The sun is shining, and the red and bright hiking trail is gorgeous. √

All the way to the red cloth carpet, from the mountainside to the small bamboo house on the top of the mountain.

More than 1,000 large mahogany boxes are placed on both sides of the mountain road along the stone steps. The golden gold, against the backdrop of the slanting sun, turned into two festive golden red streamers. In front of the small bamboo house on the top of the mountain, golden bracelets, golden bowls, and golden flowers are stacked into several hills and piled up outside the door. An exaggeratedly long artillery battle, from the bamboo gate of the small bamboo house, all the way down the red cloth carpet, to the mountainside square...

At this time, there were very few people on the mountainside.

Sparsely, except for the hundreds of old Taoist and Confucian people who were sad, the rest of the Seven Star Wentian disciples, along with those ordinary people, were driven to the bottom of the mountain. Hundreds of large surrounding tables, each with 16 pairs of chopsticks and two big red candles, neatly placed in front of the door of the building. The big red happy word is pasted on the left and right of the scripture building, and one hundred and ten red lanterns are hung high. Cannonballs, unburned red incense, quietly settled in all directions...

This is the pomp and circumstance before the wedding feast.

As long as it will be a while, the old man in the small bamboo hut on the top of the mountain nodded slightly. Whether you like it or not, happy or not, it will become a sea of festivity. However, at this moment, no one in the mountainside square is ready to welcome the festivities. Because, Lord Cao Ge has already told the big guy the final answer to this matter...

That is, the old man, he will never click this head!

Call...

The wind is getting colder, and the evening wind is rising.

The etiquette that should be prepared for talking about relatives is now ready.

Peony also let go of Xia Xun's palm not long ago, and under the leadership of the Cao Pavilion Lord and the knife master, he returned to the small bamboo house on the top of the mountain. And Xia Yuan, who was originally furious, could only pick a piece of bamboo casually when he saw that he couldn't do anything, put it in his mouth, and suddenly changed back to that ruffian appearance.

"Do you know what you're doing?"

"Yes. ”

"That's it..."

Bang bang...

Xia Yuan stood in front of the mountaineering trail with a bamboo piece, glanced at Xia Xun behind him, and said, "Then I'll sue you, Uncle Yuan didn't eat breakfast and lunch for you today, and he is still hungry." Don't let me miss dinner anymore, won't you?"

Xia Xun scraped the bridge of his nose and said embarrassedly: "If it doesn't work, I invite you to Yueyang Tower to eat." ”

The bamboo pieces were left behind, and Xia Yuan said impatiently: "I want to eat here." ”

"Well, I'd better do my best. ”

"Hey..."

Helpless, helpless.

Xia Yuan turned his head weakly. He has no way to deal with this nephew's temperament. To say that he is indecisive is actually not wrong at all. Perhaps, it is really the simple heart that has been raised in that village for more than ten years...

Everything is ready, only a wisp of the east wind is owed.

Xia Yuan waved his palm behind him casually, and shouted weakly, "Let's go..."

"Light the cannon to welcome the joy, come to the door to welcome the family. ”

"Flowers bloom richly. ”

"Happy events are coming. ”

Bang Bang Bang!

Xia Yuan ordered, Mo Xian and Xia Hou, who had already taken the big incense and prepared on the side, shouted an auspicious word each, and hurriedly lit the two exaggerated artillery battles...

The sound of artillery battles began, the red paper danced, and the birds flew high in the mountains.

Under hundreds of gazes, Xia Yuan was in front, carrying a huge package on his back, leading Xia Xun behind him, following the trajectory of the artillery explosion, and slowly walked into the mountaineering trail. Things are here to come, a farce of chaos is about to usher in the final point, and it is coming to an end...

The red sunset, the red mountain road, the golden flowers bloom on both sides, and the remaining smoke soars. Looking at the uncle and nephew who were walking up the mountain, the taste on the mountainside seemed to be a little lighter. At this point, a lot of worries and reluctance seem to be less important. No matter what the outcome is, the old man on the top of the mountain will inevitably make a good choice.

People and smoke walk, halfway up the mountain, the smoke and nitrate from firecrackers spread with the wind for nine days...

The top of the mountain, a small bamboo house.

The huge hall was gloomy.

The old man had a serious demeanor and sat upright on the Taishi chair, without much emotion. The lazy rooster lay under the old man's gray robe, squinting half-squinting as if he were sleeping. The master of Cao Pavilion and the sword master stood behind the Taishi chair on the left and right, with a sense of pity and pity, without too much expression. And here, the most emotionally rich is only the peony that buries his head and stands in the center of the hall.

The small mouth is slightly pouted, the appearance of puffing up, the face is full of resentment, and the eyebrows are low.

With the noisy sound of cannonballs, it was heard from the mountainside all the way to the windowsill. The old man, who had been sitting there for a long time without saying a word, stroked his lips and said slowly, "Go back to the room." ”

"I'm not going back. ”

“......”

has always been a well-behaved apprentice, but today he actually went to the honorific title and directly bumped into Mr. This is something that has never happened in this small bamboo house for more than ten years. The old man's ensuing displeasure and anger were inevitable. It's just that now he has endured it in his stomach and won't leak it.

The old man said slowly: "It's useless for you to stand here, this is what I can't allow." ”

"Why?" asked Peony.

Bang Bang Bang!

There was the sound of artillery outside the window, and gradually, it became louder.

The old man replied slowly: "For your own good." ”

"But I don't feel good at all. With a resentful gaze, Peony looked up and said.

"It doesn't matter now, it's okay later. The old man looked at the pitiful gaze of his little apprentice and said slowly.

"It's not good now, how can you be sure that it will be okay in the future. "Big eyes, looking at the old man's deep eyes, did not blink.

The old man smiled slightly, silently, without any smile. It is impossible to tell whether this is ridicule or self-deprecation.

"Because I'm standing taller than you, I can see more than you. ”

"Why the hell is that?"

The same question was asked twice by Peony in just a few conversations. However, the root of the problem is different. Before, she asked why the old man didn't allow it. Now she asked what the old man had seen.

The old man gently picked up his index finger and swung it towards both ends.

"You don't have to know. As far as you're concerned, even if you know, it's not necessarily good. ”

Bang Bang Bang!

The smell of gunpowder wafting in outside the window was already very strong and pungent. The sound of the cannon battle almost drowned out the old man's deep voice. It's very irritating...

"Then you're being unreasonable!"

"Eh, little peony, how can you talk to Mr. like this?"

Peony shouted aggrievedly, and the knife master behind the old man hurriedly reminded.

A family that has lived together for more than ten years, the knife master is very familiar with the character of peony. Don't look at this usual peony, it is a shy little girl's family. If she really recognizes something, that stubborn temper is something that no one can do with her. And now the peony is just one thing. If you don't pull it quickly, it is also unknown whether the peony will start next...

"You're all unreasonable!

Sure enough, it was said at first glance.

I saw that Peony's little hand was clenched into a fist, his eyes seemed to be shining, and he shouted coquettishly when he raised his throat: "If you don't tell me anything, you know that it is not allowed, it is not allowed, and it is not reasonable at all!"

"Tsk, little peony..."

The knife master was about to speak again, but the old man sitting in front of him waved his hand and stopped his words.

Looking at the peony with fixed eyes, the old man's serious face couldn't help but feel a sense of pity, and said slowly: "Actually, I told you that you didn't take it to heart..."

The small mouth was held back, and the swaying in the eyes stopped, and Peony asked, "When?"

The sound of the cannonball outside was so loud that the people inside the bamboo hut couldn't hear each other's voices clearly.

The old man said helplessly: "The night you cooked in the kitchen..."

Knock!

Before the old man finished speaking, a loud explosion exploded, and the whole small bamboo house shook. Outside the bamboo house, the noisy sound of artillery for a long time also stopped.

The echo echoed in the hall. Gray-white smoke, a thin layer, drifted in through the window.

The mountaineers have reached the top.

"Hey..."

With a long sigh, the old man said helplessly, "Stand aside." ”

The outsider has arrived. Peony knows how to be proportional and knows that this is not the time to entangle. Nodding, he lightly held his little hand, walked a few steps, and stood quietly on the right hand side of the Cao Pavilion Lord.

After the peony stood up, the old man waved his sleeves towards the main entrance of the bamboo house...

Rush!

The sleeves are waved lightly, but the wind is strong!

The wind is silent, like a hammer. Straight out of the small bamboo gate that is not very sturdy!

"Poof~"

"Papa~"

I saw a "poof", and the fragile small door panel, as if it had been kicked hard, was directly kicked outside, knocking down a small gold mountain piled up of gold.

Outside the bamboo house,

The smoke was thick and the red paper was fluttering.

"It's not easy..."

Looking at the bamboo door that was kicked in half by the palm wind, Xia Yuan's forehead oozed some sweat. Xia Xun pointed to the new green shirt on his body, and asked carefully, "Uncle Yuan, why don't you wear my clothes?"

"Tsk..."

Glancing angrily, Xia Yuan quickly turned back to the ruffian's temperament: "Forget it, Uncle Yuan, I have very thick skin, and I can't die." You're done with it. ”

"Spit ~"

After speaking, Xia Yuan spit out the small bamboo piece on his mouth, stretched the package behind him, and took a step and squeezed into the small bamboo house.

Yes, that's right, squeezed in.

His majestic body couldn't walk into this small doorway normally, not to mention that he was carrying a package bigger than him behind him. Xia Yuan squeezed in front, Xia Xun pushed in the back, and smashed the fragile door edge by a small half, and this Xia Yuan completely passed the bamboo door...

Looking at the majestic body that was coming, no one in the hall spoke. Just stand quietly, sit, watch. Except for a little excitement in Peony's eyes, the other three were all pitiful.

"Junior Xia Yuan, I have seen the wise master. ”

"The younger Xia Xun has seen Grandpa Zhi. ”

The two walked to the center of the hall, clasped their hands into fists one after another, and bowed. The old man who was saluted didn't say or do anything, just sat there straight.

After the salute, Xia Yuan stood on his waist pole, and his hands clenched into fists without putting them down. Towards the old man sitting up, he smiled and said, "Over the years, how good is the wisdom master's body?"

"Hehe..."

Sneer...

The old man's stern face was filled with a cold smile.

"It was good, but it's not good, it's not good..."

“......”

The meaning of the old man's words, Xia Yuan understood very clearly. But how thick-skinned he is, that's well known. At this time, too, I didn't take what the old man said seriously. Holding his fist, he continued to laugh and said, "Tsk, the wise master is just laughing at this." Today is a good day, a good day and an auspicious day. This person is good, he is a talented woman. Good things are at your doorstep, so how can you be bad when you're old?"

"Oh, really?"
