Chapter 117: The Eve of the Big Wedding
They found the fishing tools left by the fisherman in the middle of the lake, and Su Qing traveled south and north in the army, although he was not proficient in these things, but he could be used, so he hung the bait and threw it into the ice cave on the river.
Su Qing stepped on the fishing rod under his feet, took off his gloves and rubbed them, and after rubbing them hot, he held Song Xinshu's hand and said, "This will be fine for a while, I heard that the fish are all underwater at this time, and they are very easy to catch, so they won't feel too cold, right?" ”
Song Xinshu shook his head, squatting a little closer to him, both of them stared at the ice cave on the river, and after a while, the fishing rod finally moved, Su Qing hurriedly lifted the fishing rod, and there was indeed a big fish hanging on the fishing line.
Song Xinshu exclaimed when he saw this, Su Qing carried the hay through the fish's mouth and held it in his hand, and then pulled Song Xinshu up from the ground.
The two walked home arm in arm, and when they got home, it was already dark.
From a distance, they saw Lin Guifen guarding the door of the tea house, constantly looking towards the intersection.
Song Xinshu trotted over and grabbed her arm and said, "Mother, why are you standing here so cold?" ”
Lin Guifen felt a lot relieved when she saw them coming back, but she still nodded at Song Xinshu's forehead and said, "Where did you go, you only came back now, your eldest brother went to the village to deliver invitations and is now back." ”
Su Qing shook the fish and said, "Mother, let's go fishing, we can boil fish soup when we go home in a while, and let you taste my craft in a while." ”
Although Lin Guifen blamed her mouth, she was also very happy when she saw that Song Xinshu was in a good mood, at that time she was most afraid that Song Xinshu would collapse, but now it seems that she can rest assured.
When Su Qing was in the army, he would also cook by himself, and sometimes when he encountered a river on the road, it was the happiest thing to catch a few fish to make fish soup.
Song Xinshu's enthusiasm was also very high, and he followed Su Qing to the kitchen, and saw that he had cleaned up the fish after dividing it by two, then boiled the oil in the pot, put the fish in and fried it on both sides, and when it was golden on both sides, it was time to enter the water, and after the water boiled, a few pieces of cut tofu were put in.
Song Xinshu watched from the side, and saw that his method was different from what he had seen before, and many steps were omitted, but seeing his confident appearance when he poured the seasoning into it, he subconsciously felt that this fish soup was delicious.
After everything was put down, Su Qing put the lid on the pot, and then waited for the fish pond to boil.
Song Xinshu and Su Qing were talking around the fire, and after half an hour, the fish pond was also healed, and the whole house was filled with the aroma of the fish pond.
She swallowed her saliva and said, "This fish soup is too fragrant, I haven't drunk it for a long time." ”
Su Qing touched Song Xinshu's head dotingly and said, "Then go and call your father and mother, and I'll bring the fish pond over in a while." ”
After the family drank the fish pond, they also felt warm in the winter night, and Song Xinshu and Su Qing returned to the room.
She had walked a lot today and felt very tired, so she lay on the bed with her clothes, and Su Qing also lay beside her and hugged her shoulders.
"The lady is tired today, so it's better to go to bed early."
Song Xinshu shook his head and said: "Although I am tired, I don't want to sleep now, the day after tomorrow is the day of my second brother's wedding, I always feel excited when I think about it, and I can't sleep." ”
"If you like it, we can also get married again, and do it again, if you think it's good, we'll do it once a month in the future, okay?"
Song Xinshu was amused by his words, slapped his arm and said: "It's just a poor mouth, the white jade you brought back last time is almost ready for the craftsman, and I'll take it to Su Tao tomorrow, and she can also wear it on the day she gets married." ”
"You said before that you were going to give it to Su Tao, but this thing has not been done after a lot of work, and it will finally be done tomorrow, so I will send it with you."
"When our future children grow up, we will have to do such a grand event when we get married."
Su Qing didn't expect her to take the initiative to mention the child's matter, and gently hugged her and said, "Then I'll teach him to read and write, you are so talented, our child will definitely be knowledgeable in the future." ”
The two of them whispered their fantasies about the future, if it weren't for Su Qing by her side to take care of her, she wouldn't be okay so quickly.
In short, with him by her side, she doesn't have to worry about anything, no matter what happens, he will accompany her and help her get through.
At this time, Song Caishu was in a nervous state, he hadn't seen Yu Sutao for a month, although there were a few letters back and forth, but he still missed it very much.
He really wanted to visit Yu Sutao secretly, but he heard that if the man and woman meet again after the marriage, it will be difficult for several years after they get married.
So he endured not going to see Yu Sutao, and finally got to the night before the wedding, Song Caishu tried on the groom's clothes to be worn tomorrow in the room.
After he got dressed, he turned around in front of Song Caishu and said, "Big brother, how about you take a look?" ”
Song Huaishu looked at his high-spirited appearance, walked up to him with a smile and tidied up his collar for him and said, "It's very good-looking, I will go to the Yu family tomorrow and marry the second brother and sister back in a beautiful way." ”
Song Caishu was nervous and proud, looking at Song Huaishu looking at him with a smile in his eyes, he said: "Big brother should be anxious, Xiao Mu is still young, there are only three of us brothers and sisters left, when will we have a sister-in-law?" ”
"You'd better worry about your wedding tomorrow, don't be too nervous when it's time to visit the church!"
Song Huaishu scratched his head and said, "I'm nervous, and when I think about getting married tomorrow, my palms start to sweat." ”
"Don't be nervous, it's not good to be too nervous and go wrong." Song Huaishu patted him on the shoulder and said.
Although he said this, Song Caishu's heart was still nervous, and he didn't sleep much all night, and he turned over and got up when it was dark.
At this time, Lin Guifen was already busy, and in order to get married today, she hired several helpers to prepare the banquet and clean up.
"Mother, the gong and drum team that picks up relatives at the door has arrived, and we can set off now!"
Lin Guifen also wore jujube red clothes today, and said happily: "What are you doing in such a hurry, it's not time yet, call the gong and drum team in to drink hot soup first, and then we'll leave when the time comes." ”
When all the sun's rays fell on the earth, Song Caishu rode a high-headed horse on the road, and Song Huaishu also rode a horse to follow him.
Along the way, the gongs and drums were noisy, and the people on the road looked over here, all talking about whose family was marrying, such a big battle.
When they arrived in the village, there were even more onlookers, and everyone in the village knew that this was the Yu family's daughter who was married, and they knew that they were married to a big family in Jinling City.
"I heard that it was decided a year ago, who would have known that the little daughter of the Yu family could marry so well?"
"I heard that I spent a lot of money to find a matchmaker, and I specially said that she is a good person!"
Song Caishu sat on the horse, and he couldn't hear the whispers of people on the side of the road at all, and he only had Yu Sutao in his heart now, thinking that he was going to see her in a while, and his nervous palms were sweating.
The group came to the gate of the Yu family, Yu's father and Yu's mother were already waiting at the door, looking at them with a smile, Song Caishu turned over and dismounted, walked over and said, "Daddy, I'm here to pick up Su Tao!" ”
Father Yu patted Song Caishu on the shoulder and said, "You have to treat her well, if your kid treats her badly, I will teach you a lesson!" ”
Song Caishu said seriously: "I will definitely be good to Su Tao, don't worry, Daddy!" ”
Yu's mother couldn't stop wiping her tears, and Yu's father said to her: "Today's big day, don't cry, bring people in." ”
Although Yu's father said this, he still felt very uncomfortable in his heart, and his daughter, who had been raised by the family for more than ten years, would definitely be reluctant to marry once she got married.
In the future, his baby daughter will be asked to marry into someone else's family to be a daughter-in-law, but fortunately, Song Caishu's child is good, and he can rest assured.
Song Caishu came to Yu Sutao's room, the door had been hung with red silk, Song Caishu was standing at the door, and Yu's mother went in and helped Yu Sutao out with a red hijab.
Song Caishu imagined the shy face under the hijab, Yu's mother handed Yu Sutao's hand to Song Caishu's hand, and he solemnly took her hand.
Her hands were soft and warm, Song Caishu held her hand tightly, led her out of the house, there was already a sedan chair waiting at the door, the matchmaker stood aside and lifted the sedan curtain, Yu Sutao stepped in carefully.
She is glad to have a hijab to cover her face now, otherwise she would definitely be seen by others with her red face, which would be really ashamed.
I didn't expect that she would have such a day, she took a deep breath and kept stirring the handkerchief in her hand, for fear that she would have something to look like in a while.
The sedan chair bumped all the way to the Subei Tea House, Song Xinshu and Su Qing were already waiting at the door, Song Caishu jumped down from the horse and said, "Third sister, I'm back!" ”
Song Xinshu helped him sort out the big red flower on his chest, and said, "I sent someone to pick up Yu's father and Yu's mother, let's take the bride in first!" ”
Song Caishu nodded excitedly and invited Yu Sutao out of the sedan chair.
Song Xinshu looked at them with a smile, and he was also very happy in his heart, Lin Guifen and Song Liangmin were already sitting in the hall.
The brazier that the bride wants to cross and the apple she wants to hold in her hand have also been prepared, Song Xinshu handed the apple to Yu Sutao's hand, and whispered to her: "Welcome to our house!" ”
Yu Sutao nodded slightly, and then led by Song Caishu, walking forward step by step.
Su Qing said in Song Xinshu's ear: "Now the second brother is happy, he has been panicking every day for the past month, and today he finally got his wish." ”
Song Xinshu nodded and said: "It seems that the second brother really likes Yu Sutao, and it is not easy to get married under the premise of liking each other in this era, right?" ”
