Chapter 16: Today I'm Married!
My aunt's face was faint in the candlelight, and my mind went blank, and I didn't know how to understand what she was saying.
Marry her?
Marry my widowed cousin?
Seeing that I didn't answer for a long time, she continued: "Tomorrow is the first seven, and you have one night to think about marrying me or leaving." ”
She said that she got up and was about to leave, but I subconsciously raised my arm and grabbed her hand and said, "You can't go!" ”
Her cold skin stirred me up, and almost instantly the strength in my hands loosened.
She easily got rid of my hand, but instead of leaving at once, she stood there and looked at me for a long time before saying, "You only have one night." ”
With that, she turned and went into the back room, and I went limp and fell on the chair.
It's too messy, it's too messy in my head, why did things turn out like this?
Maybe I should have listened to the fat man a long time ago, and got out of here early, so that I didn't get sick of the Virgin, and things wouldn't have turned out like this.
But when I think of those fellow villagers who treat me like relatives, my heart softens again, they have been honest all their lives, who will provoke whom?
Why do you want to do someone else's funeral because it has nothing to do with you?
I rubbed my face, staggered out of my chair, and went outside to wash my face with cold well water to calm myself down.
That night, I smoked countless cigarettes, and finally when the sun was about to rise, I finally made up my mind.
I went back to the house, went to my cousin's room, and knocked on the door.
"Come in."
I pushed the door in and found that she was putting on makeup in front of the mirror, and it was a wedding makeup!
The beauty in the mirror makes me unable to take my eyes off, it's so beautiful.
"The first seven ceremonies will start at twelve o'clock tonight, before that, marry me, otherwise I won't be able to control that demon pill." My cousin said as she put on makeup.
She had already guessed my choice, and I didn't want to say anything more, so she nodded and was about to go out, when she suddenly said, "By the way, my name is Li Yingxue." ”
When I came out of the room, the sun had risen, and I smoked a cigarette and began to think about getting married.
I never thought that I would get married at this age, let alone get married under such circumstances, nor did I think that my marriage partner would be such a person.
It may also not be human.
Of course, none of this matters, what shovel fox nest, what demon pill, what the purpose of the Li family, it doesn't matter, what is important now is that I have to do this in order to save those innocent people.
I made a few phone calls, the first one was to the wedding company in town, and they gave an extra 20 percent of the money, so that they must have all the personnel and props ready by one o'clock this afternoon, because I am getting married today.
The little girl who answered the phone was stunned by my question, and asked me three times in a row, "Sir, let me confirm with you again, are you really getting married today?" Finally, after an impatient answer, she handed over the call to her supervisor, and after some communication, I gave an extra 20 percent of the money and paid 10 percent in advance to finalize the matter.
The second call, I called the people who sell wedding wine and meat in the town, there are many marriage rules in our village, what eight big things, nine small things, anyway, I can't remember, these things sell wedding wine and meat people know that at two o'clock in the afternoon, these things must all be in place.
The third call, I contacted a Mr. Red Thing, the wedding host in the town may not understand the rules of our village, and when the time comes, I can't suppress the scene, for the sake of safety, I want to go to the phone number of an old Mr. Red in the next village, and ask him to contact the big red sedan chair by the way, at one o'clock in the afternoon, he must be there.
The last call, I made to a security company in town, twenty heavily armed men, who arrived at the scene before eleven o'clock.
I'm going to marry a widowed cousin, and I'm going to be beaten to death in the village!"
After everything is arranged, there is one more important thing to do, and that is to set up the stage.
This kind of thing, generally every village has a special person to do, but unfortunately, the person in charge of this matter in our village is someone under Zhao Erhu.
When I found Zhao Erhu and told him that I had to set up a wedding platform at the head of the village before one o'clock today, he looked at me like a psychopath: "Are you fucking crazy? Whoever started to set up the stage on the wedding day can't do it! ”
I didn't talk nonsense with him, I took out the 10,000 yuan I had just withdrawn from the bank, threw the bag in front of him and said, "Give you 10,000 more!" ”
Zhao Erhu was obviously moved, but this guy was also a thief, and he couldn't do it and said: "You are in a hurry to do this, it's really not good..."
"Add another 10,000!"
I let it go, I took out 100,000 yuan of the money my cousin left for me, and smashed another 10,000 yuan in front of Zhao Erhu.
This time he didn't hesitate, nodded and put the money away, and said to me: "And my father's grave move, you remember it for me!" ”
I nodded and said, "Before one o'clock at noon, set up the platform, and I'll give you another five thousand!" ”
Zhao Erhu's eyes lit up, he threw the cigarette butt to the ground, and shouted at a few people behind him: "Fuck up, work, work!" ”
After this was done, I ran to the head of the village, and the security team had already arrived, and the four vans were parked at the entrance of the village, provoking many onlookers.
I went over, said hello to the fat security captain, handed him a cigarette and said, "How many people are here?" ”
The security captain took the cigarette: "Twenty-five, twenty people, and five reserves, all of them are fully armed!" ”
I patted him on the shoulder, dragged him over, stuffed a red envelope into his arms and said, "There is one thing, let me make it clear to you, this security mission is different from the past, and there may be conflicts." ”
The captain glanced at the villagers who were watching the excitement behind him and said, "Boss, these are all honest villagers, there won't be anything wrong..."
I shook my head at him: "In a word, let your brothers cheer me up, as long as you don't kill anyone, all the responsibility is mine!" ”
He was taken aback, it is estimated that the captain has not encountered a real scene for so long, I comforted him and said: "Don't worry, I added this sentence to the contract, in addition, this thing is done, all of you, 2000 big red envelopes per person, you give 5000!" ”
As soon as he heard that there was money, the captain came to the spirit and said to the security guards behind him: "Brothers, cheer me up, the boss has spoken, the work is done neatly, 1500 big red envelopes per person!" ”
The crowd behind me immediately cheered, and the captain winked his eyes out of me.
I took this group of people into the village and walked towards Zhao Erhu to set up the stage, and the first step to ensure that the wedding stage must be completed on time!
I walked in front alone, behind me were twenty-five heavily armed security guards, on both sides of us were villagers watching the excitement, pointing and pointing, some people were whispering, not knowing what I was going to do, and some dared to come over and ask me: "Chen Ming, what are you going to do with such a big formation?" ”
I gave him a blank look: "Get married!" ”
The man immediately looked deflated and stopped talking.
After walking a few steps, I saw Uncle Li and a few people from the Li family hurrying to me, running in front of me and sweating profusely: "Chen Ming, why do you still have the heart to wander around here?" Your cousin's white business is about to start tonight, what are you going to do? ”
I pointed to the person behind me, and Uncle Li was stunned for a moment and asked, "Do white things, what are you doing with so many security guards?" ”
I stared into his eyes and said word by word: "Today, heaven, I, get married." ”
This time, not only Uncle Li, but also the group of Li family members behind him also exclaimed, and one of the older people even blew his beard and glared at me: "Chen Ming, you are too disagreeable!" Your cousin is the seventh tonight, and you are still getting married today? Red and white hedge, I think you want your cousin to die! ”
Other people also echoed, and the people watching the excitement next to me immediately pointed at me when they heard that I was going to get married today, and a few peers who were usually close to me came over to persuade me not to do it, and it would be bad for anyone to fight back.
I ignored them, but let them talk about it, and finally Uncle Li couldn't hold his breath and said to me: "Chen Ming, what you did is indeed a bit excessive, the villagers are right, you get married at this juncture, isn't it obvious that your cousin will not be blind!" ”
"If I don't get married today, will my cousin be able to look at me?!"
I stared at Uncle Li's eyes and asked him, he was stunned for a moment, and immediately lost his temper: "Chen Ming, what do you mean?!" ”
He yelled at me, and the group of security guards behind me immediately surrounded me, with blast sticks and shields in their hands, far from being something that a few bare-handed peasants could do.
Uncle Li saw that I was prepared, so he beckoned to a young man behind him, whispered a few words in his ear, and the young man turned around and ran away.
I know that he must have asked that person to go back and tell Grandpa Li that I was going to harm them!
"Uncle Li, I'm getting married today, make a mistake." I said with a smile on his face.
He glared at me angrily and asked, "Who are you marrying?!" ”
"Does it have anything to do with you?" I pushed him away and said to the person behind me, "Go!" ”
The team followed me to Zhao Erhu, he was directing a group of people to set up a platform, and when he looked back, I was startled, and the thief smiled: "You are married, the formation is big enough!" ”
I smiled at him: "Hurry up and get to work, wait, there's a good show!" ”
I asked the security captain to leave ten people here to protect the wedding platform, and the others followed me to the entrance of the village to pick up the people from the wedding company, and they were also shocked when they saw this formation, and they had to arrange security guards for the first time when they saw the wedding.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, Mr. Hongshi also arrived, and the wedding table was set up as scheduled, and I arranged for someone to announce it at the village entrance radio station, telling everyone that I Chen Ming was getting married today, and all of them came to the village to make a happy scene, as long as they came, there would be red envelopes!
Almost half an hour, all the villagers came, and I saw Grandpa Li and Uncle Li from a distance, with a group of people with things in their hands, standing at the back, and it seemed that today's tough battle could not be avoided.
When I returned to my cousin's house, Li Yingxue was already dressed, covered with a red hijab, and sat on the bed waiting for me.
"Ready?" She asked me softly.
I let out an "um" and I felt her smile under the hijab: "Let's get started, then." ”
I squatted in front of her, and Li Yingxue gently climbed onto my back, neither light nor heavy.
As soon as I gritted my teeth, I went down this road, but there was no turning back!
I carried her on my back and walked to the door, took a deep breath, slammed the door open, and shouted outside, "Bride out!" Get up! ”
