But for Xiao An, it was even more painful.
He kept practicing, not daring to let himself stop, because as soon as he stopped, he would be thinking about the marriage.
Although he had a feeling in his heart that He Lian'er should also have feelings for him, but the two of them had never broken the window paper, he still couldn't help but feel a little uneasy and even have random thoughts.
Seeing the group of brothers and subordinates headed by Sanbao and the others around them, they were all secretly surprised. They were surprised that Xiao An was acting abnormally.
Sanbao couldn't help but inquire after being encouraged by others. As a result, he stirred up a hornet's nest and was punished by Xiaoan for an hour of training with all the team members.
And he himself was not idle either. It was very cold in spring. He took off his shirt and led everyone to practice there, shirtless. His body was so good that it made people spurt blood, and he felt so powerful all over his body!
After enduring it, I finally made it to the twentieth day of the first lunar month, the day when the two families had made an appointment to go to the temple on the mountain in the suburbs.
Xiao An rushed to Tianxiang Tower early in the morning.
Today's schedule is that everyone will have breakfast at the restaurant. After breakfast, Xiao An will go to the He family to pick up the three members of the He family.
Because there was a carriage, Father He could also go and let Xiao An carry him up when he got to the foot of the mountain.
The temple is not very far, just a way up from the foot of the mountain. The road is also repaired. Once you enter the temple, it will be flat. Then Father He can walk slowly with a cane. There will be someone next to him to help him. Can.
The main purpose is to take He's father out to relax and change his mood since he hasn't been out of the house for a long time.
However, before Xiao An could go out, the He family came.
"Sister, why are you here alone? Where are the eldest brother and Lian'er?"
Mrs. Sun held Mother He's hand in surprise and asked.
Xiao An stood next to Sun, and when he saw He's mother coming alone, his heart sank inexplicably.
Could it be that things were not what I thought, and Lian'er didn't want to marry me, so she was embarrassed to come over, so she sent her mother over to reject the matter?
Otherwise, how do you explain why you suddenly changed your mind when you originally promised that you would go?
Mother He also smiled and said to Sun and Yang Huazhong: "Originally, her father was coming too. A temporary guest came to the house. He was an old friend from when we were doing business in the county."
"Her father couldn't leave, so he stayed to entertain the guests. Let Lian'er cook, and I'll burn incense with you."
Mother He carried a basket in her arm, and there were indeed many things for burning incense prepared in the basket.
"Oh, that's it, okay then."
When guests come, it is human nature to leave people behind to entertain them. Sun and Yang Huazhong had nothing to say, so they arranged for He's mother to get in the car, and everyone set off to burn incense in the mountains.
Mother He's eyes flickered slightly.
Mrs. Sun understood and said to Yang Huazhong: "You go and load the things in the car first, and I'll go to the house and wash my face. Sister, shall we go together?"
Mother He nodded happily, and the two women left hand in hand.
Xiao An stood there, his head filled with questions, and his heart became increasingly weak.
Why? Because He's mother didn't look at him since she called in, this made Xiao An a little depressed, so much so that Yang Huazhong called him several times to help him load things, but he didn't even hear him.
Things were quickly installed. Daan and Xiaohua took Feng'er and got into the carriage in front. Xiaoan rode beside the empty carriage at the back, waiting for Sun and Mother He to come out.
After a while, the two women came out arm in arm, talking and laughing as if they were sisters.
But Xiao An's brows were still slightly twisted.
He knows how his mother is, and even if someone rejects the marriage, he won't be angry. He should still treat others well, and there is no such thing as enmity.
As for the enthusiasm and smile on He's mother's face, Xiao An simply concluded that the He family was a little embarrassed for rejecting the marriage, so she made up for it with extra courtesy and enthusiasm.
Alas, he turned his head and looked at the sky.
Even if Lian'er really doesn't want to marry him, he will still take care of the He family, because the relationship between him and Qingsong is there, and they really don't need to be so enthusiastic because of guilt, but it makes him a little overwhelmed. The next time I see Lian'er, I don't know what to say. It's embarrassing.
"Xiao An."
The leg hanging on the side of the horse's belly was suddenly patted lightly.
Xiao An turned his head and found that the person patting his leg was He's mother, and Sun had already got on the carriage, and now He's mother was standing next to him, looking up at him.
"Auntie."
Xiao An was shocked, quickly got off her horse and stood respectfully in front of He's mother.
Mother He looked at Xiao An from head to toe and nodded secretly.
"Lian'er originally wanted to go, and she has changed her clothes." Mother He said.
"Ah? Oh...it's okay, it's okay." Xiao An forced a smile.
Mother He also smiled, took out something and stuffed it into Xiao An's hand.
"Take it, this is what Lian'er asked me to bring to you."
"Ah? What is this?" Xiao An looked at the flower purse in his hand and asked.
What does a big man like him do with such a fancy wallet? Can it hold swords or bows and arrows? Not as practical as an arrow pot.
Mother He just laughed and did not explain in detail to Xiao An what the flower purse was for. She also turned around and got on the carriage, not knowing what she said to Mrs. Sun, and Mrs. Sun's laughter came from the carriage.
Yang Huazhong came over.
Seeing Xiao An standing there in a daze with the flowery purse, Yang Huazhong knocked his head with hatred and said in a low voice: "You silly boy, how did you get into Lian'er's eyes with such stupidity?" Flower purses are tokens of love, do you understand now?"
A token of love?
Xiao An's face turned red to the root of his neck. His big hands used to holding swords and sticks tightly squeezed the flower bag, and he grinned to the side in excitement.
Hua Hebao: For your love, I will be crushed to pieces, bastard!
Xiao An got on his horse coolly and neatly, bringing with him a strong wind of joy.
On the way up the mountain, Xiao An was in high spirits and in a happy mood.
In his entire life, he felt like he had felt this excited only twice.
The first time was when he finally convinced the whole family to follow his brother-in-law to the south to fight on the battlefield.
There is another time right now.
He even held the reins with one hand, and secretly put his other hand into his chest to touch the flower bag. It was soft, soft, and had a faint fragrance, just like the girl's hands, which were soft and smooth. …
"Look at that silly boy in my family, he is giggling all the time."
In the carriage, Ms. Sun quietly lifted a corner of the curtain, glanced at Xiao An who was riding outside, and spoke in a low voice to Mother He beside her.
Mother He also saw it, covering her mouth with a handkerchief, with a smile in her eyes.
The transformation from Xiao An's previous despair to his current high spirits was none other than Lian'er's flowery purse.
It can be seen that the girl still plays a very important role in Xiao An's heart, and He's mother secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
A marriage, parents-in-law, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, brother-in-law, etc. are important, but they are not the key.
The most important thing is your man.
If a man loves you and protects you, you will be strong in your husband's family, and others will give you face.
If a man doesn't take you seriously, you will only be able to cause trouble yourself.
Mother He was really relieved that Lian'er married Xiao An.
