Chapter 26: I've Always Been There for You

Mei'er's heart thumped, and she lost her voice and called: "Mingchen, is it you?" ”

She looked left and right looking for the memorable cyan, but the wind passed through the woods, only the color of natural green leaves floated in front of her, the mysterious man in green clothes did not show his true face, Mei'er's whole body trembled slightly, just now I obviously heard his voice, very close to the voice, as if whispering in my ear, why is there no shadow?

Luo Junxuan, who was standing beside Mei'er, looked at her strangely and said in a low voice, "Little sister, who are you calling?" ”

"Second brother, didn't you hear? Hear a"

Luo Junxuan hurriedly held the girl's hand, the girl's expression was at a loss, and a pair of small hands were cold and trembling.

Luo Junxuan pricked up his ears and listened carefully, except for the rustling of leaves, he didn't hear any other abnormal sounds.

"Little sister, what's wrong with you? Do not be afraid, this mountain is very safe. ”

Mei'er's face was hot, she withdrew her hand, half-concealed her mouth, and said hesitantly: "Maybe it's the sound of the wind blowing the leaves, I heard it wrong!" ”

Luo Junxuan comforted: "This mountain has been searched by us no less than ten times, and the big snake has already run away, so you don't have to be afraid." ”

Luo Junxi heard his younger brother say that when he was sheltering from the rain on the mountain that day, he encountered a huge python, and the little sister was frightened into a coma for more than three months, but the snake disappeared without a trace after a flash of shock, he didn't believe it in his heart, and laughed at the second brother who was dazed by the heavy rain and was dazzled.

He clenched the saber at his waist and walked around the tree a few times, his falcon-like eyes wandering around, only to feel that there was silence around him, and there was nothing unusual around him.

"Little sister, are you afraid? Now that the worship is over, let's go down the mountain. ”

Mei'er nodded hurriedly, helped the second brother's hand to get into the carriage, and Luo Junxuan personally drove the car and slowly descended the mountain road.

Mei'er leaned back in the carriage and closed her eyes, her cheeks warmed - I must have heard it wrong, it was just my hallucination! Why do I keep thinking about that mysterious man? Regardless of whether he is a human or a ghost, one thing is certain, he is a family man, how can I always remember him

"Mother, mother"

In a trance, she heard a childish voice crying, the voice came into her ears very clearly, her heart ached suddenly, and she involuntarily stretched out her hand in the air: "Yong'er Yong'er, you are good"

The carriage stopped abruptly, Luo Junxuan probed into the car, and said urgently: "Little sister, little sister, what's wrong with you?" But what do you see? ”

Mei'er didn't seem to hear the second brother's question, but she looked at the void in front of her gently, and said softly: "Yong'er, come, mother's hug, come." ”

Luo Junxuan broke out in a cold sweat, threw the reins to Lai Wang beside him, got into the car, grabbed Mei'er's shoulders with both hands, and said loudly: "Little sister, little sister, I'm the second brother, I'm your second brother, don't be afraid, what do you see?" ”

Mei'er glanced at him blankly, Luo Junxuan had never seen her sister's expression so weird, she was so frightened that her heart jumped wildly, she was busy shaking Mei'er vigorously, and said loudly: "Little sister, wake up, little sister wake up, what do you see, don't be afraid"

Mei'er woke up suddenly, she kneaded her eyebrows, and said abruptly: "I'm nothing, second brother, I'm just distracted, it's okay." ”

Luo Junxuan looked at Mei'er worriedly, what's wrong with my sister? Since waking up from a coma, she has been silent all day long, mostly running to the Guanlian Pavilion in the lake to sit and meditate.

After the sumptuous family banquet in the Mid-Autumn Festival, Luo Junxi chatted with his father and siblings for a while, then went back to the room to pack up and prepare to go to Beijing early tomorrow morning to receive the concubine.

"Junxuan, which girl did you fall in love with during this time? I'm going to propose marriage for you. ”

"Ahem this, Dad, I haven't taken a fancy to it yet."

"How can this be done, your eldest brother will go to Beijing tomorrow to marry, and within three months, he will take the princess back to the province of the province, and your family affairs will be done during the princess's province, if you choose three or four, then the old father will choose on your behalf, you see, how about the eldest girl of the Zhang family? That day, I drank tea and chatted with Zhang Yuanwai, and saw Miss Zhang embroidering under the corridor, that look very upright, she is also seventeen years old this year, the same year as your sister, if you are interested, I can take you to Zhang Yuanwai Mansion to sit, then you look for an opportunity to sneak a look at Miss Zhang, if you are interested, I will send the matchmaker to propose, do you think it is good? ”

Luo Junxuan just touched the bridge of his nose and smiled, but didn't answer.

Luo Shanren snorted like a son, and knocked on the table: "Okay, it's decided, tomorrow at noon, you go to Zhang's mansion with me, you kid, don't play tricks on Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu has eaten more salt and rice for you, if you want to find a fireworks woman to come back to me as a daughter-in-law, see if I don't skin you alive." ”

Luo Junxuan smiled, and said: "Dad, you are far away, the four words of fireworks woman, my son feels dirty when he hears it, how can he think about such a woman, this matter of picking a daughter-in-law, let his father call the shots, it's just that his son is lazy, even if he marries a daughter-in-law, I'm afraid he often wanders around, for fear of snubbing others, this cough cough"

Luo Shanren smiled with satisfaction, picked up the lotus seeds in the bowl and threw them into his mouth: "That's right, there will be wives and children in the pit in the future, how can you be willing to hang around, this girl I have secretly investigated, it is indeed a good girl, although Zhang Yuanwai's family background is not as good as ours, it is also solid, and this family business is also right." ”

He turned his head to look at Mei'er, who had been silent, and said with a smile: "Mei'er, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the moon is in the sky, why do you look like a bad man?" Could it be something on your mind? ”

Mei'er put a snow-white lotus seed in her father's mouth and said, "No, my daughter is peeling lotus seeds, Dad, is it delicious?" ”

Luo Shanren smacked his lips and said with a smile: "Of course it's delicious, Mei'er, as the saying goes, the eighteenth change of the female college, you will grow into a slim girl in the blink of an eye, and some things should be planned, you see"

Mei'er put aside the lotus canopy in her hand, Tingting stood up and gave a big salute to her father and brother: "Daddy is forgetful, didn't I say that day that my daughter will not marry any man in the world in this life?" If the father thinks that his daughter is an eyesore, he can send his daughter to the nunnery to practice. ”

Luo Shanren was stunned, hurriedly spit out the lotus seeds in his mouth, and was about to speak, Mei'er walked through the corridor without looking back and walked into the inner house.

Luo Shanren beat his chest and paused: "Why did this girl have such thoughts?" ”

Luo Junxuan leaned close to his father's ear and whispered, "Dad, have you noticed that my sister has changed a little after waking up?" In the past, she always had an innocent face on her face, smiling all day long, but after that Qingming, the sister was silent a lot, yesterday when we went up the mountain to worship the mother, the sister actually called a bystander's name for no reason, but at that time I didn't see anyone around her at all. ”

Luo Shanren suddenly broke out in a cold sweat: "Could it be that your sister is possessed by demons?" ”

Luo Junxuan looked at the direction where the sister disappeared and muttered: "I don't dare to say this, but yesterday's sister's table was really weird, Dad, the eldest brother marrying the princess is a major event in my dynasty, and the sister's affairs should not be publicized during this time, let's observe for a while, look at the sister's table, and then find countermeasures!" ”

Luo Shanren rubbed his hands again and again, inhaled and said, "It's okay, Luo Fu is here!" ”

Luo Fu approached, and Luo Shandao: "From tonight, you will send additional people to guard the courtyard where Miss lives, except for the personal maid, no one is allowed to get close to Miss for half a step, do you know?" ”

Luo Fu bowed and replied, "Yes, sir." ”

Mei'er walked along the familiar flower path to her embroidery building, she was worried today, she didn't want to go to the family banquet, but the eldest brother only went home once in five years, and tomorrow she had to travel far away, she couldn't let the eldest brother feel unhappy, so she suppressed all kinds of thoughts in her heart, and accompanied her father and brother with a smile throughout the meal, but just now her father changed the topic, and she was about to talk about her own family affairs, she only felt irritable, and she had to retreat in a hurry.

The road is very quiet, the people in the house seem to have all evaporated, only the fragrant fragrance of flowers is floating, Rong Rong Yuehua covered up the dazzling red of the red lantern, Mei'er carried the hem of the skirt through the fragrance of flowers around her, and found that there was a faint candle flame in her embroidery building.

The candle flame had a hazy blue, as distant and mysterious as the sky, and the candle flame was beating gently, turning all her apprehensive wanderings into ashes.

With some strange premonition, she gently pushed the door open.

Under the candlelight, the man in Tsing Yi, who had disappeared for months, happened to sit on her favorite rocking wooden chair, and his son lay on his broad chest, as if asleep.

Mingchen saw Mei'er standing at the door like a petrified person, so he smiled, stood up and hugged his son, put him on Mei'er's bed, covered him with a quilt, and then walked up to Mei'er and laughed softly: "Are you back?" The son played for a day, got tired, and fell asleep. ”

Mei'er looked at her stunned, still dressed in a pale cyan, still with a warm and kind smile, his handsome appearance was reflected in the mercury-like moonlight, and there was a dazzling feeling whistling towards her.

"How did you get here these months and where have you been?"

His hand slid down her slightly cool cheeks, and his laughter was as clear and ethereal as the bright moon in the sky: "That's it, I miss you, my son also misses you and I haven't gone anywhere, I've been by your side all these years, but you don't know." ”
