Chapter 366 Death is the destination
In the fourth year of Mingdao, summer, July.
The four major families in Kyushu, Gao and Cui are married. Today, the third young master of the Cui family married the eldest lady of Gaofu, which was very lively.
The team of the Gaofu to send off relatives has entered the city in Beijing.
Because Cui and Gao are far apart. The Gao family set out from the capital, sent off by the eldest young master, walked unhurriedly for nearly a month, and entered the city on the right day.
Gao Jasmine in the carriage was woken up by Liu's mother, and after a wash, Narcissus brought a bowl of hot millet porridge from outside.
"Miss, use it quickly, I'm going to toss it for a day today."
Gao Jasmine took a few sips, raised her eyes and said, "What about the eldest brother?" Did the people of the Cui family come to greet them? ”
"Miss, the eldest young master is also having breakfast, and the people of the Cui family have been waiting at the gate of the city for a long time, and they will already go back to report the news."
Gao Jasmine's heart tightened, and she hurriedly said, "Will my cousin come in person?" ”
Mother Liu smiled angrily: "Naturally, the young master came to greet him personally." ”
"Mother Liu, you have to change your words, you have to call your uncle." Narcissus whispers.
"Look at my memory." Liu's mother gently twitched her mouth, smiling so much that she couldn't see her teeth.
"Oh, then I'll have to hurry." When Gao Jasmine heard that her cousin was also coming, her heart itched and she was a little anxious.
"Don't worry, Miss, be steady, the bride can't be in a hurry, and if you want to be in a hurry, you have to make the man anxious." Liu's mother smiled.
Narcissus chimed in: "Mom's has a point. ”
"Miss didn't know, when the girl in my family went out, I asked my aunt to wait for half a cup of tea before inviting someone out. Now that girl really holds my aunt firmly. Let him go east, he will not dare to go west. ”
Two months ago, Orange got married, married to the only son of the rich man's family in the suburbs of Beijing, and less than ten days after entering the door, he held the housekeeper power in his hands, and now his life is extremely comfortable.
Gao Jasmine's heart moved, and she smiled: "Then I have to let my cousin wait for half a cup of tea." ”
"That's right." Liu's mother said happily.
The two waited for the eldest lady to eat, and brought water to rinse her mouth, everything was in order. The three of them put on their wedding dresses in the carriage.
Everything is in order. Mother Li looked at the eldest lady under the makeup and secretly wiped her tears.
When Madame was alive, I don't know how much effort she put into her marriage. Four young ladies in the house. Except for the third lady who married into the palace. Which uncle's door. is not as tall as the Cui family, which aunt, and he is not handsome as the young master.
Even if the third lady marries into the palace. So what, it's not ...... Mother Li sighed twice in her heart. The heart is auspicious for the zodiac, and it is good to mention what she is doing.
She is now helping the Queen Mother to deal with the Gao family. A few days ago, I called the three young ladies into the palace and taught them a lesson. The implication is that they should persuade some old masters and young masters not to go against the queen mother above the court.
Not only that, but she even interfered in the marriage of the three young masters in the house, fortunately, the old man was tough and pushed them all, otherwise, I don't know how to be hated.
"Miss is so good-looking in dress, my uncle will be dumbfounded when he lifts the red cover." Narcissus quipped.
Gao Jasmine lowered her head shyly.
As he spoke, there was a terrifying sound of firecrackers outside.
"Coming, coming, my uncle is here to greet you."
……
Cui Jinchen was dressed in a happy robe, riding a horse and walking in the front, with a slight smile on his face.
There seemed to be a familiar light falling on his face, and Cui Jinchen suddenly looked towards the crowd, which was full of lively people.
Cui Jinchen's eyebrows frowned slightly, his eyes swept around and saw no acquaintances, and he turned his head silently. He must have been dazzled.
"Little master, he's quite alert." Zhengyang wore a mask on his face, looked at the triumphant Xinlang official and said in a low voice.
Lin Xi nodded and said with a smile: "Zhengyang, you said, if his cave room is disturbed by me, will he hate me for the rest of his life." ”
Zhengyang was taken aback and said, "Is the little master planning to go to Cui's house tonight?" ”
"No, I'm going to do it tonight. Let's go, it's still a long time, let's go to the Lin Family Inn to sleep first, and then you can help me deliver a letter when you come back." ”
"How does the little master want me to go?"
"Just walk in openly, forget it; Let's climb the wall, climbing the wall makes it seem that we are robbing people. ”
"Do you want to be alarmed?"
"Alarm, it just so happens that we have run out of silver, ask him for some." Lynsey's eyes sparkled.
……
Joyful, the firecrackers were deafening, and the bride's sedan chair arrived at the door of Cui's mansion and got off the sedan chair steadily.
The bride held Liu's mother's hand and slowly got off the sedan chair, the bride stepped forward and stuffed the red silk cloth into the bride's hand, and the other end was stuffed into Cui Jinchen's hand, and a couple of newlyweds were surrounded into the main hall.
Dead.
The hustle and bustle in front was flourishing, Cui Jinchen was helped into the courtyard, and when he took two steps, a figure fell from the sky.
The crowd was taken aback.
The man walked up to Cui Jinchen, stuffed a letter into his hand, and then turned over and disappeared.
Cui Jinchen was so frightened that he woke up halfway, opened the letter and looked at it, his face changed greatly, pushed everyone away and rushed into the new house, and whispered a few words in Gao Jasmine's ear.
Gao Jasmine gritted her teeth, and said faintly for a long time: "You go." ”
Cui Jinchen looked at his wife, his eyes were a little straight, he was stunned for a long time, and suddenly kissed her pink face heavily.
Gao Jasmine's face was flushed with shame, and her pink fist slammed into the man's chest.
Cui Jinchen's eyes overflowed with brilliance, and two words whispered in her ear: "Wait for me!" ”
……
"Why did the young lady let my uncle go?" Mother Liu came in and complained in a low voice.
"Mom, Lynsey is here." Gao Jasmine's face turned red and said shyly.
"What, three little ...... Here she comes. ”
Mother Liu's eyes showed surprise, covered her mouth, and said in a low voice: "The slave almost said that she missed her mouth." ”
Lin Xi's life experience, the eldest young master and the eldest lady have already talked about it, and she and Narcissus both know it. The eldest young master confessed, everything is put in the stomach, and it cannot be stretched, and it is not yet time to stretch it.
Gao Jasmine smiled and said: "This is Cui's Mansion, there is no defense if you say it, the mountains are high and the road is far away, and it can't be transmitted to the capital." ”
Liu's mother was relieved. sighed: "Miss, the slave maid never thought of ......"
Gao Jasmine's eyes were hot, and she said: "When my cousin was in trouble, I said that from now on, I will only be her sister, and I never thought that I would ...... My cousin said he was going to see it first, and he wanted me to meet her when he got back. ”
"Ah, that dare is good, the slave will kowtow to her when she turns around."
"Help me remove the hairpin. I'm exhausted. I want to take a shower and change clothes, my cousin asked me to wait for him, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to hold it, so I would squint first. Jasmine Gao said with a smile.
……
The backyard of the Lin Family Inn.
The moon shadow is clear. Trees are forested.
In the courtyard. Linsey stood with his hands behind his back.
There was a faint sound of footsteps in my ears. The corners of her mouth went up, and she smiled back.
Cui Jinchen was wearing a wedding robe and came in a hurry. Before the person arrived, the sound had arrived.
"I said Linxi, when can't you come, you have to come when I have to come in my cave room to spend candles, do you know ......?"
"My brother-in-law is on top, and I am worshiped by my sister!"
Brother-in-law, what is this name?
Cui Jinchen was stunned for a moment, then grinned: "In this way, we are close again." ”
Lin Xi smiled: "It's not just one layer." The water and wine are ready, and the wine you owe me should be repaid. By the way, Gao Zizhan will come in a while. ”
Cui Jinchen laughed, "You actually dragged him over, great, come, come, come, while he hasn't arrived, let's have a few drinks first." ”
Lin Xisu raised his hand, poured two glasses lightly, and said: "The flower is full of moon, the husband and wife are concentric, Cui Jinchen, it's done." ”
"It's done."
The two looked at each other and smiled, and sat down at the same time, Cui Jinchen was about to ask for it again, but Lin Xi held it down.
"Before you get drunk, you have a deal I want to do with you, do you want to hear about it?"
Cui Jinchen thought for a moment and said with a smile: "Naturally, I want to hear it, as long as I don't lose money, I'm willing to do it." ”
Lin Xi's eyes rolled and said with a smile: "At present, it seems that it may be a loss, but in the long run, it will not be a loss, it depends on whether Jinchen has the courage to do so." ”
Cui Jinchen smiled on his face, and his expression seemed to be extremely relaxed and happy, "I know everything about you, and I also know what you want to do." I'm just waiting for you to come and beg me. ”
Lin Xi looked at him, still with a faint smile on his face, raised his eyebrows and said, "Cui Jinchen, I won't beg you, I'm here to ask you for a debt, and you just said that you won't pay it back." ”
"It's ruthless!"
Cui Jinchen stretched out his thumb and sighed: "If you owe, you naturally have to pay it back." Say, what do you want the Cui family to do? ”
Lynsey got up, sat down beside him, leaned her head over, and whispered.
Cui Jinchen's eyes slowly brightened, and after a while, he sighed in a low voice: "Lin Xi, I said that you are bold, but I never thought that you were so bold." “
"Princes and generals, rather have a kind of, how about it, dare to fight with me." Lin Xi excited.
Cui Jinchen got up suddenly, looked straight at her, and suddenly said loudly: "You wait for me, I'll come when I go." ”
"Go and go back quickly, if you are weak alone, you can pull my brother up, and he will come forward, and things will be much easier." Lin Xi smiled faintly.
Cui Jinchen smiled angrily: "Just do what you say." Keep the wine and food for me, if this thing is done today, I Cui Sanshao will get drunk with you. ”
"Little master, why did the young master of the Cui family say that he would leave as soon as he left, and this matter has not been negotiated yet?" Zhengyang emerged from behind the tree.
Lin Xi picked up the wine jug, poured himself a glass, took a sip, and said, "Zhengyang, he is not the head of the family yet, he can only match, everything only depends on the meaning of the old lady of the Cui family." ”
"Then the old lady of the Cui family will definitely ......"
"Zhengyang, it's not something I'm going to worry about. I'm here to ask Cui Jinchen for debts, why is it still his business. Lin Xi smiled and raised his eyes to look at the bright moon in the sky.
……
The Cui family's study is brightly lit.
Cui Jingran, the old lady of the Cui family, and Cui Rongxuan, the eldest master, listened to what Cui Jinchen said, and their eyes fell on Gao Zizhan, who was leisurely drinking tea.
Gao Zizhan put down the teacup, got up and said, "Grandfather, uncle, let's leave aside the branches and trivialities of this matter, only talk about the pros and cons of the Cui family." If my grandfather and uncle feel that it is beneficial to the Cui family, they can give it a go; If my grandfather and uncle felt that the risk was too great, they could find an excuse to shirk it. ”
"Zizhan, uncle wants to hear your opinion."
Gao Zizhan raised his eyebrows, and only lightly spit out four words: "Be prepared for danger in times of peace." ”
Cui Jinchen couldn't hold back in the end, and said: "Grandfather, father, now the situation in the Xin Kingdom is clear. Since Gao and Cui are married, they must be both prosperous and lossy. ”
The two elders of the Cui family glanced at each other, but still did not say anything.
Seeing this, Gao Zizhan flashed in his eyes, and said in a low voice: "When my father came, he said a word to me. ”
Cui Rongxuan raised his eyebrows and said, "What did he say?" ”
"My father said that he is old and can't move anymore, and it is our young people's business. My father also said that the day he retired was when it came to fruition. ”
Cui Jingran's eyes flashed, and he bowed slightly to his son, who smiled and said, "We are all old, you young people can just make up your mind about these things." San'er, come here. ”
Cui Jinchen quickly walked up to his father.
"The country is picturesque, the family is romantic, you keep in mind the ancestral teachings of the Cui family."
"Yes, Father!"
"Go ahead!"
……
The young man left, and only father and son were left in the study.
Cui Rongxuan stepped forward, helped the old father up, and said in a low voice: "Father, what do you think of her winning rate?" ”
Cui Jingran raised his beard and twisted his eyebrows, and said, "I never guess the winning rate." Life in the world has always been a gamble. She is gambling, the Gao family is gambling, the palace is gambling, and our Cui family is also gambling. ”
"My son is afraid that she is too young to hold her breath, what the hell is this Kyushu ......" Cui Rongxuan groaned and didn't say it all.
Cui Jingran glanced at him and sneered: "Do you know why she came today, not one step earlier, not one step later?" ”
"Come to congratulate San'er?"
Cui Jingran sighed lightly and said, "Your daughter-in-law is her sister-in-law, and your nephew is her brother, both of whom are related to you by blood." Son, according to the generation, she has to call you uncle. ”
Cui Rongxuan's heart was pounding, if he was to unify Kyushu in the future, wouldn't the Cui family be ......
"Father!"
"Son, this bet is good for the Cui family, you should be more stable in the back. Your third brother's day of emergence is approaching. ”
Cui Jingran's tone was deep.
……
The moon stars are scarce,.
In the backyard of the Lin Family Inn, the table was already in a mess.
The three of them were all staggering, and their eyes were hazy.
Cui Jinchen's eyes were red, and he picked up the wine glass and touched it with Lin Xi.
"Linsey, you tell me the truth, are you doing this now for him?"
Lin Xi's eyes sparkled slightly.
She drank all the wine in the cup, covered her tears, and said with a smile: "If he gives up the country for me, I will give him back." ”
"What if he gave up his life for your sake?" Gao Zizhan borrowed the strength of wine to ask what he had always wanted to ask.
"Then I'll give him his life."
"Why?"
Lin Xi only felt that his body was fluttering, and his heart was also fluttering, "Gao Zizhan, there is nothing to love in life, and death is the destination." ”
Gao Zizhan smiled bitterly, "Lin Xi, is he worthy of you?" ”
"Gao Zizhan, in my eyes, there has never been something that is not worth saying. I only know that he is born, I am born, and he dies, and I am with him. ”
"Good!"
Cui Jinchen shouted with a big tongue: "The ends of the earth, life and death go hand in hand, Lin Xi, I admire you." ”
Lin Xi simply lay on the table, spit out wine, and said: "Cui Jinchen, the person who lives and dies with you is already in your new house, you need to treat her well, not half-heartedly." A woman's heart, once it is cold, is difficult to change back. With that, he tilted his head and fell into a deep sleep.
At this time, Jiang Cui Jinchen had already made a slight noise.
Gao Zizhan looked at the two people on the table, and with the last bit of clarity, he took off his coat and gently covered Lin Xi's body.
The moment he fell asleep, he suddenly envied the man. (To be continued......)
