On the wedding day, even the wind seemed to be congratulating Shen Zhixi for getting his wish.
The warm breeze accompanied by the gentle sunshine added a lot of joy.
The wedding banquet was not luxurious, and there were no guests. This was what Tang Zhou meant. Those outside laughed at Shen Zhixi and Liu Yuan in the city for their innocence. Most of their blessings were not sincere, and there was no need to be extravagant for them.
Tang Zhou still said that he would definitely give her a grand wedding ceremony with ten miles of red makeup in the future.
Although Shen Zhixi responded with a smile, he didn't take it to heart.
It's not that they don't believe it, it's that there is no future between them.
"Our lady is just beautiful. Even if she wears a wedding dress with such rough workmanship, it can't cover up her beauty."
Shen Zhixi sat in front of the dressing mirror, looking at the gold tassels hanging on the temples, with a slight smile on his lips. I didn't think much of it at first, but when I put on this wedding dress, I still felt a little flutter in my heart.
"Although the clothes are rough, my makeup should look better. After all... this is really only once, and I will never have the opportunity to wear a red wedding dress again in the future."
Hearing what she said, the smile on Yuanyang's mouth suddenly disappeared, and he became a little sad.
"Silly girl."
Shen Zhixi patted her hand, took the eyebrow pencil from her hand, and faced the bronze mirror to prepare to use it himself.
Just as he was about to put pen to paper, his hand suddenly shook.
Immediately afterwards, fear slowly appeared on his face, and when he turned around suddenly, a bit of cold murderous intent burst out from his eyes.
"What's wrong, miss?"
Yuanyang didn't know why. He lowered his head and looked at the bronze mirror and was also startled.
"Fang…Fang Rou?"
The mirror on the table is facing the window at the back, and it still shows the scenery outside the fence. There is a person standing outside the fence, a woman who is looking carefully.
It was Qin Mu's cousin, Fang Rou.
"Miss, why is she here?"
Shen Zhixi turned around and instinctively looked in the direction of Tang Zhou. Tang Zhou's door and windows were wide open. As long as Fang Rou stood outside and shouted, even just saying "Miss Shen" would be easily exposed.
"What should I do, miss?"
"What should I do? No one can ruin my big day."
After saying that, he stood up, gently opened the door and looked at the opposite door. No Tang Zhou appeared outside. He breathed a sigh of relief and walked down the steps. He went around to the back of the house and took some firewood from the pile. The thickest one went out from the rear fence gate and went around the front yard.
In the front yard, Fang Rou has opened the fence door.
She walked in slowly and cautiously, fearfully and expectantly.
After being sent away by Shen Zhixi yesterday, she was unwilling to give up. She secretly returned to Shen's house and wanted to use Qin Mu as an excuse to ask for an explanation. However, she happened to bump into Shen Zhixi getting on the carriage. She followed secretly and watched the carriage with her own eyes. Out of the city. It was almost dark at that time, and she was curious about Shen Zhixi's whereabouts, so she followed him out of the city.
The farther the carriage went, the more remote it became, with no human beings anywhere.
Besides, it was getting dark again, and she was afraid that she would not dare to come back alone, so she wrote down the direction of Shen Zhixi's carriage and decided to come quietly to look for him during the day today. She had long felt that something was wrong with Shen Zhixi. If he didn't have another man, why would he suddenly ignore Qin Mu.
Therefore, she wanted to find evidence that Shen Zhixi was sleeping with other men.
She had a feeling that Shen Zhixi had a man outside.
However, when I followed yesterday, I only had a general direction, but no specific purpose. The mountain forest is so big, and I finally saw a bamboo house, but I couldn't confirm that it was Shen Zhixi's territory. What if I entered the wrong door and was chased away by someone I didn't know? It's not good to go out, that's why I'm so sneaky.
She took two steps, stopped one, and slowly groped inside.
Precisely because he was concentrating on several house doors in the courtyard, he did not notice anyone approaching from outside the fence.
Halfway through, he suddenly stopped.
Because a man suddenly appeared in front of the window of the bamboo house opposite.
A man in wedding clothes.
The man's heavenly appearance could make people fall for him at just one glance. She even forgot to breathe as she stared at him. After a while, he realized that his intrusion would be discovered, but he realized something was wrong again. The man seemed... invisible. He had clearly looked in the direction where she was, but he didn't seem to notice her.
Just as he was wondering, there was a sound of sand behind him.
She was startled and turned around suddenly. What caught her eye was a thick matchstick.
"ah!"
When he screamed, it was already too late.
The matchstick hit her on the head, causing her eyes to blacken and she fainted.
But this cry still alarmed Tang Zhou in the room.
He stood behind the window and looked here intently. Although he couldn't see it, he couldn't hide the loud scream.
"vanilla!"
Shen Zhixi felt that his heart was about to jump out of his chest, so he simply reacted quickly.
"Vanilla, come here, I twisted my foot." She pretended that she twisted her foot, and then she screamed in pain.
Looking down, Fang Rou fainted and there was blood on her forehead.
She was a little scared, afraid of hitting someone to death.
"Sister, are you okay? Didn't I tell you to stay in the room? If you want something to eat, I will go to the kitchen to get it for you. You are the bride today, so just stay in the room and wait for the auspicious time."
Yuanyang's reaction is also very fast, and he can just open his mouth to lie. Maybe he has been trained during these days.
She ran out the door and rushed to Shen Zhixi before Tang Zhou. She squatted down and touched Fang Rou's nose and found that she was still breathing. She was relieved. She quickly stood up and took the stick from Shen Zhixi's hand and whispered: "Don't worry, Miss, she's not dead, and Mr. Tang has come out."
Shen Zhixi came back to his senses in fear and looked at Tang Zhou who had stepped out of the threshold and forced himself to calm down.
"Tie her up with hemp rope, put a cloth strip in her mouth and drag her outside first."
She whispered to Yuanyang and raised her feet to face Tang Zhou.
"Lily of the valley?"
"I'm fine."
He ran to the door of Tang Zhou's room and looked back. Yuanyang had already hurried to the kitchen to find a hemp rope. When he saw that Fang Rou was still fainting, he felt relieved and reached out to support Tang Zhou to lead her into the house.
"Your feet..."
"I'm fine. I just sprained a bit. It hurt a little at the time, but it wasn't sprained."
"real?"
"Really, if you don't believe me, just touch it."
She hurriedly pushed Tang Zhou through the door, which made Tang Zhou notice something unusual and asked: "If it's not there, it's not. Why are you pushing me through the door in such a hurry? What's outside?"
"No, no."
She felt guilty and stuttered.
Tang Zhou sensitively caught her weak energy, turned around and stepped out of the door again.
"Who is it, your aunt, or the hunter?"
After hearing his question, Shen Zhixi felt relieved.
If that's the case, it's a good lie.
"Orion, it's that Orion, but he's gone. After I came back from the city yesterday, I went to his house and told him that I wanted to marry someone else. Yesterday, he didn't believe that anyone else would want me. , so I wanted to come over and take a look. But he has to keep his face and not make trouble, otherwise he will be embarrassed if word spreads that he wants to rob a woman who has lost her innocence. "
