Chapter 24 Marriage

"Several ginkgo trees planted in the garden also began to fall leaves one after another. When you open the window of the study, you can see a scene of falling leaves flying. Remember that a well under the ginkgo tree was dug five years ago. Every summer, everyone will always put the fruit in the basket and hang it in the well, from Put it in the morning and take it out at noon. After washing and cutting it, it tastes really sweet in the fruit plate.

Through the ginkgo trees, you will see some gardenia with bright white flowers. From afar, it looks very beautiful. When you get closer, you will see that there will be small insects crawling everywhere on the bright white petals. You always say that the flower tastes fragrant but there are too many bugs. I picked one for you today, just this one. It's the best. I washed it without worms. There are worms in some other corners or start to turn slightly yellow. It smells very good.

"Bear by the way, I secretly buried your child under a small poplar tree in the back mountain. I think it will be about half a meter high when I go there next year. Don't worry."

"Have you received the paper money I burned for you? There are also two small paper people. I used to serve you. Now I don't know if they serve you well. If you are not used to it, I will change two more for you. And don't forget to wear more clothes when you get there. I heard that the cold there is very cold there.

"Your clothes..."

"Miss, let's go. I'm listening to you." In front of them was a large bush covering them, and Qiao Yue showed her eyes and whispered.

Looking through the bushes, there was a lonely grave. Qiu Ju knelt down next to the grave and gave birth to a brazier. Every word she said, she would hold a handful of paper things from the sack on one side to keep the small fire unquenched. At first glance, the soil under the fire basin was just renovated, and the tan was not far away from the earthy yellow soil. Same.

Look at this grave again. The tombstone is engraved with these words, the tomb of his beloved daughter Nie Mei, and his father Nie Yanli.

The red silk has been squatting for a long time. When she stood up, she almost flashed her waist. Qiaoyue quickly came to help her, patted the leaves on her body, and said, "Isn't this what you proposed to see? Now you are so timid."

Qiaoyue cat held the red silk on his waist and smiled, "I'm not curious. Who knows that she came to such a damn place." Seeing that she was getting farther and farther away from the lonely grave, Qiaoyue was also much more at ease and patted her chest. "For good, I haven't been found. Qiu Ju is really a good conscience. In the past, Nie Mei treated her like that. When she died, she couldn't forget her. She was really evil."

Nie Mei's grave is in the remote countryside. It's also a half-day's journey from Jincheng. They used to take a carriage to buy things. They happened to meet the autumn chrysanthemum that had just finished buying through the sacrificial store. Qiaoyue was very curious. She quickly pulled the red silk to see what she was going to do. The red silk saw that she was from this kind of store. When he came out, he said to Qiaoyue that he was going to worship the old man. Qiaoyue said in disbelief that she didn't have any old people. At that time, both of us were abducted by human traffickers. Even if there were, we didn't know which ravine we were in.

"Miss, do you think you are always having nightmares these days because Qiu Ju is playing tricks?"

"What does this have to do with her?" It's just a dream. It's not what others can control.

Qiao Yue puffed her cheeks and sighed, "Miss, haven't you heard of a strange skill called attracting souls?"

"I haven't heard of it." It's not that she hasn't heard of it, but she just thinks these are unrealistic.

"Have you never heard of it?" He said with a surprised face, "Miss, if you are willing to spend some time reading idle books and put it elsewhere, you won't be so ignorant." Qiaoyue is more and more bold these days. She doesn't know what's going on. She can't control what she says, but she regrets it very much afterwards. Just like now, he immediately withered like a soft persimmon. "Miss, I'm wrong. I've eaten too much these days. I can't control myself. Don't be angry."

One by one, one by one

In the eighth day of the first lunar month, people came to the palace.

Nie Yan's family knelt on the ground to accept the order. What they read was Li Sihai, the popular person next to Emperor Gao. He was about the same age as Nie Yan, but he was very short and his neck was also short. He looked like a teenager. He stood up straight and was not as tall as the red silk, but he was also short and strong. Dicai likes him very much. Although the red silk is puzzled, he thinks that everyone has his own preferences, just like Tang Xiao doesn't like women.

Eunuch Li held his unique shrill voice and read it. After that, he said, "Congratulations to the prince. Hurry up and prepare for the wedding."

Nie Yan stood up straight, five heads higher than Grandpa Li and said, "Thank you, Grandpa." After thanking him, he said to Shen, "Madam, go and get Yu Ruyi from the house."

Eunuch Li took over Yu Ruyi, squinted back and forth several times, and refused, "Oh, I can't stand such a valuable thing."

Shen also said with a smile, "There is no better little gift now. If you feel shabby, you will add it in the future."

Then Grandpa Li quickly waved his hand and said, "How can it be? Such a valuable thing. Since my wife has said so, the miscellaneous family will accept it?"

"Ky it."

"Okay, thank you very much."

At night, when the red silk was about to rest, the door of the house knocked. When I opened the door, it was Nie Qiang.

Xiang'er held Nie Qiang's body and swayed left and right into the room.

Nie Qiang's body has gained a lot of weight, but the clothes that used to fit have now become strangled. Nie Qiang said, "I don't want to marry people with red silk. I'd rather hide at home all my life."

To be honest, when Qiao Yue came to tell herself that there was a eunuch in the palace to announce the decree, she was also afraid. She thought that if Emperor Mo agreed to the prince's proposal, the imperial edict today would not come to the concubine, and when Duke Li read the marriage of Nie Qiang and Tang Ruomu, she was indeed relieved.

Nie Qiang lay on the table, but she didn't say anything while throwing food inside. After saying three words, she ate a large plate of peanuts and a few more, and then said, "I don't know the second prince. Besides, I'm still so fat that he won't like me."

The red silk poured a glass of water and handed it to her, saying, "Then do you know why Emperor Gao suddenly gave her marriage?"

Nie Qiang put down the peanut shell in her hand and looked up at her. "I know, I've heard about it from my mother and Su Hong. They seem to say that because the second prince is a person who can be entrusted, what will happen in the future? ... By the way, and my father will follow him in the future." Although Nie Qiang didn't understand and couldn't explain it clearly, she could still hear three colors from her words. Since her mother had long known that Nie Qiang was going to marry Tang Ruomu, naturally the matter of marriage was also said by her father and Emperor Mao. Even if it was not, it was proposed by Tang Ruomu. She thought that if Tang Ruomu's nature was willing to marry Nie Qiang. That must be a purpose, but she couldn't figure out what benefits this marriage could give him. Or it's not a benefit, but put Nie Qiang around like a hostage in case Nie Yan changes his mind in the future, and he still has such a bargaining chip.
