Carrying the wrong sedan chair to marry the wrong wife

Bow your head and bow to thank you deeply, God wishes that the two hearts will not bear each other

The carriage drove to Sanqiao Street, Cheng Yi and Xu Jinwen broke up in the market, Cheng Yi ran all the way home.

The door of Cheng's house was closed tightly, Cheng Yi pushed the door open, and when he saw the scene inside, he froze at the door, as if he couldn't believe what he saw, he raised his hand and rubbed his eyes.

She never expected that Liniang would be at her home.

Liniang in the yard is very different from usual. At this moment, Liniang is wearing coarse clothes, bending over to feed the two chickens in the yard, with the purest smile on her face that is so glamorous.

When Liniang heard the sound of the door, she turned her head and saw the person at the door. She was also stunned. Since Cheng Yi went to Beijing, she was always thinking about it for some reason. I don't know if she likes this concern, but she doesn't deny that the only thing she thinks about day and night is the person in front of her.

Cheng Yi raised his legs and stepped over the threshold, walking towards Liniang step by step. At this time, Liniang had taken off her traditional blouse, and the jewelry on her head was only a wooden hairpin. There were a lot less things around her, but Cheng Yi felt that Liniang was Even more beautiful, without those decorations, Liniang's beauty is more pure, compared to the amorous feelings when they first met, Cheng Yi only felt that his heart was more moved.

Cheng Yi held his breath and walked up to Liniang and stood still, the eyes of the two flickered, as if they could read the yearning and affection from each other's eyes.

"I'm back." Liniang broke the silence and spoke slowly.

Cheng Yi was taken aback when he heard the words, and then couldn't help saying happily: "I'm back, I..."

"Ayi!!!" Cheng's mother lifted the quilt curtain, saw her daughter, and came out with a wooden shovel in unconcealed excitement, "Come and show my mother, I have been away from home for a long time, and I have lost weight."

Cheng Yi was touched by his mother, smiled awkwardly at Liniang, took off the burden on his shoulders, took out the paperwork from it, and handed it to his mother.

"Mom, I hit it."

Cheng's mother was speechless when she heard the words, and stared blankly at the imperial document in her daughter's hand. Cheng's mother put her trembling hand on the document and cried. How many years have the mother and daughter endured humiliation for this document.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, it's okay, your father's wish is about to come true, but, my Ayi, from now on you..." Mrs. Cheng stopped speaking abruptly, and some words still cannot be said to outsiders.

"The child will be more filial to his mother in the future." Cheng Yi knew the implication of her mother's words, she turned her head to look at Liniang, her future home has been settled.

Aunt Cheng wiped away her tears, and seeing Liniang beside her, she smiled embarrassedly and said, "Liniang is laughing."

Then he said to his daughter: "Ayi, when you went to Beijing to rush for the exam, it was Liniang who took care of you as your mother. Go and thank you."

Cheng Yi's heart warmed up, and he bowed to Liniang, but said: "Thank you, Liniang, for your affection."

Aunt Cheng was stunned when she heard the words, she felt that there was something wrong with this sentence, and there was nothing wrong with carefully tasting it.

"Mother, I'll take Liniang back first, and when I get back, I have something to say to my mother." Cheng Yi said it seriously, and Aunt Cheng was taken aback by seeing it, so serious, could it be for the sake of grievance?

"Okay, mother is waiting for you at home." After finishing speaking, Mrs. Cheng walked up to Liniang, took Liniang's hand and said, "Liniang, you play the pipa until midnight at night, and come over early in the morning to help me make it. The housework is really hard, go back and have a good rest, I will ask Ah Yi to invite you another day, the aunt should thank you very much."

"Ma'am, you're serious." Liniang murmured behind her blessing, "Ma'am, I'll go change first." Liniang glanced at Cheng Yi as she spoke, and entered Cheng's wing.

When she came out, Liniang had returned to her old attire, and after blessing Aunt Cheng, she walked out of Cheng's thatched house.

Cheng Yi quickly followed out.

After the two of them left, Mrs. Cheng sighed in her heart, she was someone from here, and Liniang suddenly came to help every day uncharacteristically, how could she not think about the reason.

Their house is barren, what can Liniang do with such diligence?The picture is nothing more than her 'son', if Ah Yi is really a son, she is willing to recognize Liniang as a daughter-in-law, this girl has a hard life, but a kind heart, wouldn't it be very happy to marry into the family and live a good life? But her Ah Yi is a girl, how can a girl marry a wife?They can't delay Liniang, if they delay, wouldn't Liniang be sold into a brothel?If this hope is blocked now, with Liniang's beauty, it is possible to become a concubine in a rich family.

At this time, the morning market in the street market had already started, Cheng Yi and Liniang walked slowly on the path.

Cheng Yi shook his arms, touched Liniang's hand with his fingers unintentionally, and carefully watched Liniang's expression with his eyes.

"What are you doing?" Liniang stopped and looked at Cheng Yi playfully.

"Think, let's go." Cheng Yi didn't hide his thoughts at all.

Liniang's face was full of peach blossoms, but after all, she had been to the vocal music workshop for a long time, and said angrily: "You are a scholar, don't you feel ashamed to say such things?"

Cheng Yi took a step closer and said: "Li Niang, we have been apart for a long time, and I miss you very much. There are still many things I want to say, but at this moment, I can't remember a single word." Cheng Yi also felt strange, at this moment Her mind didn't seem to be spinning, she really couldn't remember what she had thought about at night.

Liniang laughed when she heard the words: "Then go home and think about it, I'll be there just after crossing this street, there's no need to send it any further."

"Liniang." Cheng Yi was reluctant, this brief meeting with her was not enough.

"If the relationship lasts for a long time, how can it be day and night?" Liniang looked at Cheng Yi and said slowly.

Cheng Yi laughed when he heard this, and couldn't help but hugged Liniang in his arms: "I'll tell my mother about us when I get home, you wait for my good news."

"If you want me to wait, I'll wait. I hope that our hearts will not be equal." Liniang said slowly on Cheng Yi's shoulder. In Cheng Yi's arms, she couldn't help the deer in her heart jumping wildly. When people have expectations, their hearts will be delivered.

"No, no matter how willing you are to be responsible, how can you be willing to part with it? Don't worry, I will marry you into my family in a dignified manner." After Cheng Yi said this, he separated from Liniang slightly, raised his hand, and rubbed against Li Niang with the back of his hand. Mother's cheek, reluctantly said: "I'll go back first."

"En." Liniang replied, and the two parted ways in the alley.

Cheng Yi went home, Mrs. Cheng was waiting at the table, saw her daughter came back and said: "You're back? Sit down quickly, let's talk about the next complaint."

"Mother, before we talk about grievances, I want to talk to my mother about another matter." Cheng Yi pinched the robe in his hands, and it was a lie that he was not worried. She wanted to marry Liniang, but she was so afraid that her mother would not accept it.

"Oh, sit down and talk." Aunt Cheng was a little surprised.

Cheng Yi sat down, took a deep breath and said, "Mother, what do you think of Li Niang?"

"Hey, she's a good girl, but it's a pity she has a hard life." Mrs. Cheng nodded.

"Does mother like her?" Cheng Yi held his breath and looked at his mother.

"like."

"Boy, how about marrying her into the family?" Cheng Yi asked immediately.

Aunt Cheng just nodded her head, then stopped suddenly, and looked at her daughter in astonishment: "You, what did you just say?"

"Baby likes Liniang, Liniang also likes me, I want to marry her." Cheng Yi said very firmly.

"But, but you are not a man, how can you marry a wife?" Mrs. Cheng felt nonsense.

"But, the boy is not a boy, he is still a high school student." Cheng Yi felt that she had done what other men did, and she was not short of marrying a wife.

Mrs. Cheng choked on these words.

"But Liniang's good-looking girl thinks you are a man, so she likes you. If you marry her back, won't this ruin her life?" Aunt Cheng scolded.

"Mother, Liniang, she knows that I am a woman."

Aunt Cheng was taken aback when she heard the words: "I know you are a woman? When did it happen? You two girls are too deviant."

Cheng Yi was startled, her mother's reaction was worse than she expected.

"Mom, I already have fame and fame. After complaining, can I regain my status as a girl?"

Mrs. Cheng was silent.No, once someone finds out, it is a serious crime to deceive the emperor.

"Mother, I've been happy with Liniang for a long time, now I can't get married, let me marry you." Cheng Yi knelt down after saying that.

Aunt Cheng stared at her daughter, was stunned for a while and said, "Li Niang, she really wants to be with you even though she knows you are a woman?"

"Well, she is still waiting for me to marry her, mother, I can't break my promise, she is so good, my child doesn't want her to wait, so I can only kneel down and beg my mother to fulfill her promise."

Aunt Cheng was silent for a long time, then sighed: "So what if I can't be perfect? ​​Is there any other choice, mother? Li Niang is a good girl, and she cannot be a mother when she gets married. If you really want to marry, you have to treat her sincerely for the rest of your life."

Hearing this, Cheng Yi's expression was serious, and he nodded, "Thank you for your success, Liniang and I will respect and love each other."

Aunt Cheng was very upset, thinking that she was going to be a mother-in-law in this life, she hadn't recovered from this change, and seeing her daughter still kneeling, she raised her hand to help her up.

"It's just that the family has no money to redeem Liniang right now, and we don't know when the magistrate will clear up his wrongdoing and return to Nantong."

Cheng Yi heard the words and analyzed: "Lord Lu has been escorted to the capital, there must be news from the capital in ten and a half months, at most one month we should be able to submit a certificate to the yamen, and when the time comes to win back the property, naturally there will be money to redeem Liniang. "

"Then, Ayi, what are your plans during this period?"

"I want to go to a nearby school to find a job as a master, and I will make a living teaching and selling calligraphy and paintings." Cheng Yi said with a shy face, "Although I don't earn much, I can still earn enough to make ends meet. In the future, I will regain my family property in the future. , how can it be regarded as upper-middle class in Nantong."

Aunt Cheng nodded when she heard the words, and said: "Well, it would be in your mother's mind for you to become a wife, that is, neither of us mother and son are good at doing business, and if we take back the property, only the house and a few hundred acres of land are useful to us. I collect rent and money every year to live. As for the shops that fell into your uncle’s hands, we won’t be able to operate them after the sentence.

At the same time, in the prison, Shen Wenchang leaned on the wooden pillar and watched the mother and daughter in the cell eating.

"Wen Chang." Mrs. Lu called her affectionately, "You don't need to deliver food every meal, the food prepared by the cell boss is not bad."

"Mother-in-law, it's okay, I'm idle."

Lu Qingyi looked at Shen Wenchang and said, "Are you idle? Didn't your father preach after you came home?"

"No, I haven't gone home yet." Shen Wenchang curled his lips, "Going back will inevitably lead to bruises. It's winter, so it's slow to heal. I'm afraid of pain."

Mrs. Lu heard the words: "I have to go back. It's been a day, and your father's anger should have calmed down a lot. Let's go back today, lest they worry."

"Yeah, we have to tell your family about our affairs." Lu Qingyi echoed.

Shen Wenchang nodded when he heard the words, stayed in the prison for a while, and was urged to leave by his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Shen Wenchang looked up at the sun, hoping that she could see the sun tomorrow after she went back, because she was afraid that she would be beaten so badly that she wouldn't be able to get out of bed tomorrow.
