Chapter 29 The Eve of Marriage

The auspicious date is approaching day by day, and it’s the eve of the wedding in a blink of an eye.

In the dead of night, Liang Lao reminded Jiang Fusang to rest early and to get up early tomorrow. The look she gave him before leaving was solemn.

Not only her, but also Chang Pu and several other maids were like this.

We are about to accompany the girl to Chongzhou. The future is uncertain, but it won't be much better if we think about it. Therefore, everyone has a tragic and determined attitude of looking forward to death.

On the contrary, Jiang Fusang himself had made all the arrangements that needed to be made, and now he was lying on the brocade couch, feeling relaxed.

Speaking of which, she had never been to the Northland.

Putting aside the complicated current situation for the time being, she tried to picture the scenery of the Northland in her mind.

The solitary smoke in the desert, the setting sun on the long river, the iron horse in the autumn wind... I have heard a lot about what it is like, but I still can't imagine it.

But for her, the scenery is not important, what is important is survival.

Although my husband said that the unification of the world must begin in the north, there were many warlords in the north, and the years before her death were still a chaotic war, with no final outcome.

Hu Chengliang's Chongzhou Army is indeed famous for a while, but there is no guarantee that the final winner will be the Hu family...

But it is enough to have stability for ten or twenty years.

What's more, she didn't plan to stay in the North for a long time. She would first find a shelter from the storm and follow her husband's instructions to develop in a low-key manner for a period of time, so that the world would be more stable before it was too late to find another way out.

The only thing that worries her right now is that she still has to find a way to find her husband first. Even if she can't go to Nanzhou in person, there are always other ways.

In another five years, South Vietnam will be established...it must be before then.

Jiang Fusang prepared to come and go, but he didn't realize that the third watch had arrived.

When I was drowsy, I suddenly heard a creaking sound, and the door opened and closed.

Someone!

Who could it be on such a quiet night?

Jiang Fusang held his breath and tilted his head.

There was a lamp left in the room, and through the heavy curtains, one could faintly see the person dressed as a maid.

The man tiptoed to the couch, lifted up the tent, knelt down and called softly: "Sister, wake up."

"A Miao?" Jiang Fusang sat up in shock, "Why are you here?"

Afraid of complications, Mrs. Luo did not immediately send Jiang Foyin to Xingping. Yesterday, she coaxed her to go to Tangdi Temple outside the city, planning to send her away from Beijing after the wedding.

Jiang Fosang moved into Jiang Foyin's hospital that night.

"I came back before the night ban and hid under the kitchen for a long time."

Jiang Foyin started to undress without saying a word.

"Don't say any more, sister, please put on your clothes quickly! When daybreak comes and the house is busy, you pretend to be a maid and sneak out. When the city gate opens, you leave the capital. Go, go... or else...

Go to Xijiang County! I know you definitely don’t want to go there, but where else can you go? No matter what, there are always people in Yuanyang County who can protect you. If you continue to stay in the mansion, I’m afraid that my mother will

I will make things difficult for you again in the future.”

Jiang Fusang held her undressing hand: "What about you?"

Jiang Foyin laughed twice: "Sister, you blamed me for being confused earlier, but after I think about what you said, I think it makes sense.

“I heard that the sky in the north is extremely high and blue. There are endless open plains and endless mountains. It’s hard to believe that we can even see pastures with herds of cattle and sheep!

"The seventh son of the Hu family may also be a handsome man. I thought about it, and marrying to Chongzhou would be a good thing."

She said these words in one breath, fluently and even filled with incomparable joy, but she always lowered her head and refused to meet Jiang Fusang's eyes.

Jiang Fusang held her shoulders and forced her to look up at him.

Jiang Foyin turned around, her head still tilted, and her shoulders twitched - she had loved crying since she was a child, and she held it in again and again, but finally she couldn't hold it in anymore.

I was secretly annoyed that I was not living up to expectations, and I was still trying to make amends: "I just think about not being able to see you again, my sister, and I feel so reluctant to let go."

Jiang Fusang sighed and wiped her tears with his hand: "Amiao, you don't have to be like this."

"Sister!" Jiang Foyin couldn't bear it anymore, threw herself into her arms and cried bitterly, "I hurt you, I hurt you!"

If she hadn't kept making troubles and refused to marry far away, her mother would not have come up with the idea of ​​letting her cousin marry her instead.

It was her selfishness and willfulness that harmed her cousin!

The strange thing is that my mother has suddenly been in a good mood in the past half month. She only said that she had a solution to the problem, but refused to tell her the truth.

Jiang Foyin believed that his mother would not lie to him, but seeing that the marriage preparations were still being carried out in an orderly manner, he couldn't help but feel anxious.

Yesterday, her mother coaxed her to go to Tangdi Temple, and she got stuck on her. Finally, her mother said that the so-called solution was to marry on behalf of others.

My mother said that the person marrying her was the daughter of a distant relative in the clan, so she believed her.

But my heart is never at ease.

On the way to Tangdi Temple, she asked her personal maid if she knew who the person who took her place was.

The maid's words flickered, as if she was hiding something.

She had never been considered smart, but somehow, at that moment, she was blessed to the core.

The result was just as expected, the person who took her place was indeed her cousin.

"Sister, I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I didn't know it was you." Jiang Fusang cried into tears.

Jiang Fusang hugged her and patted her, feeling extremely sad in his heart.

Foyin obviously didn't really think it through, but just couldn't bear to marry far away for her.

Having said that, even if she figured it out, it would be of no use. Now, she can and can only be married to Chongzhou.

But the reason cannot be told truthfully.

"You don't have to feel guilty." Jiang Fusang said, "Sister did it voluntarily."

Jiang Foyin shook her head, she didn't believe it.

Jiang Fusang smiled, "When has my sister ever lied to you?"

But Jiang Foyin couldn't figure it out no matter what, "Why, why?"

"As you said, the scenery in the north has its own beauty, and I have longed for it for a long time. Moreover," Jiang Fusang's voice suddenly became softer, "that Qi Lang of the Hu family is indeed a handsome man."

Jiang Foyin looked at her blankly: "How did sister know?" As far as she knew, Hu Qilang did not follow him to Beijing.

"Well." Jiang Fusang paused and lowered his eyelashes, seeming shy, "The steward of the Hu family brought his portrait, and my aunt showed it to me."

Jiang Foyin was doubtful, but Sister Guan's expression didn't seem to be fake.

"But, you, you... what about Pei Yi?"

Has the cousin really forgotten Pei Yi?

"Sister, I'm still saying that it's useless to dwell on hopeless feelings." Jiang Fusang pursed his lips, "Marrying to Chongzhou is my best choice at the moment. Otherwise, as the former daughter-in-law of the Xu family, do you think there is room for me in Jingling?"

Where?"

"The current situation is not conducive to my sister, but in a year or two, Mrs. Xu will take a bride again, and she won't..."

"In a year or two?" Jiang Fusang shook his head, "When the limelight passes, my uncle and aunt will ask me to remarry. The people who come to ask for my hand in marriage at that time will probably be either widowers or sick and disabled. Instead of doing this, I would rather choose my own husband."

The cousin's words were calm and coherent, leaving Jiang Foyin speechless for a moment.

If this is the case, it would be a solution for the two sisters.
