idle mistress

Chapter 165 Draw the line
Shen Qing shook her head: "Brother Mu, you may have misunderstood, I have always treated you as a big brother, and I have no affection for you."

Mu Xiu's face froze slightly, his piercing eyes dimmed, and a look of disappointment appeared on his face...

Lu Huijuan borrowed a wooden ladder from a neighbor and climbed the wall to get in. As soon as she entered the house, she saw the scene in front of her.

For a moment, she didn't react, and stood outside the door dumbfounded.

Mu Xiu turned around and saw her with a fierce look in his eyes. He stood up and asked her viciously, "Who told you to come in, get out..."

While talking, he stepped forward and pushed her, asking her to go out.

Seeing that he was determined to drive her away, Lu Huijuan had no choice but to ask for help from the woman behind him: "Shen Qing, Brother Mu wants to drive me away, you should say something."

Shen Qing looked at the two, and finally said, "Brother Mu, I hope she can stay."

She didn't like the woman's face either.

but……

Since I know that this man is not my own brother, I also know that he has other thoughts about me.

Now that I have rejected others, I cannot rely on them for everything as usual.She doesn't like this kind of ambiguous relationship, since she refuses, she has to draw a clear line...

But she is inconvenient to move, so it's not easy to do this. If this man surnamed Lu is driven away, he will have to rely on this man for everything, which is unfair to others...

She looked at Mu Xiu and begged, "I need her, please, Brother Mu."

Mu Xiu turned to look at her, was silent for a moment, then turned and walked out of her bedroom.

Lu Huijuan leaned sideways on the door frame, her eyes followed Mu Xiu's back quietly, until he was far away, then turned to stare at the woman on the bed.

She said with a sarcasm on her face: "You eat what he has and use what he has, and now that you have rejected him straight away, aren't you afraid of losing this backer?"

Shen Qing looked at her coldly: "Hui Juan, don't forget whose blessing you are able to stay. You are sneering at me, are you not afraid that I will ask Brother Mu to drive you out?"

After hearing this, Lu Huijuan's smile did not change: "It's kind of you to think of yourself, I don't know, you can still live so well without me?"

Shen Qing snorted coldly, "You heard it just now, brother Mu's heart is with me, he has feelings for me, as long as I bring it up, he can spend money to find another maid for me."

She bit the word "servant" very hard. Lu Huijuan always regarded herself as the half mistress of the family, and she never admitted in her heart that Mu Xiu left her as a maid for this woman, so she would listen to her. Be clear, don't worry too much about it.

But she knew that Shen Qing's words were true, so her heart skipped a beat.

Immediately, he pretended he didn't hear it, intentionally ignored it, snorted coldly, and said in a strange way:
"I don't know what some people think. A disabled person who can't even walk still thinks that he is a sweet potato. If he has a man, he is wrong. He still chooses. If this continues, you will wait to be a man for the rest of your life." The Luodi orange..."

The oranges at the bottom of the basket are used by southerners to describe old women who cannot get married, and refer to the rotten oranges left over by others.

These words are ugly, but they can't touch Shen Qing's heart. She looked down at her legs, and secretly swore that she must rely on her own feet to walk. She can't depend on others to live all her life, she wants to be independent...

From this day on, she began to exercise her legs. She insisted on crawling every day, first on the bed, and then moved to the ground when she felt that the place was too small.

Mu Xiu saw her struggling to crawl on the ground, sometimes making his brow covered with sweat, although he was distressed, he didn't step forward to stop her,
She just silently told Lu Huijuan to wipe the floor of the house clean.

As for Lu Huijuan, although she complained in her heart, she was too angry to speak out. She didn't want Mu Xiu to drive her out, so she had to do superficial skills. Therefore, she wiped the floor clean with a towel every day.

Especially when Mu Xiu was around, she worked the hardest.

But it was only when Mu Xiu was at home, once Mu Xiu went out, she would immediately relax, and she even seemed to be indifferent to Shen Qing.

As for Muxiu, he needs to collect herbs and earn money to support his family, and he is often away from home.

When he was at home, Shen Qing could still have a bite of hot food, but once Mu Xiu was not at home, Lu Huijuan would deliberately let the food cool before serving it to her.

Shen Qing has a weak stomach, and after eating cold food and cold dishes, she would either vomit or have a stomachache. Lu Huijuan saw that she had vomited all over the floor, and brought her a basin and a rag with disgust on her face, and asked her to Handle it yourself.

Even so, Shen Qing still forced herself to eat more, her legs would only be strong after eating.

Sometimes she was tired from crawling on the ground, and she didn't have the energy to go back to bed, and she didn't want to ask Lu Huijuan for help with a shy face, so she just lay down on the ground and fell asleep.

When Mu Xiu returned home, seeing this, his heart felt as if he had been beaten.

He saw that after he confessed, the woman deliberately kept a distance from him, so he no longer stepped forward to hug her like before.

Knowing that she has a stubborn temper, ten cows can't pull back what she doesn't want to do, so he can't force it, he thought that as long as she thinks about everything in the future, she will be of one mind with him.

As the days passed, it took Shen Qing nearly two months to slowly crawl on the ground relying on her hands to stand up and do straight leg raises. Then she began to walk slowly while holding onto the wall , and later, she could walk out of the yard with two crutches.

On this day, the weather was fine and the sun was shining brightly. Mu Xiu was not at home, and Lu Huijuan followed her out. She came to practice in the yard alone with a cane.

Walking back and forth around the small yard five or six times, she suddenly heard the sound of children playing outside, Shen Qing couldn't help but listen carefully, a few children were running past outside laughing, the scene of children playing and playing flashed through her mind, The corners of the mouth could not help but curl up slightly.

When the sound was far away, she turned around slowly and looked at the courtyard door... It has been a long time since she has been out of this courtyard...

After hesitating for a moment, Shen Qingzhu carefully walked out the door with a cane. After turning around and closing the courtyard door, she looked at the long alley and took a deep breath. She looked at her feet and began to walk forward slowly step by step.

Relying on her memory, she came to the market, which was crowded with people, and it was extremely lively.The people stood on both sides of the street and looked up, not knowing what to expect.

Shen Qing looked around and saw nothing but a human head. A middle-aged man beside her saw that she was wearing a cane, so he kindly took a step back to give her more space.

She thanked the other party and asked curiously, "Uncle, what are you doing?"
