When he first heard Liu Xuan's words, Liu Mingzhi seemed a little disinterested. He picked up a handful of rouge rice and started playing with it with his fingertips.
"Come on, Xuan'er, do you have any old friends in Shu?
When you were a child in Jiangnan, you stayed with your brother every step of the way. When you grew up, you settled in the capital for many years, and you almost never left my elder brother. All the friends you made told me, how could I Don’t you remember that you have an old friend from Shu?
Now that you have grown up, you know how to respect your elder brother. It is obviously you who got the rouge for your brother... Come... Come..."
Liu Mingzhi's words gradually became stuttering. He grabbed the rouge rice in his hand and suddenly looked up at Liu Xuan opposite him.
Liu Mingzhi stared at his younger sister Liu Xuan intently for a long time. Looking at the teasing expression on her pretty face that was half-smile but not a smile, he lowered his head slightly and fell silent with melancholy.
The sight of a slim, graceful and beautiful figure couldn't help but come to mind, making Liu Mingzhi's eyes gradually become blurred, as if he was trapped in some unforgettable memories.
Da Guoguo, who is leading the horse in front of you, wait a moment. Is this Yingzhou?
Of course it's Yingzhou. Don't you know how to read? Why are you, a boy from Shu, running to the North?
Daguoguo, what are you doing standing there, what a melon!
Daguoguo, who are you? Why are you in this family?
Girl, this young master will ask you one last time, are you a human or a ghost?
Daguoguo, why do you have such a dull head? I said I had a shadow, but I thought it might be a ghost.
Have you ever seen a ghost? How do you know ghosts have no shadows?
It's unreasonable, it's unreasonable, I don't know if there is any shadow of ghost.
Stop, what do you think this is? Come and leave whenever you want.
Oops, Daguoguo, what are you doing? What are you doing by pinching others?
You...are you really alive?
Oops, my head hurts, Daguoguo, don’t you seem to be in a daze? People have said it many times, I am a human being.
Didn’t Daguoguo want to do something?
do what? what can I do? Just go with your heart.
Daguoguo, how about helping my little sister do some divination? You can also figure out what little sister is missing in her life.
Do I have to obey your arrangement and marry him for you to be satisfied?
Of course not, I just hope that you can have a happy marriage.
The person he is obsessed with is not me.
That woman is Ren Qingrui, but she is not me.
The reason for forcing two people who were originally unrelated to each other is because it was your good intention.
Liu Mingzhi, don’t you think your kindness is too cruel?
If my death can keep your secret that you don't want outsiders to know, Qingrui is willing to die.
You are too stubborn.
There is no regret for the path you choose.
Love is as impermanent as wind and snow, but it brings sorrow at every move.
My little sister does not want to stay with you, but wants to accompany you all the way to the end of the world.
However, such a simple request seems to have already made Da Guoguo tire of it.
In this case, it is not the most beautiful ending for one to be separated and to be content with each other.
Daguoguo, a little over the years, the little sister has been disturbed.
Maybe after this farewell, I really won't go back to the capital. I think Da Guoguo will be very happy when there is no little sister chattering around.
Have a good rest of your life.
What are you here for?
Girl, you and Brother Wei have known each other for a while, and now you are ready to return to your hometown. Since Brother Wei knows, how can you not come to Shibali to see you off?
Aren't you here to save me?
Girl, what are you thinking about? As a brother, I was afraid that you would not be firm in your intention to leave, and would suddenly regret it and turn back midway, so I came to Shibali to see you off.
Only by personally watching you go and confirming that you are gone can Brother Wei truly feel relieved.
Liu Mingzhi, I am Ren Qingrui, I really am Ren Qingrui.
But I am not the Ren Qingrui who makes you worried.
You big bastard, why do you want me to bear the responsibility for the mistakes made by others?
You are being unfair to me.
I hate you, hate you forever.
The last scene of the beautiful woman "gnashing her teeth" and crying goodbye on the official road outside the capital came to mind, and Liu Mingzhi suddenly woke up from his memories.
After taking a few heavy breaths, Liu Mingzhi put the rouge rice in his hand back into the bag at a loss, directly lifted the teapot to his mouth and started drinking in big gulps.
Until the herbal tea in the pot bottomed out, Liu Mingzhi put down the teapot and casually wiped the tea that overflowed from the corner of his mouth, and sat down on the stone bench with some weakness.
If Xuan'er didn't mention her today, it would seem that he was about to forget that in his life, there was such a person who had walked through his life for many years.
However, has he really forgotten about her, or is he deliberately suppressing it in his heart, deliberately not mentioning it or thinking about it?
If he had really forgotten it, why would he clearly remember the scenes of his acquaintance and dealing with her in the past?
Before he knew it, he and she had been separated for more than a year, almost two years.
We haven’t seen each other for so long. I wonder how this girl is doing now?
'Maybe after this farewell, I really won't go back to the capital. I think Da Guoguo will be very happy when there is no little sister chattering around. "
It will be two years since the last time we said goodbye. In more than a year, I have never seen her again.
Could it be that after this separation, this girl will really never come back again?
I thought this was just her angry words, but is it going to come true?
Why am I thinking this? What do I want these for? What on earth was I thinking? What on earth was I thinking?
He had clearly told her that he did not want her to come back, so why did he feel inexplicably disappointed in his heart now?
Maybe it's because I feel nostalgic and can't see my old friends anymore, so I feel lost.
Not knowing whether it was intentional or not, Liu Mingzhi randomly found a reason to convince himself.
As for whether he can really be convinced by this reason, only he himself knows best.
Liu Mingzhi slowly raised his head and looked at his little sister with a calm expression, and breathed out silently, as if he was asking the question in his heart with great difficulty.
"Is...is it her?"
Seeing that Young Master Liu had been silent for a long time, Liu Xuan was quietly tasting the tea in the cup. She was instinctively startled when she heard the eldest brother suddenly asked a question.
"Huh? What, what is she?"
"Xuan'er, is that the old friend you just mentioned that you met by chance in Shu?"
Liu Xuan finally heard Liu Mingzhi's question clearly, and put down the teacup in her hand with narrow eyes and teasing eyes.
"Who is it? My little sister seems to not quite understand your problem, brother."
Young Master Liu glared at Liu Xuan angrily, picked up another pot of tea and poured a cup of tea.
Don't pretend to be confused, brother. You know in your heart who the brother is asking.
"Brother, the more you talk about little sister, the more confused I become. Little sister is pretending to be confused.
It's just that the generalization you just asked is too broad. Little sister, I really don't know who you are asking about.
Mingren don't say secret words. Brother, if you want to ask something, just say it clearly. "
"Ren Qingrui, Ren Yatou."
"Yes, it's her. Miss Ren asked her little sister to bring this bag of rouge rice back to you, brother.
People say that sending goose feathers from thousands of miles away is a light gift but a great deal of affection.
This is a thousand-mile entrustment of rouge rice, but the affection is not so light.
How about it? Now you know what they are doing, right?
It's just a pity. "
When Young Master Liu heard Liu Xuan's meaningful words, he picked up the teacup and brought it to his mouth to hide the complicated meaning in his eyes.
"What's the pity? What you said is simply incomprehensible.
What does it have to do with whether she is good or not? What you said is all nonsense.
But, after all, we just met each other, and we can be considered good friends. We haven't seen each other for so long, and I still miss this girl a little bit.
Since you met her by chance, tell me how she is doing now. "
Liu Xuan's somewhat narrow and teasing expression suddenly darkened, and she caressed the tea lid in her hand with a hesitant look.
"She...she...she is now..."
Young Master Liu heard Liu Xuan's hesitant tone and subconsciously raised his eyes to glance at his younger sister.
"Huh? What's wrong with her now? You should go on talking!"
"Brother, Miss Ren seems to be getting married."
"Pfft - cough cough cough -"
