Chapter 626 Feelings

The little episodes did not affect the people's mood of grabbing money, nor did Li Mu's mood of returning home in glory. After the officer disposal of the assassin's body, Li Mu did not disturb the people's picking up money and left quietly. Zhang Fa wanted to welcome Li Mu to the mansion he prepared, but was rejected by Li Mu and he wanted to go home to check it out. Zhang Fa had to accompany him and walked along the road in his memory for a while. Li Mu discovered a strange place. He had not come back for a year. All the nearby wine shops were gone. They were all new houses. Only his old house was the same as before, and even the holes in the broken door were not repaired.

"Mr. Zhang County, this is..."

Zhang Fa laughed and said, "It's all the blessings of the Marquis, all the blessings of the Marquis. The masons in Mayi are cheap, and the court gave too much money and grain, so the officials dared not intercept them, so they rebuilt these houses. Only the Marquis' old house was not renovated and kept as it was. The officials were thinking that if the Marquis came back one day, they could be remembered. I don't know if this arrangement would be satisfactory?"

"Yes," Li Mu nodded and said, "I'm sorry, I've recorded it."

"It's OK, it's OK." Zhang Fa said repeatedly, breathing a sigh of relief in his heart. Since he met Li Mu, he had been unable to find out the pulse. Now there is finally something done properly.

Li Mu pushed open the door that broke the hole and walked into the yard. The dusty memories in his mind began to emerge, and he sighed when he looked at everything. Now the memories in his mind seemed to have been united with him, and he couldn't tell it himself. This was Li Mu's memory or his own memory.

Jin Chen followed him all the time, watching Li Mu stare at the furnishings in the yard, not knowing what to say. Seeing this with Li Mu was a wonderful experience for her. She originally didn't believe that places like Mayi could produce talents like Li Mu, but now it seems that she has to believe it. Looking at this small courtyard that can be described as "poverty", and looking at Li Mu, who is now the third rank of the Tang Dynasty, such a strong contrast still gives people an incredible feeling.

Li Mu turned around inside and out, raised his hand to wipe his eyes, and at some point his eyes were filled with tears. He pointed to the well in the yard and said, "This broken well will be waterless in winter. All year round, only summer will be water, and it will become muddy in autumn. I really don't know how I survived back then."

Zhang Fa quickly gave a flattery: "The Marquis is rich and noble, and he is blessed by the immortals."

"Ha, I don't know where that immortal is. When I was hungry when I was a child, I didn't see anyone giving me a steamed bun."

Li Mu sighed with emotion and said, "Mr. Zhang, protect this courtyard for me, don't let it leak rain. I send someone to clean it from time to time. If this Hou comes back, I will come and see it."

"No need to give the orders of the marquis, the marquis will do the same. Please rest assured."

"Okay, don't look at it anymore, go to the ancestral hall to have a look."

"Yes, the official leads the way." Zhang Fa said as he turned around and walked out. Suddenly, he uttered a roar and bumped into someone in front of him.

"Who is so bold that he dares to collide with me?" A familiar voice sounded, Li Mu's eyes lit up, and he shouted: "Siwen? You are here fast enough!"

"Brother!" Li Siwen laughed out loud, not caring about who had hit him, so he pushed the county magistrate Zhang and rushed over, hugged Li Mu, and laughed: "Brother, you're here, I'm so happy to wait for a while!"

When County Magistrate Zhang saw that it was Li Siwen, he knew that he had been hit in vain, so he grinned and stood aside.

"It's not long since you left after the Chinese New Year. Now it's only March. After all, we brothers haven't seen each other for two months. What can we wait for?"

"Brother, this is your fault." Li Siwen said seriously: "There is a sentence in the Book of Songs that 'No one day is like three months'. In this way, we haven't seen each other for decades. Isn't it easy to wait?"

"Yohe, have you even read a book?"

Li Siwen scratched the back of his head embarrassedly and said, "I don't want to study either. I'm not your brother or sister. I force me to study for half an hour every day, otherwise I'm not allowed to go to bed, and I can't do anything." Li Siwen suddenly saw Jin Chen and frowned and said, "Brother, you..."

"Don't get me wrong. Miss Jin is coming with me because her master is seriously ill. Find a few people, arrange a carriage, and take them to Gaochang." Li Mu winked at Li Siwen, and Li Siwen instantly understood and shouted: "Comeone came."

Jin Chen hurriedly interrupted: "Mr. Marquis, let me say something!"

Li Mu and Li Siwen looked at Jin Chen, and Jin Chen took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Marquis, although I am concerned about my master, it was already more than twenty days ago when I received the news. It is unknown whether my master is now or not. Although I am anxious, it is not bad for this time. I have been deeply grateful to the Marquis. When I arrive in Mayi, how can I not go to the ancestral hall to worship? If I leave like this, wouldn't I become a ruthless person? I ask the Marquis to allow me to worship. When the Marquis sets off for Dingxiang, it is not too late to ask General Li to send me to Gaochang."

Li Siwen looked at Li Mu, and Li Mu sighed and said, "Okay, then stay for another two days."

Jin Chen immediately showed joy: "Thank you, Marquis."

Li Mu didn't want to say much and said to County Magistrate Zhang: "Lead the way and go to the ancestral hall."

County Magistrate Zhang responded and led the way. Li Siwen approached Li Mu and asked in a low voice: "Brother, what's going on? She shouldn't be my fifth sister-in-law?"

"You fart? Are you calling that? Am I your fifth brother?"

"No, I mean, don't I already have four sisters-in-laws? She is ranked fifth! Brother, are you two really?"

"Nothing!" Li Mu lowered his voice and said, "This woman's origin is unknown, and I'm too lazy to figure it out. In two days, you will send someone to Gaochang to complete it."

"Oh." Li Siwen responded and didn't ask again. Li Mu said this, and he knew that Jin Chen and Li Mu were not in that kind of relationship. If Li Mu would not do this, he was very precious to his women. Thinking of this, Li Siwen changed the topic and said louder: "Brother, it's great that you are here. After dealing with the matter here, you go to Dingxiang with me. I have to let you see what Dingxiang looks like now. It's not an exaggeration to say that under your brother and me, Dingxiang is now Chang'an in Longxi, Luoyang in the north of the frontier, a holy place for merchants, and is famous in the Western Regions."

"Bad!" Li Mu continued.
