From frugality to extravagance is easy, from extravagance to frugality is difficult.

Li Mu thought about it carefully. In the days when Ning You didn't come, he turned off the lights at the entrance every night, and then climbed into bed in the dark. Once accidentally stepped on the lazy sofa in the living room and almost fell.

In the past two nights, Ning You turned off the lights, he was lying comfortably on the bed, waiting for the room to darken by himself.

Never thought about these things before, but have to admit, it does feel good to have someone turn off the lights.

"How to change dual control?" Li Mu followed Ning You back to the house, not quite sure that Ning You could have any feasible suggestions. A squeamish bag who can't even chop firewood, can he understand circuits?

"You go and buy a socket panel with a switch first." Ning You came to the desk and sat down, intending to write down all the steps so that Li Mu could follow them in the future. But before he could write, Li Mu said, "I have it."

"Do you have a panel with switches?" Ning You asked.

"When I renovated this wooden house, I bought a lot of materials, some of which were not used." Li Mu said, "Do you want me to fetch it? It's in the attic above."

That couldn't be better.

Ning You originally thought that Li Mu would not be able to go out and buy what he needed until after Lutong in the scenic spot. If he had the materials himself, he wouldn't need him to make a memo for Li Mu at all, just do it directly.

"Remove the socket panel by the bed first." Ning You gave instructions to Li Mu while looking at the phone.

The power supply of the cabin had been cut off in advance. Li Mu followed Ning You's instructions and took steps to connect the wires. From the initial suspicion, to the time Ning You pointed to where he was going, the time just unknowingly passed by. Quietly passed between people.

When all the steps were finally completed, Ning You took the initiative to go outside to turn on the main power, then walked to the switch at the entrance, and asked Li Mu, "Are you ready?"

"OK." Li Mu made a gesture.

Ning You pressed the switch, and the dome light in the room turned on. The next second, when Li Mu pressed the switch again, the dome light went out.

Project Acceptance - Completed.

"It's done!" Ning You's joy was all written on his face. It was obviously a trivial matter, but it made him even happier than completing the difficult project in his hand.

Life in the city is often filled with all kinds of material desires, and every day is spent in unnecessary troubles. Returning to the most simple environment, you can feel the simple happiness instead.

"There are two brushes," Li Mu gently hooked the corner of his mouth, "Miss."

"You still call me that." Ning You frowned in dissatisfaction.

"That eldest young master?" Li Mu looked at the time, walked to the kitchen, and asked Ning You, "What do you want for lunch?"

Ning You stayed here for three days with Li Mu, and she had never been asked for advice on the issue of eating, she was all waiting to be fed.

Is this a reward?

Ning You's frowning brows stretched out, and she ordered dishes from the shelf: "I want to eat a big plate of chicken."

Li Mu took off his apron and put it on, and said, "No."

Ning You asked, "What's that?"

"Steamed potatoes, braised potatoes, fried potatoes..." At the end, Li Mu couldn't hold back and laughed directly.

Only then did Ning You realize that there was nothing to order, Li Mu was just teasing him. His brows furrowed again: "You are teasing me again."

"No, I have limited conditions here, so I can't cook a big meal for you." Having said that, Li Mu paused and asked with his back turned to Ning You, "Do you want to go on a mountain tour with me this afternoon?"

"Are you willing to take me?" This time Ning You didn't believe it immediately, he thought that last time he asked Li Mu to take him to the mountain, and Li Mu clearly said no.

"Well." Li Mu said, "Want to go with me?"

Today, Ning You washed the dishes twice as fast as usual. If his servants saw him working so neatly, he would definitely drop his jaw.

Li Mu was brushing Ha Ri outside the yard. When Ning You came out of the house with a backpack full of snacks, he said with a headache: "Are you going for an outing? Put the snacks back for me."

Ning You blushed embarrassedly, he really thought he was going on a picnic. But when Li Mu said this, he also realized that he had to respect other people's work, so in the end he only took the mobile phone on him, not even the backpack.

"Today I'll get on the horse myself." Ning You said.

Two days later, the soreness in both legs has dissipated a lot, but Ning You has not overcome the psychological illusion, always feeling that he will step on the saddle.

"Strength here." Li Mu slapped Ning You's thigh, "Just push up."

Ning You felt an unfamiliar scorching heat rising from the place Li Mu touched, and protested unaccustomedly: "Can you say hello before you touch me next time?"

"Okay." Li Mu was impatient, "I'll give you three seconds, if you don't get up, I'll call somewhere else."

Thinking back on the first experience of riding a horse, Ning You knew where Li Mu was referring to "other places". Li Mu's actions were always neither light nor heavy, and Ning You didn't want his butt to suffer another calamity, so this time he put aside his distractions and kicked hard, but he did not expect to successfully mount the horse easily.

But before he could enjoy the joy of success, Li Mu had already turned on his horse, grabbed the reins in front of him, and steered Hari forward quickly.

Without the partition of the backpack, Ning You only felt that his whole body was enveloped by Li Mu's breath. It was obvious that the front and back of the two of them were not completely attached to each other, but his back seemed to be exposed to the little sun, and even his whole body was heated up.

"Relax your waist." Li Mu felt Ning You's stiffness, and pinched the position of his hip bone with his hand, "Otherwise your legs will hurt again."

Hari did not run, and the impact was not severe. However, Ning You still forced herself to do as Li Mu said, because he had to find something to distract himself from his thoughts.

"Swing your waist with the rhythm of the horse's back." Teacher Li continued to teach, "Let your waist completely relax."

"Is that so?" Ning You tried to relax completely, but his butt slipped back a little, bumping into a wild species without warning.

"Don't be so loose." Li Mu's voice was inexplicably low. He supported Ning You's waist and pushed forward, "Keep your back straight."

Ning You whispered "um".

The two kept their distance tacitly, as if there was a Chu River in the middle, and the well water did not violate the river water.

Ning You didn't want to waste the rare experience opportunity, and tried hard to overcome the waves, but he really got the hang of it, and it didn't take long for him to maintain the same riding rhythm as Li Mu.

"You learned well." Li Mu's voice sounded behind him.

"I said don't underestimate me." Ning You said.

"Then why don't you try to hold the reins?" Li Mu asked.

"Is it okay?" Ning You turned to look at Li Mu, "What if Hari loses control?"

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Li Mu handed the reins to Ning You and told him how to use it. In fact, you don't need to pull the reins deliberately during the trot, but the feeling of holding the reins is different. Ning You has changed from a passenger to a driver.

When I lost my way before, I couldn't appreciate the birch forest that covered the mountains and plains. Now I am riding a horse in this birch forest, enjoying the sunlight through the gaps in the leaves, and being in the company of the little squirrels on the trees. Day trips to the outskirts of the city are awesome.

"Do you wander around the woods like this every day?" Ning You asked.

"Well." Li Mu didn't say, this is not a deep mountain, he deliberately brought Ning You to the best place in the woods.

"Did you see those two trees?" Li Mu pointed to the two trees on the hillside in the distance that were next to each other. "That's the couple's tree."

"Why the couple tree?" Ning You asked.

"One of them is a fir and the other is a birch. The fir is green all year round. The birch will turn from green to yellow, and in winter, the leaves will fall off." Li Mu said, "Now you can see that one of them is green, One is golden."

Ning You nodded.

"The reason why it is called the Husband and Wife Tree is because the green color of the cedar tree will not change, while the birch tree is born and withered. The cedar tree seems to accompany the birch tree through countless reincarnations."

Ning You felt the romance of these two trees, and said with emotion, "The fir tree seems to have been waiting in place."

"That's right." Li Mu said, "Plants are also very interesting."

Ning You retracted his gaze from the distant hillside, and at this moment, Li Mu suddenly grabbed the reins with his left hand, making Hari stop, and at the same time took something from behind the saddle with his right hand, and then pressed Ning You tightly on the reins. in the arms.

Ning You was first firmly guarded by Li Mu, and then she noticed that there was a behemoth in front of her. He grabbed Li Mu's arm subconsciously, and said nervously, "Yes, there are wolves..."

The wolves in the zoo are completely incomparable with the wild wolves, and they are much worse in temperament. The wild wolf in front of him was much bigger than the golden retriever, and his eyes shone sharply, which made people truly feel that this was a fierce wild animal.

The previous brown bear had frightened Ning You enough, but now facing a wild wolf at such a close distance, he only felt that his heart was about to stop beating.

"Don't be afraid." Li Mu hugged Ning You tighter again, "It won't attack us for no reason."

Having said that, Ning You saw that Li Mu was holding a dagger in his right hand. He originally thought that the dagger hanging on the saddle was just a decoration, but he didn't expect that it would actually be used when it was needed.

The wild wolf stared at the two of them motionless for a while, and Ning You felt that this time was longer than a century.

But in the end, instead of attacking the two of them, it retracted its sight and went in another direction.

Ning You finally regained her breath, and when she regained her senses, her back was soaked in cold sweat.

"It's an Alpha Alpha Wolf." Li Mu also breathed a sigh of relief, and put the dagger back behind the saddle, "Normally it shouldn't appear in this area."

"Then why?" Ning You still had lingering fears, and she was still a little trembling when she spoke.

"It's looking for its wife." Li Mu said.

"Ah?" Ning You didn't expect this development.

"Its wife has disappeared for a month." Li Mu said, "Most likely it was killed by poachers."

Ning You was stunned and asked, "Do you all know where his wife is?"

"Everyone in the group looked for it." Li Mu said, "But no one found it."

"How could this be?" Ning You frowned, "Don't you have any monitoring methods?"

"There are infrared cameras, but you can't rely on these devices to grasp their movements." Li Mu said, "It's close to the border, there are too many uncertainties, and do you know how much it will cost to maintain such a large forest? Let it go."

"In terms of money, I have..." Ning You said this feeling like a victim of fraud, but he was just eager to provide a little help here.

"It's not that simple. If you install equipment here, poachers will destroy your equipment." Li Mu said, "Instead of donating money, you might as well reduce your needs in your daily life and do something environmentally friendly. thing."

Go out lightly and come home with a heavy heart.

Ning You usually hears the slogan of environmental protection, but after getting in touch, she realizes that it is not an easy thing.

Just a few steps away from the wooden house, Ning You's phone suddenly vibrated several times.

There were text messages indicating that the phone was not connected, as well as WeChat messages from Li Chao and Xiao Zhao, saying that the weather conditions would be good tomorrow, and the guide said that they could fly.

The already bad mood was a bit dull again.

"Li Mu." Ning You followed Li Mu into the yard, "My friend said that he can pick me up tomorrow, I'm leaving."

"Really?" Li Mu didn't look back and focused on the reins, "Then I'll take you down the mountain."

that's it?

Ning You was unwilling to get this kind of response, and he didn't know why, he just wanted to see other emotions on Li Mu's face.

"You guessed before, that friend of mine is my boyfriend." Ning You said.

"Well." Li Mu still didn't look back, "What's wrong?"

"He's my fiancé."

Li Mu's action of tying the reins stopped.

He quickly tied the knot, turned to look at Ning You, and said in a relieved tone, "You really need someone to serve you by your side."

Ning You pursed her lips and walked into the room unhappy, but Li Mu stopped him at this time.

"Ningyou." This is the first time Li Mu called him by name, "There is a bonfire party at the foot of the mountain at night, do you want to go?"

"Bonfire party?" Ning You stopped and looked at Li Mu.

"Yeah." Li Mu said, "It's like saying goodbye to you."

There is no such thing as a feast in the world. Although Ning You felt sad, he was relieved when he saw Li Mu's free and easy appearance, nodded and said, "Okay."
