mother gently warned him, "Zhou'er, when you leave the capital with your uncle this time, don't ever come back. Glory and wealth are nothing more than that."
He could feel the heaviness of his father's "I'm sorry", as if it were an invisible shackle that bound his soul.
As his thoughts surged, the branches swayed in the moonlight, as if he was struggling internally. But if he listened carefully, he could not hear any rustling sound.
For the past twenty-two years, he has tried hard to forget his past, but the more he tries, the clearer it becomes.
He had struggled and been confused. Ever since he met his young wife, what he wanted most was to leave here.
Although she didn't say it, he knew she wouldn't want to stay in this mountain valley.
The moonlight outside the house shone through the window lattice onto the floor, reflecting their shadows hugging each other. From now on, he was no longer alone.
Zuo Kexin and her daughter, who usually loved to stir up trouble, and the Li family all left Mojia Village.
The remaining villagers are much more harmonious. No longer are they instigated by someone, causing you to dislike me and I to dislike you.
There is meat, vegetables and rice in the village, so everyone gets along well and the atmosphere is relaxed and happy.
Because Zuo Shiyi Niang, her daughter, and Li Gouzi had escaped, the elders were very worried, fearing that they would bring people to attack the village.
This is also the main reason why Mo Lengzhou decided to let the Li family leave. There is no difference between one traitor and ten traitors.
The elders arranged for young people to patrol the village entrance in groups every day. While Gongxi Leqing was recuperating at home, he discussed countermeasures with Mo Lengzhou every day.
Xiaoli knew that her master was having her period, so she didn't allow Lu Zhitao to go out and get cold.
Help her serve tea and water, "Girl, just lie in bed and keep warm. If there is anything new, I will come back and tell you immediately."
"Housekeeper, I'll listen to you, okay?" Lu Zhitao teased Xiaoli with a smile.
In fact, she really didn't have time to go out for a stroll, so she used curiosity as an excuse to get a handful of rice from Mo Lengzhou.
Because Mo Lengzhou was getting busier and busier, she quietly hid at home and entered the space to ripen the rice.
She ripened that handful of rice countless times, and in just a few days, she had stored 100,000 kilograms of grain in her space.
After the Li family was blindfolded and thrown out of the village, they met Zuo Kexin and her daughter who were wandering in the mountains.
It's really a narrow road for enemies to meet. The daughter of the Li family has been bullied by Zuo Kexin since she was a child.
Her brother and cousin both liked Zuo Kexin very much, and they often played tricks on her for her sake.
But she was afraid of the village chief and the elders, and usually did not dare to argue with Zuo Kexin. Now she finally had the opportunity to stand up and take revenge.
"Oh, Zuo Kexin, you traitor, weren't you following Miss Song to enjoy the good life? Why are you here with the northwest wind?"
"Who do you think you are? How dare you challenge me? Do you believe I will kill you right now?"
