Chapter 184
As time goes by, the salt movement has taken shape, and Cuiming people are fully committed to salt production.Of the three people brought by Yu Che from the Central Plains, Zhong De, who studies salt production, is in charge of salt production. The remaining two are Xue Ziguo and Sheng Haiying. , not only to supervise the two, but also to deal with officials in Mobei and buyers in the Central Plains.
Because of Ling Hailan Mo's presence and Li Mu's reason, apart from giving regular gifts to the officials in Mobei and handing over all the silver taels to Mobei City on time, everything went smoothly, and the salt sold was relatively expensive because of the transportation cost. Low, so the price is cheaper than in the south, so buyers are not a problem.
As a result, the salt transportation became more and more smooth, not to mention Cuiming, and other surrounding villages were affected by it. Not only did life become more prosperous, but also more knowledge and knowledge, and things from the Central Plains can be seen everywhere.
It's just that even though everything is developing smoothly, bad things will inevitably happen, and this bad thing is the death of Grandma Tong'er.Tong'er's grandma is aware of her condition, and Li Mu naturally knows that, although she has been able to help Tong'er's grandma with medication on time for some time, the asthma caused by the accumulated fatigue cannot be recovered in a day or two. Besides, Grandma Tong'er is getting older.
Li Mu took Tong'er back home after saving Tong'er's grandmother. Although Tong'er still had a father, he was not around. For himself, Li Mu squeezed Tong'er's hand to comfort her.
Afraid that Tong'er would be afraid of living alone at home, Li Mu invited Ling Hailanmo to accompany Tong'er. When he returned home, Ling Hailanmo was already waiting outside Tong'er's house, and sent Tong'er to the house. After closing the door, Li Mu turned around and saw Yu Che.
"Don't be too sad." Yu Che took Li Mu's hand and said.
The moonlight shone on the grass, and the surroundings were suffocatingly quiet. Li Mu was held by Yu Che without struggling, and the two walked forward in unison.
"Days go by so fast. I thought that I just came here, and almost half a year has passed in the blink of an eye." Li Mu said with a sigh.
"But no matter how life goes, I will always be by your side." Yu Che tightened Li Mu's hand, as if telling him that he would always be there.
Li Mu turned around and looked at Yu Che. Li Mu felt a little relieved by Yu Che's clenched hands, but he was more worried about Yu Che's future. Maybe Yu Che was strong enough to have no obstacles, but as a How can people in this world live without any obstacles? Li Mu thought like this, not knowing how to answer Yu Che, not knowing what he was going to do, and more importantly, not knowing what would happen to the two of them in the future.
Li Mu turned his arms and clasped Yu Che's fingers tightly, then sighed softly, looked up at Yu Che, looked at the handsome face in front of him, this person with many identities, but no matter who Yu Che was , is just one person.
Although Li Mu's cultivation level is still relatively low, the degree of enlightenment is naturally higher than that of Mobei people. In addition, Li Muben likes to read books to comprehend, and with the enlightenment of Master Du Chi at the beginning, his own ideological comprehension is relatively high Some.It is precisely because of this that Li Mu has been treated as someone to confide in. If anyone has any troubles, even if it is a few quarrels between husband and wife, they will come to Li Mu to talk a few words.Li Mu suddenly remembered the man named Ruizhe he healed.
One day, Li Mu was reading a book in the big tent. Ruizhe walked around from the door of the tent, as if he heard something, Li Mu put down the book. one is right.
Ruizhe looked at Li Mu who was holding his forehead apologetically, and Li Mu was a little surprised when he looked up and saw Ruizhe.The two didn't feel embarrassed, and sat down face to face very consciously.Li Mu poured tea for Ruizhe, and Ruizhe lowered his head, wrapped his hands and said:
"Actually, I have something to ask for a teacher." Ruizhe raised his head and took the teacup that Li Mu had poured.
Li Mu looked at Ruizhe who was nervously entwining his hands, and said with a smile:
"Sir, please speak."
"Actually, Xiudong was the one who took the master to see us that day. The master must have known about our relationship. In fact, at the beginning, Xiudong liked women. I later heard that he had a childhood sweetheart at home. We are not in the same village, and we didn’t know each other before. After arriving in Cuiming, I liked him very much at first sight. At first, he just regarded me as a friend. I always pestered him to test him, and finally got together. But these I only found out later that he had childhood sweethearts in the village." Ruizhe lowered his head again as he spoke.
"Then what would Xiudong benefactor say?"
"I didn't ask him. I've been avoiding him for the past few days. I like men, but since he can like women, it's better to get married and have children."
"Although the benefactor is well-intentioned, I'm afraid it's useless." Li Mu said with a smile, "Even if you are together because you like him first, but if you are not in love with each other, even if you always pester him He won't pay attention to you either, so the reason why you are together is the business of the two of you, in this case, it is really inappropriate for you to judge the relationship between the two of you based on other people's words."
"But what if it's true?"
"Since you share the same mind with each other, even if it is true, you will definitely face it together and find a solution."
Thinking back to this, Li Mu stood in front of Yu Che under the vast starry sky. Li Mu felt that he and Yu Che were very small, so small that even if he was with Yu Che, no one would care.Li Mu has always known that all the thoughts he has buried in his heart about Yu Che are things that he, as a monk, should never even think about.
Yu Che is the biggest obstacle on his path of cultivation, Li Mu thought, Li Mu himself knew it, he has always known it, maybe he can endure suffering, endure starvation, endure pain, but only when he meets Yu Che, he can't do anything. I can't stand it, all I can do is suppress my own thoughts, that's all.
"What are you thinking?" Yu Che looked at Li Mu and asked with a smile.
"It's useless to think about anything." Li Mu said, "As a monk, you should practice hard. Master Du Chi's last painting before his death, now that I think about it, I understand a little bit."
"What do you understand? I understand that the waves on the water surface come from my heart. There is no wind around, and even the trees are calm, but the water surface has waves of waves. It can be seen that the people who call and paint are not calm. "Yu Che looked at Li Mu with a chuckle and said.
"You also saw that painting?" Li Mu asked in surprise.
"Naturally, in order to find you, I searched for all kinds of traces, and naturally I saw paintings and calligraphy." Yu Che said, every time he mentioned the time when Li Mu disappeared, Yu Che's expression changed slightly.
"When I was young, every time you left, I would be very sad. I hope you can always be with me. You have given me too many surprises. Every time you want, you will give me. As a child, I just I hope you can stay with me all the time. Looking back now, this kind of thinking lasted until you won the battle in Dongzha. Although I have never seen you standing on the battlefield, I am looking for you On the way, I heard too many people complimenting you, you don’t know how happy I am, only then did I realize that you are not mine alone.” Li Mu said, “You are you like that, It’s just that I’m conflicted in my heart now, I hope you are at peace, but many things are relative.”
"You've been thinking about me, but my life doesn't have you in it, so everything you think about is fantasy. Only with your life can there be other possibilities. I can't even get you. I don't want anything. I don’t even want to do anything.”
"We've been going around in circles." Li Mu chuckled, let go of Yu Che's hand, and walked towards the big tent, with Yu Che following closely behind.
Under the moonlight, the shadows of the two kept intersecting and separating, becoming entangled.
