Chapter 43: The Victor, the Outsider, the Fragility of the Hedgehog
Lin Yu got up early in the morning in order to see the excitement, the weather was very sunny, but it was very windy and cold. Lin Yu was thickly wrapped and ready to go out, but was pulled by Qingqing, checked it for her, and the two went out together, Qingqing not only hired a carriage at the car dealership but also brought pearls because she wanted to buy a lot of fragrance ingredients, and the restaurant Lin Yu was looking for was very close, just walk over. However, Lin Yu was also unable to streamline his administration, followed by two little tails, twins Xuemei and Xuelan. This was ordered by Qingqing, first, Lin Yu went out alone, she was a little uneasy, and second, naturally let Lin Yu have a scruple and not cause anything because of impulsiveness.
Although Lin Yu felt that she didn't envy and hate such feelings at all, she basically would not refuse as long as it was someone else's kindness, so the twins had been following her. Such a big, two, small and three little beauties walking on the street are quite rebellious.
Although Xue Lan and Xue Mei are very beautiful, they are authentic rural people and have never been to the city. It was their first time shopping, so they were very excited to take a look around. Compared with Lin Yu, the performance of these two girls who are closer to their teens is a little childish but cute. On the road, some people sell some silk threads, and some snacks, both of them have this month's monthly money, and one person buys a pair of silk flowers. Lin Yu walked slowly, and when they walked over, the two of them were looking at the sugar gourd and salivating but they were reluctant to buy it, probably because they had just bought silk flowers, and they felt that it would be a bit of a waste to buy sugar gourds again.
Lin Yu smiled and asked the sugar gourd vendor, "How much is a string?" ”
"Such a small one is a string, a larger one is two articles, and three is two strings." The vendor laughed, "My sugar gourd is a good hawthorn grown by myself, and I use good rock sugar." ”
"Get me two big bunches." Lin Yu took out three pennies from his purse and handed it to the vendor, and after the vendor took the money, he handed Lin Yu two strings of sugar gourds.
Lin Yu didn't eat it herself, she was not able to eat sour things in her previous life, and after she was reborn, she didn't know if it was a psychological factor, and she still had her teeth after eating sour fruits. She handed the sugar gourd to the twins, but they didn't take either.
"Miss, won't you eat?" The younger sister of the twins asked.
"You forgot, the last time I ate a lime, I couldn't eat for half a day?" The more Lin Yu got along, the more she felt that the twins were cute, and she couldn't help touching her head, "You guys eat it, if I want to eat it, I'll definitely buy more skewers." ”
Hearing this, the two reached out to take the sugar gourd and ate it, but what made Lin Yu strange was that the expression on her sister's face was obviously not happy.
"Xuelan, what's wrong? Don't like to eat? Still doesn't taste good? Lin Yu was a little puzzled, just now the two girls were obviously very interested in sugar gourds.
"No, miss, I remember what happened before." Xue Lan barely pulled out a smile, "In the past, before my stepmother entered the door, my father bought me and my sister two sugar gourds or a few pieces of osmanthus candy every time I went to the market. ”
Lin Yu is also quite helpless about this kind of thing. The life experience of the twins, she has already heard Ren Yapo say it once, because Ren Yapo's father and mother are from the same Zhuangzi, and Ren Yapo is still very clear. Although the twins' family doesn't have much money, it's by no means the kind that can't get by, but their father just listened to the words of the wife he married, if it weren't for the orchid on Ren Yapo's tongue, he would have sold it directly to the Qinglou. In her previous life, her parents loved her very much, and she had a good relationship with her parents, so she couldn't imagine such parents, so she had to touch Xue Lan's head.
"It's all over, don't think about those unpleasant things."
"Well, I think the current life is very good, I can eat enough every day, and I don't have to be cold, the two young ladies are very kind and don't scold." After all, Xue Lan is not very old, but she has not been silent for too long, and she was soon attracted by the paper-cuts sold on the roadside. And Lin Yu rarely saw this kind of traditional skill in his previous life, and he also thought it was very interesting, so he bought more than a dozen of them and planned to paste them in the house for a scene.
Because of these episodes, Lin Yu didn't arrive very early, there were really a lot of people in the restaurant, if there were absolutely no seats booked, it can be seen that there were still a lot of idlers. Of course, it is also because this marriage is too noisy, and the woman is famous for being rich and extravagant.
Lin Yu ordered morning tea, two porridge products, two desserts, four dim sum, and four cold dishes. Although there are many people in the restaurant, the little second-hand feet are quite fast, and Lin Yu has all the food not long after he sits down.
Lin Yu wasn't very hungry either, so he casually brought a bowl of porridge and sandwiched a few chopsticks and pork jelly to taste, well, it was better to make it himself. She still thought about it in her heart, Xuemei couldn't help but speak, and Lin Yu didn't bother to care about them, so she let them chatter.
It didn't take long to see the sedan chair man wearing bright clothes carrying a large sedan chair of eight people, the big red sedan chair was decorated with tassel embroidery and crystals and pearls, the wind was strong, the curtain tassels were fluttering with the wind, and it was even more gorgeous. Following behind the sedan chair is the person who follows the team to send the wedding. Some onlookers had already seen the dowry yesterday and began to explain it to others. The bride's dowry is one hundred and eighty-eight, all of which are gold, jewelry, jade, calligraphy, paintings, and antiques, and even the house deed and land deed are also thick. In addition to those auspicious things that have been conventional, what is basically worth something. If someone robs the dowry team, he will become a rich man all at once.
The people listening around couldn't help but smack their tongues, even Lin Yu heard it twice, it seems that the Zhang family has indeed made a bloody investment, although it is less than ten miles of red makeup, one or two miles of red makeup is still there, and the dowry of one hundred and eighty-eight can overpower how many high-ranking nobles in Beijing. However, it is also a little sad that his parents probably didn't have the opportunity to watch him get married in person.
She was slightly distracted, but Xuemei beside her pulled the corner of her clothes, "Miss, look over there, that sister over there is so beautiful." ”
Very beautiful people? Lin Yu's first reaction was Yin Susu, wouldn't it? She also came, so what kind of feelings did she come to see? Lin Yu hurriedly looked to the other side and didn't see it.
"No one?"
"Look at it from this way." Xuemei pulled Lin Yu to the side of the window, and Lin Yu found that only in this side could he see the person who was not by the window on the other side. Strictly speaking, the location of that person cannot be said to be not by the window.
Lin Yu saw Yin Susu dressed in white and shengxue, with long satin black hair loosely tied with ribbons, leaning against the wall by the window, half-hanging the eyes with a starlight moving light, and looking at the long family sending off the window with no expression.
For some reason, Lin Yu suddenly felt pitiful for her, although she was beautiful and beautiful, peerless, smart and rich, but she had neither parents nor children, even if she had love, it was impossible to be together. is not even as good as himself, and when he was most in pain, he still had Qingqing by his side all the way. Living in such a beautiful manor is enviable, but it is also too lonely.
Lin Yu suddenly found that she had a kind of empathetic sadness, and after coming back to her senses, she sighed deeply, and suddenly felt unhappy. I don't seem to even have a supporting role in this relationship story. It is Lin Ruoyu who is infatuated, but Lin Ruoyu has already been in her soul; The innocent is Yin Susu, but such a beautiful woman with a noble demeanor probably disdains to do things to take her husband; The two are happy with Lu Houye and Zhang Wan'er, but after all, people can't bless them. It's better to end like this, I'm just an outsider, and it's better to try to live my own life.
Lin Yu left with Xuelan Xuemei and did not say hello to Yin Susu. For some reason, she felt that Yin Susu probably didn't want her fragile appearance to be seen by others, just like a hedgehog who didn't want to show her soft belly that was not protected by spikes.
