Liu Lanzhi had only been home for more than ten days, and the county order sent a matchmaker to the door. The matchmaker said that there is a third son in the county family, who is beautiful and elegant, unparalleled in the world, only eighteen or nineteen years old, very eloquent, and very capable.
Liu's mother said to her daughter, "You can go and promise him." ”
The daughter replied with tears in her eyes: "When Lanzhi just came back, Zhongqing repeatedly told me that we made a vow never to separate. Today is against the meaning of the situation, I'm afraid this matter is not appropriate, so you can refuse to talk about the matchmaker, and then talk about this matter slowly. ”
Liu's mother told the matchmaker: "Our daughter, she was divorced and returned to her parents' house soon after she got married, she can't be the wife of the government official, how can she be worthy of the son of the county lord? ”
One day, Lanzhi was walking on the street and was met by Xie Kun, who recognized her at a glance as the reincarnation of Yuko, and asked his subordinates, "Who is this woman?"
"She is Liu Lanzhi. ”
"Liu Lanzhi ......?"
Xie Kun thought: Is it really that there is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it, and it actually makes him meet Liu Lanzhi? This is a good opportunity to lure Xu Fu to appear, and this time he must catch Xu Fu.
Xie Kun said to his subordinates: "Help me ask for marriage, I want to marry Liu Lanzhi." ”
"What, boss, although Liu Lanzhi is beautiful and moving, she is an ominous woman, I heard that she was driven back to her parents' house by her husband, and she is still a woman with a broken palm. ”
"She's married...... presumably her husband is Xu Fu, right?"
"Don't talk nonsense, I will marry this woman, you will help me send a matchmaker to Liu's house to say goodbye. ”
Xie Kun sent a matchmaker to ask for marriage, and the matchmaker said: "Uncle Xie Kun is interested in your daughter and wants to marry your family, so he sent me to your house to talk to the matchmaker." ”
Liu's mother refused the matchmaker and said: "My daughter has made a vow before, how dare I tell the old woman about remarrying?"
When Lanzhi's brother heard that Xie Kun's marriage proposal was rejected, he was upset, and said to his sister: "Why don't you think about making such a plan? The last time you got a marriage was a small official and a poor scholar, but I heard that Xie Kun is powerful and powerful, and his family has a lot of money, and this time you can get such a rich man by marrying him, and the difference between your luck is like heaven and earth, and good luck is enough to make you rich and prosperous for life, if you don't marry such a rich man, what are you going to do in the future?"
Laneige looked up and replied, "The truth is indeed the same as what my brother said, I left my mother's house to serve my husband and returned to my brother's house halfway. How to deal with completely obeying my brother's idea, how dare I make my own decisions? Although I made an oath with Zhong Qing, I will never have a chance to meet him again. You can immediately agree to Xie Kun's family business, and you can get married. ”
Xie Kun's matchmaker got up from his seat and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, do it, do it." ”
She went back to report to Xie Kun and said: "I accept the mission you gave me and go to Liu's house to be a matchmaker, which is very fateful, and said that the matchmaker is very successful." ”
Xie Kun was very happy when he heard these words, and immediately checked the wedding calendar, and then looked at the wedding book, and told the matchmaker: "The wedding date is set within this month, it is very auspicious, the year, month, and day are very suitable, the good day is on the thirtieth day, today is the twenty-seventh, you hurry up and go to Liu's house to set a wedding date." ”
Everyone in the Xie Mansion said to each other: "Hurry up and plan the wedding!"
The wedding ceremony was held like clouds in the sky, and the boat containing the wedding belongings was painted with blue finches and white swans, and flags embroidered with dragons hung at the four corners, fluttering gently in the wind. The golden chariot has white jade inlaid wheels, and the green horse is slowly marching, and it is covered with a saddle with colorful tassels hanging around and gold ornaments carved underneath. The bride price given was 3 million taels, all of which were worn with cyan silk thread, and there were 300 horses of various colors of silk and satin, which were purchased from Jiaozhou and Guangzhou. There were four or five hundred followers, and they came to Xie Mansion in a lively and lively manner.
The mother said to her daughter: "I just received a letter from Xie Kun, and I will come to marry you tomorrow, why don't you make bridal clothes? ”
Laneige remained silent, covering her mouth with a handkerchief and crying, tears pouring down like running water. She was sitting on a glass couch, moved out and placed it under the front window, holding scissors and a ruler in her left hand, and silk and satin in her right hand to make clothes, which were embroidered skirts in the morning and single shirts in the evening. The gloomy sky was about to get dark, and Laneige was full of thoughts, and walked out of the door crying incessantly.
Zhong Qing heard about this change, so he asked for leave and came back temporarily, he wanted to prevent Lanzhi from marrying someone else, and immediately rushed to Liu's house, and when he arrived at Lanzhi's house, there were still twenty or thirty miles away, others were sad, and the horse was also wailing.
Lanzhi was about to get married, just when the cow was neighing and the horse neighed, Liu Lanzhi walked into the green cloth tent for the wedding, and after the dark and gloomy dusk, quietly, people began to rest. Laneige said to himself: "My life is over today, and the soul is leaving, so let this corpse stay in the world for a long time." ”
So Laneige pulled up her skirt, took off her silk shoes, and wandered for a while under the tree in the courtyard, and hanged herself from the branch facing southeast.
When Zhong Qing arrived, it was too late, he looked at Lanzhi's corpse, cried bitterly, hugged Lanzhi's corpse tightly, Zhong Qing was sad and sad, and couldn't help himself for a long time.
Xie Kun heard that Liu Lanzhi, whom he was going to marry, committed suicide and died, so he also hurried to Liu's house, ready to ask Xingshi to ask for guilt. But Liu Lanzhi's body has disappeared, and he has no chance to see Jiao Zhongqing.
Zhong Qing left Liu's house with Lanzhi's body, and he buried Lanzhi's body at the foot of Huashan Mountain. Pine and cypress trees were planted on the east and west sides of the tomb, and plane trees and paulownia trees were planted on the left and right sides of the tomb, and the branches of these trees were covered with each other, and the leaves were connected to each other.
There was a pair of flying birds in the tree, their names were mandarin ducks, they raised their heads and called each other, and they called until the fifth watch every night. The walker stopped and listened, and the widow heard it, and got up from her bed, and her heart was very troubled.
