Chapter Ninety-Four: A Marriage
After Mingyue and Nangong Yurou returned to the dormitory, they briefly explained the situation with Dou Ruhua and Mo Yao, and Dou Ruhua's mood looked very low.
Mingyue didn't know how to comfort her, no matter who this kind of thing happened to, it would be an embarrassing thing.
Mingyue grew up in a small town, and among the people, if a yellow flower girl who has not been out of the cabinet is looked down upon, it will be difficult to marry, unless the person who looks at her is willing to marry her.
In the world of immortal cultivators, immortal cultivators are not as rigid as the mundane world, and women's minds should be much more open. But people's words are terrifying, for a girl who has not come out of the cabinet, it is a very discrediting thing to be looked at by others.
This night, Mingyue thought about it in bed and tossed and turned for a long time before falling asleep.
Early the next morning, Xiao Qiuyu quietly called the people involved, Dou Ruhua, Niu Zhuangzhuang, and Wei Fang, to inquire about the situation.
Although Xiao Qiuyu repeatedly told the people involved not to spread the matter, so as not to have a bad impact on the parties, there were still rumors in the academy that a male disciple surnamed Niu broke into the women's bathhouse and bumped into a female disciple surnamed Dou.
At dinner that day, Mingyue, Nangong Yurou, and Mo Yao accompanied Dou Ruhua to the cafeteria to eat, many disciples pointed at this side, and a male disciple at the adjacent table actually pointed at Dou Ruhua and smiled: "Haha, isn't this the woman who was looked at." ”
After the male disciple finished speaking, he also "shh ”
"If it's the big beauty next to me, I'm willing to see as much money as I want." The man pointed to the moon and smiled obscenely.
Dou Ruhua had been burying her head and didn't dare to see anyone, and when she heard that the hand holding the chopsticks shook, tears crackled and fell.
Mingyue and the others glanced at each other, and they were all angry by the words of the two male disciples.
Mingyue put down the bowl with a "bang", rushed to the table of the two male disciples, slapped the table with a "snap", and asked loudly: "Are you happy to base your own happiness on the pain of others?" ”
The cafeteria fell silent for a moment, and everyone looked over to this side.
"Beauty, we didn't talk about you!" The first male disciple shrank and whispered with a red face.
"Can you just criticize people?" Mingyue asked aggressively.
"Okay, okay, beauty, can't we be wrong? I won't say it later. Another male disciple saw Mingyue with a pretty face, and a pair of beautiful eyes full of anger, and couldn't help but stand up and play round.
Mingyue returned to the table angrily, but saw Dou Ruhua hiding her face and crying, Mo Yao and Nangong Yurou were comforting one and wiping her tears.
Everyone returned to the dormitory dejectedly, Mingyue thought about it and comforted Dou Ruhua and said: "Huahua, no one wants this kind of thing to happen, but it has happened, so I can only think about it a little." You can't control what others say, you must be strong. ”
"yes, it's like being bitten by a dog." Mo Yao also said: "The dog bites you, you can't bite back, right?" ”
Dou Ruhua broke down and cried, she yelled at Mingyue while crying, "How do you want me to think about it?" Everyone was laughing at me, sarcastically mocking me, saying that there was something nice about my figure, as if the person who looked at it was the one who suffered. If you were stared at, it is estimated that the person who watched would have been crying and shouting to marry you! But what about me, what about me? If I am looked at and ridiculed, who knows the pain in my heart? It's not my fault that I'm ugly, who doesn't want to be pretty? ”
When Nangong Yurou heard this, she was also anxious: "Huahua, this kind of thing is not what we want, we can only comfort you, you can't spill your anger on Mingyue." ”
"Yes, just because I'm ugly, I can't be angry with anyone, and I have to swallow the pain myself." Dou Ruhua cried and ran into her room, "banging" herself inside, and her crying voice came from the room.
Mingyue, Mo Yao, and Nangong Yurou looked at each other and sighed helplessly.
"No, I'm going to find Niu Zhuangzhuang." Mingyue said to Mo Yao and Nangong Yurou: "You still need to tie the bell to the bell, you two look at Dou Ruhua, don't let her do stupid things." ”
Mo Yao and Nangong Yurou nodded hurriedly: "You go, let's look at her." ”
Mingyue came to the door of the male disciple's dormitory and asked someone to call Niu Zhuangzhuang out. After seeing Niu Zhuangzhuang, Mingyue couldn't help but be surprised, it turned out that Niu Zhuangzhuang, who was honest and simple, with a warm smile on his face, looked haggard at this time, and his mood was very low, as if he had aged a lot overnight.
"Mingyue, are you even here to accuse me?" Niu Zhuangzhuang looked at the mountains in the distance and muttered, "Everyone scolds me for being a pervert, but I really didn't mean to break into the women's bathhouse." ”
"Zhuangzhuang, I believe you are innocent." Mingyue replied affirmatively.
"Really?" Niu Zhuangzhuang's gloomy eyes suddenly became shining: "Even Xiao Qiuyu asked me if I went in on purpose." I have always been left and right, and before entering the bathhouse that day, I carefully read the sign before entering, lest I make a mistake and make people laugh. However, in the end, I got it wrong, and I didn't know that there were times when the listing went wrong. Mingyue, will I be expelled from the Xianmen? ”
"Zhuangzhuang, I believe in you, and I also believe that the Shushan Immortal Sect will definitely handle this matter fairly. I came to you today, in fact, I want to tell you that Ruhua is in a very bad situation right now. Now no matter where she goes, she will be pointed at and ridiculed, and she is so inferior that she doesn't even dare to go out of the dormitory door. ”
"It's all my fault...... Niu Zhuangzhuang said bitterly, pulling the hair on the top of his head, "but what can I do to make up for the damage done to her!" She must be more upset than me......"
"Ruhua is a very traditional woman, in the world, an unmarried woman is seen like this, she will be immersed in a pig cage. Unless....." Mingyue said this, and stopped talking.
Niu Zhuangzhuang's heart trembled when he heard this, and he looked up at Mingyue probingly, of course he understood what Mingyue meant when he said it.
At this time, a gorgeous face appeared in his mind, which had been deeply engraved into his mind since he first saw him in the restaurant, lingering and having a long aftertaste.
However, she was a beautiful and noble princess, and she did not give any disdain to him, or never looked at him squarely. And all he could do was silently watch her joys, sorrows, and every move.
She was a princess of a Turkic country with a distinguished background, and he came from a poor background, destined to stand in the crowd, silently and from afar.
That's it, maybe it's fate, right? Niu Zhuangzhuang thought sadly, he didn't have a prominent family background, his background was even more ordinary, and he was not a genius in cultivating immortals, so he didn't want to eat swan meat like a toad.
Niu Zhuangzhuang thought of this, his face was gloomy, and he said to Mingyue: "Please tell Ruhua, I, Niu Zhuangzhuang, am a frank person, and I will give her an explanation." ”
Mingyue nodded, seeing that Niu Zhuangzhuang looked preoccupied, knowing that he was not feeling good in his heart, she comforted him a few words and left.
Before Mingyue reached the women's dormitory, she saw someone running out of the door and running in the direction of the back mountain. Mingyue's heart tightened, and she hurriedly grabbed a female disciple beside her and asked.
"I heard that someone was going to commit suicide by jumping off a cliff, and it was the one who was seen in the bath two days ago..... Hey, why did you run away? Before the person being questioned finished speaking, he saw Mingyue rushing towards the back mountain.
At this time, Mingyue was anxious, where did she still have the heart to listen to her explanation.
"Mingyue, I heard that Ruhua is going to jump off the cliff, why did you go?" Mingyue was running, and someone from behind ran up and asked.
As soon as Mingyue turned around, she saw that it was Han Ruge who was dragging Niu Zhuang and galloping over. The two of them were followed by the men and women of the brigade, and those people looked extremely excited, looking like they were going to see the excitement.
Mingyue thought sadly and indignantly, these people are really cold-blooded, they really have nothing to do with themselves, and they hang high.
"That's what I just knew. You're here too, just right. Mingyue replied breathlessly.
They saw from a distance that there were many people around the cliff side of the back mountain, Xiao Qiuyu was standing not far away and talking anxiously about something, and Mo Yao and Nangong Yurou were also anxiously persuading Xiao Qiuyu.
Even Elder Jiang Lingshan of the Torture Gate rushed over and was standing aside with a serious face.
"Come here again, and I'll jump. Anyway, my innocence is gone, and it is better to be ridiculed when I am alive, than to be a hundred after death. Dou Ruhua saw that Mingyue and Niu Zhuangzhuang were coming, she took a step closer to the edge of the cliff, and cried out loudly with tears streaming down her face.
The sea of clouds rolled under the cliff behind the academy, and it was bottomless, and it was difficult to find even the bones if you jumped like this. The wind howled and lifted her clothes and hair, as if to sweep her away, and the scene looked even miserable.
"Like a flower, if you have something to say, don't think about it." Mingyue pulled the pale-faced Niu Zhuangzhuang, and shouted anxiously at Dou Ruhua: "Niu Zhuangzhuang is also here, you must at least listen to what he has to say." ”
"I don't want to hear it, let him go, I don't want to see him again. Woo woo woo ...... "Dou Ruhua hid his face and cried bitterly, and his fat body cried and sobbed.
Niu Zhuangzhuang slowly walked towards Dou Ruhua, stretched out his hand and said: "Ruhua, I'm sorry, it's all my fault, don't jump off the cliff." If you want, I do, I do...... After we graduate from the academy...... Marry you. ”
Niu Zhuangzhuang saw Dou Ruhua's eyes shining and looked up at him, so he said firmly: "I am not an excellent man, and I don't have a strong family background, if I marry you, I don't know if I will wronged you?" ”
Dou Ruhua listened to Niu Zhuangzhuang's words, her lips trembled, and tears fell down her eyes.
Dou Ruhua's eyes burst into a burning light, and she asked in a hoarse voice, "Are you really willing to marry me?" Not taunting me? You really don't like me...... Ugly? ”
Niu Zhuangzhuang looked at Dou Ruhua and said firmly: "My Niu Zhuang gentleman said a word, and it is difficult for a horse to chase." After graduating from the academy, I am willing to marry a wife who is a flower in the world, an immortal couple in the immortal cultivation world, and never leave the same heart and white head. Please ask all the academy disciples here to testify for us, and Senior Brother Xiao Qiuyu and Elder Jiang to testify. The day of the completion of five years of study is the time when my ox is strong and strong to marry Dou Ruhua, if I violate the oath, the sky will thunder and thunder, and I will not die. ”
Dou Ruhua hid her face and cried bitterly when she heard this, Niu Zhuangzhuang took the opportunity to walk over and hold Dou Ruhua's hand, led her to Xiao Qiuyu and Jiang Lingshan, pulled Dou Ruhua to kneel, took out a cloth bag from her arms, opened it layer by layer, and took out a piece of variegated jade talisman with a very ordinary color: "This is the peace talisman that my mother asked me from the temple when I left home." I gave it to Douruhua as a token of our engagement. ”
Niu Zhuangzhuang solemnly placed the variegated jade talisman in the palm of Dou Ruhua's hand, and his hands tightly wrapped Dou Ruhua's hands.
Dou Ruhua's fat face turned pink instantly, and she lowered her head and accepted the jade talisman, with joy and shyness in her eyes that could not be hidden.
There was warm applause all around, and the onlookers cheered for the couple.
"This matter is settled, everyone is scattered, everyone is scattered." Seeing that the matter was over, Elder Jiang Lingshan raised his hand and said to everyone: "Everyone must believe that the Immortal Cultivation Academy will definitely handle this matter impartially. ”
Mingyue, Nangong Yurou and Mo Yao were relieved to see that Dou Ruhua had finally untied the knot in their hearts and achieved a marriage, and they were also happy for her.
Dou Ruhua has always secretly liked Niu Zhuangzhuang, they all know it, although Dou Ruhua is damaged in the name, but she finally tasted what she wanted.
Perhaps, this is the perfect ending, right?
The next day, Xiuxian Academy still announced the punishment results of Niu Zhuangzhuang: although Niu Zhuangzhuang had no intention of breaking into the women's bathhouse, he also had to bear the corresponding consequences. Nian was a first-time offender, and he had a good attitude of admitting his mistakes and was willing to bear the relevant responsibilities of the victim, so he was punished to think about the cliff face and think about it for ten days.
Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the punishment result, the punishment of Shushan Xianmen was relatively reasonable, as for the matter of the bathhouse listing, the academy couldn't find out why, and the matter was finally settled.
After the pill class in the afternoon, Murong Yiwen told Mingyue: "Senior Sister Mingyue, Master wants to see you, you can go with me to meet his old man now." ”
"Elder Jiang of the Medicine Sect?" Mingyue asked in surprise, "What is he looking for me?" ”
Murong Yiwen said: "I don't know very well, you can only know when you go." ”
