Chapter 189 Huai Sheng (5)
"She, is she the girl you like?"
"No, there isn't." Chen Huaisheng shook his head: "Xiaosheng has known that he has a marriage contract since he was sensible, and he has never done anything that violates the marriage contract. This girl outside, don't say that she likes it, but if you look at it twice, you will feel that it is too much. ”
"This is strange, could it be that this girl is the mother of the child's previous life?"
"Last life?" Chen Huaisheng still shook his head: "Xiaosheng has never understood it in his life, how dare he think about the things of his previous life." ”
"I don't dare to think that it doesn't mean that there is none, maybe the son made an appointment with the lady in the last life, and I will see you in this life. Who knows that the son has not yet been born and the Li family girl has made a marriage contract, and your lady is sad, so every night like a dream reminds you, don't forget the old covenant in your previous life. ”
"If it is really as the shopkeeper said, the scene of Xiaosheng and the girl marrying should not be like that. Xiao Sheng felt that he and the girl were both forced, and they were not happy with each other. ”
"That's weird." Xing Ruyi tapped the desktop: "Childe is a painter, so I don't know if you have ever painted a picture of a beauty?" ”
"Beauty?" At the mention of the word beauty, Chen Huaisheng's expression became unnatural.
He has painted beauties, and he has painted a lot of beauties, but those beauties are all sold to Boss Qiu.
"Draw...... Painted. ”
"Chen Gongzi might as well think about it carefully and see if the girl who appeared in the dream is the girl written by Chen Gongzi."
"This ...... I'm afraid I can't. Xiaosheng didn't dare to deceive the shopkeeper, Xiaosheng did draw a lot of beautiful pictures at the request of others, but this beauty is in the picture, how can I run to my dream. Besides, Xiao Sheng never had any unbearable thoughts when he was painting. ”
"Let me tell Chen Gongzi a story related to the beauty in the painting." Xing Ruyi fell his gaze on the picture of a beautiful woman hanging in the shop.
"Many years ago, there was a son surnamed Wei. This son is not only young and promising, but also very handsome and good-looking, and many girls in the town want to marry him, but he doesn't look down on any of them. Seeing that people of his age had become children's fathers, Wei Gongzi's mother became anxious, and even forced Wei Gongzi to choose one of the unmarried girls in the town.
This Wei Gongzi was not willing to marry a girl he didn't like, and he didn't dare to disobey his mother, so he wandered around the street all day long. On this day, he came to a small shop in the middle of nowhere. That small shop sells calligraphy, calligraphy and paintings. ”
"Then Gongzi Wei has fallen in love with a picture of a beauty?"
"Yes, then Wei Gongzi fell in love with a beautiful picture. The beauty in the painting is also dressed as a bride, wearing a phoenix crown, a xia veil, and an almost transparent red hijab on her head. Although it is transparent, the mandarin duck on the red hijab is lifelike. The bride's wedding dress covers the top of her feet, revealing the toe of a red embroidered shoe with a beautiful pattern embroidered on the toe. She folded her hands in front of her, shy and timid, as if waiting for the bridegroom to appear and marry her home. ”
"Then Wei Gongzi bought that beauty picture?"
"Yes, that Wei Gongzi stared at the bride in the painting for a long time, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that he liked it. Not only do I like this painting, but I also like the bride in this painting. Although the red hijab covers her face, because the painter painted the red hijab very thinly, there is a looming mystery. Through the thin red hijab, Wei Gongzi seemed to be able to see the bride's petite face, the small cherry mouth that was not dotted red, and the shy and timid, but faintly revealing a little charming. ”
"I'm afraid this painting is weird." Chen Huaisheng said contemplatively.
"This painting is indeed strange, when Wei Gongzi proposed to the shopkeeper to buy the painting, the shopkeeper almost couldn't wait to agree, and even took the initiative to give him a special price. Perhaps out of conscience, before Wei Gongzi left, the shopkeeper specially said to him, asking him not to hang the picture of that beauty on his bedside. ”
"I'm afraid this Wei Gongzi won't listen." Chen Huaisheng showed a look of regret.
Indeed, this Wei Gongzi did not take the parting words of the shopkeeper to heart. When he got home, he didn't hesitate to hang the painting on his bedside. As night fell, drowsiness set in, and when he was half awake and half asleep, he heard the sound of music.
When he opened his eyes, Wei Gongzi found himself riding on a horse, and a flower made of red satin was tied to the horse's head. He looked down in confusion and saw that he was wearing a red groom's dress, and on his chest hung a flower made of satin, which looked a little ugly. ”
"Is Wei Gongzi marrying in a dream?"
"Yes, he married in his dream, and he married the bride in the painting."
"So, what happened to this Wei Gongzi in the end?"
"I don't know, the person who told me the story of this man didn't tell me the ending, but I guess it shouldn't be good. It is highly likely that the Wei Gongzi married the bride in the painting and was forced to stay in the painting. As for why the shopkeeper of the small shop looked nervous, it was probably because he had the same experience as Wei Gongzi. It's just that he sold the painting, but Wei Gongzi didn't. ”
"But I didn't draw any pictures of a bride, and I didn't hang a similar picture on the bedside. I don't even know where the bride in my dream came from. Wait, wait, I seem to remember. Chen Huaisheng's face changed suddenly: "I, I seem to remember that I saw that red mole there." ”
"Where?"
"Yongping Township, the home of a classmate of mine." Sweat oozed from Chen Huaisheng's forehead: "But the one I saw was not a living person, but a dead person." ”
"Dead people?" Xing Ruyi asked suspiciously.
"Yes, it's a dead man, it's a dead man." Chen Huaisheng recalled: "It was more than a year ago. That day, I was painting in the shop when my classmate Jiang Ming walked in. He told me that he was going to get married, and that the bride was the person he loved. Knowing that I was in distress, he did not ask me for any expensive gifts, but hoped that I would be present that day and paint a picture of him and the bride. ”
"You're not bad."
"Jiang Ming is a very considerate person."
"You went?"
"I went, and prepared a small gift. Jiang Ming, although he doesn't need me to give gifts, but after all, if I am not satisfied, it seems that I am a little stingy. ”
"But there was an accident?"
"The accident happened before I went." Chen Huaisheng's face became extremely ugly: "I thought I would see a dignified bride, but I didn't expect to see a big red coffin after entering the door." In the big red coffin lay a woman, fair-skinned, slender waist, wearing only a middle garment, and barefoot. ”
"This bride is ......"
"It's the guy my classmate is about to marry." Chen Huaisheng sighed: "The bride's name is Yuwei, and my classmate Jiang Ming grew up together. Yu Weisheng is good-looking, and she is a well-known beauty in their township. Jiang Ming looks ordinary, although he was sent to a private school by his father and mother to study for a few years, he didn't read anything famous. Jiang Ming doesn't like to read, and those who don't understand Buddhism are like those of us who don't understand Buddhism listening to the master's lectures in the Buddhist hall, which is both obscure and incomprehensible, and makes people feel drowsy. But just because reading is not good doesn't mean that people are bad.
Jiang Ming is happy with martial arts, and he wants to serve the country and make meritorious contributions to the border. But he is the only son of the Jiang family, and before he was married and left a son and a half daughter to the Jiang family, his father and mother did not allow him to be a soldier. But if he becomes a parent and has a child, he is reluctant to go.
In addition to Xiwu, Jiang Ming's hands are also very skillful, and when he was studying in a private school, he made a lot of interesting little things. We all feel that if he is willing to study harder, he may become our Datang Luban. He himself liked this, but his father and mother didn't like it, saying that he was not doing his job properly, and wanted him to study hard and seek fame in the future. ”
"Life is more than just being an official."
"That being said, Keshi farmers and businessmen, this man is in the first place. Ordinary people, who don't want their children to be angry, don't want their children to get ahead. Jiang Ming's father and mother are ordinary people, and they are ordinary rural farmers, they have been bullied too much in their lives, so they are counting on Jiang Ming to be able to make a difference and fight for the Jiang family. ”
"This border soldier can also make a living. You also said that this Jiang Ming Xiwu, if he really gets on the battlefield, maybe he will be a general. This is not better than being a petty official. ”
"There are more than 10 million people in the border army, and there are a few who can be generals. Most of them were buried in the shackles, and not even a complete corpse could be found. Jiang Ming himself is not afraid of death, but how can his father and mother be willing to do it. ”
"Let's talk about the bride."
"Yuwei's matter, I also listened to Jiang Ming. This Yuwei girl is the youngest daughter of the village chief's family, and she has an older brother who is married to the daughter of a wealthy local merchant. There is also a sister who married into an official family and became a concubine. Although this rich businessman is only local, and this official family is just a five-grade idle official, but for the villagers, the village chief's family is rich and rich, which is eye-catching.
This Yuwei is a beauty when she lands, and the village chief has high hopes for her, looking forward to her being able to marry a richer family, and maybe she can also help her brother find a half-official position. ”
"I know, this village chief hopes that his daughter can find a powerful family. Even if he is not powerful, at least he is rich. But Yuwei fell in love with Jiang Ming, and Jiang Ming's family was poor and had nothing. ”
"The shopkeeper is right, in the village chief's heart, Jiang Ming's family really has nothing but poverty. In order to let Jiang Ming know the difficulties and retreat, the village chief tossed his parents a lot in the village. Jiang Ming didn't dare to go to the village chief to theorize because he took care of Yu Wei, and in the eyes of Jiang Ming's father, he became a white-eyed wolf as long as Yuwei didn't want his father, and because of the village chief's many difficulties, Jiang Ming's parents also hated Yu Wei, thinking that she was a disaster, a disaster, and a disaster for the Jiang family. ”
"The woman's family is unwilling, and the man's family is not agreeing, Jiang Ming and Yuwei are afraid that they won't be able to get together."
"That's right! At this marriageable age, the village chief chose a family affair for Yu Wei that he thought was not bad, and Jiang Ming's family also wanted to marry Jiang Ming. I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, the two of them chose this marriage on the same day. As a result, Jiang Ming ran away from marriage, and Yuwei committed suicide. Two marriages turned into two tragedies. ”
