In the second year of Yong'an, the twenty-first day of the first month.

The palm beads kept yawning, one after the other. But not only did she yawn, but it also affected the people next to her. Grandma Meng and Du Yunying also yawned twice.

Grandma Meng covered her mouth and said, "I heard that yawning is contagious, but I didn't expect it to be true." Zhangzhu, didn't you sleep well last night? ”

Zhangzhu nodded, and Yun Ying immediately agreed: "I didn't sleep well the day before I got married, I tossed and turned in bed all night, my mind was buzzing, and I kept thinking about some messy things in my heart, but in fact, I was more worried." Is Sister Fu the same? ”

Zhangzhu said: "Maybe." Recalling the first month of the ninth year of Yuanjia, she was wearing a red wedding dress as soon as she opened her eyes, and she was a desperate bride who was forced to die, at that time she was confused about the future, and she only knew that she had to live well and enter Beijing alive to avenge the Xie family.

Unexpectedly, five years have passed, and looking back, five years are just a flick of a finger. She also succeeded in boiling herself into a twenty-year-old girl.

The revenge was avenged, but she did not repay the kindness she owed, and from now on she will go hand in hand with him, and she will never be confused in this life.

The bride combed her hair, put on a black silk bun, and added flowers and trees and emerald pieces to it. The special bun was a little heavy, and soon after wearing it, I felt that my neck was pressed a little sore. The bride cleaned up for her, carefully checked the makeup, and finally nodded with satisfaction and said, "The bride is so beautiful." ”

Grandma Meng and Yun Ying also smiled: "It's really good-looking." ”

Zhangzhu stretched out his hand to pick up the pile of yarn flowers lying quietly in the box and inserted them in the sideburns. It was a red camellia, the size of a wine glass, and it bloomed quietly in her hair.

A servant woman hurriedly came to Grandma Meng and said, "Grandma, the second lady in front of you would like to ask you to come over." ”

When Grandma Meng heard this, she gently patted Zhangzhu's shoulder and said, "Sister, don't worry. Then he asked Yun Ying to accompany Zhangzhu well.

Zhangzhu looked at the blurred figure in the bronze mirror, and she seemed to remember the mood when she saw this face for the first time, five years later, this face has long been used to it. The name Xie Ruoyi has become a thing of the past, and she has also completed her mission as Xie Ruoyi, from now on, she only needs to do a good job of Fu Zhangzhu.

Looking at it, he yawned again. Seeing this, Yun Ying hurriedly suggested: "It's still early before the auspicious time, why don't you go and take a nap first, I'll help you watch the hour, and then call you later?" ”

Zhangzhu said helplessly: "How can you sleep with such a heavy thing on your head, forget it, I still get up and walk, and the sleepiness will be gone after a while." ”

When Shen Zheng, he could only hear joy coming, and the suona played a very cheerful and auspicious sound with high momentum. The voice gradually got closer, Yun Ying hurriedly took the scarf on the hanger and covered it with the palm beads, the red scarf was surrounded by golden tassels, embroidered with auspicious patterns of dragons and phoenixes.

Yun Ying whispered two sentences in Zhangzhu's ear, these two words immediately made Zhangzhu nervous, and Yun Ying covered her mouth and didn't laugh.

She couldn't see the person in front of her, but it wasn't until someone took her hand and guided her to follow the steps ahead. It was a broad, powerful and extremely warm hand, obviously not a general's fingertips but with a thin callus, the strength of the hand holding her was just right, making her feel reassured, as long as she followed him, it seemed that she no longer had to worry about being afraid.

Zhangzhu said goodbye to her grandmother, gave a big salute to her uncle and aunt, and said goodbye to her brothers and sisters, and when the firecrackers rang off, she was carried on her back, and then gently stuffed her into the sedan chair. Someone whispered in her ear: "Sister Fu, may you be happy." ”

Although Zhangzhu was nervous, he still didn't forget to say thank you.

It was the third brother who was her, thinking that when their brothers and sisters were fighting, the seventh brother also said that when she was the bride, he would personally carry her on the sedan chair, and the seventh brother was gone, and the third brother of the Du family carried her on the sedan chair, and she was also very happy.

That time when her granddaughter got married, Mrs. Du had never seen it with her own eyes, but fortunately she caught up this time, Mrs. Du's eyes were wet, and she wiped her tears with a handkerchief and forced her tears back.

Seeing this, Grandma Meng couldn't help but whisper a few words to Mrs. Du, and Mrs. Du scolded with a smile: "You are a good person." ”

Chu Yuanzhen rode on the jujube horse with red colors, he couldn't help but look back at the newly decorated sedan chair behind him, his bride was sitting obediently in the sedan chair at the moment, Chu Yuanzhen's heart at the moment was as sweet as eating honey. That year, the flowers were red, the youth was just right, he just stopped by chance, and the woman's shadow was deeply engraved in his heart. I once thought that the two of them would have no fate in this life, and I also thought that between life and death, he would no longer be able to tell her the love hidden in his heart, but she came back, with a little coldness, full of sorrow and layers of disguise. He was fortunate to get such a beautiful woman for three lifetimes.

This road was too difficult for each other, but Chu Yuanzhen knew that as long as she was by his side, he would never lose his way.

The palm beads were tired, especially the crown on her head made her neck extremely sore, and she really wanted to lie down and sleep well.

The veil on her head was picked off, and a pair of dark and bright eyes were staring at her blankly. Zhangzhu was a little confused by such staring, and smiled awkwardly: "I haven't seen you for a long time, and you don't know me?" ”

Chu Yuanzhen's eyes showed a look of surprise, and he said, "It's just that I've never seen you dressed up like this." ”

"Does it look good?"

Chu Yuanzhen nodded without thinking: "Of course it looks good, my bride is the best-looking person in the world." At this moment, Chu Yuanzhen couldn't wait to put all the words of praise on Zhangzhu's body.

Zhangzhu pointed to the crown on the top of his head and said, "Can you help me take it off, it's too heavy." ”

"That's not a question." Chu Yuanzhen stood up as he spoke, he carefully took off the phoenix crown for the palm beads, and tried his best to keep those flowers, trees, emerald pieces and other makeup from shaving the hair of the palm beads.

After the heavy object was removed, I felt relaxed.

She looked up at Chu Yuanzhen, and Chu Yuanzhen's tall figure covered her. The candles in the house were burning brightly, making the new house bright, she couldn't help but smile when she looked at her groom, and then reached out to hug the groom.

It is rare for Zhangzhu to take the initiative once, the beauty is now, and it is the wedding night, Chu Yuanzhen does not say that he is not a man. Then with a slight force, he pushed the palm bead to the bed, and when he was about to kiss her, his eyes were attracted by a blinding bright red, as bright as the blooming in her hair years ago. Chu Yuanzhen stretched out towards her sideburns, and gently picked the camellia that piled up yarn and landed in his palm.

"Didn't you say you don't like camellia?"

Zhangzhu responded with a bright smile: "That's because you like it." ”

The next day, the palm beads should go to the elders of the palace to offer tea to recognize their relatives, and the maid who accompanied the marriage took out the gifts that were ready to be sent everywhere and let the palm beads count, and the palm beads looked around and there was nothing missing, and she asked the maid to put all these things back into a box.

It's still a bride, so she also wears red clothes, but her makeup is much simpler than yesterday. The lady who combed her hair pulled an elegant and generous bun for her, with a red gold phoenix hairpin obliquely inserted in her hair, and a red velvet flower on the sideburns.

"Have you packed up?"

Seeing that Yuanzhen had come in, Zhangzhu hurriedly got up and said, "It's all right." ”

Yuan Zhen took her hand, and the two of them were going to the main house compound in front, and when they were about to step a few steps to the threshold, Yuan Zhen suddenly turned her head and whispered in Zhangzhu's ear: "Your body doesn't matter, right?" ”

"It's good, it's fine."

Yuan Zhen smiled: "That's good, if you have something uncomfortable, just tell me." "Last night was the first night of their marriage, and he couldn't control it in the face of Mei Jiaoniang, so he bullied Zhangzhu a few times, thinking about the absurdity in the night, Meng Lang was a little worried, and he was a little worried about Zhangzhu's body.

However, because of Yuanzhen's words, Zhangzhu's face instantly turned red, she slammed two punches to Yuanzhen to get angry, and Yuanzhen smiled and said: "Stop, your hand is very strong, do you know?" ”

The couple came all the way to the princess's house, and there were already a lot of people sitting in the room here, King Rong was happy, but the princess's face on the side was a little cold. After Zhangzhu entered the house, the princess greeted her, and quietly said a few words to Zhangzhu, Zhangzhu just smiled shyly, and her eyebrows and eyes were full of happiness.

Recognize relatives and give a meeting gift, when she arrived in front of the princess, the princess didn't look at the palm beads very much, and when she handed the seal red, she also said coldly: "May you husband and wife be harmonious and give birth to a noble son as soon as possible." Zhangzhu thanked him.

In addition to the people of the Ten Princes' Mansion, there were other clan relatives who came to participate in today's recognition ceremony, and after a lap, she was already tired of palming beads, and many people who had never met before, she had long since failed to recognize who was who.

When she was done, she just wanted to go back to her room and lie down. After finally satisfying his wishes, he lay on the soft bed with his palms on his back and didn't want to move, sore and weak, these two days were really hard two days. I thought that she had walked out of the snow-capped mountains of Lechun alone, and her physique had been trained enough to form a knot, but it turned out that she was wrong. Zhangzhu recalled what Yuan Zhen had said to her in the morning, and she had already said a few words in her heart.

When Yuanzhen came back from the party, she saw her wife lying there sleeping soundly, and her sleeping appearance attracted Yuanzhen couldn't help but bow her head and kiss her lips. Zhangzhu immediately sat up and stretched out his hand to stop him: "Don't make trouble, I'm tired." ”

Seeing that she had misunderstood, Yuan Zhen hurriedly raised her hands and said, "Okay, I won't bother you." You should rest first, and tomorrow you will prepare to enter the palace to meet the queen and the crown princess. ”

"Enter the palace?"

Yuan Zhen patiently said to her: "Yes, after all, this is a royal marriage, and the queen mother came forward in person, and according to the rules, she should enter the palace to kowtow." Don't be afraid, just follow me closely when the time comes, and I won't leave you alone. ”

It's not that Zhangzhu has never entered the palace before, and she has nothing to fear.

At the beginning of February, Erlong raised his head, Zhangzhu got into the carriage first, and saw that Yuanzhen had not come for a long time, so she said to the maid in front of her: "But I asked the second master before whether he wanted to ride a horse or ride with me?" ”

Zhangzhu sat in the car and waited for a while, Yuanzhen finally came, he saw Zhangzhu and quickly apologized: "I was suddenly called by my eldest brother to ask about something, so I was late and made you wait for a long time." ”

Zhangzhu didn't say anything, she took the initiative to give way to the side to leave enough space for Yuanzhen.

After Yuan Zhen got into the car, the carriage began to move forward. Yuan Zhen took the palm bead back to Biyun Villa, and the rest of the palace would not return to Shoufeng until a while, and the two went first.

Zhangzhu recalled that she went to Du's house to say goodbye to her grandmother yesterday, and her grandmother was still crying with her in her arms, and Zhangzhu almost shed tears at that time.

Yuan Zhen took the hand of the palm bead and said: "I know that the capital is of great significance to you, as long as you want to come back in the future, I will definitely accompany you." ”

Palm beads bowed his head and said, "It doesn't matter, I'm fine." ”

The spring breeze is warm, blowing the pond water, blowing the green mountains, blowing the red flowers, the wind on the face is no longer cold, and spring has arrived.

When passing by a peach forest, the maid outside handed a blooming peach branch to the palm beads. Zhangzhu took the peach blossom and Yuanzhen and said: "Do you know, this peach blossom can also be used in medicine, my mother will mix a kind of potpourri paste, all made of various flowers, among which the most used is peach blossom." Potpourri cream is the best for the healing of scabbed scars, so that the skin can be as new as new, leaving no traces, I heard that my grandfather painstakingly researched back then. ”

"I didn't know that peach blossoms were so useful, so let's plant more trees in the villa in the future, and a variety of flowers is good?" Yuan Zhen said and pinched the face of the palm bead dotingly.

Zhangzhu smiled: "It's not bad, from now on we will have to be self-reliant, and it shouldn't be difficult to run the villa with heart to eat and dress." ”

It was already April when we set off from the capital to Biyun Villa, and many of the flowers had already passed their flowering period, leaving only one tree with green leaves.

The arrival of the couple made Qiao Niangzi and others very happy, but Chun Tao and Chun Ying sisters had already married and had a little less fun.

Zhangzhu and Yuanzhen went to worship their mother, and she told her mother about clearing the grievances of the Xie family.

"Mother, I will never forget your teachings in my life, and I will definitely inherit the legacy of you and my grandfather and become a suitable doctor. I will not refuse to give up if someone else needs help. Please rest in peace, may there be an afterlife, and may you still be my mother. ”

Chu Yuanzhen looked towards another tomb, which was also neatly lit. There are a few flowers in the clay pot in front of the grave, the white one should be peony, and the yellow one is the moon season. It's just that the camellia around it still hasn't reached the flowering stage.

The couple lived here permanently, and they could often be seen by nearby villagers. Chu Yuanzhen funded a school, and dozens of children signed up as soon as the school was built. Yuan Zhen personally taught those children to read and write. Zhangzhu was dressed as a peasant woman, and she and the women in the countryside popularized the prevention of various diseases and the knowledge of various common herbal medicines.

Both of them are loved by the villagers, and the couple does not care about fame, but also cares about the mountains and rivers.
