Chapter 368
The woman seemed to be really sorry, and she didn't seem to be sarcastic.
He Yuxin lowered her eyebrows, with a calm smile on her face.
"Yes, my parents are also very happy."
The woman seemed to be more excited after hearing this, and pulled He Yuxin to talk.
"You are such a good-looking girl. Your parents are so lucky. You are so tender-skinned and tender. You must be a young lady raised by a wealthy family. Your parents are also sincere when you come to be the 'mother-in-law'."
He Yuxin smiled and made a shy gesture. She didn't answer the question but grabbed an extra handful of peanuts, melon seeds, longans and red dates and gave them to her.
Seeing her like this, the other women also became excited, talking around He Yuxin until He Yuxin finished dividing the bag of things, and then the women let her go.
And He Yuxin finally understood the general background of this book.
There is a mountain god in this book. The mountain god lives on the sacred mountain behind Jinri Mountain. He Yuxin is currently in a wedding procession. This is the bride sent to the mountain god.
He Yuxin learned from these people that the bride was not a living person, but a ghost.
These people avoid saying that the bride is a ghost, only saying that she is a 'bride', but it can be heard in their words that they have contempt, disdain, disgust, and even a bit of pity for the bride.
After some insinuation, He Yuxin learned that in fact, this wedding procession was not so much a mountain god marrying a wife, but a sacrificial ceremony in the name of a mountain god marrying a wife, or it could also be said to be a funeral for a ghost.
Regardless of whether these brides are male or female (the bride can also be male), when there are evil spirits or even evil spirits that cannot be solved in the place, people can use this method to send the evil spirits away.
Such a procession will walk around the local area and then send it to Jinri Mountain to offer it to the mountain god, who will purify it.
During this period, the "Xiniang" is the existence that appeases the evil spirits. The components of the "Xiniang" are relatively complex. First, they are selected from people who are causally involved with the evil spirits, and secondly, they are beautiful women.
The situation of these 'Xi Niangs' is dangerous. If they don't do it right, they will lose their lives, but there are many people rushing to do it.
Not only because being Xi Niang will get a generous reward, but also because if Xi Niang can survive during this period, Xi Niang will receive the blessing of the mountain god, not only will her beauty last forever, but she will also live to be 150 years old without any disease or disaster. Years old, her family and the husband she will marry in the future will also be blessed. Not only will they no longer be corrupted by evil spirits, but they will also live longer. If they are sick, they will gradually get better if they stay with Xi Niang for a longer time.
When the benefits of something outweigh the costs, it's a good thing.
Although many Xi Niangs have survived along the way, there are many vested interests who cannot hold back, so the lives of those Xi Niangs who died are no longer lives.
He Yuxin is such a happy mother, which explains why the steward didn't react much when he took two golden unicorn ornaments.
Because He Yuxin is not a maid who sells herself, she is a 'Xi Niang', and these belongings may have been brought from her home.
But even after figuring this out, He Yuxin was still not in a good mood.
If you put it this way, it wouldn't be wrong to say that this way of sending off relatives is a bad thing.
He Yuxin is not the kind of moral model who thinks everything is black and white, and she can accept gray areas.
Although this way of sending off a bride is absurd, it is also a helpless choice for ordinary people.
Ordinary people have no chance of winning against those monsters and monsters. In this case, He Yuxin can accept sacrificing some people in order to exchange for the safety of more people. As long as this evil ghost is not specially created or just to raise some 'Xi Niang' .
He Yuxin stared at the closed door for a long time. What she was thinking about was not what happened to the bride-to-be team, but what would happen to the bride-to-do team if Jin Xiaoshu beat the bride to death?
Obviously, if they want to see the golden toad, joining the wedding party is the most convenient way, but if the bride simply disappears, will they still send the bride off?
He Yuxin suddenly felt a little worried.
At this time, she didn't go to Xiu Gou, but stood at the closed door of the room, quietly waiting for the final result.
But the waiting time was a bit long. The door of the room was kept tightly closed and she did not hear any movement inside. Until the sun set and it was time to eat and sleep, there was still no movement in the room.
He Yuxin tried knocking on the window, but there was still no response.
After thinking about it, He Yuxin decided to go to bed first, and she would figure out other things later.
So she went to bed, never saying to see Xiu Gou, and Xiu Gou never came to see her again.
He slept until dawn. When there was movement outside, He Yuxin got up, washed herself and went out.
When she found out that she was actually a 'Xiniang' and not a real maid, she seemed calm.
Since she is not a maid, she does not need to do the work of serving others. She only needs to take care of herself.
It was quite late when He Yuxin went out, and when she came out, everyone in the group had eaten.
What she ate in the morning was white porridge. He Yuxin stared at the pot with white smoke for a few seconds and then looked away. She didn't plan to eat breakfast.
She ate two braised eggs before getting up and washing up. She wasn't hungry now. She came out just to stare at the house.
It wasn't until everyone in the team was full and ready to go on the road that the steward appeared. Then he stared at He Yuxin for a while and then coughed lightly.
"Okay, Amber, go and ask the lady out."
He Yuxin lowered her head and did not resist. She walked to the door, thought for a while and then spoke.
"Miss, it's time to set off."
As soon as she finished speaking, the door to the room that had been closed all night opened.
He Yuxin saw the bride wearing a wedding dress and a hijab raising her hand and making a gesture of support.
He Yuxin's eyes moved upward, and finally fell on those slender but not white hands with smoothly trimmed nails.
This is Jin Xiaoshu's hand!
After having this idea, she calmly stretched out her hand to catch the other person's. The warmth in her hand made He Yuxin feel relieved a lot. At this time, Jin Xiaoshu also squeezed He Yuxin's hand playfully, which made Jin Xiaoshu couldn't help but think a little. laugh.
He lowered his head and helped the person out as if he was respectful.
The steward didn't notice anything was wrong. When he saw the bride coming out, he turned around and asked someone to bring the sedan in to make it easier for the bride to enter.
After He Yuxin ushered the people into the sedan and the sedan door was completely closed, the steward spoke again.
He looked at He Yuxin a little strangely this time and looked up and down several times before speaking.
"You are very good, very good. I will benefit from you in the future."
He Yuxin smiled back at the steward. The steward didn't say anything more and directly called the people on their way.
The wedding convoy left the village in a mighty manner, and Xiniang had to walk beside the sedan. Now He Yuxin was the only Xiniang in the entire team, so she was closest to the sedan.
