It was late at night, and the village was silent.

Yang Yulang heard his father's snoring and knew that the second elder had fallen asleep. He got up quietly, carried the explosives prepared in advance, and went out with the door in his arms, and swaggered straight to the Mochizuki Pavilion like a warrior who had generously died.

The moon has set, the surroundings are gray, and the barrage waterfall not far away makes a mournful murmur, it does not have the heroism of spring, nor the passion of summer, only a little bit of freedom left over from autumn

Play to your heart's content.

Yang Yulang came to the Moon Pavilion and quietly waited for Xiumei's arrival.

Suddenly, a little candlelight not far away slowly moved to this side, Yang Yulang's heart tightened, could it be Mei'er? Closer, closer......

"Mer, is that you?" Yang Yulang called softly.

There was no response, and Yang Yulang began to feel uneasy, could something happen? It stands to reason that Mei'er should have come at this time.

As expected. The visitor walked up to Yang Yulang and said quietly: "You are Yang Yulang." Don't wait, Xiumei won't come.

He wants me to tell you, that even if all the men of the world are dead, they will not marry you, unless the sun comes out of the west. My name is Liu Youde, and I am Xiumei's husband. ”

"No, Xiumei loves me, she won't change her mind. You must have been a ghost and deliberately broke us apart. Yang Yulang grabbed Liu Youde's clothes and yelled hysterically.

"Believe it or not. Think about it, without the orders of your parents and the words of the matchmaker, would Xiumei marry you? Your family is so poor, will Xiumei follow you to suffer for the rest of your life? In my opinion, it's better to be serious

It's good, so that everyone won't hurt the peace. Liu Youde said with a victorious attitude.

"How old are you? Teach me a lesson. You don't pee like what you look like? Will Xiumei like you? Blow it yourself! It's really a toad that wants to eat swan meat. Yang Yulang sneered.

"My toad wants to eat swan meat? You poor boy wait and see who laughs last. Liu Youde put down his words and left angrily.

"Young Master Liu, don't go! The three of us will make it clear tonight, so that we don't hurt the peace. Xiumei exclaimed.

Liu Youde turned around and walked over, he only felt a cramping pain in his heart, squatted down, held his head in his hands, and secretly wept.

Xiumei came to Yang Yulang's side and said angrily: "Yulang, what you said just now hurt Young Master Liu's self-esteem too much. Do you know? If it weren't for Young Master Liu's nod, there would be no hope for the two of us. Today is

On the day when the Liu family welcomes their relatives, it stands to reason that I will be his wife tomorrow. But when I told him everything, he agreed to give you a chance. ””

Yang Yulang listened to Xiumei's words and was confused, he didn't understand what had happened? According to Liu Youde's character, it is impossible to give Mei'er away on the day of greeting relatives, and there must be a relationship between the two

What is the agreement?

"Mei'er, what's going on? Tell me quickly. Yang Yulang asked impatiently.

"Here's what happened...... Xiumei told Yang Yulang about the situation, and Yang Yulang suddenly realized when he heard it.

"It turns out that Liu Youde has such a wishful thinking in his heart, and I must let his wishful thinking come to naught."

So he said: "Young Master Liu, I didn't expect you to have such a style, I really live the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain." We apologize for the offense. ”

"It doesn't matter, love is deep, hate is deep. I don't care. Liu Youde said with a generous and decent look.

"Young Master Liu, this Moon Pavilion is where Yulang and I have played since childhood, there are many stories between us, if you don't mind, stay and listen to it!!" Xiumei said nonchalantly.

Liu Youde had no choice but to stay and listen to them.

"When I was a child, I played games with Yulang and a few of my peers here, I played the bride, and Yulang played the groom, and my friends carried us and shouted: The bride and groom worship heaven and earth - so, I

The two of them worshiped heaven and earth here, making everyone happy to jump.

At that time, we were carefree and unsuspicious, and the people in the village said that we were the golden boys and girls of the sky. Xiumei couldn't help but laugh when she remembered those absurd things when she was a child.

"I didn't expect that today, more than ten years later, we are still here looking back on the past, but unfortunately, things are not people. Fortunately tonight, I am accompanied by Young Master Liu, and I am not lonely. Yulang smiled bitterly.

"Gyokuro, do you remember? Once, you slept here like a dead pig, and I took a straw and poked your nostrils a few times before you woke up. When you wake up, you find it me

, they chased after me and tried to beat me, but fortunately I walked fast and hid. I was naughty at that time, what about you? Competitive. Xiumei said with a smile.

"Laugh at me, what about you? Once, when you went swimming with us boys, you almost drowned, and I reached out and pulled you up. Yulang sneered.

"You always like to be a hero."

"How can a bad hero win your heart?"

“……”

“……”

The two of them were chatting happily, Liu Youde was impatient to listen on the side, and said: "Xiumei, you two are talking to me and me, endlessly, do you remember the gentleman's agreement between us?" If you remember, horses

Come with me. Liu Youde shouted, Li Xiumei suddenly realized this, she put away her smile, and said to Yulang: "Yulang, if you are willing to marry me, find a way to prepare a bride price of 10,000 taels of silver." Remember, there's only one year. ”

Yang Yulang didn't say anything, he watched Liu You disappear into the night with Xiumei, and suddenly a sadness welled up in his heart.

In the dead of night, everything is silent, and the water waves of the Xijiang River are silent.

Yang Yulang looked at the river in a daze, he really wanted to jump down for a hundred years. When he thought of his elderly parents, remembered that they had worked hard to bring himself up, and remembered the days of their two old men in the future, his heart felt for a while

Colic.

"I can't die! My elderly parents at home are looking forward to my old age, how can I be worthy of their nurturing grace when I die like this?

Besides, Xiumei pinned her hopes on me, even if it was difficult, she had to give it a try. How easy is it to earn 10,000 taels of silver a year?

This is Liu Youde's deliberate difficulty. What am I going to do? Do you just give up so easily? Mei'er is my favorite, and for her, I am willing to go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire. For the sake of Mer, I have to work hard to earn money. Thinking of this, Yang Yulang decided to go out and try his luck.

Yang Yulang stayed by the river for most of the hour, seeing the sparkling river surface and the moon shadow in the water, as if he saw the future of him and Xiumei.

When he returned home, the rooster had already crowed, and Yang Yulang lay down with his clothes and slept hazy with his head covered.
