Chapter 74 What is marriage?

Qin Mingxu looked up at me blankly.He didn't expect that I would say such words in public in order to excuse him.

Words are the lock on the door.

Since I said this, my marriage to him in this life has been confirmed.

Zheng Tai turned pale with anger and said: "Zhu Sangyu, you are talking nonsense! Since you are married to this man surnamed Qin, why do you want to get on my Zheng family's sedan chair? Everyone can testify that my Zheng family's sedan chair , was carried to the Qin family, what do you mean? "

The official thought for a while and asked: "Master Zheng's words are reasonable. The sedan chair does belong to the Zheng family. What can Mr. Yide Township say in defense?"

I smiled and asked, "Has Mr. Guan ever seen a newlywed whose bride had to lift her hijab before getting into the sedan chair to see whose family she belongs to?"

The official was stunned.

I said: "How do I know how Lord Zheng's sedan chair appeared in front of the Zhu Mansion? Mr. Qin and I are in love and we were about to get married. Lord Zheng's move is really puzzling. He uses his power to bully others. , the person who snatched the bride should be Lord Zheng."

"You, you, Zhu Sangyu, you clearly said that at the door of the winery that day..." Zheng Tai pointed at me.

I said, "Excuse me, what did I say?"

"Say, you figured it out."

"Yes, I have figured it out. I have figured it out and marry Mr. Qin."

Zheng Tai was choked and kept yelling angrily: "No businessman is a traitor, no businessman is a traitor, Zhu Sangyu, you thief woman! How dare you play tricks on me!"

The courtroom was noisy.

There was a dispute.

When the official saw this, he had the idea of ​​​​harming with Xini. He was shocked and left the hall.

The matter of "kidnapping" will not be settled.

Qin Mingxu and I walked out of the Yamen together.

He looked at me as if he hadn't been able to wake up from what I just said.

"Sang Yu, you shouldn't say that, it will harm your reputation." He said.

I looked at him. His light blue clothes had a bit of rust on them. The last touch of sunset, which was about to disappear, covered him like a shadow across a curtain.His eyes were like fishing fires by the river, bright and dark at times.

I walked towards the ferry.

He followed me silently.

It has rained a lot this year, and the water level in the canal has risen a lot. The green canal is full of greenery, swaying back and forth, as if it is trying to break through the confinement of the river embankment.The people from the Water Transport Yamen came with many servants to prevent floods at the ferry.

The willows beside the river embankment are floating in sorrow.

The evening breeze tonight is so gentle.

Light floral fragrance.

I said: "Mingxu, I can answer you now about what you told me last time. I am willing to marry you."

He took a few steps and said: "Sang Yu, I know that you said those words in court to understand my guilt. This was not your original intention. I have never taken advantage of others. I can wait. .Even when time passes, you will still be the Miss Zhu I met on the boat."

I stood by the willow tree and said, "People often say that there is an old man named Yuexia, who is responsible for holding the red thread of marriage in the world. Perhaps, when Old Man Yuexia was pulling the thread for me, he took a nap, and the red thread was not tied securely. It broke with just a light touch. I thought about what marriage is for a long time."

"It takes a journey to read the mountains, and the water surrounds the mountains for a lifetime; the wind waits for the clouds, and the clouds drift for a lifetime. In fact, it is easy for women to accept their fate. I brought the marriage certificate and narrowly escaped death to come to Yangzhou to get married. Along the way, I made up my mind , no matter who I marry, I will recognize him. If he is a dead person, I will keep the memorial card. If he is a living person, I will follow him. When I was a husband and wife with Cheng Huaishi, I wanted to grow old together. Some of the things he did, I I don’t understand, but I have always supported him. Even though I know that there will be thorns ahead, I can’t bear to extinguish his flame. I want to be a good wife. I just want to be a good wife. But he still divorced me. He didn’t Wish I could share the adversity with him. This became a thorn in my heart. This thorn never disappeared for a moment. But now, I suddenly figured it out——"

"He is my betrothed husband when I was young. I walked hand in hand with him. I have him in my heart, but there are also fireworks in the four seasons, three meals of tea and rice, my relatives around me, Zhujia Winery, the clouds in the morning, and the clouds in the evening. The setting sun in the sky, the drumming in the middle of the night. I cherish everything I want to cherish. If I want to live well, I must learn to let go. Maybe, this is what he wants to see. Isn’t it? "

It seems that this star is not last night.

As I talked, the corners of my eyes seemed to be washed by the waves of the canal, with the warmth of May in the south of the Yangtze River.

Qin Mingxu approached me and gently held my hand.

My fingers curled slightly, but I didn't refuse.

"Sang Yu, from now on, you have me for the fireworks in the four seasons, for the three meals a day, for the clouds in the morning, for the sunset in the evening, and for the drums late at night."

The next day, Feng Gao returned from Nanzhili.

Qin Mingxu held a family banquet at the Qin Mansion to discuss the date of the wedding.

Because I'm getting married again, I don't want to make a fuss about it, just keep it simple.

Qin Mingxu insisted on giving me a beautiful wedding.I knew he was trying to make up for what was missing in my first marriage.

I wish the family wine shop had a lot of money, my father enjoyed good fortune in his later years, and I gradually developed some true feelings for him.He and Lin Yue worked together to kick me out of the house in the past, so he felt guilty towards me and advocated for a big deal.

Mr. Qin is dead, and Cai Qingyao, in his capacity as Qin Mingxu, agreed on a wedding date with my father.

A group of people sat together, drinking and eating in a lively manner.

Feng Gao was both happy and silent. He drank more than ten bottles of Yunsi and rested on the rocks in the garden.

My father ordered Zhu Xifeng to invite a famous fortune teller in the city to predict the wedding date.

Finally, the sixth day of June was decided, which was auspicious.I followed the garden path of Qin Mansion and found Feng Gao.

There was a hint of drunkenness on his cheeks, and he looked at me with squinted eyes.

I said: "Shishang Liang, get up quickly and sleep on the couch."

He put his hands under his head and said with a smile: "Sister, I am so happy. You can go and are willing to take this step. I am always afraid that you will be alone."

I pulled him up.

He refused to get up.

"Sister, let me sleep among the flowers for a while. When people are asleep, they will have many beautiful dreams that cannot be reached. If you wake up, it will be difficult to dream back."

Cai Qingyao came over with a thin layer of quilt in his hand.

She covered Feng Gao with the quilt.

We kept it secret from her last time Feng Gao was imprisoned.She only knew that Feng Gao had been injured in martial arts on his face, and he kept saying: "You should be more careful, you should be more careful..."

Feng Gao suddenly hugged her waist and pressed his face against hers, like a child.

Cai Qingyao reached out and rubbed his head.

"Sister will be happy, right? Mother." He said these words carelessly.

Cai Qingyao said gently: "Yes. Sang Yu will be happy."

"That's great." He murmured and fell asleep with his pillow on Cai Qingyao.

Cai Qingyao stayed motionless and guarded him for a long time until he woke up.

Zhu Xifeng is more sensible than before, and he actually successfully negotiated business with several foreign businessmen who came back last time.

I gradually handed over some of the things on the cabinet to him.The cargo ships are transported by water, and he goes to the ferry to count them.Hua Lian watched from the side.

On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, something happened on the pier.

Every year during the Spring Festival, Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival, merchants in Yangzhou Commercial Port receive a lot of orders.The canal is packed with cargo ships.When a merchant jumped in line, Zhu Xifeng accepted his fate and refused to give in.A group of people got into a fight on the dock.

When Hua Lian saw that Zhu Xifeng had suffered a loss, he rushed forward with the intention of protecting his master.

The flower snake in the hand crawled out from the sleeve, spitting out snake letters, and wanted to bite people.

Those people have been immersed in shopping malls for many years, and none of them are vegetarians.He has a bunch of servants with vicious looks.

During the fight, there was a man holding a fork and going to catch the snake, shouting: "Stew her snake! Look how arrogant she will be in the future!"

After Zhu Xifeng heard this, he hugged the man's waist, opened his mouth and bit down.

The man wanted to break away from him.

He hugged her tightly and wouldn't let go, and the joints in his hands turned white.

The man cursed and hit Zhu Xifeng on the head with his fist.

Zhu Xifeng bit his mouth until his mouth was full of blood and his head was beaten, but he still didn't let go.

There was chaos on the pier.

After I heard the news and invited the government soldiers to come over, everyone stopped.

Hua Lian was slightly injured and rushed to Zhu Xifeng.

Zhu Xifeng let go of his hand and sat down on the ground. His head was covered with blood and he looked very scary.

I stepped forward and said, "Bring the young master home quickly and ask for a doctor."

Zhu Xifeng's eyes widened stupidly and he didn't move.

Hua Lian patted his face.He Fang grinned and cried loudly.

I scolded: "You are a man, what are you planning to do? You are crying! You have no future! If you dare to cause trouble, you should not be afraid of it."

He didn't seem to hear my words and just shouted: "I'm afraid he killed the snake that killed the girl... Wuwuwu... That snake is the baby of the girl. If it is gone, the girl will be unhappy..."

Hua Lian pushed him and said in a rough voice: "Snake is fine! There's no need to cry!"

The snake in her sleeve, like a human being, crawled to Zhu Xifeng and leaned against him docilely.

Zhu Xifeng was still afraid and did not dare to reach out and touch it.

Hua Lian scolded: "My boss is right, he has no future!"

Zhu Xifeng said harshly: "I'm not afraid!"

He bit the bullet and touched it. The snake crawled onto his arm, and his whole body was shaking like chaff.

The people around laughed.
