Season 2 Chapter 5 Qingfeng Mansion Recruits Son-in-law (Part II)
Ask the world, what is love?
Teach life and death to make a promise!
The south and the north of the world,
The old wings have been cold and hot several times.
◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆◆
The third lady of Liuyuan's foreign family is going to throw hydrangeas to recruit relatives when she is the chief today! This news has spread all over the world as early as the beginning of this year.
These three ladies are not only beautiful as flowers, but also have both ability and political integrity, and there is a joke in the rivers and lakes that everyone knows: no matter how old or young, all single men want to marry her, and all married men want to accept her as a concubine.
The sound of suona wafted in every corner of Qingfeng Building, and the servants and maidservants were busy inside and outside the house.
Although the young man in white had already arranged it in advance, what surprised him was that in front of Qingfeng Tower, many people came one after another, and after a while, it was already black.
In the dense crowd were women and children, naughty children, and gray-haired old men. Looking down from the second floor, I couldn't see their bodies, only the dense crowd of human faces, and a little farther away, I couldn't even see the human faces.
Liu Yuanwai frowned, seeing his daughter peeking in the room at a loss, he couldn't help but ask, "Daughter, can you see that he is coming?"
Liu Shiyan frowned, shook her head slightly, and said nothing.
"Don't worry, if he's genuine, I think he'll come. If he's just playing a joke on you, you don't have to take it seriously. ”
Liu Shiyan bit her lip lightly, was silent for a long time, looked at the large black crowd downstairs, and said, "Daddy, he said that he would come immediately after eating a bowl of noodles, and his daughter believed him." ”
"Maybe he just played a joke on you?"
"He won't. ”
"Maybe he already has a wife, and originally wanted to take you as a concubine, but the family didn't agree?"
"Daddy, my daughter believes he won't lie to me. ”
"My good daughter, you don't know the insidiousness of the outside world when you don't go outside, many of them look glamorous on the surface, but in fact they are doing shady things behind their backs. You've known each other for less than an hour, so how can you trust him so much?"
"Don't hide it from my father, Fang Guanren said that he had seen the slave family, and he could also know the red mole on my elbow. Are you strange?"
"I'm afraid you were accidentally seen by him, right? You have been reading, writing, reciting poems and playing the piano at home since you were a child, and you don't go out of the door, how did he get acquainted with you? I guess he said this deliberately when he saw your beauty. ”
The maid Xiaolan smiled and said: "The slave maid saw that the third lady and the official were talking very happily, have you seen this scholar?"
Liu Shiyan thought for a while and said, "Hmm...... I can't say it, anyway, when I see him, I feel amazing and down-to-earth. ”
The maid Xiaolan smiled: "Isn't it that the third lady has met him in a dream since he was a child? ”
Liu Shiyan said angrily: "Hugh wants to talk nonsense. ”
"Daughter, hurry up and prepare, it's time to play. ”
"Daddy, wait, he hasn't come yet......"
Liu Shiyan anxiously looked out the window, there were more and more people, shouting, frolicking, cheering, old people, women and children, children, but they couldn't find that familiar face.
Where are you? Why haven't you come yet? Officials know that if you miss it now, you will never be able to do it again in this life.
Liu Yuan shook his head and slowly paced to the attic. Seeing Liu Yuanwai, the men in the audience suddenly shouted.
The hour had passed, and the bustling crowd downstairs had begun to be restless, and some of the young and vigorous had even begun to curse.
To put it in my heart, throwing hydrangea to recruit a son-in-law is a last resort, and the ferocity of Jin Bing is terrifying, and everywhere he goes, he is like a jackal hungry tiger.
Now Bianliang is in danger, and the Jin soldiers may attack the city again at any time. Once they break through Bianliang......
He didn't dare to think about it anymore, it was terrible.
Therefore, for the sake of today, we must marry off our daughter as soon as possible. Perhaps, a woman who marries a woman, they will let go of a horse.
But at the same time, he can't treat his daughter too badly. If the other party is handsome and chic, he is naturally good, at least, he can't find a timid and cowardly person, otherwise he will only let his daughter fall into another abyss.
Thinking of this, he decided to change his plan and whispered to the butler for a while.
The butler nodded, then walked straight to the attic and waved his hand to signal everyone below to be quiet.
"Ladies downstairs, Liu Shiyan, the third lady of Liuyuan's family, is about to start throwing hydrangea to recruit relatives. Next, let's first invite Liu Yuanwai. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a hearty laugh coming from the back room.
"I've seen the master. The butler hurriedly stepped aside.
Liu Yuan shook his fan outside, swayed to the attic, only to see him full of spring breeze, speaking like a bell: "Fathers and fellow villagers, my little daughter has reached the age of marriage, today is here to throw hydrangea to recruit sons-in-law, but also invite all the fiancés downstairs, enthusiastically come forward!"
With that, he laughed and turned to leave.
"Congratulations, sir. ”
The housekeeper made a gesture, then stood in the center of the attic and said, "Everyone, the third lady of my family is eighteen years old and is about to be married. The birth is a beautiful moon and a shy flower, sinking fish and geese and falling geese and captivating the country and the city, come, respectfully invite the three ladies!"
With the support of the two maids, a woman wearing a wedding dress embroidered with gold patterns on a red background, wearing a phoenix crown and a xia veil, covered a red turban in front of her, and walked to the attic with lotus steps.
It is said that the three ladies of Liu Yuan's family are as beautiful as flowers, but when they came out, they were covered with a red turban, so that people couldn't see her face clearly, and they looked sideways.
The red scarf moved slightly, and a face as delicate as a flower suddenly stunned everyone. Then, he covered it again, turned around and left shyly.
Finally seeing her demeanor, the unmarried sons downstairs were amazed, pushing and crowding forward, as if whoever could squeeze to the front would have the most advantage.
I only heard the housekeeper shouting: "Everyone must have seen it just now, the three ladies of my family not only have the appearance of captivating the country and the city, but also have the virtue of raising the case and raising eyebrows." Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, proficient in everything, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the fiancé downstairs. Please step forward, unwécés, let's start throwing hydrangeas right away!"
"Invite the third lady again!"
The fiancés downstairs were suddenly excited, but the servants were busy at this time, handing each of them a pair of four treasures of the study.
What is this for?
Liu Shiyan gently walked up to the housekeeper with the support of the two maids and handed a piece of red silk to the housekeeper.
The housekeeper nodded, and shouted downstairs: "The third lady of my family is both talented and beautiful, so her husband must also know how to be knowledgeable." There is a link here: the three lives on the stone swear three lives, the sound is the oath, and the life is the world. If you can match the son, please write your lower link and attach your name at the bottom. ”
This throwing hydrangea still has to be couplet? It's really a strange story!
But it's no wonder, who made her the third lady outside Liuyuan. But this link can be really wonderful, all of a sudden, the fiancés who can't answer quit a third.
This second question: parting and re-sending the word, there is an oath in the word. On July 7, Qingfeng Building, when the hydrangea beckoned relatives to whisper. There is an oath in this word, and what kind of oath is it talking about?"
The answers are bizarre, and some are even ridiculous. After being confirmed and screened by the housekeeper one by one, another third of the fiancés withdrew from the competition.
Don't underestimate the remaining third, the maid Xiaolan roughly counted, at least 40 people.
Although there are still many people, at least Liu Shiyan is given enough time to identify them.
But what disappointed him was that Fang Yu still hadn't seen any trace of him.
Wasn't what he just said true?
Did I really believe him wrong?
At this time, the housekeeper came over and whispered a reminder that the two questions had been completed, and it was time to throw the hydrangea.
Liu Shiyan walked to the attic sullenly, holding the red hydrangea in her hand with the support of the maid, and suddenly walked to the east, and a maid pointed with her finger, indicating that her son looked good.
She shook her head slightly and walked to the west side of the attic.
The maid on the west side had been observing the crowd for a long time, and she also pointed with her finger.
She still shook her head, the person she missed had not yet appeared, and a deep sense of loss welled up in her heart.
Why didn't he come?
said it so affectionately, it turned out to be empty.
In the blink of an eye, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the young man in white and smiled at her.
It's so nasty to laugh!
Why do you think there's something hidden in his smile?
Could it be that he secretly sent someone to find trouble with Fang Guanren?
So can this hydrangea be thrown today?
Raising his eyes to look at his father, Liu Yuanwai's face was solemn, and he motioned for her to hurry up.
She slowly stood up in despair, the hydrangea trembling slightly in her palm.
At this time, the light hydrangea seemed to be unusually heavy in her hand.
He still didn't come.
Perhaps, it is really fate to be inseparable from him.
She closed her eyes and held the hydrangea aloft, ready to throw it down. At this time, the maid Xiaolan suddenly screamed in surprise in her ear: "Third lady, is that him?"
Liu Shiyan looked at it and saw that Fang Yu was working hard to push away the crowd, his hair was very messy, and his clothes were torn, as if he was experiencing a battle just now.
When her gaze fell on his arm, she went from surprise to worry in an instant. Although he wrapped it tightly in strips of rags, blood still seeped through it.
Where did this thug come from? I actually want to join in the fun!
Who knows if it's chicken blood or duck blood on him? He must have deliberately dressed up like this to avoid the two questions just now. Today is Liu Yuan's foreign business, and he must come out to administer justice.
As a result, all the spearheads were pointed at Liu Yuanwai.
Liu Yuanwai was right to think about it, and forgot to throw out a question: "If this unmarried son also wants to participate in throwing hydrangea to recruit a son-in-law, please answer a question from the old man." ”
"Please speak. ”
"Please make a poem in the name of the little girl. If you can do it, you can participate, if not, you can only quit. ”
Fang Yu thought about it for a while, and proposed to ask for the four treasures of the study, but Liu Yuanwai deliberately made it difficult, so he said that there was no more, and they had all been distributed.
"Daddy!"
"Don't talk too much!" Liu Yuanwai scolded softly.
I only heard Fang Yu downstairs shouting loudly: "Lady, today, I won't marry you!"
With that, he tore open his injured arm, and without restraint, blood gushed out.
In his right hand, he dipped a rag in blood on the wound, using the earth as paper, and the bright red characters were shocking.
The red tree hugged Liu Shiyan,
Bihezhu Lian looks side by side.
The king of the blessed world occupies it,
The mandarin duck cultivated to the proud immortal.
Married for a hundred years,
Let harmony be more strong.
Good and good and endless blessings,
Before starting a family and starting a business.
"Good poetry!" Liu Yuanwai nodded with a smile.
"Xiaolan, you hurry down and find a doctor first. ”
"Yes, Sanlazi. ”
Standing in front of the attic, Liu Shiyan is like a delicate flower, surprisingly beautiful.
Suddenly, she showed a happy smile at Fang Yu.
He put the hydrangea on his chest and threw it at the position where Fang Yu was standing.
There was an uproar in the crowd.
You push and shove, crowd each other, and no one will let you.
The young man in white had been secretly waiting for a long time, and suddenly jumped!
Although he was surprised by Fang Yu's appearance, he was injured and his movement was bound to be hindered.
Seeing this, Fang Yu jumped up from the crowd desperately, but it was obviously a step slower than him.
Seeing that the young man in white was about to grab the hydrangea, in a hurry, Fang Yu suddenly grabbed one of his feet, roared, and threw him to the ground hard.
With a "bang" sound, the young man in white spurted out a mouthful of blood, fell to the ground and kept twitching, and fell out of his arms with a waist card, on which seemed to be engraved a person's name.
Wanyan Zongzi.
He's a golden man!?
I don't know who shouted such a sentence, and the crowd suddenly exploded.
For Fang Yu, it didn't matter at all whether the person lying on the ground was a golden person or not.
Reaching out to take it, he tightly took the hydrangea into his arms.
The sound of suona sounded happily again, and the servant invited Fang Yu to the attic, and at this time, the maid Xiaolan also invited the doctor over. After a brief treatment of the wound, he changed into the groom's attire.
I only heard Liu Yuan say in front of the attic: "It's really a happy event and the spirit is refreshing." Although I think that although I have a lot of money, it is in vain to have no children under my knees. Now, the little girl has found a wishful husband, and finally fulfilled my wish. ”
The housekeeper said, "Congratulations to the master, congratulations to the master." ”
"Butler, how are the newcomers preparing?"
"Master Qiqi, the newcomer is ready. After that, the housekeeper made an invitation, "There is a bride and groom invited!"
Fang Yu walked slowly to the attic and politely bowed: "Son-in-law to meet my father-in-law." ”
Liu Yuan shook his fan outside, and his expression was a little solemn: "The fast son-in-law is now happy to ride the dragon, and he will show his flowers with heavy makeup, and he will celebrate Lin'er next year, and the happy husband and wife will be happy." ”
"Thank you, father-in-law. ”
"No thanks. ”
Looking out the window, a pair of swallows chirped happily on the eaves, as if they were also congratulating the couple.
Liu Yuanwai had an idea and said, "Can you just make a poem with this pair of swallows?"
Isn't it just a pair of swallows? I'll let you do it! Someone downstairs picked up the stone and threw it at it, impartially, and hit one of the swallows.
Seeing the death of its companion, the other swallow wailed, hovered above for a long time, and did not want to leave, and suddenly swooped down to the ground, slamming its head on the ground.
"This is a bad omen!"
Just when everyone downstairs was talking, Fang Yu shouted: "This pair of swallows is a male and a female, and they are husband and wife. One died, and the other did not want to live alone. Their feelings are touching. The son-in-law used this story as the title to make a poem. ”
Liu Yuanwai bowed slightly. Fang Yu gently pulled up Liu Shiyan's jade hand and recited affectionately:
Ask the world, what is love, and teach life and death.
There are double flyers in the south and the north, and the old wings have been cold and hot several times.
Happy and fun, parting bitter, there are even more crazy children.
You should have a word.
Stratus clouds, thousands of mountains and twilight snow, only the shadow is for whom.
Hengfen Road, lonely when the drums, the smoke is still flat.
The spirits are a little more groaning, and the mountain ghosts cry out for themselves.
The sky is also jealous, and the warblers and swallows are all loess.
Through the ages, in order to stay for the people, they sang and drank wildly, and visited the breeze.
This is a poem by Yuan Haoqing. It's just that at this time, this great poet doesn't seem to have been born yet, so I have to be sorry, so I should think that I did it myself.
"Okay! What a direct promise of life and death!" Liu Yuanwai looked up to the sky and laughed.
The housekeeper knew the master's thoughts, and he was quite satisfied with his fast son-in-law.
So he announced in public: "Our ceremony begins, and the bride and groom are married." ”
"Worship heaven and earth!"
"Second worship high hall!"
"Husband and wife worship each other!"
"Thank you, relatives and friends!"
"Send to the cave!"
As the bride and groom happily walked towards the new house, the fiancés downstairs were envious, jealous and hateful.
Other than that, they could only sigh one after another.
