Chapter 2 Robbery on the way to welcome relatives

By the next day, Xishun was woken up early to work, and he almost only slept for two hours due to last night's insomnia. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info dragged his tired body, but he didn't dare to slack off.

At this time, the Zheng Mansion was not lively, on the one hand, the master of the Zheng family was busy taking care of the guests who came to congratulate, and the subordinates were busy with their own affairs. The bride and several aunts and maids dressed up in the room. Everything is ready, waiting for the groom to come and greet him.

At eight or nine o'clock, there was a sound of gongs and drums outside, and the bridegroom was coming. Xishun followed to see the excitement, worthy of a big family to marry a wife, the groom is very stylish, flags, gongs, umbrellas, fans are readily available. The queue is ordered, the groom dismounts, and the sedan chair is placed in front of the door. The children stopped the sedan chair and did not let them in, and the bride also delayed the time of the sedan chair according to the custom, commonly known as "sedan chair". After the "three invitations" and "four clearances" of the relatives, the young lady wore a red wedding dress, a phoenix crown, and a red hijab and walked out of the boudoir. When she got on the sedan chair, the second aunt fed the lady a mouthful of food, which meant that she did not forget the grace of nurturing. The mother and daughter cried loudly, as the saying goes: "The mother's family cries loudly, and the mother-in-law's family is rising." "Don't say that the mother's family is reluctant, even a subordinate like Xishun will inevitably be a little touched when he sees that his young lady is about to leave the Zheng Mansion. In short, it's still a big day, and it's still a happy day.

Miss can not move after sitting on the sedan chair, put only a copper fire under the seat, the internal combustion charcoal fire greets relatives and velvet incense, with the sedan chair needs two young men to move forward slowly, weighing the sedan chair. When the sedan chair arrives at the man's house, the groom's family will arrange for someone to receive it. At this time, the sedan chair presser lit a bag of cigarettes from the fire and sucked back one by one, saying "receiving incense".

After all the rules were arranged, the big team went to the man's house.

Hee Shun also entered one of the processions in accordance with local rules, escorting the dowry to follow the procession. The route of the wedding team to pick up the bride is also very particular, first of all, you can't go back, and the road to marry and the road back can not be repeated. In addition, you should choose a long road, not a road that is closer to the bride's house and the groom's house.

The groom's family had already prepared and returned according to the planned route, but after all, the two families were a little far away, so they had to wait until noon, and they could not miss the time of worship, and they did not dare to rest despite fatigue.

In front of a hillside, an hour away from the destination, and bam! Bang! Bang! Suddenly, there was a burst of gunfire in the mountain, and the elders shouted that the big thing might not meet the ringing horses, and sure enough, the sound of horses' hooves and gunshots around instantly drowned out the sound of the wedding ceremony, and a large group of bandits surrounded the whole team in minutes.

Even if such a large family encounters bandits, there is nothing they can do, and everyone can only squat in one place when they are pointed at gunpoint. After all quieted down, a bald bandit leader swaggered out, uncle, I am very lucky today, I met such a festive goods, the small ones took away all the things that could be taken away from the carriage behind. After that, several bandits dragged out the various gifts and dowries carried by the entire welcoming procession. At this time, an elderly man from the man's family walked up to the bald head and said respectfully, this lord, you came here today to make a fortune, we definitely can't let you go empty-handed, since the goods you brought have been taken away by you, let us go, today is also the day of great joy for our son-in-law and Miss Zheng's family, you can do it and thank you again another day.

The bandit leader shook his gun, "It turned out to be Miss Zheng's family, I heard that Miss Zheng is a water spirit, and it just so happens that I also lack a lady in the village, what do you think of the little ones?" Aha..."A group of small bandits cheered and kept coaxing. At this time, Xishun looked at the sedan chair where the young lady was sitting and knew that the young lady was also afraid to come out now, but there was no way, and Xishun could only squat in front of the bandits. At this time, the groom could no longer hold back and said loudly: "Bold bandit, do you know whose son I am?" How can it be up to you..."Bang! Before he could finish speaking, a bullet pierced the groom's forehead and fell to the ground, and the frightened maids screamed again and again.

The bandit leader wiped his bald head with a gun, damn it, Lao Tzu hates that others hang my appetite the most, and a stinky boy dares to come and drink Uncle Lingben. Everyone was even more frightened, and the elder who spoke just now didn't dare to say anything more. The bandit leader walked to the young lady's sedan chair, opened the sedan curtain with a gun, and stretched out his head to look inside. What are you doing with the little beauty, your wishful husband doesn't have the blessing to marry you. As he spoke, he removed the young lady's red hijab. At this time, the young lady already had ruddy eyes, and tears and tears were squandering her makeup. It's not a pity to look at.

The bandit has no sympathy, and the more you seem to pity him, the happier he is. The bald man just wanted to pull the young lady out, but before he could reach out the young lady, he fainted, and the bald man asked the two people to carry the young lady to the horse. The rampant bandits didn't want to cause too much trouble, after all, it was noon, and they rode away on horseback. Only the chaotic procession and the body of the groom were left.

The rest of the people didn't know what to do, the groom died, the bride was robbed by the bandits, and neither family could explain it. At this time, it was the elder who spoke first, "There is such a big thing, it is difficult for us to explain to the two families, but we can't just run away, we will go back and tell the master first, and you will also rush to the Zheng family to tell the master Zheng to see if the two families can rescue Miss Zheng, and the rest will be left to fate." After saying that, he told the two bold men to carry up the body of the bridegroom and continue to walk forward, and they hurriedly stumbled back.

"Master, master, it's not good!" Mr. Zheng saw Xishun running back in a panic, because the guests were still eating, Mr. Zheng hurriedly took Xishun to the backyard and asked, "Xishun, why did you run back, what happened?" ”

"Miss... Miss..."

"What's wrong with Miss, you said?"

"Miss was robbed by bandits... The bridegroom was also killed..."

After speaking, Xishun pounced on the ground and cried. The old man also sat directly on the ground, and the second aunt fainted on the spot. Oh my God, how did this kind of thing happen to my Zheng family, Master Zheng was very sad and angry, but there were still so many guests outside, because of the situation, if everyone knew about it, not only the reputation of the young lady but also the reputation of the entire Zheng family. Master Zheng told Xishun not to talk about the matter for the time being, and waited until everyone dispersed to figure out a way. Xishun was just about to leave, but was suddenly stopped by Master Zheng, "Xishun, why is there a red cloth in your trousers?" Xishun looked down and couldn't help but wonder, sure enough, a small piece of red cloth was exposed, Xishun pulled it with his hand, oh my God, isn't this Miss's red head cover! How did you run into Heeshun's trouser legs!

Heeshun's frightened feet trembled, and he quickly threw out the red hijab. The third aunt picked it up and looked at it, that's right, the red hijab I bought for Miss, it's Miss's, Xishun What's going on? Where did Xishun know what was going on, he recalled the scene at that time, the red hijab was torn off by the bandit leader, and then it was still on the ground, and no one cared when he left. Could it be that the red hijab got into Xishun's trousers with his own long feet? Hee Soon felt more and more that something was wrong, so he told him about the things that happened when he carried the wedding dress and saw the young lady's house in the middle of the night.

"Xishun must be in the Arabian Nights, how can there be such a thing, I guess most of Miss's affairs have something to do with him!" The third aunt was too excited, and Xishun was also full of grievances, "Master, madam, it's a little truth." ”

The old man knew that Xishun was a person, and it didn't look like he was lying, so he was a little calmer at this time. Since the young lady was robbed by the bandits, at least there is still a possibility of survival, the old Qin family (the groom's family) is estimated to bring someone to discuss with me later, and the guests are almost drunk with wine, after I send them away one by one, this matter has to be discussed in the long run, don't startle the snake. The guests were still happy, completely unaware of what was happening, and did not forget to congratulate Master Zheng when they left.

At this time, it was already dusk, and the Qin family really came to the Zheng family crying. This matter is no wonder to the two families, the way to welcome relatives is originally the habit of the locals, plus the Qin and Zheng families are both sensible big families, so there is no dispute, the two families began to discuss how to avenge the groom and bring the bride back.

The two families are also unsure of their attention for a while, no matter how rich they are, they are just businessmen, how to confront this group of bad bandits, some people suggest reporting to the official, some people suggest using money to get people first, just when everyone is at a loss, suddenly there is a hurried voice from the housekeeper outside the door.

"Miss... Miss is back! “
