In Luoyang City, in the Jade Xiao Tavern, there is an endless stream of customers, and it seems that business is very good.Although Luoyang City is located on the border of the Xiao family's forces, it has a large population and is extremely prosperous, and this Jade Xiao Tavern is the best restaurant in the city.In a remote corner of the hall on the third floor, a white-haired woman sat quietly by the window, looking at the crowd below, as if thinking about something.This woman looks to be in her early twenties, her appearance is delicate and elegant, and from a distance, she is a beautiful woman who is gentle and lovely, and has a refined temperament.It's a pity that she has a sad face now, as if she is preoccupied, and her whole body exudes a faint momentum, which discourages the rich sons who want to come forward to talk.Suddenly, a young man in a green shirt of about sixteen or seventeen years old walked at the entrance.The young man has a delicate appearance, fair skin, and a heroic spirit between his eyebrows, and the ladies who are seated on the third floor have peeked a little shyly, but it seems that this person is very pleasing to girls.The young man's gaze swept across the audience, and finally fixed on the white-haired woman.He seemed to hesitate for a moment, but walked over and sat down across from the woman in silence.The white-haired woman was slightly stunned, withdrew her gaze from the window, and looked at the young man in green shirt in front of her.She sighed lightly and said, "You were sent by Brother Teng to persuade me to go back, right?"
”"Let's go, I want to be alone for a while."
Originally, the two were the focus of attention of the audience, and the sons still had an attitude of learning to see how people talked to each other.Unexpectedly, it was an acquaintance, and they withdrew their gaze one after another, drinking and chatting with each other.The young man in the green shirt was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then smiled bitterly.This person is naturally Li Mufan.And this white-haired woman is his mother's concubine, Chu Bihai.Li Mufan didn't dress up in disguise, but his cultivation improved step by step, and under the adventures one after another, his appearance was already very different from that of the little boy back then.In addition, he has many magic weapons on his body, and even the heavens can be blinded, even if he is his own mother, it is difficult to recognize him.Looking at the calm face of the concubine, he was excited and wanted to recognize each other immediately, but in the end he held back and didn't say a word.Seeing that the young man in the green shirt was just looking at himself stunned, Chu Bihai said with some displeasure: "Let you go back first, the Xiao family is kind to me, and I won't make it difficult for you." ”Silence, or silence.After a long time, Li Mufan said slowly: "So, in your heart, have you already made a decision?"
”Chu Bihai glanced at him suspiciously, and then sighed lightly and said, "When I left the customs, the invitation had already been sent to the entire Zhongzhou. ”"Do you think I have a choice?"
She seemed to be saying to Li Mufan, and seemed to be whispering to herself: "If I regret my marriage, the Xiao family will definitely become a laughing stock......
"If it weren't for them, I would have died back then." ”"I can'......t, I can't," she said, her face darkened the more she spoke, and she raised her glass and drank it down.Maybe no matter how beautiful this wine is, it will be a bitter bar for her.Li Mufan silently poured her a cup and asked calmly, "Why don't you go and see your daughter?"
”"You should know where she is now, right?"
When Chu Bihai heard the word "daughter", he seemed to be touched by his heart, and there was a thin layer of mist in his eyes."
I ......"
"I left back then, and now I ...... again" "I don't have the face to see Mu Fan and Qingfeng ......"
A wry smile appeared at the corner of Li Mufan's mouth, and he shook his head and said: "Blood is thicker than water, maybe they want to see you......"
