164. The heart is empty
Cheng Linghui couldn't help but change color, Lin Jiao was debauched, and Cheng Linghui had heard about it when she was in Yangzhou. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Chang Jiwen Pianpian son, gentle as jade, she didn't guess what would happen in the hands of that demon girl, she just deliberately let herself ignore it. According to the concept of the people of the time, Chang Jiwen is a big man who has no chastity at all.
And when Sun Xinglong mentioned Hua Ruyan, his tone was so familiar.
Sun Xinglong definitely deliberately blocked Cheng Linghui, he said that he was dead, but he was helpless. He wants Chang Jiwen to leave a stain on Cheng Linghui's heart for the rest of his life. He knew that Cheng Linghui was a strong and domineering person in his bones. Her mellowness and forbearance were just forced by life and had to bow her head. Ordinary people mess with her, or try to touch her things? Custody makes you unpleasant.
Chang Jiwen is her person. Lin Jiao moved Chang Jiwen, and undoubtedly pricked her in the heart. However, the thorn had already pierced in, and Lin Jiao was dead. Cheng Linghui could not spit out the evil qi in his chest no matter what. She can't let go for a day, and she won't forget the past in Jiangnan for a day. Then she will never forget that there was once a guy named Sun Xinglong who hated because of love.
said that it was a dead heart, but in fact it was helpless.
He told Cheng Linghui how Lin Jiao made Chang Jiwen succumb. The tone was full of pride, the kind of pride that finally raised his eyebrows and got revenge.
"Don't say it." Cheng Linghui interrupted him. Both men and women can't stand their other half being persecuted and insulted.
"Okay." Sun Xinglong nodded: "If you don't say it, you won't say it." Actually, he had already finished saying everything he wanted to say, and he had to pretend to be empathetic: "Actually, I am telling you this just to let you know that Chang Jiwen is actually not a messy man." He was forced to be helpless. You know, men, there are always a lot of occasions to make a difference when you're out and about. ”
Cheng Linghui couldn't listen to it, so she turned around and left.
Sun Xinglong followed her: "Don't be angry if you say it." The tone and demeanor were very similar to the way the two of them talked when they were children. However, the two knew that many things could never go back to the way they were.
"Send the flower girl away." Sun Xinglong followed behind Cheng Linghui: "Hua Niang is a good girl, I can't bear to ruin her." It's not bad for her to follow He Kun......"
Cheng Linghui nodded.
Sun Xinglongsong watched her figure disappear among the villagers who came and went. He knew that there would never be a chance in his life to be so close to her as he was today.
Sister-in-law Sun's funeral is scheduled for eight days later, counting the day of her death is exactly nine days, commonly known as 'Pai Jiu'. This mourning time is considered medium in Shaxi County. Not too long, not too short.
On the day of entering the earth, Cheng Linghui, as the fourth sister's maiden descendant, also wanted to go. Sun Xinglong was not short of money, and the funeral was very pompous. Shaxi County funeral. There are several specifications of filial piety. The children and daughters-in-law of the deceased are all filial piety. The son-in-law only has filial piety cloth and does not wear filial piety clothes.
The eldest sister-in-law, sister-in-law, niece, and granddaughter of the deceased's mother-in-law's family are all filial piety. The farther female dependents are a pair of white pants, and so on are the upper and white head belt, also known as head and foot filial piety.
As for the son-in-law, he is all done with a filial hat.
Heavy filial piety and flower filial piety are collectively referred to as great filial piety.
In the past, women had small feet and it was inconvenient to walk. Great filial piety must have a frame of filial piety. Generally, they are nephews who are one or two generations younger than those who wear filial piety. One on one side. The spirit is up, and the great filial piety has to ride livestock.
If the girl goes to her mother's house to mourn, the one who is filial piety, and the one who leads the livestock will find someone from the mother-in-law's house. If you are a daughter-in-law, you have to find someone from your mother's side.
Like the fourth sister, the daughter-in-law, except for the filial piety and the horse, the rest of the descendants of the mother's family do not need to follow to the grave. However, Cheng Linghui knew that this was probably Sun Xinglong's last day at home, after all, how many years of friendship should always be sent to him.
Therefore, it was replaced by her who led the horse for the fourth sister.
When the fourth sister saw her, she was angry. The sadness in my heart because of the death of my mother-in-law has also become very bitter. Cheng Linghui thought that she would become a person to support the door alone from now on, and she felt very uncomfortable. Holding back tears, he patted her leg and whispered, "Don't cry, take a good look at your man." ”
The fourth sister is not an elm pimple, although she is angry with Sun Xinglong and Cheng Linghui, the two have been together day and night for so many years, and they still know each other very well. Although Sun Xinglong came back this time, although he did a good job on the surface, he couldn't hide it from her wife.
She knew that Sun Xinglong must have something, but he didn't say it, so she didn't ask.
Now in the mighty funeral procession, she has the heart to ask Cheng Linghui what Sun Xinglong is hiding from herself. First, there are many people around, and second, she and Cheng Linghui have been awkward for several years, and they can't ask.
Sun Xinglong's father died a few years ago, and now it is time to send Sun's sister-in-law to be buried with him. In the sound of suona, the two coffins were placed side by side in the tomb. Cheng Linghui couldn't help but think of her aunt.
After my brother-in-law disappeared, my aunt died not long after. There were also two coffins side by side in her grave, but one of them contained several of her uncle's clothes. Born and slept together, died in the same cave. Something that has been common for thousands of years. My aunt and uncle loved each other for half their lives, but when they arrived, they could only sleep alone underground.
The future of the fourth sister......
Cheng Linghui forced herself not to think about it, and set her eyes on Sun Xinglong in front of her.
Sun Xinglong, who was turning the tomb, felt something, turned his head to look at her, and continued his steps.
After turning the tomb, kowtow to your parents again. Fill the grave with earth. The funeral is almost over. Sun Xinglong stood in front of his father's grave, watching the shovel fly up, the loess falling, burying the tomb little by little, and subconsciously glanced back at Cheng Linghui. Suddenly, he tore his hands hard, and he tore off the filial piety clothes on his body at once. The black arrow sleeves inside were exposed, and there was a whistle with a finger.
A healthy horse neighed and jumped out of the sky from the overlapping ancestral graves of the Sun family. Sun Xinglong tiptoed, and a harrier rolled over and jumped on horseback. shouted, "Sanhui, I'm leaving." "Hit the horse and go.
Seeing this, the officers and soldiers who were lying in ambush around jumped out of their hiding places one after another. For a time, arrows rained down like locusts.
"No......" The fourth sister shouted, and ran to those officers and soldiers despite the rain of arrows: "You can't kill him, he is my man." ”
"Fourth sister." Cheng Linghui was shocked, the feather arrow off the string didn't have long eyes. She subconsciously touched her waist, only to realize that the rope whip had been taken away by Sun Xinglong. Fortunately, the fourth sister was mixed with the turf under her feet and fell to the ground. There is no danger.
Cheng Linghui waved her hand to hit the horse, and as the horse ran, she fell on her feet, grabbed the horse's belly belt with one hand and got under the horse's belly. Ran to the fourth sister under the cover of the horse, lifted her up, and took her away from the encirclement of the officers and soldiers.
When the two sisters reached a safe place and looked back, Sun Xinglong had already disappeared from his horse, and he couldn't even see his back.
Those officers and soldiers shouted: "Chase." I didn't know where to pull out a lot of horses, and they got on the horses one after another, chasing Sun Xinglong.
It just happened in the light of light. It took a while for the people at the Sun family's funeral to come back to their senses. The countrymen had never seen this formation, and they fled in all directions. After a while, only a few people from the Sun family and Sun Xinglong's brother and sister-in-law, sister-in-law, and nephew were left in the cemetery.
The fourth sister clung to Cheng Linghui tightly, and her nails were about to pierce her clothes and pinch into the flesh: "Third sister, what's going on?" Tell me what's going on? ”
The three children of the fourth sister of the "mother...... were frightened and ran over to hug her and cry.
Cheng Linghui took the four of them into her arms and subconsciously stroked the back of the fourth sister: "It's okay, the fourth sister is good." There's a third sister here, it's okay. ”
"Something, it's all like this, how can it be okay?" The fourth sister stubbornly looked at her with teary eyes: "Third sister, just tell me." ”
"Do you remember what happened to your uncle?" Cheng Linghui looked at the fourth sister, very afraid that she would not be able to stand it. But she knows that what she should face is still to be faced.
Sure enough, the fourth sister's face turned pale when she heard this, and her whole body was paralyzed in Cheng Linghui's arms. Holding back tears for a long time, he asked, "Third sister, when did this happen?" ”
"It's been a long time."
"Wow......" The fourth sister suddenly opened her mouth and cried. The three children also cried miserably.
The second sister and the fifth sister rushed to hear the news, and when they saw this scene, they also cried, and the sisters hugged each other and cried until the sun went down. A few women of their own family couldn't persuade them, Hai Ye and Cheng Bao had no choice, so they pulled Cheng Linghui aside and said something. Cheng Linghui wiped away her tears and turned around to persuade the second sister and the fifth sister. The sisters carried the fourth sister, who was crying and was paralyzed, into the car and led the three children back to Sunjiazhuang.
Hai Ye and Cheng Bao took the others back first. Cheng Linghui and the second sister stayed in Sunjiazhuang to take care of the fourth sister.
The fourth sister cried all night, wiped her tears the next day, and suddenly stopped crying: "My man is not dead, what am I crying for." Another stack of voices urged Cheng Linghui to leave: "They all have a family and a mouth, go back quickly, I'm fine." ”
How can the sisters rest assured when they saw her pale face? Helplessly, the fourth sister was very resolute and had to drive a few people away.
The second brother-in-law set up the car, and the sisters sat in the car. The fourth sister kept sending them outside the village, and waved her hand to Cheng Linghui and said, "Third sister, go back and tell our mother and our grandmother that everything is fine, let them not worry about it." ”
Cheng Linghui responded, as if she saw the honest and intelligent little sister coming back.
Leaving Sunjiazhuang, the second sister scolded Sun Xinglong all the way and cried all the way. When I got home, I saw my grandmother and mother before I went home with my fifth sister.
As soon as Cheng Linghui sent them away, she saw Hua Ruyan and He Kun kneeling in the courtyard with the two children in their arms. Cheng Linghui knows that he can't stay after all. He stepped forward and helped them up: "Where are you going?" ”
He Kun sighed, he couldn't speak. In his heart, Cheng Linghui is his relative, and he is very reluctant to leave. But the flowers are like smoke and they want to leave, and he can't help it.
Hua Ruyan said: "I plan to follow Kunzi back to his hometown." ”
Cheng Linghui nodded: "It's okay." He looked at the small package on He Kun's shoulder again: "The poor family is rich, how can you bring such a little salute." You don't feel sorry for adults, you have to feel sorry for children. ”
Hua Ruyan lowered her head and didn't speak.
Cheng Linghui instructed someone to prepare salutes and food for them, and asked He Kun to go to the car.
"Third sister......" When Hua Ruyan raised her head again, her eyes were already full of tears: "I did something sorry for you, will you still recognize me as a sister in the future?" ”
Cheng Linghui patted her on the shoulder: "What stupid things to say." In the future, I will live a good life with He Kun, and I will give the third sister a letter if I lack anything. ”
"Hmm." Hua Ruyan nodded, hugged the child and got into the carriage. wiped a handful of tears from her cheeks: "Third sister, then the two of us will leave." ”
Cheng Linghui waved his hand and instructed He Kun: "Slow down on the road, and give me a letter when you arrive." ”
He Kun agreed humbly. The carriage moved slowly. A villager saw it: "He Kun, what are you two doing here?" ”
Without waiting for He Kun to answer, Hua Ruyan said: "Go home." ”
The villager said: "Isn't this home? ”
Hua Ruyan said: "This is my mother's house, how can a girl live in my mother's house all the time?" ”
The villagers suddenly realized and said with a smile: "It turns out that Hua Niang wants to go back to her mother-in-law's house." ”
Cheng Linghui watched them cross the Wengong Bridge, and gradually walked away before turning back. Standing in the courtyard, I suddenly felt a little overwhelmed, and my heart was very empty, just like that year when the sisters got married, Xiuwen and Shi Niang also left with Cheng Su. Only she, her grandmother, and her mother were left at home.
still remembers that during that time, the three of them were huddled on a kang and couldn't sleep all night.
This night, Cheng Linghui lay between her mother and grandmother and lost sleep again.
