Chapter 134: Change
The lantern stall owner is a kind old uncle, smiling and entertaining guests. His lanterns are not sold directly, and only those who guess the riddles correctly can take them.
Li Jiangwei walked to the stall with a smile and asked about the condition of the rabbit lantern.
"Uncle, do you still have rabbit lanterns here?"
"Rabbit lanterns? Gone? I remember being taken away by a masked guy. said that it was to be given to his future daughter-in-law. The uncle touched the stubble on his chin and said with a smile: "The young man now, it's really interesting." ”
"No other rabbit lanterns?"
"No! If the lady fancies other lanterns, she will pay two dollars and guess the lantern riddles with everyone. ”
"No rabbit lanterns...... Then forget it...... Yes! That's right! Does Uncle know where the little brother is going? I'll see if I can get him to change the light! ”
"It's a lantern for his future daughter-in-law, and it's not so easy to change it."
At Li Jiangwei's insistence, the uncle raised his hand and pointed in a direction, "That! ”
Li Jiangwei withdrew from the stall and looked left and right, except for people around her, they were all people she didn't know. It's not easy to find someone on a crowded street, Li Jiangwei stood in the direction of the stall owner's guidance and looked around, and subconsciously considered the logic of Qi Yongyi's actions.
When you find that someone is missing, your first reaction is to look for it, and you usually shout when you look for it. And the titles such as "Jiang Wei", "Cheng Wei", and "Miss Li Si", it is impossible for Yu Yongyi to shout in the crowd with his throat. The title of "Wei girl" may be okay, but the probability of finding someone with just one "Wei" is too low.
So what will Yu Yongyi do at this time?
After thinking with her hand against her chin, Li Jiangwei went to the Zhuyin Pavilion first, and there was no trace of Yu Yongyi in the Zhuyin Pavilion. Then head back to the street and look for the alley near the stall.
After passing through one alley after another, Li Jiangwei finally found Yu Yongyi sitting curled up on the steps with a mask. The rabbit lantern was placed at his side, and he looked down at the palm of his outstretched left hand. Even if he lowered his head with the mask on, he could feel a sense of loneliness and frustration from his silhouette.
Before they separated, Yu Yongyi held her with her left hand.
Li Jiangwei suddenly felt a little guilty, smiled helplessly, and slowly walked over and placed the paper bag wrapped in maltose firmly in the palm of Yu Yongyi's outstretched palm.
Yu Yongyi was startled, looked up suddenly, and saw Li Jiangwei who was taking off the mask.
Not far away, the light of the lantern hit her face, softening the lines of her face. She had sweat stains on her forehead and a confident smile on her face.
"You're here! I found you! ”
Yu Yongyi was speechless for a while.
"Don't you taste it?" Li Jiangwei was next to him and sat on the steps.
"His Royal Highness King Qin has been reduced to sitting on the side of the street, it's really my sin."
Yu Yongyi clutched the paper bag tightly and stared at Li Jiangwei for a long time.
In the end, he chose to give up suppressing his emotions and hugged him with open arms.
"Are you a child?" Li Jiangwei smiled bitterly: "You are also a great character. ”
"Don't disappear suddenly."
"Didn't disappear, I was supposed to surprise you......"
"No surprises, as long as you stay with me. Don't be like your mother, suddenly disappear ......"
"Don't blame me for not reminding me, I'm on the street right now."
Yu Yongyi was unmoved.
"You and I are not Wang Yong and Ji Chengtang now."
Yu Yongyi still didn't respond.
"If you are good for me, take care of my reputation outside."
Only then did Yu Yongyi let go, and Li Jiangwei wanted to take out the maltose from the paper bag and stuff it into Yu Yongyi's mouth.
"Even if you don't take off your mask, I know you're frowning right now."
"There is no ......"
Yu Yongyi's tone was not determined, and even a little deflated. It's like being seen through by others, and Pingbai is entangled and ashamed.
Li Jiangwei took Zhen Yongyi's left hand and said softly, "Let's go back." ”
"Where are you going? It's not home anywhere. ”
Yu Yongyi said so, but Li Jiangwei didn't pull him hard and stood up by himself. Li Jiangwei smiled secretly and was glared at by him.
"On the way to find you, I thought about the plot of "Wan Jiayan", and I wanted to change the ending."
The ending originally arranged by Li Jiangwei was that the male protagonist who was out of business finally liked the ghostwriting work of Shangshan Yuge and helped different people pass on their concerns.
"I want him to quit his job and return to his homeland, which was washed away by the floods, to rebuild his home."
"Why was the decision so sudden?"
"He left his homeland to survive, but what about after he survived? I used to think that he would gradually like this job by ghostwriting this letter. The moment I saw you, I suddenly understood what he wanted. He doesn't like to work, but he also conveys his thoughts about his homeland by completing letters for others. ”
Li Jiangwei held Yu Yongyi's hand and subconsciously increased her strength.
"What he needs is home, and so do you."
Li Jiangwei closed her eyes and said secretly in her heart: "Me too." ”
"What do you think of the ending of the new idea?"
"If you think it's good, it's up to you. When the manuscript was finished, I ordered someone to make a plate and start printing. As far as possible, the earliest batch of books should be printed before the arrival of the imperial sister. In the last few days, I'm afraid I'm going to suffer you. ”
"It's okay, just do what you love. If you want a short story, I'll let my sister send it in two days. ”
"You're not coming?"
"Know you miss me." Yu Yongyi, who was ridiculed by Li Jiangwei, turned red again, "But "Wan Jiayan" is preferred, and I will wronged you for a while." ”
Yu Yongyi grabbed Li Jiangwei and said anxiously: "There will be a cooking competition in the capital after a while!" Takeonkan will also participate! Do you want to come and see it? ”
"Huh?" What kind of strange invitation is this?
"Every four years! It's quite lively! How about waiting for a while? ”
"Yes...... So now, go? ”
Yu Yongyi stuffed the rabbit lantern into Li Jiangwei's hand, and in turn held Li Jiangwei and walked out.
Before the two were about to leave the alley, Yu Yongyi whispered in front of him: "Wait for me ......"
The voice was extremely small, and Li Jiangwei once suspected that it was her own delusion.
The crowd of people on the street drowned out the figures of the two one after another.
If Li Yue knew that the Shangyuan Lantern Festival would come out on this day, she would definitely stop Li Jiangwei from going out. Originally, I thought that after my girl finished writing the manuscript, she could rest in peace. Unexpectedly, after going out for a walk, not only did he not rest, but he also intensified his overdraft.
No matter how she persuaded her, Li Jiangwei ignored it. Li Yue could only tell Li Mo to make more supplements to replenish her girl's body.
The busy days of rushing to the manuscript lasted until the day Yu Yongqing left Beijing.
Yu Yongqing left the capital secretly, and the reason why Li Jiangwei knew the date of her departure from Beijing was purely because the East Palace sent a woman.
She still remembered what a thoughtful-looking woman in palace dress said after stepping into An Yuanbo's mansion early that morning.
"The emperor knew that there was no old man in Miss Li Si's house to take care of her, so she ordered me to take care of Miss Li Si." The woman didn't have a trace of a smile, and said lightly to everyone: "My surname is Zhai, and everyone in the palace calls me Aunt Zhai." ”
