Chapter 24 Beloved

Quanzi knew that Zhuang Yang had an older brother, Zhuang Lan often mentioned that her elder brother was doing business abroad, she was afraid of him, but also liked him very much.Whether it's Zhuang Ping or Zhuang Yang, they are very gentle in temperament, Quanzi can't help but wonder what kind of person this Zhuang Yang's brother is.

It was the first time for Quanzi to see such a gorgeous carriage. One of them had a painted body, gorgeous horse decorations, a bow cap with a black inside and a red watch, and a colorful ribbon.This is a carriage with curtains, and the front of the carriage is covered by a curtain, so that the people in the carriage cannot be seen.

In front of the cart, the leader was a light cart without curtains, and sitting in the cart was a middle-aged man, wearing a brocade robe, with a strong figure and a generous appearance. He was obviously Ah Li's father.I saw Zhang's mother and daughter clustered around him, and A Li even threw himself into his arms, hugging his father's round waist with his short arms.

Gouzi watched stupidly, watching the reunion of the Zhang family.

Among the three carriages, there were two carriages, one with Zhang Yin and the other with Zhuang Bing.Zhuang Bing is also dressed in Guanjian's attire. He looks very young, but calm.He got out of the car and knelt down in front of Zhuang's mother.Zhuang's mother helped him up.He glanced at his younger siblings and hugged them one by one. The children of the dealer have a good relationship and love each other, which is really enviable.

At this time, Zhang Yin came over and talked to Zhuang's mother. The people of Zhuang and Zhang's family all looked at the carriage that was parked quietly all the time.Zhuang's mother's expression was first surprised, and then pleasantly surprised. She held Zhuang Bing's hand and talked excitedly.Zhuang Lan and A Ping stood stupidly, looking very dazed, but Zhuang Yang walked towards his uncle with a joyful smile on his face.

Quan Zi stood far away, unlike other idlers who surrounded him. He observed the expressions of Zhuang and Zhang's family, but did not hear their conversation clearly.Quanzi is more and more interested in the person sitting in the carriage, who could it be?

Surrounded by his family and relatives, Zhuang Bing walked to the farmer's yard. Zhuang Bing's cart followed closely behind the cart, and the curtain of the cart was never opened.

The onlookers were very curious and guessed who was sitting in the carriage.I don't know who heard it clearly, and said: "It's the bride, the man of the Zhuang family has married a wife!" The crowd was noisy, and they followed the carriage closely.

The carriage finally stopped in the courtyard of the Zhuang's house. Zhuang Bing walked to the front of the carriage and pulled up the curtain of the carriage. Inside was a beautifully dressed bride.Zhuang Bing helped the bride get out of the car. The bride bowed her head shyly, held hands with Zhuang Bing, and led the bride in with the support of her family.

The bride is graceful and beautiful, attracting onlookers to watch.

The farmer’s servants unloaded a lot of dowry from the carriage, including exquisite silk, dazzling lacquerware and exquisite bronze vessels, lamps, and incense burners.

People in Zhuli rushed to tell each other that Zhuang Dalang had married a beautiful bride and brought a cart full of dowry.

Seeing that Zhuang Yang and the others had entered the house, Quan Zi dispersed, unlike the others, who gathered around the courtyard and looked around.

On this day, the farmer's servants were busy in groups, killing pigs and sheep, washing dishes, and the dog came to live in Zhuli for half a year. This was the first time I saw such a lively scene.

Gouzi went home and saw Mother Liu, who had always been quietly weaving in the hall, standing on the wooden bridge and looking around, apparently she also heard the movement outside.

"Gouzi, the dealer is so lively, who is here?"

"Mum, it's Zhuang Dalang who came back and brought his bride."

"No wonder."

Mother Liu also knew that the dealer had a big man who was doing business abroad.

The mother and son went back to the house. Seeing that it was getting dark, Mother Liu had already prepared dinner.The mother and son ate crude food and did not visit the farmer who was hosting a big banquet.

Lying on the couch at night, what Quanzi couldn't forget was that beautiful carriage. He dreamed that he also had such a carriage, and he was dressed like a distinguished guest and sat in it.The self in the dream is an adult man, crowned with swords and brocade robes, driving a carriage alone, galloping across the fields.

Zhuangzhai's family banquet, at the banquet, apart from the Zhuang's family, uncle's family was also invited.

Before the banquet, Zhuang Bing took his bride and kowtowed to Zhuang's mother in the hall, and Zhuang's mother helped them up.Zhuang's mother held her daughter-in-law's hand and asked her something in a low voice.The bride is quiet and easy-going, and treats Zhuang's mother respectfully and docilely.Although the marriage was not decided by Zhuang's mother, she was satisfied with this daughter-in-law.

After Zhuang Bing and his wife kowtowed to the elders, the younger generation sat down and enjoyed the delicious food.

Uncle Zhang Yin sat at the honored seat and told how he presided over Zhuang Bing's marriage in Guanghan County.

In spring, Zhuang Bing and his uncle went to Guchang to sell horses and shipped them to Guanghan County. Zhang Yin went to drink at the home of Lin Zhong, a friend in the county, as usual, and just heard that Lin Zhong was going to marry his daughter.The second daughter of the Lin family, Jingjing, has a good reputation. Zhuang Bing intends to marry her, so his uncle helps to match her up.Originally, I didn't dare to think that Lin Zhong would agree. There are many people asking for marriage, and their family backgrounds are much better than Zhuang Bing's.After getting the approval, he rushed to organize the wedding, but in the future, he had no time to inform his family in Linqiong.

"Thanks to my uncle, this wonderful event was made possible."

Zhuang Bing raised his wine to express his thanks, and the bride was sitting beside him, and the bride also raised her wine to express her gratitude, bowing her head respectfully.

"Waiting for courtesy is also Ah Bing's outstanding talent, and he is appreciated by others."

When praising his great nephew, Zhang Yin was never stingy with good words.

Unlike my uncle's generosity and benevolence, my aunt was shrewd and asked about the situation of the Lin family, how many sisters and brothers there were, whether the sisters were married, and what kind of business the brothers did for a living.

The bride replied softly, without losing courtesy.When she replied, Zhuang Bing kept smiling and nodding. Such a small detail caught Zhuang Yang's attention.Zhuang Yang knew that his brother was serious and obviously loved this woman deeply.

The bride's name is Lin Qiang, and her childhood name is Axi. There are four siblings in the family. The eldest sister is married, the younger sister is still young, and the younger brother is Lin Yu.

The adults talked about the family's injustice, and the children were not interested. Zhuang Lan scooped up the delicious meat soup and drank it, her eyebrows and eyes were curved, because she was accompanied by delicious food, she was also happy in her heart.

After the banquet was over, Zhuang's mother held the bride's hand and went to the house to talk.Zhuang Bing sent his aunt's family out of the house, called his siblings together, and called them into his room.

Although selling horses is hard work, the income is quite rich, and Zhuang Bing earns a lot of money, so he can be favored by the Lin family and marry a beautiful woman.Zhuang Bing treats his family generously. Whenever he comes back from selling horses, he will bring something to his siblings.

Seeing her elder brother open a large lacquer box, Zhuang Lan went to the dog's legs, snuggled up to Zhuang Bing and called her elder brother affectionately.Zhuang Bing said with a smile: "Now you know how to call me elder brother." Today Zhuang Lan is in a daze, and I am afraid that she is still confused about her eldest brother getting married and having a sister-in-law. "Brother is the best." Zhuang Lan hugged Zhuang Bing's arm and did not let go. "Okay, okay." Zhuang Bing pulled Zhuang Lan away, and then he took out a pair of copper bells from the box.The copper bells are tied with red strings, with exquisite patterns.Ordinary people's children don't have toys, and rich people's children have gifts, but at most they are mud carts, tiles and dogs.

"Ah, it's a bell! I like it so much, thank you, brother!"

Zhuang Lan took the bell, tied it around her waist, and ran out of the house with the bell. Although she is usually rough, she is very beautiful, probably to show off to her grandmother.

Looking at Zhuang Lan's joyful figure, Zhuang Bing shook his head helplessly. He is only a younger sister, so naturally he loves him the most.

"Ping, come here."

Zhuang Bing looked up at Zhuang Ping, Zhuang Ping was always quiet and sensible, but timid.

"Brother."

Zhuang Ping stood in front of Zhuang Bing, he smiled shyly.

"I saw a pair of chess pieces in a store, so I bought them for you to play with. Don't delay your studies."

Zhuang Bing took out two bamboo chess boxes and a chessboard from the box. The chessboard is also made of bamboo and can be rolled up, but it does not take up space.

"Thank you bro."

Zhuang Ping held the gift and smiled broadly.His kid likes to be quiet, so playing chess suits him.Zhuang Ping also happily left with a gift.It has to be said that the eldest brother Zhuang Bing knows their preferences.

At this moment, only Zhuang Bing and Zhuang Yang were left in the house, and Zhuang Bing said: "When I'm not around, you have to worry about the house." Zhuang Yang said with shame: "I am leisurely at home, and I am not as good as my brother, who is eating and sleeping in the open, and working hard in the wilderness." " Zhuang Bing patted Zhuang Yang on the shoulder, and the two brothers hugged each other. "Congratulations, brother." Zhuang Yang laughed.Zhuang Bing said: "I was still thinking on the road, how to tell my family about my marriage." The incident was so sudden, and I am very pleased with my family's acceptance. "The one my brother likes must be a good woman." Zhuang Yang had a good impression of his sister-in-law. "She's pretty good." Zhuang Bing rarely showed a silly smile, but Zhuang Yang didn't see it because the lights were dim at night.

"Brother, I will tell you about the tenant's rent collection tomorrow. You are tired from the journey, so you should rest early."

Zhuang Yang saluted, intending to leave his brother's bedroom, so as not to bump into his sister-in-law when she came back later.After all, they are still unfamiliar, and they are afraid that my sister-in-law will be embarrassed.

"You don't need to tell me about these things. You can make up your own mind. Ayang, don't leave yet."

Zhuang Bing got up, went to the side of the couch to fetch a long object, and put it in a wooden box, the wooden box was painted, it was very exquisite.

"There has been no sound of silk and bamboo in the bamboo for many years, even I sometimes think of it."

Zhuang Bing handed the wooden box to Zhuang Yang, who hugged it like a baby.At this time, Zhuang Yang knew what was in the wooden box, his eyes were moist, and he said with emotion: "Thank you, brother."

Zhuang Bing sighed: "I have wronged you, if my father is still alive, how can you not even have Zhang Qin."

Zhuang Yang learned piano since he was a child. After leaving Jinguan City, he never owned a piano of his own.Zhuang Yang loves the piano very much. In the past, Zhou Jing, the master who taught Zhuang Yang, had a piano, and Zhuang Yang always borrowed it from him to play.After Zhou Jing left, Zhuang Yang never touched the qin again. There are only a handful of people who can read and write in this remote place, let alone those who know how to play the qin.

When mentioning his father, Zhuang Bing felt sad again. He was the oldest of the four children, and he had the clearest memory of his father Zhuang Shou, and he still had a fresh memory of the luxurious life back then.

"Brother, don't be sad, I have a new piano."

Zhuang Yang laughed, caressing the wooden box.

Zhuang Yang exited his elder brother's room and went to his own room, then slowly opened the wooden box.Inside the wooden box is a long-awaited piano with exquisite materials and elegant paint colors.I dare not try my voice, because it is night, I am afraid of disturbing people's dreams.Zhuang Yang caressed the body of the piano, as if he was caressing his true love. When he was young, he did not have a beloved, but he had something dear.
