Chapter 146 Two or three questions on the moonlit night
The wedding is held tomorrow?
As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the room.
After a moment, the bandit, the younger brother, stepped forward in panic: "Boss, what...how does this happen? What if the two of them really get married?"
The boss raised his hand to stop the younger brother from continuing, his expression was serious, not like he was joking.
Xia Shang and Yue Haitang were still stunned on the spot. Mr. Zhuo also stood up and said: "Marriage should be chosen on a good time and auspicious day, with etiquette and customs. How can you be so hasty?"
"Old guy, I have the final say here. If you don't get married, then you are a fake couple. Since you are not a couple, this pretty little lady will be detained by us in the cottage."
Xia Shang was also anxious: "I promised to let him go after receiving the ransom, why can't I keep my word?"
"If you are not husband and wife, then you have lied to me! You broke your promise first, and I will naturally regret it. If you are truly in love, wouldn't it be nice to get married in my village? I, Zhang Tieniu, have done too many evil things in my life.
I haven't done any good deeds. This time I will act as a matchmaker for you, which can be regarded as accumulating some merit. As the saying goes, Tao would rather tear down ten temples than regret one marriage. How can I let go of such a great good deed? Whether we get married or not, I will not regret it.
I’ll give you some time to think about it, until I come again at dawn, don’t let me down then!”
After that, he waved to the younger brother behind him, "Let's go."
The thatched cottage was locked again, leaving the three people in shock.
Mr. Zhuo stood for a while and silently went to a corner of the room. It had nothing to do with him at this time. It still depends on the person involved's plan.
But Mr. Zhuo muttered in his heart: "As one of the best masters in the world, everyone talks about the perverted Shuiyue Fairy marrying an ordinary person who doesn't know martial arts... If this news spreads to the world, won't it cause a commotion?
"
On the other side, Xia Shang lit the oil lamp first, then went to Deyue Haitang and said softly: "How is the injury? Are you feeling unwell?"
The firelight illuminated Yue Haitang's face. It was a delicate and beautiful young face, no more than eighteen years old. Her cheeks were as clear as jade, and her facial features were as delicate and flawless as the quiet narcissus. But there was something in her eyes.
Xia Shang has never understood the calmness and calmness that are inconsistent with his apparent age. He always feels that Haitang's eyes give people a sense of vicissitudes of life.
At this moment, Yue Haitang was looking at Xia Shang, watching his every move, silent, listening to him quietly, expressionless and unaware of his thoughts, which gave people an indescribable weirdness.
"It doesn't matter."
Yue Haitang didn't even blink when she said these two words lightly.
Xia Shang frowned and coughed awkwardly: "Well... don't be nervous, I'll think of something."
Yue Haitang didn't answer, her eyes followed Xia Shang's pace back and forth.
Xia Shang looked at the window and found that it was not tightly sealed: "We can sneak away through the window overnight."
Yue Haitang still didn't respond.
"Then you teach me martial arts? I will take you out tomorrow?"
"or……"
"Stop talking." Yue Haitang finally said calmly, "I know what you mean. Cooperating with them in acting is the best choice. I understand this."
"so what?"
"So I decided to cooperate with you in this play. After all, you saved me."
Xia Shang was finally relieved. He could see that this woman had an extraordinary status. The more extraordinary a woman was, the harder it would be for her to accept such an arrangement.
Xia Shang was worried that she would not be able to accept such a thing and the conflict between the two parties would intensify, and all three of them would be in danger.
At least for now, these bandits are not as evil as imagined, so avoidable conflicts should be avoided as much as possible.
With the consent of the person concerned, Xia Shang felt at ease.
"In that case, go to sleep."
The halo of light before dawn tried to penetrate through the window outside the house. The three people inside were still exhausted, but no one could feel sleepy.
Perhaps it was the fake marriage that made the people in the room more awkward, and they stayed in silence for a long time.
Mr. Zhuo stood at the window and looked at the unobstructed scenery. The faint sound of the stream was particularly clear.
Xia Shang and Yue Haitang sat beside the small bed, separated by one person, and nodded in silence for a long time.
"Do you have a wife or concubines?"
I don't know why Yue Haitang asked such a question, Xia Shang didn't think much and answered truthfully: "There is only a wife in the family, but no concubines."
"My first wife? How does she look like?"
"The fish is sinking and the geese are falling, the moon is closed and the flowers are shy. He looks at the beautiful city and then the country. He is the most beautiful person in the world."
Xia Shang's face was like a peach blossom, and the joy in his heart was beyond words.
Yue Haitang frowned: "Is it really that good?"
"Really, if you get a wife like this, what else can a husband ask for?"
"Then you are really the luckiest person in the world."
"This is reasonable, I agree."
"Seeing you like this, are you afraid that you will fall in love with your beloved wife?"
"Yes."
"Then what happens tomorrow will wrong you?"
At this point, he suddenly saw that the woman he was talking to was a little unhappy. Xia Shang looked at her and saw a frosty ice sculpture standing not far away, with an expression that said people and animals should not get close to her. Xia Shang didn't know what to say.
In the blink of an eye, a ray of morning light broke away from the shackles of the window paper and penetrated into the hut through the small gap in the window, becoming more and more intense.
Then, a few cock crows broke the silence, and everyone in the small mountain col woke up.
The two bandits who got the letter last night just set off today to exchange money at Zhujia Bookstore in Yangzhou. Zhang Tieniu, the head of Kuangfeng Village, also brought his younger brother to the thatched house early in the morning. He opened the door and glanced at the three people in the thatched house.
, asked in a low voice: "How is it? Have you thought about it all?"
Xia Shang didn't say anything and looked at Yue Haitang.
Yue Haitang frowned, stepped forward and said, "I've thought about it, and we'll get married in the village."
"Hahaha! Okay! Great!" Zhang Tieniu laughed wildly and patted his brother on the shoulder, "Look, aren't they a real couple? It's rare for me, Zhang Tieniu, to do a good deed. Kuangfeng Village may not have been happy for a long time. Today
This time is just right, let your marriage bring happiness to our house."
"Wait a minute!" Yue Haitang suddenly interrupted, "It's okay to get married, but the wedding etiquette and customs cannot be reduced, and the cost of purchasing and decorating cannot be reduced. Everything must be done according to standards and cannot be reduced."
"Hey! You little lady really has a lot to do. That's all. Just as you requested, I will send people to buy everything you need. I will never wrong the bride, and I will definitely make the groom look good.
It’s just that I’m short of time, where can I find these things?”
"Don't worry, we can wait." Yue Haitang said calmly.
"It's best this way. Since we have a wedding, I have to ask you to stay in the village for a few more days."
After some exchanges, we finally reached an agreement.
Xia Shang listened silently throughout the whole process, a little confused and frowning, looking at Yue Haitang wondering what her plan was.
No matter what, she will never be what she said... (To be continued)
