Chapter 305: But Shichiro?
There was also laughter and laughter in the main room, and the prince Chen Xun and his wife Xu were busy greeting guests. Chen Ying accompanied the Li family to see them, and picked an inconsequential position to sit, and the Shen family came over and pulled the Li family to talk affectionately.
Chen Ying was surprised at first, but then relieved.
Shen was suddenly so enthusiastic, not because she changed sex, but because of face.
This room full of greeting guests, all of them were powerful people, and when Shen sat inside, almost no one was willing to take care of her. Fortunately, the Li family came at this time, this second-room daughter-in-law is now even worse than her Shen family, she pulled the Li family to speak, just wanted a foil.
Shen's little caution can't hide it from Li.
It's just that she doesn't like to compete over these meaningless things, and she has a person who is noisy in her ears, but she can also block a lot of strange eyes, so she was pulled by the other party, with a quiet smile on her face, and she just made a decoration, and she gestured to Chen Ying.
Chen Ying glanced at Shen helplessly, nodded, and went outside with Zhishi.
Most of the guests were gathered in the room, and there were not many people outside the door, Chen Ying stood silently under the porch, thinking that when the bride entered the door and completed the procedure, she would definitely ask Li to come out for a walk, so as not to make her depressed.
Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly saw Luo's mother hurriedly coming over, and her expression seemed to be burnt.
Chen Ying immediately beckoned: "Mom is here." ”
When Mother Luo heard this, her face immediately relaxed, and she stepped forward quickly and said in a low voice: "The slave is about to talk to the girl." As he spoke, he looked left and right: "Madame is not here, is she?" ”
As soon as she saw her expression, Chen Ying's heart was raised, and she said, "Mother is talking inside, you can tell me something." ”
As she spoke, she took a few more steps deeper into the corridor, far away from the crowd.
Mother Luo followed and whispered, "That's what the slave means." As he spoke, he leaned forward and said in a softer voice:
"There is something I want to talk to the girl, the fourth master took the master to the flowing water seat outside, and looked as if he wanted to avoid talking to people, and the slave didn't dare to specialize, so he came back and forth."
So that's what happened.
Chen Ying's heart was slightly calm.
Chen Liqi, she has never seen through it, and every time she looks at it, it is always like watching flowers in the fog.
From another point of view, although he has reservations about this person, this person does not seem to have any ill will towards them.
At this point, Chen Ying trusts her instincts.
In addition, the monk of Xiangguo Temple, Chen Ying later asked Pei Shu to help investigate, and it turned out that Chen Li was not lying, the monk was indeed good at medical skills, and he cured many people, and he did not find out that he had any private affairs with Chen Li.
It's just that in the end, it's still a little uneasy.
After frowning for a moment, Chen Ying said, "In this case, I'll go ahead and take a look, and my mother will go inside to accompany my mother." ”
Although Li's body is no longer in trouble, she has too many things to do, and Chen Ying really doesn't want her to be disturbed by too many chores.
Mother Luo understood, bowed down and said, "Girl, go, the slave knows how to do it." ”
For a while, Luo's mother went, and Chen Ying called the big seal and the small seal again, and told them: "Good students stay here to listen to it, if my mother asks, say that I will go out and scatter, and I will come back soon." ”
The two of them should tie their hands, and Chen Ying took Zhishi to turn out of the courtyard door along the other side of the verandah and went straight ahead.
The flowing water seat is set up outside the second gate, and there are eighteen tables set up, and most of the people who sit at the table are all kinds of people who come to hear the wind.
This is also a practice in the capital, and it is also a kind of charity in disguise.
For example, when a person with a head and face holds a happy event, there will always be a few tables of flowing water, and the people who go to the banquet are not limited to high and low, just dress neatly, and say two auspicious words after entering the door, and then they can sit down and eat a meal with good wine and meat, even if they are beggars and scoundrels.
When Chen Ying arrived at the second gate, the guests gathered on the flowing water seat, and the eighteen tables were full, the aroma of wine and vegetables wafted in the hot wind, and the sound of guessing boxing came and went, so it was not lively.
Chen Ying only glanced at the crowd, and then saw Chen Shao and Chen Li.
The two of them are richly dressed and have an extraordinary atmosphere, and they stand out from the crowd, and they are very eye-catching in this group.
Seeing Chen Shao standing there dignified, talking to Chen Li, Chen Ying's heart fell back into his stomach, and he was about to tell a little guy to pass the word, when suddenly, a voice sounded in the crowd:
"You...... Is it Shichiro? ”
The clear and bright voice, with a strong penetrating power, actually suppressed the hustle and bustle of the courtyard.
Chen Ying paused, and followed the sound.
A person walked out of the banquet slowly, but it was a woman with a dusty face, and her facial features were still delicate, but her skin was rough and her complexion was slightly dark.
At this moment, she looked directly at Chen Shao not far away, her expression was stunned, and her eyes were intertwined with surprise and tenderness.
There was an eerie silence that spread from the table she was on.
Chen Shao looked at her directly, his eyes were very unfamiliar.
"Shichiro, don't you know me?" The woman spoke again, staggering as if to step forward, but she might as well go limp, and fell backwards, but was fortunately held back by a man of medium stature.
The man had a messy beard, a mole the size of a copper coin on the side of his nose, a rough face, and a half-worn kudzu robe.
"Big sister, be careful." He helped the woman to stand firmly, leaned over and picked up a child about five or six years old from the ground, whose whole body was wrapped in a thick cloak, and looked at Chen Shao.
"Brother-in-law, don't you recognize us? I'm a pillar! He said, his slightly broken voice, as poignant as a night owl: "Even if you don't recognize me, you should recognize Brother Tuan'er, right?" ”
He hugged the child tightly and looked at Chen Shao expectantly.
"What nonsense are you talking about?!" Chen Li finally sobered up from shock at this time, and his face turned pale: "This is my second brother, where did you come from?" ”
"He is Liu Qilang!" The man who called himself a pillar immediately replied, staring straight at Chen Shao, his eyes began to redden: "Brother-in-law, it turns out that what you said is true. You keep saying that you don't remember your background, and I used to lie to me, but it turned out to be true. ”
He looked at Chen Li, then at Chen Shao, and smiled miserably: "Yes, yes, brother-in-law, you are a nobleman, my sister...... We...... Originally...... Can't climb high. ”
At this point, he puffed up his chest and said in a trembling voice: "Liu Qilang, it doesn't matter if you don't recognize me, but my sister is the wife you are marrying, and Brother Tuan is your flesh and blood, how can you just leave them alone?" Are you still not human? ”
"Shut up!"
Chen Li was so angry that his eyes were on fire, and he opened his mouth to call someone, but he didn't want the man to interrupt him: "I don't care so much!" He roared, hugging the child called Brother Tuan'er tightly, grief and indignation: "Heaven is clear, I don't believe that no one is in charge of us." Then he picked up the woman and was about to leave, but he didn't want to be forced to break free.
She snatched Brother Tuan from the man's arms, turned her head to look at Chen Shao, with a thin layer of tears in her eyes, and her expression was sad: "Qilang, you ...... Do you really not recognize you as a wife? ”
Tears ran down her face, dripping the placket of her clothes.
Chen Shao looked at her blankly, his eyes still unfamiliar.
"I don't believe it...... I'm not sure you'll remember. The woman sat down on the ground with her legs limp, and muttered with tears in her eyes, "I don't believe it...... I don't believe it...... Shichiro...... I don't believe you've forgotten me...... I don't believe ......"
The voice rang faintly, hovering through the dead courtyard.
No one spoke, not even the sound of breathing disappeared, but the sun poured down, pale and cold, illuminating everyone's face like a ghost, and in this midsummer scene, it actually made people feel a little chilly.
