That night, Chun Niu slept in the East Room with the woman, and I sat with Chunya on the straw shop in the West House and talked.

At this time, I had already changed out of the silk dress on my body and changed to a set of burlap skirts of spring buds.

"Noble girl, can I touch your clothes? I've never seen a silk garment this big! Chunya sat cross-legged beside me, her eyes eager to stick to the scarlet dress.

"If you like it, try it!" I shook the gown and spread it out on the bed.

The color, material, and thread used in the clothes of Baili Mansion are rare and gorgeous. The embroidery on the edge and hem of the gown was made of four bundles of gold thread. Under the dark candle, the entwined vines emitted a faint golden light, which stunned the eyes of the spring buds.

"Can I wear it? Are you sure? Chunya suddenly panicked at the dress, she got up and combed her hair, rubbed her hands, and swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva.

"Chunya, do you have a wedding dress?" I asked with a smile.

"Uh-yes, that's what the lady wears." Chunya touched the silk silk under her hand and muttered to herself, "So this is silk......

I looked down at the brand-new linen skirt on my body, and my heart warmed, so I pushed the dress to the side of Chunya: "Then I'll give it to you as a wedding dress, right?" ”

"How can this be done?" Chunya was startled, and hurriedly waved her hand and said, "If I wear this, I will be killed." No, no, no. ”

"You go and get me some needle and thread, and I'll change the style for you, and you can wear it when you get married."

"Lady, do you mean it really?"

"Naturally, it's true, I'm still stunned to do something, get me a needle and thread!"

That night, I dismantled the threads of the dress that Baili Mansion had made for me and sewed it into the style of the dark clothes that the common people were allowed to wear when they got married. Chunya held her chin and watched happily by my side all night, and when it was almost dawn, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

At noon, when Chunya appeared in the East House in my freshly sewn wedding dress, tears welled up in the woman's eyes. She watched her soon-to-be-married daughter cover her mouth and wept silently.

Last night, the woman drank a few sips of turbid wine, and proudly told me that when her man died, she did not cry, and that their mother and wife were grass in the field, and they could live no matter how dry the land was, and they could live without men.

But today she cried, holding her two daughters and crying.

I suddenly missed my mother madly, if she was still alive, if she also had the opportunity to see me put on my wedding dress, would she also cry, and she would cry like a woman.

I originally thought that I would stay for one night and continue to the northwest, but the woman would not let me go, and insisted that I be left to attend the wedding of Chunya and Ah Niu. I couldn't refuse, so I stayed.

On the day of the wedding, Chunniu and a few older children in the village touched a basket of small fish from Weishui. The woman was burning the fire and boiling the fish soup, her eyebrows were smiling, her eyes were smiling, and even the deep and shallow wrinkles on her forehead were smiling. The other old women in the village who had come to help sat in the courtyard chatting and picking wild vegetables, and they all said that the widow's family finally had a happy event.

The person Chunya wants to marry is Ah Niu from the same village, and the honest and honest young man was speechless when he saw Chunya with a high bun in Zhu Yi, and he smirked and popped out two words for a long time: "Good-looking." ”

Chunya has no man in charge of the family, and Ah Niu wants to live in after marrying Chunya. Their wedding was completely different from what I had learned at Mujiao. There were no sacrifices to the gods, no witch blessings, just a group of men and women gathered in the courtyard to drink and chat, and make a lot of noise.

I couldn't stay idle in the house, so I ran out to divide the wild vegetables and fish soup for the woman, and a few village boys thought I was a distant sister of the Chunya family, so they gathered around me and told some jokes.

It dawned on me that I loved these kinds of days. Relaxed and comfortable, empty heart, empty mind, no need to think about life and death matters, no need to bother with scheming, just think about how many small fish to put in a pot of water, how many handfuls of wild vegetables to put in, with or without salt.

"Girl, add me another bowl of soup!" Someone behind me put a bowl on my back.

"It's coming—" I scooped a spoonful of white and tender fish soup and turned around with a smile.

And then...... I poured a spoonful of fish soup on the man's head along with two wild herbs, and then pushed away the crowd and ran out.

When Kuroko caught me, there was a burnt wild vegetable hanging on top of his head, and I had smashed a large bag on my forehead with a stone. Of course, I didn't look much better.

"You let go of me—" My hands and feet were tied with hemp rope by Kuroko, and if I put a wooden stick in the middle, I could be carried away as a wild boar.

"Dead girl, master, I have long seen that you are not a good thing. You're going to push me into the fire pit! Kuroko carried me on his shoulder, complaining as he went, and the tone of his voice seemed to be how many unconscionable things I had done.

"Why did I push you into the fire pit? If you want to kill me, won't you let me escape?" "I leaned on his back and slammed my hands into fists on the back of his head.

"You-sir, I slaughtered you!" Kuroko put me on the ground in pain, covered my head with one hand, and drew his sword with the other.

"I'm not a Briele red medicine, why should I die for her!" I closed my eyes and yelled at him.

"What did you say?"

"I said I wasn't a Berry's red medicine. My name is Ah Shi, and I am an orphan girl picked up by General Qin. I have no father or mother, I have to eat, I have fights, and I am indeed not a good thing. If you want to kill, kill it! I opened my eyes and looked at Kuroko, and pressed my neck against his sword.

Heizi was startled and put his sword back: "You girl is full of lies, I don't believe you." ”

"It's your own clumsiness, the daughter of the Baili clan is eighteen this year, and she has already tied her hair and hair. I'm under fifteen, and I'm combing the total horn. Besides, on that day, the red medicine was wearing red, and I was wearing vermilion. Crimson is the positive color, which is respected. I humbled her at a glance. ”

"You mean, the one who drank the Forget Worry wine and was thrown into the river by the uncle that day is the daughter of Baili Mansion?" Kuroko's eyes were like brass bells, and he stammered a little when he was surprised, "Then, what about your dagger?" ”

"If you go to Yongcheng to inquire and inquire, you will know that Gongzili has always been good with Ah Shi of the General's Mansion. There are many such things in the General's Mansion. Since you have taken on the job of killing, you should inquire clearly and be prepared before you start. If you rush forward like this, even if you don't plant it in my hands this time, you will die sooner or later! ”

Kuroko was gagged by my words, and muttered for a long time and couldn't speak again.

"Hongyao must have returned home now, and the people of the Baili clan will only see Lou Shaokang's body alone when they arrive in Meilin. Your plan has failed, I advise you to release me quickly, and inform your uncle that it is important to escape as soon as possible! ”

Listening to my words, Kuroko's face turned red and white. On a cold spring day, a dense layer of fine sweat broke out on the hairline of his forehead.

My damn sympathy immediately popped up, and I stood up and whispered, "I've ruined your business, you won't really be sent to death when you go back, right?" I'm not going back to Baili Mansion, or- you let me go, and we'll run away together? ”

Kuroko looked at me blankly, squatted down, and carried me on his shoulders with his big hand: "Even if I die, I have to go back." ”

"Did they poison you too? Is it still death if you don't go back? I asked as I leaned down behind him.

"What nonsense! You don't understand! Kuroko choked and said slowly, "Even if you are not the daughter of the Baili clan, I can't let you go now." But don't worry, Uncle likes you very much, and he was still chattering with Uncle Spear two days ago, saying that you are a talent, and it is a pity to die. I'll take you back to the boat first, and when the two of them come back from their errands, I'll feed you some wine and let you go. ”

"You're really going to let me go?" Hearing Kuroko say this, I immediately stopped struggling and obediently lay on his shoulder.

"I think so......" Kuroko replied sullenly, and walked briskly towards Weishui.
