"Jin'er, do you think he will come?" In front of the bronze mirror, the woman who was painting her eyebrows seemed to be talking to herself.
"Miss is so beautiful, he will definitely come." The fifteen or sixteen-year-old young maid stood beside her and said immediately.
Looking at the woman in front of her, even her face could not help showing a hint of envy.
How great would it be if she could maintain her youthful appearance twenty years later
"Are you pretty..." The woman in the bronze mirror has picturesque eyebrows and beautiful features. She looks only in her twenties, with only a trace of wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, which cannot be erased no matter what.
Twenty years, how could it not leave some traces, even the young girl in the cardamom age should have become what people call a "woman" by now.
"Twenty years ago, he rejected me once, will he reject me a second time today..." the woman murmured as she looked at the sky outside the window, with a trace of pain in her eyes.
The girl didn't know how to answer the conversation for a while, she whispered: "Miss, the food is cold, do you want me to take it down and warm it up?"
When the girl walked to the table, there was a knock on the door.
The woman stood up abruptly, looking out of the door through the gauze curtain.
"Come in..." She suppressed the excitement in her heart and said in a trembling voice.
…
…
Li Yi still didn't think that besides Her Royal Highness, there was anyone he knew in the capital—a woman he knew.
What's more, it was a woman who would give him a handkerchief.
Of course, this thing will not be given by Her Highness the Princess. If it was her, Li Yi would definitely run away overnight with Ruyi, and the old lady’s birthday will not be over. Anyone who dares to receive the handkerchief of Her Highness’s love must have lived enough...
There is a table in the center of the room, with a few dishes of side dishes on it. In the curtain opposite, there are two figures faintly visible.
The curtain was lifted, and a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl stepped out quickly.
Before Li Yi asked, another voice came from inside.
"Are you finally willing to come see me?"
This time Li Yi heard it clearly, his voice was indeed trembling, and at the same time he was sure of one thing, the boy just now really found the wrong person.
The voice was very strange, and more importantly, that sentence contained all kinds of complicated emotions, and it was definitely not aimed at him.
Li Yi put the handkerchief on the table, and when he was about to leave, the woman sighed leisurely, and said: "Twenty years ago, you returned the handkerchief I gave you, and now you want it again." Back for the second time, since you don't want to see me, why come here?"
"Twenty years ago?" Li Yi shook his head, twenty years ago, twenty years ago he was still in the mother's womb...
"Girl, you've got the wrong person." Li Yi said with a sigh.
I don't know which unfeeling guy actually made a woman wait for twenty years. What can't be said clearly? He has to delay the youth of other girls. Why is this - this routine so familiar
"You are not him!"
The curtain was lifted suddenly, and Li Yi saw a strange woman coming out of it, she seemed to be about to speak, took two steps, and when she looked up at him, she suddenly froze there.
"My girl, what's the matter with you?" When Li Yi spoke again, he couldn't say the word "girl".
Just now the other party said that she has been waiting for someone for twenty years. Twenty years ago when she first fell in love, she must have been at least fourteen or fifteen years old. She is probably about the same age as his aunt now, so naturally she can no longer be called a girl.
It's just that the other party seems to have a good face. People in their thirties actually look the same as those in their twenties. If you don't look carefully, you can't tell it at all.
"Girl?" The woman looked at Li Yi, smiled bitterly, and said, "So you have forgotten me a long time ago?"
Li Yi feels that he is more wronged than Dou E. Is this aunt-aunt short-sighted, she doesn't even know her lover, or does she not only have a popular face, but also looks very old
If she is not short-sighted, she must be stupid. Such a beautiful woman is actually stupid. God is really cruel. Li Yi sighed, turned and walked out the door.
"Don't go, please, don't go, don't leave me alone..." There was a wailing voice from behind, and then Li Yi found himself being hugged from behind, startled, and was about to She separated her hand, but she continued to say with a choked voice: "Minghan, don't go, I am willing to be your concubine, I will ask my father and brother, if they don't agree, I will force you to die, and they will definitely agree Yes, don't leave me again..."
"Mingham!"
Li Yi's expression changed drastically, as if he had been struck by lightning.
"You said it, you said it when you were a child, you said you would marry me when I grow up..."
"I've been waiting for a long time, ten years, ten years, I've finally grown up, but why don't you say anything?"
"Do you know that after you left, I was so scared, so afraid that you would never come back again, I went to pray to the Bodhisattva every month..."
"You are finally back. My brother and the others didn't tell me, but I really want to see you again. The Chen family's daughter cannot be a concubine. It doesn't matter. I will ask them, and they will agree, and they will definitely agree... "
…
…
The woman said with a choked voice. In a short time, Li Yi felt his back was wet. He opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but it seemed that something was stuck in his throat and he couldn't speak a word.
After a long time, Li Yi let out a long sigh, moved her hand away, turned around, lowered his head, not daring to look into her eyes, and said in a low voice, "You misidentified the person, I'm not Li Minghan."
"How could I not recognize you..." The woman didn't have time to wipe her tears, and when she looked up at Li Yi, her body shook suddenly, and she immediately pushed away a few steps, her face paled.
"You're not him, who are you?" With an unbelievable expression on her face, she murmured, "Why..."
"My name is Li Yi." Li Yi said in a deep voice, "Li Minghan is my father."
"—"
"Yes, yes..." The woman was silent for a long time, and the way she looked at Li Yi became extremely complicated.
The two look so alike, even if she was excited just now, she didn't recognize her, and it's not surprising that her subordinates would admit their mistakes...
Her eyes regained clarity, she put the handkerchief on the table in Li Yi's hand, and said, "Give this handkerchief to your father for me, and tell him that I will wait for him here at the same time tomorrow night."
Li Yi shook his head and said, "I'm afraid I can't help you with this matter."
The woman looked up at him and said, "Don't worry, I won't argue with your mother, I just want to see him again."
"It's not for this reason that I can't help you."
Li Yi was silent for a moment, and said with difficulty, "Because he—has been dead for more than ten years."
The expression on the woman's face froze and became pale as paper in an instant.
"You, what did you say?" Her voice trembled even more.
Li Yi bowed his head and remained silent.
The woman was unstable and took a few steps back, leaning against the table to keep from falling.
"No, no, how could it be, how could Minghan..."
She kept shaking her head, muttering to herself, but her face became paler, she shook her lips tightly, and a trace of blood slipped down the corner of her mouth...
Li Yi stared blankly at this scene, at a loss.
Just moving her footsteps, the woman screamed, "Go, go, I don't want to see you again, you liar, how could Minghan die, Minghan can't die!"
"The crime is serious..." Looking at the woman who had become crazy, Li Yi's heart sank.
…
…
Li Yi didn't know how he walked back to Li's house, and ignored the greetings from the servants at home. The little fat man wanted to bother him, but he was locked out of the door, knocked on the door for a long time, and had no choice but to leave.
"What's wrong with you?" Liu Ruyi jumped off the wall, looked at Li Yi who was standing in the yard with a dull expression, and had been motionless for an hour, and came over and asked.
"What the hell!"
Li Yi clenched the brocade handkerchief in his hand, and said something very annoyed.
"What did you say?" Liu Ruyi raised her head abruptly, staring at him unkindly.
