Today is the wedding day of the third son of the Xiao family. In Tiancheng, all the inns and restaurants are free to entertain, and the Xiao family pays the bill as much as you eat and drink. Besides the royal family, there is only the Xiao family. .
The door made of old red sandalwood is magnificent and extravagant. Four rows of large red lanterns were hung high, illuminating the front of the Xiao Mansion. The red silk that could be seen everywhere and the residual red left by the firecrackers set the Xiao Mansion a beam of joy. The servants of the Xiao family led the guests into the inner hall, which was endless and lively.
Two tall figures appeared outside the gate of Xiao's house. The simple attire was somewhat inconsistent with the gorgeously dressed guests and the luxurious atmosphere, but no one felt anything wrong, and their eyes followed them involuntarily.
The streamer who was forced to arrange the handle outside the door, saw the faces of the two clearly, and quickly greeted them respectfully.
In the lobby, it was full of people, all waiting to see who was the young lady who was worthy of the third son of the Xiao family. Xiao Zongqing was dressed in a red python robe, high-spirited, with a smile on his handsome face, Liu Guang hurried over, whispered a few words in his ear, Xiao Zongqing was stunned for a moment, and then walked to the backyard with a face of ecstasy, no matter what. A room of guests.
There was a lot of people in the lobby, but in the festively decorated new house in the backyard, it was... a mess.
The big red hijab was thrown diagonally on the bed, the golden phoenix crown studded with pearls was also abandoned at the corner of the bed, and the gorgeous Xia Pi slipped even more miserably from the bed to the ground. In front of the delicacies, a busy hand shuttled among the various dishes and was very busy. The wine glass beside him was abandoned, and he grabbed the wine jar with his slender hand and drank the wine heroically.
After a while, Yan Rui was finally full, wiped her mouth clean, and sighed in satisfaction.
Omg! Getting married is really not something people do.
I have been busy in the early morning until now, grooming and dressing up, praying for blessings and welcoming relatives, and going to the church later. Can she say, stop playing
Why!
That phoenix crown weighed at least 30 pounds, and it made her head hurt. She still knew martial arts. If it were an ordinary woman, her neck would probably be broken.
Thinking of taking it with her later, Yan Rui felt a drum in her heart. She was determined not to suffer this kind of crime again. She swiftly untied all the gold and beautiful jade hanging on her body, and when her hand touched the egg-sized blood amber in the front of her clothes At that time, Yan Rui raised her first sweet smile since tonight.
She and him knew each other because of this bloody amber. Thinking of the popularity when they first met, Yan Rui couldn't help laughing again. It was the summer of a year ago...
Xiao Zongqing can't remember how much the Xiao family's property is involved. The second brother's health is getting worse and worse, and Xiao Zongqing finally took over the family's property. Walking to the biggest Xiao family pawnshop in Tiancheng, before entering, Xiao Zongqing heard a woman's sharp clamor: "You old man, do you know what good things are, this is a thousand-year-old blood amber, you just came out Fifty-two?"
Staring at the old man with a "bitter and mean" face behind the high platform, Yan Rui was angry. If she hadn't used up all the money she brought from home, she wouldn't have come to be the thousand-year-old bloody jade that her master gave her to rescue her. , she can redeem it when the senior brother sends the money, who would have thought that this dead old man would actually want to blackmail her. Fifty two! Did I make a mistake? In normal times, she wouldn't sell it for 5,000 taels.
The shopkeeper was unmoved and hummed: "I said girl, this is a pawnshop. In my eyes, your things are worth the price. If you want to do it, you can do it. If you don't, please do it!" Smart little girl.
The shopkeeper's aloof appearance made Yan Rui half-dead, akimbo, Yan Rui pointed at him and scolded: "What a shit pawnshop, if this girl didn't happen to be short of money, she wouldn't be a pawn, you're still taking advantage of others' dangers. Deliberately lowering the price is simply a profiteer!"
The little girl is still excited, she is splashing here, do they still want to do business? He had seen many such people, and the shopkeeper shouted, "Someone, throw her out."
"Yes." Three or four strong men surrounded Yan Rui.
"I just want to do it!" Yan Rui rolled up her sleeves and shouted, "Will my aunt be afraid of you? Come on! I smashed your black shop."
The voice just fell, and a few people started to move. Yan Rui learned martial arts from his master since he was a child. Although he was used to being lazy and was not the opponent of his brothers, he was still able to deal with a few domestic servants. She fell to the ground.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, Yan Rui simply smashed the vase and porcelain in the pawnshop, and asked you to open a black shop!
The shopkeeper was startled. He didn't expect that this little girl had two more strokes, and was about to call someone in the backyard when a dark body flashed in very quickly.
Yan Rui was startled. After only a few moves, Yan Rui knew that she had met a master. Sure enough, after ten moves, her hands were cut back and she was pressed on the wooden chair.
This man's hand was tightly binding her wrist like iron clamps, and Yan Rui cried out in pain: "It hurts to death, let go!"
Liu Guang's face was slightly cold, and he ignored her clamor at all, waiting for Xiao Zongqing's orders.
The tall figure walked into the room. As soon as the shopkeeper saw someone, he hurried up to meet him, and respectfully called out, "Third Young Master!" How could he be so unlucky that such a thing happened to be seen by Third Young Master.
Xiao Zongqing's gloomy eyes glanced at the debris on the ground, and asked coldly, "What's going on?"
The shopkeeper secretly swallowed a sip of water and explained: "This girl came as an object, and she thought that the price we offered was low, so she scolded and smashed the store."
"Fart!" The hand was so awkward that Yan Rui was angry and shouted, "Who moved the hand first? I'm a thousand-year-old amber. It's just that the wicked complained first.
Xiao Zongqing finally looked at the woman who was pressed on the chair and still kept screaming. She was wearing a bright striped embroidered shirt, a short skirt, two slender legs wrapped in black cloth, and a pair of bright red boots under her feet. The long braids hang down to the chest.
Looking at the dress, the woman should not be from Cangyue, her fire-breathing spiritual eyes were staring at him fiercely, and she could not wait to pounce on him and bite him. Xiao Zongqing is a little funny. She looks like a little wild cat caught by a long tooth dance.
Suddenly wanting to tease her, Xiao Zongqing walked to her side, looked at her sideways, and snorted coldly: "I am a pawnshop, not a shantang, you think the price is low, you can go and smash my things, but if you want lose money."
"It's too much to deceive people, it's obviously you who made the first move." Yan Rui was about to explode with anger, and it's no wonder he opened such a black shop because of his good looks. Angered and unwilling to compromise, Yan Rui shouted, "If you want money or not, you will die."
What did he want her life to do? Feeling that the woman was a little interesting, she groped her chin lightly, and Xiao Zongqing replied pretending to think, "No money? Then take Amber to recharge."
When the shopkeeper heard this, he quickly handed over the bloody pearl still on the pawn stand to Xiao Zongqing.
"You, you... you robber! Bandit! Give me the amber back." If possible, Yan Rui really wanted to break his neck.
The more she shouts, the more interesting Xiao Zongqing finds it. Playing with the blood amber in her hand, the pure and clear texture, the dark red streamer is looming, it is indeed a good thing, put it in her hand and weigh it, Xiao Zongqing said casually : "It's not too bad if it's barely too bad. Even if it is a hundred taels, if I smash my things, I have to pay at least sixty or seventy taels. The shopkeeper, go to the cashier and give this girl forty taels."
"Yes." The shopkeeper ran to the accounting room at the back, and after a while, took out a bag of silver and put it beside Yan Rui.
"Who wants your stinky money, give me back the amber." Yan Rui didn't even look at the purse, she struggled to stand up, she wouldn't give the bloody man to this damn man if she died today.
Holding her chin, Xiao Zongqing leaned down slightly, his black eyes looked straight into Yan Rui's, and his slightly cold voice sounded provocatively: "It's mine now."
His eyes were so beautiful, Yan Rui was a little dazed, and the next sentence immediately brought her back to reality.
"Liuguang, throw her out."
"Yes."
At the door of the pawnshop, a girl who looked like jade was thrown out, and there was a small bag of silver taels by her side.
Every time Yan Rui stroked the bloodbath, Yan Rui couldn't help but want to laugh. Since then, she and he have taken over Liangzi, and she has troubled him from time to time, but every time he is either thrown out of the house or thrown out of the house. It was a complete mess. In the end, she had no choice but to use Gu poison. After successfully getting him intoxicated, she couldn't bear to see his pain eroded by the poison, so she wanted to help him detoxify him.
As soon as I met him, everything was messed up.
The noise from the front yard seduced her from time to time. It must be very lively outside. She didn't want to be locked here all the time.
After a few cunning laughter, the red shadow ran out neatly. In the new house, only the phoenix crown and the rosy robe were left, and the jewels, jade, and candles complemented each other.
backyard.
After rushing over, Xiao Zongqing still couldn't believe the two people who were looking at him with a smile, and said, "I didn't expect you to come." Two months ago, he entrusted the merchant's fleet to deliver them to them. Going to the wedding invitation, he thought they would not come. After all, the caravan went out to the sea once every three months. Unexpectedly, they actually came.
Shang Jun and Xiuzhi looked at each other and said with a smile, "How can we not come on your big day?" In her heart, San'er has always been her best friend, and even in her heart, he has long been like her relatives generally.
Shang Jun may be wearing men's clothes because of the convenience of the picture today. He is also used to it. After four years, time seems to stand still, and the years have not left a trace on their faces.
With a sigh of relief, Xiao Zongqing asked curiously, "Where's Xiao Qing?"
A year ago, I heard that Shang Jun had given birth to a lovely daughter. With such a beautiful mother, the child will surely be an alluring country in the future.
Shang Jun replied amusingly: "It's a long way, I didn't let her come. She's tired of Shu Qing all day now, almost forgetting who is her mother."
After not seeing her for many years, she is still a little different. Before, she would not smile so softly or so easily. She glanced at Qin Xiuzhi, who had always stood silently beside her and stared at her with a smile. Xiao Zongqing believed that she was Happy, that's enough.
Xiao Zongqing was a little dazed, and Shang Jun asked deliberately, "Where's your bride, we haven't had a chance to meet yet."
She wanted to see what kind of woman melted and warmed San'er's heart.
When he came back to his senses, Xiao Zongqing raised a faint smile and replied, "She is in the wedding room..."
Before the words were finished, Xiao Zongqing saw a delicate red shadow sneaking out from the bushes and running out cautiously.
"Yan Rui!"
Xiao Zongqing roared and walked towards the red shadow.
The sudden cry also shocked Yan Ruiru.
Isn't he in the front room? How come here? She just ran out!
Picking up her collar, Xiao Zongqing said coldly, "Explain to me, are you going to run away from marriage?"
Yan Rui swallowed. With a light cough, he smiled flatteringly: "How can people escape? It's boring inside, okay? I'll come out to get some air."
people? Xiao Zongqing raised her eyebrows slightly, and whenever she felt guilty, she would say a word.
Yan Rui tried her best to look innocent, but Xiao Zongqing reluctantly let go of her collar under her "pathetic" gaze.
At this time, Shang Jun and Qin Xiuzhi also came over.
"Wow… "
Staring at the two people walking slowly under Yuehua, Yan Rui exclaimed, "How handsome!"
One is as elegant and gentle as the breeze, and the other is as free and easy as a cloud.
Going forward, Yan Rui introduced herself generously: "Hello, my name is Yan Rui." They are Xiao Xiao's friends, and she also wants to make friends with them.
"Shangjun."
"Qin Xiuzhi."
Shang Jun likes this straightforward cat-like woman very much, and feels that when she is around her, she will be lit up by her enthusiasm.
"Huh?" After looking closely for a while, Yan Rui whispered, "You guys look familiar!" Where have you seen it
After thinking about it for a while, Yan Rui finally remembered: "I remembered, it's the painting in Xiao Xiao's room!" It was his most precious thing, and no one could touch it.
Staring straight at Shang Jun, Yan Ruiqi said, "But, are you a woman?" She remembered that she was wearing women's clothes, but now he's wearing men's clothes, and he is really handsome.
Xiao Xiao? Is this their nickname? It's really interesting. Shang Jun glanced at Xiao Zongqing, whose face was getting darker and darker, and couldn't help laughing: "I am."
Looking at the two of them again, Yan Rui nodded and said excitedly, "Well, you two are a good match."
The two of them standing together are like a painting, no matter what they dress up, their temperament dictates.
"Would you like to prepare some food and drink for you? Slow, slow, chat!" Xiao Zongqing stood behind her, almost gnashing his teeth.
Yan Rui nodded happily and smiled: "Okay, okay. Go get ready." She was so curious about them!
"Yan—Rui—" He hadn't told her that she had escaped secretly, yet she dared to ignore him like that.
Yan Rui looked back stupidly: "Why?" Obviously, she didn't quite understand what to observe.
"Ah!" After an exclamation, she was carried by Xiao Zongqing on her shoulders.
At this time, Yan Rui, who finally figured out the situation, shouted: "Xiao Zongqing, let me down." What a shame!
"Excuse me." Nodding to Shang Jun and Qin Xiuzhi, Xiao Zongqing walked towards the new house against Yan Rui, who had been twisted like a loach.
"Xiao Xiao, let them down!"
With a cold snort, Xiao Zongqing not only did not slow down, but walked towards the house faster.
The voice was getting farther and farther, but the sweetness was getting stronger and stronger. Qin Xiuzhi smiled softly, "It's a sweet couple, it seems that the time for worship will be delayed a lot."
Shang Jun replied with satisfaction: "That girl is a good match for San'er." She can bring him enthusiasm, which is the emotion that San'er has but is suppressed by him.
Gently holding Shang Jun's hand, Qin Xiuzhi sighed: "Now, you can rest assured." Although Shang Jun never said it, he knew that in her heart, she always felt that she owed Xiao Zongqing, and after today , she should be relieved.
Slowly nodding, leaning into Qin Xiuzhi's arms, Shang Jun whispered, "Well, it's okay, everyone is happy."
The moon is like a heartstring, and the wind is like caramel. On this day, all the guests waited until Zi Shi, and the worship ceremony still did not start...
