The Marquis Is Innocent

Chapter 6: get married

Mrs. Ding has not thought about tea and dinner these days, and her brows have been frowning. Xiao Qiao has stayed by her side from morning to night to comfort her. She just came out of Mrs. Ding's place and walked with her wet nurse Chunniang. The two walked together. while talking.

The head of the Qiao family is generous to the people and is very popular in the local area. In the past two days, people in the city have been coming to express their thanks and congratulations, and they are all beaming with joy. Although Xiao Qiao didn't go out, she knew about it. When Chunniang went to inquire about it, she heard that all the people in the city knew about the marriage between Qiao and Wei, and that a military disaster was eliminated. The people were grateful, so they came to thank them , I was muttering in my heart when I suddenly saw my father pacing up and down the door of the courtyard where he lived, with a heavy heart, so he quickly stepped forward and called, Xiao Qiao saw that he was hesitant to say anything, and knew that he should have something to say Needless to say, when I entered the room, I couldn't help but ask about the news I just heard.

Qiao Ping frowned, looked at Xiao Qiao, and said slowly: "Manman, it's true. I'm really sorry for your father..."

The beloved daughter clearly has a wishful marriage, and she doesn't want to be unpredictable, and now she will be married to Wei Shao. Thinking of Jiaojiao's daughter in the future, she felt like she was trapped in a tiger's mouth, isolated and helpless, and her heart was full of grief, and she couldn't say anything.

Xiao Qiao felt that something was wrong at first, but after her father said this, she watched her words, and her heart skipped a beat.

There is no news of Da Qiao, but there are already rumors of marriage in the city, and it only started in the past two days. Father's tone is like this again, is it that he wants to replace Da Qiao and marry into the Wei family?

But I already have a contract...

"Father, do you want me to replace my sister?"

She hesitated, and finally asked.

Although his father was slow to respond, Xiao Qiao's heart was already clear.

Because it was too unexpected, she was also stunned, her heart was beating suddenly, and people couldn't react.

The reason why she encouraged Da Qiao to elope at first was because she couldn't bear to watch Da Qiao fall into Zhongshan's mouth, but also because she hoped that her father could persuade her uncle to give it a shot, and she was someone who had a marriage contract - although this marriage contract , She also thought about how to think of a way to get rid of it after all this time has passed, so she never thought that the Qiao and Wei families would still marry, and she wanted to marry Da Qiao herself!

"Manman, there has been a message from the Wei family, agreeing to the marriage, the messenger will arrive soon, your cousin is gone again at this time, your uncle knelt down and begged me, being a father is really..."

Qiao Ping explained two sentences and stopped again.

Xiao Qiao gradually regained her senses, but her mood was still very disordered. Standing there, she didn't know what to say for a while.

"Liu Shizi's marriage can only be turned off for you. Manman, I'm sorry for your father...

Qiao Ping's eyes were slightly wet.

Xiao Qiao was silent for a moment.

"Father, I see. I'm a little confused, will you let me be alone for a while?"

Finally, she raised her eyes to look at Qiao Ping, and said with a slight smile on the corner of her mouth.

Qiao Ping saw that her daughter's face was clearly not good, but instead of crying, she laughed, feeling even more guilty, and sighed deeply.

Father went out. Across the door, Xiao Qiao heard the whispers of him and his wet nurse, Chunniang. She should be asking her to take good care of herself. After a while, the footsteps drifted away, and the surroundings became silent.

That night, Qiao Ci got the news.

Later, when Xiao Qiao heard Chunniang say that he was furious at the time, he went straight to his uncle and protested loudly.

Uncle has no son, he always treats his nephew as if he is his own, and he values ​​it very much on weekdays. But at that time, Qiao Ci was also beaten out by his uncle and locked in the forbidden room.

Xiao Qiao didn't sleep a night.

Her father had always loved her, and she knew in her heart that if it wasn't for her helplessness, he would never agree to marry her. Now the news of the marriage between the two has spread. The people in the city are very happy about this. As the father of the county governor, it is like being put on the back of a tiger, with the expectation of 200,000 soldiers and civilians in Yanzhou. Apart from agreeing, he really has no other way out. .

Earlier, she had told Da Qiao that she wanted to marry Wei Shao and asked her to fulfill herself. She said that at the time, but she knew about Da Qiao. If she didn't say so, she would never let go of her responsibility as Qiao's parent and run away with Bi She.

When she was painstakingly trying to help Da Qiao reverse the trajectory of her previous life, she was actually making up her mind that she would never follow the same path in her previous life.

The ideal is very beautiful, but the reality really hit her hard, and she couldn't find the north of the seven meat and eight elements she photographed.

Xiao Qiao couldn't help but smile bitterly.

The road has indeed changed, but it has become another dead end.

She couldn't just walk away like Big Joe. Besides, even if she wanted to run, it was impossible. My uncle learned about it. No wonder these two days, no matter where I go, I will always be followed by three or four strong women from the big room.

After struggling all night, at dawn, she finally persuaded herself that she could only try to accept such a wrong result.

The next day, a wedding envoy from the Wei family arrived, named Cai Xun, who was Yuyang to discuss Cao Shi. Qiao Yue led Qiao Ping and a group of retainers to welcome them in formal attire, and greeted the guests in the front hall. In the marriage, fortunately there is another daughter in the younger brother's family, who is more talented and beautiful than the eldest daughter. I hope that the second daughter will discuss the marriage and have a good surname.

Although Zhang Pu had repeatedly assured him that the Wei family would accept it, Qiao Yue was still a little worried, lest the other party think he was disrespectful. Unexpectedly, Cai Xun was not at all unhappy, and he was chatting and laughing, saying that he would send a letter to the lord as soon as possible, and wait for the lord to reply. Qiao Yue was a little relieved. After the banquet was over, he personally escorted Cai Xun into the post court, and ordered the postmaster to treat him as a guest. When he came back, he waited for ten days, and there was an echo from there.

Sure enough, as Zhang Pu said, the Wei family agreed.

Joe is overjoyed.

At that time, the custom of marriage was the six rituals of ancient times. For a wealthy family like Qiao Wei to get married, it normally takes at least half a year from accepting to finally getting married. But this time, the two families have only one purpose, and that is to get married as soon as possible. Within two days, the dowry gift from the Wei family was delivered. The betrothal fee is tens of thousands of gold, and the BMW is twelve, which is only one level lower than the marriage system of the emperor. On the same day, the dowry was entered from the north gate of Puyang City, and the music was sent all the way to the envoy's mansion. Along the way, people watched, admiring it, and it was extremely lively.

Then, on the eighth day of next month, the Wei family will welcome relatives. It is suitable for marriage, it is suitable to travel, it is auspicious day.

It's already mid-November, and there are only a few days left. The entire Qiao family was busy with the wedding.

It advocates extravagance in marriage and takes pride in extravagance. The dowry of Xiaoqiao and Xiaoqiao has been prepared long ago, and it was already rich. Now that Daqiao is gone, the Qiao family disdain to save this money for the sake of Xianmenting. The two plus one were given to Xiaoqiao, and they were sent out that day. When it was in the city, it stretched for several miles and was spectacular. As for Xiao Qiao's body and money, it is even richer. Qiao Ping felt guilty about his daughter, thinking that in the future when she came to Wei's house, she had money and it would be much more convenient to do things. As far as the money on hand is concerned, Xiao Qiao has really become an out-and-out little rich woman.

The auspicious time will come. That Wei Shao himself did not come. The general Hu Benzhong Lang, Wei Liang, who greeted him on his behalf, was from the Wei family. He was nine feet tall, had a beard around his eyes, and his muscles were knotted. He was equipped with a long sword and weighed thirty-six kilograms. Famous for his bravery and fighting skills. However, this Wei Liang is not as friendly and approachable as Cai Xun, the previous marriage proposal. He is a bit arrogant and ignores the Qiao family. Qiao Yue is unhappy, but now he is taking the initiative to be nice to the other party, and he does not dare to show his anger. , the face is flattering and thoughtful.

The next day was the day when Xiao Qiao got married and left home. The gate of Qiao's house was opened, and the inside and outside were colorful, and the people from all over the world also dressed in new clothes and gathered to see the daughter of the envoy.

Xiao Qiao came out of the shower in the morning and stood naked. Fang was only fourteen years old. Although she was not as mature as a mature woman, her chest and buttocks were round, and her waist was held tightly. Dazzling as snow, the beauty is almost impossible to look directly at.

She was surrounded by servants and maids. She wore dark red clothes on the inside, dark clothes on the outside, tied a large belt, covered her knees, wore a jade jue, a sock coat and wooden shoes, and finally put a blue silk bun on her head. Fixed, wearing pearl flowers on the bun, and swaying. Dressing up, but seeing the graceful beauty, beautiful jade, graceful yet graceful, and unpretentious, the servants and women onlookers all praised her.

Mrs. Ding held Xiao Qiao Rou Wei and gave her many instructions, and finally stared at Xiao Qiao for a moment, her eyes slowly turning red and said: "Manman, my aunt also knows in her heart that Afan cruelly left her father and mother, and Yu She may not be a bad thing, but it's just that she suffered you. I want to marry her into the Wei family, and my aunt will thank you on behalf of your sister. Your sisters are very close. If you know her whereabouts in the future, I hope you can tell your aunt as well, okay? Let me have a bottom line, aunt will never let your uncle know."

With a smile on his face, Xiao Qiao agreed one by one. When it was auspicious time, the servants who were sent to marry were surrounded by the front hall.

Uncle Qiao Yue and father Qiao Ping were waiting there. The younger brother Qiao Ci was dissatisfied with the marriage and still refused to show his face at this moment. Qiao Ping's reluctance is beyond words, and even his uncle seemed to express emotion. Xiao Qiao said goodbye to his father for a short while, trying his best to hold back the tears that were about to fall in his eyes, and bowed down to his father.

When she was lifted up by Qiao Ping, there was a chorus of music from outside, urging the bride to go out, but Qiao Ping didn't give up on her daughter and still didn't let go of her arm. The marquis of Wei is handsome and handsome, and everyone in the world knows that the daughter of the envoy is a match made in heaven, so why don't you give up?"

In the eyes of everyone, Qiao Ping finally squeezed his daughter's hand tightly, and then slowly released it.

Xiao Qiao glanced at Zhang Pu. Knowing that he successfully brokered this marriage, his uncle rewarded him with two hundred gold and two maids, and he relied on him more and more. These days, he is very proud of himself.

Although he was also the victim, and the marriage did temporarily solve the difficulty in Yanzhou, no wonder he came up with this idea, but he still couldn't swallow the calculated anger in his heart. When Xiao Qiao turned around, he approached him as if nothing had happened. Using the heavy skirt under him to cover him, he lifted up a foot that was wearing clogs, and was sure to crush his toes hard.

The bottom of the clogs is as hard as a rock, and Xiao Qiao is doing her best, this step is really not light. Zhang Pu suddenly felt a sharp pain in his toes, and he was unprepared. He cried out in pain. He looked up and saw Xiao Qiao looking at him with a smile, and he suddenly understood. Seeing that everyone in the hall looked over, as if to blame him for being rude in front of others, with a wry smile on his face, enduring the pain in his toes, Nuonuo made two noises, and bowed back as if nothing had happened. Afterwards, when no one took off his shoes and socks to check, he saw that the entire toe had been bruised and bruised, and the pain in his feet took three or two days to go away.

Seeing Zhang Pu grinning but not daring to scream in pain, Xiao Qiao felt a little more comfortable in her heart. She finally glanced at her father, remembering the scene when she said goodbye to her brother privately this morning, sighed inwardly, and turned around. Go out.

On both sides of the road at the gate of Qiao's mansion, there were people standing in new clothes early. Seeing that Xiao Qiao finally appeared, she was as beautiful as a god. She knelt down and shouted in unison.

It turned out that according to the current marriage system, the bridegroom of the man must come in person to show respect. He didn't want Wei Shao to show up, so he only sent Wei Liang to greet him, which was a bit disappointing to the people of Dongjun. The Qiao family was well-received by the local people, and the people were grateful to Xiao Qiao for marrying him, which ended a war. They did not want the Wei family to despise the envoy's daughter. Until today, they are all full of energy, and Xiao Qiao steps up. After the wedding car, along the way, people kept throwing melons and fruits into the car, so that before leaving the city, the melons and fruits filled the car, and when they were more than ten miles out of the city gate, there were still people kneeling behind them, singing and wishing. Even Wei Liang, who had always been arrogant, seemed to be looking at him later.

People are not grass and trees. In this situation, Xiao Qiao, who was originally unwilling to get married, was also moved. Suddenly, she seemed to realize the mentality of why Da Qiao was unwilling to walk away. After leaving the city, holding the apple just handed by a three-year-old child, he fell silently into contemplation.

"Stop-"

Xiao Qiao's wedding car traveled more than 30 miles, and when the wilderness was gradually left on both sides, a fast horse suddenly caught up behind him, and someone shouted to stop.

Wei Liang immediately ordered his entourage to draw a knife to be on guard. Xiao Qiao recognized the voice of his younger brother Qiao Ci, and hurriedly stepped out to explain. Wei Liang looked back and recognized that it was indeed the son of the Qiao family, so he ordered the knife to stop.

Joe come down. Qiao Ci rolled over from the horse, ran forward, grabbed her hand and said, "Sister! I have something else to tell you. I hate myself for being useless. I can only watch you get married like this today. Don't worry, sister, brother swears to the emperor today that he will strengthen himself in the future, so that you can rely on him, if Wei Shao treats you slowly, brother will take you back and never let you be bullied by outsiders!"

This fourteen-year-old stubborn boy is still in the stage of changing his voice, and his lips have only just sprouted a circle of light hairs, but the words he said at this moment were loud and clear.

His words were sonorous, word by word, sent into Wei Liang's ears with the wind, Wei Liang did not speak, only sneered.

Xiao Qiao didn't expect his brother to chase so far, just to say such a word to himself, remembering that in his previous life, he sacrificed himself to let himself and Liu Yan get away. down.

"A-di! A-jie understands. A-jie will live a good life, and remember to be filial to your father on behalf of A-jie in the future!"

Joey nodded.

Seeing the two siblings reluctant to part, Wei Liang finally became impatient and urged.

Xiao Qiao let go of Qiao Ci's hand, urged him to go back, and got on the road again by himself.

Qiao Ci's figure stood on the side of the road, gradually turning into a black spot, and finally completely disappeared from sight.

When Xiao Qiao turned her head, she saw far ahead, at the end of the gray winter sky, a lonely wild goose was flying south.
