Chapter 184 The Little Mute is on Strike (4)
Chapter 184 The Little Mute is on Strike (4)
When Shu Fanli heard him say this, she felt a little guilty.
She was digging just now and didn't pay attention.
So he lowered his head and made an sorry gesture.
"Okay, next time, be careful and don't act alone. Don't say I didn't warn you, there are tigers here, be careful they might eat you in one bite."
Of course, Mu said this to scare Shu Fanli. There are no tigers here.
Hearing this, Shu Fanli looked around and shrank his neck. Seeing this, Mu Lai chuckled and said, "You won't dare this time."
"Okay, I just saw some herbs up there, go over and pick some, just dig around me."
Shu Fanli nodded.
The two returned to their original spot and then walked a little further up.
When I returned to the Mu family, Wu Guihua was cooking.
When Mu Dashi saw the two men coming back, he asked them to put their things down and wash their hands.
He was just about to call Mu Lai and ask them to come home for dinner, when Mu Lai and Shu Fanli came back.
"I'm back just in time. Your mother is cooking. I wanted to give you a call."
Speaking of this, Mu Lai also remembered something.
The little mute has no phone.
He made a note in his mind and decided to buy a phone for the little mute next time he went to market.
The two of them stood in front of the faucet and washed their hands, squeezing some detergent. After Mu Lai finished washing, Shu Fanli was still playing with bubbles, so he went to the kitchen.
"Mom, the little mute and I are back."
Wu Guihua was reaching out to take something when Mu Lai handed it directly to her.
"Okay, let's eat right away. Go wash your hands first."
"I'm done." Mu came and saw that his mother had just started cooking and it would take a while for her to finish cooking, so he said, "I'm going to take a shower first."
The voice gradually faded away, and Wu Guihua didn't hear what her son said, "What."
When I didn't hear a response, I knew the person was gone.
"This boy."
Then the sizzling sound of cooking could be heard.
Mu Lai came out of the kitchen and glanced at the faucet. Shu Fanli was still playing with the bubbles in her hand. He said helplessly, "Little mute, stop playing and go wash your hands first."
Mu Dashi heard the voice and took a look. He found Shu Fanli still standing there, and said, "Ali, wash your hands quickly."
He was about to say something to Mu, but he saw Mu coming with a bucket of water to take a bath, so he stopped talking.
When Mu Lai came out of the shower, he subconsciously looked towards the faucet again.
Mu Dashi saw it and laughed.
Mu Lai heard the sound and scratched his head.
Mu Dashi said, "Ali went to the kitchen."
When Mu Lai heard this, he went to the kitchen.
When he was at the kitchen door, he heard his mother say, "Ari, we don't need your help. Sit down and have some tea."
As he said this, he chased the person away, "Go away, you are getting in my way by standing here."
After hearing this, Shu Fanli had no choice but to leave.
I just turned around and ran into Mu Lai.
The two looked at each other, and smiled at each other amid the smoke and the sizzling sound of cooking.
Mu Lai stepped aside and let the person pass.
After the person passed, he followed behind them.
Mu Dashi saw Shu Fanli coming out of the kitchen and was about to ask her to drink some water, but then he saw Mu Lai following closely behind her.
Mu Dashi suddenly thought of the dog he used to have at home.
When he saw them coming back, he always stuck out his tongue and wagged his tail. For some reason, Mu Lai at this moment reminded people of that dog.
A dog that protects both its food and its owner.
Sadly, that dog is no longer with us...
As the sun sets, smoke rises from the cooking fires.
The aroma of cooking is everywhere.
After dinner, Mu Lai took Shu Fanli for a walk.
At this time, when everyone had finished their meal and were coming out to digest the food, Mu Lai was walking on the country road and greeting some uncles and aunts in the village.
The content of the greeting is nothing more than——
"Alai, take the kid out for a walk."
"Have you got a meal yet?"
"Where are your parents? How are they?"
"..."
The two of them walked along and finally arrived at the ridge of the field, where there were not many people.
Mu Lai glanced at Shu Fanli's hand hanging naturally at the side of his leg, and pretended to pass it by as if he didn't care. Just as he stretched out his right hand, Shu Fanli moved.
Mu Lai quickly retracted his hand, looking as if nothing had happened.
She pointed at the sunset in the sky, her eyes sparkling.
Her long and thick eyelashes cast some shadows on her eyes like a fan, her skin was as white as ice and snow, her black hair was blown by the wind, her eyes were clear and clean with clear black and white, and there was a faint smile on her lips, which were as beautiful as jade and as clean as snow.
Mu Lai followed the direction of her finger and saw a fiery cloud at the end of the sky, which seemed to dye half the sky red. It was very beautiful.
And under the sky, the person in front of him was particularly good-looking.
Mu Lai curled his fingers slightly and engraved the little mute in his eyes and in his heart.
This moment was extremely long, so long that he carefully depicted Shu Fanli's smile with his eyes, remembering every detail deeply in his heart.
In the future, when Shu Fanli is not around for a long time, he will always think of his vibrant youth when the little mute stood on the edge of the field and smiled at him.
Such a beautiful smile.
It's so eye-catching.
It seems that this moment is eternity.
......
After coming back from a walk, Shu Fanli went to take a shower, and Mu Lai took a long time before washing his clothes.
When Shu Fanli finished taking a shower and was about to wash clothes, Mu Lai was still washing clothes.
She glanced at his bucket. There were no bubbles anymore, so he must have finished washing. But she didn't know why he hadn't wrung it out and hung it up.
As if he noticed the gaze, Mu Lai washed much faster than before.
Shu Fanli poured in detergent and then added water, soaked the clothes and left.
She went to dry her hair.
Mu Lai controlled the urge to wash clothes for the little mute.
The little mute was white, fragrant and soft, and her clothes must have been fragrant and soft too, unlike his clothes.
As soon as he stretched out his hand, he immediately retracted it.
Why does he look like a pervert?
He never had this problem before!
Thinking of this, Mu Lai slapped himself.
There was still water on his hands, and when he patted his face, half of his face was also wet. He then casually wiped it with his sleeve.
The clothes had been washed long ago, he just wanted to wait for Shu Fanli to wash them together.
After wrung out the clothes and poured out the water, Mu Lai was ready to hang the clothes out to dry.
At this time, Shu Fanli came out after drying her hair.
She silently started washing clothes.
Mu Lai was still hanging clothes after a long time, and Shu Fanli glanced at him.
There are only two pieces of clothes that haven’t been hung up yet?
Mu Lai hung up his clothes and quickly went into the house.
After not seeing anyone come back for a long time, Mu Lai went out of the house to check again.
Seeing no one in the yard, he called out, "Little mute."
"What are you yelling about? You're just sitting at the door."
A voice came from the door. It was Ms. Wu Guihua turning back to scold Mu Lai.
Mu Lai shrugged and moved a stool to sit at the door.
After sitting for a while, his eyes always fell on Shu Fanli intentionally or unintentionally.
Seeing that the person didn't react, he just looked at him casually.
Mu Lai was staring at Shu Fanli, when he suddenly saw Shu Fanli turn his head, he turned his head stiffly and saw Shu Fanli pointing at the green fluorescence in front with a faint smile on his face.
Mu Lai was a little absent-minded, then he looked at the fireflies not far away and said, "It's summer now, the fireflies are out too."
"After a while, there will be a lot of fireflies. You will probably like them very much."
Shu Fanli nodded, as if expecting something.
Mu Lai looked at the fireflies gradually increasing in number, and also looked at Shu Fanli's very happy expression.
So he said, "Look at you, you must have never seen a firefly. I'll catch one for you."
Shu Fanli nodded. She just felt it was very wonderful.
Mu Lai took Shu Fanli to catch fireflies. Mu Dashi and his wife smiled and said, "They are still children."
Mu Lai slowly approached the firefly with his hands, and Shu Fanli followed behind him very carefully.
He quickly caught the two fireflies between his hands.
At this time, his hands were overlapped together, forming a space in the middle. Mu Lai motioned Shu Fanli to come and look.
"Little mute, look, this is a firefly."
Shu Fanli leaned over to look, and saw the firefly inside through the gap in the middle of her hand.
The fireflies' tails are flashing like stars.
Shu Fanli blinked.
She looked at Mu Lai.
Mu Lai nodded. These fireflies accompanied him throughout his childhood summers.
The children in Xiaohe Village grow up with fireflies in the summer, just like the starry sky that covers their lives from birth to the present.
At this moment, the two of them were just like playful kids.
He let the firefly in his hand fly away, and then let Shu Fanli catch fireflies by herself to look at.
Shu Fanli nodded. She looked to the lower right and saw a firefly resting on a leaf.
After watching Mu Lai's demonstration, she quickly caught it too.
Shu Fanli closed one eye and looked through the gaps between her fingers, and Mu Lai also leaned over to look.
The two were very close to each other at this time.
Their heads butted together.
Breathing is within reach.
Realizing how close they were, they both tilted their heads back a little at the same time.
I don't know when my hand loosened its grip and the firefly flew away.
Mu Lai coughed lightly and said, "Let's go, there are mosquitoes here."
He slapped his thigh as he said this.
Shu Fanli nodded.

next day
The morning sun climbed up the sky, appeared from behind the mountains, and the bright sunshine scattered everywhere.
Shu Fanli went out with two pots of tea, which were prepared by Wu Guihua. She asked her to take them over and see if Mu Lai needed any help.
Having said that, Wu Guihua also knew that Mu Lai would basically not let Shu Fanli do anything.
Shu Fanli brought two pots of tea, one big and one small, and walked towards the Mu family's fields.
When we were almost there, someone blocked the way.
"Hey, little mute."
Shu Fanli walked straight past him without paying any attention.
The boy walked up to her, blocking her way.
"I'm calling you, didn't you hear me? Are you deaf?"
The person who spoke was the village chief’s youngest child, Wang Xin.
He is also a bad boy in the village. He doesn't like reading and writing, and just likes to play in the mountains and rivers.
He had been in town for some time and just came back the day before yesterday. After he came back, his playmates told him that a little mute had come to the village. She was very beautiful, even prettier than Li Shan.
Like a fairy.
Of course Wang Xin didn't believe it, saying that the other person had never seen the world. So he had to come and take a look.
Shu Fanli wanted to go around from the other side, but Wang Xin saw through her intention and blocked her way before her.
Wang Xin's straw hat completely blocked his vision, so he couldn't see what the little mute looked like.
She was about to reach out and take away the straw hat that was obviously too big for her.
Shu Fanli seemed to notice it, took a step back and looked up at him.
The face under the straw hat was also revealed to Wang Xin.
Wang Xin looked at the little mute's face from a close distance, was stunned for a moment, and swallowed.
The little mute has very white skin, as white as snow, with clear and bright eyes and delicate features. Perhaps because of the hot weather, her fair face has a light pink color due to the temperature. Her expression is also very cute, and she is very beautiful.
Wang Xin couldn't help but take a step back.
He opened his eyes wide and felt that the person in front of him really looked like a fairy. No wonder they all said so, saying that Mu Lai was so lucky.
"Little mute, are you really Mu Lai's wife?"
After staring at Shu Fanli's face for a long time, Wang Xin coughed lightly and said, "Can you be my wife?"
"I'll buy you nice clothes and let you eat meat every day. I'm the village chief's son. I'll buy you whatever you want."
No wonder they said that Mu Lai was reluctant to let this little mute do anything. With such a fairy-like person, who would be willing to let her do any dirty or tiring work?
At this time, Wang Xin was very jealous of Mu Lai.
How come he is so lucky? All good things happen to him.
Shu Fanli seemed not to hear and just walked forward. Wang Xin followed her and kept talking.
A voice came from a distance, "Little mute——"
Mu Lai waved his hand, "This way."
Shu Fanli saw someone in the distance and went over there.
Wang Xin saw that no one was paying attention to her, but when Mu Lai called her, she went over. She felt embarrassed and reached out to stop her.
"You will definitely be better as my wife than Mu Lai's."
"Little mute, you are so beautiful."
As he spoke, Wang Xin's hand was about to touch Shu Fanli's cheek.
Before he could touch it, he was kicked to the ground with his face thrown onto the fragrant earth.
Wang Xin raised his face and spat a few times, spitting out the dirt in his mouth.
"Who dares to attack me? Do you want to die?"
He looked behind him and saw Mu Lai sneering at him.
Seeing that it was Mu Lai, Wang Xin's expression changed several times, and finally he said, "Mu Lai, why did you kick me?"
Mu Lai sneered, "How dare you ask me who you are going to touch with your dirty hands? If you don't manage it well, I'll chop it off and feed it to the dog."
Wang Xin was startled by what Mu said, "I just said hello to my sister-in-law, nothing else."
After saying that, he immediately ran forward.
The speed was so agile and quick, as if someone was really trying to chop his hand with a knife from behind.
Mu Lai looked at Shu Fanli and said, "Little mute, you haven't been bullied, have you?"
Shu Fanli shook her head.
"If someone bullies you, tell me and I will beat him to death!"
Shu Fanli smiled and took out a small knife hidden in his pocket.
Mu Lai saw the knife and smiled, "That's it, just do as I taught you."
This small knife was given to Shu Fanli by Mu Lai, who also taught her how to hit people and how to defend herself.
Mu Lai saw the little mute at first sight, and then he saw that there was another person following her, so he immediately ran over as fast as he could.
Luckily it arrived in time.
"Then Wang Xin is just out of his mind. Don't bother with him. He won't dare to come near me next time. Don't worry."
