Chapter 627

Rushing back to her small courtyard, Mrs. Li hurried into the Buddhist hall and knelt down on the futon with a plop.

Holding the rosary in one hand and tapping the wooden fish with the other, she closed her eyes and recited the Diamond Sutra five times before she felt her mind calm down.

"My lady." The servant girl whispered, "You are pregnant, so don't keep kneeling like this. It's not good for the child in your womb."

The child... By the way, she has a child in her belly!
Li Shi covered her still flat lower abdomen with both hands, only to feel that her heart began to heave up and down again.

However, compared to the ups and downs in front of my aunt and sister-in-law, it is still much smaller.Maybe it's the result of me reading the scriptures for half a day just now!
Moreover, before she knew it, she felt a trace of anticipation floating in her heart - this is her child!From now on, they will be her relatives connected by blood.

Ever since her father and brother died in battle, and her mother and sisters committed suicide one after another to avoid being insulted by the Anshi Rebellion, she was finally about to welcome a close relative of her own flesh and blood.

Although, the origin of this child is a bit unspeakable...

I still remember that day when she was newly married, she was sent by her aunt and sisters in the clan. I heard that the Cui family arranged a big battle, which was only slightly inferior to the standard for Cui Jiedu's eldest son to marry a wife a month ago.However, despite the din of gongs, drums and people outside, her heart is still calm.Even after getting into the bridal sedan chair, she still tightly held the rosary in her hand and did not let go.

"You... hey! If you want to take it, then take it! Your aunt said, everything is up to you." Before getting on the bridal sedan chair, Dang saw that she was still tightly grasping the string of clothes that she never left her hands. When praying the beads, my aunt just sighed softly and didn't force her to do anything.

Later, when he entered Cui's house, he worshiped the hall and spread the tents. After all the etiquette, he was so tired that he almost bent over.She once heard from the sisters in the clan that on the day of their marriage, they were all so nervous that they forgot all the things the nanny taught them at first, and they could only keep their heads blank at the mercy of others.It wasn't until all the ceremonies were over and everyone was sitting in the new house that they realized that everything had already been done?
However, she didn't feel that way at all.

She kept in mind what her aunt had taught her before, every step, every step, was performed perfectly in accordance with etiquette.One after another, she can achieve perfection by herself without the guidance of people around her.Xi Niang next to her was amazed at her concentration, but only she knew it in her heart - all this was just because she didn't care.This series of rituals meant nothing to her.Except that she couldn't see it with her own eyes, she felt like an indifferent spectator, just cooperating with everyone's performance out of boredom.

After everything was over, she was sent back to her new house, and she finally took off all her clothes.She wanted to change into her usual clothes, but Xi Niang held her down desperately. "Young madam, today is your big day. How can you still wear such dusty clothes? This is disrespectful to your in-laws! The Cui family has a great career, and now the Cui Jiedu envoy is in full swing. You have a big heart, and if someone hits a bad day on this happy day, who do you think can laugh? As a new wife, at least you should restrain yourself at the beginning!"

Bridesmaid is right.She felt that she was being too capricious in doing so, so she obediently changed into freshly made bright clothes.It's just that, after putting on the clothes, she felt weird no matter what, she was very uncomfortable all over, and she almost couldn't even sit still.

Unknowingly, she withdrew the rosary from her wrist again, and began to recite scriptures in her heart.After reading it several times, she felt much calmer.

When Xi Niang saw this, she couldn't help yelling again.Fortunately, there was a servant girl from the Cui family nearby, so the servant girl said: "It's okay. Madam has already told you, as long as you can save face, it's fine. Since there is no one else here, you can do whatever the second young lady wants."

Xi Niang just gave up.

Hearing this, Mrs. Li felt a little grateful for this aunt who hadn't met yet.It's just that the movement of twisting the rosary in his hand has not stopped.

When it was almost Haishi, there was a sudden commotion outside, and a little maid ran in and said, "Mr. Erlang is back!"

Everyone in the room got busy, and she also put the rosary back under Xi Niang's urging.

After that, there was a series of etiquette.

The newlyweds have done it honestly, but they just don't care too much.

Li Shi thought that she had no intention of this marriage, but when she saw her new husband-in-law, she realized that his performance was even more perfunctory than her!

He squinted his eyes the whole time, trying to sleep or not.Even when Xi Niang repeatedly reminded him to exchange glasses of wine, he didn't realize it. He just took a hasty sip and started chasing people away: "Is it all over? Hurry up and get out when you're done, we're going to sleep!"

After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but glance at the bride, and quickly backed away.

As soon as the person on the front foot left, Mr. Da Lang on the back foot took off his boots and rolled onto the bed.

Pulling the brocade quilt to cover himself, he has already closed his eyes.Suddenly, as if thinking of something, he opened his eyes suddenly, and said to Li Shi who was still sitting on the head of the bed like a dead tree: "Now there are no outsiders, you can do whatever you want. But don't make too much noise. I'm going to go to bed."

"Oh." She responded softly, and saw the man close his eyes, and soon fell asleep.

At this moment, Li Shi found that her heart, which had been quiet for a long time, was slightly disturbed.

This man... She remembered that it was he who offered to marry her, and the reason was very clear from the beginning.And when she heard these remarks from her aunt, to be honest, there was a little turmoil in her heart at that time.

She was shocked and funny at the time.

She never thought that there would be such a man in the world.In order to sleep, I can sacrifice everything else, even my own marriage!And his family actually approved him!

"It is said that Mrs. Cui Liu has indeed given up on him. This Mr. Cui Erlang has loved to sleep since he was born in the womb, and this hobby has not changed after so many years. As long as he can let him sleep, he is willing to do anything you ask him to do. They thought, such a son, if he marries a daughter-in-law, wouldn’t he be a good little lady? So, at this age, the family has not engaged him because they don’t know what kind of lady to choose. Only in this way can he be worthy of him and not be spoiled. Until recently, he proposed to marry you. The elders in the family thought about his words and thought it was quite good, so they agreed. The two of you can be regarded as partners for a lifetime. When you grow up, adopt a child from his brother, isn't this also a home? Anyway, it's better than you staying in the temple alone, miserable alone." That's what my aunt told her at the time .

In fact, no matter where she goes, isn't she always alone?This husband and son-in-law have made it clear that after they get married, everyone will live separately.

However, since doing so can reassure the relatives who care about her, she has no objection.Anyway, as long as you have a heart towards Buddha, you can practice wherever you go.She thought so, so she agreed to the marriage.

And now, when she saw the real face of her real sleepy husband-in-law, she couldn't help being surprised again.

The rumors did not deceive her!This person really regards sleeping as a major career in his life!
Before she knew it, her eyes moved to the sleeping face.

He was born very well, which she had heard from her tribe long ago.She had already seen him with her own eyes when he went to Li's mansion to greet his relatives today.I still remember that the sisters were still amazed by his appearance for a long time.However, no matter how good-looking he is, in her eyes, he will be nothing but a bone in a hundred years, so there is nothing surprising.However, I couldn't bear it when A-mei kept talking and kept talking when she sent her out.

"Sister, the brother-in-law of the Cui family is really good! I heard that he looks very similar to Mrs. Cui Liu, but his face is not feminine at all, but masculine and stable. He is really good-looking! If you have a child, you should also Can it be this pretty?"

So, the words of the sisters echoed in her ears again, and she couldn't help but began to observe his appearance.

His facial features are really good, the standard oval face, the facial lines are smooth and soft, but there is no lack of strength.Coupled with long hands and long legs, he really is a beautiful man who makes people fall in love at first sight.

But it's a pity that this handsome man only loves sleeping and not beauties.Otherwise, with his face, I don't know how many little ladies will be seduced to death.

What a pity!

There was such a soft sigh in her heart, and she was slightly startled again—it seemed that she often heard relatives use this sigh on her like this?
They really are a couple, they are both so worrying to the family, and so go their own way.

There were a few light knocks on the door panel outside.Li quickly turned around: "Who is it?"

"Second Young Madam, it's getting late, stop chanting scriptures, and get some rest! Tomorrow morning, I have to serve tea to my uncle and aunt, and I have to meet relatives, friends and elders in the clan!" A servant girl's voice came from outside the door.

Li Shi was startled.

Looking up quickly, she realized that the pair of dragon and phoenix wedding candles on the candlestick had already been burned, and half of her fingers were long.

She actually stared at this man for so long?
She quickly bowed her head: "Got it, I'm going to sleep now."

She quickly lowered her head and recited the scriptures again, then took off her shoes and lay down on the bed, still twirling the rosary and recited the scriptures several times to calm her down completely, before she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

The next day, she was naturally very busy.

The clan of the Cui family in Boling is much larger than that of the Li family in Taiyuan.The young couple got up early in the morning and kept busy until dark before they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After returning home and having dinner with the family, Auntie left Mr. Erlang to talk, and she came back alone.There were not so many outsiders around, so she was also relieved, and went to the newly built Buddhist hall nearby to chant sutras.

Not long after, Mr. Erlang came back.

Still newly married, she couldn't really ignore her husband, so she hurried back.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw that very good-looking man raised his head and flashed an unusually gorgeous smile at her.

Suddenly, she felt a blur in front of her eyes, and her mood began to fluctuate again.

While chanting sutras in her heart, she walked forward with a calm face: "What did Auntie tell you?"

"Yes! A Niang said, my performance in the clan was so bad today that I didn't even pay attention to you. Although our marriage is different from other people's, I can't ignore you. So she scolded me severely, and told me that I must behave well when I return home tomorrow, and give you a good face. You see, if I use that smile to deal with your natal family, they will Not satisfied?" Mr. Erlang said immediately.

It turned out that he was thinking about returning home tomorrow!

Mrs. Li breathed a sigh of relief, then nodded and said, "Very good. You can do it this way."

"That's good, the matter is settled like this!" Erlang Jun nodded and waved to her again.

Mrs. Li walked over slowly. "What else is there?"

"It's like this. I think, I've been laughing by myself all the time, but you stood motionless beside me. Isn't that scene too weird? Let your family see it, will they think it's the two of us?" God bullied you? So, why don't you show two smiling faces?"

Li was taken aback. "I can't laugh anymore."

"I didn't ask you to smile at everyone, just smile at your uncles and aunts. You don't have to really smile, just make a smile. I am very good at this. Come on, let me teach you. "As he spoke, he grinned at her, "That's it, learn from it."

Li Shi still shook his head. "I really can't."

"It's impossible for you not to know this. As long as you know the right method, it's very simple!" Erlang Jun said, and he started to help her.

Li Shi wanted to retreat.But thinking that he was doing it for his own good, he still stood there and let him bend the corners of his mouth for him.

The two of them tossed for a long time, and she found that - she really knew how to laugh!
"Look, it's very simple!" When you're done, Mr. Erlang clapped his hands, "You can do it like this tomorrow. Well, the task is completed, and I'm going to sleep!"

Just fell down again.

This speed... Li Shi was inexplicably stunned.
