The morning in Dongdu is like every other day. The sun rises in the east. There is no difference. The people still get up early and start the day's busy work for their livelihood...
More than half a month had passed since the Heroes Meeting. In the quiet courtyard of the Heroes Building, Li Xia stretched out and said without looking back: "Girl, let's go."
"Aren't you going to say goodbye to the second master?"
"Girl, do you have to trouble me so early in the morning?" Li Xia went ahead without looking back.
"We can't say goodbye until we say goodbye! Hey, Master, wait for me!" The maid quickly held up a big black umbrella and caught up with her Master...
The warriors of the Eastern Capital City were leaving in droves, and the second master of the Wang family, who had calmed down, was chatting with his silly son, but in his heart he was calculating and weighing what benefits this hero would bring to the Wang family and the second master of the Wang family.
The King of Qi intervened and won the hearts of the royal family. It was not a loss for the Wang family to win over enough warriors for their own use. After all, the second master of the Wang family lost his wife and lost his troops. He was raised in Jiapigou.
Li Taiping had more than 200 subordinates to choose from, and the grandmasters and ninth-grade warriors sent by Li Xia were also in his hands. It was the second master of the Wang family who caused the trouble. Li Xia would definitely put all the blame on him later.
On the other hand, the eldest brother was very dissatisfied with his unfavorable performance! After all, the batch of money from the past few days still satisfied the chief helmsman.
In Prince Fu's Mansion, in the small waterside pavilion, Chen Buwen played the piano alone and felt the rules of heaven and earth...
"Princess - wake up! Jianxi is here to wake up!"
Hearing Dao Cuihua's slightly excited voice, Chen Buwen slowly stood up and walked to Jian Xilai's residence in a leisurely manner.
"Are you awake?" Chen Buwen said, looking at Jian Xilai's pale cheek.
Jian Xilai rubbed his forehead and stood up: "Thank you, Princess, for the rescue! Li Taiping -"
Chen Buwen smiled and said: "I was thinking about that boy as soon as I woke up. Don't worry, although Taiping's injuries were serious, they were all external injuries. For a martial artist who has practiced martial arts to the ninth level, those injuries are trivial. He would have long been injured."
You are alive and kicking! On the contrary, your mental loss is too serious and your life is in danger! Although you are awake today, you must take more time to recover and not leave any hidden diseases. You can stay in the palace with peace of mind. What's the matter?
Just call Cuihua."
A few days ago, the heroes meeting broke up. Jian Xilai, who had a life-or-death battle with the great monk, was elected as the strongest challenger by the heroes of the Central Plains. The Wang family acquiesced in this result. On behalf of the emperor, the King of Qi made an impassioned speech in the Hero Building and rewarded him.
Those young warriors who had achieved good results in the ring, then King Qi went to the palace to visit the unconscious Jian Xilai, and then led 3,000 heavy armored cavalry back to Daxing City. Nangong Shou and Cui Mingdao confirmed that Jian Xilai was fine.
Later, he accompanied Mu Pinshan to Daxing City. On the same day, Li Taiping also said goodbye and left Dongdu...
Runan County is located in the plains and is known as the "granary" of Daqian. Although the people of Li are not rich, they can still fill their stomachs. If God opens his eyes, every household can still have some surplus food.
Mao'er Village is dozens of miles away from Xuanhu City. There are more than a dozen households with dozens of people. If a family in the small village has something big or small, the whole village will work together, of course, provided it is not during the busy farming season.
In the early morning, the small village was bustling with activity. A large sedan chair was placed in front of Liu Er's house and a shed was set up in the yard. Liu Er was squatting in the yard and laughingly watching Mr. Heizi and his wife slaughtering their own lamb. Liu Er just passed by and was confused.
Although he is 2 years old, his body is stooped, his dark face is full of traces of time, and he looks like a little old man when he squats there.
Liu Er's family has a big happy event today. Not only will the eldest nephew win the imperial examination in this autumn, he will also marry the daughter of Sun Da's family in the same village today. It is a double happiness day, so Liu Er gets up early in the morning and is there.
Laughing non-stop...
Sun Youliang, nicknamed Sun Goucheng, was born more than ten years ago when his youngest daughter was accepted as a disciple by the master of the Xuanhu Sword Sect. Sun Goucheng felt that if he used this name again, he would embarrass his daughter in the future.
The trustee brought the birth date to Xuanhu City to ask the gentleman to name him. Since Sun Youliang's daughter entered the Xuanhu Sword Sect, the Sun family's life has been getting better day by day, and now it has become a wealthy family in Mao'er Village.
, people in the village call Sun Youliang Sun Dahu.
Sun's family has a wide courtyard. There are seven or eight adobe houses surrounded by two courtyards. The houses are all decorated with wood. After passing the front hall of the courtyard, they came to the back house and saw the inside of the back house.
Several old ladies were gathering around the bride to dress up. One of them was busy applying crab apple powder on the bride's face, drawing her eyebrows and eyebrows. The careful hairdresser behind her was combing the beautiful bride's hair with an oxhorn wooden comb.
, but also said plausibly, "One comb to the end, two combs to white hair to the level of eyebrows, three combs to fill the house with descendants..."
"Since I was young, I think Wan'er is destined to be rich and noble. Not only can she bring blessings to her family, but she is also a good husband. We just got engaged not long ago, and the boy from the Liu family passed the exam!"
"To be able to marry our Wan'er, the Liu family has accumulated a lifetime of virtue!"
The wives were all gushing praises and sighs. It wasn't until the gongs and drums were noisy outside that they thought of looking for a red hijab...
At the entrance of the village, a young man in green clothes carrying a sword case slowly walked in, his stomach growling as he walked. It was already past noon, and the young man had not yet received his lunch meal, so he was already hungry and panicking. Suddenly, there was a knocking sound in the village.
With the sound of gongs and drums, a team to welcome the bride came from afar, it was so lively...
What caught my eye were several men shaking their heads and beating gongs and drums vigorously. The groom dressed in bright red was carried on a white horse. The sedan chair carried by four people followed closely behind the groom and shook violently. A group of little children jumped and jumped around.
Seeing the wedding team leaving the village entrance, going around in a big circle and then back again... This big circle made the four men carrying the sedan tired. The sedan had to be bumpy as possible until it reached the husband's house, which symbolized
The bride will be happy and healthy after all the hardships.
When the young man saw that the wedding team had turned back, he put a smile on his face: "I, Li Taiping, am indeed blessed with profound blessings!" After saying that, he followed the wedding team...
After leaving Dongdu, Li Taiping decided to go south and visit Jiangnan. The old Taoist priest had led him all over the mountains and rivers over the years, but he had never been to Jiangnan. According to the old Taoist opinion, the people in Jiangnan were living a good life, so there was no need to
I saw it. In fact, Li Taiping always felt that the old Taoist priest did not go to Jiangnan because he was afraid that the bright flowers and green willows would dazzle his disciples.
The wedding team came to the door of Liu Er's house with a lot of banging. They saw a two-foot-wide red cloth spread in front of the door, all the way to the bride's house. The groom used a riding crop to open the sedan curtain, and helped the bride get out of the sedan. Only the groom was seen.
Taking the short bow that had been prepared long ago, he opened the bow and shot three arrows to the sky and into the distance. Gan people are good at martial arts, and although the groom is a scholar, he can barely shoot a stone bow. These three arrows represent praying to the sky for eternal peace.
A happy and prosperous future...
When the bride heard the sound of three strings, she knew that she would step over the brazier and the saddle and enter the house. Although the wedding dress could no longer be worn, Wan'er didn't want the red wedding dress to be damaged in the slightest, so she helped the groom to help her.
Next, he lifted up his skirt and peeked at his feet, carefully stepping over the brazier...
It was almost dusk, and the small courtyard of Liu Er's family was crowded with people, all of whom came to support them. Liu Erhan sat at the top with a smile, waiting for the newlyweds to come to the church to get married. The groom was holding the bride and looking at him.
The second uncle, who had been tired for a lifetime, said respectfully: "Second uncle, today is my nephew's big day. Before the visit, my nephew has to do something that should have been done long ago..."
"Dad! Zhien kowtows to you!"
As the groom said this, he knelt down and kowtowed three times. When the bridegroom shouted "Dad", Liu Er was stunned. The sound of "Dad" made Liu Er, who had always been stubborn and stubborn, burst into tears.
The two hands stretched out tremblingly to help the eldest nephew up, but his legs were disobedient and he couldn't stand up.
Liu Zhien's parents died when he was young. It was his second uncle who raised him up, taught him how to behave, provided for him to study, and provided him with a wife. Liu Er never married for Zhien's sake, fearing that his aunt would treat Zhien badly after getting married.
, which affected Zhien’s study. People in the village called Liu Er stupid and tried to persuade Liu Er to get married, but Liu Er refused to marry and just worked hard on the farm alone, so that Zhien could be healthy.
When you grow up, one day you will be able to shine on the lintel.
Liu Er tremblingly helped his nephew up and said in a choked voice: "I can watch you succeed in the imperial examination, watch you get a wife, and watch you have children in the future. My second uncle's life is worth it! I can meet my elder brother and sister-in-law a hundred years later.
I told them with my back straight that I, Liu Er, had lived up to the trust and raised their children to adulthood."
Seeing Mr. Liu holding his head and crying, the moved folks in the village had tears in their eyes...
Li Taiping saw all this and couldn't help but sigh that Liu Er, a farmer who had never read the Four Books and Five Classics, had never practiced martial arts, and had never left a small village and only dealt with the fields, did something that even a saint would be ashamed of.
Liu Er didn't understand anything, but he did better than someone who knew everything. His heart was so pure that it moved the world. Li Taiping bowed deeply to Liu Er from behind the crowd, because this person was worthy of him
Respect……
Liu Er, who was weeping with joy, knew that he could not waste the good time and hurry up to get married in Luo.
One bowed to heaven and earth, the other bowed to the high hall, husband and wife -
"Wait a minute!"
A loud shout came from outside the small courtyard, interrupting the newlyweds who were about to pay their respects. Several young gentlemen with swords were seen arrogantly breaking into Liu Er's house, and they beat anyone they saw without any explanation...
Liu Zhien was very angry, and the scholar was also angry. He angrily said: "Who is so rude and dares to break into a private house? Is there any royal law?"
"Wang Fa? In Runan County, I am Wang Fa in Xuanhu City. Don't look at your success, kid. In my eyes, you are nothing." The young man looked like he was the biggest man in the world.
As soon as Sun Wan'er heard the voice, she knew who it was. She was so angry that she pulled off her red hijab, pointed at the young man and said angrily: "Yuan Kewen, don't bully me too much! If you force me like this, you have to force me to death."
"Wan'er, don't be angry. Wan'er, listen to me. This boy is not good enough for you. You won't have a good life with him! Wan'er, I have already made an agreement with my father. After this Seven Swords Alliance competition,
I will marry you and get married, and my father agreed." Yuan Kewen said with a smile.
"Who wants to marry you! My heart already belongs to Liu Lang. Just give up your heart. There is no way we can do that."
Yuan Kewen's expression changed several times, he drew his sword, pointed at Liu Zhien and said: "Wan'er only belongs to me, I will kill you now so that Wan'er will give up this attachment."
The brothers who followed Yuan Kewen wanted to stop him, but in the end they did not take action because of Yuan Kewen's identity. They watched helplessly as the long sword stabbed the frail scholar...
(Liu Er is a fictional person, but Liu Er’s story is real. I saw the scene when I was helping my relatives hold a wedding. To be honest, I really cried. My second uncle has indeed been farming all his life and has never married.
, my nephew studied abroad, got a Ph.D., and changed his mouth when he came back to get married. So I adapted this paragraph and added it, for no other reason than to move me. If it is not well written, it may not be able to move everyone, so I can only keep it in my heart.
