The eldest married as a merchant's wife

Chapter 32
A wooden arched bridge connects Chunxi Town to the east and west banks.The wooden arch corridor bridge, the bridge is built on the river, the corridor is built on the bridge, and the shrine is enshrined in the center of the bridge, which is also called "the bridge house" by the people of Fucheng.

The bridge in Chunxi Town is called "Jinzhi". The bridge body has been washed by wind and rain for hundreds of years. The wood has turned gray and mottled with green moss. From a distance, it looks like an ancient and quiet pavilion.At this time, it was halfway through Shenshi, the sunset in the sky was hidden by dark clouds, and the figures walked on the bridge deck arched by the crescent moon, and drifted through the wooden windows. That little bit of green became the most beautiful between black and white. embellishment.

Fearing that she would disappear suddenly, Geng Wu couldn't help speeding up his pace.

The sky was getting darker and darker, and the clouds were overcast. Xiu He wiped her skirt and walked quickly, the smoke from the cooking was billowing in the distance, and there was no one around, only the sound of the river splashing under her feet.

She specially picked this time to look for Geng Wu, so as not to be seen by idlers.But the sunset that was still there just now suddenly disappeared, and a storm was about to come, so I was inexplicably flustered.

"Dong dong dong", a steady step stepped on the wooden bridge deck to make a muffled sound. Xiuhe looked back and saw Geng Wu walking towards her with strides.Seeing her stop, he also stopped, but now he changed into a fresh and straight green dress, which suppressed the wolf-savage spirit that was dripping with sweat just now, and gave birth to some of the old style.

Xiuhe felt inexplicably certain, she frowned and asked, "What are you following me for?"

"It's getting late, I'm afraid you won't be safe on the road, so my mother asked me to see you off." Geng Wu walked up to Xiu He in a few steps, still with that expressionless wolf face.

Knowing Mrs. Geng's misunderstanding about it, Xiuhe couldn't help being embarrassed: "There is no need to deliver, and it's not the first time to walk alone. I used to deliver wine to Dad, and I walked farther than this."

But Geng Wu didn't listen to her, he kept walking behind Xiu He.

She just likes to pretend, and he can see through her restlessness at a glance.

The burly body was close at hand, and the hem of the clothes rustled in the wind.Xiuhe walked in front, only to be flustered.

She was afraid that Geng Wu was watching her walking posture.Her feet were not bound, and she walked a little faster than ordinary women, and she couldn't help shaking her hips when she was fast.Aunt Hong always laughed at this and made fun of her, laughing that she was more "comfortable" than the women in Yichun Courtyard.Xiuhe was afraid that if Gengwu watched too much, he would think of another place that should have been forgotten long ago...

Xiu He took two steps, turned her head and glared at Geng Wu: "Then you go ahead."

It was obviously to annoy him, but how could he hear it but it sounded coquettish, inexplicably like a newlywed returning home urging her husband.

Geng Wu was in a trance, the corner of his mouth curled up quietly, and he strode forward with a solemn expression.

But he walked slowly, keeping a step away from Xiuhe.

He is tall, light-hearted, and has stood out among boys since he was a teenager.Xiuhe followed behind him, feeling inexplicably at ease.But she didn't know that one tall and one short, one front and one behind, it was more like husband and wife following each other.

Occasionally, a villager who didn't know Xiuhe passed by, and couldn't help but look back a few more times: "Hey, isn't this young master Geng San? I heard that you brought a little daughter-in-law back from the north?"

"Oh, no, she lives in this town." Xiuhe actually heard Geng Wu answer like this, damn it, he only explained half of it, obviously he could say: Oh, no, it's just a shopkeeper called by a certain shop to deliver wine girl.

Xiu He paused, and said to Geng Wu's back: "Thank you last time, you didn't pick me out in public. Otherwise, two people who have nothing to do with each other would add a few more confusions for nothing."

Geng Wu looked back at Xiu He: "Our Geng family acts in an open and aboveboard way, and we don't need to use a woman's innocence for personal gain. What's more... I didn't mean to 'bully' you."

Xiuhe's cheeks were flushed by Geng Wu's sight, and she was speechless.
