Chapter 6: The Fox Marries a Girl
Back at Chen's house, Chen and He Wenshun were already able to sit up, and He Wenshun saw Sui Lian'er coming over and happily told his mother.
"Mother, it's my sister, my sister is back."
As he spoke, he got out of bed.
Chen hurriedly stepped forward to hold on.
He Wenwu also followed closely, and for a while, Chen could take care of the left side, but not the right side.
Two and a half young men, like loaches, came out, tilted their heads, and called happily: "Sister." ”
He Wenshun was a little shy, his eyes were moist and shiny, his cheeks were red, and his voice was soft and glutinous.
"Sister, thank you for saving me and my mother, I listened to my cousin."
Chen also hurriedly stepped forward to salute and thank you.
Sui Lian'er hurriedly held on.
"You're welcome, it's not a big deal." Now there is one thing that needs to be asked for help from the Chen family. ”
Chen hurriedly said, "Please speak." I'll definitely help. ”
Sui Lian'er said to Chen Dadao: "I also want to ask you to go to the government office to inform the county order that the water mangcao has appeared, and let them quickly send someone to clean it up." ”
Chen Da knew the harm of water mangweed, and he didn't dare to delay, so he went immediately.
Chen took He Wenshun to welcome Sui Lian'er to the hall and sit down.
Only then did he say in annoyance: "If I had known, I shouldn't have been greedy for cheap." ”
It turned out that Chen took He Wenshun all the way to the county seat, and he didn't feel that his mouth was dry, and he was about to find someone to drink water under an excuse.
I saw a tea stall not far away with a free shop.
I thought that the tea stall was on the side of the road, and I didn't need any money.
took He Wenshun and passed.
The mother-in-law of the tea stall called for a long time but did not respond.
She simply served two bowls by herself and gave He Wenshun a bowl, although the taste was fishy and unpleasant, but when she thought of it for free, she still drank it patiently.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she arrived at Chen's house, she had unbearable abdominal pain, if it weren't for the two clay figures sent by Sui Lian'er, she and her son would have been killed.
Sui Lian'er listened quietly for a moment.
Finally, he took the opportunity to educate the He brothers. "It can be seen that free is not necessarily really free, but it still makes sense. In the future, you two must remember not to be greedy for cheap, be careful of being greedy for cheap, and suffer a big loss. ”
Chen covered his face in shame, and he had no face to see anyone.
The He brothers hurriedly got off the kang, stood still, and said respectfully: "Yes." ”
The little boy stood like a small tree, a serious salute, how to look at it, how to celebrate.
The happy old lady of the Chen family hugged her in her arms and kept saying: "Good children, they are all good children, my little heart." ”
The brothers' hair buns were all messed up, and their dignity and seriousness were gone, leaving only their faces full of lovelessness to accept the caresses of their elders.
Sui Lianer laughed in his heart and took the opportunity to leave.
"There's still something to deal with, so let's leave."
Chen hurried to leave the guests, and the old lady was also busy staying enthusiastically.
Sui Lianer said: "Thank you for your kindness, but I took the post and went to a wedding, and the time is uncertain, so it's not good to stay longer, so I will leave." ”
After speaking, he left under the firm gaze of the Chen family.
He Wenwu's eyes rolled, and he slipped out while no one was paying attention.
Sui Lian'er walked under a hibiscus tree and whispered.
"We have recently come to a lustful man here, go, find your wife, and teach him a lesson."
The hibiscus tree shook its leaves, as if in reply.
Sui Lian'er was about to leave.
A pair of small hands reached out from under the hibiscus tree, clutching her clothes tightly.
Take a closer look.
Laughed.
"What are you doing here? Hurry back. ”
He Wenwu stubbornly refused.
"I don't, I'm going with you, you take me out, you're responsible."
Sui Lian'er snorted.
This little cub is quite bold.
"Do you know what I'm going to do. Just follow, be careful that I sell you. ”
He Wenwu is not afraid.
"I know that you are a good person, so you will not sell me, and besides, if you sell me, you will never be able to eat osmanthus cake again."
Sui Lian'er smiled.
"My mouth is quite sweet, how do you know I'm a good person."
He Wenwu replied seriously: "You saved the grandfather who sold pears, and you also saved your cousin, you are a good person." ”
Sui Lian'er blinked his eyes and touched his head with a smile.
"Okay, seeing that you boast such a sincere face, I'll take you there."
He Wenwu showed an embarrassed look.
Sui Lian'er asked curiously: "Why ...... it hasn't come out yet."
He Wenwu grabbed He Wenshun from behind.
The two brothers laughed more obediently than the other.
Sui Lian'er smiled angrily and patted his forehead gently.
"It's really ......, forget it, have you told your family?"
He Wenwu looked at the sky and the earth and did not speak.
He Wenshun lowered his head and whispered, "I left a note." ”
Sui Lianer said: "As far as the three melons and two dates you know, you can write it clearly, forget it, I'll take you back." ”
One in one hand, when he took the brothers back, the Chen family was looking for the brothers all over the yard.
Chen was holding a note, which was messy, even with writing and drawing, he couldn't read it at all, and he trembled with anger, which would see the brothers.
Without saying a word, he raised his hand and was about to beat the brothers.
Sui Lian'er hurriedly stepped forward to stop him and put the blame on himself.
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault, I forgot that children are curious, I told them about the customs of the wedding two days ago, and I kept it in my heart, and I suddenly knew that I was going to the wedding, but it aroused that interest ......."
After talking about it for a while, he finally made Chen angry and agreed that Sui Lianer would take the brothers out.
Chen grabbed the brothers and gave them an instruct.
The brothers kept nodding their heads, yes.
finally came out, and they all breathed a long sigh of relief.
Eye to eye, they immediately smiled, and some of the other party were a little scared by Chen's nagging, but when they thought of going to the wedding, they were all excited.
Sui Lian'er lowered his head and commanded the brothers.
"Hold on."
He Wenwu skillfully grasped Sui Lian'er, and He Wenshun was learned.
Soon, the three of them came to a dilapidated courtyard where long sedges flooded the road, and mugwort was as abundant as hemp.
Looking up, it was just when the moon had just risen, and the dim moonlight just shone out the courtyard and the sleeping scholar lying on the stone.
He Wenwu volunteered to wake up the scholar.
The scholar looked at the three of them with misty eyes.
He Wenwu asked familiarly: "Who are you, are you also here to attend the wedding?" ”
The scholar's eyes gradually cleared: "Wedding? ”
He Wenshun said: "Yes, we came to the wedding with my sister." ”
As he was talking, a man in green clothes walked up with a lotus lantern.
Suddenly found the scholar, and was taken aback and said to the people behind.
"I didn't see an adult, I saw only a living person."
The man below asked, "Who is it?" ”
The man in Tsing Yi replied: "I don't know." ”
In an instant, an old man came up and saw Sui Lian'er with two children and a scholar.
After careful identification, he said, "I've seen adults." Thank you for coming to the wedding. ”
He said to the scholar again: "I didn't expect to see Yin Shangshu today, Yin Shangshu came and was shining." Please have a glass of wine inside. ”
Duke Yin hurriedly stepped forward to return the salute and said, "I didn't know that there was a big happy event in your mansion tonight, and I am ashamed that there was no congratulatory gift." ”
The old man hurriedly said: "The noble man is here to suppress the evil gods, and he is already very lucky." If you stay for a moment, the little old man's family will feel honored. ”
Gong Yin agreed, He Wenwu came next to him and asked suspiciously, "Why does he call you Yin Shangshu?" ”
Yin Gong spread his hands, indicating that he didn't know either.
He Wenwu looked at him with disdain, ran to Sui Lian'er's side again, and followed obediently.
Sui Lian'er took the brothers and followed behind the old man.
He Wenwu beckoned the scholar to follow.
Yin Gong touched his nose and silently followed.
When I entered the building, the furnishings inside were very luxurious.
At this time, a lady came to visit, forty years old, and the charm still exists. The old man said, "This is my wife." ”
Yin Xianggong returned the salute to her.
Sui Lian'er raised his eyebrows and handed out a large basket of pears.
said: "A small gift, I hope to accept it." ”
The old man was flattered and took it.
"The fact that adults can come has already flattered the little old man's family, and it is the best gift."
Sui Lian'er patted the two brothers beside him and explained:
"Please forgive me, I came here this time, mainly to let these two see what the wedding is all about."
The old man said: "The two little sons are clever and blessed people at first glance. You may be seated, you may be seated. ”
Gong Yin snorted and laughed, and Sui Lian'er also smiled.
The laughing brothers were confused, and He Wenwu asked Yin Gong.
"What are you laughing at?"
Yin Gong wiped his tears and laughed louder.
Sui Lian'er grabbed He Wenwu and explained in his ear in a low voice.
After explaining, he proudly puffed up his fleshy little chest.
said loudly: "My sister said oh, I'm not fat, I'm rich!" You don't want to. ”
After speaking, he shook his head arrogantly and snorted lightly.
As soon as the words fell, everyone else around laughed.
The atmosphere also became instantly joyful, Sui Lian'er smiled and grabbed him and asked him to sit down quickly.
"The wedding is about to start, if you want to see the bride or not, just sit down if you want to see it."
He Wenwu immediately followed He Wenshun obediently.
Yin Gong gave a thumbs up, these two children taught well, they were clever and measured from time to time, they were good seedlings.
For a while, I was a little itchy.
Hearing the deafening sound of the sheng pipe and drum music in an instant, Sui Lian'er hurriedly covered He Wenshun's ears, and Yin Xianggong also appropriately covered He Wenwu's ears.
Someone ran up and said, "It's coming! ”
The old man hurriedly went out to greet him, and Gong Yin, like He Wenwu, who likes to join in the fun, stretched his neck and stared at him, one big and one small, with similar expressions, and those who didn't know thought it was his father and son.
Sui Lian'er sneered.
He Wenshun looked at it suspiciously.
Sui Lian'er mouthed to the two of them, and He Wenshun snickered in a low voice after reading it.
In a short time, many gauze lamps led the bridegroom, who was about seventeen or eighteen years old, handsome and tall as a pine.
The old man asked him to salute Sui Lian'er and Yin Gong first.
The groom stepped forward to pay a visit, Sui Lian'er accepted it dignifiedly, and when he arrived at Yin Gong, the groom stared at Yin Gong with straight eyes.
Yin Gong smiled heartily, like the host of the wedding, and returned the semi-officiating ceremony.
Immediately afterwards, Weng and his son-in-law bowed to each other, and after worshipping, they entered the table.
After a while, the young maids and maids came one after another, carrying steaming delicacies and wine, and the jade bowls and golden cups were shining, and the table was shining.
After a few rounds of drinking, the old man asked the maid to invite the young lady.
The maid left in response, and He Wenwu's eyes were weak and twisted.
Sui Lian'er lowered his head and asked him, "What's wrong?" ”
He Wenwu whispered, "I want to sleep." ”
Sui Lian'er hugged him, coaxed him softly, and asked He Wenshun, who was yawning beside him.
"Would you like to get some sleep?"
He Wenshun's head was little by little, and he leaned silently on the other side of Sui Lian'er and fell asleep.
Sui Lian'er casually cast a spell to isolate the noisy sound outside, patted gently, and whispered to coax the two to sleep.
Through the water curtain, look at everything outside.
Seeing that his daughter had not come out for a long time, the old man got up by himself and lifted the curtain to urge.
After a while, several maids and servants came out with the bride in their arms, and the incense of the blue musk deer spread.
The old man asked his daughter to salute Sui Lian'er first, Sui Lian'er nodded in response, turned around and saluted again.
He Wenwu snorted, and He Wenshun rubbed his eyes.
Eyes lit up.
"My sister is so beautiful."
The bride bowed her head and smiled shyly, with pearl earrings and jade phoenix hairpins in her sideburns. The reddish cheeks add a charm, which is really unparalleled in the world.
Sui Lian'er patted him.
"Awake?"
He Wenwu's eyes widened, and he snorted, he was full of sleep, and he was in good spirits, so he grabbed He Wenshun and began to run around in the banquet.
Yin Gong asked her, "Aren't you worried that he will run away?" ”
Sui Lian'er lazily raised his eyes and looked at He Wenwu who was running around.
"I can't lose it."
Seeing her affirmative expression, Yin Gong couldn't say anything.
Step back and drink slowly.
I disliked that the wine glass was too small, and I used a gold bottle to pour wine, which was very large and could hold several buckets.
Yin Gong thought that this gold bottle could be used to testify to his classmates, so he secretly put it in his sleeve, and then pretended to be drunk and lay on the table.
Sui Lianer silently watched him act.
A sip of wine, a bite of food, and the eyes narrowed when eating.
Not long after, the groom was leaving, the sheng pipe drum sounded violently, and He Wenwu ran back with He Wenshun, who was sweating profusely.
picked up the wine glass as water and poured it into He Wenshun, He Wenshun's body shook in an instant, his eyes were full of stars, and he fell into Sui Lian'er's arms.
He Wenwu looked at Sui Lian'er in confusion.
"What's going on?"
Sui Lian'er said lightly: "That's what I used for drinking, and you used this?" ”
As he spoke, he pointed to the cup on the table.
He Wenwu immediately lowered his head guiltily.
Sui Lian'er said: "It's okay, just sleep, the wedding banquet is over, and we should go back." ”
After that, he picked up He Wenshun and said goodbye to the old man and left.
I met a maid coming over and saying.
"The golden bottle is one missing. Wasn't Mo taken by anyone? ”
The old man retorted: "What a character Yin Gong is, how can he covet a gold bottle." Adults have never seen any treasure, why covet a gold bottle, this matter should not be mentioned again. ”
He Wenwu pulled Sui Lian'er's sleeve and made her bow her head.
Sui Lian'er lowered his head curiously.
He Wenwu whispered: "I saw that scholar hid the gold bottle in his sleeve. ”
Sui Lian'er patted his head, hugged He Wenshun, and lowered his head.
Leaned into his ear and whispered.
He Wenwu jumped to Yin Gong's side with a smile and pushed it.
"Wake up, you forgot to give the gold bottle back."
Yin Gong wanted to continue to pretend to be asleep, but He Wenwu's big move, even if he slept soundly, he should wake up.
What's more, he was still beside him and said, "If you don't wake up again, I'll splash you with water." ”
Yin Gong waved his hand and said, "Wake up, wake up." ”
Generously and heartily admitted that it was the gold bottle he took, and took out the gold bottle in his sleeve, handed it to the old man, and explained: "I made a bet with my friend that if I met a ghost fox, I would leave a thing to prove it, so I thought about hiding a gold bottle privately to be a witness to my classmates." ”
The old man was busy: "Your guests are polite, this is not my own thing, and the borrowed things still need to be returned, so as not to worry about the master, so I am a little anxious." ”
Yin Gong asked curiously.
The old man made it clear one by one.
Only then did Yin Gong understand.
Sui Lianer picked up the brothers next to him.
"If you don't ask yourself, you will be regarded as a thief, and you will not be like them in the future."
In a word, the old man and Yin Gong blushed.
Sui Lian'er walked with the two children and said jokingly.
"Thank you both, and invite you two to drink tomorrow. It can also be regarded as a proof for this Yin Gong. ”
After speaking, he glanced at Yin Gong teasingly.
Yin Gong smiled and said, "Then there is this girl, thank you." ”
Sui Lian'er smiled indifferently, and the guests and hosts were happy for a while.
Leave with two brothers.
Gong Yin asked the old man.
"Who is she?"
The old man said: "Yin River water ghost." ”
Yin Gong smiled heartily.
"It's a wonderful person, and I will definitely visit it if I have the chance."
Early the next morning, the old man and the scholar received a cart of wine from the hotel.
The hotel junior said: "It was a girl with two children, who came to his house in the middle of the night last night and ordered it to be sent here." ”
