Guess who I am in the next world

After getting off the carriage, Xiao Qingmo and Chu Liuxiang found that Li Yuan was right in front of them. There were people coming and going, but the atmosphere was extremely heavy.

Chu Liuxiang's eyes sank, and she subconsciously pulled Xiao Qingmo who was beside her.

Li Yuan's servants came in and out, three or four young servants were standing in front of the door, hanging white silk on the door, everyone's face was full of sadness.And Li Xunhuan had already rushed into Li Garden, before he even had time to speak to them, only Tie Chuanjia remained beside the carriage, his resolute and rough face was full of grief.

He looked at Xiao Qingmo and Xiao Qingmo, his voice was hoarse, and his eyes were still red, "Master Chu, something happened to Li's house, the second young master probably won't have time to receive the two of you separately."

Thinking of what Li Xun Huan told them about the situation of the Li family, now there are only Li Xun Huan and his elder brother in the Li family. His elder brother is weak and sick, and has been sick all year round. With the current state of the Li family, it is not difficult to guess what happened.

Therefore, Chu Liuxiang nodded with a solemn expression, "Brother Li must be very busy today, I and Ah Yan are inconvenient to disturb you, we will stay in this city, and please tell Brother Li for me."

After all, they and Li Xunhuan just met, and now that something like this happened, it is impossible for them to stay in Li's residence, but as a friend, Chu Liuxiang couldn't just leave, so he had to stay nearby for a while, at least to wait. This matter is over, bid farewell to Li Xun Huan before leaving.

After Tie Chuanjia agreed, Chu Liuxiang pulled Xiao Qingmo and turned away.

Three days later.

Xiao Qingmo was having breakfast with Chu Liuxiang.

A lot of different colors were placed on the wooden table earlier, and because Xiao Qingmo is now short and has small arms and legs, he can only pretend to be lying on the table. He does not want to let Chu Liuxiang feed him in the public, so he had to abandon the table full of delicious food. Take a steamed bun and nibble on it in small bites.

Seeing him like this, Chu Liuxiang laughed heartily, but caring about the face of the child, she tried her best to hold it tight, cleared her throat and said: "I'm going to Li Garden today, you are still young, it is not convenient to go today, so you are here Can you wait for me in the house?"

Xiao Qingmo was startled when he heard the words, only then remembered that three days had passed.

The news of the death of the eldest son of the Li family had spread throughout the city, so they naturally knew the news, and three days later, it was the day of the burial. As Li Xunhuan's friend, it was common sense for Chu Liuxiang to go to pay his respects.

But in his opinion, Xiao Qingmo was just a child, and such things should naturally be avoided as much as possible.

Xiao Qingmo swallowed the steamed buns in his mouth, glanced at Chu Liuxiang, "Just go, don't worry about me."

Although he met Li Xunhuan not long ago, because he rescued the children in the bandit's den, Xiao Qingmo likes his temper, and he is also a good friend of Chu Liuxiang. Now that something happened at his home, Xiao Qingmo was of course worried and wanted to see it with his own eyes. look.As for why you say that——

"Forget it, you'd better stay with me!"

Chu Liuxiang looked helpless, and Ah Yan spoke simply, but he didn't mean to agree at all. After getting along for a few days, Chu Liuxiang also knew that he was not a "good boy" who obeyed others in everything. Such an answer would most likely be wrong. He will listen to himself, so instead of letting him go secretly, it is better to take it with him.

Xiao Qingmo raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his lips curled up. With his current appearance, he looked even cuter.

……

Li Yuan has a lot of people coming and going today. Although Li Xun Huan's official career is not going well, he has many friends and colleagues. The Li family is also a famous family, so there are naturally many people who come to pay their respects to Mr. Li's funeral.

When Xiao Qingmo and Chu Liuxiang saw Li Xunhuan, he was entertaining other people. In the flying paper dust and smoke, Xiao Qingmo and Xiao Qingmo saw Li Xunhuan's current appearance clearly.

I still remember when we first met, he was so high-spirited, and his elegant demeanor was heart-wrenching, but when we met again today, his whole body seemed to be covered with a layer of smoke, he looked dark and obscure, and his face was pale, with bloodshot eyes in his eyes. Full of grief and weariness.

Hearing their footsteps, Li Xun Huan turned his head to look, his lips curled up after seeing Xiao Qingmo and Chu Liuxiang, but there was no smile at all, only tiredness and sadness.

He first chatted with the guests beside him, and then walked towards Xiao Qingmo and the two of them.

"Brother Chu, Ah Yan."

Seeing his current appearance, Chu Liuxiang sighed in his heart, but he could only comfort him feebly, "Brother Li, please forgive me."

Amidst the mournful music resounding through Li Yuan, Li Xun Huan's expression remained unchanged, as if he had gone numb, and he replied in a low voice, "Thank you."

Then he turned his eyes and looked down at Xiao Qingmo. Even now, he still frowned and said, "Why did you bring Ah Yan with you? It's not right for him to be here. I'll send him to the backyard Bar."

Before Chu Liuxiang could answer, Xiao Qingmo tilted his head slightly, his baby-fat face was mixed with concern, and he looked Li Xunhuan up and down.

Li Xun Huan's condition can be seen by a discerning eye, but fortunately he knows martial arts, although his internal strength cannot be compared with Xiao Qingmo and Chu Liuxiang's, it is not bad, as long as he cultivates for a few days afterwards, he will be fine.

So he no longer refused, and nodded his head obediently, "Okay, I'll go to the backyard, don't be too sad, I don't think Mr. Li would like to see you like this."

Li Xun Huan was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect to be comforted by a child.Seeing Xiao Qingmo comforting himself with this childish little face, Li Xunhuan couldn't help but feel it was funny while his heart warmed up, so he raised his hand and patted Xiao Qingmo's head, "Okay, listen to Ah Yan."

Listening to the coaxing words, Xiao Qingmo's face was still being slapped, and Xiao Qingmo's little face couldn't help turning black. Considering Li Xunhuan's situation today, he just shook his head and followed the maid to the backyard go.

Compared with the people coming and going in front, Li Yuan's backyard was much colder, except for the occasional maid who walked through it, there was no one.

The maid arranged Xiao Qingmo in a pavilion, and placed a few plates of fruit cakes in the pavilion, then leaned over and stepped aside.

Xiao Qingmo had just finished his lunch, so he had no idea about these foods, so he just sat in the pavilion and enjoyed the scenery in Li Garden boredly.At the same time, he felt more and more inconvenient with his current appearance, and he didn't know when the system would help him restore his adult body shape.

Just thinking about whether to contact the system and ask about the progress of the research, Xiao Qingmo suddenly heard footsteps in the distance.His footsteps were light and weak, and he knew that the person coming was a woman, but he had never heard Li Xun Huan say that there were any female relatives in his family?

Looking up, I saw a peerless beauty, walking slowly with a food box.This woman perfectly meets the standards of a lady, with an elegant and dignified appearance, a myriad of demeanors, and every move is picturesque, but if you look closely, you can find that her eye sockets are red and swollen, and there is sadness between her brows.

When the woman approached, she saw Xiao Qingmo in the pavilion, her footsteps stopped for a moment, and then she walked over unconsciously, and asked the maid outside the pavilion, "Which family is this child from, why is he here?"

The maid leaned over with a respectful expression, "Miss Hui Biao, this is a child brought by the second young master's friend, because the front yard is not suitable for children, the second young master asked me to bring him here."

The woman was Lin Shiyin, who raised her eyes to look at Xiao Qingmo carefully. From a distance, she felt that the child was outstanding. When she got closer, she felt that he was exquisite and cute. She couldn't help but fell in love with him.

The sadness in his expression was slightly reduced, and he walked to Xiao Qingmo's side and said softly: "So it's the child of my cousin's friend, my name is Lin Shiyin, and Li Xunhuan is my cousin, you are probably bored here alone, right? I have some scriptures here, do you want to read them?"

For Xiao Qingmo, a five or six-year-old child, Lin Shiyin didn't have any taboos, and told him her boudoir name directly, so that Xiao Qingmo could rest assured.

Lin Shiyin didn't know the situation and didn't care about those etiquettes, but Xiao Qingmo knew that he was just a fake child. Naturally, he would not look at this kind of boudoir lady for a long time, so he quickly looked away and said politely: "Thank you Miss Lin, thank you I don't need it, I'll leave in a while."

"By the way, Miss Lin is Senior Li's cousin?"

There was a reason for Xiao Qingmo to ask this question. After he and Chu Liuxiang had connected minds, it was as if he had installed some couple radar. Although he didn't deliberately observe, when Lin Shiyin mentioned Li Xunhuan, the affection in his eyes didn't look like pure cousins, and he I also know that in the homes of high-ranking officials and nobles in ancient times, it was very common for cousins ​​to be together.

Lin Shiyin's cheeks were slightly red when she heard the words, even in the face of a child, her reserve as a woman made her embarrassed to speak out about her engagement with Li Xunhuan, so she just nodded and said: "Yes."

After speaking, she met Xiao Qingmo's clear eyes, and she couldn't help but look away. She always felt that the affection for her cousin in her heart was seen by the five or six-year-old child in front of her.

Lin Shiyin's cheeks were slightly flushed, she looked away slightly, and changed the subject: "My cousin didn't eat breakfast this morning, I'm going to deliver some food to my cousin."

As she said that, she looked up at the sky, "At this time, most of the people in front should have dispersed. Do you want to go there with me?"

Xiao Qingmo was already bored, so of course he would not refuse Lin Shiyin's invitation, so with a little effort, he jumped off the stone bench in the pavilion, and the corners of his white clothes fluttered. It can be called graceful.

The two returned to the front yard, and Li Xunhuan happened to be seeing off the last guest.

The guest was wearing brocade clothes, handsome in appearance, about [-] years old, arrogant and awe-inspiring in his actions, he was more than polite to Li Xun Huan but not friendly enough.

"Master Li, it's getting late, and I'm leaving first."

Li Xun Huan also bowed his hands to the other party to return the salute, "Master Zhao, please go slowly, I am sorry that I cannot get away and see Master Zhao off."

The corners of the young man's lips curled up, he gave a fake smile, turned around and left, before he ran into Lin Shiyin and Xiao Qingmo, the young man's eyes fell on Lin Shiyin with deep meaning, he hooked his lips, and then his eyes changed from Xiao Qingmo's. Flicking past him, he didn't pay attention to him, and walked out of Li Yuan directly.

Li Xun Huan didn't see the young man's eyes, he just turned around and saw Lin Shiyin, he couldn't help feeling warm in his heart, he walked over in a few steps, his eyebrows were gentle, "Cousin, why are you here? There are so many people here, it's not good if someone bumps into you. "

Lin Shiyin looked back, lifted the lunch box in her hand, and said softly: "Cousin, you didn't eat in the morning, I made some appetizers, you can eat some!"

The distance between the two was one meter, and there was no physical contact, but Xiao Qingmo somehow felt a little overwhelmed. Could it be that he ate too much in the morning?

Fortunately, this feeling didn't last long, and Chu Liuxiang walked over.

The arrival of Chu Liuxiang also brought Xiao Qingmo back to his senses. Seeing that the atmosphere of Li Xunhuan and Lin Shiyin's aloofness was broken, he asked curiously: "Senior Li, who was that person just now?"

Chu Liuxiang's walking steps suddenly stopped, looking at Xiao Qingmo raised his eyebrows, his eyebrows were deep, and he seemed to be aware of it.
