Chapter 66 Three Matchmakers and Six Engagements
It had just rained.
The grass on the roadside was very wet
and green.
There were water drops on the grass leaves, sparkling in the sun.
Just like Jiang Xiaoyu's eyes, sparkling.
Because Meng Shaoxia was leaving, she actually brought her a box of snacks.
Meng Shaoxia took off the sword on her body, held it in both hands, and handed it to Jiang Feng.
"This sword is called Chaoyang, and it was given to me by my grandfather. I have been on the battlefield and seen blood, but they are all people who can be killed. Brother Jiang and I hit it off at first sight, and I am willing to give this precious sword to you."
Meng Shaoxia held the sword.
Jiang Feng was a little moved.
He was used to the market, and he looked honest on the outside, but he was not honest in fact.
His words and deeds were more because of the subconscious survival rules.
But the square-faced young hero from the capital, Bao Ma, in front of him was a rare and sincere person he had ever met.
"No, no, no, I'm not worthy of him. It's a waste of such a good sword." Jiang Feng refused hastily.
In fact, he didn't want Brother Meng's sword at all.
At most, he thought of the sword on the guard, and he already felt it was majestic.
The pattern on the scabbard of the sword in front of him was not complicated, but very simple, and it also looked like a flower.
The hilt was very shiny, and it could be seen that this was really a commonly used sword, at least it was held every day, not for decoration.
The most special thing about the whole sword might be that there was a piece of jade at the top of the handle, which seemed to have turned from white to red, as if it had been soaked with blood.
Blood red and gorgeous.
His name is Chaoyang.
Meng Shaoxia insisted on putting the sword into Jiang Feng's arms.
"You deserve it, a sword worthy of a hero. When I am far away in the capital in the future, I will definitely hear the name of Jiang Feng of Qingyuan Mountain."
He Chen was holding the baby, and seeing Brother Meng's action, his blood boiled. He
blurted out: "Why don't we become sworn brothers?"
Brother Meng ignored him.
Brother Jiang was looking at the sword.
The baby in his arms stared at him with wide eyes and drooled again.
After Meng Shaoxia handed over the sword, he took off the jade pendant on his body and
handed it to Jiang Yu.
"This jade pendant has been with me for many years, and it has helped me turn danger into safety many times. I give it to you, little Yu'er, be careful and don't lose yourself again."
Jiang Yu was thinking about delicious food when a jade pendant was stuffed into her. She was so scared that she didn't dare to let go, fearing that the jade would fall to the ground and break, and she would be accused of fraud.
She had never touched such a valuable thing.
"I, I, I don't want it." Jiang Yu held the jade pendant tightly and pushed it in front of Meng Shaoxia.
"Don't be nervous, it's just a meeting gift. You see, we all have things hanging on our bodies, just to give to people when we meet." Meng Shaoxia said with a smile.
An older soldier in the carriage behind him covered his eyes.
When the young master went out, except for his clothes, everything else was given away.
The jade pendant was passed down from the old lady's ancestors. It was passed down to the young master's generation. There are very few warm jade hearts in the world, called jade spirits. Even if you search the world, you may not be able to find another one like it.
Jiang Yu looked at He Chen curiously.
He Chen looked at Brother Meng and could only nod: "Yes, yes, yes, a gift for meeting."
He held the baby in his hands and called his men: "Come here, help me take off the jade pendant."
The men took off the jade pendant from his body.
Although it was not inherited from the ancestors, it was also an extremely good jade pendant. But it was not like what Brother Meng said, that they hung jade pendants to give to others, and he was not a jade pendant.
In the future, he felt a little psychologically traumatized when he wore a jade pendant again.
He put the jade pendant on the baby's swaddling clothes and hung it.
"A meeting gift for Xiao Mianmian. When you grow up and love your country and the city, I will say that I once held you in my arms, hahaha."
Jiang Mianmian glanced at the jade pendant in front of her, and was really curious.
She had already reached out to grab it.
It was slippery and icy, and very fun. It was a circle with decorations on it, and it was really beautiful.
She liked it.
Her chubby little hand could just fit through it. It should be a jade ring, a carved bracelet, but it was just right for a baby.
Jiang Mianmian grinned and showed a big smile to the young hero in front of her.
He Chen saw that the little baby was drooling again. She really loved to laugh. She had no teeth and drooled when she laughed.
It diluted the sadness of parting.
He didn't expect Jiang Feng to refuse.
Even if she doesn't go to Qingzhou with him, she can go to the capital with Brother Meng. Brother Meng is really a very good person, chivalrous and righteous, and the elders in his family are also very good.
But Jiang Feng said that he dared not leave home, his sister was young, his mother was introverted, and his father was weak. The boy said that he had to take care of
his family. He Chen and Meng Shaoxia are both children of large families. They really understand the tragedy of having no family.
The biggest punishment for the children of a family who do evil is to be expelled from the family. All those people cried bitterly, regretted and begged for mercy.
Because without a family, it is like duckweed, like bubbles.
Anyone can bully you, adults can beat you, and wild dogs can bite you.
Jiang Feng's family is like this.
But Jiang Feng refused, and He Chen admired him even more.
He felt that he was worthy of the saying: "Knock on the skinny bones, and they still make a bronze sound."
Although the rejection was unexpected, he felt that it was reasonable.
He wrote a letter to his uncle in the capital last night, writing about Brother Jiang's poem and his own experiences. Whenever he was confused, he was willing to talk to his uncle.
Although his uncle was busy, he was very attentive to him and answered all his questions.
He Chen's family was so chaotic, but he could still grow up so upright, which was inseparable from his uncle's careful teaching.
Maybe he also had a hunch that Jiang Feng would refuse.
Because he understood Brother Jiang's poem.
He Chen asked his men to prepare the four treasures of the study, as well as a lot of paper and the books he carried with him, all of which were left for Brother Jiang.
Meng Shaoxia gave away his precious sword, his precious jade, and even his precious horse.
Because the precious horse would not leave...
he did not expect Jiang Feng to refuse.
But he also prepared a lot of things for Jiang Feng's family.
A lot of snacks.
Fine food.
Flowered cloth, hair ropes.
But not much money was left.
They did not dare to give too many valuable gifts because they were worried that too much money would bring disaster.
It was a farewell, but there was always a farewell.
Meng Shaoxia looked back several times.
He saw his horse and the girl standing beside the horse, holding a snack box in one hand and waving goodbye to him with the other. He
looked at the young man, holding the baby and holding the precious sword.
The baby was actually waving her arms in Brother Jiang's arms, as if saying goodbye to them.
He walked forward a few steps, then turned back. He
walked forward a few steps, then turned back again.
The girl's hands were probably tired of waving, so she sat on a stone by the roadside.
Seeing him turn around, she stretched out her hands and waved again.
He Chen couldn't help but look back.
He watched those figures getting smaller and smaller.
They were walking farther and farther away.
...
In the past, carriages were very slow.
In the past, the roads were very long.
In the past, people would always write poems when they said goodbye.
In the past, people valued feelings, because meeting is not easy, and parting is even harder.
Li Bai said, "The water of Taohuatan is a thousand feet deep, but it is not as deep as Wang Lun's love for me."
Wang Bo said, "A bosom friend is as close as a neighbor."
Wang Wei said, "I urge you to drink another cup of wine, there will be no old friends after you leave Yangguan."
Bai Juyi said, "The grass on the plain withers and grows green every year."
Gao Shi said, "Don't worry about having no bosom friends on the road ahead, everyone in the world knows you."
...
He Chen and Meng Shaoxia sat on the swaying horseback.
Each of them was in deep thought.
They seemed to be reading their own farewell.
After walking for a while, they came to a dense forest. This forest was particularly dense, and it was difficult to see who was in the forest.
It was a good place to rob.
Meng Shaoxia and He Chen suddenly smiled at each other.
Then they laughed out loud.
Because here, they met a few playboys who were beating up kidnappers, and they met a kidnapped girl who kicked the kidnapper, not because the kidnapper wanted to sell her, but because the kidnapper didn't leave money for her parents.
Dense forests, muddy land, wild cicadas, it's the most ordinary and common scenery.
Because of the different people, it has become a different scenery.
He Chen smiled and said, "This trip is very good!"
Meng Shaoxia also nodded: "Very good."
"Brother Meng, do you like Jiang Xiaomei? Your jade pendant is Yu Ling. I've heard my grandmother talk about it." He Chen asked curiously.
Meng Shaoxia said, "I like her straightforwardness, her joy in eating, and her sincerity to her family. I like her very much, but I don't want to be abrupt. I will go back and tell my parents, and then I will propose marriage with three matchmakers and six betrothals."
