Chapter 230: Marriage
Chapter 230: Marriage
Grandpa said, "Radha is my granddaughter, my daughter's daughter, but I am not qualified to marry her to your family. β
As a result, Gerry and his father had no choice but to put away the approved bride price that they had just exchanged from the goblin caravan.
The Standard Chartered president of the Chamber of Commerce found me with a face full of surprise, screaming one by one, almost ......
Two days later, our group of people who had returned to their mother's house to visit their relatives, those who proposed to the Baku family, and the caravan from the Standard Chartered Chamber of Commerce, returned to the village of Weil.
Of course, it is said that it is said together, not side by side. We walked a little side by side with the caravan, and the Baku family courting party followed behind in the Kodo cart.
Back in Vir Village, the villagers were busy trading with the caravan and didn't pay much attention to the courtship, but Grandpa didn't neglect the family and arranged rooms for them.
Leo said, "The caravan is coming for you......"
Of course, I can also see that the chairman of Standard Chartered attaches great importance to our family's goods, and the price he gives is much more generous than in previous years, which is completely to curry favor.
"When you get back to Thunder City, you have to be careful not to get too close to them," Leo said, "You have an opponent now, as long as they catch your handle, they can make things up to fix you even if it's okay!" β
"I don't need to work with goblin merchants." I said, "Troll merchants are much more reliable than they are." β
"You can use it when you need it," said Leo, "just don't get caught." β
We discussed here, and over there, the caravan brought with us the abundant goods of previous years also attracted the attention of the villagers.
The deal continued until the next day, when the Baku family had time to formally court.
In front of the whole village, grandpa agreed without hurrying.
My sister burst into tears of laughter when she saw her grandfather nodding in agreement.
The wedding would take place in ten days, and I should be back to Thunder City after it was almost over - they thought I would have to run for at least ten days, so they counted the time on the road.
As much as I would have liked to have spent a little longer, they also tried to get me to stay three more days on the grounds that things were going on in the city.
"I'm trying to drive you away......" Leo joked.
I ignored him.
In the past ten days, my sister was full of worries every day, suffering from gains and losses, and often making mistakes in doing things, and even the wedding clothes were completed with the help of my mother and sister-in-law. The sister-in-law smiled and said, "I wasn't so nervous at the beginning...... and the mother complained: "I'm the same, I didn't expect my daughter to be in such a hurry to get married." β
I knew that my sister was thinking about me, so I quietly asked my sister and said: "If you feel wronged, you can not agree, anyway, our family lacks nothing, I don't want to ......"
"What stupid things are you talking about?" My sister interrupted me and said, "Do you think I just said yes while you're there?" That's a lot to think about! β
"Really?" I suddenly had some doubts.
"Stupid!" Leo said, "Can't you see she's coaxing you?" What a hurry for me! β
"Really?" I asked my sister.
My sister smiled and tapped on my right corner: "Even if you have the ability and talent, you are only my younger brother!" Are you afraid that if I get married, no one will come home to take care of you? β
She knocked on the right corner, and Leo suddenly shouted: "Hey, sisters, don't touch it!" Is it okay to be reserved? β
"You, take care of yourself." I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
"And, of course, Gerry, he's your brother-in-law from now on," said the sister, "and if he doesn't take good care of me, you can help me beat him!" β
"Hmm!" I nodded again and again, "Definitely!" β
A few days later, the Baku family came to pick up the relatives, and the leading greeting team was headed by Morgan, and the cousin, as a relative, was naturally not among them.
The people in the village said that they sent a few capable young men out to greet them, but they were beaten down by their mother: "Is there no one in the village who bullied my mother's family?" As soon as my two sons come out, who will win? Is my daughter still married? β
So, on our side, we only sent Patu and Ian to make temporary cameo appearances as trainee soldiers, and a few trainee soldiers with average strength went out to stop them and pretend to be good, so that the welcoming team could enter the village smoothly.
The next ritual was similar to when my brother married his sister-in-law, and the welcoming procession had done enough rituals, and we, as our mothers, entertained them in the drying field in front of the altar, and the next morning, our family followed us to Duodi Village, and we still ate two meals in a row.
It's just that when my brother married my sister-in-law, the banquet on my mother's side was obviously much worse than ours, and now, the situation is reversed, and the grade on my mother's side is higher......
"There's no way, you're just the local tyrants in this area...... Leo said, "the limelight of your in-laws has been stolen from you." β
He seemed to be complaining about our family, but I was still very proud in my heart.
I hadn't been to Baku's house before, and I had a little bit of communication with Morgan before, and I only passed by the door. The Baku family is also one of the best in Duodi Village, which is similar to my grandfather's house, but after all, it is a bit different.
Like his brother, the Baku family also built a new house for Gerry, and his sister and Gerry lived in it in the future.
The grandfather and elder brother stayed in the village, and the grandfather and parents, as elders, accepted the newlyweds' bows along with the old people of the Baku family.
I watched everyone hug my sister and Gerry in the midst of the commotion, walked into the big house of the Baku family, finished the prayer, watched my sister and Gerry's horns tied together by ropes, and finally untied them, and watched their faces filled with indelible and indelible happy smiles, and my heart was warm, but somehow, I felt sad again.
I knew I shouldn't have to, but I couldn't hold back it.
"Sad?" Leo said, "Generally speaking, only a father marrying a daughter will be sad to die or live, and a younger brother marrying a sister is generally happy. β
"That's you earthlings!" I looked at my father with a smile on her face and my mother with tears in her laughter, and said depressedly.
"Yes, there is a saying in our country that a daughter is the lover of her father's last life, and an older sister is the mother of her younger brother in her last life," said Leo, "and it seems that this thing is not so accurate, at least I have seen many siblings who seem to be mortal enemies......
"The ...... of the previous life Mother! "I was struck by that sentence.
Sister, she is really half my mother!
Thinking of this, I can't help but feel a sour in my heart......
As the ritual continued, my sister and Gerry were huddled towards the altar in the village of Duodie.
I followed my mom and dad and my grandfather and they went with me.
Next to him was the Baku family next to me, and Morgan smiled at me: "We will be a family from now on!" β
I forced a smile and nodded.
In front of the altar, my sister left the village of Ville and joined the village of Duodie, and from now on, this is her home.
That night, my parents and I were still staying at my grandfather's house, my father and grandfather, as well as two uncles and two cousins, all drank a lot and went to bed early, and my mother and aunts chatted for a while, and also coaxed Alan to sleep.
I'm the only one, and I can't sleep.
As the night wore on, the noise in the village quickly subsided, and the entire village of Duodi fell into a deep sleep, and I was the only one awake.
I gently walked out the door and came outside.
There was a moon in the night, and I looked up at the half-missing crescent, knowing that the fluorescence on its body was not emitted by itself, but reflected the brilliance of the sun, that it was missing half because the earth was between it and the sun, that the stars did not appear because they were too bright, that as long as I stood at the bottom of a deep enough well or high enough in the sky, the stars were still there, and that those stars were burning like the sun, and that the volume difference between them was a million times billions of times.
But what's the use of knowing that?
My sister is married, and she is no longer a member of the Doon family, and I, although I am still a member of the Doon family, still have to leave, in order to recreate the glory of the family, in order to fulfill my grandfather's long-cherished wish, in order to fulfill the last wish of the Feiyun Dao Chief, or in order to send Leo away, I have to leave.
The anguish in my heart is like a mess of entangled threads, and I can't figure it out!
"Feeling messed up?" Leo came out of nowhere, and at the right time, something out of place.
"You won't understand!" I said, "You don't have siblings, how can you understand my feelings?" β
"Who says you have to have siblings to understand? The reason why man is an intelligent creature is because we have intelligence, but also because we have feelings, or because we have feelings," Leo said, "Of course, the people I am talking about are not only minotaurs, or humans, or werewolves...... In any race, as long as there is a family structure and a social structure, each individual will have their own emotions, and they will have emotions because of what they have experienced, but this is much more advanced than the low-level fear, joy, and satisfaction of the beast, and more importantly, there is a skill called empathy ability, which allows us to experience each other's emotions without experiencing it ourselves. β
"I said a lot of nonsense, only the last few sentences are a little useful." I say.
"I'm just telling you, I can understand," Leo began to speak at length again, "As an otaku, I have read countless films and articles, so I can guess the direction of the plot, and at the same time, I am also watching and reading, with the experience of the protagonists, I indirectly experience their joys, sorrows, and sorrows, which is like experiencing many lives from the perspective of a bystander, even if some of them have experienced too naΓ―ve, simple and rude, and have experienced a lot, they are also insightful......"
He started to say a lot of things that I still didn't understand, but I didn't want to argue with him about anything, and just listening to his nonsense was kind of relaxing.
"You have to learn to face the world alone!" Leo concluded. Read the latest chapters, stay tuned
