The second day is the day when the little sister of the Zhu family gets married. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Sister-in-law Zhu is both happy and worried, happy that the little sister is older, and after getting married, she has children, and she has a serious situation in this life. The sad thing is that in her heart, Xiaomei is still the little girl who will only follow her and call "sister-in-law, sister-in-law" non-stop. Thinking that her thin shoulders have to take on the responsibility of being a wife, a daughter-in-law, and a mother in the future, she is very reluctant in her heart.

Hua Lianyue accompanied the neatly dressed little sister inside, and the red wedding dress with a whole set of jewelry inlaid with rubies really made the usually lively and active Zhu Xiaomei a little more dignified and demure.

Sister-in-law Zhu said the words over and over again, and Hua Lianyue heard that her ears were calloused, not to mention Zhu Xiaomei, who was to be married.

"Little sister, let me tell you, being a daughter-in-law must be steady and not impetuous, otherwise others will laugh at your brother and sister-in-law for not teaching your brother and sister-in-law ......well," When Sister-in-law Zhu started chattering again, Sister-in-law Li, who came in with a bowl of red dates, longan, egg syrup, and syrup, laughed.

"Okay, okay, look at my little sister who is so nagging that she is about to tear her clothes. Sister-in-law Li put the sugar water in front of Zhu Xiaomei, and said to Sister-in-law Zhu with a smile: "Go out and have a look, there are a lot of guests outside, Xiaomei, we are watching here!"

"It's okay, then I'll go out to greet the guests first, and you will accompany my little sister here, don't let her move. "Sister-in-law Zhu, who has always been shrewd and capable, is also busy and dizzy today and began to catch blind.

Zhu Xiaomei was already dizzy by her mind, and immediately nodded in agreement when she heard the words. This sister-in-law Zhu has already explained countless times, and being a daughter-in-law is no better than a girl. When a girl loves to move and laugh, it is called lively and cute, if you are a daughter-in-law or love to laugh, others will laugh.

It's a pity that the verbal promise is very good, but the body reaction is very sincere, and Sister-in-law Zhu went out on the front foot. She immediately stood up and moved her stiff legs and waist, Hua Lianyue and Sister-in-law Li looked at each other and smiled, but they didn't see it.

Sister-in-law Li smiled and said, "I still have some work to do today, so I will eat something to fill my stomach first." ”

Zhu Xiaomei said with a bitter face: "Sister-in-law Li, I'm scared, I can't eat!" A few days ago, she was busy preparing the dowry, and she was very happy and excited. It was really the day of marriage, coupled with Sister-in-law Zhu's constant chatter, Zhu Xiaomei gradually began to feel nervous and nervous, and began to be timid and panicked. After all, it is not easy to leave the familiar environment and enter a completely unfamiliar family.

"If you can't eat, you have to eat, if you don't have food in your stomach, how can you stay up until night. Sister-in-law Li only thought she was coquettish, and while pretending to be angry, she scooped a red jujube and handed it to her mouth. Zhu Xiaomei had to reluctantly open her mouth to take it, and the sweet dates in the past were as tasteless as chewing wax in her mouth at the moment.

"Hey, that's right!" Sister-in-law Li laughed, she stuffed the spoon into Zhu Xiaomei's hand, and admonished: "Be good, eat it all yourself, today is not the time to play with a child's temper." Zhu Xiaomei had to make a bitter face and eat slowly.

Loud voices outside the house, congratulatory voices are getting louder and louder. Sister-in-law Zhu estimated that one person was too busy. Sister-in-law Li is an anxious child, where can she still sit still. After she told Zhu Xiaomei a few more words, she hurriedly went out to help.

Hua Lianyue saw Zhu Xiaomei's bitter face, sipping the soup little by little, and she couldn't help but feel uncomfortable in her stomach. finally couldn't help but say: "Forget it, why force yourself if you can't eat." ”

But Sister-in-law Li, she said..... "Zhu Xiaomei is still a little hesitant.

Although what she said makes sense, but you can't eat now, if you really reluctantly drink this bowl of soup and water, and when you tore in the sedan chair, you spit it out, wouldn't it be even more ugly. ”

Hua Lianyue picked up the bowl in front of her, looked around, and suddenly showed a narrow smile. I saw her come to the table quickly, lift the coarse crockpot used to hold cold water on the table, and pour all the bowls of sugar water into it. Then he patted the water stains on his hands and said proudly: "Isn't this okay!"

Zhu Xiaomei sneered, and the previous tension and panic were alleviated a lot. Subsequently, Hua Liyue only found some light topics and chatted with her.

The noise outside became louder and louder, and there were faint firecrackers and gongs and drums.

Zhu Xiaomei, who was originally amused by Hua Lianyue a lot, was in a mess again when she heard this, and she said helplessly: "What should I do?"

Hua Lianyue smiled and said, "You don't have to do anything, just sit quietly, and wait for the groom to come and pick it ......up." Before the words fell, she raised her hand, and the big red hijab covered Zhu Xiaomei's shy cheeks.

"It's time to get on the sedan chair!"

It was Sister-in-law Li who spoke, and her voice was filled with irrepressible joy. Several women who helped also followed the swarm of bees and helped Zhu Xiaomei, who was sitting still, up from the bed.

Zhu Xiaomei stiffened, fell backwards vigorously, and couldn't drag her feet. Hua Lianyue, who was hiding aside and watching the excitement, couldn't help but purse her lips and snickered when she saw this.

Fortunately, the two women who helped her had the strength to stand her up. Under the bright red hijab, there was the sound of Zhu Xiaomei crying.

The smile on Hua Lianyue's face froze, why did she still cry?

Sister-in-law Li couldn't help laughing when she saw her ignorant. She explained in a low voice: "Don't worry, Miss, our new daughter-in-law here will cry when she gets married." After all, if you leave your relatives who have been raised for so many years, if you don't cry and make a fuss, you will leave with someone so happily. Others don't look like it, and the in-laws will dislike the new daughter-in-law for having no conscience. ”

Hua Lianyue really felt fresh when she heard it, and asked in a low voice, "Then how long will she cry?"

Sister-in-law Li smiled: "Naturally, if you step out of the threshold of your mother's house, you don't have to cry!" She walked over quickly, patted the back of Zhu Xiaomei's hand and persuaded: "Bride, your eldest brother and sister-in-law are still waiting outside, go and kowtow!"

Hearing Sister-in-law Li say this, Zhu Xiaomei slowly moved her steps while crying. The door opened, and the sound outside suddenly became louder, and some children clapped their hands and laughed: "The bride is out, the bride is out!"

There are also women who said happily: "The bride is crying and getting married, and this day will be more and more prosperous." ”

There were many people who came to give the wedding, and the small courtyard was crowded with people. Sister-in-law Li quietly pulled Hua Lianyue and said in a low voice: "Miss stay, there are many people outside and it is messy, I am afraid that I will accidentally bump into you." You just wait in the room for a while, and then come out when the wait is less. ”

Although Hua Lianyue has no shelf, but her identity is noble after all, if she is accidentally squeezed by someone who does not open her eyes, or is injured, Sister-in-law Li can't explain to Liu Gu if she asks herself.

Hua Lianyue could understand Sister-in-law Li's embarrassment, so she had to nod her head and take back the steps she had taken.

Sister-in-law Li asked Hua Lianyue to rest in Zhu Xiaomei's boudoir temporarily, and then led Zhu Xiaomei to kowtow to the eldest brother and sister-in-law of the Zhu family. After kowtowing, it was a long training and marriage, and various ceremonies, and finally she was sent to the sedan chair lively.

I heard a hearty shout: "Get up the sedan chair!" The sedan chair swayed up, and with the crackling sound of firecrackers, everyone stepped on a bright red confetti and walked forward.

This hustle and bustle lasted until the evening, when the bright moon hung high and the red candles shone high.

Liu Gu shuttled through the chaotic banquet until he saw Sister-in-law Li sitting in the corner drinking, and he hurriedly walked over. The guests who were drinking at the table stood up and toasted him.

Liu Gu's face was a little gloomy, and after a few perfunctory words at will, he said to Sister-in-law Li, "You come out!" and then turned to leave. Sister-in-law Li didn't know why, so she hurriedly put down her wine glass and said hello to her man, and hurriedly caught up with Liu Gu's footsteps and left the banquet.

When he arrived at a place where there were few people, Liu Gu frowned and asked, "Where did the moon girl go today?"

Sister-in-law Li hurriedly said: "Miss went to Zhu's house to get married today, didn't she tell you?"

Liu Gu's brows furrowed even tighter when he heard this, and he said in a deep voice: "She did tell me that I was going to Zhu's house today to get married, but now that Wei Ping has taken his daughter-in-law back to the new house, and even the banquet is about to be finished, why hasn't she come back yet?"

Sister-in-law Li was instantly blindsided, and she stammered, "Hasn't Miss returned home yet?"

"Nonsense!" Liu Gu said impatiently: "If she comes back, do I still need to ask you here!"

"I want to think about it, I want to think about it!" Sister-in-law Li was also anxious, she turned around a few times, and suddenly her eyes lit up, and said: "When the daughter-in-law of the Wei family got married before, I was afraid that there would be too many people to crowd the young lady, so that she could rest in the Zhu family for a while. Could it be that Miss, she is still staying at the Zhu family?"

Liu Gu clenched his fist and slammed into a camphor tree beside him, the trunk of the bucket trembled slightly, and countless thick green leaves floated down. Liu Gu said anxiously: "I have already asked people to see the Zhu family, and they all said that they have not seen her since the sedan chair for the wedding has left." ”

He muttered, "I have searched all over the General's Mansion, but no one has found any trace of her. Now that it's getting late, where else is she going?"

"Small, small...... Miss, she's missing?" Sister-in-law Li was frightened, the blood on her face faded, and her eyes were full of incredible horror.

The bright moon is sinking in the west, and the ancient town of Erna in the middle of the night is dark everywhere, there are no human figures in sight, and there are few lights, except for the half of the bright moon in the sky that brings light to the earth.

"General, I have searched all the streets and alleys of the town, but I have not found Miss. ”

"General, the soldiers guarding the city have all asked, but no one has seen the young lady go out of the city. ”

"General.....

As various news came, Liu Gu's face became more and more ugly and more solemn. In the darkness of the night, he secretly clenched his fists. Although Hua Lianyue is stubborn, she has not been involved in running away from home. But she will more or less leave some messages, or a letter, or a sentence, in short, she will not let her family worry about her.

This time she disappeared mysteriously, not only did she not have the slightest sign in advance, but she also did not leave a word afterwards, I am afraid that things are not so simple.

"General, the town and the town have been searched, but no trace of the young lady has been found!" Liu Gu stood up with a whoosh when the last soldier hesitated.

"Bastard, a big living person, how could he disappear without a trace, could it be that he has escaped from the sky?" After searching all night, Liu Gu's eyes were bloodshot, and anger burst out. The soldiers around him all bowed their heads and did not dare to speak, for fear of being affected by his anger.

.......

A gust of spring breeze blows, leaves rustle, and countless wildflowers dot the endless meadows. When the wind blows, it reveals hares and gerbils hiding under the roots of the grass.

On a road in Nuoda, there are several horse-drawn convoys driving unhurriedly. These carriages were full of goods, and their owners were merchants who frequently shuttled between Eastern Qin and Northern Underworld. The horse team is dominated by the Eastern Qin people, and occasionally mixed with a few Northern Underworld people.

At this moment, walking between the mountains and rivers of the Northern Underworld, those Eastern Qin merchants were no longer in a hurry to run for their lives, and even their footsteps became leisurely, and from time to time there was a soft singing sound of women from the carriage.

At this moment, a melodious sound of the piano sounded in the mountains and rivers, compared with those lingering and melancholy tunes, this piano sound seems to be tactful and quiet, especially light and pleasant, and elegant out of the dust.

I don't know what a beautiful woman can play such a beautiful sound of the piano, and many people around me are itching and stretching their necks to peep at the carriage that comes out of the piano sound. It's a pity that the bamboo curtain that hangs from beginning to end blocks out all their greedy sight.

Gradually, by midday, most people feel like they have stopped their rush and started preparing food for their stomachs. Soon, large and small fires were lit on the grass, and many men were in a hurry. Groups of three or five gathered together, began to boil wine, and roasted the small beasts that they had hunted along the way.

They drank and chewed unscrupulously, and some of them drank up, and they even ripped off their clothes, and closed their arms to find someone to fight for wine. A middle-aged man wearing a green cloth robe, a three-inch black beard, a dark face, and triangular eyes walked in front of them, and many people raised their voices to greet him: "Boss Liu, Boss Liu!"

Boss Liu nodded and answered, he sat down by a fire, took a roasted browned hare on the shelf, tore off a leg, and just wanted to send it to his mouth. Suddenly stopped, he looked at the carriage Nunu with the bamboo curtain hanging down on the side, and asked the people around him, "That one, can you come down for lunch?"

What he smelled was a young man in his early twenties. He shook his head and said, "I didn't see anyone coming down from the carriage." After saying that, he bit the rabbit in his hand and tore it hard, and then chewed it.

When Boss Liu heard this, he hurriedly asked someone to bring a bowl, tear off the roast rabbit meat cleanly, put it in a bowl, and send it to the carriage: "There is some clean rabbit meat here, can the girl use some?"

After a long time, a woman's gentle voice came from the carriage: "Put it down! Thank you Boss Liu for remembering!"

Boss Liu knew that the people in the car were strange and didn't like to show up in front of people. He didn't care, laughed twice, put the bowl on the carriage, and then respectfully pushed it away.

Boss Liu retreated to the fire and sat down, he took a roasted bamboo rat from the fire again, and bit it slowly. Suddenly, I heard a slight sound of the bamboo curtain, and it was lifted, and a thin woman with a white veil mask reached out and picked up the bowl he had put down.

At this moment, a small gust of wind blew, blowing the burning fire and sparkling. The thin veil tied around the woman's face was also lifted, revealing half of the woman's fair cheeks and a hideous old scar on the cheek.
