Huaizhen didn't know which family it was, but they chose Hanshi to get married.

There is no taboo on this day in the almanac, but generally few people will get married on these days.Xia He opened the window and looked down, only to see the bridegroom officer riding a horse behind the trumpet and suona team. The groom officer did not prepare a car or a sedan chair, but was leading another horse in his hand.The two horses, one black and one white, with big red flowers on their heads, looked very happy.

The groom's official was also beaming, Xia He could see the corner of his grinning mouth from such a long distance.It's just that those watching the bustle on the side all frowned, gathered together, and whispered.Several children wanted to ask for sweets, but they were all stopped by their families.

Xia He was a little strange, did this family do something bad to make them so unlikable?

But he didn't care about other people's affairs anymore, the coachman had already knocked on the door, and asked Li Mu if he was feeling better today, and if he wanted to continue on his way.Seeing Li Mu's eyes still closed, Xia He was a little uncertain, ran to the door, and said in a low voice: "Mu Ge's fever is gone, but he hasn't woken up yet, otherwise, let's go tonight Let's go, tell Brother Mu to get a good night's sleep."

The coachman responded and retreated again.

When Xia He went to the window to look again, the young man on the horse had gone far away.

Xia He didn't sit back beside Li Mu until she was sure she couldn't see the wedding party.He stared at Li Mu, it was already bright outside, why brother Mu hasn't woken up yet?

Li Mu had actually woken up.

When he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Xia He's back, and then Li Mu remembered that he said something that he shouldn't have said when he was burned out yesterday.He thought hard for a while, and finally remembered what he said yesterday, Li Mu was stunned.

Then when Xia He turned around, he immediately closed his eyes again, pretending that he was still asleep.

Xia He didn't know that Li Mu was pretending to be asleep, so she ran her hands along Li Mu's forehead and cheeks, all the way to her neck.At first it was to see if Li Mu's fever had really subsided, and then it was purely because he had nothing to do.

Li Mu finally couldn't hold back when Xia He's hand slid across his throat, and his throat moved.

Xia He immediately took his hand away and called out in a low voice: "Brother Mu? Are you awake? Are you thirsty?"

Embarrassed, Li Mu continued to pretend, opened his eyes, and nodded.

Xia He brought over the water that he had prepared earlier.

I never thought that Xia He would act like nothing happened. After Li Mu lost his mind for a moment, he didn't have the face to take the initiative to mention what he said last night.Just treat it as nonsense, Li Mu thought to himself, and poured the water down in one breath.

Xia He said: "I'll ask Xiaoer to decoct the medicine later. Alas, it's really not easy to ask someone to start a fire this cold food festival. You can't be bitter, you have to drink it to be good."

Li Mudao said: "No."

Xia He shook her head: "You didn't want to drink medicine yesterday, I can tell that. ——Oh, that snack, at worst, I'll give you another piece."

Xia He also remembered what happened last night carefully, including Li Mu's every frown, every word.

Li Mu lowered his head, not to mention he didn't dare to ask, did the inner voice he uttered in a daze ever reach Xia He's heart.

Xia He ran downstairs to ask Xiaoer to decoct the medicine.

There is a small restaurant on the first floor of the inn. Whether you are a guest staying in the inn or a townsman who is occasionally lazy and unwilling to cook, you can come and sit and have some steamed buns, noodles and so on.It's just that these two days are the Cold Food Festival, there is no smoke in the entire Jia Dynasty, and the inn only sells cold steamed buns, and there are only a few people sitting here and there on the first floor.

Those few people made a group together, talking and laughing: "You just saw that the young master of the Wang family is leading a horse to marry a man! Hahaha! I'm dying of laughter, there are such absurd things in the world!"

"Hey, you don't know that, men can marry men these days, and the one who gets married can still continue the imperial examination."

"Oh, this is ridiculous!"

"This is what the virtuous prince begged for from the sage! - You know, the son of the virtuous king, just like this..."

"This... Royal matter, let's stop talking nonsense."

"What are you afraid of, the sky is high and the emperor is far away!"

"That's right, what are you afraid of! - Hey, I heard that the virtuous king is a lunatic, so the old emperor just accompanied him to go crazy?"

Xia He went downstairs until he found Xiao Er, so he listened to this.Only then did he suddenly realize, no wonder the team welcoming the bride just now was so unpopular, it turned out to be a man marrying a man.It has been two years since the law was changed, but Raonan Town has never heard of anyone who dared to do it, and Xia He only heard it occasionally.No matter who it is, when it comes to this matter, it's hard to describe.

Xia He went back upstairs, thinking about what those people said, she walked slowly, thinking while walking.Is there any man who will marry another man and go home? ——Hey, that's right, Qin Fan, who was making strange noises at Li Yun, was that the plan?

Xia He saw only two sides of Qin Fan, and had never figured out what kind of medicine those two people were selling in their gourds before. They said they didn't look like close friends, and they didn't look like enemies.Now that he had figured it out, he ran upstairs and asked Li Mu, "Brother Mu, I want to ask you something!"

"Huh?" Li Mu was looking at the beams, wondering what he was thinking, when Xia He's voice brought him back to his senses, he tilted his head and looked at Xia He.

"Does that Mr. Qin Fan, Qin Fan, want to marry your elder brother?" Xia He asked.

"... Exactly." Seeing Xia He excitedly, but inquiring about other people's affairs, Li Mu felt a little blocked in his heart.

After getting an affirmative answer, Xia He became distressed: "Then, isn't he afraid of being told by others?"

"I guess I'm not afraid." Li Mu pondered for a moment, then responded.

"Then..." Xia He paused, moved a chair to the side of the bed, sat down upright, and looked at Li Mu.

Li Mu suddenly became nervous, not knowing what Xia He would say next.

Xia He seemed to be hesitating for a while, before asking: "Then, are you afraid?"

"..." Li Mu lowered his eyes.

But Xia He immediately mentioned the thing that Li Mu didn't want Xia He to remember: "Brother Mu, you said yesterday that you only want me to be your wife.——Is that what you mean?"

Xia He is not stupid, it's just that some things have never been experienced before, so it is not easy to see clearly.After Li Mu said that sentence yesterday, he began to think about it. After thinking over and over again, he couldn't find a second meaning for Li Mu's sentence.

That sentence was too straightforward, after all, it was just saying that Li Mu liked him and wanted to marry him.

Xia He straightened her back, but she was also nervous.Li Mu was bored for a while, and said: "Although the descendants of my Li family are withered, I still have Jinbao. ——But you are the only one left in your Zhang family..."

Xia He was a little strange, he was not sure why Li Mu said these things.Does this have anything to do with the question Xia He asked?

Seeing Xia He's appearance, he must have an answer. Li Mu stretched out his hand from under the quilt, touched Xia He's hand, smiled, shook his head, and said, "I'm not afraid, but I'm just ...I just hope that you can live your life in peace, I don't expect you to respond to me, and I don't want to lead you to a crooked road, maybe, there is Abi Hell ahead..."

It was probably because Li Mu's voice was trembling just after he retreated from the cold.He closed his eyes, unable to see Xia He's ignorant expression.

At this moment, he began to blame himself, that night, he shouldn't talk nonsense.Even though it was out of his control.

But Li Mu could close his eyes, but he couldn't cover his ears.He was waiting for Xia He to speak, as if waiting for a trial.

After a while, Xia He said in a low voice, "Maybe... the front is not hell either."

He opened his eyes, not sure what Xia He meant.

Xia He wasn't looking at him, but looked around in panic.After being stared at by Li Mu, he finally sighed and said: "Brother Mu, you said that I am often trapped by that yin dream monster, and when I wake up in the morning, I will dirty my underwear. I want to marry a woman, but I……"

He was a little embarrassed to admit it, but he still said, "But it was you that I dreamed about."

Li Mu trembled, and looked at Xia He in disbelief.

A blush appeared on Xia He's cheeks, and she let out a dry cough.

Suddenly, his hand was grabbed by Li Mu.

Xia He didn't struggle, but used her fingertips to stroke Li Mu's palm indiscriminately, making Li Mu's palms itch to the bottom of his heart.

It was Li Mu who suddenly withdrew his hand, denying himself: "No, how can I do it, and make my benefactor's family look like nothing..."

"But I heard from my father that the master said back then that our family should have no future generations. My father's life and mine were all stolen by the master from the heavens." Xia He said yes.

"Since I have survived, it is natural to continue the bloodline..." Li Mu was a person who studied since childhood, and his mind is full of ethics and clan etiquette.He didn't dare to tell Xia He what he wanted. The biggest obstacle was because Li Mu knew that Xia He was now the only male in the Zhang family.

Xia He paused for a moment, feeling quite disappointed: "Okay... hey, then Brother Mu, you should have a good rest. Let's drink the medicine before we go?"

Li Muping resented himself even more in vain, but didn't say anything, but nodded lightly.

It didn't take long for the medicine to be brought up. After taking the medicine, Xia He saw that Li Mu's clothes were drenched with sweat from last night. After thinking about it, she didn't rush to leave, so she begged Xiaoer to boil some hot water. Wiped Li Mu's body and changed his clothes.

This tossing was delayed until noon, and the procession of welcoming the bride went back, chattering and beating again.When Xia He came downstairs, he just caught up with the young man riding a horse on the street, but the other horse was no longer held by him, but was straddled by another young man.

Xia Heduo glanced at it, just in time, a half-old child was holding an egg in his hand, and was about to throw it at the two of them.

The young man who was welcoming the bride saw it, and hurriedly threw himself on the person beside him, blocking the egg.It's just that he blocked it, and he almost fell off his horse.

Fortunately, another young man grabbed his horse's rein quickly, and the two horses stuck together and stopped just right.The two young men hugged each other, smiled at each other, and sat up straight again.

The din of gongs and drums resounded through Huai Town again after only one pause.Looking at it, Xia He suddenly felt envious.
