Chapter 137: The Unfinished Wedding
The people discussed for a long time until the afternoon dispersed. Li Yanyi was going to arrange for Meixue to eat, but Liu Banxian said: "Apprentice, you wait, I have something to tell you for the teacher." ”
Miyuki is a smart person in Bingxue, and as soon as she heard this, she immediately retired, leaving only the master and apprentice in the house.
Li Yan said: "Master, I have been missing your old man overseas. Are you feeling better?"
Liu Banxian smiled faintly and said, "It's okay to be a teacher." Let me ask you, what is the character of this Princess Jingren?"
Li Yan didn't know what he meant, but after thinking about it, he replied truthfully: "Meixue girl is not only powerful, but also gentle and polite. It's a blessing for us to have her to help!"
Liu Banxian nodded, and asked again: "I heard that you are known as the 'One-Armed Divine Sword' in Fusang Country, which is very famous, but is there such a thing?"
Li Yan keenly sensed that there was a hint of reproach in Master's words, and immediately knelt down and said, "Master, if the disciple does something wrong, please punish him!"
Liu Banxian looked at him a little distressed, sighed, pulled his arm and asked, "Li Yan, you tell the truth, do you have a crush on this Fusang princess?"
Li Yan was startled, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, there is no such thing......
Liu Banxian knew that his apprentice was a non-lying disposition, so he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Apprentice, who you like and who you want to marry is your own business."
But Zhi'er's child saved your life, I have known you for many years, and he is virtuous, so you are a little fortunate not to marry someone. ”
Li Yan was embarrassed, his face was red to the roots of his ears, and he scratched his head and said, "Master, what are you talking about?"
Liu Banxian's face sank: "What, are you out of breath?
Li Yan shook his head like a rattle again.
Liu Banxian said: "Li Yan, the eldest husband is expensive from beginning to end. If Zhi'er didn't have an interest in you, why did she go to this barren land with you and make a safe village? Now that you are a famous hero overseas, you can't see one and love the other, and be that incorruptible and shameless person!"
Li was sweating profusely and said yes again and again.
Liu Banxian saw that he was sincere, so he softened his face and said: "As a teacher, I also know that you are not that kind of person, but I just remind you of two sentences." Well...... I see that it is rare for you to come back, so how about taking this opportunity to marry Zhi'er?"
Li Yan was startled and stammered, "This ...... I haven't asked Zhi'er about this...... I don't know if she's happy or not. ”
Liu Banxian said: "What do you ask? Since ancient times, major marriage events have been the words of the matchmaker at the behest of your parents, as long as you nod your head, you will propose marriage as a teacher." ”
Li Yan was forced to come here, and he couldn't help but agree, so he could only nod. Liu Banxian stroked his beard with satisfaction: "Okay, wait for the teacher's letter." ”
He went straight to Zhi'er. Zhi'er was hiding in the laundry room and secretly shed tears, and when she heard her master's proposal, she immediately turned her sadness into joy.
Zhi'er's parents are both deceased, and Liu Banxian is also her parent, and Zhang Luo is also Zhang Luo. asked Yan Xin to be the matchmaker, and went through the procedure again before the matter was decided.
The news of Li Yan's marriage to Chen Zhi'er immediately became known throughout the city. But people are not surprised, in their eyes, the two have long been a couple.
On this day, on the eve of the wedding, Zhi'er's room was decorated with lights and congratulatory gifts from people. A few girls are helping her prepare for tomorrow's things, and Miyuki is also on the list.
Everyone was busy until late at night, and finally they were ready to stop, and they got up to say goodbye. Zhi'er took Miyuki's hand and said, "Sister Miyuki...... I, I'm a little panicked, can you stay with me?"
Miyuki smiled softly: "Okay, as long as you don't think I'm nagging." ”
The two went back to the house, and Miyuki helped her get dressed again. But seeing the phoenix crown and the glow of the clouds, the gold and red contrast, set off Zhi'er more and more delicate, I couldn't help but admire: "Sister Zhi'er, you look so good in this bride's clothes!"
Zhi'er suddenly asked, "Sister, don't you Fusang people wear this kind of clothes when you get married?"
Miyuki said, "Well, the clothes of our Fuso people are called kimonos. The dress of a woman when she gets married is called 'innocent'. ”
"Unsullied?"
"Well, it's a white dress, and it can't have a hint of other colors. ”
Zhi'er was taken aback, thinking that it was not lucky to wear plain clothes on a happy day. But he did not say this, but asked again: "Where then do you worship heaven and earth? Are you also at home?"
Miyuki shook her head: "No, most Fuso people choose to get married at the shrine and can get blessed by the gods. ”
She smiled lightly: "I am a shrine maiden of the shrine, and I have presided over several weddings. ”
When Zhi'er heard this, her eyes were immediately full of yearning.
In Daliang, the wedding is often presided over by a respected old man, and I can't imagine that a woman in Fusang can also take on this responsibility. Who wouldn't want to be a witness to that happy and sacred moment?
So she asked, "Good sister, I'm lonely." Can you tell me something interesting about the abbot's wedding?"
Miyuki nodded, "Okay." Well...... I'll tell you about my sister's wedding.
You know, I'm royalty. The Fuso royal family has a rule: unless she marries a wealthy family, once a woman marries, she will be deemed to have automatically given up her identity and will be cut off from the royal family.
But my sister just liked a poor boy who sold bamboo strips. Although the young man was poor, he was very kind-hearted, and he supported three old men at home who had nothing to do with him. That's why my sister fell in love with him.
But how could my father, the Emperor, agree? When he found out, he was furious, and immediately separated them, or else he would kill the young man. ”
Zhi'er exclaimed "ah". Miyuki apologized, "I'm sorry to scare you." Tomorrow is your day of great joy, and I shouldn't talk about that. ”
Zhi'er couldn't help but be curious, and asked, "Sister Meixue, what happened later?"
Miyuki waved her hand and said, "That's it, it's better not to talk about it." ”
Zhi'er grabbed her arm and said, "Good sister, just tell me about it." ”
Seeing that she was sincere, Miyuki continued, "Of course, my sister didn't want her lover to be killed, so she ran with him to the shrine where I practiced overnight and asked me to officiate at the wedding. ”
Zhi'er asked suspiciously, "The two of them got engaged to the marriage themselves?"
"Hmm. ”
"No parents?"
"My father is bent on opposing it, so what will be the order of my parents. ”
"What about matchmakers? There should always be matchmakers, right?"
"No, just two people who love each other. ”
This gentle sentence brought Zhi'er a great shock like heaven and earth hanging upside down.
At that time, the vast majority of people could not decide their own marriage. Only a very small number of people dare to touch this set of rituals that has lasted for thousands of years. Some people curse those people, but some people secretly envy them. Angela Chan is one of them.
She asked cautiously, "And then...... How's it going?" for fear of hearing the end of the martyrdom between the two.
Fortunately, Miyuki smiled: "Don't worry, my sister has left the royal family, so she has nothing to do with my father." She and my brother-in-law should be an ordinary couple in a mountain in Fuso!"
I don't know why, Zhi'er was suddenly a little moved, and couldn't help but say: "That's good, that's good!"
Miyuki said: "In the past, in Fuso, women were accessories of men, and they couldn't have their own ideas. In the words of your Han people, it is: marry a chicken with a chicken and marry a dog with a dog.
But I never understood why women don't have the right to choose their lovers, so I want to change that era so that everyone can live their lives the way they want.
Your husband Li Yan has helped us do such a great thing!"
"The right to choose your lover" and "live your life the way you like".
Since she was born, no one has ever told her such a thing, and she has never been exposed to such free and bold ideas. These words opened her heart like an initiation. She stood like a child in front of a cave with treasures she'd never seen before.
Money and wealth can certainly be popular and moving, but the most touching thing is often just a certain idea.
But suddenly, Zhi'er was taken aback, and suddenly asked, "Sister Meixue, do you have anyone you like?"
This question made Miyuki stunned, and two red clouds suddenly flew up her cheeks. She bowed her head and said, "I...... I'm a shrine maiden, a man who serves God, and I can't get married!"
But everyone can see that she has already secretly agreed to someone.
It's late at night, and Miyuki finally takes her leave.
Zhi'er looked at herself in the bronze mirror, bright and beautiful, and it was the best age for a girl. Isn't it the happiest thing in the world to marry the person you love the most at the best age? Maybe during the day, Zhi'er still thinks the same way, but her mind has changed now.
She will only feel fulfilled if the person she loves the most is also happy.
But is Li Remnant happy?
She recalled the bits and pieces of the past, and the days when she and Li Yan were most in love and talked to the most were the times they spent together when they were children. At that time, they discussed how to catch gnats, stick birds, and catch birds, and often talked for an afternoon. It was also the era when he was the most cheerful and had the most flying personality.
But then his father was killed, and he was locked up in a cold, damp underground. The daily heavy work and the contemptuous eyes of others wore down all her temperament.
She became a qualified servant, and she especially knew how to read words and feelings, how to make compromises, and how to avoid persecution by pretending to be deaf and dumb. But I forgot how to speak out and how to fight for my rights.
Her smile is a little restrained, and she can't show a sunny smile like Miyuki.
At this moment, Zhi'er felt deeply inferior.
Who is Li Yan now? A hero who is famous overseas. I heard that the people of Fusang were grateful for his kindness, and they spontaneously set up a shrine for him. But the gap in identity is still secondary, and after coming back this time, Zhi'er obviously felt that Li Yan had changed.
I can't say where it is, it's just that spirit. He is high-spirited, optimistic, and exudes a sun-like temperature. Unfortunately, the feeling I give to others is very similar to that of Miyuki Sakura.
That's why when they first returned to Ping'an City, they were angry for no reason. Because they look more like a match made in heaven.
Even if Li Yan really married such a self, would he be happy? If his happiness was based on the misfortune of the person he loved the most, would she be able to accept it with peace of mind?
In Zhi'er's opinion, that would be a bit too selfish.
She wept at the red candle and the big word "Xi", and finally took off the phoenix crown and xia veil.
