Chapter 189: Where the Heart Wants

Several girls said goodbye to Zhou Orion's house. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Brother-in-law Zhou is so good to Sister Yingchun." Xing'er looked back at the disappearing shadow, and said with envy.

"Yes," Yingying smiled sweetly, "You didn't see it, it was Brother-in-law Zhou who was busy on the stove just now, and Sister Yingchun didn't allow him to help if she wanted to." ”

"Sister Yingchun's life is really good," Ah Tao sighed lightly and couldn't help laughing, "She was carried away by Brother-in-law Zhou last year, and we were secretly worried." Who would have thought that Brother-in-law Zhou was so attentive to her, it really hurt her heart. Saying that he didn't know what he remembered, his little face suddenly turned red, and he shyly twisted the big black braid in his hand, half expectant and half worried, "I don't know ...... this year."

The other girls were also of the age of marriage, and they all blushed with shame and did not speak.

Su Jinchen heard them talk about the "allusion" of this wedding dress before, and he was very curious at a moment's notice, but when he heard them mention it, he couldn't help but wonder, "On the ninth day of the first year, can the young man who was selected by the girls grab it casually?" But what if the girl who was robbed didn't want to? Have to go with him too? ”

"How so?" The girls were interrupted by her, and they all came back to their senses from their previous emotions, and explained to her with a smile, "First of all, the young man must show full sincerity, and confess to the girl he likes, if the woman agrees, they will marry in the witness of the whole village, if they are still unwilling, then they can't be forced, if the man refuses to choose other girls, then this time it will be all a game, and no one is allowed to be annoyed." The big guys sang and danced around the campfire and played all night, and the lads had to wait until this day next year to grab it. ”

"I see." Su Jinchen smiled and nodded, "Then if you make a private decision for life, won't the elders in the family have any opinions?" ”

"Of course not." Yuan Yuan waved his hand disappreciatively, "Everyone is in the same village, and they know each other, as long as their children are happy, their parents will not interfere." Besides, when the wedding and the new house are ready-made, not only do you not have to Zhang Luo yourself, but the village chief personally presides over the marriage, which is trouble-free and face-saving, and the family is too late to be happy, how can you not want it! ”

"That's it," the youngest apricot on the side laughed, "My mother said yesterday that it would be nice to marry me off this time!" ”

"How old are you, you want to get married so soon!" A-Xing smiled and pinched her face.

"It's like you didn't think about it!"

"Okay, you, you're actually squeezing me!"

A few girls laughed and laughed.

Su Jinchen couldn't help but feel interesting when he listened to it:

Even though the atmosphere of the Celestial Empire was already very civilized compared to the previous dynasty, especially in the capital at the foot of the Son of Heaven, it has long been a common practice for unmarried men and women to know each other more before they are engaged, even if they are the sons and daughters of big families, there are not a few who are familiar with each other and even play together before the wedding, but it is all based on the premise that the elders in the family acquiesce to their relationship. Like Tianjing Village, without the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers, unmarried men and women can get married as long as they are happy with each other...... Even if you only have one chance a year, you have never seen it and never heard of it.

"Ah Xun, has Mr. Chen married in his hometown?" Yuan Yuan suddenly asked curiously.

Several of the girls also stopped fighting, and they all pricked up their ears.

Su Jinchen was stunned for a moment and said with a smile, "Not yet." ”

"Then on the ninth day of the new year, will you and Mr. Chen also come to play together?" Tao said expectantly. Although he knew that it was impossible for a person like him to stay in the village for a long time, he ...... Even if you send a flower, it's good to show your heart.

Su Jinchen smiled, "I don't dare to say my young master, but I will definitely go - after all, I also want to see which of you can wear such a beautiful wedding dress!" ”

…………………………

As the sun sets, the quiet mountain village is also covered with a layer of faint gold, warm, quiet and peaceful.

The girls made an appointment to go to Zhou's house tomorrow to embroider wedding dresses and went home.

The men and women working in the fields came back from the fields one after another, passing by Su Jinchen's side in twos and threes, and whether they knew her or not, they all smiled at her kindly, as if she was just a familiar member of the village.

It is probably only in this kind of place where the folk customs are simple that there will be such peculiar and interesting customs! Looking at the sincere and natural smiles on everyone's faces, Su Jinchen couldn't help but think.

The glow of the sky was as red as blood, and she raised her hand to rub her sour eyes.

Even she herself never thought that she would embroider a wedding dress by hand in her lifetime - even in this case.

Although it was just a piece of ordinary and somewhat cheap red cloth, although the uneven embroidery of the girls was neither delicate nor novel...... But the delicate and bright red still made her envious.

Yes, in this world, who doesn't want to put on that bright red wedding dress and grow old with their beloved?

But that...... But it's a color she can never overcome.

Su Jinchen pulled the corners of his mouth self-deprecatingly.

In fact, there was a moment when she had hoped for it.

I still remember the words he promised that day in the carriage, when the lives of the two were hanging by a thread.

He said, "If you can survive this disaster, I will definitely give you an explanation." ”

I'll give you an explanation......

At that time, the two of them were in danger, and there was almost no hope of survival, and they didn't think much about it.

But in the countless nights she was rescued, she didn't know how many times she recalled it in her heart over and over again.

Is it sweet? Yes.

Worried? Yes.

Do you have a vision? There are also.

…… But in all fairness, the most is helplessness about reality.

There were many times when she could hardly hold back and want to ask him, what was the explanation he was talking about? Is it a wife? Is it a concubine? Is it a room? Is it a girl? But when the words came to her mouth, she swallowed them back alive.

Of course she knew that if he made a promise, he would take it to the end, but she also knew it...... There could not have been a more perfect outcome between them.

Even before they left the capital, she heard the girl in the house say that the second young master had relented, and when he came back from this errand, it would be time for the second room to be happy......

The person she likes, the one she wants to marry, will only be someone else after all.

Maybe it's because I've been looking at the slanting sun for a long time, and my sour eyes are a little red.

Su Jinchen lowered his head and blinked vigorously.

She didn't know what was wrong with her, she had already made a decision, why was she greedy?

"Ah Xun—"

Su Jinchen was stunned, looked at the figure striding towards him, and a shallow smile returned to his face, "Brother Zeng, you're back." ”
