Meng Li didn't expect that Lu Mu, who always had keen senses, didn't see such a living person like her, nor heard her words.
She even wondered if he was blind or deaf.
Meng Li trotted and stood in front of the man.
"Lu Mu, you didn't hear me when I was talking to you."
Lu Mu pursed his lips and took a step forward without saying a word.
Meng Li was caught off guard and was bumped by him, almost causing her to stagger.
How do you feel that he is deliberately playing tricks on her?
"Lu Mu!"
Lu Mu squeezed her again.
"Ms. sir, husband." Meng Li was helpless, a little angry, and confused.
Moreover, it was broad daylight and it was the street. The two of them looked like this, and many eyes were turned over.
Lu Mu then stopped and looked down at him: "What do you want from me?"
"Let's go sell things together."
"If you drive me away before we get there, then what's the point of me going."
Only then did Meng Li realize that he was thinking about what happened just now.
"Okay, okay, whatever I ask you to follow me in the future, let's finish it and come back together. There's nothing important. I won't ask you to leave midway. It's my fault. I'm sorry."
Meng Li apologized to him sincerely. Although she didn't think it was a big deal, she didn't want to get angry with Lu Mu.
She lived to be in her thirties in her previous life, and knew that everyone cared about different things, and respected and tolerated each other.
Lu Mu twitched the corner of his mouth with a smile.
"Where to go?" he asked.
"Go to Wu's house."
The Wu family is the wealthiest family in Qingshui Town. Some members of the family are officials in prefectures and counties and run several businesses.
Lu Mu reached out and took the basket Meng Li was carrying.
This basket contains more than a dozen kinds of high-end snacks, each of which is small in quantity, but adds up to a heavy amount.
Meng Li smiled secretly.
"I thought some people were really cold-hearted and would still care about me."
"We are husband and wife after all. I don't want others to think that I do the heavy work for you." Lu Mu said.
Meng Li always had to draw a clear line and keep a distance from him. He didn't want her to think that he had any thoughts about her. Wouldn't he lose in that case?
Meng Li: "Oh."
Lu Mu's brows twitched. What does her word "oh" mean? That indifferent attitude made him feel slightly uncomfortable.
"The matter has been explained, just wait."
"Okay, as long as my second brother can study well, tuition is not a problem."
Meng Li thought of her eldest brother again. He was obviously a cheerful and cheerful person. Ever since he was insulted by the Zhang family, sometimes his expression always looked a little heavy.
Who doesn't want to be respected and admired by others? Even if you can't do this, you'd better be laughed at and eliminated.
Seeing that Meng Li seemed worried, Lu Mu couldn't help but ask, "Do you have anything to say?"
After asking, he felt a little regretful, why did he ask this question.
He discovered that occasionally his mood would fall into a complicated and intertwined contradiction, not about taste, but about gains and losses.
When did you feel this way? He couldn't tell clearly.
Meng Li shook her head because she thought that her eldest brother had said that her favorite thing was to fight on the field.
Whether she wants to change and how to change in the future depends on her elder brother. If she has good ideas, she can give him guidance, but now she doesn't.
The wealthy families in the town all had large courtyards where they could come in and out. When the concierge saw two people carrying a basket, he came out and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Meng Li said: "Old man, we have some snacks that we have developed ourselves. Children like them very much. If you have young masters and young ladies at home, you can buy some for them to try."
When the old man heard that he was here to sell food, he looked impatient.
He waved his hand and said: "Go, go, go, the young masters and ladies usually eat too much. They have all the high-end snacks bought from the capital, and they can't finish them all."
Meng Li frowned and saw an eight or nine-year-old boy running out of the hanging flower gate and poking his head at the main entrance, his eyes curiously staring at the contents of their basket.
This little boy was born with a tiger-like head, black eyes, and fair skin. He was very cute.
Meng Li took a high-end chocolate and threw it to him.
The little boy took it, took a good look at it, saw that it was a snack he had never seen before, and then peeled off the wrapping paper.
"Aiya, Third Young Master, Madam has warned you not to eat food from strangers. If something goes wrong, I can't afford it here."
The old concierge was anxious and quickly stopped him.
The third young master took the chocolate and ran away. He had short legs, but he was very flexible when running.
The old man and the young boy were in the front yard, and I had to catch them.
Meng Li chuckled: "You said, children are quite interesting, right?"
"You like kids."
"I like it. Children are so cute. It makes me happy just to look at them."
There was also a little smile in the man's eyes.
The third young master bit into half of the chocolate while running.
Suddenly his round eyes widened: "Woo, ow, it's so delicious, so delicious. Lao Zhou, please stop chasing me. If I fall, I will tell my mother that it was you. "
The old concierge didn't dare to chase him anymore. He held his knees and panted, his face turned red.
The third young master also stuffed the other half into his mouth and his eyes were bright as he ate it.
He pointed at the basket: "Their snacks are delicious, I want all the snacks in it."
The old man was a little surprised. There were many children in the Wu family compound, and a lot of snacks were brought in from other places every month, but the children were tired of eating them, and sometimes they would cry because of it.
Several more children ran out from the hanging flower door, both boys and girls, older and younger.
"I want it too, I want it too."
Meng Li was very generous and gave each of them a piece of chocolate. After the children ate it, they all became more interested.
"Finally some delicious snacks."
"If you keep eating those, you will vomit."
An older girl, about eleven years old, already somewhat sensible, turned around and ran into the hanging flower door.
After a while, a beautiful middle-aged woman in noble clothes came out, followed by the little girl.
Seeing the children jumping for joy with a little snack residue on their mouths, she smiled and looked at Meng Li and his wife.
"The children haven't had their favorite snacks for a long time. However, our Wu family has many children. The things in your basket are not enough for them to eat for a day or two. Do you have more snacks?"
"Yes." Meng Li said, "Is more than a hundred kilograms enough?"
"That's enough. Let's get a hundred and fifty pounds first. If the children aren't tired of it by then, I'll buy it from you again," the lady said.
Meng Li did not leave immediately. She said: "It's just that the prices of these snacks are a bit expensive because the materials used are not easy to come by and the craftsmanship is complicated. One box costs three taels of silver."
