Chapter 50 Cast a peach and did not repay the plum
Sunset marriage follows tradition, and the customs vary from place to place, but without exception there are many elaborate etiquette. Usually you have to find a matchmaker to ask both parties about their birthdays first, if it is suitable, the man will tidy up his face, and he can pay a gift to visit. According to local conditions, the number and content of the gift money are different, and the form of the woman's reception is not very uniform, but there is no region that uses "drinking can't arouse half interest" as the opening remarks to the future father-in-law, and everyone in the teahouse invariably didn't see this scene, otherwise let him, the old mayor of more than ten years, put his face where to put it.
Such a sentence is too sudden, regardless of whether the mayor of the town regards Yongye as his quasi-son-in-law, Yongye really didn't save him half of face today, so that it took a long time for Xingye and the others to react to what this young master who has never been afraid of big things said, even if he is as smart as Xingxie, he seems a little hectic, and he doesn't know how to round the field, and Mo Lin and Ming Zhe, two well-versed in the world, have already watched their noses and noses, and they have been drinking by themselves.
Fortunately, the mayor did not have a seizure on the spot, but took a sip of tea unhurriedly and quietly looked at Eternal Night. He has always been old-fashioned and serious, but he has no dislike for the eternal night in his heart, but is more and more interested.
Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, the mayor of the town alone pulls his daughter up, even if he is busy with official business, who will treat the child's lifelong events as child's play. In private, the mayor of the town has more or less paid attention to the wind of Eternal Night, although many people have complained about his cruelty, but there is no objection in terms of human quality, especially when he exchanges his body as a hostage for the safety of the whole team, which makes the mayor respect this young man.
"Okay, it's not fun to drink with me, so tell me something you're interested in. The mayor pulled over a bench, sat down upright, and said: "Nan'er is interested in you, I also talked about marriage before, the words of the matchmaker, the order of your parents, I don't object to your affection, I don't know what Ling Zun Lingtang thinks of Nan'er?"
In Ruonan's heart, his father has always been a person who thinks that everything is inferior, only a person who is high in reading, and he is not very interested in martial arts and even cultivators, and he thought that his father was here today to be the ruthless person who broke up the mandarin ducks, but he didn't expect him to retreat again and again, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed and smiling.
Yongye still didn't react, but said flatly: "I was adopted by my teacher since I was a child, and I have no father or mother, and the mayor of the town asked me to ask my parents for their opinions, but I really don't know where to start. ”
The poignant story hidden behind these few words can only be fully appreciated by the star evil who grew up with the eternal night.
Xing Xie couldn't bear to continue such a conversation, he raised his hand to the mayor and bowed, and said, "Most of our senior brothers are orphans without father and mother, and they have lived in Chishui City with their teachers since they were children. Now that we are reunited, it is estimated that we will be able to return home in one day at most, but the distance is long, and I ask the mayor to wait patiently for a few days. ”
On the one hand, the mayor knew that he was speechless, and on the other hand, he admired the reasonable young man Xingxie very much, and the expression on his face softened, he nodded and said: "That's fine, they are all children, it's really not easy to come out and wander, I'll get you some coils later, don't be too save on the road." ”
"Take me with you. ”
Ruonan, who knew the life of Eternal Night and lost his mother since childhood, had a sour nose and a colicing pain in his heart. Her soft and timid voice made the noisy teahouse instantly quiet, and she had to pass through the door before she got married, although it was not a natural thing, but after all, it was not very compliant, and it was not a beautiful thing to spread it. Besides, there are not many people who read in the town, and Ruonan, who is well-read in everyone's minds, has become a benchmark for girls' family etiquette, righteousness and shame, and she must not set this precedent.
The mayor's face turned pale, and he reprimanded: "What nonsense, give me home!"
Ruonan didn't seem to hear her father's words, her watery eyes stared at Yongye, and said seriously: "Your parents are gone, but I am still with you, I will go back with you to meet your teacher, I promise to satisfy him, I will cook, wash clothes, and plant flowers......"
"The third senior brother's cheap is much easier to raise than the senior sister, and if you trick her back, the teacher will laugh and blossom. The little junior brother muttered in a low voice, and when Ming Zhe next to him heard this, he sprayed the tea all over the ground without taking a breath.
Yongye's face was better than the mayor of the town at this time, and he couldn't see where to go, he raised his hand and smashed it on the little junior brother's head with a violent shudder, and said coldly: "If you can't speak, just shut your mouth, no one will treat you as a dumb person." ”
Then he turned his back to Ruonan and drank the wine on the table.
"Ruonan girl, if I'm not mistaken, it's only been more than a month since the last time you swore an alliance with others, and I rescued you back, and now I'm here to say these words to me again, if I come back later, if you want to go back together, I'm afraid it will be that Baizhu Gongzi." ”
Yongye's words made Ruonan speechless, everyone knew that this lady was very affectionate, but according to Yongye's words, she couldn't find anything wrong, so she didn't even know where to start with persuasion, and could only watch the tears of the girl with tears rolling in her eyes again.
"I'm a soldier, and my whole mind is spent on surviving the battlefield, and I'm not interested in what you're talking about. It's my duty to save you, and everything I do along the way is just to calm your emotions, and if this makes you have other thoughts, I still hope you dispel those thoughts and do it yourself. ”
Hearing Yongye's words, Ruonan, who was already very thin, turned pale, as if he had a serious illness, and leaned on his father's arms in despair.
The mayor of the town sighed, took Ruonan's hand distressedly, and said softly: "The words of the Centurion of the Eternal Night are not coarse, it is a matter of mutual affection, others have no intention of you, how can you mess around, go home with your father." ”
"I don't believe it, didn't you ever think about ......it?"
"Nope. Before Ruonan could say the next words, Yongye interrupted him and continued, "If there is nothing else to do, please go back." ”
"You ......" A hint of blush appeared on Ruonan's pale face, which turned out to be a sign of qi and blood surging.
"Go back, go back. The mayor of the town took Ruonan, couldn't bear to stay here for a long time, said goodbye to everyone, and left in a hurry.
After Mayor and Ruonan walked away, Mo Lin glanced cautiously at Yongye.
"I thought it would be a good thing, but I didn't expect you to react like this. Our old bones are still not fully self-contained, what are you young man worried about? Afraid of dying on the battlefield? Won't all the soldiers in the world have to be beaten as a single? It can be seen that that girl has a very high status in your heart, so why bother hurting others and yourself in this way. ”
"Some things are too beautiful when you get them, and they are even more cruel when you lose them. Eternal Night shook his wine glass, looking at the strange and familiar face reflected in the wine, very upset.
"You have a point. Mo Lin smiled and did not continue on this topic.
"Since we're back from Cangyang, let's talk about the follow-up. As we all know, the three murderers of Cangyang restrain each other, and now that the marshal has taken action to cause Chaohu to rout, breaking this balance, it is almost a sure thing that the other two forbidden places will take action. The Chaos Domain is too far away, so let's not mention it for the time being, I'm afraid that the Great Enlightenment Realm adjacent to Greystone City will have some big moves. ”
"Shayang Town. Ming Zhe reacted quickly and blurted out a place name.
"Not bad. Mo Lin said approvingly, "Shayang Town is the throat of Sunset and the Great Enlightenment Realm, and now that the Yu General Fujinomiya, who was originally in charge of the deployment, has left Cangyang, it is not ruled out that he will defect to the butcher of the Great Enlightenment Realm." The matter of border defense affects the whole body, and I will rush back to Tianlang County immediately after eating this meal, on the one hand, I will start to rearrange the defense line, and on the other hand, I will go to the capital to report the matter, and it is estimated that it will take some time. Before that, just in case, I will first order to send five more thousand-man teams to Shayang, four thousand-man commanders, the extra thousand-man team will be served by Yongye as the thousand-commander, and Ming Zhe will be the general to manage all Shayang's military affairs, you two are ready to prepare, the sooner you leave, the better. ”
"Yes!" Ming Zhe and Yongye clenched their fists to receive their orders, and the soldier's character was undoubtedly revealed. Everyone in the teahouse was shocked when they heard that Mo Lin could transfer and appoint partial generals at will, they had never seen such a character once in their lives.
How could Mo Lin not notice the changes in the emotions of the people around him, he got up quite proudly and solemnly hugged his fists, trying to get rid of the image of the old farmer, and saluted back: "The waves are gradually rising, let the two of you travel for a long time, it's hard work, please." ”
"Where the responsibility lies, how hard it is. Ming Zhe and Yongye replied in unison, which can be said to have given enough face.
"This is like a lower official, putting on a stinky face every day, I don't know if I think you are my chief. Mo Lin looked at Eternal Night with satisfaction, and smiled and punched him in the chest.
"Then the third senior brother won't go back with us?" the little junior brother blinked and looked at the star evil.
"State affairs are greater than family affairs, and Senior Brother Yongye has more important things. Xing Xie found that the little junior brother's hairband was crooked, and carefully straightened it for him.
"I really hope that there will be more such state affairs, the better. The little junior brother sighed sadly, and Xingxie's hand froze there.
So a green tendon erupted from the forehead of the eternal night inexplicably.
Mo Lin suddenly remembered something, and said to Xingxie, "My evil beast caused you trouble before. ”
Xing Xie was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Mo Lin was talking about the king of the shark in Tianlang County, but he was a little embarrassed and said: "Don't blame the general, it's me who acted recklessly." ”
"I was going to save you myself that day, but someone was one step ahead of me, so I didn't make a move, and I haven't been able to apologize to you. ”
"Where is the general, he has already saved the lives of my brothers and sisters, so why apologize. ”
"Knowing that the power is invincible, or without hesitation, living to death, it is great courage, I save you, and I will save the future of the twilight country. Mo Lin was relieved: "Even Mr. Xianying is amazed by the young man, your name is destined to shine in the capital." ”
"The general is overrated. "The Star Evil salutes and thanks.
"To be able to cultivate a senior brother like you, I really want to see where your teacher is sacred when I have the opportunity. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Lin remembered that there was still half a bowl of rice that he hadn't finished, so he hurriedly left the scrambled eggs with leeks, pulled the rice grains clean, and said vaguely: "Anyway, you have to come to the capital, let's see you there." ”
The capital is the city of the Apocalypse.
Announced by the heavens, it came into being, and the star evil suddenly had a lot of awe and expectations for that ancient city that he had never met.
