Chapter 122
"Wow! That's great! I can finally go out with my parents!" Lin Xi was so excited that she couldn't even attract her with delicious food, she just immersed herself in joy, "If we Can we go there for a few more days?"

"Mom, what's that place? What's so interesting? How many days can we stay there as a family of three? Oh, by the way, can we bring Peanut with us? If we all go, leave her alone in Lihua Xi, she will be very lonely!"

Questions were thrown one after another, Lin Xi was full of interest, as if the game was just around the corner and would come soon, she was so anxious because she was fully prepared.

The child's enthusiasm and expectations infected Mu Li, she put down her chopsticks, and patiently told her, "There are mountains and waters, and when spring comes, there are peach blossoms all over the mountains and plains, and when summer comes, the water is full of lotus flowers. Don't you think it's beautiful? Pretty?"

"Pretty!"

"There, every summer, many people will come to play. When it gets dark, there will be a bonfire. The local uncles and aunts will dance, and they will take out their own brewed wine to share with the tourists. Do you think it is fun? ?”

"It's fun!" Lin Xi nodded heavily, and a moment of sadness floated between her brows, "But I don't know how to drink."

Mu Li rubbed her little head, "You don't need to drink, there are many delicious things there, such as this rice cake, and homemade plum soup for relieving summer heat."

"Then I don't worry, I like to eat plums. Mom, why do you know so much about it?" Lin Xi held her hand and asked curiously again.

Mu Li, however, seemed to be tortured deeply, and the few traces of joy in her eyes disappeared instantly. She blinked, and her expression became extremely calm, "Because my mother has lived there since you were your age. .”

Lin Xi's black eyes widened in surprise, "Mom, did you grow up there?"

"Yes."

"It's so beautiful there, why do you want to leave there? I don't want to leave Lihuaxi, and the scenery of Lihuaxi is also very beautiful!" Lin Xi said happily, and she was even more proud when she mentioned Lihuaxi, "My little one When my friends know that I live in Lihuaxi, they are all envious!"

Envy... These two words hit so hard that Mu Li couldn't tell whether she felt sour or bitter. Not long ago, someone once said that she was envious of her being able to grow up in that beautiful place like a paradise.

It's a pity that the world changes, the more beautiful it is, the harder it is to go back once you miss it.

"Mom?" Lin Xi calmed down, but saw that Mu Li was silent, his eyebrows drooping as if he was thinking about something, "Why didn't you speak?"

Mu Li suddenly raised his eyes, bent his lips and said, "It's nothing, come on, let's continue eating, we can't waste it."

Turning his attention back to the big and small dinner parties, he seemed to have forgotten that there was another person behind him. Lin Jinqian sat silently in the wheelchair, staring at the backs of the two. A show of indifference and handsomeness.

What Lin Yisheng said was right, she was thinking about all the simple and beautiful things related to Zhehe Town in the past, and she wanted to go back!
It was so good that his arrangement would not be in vain.

After a peaceful dinner, Lin Xi clung to Mu Li and told a few stories before giving up. She left with Qin Yan who took care of her. Now Mu Li also knows that this Qin Yan is indeed Luo He's. The wife and the husband and wife both work for Lin Jinqian.

However, Lin Jinqian only sat quietly for a while and then left, leaving enough time and space for her and Lin Xi. What?
Mu Li couldn't understand this point. Fortunately, she had a lot to say to Lin Jinqian, so she knocked on the door of the study with this question.

The study was still the same, Lin Jinqian was sitting in front of the tea table, cooking tea and reading. When Mu Li got closer, he saw that what he was reading this time was not the Buddhist scriptures, but the Poems!

How could he even refer to poetry anthologies from the Spring and Autumn Period?Murray was stunned for a moment.

"Sit down and talk if you have something to say." Lin Jinqian said suddenly, let go of the Book of Songs, and poured her another cup of tea, "It's late, this tea list will not affect falling asleep."

With that indifferent demeanor and demeanor, it was obvious that she was expected to come to him, and this cup of tea was also prepared early.

Mu Li sat down, but his eyes still fell on the book of poetry.

Lin Jinqian also noticed her gaze, put the teacup in front of her, raised his other hand, and handed the Book of Songs to her, "Do you want to read it?"

Mu Li quickly shook his head, "No."

Lin Jinqian immediately put away the Book of Songs and put it aside, "I've been talking about the Book of Songs with Xiaoxi for the past few days, so I need to choose properly."

A faint sentence, like an explanation.

Mu Li nodded knowingly, he was surprised and belatedly said, "Xiao Xi is so young, has she been exposed to the Book of Songs?"

"It's appropriate to be in touch."

"I remember that when I came into contact with the Book of Songs, I was already in middle school. I didn't study well, and ancient prose was difficult for me to understand. Especially this Book of Songs—" Mentioned again, Mu Li's eyes still moved uncontrollably In the past, "I remember it was a work of the Spring and Autumn Period, and the language was older and more difficult to understand."

The Book of Songs, also known as the Three Hundred Poems, contains a total of 305 works. The content is divided into three parts: "Feng", "Ya" and "Song". It's the song "My Fair Lady, A Gentleman Loves You".

Thinking of this, Lin Jinqian couldn't help asking: "Which song impresses you the most?"

Mu Li was taken aback for a moment, unexpectedly he would talk to her about the ancient poems. This style of painting is really novel, and he smiled indifferently, with an abrupt and unaware smile, "Probably the song "Taoyao"."

"Taoyao" - the peach blossoms are shining brightly.When a son returns home, he should belong to his family.

It was a bit unexpected, but it was this song that impressed her deeply.

"Mother likes it." Mu Li explained again in a soft voice, and when he mentioned his late mother, he still felt melancholy in his heart.

In this way, Lin Jinqian understood why it was "Taoyao". He thought that Zhao Xinyue met Mu Dezhong in his short life, and devoted himself to Mu Dezhong, but he was not rewarded with kindness. With Mu Li, he couldn't get married as he wished, so he liked this song.

Lin Jinqian nodded, and asked again: "Have you read the poem "The Male Pheasant"?"

"Pheasant"?Mu Li never asked herself. As she said, the ancient texts in the Book of Songs were obscure and difficult to understand. She couldn't understand them, and gradually lost interest. The only thing was her mother's influence.

"This morning, Shu Wan came to Lihuaxi." Lin Jinqian said softly, turning the Book of Songs to the page of "Xiong Pheasant", "It happened that I was talking about the Book of Songs with Xiaoxi, so she asked me about this one, and said the last One sentence is very appropriate, what do you think?"

Mu Li took the book, frowned slightly, and read it carefully. Fortunately, this thick book of poetry is accompanied by annotations, and the combination can still understand the general idea. The last sentence - a gentleman of Baier, does not know virtue.If you don't ask for it, why don't you hate it.

Shu Wan actually said that this poem is appropriate, but what is it appropriate for?
Suddenly, Mu Li thought of that time in Shu Wan's office, when she suggested whether to ask Hou Yi for help through her, it turned out that those words had such a deep meaning—Shu Wan had already guessed the deeper level!
Mu Li slowly closed the book, feeling a little messy for a while.

"If you have anything to say, you can say it now." Lin Jinqian put the book away and suggested frankly.

Mu Li suppressed his complicated thoughts, looked up at Lin Jinqian, but saw that he was always indifferent, and remembered the time when he first entered Lihuaxi. Although he was also indifferent, he also had temper tantrums, unlike today, when he is always indifferent and calm. He looked calm and breezy.

Is eating fast and reciting the Buddha's name to make people have no desires and desires, and the mood is dull, or is it enough forbearance and precipitation to make people calm?
"Just tell me what you want." Lin Jinqian urged again, "Luo He said, after finding you, you were very calm. I think you should have thought a lot during this period, and there are many things you need to ask me for confirmation."

Admittedly, she did have a lot to ask him for confirmation, Mu Li nodded, and decided to express what was in her heart, "There are too many questions and I don't know where to start, so let's start with the nearest one."

Lin Jinqian nodded, already agreeing.

"The one who tied me up this time is the Lin family, right?"

"Yes." He picked up the tea, took a sip, his expression was as calm as water, and there was no shock.

Mu Li was also calm. On the way back, she kept thinking that Lin Jinqian must know, otherwise why would she be afraid of Luo He to pick her up?She could remember that when he found her in the basement six years ago, Rohe was not the only one who followed him.

It must be clear who did what and why, so that he can be so calm and let her be rescued after being imprisoned for several days, but this rescue does not seem to be his original intention.

"Is it because Shu Wan has been here that you decided to let Luo Te's assistant find me?"

"Yes." He also admitted frankly.

Mu Li nodded, and it really was the sentence "Gentleman Baier, I don't know how to behave", "So during the few days I was imprisoned, did you get what you were waiting for?"

"I haven't waited." Lin Jinqian put down his teacup and leaned back in the seat, showing no regrets, "It doesn't happen overnight. Think about it, it's not in a hurry."

Mu Li nodded again, as if agreeing with what he said, and then asked, "Is it the same person?"

Lin Jinqian looked up at her, this time he didn't understand what she was referring to.

"What I'm saying is, is this the same person as what happened six years ago?"

He shook his head, his thin lips curved slightly, showing a bit of bitterness and helplessness, "If it's the same person, how could it be delayed until now?"

Not really?Mu Li was even more confused. If it wasn't the same person, it meant that the purpose of the two kidnappings was different. Leaving aside this question for now, she asked again: "So, is it related to eight years ago?"

Eight years ago—Lin Jinqian raised his eyes again, and this time his deep eyes were full of surprise.

Mu Li took a deep breath, got up as if muttering to himself, and walked to the window, "I have thought a lot these days, and they are all things I mentioned to you before. I still haven't asked you, your legs What's going on, but I think my previous guess was right."
