Chapter 412 Before waking up from the dream
While he was speaking, several people had already arrived at the side of a luxurious carriage. A warrior quickly stepped forward and stretched out his hand to lift the curtain.
Some memories of the carriage surfaced.
Xu Disheng's eyes became a little clearer, and he lowered his body and entered the carriage.
"Du Yan, come up too, I have something to ask you."
Du Yan was stunned, and he was extremely sensitive to the fact that the young master seemed to have undergone some changes in a moment, but at this time, he had no time to think about it, and quickly shook his head and said: "This is not in line with etiquette, you must not do it! If the young master has any instructions, I can just follow you on horseback by the curtain."
Xu Disheng nodded and did not force it.
This is a small town on the edge of Chu'an County. It is not close to Chu'an County where the Xu family is located. Even if you rely on a horse-drawn carriage to travel there, it will take at least two hours.
As he approached Chu'an County, Xu Disheng gradually recalled more memories, but there was still a trace of doubt in his heart.
Last time I took Du Yan and others to visit this beautiful town, but for some reason I got lost among the crowd. I also lost most of my memory. When I woke up, I was in the bustling city. , and even walked to the water area where Qinglian River is located without knowing it, which is really weird.
garrison time.
"Sir, we're here."
As Du Yan's tired voice reached his ears, the curtain of the carriage was opened.
Xu Disheng got off the carriage, and what came into view was a tall and magnificent gatehouse. On the plaque at the top, there were two powerful characters engraved on it.
Xu Mansion.
Under the respectful gazes of many servants, he slowly walked into the gatehouse, and memories about this place emerged one after another.
"Sheng'er, why have you been out for so long this time?" A lively laughter came from afar, and a gentle and elegant middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes walked closer, surrounded by several maids.
It was Xu Yuanwai, a great philanthropist who abandoned his official position and entered business more than ten years ago, and a legend was spread about this incident.
Du Yan and the others standing on one side lowered their heads deeply, not daring to say a word.
After all, if Xu Disheng tells the story of his encounter with the tail monster, Du Yan and others' crime of ineffective protection will be truly realized. Although Xu Yuanwai has always been charitable and almost never bullies the people, he has grown up in the Xu Mansion. But Du Yan knew deeply that it was far from what it seemed on the surface.
Showing such kindness.
"This time I went to some remote places that I have never been to before, so I was delayed for a while," Xu Disheng nodded and said, "I heard that a marriage has been decided for me in the house recently?"
Xu Yuanwai brought Xu Disheng into the main hall of the mansion. He sat down at the top first and said with a smile: "Yes, Mr. Miao of the Miao Mansion mentioned this matter first when he had tea with me the other day. My second daughter, Miao Qiongyan, is about to get married. She is only fourteen years old. She is a good match for you. Sheng'er, what do you think?"
Miao Qiongyan.
Xu Disheng was noncommittal, but in his heart he was still thinking about the sudden disappearance of his previous memory.
"Sheng'er?" Xu Yuanwai called softly.
"Then it's settled," Xu Disheng nodded. He had been exposed to the in-laws since he grew up in the Xu family. He knew this kind of in-laws very well. It was just for profit. "If there is nothing else, I will go first. .”
Xu Yuanwai obviously understood his character very well, he shook his head and said: "Go ahead."
Although the tone used was a discussion, in fact, there was no discussion at all. It was just to inform Xu Disheng.
Xu Disheng naturally knew about this, so he agreed directly without any nonsense.
Unlike other squires, Xu Yuanwai has only married one official wife in his family. This has resulted in the fact that Xu Disheng is the only legitimate son in the Xu family, and he has no control over his in-laws.
…
It's like a dream.
…
Xu Disheng, wearing complicated and luxurious red clothes, opened the door.
Under the etiquette at this time, a woman would not be allowed to show her face until the actual day of marriage. Therefore, this night in the bridal chamber was also the first time Xu Disheng met her.
"Ms. sir."
His voice was very pleasant, and it came out softly from the inner room.
Opening the bead curtain, what came into view was a girl dressed in bright red clothes, with a red hijab covering her head, sitting quietly on the couch.
"Are you Miao Qiongyan?"
Xu Disheng lifted his red hijab.
"Ms. sir, do you know who you are?"
The girl smiled brightly, as if she had known Xu Disheng for a long time.
She was extremely beautiful, and she was even more carefully decorated at this time. Her long black eyelashes were trembling slightly, and her clear and beautiful eyes were looking at him steadily.
Xu Disheng took a deep look at her, then turned his head slightly and said, "Of course I am Xu Disheng, why would I ask such a stupid question?"
But Miao Qiongyan just looked at his face without blinking, as if talking to herself, and murmured: "This is the first time since I was born that I have really spoken to you."
She gently fiddled with the gauze sleeves of her bright red dress, and her green silk hair hung down like a waterfall.
"What I know about you is that you are so radiant that you dominate the contemporary world. You can be called the most arrogant person in the world."
"But I know clearly that you are lonely and you are not happy at all."
"In this terrible calamity, you are destined to be crushed by the true spirit, without any power to resist."
"For countless years, you have been practicing hard day after day, and you have never slacked off in the slightest, and you have never even had any enjoyment."
"I know all about your pride, your perseverance, your brilliance, your loneliness, and the loneliness hidden deep in your heart, but... if you were to disappear here, all of these would be forgotten by the world."
"Never to be remembered again."
"Even if the three heavens and nine realms forget you, I dare not forget you."
"Do you know what my accompanying spiritual light is?" Miao Qiongyan raised her head, her eyes filled with tears before she knew it, "It's fate, it's the power of fate."
Xu Disheng was silent for a long time, looked into the girl's misty eyes, and said, "What on earth are you talking about?"
Miao Qiongyan tilted her head slightly, leaned carefully on Xu Disheng's shoulder, and called softly: "Mr.
The fragrance of a girl's hair lingers in her nose.
Xu Disheng lowered his head, only to find that Miao Qiongyan's dark eyelashes were slightly drooped, covering her clear eyes, and she had obviously fallen asleep quietly.
His shoulders were a little sore. Xu Disheng looked up at the bright white moon in the sky outside the window, feeling a little dazed.
Stayed up all night.
…
thereafter.
Miao Qiongyan never mentioned that night again.
…
"Ms. sir, do you think this hosta looks good?"
"Ms. sir, can I hug you?"
"Mother, I want to... sleep on your shoulder. This way, I don't have to think about anything."
"Ms. sir..."
…
ten years.
