Chapter 852: On the eve of the great change
Cheng Xiaoyu stood in the convenience store and watched the TV report, almost even his jaw dropped, he thought about 10,000 identities of Ijiin Jingmei, but he didn't expect this kind of somewhat unrealistic identity. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Xu Qinning looked at Cheng Xiaoyu's slightly open mouth, his eyes were about to stare out of shock, and asked suspiciously, "Xiaoyu, what's wrong?" She knew some of the Chinese characters on TV, but she didn't know most of the hiragana, but she still knew the words "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince", and she felt something in her heart, but she was not sure.
Cheng Xiaoyu took a breath, glanced at Xu Qinning, and said in a somewhat unbelievable tone: "Just now the news said that Sister Jingmei and the neon crown prince are engaged!" Weddings may take place in the summer..........."
Hearing the news, Xu Qinning couldn't help but be surprised, "Huh? "Come out," that means that Sister Jingmei will become the crown princess, the future neon queen? ”
Cheng Xiaoyu nodded, the two of them paid the bill, and they were still immersed in this huge gossip and didn't come back to their senses.
Although Xu Qinning is well-informed, and she has seen a lot of big names in China, but the extremely classical words of prince and princess still have a sense of crossing for her, so they have a stronger impact, which makes her feel a little magical, she took Cheng Xiaoyu's hand and asked sideways: "Do you think Sister Jingmei will invite us to her wedding?" ”
Cheng Xiaoyu shook his head and said he didn't know, then sighed and said, "Actually, I think Sister Jingmei may not like such a marriage........"
Xu Qinning never planned to live according to his father's will, and marriage would not call Xu Jiacheng to decide, but her situation was much better, first Xu Qinning was Xu Jiacheng's only daughter, and she was the pearl of his palm, he would naturally respect Xu Qinning's wishes to a certain extent, and secondly, he had many sons, and those sons who wanted to inherit the family business were all willing to sacrifice for political marriage, in fact, Xu Qinning felt that as long as he wanted to resist, there was nothing he couldn't do. Therefore, she wondered how an independent woman like Shizumi Ijiin could choose to submit and live, so she frowned and asked, "Huh? Why? ”
Cheng Xiaoyu actually doesn't quite understand how much pressure there is on the neon tradition, and he doesn't know that the neon royal family and the Chinese rarely intermarry with ordinary people now, he just knows that she is actually a little depressed in her heart based on the usual chat with Jingmei of Yijiyuan, Cheng Xiaoyu said: "You see we have known Sister Jingmei for a while, she is usually very close to us, and she has also said that she is about to get engaged, but she doesn't want to tell us who the engagement partner is, and she doesn't want to discuss marriage. It shows that she actually has no expectations for marriage! ”
Xu Qinning didn't think that Jingmei of Ijiin was the kind of person who easily succumbed to the family, so she said, "It's also possible that she doesn't have a good relationship with us........ Besides, it's to be a queen! Every girl may have a princess or queen dream in her heart! ”
Cheng Xiaoyu smiled noncommittally and said: "Of course, there is also this possibility....... but he felt that it was definitely not because the relationship between them was not good enough, he still clearly remembered what she said to him with a lonely expression after driving the 911 drag racing car in Ijiin Jingmei that day, she described her life as a tram that could not be derailed, and she could understand that she was actually just powerless to resist.
Thinking of Su Yuxi, at this moment, Cheng Xiaoyu has never hated political marriage like this, but what hurts his heart is that it doesn't seem to change anything, from ancient times to the present, political marriage is one of the means for the family to survive. This kind of means of deeply implanting transactions in love has long historical roots, is inevitable, and will not die, you must know that even such beautiful words as "Qin and Jin are good" are allusions from political marriages.
In fact, even if it is an ordinary person's marriage, there is no political factor mixed with it, as long as people are related to each other, politics will arise. There are many political things in marriage, which involves issues of personal freedom, dignity, property, etc., as well as the issue of domination and domination, and many of the civil liberties stipulated in the constitution actually do not exist in marriage.
Therefore, most of us live in political marriages, and of course there is pure love, but that is only a minority.
Cheng Xiaoyu returned home and took out the two postcards he bought, what he chose for Jingmei in Yijiyuan was a lonely colorful sailboat floating on the sea at dusk, he thought about it and wrote behind his back: Sister Jingmei, thank you for the sentence you wrote to me, I also have a message to encourage you, either you want to open a little to conform to life, or resolutely resist and boldly do it, anyway, in the end, none of us want to leave this world alive. I wish you a happy new year, Cheng Xiaoyu.
The other is a postcard of the night view of Tokyo Tower, and he wrote a line in a beautiful font: "You are like the night, with silence and stars." But this one may be a greeting that I may never be able to deliver.
Cheng Xiaoyu sandwiched the one written in the back into his five-line book, and then wrote the address of her home on the first "New Year's Greeting Certificate" written to Jingmei in Yijiyuan, and lived for more than a week, this Cheng Xiaoyu still knew that he planned to throw it into the mailbox after lunch, although the blessing would arrive later, it was better than nothing.
Waiting for Wang Ou and Chen Haoran to come over and finish lunch, their plan is to go to the shrine or temple on the first day of the New Year according to the neon custom, these are the ideas that Jingmei of Ijiin gave them last night, and she jokingly told Cheng Xiaoyu yesterday: "Today is the day when our neon women wear the most kimonos, it turned out to be the first day of the Lunar New Year, and now it is New Year's Day. ”
"Families wear beautiful kimonos and go to shrines or temples to pray for the New Year, which is also a major custom that we neon people have preserved to this day. At the same time, neon families have to put "door pine" made of bamboo and pine branches in front of their homes, or hang offerings made of straw at the door to welcome the arrival of the God of Wealth. ”
Cheng Xiaoyu didn't know where else to go, so naturally he could only go to the place chosen by Jingmei in Ijiin for them, and the place where Cheng Xiaoyu took Xu Qinning, Xia Shamo, Wang Ou, and Chen Haoran to go was naturally "Meiji Jingu", and after sending the "New Year's Certificate", Cheng Xiaoyu and they called a driver to drive them to the Meiji Shrine located in Yoyogi, along the way, several people were still discussing the identity of the princess of Shizumi in Ijiin, and when Wang Ou and Chen Haoran learned the news when they started eating, they regretted that they didn't take a photo with Shizumi in Ijiin alone, I am probably embarrassed to make this request in the future.
This made Wang Ou especially sigh.
The first half-time of the new year, the neon people call it the shrine first ceremony, many of them complete the shrine first ceremony in the early morning of January 1 after listening to the bell, and on New Year's Day, the neon train is open all night.
Yesterday, because of time, they didn't go to the shrine after watching the fireworks.,It's also Shizumi of Ijiin who wants to propose to go back early.。
When a few people came to the shrine, they found that it was more lively than they imagined, and it was simply crowded. Although it was crowded, it was orderly, and everyone was quite politely lined up and moved under the command of the police.
The first thing to do before entering the shrine is to wash your hands, which according to the neon tradition, is not a matter of a long time, but of a wet hand to ensure that it has a clean effect. Cheng Xiaoyu and the others followed the team and slowly moved outside the main hall, and they were not far from paying homage.
During the New Year's visit, due to the large number of people, the shrine replaces the traditional money box with a large white cloth. It is advisable to throw money on a white cloth for 5 yen yen, as this is the same pronunciation as "kyu" in Japanese.
After a few people finished paying homage, under the leadership of Xu Qinning, they began to buy and buy at the shrine, and Xu Qinning didn't care whether he needed it or not, and threw interesting things into his pocket when he saw them.
And Xia Shamo bought all kinds of talismans for Cheng Xiaoyu, and the magic arrows, windmills and other sacrifices were burned in the temple, and she heard Shizumi of Ijiin last night tell her that this could remove the bad luck of the old year, so as to pray for peace and good luck in the new year.
Five people tossed around all afternoon, and several people were tired, hungry and excited at this time. After following the signs out of the shrine, there are many food stalls around the shrine to soothe the stomachs of the worshippers. There are a variety of ramen and skewers on the stalls, and it is worth mentioning a kind of sweet sake, which is sweet and warm when you drink it in a big sip, and the whole person is satisfied!
Then Xu Qinning, who was still unsatisfied, took a few more people to Ginza to go shopping, and when he went back, Cheng Xiaoyu received a text message from Jingmei of Yijiyuan, telling him to tell him to watch "whispering".
Because Sakurai Shou publicly published a video on his "whisper" today, he knelt down to apologize to Cheng Xiaoyu.
Of course, such an apology is insincere, and he didn't even dare to do it in front of Cheng Xiaoyu, he just recorded a video by trick, and it was not a serious thing for the neon people to kneel down and apologize, Sakurai Shou didn't do it, I think if it weren't for the identity of Princess Shizumi of Ijiin Temple being exposed, Sakurai Shou would not have sent an apology video so quickly.
Sakurai Shou apologized in "whispering", and in doing so, he not only fulfilled his promise and achieved his goal, but also did not give Cheng Xiaoyu a chance to humiliate him, and it was also regarded as giving Shizumi Ijiin an explanation.
Cheng Xiaoyu actually didn't care too much about Sakurai Shou, he casually replied to the text message of Shizumi Ijiin, and did not mention that he already knew the identity of Shizumi Ijiin.
It's just that Cheng Xiaoyu didn't know that although he didn't care about Sakurai Shou's perfunctory attitude, someone cared, and quickly took action to give Sakurai Shou a profound lesson for him........... (To be continued.) )
