Yang also noticed the movement here and turned around.
Then he said with a look of surprise: "Isn't this Mr. Mu? Why are you in the town today?" Then he looked behind him and said, "Where is Song Bo? Didn't you come with Mr. Mu?"
Mr. Mu nodded and smiled: "Mrs. Su, long time no see."
Yang said embarrassedly: "Hey, what kind of 'lady' am I? I'm just an ordinary peasant woman from the village."
"Mrs. Su has a cheerful and straightforward personality, but there is no need to be so self-effacing."
"Hey, Mr. Mu, you praise me too much..."
Yang smiled and waved her hands repeatedly, but she didn't realize that her question had been ignored without any trace.
But there were some things she didn't ignore.
Yang took Su Qingluan forward and said to Mr. Mu, "This is the eldest daughter I recognized some time ago."
Seeing Su Qingluan dumbfounded, he patted her back gently: "Why are you so stupid? This is Mr. Mu, salute quickly!"
Skinny Monkey was cheering on the side: "Although this little brother is not flexible in his legs, he has a good appearance and a good figure. He looks like a gentle scholar. The girls from the Su family must have taken a fancy to him... eh!"
Secretly receiving a kick from Aunt Yang, the thin monkey grinned in pain.
"What are you talking about?! You're seeking death!" Aunt Yang whispered in Skinny Monkey's ear, gritting her teeth.
The Sheng Dynasty did not have the kind of protection between men and women that Cheng and Zhu Lixue did. Although this level of discussion did not reach the level of "slandering the character" or "slandering the innocence" of ordinary people with a careless upbringing, they casually arranged a little girl Su Qingluan. It is not appropriate to have thoughts about men.
Yang also shook his head quickly: "Oh, you little monkey, you can't do such a joke!" Then he explained to Mr. Mu apologetically, "Don't be surprised, he doesn't have a clue, but it's not that bad. thought."
Mr. Mu didn't care at all and just said: "This little brother must be coming here with a warm heart - I just saw from a distance that he was the one who brought the official here."
Su Qingluan also finished brainstorming at this time, forcing herself to control her toes that wanted to dig three feet into the ground to bury herself, walked forward, and gave a stiff smile:
"My little girl, Su Qingluan, has heard of Mr. for a long time. It's my first time to meet you. It's a great honor to meet him."
As she said that, thinking about other people's actions in her mind, Mr. Chao Mu made a Wanfu gift that she didn't know if it was a standard one - the most common and simplest way for women to salute in this era.
There is no need to kneel down, and there are no complicated movements. However, it is more troublesome than the simplicity of modern social etiquette.
The so-called Wanfu Salute requires standing upright, taking a small step back with the right foot, making fists with both hands, with the right hand on the left hand, located on the lower abdomen, lowering the head and bending the knees, looking at the ground, and then standing up after the salute.
At this moment, Su Qingluan really missed how simple and easy it was to pray for the "handshake ceremony" and "nodding ceremony"!
The young man opposite also nodded slightly and responded with a more casual half-length salute: "My surname is Mu, and my double name is Xingzhi."
The slightly emphasized "first time" in Su Qingluan's tone was because she hoped that the other party would not mention the embarrassing thing about her when they last met.
Who knows that the other party didn't seem to hear her prayer in her heart, but said: "Why does the girl emphasize the word 'first time'? Could it be that I have met the girl before?"
Su Qingluan gritted his teeth because of the first half of Mu Xingzhi's sentence: Why didn't you open which pot?
However, Su Qingluan was stunned when he heard the second half of his sentence, and then secretly rejoiced: Could it be that he didn't remember what happened by the river last time?
Yes! The last time she caught fish, her hair was disheveled and she was covered in water. At first glance, she looked like a version of Sadako who had fallen into the water.
With her hair and face so mushy, who can identify who she is?
At this moment, the feeling of pressing your toes to the ground and running away on the spot, any awkward feeling before suddenly completely disappeared.
Su Qingluan felt that the air was circulating and her breathing was easier. Even the hot sun at noon became lovely!
She raised her business smile again and asked, "Mr. Mu, how many servings would you like?"
Seeing the changes in Su Qingluan's expression, a playful smile flashed in Mu Xingzhi's eyes.
"Two copies." As he said that, he took out the money bag from his sleeve, twisted out a few pennies, and handed it to Su Qingluan.
Su Qingluan did not take it directly with his hands, but picked up the straw box containing the copper plates and handed it over.
Since Su Qingluan was standing and Mu Xingzhi was sitting in a wheelchair, when he retracted his hand, Mu Xingzhi's fingertips slightly brushed Su Qingluan's wrist.
On this hot summer day, Su Qingluan felt like she was about to be roasted into charcoal, and her wrists were no exception.
However, when the young man's pale fingertips passed across her wrist, she felt as if a cold jade stone had suddenly passed through her, making her couldn't help but tremble.
Su Qingluan suddenly looked over: My hands are so cold!
If it hadn't been in broad daylight, and the person in front of her was smiling and speaking gently, she would have doubted whether this was human body temperature!
"Sorry for being rude." Mu Xingzhi apologized softly.
"It's okay," Su Qingluan shook her head, "I just feel that your blood circulation is not very good."
"Blood...circulation?" Mu Xingzhi frowned slightly, obviously confused by this unfamiliar word.
Oops! I accidentally said modern medical vocabulary!
Su Qingluan quickly changed her words: "No...I mean, the feeling of your...blood, blood energy or qi and blood...in short, the circulation is not smooth, so the temperature of the hand is so low."
Su Qingluan tried to explain it in terms that could be understood in this era.
While explaining, Su Qingluan sighed secretly in his heart:
No wonder, this man has been sitting in a wheelchair all year round. There are no rehabilitation clinics in modern times, and there are no auxiliary medical devices to help him move.
If you don't exercise enough for a long time, your blood circulation will definitely be blocked, especially the fingertips and toes of the peripheral circulatory system. It's no wonder your hands are so cold.
Although he didn't feel pity - after all, there are far more pitiable people in the world than those with disabled legs - Su Qingluan still couldn't help but suggest: "Would you like to try 'finger fucking'?"
Yang scolded him in a low voice behind him, "What the hell are you? You're so rude to Mr. Mu!"
Although Su Qingluan knew intellectually that Mu Xingzhi had a transcendent status in the hearts of her parents, and that scholars in this era were particularly respected, she herself had no real sense of empathy.
However, she didn't want to argue with her mother over such trivial matters, so she changed her words and said, "Mr. Mu, please forgive me."
Mu Xingzhi smiled and said: "Mrs. Su, there is no need to be polite. I am just a few years older than Miss Su, so just call her by her first name."
Yang repeatedly said no, but Su Qingluan smiled and said: "Mother's orders are irrefutable, but Mr. Mu's kindness is hard to refuse. How about I call you 'Mr. Mu', but call each other 'you and me' as if we are equals?" "
It just so happens that the title "Mr. So-and-so" is very convenient for a modern person like Su Qingluan, and it is not easy for him to make mistakes.
Mu Xingzhi smiled slightly: "It's just like Miss Su said. I also want to ask Miss Su something."
Su Qingluan was putting aside the shredded vegetables that had lost their moisture due to the delay of two people making trouble, and taking out fresh vegetables. When she heard Mu Xingzhi's question, she raised her head: "What's the matter?"
