Chapter 34: The Waiting Bride of the Qing Dynasty

This person is slender and slim, like a young girl in her prime of life.

Qin Sisi was very surprised, she had imagined a lot of images of this ghost before, male or female, old or young, tall or short, fat or thin, but she didn't expect it to be such a slender beauty with red makeup.

This woman is dressed in a bright red dress, the fabric of the clothes is as shiny as new, the hand-buckled on the right side of the blouse is ancient, the graceful long skirt hangs down to the ankles, revealing a pair of small and delicate embroidered shoes, the cuffs and skirt are embroidered with various colored silk threads with complex patterns, and the head is a phoenix crown with a crown full of pearls, and the twelve silver glittering bead curtains hang down from the crown, covering the beautiful face.

This dress is a bit like ...... Bride?

Yes, the bride.

The red wedding dress, the phoenix crown and the twelve bead curtains are all the costumes of ancient brides.

But how could a jubilant bride become a lonely ghost who never saw the light of day? Could it be that something happened on the day of marriage?

Qin Sisi was full of doubts, and quietly looked at the bride in red, waiting for her to recover her senses and solve the riddle.

The bride in red finally slowly opened her eyes, looked around in confusion, and then opened the beaded curtains covering her face and gathered them on both sides, revealing a face with delicate makeup, willow eyebrows and almond eyes, and snow-skinned cherry lips.

The bride in red blinked, and when she saw Qin Sisi not far away, her face became a little more uneasy, and she asked softly, "Who are you?"

Although Ye You had said that this yin ghost had no resentment, Qin Sisi still held the wrath of the divine dog in his hand just in case, but at this moment, seeing the woman in front of him with a cautious, harmless appearance of humans and animals, Qin Sisi felt that he was thinking too much.

Seeing that the bride in red was looking at her with a pair of big watery eyes, Qin Sisi hurriedly replied gently: "My name is Qin Sisi, and this is my home." ”

"Miss Qin. The bride in red bowed dignifiedly, and then asked strangely, "Excuse me, why did I come to your house? ”

Qin Sisi didn't know how to answer this question, she glanced at Ye You, and saw that his expression was as usual, so she decided to tell the truth: "He brought you here." ”

Qin Sisi pointed with his chin in the direction where Ye Yu was, successfully attracting the attention of the bride in red.

The bride in red looked at Ye You, her face suddenly changed, and she said urgently: "Yes, it's him, I was waiting for someone at my door, this cat suddenly rushed over, his body radiated a purple light, and then, I didn't know anything." ”

Ye You didn't care about the mood of the bride in red at all, and instead urged Qin Sisi to hurry up and ask something valuable.

Qin Sisi captured some information from the bride in red, and asked her, "You said you were waiting for someone at the door?"

The bride in red nodded, her cheeks flushed with shyness, and she whispered, "I'm waiting for the sedan chair, Brother Heng will come to marry me soon." After speaking, he asked Qin Sisi again: "Miss Qin, can you send me back?"

Waiting for the sedan chair, it seems that something happened on the day of marriage.

Qin Sisi saw that the bride in red was very ignorant, so he followed her and said, "Yes, can you tell me what your name is?"

The bride in red replied gently, "My name is Xiu Ai." ”

"Xiu Ai, a nice name. Qin Sisi smiled at her and asked, "May I ask what year is your birthday?"

Xiu Ai replied lightly: "I was born on the eleventh day of the winter month of the seventh year of Guangxu. ”

Qin Sisi quickly checked it with his mobile phone, the seventh year of Guangxu was 1881, Qin Sisi looked at Ye You and said: "Her date of birth is November 11, 1881. ”

Ye Yu said lightly: "There are too many words, it is difficult to form a pair, and it is destined to be lonely." ”

A trace of pity flashed in Qin Sisi's eyes, and he turned to Xiu Ai and said, "Xiu Ai, do you know what time it is?"

Xiu Ai's face was shy, and her voice was like a warbler's cry: "It is now the twenty-third day of September in the twenty-fourth year of Guangxu, and it is the day when Brother Heng and I get married. ”

Qin Sisi shook his head and said seriously and seriously: "Xiu Ai, it's 2017, and more than 100 years have passed since the twenty-fourth year of Guangxu. ”

Xiu Ai's face changed greatly, and he said urgently: "Impossible, I just waited at the door for a while, Brother Heng said that he would come to marry me, he will definitely come, he will come soon." ”

Qin Sisi's eyes were slightly dark, and he looked at the night with some helplessness, the most difficult person to wake up was the person who pretended to be asleep, Xiu Ai was too obsessed, and he had been immersed in his lovesickness and waiting for more than a hundred years, refusing to wake up.

Ye Yu pondered for a moment, then looked up at the electric light that shone brightly overhead.

Qin Sisi comprehended, his eyes rolled, his hands folded together, casting a small thick shadow under the lamp, and then said to Xiu Ai: "Xiu Ai, what do you see the shadow of my hand looks like?"

Xiu Ai looked down inexplicably, looked at it for a moment and said, "It's like a little bird." ”

Qin Sisi smiled and said, "Yes, do you know how to play this?"

The seventeen-year-old girl still had a strong curiosity, as Qin Sisi expected, Xiu Ai really stretched out her hands, and followed Qin Sisi's appearance and overlapped each other, but when she looked down at the shadow, her whole body suddenly froze, and her face turned pale.

Qin Sisi knew that the goal had been achieved, so he put his hand down and said in a deep voice: "Xiu Ai, see it, you have no shadow, you are not a person at all, you have been dead for more than a hundred years, and now you are just a ghost." ”

Xiu Ai's body trembled violently, shook her head sharply and said, "How could it be?

Qin Sisi struck while the iron was hot and said: "Xiu Ai, wake up, you have been lying to yourself for more than a hundred years, it's time to wake up, the person you are waiting for will not come again." ”

Xiu Ai's face turned pale, and she shook her head in panic as she took a few steps back weakly, her slender fingers gripping the edge of the table, gasping sharply.

The beautiful dream that had been woven for more than a hundred years was suddenly shattered in this way, and the picture of the memory that had been deliberately forgotten gradually became clear, and the heart-rending pain hit violently like a violent storm, and Xiu Ai closed her eyes in pain.

Qin Sisi couldn't bear to say anything more, so he just looked at this infatuated woman quietly, waiting for her to really come to her senses.

I don't know how long it took, Xiu Ai slowly opened her eyes again, and this time, her expression was no longer ignorant and shy, but dyed with a thick layer of sadness.
