Chapter 1: Tearful Marriage

Under the hazy sky, deep in the majestic mountains, the trees are luxuriant, the flowers are clustered, and the grass is in the sky, and a group of people carry a small red sedan chair in the tree-lined path below, and they are moving forward non-stop. The seemingly quiet and impermeable forest has a faintly indescribable strange atmosphere, and the tip of the sedan chair man's forehead and nose are covered with fine beads of sweat, only to hear that there are occasional bandits and bandits in this old insect mountain, but not long ago the imperial court has sent people to garrison this eventful place, presumably the bandits dare not show up to loot in the blue sky and daylight. It's just that the hare that suddenly sprang out of the grass next to the road and the random bird calls in the forest make people feel a little like the grass and trees are all soldiers, and the bow and snake shadow are all in the woods.

Although the four palanquin men were hairy in their hearts, they all tried their best to suppress the horror in their hearts, and only turned into more vigorous and powerful steps and walked hard.

The groom riding a horse in the front, with a red hat and a red coat, obliquely hung a happy flower tied with red silk on his chest, this fiery festive color complemented his oily face, and the fat and strong horse shook his head from time to time and panted for breath, as if to protest against the rough command of the same brain-filled fat head and big ears on his back.

The groom squinted his eyes in the shape of a sunshade and looked at the bend not far ahead, this time the greeting relatives because of the long distance they had been running all the way to the woman's house since yesterday, and finally received the bride today and all the way to the dust and dust Now it is finally fast to Guanhua Town, as long as you cross this old insect mountain, you can look at the house you are located in the town, at this time the fat man can't help but appear proud on his face, finally almost home. Thinking that he racked his brains and wasted all the twists and turns to finally marry the beautiful lady of his dreams, the fatigue of this road was also forgotten, and he suddenly became refreshed, even if she was reluctant to pass tonight, the raw rice was about to be cooked, and when he thought of the scene where the little beauty was going to be ravaged by him at the night of the cave house and the candle night, the fat man couldn't help but laugh more obscenely and disgusting, and the corners of his mouth almost cracked with laughter, and a string of unbearable lewd laughs.

And at this time, in the sedan chair, under the silk red hijab, a pretty face that was white and jade, but full of tears, couldn't help frowning after hearing the self-satisfied obscene laughter, and the soft face was suddenly full of disgust, and the white pointed fingers like snow lotus hanging on the knee grabbed the skirt hatefully, and the corners of the mouth suffocated in disgust, the face trembled slightly, and the eyes were dull, obviously crying but could not shed a single tear, and during this period of time, the tears had already rolled with blood and hope to meet despair.

The delicate and charming eyes like an apricot kernel are covered with red bloodshots, the eye sockets are slightly red and swollen, the bloodless face is tired and desolate, the tip of the crying nose is thin red bloodshots, and the red and swollen cherry lips are set off by the white skin like the most fiery red roses blooming in the snow.

When other women got married, they were all carefully dressed and stepped into the sedan chair door with infinite longing and joy, and sweetly imagined in the bumpy sedan chair that they were on the same level as their future husbands. Yan'er was sleepless all night and dried her tears, and was pressed by the fat man in the early morning to force her makeup, and when the sedan chair came, the joy of blowing and beating pierced her ears and hurt.

His feet refused to move half a step into the sedan chair as if they were filled with lead, and his pink fist clenched his nails deep into the flesh, dripping blood, and his face was as stiff as ashes at the door.

The mother hunched her back and took her hand, her face was both sad and joyful, mixed with a little guilt, and she said for a while

"Yan'er, Daddy can't stand you, we really can't help it"

As he spoke, he burst into tears, probably thinking that it was unlucky to shed tears on a festive day, so he immediately raised his arm to wipe away the tears, and the sleeves of his old linen clothes were wet.

Yan'er saw it in her eyes, and it hurt in her heart, she would never complain about her parents, she knew that her parents didn't want to, she knew. She only blames herself for being incompetent, not having the ability to make money, not having the ability to get through the government, she only hates that God has no eyes to let her family suffer this catastrophe.

"Mother, don't worry about me... Will marry"

Yan'er Niang stared at the girl who said indifferently that she would marry, the girl who hid in the bed all night and sobbed, her eyes were red, there were still traces of crying in the corners of her eyes, her bloodless face was as pale as paper, and her eyes were even more empty and dull.

The woman's heart suddenly ached, and she covered her face and held on to the door frame, in Yan'er's heart, maybe she was really hateful! For the eighty taels of silver, he married his daughter to the greasy straw bale with only copper smell and no ink, and he was also a morally corrupt ruffian, as long as he saw a woman with a little appearance, his eyes would shine, and the light one would be teasing, and the heavy one would be up and down, how could such a person be his son-in-law, but the eighty taels had already been used, and he had promised the fat man that as long as he ransomed the father of Yan'er, he would marry his daughter to him as his wife. Now that Daddy Yan'er is back, there is no place to turn around.

It's good that Yan'er's father comes back safely, he still has to support his family and support Yan'er's younger brother to grow up. How could something happen to him, even if he sacrificed his daughter's happiness, but fortunately, the fat man was a well-known wealthy family in the next town, and he didn't have to worry about food and clothing in the future, so he just hoped that she could figure it out as soon as possible and live a good life with that person.

The middle-aged woman's mind was still wandering.

The guy shouted loudly

"The auspicious time is to invite the bride to the sedan chair"

So the stunned goose was forcibly pushed into the sedan chair amid a sound of dings and urging.

Yan'er Niang came to her senses, covered her heart in pain, and looked in the direction of her daughter stupidly. I saw Yan'er staggering and falling in the sedan chair, her knees slammed on the edge of the stool, Yan'er Niang saw this and was about to step forward, her arm was grabbed by someone, and when she looked back, it turned out to be Yan'er's father,

"I can't stand her left and right, the more you care about her, the more you can't give up, and we can't eat or dress well, what's so good"

Here, Xi Pozi hurriedly put Yan'er on the stool and sat upright, and then took out the red silk cloth embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water and covered Yan'er's head, said a few auspicious words, and put the sedan curtain down, then breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that as long as he followed to Xi's house, he could receive silver. But don't go wrong.

Xi Pozi smiled and stepped over the sedan pole, turned around, stood still on the side of the sedan chair, and said loudly

"Get up in the car",

Yan'er's father had to lean on the door frame and hold his shirt to secretly wipe his tears, and after wiping his tears, he was dragged to drink and count the dowry. Yan'er Niang also only used a blank gaze to see the sedan chair pole back to the sedan chair and moved forward faintly, and the fat man also stepped on the small bench and swept on the horse in a noise.

Suddenly, a pair of slender jade hands stretched out the side window of the sedan chair and slowly lifted the curtain of the side window of the sedan chair, lifted the hijab, trembling and trembling eyes swept through the curtain to the broken house where he had lived for seventeen years, and then slowly fell to the direction where the mother was standing, and a trace of imperceptible sadness and reluctance flashed in her eyes.

The sedan chair kept moving along the path until it turned a corner and disappeared.

I don't know how long it took, Yan'er Niang was still standing at the door, reciting words in her mouth and imitating her daughter's mouth shape over and over again, what did her daughter say just now, it seemed to be very sad and resolute.

Yan'er's thoughts wandered and wandered, and the sedan chair approached the fat man's nest step by step, thinking of the disgusting and filthy appearance of his saliva when the fat pig-colored Mimi stared at her, Yan'er couldn't help but shiver, and her stomach was as uncomfortable as a river and a sea, but it really made people sick.

There have been several times when he has escaped his salty pig hands, but if he marries into his family, he will be like the meat slaughtered on the board, especially tonight's candle night in the cave room, presumably he will really call the sky and the earth to be unspiritual.

Thinking of this, Yan'er couldn't help but tremble with fright, she didn't think about escaping, but what should her father and mother do if she left, the fat pig would not let them go. All she can hope for is to stay in the church and quietly swallow the strange poison she stole so that she can get out of the sea of suffering in a righteous and bright way, without being seen by others, and only as if she was sick and died. Only in this way may this fat pig not trouble his father.

Thinking of this, Yan'er slowly closed her eyes, and her heart was full of indifference in seeing death as if she were at home. Okay, don't you want me to marry, then I'll worship with you, as long as the ceremony is completed, it will complete the bargaining chip to save my father, what I said was to redeem my father after marrying and write off all debts, but I didn't say that I must live a good life and have children when I marry. Hmph, even if she died, she would never let this dead fat pig touch her even once, and she didn't believe that this shameless perverted pig would be interested in a corpse full of ulcers and poisonous sores at that time.

Thinking about it, there was a burst of sadness in my heart, and I would never see the brother Aoki I once missed in this life. It's a pity that people don't like themselves at all, and I'm afraid that they have forgotten all about themselves for most of the half year.

I think that if it weren't for the entanglement of this fat pig, maybe I could meet a gentle and dusty lover like Brother Aoki in the middle of the year. In order to force himself to marry him in desperation, this fat pig actually designed to frame her father, and the bitterness was that she couldn't get any evidence at all, she happened to hear the truth of this person's anger when she was a female celebrity in Zhang Yuan's house, and wanted to take that person to sue the government, but the man said that he was drunk and said nonsense.

Later, I told my mother that my relatives said, and no one dared to come forward, so I only persuaded Yan'er to rescue your father quickly, otherwise your mother would only be a widow in a few days, and said that the county master was the uncle of the fat man, you can't fight others, if you want to blame, blame you for being too gorgeous, and you should be asked to marry you and you are not in a hurry, now it's okay!

So Yan'er ran around like this for several days, begging relatives to tell their ancestors to no avail, and finally the news that her father was critically ill came out of the yamen, and her mother, who would only shed tears of bitterness if she didn't speak, began to persuade Yan'er to give up resistance and accept her fate.

At this point, Yan'er compromised. Let's just get my dad out and cure the disease first.

So at noon on the second day of the loosening of his mouth, the fat man handed over the silver to the gambling house, and then came back with the sick Yan'er father whistling all the way and shaking his head proudly.

Yan'er will always remember that the fat pig and rat at that time were full of complacent after the conspiracy succeeded. Yan'er will always remember what she heard in Zhang Yuanwai's house through the wall:

"How can the old man Lin be Chen Gongzi's opponent, take him to the biggest gambling house and he went, lend him money to him and he really dare to gamble, tell him to gamble big and say that this way can return quickly, he also believed, originally Chen Gongzi and I thought that as long as the old man Lin lost, then his daughter was used to pay off the debt, but the dead old man didn't know what shit luck he took that day, and he won five in a row, and finally Chen Gongzi secretly called the owner of the gambling house to the backyard and stuffed him with a hundred taels of silver and said that he wanted to change the dealer for his person to open a few dice, so it was done, Let the old man not only lose the capital and owe a lot of debts, but also lose his daughter! Ha ha! ”

"Huh? If you change a dealer, you must be able to let whoever loses lose, this... Could it be that the gambling houses do this? ”

"It's a little trick to get out of the old man, Chen Gongzi don't look at him as a straw bag, but somehow he made a strange person, that person can rely on his own internal force to control the points in the dice cup, and he can do it without knowing it. It's just that that person is arrogant and arrogant, and Chen Gongzi is willing to go after a long time, and I heard that the person is still from the Futu Gate on the rivers and lakes that makes people frightened when they hear the name."

"Ah, it's the Futu Sect that defeated the four masters and the five masters in one year?"

…………

The tragic ending of this story has already been prepared for herself, and this tragic ending is also her revenge for her father's addiction to gambling. Her death is also in the hope that her father can be alerted so that he can wash his hands and become a new person.

Thinking of this, Yan'er suddenly wanted to laugh, and suddenly wanted to cry in an instant, her life was so sad and ridiculous.

As if after crawling in the endless darkness for many days and finally finding the broken light that leads to heaven, the physically and mentally exhausted Yan'er staggered and leaned against the sedan chair behind her and slowly closed her eyes, and before exhaustion ate the last trace of consciousness, she raised her hand and touched a small bottle hidden in her belt, well, this is fate! …… It's a pity that I'll never see Brother Aoki again.
