Chapter 9 The Chen Family's Marriage
When I returned to the inn, I found that the junior sister was not there, so I went downstairs to ask the waiter sister where she was going.
"Sorry, I'm too busy just now and didn't see that girl." The waiter named Fugui shook his head with a rag.
"Okay." I nodded, planning to go out and take a look.
"Customer, I saw that the girl seemed to have talked to our boss lady for a few words. You can go and ask our boss lady." Fugui called me and thought for a while and said.
"Okay." I nodded, and then looked for his guidance to find the boss lady who was still charming.
"I don't know what this young man is looking for me?" The proprietress sat on the couch, looking at me with a smile.
"I would like to ask if the boss lady knows where my junior sister is going." I asked straight to the point.
"It turns out to be a senior brother and sister... Your junior sister asked me if there was a lively place here. I pointed to a place casually and asked her to play. I guess she would come back in the afternoon." As she said, she poured tea, and her smile made me feel a little scared.
"Where?" I asked after reconciling my thoughts.
"Anhelou, there are probably many guests in Chen Yuanwai's son's marriage today, so I just mentioned it casually." She took a sip of tea and raised her eyes.
"Okay, thank you." I nodded and thanked me, turned around and prepared to leave.
"Young Master Luo, the right and wrong in the South is not something we can predict, and you are willing to do it yourself." She said indifferently.
I paused for a moment, and heard the sound of the teacup falling back to the table, and then said, "As long as you don't interfere, you can naturally protect yourself."
Perhaps this seemingly unintentional advice is also full of tangles behind it, but some things cannot be stopped by just a warning.
The junior sister has always been curious about getting married, so I found her at Chen Yuanwai's mansion.
"Senior brother, senior brother, are you here to see you for a marriage?" The youngest sister held my hand and I sighed. The words I wanted to scold her were swallowed into her stomach.
"Mr. Chen is really rich. It is said that he has invited tourists from all over the countryside to witness his son's marriage." The junior sister pulled me and said what she had just found out.
information.
"Your uncle is richer." I looked at her and thought of the treasures in the room full of Youchen, and couldn't help but sigh.
"My uncle is the national teacher, and he received the salary from the court and the emperor's reward. But Chen Yuanwai is just a wealthy businessman, how could he have so much money?" the junior sister retorted with her eyes.
"We are rich enough to compete with a country. I guess we are talking about businessmen like him!" I lowered my eyes.
"Yes, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. But senior brother, the young master of Chen Yuanwai's family, is very beautiful. I don't know if the bride looks like a mate with him." The young sister touched her chin and said curiously.
"What does it have to do with you if you are not worthy? You are not marrying someone's bride." I looked at her and said with some amusement.
"Oh, that's right." The junior sister looked at the groom who was greeting the guest and nodded.
"You've finished reading it, we should leave too!" I glanced at my junior sister. The Hongdou incident had already found the answer. I should have set off immediately, but now I'm delaying the marriage.
"Have you heard that before the Chen family married the bride again, he had made a lifelong appointment with a girl, but now he has misled the girl and married another beautiful lady himself." A man standing not far away said whispering.
Rather than saying it was a whisper, I just didn't dare to count my voice, but the people around me could hear it clearly.
"I have heard of this a little, but Mr. Chen has a childhood sweetheart. If he talks about it, the girl would just take away her love. After all, she is a pitiful person." Another person echoed.
"I don't know that Mr. Chen has such a romantic past."
Listening to their discussion, I couldn't help but look at the groom who got married today. The groom is indeed as beautiful as the junior sister said, but there are fewer things, but her eyebrows and eyes are smiling, and she doesn't look like she doesn't like she is displeased in her heart.
I suddenly wanted to stay and see the follow-up of the marriage.
"Senior brother, let's stay and see the bride get married before leaving!" The youngest sister pulled the corner of my clothes and said with a pleasing smile.
"Okay." I nodded, followed the junior sister to the guest room, and watched the couple get married.
The bride covered her red veil, supported by the groom, and appeared in lotus steps.
This is a girl with good figure, but she seems a little timid, her jade hands are clenched into fists, but then the groom holds her hand.
"Do you say it's really what they said?" The junior sister looked at the groom and the bride, and couldn't help but think of the topics the men were talking about.
"I don't know, I guess I will know tomorrow whether the bride is a childhood sweetheart or the girl who snatches her love from a sword." I remembered that Song Qi mentioned that the red veil was sent to the bridal chamber on the wedding day, and the groom opened it.
"Then should we stay until tomorrow?" The junior sister looked at me excitedly.
"No, we will set off for Daliang in the afternoon." I shook my head and refused.
"Okay!" Although I was rejected, fortunately, the junior sister didn't pay much attention to this matter.
But something unexpected happened. After the church, Mr. Chen suddenly knelt down on the ground while Mr. Chen, Mr. Chen and the bride's parents were still smiling.
Then there was an uproar and everyone looked at the groom.
"Father, it was my son who was unfilial, which disappointed my father and Mei Fu. Today, in front of the people of the town and the guests, my son did not want to go against his sincerity and did not do anything wrong." Mr. Chen had long lost the smile he had greeted the guests before, and a handsome face was tense, but I saw the desperate determination on his face.
"Rareless!" Chen Yuanwai's face, which was originally smiling, suddenly lost his smile.
"My father asked me before, what is the responsibility? I said I was taking on everything in the family and I could give up everything for the family. That sentence was lying to my father and myself. I could give up fame and fortune for the family and myself, but I couldn't give up the three emotions and six desires." Mr. Chen looked at his angry father unmoved at all. For him, his father had given him everything since he was a child and put interests first, but one day he found that he could give up his identity for her. Does that mean that she is more important than interests? He didn't understand, so he asked his father he always admired, but when his father asked him back, he said the goal he had remembered since childhood, and suddenly found that he was unable to do so.
"Three emotions and six desires? It's ridiculous! How can my Chen family give you such a bad boy? You don't have money, how can you give her happiness? Will she still love you?" Chen Yuanwai smiled contemptuously.
"..." Mr. Chen did not answer, but his expression did not change.
"You are like your mother, you don't know what's wrong, you don't know how high the sky is! " Chen Yuanwai said coldly.
"That's because you are incompetent. I will return everything you gave me as the son of the Chen family. I will no longer let others laugh at you. Mr. Chen will let your wife die of illness because of her incompetence." After Mr. Chen said that, he stood up and pulled the bride who was standing aside and turned around and left.
The moment he turned around, the red veil fell to the ground, revealing the bride's pretty appearance.
I watched the farce end and pulled my junior sister away.
I asked the junior sister to go back to the inn to pack my luggage first, and then I followed Mr. Chen to chase after him.
Finally I found their place in a remote alley.
The door of the yard was still a false cover. I knocked it twice and found that no one paid attention to me, so I entered the yard.
"Who are you looking for?" Mr. Chen changed into plain clothes and asked at me.
"I'm looking for Mr. Chen." I looked at him directly.
"What's wrong with you?" Mr. Chen looked at me and asked.
"I forgot to introduce it. I want to discuss a business with Mr. Chen in Xia Luo Xiansheng."
