Liu Erniang did have some skills. Fu Shangyi made up her mind after blowing the wind beside her pillow all night. If Fu Shuang'er couldn't be found, Fu Jingxuan would marry her into the sedan chair, and even told the Fang family not to let her sleep. Wife, you have to do everything possible to protect the face of the family.

There is a memorial tablet of Grandpa Cheng on the altar table of the ancestral hall. The Fu family is connected to Jiutian, and there are only a dozen of them in front of them. The sedan chair, regardless of male or female, has to be locked in the Fang family for the rest of its life. As a member of the Fang family, don't even think about coming back.

It was rainy in spring, and the cargo workers at Linjiang Ferry took a break for a few days, and started working this morning when they came out.Standing on the bank of the river was an old man in a gray coat with a stooped back. He was in his fifties, thin and sallow, with a pair of black eyes set in deep eye sockets, and his eyes were piercing. Looking at the boats coming and going on the river, it seems like waiting for something.Linjiang crosses thousands of miles and extends in all directions. The source is located [-] miles outside the city of Chuzhou. It is extremely convenient for business and passenger transportation. Many people who sell goods to visit relatives will come here by boat because the mountain road is steep and remote.

The boatman at the ferry crossed over to the old man with a cigarette bag, and asked cheerfully, "Is the dumb uncle here again to wait for a new relative?"

Uncle Dumb nodded, pointed to the sky, and then to the boats docked on the shore.

The boatman understood, and said, "It's only been half a day. The weather was bad a few days ago, and many boats from Jiangling were delayed."

Uncle Dumb smiled gratefully, handed him two copper coins and turned back to the city, first went to the tailor shop on South Street to get a new set of clothes, and then went to the pastry shop on North Street to get a pack of Huanxi Dumplings to be the shopkeeper of the Dumplings Wearing an oiled apron, he came out from behind the curtain, saw that the dumb uncle was still there, and said by the way: "This time the dumpling contains a lot of sugar, it must be to the taste of the big boss."

Uncle Dumb thanked him again and again, went out of the store, turned around the streets, crossed East and West Avenues, and stopped in front of a house.

At three o'clock in the morning, the door of Fang's house opened slowly, and the two doorkeepers yawned and stood lazily on each side. One of them, Chen Er, saw Uncle Dumb about to enter, so he stretched out his hand to stop him, "This early in the morning! Where did you go? What did you buy?"

Uncle Dumb gave a rough "Ah" twice, and handed over the things in his hand. Chen Er tore open the package brought back from the tailor shop, took out a set of brand new toga, and laughed, "It's really a shame for a cripple to wear such a good material." It’s a waste.” I tore open the oil paper bag containing the happy balls and smelled it, and didn’t ask the host if I could eat it, so I took one and stuffed it into my mouth, before I swallowed it, I spit it out again, retching Said: "What the hell! It's so sweet that it hits the throat! Is it for people to eat?" While cursing and throwing things on the ground, the dumb uncle bent down to fish the clothes and paper bags into his hands, and squatted down quickly , as if just picked it up.

The other servant named Zhou Qi couldn't see it, so he stepped forward to comfort Chen Er, and winked at the dumb uncle, telling him to go in quickly.

"It's just an old man and a disabled man! I don't know what Madam still keeps them in the mansion. According to my opinion, get them out as soon as possible, so as not to occupy the title of shopkeeper!" Chen Er spit at the back of the dumb uncle, his tone Very disrespectful.

Zhou Qi only came to Fang's house not long ago, but he was used to this kind of scene, he thought about it for a while, and said kindly: "Brother Chen, Uncle Dumb is also the person next to the head of the house, let's..."

"The head of the family?" Chen Er grabbed the words, looked up at the plaque above his head, gloated, and said, "From now on, this plaque will have to say whether it's surnamed Fang or not, who cares whether he is the head of the house or not?"

Compared with the pavilions and pavilions built by the Fu family, the Fang family's house is much more elegant. Although it does not deliberately highlight the luxury, it is exquisite and unique everywhere. The dumb uncle walked through the long corridor window with his things and entered a courtyard. The courtyard is carved with bricks and stones, with lush flowers and trees, birdcages hanging on the osmanthus trees, and magpies carved on the lintel. The magpies stand on the branches of plum blossoms in full bloom, which means "happy eyebrows" and "happy events come to the door", but the carvings have been done for a long time. It's old, and no one cleans it often, it looks a bit old.

Unable to make a sound, the dumb uncle knocked on the door to make some noise before entering, but no one answered, so he also walked in, sent the new clothes to the inner room, and found a white jade plate to put the happy ball on.

Seeing that the new family is about to arrive, the Fang family doesn't have any atmosphere for a happy event. Except for two red lanterns hanging at the door, there is no extra decoration. The dumb uncle wandered around the flower hall twice with the plate, not knowing where to put it. which table.

These glutinous rice dumplings have been made to a specific taste, and there is a different kind of thought hidden, but I don't know where the person who wants to eat is sitting or whether they will come or not.

But when my sister gets married, should she come over to see her off?After deliberating for a while, I couldn't make up my mind, so I went into the study.

There is a person sitting in front of the book case, his eyes are like the sky, and his eyes are as bright as a jade tree. He is dressed in white with collar and a dark toga.The man didn't tie his hair up, he only tied the end of his hair with a dark hair band, and held half a piece of white jade in his hand, rubbing it carefully.This piece of jade pendant is not short-lived, engraved with a pine bird, the bird is like a thrush, with a white cherry on its head, stepping on an indistinguishable flower branch, it is lifelike.

Hearing the dumb uncle enter the door, he raised his eyes. It was the limping head of the Fang family, Fang Zesheng.

The dumb uncle held the plate, indicating that he didn't know where to put it, and made two gestures, meaning: the new relative is coming soon.

Fang Zesheng looked at the jade pendant for a long time, and finally put it in a locked box, calmed down his turbulent emotions, and said lightly: "Put it where you want, he likes sweets, and he will dig it out and eat it wherever he puts it."

As soon as the conversation fell, Zhou Qi's shout came from the courtyard, and the dumb uncle ran out in a hurry, knowing that the Jiangling Fu family's send-off team had arrived after noon, and he had to ask the head of the family to change into his clothes and prepare for the wedding ceremony.

The journey was tiring, and after walking for nearly half a month, the first thing Sanbao did when he disembarked was not to help Erye Fu, who was wearing a wedding dress, into the sedan chair, but to hug a tree trunk and vomit.Fu Jingye was forced to come here to see off his relatives. It was no better than Sanbao. He was full of resentment at first, but when he thought about saying goodbye to Fu Jingxuan Shanshui, he became happy again. The horse ran with the momentum of a good steed for thousands of miles.

Sanbao followed beside the sedan chair with a burden on his back, and whispered, "Master, are we really not looking for a chance to escape? I thought for a while and thought that this was all Liu Erniang's plan! She is really treacherous!"

Fu Jingxuan ignored him, and Sanbao jumped anxiously: "Young master, let's run quickly, if Fang's family has discussed it with Liu Erniang, wouldn't we be like a sheep?" Stretched out from the sedan chair, and knocked on his head, Sanbao asked aggrievedly: "Should we run or not, young master? I guess it will be easier for us to go to Fang's house, and we might as well go back and bully the young master."

Fu Jingxuan lifted up the red hijab, opened the sedan chair curtain and said with a smile, "Why are you running? I came here on a special trip. How can there be any reason to run?"
