(The anti-theft chapter, the correct chapter content will be replaced at 6:00 tomorrow morning, the number of words is only a lot, the first website is 17K, thank you for your understanding~)
In front of her eyes was a big red hijab covered with a layer of mandarin ducks and acacia, under the red hijab, the tassels adorned with small pearls swayed slightly with the shaking of Chu Lian's body, drawing a beautiful arc.
There is a light agarwood fragrance floating in the air indoors, as if it can calm people's hearts.
Chu Lian raised the red hijab slightly, and looked at the layout of the entire new house.
A dragon and phoenix red candle with the thickness of a child's arm is burning on the table case, and "happy fruit" is offered in front of the red candle. Next to the table is a four seasons wishful screen carved with agarwood wood, and four square-sized pieces are inlaid on the screen. Consistent Lantian jade.
The things in front of me are really exactly the same as those described in the novel!
Chu Lian was delighted. Now she was sure that she had traveled to the novel she had read before and became the heroine described in the novel!
And what she is experiencing now is exactly the plot described at the beginning of the novel.
Thinking of marrying such a good man, Chu Lian was full of expectations!
She will never be as unruly as the heroine "Chu Lian" in the original novel. She wants to be a good wife, live a carefree life with her husband, manage her own small family well, and make up for her in modern times. sorry.
It's just a pity that when she got into the book, she only read half of the novel.
While she was in a trance, there were chaotic footsteps and human voices outside. Chu Lian hurriedly put down her hijab and sat upright.
Fu Yan hurried in to remind, "Miss Six, Xi Niang and Young Master are here."
Xi Yan hastily adjusted Chu Lian's wedding clothes, and then stood aside respectfully with Fu Yan.
Chu Lian responded lightly, her heart was pounding, she was really nervous. I felt like my heart was going to pop out of my throat.
The loud congratulations of Xi Niang and some men's hearty and teasing voices sounded from outside. Suddenly, the quiet atmosphere in the inner room was disrupted and became beaming.
"Sanlang, quickly take off the hijab and let us see how beautiful my sister-in-law is!"
"That's right, He Sanlang, we can't wait!"
Xi Niang also joked a few words in response, and cheerfully handed the golden scales in the tray carried by the maid beside him to He Jiasanlang, "Third young master, take off the hijab, it's all you want!"
Everyone's eyes fell on the bride who was sitting neatly beside the bed, waiting to see how beautiful the bride of the He family would be.
Therefore, no one noticed the sarcasm and disdain that flashed in the groom's eyes.
Sitting by the bed, Chu Lian was covered by a veil, and could only see a pair of black and red wedding boots in front of him, embroidered with complicated flowing cloud patterns, which were really beautiful.
Then the golden scale appeared under Dahong's hijab, and the next second, Minghong's world became shiny, as if he couldn't bear the sudden light for a while, Chu Lian subconsciously squinted his eyes.
Curved brows and red lips, almond eyes and peach cheeks, the bride whose hijab has been lifted has a bright face, like a fresh lotus blooming, shy and charming.
Chu Lian only raised her head and glanced at her future husband He Changdi hastily, then hurriedly lowered her head, not daring to look any further.
But it was this overwhelming shyness that gave the beautiful bride in front of her a new look. Immediately, some good friends started booing.
"Sanlang, you are so lucky!"
Even the second young master patted his brother's broad and strong shoulder with satisfaction. Affirmed the new sister-in-law.
Soon, He Changdi was dragged out to drink by his classmates and friends. The bridesmaids left a few words of advice and then left, and the new house returned to calm.
Chu Lian's heart was still pounding. Thinking of the hasty gesture just now, she still couldn't believe that such a handsome and high-quality man would really be her husband in the future!
Chu Lian, who was immersed in joy, completely ignored the slight difference in the eyes that just collided with each other.
But Nanny Gui, who was packing up her things, frowned tightly. She is in her thirties and has seen countless people. Just now, when everyone was paying attention to the face of the bride, what she saw was the expression of the new uncle. .
Whether you are satisfied with the bride, you can tell the general idea from the man's eyes.
Nanny Gui is very confident in Chu Lian's appearance, but she is a bright girl like a flower. After the new son-in-law saw it, there was not even the slightest surprise in her deep pool-like eyes. Gujing, calm and without waves, can't stir up any ripples.
Thinking of this, Nanny Gui turned her head to look at Miss Six who was sitting by the bed, the corners of her mouth could not be restrained raised, feeling uneasy in her heart, she secretly hoped that her vision was wrong.
Unless he really had a heart of stone, which man would be willing not to love such a flowery and beautiful family member.
Chu Lian reached out and wanted to take off the phoenix crown on his head, but was held down by Xi Yan who was at the side, "Miss Six, just now Xi Niang explained that the phoenix crown will be reserved for the third young master to take it off for you personally." of."
Chu Lian put down his hands helplessly, twisted his sore neck, and had no choice but to give up.
Xi Yan looked at Miss Six's appearance a little funny, "Miss Six, don't worry, there won't be a long trouble ahead, Mrs. He is in charge, and my uncle will come back from time to time."
Xi Yan made a joke, making Chu Lian's face turn red.
"As long as you talk a lot, why do you look like a boring gourd on weekdays?"
Chu Lian gave her a reproachful look, and felt relieved, got up, and directed a few servant girls to tidy up the things she had brought. Within half an hour, a little servant girl announced outside that the uncle had returned.
The bed was covered with peanuts, longan and other things under the red quilt. Chu Lian asked Nanny Gui to clean them up, and He Changdi also went into the outside room at this time.
This time He Changdi was not accompanied by anyone else, only Xi Niang who came to teach the rules.
When He Changdi entered the inner room, Xi Niang smiled and asked the servant girl to bring over the prepared wine.
"Third young master, third grandma, after drinking the Hebei wine, we will be a couple sharing weal and woe in the future!" Xi Niang handed over the Heji wine with a smile on her face.
He Changdi's figure is tall and straight, like an indomitable and strong pine tree, which makes people look up to him.
He took his own glass, but still stood in front of the bed, without moving a step, Xi Niang suddenly felt that the atmosphere in the new house was depressed, secretly wiped the cold sweat from her head, and handed another glass of Hebei wine to Chu Lian with a smile.
"When the third young master and the third grandma have drunk the wine, the third young master will remove the phoenix crown from the third grandma's head with his own hands, and the couple will have a peaceful and beautiful life in the future."
As soon as Xi Niang's auspicious words fell, He Changdi said coldly: "Okay, you can step back."
ha? Before the bride came back to her senses, she subconsciously said, "Third Young Master, you haven't had a drink yet..."
"But you didn't hear what I said?" He Changdi's voice suddenly became serious, adding a hint of coldness to the warm and fragrant air in the room.
Xi Niang was born as a servant girl, so she dared not quarrel with the third young master of the He family, she replied in fear, left a few auspicious words, and hurriedly led the little maids back.
Thinking hard, I don't know why the third young master of the He family suddenly went crazy, and he only lamented that he might be the first bride to be kicked out of the new house.
Chu Lian, who lowered his head and waited to drink the wine, was also stunned for a moment, not understanding what happened to He Changdi.
Why is this scene different from the one described in the novel
When her eyes were still confused, He Changdi yelled out Nanny Gui Xiyan and others again.
Chu Lian raised his head to look at He Jiasanlang, with picturesque eyebrows and clear outlines. After seeing the real person, his facial features were as beautiful as a natural jade. Chu Lian thought he was more handsome than described in the novel, but the uncontrollable frost in his eyebrows and eyes was what happened? What's with the cold, even mocking eyes that looked at her
For a moment Chu Lian was stunned by this cold and arrogant face, a little at a loss.
According to the development of the plot in the novel, although He Changdi did not consummate the house because of the heroine's refusal, He Changdi also treated the heroine tenderly in the new house.
But the current situation made her have a bad feeling.
Seemingly seeing the puzzlement in Chu Lian's bright black eyes, He Changdi took a step forward. He bent down slightly. There was no trace of tenderness or joy in Hantan's eyes, which were as cold as several feet of ice. He stared closely at Looking at the flowery girl in front of him, he seemed to want to find something from her eyes.
After taking a panoramic view of the girl's panic, He Changdi suddenly raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a cold smile. He was obviously a handsome and extraordinary man, full of righteousness, but when he smiled like this, there was a little more Extremely evil.
Chu Lian was confused by He Changdi's appearance for a moment, so he couldn't respond.
But then, He Changdi raised his hand slightly, and slowly poured the Hejin wine in the glass on the ground...
Chu Lian watched his actions in disbelief, and saw that the small cup of Hebei wine left dark wet marks on the bright red Persian carpet.
Subconsciously, he murmured, "What are you doing?"
Before Chu Lian could react, the glass of Hejin wine in her hand was also blown away, and the liquid spilled on her red wedding dress. In the next second, someone pinched her wrist tightly, icy cold to the bone The voice rang in Chu Lian's ear: "Can't you see what I am doing? My lady!"
Fuck, what the hell is going on, why is it not acting according to the script, Chu Lian wailed in horror and anger in her heart, but before she could speak, He Changdi rudely pulled off the phoenix crown on her head and threw it at her. On the ground, Feng Guan wore her jet-black hair in a bun, which made her scalp ache.
He Changdi suppressed his voice and roared angrily: "You are not worthy of this phoenix crown!"
Chu Lian reached out and pushed the man's chest in front of him, but his strength was too weak, scratching the man's body was like a cat's claw, without any power at all.
Seeing her resistance, He Changdi became even more angry. His eyes turned red, and he grabbed Chu Lian's slender and white neck. The veins in his slender hands burst out, and the hatred in his eyes was full!
Chu Lian clearly felt the murderous intent!
Poor Chu Lian had never seen such a battle before, she could only feel the pain in her neck squeezed by the man, and she couldn't breathe, as if she was going to die in the next moment!
The slender white face was already bruised from being suppressed, and He Changdi felt that as long as his wrist was a little more vigorous, he could get rid of this "poisonous woman" in front of him forever!
But thinking of his grandmother full of anticipation, his elder brothers who are thinking of him, and the reputation of the British government and the Jing'anbo mansion, he stared at his eyes full of hatred and could only slowly let go of his hand, leaving this place for the time being. "Bitch" dies!
After the neck was loosened, Chu Lian's face was pale, and she touched the neck with bruises with both hands, and the air rushed into her throat, which made her cough violently uncontrollably.
If she was really strangled to death by her newlywed husband, she would be the saddest time-traveling girl in the world.
Chu Lian's throat was so dry and uncomfortable that he couldn't even speak, and could only hold his chest and pant violently.
He Changdi's face became more gloomy and ugly, and he sneered sinisterly, "Miss Chu Six, don't think you are the only one who is smart!" Chu Lian frowned and stared at He Changdi's tall figure, her black eyebrows were tightly furrowed, looking There was also a trace of inquiry in He Changdi's eyes.
She was very puzzled. In the novel, He Changdi was magnanimous, magnanimous, and a rare stalwart gentleman, but the person in front of him was the same as the one described in the book except for his appearance, but his personality was completely different.
If He Changdi in the novel is a bright moon, then He Changdi in front of him is a gust of wind blowing in the dark night, making people shiver!
What went wrong
Chu Lian couldn't figure it out after thinking hard, because apart from He Changdi's accident, everything was exactly the same as in the novel!
But the groom, He Jiasaburo, who was standing with his hands behind his back, seemed to be blinded if he took another look at the charming lady lying on the ground, he ruthlessly shook his sleeves, and strode away from the new house! Nothing left!
When He Changdi left, Nanny Gui and several of Chu Lian's maidservants who had been driven outside hurried in.
When she saw Chu Lian lying on the ground with messy bun, dazed in a daze, and Feng Guan who had fallen to the ground, Nanny Gui's eyes turned red, and she imagined the scene in the new house just now.
"Miss Six, get up quickly, the ground is cold, be careful."
Nanny Gui secretly wiped her eye sockets, and helped Chu Lian up with Jing Yan, letting her sit on the edge of the bed to rest.
Let Xiyan go to the cleaning room to fetch hot water, and Nanny Gui asked softly at the side: "Miss Six was just with Uncle, what happened? Miss Six was wronged?"
Chu Lian also came to her senses at this time, she still couldn't figure out how He Changdi's character became like this.
Looking up at "Chu Lian"'s nanny since she was a child and a few big maids who came as a dowry, Chu Lian resisted the pain on his neck and doubts in his heart, and twitched the corners of his mouth at them so that he could see It doesn't look so miserable. It's just because she knows that the people around her are sincere, and they really think about Chu Lian.
"It's nothing, Mammy, don't worry. Let Fu Yan and the others prepare some hot water, I'll go wash and change out the cumbersome wedding clothes on my body."
She deliberately changed the topic, it seems that she deliberately concealed it, but Nanny Gui couldn't ask further questions.
She just told her worriedly, "Miss Six, remember, there are still mothers and a few maids by your side in everything!"
Chu Lian nodded absent-mindedly, which made Nanny Gui very worried.
Here, when Fuyan was waiting for Chu Lian to take a bath, she was shocked when she found the bruise on her slender neck, but she was also clever, and she didn't ask Chu Lian what was going on, but avoided Then Chu Lian told Nanny Gui about it.
After soaking in a hot bath and changing into flimsy scarlet pajamas, the physical relief finally dispelled the fear that He Changdi suddenly brought to Chu Lian.
When Chu Lian came out of the clean room, Ming Yan had already packed the wedding bed, Fu Yan helped her to the dressing table, and waited for her to wipe the soap. Chu Lian drank another cup of fragrant tea, and it was already Haishi.
Logically speaking, the groom should return to the new house at this time.
Although Chu Lian didn't understand why He Changdi's personality changed drastically, she still waited patiently.
In the end, only a little maid in Tsing Yi came...
The little maid in Tsing Yi passed on a message: "Third Mistress, the Third Young Master was given a few more drinks by the princes and classmates at the banquet ahead. If he drank too much, he was afraid that Grandma would be smoked. He has already placed it in the study. Let Grandma take a rest quickly." .”
After hearing the words of the little girl in Tsing Yi, Gui Momo and the others were stunned!
He Sanlang actually doesn't plan to enter the new house!
If this gets out, how will their young lady behave!
"Miss Six, what should I do? Why don't I ask someone to invite the third young master?" Nanny Gui couldn't figure out why He Changdi didn't even want to enter the new house. It's completely impossible to go to Jing'anbo Mansion or He Jiasaburo. Before the two got married, they had never met each other before, so why did they have any grievances
But Chu Lian shook his head and dismissed the little girl in Tsing Yi.
"No need, Nanny, you go to bed, we don't need to ask you, He Sanlang will go back to his new house."
The reason why Chu Lian said this was entirely because of what happened just now. Since He Changdi said something to her inexplicably, and almost strangled himself to death, but left a thread, he won't come to the new house now. How could it be that she was really drunk? When he came in just now, she didn't smell the slightest smell of alcohol on him.
He did this on purpose, to humiliate her!
Since he did this on purpose, how could she invite him back? Isn't this a self-inflicted humiliation
Besides, when the couple is in the bridal chamber, the wife still asks the husband to enter the new house!
"Miss Six!" Fu Yan was stubborn and refused to go to sleep at all, how could the third young master be like this, Miss Six is the wife he is currently marrying!
"Okay, okay, let's go wash up and rest, we have to get up early tomorrow, even if you are all wasted here, it's useless."
Nanny Gui had no choice but to take a few big maids out, and Chu Lian was the only one left in the new house.
She sat by the bed, went over what happened before, and recalled the plot of the novel again. Then he took out the yuan handkerchief hidden under the quilt, found a silver needle, pricked it on the ring finger, then dripped the blood on the yuan handkerchief, and finally put away the disguised yuan handkerchief .
In modern times, her parents died young, and her family was poor. After a lot of hard work, intrigues with others in the workplace, double-sided swords, and only then did she have a better life. Therefore, Chu Lian is not simple, he is even very shrewd and tenacious, and knows how to judge the situation.
Although she has always looked forward to beautiful and sincere feelings, it does not mean that she is ignorant.
Everything that happened before was enough for her to think deeply, and she even began to wonder if the current He Changdi was like her, not the original product.
Chu Lian is confident that she is not a soft persimmon, who can pinch it if she wants.
The most urgent thing now is to figure out the situation.
Thinking of this, Chu Lian was glad that he became a prophet after reading the novel.
The situation is unclear now, but she won't lose her face in vain! If He Changdi is still the original He Changdi, of course she doesn't mind being nice to him and treating him as her closest husband, but if He Changdi has changed and become a scumbag, then she won't let him play tricks on her applauding.
After thinking about all this, Chu Lian lifted off the warm mandarin duck big red brocade quilt and got in. Not long after, she fell into a sweet dreamland.
"What's going on over there?" A tall and thin figure hidden under the dim candlelight asked coldly an inconspicuous little maid behind her.
"Go back to the third young master, the third grandma has already rested."
"What!" He Changdi's right hand hanging by his side was suddenly clenched tightly, and the bluish-white knuckles could be seen.
Chu Lian's reaction was completely beyond He Changdi's expectations. It was true that he deliberately humiliated Chu Lian by not going to the new house, but he never expected that this bitch could still sleep!
Thinking of all the things in his previous life, He Changdi only felt that the hatred was hard to get rid of. He couldn't change his marriage, so he wouldn't let this woman who occupied his wife's position have a good day, otherwise how could he be worthy of the harm she caused him in the previous life? !
Other people's spring festival is worth a thousand dollars, but He Changdi wished that the night would pass sooner. He wanted to see the ugly expression of his good wife who couldn't hand over the yuan handkerchief the next day.
Sure enough, before dawn, Chu Lian, who was sleeping soundly, heard the slight rustling sound of undressing by the bed, and the wedding candles were still lit in the bridal room, and she could clearly see the person standing by the bed undressing when she opened her eyes slightly who is it.
He Changdi has a slender figure, but does not make people feel thin. He has long eyebrows and deep eyes, and his facial features are handsome and heroic. Looking at him under the dim light, his face lacks the gloom and coldness in the daytime, and he is as handsome as a god . Really worthy of the reputation of "He Jiayu Saburo".
He Sanlang at this time is in line with the description in the book.
But thinking of He Changdi's changes, Chu Lian rolled his eyes, closed them, and continued to sleep.
He Changdi sat in the study for most of the night, feeling restless. It was the beginning of winter, and no matter how angry a man was, he would be frozen all over.
He casually took off his outer robe, threw it aside, and lifted the red curtain of the Qiangong bed. What he saw made him extinguish a lot of fire, as if he had been doused with gasoline, and it burned up instantly.
I saw Chu Lian sleeping under the warm brocade quilt with flushed cheeks, disheveled hair, and slightly curled up mouth. He was extremely comfortable, and he didn't look troubled at all!
But he was suffering from the cold in the cold study, his heart was blocked, and he couldn't even eat dinner.
Immediately, He Changdi felt that his deliberate snubbing of Chu Lian was like hitting cotton.
He took a deep breath, looked coldly at Chu Lian who was huddled in the warm quilt, and then with a big palm, he was about to tear the warm quilt off Chu Lian's body.
Chu Lian was used to sleeping alone before, and likes to wrap herself in a quilt when sleeping, which is warmer. When He Changdi pulled her quilt in this way, not only was the quilt not pulled out, but he also turned Chu Lian over and occupied the other half of the Qiangong bed which was empty.
