"The crown ceremony is the first big gift in life, and after the crown ceremony, it means that you are no longer a child, but an adult who is responsible, can take responsibility, and stands in the world between heaven and earth......" Ye Jian stood outside Shu Yan's door, chattering drunkenly.

"Knowing Brother Ye, we have remembered your teachings, and we are already adults." Xiao Mo smiled at Shu Yan, and the two of them supported him and sent Ye Yan back.

Today, the three of them drank from midday until the sun went west. Ye Ye has been in Beijing for many days, waiting for the officials to be awarded, but there is no result. Now he was completely deprived of the confidence he had had when he first arrived, and he was depressed in his heart, and he had already drunk a few glasses of wine before noon. Later, Shu Yan and Xiao Mo treated him hospifully, and after Xiao Mo's flattery, he drank a few more glasses.

Shu Yan and Xiao Mo also drank a lot, and after sending Ye Ye back, they went back to the house and fell asleep on the bed.

Xiao Mo slept on the bed, in a daze, feeling a little thirsty, he opened his eyes and looked out the window, it was already completely dark, and he felt that he had probably slept for an hour or two. Outside, the light in Shu Yan's room was still on, and there was a smell of offerings.

"Hey, Brother Shu has drunk so much wine, and it's not early, why hasn't he slept yet? And a scent, what the hell is he doing? ”

Xiao Mo gently opened the door and walked outside, and found Shu Yan kneeling in front of several cases, with three incense sticks burning on them, and more than a dozen wooden signs in front of the incense, lined up, with a name written on each wooden card. Xiao Mo looked at one of the tablets with the words "Shumen Han's Zhixin's Position" written on it, and knew that it must be the tablet of Zhixin that Brother Shu often mentioned.

Shu Yanzheng knelt on the ground with a lonely expression, muttering something in his mouth, not caring at all about Xiao Mo standing behind him.

"Grandfather, father, mother, Father-in-law Xie, Father-in-law Tang, Uncle Han, Aunt Han - Zhixin." Shu Yan really didn't want to say Zhixin's name with these people, but she did go to another world with these people.

"You know in the spirits of heaven. I have two happy things to tell you, first, I have been elected as Shang Shulang, and now I am serving in Shang Shutai. As a child of a poor family, I have been very lucky to go all the way from being promoted to being filial piety to being awarded Shang Shulang. I think this should be the blessing of your heavenly spirits for me. Second, today is my twentieth birthday, and I have a coronation gift of my own. I thought that you were all gone, and that the crown ceremony would not be a luxury. But you would never have imagined it, even I didn't expect that my good brother Xiao Mo fulfilled this matter for me, and today is also his twentieth birthday, we jointly held a unique mutual crown ceremony, and Brother Ye Chung, who gave us the name, they are all my good brothers, and I want to marry them forever. ”

"Brother Shu, do you want to marry Jin Lan with me forever?"

Xiao Mo suddenly spoke, startling Shu Yan, who was concentrating, "When did you come, thief, eavesdrop on me." ”

"What about you, I'm going to ask you, what are you doing here when you don't sleep so late?"

Shu Yan's face was slightly condensed, and he said slowly: "Xiao Mo, you don't know, every brand on the case represents one of my relatives, from childhood to adulthood, they love me very much, treat me very well, raise me up, teach me to be a man, and now they are all gone, some are leaving naturally, I can still listen to their dying teachings, and some are suddenly and forever without warning, without even saying a word of goodbye...... Whoever it was, all of them wanted me to grow up safely and get ahead. I've been away from home for months, and I've been living in no fixed place, and now that I'm settled, it's time to let them know, and it just so happens that today is our adult day, and I just happened to tell them about it. I lay in bed for a while, I was going to wait for you to fall asleep......"

"It's normal to worship and think about your ancestors, so why hide it from me?"

"It's not that I deliberately hide it from you, it's just that this kind of fact is my private matter, and it's useless for you to know."

"But I obviously heard it, you want to marry Jin Lan with me forever."

"It's good for you to hear it, it's my heart to marry you forever, but I don't know if you want to."

"I'm willing, since you want to marry Jin Lan with me forever, why don't you take advantage of it now?"

"Now? What now? I am now mourning my ancestors. ”

"Why not, it's just right now, ready-made bookcases, ready-made incense, and so many of your ancestors to testify to us, everything is ready."

"No...... It's not appropriate. Shu Yan felt that it was a bit ridiculous to put these two unrelated things together.

"It's right, it's very suitable."

Shu Yan knew that Xiao Mo had always said that the wind was rain, but he couldn't find a reason to refuse, eh, he suddenly thought of one, and said to Xiao Mo: "I'm afraid it won't work today, I just said, I'll marry Jin Lan with you, and Brother Ye, and the three of us will marry Jin Lan forever, now it's only the two of us How can we do it, it's better to wait until tomorrow and call Brother Ye together." ”

"No, absolutely not, the two of us will marry the two of us, it is your business to marry him, I won't marry him anyway."

"You're blaming again, aren't you, what's wrong with the three of us, Brother Ye is so good?"

"Brother Ye is good, but if I don't get married to him, it's not good, what are you still inking, the incense is about to burn out, don't hurry up!"

After Xiao Mo finished speaking, he knelt down in front of the desk, and knelt beside him with Shu Yan's clothes. Shu Yan had no choice but to kowtow to the front of the case, and said: "The ancestors are on top, I, Shu Yan, am willing to marry Jin Lan with Xiao Moyong, and share the blessings and difficulties in the future, not to be born on the same day and month of the same year, but to die on the same day of the same month and the same year." ”

Before Shu Yan's words fell, Xiao Mo pursed his lips and laughed, "Brother Shu, you are wrong, we were born on the same day, the same month, and the same year." ”

After hearing this, Shu Yan suddenly realized, "Yes, I forgot, this opportunity is really rare." ”

"Brother Shu, is there anything further than Yongjie Jinlan?"

"Further?" Shu Yan asked rhetorically, "I only know that the ancients had friends with Bao, Qin wrestling, New Year's friends, and cloth clothes, which have been passed down as beautiful talks, what else is going further, is it a friend of life and death?" ”

Xiao Mo didn't answer, and said to himself: "My Xiao Mo is willing to marry Shu Yan forever, in the future, I will share blessings and difficulties, and I will never be separated from each other, and I will not be born on the same day and month in the same year, and I will die on the same day and month in the same year." ”

"It's wrong, it's wrong, it's a matter between men and women, how can you talk nonsense." Shu Yan smiled, "You, you've been in the Central Plains for so long, you've been patronizing the mountains and rivers, and you don't read more, it's a shame to say it!" ”

Xiao Mo didn't refute, just looked at Zhixin's tablet and said, "I just ask Sister Zhixin for your blessing." ”

"You are wrong again, you are my brother, Zhixin is my dead wife, you should call your sister-in-law, how can you call me sister-in-law?"

"It doesn't matter what it's called." Little Mura Shuyan got up and sat aside, "Brother Shu, I just want to hear your story, if you have time today, can you tell me about it?" ”

"It's okay, we've known each other for so long, although we've gone through life and death, but we don't seem to know each other well, and now that we're brothers, we should get to know each other well. These people have stories with me, who do you want to hear? ”

"Listen to Sister Zhixin first, there are so many ancestors of yours, why is it only hers that is a formal tablet, and the rest is just a small piece of wood?"

"Well, there's a reason for that. When I was doing literature in Ruyin, I often dreamed of Zhixin. In the dream, her voice and smile were the same as before her death, but she was dressed in a beautiful dress. She repeated the vows we had made, and she said that she had identified herself as my wife since she was a child, and asked me to take her with her. When I woke up, I pondered her words over and over again, why did she come to me when she was dead? Later, when I was about to board the boat to Luoyang, I passed by her house and brought her tablet with me, which may be the so-called 'take her with me'. As for the rest of my relatives, their tablets are all at home, and these small wooden tablets are just temporary for the scene. ”

"You and her really have a deep relationship, what stories have you all had, what vows have you all made, I really want to hear them, and also, the two flowers you brought all the way from Ruyin, if I guess correctly, must be related to her, right?"

"Yes."

"Can you elaborate on that?"

Shu Yan nodded, and then told Xiao Mo about the past things about himself and Zhixin. Speaking of Shu Han and the two of them using the "Book of Songs" to give together, Xiao Mo laughed along; Speaking of Shu An and others being swept away by the flood, both of them bore the burden of the family, and Xiao Mo followed the grief; Speaking of the two of them working in the countryside and reciting the Book of Songs, Xiao Mo was envious; Speaking of the two fighting wild wolves together, Xiao Mo couldn't help but fight in admiration; Speaking of the meeting between the two on the festival, Cailan gave medicine, and Xiao Mo secretly said that it was poignant; Speaking of Zhixin using fire to burn a plum blossom on her shoulder that is exactly the same as Shu Yan, Xiao Mo praised Zhixin for her deep affection; Speaking of saying goodbye to the two at the ferry, they used the "Book of Songs" to say an oath, and from then on, Yin and Yang were separated, and Xiao Mo was silently sad for them.

In the end, Xiao Mo was already fascinated by what he heard, his eyes were straight, and he didn't feel distracted, "I envy the deep love between the two of you, and I envy Sister Zhixin." ”

Shu Yan smiled: "You are talking nonsense again, you are a man, what do you envy her, if you want to envy me, you should also envy me." ”

"Oh, yes, yes, I should envy you for having such a good girl." Xiao Mo knew that he was wrong, so he hurriedly changed his words, "I think Sister Zhixin has two loves, one is to love the Book of Songs, and the other is to love you." I love the Book of Songs because I love you, and I love you more because I love the Book of Songs. Brother Shu, can you teach me the Book of Songs? I'm also going to be the woman who loves the Book of Songs, oh, no, no, no, it's a man, it's a man. ”
