Tong Jia anecdote

<nineteen>

"The boss is back, the boss is back!" He vaguely heard someone shouting from the street outside, Ji Lan waved his hand, because he couldn't speak, Fu Chaqin knowingly asked his sister to send someone out to have a look.

It turned out that when Tong Jiu and Hua Jingfu were going to the Jeddah desert, they encountered the three bandits and the stolen horses.

The other party is obviously a master horse driver, leading the leading horse to run very fast in front, but it is somewhat difficult for Tong Jiu and Hua Jingfu to drive the horse behind.

When the chase got closer and closer, it ran farther and farther away from Jeddah.The two walked in a hurry that day, and neither of them brought bows, ropes, or horse poles.In the end, it was Hua Jingfu who pulled out the sword, saw the right moment and made a powerful throw, knocking the bandit leader off his horse.

In this way, the two drove the horses back.Just going back and forth like this, and there was a storm on the road.After walking in the desert for three days, I arrived in Jeddah in the middle of the night yesterday.

Hearing that Hongxiao sent a few groups of people over, knowing that Baotou Mansion might be in a hurry, Tong Jiu drank a few sips of water, spit out the sand in his mouth, took a rest and rushed back overnight.

After riding the fast horse for these days, Tong Jiu's leg went limp when he got off the horse, as if he didn't belong to him anymore, and he couldn't stand steadily.Fortunately, the guys greeted her in time, and welcomed her and Hua Jingfu in with their arms.

After running for several days, it was only when I took a shower that I found that the inner thighs were bleeding from the saddle, and the lower legs were swollen.Pretending to be calm and enduring the pain, Hong Xiao changed her clothes.Supported by several people, they reluctantly got on the horse to welcome the bride again.

Although I know that this is a wedding just for others to see, but when I heard Da Zhengchang's buddy came to say that his master is back, he is already on the horse, and when he came to the house to welcome the bride, Ji Lan was holding hands in his sleeves. Only then was it loosened.

Getting married is the most important moment in a woman's life, which woman doesn't like it?The bridal sedan chair that was not completed more than ten years ago, regardless of whether it is true or not, is finally sitting on it today.

Just like that, Ji Lan sat in the flickering bridal sedan chair, listening to the suona playing outside, and the sound of firecrackers, blowing and beating around Baotou City, it was very lively.

The sedan chair was carried all the way to the outside of the bridal chamber. In front of the bridal chamber, a brazier was set up in advance, and the bearers carried the sedan chair over the brazier to drive away evil spirits and avoid disasters.

When the sedan chair arrived at the door of the bridal chamber, Tong Jiu took the bow and arrow hanging on the sedan chair, and Ji Lan heard three "bang bang bang" sounds outside the sedan chair, and the sedan chair also shook three times.

After shooting the arrow, Fuchaqin helped her get off the sedan chair. Fuchami put a red silk vase with whole grains in it into her hand, and with the support of the two of them, stepped on the red carpet towards the inside Walk.

Tong Jiu watched Ji Lan, who was wearing flowerpot-soled shoes, step steadily over the saddle on the threshold, and heaved a sigh of relief.He took the red silk from Fu Chaqin and led her to the incense table in the hall.

After worshiping heaven and earth, Ji Lan sat firmly on the bed, and boys and girls sprinkled peanuts and jujubes on the bed.Tong Jiu took the scale that Hong Xiao handed over and lifted the hijab, symbolically stroking Ji Lan's hair, implying to grow old together.Then he threw the hijab onto the roof with all his strength, and then sat side by side with Ji Lan on the new bed.

"Master, I have overstepped." Fuchaqin saluted first, and then pressed Tong Jiu's right skirt onto Jilan's left skirt. was the longest, so she did it.

The two drank a cup of wine and ate half-baked dumplings. The toast song sung by the Mongolians in the camel caravan sounded outside the door. The wedding was just over, and Tong Jiu got up and went out to toast.

When Hongxiao followed her out, Ji Lan gave Fuchami a wink, and Fuchami took the jug filled with white water in advance, and chased after the two.

"Uncle!" Fuchami yelled awkwardly, and couldn't help crying with joy, with tears on his face, he said, "From now on, you must treat our lady well!" After speaking, he handed the jug to Hongxiao.

Tong Jiu nodded, took out the red envelope from his sleeve to Fuchami, and said politely, "Thank you."

After they left, Fuchami opened the red envelope, and inside was Zhang Qianliang's bank note. This was the first time she felt Tong Jiu's merits.

In the end, Tong Jiu drank too much after all, and didn't come back until late at night.

Ji Lan changed out of the heavy dress, and remembered the red Mongolian robe that Tong Jiu liked so much, so she asked Fu Chaqin to take it out again and put it on for her.

"The Laoha River is long and long, and the horses on the bank are dragging their reins. The beautiful girl, Nuoengiya, is married to a distant place—" In the middle of the night, a melodious and desolate Mongolian folk song came from the window of the bridal chamber.

"Who is singing here?" Attracted by the singing, Ji Lan walked out of the bridal chamber and came to the front hall, asking curiously.

"It's our lady." Seeing her approaching, Hong Xiao stood beside her, blocking the turbid man's breath in the hall, sobbed in a very low voice, and then wiped away her tears.

Hong Xiao also knew that today's wedding was Han Luqi's wedding, but seeing Tong Jiu sitting there in a dress with full beard and tail, she was touched by the scene.

Think about the fear and worry a few days ago, think about when she and Tong Jiu fled on the grassland, running day and night on the grassland, and think about the hardships and food on the road when they came from Jiangnan to Baotou Mansion in the north half a year ago. bitter.

Tong Jiu got married today, and she is considered a complete adult. As long as she lives well, she will be worthy of the ancestors of the Tong Jia family in the sky.

"Nuoengiya, who is it?" Ji Lan knew some Mongolian, and looked at the Mongolians sitting on the ground beside the bonfire in the courtyard, humming along and being intoxicated by it, and holding a wine bowl in one hand, sitting there with his head tilted and chanting softly. Sung by Tong Jiu.

The flickering bonfire reflected on her face. Although her clothes and hair were disheveled at the moment, her natural and free and easy temperament was particularly dazzling and outstanding among the crowd.

"Her mother's boudoir name." Hong Xiao wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "In Horqin, many girls are called Nuoengiya, and they would sing this song when they got married."

"At the side of my parents, I made new clothes with silk and satin. I came to a remote place and sewed fur to make clothes. The Haiqing River was turbulent. I missed the long friendship between my parents. A horse was a bride price, and my daughter married far away. " Tong Jiu got up at the end of singing, dipped the ring finger of his right hand in the wine and flicked it three times, and drank the wine happily in front of everyone.

Then he spread his hands, and said helplessly to everyone, "My Nuoengiya is here, everyone excuse me." After speaking, he walked towards Jilan, smiling without saying a word.

Everyone cast their eyes on the two people at the door, with envious expressions on their faces.

"You're drunk again." Tonight's starry sky has swept away the haze of the previous few days. At this time, the sky is full of stars, deep and quiet. "Is it so wronged to marry into our house? You made the maid cry."

The two of them didn't go back to the new house directly, Ji Lan walked casually, intending to let her get rid of the smell of alcohol before going back.But the night after the autumn rain was very cold, she folded her arms and rubbed them.

Suddenly feeling warm on her back, Tong Jiukuan put on her jacket and muttered nonchalantly, "I drank wine, it's very hot."

"You're a Mongolian!" Ji Lan couldn't imagine how a lady from a family with clan blood who grew up in Beijing could be as bold and unrestrained as she was just now.Anytime, anywhere, you can mingle with the Mongolians at the bottom.

She seems to understand now that Tong Jiu's obsession to attract her when she borrowed money before was not at all due to her own firm belief, but Tong Jiu's unique Mongolian thinking.

Her world is very simple, she can do whatever she wants, and doesn't care about others.Facts have proved that such a heroic person with no other distractions can achieve himself better.

"I have Mongolian blood on my body." Tong Jiu stopped walking and said to Ji Lan, "You have to get used to me, not only wearing such beautiful clothes, but also here." He pointed to his own head.

Hearing a "pa", Ji Lan slapped her on the forehead, and asked intentionally, "Here? What's so strange here? All men in the Qing Dynasty are like this. If you want to live a good life, you must What kind of clothes do you look like."

Tong Jiu frowned, rubbed her forehead, and followed her to the new house.

"Maybe, you don't understand now, maybe you will understand when you are my age." Ji Lan walked a few steps talking to himself, looked back at Tong Jiu's head, and said helplessly, "I think, you may never understand." not understand."

After returning, both sides had prepared hot water and served them to take a bath separately.Because Ji Lan took a long time to wash, Tong Jiu was tired and fell asleep first.

When Ji Lan returned to the room, she saw Hong Xiao was kneeling by the bed, applying medicine powder to Tong Jiu's leg injury, so she asked Fucha sisters behind her to go to sleep.He walked over gently, looking at the extremely careful look in Hongxiao's hands, for fear of waking her up in pain.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, he took off his soft shoes and asked, "How many horses has she recovered?"

"Fifty or so." Hong Xiao tucked the broken hair around her ears, and said to Ji Lan, "The autumn night is cold, I brought two extra quilts for you to put at the end of the bed. She always came forward after drinking. Pushing on the quilt in the middle of the night, grabbing the quilt in the second half of the night. I rode a horse before, so I couldn’t sleep well.”

"Well, now you speak like your own family." Ji Lan nodded in satisfaction, feeling a little listened to.

"Actually, you're not good at all." Hong Xiao teased, "Since we met you, my brother has always had good luck."

Ji Lan was surprised by her frankness, before she thought she was a bit of a coward, but now it seems that there are really naive maids as well as foolish masters.He patted the edge of the bed, and said, "Don't choose all the nice things to say. If she dares to grab my quilt, I'll just kick her out of bed."

After hearing this, Hong Xiao pursed her lips and laughed, straightened her clothes and covered the sleeping Tong Jiu with a quilt.

"What are you laughing at?" Ji Lan yawned, seeing her get out of the bed curtain and get on the bed, and asked curiously as she pulled the quilt.

"Laughing at you, the heart of the mouth of the knife." Hong Xiao leaned forward to cover the quilt under Ji Lan's feet, and said, "She has been running for several days and nights without closing her eyes. If she wants to kick, she will kick again tomorrow."

Ji Lan turned around, looked at Hong Xiao outside, and joked with great interest, "Look at you crying so sadly just now, is it true that your brother has married the main house, and you, the little girl who is in charge of the house, is sad?" If you don't go out again, outsiders will think that on the wedding night, two daughters serve one husband together."

"Whatever you say, anyone with a discerning eye knows that my brother and I don't have that kind of relationship." Hong Xiao put down the bed curtain and said, "But you and our brother, from now on, we can't say for sure."

"Little hooves, I will let you show off your words first, and then I will punish you after you see how tall you are." Ji Lan, who had been worrying for several days and hadn't closed his eyes yesterday and all night, was overwhelmed by sleepiness and murmured in a daze After the sentence, he closed his eyes.
