Chapter 12 – Two Bowls of Soup
“The Empress is also invited to enter the room on the second floor. I came to take a look at the arrangements inside, and you immediately understand.” Mo Feng respectfully said from the side.
Lin Yi Xue had no idea what was waiting for her in the room on the second floor.
However, as she walked up the stairs to the second floor, Lin Yi Xue’s legs couldn’t help but tremble.
She had no idea why all of this was happening.
He only felt that this small fenced courtyard, two stories of bamboo houses, plum trees, and even the swing in the corner of the yard was filled with a familiar scent.
Lin Yi Xue was completely unable to control her emotions. She felt that her hands were slightly trembling.
Finally, she arrived at the room in the middle of the second floor. Lin Yi Xue seemed to have exhausted all of her strength in her life. Trembling, she gently pushed open the door.
A familiar scent wafted over. The arrangement of the room was simple and unadorned.
In the middle of the room was a small bed with a pink veil over it.
In the corner of the wall, there was a small dresser. On it, there was a simple copper mirror and a small wooden comb.
Under the window, there was a small couch covered with a thick white blanket. It seemed that he could read some books while lying on it.
Beside the bed, there was a small, square wooden table. On the table, there was an exquisite vase with a few plum blossoms protruding from it.
Beside the vase was an exquisite tea set.
At this moment, steam was still coming out from the mouth of the teapot. It seemed like the teapot was filled with freshly brewed tea.
The room looked exactly the same as a little girl’s room.
However, Lin Yi Xue couldn’t help but tear up.
So it wasn’t just these that made Lin Yi Xue shed tears.
Instead, there were portraits hanging on the surrounding walls.
The little girl in the painting was dressed in white, and she was smiling sweetly as she sat on the swing.
Next to each portrait hung a small sign.
Six years old, seven years old, eight years old, nine years old, ten years old … They continued all the way until they were seventeen.
When you look at the whole thing, you’ll see that except for this one, which looks a little new at seventeen this year.
As for the rest, every painting looked to be of a certain age. It must have been painted a long time ago.
When he was seven or eight years old, the pages he drew had started to turn slightly yellow.
Then, as you look at the pictures one by one along with the age, you will notice that the little girl is quietly changing every year. She is slowly growing up.
In the end, along with the increase of her age, she became a delicate young girl at the age of 17.
However, every painting had one thing in common.
That’s right, every girl in the painting had a pure and holy plum flower between their eyebrows.
That’s right, the woman in the painting was she, Lin Yi Xue.
Lin Yi Xue’s eyes were filled with hot tears. Her trembling hands gently caressed each and every portrait.
At this moment, in her mind, she couldn’t help but recall the scene when Ouyang Zhixuan was painstakingly thinking about how he would look when he grew up, painting after painting, in the dead of the night.
“This fool, who would remain the same? When I was eleven or twelve years old, I wasn’t like this at all, alright?”
Lin Yi Xue said to herself while crying and laughing.
Because, according to Murong Jin, after she was 11 years old, she had some baby fat, and her face was a lot more round.
Afterwards, when something happened to the Murong Family, they hid and hid with Murong Jin, leading a peaceful life. Only then did they slowly lose weight.
Lin Yi Xue laughed and cried at the same time. She seemed like she was possessed as she looked at these paintings again and again.
Finally, Lin Yi Xue was tired. She sat down in front of the small table and prepared to pour herself a jug of water to drink.
Lin Yi Xue was stunned as soon as she picked up the teapot.
Because underneath the teapot were a few pieces of paper that had been folded into a square.
Lin Yi Xue gently put down the teapot and took out a piece of paper. She opened it with trembling hands. It was actually a letter from Ouyang Zhixuan to her.
“Xue’er, by the time you’ve seen this letter, I’ve already led my troops south.
I wonder if you thought of anything when you saw this yard and this little room.
This small courtyard and this room were personally arranged by me little by little according to my memories after I returned from my sixteen years old. It has already accompanied me through countless days of time.
It is the holy land of my soul. Whenever I am in a bad mood or depressed mood, I would always come here and quietly stay for a period of time. Afterwards, I would have unlimited motivation and my entire body would be filled with fighting spirit.
Because, I know, in the distance, there is a cute little girl waiting for me, waiting for me to marry her when I grow up.
I thought I’d bring you here myself when everything was over.
However, in view of the misunderstanding between us during this period of time.
After much consideration, I decided to let Mo Feng bring you here first and return this ruby jade pendant to you.
It was your mother’s gift to you, and I have no right to possess it.
As for the future, whether you want to give it to me or not will be up to you.
Actually, all these years, I’ve been feeling very guilty because I took this ruby jade pendant that you love so much. I’ve never dared to mention that encounter in front of you.
However, I can’t bear to return it to you.
Because, you will never know how important it is to me.
What an impact that encounter eleven years ago had had on my life.
Back then, when I thought that I had nowhere else to go, that my body was poisoned and that I had nothing to live for, you saved me and gave me hope to live.
I thought for a moment that I might never love you again in my life, but I’ve changed since I met you.
I feel that the world is so beautiful, so there is a beautiful feeling, as long as I work hard, can have.
“When I grow up, you can marry me!”
Your childish promise has been ringing in my ears all these years.
I have always kept it in mind and have never forgotten it.
Remember when you were sick? I was too frightened to do anything about it. I had no idea what to do.
Grandmother came to me the other day and told me that the highest state of love is to make a person happy.
If you can’t even do that, then it’s not true love.
This sentence, suddenly filled with wisdom, made me reflect a lot.
I admit, I’ve missed a lot of things.
I shouldn’t, I know. This pair of ruby jade pendants is your favorite.
When he finally left, he took it away quietly, just to give himself some thought.
I made a choice for you. I went with the flow and indirectly helped Lu Yuan. I let you drink the Celestial Water and lost your memories.
“I should not have left this place earlier because I knew that you didn’t like the life of the royal family, and yet, for the sake of worrying about Hao’er …”
