Siheyuan: Rebirth of Liu Ergou

No. 95, Nanluoguxiang, an ancient courtyard, is immersed in a festive atmosphere. Big red lanterns are hung high, red silk cloth flutters in the wind, and people come and go in the courtyard, making it very lively. This is Xu Damao's wedding, the most important day in his life.

The night before, Xu Damao was so nervous that he didn't know what to do. He specially prepared a few side dishes and invited his good friend Liu Rui to come over for a few drinks, telling him about his anxiety and expectations. As soon as Liu Rui entered the room, he saw Xu Damao's face, which was distorted by nervousness, and couldn't help laughing.

"Da Mao, what's wrong with you? Tomorrow is your big day, you should be happy!" Liu Rui joked. Although I told Lou Xiao'e the details and she reluctantly agreed after you met, I was still very nervous.

Xu Damao smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I don't know what's wrong, I'm just nervous. Tell me, will something go wrong tomorrow?"

Liu Rui patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, Damao. You have been preparing for this day for so many years. Everything will go well tomorrow, believe me."

The two talked and drank, and after a few drinks, Xu Damao gradually relaxed. He began to think about tomorrow's wedding, imagining how Lou Xiao'e would look in her wedding dress, and imagining himself holding her hand and walking into the wedding hall.

The next morning, Xu Damao got up early. He dressed neatly and invited a barber to do his hair. Looking at his new self in the mirror, he took a deep breath and told himself, "Xu Damao, you can do it." He then went to see the wedding car borrowed from the Lou family.

As soon as the sun rose, the driver took him to Lou Xiao'e's home. Lou Xiao'e was ready. She was wearing a pure white wedding dress, like a fairy descending from the earth. The moment Xu Damao saw her, his heart skipped a beat. He walked up to her and gently held her hand: "Xiao'e, you are so beautiful today."

Lou Xiao'e smiled shyly: "Da Mao, you are also very handsome."

The two smiled at each other, and then walked out of Lou Xiao'e's house hand in hand. The wedding car had been waiting outside for a long time, and they got in the wedding car and headed to No. 95, Nanluoguxiang.

Along the way, Xu Damao held Lou Xiao'e's hand tightly. He felt as if he was in a dream, everything was so beautiful and so unreal. But he knew that this was not a dream, this was his and Lou Xiao'e's wedding, a testimony of their love.

Finally, the wedding car stopped at the gate of No. 95 Nanluoguxiang. After Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e got off the car, they were greeted by warm applause and cheers. Their relatives and friends had been waiting here for a long time. When they saw them appear, they all surrounded them and gave them blessings and gifts.

Xu Damao held Lou Xiao'e's hand and walked towards the wedding hall step by step. Their faces were filled with happy smiles, as if the whole world was rejoicing for them.

The wedding went very smoothly. Under the guidance of the host, they exchanged rings and made eternal vows. At that moment, Xu Damao felt as if he owned the whole world. He looked into Lou Xiao'e's eyes and said affectionately: "Xiao'e, I will love you forever."

Lou Xiao'e's eyes were filled with tears. She held Xu Damao's hand tightly and said, "Damo, I will love you forever."

At night, Xu Damao was so nervous that he didn't know what to do, so he mixed white wine with red wine and got his wife Lou Xiao'e drunk.

Liu Rui helped the drunken Lou Xiao'e into the bridal chamber. The warmth and sweetness of the wedding night filled every corner of the room. Liu Rui and Lou Xiao'e hugged each other tightly, immersed in a happy dream. The morning sun shone through the gap in the curtains and gently sprinkled on their faces.

Lou Xiao'e slowly woke up, staring at Liu Rui who was sleeping beside her, with a happy smile on her face. She sighed softly, her heart full of emotion. This man was her lifelong support and the source of her happiness.

Lou Xiao'e got up carefully, fearing that she would wake Liu Rui. She put on her loose pajamas and walked into the kitchen, preparing to make a hearty breakfast for Liu Rui. She opened the cupboard, took out eggs, milk, bread and other ingredients, and began to get busy.

Soon, bursts of fragrance came from the kitchen. Lou Xiao'e skillfully fried eggs, toasted bread, and brewed a pot of fragrant coffee. Her movements were light and graceful, as if she was playing a beautiful piece of music.

When breakfast was ready, Lou Xiao'e gently returned to the bedroom, sat by the bed, and looked at Liu Rui. Her eyes were full of love and tenderness. She gently stroked Liu Rui's face and said softly, "Dear, it's time to get up. Breakfast is ready."

Liu Rui was awakened by Lou Xiao'e's voice. He opened his eyes and saw Lou Xiao'e's gentle smile, and his heart was filled with happiness. He sat up, stretched, and then hugged Lou Xiao'e tightly and said, "Thank you, dear, you have worked hard."

Lou Xiao'e smiled and said, "It's not hard. As long as you are happy, I will be satisfied."

Liu Rui and Lou Xiao'e smiled at each other, then walked into the kitchen together to enjoy a delicious breakfast. Their newlywed life was full of sweetness and happiness.
