Long Keduo knelt on the futon, and the wind outside the courtyard blew day and night, sometimes bleak, sometimes cold. The chill gradually gathered around him, his will gradually blurred, but the words of Zhiying lingered clearly: "You still don't know what Cihuang thinks about you, think about it yourself, you Ama already has high hopes for you." ”

Every time Long Keduo recalls Cihuang, an indescribable taste arises spontaneously.

Ci Huang held the umbrella and left abruptly, the rain has been shrouding Sijiu City, Long Keduo sighed. The figure looked extremely lonely in the rain, and in all fairness, he didn't like Cihuang as much as disgusted. The impression is still that of the rude, willful, and reckless Hesherigge.

In order to avoid her, Long Keduo almost tried his best, either to find a sick bed, or to get together with three or two friends, or to have a hangover Zhang Tailiu. But after all, he couldn't beat the profit, and the profit has already been decided.

He is not a person who is willing to live according to the rules, let alone a lifelong marriage. Roncodo believes that there is always room for things to turn around, and even if it is a foregone conclusion, he will have to fight with his own small means.

At this time, the night is as cool as water, and the second watch of the gong has passed, and the wind has stopped for a while, and there is moonlight reflected in the corridor. Regardless of his current measures, Zhiying replied as before. Roncodo is gradually declining.

Qing Shi wrapped his cloak tightly and came towards the Tong ancestral hall, Long Keduo turned around when he heard the sound and urged her: "It's windy at night, go back quickly." Qing Shi stood still under the eaves: "Enie told me." Seeing that his face was slightly gloomy, he comforted him again, "Third brother, there are some things you can't change......

"Did Ene convince me?"

Qing Shi paced forward two steps and said: "What does it matter if Enie asked me to come, I only remember that it was the third brother who persuaded Ah Ning four years ago, and now Ah Ning should also come to persuade you." ”

Long Keduo looked up at the sky, and was silent for a long time before asking in a low voice, and there seemed to be helplessness in his words: "Do you believe in the destiny of heaven?" Qing Shi pondered for a moment and said: "What can I do if I don't believe in it, I didn't believe in fate when I was a child, I often think that I was born to a father, why others are doing well, but I can only suffer from cold eyes with Eni, and now although there is no shortage of food and clothing, but everywhere is restricted." The road ahead has long been controlled by them, so where do we have a choice? ”

"I don't want to be tied up like this." He said firmly, his eyes were shining, and he looked at him at a loss, and it took him about a long time before he slowly asked, "Ah Ning, can you understand how it feels to face someone you don't love all day?" ”

Qing Shi shook his head and said, "Ah Ning doesn't understand. After a pause, he said, "But Ah Ning knows that the third brother is unwilling to marry her, how could he ever think about Sister Huang's feelings?" She is willful and delicate, but she is also an ordinary woman, you can not love her, ignore her, or marry a few more ladies like Amma, but what about her, the order of her parents cannot be resisted, and the person who thinks of her heart does not love herself, and can only live in a false name for the rest of her life, isn't she pitiful? ”

Long Keduo couldn't believe that these words would come out of Qing Shi's mouth, and he tried to calm down: "Because of this, I hope to withdraw from the marriage before the ceremony." She deserves a better home. Qing Shi frowned and shook his head, "Third brother, don't you understand it yet, it's impossible." Enie attaches great importance to this marriage. If you divorce, you will be fine, but what will be the reputation of an unmarried woman? ”

The breeze swept across his face, chilling like bones. He sat down abruptly, speechless for a long time, and sighed almost inaudibly: "Ah Ning, do you want me to marry her?" ”

Hopefully? I don't know if I want to ask myself, whether I want to or not, at this moment, I met his eyes Qing Shi was a little dodging, and after hesitating for a long time, Qing Shi finally nodded.

On the tenth day of the first month of September, the profit was arranged for the whole marriage, the exchange of ceremonies, and the expenses of the six bureaus, and there was no confusion. When the two of them combined the eight characters to calculate the auspiciousness, the wedding date was close to the lunar month.

Ten miles in front of Tong's mansion with red makeup, gongs and drums, red lights hanging high on the eaves, and lights everywhere in the house are colorful, full of joy. Qing Shi couldn't help but look up, reflecting a luxurious scene.

"Ah Ning......" Long Keduo swallowed it raw. The auspicious time is almost here, why is the third brother still here? Qing Shi looked back and smiled, only to see Long Keduo wearing a big red tuanhua robe, covered with a red placket trimmed vest, handsome, extraordinary, but his face was sad. Seeing that he was silent for a long time, Qing Shi took two steps closer and looked up at him, pretending to be sad and said, "Why doesn't the third brother ignore me?" ”

Long Keduo barely laughed, but someone came to urge: "Third Young Master, the auspicious time has arrived, Madame is waiting for you to go over to greet you." He turned to look at Qing Shi, and swallowed the words back to his mouth, but he couldn't speak after all.

At three o'clock in the morning, the deacons were lined up, the Tong family sent a sedan chair to welcome the relatives, and the drum music was noisy, so that the crowds in Sijiu City were crowded, the Tong family was originally the emperor's family, and the Hesheri family also belonged to the hairpins. Since it has been rumored to be a good relationship by the market.

After bidding farewell to his parents and getting into the sedan chair, Cihuang quietly lifted the red curtain and looked out at the Hesheri Mansion slowly becoming smaller, until it was melted into the sky by firecrackers, and sighed softly. Soon it was replaced by joy again, and Ci Huang stepped into the Tong Mansion with shyness, but she didn't know that the misfortune of this life began here.

The sedan chair entered the Tong Mansion, first passing through the brazier, Long Keduo had already stood in front of the case, holding a bow and arrow to shoot three arrows at the sedan car door, in order to drive away the evil spirit. After that, the sister-in-law helped the resignation phoenix to get off the sedan chair, took the red silk vase, and the deacon took the red felt, so that her feet did not touch the ground.

The next step is to worship the heavens and the earth, and the two of them bow down as rituals. Although it is complicated, Cihuang can be a little good, as early as the month before she got married, she was already familiar with it, just because this moment is her long-cherished wish for many years.

The last bow is husband and wife, resignation and bowing, but Long Keduo seems to be frozen, he hesitated for a long time, she couldn't see the movement, but she could hear the slight noise of the crowd around her, so she called him in a low voice: "Husband? ”

Tongzan sang again, and Long Keduo bowed to her, and then sent it into the cave room to form a joint ceremony. The eldest woman of the Tong family pressed the newlyweds' clothes in one place, and after eating the dumplings of their children and grandchildren, it was the end. Ronkodo let out a long sigh and sat down on the edge of the bed. Ci Huang was shy at first, and seeing that he was silent for a long time, he asked softly, "But what did I do wrong?" ”

He couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and suddenly remembered that a few years ago when she swam in the lake, she fell into the water, the autumn water was biting, she woke up in his arms, her whole body was soaked, and she clung to him. At that time, how gentle he was, even if it was just out of common sense, Ci Huang could not forget how good it would be if he could always treat her like this. But now in such a scene, Ci Huang was filled with grief and indignation for a while, and asked Long Keduo: "Even if I am wrong, on the wedding night, are you treating me like this?" ”

He muttered for a long time before three words popped out of his mouth: "I'm sorry." ”

Ci Huang called: "Zhuyun ......" Seeing that he turned his face away, he pulled his sleeve and said, "I know you don't like me, I'm willful and rude, I can change these, and you can say anything, I will change it until you are satisfied, don't you want to be like this?" ”

Tears poured out of her eyes, but she didn't know that they were the tears that had accumulated in her heart for many years. Long Kedo wiped away her tears: "Don't cry, rest early, I'm going to give tea to Ama Ene tomorrow." ”

Ci Huang asked, "What about you?" Roncodo got up and walked outside.

"I'll go to the study."
