Chivalrous Song Dynasty

From another point of view, Yan Poxi's thinking coincides with Bai Sheng's thinking.Bai Sheng was also eager to dispose of the tiger's body. Of course, he definitely didn't want to eat tiger meat.

Of course it’s not okay to always carry a dead tiger on the road, not to mention that the tiger’s carcass will deteriorate and rot after a long time in this late autumn season, but it’s too dazzling to carry the tiger through the city. Bai Sheng only wants to reach Bianliang safely. Of course, it can't be so eye-catching. It doesn't matter if it scares the common people, but it's troublesome to attract the attention of thieves from all walks of life.Therefore, it is still necessary to dispose of the tiger carcasses overnight.

It took one night and one day, after skinning, deboning, smoking and other processes, the tiger carcasses were processed. On the third day, they set off and arrived at Qinghe County at Shenshi that day. Stay overnight, leave the city tomorrow and turn south again, and then embark on the path leading to Kaifeng Mansion.

A group of people and the carriage were walking along the street, and when they were looking for a good inn, they suddenly heard the sound of drums and drums. Yan Poxi opened the curtain of the carriage and said, "Someone is getting married. Bai Lang, let's go Let's see the fun, okay?"

Yan Poxi followed Song Jiang after she reached the age of marriage, but Song Jiang did not give her a wedding ceremony, so it is reasonable to be particularly envious of other women's marriage.

Bai Sheng originally didn't want to join in the fun and make trouble, but then thought that Yan Poxi was very kind to him, so he agreed. Anyway, he didn't find the inn right now, so why not just take a look.

Indeed, along the way, Yan Poxi did her best to solve his troubles, especially when Zhu Dian led his troops to hunt him down, Yan Poxi once said that she would die with him, and this sentence was deeply moved. In his heart, even if he didn't want to marry Yan Poxi as his wife, he had already regarded Yan Poxi as his family, otherwise why would he have to kill Ximen Qing?

The place where the drum music came from was not far away. After walking more than a dozen zhang, I saw a donkey wearing red and colorful hanging tied to the gate of a wealthy family's courtyard. The sound of the drum music came from this courtyard.Yan Poxi poked her head up and saw that she couldn't help being scornful: "The groom's official is also a poor man, he can't even afford a sedan chair, so he just drove a donkey to pick up the bride."

"Where is the bridegroom officer? Why didn't I see it? Could it be that he entered the woman's house? This is against the rules." Li Qingzhao also poked his head out of the carriage to watch the excitement, and discussed with Yan Poxi.

"Haha" Guo Sheng laughed out loud after hearing the conversation between the two women, and pointed out: "The groom should be bowing, his upper body is blocked by the donkey's body, do you see that there are six under the donkey's belly?" leg?"

Li Qingzhao and Yan Poxi took a closer look when they heard the words, and they saw that there were two human legs between the donkey's four legs.

Bai Sheng jokingly said: "Brother Guo's words are wrong, why are there six legs? I clearly see seven legs."

Guo Sheng and Li Yan were both surprised, but Yan Poxi reacted the fastest, rolled her eyes and said, "Sir, you really know how to joke, that's clearly a donkey's whip, can it be counted as a leg?"

While speaking, a group of carriages and horses had already arrived at the door of the family, but they saw a short man standing behind the donkey, his appearance was very insignificant, he was wearing coarse clothes, and including the bun on his head, he was not as tall as the donkey's back. , Li Yan and others couldn't help but look at each other in amazement, is this the groom's official?How could there be such a short adult man in the world?

Bai Sheng was taken aback, he could tell right away that this person must be Wu Dalang, but he didn't expect to catch up with Wu Dalang and get married just after arriving in Qinghe County.

Wu Dalang married, who did he marry?Then there's no need to think about it, it must be Pan Jinlian!

Just when I thought of this, I heard a mournful cry from the courtyard of the big family. Looking into the courtyard, I saw more than a dozen men dressed as servants standing in the courtyard, all of them lowered their heads, looking like the family People are quite powerful.

As the cries became louder, someone came out of the hall, but it was two strong servants holding a bride with a phoenix crown and a xiapei, her face was covered with a red hijab, she couldn't see her appearance, only this The bride was crying so hard that she was dying, her body was struggling left and right, her legs were kicking and kicking, she seemed extremely reluctant to leave the courtyard, but the two fat women were so strong that they only dragged her feet away from the ground to travel abroad.

This is Pan Jinlian, right?Fate is too unfair to her. Seeing her crying like this shows that she absolutely does not want to marry Wu Dalang. Who is so overbearing to force this flower into cow dung?Isn't this burning the piano and boiling the crane?

Somehow, a strong sympathy welled up in Bai Sheng's heart. People in later generations said that Pan Jinlian was promiscuous, but which beauty would be willing to marry a husband like Wu Dalang?Married to such a husband, which beauty can not cheat?In other words, if Pan Jinlian married a handsome man, would she definitely cheat in the future?

With sympathy, Bai Sheng couldn't help meddling in other people's business, and said angrily: "It's outrageous! Isn't this a forced marriage of a civilian girl?"

When these words came out, Li Yan and the two daughters didn't think so. Li Qingzhao couldn't help asking: "Forced marriage? Why do you think so?"

Bai Sheng said: "Didn't you see the bride crying miserably? She must be unwilling to marry. Since she is unwilling to marry, then this three-inch Ding is forced to marry! What's the point?"

Yan Poxi shook her head and said, "Sister, you are wrong. When a woman gets married, there is no one who does not cry, because she is leaving the parents who raised her, so even if she is beautiful in her heart, she must cry in face. Unfilial! You will be stabbed in the back by the neighbors."

Bai Sheng shook his head and said, "I understand what you're saying, but look at this bride, does she cry like the way you said? If it's my opinion, she's about to die!"

"It's true. Ordinary married women don't cry like this." Li Qingzhao recognized Bai Sheng's point of view. Looking back at the scene of her marriage, the so-called crying was just putting a handkerchief inside the red hijab for show Forget it, as for whether there were tears or not, how could others see whether they were wiped or not?

Yan Poxi still insisted on her own opinion: "That doesn't prove that the bride is unwilling to marry. How does she know that the groom is so wretched? It's impossible for her to see Sina's appearance in advance."

Yan Poxi's words are reasonable. According to ancient rules, under normal circumstances, a married woman should not meet her husband before the day of marriage. On the wedding night, when the bridal chamber is full of flowers and candles, it is the time for the two to meet each other. Whether good or bad, satisfactory or not, there is no chance of overturning the "first meeting" of the "first meeting". As the saying goes, the so-called "marry a chicken and follow a chicken and marry a dog and follow a dog" is the truth.

Of course, in order to avoid actually marrying a dog or a chicken, some people will seriously question the matchmaker in advance, try to filter out the exaggerated elements in the matchmaker's mouth, get a more objective and true evaluation, and then decide whether to marry.

The few people were discussing, when they suddenly saw an old man with the appearance of a rich man coming out of the hall in the courtyard, and shouted loudly: "Why don't you throw her out for me quickly? This bitch promised well before, but when he saw the groom, he changed his mind and acted violently." ! Hmph, is it up to you, a lowly servant girl, to marry or not? What a joke!"

"Exactly!" A middle-aged woman with a sultry face appeared and stood next to the local rich man to chime in. "Today you have to marry if you marry, and you have to marry if you don't! You are not allowed to come back after leaving this door, so as not to waste money." You vixen are killing people in my house!"

Chapter 25

Amidst the rich man's and his wife's scolding, the bride had already been carried to the gate of the courtyard by two maids, and following the voice of the housewife: "Throw her out!" The two maids threw the bride into the air with force , Flying down to the street outside the door.

The bridegroom outside the door was startled, and hurried around the donkey's head, wanting to pick him up, but he was too late. At this moment, a figure passed by the groom's face, stretched out his hands, and held the bride firmly in his arms. arms.

"what are you doing?"

"Let go! That's my wife!"

Someone shouted in and out of the courtyard at the same time, the one who opened the mouth in the courtyard was the housewife with a full face, and the one outside the courtyard was of course the bridegroom.

The person holding the bride was unhurried, smiled, and said to the courtyard: "You don't want this girl anymore, do you? I want it!" Without waiting for the people in the courtyard to answer, he turned to look at the groom and said, "You don't want it anymore, don't you?" Look at your virtue, are you worthy to marry this woman? Can you give her a happy life?"

At this moment, people inside and outside the courtyard were stunned at the same time. Looking at what happened in front of them, no one spoke for a while. Who is this person?What way are you playing?Grab a kiss?

Li Qingzhao, Yan Poxi, Guo Sheng and others were also shocked, because the person holding the bride was none other than Bai Sheng!

The first one to react was Wu Dalang, who rushed up like a child whose toy was robbed in later generations, stretched out his hand and grabbed the bride's arm, and shouted at the same time: "Let go! She is my wife!"

Of course, Bai Sheng would not let go of the bride in his arms. He raised his leg and kicked Wu Dalang a somersault. When it got under the donkey's stomach, the donkey backed up again and again in fright.

Bai Shengxin said that this Wu Dalang is quite good at pretending, how could my kick have such great strength?But right now, he is not in the mood to pay attention to these things, and shouted loudly: "Get lost! You just said she is your wife?"

After questioning, he lowered his head and asked in the ear of the woman in his arms: "Are you willing to marry him?"

"I don't want to!" The bride lay in Bai Sheng's arms without struggling, and she didn't lift her hijab to see that the man who was hugging her was He Muyang. She seemed to know that this man was her unrivaled hero, and the tone of her answer was even stronger. It was very firm, which surprised Bai Sheng secretly.

"Ah? In broad daylight, you dare to rob a wife and even beat someone up, I will fight with you!" Wu Dalang gasped for a long time from the ground, struggled to get up and kept yelling, but he didn't dare to rush up again. Although he is short and short, he is not a fool after all, and he will be beaten if he rushes up, this reason is understandable.

Bai Sheng sneered: "Come on, try fighting with me."

Wu Dalang retreated instead of advancing, angrily said: "Hmph, let's let you go berserk today, when my second brother comes home, I will definitely let him come to settle accounts with you!"

Bai Sheng laughed out loud when he heard the words. What he was most afraid of was that Wu Song was currently in Qinghe County. In this way, a stone hanging in my heart immediately fell to the ground, Wu Song is not in Qinghe, so what is there to be afraid of?

As long as Wu Song is not there, even if there are such awesome figures as Dongmen Qing and Nanmen Qing, they will be fearless, let alone Wu Dalang, a three-inch man?

Seeing his daughter-in-law being robbed, Wu Dalang immediately asked for help from the rich man in the yard, "Mr. Zhang! Your old man betrothed Sixth Sister to me. Now that someone has robbed her, you old man must make the decision for me!"

At this time, the rich man and his wife had already reached the gate of the courtyard. The housewife looked at Bai Sheng coldly, raised her eyebrows immediately, and said with a fierce look in her eyes: "Where did you come from? Why did you want to rob my daughter? Don't you have any?" Is Wang Fa?"

Bai Sheng sneered and said: "Where I came from has nothing to do with you, I just ask you, you said this bride is your daughter, could it be that you are her mother? Since ancient times, marriage has always been about the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers. If you are not her mother, you have no right to decide her destination!"

The woman was even angrier, and was about to speak, but she heard the bride in Bai Sheng's arms interject: "Big brother, the younger sister is named Pan Jinlian, and her nickname is Sixth Sister. A few days ago, Zhang Yuanwai wanted to dirty me. I couldn't bear the humiliation, so I went to the eldest lady to sue, and the eldest lady betrothed me to the Wuhan University in this county. Look, people are neither human nor ghost, little sister, I would rather die than marry such a man!"

The woman took a sip and said angrily: "You little vixen, I will feed you and raise you to adulthood. You were born as a member of my Zhang family and died as a ghost of my Zhang family! Even if you want to marry a dog You have to get married too, how can you pick and choose?"

The woman was spouting nonsense, but the old man was impatient, waved his hand, and said with a sneer, "Ma'am, what reason are you talking to a stranger like him? Come, give me a call!"

Following Zhang Yuanwai's order, more than a dozen housekeepers and servants who were standing in the courtyard rushed out. The man rushed to Bai Sheng, but the woman rushed to the carriage in which Li Yan and the two daughters were riding. They are going to fight with Li Yan's two daughters too.

Comparatively speaking, the number of these servants is not much larger than that of Bai Sheng and his party, but the other party is a foreigner, and they have full confidence in fighting at the door of the house, so the servants and servants are all full of energy, running out screaming, and there is no reason at all. Consider the issue of being able to beat but not beat.

When Pan Jinlian heard that the momentum was wrong, she couldn't help trembling: "Brother, let's run! We can't fight them."

The meaning of what she said is obvious, under such a situation, if she wins, she will inevitably face a lawsuit, and if she loses, she will suffer physical pain, and even be twisted to the government office.
