In the early years, Yuan Niang asked where the Tao Yao family lived? The peach demon made a fool of himself. Ask Nianfang a dozen? She said Nianfang was thirteen. Of course, she didn't believe it when she said it. Ask if your parents are still there? She originally had no father and mother, which meant that her father and mother were dead. And asked if they were ever married? She agreed on the baby kiss, so that Yuan Niang would not mess up the mandarin ducks. Then asked where the doll is from? I can only make a fool out of a very far place - Quan Rong. When you are old, you will naturally come to marry. After a few years, Yuan Niang actually cared about her Guishui! When she heard this word for the first time, she thought about it for a long time and didn't know what kind of holy water it was. After Yuanniang gave examples, analogies, and comparisons, she seemed to understand a little bit. She had no choice but to ask Yuanniang. When I took her to see the doctor, she had to get some pig blood and chicken blood to deal with her every month.
At this moment, Ying Yan and Ying Hui are planning to get married. Even though Yuanniang's temples are covered with white hair, she is still not easy to deal with. She began to not believe that Tao Yao had a baby to kiss. It was eighty-eight. If she wanted to marry, she should have come a long time ago. Although Tao Yao still looks young, it is difficult for a girl of this age to marry. She was so anxious that she would nag in Tao Yao's ear as soon as she got the chance, asking the matchmaker to find out if there were any older unmarried men who were healthy and kind.
On the afternoon of March, the warm sun was shining, Ying Yan and Ying Hui were playing chess on the peach blossom tree in the yard. There was not a single customer in the restaurant in front, Tao Yao was lying by the window looking at the passing crowd. A well-dressed middle-aged woman walked towards the wine shop. As soon as she entered the store, she smiled mysteriously at Yuan Niang, and by the way, she used this smile to read the Tao Yao from head to toe, and Yuan Niang also rushed. Smiling with Tao Yao, she was even happier than Ying Yan came to see her.
In an instant, under the gaze of the two of them smiling, the peach demon got goosebumps all over his body, and a chill spread all over his body. This is a bad sign!
The two of them entered the backyard and sat on the couch in the hall. Yuan Niang poured tea and put it on the table in the middle. My mouth is dry, and I can't say anything without drinking a full pot of tea.
On the left outside the door are Ying Yan and Ying Hui. They are playing chess vigorously. Occasionally, petals fall on the chessboard. Hu Cang is lying on the side lazily, enjoying the warm sunshine in the afternoon in the spring.
"What's the good news?" Yuan Niang asked with a smile.
"It's more than good news." Li matchmaker said, "His father is Shangqing, although he is a concubine, but he is already a doctor at a young age!"
Yuan Niang looked suspicious and muttered, "Such a good family!?"
Seeing Yuanniang's doubts, matchmaker Li was relieved and said with a smile: "Yuanniang, you are the godmother of the son's birthday! The Tao Yao girl has served the son Yan for so many years, and has won the trust of the son and the monarch. How many people are eager to This marriage!" While talking, he looked at the two children who were playing chess outside the house, and murmured, "You are so lucky!"
Yuan Niang couldn't help but smile even brighter, she was really lucky to have lived an extra ten years in vain.
"The family is very good, you know how the child's appearance and personality are"
Matchmaker Li took a sip of tea and said, "It's natural to have a good appearance, and it looks like a full heaven and a pavilion. That's a rare beautiful man, and it's a good match with the Tao Yao girl! Personality is nothing to say. They are a big family and have strict family education. If you think about it, he is already a doctor when he is only twenty-six. This marriage is very good!"
"Not good!" Ying Hui thought that Ying Yan was talking about which move he just made was not good, but after thinking about it for a while, he couldn't come up with a better one, and asked doubtfully, "Which is better?" Answered, thought for a while, and then said, "Is there nothing wrong?"
Inside the house, Yuan Niang smiled and said, "Okay, it's excellent. How can it be bad for a doctor appointed by the monarch!" In Yuan Niang's heart, the monarch is a person who exists like a god, and his likes and dislikes are her likes and dislikes. "Then the door is set, but I'm sorry to bother you."
Matchmaker Li hesitated and said, "But what if the peach demon girl doesn't agree?"
Yuan Niang took a sip of tea and looked straight in the direction of Tao Yao. Of course, although she couldn't see her, she said, "I have to persuade me..."
The two of them talked for a long time, and they both laughed so hard that they discussed the six rituals of the wedding—accepting, asking for names, Naji, accepting, inviting, welcoming, and discussing every detail. After a while, I even thought about whether Taoyao would be her husband's daughter or her husband's son in the future, and how many children she would have.
Outside the house, Ying Yan frowned for a while, and then the corners of his mouth twitched. Not because of the chess game he was playing, but because of the faint conversations in the house.
The sun was gradually setting in the west, Li matchmaker saw that the conversation was almost over, and it was getting late, so she got up and went back to the house. Yuan Niang did not keep her at home for dinner, because there were two sons at home, so she sent her outside the restaurant , Tao Yao leaned on the counter, lowered her head and counted the lines of the wood, and could clearly feel two malicious gazes lingering on her body.
Today's dinner was extra early, and Yuan Niang was in a very good mood. She made a table of delicious food, and wanted to help herself while the two young masters were there, so that Tao Yao could marry as soon as possible. "Guess what the matchmaker Li is doing today?" Yuan Niang looked at the peach demon, hoping to see some light to be married in her eyes.
Tao Yao ate the food in small sips, just to show off. Hearing Yuan Niang's question, her heart suddenly raised her throat, get married! Why do people have to get married? Her dead fish didn't even look at Yuanniang, and replied, "Yuanniang, you finally want to marry yourself!"
The smile on Yuan Niang's face stiffened for a moment, and after a moment of silence, she said in the tone of a child trafficker: "I told you to kiss me before, but if you disagreed, I followed you. But now, you are getting older, and this is also the case. It is rare to meet a good family. His father is Shangqing. Although he is a concubine, he has become a doctor at a young age. He is still a handsome and handsome man. Such a family, such an official title, such a look, You can't even find it with a lantern!"
There was silence, no answer, all three thoughtful.
Seeing Tao Yao's indifference, she turned to Ying Hui and Ying Yan: "You two are young, but you have a lot of knowledge. Tell me, where can you find such a decent and suitable husband?"
Ying Yan stopped the chopstick and stared at Tao Yao for a while, but she didn't see the slightest bit of shyness on her face when her daughter's family talked about her marriage, she was very satisfied with her tireless efforts over the years, and said, "If What the godmother said, this is a good marriage. It depends on whether Sister Tao Yao is satisfied?" He looked at Tao Yao amiably, waiting for her reply.
The sound of "Sister Tao Yao" made the hairs on Tao Yao stand up all over her body, and a burst of coldness hit her. She had already summed up her experience. When he called her Tao Yao, the result was usually not too bad. When he called her Tao Yao sister, the result was from Not so much. Fortunately, human life is only a few dozen years, otherwise how many monsters will be harmed!
Seeing that Tao Yao was speechless, Ying Hui said: "Brother will also get married soon. Sister Tao Yao will be able to leave the palace at that time, so she doesn't have to accompany her day and night. It's better to find a man who loves each other as a companion than to be alone."
"Yuanniang, I have a baby to kiss, that is the life of my parents, how can I take him?"
"But after so many years, I haven't seen her come to find you?" Yuan Niang was anxious for her. She had tasted the taste of waiting for decades, thinking about it every day, hoping that the cycle of disappointment would recur, and the spicy spit could not be spit out. Just swallow it in the stomach. enough! How can she keep waiting
A hint of color appeared on Ying Yan's face. Of course, he didn't want her to get married. This must-have for home travel, murder and arson was married for nothing, but it was too much of a loss.
"Let's not say I lost him, what if he has lost you, you just wait so unclearly, that person is far away in the Quanrong, but where is it in the Quanrong, how can I find it? If you can't find what you can't find, it's better to cherish the person in front of you." Yuan Niang used her lifelong dedication to prove that it wasn't worth waiting, but she seemed to have forgotten that she was still waiting. A person who eats a delicious meal uses "this is hard to eat" to persuade a person who is trying to enjoy a big meal, and a person who has always been dressed in splendid clothes uses "a person who wants to be unpretentious and speechless in order to always have desires" to persuade people who are trying to get rich. It's so hard to be convincing! Moreover, Tao Yao is a monster, a monster who has no idea of marriage in his heart.
Tao Yao understands Yuan Niang's stubbornness very well. She can wait for someone to die without hesitation. She can change the name of the monarch's son without being soft-spoken. Of course, she can lure her into marriage and never give up halfway. It's tough! She is not afraid of the soft, because she is hard-hearted; she is not afraid of the hard, she can be tougher; she is not afraid of death, because it is too difficult for her to die. She is terrified! Doll's excuse is that he can't fool him anymore.
"The peach demon understands." The peach demon smiled, "Yuanniang, you call the shots, I will marry him. "My marriage is a scourge to the world, and God cannot tolerate it! Marrying a demon is still reluctant! But this peach demon can only think about it.
Yuan Niang burst into tears for a while, and the old tears rolled out accidentally. After saying a few good words, Hu Cang barked a few times outside the house and rolled excitedly.
Yuan Niang regarded the peach demon as a fairy from the very beginning. Year after year, the fairy was still by her side, and the identity of the fairy gradually weakened. Years, memories have been screened and beautified by time, and I hope more and more for the ordinary happiness, peace and health, good health, relatives to support, sons and filial piety, and companions by my side. Weakened into ordinary people. And what Yuan Niang didn't have, she hoped that Tao Yao could have the happiness that ordinary people have.
Back in the palace, Tao Yao Yi Ying Yan's orders invited the girl from Chunfenglou, Yan Wan, who was picked up by her, and brought a famous qin - an old saying. , the realm of beauty. Ying Yan drank light sake and listened as if awake. Yan Wan played one song after another, the strings of the piano had cut through her fingers, and blood splashed out with the movements of her fingers. The pain was nothing, she was picked up by her. After the panic, she realized that she was She was taken to the palace, and she just played the piano and sang. Compared with the past, she had much less work. She was used to listening to men's rhetoric and seeing men's playfulness. She often imagined that such a handsome boy would meet her. She was determined, but she finally stopped in her fantasy. She earned money from men, but she had been relying on herself to support her.
"How about I married you?"
The sound of the piano came to an abrupt end, and only Yan Wan's face was stunned under the moonlight. From the half-drunk and half-awake expression on Ying Yan's face, she couldn't guess whether he was talking drunkenly or was asking from the heart? After a moment of shock, she realized her fault and hurriedly pleaded with him.
"You don't want to?" Ying Yan asked angrily, before Yan Wan answered, "Send Miss Yan Wan back."
Tao Yao understood what Ying Yan meant, this time it was time to send Miss Yanwan back to Yanchun Tower, because the previous few times he had said to send Miss Yanwan to rest.
In the middle of the night, after sending Yan Wan off, Tao Yao was in no hurry to go back, pacing in the quiet street. Today, she wore a moonlit gauze skirt with wide sleeves and waist, and the moonlight poured down, making her even more beautiful. A bit of hazy feeling, coupled with her usual indifference, she looks like a fairy who falls into the mortal world and does not eat fireworks.
A man with black hair and white clothes appeared three feet away from the peach demon, with a relaxed attitude, more like a fairy than a fairy, without the slightest demon appearance.
"Are you a peach demon?" In this quiet night, his voice was particularly cold.
A demon, the same temperature, exactly the same as the peach demon, this is a phenomenon that has never happened before.
Tao Yao ignores him. She is the famous Tao Da Yao with a very strong relationship background. Which monster doesn't have a bit of reverence for saying this famous name
"Not as beautiful as my family Mo'er." Suddenly he popped out a word from his mouth that seemed to be from the bottom of his heart.
There is no concept of beauty in Tao Yao's heart, she calmly said: "The appraisal is over, but there are other needs?" No matter who will find a strange monster for no reason.
He said: "Of course, I need one of your ten thousand years peach."
Tao Yao said: "This demon has long been unable to bear fruit, where did the peaches come from. Now only the Kunlun Mountains of the Queen Mother of the West have peaches, to find peaches you have to find her!"
He said, "I only want the 10,000-year-old peach, but she doesn't have it." What he said was extremely arrogant!
"I'm afraid that these three worlds have already disappeared!"
He said faintly: "But I heard that the blood of the peach demon is ten thousand times stronger than the fruit of the peach demon! I wonder if this is true?"
"That's true!" Tao Yao said, "and not only ten thousand times, but ten thousand times. Otherwise, I have lived in vain for so many years!"
He curled the corners of his lips, smiled contentedly, and said, "So good!"
Tao Yao also smiled, looking at the crescent moon and smiling even more, "Actually, it's very easy to bleed you, it depends on what you use in exchange?"
"I thought we needed a fight," he said lightly.
"This beautiful time is beautiful, and this demon doesn't like to be rough." Tao Yao sat on the bluestone steps, holding her chin in her hands, and looked up at the man in white.
He looked around leisurely, it was barely a good day, "I thought it was the most reasonable thing to do. If you win, I can give you your blood with peace of mind. But since you don't think it's good to fight, I'll exchange blood for blood. "
"What do I want your blood for?"
He still smiled: "How can you know it's useless if you don't try?" He smiled, but Tao Yao saw the provocation in that smile through the moonlight. "Then give it a try, come here." He walked in slowly with a smile, the shadow covered Tao Yao's figure, she leaned towards his pressure and got up.
Tao Yao's stature was only up to his nose, and she just saw the corners of his mouth twitching when she looked up. She said softly, "I tried it," and leaned toward his neck. She had never felt so bloody, completely She lost the beautiful image of the old demon, but the closer she got to his blood vessels, the more urgent she became. Until the blood entered between her lips and teeth, the coolness and stickiness made the blood in her whole body scream.
He stiffened, waiting for her to finish, her soft lips sucking on his skin made him lose his indifference, he even wondered if he would be sucked dry by her, but no, she finally added He licked his wound, and the numbness spread all over his body instantly.
"How?" He watched as she licked the blood from her lips with her tongue.
"You must also know that this demon tastes the same as everything you eat." Tao Yao said foolishly.
He was noncommittal, still smiling, "That means we have to fight?"
"Is there any reason why this demon drank your blood?" Tao Yao's eyes flashed with constriction, "I wonder if you can read my blood is more precious and promise me two conditions?"
"What conditions?"
"First: No third party should know about this matter." Tao Yao said, she was bled by a monster, and when various versions passed down, how did she get a foothold in the monster world!
"As long as you don't say it." Peng Xiao said.
"It's so good. The second one: you have to spend some time with me to play a scene of "A man searching for a baby for a long time and he went through ups and downs and finally got married, but the daughter who died of a violent illness in the night vowed not to marry again"." Tao Yao sees With his seemingly confused expression, he smiled shyly and said, "Don't worry, although the name is a bit long, the play is extremely short! How?"
Afraid that he would not agree, Tao Yao said again: "It's very simple, just do me a favor, Tao Yao I am very grateful. This is better than we are rough at the moment, not to mention who wins and who loses in the end, according to I don't think you and I will have any good results." The real power of the demon method needs to be done to know.
"Okay." He finally nodded, "Give the blood first."
He took out a small green bead and threw it to the peach demon. She took it over, she knew this treasure, the treasure of the Queen Mother of the West, Jingzhu, can purify all liquids, making them purer, purer, and fresh for a long time. With her blood, meeting such a baby again is the icing on the cake.
Using the hand as a sword, the blood on the wrist continued to flow down in an instant, and the moment when the red blood touched the green bowl, it was bright and shining like a star. She would pay as much as she sucked him, and when she felt it was enough, she smoothed the wound. Tao Yao played with it for a while, threw it again, and returned it to him.
"I'm waiting for you." Tao Yao said.
He left, and she shouted that sentence.
"Peng Xiao." His voice echoed in the sky.
It must be his name. The "Peng Xiao" peach demon chewed on the spot a few times, thinking that it was smooth and no longer lingering.
During the flight, Peng Xiao laughed as she recited the scene of "A man looking for a baby for a thousand miles... After all the ups and downs, the family is unpredictable... When the dead girl swears to never marry after a sudden illness at night".
