After Li Lin left the river with Li Fu and Zhao Mingjing, they went up the mountain, wandered around the orchards, and then went deep into the mountains. After sunset, the group came back with the prey they had caught.
Li Fu went back to the small courtyard where he lived, left the pheasant to make chicken soup for Shi Huiqin, and sent the rest to Jingpingyuan, where he would go to Jingpingyuan for dinner in the evening.
Shi Huiqin's face was paler than before, and she slept more during the day. When she got up occasionally, she would bask in the sun in the yard. Now she was sitting under the eaves, watching Li Fu rush in and out, her His face was very bad.
"I heard that there is an extra person around your cousin, named Zhao Mingjing. You should pay more attention and work harder to perform well. Don't let him get the upper hand. In the future, your cousin will only see him and not you. ”
When Shi Huiqin learned that Li Fu could study with Li Lin, she was also excited. She wished she could hold Li Fu there and hold the man tightly so that she could get more in the future.
Although she didn't achieve her ultimate goal, it was obviously a big improvement.
After knowing that there was another Zhao Mingjing beside Li Lin, she started to go crazy again, and even asked Li Fu to find a way to take Zhao Mingjing away or kill him so as not to argue with Li Fu.
Fortunately, she went crazy in this courtyard, and Li Fu didn't bother to pay attention to her.
"Hurry up and get that Zhao Mingjing away, lest he rob you. Your cousin has gone too far. Since he has already taken you, why would he bring someone who came out of nowhere?"
"And the one in Jingpingyuan, you should also be careful. Don't get too close to her, and don't let Zhao Mingjing please her."
Regarding Su Wan's existence, Shi Huiqin gritted her teeth with hatred, because this man got everything she wanted most, whether it was birth or the person she married, she couldn't get it.
She was very concerned about Su Wan, so she was very conflicted. She wanted Li Fu to please Su Wan, and felt that if Su Wan liked Li Fu, Li Fu would be able to go more smoothly in the future, but she also didn't want to see Li Fu She was nice to Su Wan and felt that Li Fu had betrayed her.
"You must behave better at your cousin's place. You must not let that boy named Zhao take the lead..."
She was chattering away, and Li Fu was busy in and out, ignoring her at all.
Seeing that her mouth was dry after talking, he poured her a glass of water. His face was still calm and cold, as if he didn't hear what she said at all.
This made Shi Huiqin feel angry: "Why drink some water? I'm not thirsty. Did you hear what I said? Why are you so unsatisfied? This is your cousin. He has nothing to do with Zhao Mingjing. Who is he?" Is it worthy of fighting with you for something?"
"Ah Fu, you have to remember that it is best to follow your cousin. As long as you behave well, everything will be yours in the future. Ah Fu, you have to remember."
Li Fu lowered his eyes and still did not speak.
He understood what Shi Huiqin meant. If he had worked hard in his previous life, things might have been possible, but this life was different.
After Li Lin married his wife, he would definitely have a decent heir of the Li family in the future. Naturally, everything in the so-called Li family would not belong to him. No matter how outstanding he was or how hard he worked, it would all be in vain.
His mother was always whimsical. She couldn't get what she asked for, but she wanted him to scheme for other people's things, without even thinking about whether he had the qualifications to do so.
As for Zhao Mingjing's identity, he had some vague guesses, but he was not very clear, but it had nothing to do with him.
"Afu! Did you hear that?!"
Li Fu raised his eyes lightly: "I made chicken soup for you. You can drink some later. I went hunting in the mountains with my cousin today and got a lot of good things. I asked them to take them to Jingpingyuan. I will take them to Jingpingyuan later." I will go over to have dinner with my cousin and aunt, and I will ask grandma to help prepare some of your meals."
Hearing this, Shi Huiqin's face twisted again: "Send it to Jingpingyuan? Why send it to Jingpingyuan? And eat with her? Do you want to please her?"
"I tell you Ah Fu, I am your mother, whatever good things you give her, bring them back!"
Look, this person said that he was asking him to please others, but in fact, if he gave her a prey, she would be angry and jealous, and her heart would be twisted with jealousy.
Li Fu didn't know what to say.
"Didn't my mother want me to please my cousin more? It's just a few prey, so what does it mean?"
Shi Huiqin choked for a moment, then yelled sharply: "That's something you can't give. You can't give it! Why should I give her my things? Why should I give them to her! Take them back and take them back!"
Li Fu felt very tired. In his previous life, he had been brooding over his mother's untimely death for many years, but in this life, she had lived for half a year longer, but she had exhausted him. He felt that even leading the army to fight and govern the country was not so tiring.
"Mom, you are tired. I will help you go back to rest."
"I'm not tired! I'm not tired!" Shi Huiqin refused, grabbing Li Fu's hand and saying hard, "Ah Fu, you must remember, you must listen to me, you must listen to me!"
"I am your mother. I wish you well and will never harm you!"
Li Fu thought to himself, you do hope for the best from me, but you are more afraid that it is because of your own selfish desires. You can't get what you ask for, but you want your son to take possession of other people's things, as if you are possessed by a demon.
Li Fu ignored Shi Huiqin's explanation and struggle, and helped her back to her room to rest. Then he went to Shi's house again and asked Zhou to help cook more of Shi Huiqin's meals, and then went to Jingpingyuan.
At this time, Li Lin and Zhao Mingjing were talking in the Guest Garden.
Li Lin looked at Zhao Mingjing, who was sitting at the desk and had been reflecting for a long time but didn't know where he went wrong, with a dull expression.
He put down the book in his hand and asked him: "But do you want to understand where you went wrong?"
Zhao Mingjing thought for a while, then shook his head, stood up, bowed his hands and saluted, and asked, "Student, I don't know. Please clarify my doubts, sir."
Li Lin's finger traced the edge of the book, and his tone was calm and emotionless: "Want to be a loner?"
Zhao Mingjing was even more puzzled when he heard this.
Li Lin added: "If you want to be a loner in the future, there is nothing wrong with it. But I think, sir, no matter what position a person is in, whether he is a commoner or an emperor, he can never be alone. of a person.”
"A person should have relatives and friends, good teachers, and people who have supported me through the journey together. You and Afu are now studying together with me, which can be regarded as a classmate."
"I have given you a difficult problem. Although I want you to find your own way to complete it, I do not require you two to complete it independently and cannot help each other."
"Mingjing, you are older than him. If you are in need, you should take care of him instead of just minding your own affairs no matter how difficult he is."
