Love Like The Galaxy.

Chapter 65

In the early morning of the next day, Cheng Shi sent someone to the Chengmen Weisuo to take leave. After thinking about it, he also took leave for Lou Taipu, and then went to Lou's house to inform him. Finally, he and his wife were slowly grooming. Formal wear.

Mrs. Xiao saw her husband couldn't restrain the corners of his mouth, and tightened his belt forcefully: "Tighten your face, today we are going to retire, not to receive a reward."

Cheng Shi touched the waistline that had been loose recently . , whispered: "After hearing Cheng Shun's report for the past two days, you are not happy! Hes... You are gentle, especially yesterday, yesterday! The two most outstanding sons in the capital city are both in our daughters. It 's in the bowl!"

"Why do you speak so nasty." Mrs. Xiao put more force on her hand, "After the Lou family this time, we must be more careful about the marriage of our children, so as not to be laughed at."

"Pretend, then pretend! I don't know who was the one who couldn't fall asleep last night? Hey, you used to worry about whether you could marry or marry, but now it seems to be unfounded!"

Mrs. Xiao said, "I can tell you, in the days to come, no matter who When you come to propose a marriage, give me stability, don't be like the Lou family, and agree with a white face, as if I haven't seen a marriage proposal in three lifetimes."

Thinking of the future husband-in-law candidate, Father Cheng's face was blushing. He wiped the lard: "Hey, when did you say someone would come to propose? I bet within half a month. Also, who do you think will come first?"

"Don't talk nonsense." Mrs. Xiao said, "Just talking to Lou We have to wait for two months for the family to retire from relatives. It seems that we already have a candidate for a husband-in-law. As for the candidate...I prefer Yuan Shanjian..."

"Huh? Why not Ling Zisheng?" "Cheng Shi's thinking is very simple and rude, "He is even more powerful."

Mrs. Xiao pondered for a long time and sighed: "...I don't understand him, he is not even a bit popular in life, and he can't get into oil and salt. Now , if you are sure, then go out and talk to the curling up, and we will not come to propose marriage, let's see what will happen to the curling."

Cheng Shi immediately persuaded: "This is impossible to say, if we are self-indulgent, don't hurt. It's a joyous time. That's all, maybe you and I thought too much, and they didn't plan to get married at all, so they just helped."

Therefore, when the husband and wife appeared in the Lou's house, they both had a heavy and solemn look, and the Shao Shang, who was kneeling behind him with a sluggish head and a head, thought it was a funeral.

Today, the main hall of Lou's house is closed, and in the center of the house sits Lou Taipu and Cheng Shi. It was Mrs. Lou Er and Lou Yao, and the first and second ladies knelt down a little further away.

Cheng Shi made it clear that he meant to retire in a few words, Lou Yao became anxious when he heard it, and hurriedly said: "Young Shang, yesterday was fine, why are you today... just... I sent someone to you last night. Home, but the maid said you should rest."

Shao Shang's eyes were red and swollen, and she felt that all the tears that should have flowed last night, she is full of humor now: "It was just past noon when I boarded the He family carriage yesterday, As a result, you only came to me at night, if An Chengjun has the intention to harm me, then she will be able to destroy the corpse, and there will be no evidence of death, then your uncle Lou Tai servant does not need to take leave today."

Lou Da Shao and Mrs. Lou wanted to laugh and did not dare to laugh . , the second young lady shook her head and smiled, the second lady of Lou was at a loss; Only Lou Yao was speechless: "No, no, no..." He thought that the Young Chamber of Commerce would come to tell him immediately after the incident, but there was no news until the evening.

Cheng Shi turned his head to look at Lou Taipu, only to see Lou Taipu shook his head and sighed, his face was somber, and he said nothing.

In his life, he hated the death of a scholar the most, and he immediately went to the trump card: "If the servant doesn't speak, I will go out today when I leave the Lou's house. Our Cheng family has already come to the house to withdraw from our relationship, but the Lou's family will not agree anyway. , I will not agree!"

Lou Tai servant was shocked: "Ah..." Mrs. Lou excitedly said: "Cheng Xiaowei is careful!"

"That is to agree to withdraw from relatives." Cheng Shi said, "Then hurry up and return the Self-confidence. I brought Wending's mutton fat jade today. Isn't my Jinhulou Juncheng back to the capital? Take it out. Tear up the engagement documents of the two families a few times, and it will be over. ."

This time, even Mrs. Lou didn't know what to say, and the audience fell into an awkward silence. Although they had been prepared, the Cheng family acted so neatly that everyone in the Lou family didn't know what to do.

Still, Young Master Lou had a clear theme, and hurriedly asked: "Shao Shang, what's the matter, didn't you say that as long as I don't speak back, you won't back down?"

Shao Shang said blankly, "You There are two answers to this question. To make a long story short, my parents and my mother are grateful for the loyal ministers and good generals who fought for the country until the family was destroyed, so the Cheng family is determined to fulfill the last words of General He."

After saying this, everyone in the Lou family stared blankly. She, especially Mrs. Lou - wasn't this what she just said a few days ago? It also drew you a sneer.

The second young lady of Lou smiled and said, "Miss Cheng is very righteous, she sacrifices herself and obeys the righteousness, which is really admirable."

"Second sister-in-law!" Lou Yao shouted.

Mrs. Lou Er didn't lift her eyelids: "Why, what is wrong with Mrs. Cheng, or do you really want a few brothers to divorce their wives and marry another."

Cheng Yao's face turned red, and then turned from red to purple. . He was not good at words, and at this time, the big reason was with the other party, and he couldn't say anything more, so he could only be in a hurry.

Mrs. Xiao's eyes swept across everyone's faces, and she simply said: "Since there is no objection on both sides, hurry up to return the token and tear up the marriage certificate."

Mrs. Lou Er also cried softly: "Ayao, listen to everyone. , I also like Shaoshang, but...but..."

"But the situation is like this, Ayao, you have to be obedient!" Mrs. Lou said oppressively.

Lou Yao froze on the ground for a long time, suddenly stood up and shouted angrily: "I won't quit my relatives, I won't! You have used a lot of great truths to deceive me since you were young. If you want to do this, you will be benevolent and righteous. If you want to do that. It's a repayment, but the whole family is wronged only by me, only me! You can either watch the fire from the other side, or say something that doesn't hurt. Me, why?!"

After hearing this, Mrs. Lou Er had already covered her face and cried and fell to the ground. Mrs. Lou had a displeased face, and Mrs. Lou sighed and turned her back. Cheng Shi and Mrs. Xiao glanced at each other, unwilling to intervene in Lou's private affairs. To put it in a helpless way, in a family like Lou, whether the marriage is successful or not depends only on the meaning of the elders, how can the children and grandchildren betray.

Shao Shang looked at the young man's angry and aggrieved face, and laughed, "Ayao, are your legs okay?"

Lou Yao was stunned for a moment, his anger was restrained for a while, and he said embarrassingly: "Actually, I was able to stand up long ago, but the doctor told me to take care of it more. For a few days, I even asked someone to carry it."

Shao Shang was not without sadness: "This is very good, An Chengjun must be hot and filial to get married, and then your legs and feet will be agile."

"You You..." Lou Yao became anxious again.

Shaoshang said softly: "Ayao, you can listen to what I have to say. Well, you sit down first, then let's talk briefly..."

Seeing Lou Yao suppressed his anger and sat down slowly, she spoke. : "In the past few months, we have talked about everything. You tell me that although you don't like An Chengjun, General He is very kind to you. You have loved martial arts since you were a child, and no one in the Lou family can lead you. No matter how busy the general is, he is always willing to take the time to teach you. It can be said that he is both a teacher and a father. You really respect and love him, right or not? Over the years, you have tolerated He Zhaojun, partly because of kindness, and the other half because of General He's face Come on."

Lou Yao's anger subsided slightly, and he remained silent.

Shaoshang continued: "There is also the fifth son of the He family. He is only two years older than you. Since childhood, he has taken you to fish and shoot birds, and walk around. Your first small bamboo bow was made for you by him. It's like something I like, I've kept it so far. But..."

She changed her tone, "But do you know that when Fifth Young Master He brought a team of scouts to report the news, he was overturned by the rebels of the Xiao family, and then I was trampled into flesh by a chaotic horse!"

Lou Tai servant sighed and turned his head in tears. He knew about this, but the family members didn't know it. Mrs. Lou's mother-in-law and her daughter-in-law shrank back in horror, and Mrs. Lou Er immediately cried. Only Mrs. Lou Er was calm, but she couldn't help lowering her head to wipe her tears.

Lou Yao stared at her big eyes, and she burst into tears.

"I have asked my second brother carefully. Not only the fifth son died tragically, but also the eldest son and the fourth son. Life and death on the battlefield are common occurrences, but in order to provoke General He out of the city, the rebels actually took the corpses of the two sons. They dragged their horses and ran around the city, and in the end they even cut off their heads and put them on the tip of their spears to show off their might. When you were a child, didn't the eldest son always put you on your shoulders to pick fruit, you were taught by the fourth son to ride horses. But they are dead without a whole corpse!"

Lou Yao was already in tears. The rest of the female family members wept softly, and even Cheng Shi and Mrs. Xiao couldn't bear to turn around and sigh.

"...Second son was pierced by several arrows at the top of the city. It dragged on for a day and a night, but he couldn't make it through. When the third son led the reinforcements back, he collapsed and died in battle..." Shaoshang unconsciously became wet again Eye sockets, "Second son's wife was pregnant with Liujia, and was killed by a brutal traitor's sharp blade. The eldest son's wife stood at the top of the city and watched his son-in-law die. Now she is crazy and stupid. Time can be good. Ayao, you told me that the glutinous rice cakes made by the first young lady of the He family are the best, and the second young lady can make sweet rice wine... But they, even they..."

He Lou and the two clansmen It is the good of the Tong family. Many people are just a name to the Cheng family, but they are living memories of the Lou family. The voice and smile are still there, but the people are gone. This time, Mrs. Lou was crying without pretense, hugging her daughter-in-law and covering her mouth and howling silently; Mrs. Lou cried out loud and fell into the arms of the second young lady.

Lou Yao seemed to be a stone statue carved out of salt rock, motionless, and his eyes were dry.

"Ayao, when we were in Huaxian, we saw the tragic state of being tortured by soldiers, the mass graves where crows danced, and the orphans and widows who cried without tears. Then you said that a man should protect the common people. Only Zhou Quan can look up to the world. Do you know that this time, the people of Fengyi County are not like Hua County, and General He is such a man..."

Shaoshang said, and cried himself: "Ayao, I too I feel sorry for you, I said it nicely, but you are the one who married He Zhaojun. If only I could marry her for you!"

"Don't talk about it." Lou Yao finally changed his expression and smiled with tears in his eyes. , "Shao Shang, you are not sorry for me. But you are right. I keep saying that I want to be a good man who protects the living people, but I refuse to accept such a little grievance. Isn't it ridiculous."

"Ayao, you are just wronged for a while, but don't be wronged for the rest of your life." Shao Shang wiped away his tears.

"I, can I...?" Lou Yao was stunned with tears.

"Of course you can! After getting married, you will not only be He Zhaojun's husband-in-law, but also her brother and her support! You have to feel sorry for her and teach her that you can't let her be wrong, she will lose her temper and be pretentious. , you can't swallow your voice like you used to..." Shao Shang said loudly, this is what she said from the bottom of her heart.

"I can teach her." Lou Yao seemed to be in a new state in front of him, "If she is messing around again, I... I will catch her and go to General He Ling and ask..."

Shao Shang walked forward a few steps on his knees and said earnestly, "Exactly! If you don't understand something, just ask the second young lady. What's wrong with your sister-in-law!"

Lou second young lady gave Shaoshang a moved look. Seeing this scene, Lou Taipu felt a pity in his heart.

Shao Shang glanced sideways at Mrs. Lou, and suddenly said again: "Ayao, don't be afraid of quarrels, as long as the truth is what you are afraid of, you have to see who is full and takes care of the affairs in your room. "..."

Cheng Shi and Mrs. Lou didn't quite understand these words, but the female family members present knew it.

This overly simple resignation ceremony ended with Lou Yao's hissing and crying. After crying, he seemed to have grown up in an instant. Lou Yao's expression was calm as he watched the golden tiger and jade jade be handed over and the silk silk with the marriage letter written on it was torn into two pieces.

When the three of the Cheng family left, he was still able to smile: "Uncle Cheng, Aunt Cheng, in the future, I will ask a few brothers for advice, so you can treat me as my own son and nephew."

Cheng Shi's heart softened, and he clicked nod.

Mrs. Xiao said softly: "You and An Chengjun will have a good time in the future. She is lonely now, watching her teeth and dancing claws, but she is actually pitiful. You can treat her with courtesy and heart. You can't go wrong."

Lou Yao bowed his body. After agreeing, he turned his head and said, "Shao Shang, you can call me brother from now on."

Shao Shang rubbed his increasingly red and swollen eyes and rolled his eyes: "Stop doing this, it's too early to want to be my brother. Woolen cloth!"

Lou Yao laughed and burst into tears. Shaoshang felt sad and couldn't help shedding a few more tears.

The two families said goodbye. Although this was a complete and successful resignation, the three Cheng family members were not happy.

When she returned to Cheng Mansion, Cheng Cha had already prepared her lunch. The Cheng family brothers all knew what their parents and younger sister were doing this morning, and they all took leave to stay at home at this time.

Everyone gathered in the main hall to eat silently. Cheng Shi drank the wine in one gulp and said loudly, "...From now on, the Lou family will have nothing to do with the curls . It's over! Did you hear it?" The three brothers all nodded their heads, but only the first mother Cheng said angrily: "What is this world, a good marriage is forced to quit!"

Hu Li hurriedly stepped forward to comfort: "Oh, old lady, don't talk about it, this marriage is cancelled. Now, the madam and the little girl are more sad than anyone else. Didn't the young masters tell you the truth?"

Mother Cheng pushed Hu Yu away and said loudly, "What is the truth, how much is it worth? A piece of money, the treasure of the Lou family is the real thing! You have returned such a good marriage for the sake of your reputation. Is it worth it? I think you are a fool to be an official, the grain in the barn, the cash box The money you have earned, the fields under your feet, these are the only things that matter..."

Mother Cheng complained loudly above, chattering endlessly, and the children below ate quietly without interrupting a word.

Cheng Shi listened to the old lady's more and more talk, and couldn't help but say: "Mum, what are you talking about..." Before the

words were finished, the servants hurriedly rushed to report that someone came from the

palace and said they wanted to Xuan summoned Cheng Shi and his wife and Shao Shang to enter the palace, and Xiao Huangmen, who announced the decree, was already waiting in the front yard.

Mrs. Xiao's chopsticks clacked and fell on the food table, and went to see her daughter in a panic.

Shao Shang was still puzzled and sat blankly.
