However, this is certainly not a question of whether Ye Qingcheng likes the other party or not. To be honest, his eyes were straightened when he saw the recent marriage proposals. Among the portraits of women produced by these matchmakers, many were born with natural beauty, good family backgrounds, and some even came from well-known families. If they were placed in the modern world, they would have been beyond his reach in the past.
However, there will always be a beautiful figure in his heart, and he will only live for her in this life. No matter how good other women are, they will not arouse any interest in him.
At this moment, he suddenly felt dizzy for a while, just like when he first entered this illusion, but he soon returned to normal. He looked around at the scenery around him again, but it was still the same as before. Likewise, in his own room, he suddenly felt a sense of surprise.
Not long after, Xiao Liu's familiar voice sounded at the door: "Third Young Master, Madam is calling you."
This made him tremble immediately. Hey, hey, hey, this fantasy is going to happen again. He doesn't have such energy and endurance.
However, when he looked down and saw that his clothes were still the same as before, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. If he had to do it all over again, he would definitely exit the illusion directly.
But since the illusion seemed a little different this time, and the feeling around him didn't change much, he wouldn't be too busy quitting. After trying it for a while, he found that his physical strength was the same as it was after the Northern Expedition in this illusion. This made him even more relieved, because with experience in the real world, his current strength can be said to be the same among mortals. If you stand out from the crowd, what problems can you encounter?
When he came to the lobby, he didn't see his father. He knew that in this illusion, his father ran a drug store in Chang'an. It was also very prosperous, even surpassing Chang'an Baiyetang. However, the relationship between his father and Yang Shilang was helpless. Being so close, Baiyetang couldn't find any way to suppress his father's opponent.
Mother Xianyu Qiongyu was sitting in the lobby at the moment, looking at a painting in her hand. When she saw him coming in, she immediately smiled and said: "Come on, Sanlang, a pretty good girl really came to our door this time." Come and have a look."
Hearing his mother's words, Ye Qingcheng felt a headache. He had clearly said that there was no need to come to him for this kind of marriage proposal, but his mother still asked Xiao Liu to call him this time, indicating that the person to whom he was proposing marriage this time was probably The kind that makes my mother very satisfied. Otherwise, with her love for herself, it is impossible not to listen to what he said before, and it is impossible for him to agree anyway. This time, she will reluctantly accept it and decline politely, which will not embarrass her mother.
He took two steps forward and took the portrait from his mother's hand. There are many famous painters in Chang'an, and their paintings are particularly realistic. Therefore, when most families want to propose marriage, if conditions permit, they will ask these painters to paint portraits. After all, if you just talk about it verbally, others may not like your child. It is better to bring a portrait directly to get the most intuitive impression, and sometimes you may even have a good impression.
In this era, no matter it is a marriage proposal or anything else, the two parties will not meet in person, otherwise they will be gossiped about. Therefore, popular talents like Ye Qingcheng will often encounter situations where someone sends portraits to choose from. But in the past, he just refused directly.
Because he owed his mother in this world, and because she died early and failed to fulfill her filial piety, in this fantasy world he would mostly obey his mother's words, even if he was unwilling, he would not refuse her face to face.
"Come and take a look. She is a charming girl, and her family background and status are so good." The mother said with a smile.
Ye Qingcheng knew that if his mother said this, then the woman in the portrait must really have a face that would captivate the whole country, because her mother herself was a very beautiful woman, and no one in Yizhou could match her at that time. In particular, according to his previous investigation in Yizhou, it can be seen that the reason why the Ye family had a dispute over the head of the family was also related to the failure of Ye Tianfang and his father to fight for his mother.
Apart from anything else, my mother is now in her thirties, but she still has a beautiful face, no less beautiful than a young woman. Even she thinks she is the most beautiful woman in the world, so she really has a peerless appearance. However, no matter how powerful the country is, he will not care. There are thousands of women in the world, and he only loves one.
He took a few steps forward, took the portrait from his mother's hand, glanced up casually, and planned to refuse.
However, when his eyes moved to the portrait, his whole body seemed to be struck by lightning, and even the hand holding the portrait couldn't help but tremble.
Is he dreaming? No, no, this is an illusion, so it must be that this illusion read his memory and found the weakness in his heart, which changed everything.
"Chen Yu! Chen Yu!" He shouted several times in his mind, wanting to ask Huan Chenyu his opinion on this matter, but there was no response at all. Only then did he remember that he seemed to be the first Once in a fantasy world, he called out to the universe.
Yes, in the present world, because the spiritual thoughts of Huan Chenyu and Bai Quan are both in his sea of spiritual thoughts, they can talk at any time and anywhere. However, in this illusion, he is not only a mortal body, but also has no sea of spiritual thoughts at all. Of course, he cannot call out the universe. If it weren't for the cool feeling that always existed in his heart, telling him that all this is an illusion, he would probably I can't tell which side is the real world and which side is the illusion.
Just like there is a famous example in the world, that is, Zhuang Sheng dreamed of butterflies, also called Zhuangzi dreaming of butterflies. It means that Zhuangzi once dreamed that he turned into a butterfly, but after waking up from the dream, he could not tell which side was reality. Did Zhuangzi dream and turned into a butterfly, or did the butterfly dream that he was Zhuangzi all the time? This allusion reappeared in Ye Qingcheng at this moment. At this moment, he could not tell whether this Ye Sanlang was a dream or the previous Ye Qingcheng was a dream?
But no matter what, he still planned to meet this person. While he still knew that this was an illusion, there was no harm in meeting him once. It was precisely because this was an illusion that he wanted to agree to this marriage. Even if he could only see her once, he would be satisfied.
"Mom, whose girl is this?" After looking at the portrait for a moment, he sighed and asked slowly.
