Chapter 20: Conversation (1)
Ning Shuo came to her on purpose. He didn't worry about her.
Listening to Li's words, she simply agreed to withdraw from the marriage, but she didn't look sad, she was very strong, and she should be fine. But he still wanted to come and see for himself.
No matter what, it's a setback. When the little girl used to encounter setbacks, she loved to cry her nose. She would sit obediently in his yard and weep silently, and she would cry while secretly looking at him for comfort, and then she would get some kind words from him, and she would babble again: Sir, I am so wronged, if I do it again, I will definitely do better.
She was very pitiful, and she was the closest to him—so when he died, he could imagine how long she was going to cry.
But this time he changed his identity and place, he was not qualified to listen to her cry, and he could only pretend to meet her by chance.
The etiquette of the family rules, they can't be too close when they meet. So a pair of eyes from afar, one stood still in front of the flowers and trees under the porch, and the other stood in the pavilion with a half-hanging thin bamboo curtain and stopped.
The feast bell took Xu's mother and Guan Gui Yingying to salute, "Cousin is also here to enjoy the cool?" ”
Ning Shuo muttered, "It's stuffy inside." ”
Feast bell: "I'm afraid it's going to rain again at night." ”
Guan Gui directly grabbed the words: "Yes, the sky in Kyoto is really weird." Fortunately, no matter how heavy the rain is, it won't knock the peaches off the tree - if only you could eat them all year round. ”
Guan Gui is all about eating. Ning Shuo also watched her grow up, and smiled softly when he heard this, "I have a fruit cake book there, which specifically says that this kind of fruit is made into fruit cakes, why don't you take it and learn it and make peaches into peach cakes?" ”
You can eat it all year round.
Guan Gui also laughed, "Third Young Master, my girl has a lot of books, and there are similar meal books. ”
She likes to eat, but she doesn't like to cook. She didn't do it, so tired!
Mother Xu felt that Guan Gui was presumptuous, so she hurriedly glared at her, pulled her to follow behind, and left the feast bell and Ning Shuo to speak at a short distance.
The feast bell also got down to business, "Thank you cousin for working hard for me these days, you yourself are not yet well, but you are still tired for me. ”
Ning Shuo: "The doctor said that I was fine, it was better to move more, and my cousin didn't have to worry about it." ”
Then he paused and said: "Yu Xingzhi is a little confused, self-righteous, and stubborn. Even if Lord Yu did not allow him to withdraw from the marriage, he would beg Buyuchuan to come forward to withdraw from the marriage because he worshipped Buyuchuan as his teacher, and his master was like his father. ”
"Bu Yuchuan is more powerful than Lord Yu, if he uses some means, he will definitely be able to retreat."
Hearing this, Feast Ling first glanced at Ning Shuo in surprise, "Cousin seems to be particularly displeased with the old man." ”
Then he pondered for a moment and smiled, "My cousin is afraid that I still have illusions about my behavior and will break the connection, so he told me that he will definitely withdraw from the marriage?" ”
Ning Shuo hesitated for a moment, but still said: "It's not that I'm afraid that you have illusions, my cousin can be firm in her heart to quit the marriage so quickly, which shows that her mind is quite stable, and there is no need to worry." It's just that it's really unlucky to encounter this matter, I just want to tell you that whether this marriage is our family or his family, whether the adults are willing or not, whether there is rain or not, it will be successful in the end. ”
"It is fortunate to be able to withdraw successfully, don't be sad, your good marriage is still behind, and it is better to be able to withdraw from the marriage simply than to be dragged by adults."
After saying this, I was a little emotional: When I talk to her now, I have to go around and around, otherwise it will be a pass. If it was in the past, where would such a detour be used?
Feast Bell heard his kindness, and knew that he was sincerely good for himself, so he felt that the third cousin was really a good person, and he felt that he was really similar to his husband.
It's a strange feeling, and she's not used to it yet. But because of a strange feeling, he naturally got closer to him, and said, "Don't worry, cousin, I won't be sad." ”
She took a few steps forward, got closer to Ning Shuo, and her tone was much lighter, and said, "My husband once said that it is not easy for a woman to live a lifetime, and if she can live happily for a lifetime, she should not live sadly." And I am naturally cowardly, so I have to be intentionally stronger, so that I can live well. ”
When she was a child, she didn't understand, she only felt that being stronger was a little fierce, and secretly practiced several fierce expressions in front of the bronze mirror - but then she understood without him teaching. For example, when he is terminally ill, she has to hold back her panic and tears to buy a coffin for him.
For example, when he died suddenly and reasonably in the middle of a quiet night, even if he regretted not seeing him for the last time and cried uncontrollably, he still had to endure the pain to organize the funeral for him.
"I invited a lot of people to the funeral for him, and the firecrackers rang off for seven days."
She had nowhere to say these words. In fact, she really wanted to tell someone about her husband. So when I said this, I couldn't stop mentioning it.
Because she found that Ning Shuo was really listening to her sir. He took it seriously and listened attentively, as if she was talking about human music theory.
She couldn't help but continue: "I heard that people die and leave their souls for seven days. My husband came to Lingnan alone, and in the spring of that year, when I was still young, I saw a lot of books on his carriage! ”
She was greedy, and for the first time she was cheeky and bold to come to the door. She is actually very bold, and it is the first time she has been so bold.
"I don't usually dare to watch the killing of chickens! But for the sake of my husband, I plucked chicken feathers and stewed chicken soup - and he was finally moved by me, and taught me four years of learning. ”
"It's just that before my husband died, I couldn't ask him his name, his birthday, where he came from, if he had any family, and if I wanted to write to them to tell them about his death...... I didn't know any of this, so I thought, then give him a lively scene, I invited eighteen dragon and lion dances alone, and also set up a stage to sing. ”
There is a custom in Lingnan to sing operas for the deceased's home.
After singing for seven days, the old people and children came without shouting, and the house was full every day.
If the gentleman is in the spirit of heaven and the soul is still there, he will definitely not be lonely again.
——If you come alone, you must go lively.
Thinking of this, she was about to cry again, so she pursed her lips and sniffed, and her little trills trembled: "Stranger, foreign soul, hey, in the end, I didn't send Mr. back to his hometown." ”
Ning Shuo's eyes softened into spring water. He thought that this must have been the mercy of God, so that he met the banquet bell in the spring in the annual rings like dead wood.
He whispered, "You've done a great job, such a big funeral...... Your husband must not have imagined that he would be able to hold such a grand funeral...... He will be grateful to you. Don't cry, he will rejoice knowing that you care so much about him. ”
The feast bell was a little embarrassed, thinking that he would cry when he said it like this, and he would inevitably become a crybaby in the mouth of Mr. again.
But she doesn't know why, when she looks at her cousin, she always thinks of her husband, and now she still has a strong desire to talk to him about his life.
Ning Shuo looked out. He laughed a little, and didn't know how to describe his current mood, so he could only take a few steps forward, stand outside the porch, lean against the railing, and turned sideways. Feast Bell's eyes lit up, and he took two steps forward again, leaning on the veranda railing.
The feast bell whispered, "Cousin, you are somewhat similar to my husband. It's not the look, it's not the voice, it's not the age......"
"But I just think you look like you. I thought maybe it was because my husband might be the son of a family. ”
Ning Shuo was surprised: "Do you think he is from a family?" ”
Feast Ling felt that he was suspicious, so he was a little dissatisfied, and muttered: "What's more, I sometimes think that he is a fairy descending to earth." ”
Ning Shuo couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.
