Found a loyal dog

Mu Xiong hired several carpenters and helpers, and within a day built a simple cabin next to Murong's house.

Since Murong doesn't give her a chance, she will create one herself.

The small wooden house is next to Murong's house, and the wall of Murong's house can be touched by opening the window.Because he only intends to live here temporarily, the wooden house built by Murong is very small, just enough to accommodate Mu Xiong alone.A bed, a table, and a few pots, nothing else. The house is really barren, and it can't be compared with her previous house.

But Mu Xiong didn't dislike her at all, she had done all kinds of hard and tiring things, so what is this little bit of suffering?What's more, all the suffering is worth it.

With hope for the day, the mood naturally improved accordingly, Mu Xiong got up and washed, the first thing he thought of was to knock on the door of Murong's house, so that he looked familiar.As a new neighbor to say hello, Murong must not ignore her this time.

A woman's excited face was reflected in the water, and Mu Xiong put the washcloth aside.Because she disdains maintenance, her skin is not white enough, and it feels rough to the touch, and her hair is even more dry and hard.

... In this way, Murong doesn't like it, right?

Murong is such a beauty-loving person, he even has a deep research on rouge and gouache. Compared with a crude and careless woman like her, he must prefer the kind of delicate Xiaojiabiyu, right?

Mu Xiong couldn't help but feel down, but she remembered that Murong said before that she looks good when she smiles, so overall she's not bad, right?She also has a place to catch Murong's eyes.

Mu Xiong stared at the people in the water for a while, and then rummaged through the boxes, finding nothing as expected.She drew her sword and played a few fancy tricks in the air, the sawdust fell off, and an unremarkable chopstick was whittled into a hollowed-out hairpin in the blink of an eye.Although not gorgeous, but at least more pleasing to the eye.

Simply pulling his hair, and then inserting the freshly baked hairpin on his head, Mu Xiong took several times of photos before and after the face wash, and finally straightened his head, with a stiff smile on the corner of his mouth.

Mu Xiong seldom smiles, she is used to keeping all her worries in her heart, no matter whether she is happy or sad in her heart, on the surface it looks calm.After a long time, Mu Xiong even forgot how to laugh.

She tried several times and was ugly, and her facial expression was too unnatural.

The woman in the water frowned slightly, but her eyes were full of longing for praise from the person she liked. If you look closely, you will find an inconspicuous blush on her cheeks, and her whole body exudes the breath of spring.

It's like a man dressing up to meet his sweetheart, nervous and looking forward to it...

Mu Xiongba|Throwing the hairpin aside, the other hand reached into the basin, disturbing the reflection in the water, his cheeks were astonishingly hot, and he scolded himself: "nervous."

She went out to blow off the heat from her face, and happened to meet Murong who was leading Mu Shao to go out.

Today is Qixi Festival. This festival is highly valued by young people both in ancient times and in modern times. Every year at this time, the town will hold lantern festivals, various delicacies and juggling.After Mu Shao recovered from her illness, she kept arguing to go, but Murong couldn't resist her, so she finally agreed.

Murong invited Wang Qi to be with them, the lantern festival was lively, and walking around might relieve Wang Qi's grief and depression.

But Wang Qi refused: "There are couples of mandarin ducks there. When I go there, I will think of all the things I used to do with her. It will only make me sad, so I don't want to go."

He said that Murong was embarrassed to persuade him.

When the two met each other, the first thing Murong noticed was Mu Xiong's loose hair. This kind of bold and unrestrained style of letting go of himself was not like what a well-behaved Mu Xiong would do.

Mu Xiong was nervous for a while, how decisive he was when he threw the hairpin, how much he regretted it now.Her hair is disheveled, which is too detrimental to her image in Murong's heart.

"Good morning, have you eaten yet?" In order to divert Murong's attention, Mu Xiong took the initiative to say hello.

"Hmm." Ignoring will only make you more tightly entangled, after Murong learned his lesson, he decided that those who can answer with one word will never use two words, and those who can answer with a nasal sound will never open their mouths.

"But I haven't eaten yet." Mu Xiong looked at Murong expectantly after finishing speaking.

Murong's face was expressionless, and he cherished words like gold: "Oh."

Mu Xiong lowered his eyes in disappointment.

Mu Shao looked at Mu Xiong curiously with big watery eyes, Mu Xiong smiled at her lightly, and Mu Shao grinned accordingly.

It was already afternoon when they arrived in the town. After taking a nap in the teahouse, they walked slowly along the street to the center of the town.The Lantern Festival is the busiest at night, but from the evening onwards, the number of people gradually increased, although not to the point of rubbing shoulders, but it was not much better.

Mu Xiong has been leaning sideways, quietly protecting Murong's side.

Mu Shao came to the Lantern Festival just to eat, and when he got out of the tavern, he would drool over the roadside stalls.Murong bought a bunch of boiled bean puffs, broke off the pointed end of the bamboo stick and handed it to Mu Shao. Mu Shao held the lower end of the bamboo stick with both hands, and stuck the string of bean puffs to Murong's mouth. Said: "Mother, eat."

Murong bit the top one, there were four bean puffs in a string, Mu Shao waited for Murong to finish eating, grabbed the stick and moved down, looked at Mu Xiong: "Eat."

Last night she was so burnt out that she couldn't remember the rest of it, but Wang Qi told her that it was Mu Xiong who saved her, thanks to Mu Xiong's lightness kung fu, otherwise she might have returned to the west.

Children are very forgetful, she has long forgotten that she played a prank on Mu Xiong and caused Mu Xiong to fall into a puddle. After listening to Wang Qi's words, she only thought that Mu Xiong was cool and powerful, and thought that this person could fly. See There was a trace of admiration in Mu Xiong's eyes.

Mu Xiong hesitated for a moment, but in the end he couldn't match her expectant gaze, he stretched his neck over Murong and bit a piece of bean soak.

When the warm body behind him approached, Murong froze for a moment.

Mu Xiong seemed to have just washed her hair, the scent of soap locust lingered in her nose vaguely, a few strands of hair drooped and swept across her neck, slightly itchy.A lump of the soft part was sticking to her back, the touch was so clear, as if all the blood in her body had gathered there, making that piece extremely sensitive, and even when she left, she could feel the fine elasticity of that lump.

Murong looked left and right, didn't look at the location, and walked quickly to the distance: "There are a lot of people there, I don't know what it is."

Killing Murong would never have imagined that she, who is articulate, would find such a lame excuse to cover up her gaffe one day. After saying this sentence, she herself felt that it was too fake.

However, the stupid Mu Xiong didn't see it, and believed it. He followed her gaze and suddenly realized: "It's a wishing tree. It is said that it has lived for hundreds of years. Put the paper with the wish in it into the sachet, and put it in the bag. The sachet is hung on the tree, as long as you are devout enough, your wishes will come true."

It was a towering tree with luxuriant branches and leaves, a thick trunk and light blue leaves in the shape of a heart, Murong couldn't guess what kind it was just from its appearance.

The lower part of the tree is covered with red sachets, which look like bright fruits, and the golden tassels dance with the wind with the leaves, which is really beautiful.

Where there is demand, there is business. Two or three peddlers are selling sachets under the wishing tree with big wooden boxes. Seeing Murong walking towards them, they take it for granted that they are here to make wishes. A peddler who happens to have no customers immediately smiles. On the ground to sell: "Miss, come to make a wish? Look at my sachet, it is big and cheap, I guarantee you will make a wish after you buy it."

"Want to make a wish?" Mu Xiong came over and asked, before Murong could answer, he paid for three and put two of them in Murong's hands.

The hawker sent two half-finger-long square papers, and the brushes can be borrowed.

Standing under this tree, Murong felt a strange sense of peace in her heart. She wanted to believe this kind of rumor once in her eyes, which was cheating money. She took the brush, thought about it, and wrote down her wish.

Mu Shao didn't know how to write, so she said silently in her heart, "I hope my mother can be happy every day, I hope I can have a lot of delicious food every day", then pressed a paw print on the paper, and stuffed the paper into the sachet Here, give the sachet to Murong.

Mu Xiong hung up the sachet, and seeing that Murong had just hung up her and Mu Shao's, he couldn't help asking: "What wish did you make?"

Murong didn't speak.

Mu Xiong didn't ask any further questions, and took the initiative to talk about himself: "I hope to live in harmony with the person I like in the future."

After she finished speaking, she looked straight at Murong, her eyes were blazing, and the meaning in it could be understood even if she didn't say it.

The dark fragrance floats, and the leaves rustle, playing a beautiful nocturne together, softening the atmosphere around the body.The face of the person in front of him was firm with never regrets, and his affectionate eyebrows and eyes made people want to be intoxicated and never wake up again.

Murong's heart skipped a beat.

In fact, in all fairness, it is tantamount to a dream for a person who has been straight for so many years to suddenly turn curt, not to mention that Mu Xiong said at the beginning that she likes men. Mu Xiong.

Mu Xiong may also be a little moved by her, but it's unrealistic for her to accept it right away.In her open era, straight people had to struggle a lot when they turned crooked, not to mention the conservative ancient people?

However, everyone understands the truth, but once you put it on yourself, you will lose your mind.

If you can keep your reason, it is not called emotion.

No one is right or wrong, it is normal for Mu Xiong to be confused for a while, if she is not so impatient, and takes her time and persists for a while, then the relationship between the two of them will not be so embarrassing now.

Murong sighed: "What exactly do you want?"

"I..." Mu Xiong was so nervous that he couldn't speak a complete sentence. He spun a few simple words in his mouth several times but couldn't come out.

Murong waved his hand: "Forget it, pretend I didn't say anything. Let's go."

When she said that, Mu Xiong became anxious, gritted his teeth, and yelled out all the words in his heart: "I like you!"
