Chapter 275: Marriage on the Same Day (1)
There is the order of the parents, and there is the official judgment of the official family.
finally waited for the day when he could be with Brother Shu justifiably, which was the most dreamed thing for Xiao Mo in the past six years. At this time, she should comfort Shu Yan and go with him to live a real life. Who knew that she didn't care about Shu Yan, but hurried to chase Zhixin.
Ruoxin, who had been waiting for a long time, saw her sister come out, although the result was not satisfactory, but after all, she was very relieved that she was pardoned for death. As soon as Zhixin came out, she just wanted to hug her brother and cry, but found that Xiao Mo chased him out, so she hurriedly walked away with Ruoxin.
Xiao Mo followed closely: "Sister Zhixin, wait for me." β
"Why don't you come with him?" Zhixin didn't want to call out the title "Brother Yan" at this time, but replaced it with "he".
"How can I go with him before a man and a woman are married?" Xiao Mo smiled ghostly, "Sister Zhixin, your words have deceived others, but you can't hide it from me." β
"What am I hiding? I didn't. Zhixin walked forward by herself, not facing Xiao Mo squarely.
Xiao Mo stepped forward and grabbed Zhixin's sleeve: "Sister Zhixin, where are you going?" β
"I ......" yes. Where am I going? The stone mansion was sealed, and the Jade Leaf Pavilion couldn't go back, but it was a pity that the huge Luoyang City had no place for itself.
Ruoxin comforted: "Sister, why don't you go to the cold and summer inn with me." β
Xiao Mo stopped: "No." The inn is crowded with people, and it is not suitable for women to stay. β
was hesitating, and suddenly saw Chunlan walking quickly and said, "Doctor, I'm here to pick you up." I knew you were going to be released. β
"How can you be so sure?"
"Because your brother Yan is here."
Chunlan didn't know the actual situation of the trial, and this unintentional sentence made Zhixin and Xiao Mo very embarrassed.
"Shifu is sealed, where do you take me?" Zhixin asked hesitantly.
"Go to our peony garden. Although the stone mansion is sealed, the peony garden is an independent courtyard, separated from the courtyard wall in the house, except for flowers and plants, there is nothing, so the guard is not strict. I bribed the guards, and they promised you to stay for the time being. β
"Really? That's thanks to you. Let's go. β
"Doctor." Chunlan called out in a sad voice, "Take care of yourself, I can't serve you." β
"How?" Zhixin said in surprise.
"Shifu was copied, and I, along with all the maidservants, were confiscated into the official maids. Either they were sold to Beppu or they were accused of marrying someone. Today I begged my caretaker to come and pick you up in a hurry. I was relieved to see that you had saved your life, but I couldn't go back with you. β
"Huh?" Zhixin and Chunlan are called master and servant, but they are actually like sisters, which adds another pain to Zhixin. These slaves and maids are not officially registered, have no independent human rights, and are like cattle and horses, and when the owner is gone, they are confiscated by the official family and waiting for distribution. The tree fell and scattered, and there was nothing to be done. The two of them lingered and cried for a while, and had to say goodbye in tears.
Zhixin was about to go back to the peony garden alone, but saw Xiao Mo smiling and said to herself, "Sister Zhixin, can you take me in?" I also have nowhere to go. β
"You?" Although the other party is basically in the category of love rivals for himself. But somehow, maybe it was because of God's tricks that led to today's result, Zhixin never hated Xiao Mo. "If you want to, of course I won't refuse." 33
"That's great."
Zhixin and Ruoxin said a few words of intimacy, and then went back to the peony garden with Xiao Mo.
After the stone mansion was seized, all the property was confiscated, including fertile land, gardens, mansions, shops, jewelry, chariots and horses, water mills, etc., countless, and there were more than 800 slaves alone. It's a pity that all the world-high wealth accumulated by Shi Chong in his life came to naught for a while. At the beginning of Shi Chong's ambush, he thought that he was at most a crime of exile in Lingnan, and it was not until he was escorted to the execution ground that he knew that the other party had made a means of lore. Sima Lun not only wants his own life, but also wants to covet his property.
The way of heaven is long, and the past ten years have been like a big dream for Zhixin. changed from a poor girl to a wealthy lady, although she enjoyed all the glory and wealth, she finally lost Brother Yan. No matter how much she hates the Shi family, and no matter how grateful she is to Mrs. Shi, the Shi family has come to an end, and all grievances have ended. Zhixin really lived up to Mrs. Shi's entrustment, gave her her her last ride before her execution, and became the corpse collector of the Shi family.
In addition to Shi Chong, many members of the Twenty-Four Friends of Jingu, including the beautiful man Pan Anren, were not spared, and they were all wiped out on the same day.
Jiang Liu and others were also sentenced by Ming Zhengzheng soon after. Xiao Mo does not have a good relationship with his uncle. Because Xiao Mo was naturally bold and tolerant, his grandfather, who was the chief, was very fond of him, but he was disgusted with his son Jiang Liu. Sometimes he even joked that he wanted to pass on the position of chief to Xiao Mo. This made Jiang Liu very resentful, and secretly said many times in front of the clansmen that Xiao Mo was a Chinese seed and that Qiang Village could not keep it after all. Xiao Mo also knew his uncle's hostility towards him, but he had no intention of arguing with him. Later, Jiang Liu's rebellion failed and he was captured, repented in his heart, and begged Xiao Mo for forgiveness. Of course, Xiao Mo didn't care about his past suspicions, and at this time, just like Zhixin did to the Shi family, he took care of Jiang Liu's affairs.
After Shu Yan came back from Tingwei, he was depressed and resentful, and he only used wine to drown his sorrows every day. He couldn't have imagined that Zhixin would say such cruel words. At the critical moment of life and death, if she chooses to join the Shi family in order to survive, it is still forgivable. But she actually said words that despised the poor and disgusted herself! Sure enough, there is no true love in the world, and no matter what kind of feelings you have, you can't stand the real test of fame, fortune and status.
Now winning Xiao Mo is what he dreams of very much, and it is a perfect result - if Zhixin does not appear in his life again.
This result should also be Xiao Mo's dream. In the past, when the two of them didn't find out the relationship between men and women, no matter how busy they were, Xiao Mo would always seize the time to bring the fresh dishes she made to see her. But when the verdict was pronounced in Tingwei Temple, she didn't see her joy, and she didn't even leave a word, leaving herself and going straight away. Now, many days have passed, and I haven't even seen a human figure. Through Ruoxin, I learned that Xiao Mo now lives in the peony garden with Zhixin. At this point, she is still so close to Zhixin, which is very puzzling to Shu Yan. But he seemed to understand that this might be the shyness of women. When she was still a man, the two were honest brothers, but now they have become an unmarried couple, but they need to avoid the suspicion of men and women.
According to the official verdict, Shu Yan can now be with Xiao Mo justifiably, and can even start the wedding. But now that he has experienced this change, he can't think about it at all.
In contrast, the Shi family has urged Zhixin many times. Zhixin first refused on the grounds that the matter of the Shi family was not settled. Now that the Shi family's affairs are over, I want to use Mrs. Shi as an excuse. For the sake of his parents, this filial piety is three years, and of course the Shi family will not agree.
Zhixin knew that she couldn't delay it, she was already discouraged, and when the dust settled on the marriage between Brother Yan and Xiao Mo, she would give up, so she kept urging Xiao Mo to marry Shu Yan as soon as possible. But Xiao Mo is the same as his prevarication of the Shi family, and he always does not face it head-on.
Now that the Shi family has been defeated, a mountain of gold has fallen, and even the servants have all been dismissed, it is impossible to be a lady as carefree as before, and wait for everyone to serve them with food, clothing, housing and transportation. Now you have to do everything yourself, but fortunately, Zhixin herself is from a family of tiles, whether it is cooking, laundry, sewing and mending, all of them are not a problem. Xiao Mo is even more independent, and he is good at contacting the outside world, and Xiao Mo will do what he needs to do if he needs to buy firewood, rice, oil and salt. Not only that, if only Zhixin lived in such a large garden, it would be a little panicked at night, but Zhixin is now glad that Xiao Mo exists.
Although the basic food, clothing, housing and transportation can be normal, Zhixin always has a sense of grief and sorrow on her face. Xiao Mo often looked at her with a hearty face in front of her, thinking that she was relieved.
It was the season when the peonies were blooming, and the peonies in the garden were in full bloom. At this time of the year, it always attracts many female relatives to come to enjoy the flowers, and it is lively for a while. But this year, things are wrong, and such a blooming scene is only a lonely two beauties here to relieve their depression.
Suddenly, I heard someone shouting through the wall, and when I listened closely, it was the voice of the guard. Xiao Mo responded, and the other party replied: "Two girls, pass on the above words, this garden has changed owners, and you are limited to move out before the end of the month, and find a place to live as soon as possible." β
This sudden eviction order undoubtedly increased Zhixin's anxiety.
"It's only seven or eight days before the end of the month, Sister Zhixin, what are you going to do?" In contrast, Xiao Mo didn't take this eviction order seriously, but instead asked Zhixin first.
"What else can I do, I can only take one step at a time." Zhixin replied helplessly.
"I'm afraid it can't be delayed, I advise you to make up your mind as soon as possible."
"Huh." Zhixin smiled bitterly, "As a woman, what can I make?" β
Xiao Mo was about to say something, so he followed up with the situation: "Of course, I want to marry the Shi family as soon as possible and find your lifelong support." If you don't go to a Yangguan Avenue in front of you, you are really toasting and not eating and drinking. β
Indeed, procrastination is not the way to do it at all. But how do you really face the Shi family? The world is so big that you will always find a place to stay. But even if he moved out of the peony garden, he still couldn't escape the Shi family. Even if it drags on any longer, it can't change the result after all, the long pain is better than the short pain, it is better to cut off the naΓ―ve fantasy and face it bravely. "What about you, what are you going to do?" She asked rhetorically.
"What ...... I" Xiao Mo paused deliberately, squinted at Zhixin and said, "Do you still need to ask, there is an official family in charge, of course, it is with my big brother Shu." β
A resentment came to her heart, Zhixin couldn't imagine that the other party could say it so directly, but she was immediately relieved, since the result had been determined, why should she care about these trivial furs?
"Alright then, I bless you. But I want to wait until you have the results first, and then I will promise the Shi family. β
Xiao Mo seemed to know what Zhixin was going to say, so without waiting for her words to fall, she said directly: "Then how can it be done?" My eldest brother Shu is alone, and I am alone here. I didn't ask anything of him, and our happy event was very simple, and it was done in one day; The Shi family is a wealthy family, and the whole set of wedding etiquette processes is very elaborate and cumbersome. The son of the Shi family is very important to you, and your wedding must cause a sensation in the entire Luoyang City, so you must agree in advance to handle it. β
"You think too much, I'm not blessed." Zhixin responded dismally, still clinging to her principles, "You know my relationship with Brother Yan, I'm worried that he won't be able to let go of me, I must watch you do the happy event first, so that I can marry into the Shi family with peace of mind, otherwise I won't agree." β
"You mean, you don't want the Shi family to make the wedding bigger?"
"It's best to keep it simple, and it's best not to be known to outsiders."
"That's great. I don't think it's better to do this, how about the wedding of the four of us on the same day? β
"Same day?" Xiao Mo has always been different from ordinary people's thinking, and Zhixin knows it today. "This kind of thing is usually avoided by others, so why do we have to rush for a day?"
"Can others compare to the four of us? We were born on the same day, the same month, and the same day, and we once held a coming-of-age ceremony on the same day, and we wanted to be rumored to be a beautiful conversation in Luoyang City back then. Now they are going to tie the knot again, which shows that this is God's arrangement, if you don't conform to God, won't you live up to this fate? β
For you, it is a strange fate, for me, it is strange, but the fate is a bad fate!
Zhixin was secretly churning bitter water in her heart, and she didn't know whether to agree or not, when suddenly there was a knock on the door. Zhixin is not used to seeing outsiders, so naturally Xiao Mo went to open the door. When he opened the door, he saw that it was Xiahou Men leading Ah Miao, Ah Yan and other Shi family members. No need to ask, it's for Zhixin again. However, this time the lineup is a bit big, which seems to be extraordinary.
As a male matchmaker, Xiahoumen should not have direct contact with the young woman to be married, but except for Zhixin and Xiaomo, there is really no third person here, so he can't care about it.
Xiahou Gate entered the door first, and the people of the Shi family moved in one after another, and each gift was covered with a piece of red silk.
Ah Miao and Ah Yan walked up to Zhixin and respectfully saluted, "I've seen Dr. Xin." β
"What are you doing here?"
Hearing Zhixin's question, Xiahou Men arched his hand and smiled: "Please forgive Dr. Xin for Xiahou's abrupt sin, I came today to be entrusted by the Shi family to perform the gift of the invitation." β
"Please? What period is please? β
"Didn't Dr. Xin ask knowingly? Of course, it's time to welcome you. β
"I didn't make an appointment with you in advance, how can you come here without permission?" Zhixin exclaimed.
"What else do you have to promise? The marriage is a foregone conclusion, so why delay it for a long time? Presumably Dr. Xin, you also know that Brother Biyu admires you very much, and marrying Dr. Xin into the door is like a lady in the main room, not a concubine, and all etiquette is not sloppy. β
"Hmph. Don't say such hypocritical things! If you look up to me a little, you should say hello before you make this invitation! Zhixin knew that when she was deceived into the Shi family by Shi Dagongzi, this Xiahoumen was also an accomplice, so she didn't have a good impression of him.
Ah Miao saw that Zhixin seemed to have a prejudice against Xiahoumen, and thought that it might be better to communicate with her by herself as a woman, so she said to Zhixin with a smile: "It's indeed a bit rude to not greet Dr. Xin in advance, but Dr. Xin doesn't have to be picky about this little thing." After all, when we enter the door, we are family. β
Ah Yan also followed closely: "Exactly." Now the government is in full swing to prepare for this wedding, and now the wedding date should be finalized as soon as possible, and everything is well arranged. Besides, everything is presided over by the eldest princess of Yong'an, just waiting to welcome Dr. Xin into the mansion. β
When it comes to the eldest princess of Yong'an, Zhixin can't help but feel sorry for her. was already resentful, but now he was even more unfair, his face was crimson, and his eyebrows were raised: "Who is a family with you!" The more you persecute like this, the more I disagree! Hurry back with your bride price! β
Some people died, but not completely......
