He knew that Liu Yanyu was his best friend, and he could never do anything that would make him feel sorry for him. Even if he liked this girl Bai Lan in his heart, he should always rein in the situation and disappear.
However, when he looked at Bai Lan holding a red lantern and wearing a white cloak, standing under the ginkgo tree waiting for him, he felt an indescribable bitterness in his heart. The moonlight stretched her shadow so long. , he couldn't help but want to come out to meet him several times.
But Zhuang Yu is a businessman and has always been the most sensible. He knows what if they meet? This woman will marry her best brother in the future. No matter how much he loves her, it will still be fruitless, so he can only crush the bud of love and leave.
Soon winter will turn to spring, and Liu Yanyu will go to marry his bride.
As Liu Yanyu's best brother, Zhuang Yu naturally had to accompany him.
Along the way, Liu Yanyu was inevitably a little uneasy. He had never seen Bai Lan, but he knew that he had to marry this girl in his life. He was also worried about whether he would like her.
The night before arriving at Bai's house, he felt more and more uneasy and restless.
So he went to his best brother Zhuang Yu to have a drink. Zhuang Yu looked at Liu Yanyu's anxious look and comforted him: "Brother Liu, don't worry, Miss Bai must be a one-of-a-kind beauty!"
Liu Yanyu giggled expectantly and said, "I hope so! I think so too. Brother Zhuang, thank you for accompanying me to welcome the bride!"
Zhuang Yu smiled inwardly and raised his head to drink, thinking that time had passed and she must have forgotten me, a person we only met once.
The candlelight is slightly yellow, and the person is drunk.
Looking at Liu Yanyu lying drunk on the table, he stood up and put on the red wedding dress for him. His eyes were full of envy and he whispered: "Yanyu, you fool, you actually married the most beautiful woman in the world." Good girl, do you know?"
The next day, the wedding team arrived at Baifu. Liu Yanyuba carried a large sedan chair, dressed in red makeup, and welcomed the most beautiful girl in Jiangling.
Along the way, Bai Lan was sitting in a sedan chair in her wedding dress, feeling uneasy inside. However, the little girl who was accompanying her was chattering outside the sedan chair: "Miss, miss, you don't have to worry anymore. I've looked at it carefully for you. Our uncle is a very talented person, and he is gentle and elegant!"
Bai Lan, who was sitting in the sedan chair, pouted and said, "Who is worried? You damn girl!"
Since the journey to Liu's house was long and took five days, Liu Yanyu was very caring along the way. According to custom, they were not allowed to see each other before worshiping, so Bai Lan kept her head covered with a red hijab.
She only felt that there seemed to be a familiar voice in the crowd. The voice sounded very much like the person who had not come to the appointment half a year ago. But she thought to herself that it must be her wild imagination. How could that person be in the wedding party?
However, Bai Lan did not hear wrongly, that Zhuang Erlang was indeed in the procession to welcome the bride. He accompanied his best friend to marry the girl he loved, but the groom was not him.
Liu Yanyu slowed down his horse, came to the sedan chair where Bai Lan was sitting, and comforted him in a low voice: "Madam, thank you for your hard work on the journey! We have climbed over this mountain and we will be home before dark."
"Yes, husband...husband." Bai Lan said this unfamiliar title shyly. She had never even met the man she called her husband, the man she was about to entrust to her life.
She has been raised in the Bai family in Jiangling for sixteen years and has never been in the world. As soon as she left the Bai family, she would plunge into
Liu family. For her, it was just moving from one big house to another.
And she didn't dare to have too many expectations for the person she would be with for the rest of her life. She heard from her parents and brother that Liu Yanyu was an excellent person, and she thought that since they said so, he must not be too bad.
I haven't seen anyone along the way, but I heard his voice first. He was polite and considerate to him all the way, for fear that she would be tired, and always told everyone to rest. He was also afraid that she would be hungry or cold, so he sent someone to bring her food and fox fur.
The spring is cold, but this bright red color really shocked the whole spring, making this year's spring come prematurely, and everything is filled with joyful blessings.
However, there was an accident on the road.
The sedan chair suddenly broke, the bearer who carried the sedan chair fell, and the bride sitting in the sedan chair was suddenly thrown out.
Fortunately, Zhuang Yu dismounted from his horse in time and hugged Bai Lan, who almost fell to the ground.
"Miss Bai, are you okay?" Zhuang Yu asked.
Liu Yanyu in front reined in his horse, turned around, and rushed towards Bai Lan quickly.
Bai Lan held Zhuang Yu's arms with both hands and felt that his voice was so familiar. Her heart was in confusion and she thought, it can't be him... It can't be...
However, the red hijab covering her head was blown up by the wind and gently slipped down. At that moment, she finally saw clearly who was supporting her.
The twilight was like blood, hitting him. His thick eyebrows were slightly frowned, but his eyes were still clear, and he smiled at her.
Bai Lan's eyes trembled, and she was stunned.
It's him - it's really him!
She felt that her heart was about to jump out of her throat. A black horse in front of her rushed over. The young man in red who was sitting on the horse turned over and dismounted. He stretched out his hand to support her and said, "Madam, are you okay?"
The boy was indeed as handsome and good-looking as his parents said, with a simple and honest appearance and a pair of beautiful eyes. She blushed and whispered: "My hijab was blown away by the wind!"
"Oh...I'll go and get it back for you right now!"
"Hey - Brother Liu!"
Zhuang Yu stood up and shouted, looking at Liu Yanyu who was chasing the red hijab all the way, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "This idiot, leave the bride alone and chase that red hijab of Lao Shizi!"
When Bai Lan heard what he said, she couldn't help but chuckle.
Under the sun, the two looked at each other, both showing bright smiles.
"Oh, miss, get back in the sedan quickly, don't let anyone see your face!"
The dowry maid hurriedly held a handkerchief, tried her best to cover Bai Lan's face, and then sent her back to the sedan.
Bai Lan, who was sitting in the sedan, smiled and couldn't help crying. However, no one knew she was crying silently inside the curtain.
"Why didn't you come to the appointment that day?"
Bai Lan asked quietly.
Zhuang Yu was startled, then laughed and said: "Hahaha! I was entangled by the courtesan in Jiangling brothel, and I was drunk in Wenwen Township for five days... I have long forgotten about my appointment with you, wait for me When I woke up, I... rode my horse and left Jiangling."
What a thief who steals hearts and picks flowers! Shojiro, you are really a prodigal son in the world, a thief who specializes in stealing hearts!
"Did Miss Bai wait for me in the ginkgo forest for a long time?"
"No!" She tightened her red skirt with both hands, bit the corner of her mouth, and whispered, "I don't even remember who you are when I wake up!"
Zhuang Yu laughed,
Said: "Yes, yes, how could you miss a prodigal son, right?"
"Brother Zhuang! Brother Zhuang! I got the red hijab back!"
Liu Yanyu shook the red hijab in his hand and ran back happily.
Seeing him panting and looking stupid, Zhuang Yu couldn't help laughing and said: "Then why don't you go and cover your wife!"
"oh oh……"
Liu Yanyu opened the curtain and leaned in, but then hurriedly came out again as if he had seen a ghost.
Zhuang Yu was confused and said quickly: "What's wrong with you?"
Liu Yanyu blushed and said with heartbeat: "No, when I came here, my mother gave me many instructions, saying that the bride's hijab should not be uncovered before the ceremony. I can't break the rules, Brother Zhuang, why don't you go and cover it for me!"
Zhuang Yu laughed, knocked Liu Yanyu on the head, and said: "This groom, are you stupid? I am a man, how can I help you put a red hijab on the bride?"
Bai Lan inside stretched out a jade-like hand and said, "Give it to me, I'll just cover it myself!"
"Oh." Liu Yanyu quickly handed her the red hijab in his hand.
Then he couldn't hold back the joy in his heart and whispered to Zhuang Yu: "Brother Zhuang, my wife is so beautiful!"
Looking at Liu Yanyu's stupid face, he said: "You idiot, how can you be so obsessed with your wife? I don't think you can escape from her clutches in this life!"
"Brother Zhuang, she is such a good person, why should I escape from her grasp?" Liu Yanyu said with a naive smile.
The bride-to-be maid said, "Uncle, the sedan chair is broken. How can my young lady get to the Liu Mansion?"
Liu Yanyu was also in a dilemma and said, "I'm afraid it's too late to rush back and hire a new sedan chair."
Zhuang Yu said: "In order to avoid delaying the timing, why don't you let the bride ride on the same horse with you?"
"But this is not in line with etiquette!"
"There is an exception to everything. Which is more important, etiquette or auspicious timing? It's your choice."
Bai Lan, who was sitting in the sedan, put her red hijab back on and walked out slowly, saying: "Husband, why don't you just follow what Brother Zhuang said and I'll ride back with you on the same horse. My relatives and friends are still waiting at Liu Mansion. Come on, we can't waste the auspicious moment."
"Since the lady said so, that's great!"
Zhuang Yu smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Liu, I didn't expect you to be a person who listens to your wife! Tsk, tsk, tsk, it seems that your family status is not guaranteed after marriage!"
Liu Yanyu said: "Brother Zhuang, please stop making fun of me!"
Liu Yanyu helped Bai Lan to the front of the horse, then stretched out his hands to lift her onto the horse's back, turned her onto the horse, and the newlyweds rode away, followed closely by the wedding team.
At Liu Yanyu's wedding, Zhuang Yu was so drunk that his last friend got married and he just felt happy for him.
Red candles flicker in the bride's bridal chamber.
However, Shojiro's heart was bleeding. After that, he threw himself into Fireworks Willow Alley just to forget the person in his heart.
However, Liu Yanyu is his best brother, and he will inevitably see Bai Lan from time to time.
After getting married, Liu Yanyu did not let Bai Lan stay at home like an ordinary woman. Instead, he took her to travel around the world and became a couple of gods and gods.
Whenever Zhuang Yu saw Bai Lan again, his heart, which he thought had been numbed by wine, began to revive again, and his longing for her became stronger and stronger.
