Meng Li frowned: "Why, you thought I wanted to steal your things."
Lu Mu just looked at her like this, pursed his lips and said nothing.
"I'm looking for a mirror. Do you have a mirror at home?"
Lu Mu turned around and left the room.
Meng Li patted her heart. There was nothing scary about her. It was just the aura exuding from Lu Mu that gave people an instinctive sense of oppression.
Lu Mu came in again soon, holding a bronze mirror in his hand.
"This is what my mother used when she was alive. She has been keeping it idle. You can use it in the future."
The mother Lu Mu mentioned was his adoptive mother, who died of illness three years ago.
There were some mottled marks on the bronze mirror, but there was no dust at all. It was obvious that Lu Mu had just wiped it.
Meng Li had always been curious about what the original owner's face looked like now, so she held up the mirror.
In the bronze mirror, a face that was so white that there was only skin left appeared, staring at Meng Li with big eyes and small eyes.
"Ghost." Meng Li shook her hand and the bronze mirror fell to the ground with a clang.
She didn't expect that he would have such a distinguished appearance, which was really a bit scary.
She now admires the mental endurance of the Meng family and the people in the village, facing such a face, such warmth, and such enthusiasm.
In fact, think about it, everyone living in this rural village is most concerned about survival. Who has the mind to care about other people's appearance.
But Meng Li was a great beauty in the world she came from, so the comparison is a bit different.
In fact, the facial features are not ugly, the eyes are big and dark, but when nutrition catches up, it may be different.
Slowly, Meng Li felt that it was acceptable again, and whiteness was an advantage. As he improved and gained weight, maybe this face would still be worth looking forward to.
The corner of Lu Mu's mouth twitched, and he leaned over to pick up the bronze mirror.
"Then do you still want this mirror?"
"Yes." Meng Li snatched the bronze mirror into her hand to protect it. She wanted to observe the changes every day.
"Lu Mu, do you think I will become a beauty?" Meng Li asked.
"My wife is the most beautiful woman in the world." Lu Mu replied like a preset NPC.
Meng Li knew that he was perfunctory and deliberately teased him: "Then you should tell me what's so beautiful about me."
Lu Mu: "My lady has a beautiful soul."
Then he went out to help.
Meng Li was speechless. This was really an answer that didn't lie and didn't offend anyone.
As for spiritual beauty, as long as you are not a bad person, you are spiritually beautiful.
When the meal is served, the steaming chicken stew fills the entire kitchen yard with fragrant aroma.
I made a pickled fish dish with the blackened fish I brought over and the sauerkraut pickled in the jar.
There is also a dish of braised eggplant, a dish of smoked bacon and stir-fried vegetables, and a few egg pancakes.
The rice is coarse rice. Father Lu said: "I cooked the rice when I woke up early in the morning. I will eat the big white rice you sent me tonight."
Then he gave Lu Mu and Meng Li a big chicken drumstick.
Lu Mu wanted to take it back to Father Lu, but Father Lu held down his chopsticks.
"You just got married, you eat."
Father Lu felt guilty. Although Lu Mu was picked up, he treated him as his biological son.
I originally wanted to arrange a good marriage for Lu Mu, but unexpectedly, I just sent him to the Meng family in a hurry.
But guilt is guilt, and Father Lu is a little lucky.
This morning I saw clearly the faces of the Zhang family. If Lu Mu didn't go to the Meng family to be the father-in-law, I'm afraid the Lu family would marry the Zhang family.
The conditions of the Zhang family are much better than those of the Meng family, and Zhang Qiaoer is also good-looking, but this kind of family is not kind and it will be uneasy to get along with them.
It doesn't matter if life is a little poorer or more miserable. Everyone in the second room of the Meng family is hardworking and simple. Meng Li has woken up again. She will get better without spending much medical expenses.
So at this moment, Father Lu was more regretting the shabby wedding and wanted to make it up to his son.
After the meal, Lu Mu pushed Meng Li around the house.
As long as Meng Li didn't speak, Lu Mu had nothing to say.
She was going to go into the house to take a nap when she saw her second brother coming from the other side of the field.
Meng Ning held a handful of herbs in her hand and ran to Meng Li's side, panting slightly, with a flush on her somewhat handsome face.
Seeing that his eldest sister was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the evildoer had really been exposed, and his eldest sister felt at ease. That was fine.
"My little sister found enough herbs and took them to Wang Langzhong. Wang Langzhong said it was correct. I will bring them to you, eldest sister. You can decoct them and drink them later."
Lu Mu took the herbs and said, "Brother, have you eaten yet? Let's sit at home."
"Hey, I've eaten. I'm doing carpentry work for someone. It's not good to be away for too long. I have to rush back now."
Meng Ning told Lu Mu: "If something happens to my eldest sister, you must go back and tell your family."
Lu Mu agreed.
"Don't be afraid, sister. If Dawang dares to cause trouble again, if the uncle's family dares to cause trouble again, we won't be as polite as we were this morning." Meng Ning comforted Meng Li again in a gentle voice.
He was still being polite this morning. Meng Li almost couldn't help but snicker when she thought of her eldest brother's imposing manner and how her second brother and three younger sisters were doing their part.
Meng Ning delivered the herbs and left in a hurry.
Lu Mu was going to cook some medicine, and Meng Li said, "Do you think I need to take medicine?"
He thought for a while: "But you were indeed frightened."
Sitting in a wheelchair and being pushed over the edge, it is impossible not to be nervous.
"I was really scared at the time, but I was more thinking about how to deal with it. When the wheelchair stopped, I was never scared again." Meng Li said, "When I go back tomorrow, my family will ask me if I have taken any medicine. Just ask me if I have taken any medicine." Said he had eaten."
Lu Mu didn't force it anymore.
As a village girl, Meng Li was so calm, which was beyond his expectation.
"I saw a bathtub in your room." Meng Li said.
"You need to take a shower."
"Yeah."
The Meng family didn't have this condition. They just brought water into the room and wiped their bodies with a towel when taking a shower. The two brothers could have settled it in the river.
Lu Mu boiled the water, poured the boiling water into the tub, and poured a few buckets of cold water into it. He stretched out his hand to test the water temperature: "It's ready."
Meng Li was sitting in a wheelchair. She originally wanted Lu Mu to get out, but when Lu Mu got out, she couldn't get into the tub.
In the current situation, it is not impossible for her to wait for a few days before taking a bath, but she has been lying down for so many years, and her body muscles need to stretch and move. There are bathing herbs in the space specifically for this aspect, and she will get better faster if she uses her legs and feet. a little.
However, she and Lu Mu had no relationship, so she really couldn't face him without revealing anything.
"Close your eyes and help me when I get better." Meng Li said.
Lu Mu's face twitched slightly. He didn't understand why Meng Li was so guarded against him even though they were a couple.
Does Meng Li really belong to someone? Impossible, she was only eight years old when she became a vegetative state.
However, he didn't want to care about this kind of thing, so he closed his eyes and turned away as she said.
Meng Li rustled and took off her clothes.
