Chapter 14: Change

The sun was moving into the middle. The small alley in front of the house is becoming more and more crowded.

An Xingguo hurriedly finished the paint on the ground, took out a long string of firecrackers and hung them on the eaves, and then turned into the backyard to help. Several tables had already been set up in the courtyard, and Annan was busy evading the guests, and they were seated one by one.

In the backyard, more than a dozen new busy workers hired by the An family for the wedding banquet are burning dishes for nearly 100 people under the guidance of Mrs. An.

Although guests are welcomed from noon, the official banquet is held at sunset, so there is no need to rush it. In an atmosphere full of joy, Zhao Wu'an, who was wearing a fiery red wedding dress, was standing by the door with An Guangmao, greeting the guests who came to send congratulatory gifts.

After all, this is in Qingdi Township, the guests who came to congratulate, except for a few people like Zhang Chen who have the intention to repay Zhao Wuan's kindness, most of the others are close to An Guangmao, and they have watched An Qing grow up since he was a child.

In just half an hour, Zhao Wu'an was forced to drink seven or eight glasses of spirits, and at the behest of many teenagers who came with sticks at the behest of his parents to ask for advice, Hu Buxi and Duan Taoli and others who came with him saw it in their eyes, and they really couldn't cry or laugh.

Zhao Wu'an's martial arts are all over the world, and he has been trained in countless life and death battles, and he fights with these teenagers, but he can't make the family lose face too much, and it is really difficult to deal with it.

Every time he wins in danger, the crowd of onlookers erupts into a burst of cheers, praising An Guangmao again and again for finding a capable son-in-law. An Guangmao had no choice but to nod yes with a smile.

Taking advantage of the gap between several fathers and An Guangmao's chatter and laughter, Dailou Duyun quietly approached Zhao Wu'an and said sarcastically in a low voice: "If you are too lazy to deal with it, say hello, I will let these hairy boys roll on the ground a few times, so as to ensure that the suspicion does not fall on you, and you can still be quiet." ”

Zhao Wu'an gave him a disdainful look.

"Come on, groom, and then point me to this idle boy in my family!" another elder in the crowd pushed the young man next to him out of the crowd and laughed.

The young man seemed to be sweating slightly from nervousness, and he held a wooden knife in a thoughtful manner, and said cautiously: "My father has an order, so it can be regarded as a bit more lively...... Thank you for your understanding. ”

Zhao Wu'an smiled: "It's okay, it's okay. ”

Huaixi wedding customs, lively is in the festival of congratulatory gifts, the groom is difficult. There are those who give gifts well, and there are those who drag and don't give them, and they seem to be smashing the field, but it's just a lively picture. Although Zhao Wuan is not good at socializing, he can still hold the scene.

So there was a lot of trouble for a while, and the guests and hosts were happy.

When the sun sank to the West Mountain, Daohe's team was nearing the end. An Guangmao and An Nan welcomed everyone into the courtyard and sat down separately, while Zhao Wuan stood outside the door until the last moment according to the rules.

The courtyard was full of people, except for Duan Taoli, Hu Buxi and Dailou Duyun, only Zhao Wu'an, who was dressed in red, was left outside the door.

An Guangmao poked his head out from behind the door and said kindly: "I've worked hard for you for half a day, come in and rest for a while, it's about to go to the church." ”

Zhao Wu'an nodded, and said to the three people around him: "You guys go in too, you don't have to be formal, just treat it as my friend and sit at a table." ”

Hu Buxi and Duan Taoli both nodded yes, and Dai Lou Duyun turned his head with a complicated face: "I didn't expect you guy, the wedding banquet would be held earlier than me......

"You should get married early, so as not to harm Miao Jiang's sons again. Zhao Wu'an was expressionless and pushed him hard behind his back.

Dai Lou Duyun half-pushed and half-entered the courtyard on the spot.

Duan Taoli blushed, and when he passed in front of Zhao Wu'an, he whispered, "Brother Wu'an...... When you get married, don't forget the peaches. Ah, Momoko will not stand still, but will do her best to achieve the goal of recovering the country......"

Zhao Wu'an smiled and touched her head.

In the end, it was Hu Buxi's turn, this guy still had that beaming face, squeezing his eyebrows at Zhao Wu'an: "Boss, you have to hurt An Wazi on a candle night in the cave room." ”

An Guangmao, who was standing aside, looked embarrassed for a while. Zhao Wuan showed no mercy, kicked Hu Buxi in the ass, and kicked him into the yard.

Seeing this, An Guangmao smiled bitterly: "Hu Daxia is not a greedy and slippery person, and I know this. ”

"He's just a flamboyant tongue and doesn't have to give face. ”

After Zhao Wu'an finished speaking, he said solemnly: "Senior An, Wu'an has an important matter, and before getting married, I have to inform you no matter what." ”

An Guangmao was stunned, and his expression became solemn.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

The firecrackers at the door exploded ninety-nine times, and Annan just happened to carry the wine jar to fill the full bottle with clear liquor. Helpers bring plates of fragrant food from the backyard and walk through the tables.

Zhao Wu'an was dressed in red, standing proudly in front of the hall, and in the courtyard behind him, the guests were full of people.

The red candles in the hall flickered, and the joy was reflected in the eyes. A shrine that has not been used for many years was placed on the main hall, wiped clean, and then covered with a big red tablecloth that was dragged to the ground, and three high incense, melons and fruits were offered.

An Guangmao and his wife sat side by side on the upper seat.

There were seven seats in the courtyard, and the hall was filled with four tables. People like Hu Buxi and Duan Taoli were stained with the groom's light and were able to sit in the hall.

Zhao Wu'an stood quietly in front of the stairs. It wasn't until he heard the cheers of the guests around him that he raised his head.

The door of the inner room was half open to the outside, and the girl with a big red hijab was dressed in bright red, supported by An Xingguo, and walked out of it.

The candle shadow shook red, and a faint fragrance came from the evening breeze, refreshing people's hearts.

Zhao Wu'an couldn't help but go out of his mind.

It should be because of all the hair tied up, An Qing's phoenix crown looked a little too high, and a cloth cover could not completely cover the entire face, revealing a ruddy and small earlobe, on which a crystal jade hung on it.

It should have been something he had given her outside Hangzhou. Zhao Wu'an has always been penniless, so he still took Hu Buxi's private money on his own initiative, and then picked a pendant with Dailou Sangyu in the market for an afternoon.

I don't see her wearing it on weekdays, but I can't forget to turn it out from under the box on such days.

The bride appeared, and it stands to reason that the bridegroom had to leave.

Zhao Wu calmed down, tried to take straight steps, and walked into the hall.

An Xingguo sent An Qing to the opposite side of him, and stepped aside.

The distance between the two was only two or three feet, and Zhao Wu'an could even smell the scent of fat powder on her body.

"Worship heaven and earth!" came the shouts of someone from behind him.

Zhao Wu'an and An Qing bowed to the shrine together.

"Second worship high hall!"

Zhao Wu'an took a step over, helped An Qing to turn to An's father and mother, and then let go of his hand and bowed deeply again.

The two elders glanced at each other, smiling with tears.

"Husband and wife worship each otherβ€”"

Zhao Wu'an took two steps back, and An Qing also turned around.

At a table not far from them, Hu Buxi, who was squinting at Zhao Wu'an, while secretly stuffing peanuts into his mouth, suddenly frowned.

Among the few people at the same table with him, Dailou Duyun drank the banquet wine for a long time, and had no intention of watching the ceremony. However, Duan Taoli found Hu Buxi's abnormality with sharp eyes.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

What can make Hu Buxi frown and feel wrong must not be a trivial matter, and Duan Taoli does not dare to ignore it.

Hu Buxi just frowned and didn't speak.

Zhao Wu'an and An Qing bowed down at the same time.

Zhang Chen straightened his clothes and stood up calmly.

"Licheng!"

Before the words fell, a large hole suddenly broke open on the roof of the Anjia hall, and a gray shadow fell.

Hu Buxi suddenly opened his eyes wide and said, "Boss, beware!"

He propped up the table with one hand and wanted to pounce on Zhao Wu'an. The rest of the guests also felt bad and got up one after another.

But Hu Buxi didn't touch Zhao Wu'an.

With a "bang", the gray shadow suddenly exploded, and the choking smoke filled the entire hall in an instant. The figures of Zhao Wu'an and An Qing were also submerged in the fog and disappeared.

As soon as Duan Taoli stood up, he was choked by the smoke, and he coughed violently at the moment, and he couldn't even stand up straight.

"Hold your breath. A cold voice came from overhead. Then a purple sleeve stood in front of him, as if to drive away the gray mist.

Duan Taoli was stunned.

"The fog is slightly poisonous, and the more you cough, the more you inhale it. ”

Duan Taoli got anxious: "I don't need you to remind ......" As he spoke, he took a sharp breath and coughed even more violently.

Just as she was out of breath, Dai Lou Duyun directly covered her mouth. Duan Taoli's eyes immediately widened and he struggled to resist, but he was still tightly held by him and couldn't break free.

The smoke gradually dissipated.

The candles were all extinguished, the night was dark, the moonlight poured down from the holes in the roof, and the hall was covered with a thick layer of hoarfrost.

Even the wedding robe on Zhao Wu'an's body seemed to have changed back to the white clothes he often wore, and he couldn't see the difference.

The bride across from him was nowhere to be found.

Zhao Wu'an's expression was calm.

There was silence in the room.

He suddenly shouted: "Hu Buxi, hand over the sword!"

Hu Buxi reacted immediately, grabbed the sword box placed beside him and threw it at Zhao Wu'an.

Zhao Wu'an caught it, and then as soon as he stepped on the ground, he rose up, turned over and jumped onto the roof.

The moonlight is thousands of miles, Qingdi Township is still quiet, where can you still see the shadow of the sneak attacker.

Zhao Wu'an gritted his teeth secretly, and the hand holding the sword box was bruised.

"Boss, where is that person?" Hu Buxi also quickly grabbed the knife and climbed up.

"Gone. Zhao Wu'an said lightly.

"Then is it just for him to run away like this?" Hu Buxi was shocked.

"Naturally not!" Zhao Wu'an gritted his teeth and said, "But in a few breaths, even if he has wings, he can't fly far! Half of the high-ranking friends in Qingdi Township here will search together! I don't believe that I can't find him!"

He stood on the roof, but his voice clearly reached the ears of the guests in the courtyard. Everyone exchanged their heads for a while, only to know that someone had taken advantage of the commotion just now to rob the bride.

After understanding the situation, it was soon filled with outrage. How can An Qing say that she is also the daughter of Qingdi Township, and her first wedding night was robbed by someone, what is going on?

All of a sudden, men, women, and children, they went out and scattered.

The glimmer of torches gradually rose into the night.

Zhao Wu'an stood silently on the roof, trembling all over.
