Two or Three Questions on a Moonlit Night

Get married tomorrow?

As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the room.

After a moment, the bandit brother came forward in panic: "Boss, this... how can this be done? What if they really get married?"

The boss raised his hand to stop the younger brother from continuing, his expression serious, not joking.

Xia Shang and Yue Haitang were still stunned on the spot, and Mr. Zhuo also stood up and said: "Marriage is a big deal. You should choose an auspicious day and follow etiquette and customs. How can you be so careless?"

"Old man, I have the final say here. If you don't get married, you are a fake couple. Since you are not a couple, this delicate young lady will be detained in the village by us."

Xia Shang was also anxious: "You said you would release her after getting the ransom, why don't you keep your word?"

"If you are not a couple, then you have deceived me! You broke your promise first, so I will naturally I regret it. If you are really in love, wouldn't it be wonderful to get married in my village? I, Zhang Tieniu, have done too many evil things in my life and have never done any good things. This time I will be your matchmaker, which can be regarded as accumulating some merits. As the saying goes, it is better to demolish ten temples than to regret a marriage. How can I let go of such a great good deed? Whether to get married or not, I will give you some time to consider it. I will come again at dawn. Don't let me down then! "

After saying that, he waved to the younger brother behind him, "Let's go."

The thatched house was locked again, leaving the three people in shock.

Mr. Zhuo stood for a while and went to a corner of the room silently. It had nothing to do with him at this time. It depends on how the parties plan.

But Mr. Zhuo muttered in his heart: "If the Fairy Shuiyue, one of the best masters in the world and the one everyone talks about with fear, marries an ordinary person who can't fight... If this news spreads to the world, won't it cause a storm?"

On the other side, Xia Shang first lit the oil lamp, then went to Yue Haitang and whispered: "How is your injury? Are you feeling unwell?"

The firelight illuminated Yue Haitang's face. This was a beautiful young face, no more than eighteen years old, with jade-like cheeks and delicate features, as elegant as the quiet daffodils. But there was a calmness and calmness in her eyes that was very inconsistent with her age. This was something Xia Shang had never understood. He always felt that Haitang's eyes would give people a sense of vicissitudes.

At this moment, Yue Haitang was looking at Xia Shang, watching his every move, silent, listening to him quietly, without expression, not knowing what he was thinking, but giving people an indescribable weirdness.

"It's okay."

As the two words came out lightly, Yue Haitang's eyes did not even blink.

Xia Shang frowned and coughed awkwardly: "Well... don't be nervous, I'll think of a way."

Yue Haitang didn't answer, her eyes wandered as Xia Shang paced back and forth.

Xia Shang looked at the window and found that it was not tightly sealed: "We can slip away from the window overnight."

Yue Haitang still didn't respond.

"Then you teach me martial arts? I'll take you out tomorrow?"

"Or..."

"Don't say it." Yue Haitang finally said lightly, "I know what you mean, cooperating with them is the best choice. I know this."

"So what?"

"So I decided to cooperate with you in this play, after all, you saved me."

Xia Shang was relieved. He could see that this woman was extraordinary. The more extraordinary the woman, the more difficult it is to accept such an arrangement.

Xia Shang was worried that she would not be able to accept such a thing and intensify the conflict between the two sides, so that all three people would be in danger.

At least for now, this group of bandits is not as evil as imagined, so avoid conflicts as much as possible.

With the consent of the parties involved, Xia Shang also felt relieved.

"In this case, let's go to sleep."

The halo before dawn tried to penetrate the window outside the house. The three people in the house were still exhausted, but no one could sleep.

Perhaps it was the fake marriage that made the room awkward, and they stayed silent for a long time.

Mr. Zhuo stood at the window and looked at the unobstructed scenery. The faint sound of the stream was particularly clear.

Xia Shang and Yue Haitang sat by the small bed, one person away, and nodded in silence for a long time.

"Do you have a wife or concubine?"

I don't know why Yue Haitang asked this question, Xia Shang didn't think much and answered truthfully: "I only have a wife at home, no concubines."

"Wife? How does she look?"

"She is so beautiful that she can make fish sink and geese fall, and the moon hide and shame flowers. One look at her can make a city fall, and another look can make a country fall. She is the most beautiful person in the world."

Xia Shang's face was as red as peach blossoms, and his joy was beyond words.

Yue Haitang frowned slightly: "Is it really that good?"

"Really, if you have a wife like this, what else can a husband ask for?"

"Then you are really the luckiest person in the world."

"That makes sense, I agree."

"Seeing you like this, I'm afraid you love your wife too much, right?"

"Yes."

"Won't you be wronged by tomorrow's matter?"

At this point, Xia Shang suddenly saw that the woman he was talking to was a little unhappy. He looked at her and saw a frosty ice sculpture standing not far away, with an expression that said people and animals should stay away, so Xia Shang didn't know what to say.

In a blink of an eye, a ray of morning light broke free from the restraints of the window paper, penetrated into the hut through the tiny gap of the window, and became brighter and brighter.

Then, a few rooster crows broke the silence, waking up everyone in the small valley.

The two bandits who received the letter last night went out today to exchange silver for Zhu's Bookstore in Yangzhou. The leader of Kuangfeng Village, Zhang Tieniu, also came to the hut early in the morning with his younger brother, opened the door, glanced at the three people in the hut, and asked in a low voice: "What's up? Have you thought it through?"

Xia Shang didn't say anything, looking at Yue Haitang.

Yue Haitang frowned and stepped forward and said, "If you have made up your mind, you can get married in the village."

"Hahaha! Good! Great!" Zhang Tieniu laughed wildly and patted his brother's shoulder, "Look, aren't we real husband and wife now? It's rare for me, Zhang Tieniu, to do a good deed. There hasn't been any joy in Kuangfeng Village for a long time. This time is just right, let your wedding bring joy to our house."

"Wait!" Yue Haitang suddenly interrupted, "It's okay to get married, but the wedding rituals and customs cannot be omitted, and the expenses for purchasing and decorating cannot be omitted. Everything must be done according to the standards and cannot be reduced."

"Hey! You are really troublesome, young lady. Forget it, just according to your requirements, I will send people to purchase everything you need, and I will never let the bride down, and I will definitely let the groom be glorious. But time is short now, where can I find these things?"

"Don't worry, we can wait." Yue Haitang said lightly.

"That's the best. Since we are going to prepare for the wedding, I'll have to ask you to stay in the village for a few more days."

After a discussion, they reached a consensus.

Xia Shang listened silently throughout the process, somewhat puzzled, frowning, looking at Yue Haitang, wondering what she was planning.

No matter what, she would never do as she said...
