Chapter 159: Jing Lixin got married
On the day when the Xie family and his wife were exiled, some people were happy and some were worried.
The ones who are sad are naturally the remaining people of the Xie family now: when they went to the city gate to bid farewell to the big house, they found that they couldn't even get the money for those escort errands! I could only watch the two of them drive out of the city as if they were being driven out of the city, looking back on the past, I don't know how they got to this point over the years!
And the joy is naturally Jing Lixin: this day is also a big day for Jing Lixin to get married!
She married the daughter of a fourth-grade official in Beijing, named Leng Hongdong. It is said that when Jing Lixin went to Beijing to report on his work, he was taken by the eldest lady at a glance. then retreated from the marriage that her parents had originally set for her, and came to Nanzhou City alone.
After all, she is the daughter of an official family with a head and a face, although the Leng family also thinks that Leng Hongdong's behavior is too much. But in the end, if you want to protect the reputation of the Leng family, you can only let her marry Jing Lixin, who is still a little Zhonglang in Nanzhou City.
Chu Yue guessed that Jing Lixin must have benefited from this marriage: at least, there were rumors in Nanzhou City that Jing Lixin would soon be promoted and transferred to the capital.
Today's Jing Lixin was originally living in the city guard mansion because of his official position as a Zhonglang.
But when Chu Yue and Xie Siyun arrived at the City Guard Mansion, they found that the down payment passed to you was a lantern, and the red lantern was hung high, as if it was not just a Zhonglang under the hands of the City Guard, but the eldest son of the City Guard.
Jing Lixin wore a bright red wedding robe today, wearing a red Ling high hat, and a long red belt on his chest, tied with a big red flower, which made his whole person soar. It's not at all like the cautious in the past, and it's always a little hunched back.
Today, he seems to be the protagonist of this world, holding his head high.
From a distance, he saw Chu Yue and Xie Siyun coming, he was still standing on the steps, and he was also anxious to greet Chu Yue and Xie Siyun in person at the bottom of the steps: "You are here?" Hurry up and get in! It's a good day for me, I don't have many friends, I'm really glad you guys are here! β
They had already said it, because Leng Hongdong came here to marry Jing Lixin privately after all, so in fact, she didn't have any family around her.
Jing Lixin meant that if Chu Yue was willing, she could go to the backyard to talk to Leng Hongdong. Let Leng Hongdong not feel too lonely here alone, and at the same time, with the company of Chuyue, she can also eliminate her nervousness a little.
So the two of them chatted in front, and after the first moon gave the congratulatory gift to the person who received the gift at the door, he was taken to the backyard by the maid of the city guard's mansion.
As a Zhonglang, Jing Lixin's original residence was in the side wing.
But after all, Jing Lixin married the daughter of the fourth rank of the dynasty, so Lord Cheng Shou actually vacated his and his wife's house and made a wedding room for Jing Lixin.
At this moment, the outside of the room was already full of festive red, guarding a few maids, seeing that the first moon was coming, and after recognizing the identity of the first moon, he put the first moon into the house.
On the bed in the room, a woman in a red wedding robe was making.
Her hijab was put aside, and at this moment Chu Yue could clearly see her appearance: just looking at her slender figure, she didn't look tall.
Wearing a bright red wedding robe embroidered with phoenix peonies, he sat there a little stiffly, watching the first moon enter the door, stunned.
Her appearance is a glamorous type, Danfeng's eyes are hooked upward, and a flower is dotted at the corner of her eye.
It's just that today's restraint and nervousness have weakened her charm a little. But it's not a clichΓ©, the small cherry lips are tightly pursed, although it is charming and gorgeous, but it always maintains the appearance of everyone's ladies, as if the whole body is bound by the word "rules".
Seeing Chu Yue enter the door, she also stood up, not knowing whether to step forward.
Chu Yue was casual, took a step forward, shook her hand and said with a smile: "Okay, I'm here to be my mother's family!" You don't have so many rules. β
Sitting across from her with a smile, Hatsuki introduced herself, "My name is Hatsuki." Jing Lixin should have told you about me, right? This is the first time we've met today, but there are plenty of opportunities to meet in the future, so don't be so restrained. β
Leng Hongdong actually had concerns about Chu Yue before, but after all, she was in a foreign land, and it was rare for Chu Yue to be so enthusiastic about herself, so she also bowed her head and smiled: "I know, he said that you are his childhood sweetheart." Now I am the wife of the Xie family, and I am Leng Hongdong. My father was a squire of the Ministry of Rites and came from Kyoto. β
Is this how women in Kyoto introduce themselves?
When Chu Yue was still a little stunned, Leng Hongdong blushed and looked at Chu Yue's flat lower abdomen: "He told me, are you pregnant?" Thank you for your hard work with me, I have prepared something for you! β
As he spoke, he asked the maid beside him to take out a red box and put it on Chu Yue's hand: "I know that you have seen all good things, but this little care, I hope you don't dislike it." Jing Lixin said to me...... The woman he loves most in his life is always you, and if I want to get along with you, I want to get along with him, right? β
Blah blah blah, what kind of theory is this?!
So Jing Lixin actually told his wife so directly that he had a childhood sweetheart he loved deeply?! And his wife, Leng Hongdong, so easily combined the fact that her husband loved another woman in her heart, and she could still live in peace with herself?!
Although it seems that there are a lot of such things in this world, Chu Yue still feels that his three views seem to be a little broken.
Instinctively, she protected her lower abdomen and stepped back a little.
And Leng Hongdong came from Kyoto in the end, so naturally he also saw Chu Yue's actions, and just smiled slightly: "Don't worry, I won't hurt you." I love him, and I know that your life is also happy, and I know that there will never be a possibility between you. So I won't hurt you, because to hurt you is to hurt her. β
She took the initiative to stretch out her hand and squeezed Chu Yue's hand with a smile: "I also believe that he has mine in his heart." Otherwise, I wouldn't have traveled thousands of miles to get here, would I? Don't be afraid, first moon. I just want to say to you, I want to be friends with you. β
She loves Jing Lixin very much, right?
Chu Yue suddenly felt that she was not worth it!
Jing Lixin is now beautiful, but Chu Yue always faintly feels in his heart that he has discarded his principles and bottom line like this, even if they are childhood sweethearts, Chu Yue hopes that he will be good, but he can't really be good for a long time.
So looking at such a cold red winter, Chu Yue's heart was a little unbearable: "You...... Love him so much? β
"Yes."
Leng Hongdong took a deep breath, and in this foreign land, he regarded Chuyue as his closest person: "Yes. The first time I saw him, he came to see my father. You don't know, do you? At that time, he had not yet conducted scientific research, and his poor appearance was not as good as that of my family. But when I visited my father, he answered fluently, although he felt a little nerdy, but the light in his eyes, I will never forget in my life. β
Leng Hongdong sighed lightly: "Then I begged my father to help him." My father said that as long as he could go to high school, he would take this man under his wing. Sure enough, he didn't live up to my father's and my father's expectations. On that day in high school, you don't even know how glorious he was. I feel like I've identified him in my life, and I've never seen a man like him again. β
Leng Hongdong's eyes were red, thinking that in this relationship, she also suffered a lot of grievances: "But the first time I showed my heart to him, he told me that he had a deep love in his heart. The moment he said your name, I knew that he was a long-term lover. β
Raising his eyes so that the tears don't fall so quickly, Leng Hongdong seems to want to tell Chu Yue all his grievances today: "Chu Yue, can you help me?" I want to go into his heart, can you help me? β
A woman who loves so humbly.
Has she forgotten that she was also the pearl in the palm of her parents' hands?
Chu Yue didn't know how to face such a cold red winter, so she might only nod: "I...... I don't dare to say I can help you. But whatever you think you need to ask me or what you want me to do for you, I'll do my best. It's just that...... One thing, I hope you can persuade him by Jing Lixin's side. There are things that can be done and some things that can't be done. He is now ...... has deviated from the right track, and it looks like glory, but there will always be a hopeless day to turn over. β
Leng Hongdong immediately understood the meaning of the first moon, the tears in his eyes gradually faded, and all that was left was a sigh: "I...... Know. There are many things that his father asked him to do, and he has no other way. And in such a world, if he only relies on his own little knowledge, I am afraid that two hundred years will not be enough to get to today's position. β
"But I'll persuade her."
Leng Hongdong raised his eyes and looked at Chuyue as if he had grasped a life-saving straw: "But Chuyue, we are going to Kyoto." I'm afraid that if you're not around him, he'll not get used to it. Hatsuki, I heard that you're going to Kyoto too, right? β
Indeed, after discussing with Xie Siyun, she felt that it was time to do business and go to Kyoto.
And what Leng Hongdong said next made Chu Yue feel shocked: "Chu Yue, do you know. Kyoto's No. 1 merchant once came here, and he lost to you, right?! He once said that if you want to go to Kyoto one day, he will be your biggest rival, right? β
Yes.
Hatsuki remembered that it was what happened when she first came to this world.
That man almost killed Mr. Yin, but in the end, Xie An won the game and escaped.
It was only later that I heard that their family had been exiled for violating the emperor's authority.
