Tell the lord, the princess has climbed the wall

Chapter 120 The Unwelcome Guest

To Zuo Mu's complete surprise, she thought that the so-called small villa must be a low hut with an adobe yard, not to say shabby, at least not in the atmosphere.

But at this moment, what he saw standing on the hillside was just the opposite. Zuo Mu couldn't help but see the scattered cottages:
I saw a large square courtyard made of blue rocks, and every family had three main houses of blue bricks and blue tiles, and two side rooms on the left and right. The windows were clear and neat.

It may be the Spring Festival, and eye-catching red lanterns are uniformly hung at the door of every house.

If you think there are only these, you are wrong. You will see a small stream meandering among several rows of houses, and weeping willows and some fruit trees are planted beside the stream.

The breeze blew, and the branches swayed lightly, as if dancing enchantingly.

The creek, the weeping willows and the houses on both sides complement each other perfectly.

I don't know, who would have thought that this is a small village deep in the mountains, and even Longquan Town, which they just left, doesn't have such a grand and unified layout.

Zuo Mu sighed in his heart, followed the path led by Alai, turned a few more turns, and finally reached the entrance of the village. From a distance, he saw a figure standing quietly under the willow tree, looking anxiously into the distance .

"Aniang!" As soon as he turned the corner, Xiao Shui saw the figure and called out affectionately. He ran first and plunged headlong into it.

"Xiao Shui is back? After running with my brother for a day, are you tired?" A gentle voice came.

The woman was facing them sideways, Zuo Mu couldn't see her face clearly, but listening to the voice, she muttered soft words, so gentle, there was no vulgarity of a mountain village woman from inside to outside.

"I'm not tired. I ate a lot of delicious food and bought a lot of good things today. It was all fun." Xiao Shuiwo said softly in her mother's arms.

Suddenly, thinking of something, he quickly broke away from his mother's arms, pointed to Zuo Mu and the others and introduced, "By the way, mother, we have brought back distinguished guests? Don't you usually like to be lively? You must be happy to see you. Come on!" Look, it's them."

Under Xiao Shui's reminder, the woman turned around and finally noticed Zuo Mu and the others.

But to Zuo Mu's surprise, there was no joy on her face as Xiao Shui described seeing the guests, but on the contrary, there was a faint worry.

"I'm sorry, we are Alai's friends. We didn't say hello beforehand, so we took the liberty to come here, sorry for the interruption!" Seeing the politeness, when the other party looked over, Zuo Mu hurriedly greeted him politely.

In the end, the woman just nodded perfunctorily, and immediately walked aside, changed her gentleness just now, and called out in a deep voice, "Ah Lai..."

Seeing this, Alai quickly chased after him, and explained in a low voice, "Don't blame mother, Alai has not forgotten the teachings of his mother and the elders: to bring unknown people into the village casually, but these benefactors are indeed He is a good person, and he helped us a lot today, and it happens that there is nowhere to stay during the New Year's Eve, so..."

After A Lai narrated, and roughly narrated what happened today, the woman seemed to be relieved at last, but she still didn't make a statement.

It's been a bit embarrassing since then, Zuo Mu and others have almost arrived at the door of the house, but the owner of this house obviously doesn't welcome them.

Seeing this scene, even Xiao Shui beside her couldn't help becoming nervous. It was the first time she had seen her mother so serious when she grew up.

Don't they need to return to Longquan Town for the new year's eve?Zuo Mu and the others looked at each other in blank dismay, having difficulty making a decision for a while.

However, I think so, this small mountain village is so unique, even an outsider like Zuo Mu can guess that there are many secrets behind it, so it is inevitable for the owner to have concerns.

Don't do to others what you don't want yourself to do to yourself. Since they don't welcome them, why make it difficult for the Alai brothers and sisters to be caught in the middle.

"How about..." Seeing that Alai was in such a difficult situation, Zuo Mu hesitated for a while, Zuo Mu was about to step forward to resign, but was stopped by Zi Yan, "That..., why don't I persuade you?"

"Xiao Yan, don't force anything!" Zuo Mu warned softly.

"Brother, don't worry, Xiao Yan knows!" Zi Yan winked and said playfully.

Because it's not far away, Zuo Mu could hear what Ziyan said, and Ziyan was obedient and didn't deliberately ask for anything. Basically, he just introduced the situation of their three mothers, saying that they are not bad people or anything like that. ,

However, what was strange to Li Zuo Mu was that the woman breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly agreed.

"So, I blamed you for my mother!" The woman patted Alai and sighed softly, then turned around and greeted Zuo Mu and others enthusiastically with a different face.
"The honored guests come from afar, some are far away to welcome, some are not far away to welcome, please come in quickly, the New Year's Eve dinner has already been prepared, and it can be served as soon as you talk."

It turned out that the yard on the far side of the village entrance was Alai's home.

"I'm really sorry to bother you by coming here!" Nanny An stepped forward as an elder and said politely.

"You must be exhausted after driving such a long distance, right? No, I'll take you to see the room first, and you can rest after tidying up."

Opening the gate, everyone walked into the yard. A Lai Niang enthusiastically took the bundle from Zuo Mu's hand, and took the lead to walk towards the east wing with Nanny An. Finally, she did not forget to turn her head and tell the A Lai brothers and sisters, "A Lai, little girl." The water and rice are in the drawer over the fire, and you will bring them out first and set them up later."

To be honest, the woman under the light is really beautiful.

In his 30s, he has a goose-browed face, willow-leaf eyebrows, and a plump body. Although he is wearing a coarse green dress, it is well-cut, and his whole body is clean, with almost no wrinkles on the clothes.

This behavior is not like that of a village woman in the mountains. I am afraid that no one will doubt that she is the head wife of any rich family.

Things took a turn for the better, and finally they had a place to stay. Zuo Mu didn't think too much, and followed Alai and the others to go to the kitchen to help.

As soon as everyone reached the door of the kitchen, they heard a childish voice behind them, "Brother Alai! Brother Alai"

Zuo Mu turned around, and before he could see what was going on, he saw a three or four-year-old boy running in from the outside and pounced into Alai's arms.

"Oh, it turns out that our little tiger is here. I haven't seen brother Alai for a day. Does he miss me again?"

"Well, I think about it!" Hu Ziren, as his name suggests, has a thick head and a thick head, "Brother Alai, did you bring me any good things when you came to the city this time?"

"Of course I did. Brother Alai remembered the little tiger's request when he heard it today. Let's see how many firecrackers I bought for you." Alai patted his little baggage to show off, "You will be responsible for calling everyone Come on, brother Alai goes to the back mountain to lead everyone to release, everyone has a share, okay?"

"Okay, okay, Huzi likes brother Alai the most." Hearing that there is something to play, Huzi said happily, clapping his little hands.
