Chapter Ninety-One: The So-Called Love
Wei Qi was finally forced to agree to Jiang Feng's conditions, not only providing enough money and food, but also promising to give Cai Wenji a letter of resignation. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
When Cai Wenji got this letter of resignation, she was very calm. There was neither sadness nor joy, as if something ordinary had happened.
Jiang Feng knew that Cai Wenji and Wei Zhongdao actually had no feelings, and in the past few months, the relationship between the two was more like that between a patient and a nurse, a relationship between taking care and being taken care of.
Jiang Feng originally thought that Cai Wenji should have a sense of relief, but it didn't seem to be.
Jiang Feng still misjudged what marriage meant to both men and women in ancient times.
More than 1,800 years ago, people realized that there was no concept of love at all. Even if there is a so-called love story, like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. How did two people get married? It's just that the Cowherd stole the Weaver Girl's clothes, so that she couldn't go back to Heaven, and then the two got married.
Love is a word invented by modern people, which was unimaginable in ancient times.
We are all very familiar with the words in the Book of Songs: Death and life are broad, and Zicheng speaks. Hold the hand of the son, and grow old with the son.
Now we will use it to describe love, but in fact, the name of this poem is "Drumming", and it is about brotherhood on the battlefield. As for poems such as "Pu Jia", they can only be said to be courtship poems for men, or hymns to women, not love poems.
In ancient times, marriage was not based on love. There are only two foundations of marriage, the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker.
First of all, some people should say that the poor are looking for matchmakers, and the purpose is actually to put gold on their faces. Large families are not looking for matchmakers, but matchmakers, most of whom are highly respected people, or relatives and friends who know both men and women.
The matchmaker pulled the line, and the parents of the two families judged the family, character, and birth date of both parties, and if they felt suitable, they could directly talk about marriage. Men and women do not need to meet in person throughout.
As for divorce, it is even simpler, marriage also needs a ceremony, and divorce only requires a letter of resignation. The right to divorce is entirely in the hands of the man, and the woman does not have this right.
Therefore, for Cai Wenji, the beginning and end of this marriage is not something she can decide, all she can do is accept.
And there weren't too many books on marriage descriptions in ancient times, and no one taught Cai Wenji what marriage was like. All of Tsai's knowledge about marriage comes from her parents.
It's just that Cai Yong is an old man, and now Cai Yong is almost sixty years old, Cai Wenji has looked at her parents as respectful since she was a child, what kind of men love women, you and I don't know anything at all. When she arrived at the Wei family, although Wei Zhongdao was seriously ill, Cai Wenji didn't have too many expectations, after all, she subconsciously thought that marriage was dull.
However, Lu Bu's appearance still made Cai Wenji feel a ripple, and when the Wei family saw Lu Bu for the first time, Cai Wenji's mood was very complicated.
With the knowledge she was in contact with now, she couldn't explain her feelings for this man. Ever since the two first met on the hillside, Cai Wenji had noticed the indescribable emotions that this man had brought her.
Cai Wenji herself felt something wonderful, according to the teachings of the sages, she should not have any entanglement with a strange man. But knowing this, she still took Jiang Feng's flute very unreasonably.
During the time she came to the Wei family, Cai Wenji was almost in a completely unfamiliar environment, and the only familiar person around her was her maid. In addition to her husband's serious illness, her life in the Wei family is very unhappy. At this time, she will miss this person who has only met once, and even sometimes fantasize, if the person she married was him, would the situation still be like this?
Cai Wenji never expected that she would really face this situation today.
At this time, Lu Bu was in front of her and asked affectionately, "I like you, are you willing to marry me?" Let me take care of you in the future, I won't let you be bullied and drift again. ”
"Like me?" Cai Wenji didn't quite understand Jiang Feng's expression, is this another courtship? Shouldn't you ask your parents for a kiss? Why do you want to say that to me? It's a shame. The most common expression in modern times, in the Three Kingdoms period, is shocking.
Cai Wenji didn't dare to make her own decisions, and replied: "The concubine has the posture of a willow, thanks to the favor of the general, but she still needs to tell her father about lifelong events, and the concubine can't be the master." ”
Jiang Feng took two steps forward, only walking to a distance of half a step from Cai Wenji, and said, "I don't care if your father agrees, I only ask you, are you willing?" ”
Cai Wenji looked at the man in front of her, and suddenly had a feeling of wanting to jump into his arms, how can this be, men and women don't kiss, what's wrong with me. Cai Wenji felt that her face was hot, and said in a low voice: "General, how do you let the concubine answer such a question?" ”
Of course Cai Wenji didn't dare to answer, ancient women could only express loyalty to their husbands, where could they say anything to a strange man who liked it or not? What's more, he has just been divorced by his husband's family, and it is even more difficult to talk about such a thing at this time.
Jiang Feng was most concerned about Cai Wenji's own thoughts, because Jiang Feng had an inexplicable feeling from the first time he met Cai Wenji on the hillside. In ancient times, Jiang Feng didn't know what it was called, but in modern times, there is a term called love at first sight.
Jiang Feng said: "Don't you have a little feeling for me?" If not, why did you take my flute, and still stay with you. Why did you play the song "Smiling Proud Jianghu"? You have me in your heart, right? ”
Cai Wenji faced Jiang Feng's eager questioning, a series of questions that she didn't dare to admit, she only felt that her face was getting redder and redder, her heart was beating faster and faster, and her ten fingers were mixed together, and she didn't know what to do?
Suddenly, Cai Wenji only felt light, and she had fallen into a broad and powerful chest, and a powerful heartbeat sounded in her ears. And my heartbeat can't help but want to close this beat at this moment.
Then, I listened to Jiang Feng whisper in her ear: "I will take care of you for the rest of my life, and I will not let you be bullied or wronged again." ”
In an instant, I don't know why, the white eyes and grievances of the Wei family that I have received in the past few months all came to my heart, Cai Wenji is only a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl after all, even if the ancients were precocious, they couldn't hide their emotions at this time. "Wow" cried out, and his hands unconsciously hugged Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng gently stroked Cai Wenji's long hair, just quietly waiting for her to finish crying slowly, her heart must be full of grievances during this time, and it will be much better to vent it.
When Cai Wenji's crying gradually became smaller, Jiang Feng said: "Wenji, when this battle is over, I will go and propose to your father and ask him to marry you to me, okay?" ”
Cai Wenji nodded, she knew that she shouldn't do this, men and women can't kiss, and now she is being held in the arms of a man who has nothing to do with it, if her father knows about it, I'm afraid she will be killed. But Cai Wenji is not afraid now, even if she dies, she is willing to exchange for this moment of tenderness.
