"Zi Boxian nephew, this is a rule set by the ancestors of the eight great families, and we will follow the will of the ancestors, but we dare not modify it ourselves.Moreover, Feng Xiannu is the immortal maid who serves the ancestors with filial piety on behalf of the eight major families, and it is not up to us to decide. ”"yes, yes.Zi Boxian nephew, you are an outsider, and it is inconvenient for you to participate in the internal affairs of our family. ”"Yes, yes, nephew, please be careful!
Be careful!
”A call came out of Patriarch Mo's mouth, and was supported by the seven patriarchs in unison, even if there was a disagreement, it could only be stopped."
Hehe, Uncle Zi is here to confess to the patriarchs.I was young, and I had never seen such a grand battle, so I couldn't help but be more curious.If there is any inappropriate language, please forgive the patriarchs and lords. ”The familiar male voice apologized humbly, and the patriarchs said magnanimously, "It's not in the way", "The child is ignorant, I can't wait to care about you......
And so on and so forth.Through a curtain, the ladies in the warm pavilion all listened to it, and they also knew that there was no possibility of changing their minds after choosing Li Xianyin.Some people are happy and some are worried, each with a ghost.Mrs.
Li Yan looked at the begonia standing quietly on the side, and her heart finally fell.Secretly relieved, glad that the little girl she liked was not chosen, otherwise it would really make her feel distressed to death.Li Haitang felt a faint bitterness in her heart, she peeked at Li Xianyin, who was covering her mouth and holding back her crying, thinking that she was not chosen, how would she face her angry father when she returned home?
Patriarch Li's wife instructed the old sister-in-law beside her: "Sister-in-law Wang, you send them out."
Let their mothers take them home as soon as possible, and don't stay outside the ancestral hall to attract attention. ”Mrs.
Li Yan glanced at the begonia and said, "Madam, let me personally lead it out." ”Mrs.
Li pondered, and bowed her jaw: "Okay."
Go and come back quickly, I'll be waiting for you in the backyard. ”"Yes."
Mrs.
Li Yan Fuli, with Haitang's hand, led the other six girls from the corner gate of the backyard into the East Sandwich Road, and sent them to the small cross courtyard between Yansheng Hall and Longfu Family Temple, where the mothers of the selected girls were gathered to wait.Li Haitang was held by Mrs.
Li Yan, and before she stepped into the courtyard, she saw her anxiously waiting mother, Yan."
Mother.""
Begonia!"
Seeing that his daughter came back safely, Yan cried with joy, hugged Haitang excitedly and cried loudly, and couldn't care to see who the woman holding her daughter's hand was.The mother cried sadly, and Li Haitang also choked up and cried, hugged her mother tightly, and whispered: "Mother, I'm back."
Mother, I wasn't chosen.Mother, don't worry, I'm fine. ”The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried like tears, and Mrs.
Li Yan was also moved to wipe away her tears, and comforted with a smile: "The child is not selected, just cry, don't hurt your body." ”It's true that Fu Bo was not selected, so he has a life to live to old age.The daughter of the Li Chang family is deeply blessed, and she was selected to enjoy five years of glory and wealth, and then she was sacrificed to her ancestors as a living sacrifice, which is really a blessing and a curse.Li Haitang patted Yan's back to help smooth out, wiped her mother's tears with her sleeve, and said, "Mother, this is Mrs.
Li Yan, who had the grace of protecting her daughter before, and she was also very protective of her daughter just now." ”"Mrs.
Li Yan is very kind, the little woman has kowtowed to you."
Yan knelt down and kowtowed, and Li Haitang also knelt down."
Hurry up.I see that your daughter is very likable, and I want to find someone to go to your house tomorrow, and I want Begonia to come into the house and serve with me. ”Mrs.
Li Yan looked at Haitang lovingly and said, "She is only ten years old this year, and she is a girl from her own clan who has served Miss Mo to put on makeup and change clothes.Learn the rules by my side for a few years, and when the age of marriage is reached, I will be the master of choosing a good mother-in-law for her, Begonia Niang, what do you think?
”"Ouch!
Mrs.
Dae, being able to look at my begonias is a blessing that she has cultivated for ten lifetimes.The little woman bows to the lady for her grace!
May life and life be driven by cattle and horses for Mrs. ”"Hurry up.Don't kneel. ”Mrs.
Li Yan asked the accompanying little maid to help the mother and daughter up, and looked at Li Haitang, "You go home with your mother first to clean up, and I will send someone to pick you up tomorrow." ”Li Haitang blessed the gift, lowered his eyes and said, "Mrs.
Xie." ”"Come on, go home with your mother."
Mrs.
Li Yan waved her hand and went back with the two little maids.In the small courtyard with bright candles, some people are happy and some are worried; Some wept with joy because their daughter had returned safely, and some wept with sorrow because their daughter was chosen.Seeing that her daughter did not come back, Mrs.
Li was invited by an old sister-in-law to the west side hall of the ancestral hall, and she cried all the way.Li Haitang helped her mother to leave the small cross courtyard, leave the sacrificial ground in front of the ancestral hall, and leave the place where the candle lights up the night sky.Although the road home was dark, and although there were only mother and daughter who were supporting each other on the rugged path in the wilderness and deep forest, she had a steadiness in her heart that she had never felt before.Tired of walking, sitting on the side of the road, Li Haitang heard the sound of the bubbling stream flowing from the dark weeds."
Mother, there's a small river over there, I'll go get some water to quench your thirst.""
You are blind in the dark, be careful, don't fall into the water and drown.""
No, it won't.Mother, I'll go back when I go. ”Li Haitang lifted the hem of her skirt and ran to the place where the sound of the stream came.There is no hazy moonlight in the night sky, only a twinkling star guiding the way of the night walk.Li Haitang ran far away with her skirt, and her two little feet were numb before she saw the stars flickering on the edge of the grass beach in the distance."
Xiaohe, I found Xiaohe."
Li Haitang ran over excitedly, and hidden in the grass beach was a meandering stream.She knelt by the river and took a handful of stream water, which was cool to her throat, with a faint scent of grass and sweetness.
######夜空下小树林里静悄悄的, two long shadows hid in the grass.In the depths of the forest, the occasional crisp sound of weeds being broken by external forces startled the perched birds on the branches to flee.Two white shadows walked leisurely in the woods like ghosts, stopping from time to time to admire the panicked flight of the birds, laughing loudly, and startling the birds to flee.The white shadow who was walking behind caught up and put a hand on the shoulder of the white shadow who was walking behind."
Uncle Zi, what's the fun of you asking me to come to this kind of place?
Why don't I invite you to go to the Flower Room for a drink, and invite a few beautiful girls to accompany us to sing poems and songs, and appreciate calligraphy and painting, how about it?
”"Brother Junshen, what's the fun of the Flower Building.I'll show you the excitement, it's more interesting than singing. ”"Why do you have to step on two feet and mud legs to run to such a hellish place?
Look at how much mud I've splashed on me, and I'm going to be nagging a few girls in my house when I go back. ”"Brother Junshen, don't complain, tonight is definitely a lively scene you have never seen, and it is guaranteed to have an endless aftertaste.Let's go, you won't be able to see it if it's late. ”The two white shadows were moving faster and faster in the woods, and they were standing on the other side of the creek between laughter and chase.Although there was no hazy moonlight, the clear water still stretched the reflected white shadows long.Zhuge Yi gasped sharply, pointed to a grassy beach on the other side of the river, and said to his companions: "Whew!
Luckily, it caught up.Brother Junshen, look, the excitement is there!
