Chapter 140 Overworked
"I'm an old woman with wrinkles all over her face. What's so beautiful about her face? Anyway, no one will look at it. I don't need it. You should keep it." Mama Liu blushed after hearing this, and quickly waved her hand away. She is only forty or fifty years old. , If you are still in the prime of life in modern society, but now the skin on your face looks very old, I don't know if it is because of overwork, or this society itself is making people old, Qin Mengyao looked at it, thinking of what will happen in the near future I felt an inexplicable chill in my heart, and I wanted Mama Liu to accept it no matter what.

Everyone has a love of beauty. Although Mama Liu said so, she also hoped that she could be young again. After hearing Qin Mengyao's usage and effect, she pretended to decline and finally accepted the clay pot and took it back to the room. middle.

After finally tidying up the things in the courtyard, Qin Mengyao went back to the room and put away the porcelain bottle full of essential oils, but when he turned around, he saw a gray carrier pigeon flying over the table of the Eight Immortals in the main room, cooing on the table Wandering around trying to peck some rice out, Nan Chengmo also looked at this bold and fearless carrier pigeon with great interest.

"Hey, hurry up and get some food. There seems to be a note tied to the pigeon's leg." Nan Chengmo looked at it for a while, as if he had discovered a new continent. Thinking of a way to lure him with food, Qin Mengyao encountered flying pigeons for the first time, so he naturally didn't want to miss the opportunity, so he tiptoed back to the kitchen, grabbed a handful of wheat grains, and sprinkled them lightly on the table.

Seeing that there was food to eat, the carrier pigeon swaggered over and pecked at it without hesitation. Nan Chengmo took the opportunity to grab the carrier pigeon in his hand, and slowly pulled out a note, his expression gradually becoming serious.

In the past two days, rumors about the story of Nanshi's stones in Pulan City have been going on and on. Although the ordinary people who were originally poor and happy had only a half-knowledge, they still listened with great interest.

There is a small teahouse in the city, and there is a storyteller in the hall, at the moment, he is spitting and embellishing the hearsay rumors, and the talk in the teahouse is full of enthusiasm, and the people around are also fascinated by it, even the passers-by come to eavesdrop sentence.

Listening carefully, it turns out that Nanfu sold the stones, but promised a store to the second owner, which resulted in a lawsuit.And the storyteller's words were so realistic that it was convincing. After hearing that the county magistrate enforced the law impartially and punished Nan's young master with a cane for [-] boards, the onlookers all applauded.

On the note in Nancheng Mo's hand, what was said was exactly this matter, only limited to paper, but it described the general process and results, but did not mention specific details.Fang Yuan was busy solving the recent incidents and couldn't escape for a while, so he sent this carrier pigeon to deliver the message.

The carrier pigeon finished pecking at the wheat grains on the table, and then raised its head while cooing in satisfaction. Qin Mengyao had long been attracted by this cute and arrogant creature, and never noticed the change of Nan Chengmo at all, just lowered his head to tease looking at the pigeon.

Nan Cheng Mo held the note in his hand with great force, and there were faint bruises on his forehead. He pondered for a long time, strode out of the room, and looked up at the sky.

At the time Mrs. Nan drove him out of the house with extremely vicious words, it was also at that time that he became convinced that he was not from the Nan family, but after all, the other party had nurtured him for more than ten years, and the most important thing was his always strict and kind Mr. Nan treated himself even better than his own son. He was not a heartless person. Seeing that the big stone was so ruined since childhood, he was heartbroken, but even so, there was nothing he could do.

On that day, Fangyuan expressed his heart to Nan Chengmo and hoped to get Nan Chengmo's consent, but it was the property of the Nan family after all, no matter how ruthless he was, how could he personally destroy the stone record supported by his father, so he separated himself, But noncommittal.Today, when I actually saw the news that Stone Story had been changed hands, I was still a little shocked.

As for the punishment Nan Chengyan suffered because of his dishonesty, it was his own fault, and it didn't make Nan Cheng Mo remember, but the figure of Mrs. Nan appeared in Nan Cheng Mo's mind in panic. Suffering from a headache, I'm afraid he will be sick for a long time after this blow. Thinking of this, Nancheng Molue felt a little joy, but then his heart was shrouded in gloom.

"Father, you are in the sky, can you see what happened to Nan's family? If you know, I hope you will forgive Fangyuan's trip, and Mo'er can't bear to have the stone inscribed in the hands of that woman be wantonly ruined..." Nancheng Moguan He closed his eyes and tried his best to press a stream of heat back into the deep eye sockets.

Fangyuan finally got the right to manage Shitouji after several accidents. Although Yuwen Yuwu was still working in Nanfu, he began to appear beside Fangyuan without any hesitation.The three of them worked together to redecorate the stone book and finally restored the original appearance of the stone book. Although many of the old customers have been lost due to the changes some time ago, Fangyuan doesn't care. As long as the business continues, sooner or later Sun Stone Ji will restore the past situation.

A month had passed in a flash, Fangyuan finished sorting out the things in the store, and suddenly realized that he hadn't visited Nanchengmo for a long time, so he temporarily bought some food and cloth from the city, and informed Yuwen Yuwu that the three of them were together. Then he drove back and forth to that secluded place.

Before they got to the door, they heard the sound of laughter in the courtyard, and the smoke from burning firewood faintly passed into their nostrils. Fangyuan couldn't help but feel strange. There were no other residents around, and Mama Liu was always very stable. As for Nan Cheng Mo Even if Fang Yuan was killed, he would not believe that he would laugh at others like this.

So in doubt, Fang Yuan put his ear close to the door and listened carefully. Unexpectedly, after a while, he heard the door creak and suddenly opened. Fang Yuan was caught off guard, and his body was still leaning forward. Kan leaned forward and just happened to eat a big mouthful of dirt face down.

Before this room got up, someone in the courtyard clapped their hands and shouted, "Sister Meng is awesome, she knocked the bad guy to the ground in one fell swoop!"

Fang Yuan raised his head in a dying state, tears streaming down his face, "Sister-in-law, it's me..."

"Ah, it's Mr. Fang," Qin Mengyao intended to tease the eavesdropper outside, but unexpectedly he played tricks on his own people, and made Fang Yuan lie on the ground in disgrace, unable to get up. He felt deeply ashamed and hurriedly He stretched out his hand to support Fang Yuan, and murmured softly, "Young Master Fang, we feel honored to come here, why are you so generous when we meet?"

"..." Fang Yuan was already speechless after being tormented, but after hearing what the sister-in-law said, she was even more speechless, so she could only force a smile out of her plaster-covered face and spit the sand in her mouth. Said, "Sister-in-law, let me wash my face before talking..."

Turning around, I saw a boy with a handsome face standing in the yard, staring at Qin Mengyao with a smile at the moment, and there was a woman sitting in front of the strange-shaped stove not far away, who was also turning her head towards the gate. look around.

Fangyuan didn't care about other things, hurriedly fetched a basin of clean water, washed his head and face carefully, only then noticed that the lady in front of the stove was Aunt Li who was in Shita Village before.Although he brought Aunt Li, mother and son to this place once, but the journey was extremely convoluted, he just acted as a woman who couldn't remember the way, so he didn't say much, but who would have thought that he saw her again in the small courtyard today, Can't help but look taken aback.

And Zhong'er was already laughing and holding Qin Mengyao's hand, looking straight at Qin Mengyao's face, and kept saying something in his mouth, Qin Mengyao walked slowly to Fangyuan, dismissed Zhong'er aside, Then he looked at Fang Yuan's red and swollen lips with a face full of apology, and before he had time to apologize, he burst out laughing.Fangyuan's two red and swollen lips really resemble Ouyang's sausage mouth in "Evil, West Poison". In addition, his mouth itself occupies a large area, making it more vivid.

"Sister-in-law, could it be that my face hasn't been cleaned yet?" Fang Yuan's expression was hesitant, but because the other party was Mrs. Nan Cheng Mo, he still suppressed his anger and dared not show his dissatisfaction.

Qin Mengyao knew that he was impolite, so he quickly restrained himself to calm down, and then suppressed the smile on the corner of his mouth, determined not to look at Fang Yuan's lips, and apologized to Fang Yuan with a strange expression. Awkward.

"Just now I heard the noise outside in the house, but what's new?" Nan Chengmo touched Zhong'er's head with a smile in the corner of his eyes, and followed the direction of Zhong'er's eyes to realize the existence of Fang Yuan.Nan Cheng Mo stood silently on the spot for a while, then walked towards Fangyuan indifferently, and greeted politely: "You're here."

"Small...Brother," Fang Yuan has never noticed the change of Nan Cheng Mo's attitude towards him. Although he was indifferent to others in the past, he never showed a chilling chill as he does now, and his body unconsciously moved towards him. In the last one, I opened my mouth to say another word of greeting, but I couldn't make any sound.

"Talk," Qin Mengyao also sensed that something was wrong between the two of them. Since Fang Yuan sent a piece of paper with flying pigeons last time, he never showed up in the small courtyard again, but today he suddenly appeared again, and Nan Cheng Mo was not as close to him as before. Could it be that there was a conflict between the two of them, or Nan Cheng Mo hated Fang Yuan for not coming to visit him?

In the wild guessing in her heart, Qin Mengyao suddenly remembered that she once suspected that Nan Cheng didn't like women. She had already thrown it out of her mind these days, but seeing this strange situation today, she suddenly remembered it again. Thinking of this She had an uncontrollable excitement.

No matter how bad she was, she was once a half-introduced rotten girl, and this kind of plot often only appears in Wai Wai novels. She never expected to be hit by such good luck, so she made up her mind to watch a good show, and she Withdrew slowly two meters away, squatted on the ground and blocked the ant nest with Zhonger, but kept his ears open, trying to get some information from the conversation between the two, which might be used as evidence to threaten Nan Chengmo in the future.

But who would have thought that the two of them seemed to be rooted under their feet, they just stood still and didn't speak.Nan Cheng Mo crossed his arms in his arms, his eyes were full of guard, and he looked at Fang Yuan carefully.Fang Yuan, on the other hand, lowered his head and stood quietly on the spot, just like when he was reading with Young Master Nan, except for his heavy breathing, he didn't dare to make any other sounds.
