Chapter 215
Is it this person?Chu Niannian thought in his heart, his father really didn't look like this.In her imagination, she should be a little taller and stronger, and a little more masculine, and like the faults of all men in the Chu family, when she smiles, her face is full of peach blossoms.
She followed her ancestor and waited with bated breath. The ancestor stopped in front of a wine shop, took a look inside and walked into the shop. The little white-faced scholar passed her by without even meeting his eyes.
Chu Niannian breathed a sigh of relief, but she didn't let go of her vigilance. She felt that she was a resentful woman who came to investigate her lover's affair. She was worried, knowing that the next development would break her heart, but she still refused to give up and go home.
The old ancestor ordered the most expensive and best wine here, and the shopkeeper repeatedly promised that the gods would be drunk for three days after drinking a sip. The old ancestor just frowned after drinking a bowl.She shook her head and said no, she didn't want the rest of the wine, and walked out of the wine shop under the eyes of others.
Chu Niannian stared at every man who passed by the old ancestor. He had to say that the men who appeared here were ordinary passers-by. How could these people make the old ancestor fall in love with them? What kind of man does her ancestors like? Even if this man is her ancestor, jealousy dominates.
After walking down for a long time, I saw that the old ancestor was walking all the time, and Chu Niannian followed her every step of the way. Fortunately, she was invisible, and the old ancestor couldn't see her, so she dared to follow her so boldly.After a lot of time, I watched her from every angle countless times, deeply remembered in my heart, but I still can't get tired of watching her.
In the end, the old ancestor rested in a pavilion by the roadside, and Chu Niannian sat beside her, saying to himself, it's okay, no one will see.
She had been a voyeur for a long time, and she became more and more courageous. She reached out and put her hand on the old ancestor's hand, and it seemed that the two were sitting side by side holding hands.
"It's really boring."
The old ancestor suddenly made a sound, and Chu Niannian withdrew her hand in fright. She thought she had been seen, but when she recovered, she realized that it was the old ancestor talking to herself.
She was looking at the darkening sky in the distance. She hadn't smiled in the past half a day. In her eyes, everything was boring. She expected too much, thinking that she would find fun here.
The food she ate was not the best, the wine she drank could not satisfy her, and she no longer knew what happiness was.There should be something else to make her not so boring.Otherwise, she doesn't know where to go, what to do, and how to live.
The sky darkened quickly, as cloudy clouds spread across the sky overhead.The cold wind brought raindrops down, and the rainwater splashed to the side of the small pavilion.
There were bustling sounds from the other side of the road. Many people were hurrying, with chaotic footsteps and complaints one after another. The bright red color dimmed in the cloudy rain, and the festive atmosphere was also diluted.It was a team coming from thousands of miles away to greet relatives. A woman with a loud voice ran in small steps in front, turning her head from time to time and shouting to the people behind: "Let's hide in front, be careful of the bride in the sedan chair, how many of you are there?" Take it lightly, this is the only time in a girl's life."
Although they were extremely embarrassed by the rain, everyone still had a smile on their faces. The welcoming team came to the pavilion one after another. The red sedan chair for the bride was carried by four bearers and placed on the In the middle of the pavilion, the sedan chair is gorgeously and exquisitely decorated, pasted with gold and silver, and the body of the sedan chair is covered with colorful phoenixes and golden dragons, but the bright red ribbon is wet by the water and droops listlessly.
The ancestors are here, and the welcoming team stays at their own positions, looking embarrassed, but they are all well-behaved.
Xi Niang was the most embarrassing, the rouge and gouache that had been painstakingly painted on her face was washed into a big face by the rain, and she didn't dare to move around, so she wiped the water droplets from her forehead. Xi Niang said a few good words and walked to the side of the big red sedan chair .
A shy and timid female voice came out from inside the sedan chair. Listen carefully, it turned out to be a little girl who was not yet an adult, "Xi Niang, I'm still afraid."
Women in ancient times were married off at a very young age. Unlike modern people, there are leftover women. Chu Niannian looked in through the gaps in the sedan chair and saw the girl inside. She was a fair and round girl. Calculating the age, it should be a child who is taking the exam in trouble.
I don't have a partner in my twenties, and a little girl in ancient times was forced to marry before she was sensible. Aren't these two extremes?
Chu Niannian leaned towards the old ancestor and rested her head on the old ancestor's shoulder. She didn't actually touch it, even if she couldn't touch it, the behavior of self-comforting made her satisfied.
Xi Niang must not know how terrible it is to smile on a messy face, so she showed a big smile and said to the little girl in a good voice: "What are you afraid of? One pair. The two elders of the Chu family both like daughters, and they will treat you as their own daughter after you pass by, so you just take good care of them, and they will naturally treat you well."
"En." The little girl still wanted to ask how her husband was doing, but she was too thin-skinned to ask.
Seeing that Xi Niang smiled and said a long paragraph to her, she only praised the man to the sky, Chu Niannian laughed, but she didn't expect that the old ancestor not only didn't smile, but showed a thoughtful expression on the contrary. She couldn't laugh anymore, because she remembered what she had overlooked. The team to welcome the bride was sent by the Chu family. Doesn't that mean...
