Sao Ke is a spectator

Finally came the wedding day, and Dai Qi, who had been on a hunger strike for four days, had both sunken eye sockets, and despite the stubble growing out for a few days, his blue-gray face was comparable to a tuberculosis patient who had been ill for a long time.Seeing his eyes like this, the two mothers couldn't bear it, and said they wanted to put some powder on him to cover it up.

No matter what, it was also a day of great joy for him. With this sick face, he told the guests what to think.

The maids were arranging the groom's attire when they suddenly heard a servant come running in panting, his expression was like seeing a ghost.

"Grandpa, it's not good, Mr. Qingyang hanged himself..."

The bright red wedding clothes were more eye-catching against the gray face, and Dai Qi immediately sat down on the ground, with a miserable expression as if he heard that the person who hanged himself was my father Ye Zhenglun.

"Fortunately, he was discovered early, and he was finally rescued." The boy was unable to finish his sentence in one breath only because he ran too fast.

But Daiqi hadn't eaten for several days, so he couldn't spare any energy to beat him.

There was blowing and beating in the courtyard, presumably the procession for welcoming the bride had gone to Zuofu.In this side room, there is a stalemate in Dai Qi's room, his father has sent three or four servants over to urge him, Dai Qi is holding on to the edge of the door with both hands and will not go out.

As soon as his father stepped into the door, he pointed at the people in the room and began to shout.

"What are you all doing here? There are too many guests outside to greet you, and everyone is busy inside and out, so you have time to hide here."

Seeing his father coming, Dai Qi regained some strength in his semi-soft body, tore apart the sewn hydrangea ball, pointed at the little servant and tremblingly said, "Go, hang it on the beam for me."

No matter how I looked at it, I felt that this was a prelude to hanging myself.

The two mothers remained calm. One of them took out scissors from the red lacquered tray and divided the red satin into three parts. Fortunately, the hydrangea ball was long enough to hang three people.

The boys didn't dare to take orders, they all stared wide-eyed, probably just waiting to see a good show, I elbowed the uncle beside me: "Which song do you think the mothers are singing?"

The uncle shook his head, and the pink hollyhocks in his hand also shook his head.

My mother moved the stools by herself, hung three strips of red satin neatly on the roof, tied them with fast knots, turned around and stuck her head in to see if the width was enough, this act made my father's old face Frightened livid, he said tremblingly, "You, you, you... what are you going to do?"

Dai Qi's mother supported Dai Qi: "Today's matter is that the concubine has no way to teach her son. Although this little evil is useless, it must be my own flesh and blood. As a mother, I can't bear to let my son go to hell alone, so I will accompany him today. Together."

After speaking, he helped Dai Qi to walk into the inner room. The three stools under the beam of the room were neatly arranged, and my mother had already stood on them at this time.

Seeing this, my father hurriedly yelled with all the boys, me and my uncle: "What are you all doing standing there, why don't you go and pull it quickly."

This scene looked exciting and thrilling, the whole room was in a mess of people pushing and shoving, my uncle and I were going to pull, but there were too many maids and servants in the room, and before we both stepped forward, they would want to The three people who wanted to die were tight inside and out, and the three legs were hugged by the people below, unable to reach the satin and kick the stool, the scene was so chaotic and deadlocked.

"What exactly do you want?" the father asked them almost with a sad face.

The two mothers glanced at each other, and pushed Dai Qi tacitly: "Tell my mother, what are you thinking?"

Dai Qi clasped the red satin with both hands, resting half of his chin on it: "I would rather die... than marry her."

According to the character of the ruler of the dynasty, even if Dai Qi really refused to marry, he would not be beheaded. At most, he would deduct some salary and take back some of the Ye family's fiefdoms. It would be better than three people in the family dying overnight.I guess my father must have thought of this too, and now he simply doesn't care about it, just sitting in the room with his hands on his forehead and sighing.

Suddenly, the most qualified manager in the family stepped into the house on two old legs, looking flustered, and before he could open his mouth, a woman wearing a phoenix crown and Xiapei followed in.

It really was a delicate and bright face, but no matter how good the rouge and gouache was at the moment, it couldn't hide the anger on her face.

Weiyu, my sister-in-law who has never been here, looked around the room first, and first saw the three people standing on the stool, her slender eyebrows immediately frowned.

Dai Qi was wearing a wedding dress with his head hanging from the beam, anyone who wasn't blind could tell that he was trying to commit suicide.Unkempt, with a sickly gray face, and a beard that was half a foot long, it made my unmarried sister-in-law look like a ghost.

I saw her turn her head with a little disgust, and her eyes fell on my uncle and me. When she looked at me, the expression on her face eased a little. When she saw my uncle again, I vaguely saw the rouge There was a little blush on her pretty face.

There was a half-smile in the uncle's eyes. Today he was wearing a smoky blue gown, holding a few pink hollyhocks in his hand.Anyone who sees it will feel like a spring breeze blowing on his face, like an autumn moon shining brightly, and my future sister-in-law must have ripples in her heart.

She stroked the hair bun that was messed up in a hurry, straightened the phoenix crown, and tore off the wedding dress. The anger seemed to have subsided a little, and she almost choked and said to my father Ye Zhenglun: "Eight palanquins carried me to the door, but there was no one in the hall. Could Shibo give my daughter an explanation?"

At first, the father coughed a few times in embarrassment, and then turned his attention to the two mothers: "Weren't you quite troublesome just now? Why are you all dumb when I ask you to explain it now?"

The mothers stretched their heads out of the red satin gracefully, and gracefully got off the stool. Daiqi's mother walked up to Zuo Qiongyu and said, "I'm sorry, my niece, today... I'm afraid I won't be able to marry you." .”

Zuo Qiongyu sneered: "Auntie really likes to joke, if you can't marry, why bother to carry me in the door?" After she finished speaking, she looked at my father again.

"Uncle, since I have entered the door of your Ye family today, there is no reason to go out. In short, I am now a member of your Ye family. Unless I die, I will never step out of your Ye family."

Dai Qi pointed at her and tremblingly said: "Haven't paid homage, why do you say you are mine?"

Zuo Qiongyu glanced at him, turned his face away immediately, paced back and forth, and said, "As the so-called parents' order and matchmaker's words, even if the elder brother is unwilling, it shouldn't be the case. It doesn't matter to me. After all, I don't care." A person with face, but my father is different." After pausing his feet, he stared at my father again: "The uncle also knows that my father is a person who loves face very much, and you and my father are both court officials. It's not just your family's face that will be lost if you continue to make trouble like this, it's not that the little girl has to marry her elder brother, it's just that this marriage was bestowed by His Majesty, if I insist on making trouble..."

She hesitated to speak and glanced at her uncle, then took a few steps forward: "My little girl has an idea, but I don't know if Shi Bo is willing."

"What way?" My father asked hastily.

Zuo Qiongyu walked up to his uncle with a faint smile, and broke off a branch of the hollyhock in his hand: "There should be more than one elder brother who is not yet married in the elder uncle's family!"

When my mother heard this, she hurriedly protected me behind her, and pushed my uncle hard.

The father asked, "What does my nephew mean?"

She brought the flower to the tip of her nose, before she could say anything, her face became hot, she said to my father in a half-coquettish manner: "The meaning of the little girl is very clear, why does Shibo ask again."

My sister-in-law who has never passed the family, no... it should be the aunt who is about to pass the family. She is really a strange woman.

Everyone was stunned for a long time because of her words, so the boss told me in detail the process from entering the door to rushing here in this spare time.Talking about how she tore off the hijab, how she scolded me and asked me if the Ye family was dead, how she grabbed the old man by his collar and threatened him to bring her here...

I think my father has stayed there for half his life, but now he is clearer than ever.

My uncle still had a smile on his face without knowing it, and he didn't realize that the danger was approaching him.

The two mothers naturally agreed, and hurriedly said to the two girls behind them: "Take off the wedding robe of the eldest son, and change clothes for the second master."

My aunt, who was about to pass the door, smiled, and said shyly to the two mothers who almost became her own mother-in-law: "Please trouble the sisters-in-law."
