After leaving the small building where Xu Ping and Xu An slept, Xu Ling went outside Xu's room.
"Mom, have you slept?"
"Not yet, she wants to eat sweets all the time. Ah Ling, come in and talk to mother."
Xu Ling entered the room. Mrs. Xu was sitting on the bed with Daya in her arms. The wooden box at the head of the bed was half-locked, with snacks wrapped in butter paper placed on top.
Da Ya held a piece of mung bean cake and ate it. Xu Ling walked over and touched the quilt on Xu's couch, "Mom, is it cold to sleep at night?"
When building a house, he specially hired people to build a fire kang for the room where Xu and Fan Shiqing slept. Burning it for a while before going to bed would keep them warm all night.
Mrs. Xu smiled from ear to ear: "It's warm, don't worry about mother."
"How can I not worry about it? Mom is in good health, so I can rest assured when I'm outside. The kang shouldn't be too hot, otherwise she'll get angry. Don't let Daya eat too many snacks at night. It will accumulate food and be bad for her teeth. "
While Xu Ling was chattering, he went to check whether the window was closed properly. Mrs. Xu just smiled and watched him busy in the room.
"Okay, mom knows, you should go to bed quickly."
Xu Ling brought some water for Daya to rinse her mouth, kissed her little face, and then left.
The second floor of the wooden building where he and Gu Tao lived was lit with red candles. Xu Ling had a smile on his face and went in with some apprehension.
Close the doors and windows downstairs and wind your way upstairs on the wooden stairs.
The closer he got, the more nervous he became. When he saw the happy word on the door, he had the illusion that today was a wedding.
With a "squeak" sound, the door was pushed open, and a faint figure was revealed on the bed hidden by the bead curtain.
Gu Tao was wearing a bright red wedding dress, with two dragon and phoenix wedding candles lit on the table, and she was crying.
Next to two porcelain white wine glasses, there was the red daughter Xu Ling had specially asked for from his father-in-law last time.
It is said that the rice wine buried in the family when the daughter was born was used to entertain distinguished guests when the daughter got married.
He had never drunk it before and thought it would be the best use on the wedding night.
The charcoal stove in the room was always burning, and the room was very warm. I don't know if it was because the charcoal fire was too warm, but Xu Ling's mouth was dry and his legs were trembling.
"You're back?"
Gu You asked softly.
Her voice was filled with clear sweetness, and it sounded like the sound of nature to Xu Ling's ears.
Xu Ling picked up the wedding pole on the table and stepped forward boldly, "They are still drinking outside. I was thinking of you, so I came back first."
The corner of Gu Tao's mouth hidden under the wedding dress had never moved down. When he heard Xu Ling say this, he was stunned for a moment, who was still drinking outside.
I heard Xu Ling continue: "Today, by coincidence, Zhao Zhen and Gu Yao in the village also got married. I heard that Gu Yao is very beautiful, but I don't believe it - no matter how beautiful she is, can she be as beautiful as you?"
Gu You blinked and couldn't help biting his lower lip. The corners of his mouth were still raised, but his eyes gradually became moist.
"You...you think I'm prettier than her?"
"That's natural. The day you fell into the water, I saved you abruptly, and you had no choice but to marry me. Can you blame me?"
Gu Tao cried and laughed, speechless and could only shake his head.
"You don't blame me?" Xu Ling's voice was full of joy, and he said anxiously: "That's good. I only want you and you to be my wife, then it will be just the two of us for the rest of our lives."
Xu Ling walked to Gu You, sat down gently, and took her hand.
"Are you willing to live with me for the rest of your life?"
Gu You nodded his head, his eyesight blurred by tears, lowered on the wedding dress, exuding little bits of dark color.
Xu Ling said softly: "You can't cry on such a happy day."
He took out the gold ring he had prepared for a long time from his sleeve, put it on Gu Tao, and gave her a men's ring of the same style, "Put it on for me too. This is called a concentric ring. Each of us will have one for the rest of our lives." A pair for a lifetime, once you put it on you can’t change it.”
Gu Tao tried his best to open his eyes wide, blink away the tears, and put a ring on Xu Lingye.
Their hands were placed together, with a gold ring on their ring fingers.
Xu Ling's hands were long and rough. His body was healthy and he had the beauty of strength unique to men.
Gu Tao's hands were slender and soft, with naturally pink and white skin that looked like gelatin. When they were placed next to Xu Ling's hands, they made him look even darker.
"Too far," Xu Ling lifted the red hijab covering Gu You's head, lowered his head unexpectedly and kissed her on the lips. Her lips were bitter, and her face seemed to have been washed by tears, and her eyes were full of water. It was also clearer, and he looked at Xu Ling with his eyes wide open.
What he wanted to say was blocked in his lips, Gu You's eyelashes trembled slightly and he closed his eyes shyly.
Her green hands grasped the new red mattress on the bed, as if this was really their wedding night.
By this moment, Xu Ling was no longer nervous.
He lightly tasted the plucked red lips in front of him, and felt how soft and tender they were. He tentatively went deep into it, and Gu Tuo let out a sound, and leaned softly against Xu Ling. Xu Ling was in awe.
"Wait...wait a minute, I haven't drunk the wine yet!"
Xu Ling struggled to get up from Wenrouxiang and quickly went to the table to pour wine, "Quick, we won't be considered married until we drink this glass of wine."
Gu You couldn't help but smile, and drank a glass of wine with him cooperatively, and drank it all in one gulp.
Xu Linghou hurriedly put down his cup and lowered the drawn curtain to block out the light of the wedding candle. The bed was dim and hazy, just like the dream he had that day.
The real Gu Tao is much more beautiful than the one in the dream.
Xu Ling tentatively put the backs of his fingers on her warm pink cheeks, feeling her breath. Gu You looked at him expectantly and shyly, grabbed Xu Ling's clothes with both hands, and slowly pulled him down together. Mandarin ducks like to be fucked.
He is like a fish, swimming through the lush aquatic plants and roaming freely in the warm water, or like ice exposed to the scorching sun, melting and becoming one with Wang Ze.
The wedding candle remained unextinguished all night, until all the wax tears had burned out and softened into a puddle of wax mud, condensing on the mahogany table.
The wind and snow were blowing outside, and I don’t know when it gradually stopped. The sky and the earth changed colors, and everything was covered in silver. Some birds stayed on the branches, chirping, jumping up and down on the branches, startling the fluttering snow. .
Xu Ling slept very deeply, and the bed was very warm. He didn't want to wake up when he heard someone talking outside.
Gu You woke up early. Even though she had a ridiculous night last night, she was used to getting up early, but she couldn't fall asleep no matter how tired she was.
What's more, looking at Xu Ling sleeping sweetly beside her, a sweet smile appeared on her lips when she thought about what happened last night. After thinking about it, she couldn't sleep anymore.
Just look at Xu Ling like that, staring at his handsome eyebrows, sliding your fingertips down from his temples, and couldn't help but touch his high bridge of nose and some dry and flaky lips.
She originally slept in Xu Ling's arms, but somehow she changed positions during the night. Xu Ling slept in the crook of her elbow. He held her waist, and his breath tickled her collarbone, which was only wearing a small coat.
She thought about it, her eyes curved like crescent moons, and she kissed Xu Ling's eyebrows again.
Xu Ling suddenly opened his eyes, raised his head from her chest like a puppy, kissed her on the chin, and said in a hoarse and tender voice: "I'm so far away, my wife."
