Outside the window, the drizzle fell on the ground paved with bluestone slabs. The ground was wet, and a few petals were scattered on the green grass.

Changsun Zhi was sitting on the embroidered couch, and the bronze stove on the table was still burning with light spices. Her eyes fell on the outside of the window, shaking the delicate fan made of agarwood, but she didn't know what to think. something.

In another month, she will get married and go to a strange place to have a new life, but getting married doesn't make her feel half happy.

Most of the women in this world marry after they are young. It is not uncommon for people like her to get married at her age, but it is very rare, let alone in wealthy families.The so-called asking for marriage is to highlight the nobleness of a woman. If her parents are still there, she must not be willing to marry another woman at such an age.

The memories before the age of eight are undoubtedly full of good memories. Their family lived in Luoyang. When the peonies bloomed, her father would always lead her by the hand and walk on the bustling streets, watching the crowds come and go. It was a scene of prosperity. My mother is also very gentle, she likes to hug her and be intimate, and changes her ways to change new clothes and jewelry every day. At that time, my brother was mischievous and always annoyed his father. He was not as calm and calm as he is now. But she hoped that he would still be the one who liked to cause trouble back then, at least he wouldn't have to work so hard.

But all of this can't go back, their father is gone, and they have to live in their uncle's house.Even though uncle treated them as well as before, it still couldn't change the fact that they depended on others.They have to live cautiously, and the elder brother studies hard every day, so that the family can have a better life.

I heard from my uncle that this marriage was arranged when my father was still alive, and the other party was a powerful force in Longxi. Back then, this marriage could be regarded as a well-matched marriage, but now that my father is not here, and my elder brother has not yet become an official, it can be regarded as a family. The way has fallen, and this marriage was facilitated with the full support of her uncle's family, but after entering such a high school, how will she deal with herself in the future?No one thought about her.

That man is a good friend of my brother, who often appears in my uncle's mansion, and she has seen him from afar. He is handsome, knowledgeable, handsome, and noble. He is the man that thousands of women want to marry. In her eyes Although she appreciates him, he is very nice, but it is a pity that she is not the person she wants to spend her life with, she has long left her heart on another person——

The cultivation of the high-school children started at an early age, and she and her elder brother were treated like the legitimate sons in the mansion, so my uncle specially hired a teacher for her to teach her to read.

The teacher invited was surnamed Chen Huanqing, and his personality was as clear and bland as his name, as plain as water.He was born in a poor family, became famous at a young age, but failed many times. He is talented, but perhaps he always lacked some opportunities.That's why I came to this house to teach an ordinary woman that what she seeks is nothing more than a chance, no matter how upright a person encounters reality, she has to bend down the restraint of not bending over five buckets of rice, as long as you give ten buckets of rice.

She likes his soft voice, the fragrance of soap locust on his clothes, and his elegant demeanor. The days with him make her feel especially peaceful.The panic deep in my heart suddenly calmed down, and the book said that the world is stable and the years are quiet, maybe this is what it feels like.

He likes playing the piano the most, and he enjoys drinking while playing the piano in the bamboo courtyard, so she is especially good at playing the piano in poetry, calligraphy and painting, and she wonders if this is why he will look at her more and value herself more .

At that time, he was already in his thirties, but she was just a child in his eyes. She admired her teacher, but she clearly understood in her heart that this secret love was nothing but a flashy dream in the end.

He is from a poor family, and she is from a noble family. This is a natural barrier, not to mention that she has found out that he has a family, so they have no possibility.Even so, she still wants to see him every day. She buries this unbearable feeling in her heart, waiting for it to rot slowly, until the day she forgets, but before she completely forgets, She wished he would still be by her side.

Even though she was so careful, her throbbing was still noticed by her aunt, and then she never saw him again, and all traces disappeared, as if he had never appeared before.

She dared not ask her aunt, nor did she dare to tell anyone about it.So I could only close the door and cry quietly. When I woke up the next day, she was still a lady of a high family.The aunt did not scold her, but just told her that she had already made a marriage contract with the second son of the Li family, and that she would get married soon, and it was impossible for her and her husband.

It turned out that the outcome of everything was already doomed.

She sometimes wondered, if he also liked her, did she have the courage to choose to elope with him, as said in those romantic stories, the gifted scholar and the beautiful lady have lived a happy life ever since.But life is not a story. She will never do such a disgraceful thing, not because of her courage, but because of her responsibility. She must not let her eldest grandson's surname be humiliated because of her.And that person will not, because he still has his own ambitions that have not been realized.

Over time, the shadow of that person gradually faded, to the point where she thought she almost forgot about that person, but occasionally, when she dreamed back at midnight, she still felt inexplicable heartache, and some regrets had been deposited for a long time, in her memory It's even better, just like old wine.

The day of her marriage was a sunny and auspicious day. With the blessings of her relatives, and with fear and anticipation for the future, she sat on the wedding sedan chair, dressed in red makeup, and it became a good story for a while.

The moment she lifted the hijab, she saw the amazement and liking in his eyes. He was dressed in red, his hair was tied with golden hairpins, and his brows were full of spirit.

Surrounded by teasing guests and speaking auspicious words, the two young men in happy clothes showed youthfulness and shyness, and the blush remained on their faces.

He went out to have a banquet, while she stayed alone in the new room, took off her heavy makeup, and looked at the immature face in the makeup mirror in silence for a long time.When he returned to the new house drunk, there was no one to be seen in the hazy night, wearing a red pajamas, standing pretty by the candlelight.

Before going out, her aunt gave her a set of fire avoidance maps and told her to look at them. The newlywed husband walked towards her slowly, and the images that she tried to forget appeared clearly in her mind.

"Don't be afraid, I will treat you well in the future"

He walked into her side, took her hand, felt the nervous moistness in her palm and comforted her.

She glanced at him, and the tension in her heart slowly calmed down.

On the night of their wedding, they lay peacefully together in the rich brocade quilt, and the red candles were lit until dawn.

Perhaps it was because she was in an unfamiliar place, she got up very early the next day, and when he woke up, he was still sleeping, breathing regularly.She turned her face away and quietly looked at the man lying next to her. For the first time, she clearly realized that she was really married to this man, and she shared good and bad fortunes from then on.

The following days didn't seem to be as sad as she imagined, her father-in-law and mother-in-law were kind people, and he treated her so well that she almost thought she was going to fall in love with him, but when he was loved by other people for the first time When she shouted to leave, she realized that after all, it was only almost. After all, such a man would not live in the back house. He still has more ambitions and ideals. Women are always just a spice in their lives, and they will never cut off their desires. Pride and ambition.

After understanding this truth, they get along more calmly. He treats her well, so she is more considerate in terms of food, housing and transportation. Only in this way can she feel less guilty. She is his wife, but She never had him in her heart.

She took care of the housework for him wholeheartedly and cared about his life. Everyone thought he had married a good wife, and he thought so too, so the temperature in her eyes was getting hotter and hotter, but her heart was still extremely calm.She thinks that he likes her, even though sometimes, this kind of liking is a bit cheap, because there are too many things in a man's heart that are more important than love.

He is not greedy for women, but there are quite a few women in the mansion, most of them are gifts from officials for clinging, or some kind of private transactions, so even if it has nothing to do with love, he still needs to go to the backyard from time to time. trip.If there are too many people, things will be complicated, and if there are too many interests, people's hearts will be confused. But he doesn't know anything, and she doesn't want to tell him. developed as expected.

She is not jealous of who he favors, but she hopes that he will be safe and well. The concubine in the backyard is pregnant, and she will order her servants to take care of her carefully, because it is his blood, he is ambitious and capable, so he is destined to leave A dangerous road, and no matter what happens, she will always be by his side, so no matter what she faces in the future, she is very calm and calm, even if she doesn't love him, he is still her relative.

Day by day, those who remain in the memory gradually become strangers, and those people or things that have been unforgettable are gradually forgotten in the years of obsession.Love is not the whole of life, there are too many things that can be persisted in life.

Later, she had her own child, which was the best gift God gave her, and her only obsession was to watch her children grow up slowly, marry a wife and have children...
