It was a sunny morning, the village was quiet, Li Ming, as always, drove a few cows to the pond, he was a notoriously poor boy in the village, since he can remember, he had to help herd cattle to earn some extra money, barely enough to maintain the family's food and clothing.
When he came to the side of the pond, there was a sudden sound of help, which frightened Li Ming, and the branch in his hand fell to the ground.
Li Ming threw down the stick and jumped into the river, he fluttered like a little frog, and soon swam to the girl's side, took her into his arms, and dragged her to the shore with the last of his strength.
But what Li Ming didn't expect was that this little girl was the only daughter of a famous family in the neighboring village!
Li Ming has seen Yun Yun a few times, and knows that she is a pampered and cared for eldest lady, but he didn't expect her to fall into the river and hang by a thread, fortunately, Li Ming, the "mud twister", is not in danger, otherwise.........
The little girl was paralyzed on the shore, Li Ming patted her on the back, trying to make her spit out the water in her stomach, and after a while, Yun Yun finally relieved herself and slowly opened her eyes.
"You...... Are you okay? Li Ming looked her up and down and asked with concern.
Yun Yun blinked her wet eyes, and was flashed by Li Ming's dark but innocent face, and she nodded hesitantly, as if she hadn't eased up.
At this moment, a sound of footsteps came from far and near, it turned out to be Yunyun's family, they searched for Yunyun in a hurry, and finally found her by the river, and everyone was relieved to see that Yunyun was safe and sound.
Yun Yun's mother stepped forward and hugged her tightly, tears came out of her eyes, Yun Yun's father also came forward to check, and left only a simple thank you before leaving, he didn't care too much, it was a matter of course for him to fall into the water to save people.
But since then, Li Ming's impression of Yunyun has never been erased, and as the days go by, Li Ming often feels that he will be able to see her again one day.
On the other side, Yunyun has also grown into a standard lady, she was taught dignified manners, gentle and elegant, as well as female red, embroidery, playing the piano and chanting poetry, and other arts in the boudoir, ready to return to the hometown in the future.
But even if Yun Yun accepted her fate on the surface, there was always a clear spring flowing in her heart, and the scene where Li Ming once saved her became an indelible memory in Yun Yun's heart.
Sometimes Yun Yun even secretly imagines that if she could be as brave and decisive as Li Ming, what kind of different life path would it be? But after all, she is just a lady who has been overcared for, where has she experienced such a thrilling life and death journey?
In this way, year after year, Yunyun's posture became more and more slim and beautiful. But the confusion in her heart was even worse, and she looked at the shadow in the mirror. It's not just Yunyun herself who sees it. There is also a self who is imprisoned by family background and identity.
Finally, fifteen years later, one summer day......
Li Ming was alone in the village herding the cows, the sun was shining on the earth, and the water surface of the stream was also shining, looking at the familiar everything in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a thousand thoughts in his heart, the past was like a gurgling stream, swinging a small whirlpool in his heart.
He remembered that he had bravely saved the little girl here....... Now that the little girl has grown up, I wonder what it will look like?
Li Ming's gaze was a little distracted staring at the stream, and he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart, at this moment, a sound of horses' hooves broke the silence, he followed the sound, only to see a big carriage inlaid with gold paint parked at the entrance of the village, the figure on the car was very familiar, it was the young lady who fell into the water and was rescued by him!
Time seems to have stopped for Yunyun, and now she is peerless, her complexion is very gorgeous, and her temperament is ethereal. Li Ming was stunned, and he couldn't recognize who this down-and-out beauty was.
Yun Yun also showed surprise when she saw Li Ming, she walked slowly, and her delicate face was full of disbelief. "You........ Are you the same little boy who saved me 15 years ago? Yun Yun's eyes widened and she asked with difficulty.
Li Ming suddenly realized, and nodded hurriedly: "Yes.... It's me," a nostalgic urge rippled through him.
"I'm finally ....... Found you! A relieved smile finally appeared on Yun Yun's face, and her eyes couldn't help but look at the young man in front of her who had saved herself.
Looking at Yun Yun's familiar and unfamiliar face, Li Ming's heart was full of mixed tastes and indescribable tastes, but Yun Yun found Li Ming, but her heart was extremely excited, fifteen years, she had never forgotten this young man who had saved her life.
"Do you remember what happened back then?" Yun Yun's eyes were red, her tone was a little choked, Li Ming nodded, of course she remembered, that scene seemed to have happened yesterday, and she would never forget it.
Seeing Li Ming nodding seriously, two lines of hot tears welled up in Yunyun's eyes, and the tears couldn't stop flowing down. She said in a trembling voice, "It's you....... It was you who rushed into the water and dragged me out of the flowing river, regardless of your own safety.... If it weren't for you, I'm afraid..."
Yun Yun couldn't go on, choked up so much, Li Ming couldn't help but feel sad when he saw it in his eyes, he had never seen this elegant eldest lady crying so sadly.
"If it weren't for your bravery, I would ..... will forever become a wisp of dead soul in the stream....." Yun Yun cried so much that she was incoherent, Li Ming hurriedly took out a handkerchief from his arms and handed it to her.
Yun Yun took it and wiped her face vigorously, only then did she breathe down, she took a deep breath, raised her head stubbornly, and her eyes were firm and sincere: "Fifteen years, I have never forgotten your life-saving grace!" I have come here today to express my sincerest gratitude to you as a well-deserved hero! ”
Li Ming was deeply moved by Yun Yun's words, but he still waved his hand humbly: "At that time, the situation was critical, and I was just improvised, which was not a heroic feat." ”
"No, no, no!" Yun Yun shook her head eagerly, "You are the real hero!" You saved my life, how can I not be grateful? As she spoke, Yun Yun turned out to be weak on her knees and knelt on the dust in front of Li Ming!
"My family is very rich now, please accept this one hundred taels of gold, just take it as a little bit of my heart," Yun Yun took out a brocade box with both hands, and bowed down to offer it with both hands.
Li Ming was shocked when he saw the brocade box full of gold! He hurriedly stretched out his hand to help Yun Yun up, waved his hand and refused: "No, no!" How does this work! I just did what I did back then, and I can't stand it if you thank me with so much gold. ”
Yun Yun desperately stuffed the brocade box into Li Ming's hand, and pleaded with tears in her eyes: "Take it, it should be a piece of my heart!" You saved me, but I can't even repay you with a little heart, so isn't it too bad for me? ”
Looking at Yun Yun's sincere eyes, Li Ming's heart fell into a deep entanglement, of course he couldn't just accept Yun Yun's heavy thank you gift, it would be uneasy to do so, but if he refused Yun Yun's heart, he was afraid of hurting her heart.
Just as the two were at a stalemate, Yun Yun suddenly spoke, her voice firm and sincere: "Maybe you think my thank you gift is too much.... As a poor boy, you may not have thought of the heart of our rich family, right? ”
Li Ming's heart was suddenly deeply pierced by these words! He froze in place, speechless for a long time.
Seeing Li Ming's injured expression, Yun Yun regretted it a little, and hurriedly stepped forward to hold his hand, and said sincerely: "I'm sorry, I was too heavy just now, I didn't mean to offend you.... It's just that you saved my life, I really can't think of anything other than wealth, you see, if you hadn't saved me at the risk of personal safety, I'm only afraid of ....."
Yun Yun said this, tears burst out of her eyes again, Li Ming saw it in his eyes, and his heart was throbbing for a while.
He finally understood Yun Yun's hard work, as the daughter of a rich family, she really has nothing else to give except money, and saving someone's life is indeed a great act that requires all her strength, how can money be balanced?
Thinking of this, Li Ming's heart was also completely moved by Yun Yun's sincerity, he stepped forward, solemnly patted Yun Yun's thin shoulder, and said sincerely: "Yun Yun, I know that you are out of the most sincere gratitude, but I can't accept your money." But there's one thing you might promise me......."
Yun Yun looked at him suspiciously, and nodded expectantly, "Just let me come to your house often to live, be entertained by your rich family, and experience your life." Li Ming said: "It's just as you repaying my heart......."
Yun Yun was stunned for a moment, then she smiled, tears repeatedly burst the embankment, she couldn't help but throw herself into Li Ming's arms, crying bitterly: "Okay, great! "I must ..... Be sure to treat you well and repay your great kindness with actions! ”
Li Ming was moved to tears by Yunyun's intimate hug, and it turned out that a sincere friendship that crossed classes was finally waited and seen after 15 years.
From then on, Li Ming became a guest of the Ren family, he often took Yun Yun's hotel car back and forth between the two places, and sometimes stayed there for a few days.
And Li Ming also has a deeper understanding of the lifestyle of Yun Yun's family, and has seen the extravagant life of the rich family, but he also feels the emptiness and loneliness in his heart, sometimes Yun Yun will confide in him his inner troubles, and Li Ming will also answer and comfort her.
The two comforted each other in this way, moved forward hand in hand, and walked through endless difficulties and obstacles together, although Li Ming has always been a child of a poor family, and Yun Yun has always been the daughter of a rich family, but their friendship has long transcended the barriers of identity and class.
