Episode 5: The man loves the bride, and the woman despises her ex-husband 2

The groom shook his head: "Mother, didn't you agree well before? Why did you suddenly change your mind? Yingying, there's nothing wrong with her. Why do you come to make trouble at this time?"

"I'm noisy? I'm going to make trouble!" The more the old woman said, the more angry she became. "Anyway, you go with me. The farther away from their mother and daughter, the better. I will never see them again in my life!"

The bride's mother was not happy: "Mother-in-law, what is this? Ronger and Yingying have become husband and wife. How can you go back on your word at this time? What can Yingying do in the future? How can we meet people in the Tang family in the future?

The old woman only did nothing: "Rong'er, you can't go."

The groom shook his head: "I can't leave my wife who just passed by. Mother, even if you divorce your wife, you have to have a reason. If you don't say a reason why I have to leave Yingying, I will never go with you.

"That's right. If our Yingying doesn't do well, just mention it. Yingying is a clever child. As long as she is wrong, she will definitely change it." When the bride's mother saw her son-in-law standing on her side, she felt more secure and her tone was no longer sharp.

The old woman was isolated and helpless, looking at her son and daughter-in-law.

"Mother..." The groom shouted tentatively.

"Don't say anything," the old woman immediately raised her hand and interrupted. "There's nothing wrong with Yingying, but you can't be together. It's meaningless to say more words. Just go with your mother.

The bride's mother refused: "This won't work. If you don't make it clear today, I will never give up."

The servants around the new house stretched out their ears curiously, but only heard the silence in the room.

The old woman shook her head slightly: "I'm afraid the result is that none of you want to hear." With that, he slowly took out something from his arms, and the other three people in the room were stunned.

Wei Tanyi woke up from a dream.

The little movement on the roof could not be detected, but he caught it in his sleep, quietly got down the bed, leaned out of the slightly open window, hooked the wooden beam and turned over the roof.

On the eaves of the courtyard, a vague shadow is standing there motionless, as if waiting for something.

"Excuse me..." Wei Tanyi slowly opened his mouth.

The shadow disappeared into the wind, as if it had never existed at all.

The night breeze is cool, blowing up the hair, with the slightly raised corners of the mouth. I didn't expect such a powerful figure in the capital.

There are stalkers near Yuezhai at any time, but the one just now is obviously different. Compared with those seemingly well-trained killers, he still prefers this person of unknown origin.

If only I had asked for myself.

***

Lu Zidan stepped into the door of Yuezhai for the first time. He is not interested in antique calligraphy and painting. The reason why he came is to hear that his future father-in-law Dong Shangshu especially likes to visit this store. He wants to be a son-in-law, so he naturally has to find out his father-in-law in advance.

Welcome! Welcome!" Just after taking a foot, there was a strange welcome sound in the empty store. Lu Zidan was so scared that his whole body was shocked. The curtain on the right side was lifted open, and the shopkeeper rushed over from the backyard.

"The parrot in the shop scared the champion. I'm really sorry." With a kind and rich smile, Wei Tanyi booed at the parrot, and the parrot immediately shut up.

Lu Zidan was a little embarrassed that he was scared by the parrot and reluctantly smiled: "Let Mr. Wei laugh."

"Mr. Wei was lucky to see the sachet given to Miss Dong by Lord Lu at Lord Dong's house last time. It was very amazing. I don't know where did Lord Lu get this fragrant sachet that people competed to imitate?" He didn't feel abrupt. Wei Tanyi asked directly.

"Sniffing incense is a family heirloom, but I haven't heard how precious it is. I didn't know it was a rare treasure until I heard Xiuci that day. I'm really ashamed." Lu Zidan has always been able to speak, not to mention that the purpose of this trip is to get close to this person first and indirectly please his father-in-law, so he did not doubt the intention of Wei Tanyi, and there were questions and answers.

The next development also fulfilled Lu Zidan's wish. Wei Tanyi repeatedly asked about smelling incense. As long as he answered one by one, it was not impossible to make friends with him by smelling incense.

"Lord Lu is nearly 30 years old this year. Does he have a wife in his hometown?" Just as he was raising the teacup to his mouth, he suddenly heard Wei Tanyi inadvertently ask. Lu Zidan almost choked and hurriedly laughed, "Mr. Wei is joking. If there is a wife in Lu's family, how dare he marry Dong Shangshu?"

Wei Tanyi did not dwell on this problem, so he put his heart back into his stomach.

He can't know. No one in the capital will know about that. Don't be careless. He would ask someone else. While pretending to be calm, Lu Zidan continued to respond to Wei Tanyi's inquiry. Maybe it's an illusion. The eyes cast on the opposite side seem to be able to see through his mind, asking about smelling the fragrance, but it sounds different.

After drinking a cup of tea, Lu Zidan fled. The parrot shouted "waste waste" vigorously in the corner, which was really appropriate.

"It's time to visit Dongfu again." Wei Tanyi held the teacup in his hand and said to himself.

The spring rain is over. Although the Tomb-sweeping Day has passed, it is still like an unbroken lotus root from time to time. At dusk, there was no half a figure on the street. Han Ru came out of the pub, looked at the dark sky, and was ready to step into the rain.

Suddenly, a figure flashed on the street. It seemed that a woman in white walked alone with an umbrella. When he looked closely, the figure disappeared again. Did you drink too much?" Han Ruxu was secretly surprised.

At this time, the disappeared figure appeared again. Han Ruxu was sure that it was not his own illusion, and he didn't care about the rain. He clenched the knife and followed.

The woman's figure suddenly appeared, bright and dark, like a ghost. Han Ruxu pretended to be in the same direction as her and kept a distance to follow her. The two walked on the drizzling street like this. The woman didn't seem to notice that she was being followed and walked slowly. Even if she disappeared occasionally, she would appear in front of her again.

"Did you see a ghost in broad daylight?" Han Ruqi frowned and couldn't help recalling the two red lights he saw in Yuezhai.

The woman turned around the corner and stopped. Han Ruxu couldn't see what was in front of her, so she only guessed in her heart. After a while, the woman walked in that direction. Han Ruqi walked lightly to the place where she had just paused and secretly poked out a head.

On the bridge at the other end of the road, another man in white also held an umbrella independently. Because the eaves of the umbrella were too low to see his appearance, I could only guess that it was a man. The woman in white floated up the bridge, passed behind the man, and suddenly stretched out her hand from her sleeve to grab the back of the man's neck.

" Stop it!" Han Ruqi rushed up without saying a word.

The woman in white seemed to be shocked by him and suddenly pulled back her hand and disappeared in the rain. This time, she did not appear again.

The person on the bridge raised the oil-paper umbrella slightly and showed a faint smile: "Who did Lord Han tell to stop?"

"Are you an idiot? If I hadn't noticed that something was wrong with the woman, you would have broken your neck to see the king of evil!" Han Ru said angrily.

"Woman?" Wei Tanyi turned his head blankly, "Where is it?"

"Escape! It turned into rainwater and flowed into the river!"

Looking at Han Ruxu's angry look, Wei Tanyi seemed to be in a good mood and raised his umbrella: "Lord Han is really worthy of being a parent official. The people in the capital still rely on you. Don't catch a cold."

Han Ruqi sneered, "How can martial arts practitioners get sick if they get caught in a little rain? You'd better keep it for yourself."

"Then Lord Han has the right to keep this umbrella for me for the time being. I have to do something now. It's very inconvenient to carry an oil-paper umbrella."

He took the umbrella inexplicably. Before he realized that Wei Tanyi had already left a hundred steps away, Han Ruqi looked at the umbrella in his hand and thought it was better than getting wet, so he didn't catch up.

On the way home, the woman in white appeared several times, but she always looked at him from afar and did not approach. Han Ruxu suddenly guessed that this umbrella should not be able to ward off evil spirits, right?

***

In a corner of Dongfu, a gray shadow stood under the acacia tree, almost integrated with the wall behind it.

"Old man, it will be cold if you get caught in the rain like this." Wei Tanyi came out of the corner of the corridor and said carelessly.

The shadow laughed and his voice was a little astringent: "The old body still cares about those."

Wei Tanyi stretched out his hand and went into the rain: "Old man, after so many years, why can't you let it go?"

"I didn't care about what happened in those years. The heart of a man in the world has been seen through for more than a thousand years. He only sighed that those ignorant girls, and said that their dreams came true at the window. It's sad." After the shadow finished speaking, he coughed gently.

Looking through the rain curtain, you can see Miss Dong's boudoir. In another half a year, she will marry a woman, and the person who is lucky enough to marry her is the champion this year. In half a year, with his own talent and the power of his father-in-law Dong Shangshu, it is enough for him to make a difference.

"What do you want me to do?"

"I have only one wish, that is..."

***

The man woke up in the middle of the night without any reason and no sleepiness. Looking at his sleeping wife beside him, he gently turned over and got out of bed, came to the cradle, and stared at his sleeping daughter.

The pink face, chubby hands, and the appearance of holding fingers are particularly loving. The man couldn't help smiling and remembered that he had looked at a child like this five years ago. It was his son. He was born restless. It is common to cry in the middle of the night. His wife always got up and hugged him and coaxed him, and repeated many times a night.

He turned his head, and the ** woman slept deeply. Even if her daughter woke up and cried, she may not wake her up. The man has a little regret in his heart. It is also a mother's experience to get up in the middle of the night to coax the child, which she can't experience.

Five years ago, as soon as his son was weaned, he left his hometown and came to the Central Plains to do a spice business. He also met robbers. He almost lost his life several times, and finally moved to the capital. The spices he made were very unique. After making a lot of money in the capital, he wanted to go home, but he unexpectedly received the imperial edict - the emperor of the Central Plains appreciated his craftsmanship very much and ordered him to enter the palace to be a spice chef.

The man knew that the emperor's order was difficult to violate, so he had to stay obediently, but he missed his wife and children in his hometown all the time.

Year after year, the emperor of the Central Plains still refused to let him go, and the emperor's grandson and nobles were trying to marry his daughter to him. At first, he could also stick to his love for his wife and refuse one by one, but later, the hope of returning to his hometown became more and less, and he began to consider whether to stay in the Central Plains.
