During the daytime funeral, she went back to the team according to her father-in-law's instructions and took the incense for the memorial service. When she handed it to Xing Ruyi, she was heard saying to her in a very small voice: "Tonight, Ruyi Rouge Shop, I'll wait for you." What you want, I can give you. ”

What she wants, how did the female shopkeeper of the Ruyi Rouge shop know?

It's not that she didn't ask herself, but when she witnessed the scene during the day and thought back to what happened in the house, she couldn't help but choose to believe her.

Late at night, she went to the Ruyi Rouge shop alone, but she got a box of rouge given to her by the female shopkeeper.

She didn't know how she got out of the Ruyi rouge shop and how she got back home. The whole process, she was confused, as if in a dream.

Now, she sat in front of the bronze mirror, holding the red candle in her hand, but her eyes were staring at the box of rouge in a daze.

"It's no ordinary rouge, apply it and you can meet the people you want to meet."

The hypnotic voice kept ringing in her ears, and she pursed her lips and responded in her heart: "I don't want to see him, I just ...... I just wanted to hear what he would say to me. ”

With her lips loosened, she placed the candle in front of the bronze mirror and lit it with flint. Open the rouge, pick a little with your fingertips, apply it to both cheeks, and gently spread it with your fingertips. In the bronze mirror, the woman with wrinkles on her eyebrows and eyes was gone, replaced by a beautiful woman.

This is really not ordinary rouge.

She looked at herself in the bronze mirror, and even imagined that if she had bought this box of rouge a few years earlier, she would not have to marry a blacksmith. is naturally beautiful, coupled with her ingenuity, even being a favorite concubine in the palace is qualified.

Xu was aware of her thoughts, and the candle flame in the bronze mirror actually flickered. This moment brought her back to her senses from her fantasy, and she remembered her original purpose.

The shopkeeper said that if you want to see the person you want to see, you have to repaint.

She no longer hesitated, but used her fingertips to dig out the rouge from the rouge box again and again and apply it layer by layer to her face. The bronze mirror is getting darker and darker, the face of the woman in the bronze mirror is getting whiter and whiter, and her cheeks are getting redder and redder in the bronze mirror.

Rouge saw the bottom, but the person she wanted to see didn't appear. Dalang's daughter-in-law closed her eyes in despair, and muttered in her heart: "Liar, she is really a liar." ”

At that moment, a knock on the door came to my ears from outside. She turned, looked at the door, hesitated, and walked over.

"Who?" She asked.

The knock on the door came again, this time more clearly, but there was still no answer outside the door.

"Who is it?" She asked again, and the ghost grabbed the deadbolt with his hand, and pulled it to the side.

Outside the door, stood the eldest man of the Liu family.

She took a step back, followed by a red circle in her eyes, and quickly stepped forward, buried her head in his chest, and wrapped her arms around his waist. "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, after hurting you, I know who is the best man in the world for me."

The Liu family picked her up all of a sudden, and she looked up at his dark eyes.

"It's okay, I don't resent you, and I don't hate you. If you can still think of me, I will be content. ”

"Is it true?"

"It's true, I'm back because of you." Liu Jialang put her on the bed: "What happened in the past, let it pass." As long as you are willing to live a good life with me, nothing will change. ”

"Da Lang!" Tears welled up in her eyes.

Strangely, tears rolled through the rouge, but the rouge did not fade in the slightest.

"Don't cry! I'm going to feel sorry for my eyes when I cry. The eldest man of the Liu family took her hand, "Let's go, I'll take you to a place." ”

"Where?"

"Where I first met you."

"But ......," she looked out the window, "but it's late now." ”

"Are you scared?" The eldest man of the Liu family looked at her, and there seemed to be something hidden in his dark eyes.

She was indeed scared in her heart, but under his gaze, she could only shake her head against her will: "With you, I am not afraid of no matter how dark the sky is." ”

Before her words fell, the eldest man of the Liu family picked her up and walked out of the bedroom. He walked as fast as he could, but she didn't feel the slightest bump, only that everywhere she could see was darkness, very dark and dark.

"It's here!"

"Where?" She clinged to his arm, poked her head out of his arms, and looked privately.

"It's where I first met you." Liu Jialang stretched out his hand and pointed, the front lit up, and she saw a bridge.

The bridge, across a small river that had dried up. The river that once ran through the village where she had grown up, and then, for some reason, dried up, and the stone bridge was abandoned.

She clearly remembered that the first time she met the man who made her heart flutter was on that stone bridge. She was twelve years old that year, already having her own temper and ideas. He lost his mother when he was young and was depressed, so he brought his bags to her house to relax. They are relatives, whether it is according to their age or age, she has to call him brother.

He arrived in the evening, and she stood at the bridge with her father and mother waiting for him. She watched him walk from the other end of the bridge to the middle of the bridge, and at that time, he was not yet degenerate, not a bad man with a stinky body, but a handsome young man with a good demeanor and poetry. She saw him smile at her, and the afterglow of the setting sun fell on him, and on his face, in his eyes, on the corners of his lips with a smile, she fell into it all at once.

She wanted to marry him, and her father and mother acquiesced to him earlier. But then he changed, becoming more and more unseemly, and she and he could only meet in secret. Until, she and he were caught by her father, until she was unwilling to be the master of her father and mother, and reluctantly married into the Liu family.

She also thought about being a good daughter-in-law, and at the beginning of marriage, she also kept to herself, but he did everything possible to ask someone to bring the letter in. He asked her to meet, but she couldn't control her heart, and she couldn't keep herself from seeing her. Although she knew that every time he saw her, he had other plans, such as her money.

But people are often like this, when they fall in, they can't distinguish between right and wrong, and they can't tell which one is true to themselves, and which one is worthy of their sincerity.

And then everything becomes out of control.

Her thoughts were like water, and she ended up in ice, she looked at the face in front of her in a trance, and murmured, "Did you see me on this bridge?" How do I remember you saying that you met me when you were delivering farm tools to my family? ”

He suddenly smiled, leaned over, looked down at her, and asked, "Do you see who I am?"

Who is it?

The two faces began to alternate and change in front of her eyes, and for a moment it was the one she once liked, and the other was her husband who was killed by her own hands. She rubbed her eyes with some eye pain, and when she opened them again, she found that there was a strange man in a black robe standing in front of her. The man's face was very white, his eyes were very cold, and he had the smell of death all over his body.

"Who are you?"

"The one who led you on your way."

"On what road?"

"Huangquan Road." The man said to her indifferently.

She subconsciously wanted to escape, only to find a chain passing through her heart. The chains were cold, and her heart was frozen unconscious.

The second day of Grandma Liu's burial was the anniversary of the death of the Liu family.

While the servants were packing their things, they saw a paper figure. The paper figure is made fine and beautiful, and the eyebrows and eyes are even more lifelike. The house slaves all felt familiar, but they couldn't tell who this paper figure looked like for a while.

As a domestic servant, I rarely waste time on this kind of thing, and if I can't think of it, I simply don't want to think about it. put the paper figure and other sacrifices together, brought it to the grave of the Liu family, and burned it all.

On the way back from the cemetery, one of the servants suddenly said, "I remember who that paper figure looks like." ”

"Like whom?"

"Like a young grandmother."

"Did you read it? Who sent the paper man, I vaguely remember that there seemed to be words written on it. ”

"It's a word, but it knows us, we don't know it."

"Okay, okay, don't say it, this has to be heard by the young grandmother, and we have to be scolded."

Everyone kept silent as if the topic had never been mentioned.

In the Ruyi rouge shop, the magpie who was cleaning pointed to the top space and asked, "Why is this box of Huanyan missing?" I remember it was there last year when I was cleaning. ”

Xing Ruyi dozed off lazily and replied, "Sell!" ”
