save the bachelors

Chapter 4977 4980 [The groom ran away]

"Wow, Brother Zhu, she is so fierce~" Xiao Longnu couldn't bear to say when she saw this scene.

"Shh~" Xiang Nan quickly stopped her.

But Miao Miaomiao had already heard it by now.

"Who dares to speak ill of me behind my back?" She lifted the curtain angrily and saw Xiaolongnu at a glance, and then she saw the pearls hanging around her neck.

"Wow, such a big pearl is really rare." Miao Miaomiao's eyes suddenly lit up, and then she waved her hand and smiled, "Little sister, you are right, I was wrong. Well, you all come in."

Hearing her say this, all the servants rushed in hurriedly.

"Hey, don't push around without thinking. You're squeezing this girl." Miao Miaomiao scolded again, then came to Xiao Longnu, took her hand and said with a smile, "Little sister, I'm sorry, our servants are ignorant. I asked them to leave just now because I was afraid that they would squeeze you."

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay." Xiaolongnu shook her head and smiled.

"Little sister is really beautiful and kind-hearted." Miao Miaomiao said with a smile, "Little sister, what's your name?"

"My name is Xiaolongnu." Xiaolongnu spoke directly without any ulterior motives.

"Little sister, your name is so nice." Miao Miaomiao clapped her hands and laughed, "My name is Miao Miaomiao, you can call me 'Sister Miaomiao'."

"Sister Miaomiao~" Xiaolongnu called with a smile.

"Hey~" Miao Miaomiao agreed readily, and then said with a smile, "Xiao Longnu, where are you from?"

"My home is in... hehe, I can't tell you." Xiao Longnu was about to say the East China Sea, but then stopped.

The Dragon Palace in the East China Sea is a secret place and cannot be told to outsiders.

"It's okay, it's okay." Miao Miaomiao waved her hand and smiled.

From the huge pearl on Xiao Long Nu's neck, she guessed that she must have an extraordinary origin. She must be a royal noble or the daughter of a wealthy family. It was not surprising that she refused to reveal her origins.

And when she and Xiang Nan walked together, they were either siblings or lovers, or there was a high possibility that they eloped.

"Great~" Miao Miaomiao thought to herself, and then took Xiao Longnu's hand, "Xiao Longnu, what are you going to do next?"

"I was originally planning to go home, but I didn't expect it to rain~" Xiaolongnu explained.

"How about this, it's fate that we sisters meet today." Miao Miaomiao said with a smile, "How about this, you come to my wedding and be my bridesmaid?"

"Be a bridesmaid?! I've never been a bridesmaid before. Is it fun?" Xiao Longnu asked curiously.

"It's fun, fun, so fun." Miao Miaomiao immediately laughed and said, "Come on, come on~"

"Brother Zhu~" Although Xiaolongnu really wanted to agree, she still looked at Xiang Nan first.

"Since they have invited us, let's go." Although Xiang Nan wanted to refuse and didn't want to get involved in these messes, since Xiaolongnu really wanted to go, he had to change his mind.

"Okay, okay, let's come together, let's come together." Miao Miaomiao said with a smile immediately.

……

After a while, the heavy rain stopped.

The wedding procession set off again.

Xiang Nan and Xiao Longnu followed Miao Miaomiao's sedan chair and walked towards the city together.

"Hey, Brother Zhu, this is my first time to be a bridesmaid at a wedding." Xiao Longnu said happily.

For her, this is a really novel experience. "As long as you think it's fun," Xiang Nan also smiled.

"It's quite fun." Xiao Longnu nodded.

The wedding procession entered the city quickly with music and drums playing along the way. But before they reached Zhu's mansion, they saw a man in red running towards them, panting.

"Wow, he's wearing red, is he the groom?" Xiao Longnu said immediately, "He's so impatient that he can't even wait for the bride to come in, so he runs out to greet her. Sister Miaomiao, you're so lucky~"

"Hmph, you are usually stupid and silly, but now you are so anxious~" Seeing her say that, Miao Miaomiao couldn't help but feel a little proud.

"I'll go meet him~" Xiao Long Nu said with a smile, and then went to meet him, "Hey, okay, okay, don't run away, I know you're anxious, but don't worry, look, the bride is already here."

"No, groom, groom..." the man panted, "Run...run..."

"You've run a long, long way, haven't you?" Xiao Long Nu said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm here, I can help you with everything~"

"No, the groom...ran away..." the man said breathlessly.

"What does 'the groom ran away' mean? Aren't you the groom yourself?" Xiao Longnu asked in surprise.

"Who ran away, who ran away?" At this time, Miao Miaomiao got out of the sedan and asked.

"Cousin, Fengchun ran away~" the man said with a sad face, "I don't know why he became stupid, and then ran away~"

"You can't even protect a fool. You are such a coward and useless thing." When Miao Miaomiao heard this, she felt like the cooked duck was about to fly away, and she immediately got angry and cursed.

"We're going to get married, but the groom is missing?" Xiao Long Nu was surprised, then she smiled and said, "Oh, I see, did you hide the groom on purpose so that we can find him? If we find him, we can get married, right?"

"Hey, stop talking nonsense. We are not children. Why should we hide him? The groom ran away by himself." The man said angrily.

"Oh, the groom ran away by himself." Xiao Longnu nodded.

"Oh, just shut up and stop making more trouble." The man said depressedly. He was already helpless enough.

"Don't talk nonsense, this is my good sister, Xiao Longnu." Miao Miaomiao stopped her, "Xiao Longnu, this is Zhu Laozhong. Zhu Laozhong, gather all the people immediately and find the groom for me."

"Oh, oh, okay~" Zhu Laozhong nodded, and then called on the people from the Zhu family and the Miao family to search for Zhu Fengchun's whereabouts together.

Xiaolongnu was a kind-hearted person, so she naturally would not ignore it and joined the search team.

……

"Brother Zhu, why did the groom run away?" Xiao Longnu asked Xiang Nan in confusion, "Shouldn't marriage be a happy event?"

As far as she knew, there were four major happy events in the folk, namely, rain after a long drought, meeting an old friend in a foreign land, wedding night, and passing the imperial examination. Since it was a happy event, why did the groom run away? She really didn't understand.

"Marriage is of course a happy event, but it also depends on who you marry." Xiang Nan explained with a smile, "If the man is in love with the woman, and the woman is willing to marry, it is a perfect match, and a match made in heaven, then it is naturally a great joy in life. But if you marry someone you don't like or love, it will be torture."

"Doesn't the groom love Sister Miaomiao? I think Sister Miaomiao is a good person, pretty and gentle~" Xiaolongnu asked puzzledly.

"How can it be gentle when she chased all the servants out of the pavilion?" Xiang Nan pouted and said, "She is only gentle to you, but not necessarily to others.

Didn't you hear how she called the groom just now, "idiot", is that a nice word? It shows how bad her attitude towards the groom is, so it's no wonder he ran away."

"If that's the case, why did Sister Miaomiao want to bring him back?" Xiaolongnu asked puzzled.

"Of course it's for the Zhu family's money." Xiang Nan explained, "The Zhu family is a well-known wealthy family in the local area. They own more than 100,000 acres of fertile land and hundreds of cattle, horses, pigs and sheep..."

"Ah?!" Xiaolongnu couldn't help but be surprised.
