Chapter 226: Childhood Friends
Xiang Xing was so depressed that he couldn't wait to stab himself with the chopsticks in his hand. Why do you bring this up so much? It's a rhythm of death.
"No man has ever entered my room. You don't need to be conscious, you can know it by smelling it. ”
Xiang Xing's face was like fire: "Ashamed, ashamed." Ben Wang ...... Ahem...... So what, the weather is nice today, hehe, hehe. ”
The Brahmin King looked at Xiang Xing with a smile and helped him fill the tea: "King Xiang also has a nervous time?
"This ......" Xiang Xing was speechless, not knowing how to answer.
"How old is King Xiang this year?"
"Seventeen. ”
"It's really surprising to be so young, on the throne, and to have a Skybreak Realm cultivation. ”
Xiang Xing said: "You are not bad. The most powerful king in the world. ”
The king of Brahman stopped talking and began to eat seriously. After eating and drinking, set off again.
A conversation in the tavern reveals an incredible change in the relationship between the two. When I was in the same car again, I seemed to be friends who had known each other for many years, and there was a topic that could not be far away. Locks in everyday life, interesting things from childhood, etc. Xiang Xing was also very proud to talk about eating on the street, how to resist people, how to deceive people, etc., which made the Brahmin king laugh and scolded him for being a big villain.
In the words of the Brahmin king, she repeatedly mentions a person, a girl named Shakjo. When she was not the lord of the Western Regions, this girl appeared in all the events of the Brahmin king. After that, she disappeared. The affairs of the Brahmin king have nothing to do with her.
In the evening, the snow gets heavier and heavier, and the wagons leave a faint mark on the thick snow, and it doesn't take long for the mark to be covered by heavy snow. It's getting colder and colder.
The carriage stopped in front of a village that had been half buried in heavy snow. The Brahmin king invited Xiang Xing into the village.
The snow was so thick that it didn't reach the knees. The two of them mentioned the method of lightening their bodies, and there was no trace of stepping on the snow.
Soon, a simple house appeared. The gate had just been cleaned, and snow was piled on both sides. With such a large amount of snow, if not treated in time, the door will be flooded, and people will not be able to enter or exit.
The king of brahmins stepped forward to answer the door: "Is Sister Shirou at home?" and shouted three times before a middle-aged woman opened the door.
"Who are you, what are you looking for my family Rou'er?"
"When the deceased came to visit, I also asked the eldest lady to make it convenient. "The Brahmin King is very polite, that Miss Sharou must be her childhood friend.
"The two of them sat in the room, and it was cold outside. ”
The house is very simple and furnishings, and there is nothing but some of the most basic necessities of life. The central fire was on fire, and black smoke was billowing everywhere, and the Brahmin king was coughing. I sat down and drank some hot tea to feel better.
"Auntie, isn't Shi Rou at home?"
"She. Married. ”
"Married? Why didn't she let people inform me? Where's the marriage?"
The lady said, "Go east out of the village, there is a town twenty-four miles away. Rou'er got married at noon. I was not in good health and couldn't stand the cold wind, so I asked her father to accompany me. ”
The Brahmin king said, "Where is the town?"
"Mao ...... Well...... What do you want to do?" the lady still kept her vigilant heart.
Xiang Xing lightly patted the hand of the Brahmin King a few times: "Auntie, we are friends with Shi Rou," said and took out a piece of gold and ten high-grade spirit stones: "This gold was lent to me and others by Miss Shi Rou for business." These ten pieces of jade are stored with us, please return them to her as well. ”
He pulled up the Brahmin king and saluted: "It's cold, so we won't bother." Farewell. ”
The eldest lady said: "I can't read either, otherwise I'll write you a certificate." Such a precious thing, it is really ......"
"It's fine. She knows. ”
When they went out, and as they went back, the king of Brahmins asked, "What do you mean by that? We don't owe her money, and she doesn't leave anything with us!"
Xiang Xing said: "Her family's conditions are not very good, so it is not suitable for her directly." It's just an excuse. Anyway, she is so good with you, how can you ...... Don't have any money?"
"I don't know. On the first night before I ascended the throne, I gave her a lot of spirit stones and gold and silver. ”
"Hmm...... Let's go, let's talk in the car. ”
Get in the car and rush to the town that the eldest lady said.
"That Miss Shirou is your childhood friend. After you ascend the throne, it will be inconvenient for her to stay in Foguang City?"
"Yes. Ancestral rules. Few people know the identity of Sister Shi Rou. ”
Twenty-four miles away, under the deliberate acceleration of the old man who was driving the car, it would soon arrive. The town is large and surrounded by walls.
It's very simple to find Shi Rou, she just got married today, and she must still be holding a wedding banquet in the evening. There is also the surname of the groom's officer.
There was no one on the street, and the two of them searched for the place where the lights were most lively. It was a small courtyard with three bungalows. The sound of drinking five or six kept coming from Licheng.
asked the man who greeted the guest outside the door, and the groom's official was surnamed "Mao"!
The Brahmin King wanted to go in directly, but Xiang Xing said, "Don't worry. Look at mine. ”
Xiang Xing stepped forward and said to the person who greeted the guest: "Xiang Sheng, Luo Nu, the bride Shi Rou's friend." I went to the bride's house before I learned the good news, and I came to congratulate him. Ha...... It's a casual gift. "Xiang Xing never thought that he would be able to participate in the wedding banquet, and the gift was naturally a preparation in the space ring.
The man who kept the gift list sang: "Friends Xiang Sheng, Luo Nu." Fifty taels of gold, a piece of fine silk cloth, and several delicate pastries. ”
The welcoming guy said, "Two, please feel free inside." ”
"Good!"
The snow in the courtyard has been cleared for a long time, and there are fires burning in several places, and the temperature is not bad.
There were a lot of guests, noisy giggling and chatting, children running around, and some even playing with snowballs. When it is accidentally thrown on the table, it is greeted by the stinky cries of adults and the innocent laughter of children.
The cold winter night is very boring, and it is rare to have happy events, and everyone wants to have a lot of excitement. Therefore, when Xiang Xing and the Brahmin king came, the wedding feast had not yet begun.
The lively atmosphere brought a smile on the face of the Brahmin king: "I have never been to a wedding." Hee-hee, it's so lively. ”
Xiang Xing pulled her to find the corner and sat down: "Keep a low profile." You are noble, don't spoil the atmosphere. ”
"Oh......" King Brahmin was a little disappointed, but she still wanted to have fun with the guests and children.
Sitting with them were several women, with small babies in their arms, talking to each other about the birth and raising of children. The king of brahmanas craned his neck and looked into the arms of a woman beside him. The little guy was wrapped in a thick quilt, his big watery eyes were open to the left and right, and small bubbles were blowing on his mouth.
On a whim, the king of brahmins said to the woman, "Hello. The child is so cute, can I hug it?"
The woman looked up and down at the king of Brahmin, dressed in simple clothes, not like a big family, but with a beautiful face, and big eyes that seemed to have water dripping out: "Yes......! Be careful, my little baby is very skinny. ”
The king of Brahmins tried many times before he took the baby from the woman's hand, and with a grin, he grimaced and said, "How old are the boys and girls?
"Boy, it's just over 100 days, and I haven't thought of a name. ”
He returned the baby to the woman and said, "Do you mind if I give him a name?"
The woman hesitated for a moment, then said, "It's okay, let's use it as a reference." My husband's family name ......"
Before the baby's father's surname could be spoken, the Brahmin king preemptively said, "Zhu Xingluo, how is it?"
The woman rolled her eyes: "Zhu Xingluo...... Hehe, thank you so much. ”
The Brahmin king said innocently: "You're welcome!"
Xiang Xing whispered helplessly: "Why don't you name someone regardless of the child's father's surname? ”
"I don't know...... What should I do? I can't take it back, can I?"
"Lord of the Western Regions, naturally you can't take back your words. Forget it, forget it, people won't use it. ”
When the auspicious time came, the guests took their seats, and the drinks began to come up one after another. There is a large pot in the middle of each table, and below it is a charcoal fire, and the soup prepared by the chef is boiling in the pot, and the same side dishes surround it. In such weather, accompanied by heavy snow in the open air, come with chopsticks, not to mention how refreshing the taste is.
According to the custom of the Western Regions, after the wine and food are served, the bride and groom will come out to toast the guests. But until the halfway point of the wedding feast, the bridegroom and groom were not seen.
The king of Brahmins could not wait any longer, so he made up an excuse at will and left the table. Xiang Xing was afraid of an accident and left with her.
The bridegroom's house is not large, with three tiled rooms, and the king of Brahmins comes directly to the wedding room.
A "bang-bang" knock on the door silenced the entire courtyard.
"Hey, what's the matter with you two, have you drunk too much?" said a relative and friend of the groom's family.
Xiang Xing stood behind the Brahmin King: "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry." It's dark and snowy, and we have to rush back. Can you let us meet the bride and say a few words!"
"Sorry, friend. When the bride came, she was caught in the wind and could not see the wind. ”
The Brahmin King said, "It's all right. Let's go in and say a few words and go!"
The man said angrily: "If you say you can't see it, you can't see it, why are there so many things?"
The brahmin king said again, kicked open the door of the room, and dodged in.
"What a guts. Don't look where this is!" several strong men rushed up, trying to take them down.
Xiang Xing blocked the door and said, "Don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive." We're not here to make trouble. ”
Red candles were burning in the wedding room, and the bride was sitting on the marriage bed with a red veil on her head. The king of brahmins jumped over at once: "Sister Rou, I have come to see you!" The bride did not react and did not move.
"Sister Rou, it's me. Don't you remember?" lifted the red veil, and the Brahmin king was shocked, "Ah......h
