Chapter 13
Shang Shixu's dark eyes were full of coldness. What he was dissatisfied with was not Lin Jingmo, but himself who had repeatedly shown mercy to her.

He also didn't understand the reason why he stopped when he was about to successfully kill Lin Jingmo again and again. It was her kindness to his mother, or her change of attitude towards himself.

He lowered his eyelids, and when he raised his eyes again, he met Lin Jingmo's gaze, and said coldly, "Who gave you permission to go to the backyard?"

Lin Jingmo heard something different. She thought that if Shang Shixu knew that her mother was being taken care of, she would be happy, but who would have thought that she would be furious in return.

While talking, the four girls who came back from the backyard also entered the door.

Lin Jingmo understood that Shang Shixu was angry because of Shang's mother. Although she didn't understand why Shang Shixu was unwilling to accept her kindness, in the end, she had indeed hurt their mother and child, so she lowered her eyes and said slowly : "Before... I did make mistakes first. Since I did something wrong, I will never escape, but I will never do anything to hurt her again in the future."

Shang Shixu turned around and said dismissively: "No matter in the past or in the future, you, Lin Jingmo, don't appear in front of my mother." Then he pointed to the four girls who came back from the backyard and continued: "Your kindness , my mother is not blessed to suffer, and I will take care of her daily life personally. Please don't send anyone to the backyard to disturb her rest in the future."

"Disturbance..." Lin Jingmo looked up at Shang Shixu who was full of determination, and said sadly, "Did I disturb her today? But I clearly..."

Obviously wearing a veil... Isn't she not afraid of me...

Before she could say the following words, she couldn't speak anymore when she saw Shang Shixu's expression.

He just looked at it coldly, without expression, but Lin Jingmo felt the meaning.

That is disgust, disgust from the bottom of my heart!
Shang Shixu didn't want to listen any more, and turned to leave before she finished speaking.

Lin Jingmo looked at Li's mother kneeling on the ground to pick up the spilled bird's nest, and couldn't help feeling a little distressed. She rolled over and got out of bed, ignoring her shoes and socks, and ran a few steps to catch up with Shang Shixu.

She frowned lightly, full of grievances, reached out her hand to stop Shang Shixu, and said unwillingly, "I went to see my mother-in-law, but it was out of good intentions. This bird's nest was chosen by Li's mother all day to cook for me. You How can you treat her hard work like this!"

Shang Shixu moved his hand impatiently and moved Lin Jingmo aside who was blocking him. He didn't speak, but just shook her hand and said lightly, "Because I hate you." After saying that, he left directly.

Lin Jingmo's mind was full of how he waved his hands when he left.

Hate me...why would you risk your life to save me?
Like a sudden thunderstorm, Lin Jingmo's clear and vivid eyes were suddenly filled with haze. She didn't chase after him anymore, because she knew that if he didn't want to stop, chasing him would be futile.

When she came back to her senses, she looked at Shang Shixu's back and suddenly shouted: "Okay, from now on, your business has nothing to do with me, and I will never appear in front of you and your mother again!"

That figure didn't stop, didn't respond, didn't even hesitate...

……

For several days, Lin Jingmo hid in the room in the main courtyard and never left. She didn't sleep, but lazily supported her head and watched the birds fighting outside the window. Occasionally, she would wonder if Shang Shixu had come back from the yamen at this moment. , Has he had a meal? In the middle of the night, she was wondering whether Shang Shixu was still processing official documents and whether he had not gone to bed yet...

The two obviously live in the same mansion, but they haven't seen each other for a few days.

Lin Jingmo always thought that she was so close to Shang Shixu, if he wanted to, he would always see her, but if he didn't, it would be useless even if he saw her.

So as the days passed, the number of times she wanted to discuss timing became less and less, and she even stopped thinking about him.

Mother Li saw that she was always sleepy, so she brought up the old story again and said that she wanted to go to the temple to ask for a lottery. She couldn't resist, so she had to let Mother Li pull her into the carriage to the temple.

The carriage drove through the lively market, and Lin Jingmo casually lifted the curtain on the carriage to look out, and couldn't help but recall the scene of her and Shang Shixu on the street that day.

It's just that things are different at this moment, and Shang Shixu won't meet her again. Even if he said a word more, he might not be willing. Thinking of this, Lin Jingmo lowered his head, and his slender eyelashes seemed to cover her disappointment, but still I couldn't help but sigh from my heart: "Oh..."

Just as she was about to put down the curtain, Mother Li pointed to the outside and said, "Isn't that man uncle..."

When Lin Jingmo heard that it was Shang Shixu, he hurriedly raised his eyes and looked out the window. Isn't that man who is dressed in a cool breeze and chatting and laughing in the crowd, is his husband? !
I haven't seen him for a few days, but Shang Shixu is still handsome and upright just like before.

A trace of relief flashed across Lin Jingmo's face, looking at Li's mother who was staring at him with a smirk, she quickly put away her smile and quickly put down the curtain.

Li's mother at the side tentatively said: "Counting it... My uncle is Xiu Mu today, what is he doing on the street?"

Lin Jingmo concealed his emotions, pretending to be indifferent and said: "Do my business!"

Mother Li continued: "Are you going to meet a close friend?"

Lin Jingmo's eyes faltered: "Do my business!"

Mother Li said again: "Or to visit colleagues?"

Li Jingmo raised his head: "Do my job!"

Li's mother couldn't help laughing when she saw her stiff mouth, and then said: "The street is so lively, my uncle is here to meet some good friends, right?"

Lin Jingmo couldn't help but glanced at the curtain, frowned slightly and said in his mouth: "Good friends..."

As he spoke, he opened the curtain again and stretched out his head to look around. There were restaurants, shops and inns, which were very lively. Looking ahead, there was an endless stream of people coming and going, which was just right for couples to have a tryst!

She put down the curtain angrily, and couldn't help making arrangements for her husband: "Damn Shang Shixu, it's hard to take a rest for a day..." Seeing the smile on Li's mother's face, she realized that she had made a slip of the tongue, paused for a moment and said: " Shouldn't you really go see a friend?"

In turn, she comforted herself and said, "With his temper, someone who can't smile easily, except for me...who else would take him seriously."

But Mother Li added more firewood to the fire: "What are you talking about, my uncle is also the servant of the household department, and he looks good..."

"Stop!" Before Mama Li could finish speaking, she stood up and shouted at the driver outside.

Mother Li wanted to stop her, but she pushed her away. She jumped off the carriage and looked in the direction where she saw Shang Shixu just now.

Mother Li poked her head out of the car: "Second girl, get in the car quickly. Where are you going!"

But Lin Jingmo said to her: "I just remembered that I want to buy something, so I won't accompany you to the temple today."

Mother Li asked: "What does the second girl want to buy? Mother Li will accompany you."

Lin Jingmo was in a hurry, and hurried to the direction of Shang Shixu, and said indiscriminately as he walked: "The rouge and gouache are all used up at home, I will go buy some, Mama Li doesn't need to accompany me, please ask for a safe lottery for me." Yes." After saying that, he ran away without looking back.

Mother Li looked at her anxious back, shook her head and smiled and said, "Since you woke up, have you ever used any rouge and gouache? What kind of safety lottery are you asking for? Please ask for a marriage lottery."
