Chapter 34: Living Up to Lovesickness (3)

The wedding ceremony of the two Han Dynasty inherited the Zhou rites, and they got married at dusk. Early in the morning, Zhou Yu bathed and changed clothes according to Zhou Li, he was dressed in a Xuanduan suit, with a sleeve span of three feet three, a closed mouth of one foot eight, a silk dress, and a white silk single coat, full of indescribable grace.

Born in troubled times, even the wedding ceremony was a bit hasty, and Zhou Shang and his wife were not brought here, and there was no one to perform the Jiaozi ceremony, but Zhou Yu still set up a seat to worship his father for the sake of etiquette, and after pouring a drink alone, he went out with the ceremony.

The sunset is slanting westward, the mountains and rivers of Anhui are all wrapped in a piece of gold, this small city that has given birth to the legend of love through the ages "Peacock Flying Southeast" is particularly warm and affectionate today because of the wedding ceremony of a pair of beautiful people. The people of the whole city flocked to the courtyard of Qiao's house, and thousands of people were empty, watching from the road, and the water blocked by the Baizhang small road was blocked. If you count the world's romantic talents, who doesn't know Jiang Zuo Zhoulang; Let's talk about the beauties who are famous all over the world, who doesn't know Wancheng Erqiao? Now that Sun Ce has accepted Da Qiao, and promised Xiao Qiao to Zhou Gongjin, who is a brother, Rao is this good story is enough to resound in Huaxia Shenzhou, how can the people of Wancheng miss such an opportunity and not come to take a look?

A feast has been set up outside the Qiao family's old house, and several distant uncles of Qiao and Xiao Qiao are outside the door to greet the new son-in-law. When the auspicious time came, Zhou Yu came by car, only to see that he was eight feet tall, with an extraordinary bearing, a handsome face, both Confucian and elegant, and a military general, he walked out of the car, took the wild goose in the hands of the ceremonial officer, and a few people saluted, and then took the thin wine and drank it all, and then finally was able to log in to the main hall.

Da Qiao, Sun Ce and several aunts were waiting in the hall, and Zhou Yu greeted a few more people, and everyone sighed that Xiao Qiao had a good husband. Zhou Yu took the wine cup handed by the patriarch of the clan, and only then did he raise his head and drink it all, and saw Xiao Qiao coming from the back hall surrounded by a group of mothers-in-law.

She is wearing a colorful heavy dress made by Da Qiao himself, and she has never applied the first makeup of a beauty on her little face, which is as magnificent as a peach in three springs, pure and elegant, hibiscus is not as good, and the ice muscle and jade bones are hidden in the brocade, only a little bit of Hao wrist is exposed, and the snow is frosty.

Zhou Yu once thought that Xiao Qiao must be beautiful in a wedding dress, but he never thought that he would be so beautiful that he lost his mind. When others saw Zhou Yu looking at Xiao Qiao in a daze, they all hid their mouths and snickered, but Sun Ce fully understood, gently hugged Da Qiao, and said in a low voice: "Gong Jin will no longer have a position to laugh at me in the future." ”

Seeing the time when the bride went out, under the reminder of the ceremonial officer, Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao stepped forward together to say goodbye to Sun Ce and Da Qiao. Da Qiao endured it a lot, but he still couldn't stop choking, which made Xiao Qiao cry a lot, and finally went out.

Outside the door, the lively people gathered more and more, and when they saw Xiao Qiao's appearance, everyone let out a burst of sighs. Zhou Yu helped Xiao Qiao get into the carriage, and drove around three times according to the etiquette system, and then asked the coachman to come forward to drive, and he took the car one step ahead and waited at the gate of the house.

Da Qiao is not suitable to go out, Sun Ce is both the groom's relatives and the bride's brother-in-law, so he naturally wants to go to eat and drink, but he is not worried about Da Qiao, and after arranging for her to eat and rest, he went to congratulate everyone with him.

Zhou Yu stood tall and jade, and invited all relatives and friends to sit down in front of the door. When Xiao Qiao arrived in the carriage, Zhou Yu stepped forward to greet him, and the couple greeted each other again, and then walked into the main hall together, and sat down in the main hall in the direction of the male west and the female east.

At night, the walls of the inner and outer courtyards of the house are hung with hexagonal red lanterns, reflecting seven or eight stars outside the mountain, which is particularly warm and romantic.

From the cardamom years, the beginning of love, Xiao Qiao has always admired Zhou Yu, and also fantasized that one day she would marry him as his wife, when all this really happened, she couldn't believe it, but the person who was doing the right gift with her in front of her was indeed the person she was thinking about, Xiao Qiao couldn't help but cry suddenly, and fell into the wine.

Zhou Yu was also angry in his heart, and said in a low voice: "This life has made you wait for a long time, and I will wait for you in the next life, and we will never be separated......"

Xiao Qiao's tears were even more urgent, but the corners of his mouth were curved, and the guests couldn't stop coaxing when they saw the two of them whispering.

After all the ceremonies were completed, the maids and maids hugged Xiao Qiao to the backyard wing, and Zhou Yu stayed behind the banquet guests. Sun Ce sat at the head of the seat, looking very interested, and Zhou Yu raised his cup to drink, and said with a low smile: "Ying'er and sister-in-law, the two peerless beauties, are displaced in the troubled times, which is really pitiful, but you and I are the sons-in-law, and it can be regarded as living up to it." ”

Zhou Yu understood how much Sun Ce's words contained, drank the bottle of wine in the cup, and arched his hand: "Thank you, Lord Yucheng." ”

Sun Ce patted Zhou Yu on the back and drank all the wine in the cup. Lu Meng, Jiang Qin and others saw that Sun Ce had finished drinking, and Zhou Yu was very interested, so they no longer disregarded their humility, and they all came up to pull Zhou Yu to toast, and the guests and hosts were happy, so lively.

In the backyard room, Xiao Qiao sat alone on the couch, his heart beating suddenly, like a deer crashing. When she first met him in Tangshan a few years ago, she saw him at a glance, when he was a handsome and uninhibited teenager, but she was a tomboy who could only fly stones. Now that many years have passed, he has become a hero and hero all over the world, and she has just grown into a beautiful woman in the country, I thought that no matter how deep her love is, it will be difficult to enter his heart, and I never thought that there would be a peak and a turn to tie the knot.

On the bookcase in the room, Zhou Yu's lyre was placed, and Xiao Qiao got up and stepped forward, gently plucking the strings, and his heartstrings trembled.

His harp, his bow, his scrolls, her embroidered baskets, her dowry, her flowers, and objects intersect, seemingly inconsistent, but neatly placed in one place, as if his life and hers were intertwined and never to be separated.

Xiao Qiao was thinking shyly, when she suddenly heard a sound of footsteps outside the door, she couldn't care about her own thoughts, and hurriedly got up and ran back to the couch to sit down, her heart was beating suddenly, as if she was about to jump out of her throat.

At the same time, a group of people laughed and pushed the door of the wing room open, Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao saw each other again, and then the couple stripped their robes in the outer and inner rooms by the little maid and the mother-in-law respectively.

At this time, the sky was completely dark, and the waiter came out with a high candle, leaving only two long red candles, swaying a room of warmth. It was a cool night in early winter, Xiao Qiao couldn't help but tremble a little, she lowered her little head, not daring to look at Zhou Yu who was walking step by step, she breathed deeply, but she was still full of suffocation, and suddenly, her slender waist was tightly clamped, and the whole person fell into a warm and generous embrace.

Xiao Qiao raised his eyes shyly, only to see Zhou Yu looking at him very gently, he couldn't help but hang his head in shame, and whispered: "I've drunk a lot of wine, do you want to have a bowl of tea?" ”

Zhou Yu seemed to answer Xiao Qiao, and seemed to be talking to himself, and his tone was full of joy: "I'm happy today, so I drank two cups, Wan'er, we finally got married......"

I didn't expect Zhou Yu to be so happy because she married herself, Xiao Qiao raised her hand to wrap around his tight waist tightly, and the fragrance of Lan Gui in her sleeve struck, making Zhou Yu in a trance for a moment, and leaned over to kiss her soft thin lips without saying anything. Xiao Qiao was stunned for a while, and when she came back to her senses, she felt that there was a faint aroma of wine all around, combined with the faint and tranquil breath on his body, which made her seem to sink into a bright lake, floating and sinking, confused and drowning, unable to extricate herself.

Heaven and earth seem to be empty, only the person in his arms, three points more important than all things, the two are entangled in death, only each other's whispering and gasping are left in their ears, Zhou Yu desperately found a trace of reason, and reluctantly let go of Xiao Qiao.

Under the light of the fire, the rouge on her lips was slightly pasty, her eyes were covered with a layer of blurry and charming water, her hair bun was like a jade mountain, and the black hair was scattered on the back of Zhou Yu's hand, which was so cool that it made people's hearts more itchy, Zhou Yu lowered her eyes, intertwined her fingers with Xiao Qiao, and pulled her around the soft couch to the back door of the wing. Xiao Qiao saw the red light of the high candle faintly penetrating into the room through the gauze window, but he didn't know what was outside the door, and looked at him inquiringly.

Zhou Yu smiled warmly and chicly, signaling Xiao Qiao to open the door, she didn't hesitate anymore, gently pushed the door, the west wind rolled the blinds, scattered countless petals, only to see that under the cornice, a garden was planted with a bowl of flowers, red candles shine high, the flowers are blooming, and the fragrance is coming.

Xiao Qiao was both surprised and delighted, and asked puzzledly: "It's already the winter moon, why are there still bowls of flowers?" ”

Zhou Yu did not answer, but led Xiao Qiao along the pine path step by step into the depths of the flowers. Xiao Qiao only felt that the atmosphere here was better than that of the side, and only after looking closely did she realize that there were two hot springs hidden in the flowers and vines, and her little face was also steamed by the heat to become more and more ruddy, Yi Yi leaned on Zhou Yu, raised her little hand around his slender neck, and said with a smile: "Do you remember me saying that I want to see a bowl of flowers......

"I'll remember everything about you."

While talking, the two walked to the end of the flower-paved road, only to see a carved wooden table placed in the flower garden, and an incomparably delicate sky lantern was placed on the table. Xiao Qiao stretched out his slender hand and picked it up, looking left and right: "It's very delicate, it's not like a ...... that can be bought in Wancheng."

"Naturally, you can't buy it, after all, it's for your husband's own hands, and there is only one in the world, just for you."

Xiao Qiao smiled softly and contentedly, and leaned on Zhou Yu's arms with peace of mind: "Why did you make this sky lantern for me?" But I still think, that year outside Shucheng, the rain was so heavy, and my sky lantern was not lit? ”

Zhou Yu stroked Xiao Qiao's slightly cool hair in the evening breeze and muttered, "That's not all...... Wan'er, it is said that the place where the sky lantern flies is where the deceased are, I know that you have been thinking about your father-in-law and mother-in-law in your heart, and put our thoughts on the sky lantern and let it fly away with the wind. ”

The matter of his parents is Xiao Qiao's biggest concern, Zhou Yu has never asked face-to-face, nor has he ever made senseless relief, and Xiao Qiao never expected him to share it with himself, and all these pains and sorrows were suppressed in the bottom of his heart. Unexpectedly, Zhou Yu was so considerate of her heart, and actually made a sky lantern with her own hands, so that she could pass on her happiness and joy to them on the night of her first wedding.

The autumn breeze was bleak, a pair of beautiful people were dressed in silk and white clothes, their sleeves were flying, like immortals, Zhou Yuhuan, this little Qiao, lit the sky lantern and put it on the palm of her hand. Xiao Qiao raised his hands, and with a gentle push of his shallot-like fingertips, the sky lantern slowly rose, flying higher and higher with the wind.

The faint light of the fire reflected Xiao Qiao's delicate face, and tears kept rolling down, but her expression was happy and joyful. Zhou Yu whispered in her ear and asked, "Have you said everything you said for your father-in-law and mother-in-law?" ”

"It's all said...... It's just that I'm embarrassed to say it. ”

"But I want to hear what you're going to do with my father-in-law and mother-in-law."

The sky lantern flew higher and higher, side by side with the stars, and gradually only a faint point of light remained, Xiao Qiao closed his gaze, turned around and said coquettishly: "Zhou Lang, I am so greedy, I want to be with you for the rest of my life......"

"Of course we want to be together forever, and I will always love you as much as my life."

Xiao Qiao raised his little hand and wrote a few strokes in Zhou Yu's heart as if he were playing with Lai: "I have written it down, you are not allowed to play tricks." ”

Zhou Yu smiled and grabbed Xiao Qiao's hand, put it on his lips and kissed it: "What I say, every sentence counts...... A few years ago, I promised you not to suffer from childbirth, and I still count it. Wan'er, if you don't think it's okay, we can sleep in separate rooms, and when you think it's okay, we'll ......."

Xiao Qiao didn't expect Zhou Yu to remember her nonsense many years ago, moved and ashamed, and hesitated not knowing how to answer.

Zhou Yu saw that Xiao Qiao was silent and shy, as if he had other intentions, and asked in a suppressed voice, "What does Madam mean?" ”

Xiao Qiao was speechless, raised his toes, hurriedly kissed Zhou Yu on the cheek, and then buried his little head in his arms with a red face.

The red flew by, the stars looked at each other, Zhou Yu picked up Xiao Qiao by the waist, and looked at each other, but the meteors in the eye waves were more dazzling than the Milky Way. Zhou Yu's words were indescribably cheerful and resolute, and her handsome face rubbed Xiao Qiao's beautiful little face affectionately: "From today on, you are my Zhou Gongjin's real and only woman......"

I don't know when, the north wind crossed, bringing a cloud of snow, everything hid the traces, a pair of beautiful people also relied on each other to return to the room, only the snow flakes were seen in the small courtyard, melted into a pool of hot spring water.

The customs of all things in the world always seem to have thousands of words to describe, but it is difficult to describe this scene, just like a long way from the stars, but it is difficult to match the love and meaning here, lingering and long......
