After Li Chengjing woke up, she recuperated for more than ten days, and most of her injuries were already healed. And Chen Zui's injuries are still very serious, so he can only stay in the house every day to recuperate, and he can't go out of the door, and he can't step through the second door.

Recalling that when he was in the military academy, Chen Zui was injured in order to save Leng Chuxian, and he felt bored for just a few days, but now in this situation, he can't go out for at least a month, where can he stand it?

So Li Chengjing changed her way every day to accompany Chen Zui to relieve his boredom, or to play chess with him, or to go to the street to get some strange and novel gadgets and come back for his pastime......

As for the things outside, they tacitly didn't say a word, they talked and laughed every day, and they were full of fun, so Chen Zui was not so difficult.

The two play a few games of Go every day, and Chen Zui is not good at playing Go, so he has never won against Li Chengjing. But he was not annoyed, but stimulated his competitive spirit, studied chess hard every day, and asked Li Chengjing for advice and learning, thinking that he must catch up with her.

In the afternoon of this day, Chen drunk and woke up, full of energy, his hands were itching, and the two of them got down again.

Chen Zui chooses sunspots, and Li Chengjing chooses whites. At the beginning, Li Chengjing did not do her best, and when the two sides reached thirty, Chen Zui had already seized the opportunity.

Li Chengjing realized that if he didn't care about it, he would lose to him, so he cheered up his spirit, saw the move, and after several twists and turns, he finally saved the situation, and by the way, he praised Chen Zui's rapid progress.

Chen Zui praised her for teaching well.

The two of them were humble in their mouths, but they were not polite at all in their hands.

Although the battle was gradually saved by Li Chengjing, Chen Zui was not in a hurry at all, and he was even more riveted to win this game of chess, and Li Chengjing also had the pleasure of meeting her opponent in chess.

After another moment, the battle was leveled, the game was about to reach a white-hot stage, and the spirits of both sides were in the most concentrated state.

With a "pop", the door opened, "Sister Chengjing, there are many people looking for you outside." ”

The two of them were stunned at the same time, and their hands stopped.

Chen Zui guessed that it was the person who picked them up, and chuckled: "I didn't expect them to come so quickly." ”

Li Chengjing walked out of the room, but was stunned by the scene in front of her: five or six young men, each holding a banana leaf, and the steaming heat in the leaves was the fragrance of glutinous rice.

Several people scrambled: "Girl, please take my glutinous rice......"

Li Chengjing was confused, and was about to ask everyone's intentions. Ramingu smiled and walked over, "This is also a custom of ours, when you meet a girl you like, you will give her sticky rice to show your love, and if the woman is willing to accept it, she will express her willingness to go out on a date with the man." ”

"They saw you on the street, they fell in love with you, and they found out that you lived in our house, so they made an appointment to come together."

"Grandma Gu, you guys are really harmonious here, and you can make an appointment to come together about emotional matters. If this was outside, I'm afraid a fight would have started a long time ago. ”

I don't know when Chen Zui stood at the door, looking like he had nothing to do with himself, just watching idle plays.

On the battlefield, Li Chengjing can be invincible, but the situation in front of her makes her helpless.

Seeing Chen Zui come out, Li Chengjing heard an idea, came over and pulled Chen Zui to everyone, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, everyone, I already have a partner, the two of us are childhood sweethearts, and we already have a marriage contract." ”

She was worried that Chen Zui would clarify, so she leaned into the root of his ear and said sharply: "Don't look at the excitement, don't think it's a big deal, help me out of the siege." ”

Chen Zui had no choice but to follow Li Chengjing's meaning and explain to everyone: "Yes, we are already engaged, and people outside don't understand the rules here, so I'm really sorry that you misunderstood." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he began to cough.

Li Chengjing hurriedly echoed and said, "He is not in good health, I will accompany him into the house to rest." The two took the opportunity to get out.

Everyone sighed in disappointment, and someone whispered: "How can such a beautiful girl be matched with a sick seedling, it's a pity......" The words were very dissatisfied, which clearly meant that "a flower is inserted in cow dung." ”

Chen Zui didn't care when he heard it, and only said: "Chengjing, I didn't expect your charm to be really extraordinary." ”

Li Chengjing said angrily: "Don't look like you don't have anything to do with yourself, this matter is all because of you." ”

Chen was puzzled: "Why are you favored because of me?" ”

Li Chengjing said: "If I wasn't afraid that you would be bored, I wouldn't have gone to the street every day to have fun for you." ”

Chen Zui thought about it, "It seems that it is indeed because of me, but your teeth are not dyed red, how do they know that you are unmarried?" ”

"I don't know."

Xiao Zhengling ran in again at this time, and said with an innocent face: "Sister Chengjing, I forgot to tell you, in addition to dyeing your teeth, the pink bag on your waist can only be tied if you are unmarried." ”

Li Chengjing found out that she and Zhengling were both pink belts, and Grandma Gu's was blue. "It's simple, I'll go and ask Grandma Gu for a blue belt in a while."

Zhengling said: "Our family doesn't have it, and this is a symbol of marriage, even if you want to buy it yourself, unless you have a marriage certificate, people won't sell it to you." ”

"Sister Chengjing, don't worry, they all know that you are a couple, and they shouldn't come again."

However, the truth was not what Zhengling thought, a few of them did not come, but in the next few days, intermittently, other people came to the door with sticky rice.

Li Chengjing can't be angry with them, she has to explain patiently every time, it's annoying, especially every time she disturbs Ramingu, which makes her even more unhappy.

Zhengling thought of a solution for her once and for all: there was a marriage meeting in three days, as long as the two of them went out to participate in the assembly hand in hand, everyone would no longer misunderstand, after all, it is condemnable to destroy other people's feelings here.

Chen Li and the others thought about it, and they had no choice but to do so, just as Chen was drunk and lay in the room for a month, it was time to go out and exercise his muscles.

Li Chengjing didn't even dare to go out of the door these days, and the two played chess in the house, during which Chen Zui was fortunate to win two games, and his usual efforts were finally in vain.

On the day of the rally, they were ready to go out early in the morning, and Zhengling repeatedly explained that even if they didn't hug each other, they must hold hands and show that they love each other very much in front of everyone, otherwise it will arouse the suspicion of others.

They tacitly chose to hold hands.

The gathering was held on the edge of a century-old banyan tree not far from the ancestral hall. They believe that the banyan tree is inhabited by a banyan tree god, and the purpose of the gathering is for an unmarried couple to pray to the banyan god that their love will blossom.

Walking on the street, I saw a lot of couples holding hands and hugging each other walking in the same direction, and they followed closely behind the crowd.

These couples are close to each other and have a deep affection. There are also single men holding banana leaves in their hands, hoping to meet the girl they like at the rally, and in either case, they go with hope for the future.

There were only the two of them, holding hands as an illusion for others to see, and between them was an insurmountable wall. There was no warm talk between them, and some were just rambling to ease the embarrassment.

After walking for nearly twenty minutes, they finally came to the hundred-year-old banyan tree, which was much more majestic than they had imagined.

There was a large square table next to it, and all the pink rubber bands and ropes were placed on the square table. Each team of couples chooses a rope on the table and ties it around their wrists. Then they knelt under the banyan tree, bowed their heads, and uttered a pious prayer from their mouths.

Some couples suddenly break their ropes during prayer, some break when they stand up, and then their expressions immediately become very disappointed, and those who do not break are very happy, as if happiness is about to come.

It is not difficult to guess that in their eyes, if the rope is not broken, it should be regarded as asking for a sign for their marriage.

They also chose a rope on the square table, tied it to their hands, and then knelt down. They didn't know how to pray, so they knelt down with the others, and then stood up with the others.

Their ropes were not broken either.

They walked to the square table and untied the rope, and Chen Zui smiled: "It seems that our luck is also good, and we have picked a strong rope." As he spoke, he pulled the rope with both hands, and the rope was pulled longer and longer by him, but there was no sign of breaking, Chen Zui added two more points, and the rope was still continuous.

Suddenly, they noticed that many pairs of eyes were looking at them around them, and there was a lot of discussion. They were careful not to behave inappropriately, why did the crowd do this?

At this time, a kind old man in the crowd came up to them and said, "I am the patriarch of the Hani tribe, Nayero. I heard that there are two guests from the ancient house of Lamin, so it should be you. ”

The two nodded.

Chen Zui asked, "Hello, patriarch, did we do something that we shouldn't do, why do people look at us like this." ”

The patriarch of Nayero smiled: "You have done nothing wrong, and they are not talking about you, but envying you for winning the jackpot." ”

"The grand prize?"

"Every year, there will be a specially made rope in the rally, and no matter how strong you are, it will be difficult to tear it."

"This rope will be given to you, take it back and keep it safe, because every year the selected couple will be blessed by the banyan god and be happy."

"Thank you, Patriarch." They tried their best to show their joy at winning the "jackpot", and they were greeted with applause all around.

The task has been completed, the two hurriedly left, and on the way back, the two were still holding hands, but they had their own hearts, and there was no half-word communication.

When the Lamingu family saw that they had retrieved the rope, they congratulated them vigorously, knowing that they were not a couple.

At night, Li Chengjing looked at the rope repeatedly in the candlelight, thinking about the patriarch's words all the time. I thought to myself, "Is this just luck?" Or is it another hint from God to them. But how could it be possible between them, not to mention the burden on his shoulders, even if he was willing to let go of everything now, but she knew that Chen Zui no longer loved her, and his heart had gone with Chu Xian......"

Thinking about it, I couldn't help but be stunned, and when I was careless, the rope slipped out, and I was about to touch the candlelight.

Li Chengjing said "ah", and reached out to grab the rope. At this moment, a breeze blew in from the window, blowing the rope off, avoiding the candlelight, and falling to the ground.

Li Chengjing hurriedly picked up the rope, looked through it, it was intact, ecstatic, and grabbed it in the palm of her hand, as if she had picked up a lost treasure.
