Chapter Thirteen Midnight

Li Mu is a person who would do it when he thought about it. After dinner, he said to Sun as he was tired of working today and went back to the front yard shop early. Li Mu did not notice that when he was talking, Bai Qiaoqiao's face seemed to be someone applying rouge to her, and it was visible to the root of her neck. She didn't know what Li Mu was doing, and just thought he couldn't wait. Sun saw the two of them's small movements. When Li Mu walked far, he gently touched Bai Qiaoqiao's elbow and whispered: "Don't worry, Qiaoqiao, our old Li family will not treat you badly."

A mindless sentence made Bai Qiaoqiao stunned. After all, she was smart and quickly guessed that Sun must have seen something. She moaned and threw herself into Sun's arms with shame, and called out a sweet voice.

Li Mu returned to the front yard shop, pretending to close his eyes and pretend to sleep, calling out the system in his mind. He was rich in his pocket, and this time he was much more generous than before. Isn’t it just a tael of silver to find cooking techniques? Isn’t it just a tael of silver to find! After learning! He was stunned because he suddenly realized a problem. It is said that a good woman is hard to cook without rice. He learned cooking techniques, but without ingredients, isn’t it useless!

Li Mu gritted his teeth and sulked, secretly calling himself stupid and wasted a tael of money. At the same time, Li Mu also reflected on himself and thought about eating, drinking and enjoying it as soon as he had some money. Where did he go about his ambition? He should use this money and speed up development!

Li Mu thought about it carefully and learned the construction technology. He also learned the two branches of the construction technology, carpentry and civil engineering. When he came from Mayi, he had not moved the big items in his family and did not even have a decent furniture in the house. Now there are no merchants in Dingxiang City, and there is no place to buy them, so he had to learn skills to do it himself. Moreover, this house also has damaged places, so he plans to live in for a long time in the future, so he still needs to repair it. Li Mu thought about buying a few drawings, and the money was spent like water, and in a blink of an eye, five taels of silver were gone!

"Have you slept?"

Just when Li Mu felt distressed, Bai Qiaoqiao's voice suddenly came to his ears. Li Mu hurriedly turned off the system, opened his eyes and saw Bai Qiaoqiao, and was stunned for a moment before he remembered the joke he had just returned home. Li Mu smiled bitterly, he really said something casually, but he didn't expect that this girl was so honest and really came!

Bai Qiaoqiao didn't know Li Mu's thoughts, and when he saw that he didn't say anything, he held the light himself. The light swayed, just like yesterday. Bai Qiaoqiao naturally sat next to Li Mu, bit his lip and looked at him, and then went to untied his clothes.

"Wait first!" Li Mu was startled and hurriedly held Bai Qiaoqiao's hand. Bai Qiaoqiao glanced at him suspiciously and put his hand down.

Li Mu laughed dryly and said, "I asked you to come here because I wanted to talk to you, not that. Oh, can you stop thinking about me like that... Then... I am actually very shy!"

Bai Qiaoqiao's clear black and white eyes made Li Mu feel guilty. Suddenly she laughed, leaned gently on Li Mu's shoulder, and whispered: "I understand, then I will talk to you."

Li Mu sighed, and after sighing, he was very surprised why he sighed. Was he disappointed?

Li Mu raised his hand and gently placed it on Bai Qiaoqiao's shoulder. The weight of his shoulder made him feel that he now has a woman, a woman from the Tang Dynasty.

"I slept very early today." Bai Qiaoqiao said softly. Li Mu was stunned for a moment and knew what it meant. It seemed that he could not hide any thoughts from the people. His little moves were like students cheating in the exam, and they had nowhere to hide in the eyes of the invigilator.

"There is nothing to be ashamed of. We are not sneaking around. When we settle down a little, I will marry you!" Li Mu hugged Bai Qiaoqiao and said firmly. This was the first time he made a promise to Bai Qiaoqiao in front.

"real?"

"What are you lying to you? Don't you want to marry me?"

"Think," Bai Qiaoqiao nodded vigorously and squeezed into Li Mu's arms. How could she not think about it? In the social environment of the Tang Dynasty, a woman could get married at the age of thirteen, and she was even fifteen or sixteen. She is already twenty this year. In later generations, she was only at the age of just going to college, but in the Tang Dynasty, she was already the mother of several children under normal circumstances. When she was in Mayi, there were already a lot of gossip among the neighbors. Some even said that she was a stone

The woman is not ventilated, so she can't get married. Although Bai Qiaoqiao has a gentle temperament, she will feel uncomfortable after hearing this. When she moved to Dingxiang City, the pressure has not been dissipated. Not to mention anything else, when she saw Li Siwen yesterday, he asked Li Mu how many children there were in his family. When she heard that there were no children, she looked at Bai Qiaoqiao strangely. Although she didn't say it, the meaning was that your wife was so old, why didn't she have a child?

Li Mu couldn't feel this kind of pressure. Because in his consciousness, it was very normal for Bai Qiaoqiao to not have a child at this age. But for Bai Qiaoqiao, it was extremely huge pressure. There are three kinds of unfilial piety, and it was a big deal to have no descendants. If you really can't give birth, it would be fine, but it deserves to be charged with this crime, but the actual situation is not like this. It's so unfair!

So Bai Qiaoqiao is so proactive and has this kind of thought in it. She already has Li Mu's heart. If she could give birth to a child for him earlier, she would be more at ease, unlike now, where her mood is like duckweed.

Li Mu didn't know that Bai Qiaoqiao would have so many inner activities. He was sorting out his future arrangements. Now that he has the skill of refining metal and the pile of iron ore, there is no need to worry about money for the time being. But what follows is another problem. Although money is important, it is in vain to have no supplies. If you want to buy supplies, there are only two ways, either leave Dingxiang City to go to a big city, or find a way to attract merchants. The former is not feasible at present, because Li Mu is still waiting for Tang Jian and Li Jing's army to return to the army. In this way, he can get his reward when calculating his merits and give him a chance to go to Chang'an.

Then we can only choose the latter, but how can we attract merchants? The war has not been completed yet, who would like to come to Dingxiangcheng to do business. Merchants pursue profits and avoid harm, and will never come to such places. Suddenly he remembered Li Siwen. Li Siwen once said that the court was about to appoint a county magistrate to come, set up a yamen in Dingxiangcheng, and then auctioned the houses to make Dingxiangcheng run again. Li Mu couldn't help but think that if someone else came to be the county magistrate, with his current identity, it would be almost impossible to take him seriously. But if Li Siwen became the county magistrate, it would be very different. Li Siwen regarded him as a confidant, and his suggestion Li Siwen would definitely adopt it.

"I hope that guy can become the county magistrate." Li Mu murmu silently. Suddenly he heard a slight snoring. He looked down and saw that Bai Qiaoqiao was actually sleeping in his arms. Li Mu subconsciously wanted to wake Bai Qiaoqiao up and let her go back to the backyard to sleep. He raised his hand but did not take a picture.
