**
The old man of Wubao had already shouted and ran to the village, and the Wei family and I were delayed because we were watching the chickens and dogs. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Not far away, a woman with a basket walked over, and I saw that she was familiar, not familiar, but recognized! It's the widow who bought the antipyretic patch last night.
Getting closer and closer, I opened my mouth to say hello: "Sister, is your child better?" ā
The woman stopped and looked at me, "Oh, it's you, big brother, why are you here?" The woman stroked her bangs as she spoke.
I wondered, why couldn't I come? So I asked, "What's wrong, big sister?" I'm looking for someone, where are you going? ā
The widow immediately turned red, wiped away her tears, and said, "My child passed out just as I went to buy the antipyretic patch and never woke up." The widow choked up and said, "The great immortal of the village asked me to bury the child in the morning, and borrowed one of the tombs of others to bury them in the ground, but unfortunately I can't bury them with the child and his father." ā
"I'm sorry, big sister, I shouldn't have asked, it made you sad." I said apologetically, thinking that there was still someone to borrow the tomb, so I asked, "Where is the burial, eldest sister?" ā
The widow sobbed and said: "Alas, everything is fate, not at all, Daxian said that the tomb was originally the old man of the five guarantees, which Cheng wanted the old man of the five guarantees to come back to life, and he rushed to death my child, and gave Yangshou to the old madman, so the tomb is in Balipo, I am going to send paper money to the child now, you want to find someone then you go into the village." The widow said goodbye to me, and left in a hurry, and I walked with the Wei family to the village.
As I was walking, I saw a few people running over at the opposite corner, the leader was actually the old man of Wubao, the old man of Wubao pointed to me and the Wei family while walking, and the most prominent old man in the group of people followed closely behind was holding a cane, with a gray beard and high cheekbones, he was wearing a loose yellow jacket, and his cropped pants were also yellow, but the crutches were useless, and he pointed at me and the Wei family in his hand, "Don't let them run!" ā
The old man in the yellow coat shouted and commanded a group of people to surround me and the Wei family, the old man in the yellow jacket swept the air with his cane, and a spicy and pungent smell came, and the crutches didn't touch me, and I fainted.
When I woke up, I looked at the window, it was daytime, but I was stunned by the scene in the room.
White window paper, snow-white walls, red curtains, and a big red character reflected on the window.
I struggled to sit up, rubbed my eyes, and a familiar figure appeared in front of me, "You! I screamed and woke up completely.
"Ah Zheng, take a good rest." She said and covered my mouth with her hand, I didn't expect it to be her, there was a low voice outside the room, she covered my mouth and looked back at the door, I stopped talking, and my head was desperately thinking that this voice was like the big fairy with a cane. She got up and went to close the door, and the houses in the countryside were divided into two wings, with the living room in the middle.
I moved and felt like I didn't have any strength in my body, did she save me? Is this her room? Why is she wearing a red wedding dress? What the hell is wrong with me? I turned my head to look, I slept on the wall of the big bed, and there was a pillow next to it, the pillow was embroidered with a picture of mandarin ducks playing in the water, and the quilt was also red, scarlet as blood.
She walked over, "Ah Zheng, don't be afraid, I will save you." ā
She said and helped me cover the quilt on my body, at this time I felt the cold on my body, obviously it is September, except for the morning is a little cool, it is not cold at all, but why am I cold? Is it a fever? I reached out and touched my forehead, but there was no fever, I retracted my hand into the bed, and suddenly I sat up with a spirit!
I was only wearing a pair of underwear in the bed, and the clothes on my body were gone, oh no, did I lose my body? Inexplicably pulled to be the groom? I was about to scream when she covered my mouth again and whispered in my ear, "Ah Zheng, can you lie down first?" I'll explain it to you later. She said and pointed to the doorway, meaning that the wall had ears.
I nodded, and she let go of her hand, and the cold made me shrink into the covers, and just looked at her quietly. What's going on here? I muttered in my heart, I just had a relationship with her, and she helped me introduce jobs and lend me money when we met for the first time yesterday, and it was her, Tong Shan. Looking at the festive appearance of the room, I secretly suspect that we are now fated to have a share!
Looking at Tong Shan, Tong Shan looked at me with an embarrassed and anxious face and muttered quietly: "I didn't want to hurt you, but why did you come so soon?" Was this meant to be......"
The sound of the living room outside the door seemed to come from nothing, I could only lie quietly and wait, Tong Shan lay down in her clothes, she was wearing a soft veil, touching her only felt graceful, she hugged my neck and whispered: "Ah Zheng, I am already your person, but don't worry, I will not force you to marry me." ā
As expected, I slept and became a groom for some reason! It's okay to think about it, aren't the parents at home still waiting for themselves to get married and hold their grandchildren? Tong Shan is so beautiful, although she has no feelings, but don't most of us in the countryside get married on a blind date? It's normal to get married first and then fall in love, not to mention that I met such a big beauty, the more I thought about it, the more excited I became, I hugged Tong Shan tightly, Tong Shan's body was cold and made me tremble and immediately let go of her, I was about to ask her how cold it was when the voice outside the door seemed to go out of the door farther and farther away, Tong Shan then began to explain to me with tears in her eyes.
"Ah Zheng, you shouldn't have come, but you came, although I don't know why you came, maybe someone lured you to come, or maybe this is your doom." I didn't ask anything more, I didn't know how to ask, and I didn't know what to ask, Tong Shan continued: "Yesterday Uncle Er brought you to the two of us to get married, do you know why? It's because it's waiting for you to show up. ā
"Uncle Er? Who is Uncle Er? Why did he harm me? I looked at Tong Shan suspiciously, Tong Shan shook her head and said, "No, maybe no one wants to harm you, this may be your life." ā
When I asked me what happened to my life, Tong Shan did not answer directly, but told me a story.
The appearance of the Red Guards destroyed the buildings of Jiulipo, and before that, I don't know how long it was, the business of the Jiulipo trading house was taken care of by the old man of Wubao in the village in an orderly manner, and I don't know why the old man of Wubao did not get married and lived alone until he grew old, and no one knew his actual age. Since the Jiulipo business and trade house was demolished, he has been crazy, and then Tong Shan's father, because of the prestige in this area of the fame that made the business house re-planned to open, but since the opening of the shortly after, Tong Shan's parents have said goodbye, so they separated, grandma never told her the specific reason, until Tong Shan herself felt that she was more and more different from ordinary people, grandma told Tong Shan to let her wait, wait for a person named Pang Shouzheng!
The story sounded a bit nonsense to me, I asked why I was waiting for me to appear, why it was me, Tong Shan said: "Ah Zheng, I'm afraid of scaring you......"
