Chapter Forty-Six: Reality
Xia Na and Qiao Ping's wedding was particularly simple, so simple that it was sadly simple.
It happened suddenly, there was no guest banquet, and the wedding room was too late to clean up, and even the wedding hall was hastily arranged by star fruit and Qiao An.
The two of them had no experience, and they didn't have time to inquire, so they only bought red silk and red candles according to their own ideas, and barely made the lobby happy.
Xia Na and Qiao Ping visited the church, Qiao An was the master of ceremonies, and then sent into the cave room, Qiao Ping was called out by Aunt Wang.
Carambola couldn't bear to sit alone at the head of the bed and stay with her.
At first, no one spoke, and the star fruit had the heart to comfort her, but after thinking about the scene when Yang Cui got married, she felt sad, and felt that no matter how good the words were, they were empty and powerless.
Xana, who was covered with a hijab, chuckled to herself.
Through the red hijab, the star fruit looked at her suspiciously: "Are you okay?" ”
"I'm fine, I'm happy!" Xiana lifted half of her hijab and put it on top of her head, and her smiling eyes were full of honey: "Since I met An Zhiyuan, I never dreamed that I could have today." But today is here, Qiao Ping is willing to marry me, it is a willing star fruit. ”
Her body was still very weak, and the heavy powder couldn't hide the sallow color of her face. Carambola endured and endured, but couldn't help asking, "Aren't you wronged?" The family treated you like that, and the Qiao family carried you into the door without making a sound, a marriage that only comes once in a lifetime, so it's perfunctory, aren't you wronged? ”
"Don't be aggrieved!" Xia Na's face was flushed with shyness, but it was more contented and firm: "I grew up to seventeen years old, clothed and fed, surrounded by slaves and maids, didn't I rely on Daddy's hard work and blood and sweat?" He wants to take back some money now, I don't want to, I fight desperately but I don't dare to have resentment, if it weren't for the blood of my father and mother, how could there be such a person as me Xana in this world?
Let's talk about weddings, how many people enter the house with eight sedan chairs and ten miles of red makeup, but end up with a miserable ending of being alone in an empty room? Husband and wife are stronger than anything else, and life after a good life is stronger than anything else. ”
Her eyes were unusually bright, and the smile on her face was exceptionally sweet and sincere, and star fruit knew that what she was saying now was true.
Carambola let go of her worries, smiled at Xia Na and said, "If you think so, I'm relieved." ”
Xia Na was about to answer, and Qiao Jin came over to invite star fruit to the table. Xana pulled down the hijab and covered it, waving her hand to let the star fruit go away.
Along the way, Qiao Xiu held the carambola's arm tightly and chattered, talking about how the second girl was not authentic for a while, and then talking about what new skills she had learned, and went around to her for a long time, and asked her cautiously: "My eldest brother is married, when will you be willing to be my sister-in-law?" ”
Star fruit was almost choked by saliva, and she lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Qiao Xiu's eyes.
Seeing her like this, Qiao Xiu grinned, leaned into her ear and whispered: "I already knew about you and my second brother, without my cover, you can steal the horn bow of the ancestral hall when he is alone?" ”
The little star fruit blushed and elbowed her: "Since you know everything, what are you still joking about what I do?" Is it a big deal like marriage, can I calculate it if I say it? ”
"Shy!" Carambola reached out to tickle Qiao Xiu's itchy flesh, laughed so much that her tears came out, and she hurriedly begged for mercy.
When we arrived at the dining hall, everyone was already seated.
Suddenly, there were no good dishes at the wedding banquet. Qiao Kangcheng poured a bottle of good wine and gave a glass to each of his sons: "On the big day, drink a little." ”
As he spoke, he looked at the star fruit again, and wanted to say something, but he didn't say it in the end.
The family simply ate, but Qiao Kangcheng didn't let everyone disperse. He sat down on the first place, his eyes half-closed, and his right hand tapping rhythmically on the table.
Aunt Wang pushed Qiao Jin and Qiao Xiu out, and then glanced at Qiao Ping, Qiao An and Star Fruit who were standing below.
Several people quietly exchanged glances, and each knew that disaster was coming.
Joan quietly moved her body and hid the star fruit behind her in a protective stance.
Aunt Wang saw the small movements of several people in her eyes, and let out a long sigh: "Star fruit, let me ask myself, haven't you done anything to be sorry for you?" Even if your Uncle Qiao did something indecent about the Zhou family last time, it didn't hurt you anything in the end, right! ”
Facing Aunt Wang, star fruit always felt empty-hearted.
She shrunk her neck and didn't know how to answer, Qiao An had already stood up: "Star fruit was forced by our brothers, mother, don't embarrass her." ”
Qiao Kangcheng opened his eyes and glanced at Qiao An, his eyes were so cold that his bones were cold.
"It's all this time, do you still want to protect it?"
Qiao An stiffened her neck and stood firmly in front of the star fruit, the star fruit wanted to come out, and Qiao An stubbornly stuffed her back: "The Qiao family has caused trouble by itself, and my father still blames others?" ”
"You know it's a curse? Who is An Zhiyuan, what kind of family is An, you ......"
Seeing that Qiao Kangcheng couldn't suppress the fire, Aunt Wang hurriedly intercepted the conversation: "If you can't do it, you can do it, and if you shouldn't offend, what is the use of saying this?" ”
"Qiao Ann went to the ancestral hall to kneel, if it weren't for you, your brother wouldn't be able to do this."
Carambola is still standing here, and Joan is a hornet's nest that has been pierced by his father's eye knife and refuses to leave.
Aunt Wang had no choice but to say star fruit in front of him: "The affairs of my Qiao family have nothing to do with you, if you come to mix again in the future, you will be blamed as an aunt to go to the Yang family to speak." But after tearing his face, I'm afraid that your Yang family will have a hard time in the future. ”
Seeing that the star fruit didn't squeak, Aunt Wang slowly added: "One Yang Cui is enough, if you follow her old path, will your father and mother still have a face?" ”
Carambola looked up at her suddenly, and Aunt Wang's eyes rushed violently: "What are you so unconvinced?" Yang Cui was calculated by someone, but someone calculated you? I am a good son, let you do anything out of the ordinary, and I preach that it will spare you. ”
"Mother......
"Shut up!" Aunt Wang stabbed Qiao An with a knife in the eye: "One more word for her, I will arrest her and go to Lizheng's house now, I have to ask the official master to help ask, how did she bring Qiao Ping into the Xia Mansion, and how did she kidnap you to be her medicine boy?" ”
Carambola's face turned purple, she saluted Aunt Wang, and then hurried out.
Qiao An wanted to chase, but Qiao Kangcheng grabbed him by the neck from behind: "Don't force me to lose my conscience and ruin that girl's life." ”
"Don't think I really don't know what you have with that girl, if you dare to meet her in private, I will break your legs first and then hand her over to Lizheng. If a girl does such a thing, if she doesn't send it to the sister-in-law temple for cultivation, I see who can be convinced! ”
On the way back, star fruit thought a lot alone, and the more she thought about it, the more her heart hurt.
She went to find Sister A, looking at her Sister A's more and more ruddy face and more sincere smile, she couldn't help but ask her: "Sister, do you say that reputation is important?" A woman who has a bad reputation still has a chance to be happy, right? ”
Sister Ah was cleaning up the remaining pickles, and when she heard this, she stopped what she was doing.
She saw that the star fruit was tired of having no energy, so she guessed the reason why she asked: "Things with Qiao An are not going well, and the Qiao family will also embarrass you." ”
Star fruit lay on the table listlessly, and said weakly: "I have done something out of the ordinary in the past two days, and I can't figure out whether I have accumulated virtue or broken into goods." ”
She told Xia Na and Qiao Ping about it, and looked at Sister A's eyes with hope: "She said that the form is not important, and the suffering is not enough to worry about, as long as the two people can finally come together, as long as the two people are heart-to-heart, they will definitely be able to run for a good life in the future."
Sister, do you think she is right? No matter how bitter you used to be, aren't you living a very nourishing life now? ”
She likes to eat sweets when she is unhappy, Yang Cui turned a bowl of sugar boiling water and put it in front of her: "If I were you, I wouldn't have hope." It's too late to stop now, and it's good for everyone to cut it off.
Whether it's me or Xana, our married parents are not the biggest obstacle. You are different, the Qiao family disagrees, what can you do? Elope? ”
Carambola was holding a coarse porcelain bowl to drink, and when she heard the words, she put the water back again, looked at her sister with big eyes and said, "As long as I'm good enough, the Qiao family shouldn't object." ”
"Good enough?" Yang Cui stretched out her hand and rubbed her second sister's bangs, shook her head helplessly and smiled: "How can it be considered good enough?" Some people like to eat cabbage, and they may not like it if they are stewed mountain delicacies. Even if you like it, it's only because of the mountain treasures, if one day there are no mountain treasures, the radish will still be disliked. ”
Carambola took a bowl and drank sugar water, taking a big sip of it, but why was it still so bitter in my heart?
"Sister knows that you are uncomfortable, but it is better to be uncomfortable for a while than to be uncomfortable for a lifetime. If you really force the Qiao family to ruin your reputation, how will you live in the future? How can my father and mother hold their heads up and be a man?
Peach, we can't be too selfish as children. If you gamble on your future and fate, you can not be afraid of losing. But not now, your name is related to the Yang family's tutor, the daughters of the family to choose a son-in-law, and the rest of our father's life. Can you bear to gamble and lose the fate of so many people? ”
The star fruit drank all the sugar water in one go, and then handed the bowl over: "Sister, I want it!" ”
Yang Cui brought the sugar jar to her hand, and took chopsticks for her to eat: "Sister is still the same sentence, if Qiao An really cares for you, she shouldn't let you mess around like this." ”
"The problem between you and him is his family, and if he wants to have the ability, he first persuaded the family and asked the matchmaker to come to the door to propose. If he doesn't have that ability, you are doomed to have no result, and you will be the only one who will not recover. ”
Star fruit ate several chopsticks and lay down, and her throat was uncomfortable. She reached out to pour water, and Sister Ah had already filled the bowl in front of her with a pot: "It's not a deal, you go back and think about it yourself, you are so smart, you should understand that Sister Ah didn't hurt you." ”
On the way home, star fruit repeatedly thought about Aunt Wang's words, thought about Sister A's words, and then laughed at herself.
Aunt Wang is not an unreasonable person, but as soon as she came, she took herself under the knife, what does that mean? It shows that she knows that it is because of her that Qiao An is involved in the affairs of the Xia family, and because of her, the Qiao family will offend the An family and the Xia family.
Also, Second Uncle Qiao is the gentleman of the private school, how many things can be hidden from his eyes in the private school? It's ridiculous that she and Joan even wanted to hide from the world......
Thinking of Aunt Wang's unprecedented sharp expression, star fruit suddenly became scared!
