Since the male maid of the Lin Mansion helped Lin Xi send the letter and Mi'er, he went back with peace of mind, Lin Xi saw this person coming back, and at the corner of the corridor at the end of the bamboo forest bend, he stepped forward to greet the person who delivered the letter, and eagerly asked: "Uncle Zhou, how did I ask you last time?" Has it been delivered? ”

Seeing Lin Xi's eagerness, Uncle Zhou didn't dare to say anything had changed, so he said, "I believe that I have delivered it, please rest assured!" ”

"What did Miss Mi say? Do you have any special instructions? Do you have a reply? Lin Xi asked curiously and urgently.

"Miss Mi didn't say anything, she was sick." Uncle Zhou said unintentionally, but the speaker was unintentional, and the listener was intentional, so Lin Xi eagerly asked, "Is she so sick?" Have you ever asked for a doctor? What did the doctor say? ”

Uncle Zhou didn't expect this Lin Xi to care so much, and after asking so many questions, it was not good not to answer, so he said humbly: "It's not a big deal, just take care of your body for two days." I'll get busy with nothing to do, and there's still some work to do! After speaking, Uncle Zhou was afraid that Lin Xi would ask again, break the casserole and ask endlessly, so he took the opportunity to slip away as soon as possible, leaving Lin Xi to stay in place with a confused expression, thoughtful, and wandered alone for a long time before leaving the corridor.

After a few days, Mi'er didn't reply to the letter, and Lin Xi became more and more restless and worried, "Don't this Mi'er like me?" Is Mill disappointed in me? Is my language too straightforward and Mill doesn't like it? Is she refusing or hesitating? Why didn't she reply to the letter, she didn't have a hint of what it meant" Lin Xi had all kinds of doubts in her heart, and decided to write a letter to Mi Er again, this time the letter was written plainly and clearly, I hope that Mi Er will either give a reply after seeing the letter, or meet in person, or ask Uncle Zhou to deliver it, and then wait anxiously in the Lin Mansion.

After Uncle Zhou sent the letter to Mi's house, he was waiting to see Mitu again, and after a while, he even gave some benefits to Uncle Zhou, and Uncle Zhou returned happily. Mitu opened the letter again and looked at it, it turned out that this Lin Xi wanted this Mi'er to give an answer, after all, he was young and vigorous, and this Mitu immediately showed a mysterious smile on his face.

Mi Tu came to this Mi Er's room, and saw that although Mi Er's illness was cured, but her spirit was still a little haggard, she began to care about Mi Er, Mi Er was very puzzled, thinking that this Mi Tu had taken some kind of medicine, and the sun came out of the west.

However, Mitu cares second, this point still has to be highlighted, or enter the topic in a roundabout way, "Mi'er, actually, my brother also thinks that it was a little too much for you everywhere before, but in my heart, it is good for you, think about it, I don't want you to be a gentle Miss Mi family for my behavior that binds you." ”

After listening to this, Mi'er really felt that this was the case, could it be that she was really arrogant and unreasonable before. He also replied kindly: "Well, I know, in fact, the main reason is that I am too rude, and I am also wrong, so don't take it to heart." ”

"You can understand, I am really very pleased today, worthy of being my sister of the Mi family, by the way, what do you think of the Bai family's son that my father came back a few days ago, and told us?"

Mi'er thought for a moment and continued: "That son of the Bai family, to be honest, I don't know him well, I don't know what his temperament is, and I don't want to talk about that child at all now, I just want to do what I want like before, wouldn't I be happy." ”

Mitu thought about it for a while, and cooperated with good words: "What Mi'er said is quite reasonable, for my brother to understand your situation." ”

This is something that Mi'er never expected, Mi Tu would actually understand Mi Er, Mi Er couldn't help but be surprised and relieved, "Brother, you really seem to have changed today." ”

"I'm just being honest, but in fact, I always care about and understand you in my heart. By the way, I heard that the son of the Bai family wants to invite you to meet you, but do you see it or not? ”

"Nope!" Mi'er replied resolutely.

"It's really inappropriate to blatantly refuse in front of your father, it's better to do this, you write a letter, the meaning of the content is to reject the Bai family's son, you'd better not call the Bai family's son, don't have any title, that Bai Gongzi saw this letter, just by looking at the impolite tone, he concluded that you are a rude person, it's too late to reject you, so that everyone won't hurt the peace." Mitu said step by step for Mi'er's sake.

"Brother is very right, how do you need to write that content?"

"It's still up to me to teach this, you vaguely hint that you reject this person, and don't want to have anything to do with this person."

"Brother is really a person who reads, my little sister understands, I will write it later, who will I hand it over?"

"Of course, it's handed over to me, after my mother received Bai Gongzi's invitation letter, I asked me to inform you to prepare, but I also understand you, so I can only secretly disobey my mother's wishes."

After Mi'er heard this, she was greatly moved, "Brother, you are really good to me." ”

After Mitu comforted Mi'er, Mi'er wrote the letter and asked Mitu to hand it over to Bai Gongzi, thinking that this was a matter of mind.

Mitu received a letter from Mi'er's own handwriting, smiled, and then wrote a letter, the content: "Brother Bai, it's been good lately, since the last time Hanshan Academy was goodbye, I haven't seen him for many days, I thought goodbye was slim and empty, but I didn't expect to have this opportunity, in the dark, by chance, he was destined to meet one day, I hope don't blame me for being shy, I don't know words, stop, Mi'er book" After it was written, Mitu found someone to send this letter to Bai's house.

After that, Mitu personally sent the letter written by Mi'er to the Lin Mansion, handed it over to the servants of the Lin Mansion and went back and forth.

Soon, Uncle Zhou hurriedly ran from the courtyard of the forest house into the hall of the main house, and when he saw no one, he ran out again. After passing the "Wangfeng Pavilion", passing through the bamboo forest path, bypassing the corner corridor, and coming to Lin Xi's study, he finally saw Lin Xi in his house, so he knocked on the door and said outside: "Young master! There's a letter. ”

Lin Xi was writing, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but be happy, and immediately put down the ink pen and approached Uncle Zhou. But at this time, Uncle Zhou asked, "Which one do you want to see first?" ”

Lin Xi wondered why he had two letters, and without thinking, "Give me both of them." I took the letter and looked at it, and I see.

One was written by his mother, and the other was written by Mi'er, thinking that the letter written by his mother should be just a cold greeting, so he opened Mi'er's letter first and read it.

After reading Mi'er's letter, it immediately began to rain like lightning and thunder above his head, and the words in the letter were all about refusing and not wanting to see each other again, and there was no title, and it was written by Mi'er at a glance. Because Mi'er is very familiar with herself, she doesn't need to use polite titles, and she goes straight to the point, but Lin Xi still doesn't want to believe it, and says to herself: "This is not written by Mi'er!" , it must not be. ”

With two long sighs, Uncle Zhou has been looking at the side stupidly, I don't know what happened, only to see Lin Xi look at the end of the letter in disbelief, and clearly see the words "Mi'er pen", and then take the letter to the desk, and compare it again with the handwriting left by Mi'er before, and found that there is nothing wrong at all, this is Mi'er's own pen. Lin Xibei came from it, the feeling of falling out of love for the first time was self-evident, her mood was extremely broken, and a faint feeling of pain in her heart could only be suppressed with reason.

"Young master, are you alright?" Uncle Zhou saw the gaffe and asked worriedly.

Lin Xi immediately realized it, so he replied that there was nothing to do, and sent Uncle Zhou away. I closed the door, and an indescribable love stretched out the whole room, like ice and snow, like walking on thin ice, deep pools and old abysses, and secretly hurt myself.

Although there was sadness, the man's endurance was still firm, so he regained his gaffe, opened his mother's letter, thought that he would be a little relieved, but when he saw it, he fell into a depression that could not be extricated.

So he quickly went out and came to Lin Xiang's room. Lin Xiang's face was gloomy, and he walked back and forth in the study, remembering the scene when he met Wu Yuan fifteen years ago. That year, he was full of spirit, full of poetry and won the admiration of everyone, and no one in the capital knew that this was the son of this talent. That year, she was gentle and elegant, knowledgeable, and shy with a hibiscus temperament. They met in the peach orchard, that day was wafting with fragrant fragrance, full of spring beauty, beloved beauty rolls, silently with the development of the season, into a concubine.

"Daddy!"

Lin Xiang was quickly pulled back to reality by Lin Xi's sudden voice, paused, and then sat down at the desk not far away, faced Lin Xi, and said, "What's the matter?" If you don't knock on the door first, where are the rules? ”

"Mother has a letter!" Lin Xi was straightforward and looked at Lin Xiang with complicated eyes, wanting to know how he would answer.

"I know" After saying that, Lin Xiang put the envelope on the desk in his hand, and the envelope said "Wu Yuan pen", obviously, Wu Yuan wrote a letter to the two of them.

Lin Xi saw his letter and didn't think twice, "Mother also wrote to you?" ”

Lin Xiang coughed twice before continuing: "She can't let you go after all, and now she is seriously ill, and she has asked me in the letter, helplessly, and depending on your idea, if you are worried and taken into account, I can send you a trip to visit." ”

"In the letter, the mother said that she was seriously ill, and when she was dying, she was afraid that she would never see her child again"

"Although you have never met her, but there is a relationship, after all, blood is thicker than water, and I can't stop you from meeting her, so as not to leave regrets later, you decide whether to go or not, and leave immediately after deciding."

"Dad, you're going with you, too?"

"Hmm" Lin Xiang replied in a weak tone, but there were already countless ripples in his heart, afraid that Lin Xi would notice it, so he immediately sent Lin Xi out, leaving him alone in the room to ponder, and continued to walk back and forth.

On the second day, the Lin Mansion had already packed up in various ways, prepared two carriages and stood in front of the door, and the servants kept carrying things out of the house, entering the carriage, and entering the door after putting it down.

A moment later, Lin Xiang and Lin Xi walked out of the door of the main house and came to the carriage, Lin Xi stood in front of the gate outside the courtyard, looked back, and looked at the bamboo forest outside the courtyard.

The servant said to Lin Xi: "Young master, don't look at it, let's leave quickly, you will come back, why do you seem to be uneasy?" ”

Lin Xi noticed that he was too melancholy, and said softly: "Yes, I will come back, but I want to come back, and I don't want to come back." After that, he got into the back seat and got into the car with two horses side by side, Lin Xiang also got into the carriage in the front row, and the servant got in the car and drove away, and the dust behind the car waved.
