Chapter 50: Returning to the old house, seeing Yan Lingji!
“Husband, I’m stepping out to grab some chicken and duck seedlings from the street. I might be back later. If you’re off to tell stories, please remember to close the door behind you when you leave.”
The next day, Jing Ni carried a basket of vegetables, like a conscientious housewife, reminding Li Mo.
There’s no way, with so much money at home, she always worried.
That was all the money Li Mo earned bit by bit!
Not long after Jing Ni left, Li Mo also calculated the time and left.
If he goes to the outskirts of the city at this time to pick up things and then come back, it would be just right.
Upon arrival in the village, he first went to see the old village chief.
The old village chief naturally chatted with Li Mo for a while, feeling fortunate to have a good daughter-in-law.
“Uncle Zhang, I’m leaving now, I have to go to the old house to get something, then return to the city.”
After sitting for a while, Li Mo got up to say goodbye.
The village chief saw him off, saying, “Alright, take care, next time you and your wife come back, Uncle Zhang will cook for you.”
Li Mo was very grateful to the old village chief.
If it weren’t for him, maybe he would have died on the roadside when he just crossed over.
In a few years, troubled times will come.
Li Mo planned to take the elderly couple with him when the chaotic war arrived, so they wouldn’t suffer from the flames of war.
Coming out of the village chief’s house, Li Mo passed through the village and came to the old house where he once lived.
He also had a different feeling for this place where he and his wife started.
Before he could push the door open, his action suddenly stopped.
His divine sense could directly pass through the courtyard gate and see the bolt on the door!
“Is there someone at home?”
Li Mo immediately became alert and expanded his divine sense to cover the entire old house!
The old home was full of traces of past lives.
The well cover in the courtyard was open, and the kitchen door was also open.
There were unwashed dishes and chopsticks in the pool.
It was obvious that someone was living in this place completely!
His divine sense continued to scan the living room.
No one.
Li Mo frowned, and his divine sense then covered the room where he and Jing Ni lived before.
The furnishings inside were exactly the same as before.
No one by the table, no one on the bed.
In the corner of the tub…
Wow! So fair! Why are the legs on the bucket so long? Why is the waist underwater so thin?
With a creak, the door was opened from inside.
Yan Lingji, who had just finished bathing, had tied up her hair, and appeared in a fire-red long dress like a fire spirit.
She bent down to pick up the wooden bucket on the ground, without even looking, she splashed the water out of the bucket.
After splashing, she suddenly realized that there was still a person standing at the door.
She almost splashed the water on him just now!
“Who are you?” Yan Lingji, holding the empty bucket, tilted her head and looked at Li Mo who had suddenly appeared in the courtyard.
Although he had seen beautiful women like his wife and Sister Zi before.
But the angelic face of this woman, along with the stunning figure just now, still impressed Li Mo.
Li Mo frowned slightly, “Shouldn’t I be the one to ask the lady, right?”
Having a beautiful woman suddenly appear in the house for no reason is not necessarily a good thing!
What he is more curious about now is why this woman is in his house.
And it seems like she has been living here for a while.
Are you a hermit crab? Those hairpins in your hair really look like crab legs!
Suddenly, Li Mo “saw” six hairpins on the sides of her hair.
Yan Lingji looked at the black cloth over Li Mo’s eyes, her eyes flashing with a clever light, “I know who you are now, you are her blind husband, right?”
With this, Li Mo immediately understood the reason why she appeared here.
“Was it my wife who let you stay here?”
But strangely, why didn’t his wife mention this to him?
Li Mo was left with a doubt in his mind.
Go ask later!
“Yeah, she saw me homeless, felt sorry for me and took me in, your wife is a good person.”
Li Mo smiled, “My wife is kind-hearted, she doesn’t harm a single ant when sweeping the floor, she cares for moths around the lampshade. She doesn’t even dare to kill a chicken usually, of course she is a good person.”
Yan Lingji: ???
Ah yes, your wife doesn’t harm an ant, your wife doesn’t dare kill a chicken!
You haven’t seen her when she’s chopping people.
One sword, one head chopped off like cutting melons and vegetables!
Since it was his wife who took her in, Li Mo naturally wouldn’t drive her away.
Moreover, after just sizing her up, just consider it as…
Consider it as rent!
Li Mo’s divine sense swept over her hairpins again, “When did my wife take you in?”
Yan Lingji put down the wooden bucket for fetching water, leaned against the door, and touched her delicate chin as she recalled, “It’s been about twenty days.”
Li Mo nodded, twenty days ago.
Indeed, his wife had been to the city!
It’s just that on that day, he also encountered some things.
Yan Lingji, leaning against the door frame, watched as Li Mo took out a strange tool from the house.
Looking up and down at him.
Besides being a bit handsome, he didn’t seem much different from an ordinary blind man.
Li Mo suddenly stopped in front of the courtyard gate, turned around and reminded, “You can stay here, but I hope you don’t run around, and don’t cause any trouble for us.”
“You should understand what I mean, Yan Lingji, right?”
