Chapter 322: Sudden Interest
They listened to me and smiled embarrassedly at me, and then the girl actually looked at me really seriously, and then said to me very honestly, "You are better looking than a bride." "I was amused by her, but this kid is too honest.
I was in a playful mind, and it was so boring to sit on the train, I needed to find something to do, so I didn't have anything to say, so I asked her, "Aren't you going back to the bride's wedding this time?" You've seen her before? The girl nodded and told me, "Yes, we are all in the same village, and the bride's family is a big family in the village, who doesn't know her?" But we all know her and not just because she has money in her family. Seeing her like this, I could only ask the two boys who were traveling with her for answers, and when the boys saw me looking at them suspiciously, they smiled at me awkwardly, and one of the boys had to tell me the reason: "It's because the bride is so ugly, she is the ugliest girl in our township." β
I remembered their praise of the groom in the waiting hall, and asked them suspiciously: "The groom is so good, good-looking, how can he fall in love with her?" "At my words, the two boys were about to speak, but the girl poked them with her elbow, and they immediately shut up, as if there was some secret secret, and they kept it secret when they were chatting in the waiting hall.
The more this happened, the more it hooked my gossip heart, and I pretended to be generous and said to them: "Forget it, if it's inconvenient to say, then I won't force you." "But my face was visibly full of loss, and the three young men looked at me like this, all staring at me with big eyes, and they communicated with each other, probably thinking that this was not interesting to me, and finally compromised.
The girl secretly looked at me twice, I pretended not to see it, looked at the scenery outside the window, the girl cautiously came over, patted me on the shoulder and whispered to me: "Sister, don't be upset, I'll tell you." After listening to her words, I knew that my goal had been achieved, and I immediately looked back at her in surprise, and when she saw me looking at her, her face turned red all of a sudden, and then she said to me: "Actually, the groom doesn't like the bride, but they were married when they were young, and the bride's family has a relatively high status in the village, and the groom's family is very poor, and it is impossible to resist. I didn't expect to hear such a thing in the 21st century, it was so unusual, I looked at the girl in surprise and asked, "Won't the bridegroom resist?" After reading so many books and working in a big city, doesn't he know that the freedom to marry is protected? β
The girl opened her mouth, and before she could speak, a boy said to me: "You are too naΓ―ve to look at you, in our closed village, everything is calculated by the elders, and when the bridegroom was young, he was originally married, and if he repented, he would be spurned by the whole village." And if the bridegroom resists, his parents will not have such a good time in the village. β
At this time, another boy said to me mysteriously: "Actually, the groom has resisted, he found a girlfriend outside, and brought it back to the village, and it has reached the point of talking about marriage, but due to the obstruction of the bride's family, and various reasons, he still failed to resist." I asked him, "What is the reason?" Did something happen to him? β
The two men obviously knew what he was talking about, but they were both reluctant to tell him, and in the end, he just said to me: "Anyway, something bad has happened, because of this matter, the bridegroom must marry the bride, and there is no room for resistance." β
I asked, "Do the people in that village really approve of this marriage?" The girl nodded, and immediately said: "It's necessary, if the boy is his duty, there won't be so many things at all, and now in the end, he still has to marry that girl, it's all his fault." β
It turns out that in such a backward village, there really is a so-called "arranged marriage", and there are so many contradictions in this marriage, it sounds like a made-up story. And the most speechless thing is that everyone thinks that it is the groom's fault, and blames him for breaking the rules, but this wedding is unavoidable. I was immediately interested, I wanted to see what kind of backward village it was, and how visually striking it was for a particularly good-looking groom to stand with a particularly ugly bride, and I really wanted to see it.
The antique city is still in no hurry to go back, they should not be able to find a place for a while, and now I will go with them to their village, and then witness this wedding.
I suddenly smiled at the girl and said, "Can I go back to the village with you?" The girl listened to my words, was stunned for a moment, and then stared at me, she looked at me with an excited look on her face, and asked me, "Don't you have to go home?" Can you just get off with us? β
I smiled sweetly at her and explained, "It's okay, I'm here to play, it doesn't matter where I go, and I want to go to see their wedding, didn't you say the wedding would be grand?" The girl listened to my words, as if she was moved by what I said, but she was not good at making her own decisions, so she looked at the two boys for help, I immediately pouted, and said to the two boys: "Please, take me there, I'm really interested." The boy looked at me like this, hesitated for a moment, then nodded decisively, and said to me, "Okay, then you can get off with us when we get to the station." β
Hearing that they agreed, I happily hugged the girl next to me, kissed her on the face twice, and then looked at the boy's stunned appearance, smiled at them, and said, "Thank you." β
They scratched their heads in embarrassment, and then suddenly seemed to remember something, they pushed each other for a long time, and then finally elected the fat boy, the fat boy scratched his head, and then said to me: "After you go to the village, you must not talk too much, and don't say anything to other people, just say that you are a friend we met outside." Why can't I talk more and ask more, it looks like there is some secret, I secretly guessed in my heart, but I still nodded honestly and assured them: "I know, I will do whatever you ask me to do, and I will definitely not talk nonsense." The fat boy was afraid that I would ask something, and when I agreed so readily, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "That's good." β
I happily inquired about the situation in their village, their village is really in a very remote mountain, it is said that no one leads the way, and people from outside can't find it, and the village still retains very ancient customs, and still maintains the habit of male farming and female weaving, a bit like a primitive society. As I listened to them, I was overjoyed, and it seemed that this trip had not been in vain.
When we were chatting happily, the speed of the train suddenly slowed down, and then slowly stopped, and before I could react to what was happening, these young people had already picked up the big bags and small bags, and while preparing to get off the train, they said to me: "Girl, it's time to get off the train." "I didn't expect to arrive so soon.
This is a small station, scattered out, including us, counting on both hands, the girl smiled at me embarrassedly, and said, "Our place is small, and there are relatively few people coming." I smiled and said, "But you're having fun here." Seeing that her luggage is a bit too much, I want to help her carry one, she has been embarrassed to refuse, or I snatched it, I said to her: "It's okay, I have less things, I can help you get it." When she saw that I still helped her carry a piece of luggage, she smiled at me embarrassedly and said, "The road is too far, you won't be able to stand it." β
I thought in my heart how far away I could be, didn't I just get out of the station, and immediately said to her: "It's okay, it's okay, don't worry, I've got it." "Unexpectedly, she wasn't scaring me, what she said was true, after we dragged our luggage out of the station, it was like coming to a wilderness, it is estimated that there are too few people out of the station due to death, and even the taxi is too lazy to come here, I looked at this endless yellow mud road in frustration, and slandered in my heart, maybe there are no taxis here, but since we have decided to let her mention, we must stick to the end, I gritted my teeth, followed behind them, and walked forward step by step. I don't know how long I walked, and finally arrived at a populated place, although it was very broken, but at least I could see some small bungalows, small supermarkets and breakfast stalls and the like, and there was a cement road, which looked much better than the deserted place just now, and the three of them said to me: "Keep up, don't get lost." β
He walked with me inside, watching them take me around a few corners, I was happy that I had finally arrived, but when I saw the place where they had brought me, I looked at them with a puzzled expression, and then swallowed my saliva and spit out a few words from my already dry mouth: "This is?" β
After listening to my question, they looked at me with a smile, wondering why she didn't even know this, and then said to me, "This is the station?" I swallowed, looked at the old tricycles, and said to them, "I can see that this is the station, but we haven't already arrived, so why do we have to take the train?" "Actually, what I thought in my heart was: God, this place is broken enough, where are they going to pull me to, it seems that it is really a deep mountain and old forest, I thought they were exaggerating, this is already my limit.
I hung my head and waited for them to give me a negative answer, saying that they were joking with me, but I didn't expect them to say to me decisively: "We haven't arrived yet, and we still have a few hours to go." That's why I'm going to have to take a car now. With that, they picked a tricycle and carried all the big bags and small bags of things up, and then the three of them climbed up very slowly, looking at me with an enthusiastic face, I looked at the three enthusiastic faces on the car, stunned in place, and struggled in my heart for a while: should I find an excuse to drive away now, or should I just go with them? In the end, I thought that I would die, so I climbed into the car and squeezed into a gap to sit.
As soon as he got into the car, the master said in dialect: "Let's go." "I started the car quickly, and we began to stagger, and when my ass was about to split in half, when the sky changed from darkness to darkness, the car finally stopped, and I saw the scattered lights and the village hidden in the depths of the jungle, and this time, it was really there.
