Aunt Zhang was very efficient in doing things, and soon the two families had discussed and decided on a date for the engagement banquet. Representatives from most families in the village came to attend. The small courtyard was full of people, and children were running around the table. Yes, there were people sitting outside the gate. Song Qing was the only child in the family. His parents had passed away a long time ago. His parents were very popular during their lifetime, so basically everyone in the village who could come came to participate. It was very lively. On the day of the engagement banquet, Cui'er wore a red dress and looked down at Song Qing slightly. Seeing that Song Qing was also looking at her, she blushed and lowered her head. This engagement banquet was their first real meeting. The parents' orders and the matchmaker's words are just like this.
That day Xiyan was left in the house in the cold, no one greeted her or paid attention to her. She stuck her little head out the window, looking at the laughter and laughter outside, and watching Song Qing's face beaming with joy as she welcomed the new couple. At that moment, she felt a little... Unable to stay any longer, it pushed open the window with all its strength, rushed out and put it on the wall outside the window. It stared at Tweety and jumped onto her body. Before Tweety could react, it had already hit her hard. Di bit Tweety's hand, and Tweety screamed in shock, fainting to the ground. Tweety's parents quickly ran to support Tweety and called her name, trying to wake her up.
Song Qing threw away his wine glass when he heard the noise and ran to check. He also called Cui'er's name, making the lively banquet even more lively.
During the banquet, the bride-to-be was suddenly bitten and fainted. Cui Er's parents took Cui Er home. His marriage was most likely ruined by Xi Yan.
Xiyan knew that she had done something wrong and stayed under the table against the wall. Song Qing did not yell at Xiyan, but just sat silently on the stool in a daze. The silence made Xiyan feel that time was passing by even more. It was like a knife, cutting at it one after another. It slowly climbed out of the table, climbed up the stool along the table legs, and slowly crawled towards him. It looked at Song Qing pitifully, as if I knew it was wrong. When it saw Song Qing There was no response, so she rubbed him on the arm again.
"I couldn't take care of you today, but you can't bite anyone! You can't bite anyone anymore in the future, do you understand?" Song Qing said.
Xiyan raised her head and blinked, her tail drooped and she listened obediently, like a child who had done something wrong and was being educated by his parents. It grabbed Song Qing's sleeves with its two small hands and leaned closer and rubbed it again, as if it was responding to him by saying 'I know'.
The next day, Aunt Zhang came to Song Qing's house and returned the cow. As expected, his marriage was ruined.
"Song Qing, there's nothing I can do for you. I can't help you even if I want to. Hey~, Cui'er's father said that he wants an explanation for the squirrel you raised. After all, the squirrel you raised bit someone. Girl, you’re not awake yet.”
"Auntie, I've thrown away that squirrel and can't find it," Song Qing said.
"Song Qing, don't be so stubborn. Your pet bit the girl, and she wants to take it out on her. Maybe there will be room for change after the anger subsides. After all, it's just a beast, don't be too stubborn!" Zhang The aunt advised.
"Auntie, I really let you go!" Song Qing insisted.
"That's okay! I'm going to return the letter!" Aunt Zhang said helplessly.
Because Song Qing knew that if he gave it to them, Xi Yan would only die. Although it was Xi Yan's fault, he would not let him die. When he knew that Aunt Zhang was coming, he hid Xi Yan early. At night, Song Qing decided to send Xiyan away and send her back to Huaishan. Maybe she should have gone back.
Xiyan was still sleeping in a daze, so she was put into the backpack by Song Qing. Xiyan stretched out and rubbed her eyes with her little hands. When she opened her eyes, she saw that her sleeping position had changed. She suddenly became nervous and felt sleepy. Suddenly energetic.
When they arrived, Song Qing took Xi Yan out and said, "You shouldn't follow me, just leave!"
Xi Yan seemed to understand, and nervously ran over to Song Qing, grabbing Song Qing's clothes tightly.
Song Qing pulled Xi Yan down hard and said without mercy, "Go back to Huaishan! You ruined my marriage and I can't keep you here anymore!"
Xiyan's dark eyes shone brightly under the moonlight. She still wanted to try, but no matter how much she pretended to be innocent and pitiful, or acted coquettishly or cutely, it didn't help. She was pulled down again and again by Song Qing, and finally Song Qing provoked her. He became impatient and pulled Xi Yan off his body and threw her to the ground. He turned and walked away without any hesitation.
He thought that he always took care of Xiyan. What if Cui'er's parents or others looked at her that day and wanted her life? What if he neglected to protect it? After much deliberation, it was better to let him go back to Huaishan, so he became cruel.
The situation was much more serious than Song Qing thought. Cui'er didn't wake up for many days. The doctor couldn't find out the cause of the disease. Later, they invited a wizard, saying that she was haunted by ghosts. Song Qing originally wanted to visit Cui'er, but she couldn't go there just now. In an accident, he was kicked out. It won't matter until Cui Er wakes up.
The days have returned to the past, but they are not like before. The sun rises and sets and the sun goes down, but the old scalper is still following him. That day when he returned home, Xiaohuali came back, waiting for him at the gate of the yard, covered with injuries. Song Qing saw Xi Yan at a glance, and quickly held Xi Yan in the palm of his hand, without even bothering to worry about the bolt.
"Why are you covered in wounds! Did someone hurt you?" Song Qing said with distressed eyes.
Xiyan looked at Song Qing tiredly, huddled up and slowly closed her eyes. This frightened Song Qing. He regretted sending Xiyan away. If he had not sent Xiyan back to Huaishan Mountain at that time , it might not be so seriously injured. This little guy won't...
Song Qing cleaned Xiyan's wound and bandaged it. After waiting for a long time, Xiyan finally woke up, "You're finally awake, that's great!" Xiyan got up with difficulty and limped onto Song Qing's arm. Next to it, it tugged at his sleeves with its tiny claws, showing a pitiful expression, as if begging him not to drive it away.
Song Qing picked up Xi Yan, stroked its plush head and said, "Don't worry! I won't chase you away this time!"
Xiyan seemed to understand. She raised her tail happily and rubbed her head against Song Qing's fingers.
After the marriage was revealed, Song Qing's reputation became worse and worse, and the news spread became more and more outrageous. No one mentioned the marriage for him in the future.
Although Song Qing was not married in his lifetime, he lived a comfortable life. Song Qing thought clearly that if half of them endured hardships like him, it would be better for him to live in poverty alone.
The white-haired Song Qing slowly walked to the bed and sat down. He looked at the little flower chestnut Xiyan beside him, touched its head, smiled and lay down on the bed and never woke up from hibernation, letting the little flower chestnut jump on him. I jumped around and pulled at his clothes, but he still didn't move. Xiyan, who was full of tears, finally couldn't help crying.
Xiyan wiped her tears with her little paws, and she was so calm that she transformed into a shape. Her face was like a chipmunk's hair, her head was like a mouse, but her body was human. She looked half-human and half-demon. She didn't really look like her until Song Qing's death. We met honestly.
