[Thin Sakura Ghost] Tongqi

How could it be possible to do such a thing... I muttered as I thought about how Shinpachi folded his hands and begged me.

"Go and cry if you have the ability."

"Why cry?" A familiar voice came from beside me, and I jumped to the side in fright, faltering: "I beg...beg...for marriage..."

ah--!said it...

"Marriage proposal?" Toshizo Hijikata leaned slightly, and put his hands on his knees as close as possible to my eyes, "If you're in such a hurry, let's hurry up and hold the wedding ceremony."

"Okay!" I dropped the umbrella in my hand and threw myself into his arms, "Let's invite Hirasuke and Saito."

After some requests, Isamu Kondo agreed to arrange the wedding into the schedule, and the wedding dress that had been prepared earlier was also delivered and neatly folded and placed.

But this wedding was still held among a small number of people. Senior Ishikawa just shook his head at this, and did not stop him. Instead, as my elder brother, he was willing to attend.

This time I really experienced the feeling of waiting to be married.nervous?happy?Expectation... You can't explain the mixed emotions, you just feel that everything around here seems to be mixed with some strange colors.

The clouds in the sky will blush, and the green leaves will be shy.The water is sweet spring water, and the rice is pastry mixed with sugar.

The scorching sun is not hot, but the sun is his embrace.

Every day and every night, life has never been so slow and anxious.

By the time Hijikata Toshizo's eldest brother, sister and brother-in-law arrived in Kyoto, it was already mid-June.Just on the [-]th, the Xinxuan Group moved to Fudongtang Village.

It was Keisuke Yamanan who proposed changing the place a few months ago. In recent years, the weapon training in the Shinsengumi has disturbed the monks in Nishi Honganji.

For the sake of the wedding banquet, Keisuke Shannan proposed the idea of ​​relocating the site. Unexpectedly, Nishi Honganji Temple was in favor of it. After hearing what Keisuke Shannan said many months ago, he made preparations in Fudodo Village and established a The chic residence is a gift, everything you need is available, and the decoration is gorgeous. It is a residence that can be placed on the same level as a daimyo residence.

Isamu Kondo was very happy. After entertaining Toshizo Hijikata's family and relatives from Tama, he said that he wanted this happy event to be completed as soon as possible.I looked at Toshizo Hijikata and nodded, then knelt down and asked for invitation to Hisuke and Saito.Isamu Kondo did not hesitate as I imagined, but readily agreed.

Invitations are issued and banquets are organized.By the time everything was ready, it was already July.According to the selected auspicious day, on July [-]th of the third year of Qingying, I wore a three-layer "Bai Wugou" dress and sat beside Hijikata Toshizo.

This dress called "Bai Wugou" means that a woman will wash away some bad personalities before she gets married, become a blank sheet of paper, and become a perfect new member of her husband's family.

Solemn, silent.Except for the occasional glance at the increasingly handsome Hijikata Toshizo next to him, which changed the mood of a girl for a while, this Japanese-style wedding seemed too dull to me.

Amidst the melodious music, I looked at Hijikata Toshizo's older sister from a distance. She was a bright and charming woman who looked very similar to Hijikata Toshizo, especially those purple eyes.Sitting next to her is Hijikata Toshizo's older brother, who is very talented and well-known in Tama, but his eyes are not like ordinary people, which is regrettable.

Looking over there, it is Isamu Kondo's wife Achang and daughter Qiongzi.Qiongzi was born juicy, and the older she gets, the more she resembles her mother, making people want to love her when they see her.

Turning your head, the other side is the members of the Shinsengumi.Hirasuke was sitting between Shin Yachizuru at this time, and when he saw me looking at him, he gave a big smile.Get closer to me, and you can see Saito, with his eyes lowered, still indifferent.

The wine dish was brought out, and I came back to my senses, picked up one of them as Ah Chang told me, and exchanged it with Hijikata Toshizo for a drink.This is called the three-offering ceremony, where three cups are exchanged, and each time three cups are exchanged, a total of nine cups.

In front of Hijikata Toshizo's family, I tried to look elegant, but every time I exchanged the touch of the fingertips of the wine cup, my heart jumped with joy.After all, as long as this ceremony is completed, I will be his wife.

Thinking of this, his gaze happened to meet Toshizo Hijikata's eyes, his eyes were smiling, so gentle that it almost melted me.I lowered my eyes, and from today onwards, it seems to be Mrs. Hijikata.

"Please wait a moment." Seeing Senior Ishikawa standing up, I was startled. He smiled and nodded at me to indicate that I don't need to be nervous, "A Tong is my sister, I have to send my blessings." He said As he spoke, he clapped his hands, and then walked into a man wearing a mask and wearing a fancy dress from outside the hall, holding a brocade box in his hand.

This figure... Hijikata Suisan and I looked at each other in blank dismay.

"How could I not attend the wedding banquet of the two of you." Sure enough, even the voices were exactly the same.The man took off his mask, and it was clearly the face of Iemo Tokugawa.

"Big... my lord!" Isamu Kondo was startled.

Tokugawa Jiamao waved his hand: "Don't bark, talking nonsense will cause disaster." What he said was a bit of a joke and a bit serious, which made everyone who recognized him nervous, not knowing why People are inexplicable.

"It's my fault, I didn't introduce myself." Iemo Tokugawa smiled, "My name is Shigeru, and I have received favors from Hijikata and Ishikawa. This time, I am here to congratulate the two on their wedding."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but still did not dare to take a big breath.I smiled and tried to ease the atmosphere, "The gift that Mr. Maoshu and his brother gave together is really exciting. Don't keep it secret, can you open it and have a look?"

"I'm afraid you won't open it." Senior Ishikawa came over, and Iemo Tokugawa opened the box with a smile, facing me and Toshizo Hijikata.

It was a pair of silver rings, one thicker and the other thinner.The style of the two rings is simple, but the small engraved patterns make people sigh the exquisite craftsmanship.

"Hijikata-san, this is the rule of our hometown." Senior Ishikawa stepped forward, "In this way, I can hand her over to you with peace of mind."

"How?" Hijikata Toishan nodded.

"Wear each other's rings for each other, this is the symbol of the oath." Senior Ishikawa said, took the ring from Tokugawa Iemo, walked up to me and Hijikata Toshizo and knelt on one knee, "Pain and disease, bear together, support each other ,never separate."

"I am willing." I picked up the larger ring, and said softly to Toshizo Hijikata, "I would like to be with you forever in life, old age, sickness and death." I took his left hand and put the ring on his ring finger.

Hijikata Suisan immediately picked up the ring and put it on my finger, "There is nothing that can stop me from protecting you. I will never leave you in this life and the next."
