After a short time, the bridegroom took the bride back and immediately married in the church. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
After the ceremony, the banquet was held, and the noise of the guests was endless.
Xiao Ping has a wine jug in one hand and a glass in the other, swaying and toasting from table to table, handsome and hearty, and can greet and joke with every guest, taking care of everyone. Everyone thought that the bridegroom was in high spirits, and he didn't care about marrying a bride who was eight years older than him.
Although tonight was Xiao Ping's wedding, he invited many people to dance and sing in the house. The singing and dancing and the beauty were like clouds, which had already overshadowed the original intention of the newlyweds, and the guests' interest soared, and the dinner lasted almost until late at night.
It wasn't until the bride in the new house repeatedly sent people to inquire that Xiao Zhizhong shook his face at Xiao Ping, and the guests gradually dispersed.
In the wedding room, everything is quiet.
Fang Cai's world is lively, so quiet that you can hear a needle dropping at this moment.
On the edge of the bed, the bride with a rather plump figure sat quietly, with a dazzling phoenix crown and a charming red makeup, and the bride was expressionless under the heavy makeup, patiently waiting for her husband's arrival.
Finally, there was movement outside the door.
"Lang Jun, please-"
Bang Bang -
The door was pushed open, and the groom strode into the wedding room, his handsome face was heavily drunk, his steps were messy and unsteady, and he stared at the bride from the beginning of entering the door. After a few steps, one stumbled, and his center of gravity was unstable and pounced on the bride.
The bride on the edge of the bed was agile, and suddenly got up to dodge, and Xiao Pingsheng fell on the bed.
The bride glanced helplessly at the slender figure lying on the bed, her husband closed his eyes, as if he had fallen asleep, so Zong stepped forward and gently lifted the quilt to cover him. Unexpectedly, when she was about to cover the quilt for him, a hand firmly stopped her wrist, and the hand holding the quilt suddenly couldn't move.
The man lying on the bed opened his eyes and said in a cold and detached tone, "What do you want to do?" ”
"What did the husband say?" The corners of the Zong's woman's mouth raised, staring at the man with deep eyes in front of her.
Xiao Ping shook off her hand, and when she was about to speak, the daughter of the Zong family took the first step and said: "Today, you marry me, from now on my Zongxian's name will be named Xiao, my Zongxian's life is pinned on you, I want you to swear, in this life, you and I are husband and wife, with each other, with one heart and one mind, you only love my Zongxian alone, for a lifetime." ”
This woman's actions surprised Xiao Ping and stunned, he turned to a sneer, his tone was still alienated and indifferent, "You are too self-righteous." ”
"What? Can't do it? Zong Xian stared at him, meaningful, "If you can't do it, you can withdraw from the marriage, before the candles in the cave room." I, Zong Xian, am not a woman who can stick upside down. ”
"You—" Xiao Ping stared at her with wide eyes.
"Don't forget, the lie was told by the Xiao family, and it was also a marriage contract unilaterally announced by the Xiao family. My clan has given your Xiao family a lot of face, Xiao Ping, don't be a white-eyed wolf. Zong Xian also stared at him with a pair of sharp eyes, and every word that came out of her mouth was very attentive.
Xiao Ping stared at her in a daze, for a moment, and slowly let go of her wrist.
He got up, didn't look at her, and said lightly: "I, Xiao Ping, promise you, you are my only wife in this life." ”
"Not only that, I want you to promise me that you will never take a concubine."
Xiao Ping immediately turned around and stared at her when he heard this, and reacted very much, this woman ...... Who exactly is it? Twenty-eight years old did not leave the cabinet, and on the night of the wedding, he threatened not to allow him to take a concubine?
He lowered his eyes, was silent for a moment, and slowly spoke, "The Xiao family involved you for no reason, I'm really sorry." A-Niang's health is not good, from now on, the Xiao Mansion will be taken care of by you, no matter what you say, I will promise you everything, but I only need you to promise me one condition, my only condition. ”
"On what terms?"
"I only take one concubine in my life, just one."
"No way!"
"If she gives birth to a child, it will be in your room."
Zong Xian stared at him tightly, as if she wanted to see through him, "Who is that person?" ”
Xiao Ping turned his head, stopped speaking, and walked out of the room, leaving her with a cold back.
The door snapped open, and his figure disappeared from her sight. The two maids outside the door were so frightened that they didn't dare to come out, trembling slightly.
Zong Xian, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, looked surprisingly calm, it turned out that he had a heart......
Oh, it doesn't matter. As long as she bears the status of his wife, everything is in her hands.
It was night, the side courtyard was brightly lit, and so was the study.
It wasn't until the second half of the night that Xiao Ping, who had been sitting in the study for a long time, turned off the lights and lay down on the couch to rest and sleep.
…………
Following.
Zong Xian and Xiao Ping offered tea to Xiao's father and Xiao's mother, and the scene was harmonious.
Mother Xiao looked at the bride in front of her, this person had clear facial features and a powerful voice, but she was deliberately pressed by her, a little coquettish, it seemed that she was ...... He's a smart guy. It's just that this kind of cleverness, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse for Xiao Ping.
After receiving the red envelopes from Xiao Zhizhong and Xiao's mother, Zong Xian smiled and shifted her gaze to the side.
"You're Huan'er, aren't you?" Zong Xian looked at Chen Huan'er, who was expressionless, and smiled: "Xiao Ping mentioned you to me, you are her most precious sister. ”
Chen Huan'er got up and said, "I've seen my cousin." ”
Zong Xian stepped forward to help her up personally, and said with a pleasant face: "The age is not much different from my sister, I heard that you and your husband have grown up together since childhood, and the friendship is like a biological brother and sister." ”
Xiao Ping pulled Chen Huan'er's hand, and his seemingly casual demeanor implied maintenance, and his expression was very concerned, "Huan'er is not in good health, go back to the room to rest." ”
Zong Xian is a smart person, gently pulled the corners of her mouth, blessed the second elder, ignored no one, and turned to leave.
Xiao Ping and Chen Huan'er, who were at a stalemate on the side, glanced at each other, and they were a little confused by this person's behavior.
"Ping'er." Xiao's mother, who had a flat face on the seat, called softly, then got up and walked towards her courtyard. Xiao Ping gently patted Chen Huan'er's shoulder, far ahead of Xiao's mother's steps.
Since Xiao An's incident, Xiao's mother moved to another courtyard to live alone, and no longer said a word to Xiao Zhizhong. Xiao Zhizhong knew that he couldn't live with his wife and daughter, so he forcibly asked the servant to move his wife's things back to the main courtyard and live in another courtyard.
Inside the house.
Xiao's mother sat on the couch and stared at her son with a serious expression.
Xiao Ping looked at his mother, a little unclear, I don't know what A-Niang wants to say, so I have to avoid everyone.
"Ping'er, can you confess to Zong Xian about you and Huan'er?"
"Not yet, but no one can change the matter between me and Huan'er." Xiao Ping unconsciously shook his palm, quite resolute.
Xiao's mother sighed lightly, "I hope Zong Xian can tolerate her." "She is only afraid that the Xiao family will not be at peace now, and Chen Huan'er and Zong Xian will have trouble.
"She can't tolerate it, as long as she can accept Huan'er, I can let her do anything."
Xiao's mother looked at her son in a serious and persistent tone, stretched out her hand and pulled him to the couch next to her, her expression softened, "A-Niang is not the main room, I don't care if you favor your wife or concubine." However, whether you like Zong Xian or not, she was forced to marry into the Xiao family after all, and since she stepped into the door of the Xiao family, she is the Xiao family. Whatever you do in the future, you have to take her into account and consider her feelings. ”
"The child understands." Xiao Ping nodded.
"You have to really take it to heart." Xiao's mother still can't erase this worry in her heart, worried about her son who is immersed in love, and even more worried about Zong Xian, who seems to have great ambitions.
She was afraid, that woman disdained to fight in the house, but ...... Looking at the court, it will definitely make a mess of the Xiao family at that time.
