"Sister-in-law Qingrui, come on, let's have another drink."
"Sister Rui'er, today is a happy day, let's drink together."
"And me, and me."
At this moment, Ren Qingrui was in an excited mood. Faced with the drinks offered by her sisters and Liu Xuanjing, she naturally accepted all comers.
"Yeah, let's drink together."
Mr. Liu gnawed on the sheep's hooves in his hand, glanced at the people who were drinking, and said vaguely: "Yun'er, Yan'er, Sister Ya, just drink until you're done. Don't get drunk."
Liu Xuan filled the pot with a glass of wine and waved her hand casually: "Oh, I got it, I got it, stinky brother, just chew your sheep's hooves."
…
Time turned and it was already more than ten days later.
Today is March 15th.
Tomorrow is the auspicious day for Mr. Liu's good daughter Liu Yiyi to get married.
Inner courtyard garden, Qingfeng Pavilion.
Young Master Liu looked at Qi Yun, Qing Lian, the third princess, Murong Shan and a group of other sisters gathered around their good daughter Liu Yiyi. You were explaining something to me in a soft voice.
The sourness in my heart comes one after another.
One wave has not subsided, and another wave has arisen.
When he thought that his good daughter would get married tomorrow, Young Master Liu's heart was filled with melancholy.
In the past, I always joked with my group of little cotton-padded jackets, asking their sisters to get married one by one as early as possible, so as to save myself trouble.
Years passed in a flash, and each of my many little cotton-padded jackets had grown up.
Today, the jokes I made back then have finally come true.
Liu Yiyi, the oldest child under her knee, is really going to get married.
Today is already fifteen.
This also means that after tonight, my good daughter Liu Yiyi will leave the court to get married and become a member of another family.
If you leave the court and get married, your little cotton-padded jacket will leave the court and get married!
This is really a bad feeling in my heart.
Liu Mingzhi looked melancholy at his good daughter Liu Yiyi, who was sitting among Qi Yun, Qinglian and the other sisters, nodding at Zhenshou frequently, and picked up a piece of pastry from the plate on the stone table with trembling arms.
However, Young Master Liu only took a small bite of the pastry and casually threw the remaining half of the pastry into the tray.
These pastries, which usually tasted delicious, now tasted completely tasteless.
Immediately, Young Master Liu took up another pot and filled a cup of peach blossom wine brewed by Qi Ya himself, then picked up the wine glass and put it directly into his mouth.
Likewise, he just took a small sip of the wine, then frowned and put the glass back to its place.
The wine that used to be refreshing and fragrant now tastes tasteless.
Now, it can be said that whatever I eat has no taste, and whatever I drink has no taste.
"well."
Young Master Liu sighed silently in his heart and turned to greet Qi Yun. The three princesses and the other sisters picked up the tobacco pouch that they had placed on the stone table and walked slowly towards the outside of the pavilion.
At this moment, I clearly have thousands of words in my heart, but I don’t know how to express them.
That's all, that's all.
Maybe only the dry tobacco bag in his hand can gradually calm down his mood.
Mr. Liu took out the fire stick from his sleeve and lit the tobacco. After taking a long puff of dry tobacco, he raised his head and stared at the sun that was gradually turning westward in the sky. He wandered in the garden with a lonely figure.
In the Qingfeng Pavilion.
Yun Xiaoxi, who was a little thirsty, was about to take some tea to moisten his throat when he looked at the empty rocking chair in front of him and was stunned for a moment.
"Huh? Husband, where is your husband?"
Yun Xiaoxi's surprised voice attracted everyone's attention.
Qi Ya, Ling Weier, Xue Bizhu and the other sisters looked stunned when they saw that their husband had disappeared from the rocking chair.
"Hey? Where is your husband?"
"Wasn't your husband still lying on the rocking chair just now? Why did he disappear in the blink of an eye?"
"Feifei, Yaoyao, Yue'er, Lingyun, where is your father?"
Liu Feifei, the cute sisters and others looked at each other and shook their heads in unison.
"I don't know, I don't know."
"Mom, just now I was only listening to you, mom, talking to sister Yiyi, and I didn't even pay attention to what dad was doing."
"Mother, aunts, I was just listening to what you were talking about, and I didn't even notice when dad left."
The queen looked at Liu Yiyi, then stood on tiptoes and looked around the pavilion.
Unfortunately, she searched four or five times in a row, but could not find Mr. Liu.
The Queen withdrew her gaze, looked at the good sisters in front of her, and let out a soft breath with her mouth slightly open.
“Sisters, there’s no need to look for it.
If nothing goes wrong, the heartless person will most likely hide in a corner somewhere and suffer alone. "
As soon as the queen said this, Qi Yun, Qi Ya, the third princess, Huyan Yunyao and all the other beauties reacted instantly.
The sisters vaguely understood why their husband left without saying a word.
Qinglian raised her hand and patted her good daughter Liu Yiyi on the shoulder, then turned her head and looked around a few times.
"Sisters, you can continue chatting with Yiyi while I go to the garden to look for my husband first.
"Hey, go ahead."
"Yeah, sister Lian'er, you go find your husband first."
"Sister Lian'er, after you find your husband, don't forget to give him some good advice."
"Yeah, yeah, I know."
Qinglian gently waved her jade hand and walked out of the pavilion holding up her skirt.
After Qinglian walked out of the pavilion, she raised her right hand and patted her left arm gently twice.
"Little dragon."
At Qinglian's shout, Xiaolong's colorful body came out of her cuffs.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss."
Xiaolong breathed out the snake letter softly, his body wrapped around Qinglian's arm and swaying back and forth.
Qinglian held up the hem of her skirt and squatted down, gently placing her jade hands on the ground.
"Xiaolong, lead the way to find your husband."
Xiaolong bowed his body and landed on the ground, spitting out snake letters and shaking non-stop.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss."
Immediately, Xiaolong quickly twisted his body a few times and swam directly in the direction where Mr. Liu disappeared.
When Qinglian saw this, she immediately stood up and followed him with a smile.
It took about half a cup of tea.
Under the guidance of Xiaolong, Qinglian finally saw the figure of Young Master Liu on a bench by the garden lake.
At this time, he was lying sideways on the bench, staring blankly at the clouds in the clear blue sky, and smashed the dry cigarette in his hand one by one.
Qinglian looked at her husband's lonely voice and sighed softly in her heart. She pulled off her sleeves and gestured to the little dragon on the ground.
"Good little dragon, come back."
Xiaolong twisted his body a few times, bowed his body and flew directly into Qinglian's cuffs.
Qinglian casually adjusted her cuffs, gently raised her lotus feet, and walked lightly towards her husband who was lying on the bench in front of her.
"Husband."
Young Master Liu, who was wandering in the sky, heard the beauty's voice, his body suddenly trembled, and he subconsciously raised his head and looked towards Qinglian.
"Lian'er...Lian'er, why are you here?"
"Of course I came to see you."
Liu Mingzhi stood up and sat up, looking at Qinglian with a puzzled expression.
"A husband is here? What's wrong? Is there something going on?"
Qinglian flicked the ribbon on her slender arms, gently lifted her skirt, and sat down next to Young Master Liu in an elegant manner.
"Nothing, I just want to chat with you."
"I see, my husband thought you had something to discuss with me?"
Qinglian turned sideways slightly, took off the wine bag from her waist with a smile, and handed it directly to Young Master Liu.
"Husband, would you like some drink?"
Young Master Liu lowered his head and glanced at the wine bag handed over by the beauty, waved his hand casually, and put the dry tobacco bag into his mouth.
"No more, no more, my husband has no appetite."
Qinglian frowned slightly, first reached out and snatched the cigarette rod from Young Master Liu's hand, and then stuffed the wine bag into his hand.
"Compared to dark soy sauce, it's better to drink some peach blossom brewed by Sister Ya."
As Qinglian spoke, she bent down her slender waist and tapped out the unburned tobacco in the pot from the soles of her embroidered shoes.
"Good husband, drink, drink, I will drink with you."
Liu Mingzhi glanced at the tobacco bag hidden behind Qinglian, and nodded with a wry smile.
"Okay, isn't it okay to drink for your husband?"
"Drink, I will watch you drink."
Young Master Liu tugged on the clothes on his chest, raised his neck slightly, raised the wine bag in his hand and poured it into his mouth.
After drinking several sips of fine wine, Young Master Liu put down the wine bag.
It's a pity that this wine still doesn't taste good when you drink it.
Qinglian took the wine bag from Young Master Liu's hand and took a few sips of the wine with her lips slightly opened.
Immediately, the beauty wiped the wine from the corners of her lips with her sleeves, and looked at Young Master Liu sadly.
"Husband, are you reluctant to part with me?"
Hearing Qinglian's question, Liu Dashao trembled, his brows furrowed and he fell silent.
After a long time.
Young Master Liu gently shook off the jade fan in his hand and lay down sideways on the beauty's round thighs.
"Yes, I can't bear to leave.
A good daughter who has been surrounded by dads like this and dads like that since she was a child.
Suddenly she was about to get married and become a member of someone else's family. How could she be willing to let it go?
Lian'er, are you willing to give up? "
Qinglian took a sip of her drink and gazed at the clouds of different shapes in the sky, her eyes instantly becoming sour.
She gently wiped the corners of her eyes and said with a choked sob: "Husband, Yiyi is the meat that fell from my body. If you are reluctant to part with it, how can I be willing to part with it?
However, no matter how reluctant I am to let go of my concubine, what can I do?
Men should marry when they are young, and women should marry when they are young. This has been the case since ancient times.
This girl Yiyi is now at this age, and it's time for her to get married.
We, as parents, can't let her stay away from marriage for the rest of her life just because we can't bear it, right?
If this is the case, then wouldn't we be too selfish? "
Young Master Liu reached out and pulled the ribbon around Beauty Liu's waist, wrapping it tightly around his fingertips.
"Yes, Lian'er, what you said is right, even if you are reluctant to let go, what can you do?
After all, this girl Yiyi is already this age now.
As you said, we can't let her stay away from marriage for the rest of her life because of our own reasons.
It is precisely because of this reason that I secretly hide here alone.
As a husband, I don’t want her to see me like I am now.
My husband hopes that she can be like other girls and get married happily. "
"Husband, Yiyi is not stupid, do you think she can't guess your mood?
As I expected, from the moment you quietly left Qingfeng Pavilion, Yiyi, the child, already knew the mood of your good father. "
Liu Mingzhi turned his head and looked in the direction of Qingfeng Pavilion. He picked up the wine bag in the beauty's hand and brought it directly to his lips. He opened his mouth and drank heavily.
After taking a few gulps of wine, Mr. Liu gently let out two wine burps.
"Hiccup! Hiccup!"
"Just guess it, as long as you can't see it, it'll be fine."
"Hehehe, I think so too, concubine."
"Husband."
"Lian'er, what's wrong?"
"Now, it's just that Yiyi, a girl, got married, and you are already like this.
In the future, sisters like Feifei, Yaoyao, Yue'er, Lingyun, and Yunxin will also get married.
Tell me, what should you do? "
Hearing the beauty's inquiry, Mr. Liu's face suddenly stiffened, and he could only feel the stinging pain in his heart.
Young Master Liu stretched out his hand to cover his chest, his mouth twitched, and he looked up at the beauty helplessly.
"Lian'er, are you here to drink with your husband to relieve your boredom? Or are you here to stimulate my husband?
Because this girl Yiyi is going to get married tomorrow, the husband is already feeling uncomfortable.
Now, as soon as you say these words, my husband feels even more uncomfortable. "
Seeing her husband's depressed expression, Qinglian scratched her brow.
"Husband, I don't want to talk about these topics.
However, the facts are the facts and cannot be changed at all.
Since you can't change it, you can only forcefully accept it.
Husband, some things must be faced when they should be faced.
Can you escape for a while? Can you escape for a lifetime? "
Liu Mingzhi and the beauty looked at each other, frowning in silence for a long time, and sighed with a depressed expression.
"Hey, good Lian'er, let's take it one step at a time, and take it one step at a time."
"Okay, this will be the case from now on."
"Lian'er, tonight's dinner is the last meal Yiyi will eat with us at home.
Therefore, you sisters have to make good arrangements for tonight's meal.
No matter what, you must not wrong this girl Yiyi. "
Qinglian looked down at Young Master Liu and nodded vigorously.
"Yes, yes, husband, you can rest assured.
We sisters have already discussed it early in the morning and have made arrangements.
Before this girl Yiyi gets married, she will never be wronged by eating this last meal at home. "
Young Master Liu took a sip of the wine, nodded gently, and put the wine bag into the beauty's hand.
“That’s good, that’s good.
Good Lian'er, come and have a drink. "
Qinglian nodded slightly, raised the wine bag and took a few sips of the wine.
Quietly.
Liu Dashao and his wife seemed to have a clear understanding of each other, and they raised their heads to look at the sun in the sky.
seem! seem!
Everyone seems to be looking forward to the sun setting later today.
