stranded

For the first time, Chen Jincheng asked Yang Xiaoyun when she would go to Chenghuang Temple to burn incense and worship Buddha.

Yang Xiaoyun has always had the habit of going to the temple to worship on the first day of every month. Chen Jincheng counted the days, the first day of the new year, today is only the eighth day.

Yang Xiaoyun saw that it was rare for him to come to get close to her, so she asked, "Why does Chengcheng want to go to the temple?" She calculated the date, and the fifteenth day of this month happened to be the Ghost Festival, so it was okay to go and add a stick of incense.

Naturally, it was impossible for Chen Jincheng to say that he was going to seek marriage, so he thought for a while: "Go and pray."

Yang Xiaoyun knew that Chen Jincheng would never forget her biological mother, which was why she had not been recognized by him for nearly seven years since she came to this family.

She ordered the servants to do the shopping, saying that she would go to the Town God's Temple on the fifteenth day of this month.

Then Chen Jincheng spent a week thinking about whether or not Gu Shan should go with him, and finally he chose whether or not.

Town God's Temple will have patrol ceremonies on Ching Ming Festival, Zhongyuan Festival and Xiayuan Festival. Today happened to happen, and the road to Town God's Temple was blocked.

Chen Jincheng asked, "Is the Town God's Temple always this lively?"

The surroundings were too noisy, so Yang Xiaoyun had no choice but to whisper to Chen Jincheng, "Today, the City God happened to be on tour, and there was a lot of battle."

The City God's tour lasted for nearly an hour, and Chen Jincheng suspected that it was a circle around the entire city of Nanjing. By the time they entered the City God Temple, it was almost noon.

Yang Xiaoyun and Aunt Li who accompanied her went to light incense candles and burn paper money, while Chen Jincheng went shopping.

"Hey! There is a marriage tree ahead!" shouted the two little girls next to him.

Chen Jincheng turned his head and saw that it was a fairly lush locust tree. After all, this Town God's Temple was quite old. Although the locust tree was not as old as a thousand-year-old locust tree, it was at least a few hundred years old.There were many red ropes hanging from the branches of the locust tree, and small wooden signs were tied to the ends of the ropes. When the wind blew, Kazuki's small wooden signs would shake.

Chen Jincheng thought over and over again, and went to find the Taoist priest sitting under the tree.

"This benefactor, you want to count the marriage?" The Taoist stroked his beard. "The donor is still young, why should he be in such a hurry?"

Chen Jincheng was repeatedly denied by what he said: "I'm not in a hurry, just calculate casually, calculate casually."

Is it useful to be anxious? It is useless.Gu Shan was always too lazy to talk to him, if his father was not still working in the Chen family, Gu Shan would have patted his ass and left long ago.

The Taoist stroked his beard with one hand, pinched his fingers with the other and calculated for a while, then said, "Do you know, my little benefactor, that you are the one who killed your wife?"

"...restraining his wife?" Chen Jincheng felt a little vigilant. Could it be that the Taoist priest was trying to deceive him.

The Taoist calculated again and was sure that he was not wrong: "Little benefactor, I don't know what to say when I am poor. By good fortune."

"Isn't it right to say it, didn't you say it all, but thank you, Taoist priest, for restraining my wife..." Chen Jincheng smiled, "In the future, if the family introduces me to this young lady who is well-matched, I will say that I am good against my wife." Already." What a good shield.

In the end, he didn't get the marriage, and he calculated a lot of what he had, so he might as well make a wish, hoping that Gu Shan could miss him and have a good impression of him.

He waited for her at the place where he had made an appointment with Yang Xiaoyun, and saw her chatting with other people.

Yang Xiaoyun saw Chen Jincheng and waved her hand: "Chengcheng, this way."

Yang Xiaoyun pulled him and introduced to the people in front of her: "This is Chen Jincheng." Then she introduced to Chen Jincheng one by one, "This is your Aunt Song, and this is her daughter Song Shitong."

"Oh, Cheng Cheng is so big, I remember he was so young when I saw him last time." Mrs. Song compared her waist, "In a blink of an eye, he is already so tall."

Chen Jincheng didn't have much impression of this Mrs. Song. She met too many people when she was a child, so she couldn't remember clearly after that. But her husband, Song Zhishu, was Chen Jinsong's partner for a long time. He met at the chamber of commerce. A person whose name has nothing to do with him is fat and fat, and he is in charge of the water transportation at the pier here.

Chen Jincheng called Aunt Song, and then smiled at Song Shitong.

Seeing him smiling at her, Song Shitong smiled back at him as a greeting.

Chen Jincheng thought to himself, it would be interesting for this Song family to have a name, one book and one poem, but his daughter is different from him, she really seems to be well-educated.

He motioned to Aunt Li to take Yang Xiaoyun home: "Aunt Song, Miss Song, it's getting late, let's talk next time."

Along the way, Yang Xiaoyun kept saying: "Chengcheng, what do you think of the girl from the Song family? I think Shitong is quite educated and good-looking."

"I remember she is one year younger than me." Chen Jincheng frowned, "I'm only fourteen, I haven't reached the age to talk about marriage."

Yang Xiaoyun felt that it was a big deal: "The marriage can be settled first, and the banquet can wait."

"Forget it, Aunt Yang." Chen Jincheng thought it was a coincidence that the life-killing of his wife just calculated can be used now, "I just forgot it, the Taoist priest of the City God Temple said that I would kill my wife, so don't delay other good girls gone."

The first time Chen Jincheng called her Aunt Yang, Yang Xiaoyun was a little surprised: "Aunt Yang is also fine, you can call her whatever you want... Wait, wife?"

She chuckled lightly: "Chengcheng, just listen to these things, don't take them seriously."

Chen Jincheng insisted: "What if he really beats his wife, I don't think the priest seems to be talking nonsense, otherwise he could stay in the Temple of the City God for so long?"

Yang Xiaoyun had nothing to say now: "You can tell your father about this, I have no control over it."

Chen Jinsong is still deliberating about this marriage. He just thinks that the Song family is not bad, and they happen to have a cooperative relationship. It was an accident to meet him in the Town God's Temple.She was afraid that Chen Jincheng would think that this was arranged on purpose by her: "Okay, let's not mention the matter of the wife's feud in the future, and Mama Li, you should pretend you didn't hear about it, so let's just let it go?"

Chen Jincheng didn't speak, he was thinking about what excuse he could find to stop this marriage.

If it was Chen Jinsong's intention, then Gu Shan's father should know about it, and Gu Shan might also know about it.Then... he would have no chance.

No, absolutely not.

During the meal, Chen Jincheng seemed absent-minded. He wanted to ask Gu Shanzhi if he knew about it, but he imagined the scene in his mind. A happy marriage lasts forever.

Chen Jincheng had a difficult time, it would be better not to know if he knew about it.

He simply pretended he didn't know, he didn't know, and Gu Shan didn't know either, so as to ease the relationship between himself and Gu Shan, and pray for a miracle to happen.

After thinking through these things, he felt like a big stone in his heart fell to the ground.

Yang Xiaoyun watched him wander for a while and come back to his soul for a while, and sighed.To be honest, she doesn't like this kind of thing like marriage very much. She also has a little contact with Western culture and thinks that children's feelings should be controlled by themselves, but she is not in charge of the Chen family's affairs, and she has to listen to them Chen Jinsong's.

However, since Chen Jincheng doesn't want to, then she should try to delay him for as long as possible.

Chen Jinsong heard about what happened to his wife and Mrs. Song in Chenghuang Temple, so he came to ask Yang Xiaoyun what he thought of Song Shitong the next day.

Yang Xiaoyun thought about it: "I just met once, so it's not good to judge others based on the first impression, and the marriage of two children must be seen by the two children themselves. Fourteen, don't rush this moment."

Chen Jinsong was afraid that Song Shitong would be taken by other families, Yang Xiaoyun said: "The Song family is not the only good girl in Nanjing City, sir, you are too impatient."

So the matter was shelved.

As a result, within a few days, Chen Jinsong did not look for Song Zhishu, but Song Zhishu came to him instead.

"Old Chen, my wife has been praising your family Jincheng to me, I don't, I can't help it, I just want to ask, is Jincheng married?" Song Zhishu was straightforward, implying that there was no In terms of marriage, it is better to consider our Song family.

Chen Jinsong thought of his wife's words a few days ago, and said tactfully: "I think the marriage still depends on the wishes of the two children. If Brother Song thinks that my Jincheng really suits your eyes, let the two children spend more time together." Set it down again, okay?"

The two heads of the family decided so.

After returning, Chen Jinsong said to Chen Jincheng: "If you have time recently, go out with that girl from the Song family and don't stay at home all the time."

Chen Jincheng glanced at Gu Shan, his expression was as usual.

He said: "The assignments that Mr. has assigned recently are quite difficult, and they may not be available."

Chen Jinsong said: "Then I will cancel all the affairs of the chamber of commerce for you, and you spend the time you planned to go to the chamber of commerce to accompany others."

A mountain is higher than a mountain.

Chen Jincheng didn't expect Chen Jinsong to cancel it as soon as he said it would be cancelled. He had no choice but to find a way to lower his image in Song Shitong's mind.

When the appointed time came, Chen Jincheng chose his clothes casually, and went out rather casually.

Because two people went out, they couldn't take Gu Shan with them. Chen Jincheng usually tidied up when he went out, but today he didn't want to tidy up at all.

It was supposed to be him and Gu Shan who went out together, Chen Jincheng was a little annoyed when he thought of this.

Yang Xiaoyun must have spoken for him. Chen Jincheng himself knew how difficult it was for his father to communicate. It would be great if he could arrange for himself to communicate with others first and not settle down directly. This shows that there is still room for maneuver.

Chen Jincheng looked back at Gu Shan reluctantly, but Gu Shan still looked the same, extremely indifferent, and he didn't say that he was going out to give him a treat.

Chen Jincheng called out, "Gu Shan!"

Gu Shan responded: "Master, what's the matter?"

"Are you going to the chamber of commerce today?" Logically speaking, he shouldn't have appeared at the Chen family without the teacher giving a lecture. Since he appeared, he must have something to do.

"Yes, the master asked me to accompany him to check the goods." Gu Shan replied.

Chen Jincheng gritted his teeth: "Then I'll go to the chamber of commerce to find you later."

"To check the goods, you should go to the warehouse or the dock." Gu Shan reminded, "Master, you don't know the way, so let's go shopping with Ms. Song."

The author has something to say:

Maybe this part of the Town God's Temple is a bit too outrageous, but just take a look at the text and don't take it too seriously
