Chapter 46 The forty-fifth chapter of the past

bridal chamber. How many unmarried teenagers in the world are imagining the beautiful scenery in the bridal chamber on the night of flowers and candles?How many elderly people who are already dying are recalling the sweetness and warmth in the bridal chamber that day? Fantasy and memory are always beautiful. In fact, the bridal chamber on the wedding night is usually not as warm and sweet as recalled, and the scenery is far less beautiful than imagined. Some people who think they are very smart often like to describe the bridal chamber as a tomb, and even say that the sound from the bridal chamber is sometimes like a slaughterhouse.

The bridal chamber is certainly not the grave and the slaughterhouse. So what does the bridal chamber look like? The bridal chamber is usually a room that is not too warm. It is full of red and green everywhere, and the smell of paint is everywhere. In addition to the smell of wine left by the congratulators, you can stay in it for two hours without vomiting. People must have a very special nose and stomach. Of course, there are two people in the bridal chamber, a man and a woman. These two people are usually not very familiar, so they don't have much to say. So even if there is a lot of noise outside, the bridal chamber is usually very calm.

Although the congratulators are eating and drinking desperately, as if they are afraid that they will not get back their money, the bride and groom are usually hungry. This was originally their bridal chamber wedding night, but this day seemed to be spent for someone else. Yan Qi's red scarf had been lifted, and she was sitting on the edge of the bed with her head down, looking at her red embroidered shoes. Guo Dalu sat on the chair beside the small round table far away, and seemed to be in a daze. She didn't dare to look at him, and he didn't dare to look at her. He might have been more relaxed if he had had a drink, but the good thing is he didn't drink today.

It seems that as soon as the bridegroom wants to drink, some "well-meaning people" will come to stop him and rush to drink for him. They were good friends, and they had a lot to say every day. But once you're married, it's like they're not friends anymore. The two of them seemed to suddenly become very far away, very strange, very afraid of embarrassment. So no one is embarrassed to speak first. Guo Dalu originally thought he could handle it well, but as soon as he entered the bridal chamber, he suddenly realized that he had become an idiot. He is really not used to this situation.

He originally wanted to walk over and sit next to Yan Qi, but for some reason, his legs were so weak that he couldn't even stand up. I don't know how long it has passed, when Guo Dalu only felt that even his neck was a little stiff—— Yan Qi suddenly said: "I'm going to sleep." She fell asleep on the bed without even taking off her shoes, pulled up the red silk quilt embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water, and wrapped herself tightly. She was facing the wall, curled up like a shrimp. Guo Dalu bit his lip, looked at her, a smile gradually appeared in his eyes, and suddenly said: "Why didn't you ask me to go out today?"

Yan Qi ignored him, as if he had fallen asleep. Guo Dalu smiled and said, "Wouldn't you be unable to sleep if someone else is in your room?" Yan Qi didn't want to pay attention to him at first, but couldn't help but said: "If you don't say a few words, I will fall asleep." Guo Dalu blinked and said leisurely: "With me in the room, you can sleep too?" Yan Qi bit her lip and said softly, "You...you are not someone else." Guo Dalu said: "Who is it if it's not someone else?" Yan Qi suddenly gave a "puchi" smile, and said, "You are a big-headed ghost."

Guo Dalu suddenly sighed again, and said: "It's strange, why did you marry me, a big-headed ghost? I remember you said before that even if all the men in the world are dead, you won't marry me." Yan Qi turned over suddenly, grabbed the pillow, and threw it hard towards him. Her face was as red as a ripe apple just picked. Pillow flew back again, bringing Guo Dalu's people with him. Yan Qi blushed and said, "You...you...what do you want to do?" Guo Dalu said: "I want to bite you." The pink embroidered curtain has been hung down at some point. If someone must say that the sound in the bridal chamber sounds like a slaughterhouse, then this slaughterhouse must kill mosquitoes.

They also sounded like mosquitoes. Guo Dalu seemed to be softly saying: "Strange, really strange." Yan Qi said: "What's so strange?" Guo Dalu said: "Why don't you smell bad at all?" Just listening to the sound of "ba", it's like someone is hitting a mosquito, the more the hit is getting softer, the more the hit is getting softer... ※※※ It was almost dawn. The brocade tent just became quiet, and after a long time, Guo Dalu said softly: "Do you know what I'm thinking now?" Yan Qi said: "Yes." Her voice was whispering like a swallow, and no one could hear what she was saying.

Guo Dalu said: "I think of many strange things, but what I miss the most is a big hoof that is burnt red and rotten." Yan Qi smiled "puchi" and said, "Can you say that you are thinking of me?" Guo Dalu said: "I can't." Yan Qi said: "Impossible?" Guo Dalu said: "Because I am afraid that I will swallow you in one gulp." He sighed and murmured: "It's really not easy for me to get your wife. If I swallow it, I won't be gone." Yan Qi said: "If you don't have one, why don't you just find another one?"

Guo Dalu said, "Who are you looking for?" Yan Qi said: "For example... sour plum soup." Guo Dalu said slowly: "No, she is too sour, and she likes you." He suddenly smiled again, and said: "Now I know why she wasn't angry at all when you didn't want her that day... You must have told her that day that you are a woman just like her." Yan Qi said: "If I were a man, I would want her." Guo Dalu said: "Why have you been refusing to tell me that you are a woman?" Yan Qi said: "Whoever told you that you are blind, others can see it, but you can't see it."

Guo Dalu said: "Is this the secret you want to tell me?" Yan Qi said: "Yes." Guo Dalu said: "Why do you have to wait until I am about to die before you tell me?" Yan Qi said: "Because... because I'm afraid you don't want me..." Before she finished speaking, her mouth seemed to be blocked by something. After a long time, she panted lightly and said, "Let's have a good chat, and you are not allowed to move around." Guo Dalu said: "Okay, if you don't move, you don't move. But why are you afraid that I don't want you? Don't you know that even if people from all over the world were to replace you, I would not change you." Yan Qi said: "Really?" Guo Dalu said: "Of course it is true." Yan Qi said: "What if I exchanged that Shui Rouqing?" Guo Dalu sighed: "She is indeed a very good girl, and she is very pitiful. It's a pity that my heart has already been occupied by you alone, and I can't accommodate other people." Yan Qi let out a "wow".Suddenly there was a long silence in the brocade tent, as if the mouths of the two of them had been blocked by something again. After a long time, Guo Dalu sighed and said: "I know you did that to test whether I am loyal to you." Yan Qi bit her lip and said, "If you are willing to stay there, you will never see me again in this lifetime." Guo Dalu said: "But after I've come here, why don't you let me come to see you?" Yan Qi said: "Because there are other people who want to test you, to see if you are smart and courageous enough, to see if your heart is good enough, to see if you are qualified to be my father's son-in-law." Guo Dalu said: "So they just want to see if I'm smart enough to find out the secret of this room, and if I'm brave enough to go to the Dragon King Temple." Yan Qi said: "In that Dragon King Temple, if you dare to move my little cousin's bad idea, or refuse to send her back first, even if you can find here, you still won't be able to see me." Guo Dalu sighed, and said: "Fortunately, I am a smart, courageous and kind person..." Yan Qi smiled, and rushed to say: "Otherwise, how could you marry such a good wife?" Guo Dalu sighed: "It's only now that I realize that we are really a match made in heaven." Yan Qi said: "You just found out now?" Guo Dalu smiled and said, "Because I just realized now that both of us have thick skins." Now this house really looks like a bridal chamber, even sweeter and more beautiful than the bridal chamber you imagined. They deserve it. Because their emotions can stand the test, it is really not easy for them to have such a day. Diamonds need to be polished to shine. The same goes for love and friendship. Love and friendship that cannot stand the test are like flowers made of paper, which neither have the brilliance and fragrance of flowers, nor can they bear fruit forever. The trees are bearing fruit, and although spring is far away, the harvest season is at hand. Yan Qi sat under the tree, took off the big straw straw hat on his head to make a fan, and murmured: "It's so hot, Boss Wang must be too lazy to move." Guo Dalu stared into the distance, and said: "These days, he and Xiao Lin don't know what they are doing." Yan Qi said: "Don't worry, they will never be lonely, especially Xiao Lin." Guo Dalu said: "Why?" Yan Qi smiled sweetly and said, "Did you forget that little flower seller?" Guo Dalu also laughed, and immediately heard the crisp singing voice: "Little girl, get up early in the morning, Carrying a basket of flowers, go to the market; Through the streets, through the alleys, Selling flowers and selling flowers, shouting..." Of course the singing voice was not sung by the little flower seller, it was actually Yan Qi who sang. She shook her straw hat lightly and sang in a melodious voice, causing people on the road to turn their heads and stare at her with wide eyes. Guo Dalu smiled and said, "Don't you forget what kind of clothes you are wearing now?" She was still dressed in men's clothes, but her singing voice was as clear as a yellow warbler coming out of the valley. Yan Qi laughed and said, "It doesn't matter, anyway, even if I don't sing, others can still see that I am a woman. It is not easy for a woman to dress like a man." Guo Dalu said: "What about you before?" Yan Qi said: "It was different before." Guo Dalu said: "What's the difference?" Yan Qi smiled and said, "I used to be dirty...very dirty. Everyone thinks that women should always be cleaner than men." Guo Dalu said: "Actually?" Yan Qi glared at him and said, "Actually, women are cleaner than men." ※※※ This road is the way back to Fugui Villa. They have not forgotten their friends, they want to share their happiness with friends. "Boss Wang and Xiao Lin will be very happy if they know that we...we have become husband and wife." "I don't know if Kobayashi will be jealous." After saying this, he started to run, and Yan Qi chased after him. Since they didn't take a car or ride a horse, they laughed, ran, and chased on the road, just like two children. Doesn't happiness always make one young? When I was tired from running, I sat down in the shade of a tree and bought a pancake for lunch. Even the bland hard wheat cakes are sweet in their mouths. Guo Dalu hadn't had a drink for several days, except the day before they left, when Nangong Chou had a farewell party for his daughter and son-in-law, not only did he make an exception and had two drinks, but he also made sure they had a good drink, so they Totally drunk. Yan Qi smiled and said: "Although my father can't drink alcohol now, he likes to watch others drink." Guo Dalu smiled and said, "He must have had a good drinker before." Yan Qi said: "It's not just good, ten Guo Dalu may not be able to drink better than one of him." Guo Dalu said: "Ha." Yan Qi said: "What does Ha mean?" Guo Dalu said: "Ha means that I am not only not convinced, but I also don't believe it." Yan Qi said: "It's a pity that he is old now, and his old injuries have recurred. He has been lying in bed for many years and cannot move, otherwise it would be strange if he didn't make you crawl all over the ground." When she mentioned her father's illness, she couldn't help showing sadness in her eyes. Guo Dalu also sighed softly, and said: "He is really an amazing person, I never thought he would let us go." Yan Qi said: "Why?" Guo Dalu said: "Because... because he is so lonely, if it were someone else, we would definitely ask us to accompany him." Yan Qi said: "But he is different, he never wants to make others suffer for himself, no matter how unbearable it is, he would rather bear it alone." Her eyes sparkled again, obviously proud of having such a father. Guo Dalu sighed: "To be honest, I never thought he was such a person." Yan Qi said: "What kind of person did you think he was?" Guo Dalu murmured: "You know how terrible the legends in Jianghu say about him." Yan Qi said: "What about now?" Guo Dalu sighed, and said: "Now I know that those legends in the Jianghu are really scary. He can endure it for so many years. Just because of this, he is no longer comparable to others." Yan Qi said dejectedly: "Maybe it's just because he couldn't bear it anymore." Guo Dalu said: "Fortunately, he still has friends. I can't help but feel happy and moved for him when I see the loyalty and friendship God Tuozi and the others have shown to him." Yan Qi was silent for a while, then suddenly said: "Do you know how they planned to deal with him before?" Guo Dalu shook his head. Yan Qi said: "They also wanted to kill him before, but later, after several life-and-death struggles, they discovered that he was not the person in the legend, and they were moved by his personality, so they became lost his friend." She smiled, very sadly, but also a little proud, and continued: "For him, Jin Luohan even betrayed Shaolin, and did not hesitate to be a traitor who will never see the light of day again for the rest of his life." Guo Dalu said: "Isn't it because people have such great emotions that they are different from animals?" Yan Qi said: "This kind of emotion can only show its greatness in the adversity of life and death." They were right. Only in the midst of life and death can a person show his greatness. Nangong Chou was able to win the friendship of Shen Tuozi and the others, what a painful price he paid, I am afraid that it is beyond the imagination of others. If it is not at the critical moment of life and death, you would rather sacrifice yourself to protect others, how would others know the greatness of your personality?How could you sacrifice everything for him? Among them, of course, there is also a thrilling, sad and tearful story. There is no need to mention this story. Because what we are going to tell now is a happy story. There are enough sad stories in this world. Already too much. ※※※ It's not even dusk, it's almost dusk. Although the sun has set, the gravel road is still hot and hot to the touch. Under the shade of the trees in front, there was a ragged and haggard woman, holding a child in her hands and carrying the child on her back. She was standing there begging for passers-by with her head down and her hands outstretched. Guo Dalu immediately walked over, took out a piece of broken silver, and put it in her hand. He never missed a beggar, even if he only had this piece of silver left, he would give it to others without thinking about it. Yan Qi looked at it, with a look of approval in her gentle eyes. She was also obviously proud of having such a husband. The woman murmured words of gratitude, and was about to put the money in her bosom, when she intentionally or unintentionally raised her head and glanced at Guo Dalu. An indescribable and terrifying change immediately took place on her pale and haggard face. Her lifeless and bloodshot eyes immediately bulged out like dead fish, as if a knife had suddenly been inserted into her heart. Guo Dalu was still smiling at first, but his smile gradually froze, and a horrified expression appeared on his face, and he lost his voice, "It's you?" The woman immediately covered her face with her hands and shouted, "Go away, I don't recognize you." Guo Dalu's expression changed from horror to pity, and he sighed, "How did you become like this?" The woman said: "That's my business, it has nothing to do with you." Although she tried to force herself to control herself, her whole body was shaking like a candle in the wind. Guo Dalu lowered his gaze to the two children who were half-clothed and full of snot and asked sadly, "Is this the child you gave birth to? Where are his people?" The woman was trembling, and finally couldn't help crying loudly, covering her face and weeping bitterly: "He lied to me, cheated me of my private money, and ran away with other women, but left these two villains behind. Me, why am I so miserable...why?" No one can answer for her, only herself. Could it be that she brought this miserable experience on her own? Guo Dalu sighed, not knowing what to say. Yan Qi walked over slowly, and held his hand wordlessly, letting him know that no matter what happened, she would always stand by his side and always trust him equally. What can a woman give a man, what else can a man appreciate more than this kind of trust and understanding? Guo Dalu was suspicious and said, "You already know who she is?" Yan Qi nodded. Women seem to be born with a wonderful and keen sixth sense for the man they love. She had already felt that there was a very unusual relationship between this woman and her husband, and after listening to what they said, there was no doubt about it. This woman is obviously the one who deceived Guo Dalu and abandoned him. Guo Dalu sighed and said: "I really didn't expect to see her here, and I didn't expect her to become like this." Yan Qi softly said: "Since she is your friend, you should do your best to help her." The woman suddenly stopped crying, raised her head, stared at her, and asked, "Who are you?" Yan Qi looked softly and calmly, and said, "I am his wife." There was another strange change on the woman's face, she turned her head to stare at Guo Dalu, and said in a surprised voice: "Are you already married?" Guo Dalu said: "Yes." The woman looked at him, then at Yan Qi, a vicious look of jealousy suddenly appeared in her eyes, she grabbed Guo Dalu's skirt and said loudly: "You were going to marry me, How can you marry someone else?" Guo Dalu didn't move, his face was as pale as paper, he really didn't know how to deal with this situation. Yan Qi held his hand even tighter, stared at the woman and said: "It's you who left him, it's not that he didn't want you, you should remember the past." The woman's eyes became more vicious, and she said with a sinister smile: "What do I remember? I only remember that he once told me that he only likes me forever, and he will never marry other women except me." She pretended to be about to cry again, twitching the corners of her mouth, and said loudly: "But he lied to me, a poor woman like me, you all come to judge..." There were people surrounding him on the road, looking at Guo Dalu with contempt and hatred. Guo Dalu's pale face has turned red again, even beads of sweat have emerged. But Yan Qi's expression was still very calm, and he said slowly: "He didn't lie to you, and he never lied to you, but it's a pity that you are no longer the person you used to be, and you should understand it yourself." The woman screamed and jumped, and said: "I don't understand anything, I don't want to live anymore... Even if I die, I will die with this cruel man." She bumped headlong towards Guo Dalu, lying on the ground, refusing to get up again. No one can do anything to meet this kind of aggressive woman. Guo Dalu didn't know what to do, he just wanted to find a crack in the ground and get down. Yan Qi pondered, then suddenly took out a gold chain from his body, handed it to the woman, and said, "Do you know what this is?" The woman stared and stared blankly for a while, before she said loudly: "Of course I recognize it, this is mine too." Yan Qi said: "So I'll give it back to you now. I just want you to know that in order to keep this gold chain, he didn't hesitate to starve, scold, or even be ridiculed by his friends - you should also think of what he is doing for. " The woman looked at the golden chain, and the hatred in her eyes gradually turned into shame. She is human after all. People, more or less, always have some humanity. Yan Qi said: "After changing this gold chain, you can start a small business and raise your children well. You will definitely meet a good man in the future. As long as you don't cheat others, no one else will." to deceive you." The woman's body began to tremble again, and she turned her head to look at her child. The child's face was full of horror, and he wanted to cry with his mouth curled up, but he was so frightened that he didn't even dare to cry. Yan Qi softly said: "Don't forget that you are already a mother, you should think about it for your child, he will grow up in the future, you should make him feel proud of having a mother like you." The woman trembled, fell down on the ground and burst into tears, crying bitterly: "God...God, why did you let me see him again...why?" No one can answer this question for her, only herself. What kind of seeds you plant, you will definitely get what kind of harvest. If what you plant is sand, never expect it to bear beautiful flowers. ※※※ dusk. The sunset has turned from gorgeous to calm. Guo Dalu walked slowly on the road, obviously feeling as heavy as his face. Yan Qi didn't speak, and didn't bother him. She knows that everyone has a time when he needs to be alone, and this is what a woman who is a wife needs to know most. After an unknown amount of time, Guo Dalu said in a deep voice, "When did you redeem that gold chain? Why didn't you tell me?" Yan Qi smiled and said, "Because I didn't redeem it at all." Guo Dalu said: "You don't?" Yan Qi said: "The gold chain I gave her just now is not yours at all." Guo Dalu was stunned and said, "No?" Yan Qi smiled and said, "That's a private congratulatory gift from Sister Mei Lan." Guo Dalu said: "Then why did you take it out, why did you do this?" Yan Qi smiled and said: "Because I am also a woman, I always know a lot more about women than you do." Guo Dalu said: "You mean that when she sees this gold chain, she will remember that I treated her well before, so she is willing to let me go?" Yan Qi pursed her lips and smiled, "The gold chains all look similar, even you can't tell them apart, let alone her." She had a good laugh. Because this golden chain is just a symbol, a symbol of the past. Now that they couldn't even tell the gold chain apart, it was obvious that they had forgotten all their old feelings and resentments. No matter how generous a woman is, she doesn't want her husband to hide the past in his heart. Guo Dalu said: "But when you saw me, you should have remembered the past..." Yan Qi interrupted her and said: "The way she treated you like that is not because of the past, but because of jealousy." Guo Dalu said: "Jealous?" Yan Qi said: "It's not that I'm jealous of you, it's that I'm jealous. Look at her own life, and then look at us, she regrets why she did that before." She sighed, and continued: "When a person regrets himself, he will often inexplicably harbor hatred towards others, wishing that people all over the world suffer as much as her." Guo Dalu sighed: "So she wants to destroy us." Yan Qi said: "She hates you only because she knows that she will never get you again." Guo Dalu said: "But when she saw the gold chain, why did she suddenly change again?" Yan Qi said: "Because the gold chain is different from you." She smiled sweetly, and continued: "The gold chain is not only prettier than you, but she also knows that she can get it." Guo Dalu said: "Is it because the gold chain is already in her hands!" Yan Qi said: "The answer is correct." It is true that only women understand women in the world. A woman always only believes in what she has already held in her hand. Even if she knew that there were still a hundred gold chains to take, she would never trade the one in her hand. Not many women are willing to give their gold chains to their husbands' former lovers. Only the smartest women would do that. With only one gold chain, she has bought her husband's trust and gratitude to her, and also bought her own life's happiness. Guo Dalu stared at his wife, couldn't help himself, held her little hand, and said softly, "Thank you." Yan Qi blinked and said with a smile, "Thank you?...Thank you for that golden chain?" Guo Dalu shook his head and said, "You should know what I'm thanking you for?" Yan Qi did know. Of course, what he was grateful for was not a gold chain, but her understanding and understanding. That is far more precious than all the gold chains put together. An understanding and considerate wife will always be a man's greatest happiness and wealth. Only the luckiest men will ever get it.
