Marriage

[Marriage]

On July 15, it is a good time to offer sacrifices, but not to get married. Read

М

Sujia Village, located in the central part of the country, is in the autumn harvest season.

At nightfall, the last trace of red in the west was also swallowed up and melted into the dim sky.

Farmers who had worked hard all day walked home in groups of three or five, leading cows, pulling carts, and carrying sacks.

The sudden sound of suona startled the chirping of birds, and the people stopped and looked in the direction of the sound.

I saw a gray sedan chair with a crooked big red flower tied on it. It was carried by two men, trembling and hurried to the east end of the village.

The heavily made-up matchmaker swung her handkerchief, her bound feet were struggling to chase, but her face was piled with a professional fake smile. At first glance, it looked like a wooden mask painted with inferior oil paint at a temple fair.

Another person chased the sedan chair, playing the suona as he ran, as if someone was choking him to death, and the music was out of tune.

"Who would choose to get married today? Aren't they afraid of bad luck!"

"Who else could it be? Mr. Ning! He said he was dying, so he wanted to marry a wife to bring good luck!"

"Did Su Daqiang really sell his granddaughter for ten taels of silver?"

"He sold a granddaughter, but she wasn't Su Daqiang's own granddaughter!"

"That was..."

"His niece's granddaughter who came to him last year!"

"The one called Su Liang? To be honest, this name is too unlucky!"

...

The sedan chair squeaked and finally stopped before it fell apart.

The matchmaker knocked on the door loudly, but no one answered for a long time. Her old face fell, and the powder on her cheekbones fell down. She muttered, "Did you regret it?"

Accompanied by the loud sound of suona, the matchmaker leaned forward and raised her hands high, but the door suddenly opened, and her short and fat body rushed in and fell to the ground!

She rolled and crawled on the ground, and her fake smile was only half put together when a hard cloth bag fell into her arms.

"Hiss!" The matchmaker gasped in pain, grabbed the cloth bag, opened it and took a look. Her lips painted red were about to stretch to the back of her ears, "The bride is here, hurry up and get married at the auspicious time!"

"Get lost!" The thin old man with a dark face seemed to squeeze out this word from his teeth.

The matchmaker retreated with her neck shrunk, calling the suona player who carried the sedan chair, "Go, go, go!"

The old man stared at the dilapidated sedan chair outside the door, clenched and unclenched his fists, snorted coldly, slammed the door and went back.

The matchmaker ran to the west of the village with the money in her pocket. Suddenly, she heard the sound of hurried horse hooves approaching. She was so scared that she rolled over and fell into the bushes on the roadside. When she looked up, she saw a man and a horse galloping to the east.

Just a blurry back revealed a chilling deterrence. The matchmaker almost swallowed the curse that was about to blurt out.

Su Liang opened her eyes, and the surroundings were pitch black. She intuitively felt that she had arrived in the underworld.

The memory was clear, and she must not have reached the Naihe Bridge yet.

As a professional who came from a family of traditional Chinese medicine but joined the army, she might try to analyze the ingredients of Mengpo Soup later...

Thinking of this, Su Liang calmed down. People who die cannot be resurrected, so they have to accept their fate and wait for the staff of the underworld to lead the way to the Naihe Bridge and reincarnate.

The curtains swayed, and the night wind was cool.

Su Liang sneezed and wanted to pull open the curtain to see if it was Yama Palace outside.

Through the curtain, he caught a hand that seemed to be warm.

He was shocked. There were living people in the underworld?

The sedan curtain, which was not strong to begin with, fell down with a slight pull. Looking up, all he could see was the starry sky in the dark night, and a man who was close at hand.

His face was backlit, so he couldn't see clearly.

But those eyes were so beautiful! As if they were condensed from tiny starlights, they were still stunningly beautiful without any temperature.

"Get off the sedan." The voice was also nice.

But Su Liang felt that something was wrong...

His eyes moved down, and his eyes narrowed! Ancient costume?

The sedan curtain wrapped around the man's hand, and Su Liang held it tightly. He was stunned for a moment and forgot to let go. He realized that something was strange, so he pinched it twice again.

Although there was no skin contact, the touch was very good, and the slender fingers had distinct joints, which was suitable for playing the piano.

It was not a ghost, but a real living person.

Su Liang didn't show it on her face, but her heart was filled with turmoil: Is she still alive? Has she traveled through time?

"You and I are getting married today, it's time to get married." The man spoke again, his tone was indifferent, like frozen dead water in the cold winter.

Su Liang:... I'm, going...

The stern-faced old man rushed over, tore off the sedan curtain, forcibly separated the two, pulled off the red silk flower on the sedan, and scolded Su Liang to grab one end.

Su Liang silently held on, and then heard a sentence, "Young Master, 'time' has come!"

The voice was lowered, but the word "time" was deliberately emphasized, and the meaning was unclear.

There seemed to be the sound of horse hooves not far away.

Su Liang was dragged out, and before she could see what the young master looked like, her eyes went dark, and a veil blocked her sight.

"Lift your feet."

Su Liang stepped over the threshold and was led forward.

If she was not in a dream, it could only be a time travel.

But she did not receive any of the original owner's memories, and she had no idea of ​​the situation. The only thing that is certain is that the once strong body is now weak and powerless, and it is extremely unwise to resist or escape.

It doesn't matter if we get married, as long as we don't have a wedding night, everything can be discussed.

Thinking of this, she planned to figure out the situation first.

"First bow to heaven and earth."

Su Liang asked in a low voice, "Kneel?"

"No need." It was that very attractive young male voice again.

With beautiful eyes and a nice voice, he should not be ugly... Su Liang thought silently and bowed.

Hearing "Second bow to the parents", Su Liang turned around and continued to bow.

If she took off the hijab, she would see a tablet on the table, but there was no word on it.

"Couple greetings!"

Su Liang turned sideways, and then hit his head...

"The ceremony is completed! Congratulations, young master!"

But when Su Liang listened, this "congratulations" clearly revealed unconcealable depression and no joy at all.

He was taken into a room and sat down by the bed.

The silk flower lightly hit Su Liang's lap and then hung down. The man let go.

"You rest here." A cold voice.

"Oh." Su Liang responded subconsciously.

The sound of footsteps, the sound of a door closing, the door opening and closing next door.

Su Liang breathed a sigh of relief, looked down at the exquisite embroidered shoes on her feet, and felt her own beating pulse. It seemed that she had really traveled through time.

When the surrounding area became quiet, Su Liang pulled off her hijab. Before she could see clearly the furnishings in the room, the door was suddenly kicked open!

A tall, muscular young man strode towards Su Liang with sharp eyes. He was not the one who had just paid homage to her.

Wearing dark clothes, a sword on his waist, and a jade crown binding his hair, he has a tall and straight posture, which brings a biting wind when he walks, giving people a strong sense of oppression.

He is much more handsome and stylish than the general in Su Liang's previous TV series.

"Who are you? Who let you in?" The lean old man appeared at the door.

The man walked up to Su Liang, staring at her face with bright eyes, but he said to the old man behind him, "I am Nian Jincheng, the third-rank military general of the current dynasty, and I have been ordered to capture the descendants of the Gu family who are plotting rebellion! Anyone who blocks it will be killed without mercy!”

A glittering golden token floated away from Su Liang's eyes. In her heart, ten thousand grass and mud horses galloped past. Was the one who just worshiped her a rebel?

After traveling through time, can’t we even see the sun tomorrow?

Looking past the man in front of her, she saw that the old man who had been unkind to her not long ago was looking nervous at the moment, "I'm afraid you are looking in the wrong place? My master's surname is Ning, and I have never heard of anyone named Gu."

Nian Jincheng ignored him and continued to stare at Su Liang, "Are you willing to marry him?"

Su Liang: ...Maybe saying "no" can clear the relationship? However, the fact that the "groom" is a rebel has not been finalized yet. Instead of counting on the murderous general in front of him, it is safer to stand with the "groom".

As long as he was safe, she was fine.

Thinking of this, Su Liang lowered his eyes, pulled the red hijab in his hand, and nodded timidly, "Yes..."

Nian Jincheng narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice, "I was tracking down the rebels and passed by Sujia Village. I became addicted to alcohol. I learned that your mansion was holding a wedding event, so I came to ask for a cup of wedding wine to satisfy my greed. I can't help disturbing the young lady. !”

Su Liang: ...I, believe, you, a ghost...

The old man at the door looked very relieved, and quickly said with a smile, "General Nian's visit is a great honor for my Ning family. I will fetch wine for General Nian!"

Su Liang thought it was time for Nian Jincheng to leave, but he took out a jade hairpin from his arms and inserted it into Su Liang's black hair. He took two steps back and cupped his hands and said, "I picked it up on the road. Congratulations, little lady, on finding the right husband." , is also a gift of apology!" After saying that, he turned around and strode away.

The door slammed shut again.

"General Nian, please accept my young master's kindness."

Nian Jincheng took the wine jar and stared at the thin figure reflected in the window next door. His stern face was half-dark in the night, and he said loudly, "I wish you both a son and a long life together! Farewell!"

The sound of horse hooves faded away, and the courtyard became quiet.

"Master, did he not notice it, or..."

"He knew it was me."

"But if you plan to let the young master off, why does he come?"

"He didn't make the decision, and he wasn't the only one who came."

"Thank God, Mr. Nian still cares about his old relationship! But he must be unhappy when he sees Mr. Nian visiting the village girl. After all, Miss Nian and Mr. Nian have been engaged since they were young."

"I married a wife and have nothing to do with the Nian family anymore. Nian Jincheng understands what I mean. Gu Ling is dead. From now on, there will be only peace in the world."

"Alas! But what should we do with that village girl?"

"Let's talk tomorrow."

…

In the woods outside Sujia Village, the night wind was bleak.

Nian Jincheng reined in his horse, and eight soldiers in fine armor and swords flashed out of the darkness.

"I have confirmed that it is the seventh son Ningjing who was expelled by the Xunyang tea merchant Ning family. He lives here. He is getting married tonight and is in the bridal chamber." Nian Jincheng said with a cold face.

An old and feminine voice came from behind, "Just now, the Za family went to the village to ask for a cup of hot water, but they didn't meet General Nian!"

Nian Jincheng tightened his grip on the reins and heard the person behind him sneer, "The Za family heard that although the girl Ning Qi married was beautiful, she was illiterate, lazy, vulgar and rude. Based on these alone, It is impossible for him to be a prince with eyes higher than his head."

Nian Jincheng breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, Eunuch Han, if that's the case, look for it elsewhere!"
