Be a small county magistrate in ancient times

Chapter 438 Listen to What She Has to Say

Xiaojun's face turned red, and he was afraid that Meng Changqing would blame him, so he shrank behind Mo Lixiao and dared not speak.

"Miss Mo." Meng Changqing came over with something to say to Mo Li, "I was rash to enter the house without notifying you. My mother is currently handling chores at school and is not available for the moment.

Miss Mo, please rest assured today. When my mother is free tomorrow, I will invite you to have breakfast with me."

Mo Lixiao had already stood up when Meng Changqing appeared, "Since Auntie is not available, I will just wait." Mo Lixiao said again, "Thank you for troubling Master Meng."

Meng Changqing smiled and said, "I'll take my leave first. Miss, please have a good rest."

Mo Li smiled as he watched Meng Changqing's back as he walked away, and felt that this man had a temperament that was different from others.

He is worldly but not slick, polite but not old-fashioned. Although I have only known him for a short time, I have a deep impression of him. This deep impression is not entirely based on the life-saving grace he gave me before.

Xiaojun paid attention to where Mo Lixiao's sight was, and seeing Meng Changqing's back completely disappear, he thought to himself: So that's it.

She helped Mo Lixiao sit down and apologized with a smile, "It was my fault that I didn't understand what the young lady was thinking."

Mo Lixiao just felt puzzled, "What are you thinking?"

Xiaojun covered his mouth and laughed, "It turns out that the young lady is in love with Lord Meng."

Mo Lixiao frowned and said in a serious tone: "Master Meng and I have only met a few times in total, how can I be in love with him?"

Xiaojun looked like he understood, thinking he had seen through Mo Lixiao's disguise, and even teased the person in front of him, "Miss, don't be shy. It's just the two of us. What can't we say?"

Mo Li smiled and stood up, then took two steps back to increase the distance between them. "Xiaojun, what kind of situation are you trying to push me into by saying this?"

When Xiaojun saw her like this, he immediately put away his smile, lowered his head and stood there listening to the lecture.

"When I was in the capital, what kind of gossip was spread outside? Don't you know? I couldn't make it anymore, so I fled to Beishan County. It was thanks to Lord Meng who was willing to take me in and take care of me. If you say this now and others hear it, wouldn't it be that I am self-deprecating and have to blame Lord Meng?
Have you ever thought about what Lord Meng and his family would think of me?
By then, will I still be able to stay in Beishan County?"

Seeing her anger, Xiaojun immediately apologized, "I shouldn't have said that."

Mo Lixiao's gaze fell on the envelope again, "You'd better leave."

Xiaojun knelt down again.

"Miss, where can I go if I leave you?" It was the same old sentence. "Besides, this yamen is full of men. If I leave, who will serve you?" This time he added some new words.

"I don't need anyone to serve me." Mo Lixiao didn't really want to drive her away. After all, they grew up together. It was a pity that she had to sell herself to enter the mansion when she was young, and she was even more helpless than she was. "If you want to stay with me, you will listen to me from now on. Can you promise?"

Xiaojun, with tears already streaming down his face, kept nodding.

"Get up."

Not long after he said this, the tears on Xiaojun's face had not yet dried when Laicai and the two men came back with basins of water and various cleaning tools in their hands.

Xiaojun hurried to answer it and cleaned up very hard.

That evening, when Wen returned to the back court, she saw Meng Changqing sitting at the stone table in the yard, obviously having something to say to her.

"Mother, mother, school has just resumed, there must be a lot of things to do?" As he spoke, Meng Changqing opened the casserole on the stove next to him, scooped out three bowls of porridge from it and placed them on the table.

Liang Jiujiu looked at Wen, "What's going on?"

Mrs. Wen smiled and said, "I think it has something to do with the lady who suddenly appeared. Let's sit down and listen to what she has to say." (End of this chapter)
