The 86th dragon scale (2)

Although Chen Qiuwu has studied abroad for three years, he has not learned those bad habits. He has not only the elegance and tenderness of the traditional aristocratic childe, but also the gentleness and consideration of Western men. He has done his best to treat his mother who gave birth to him and raised him. However, Mrs. Chen is a person who refuses to change when she has made up her mind. No matter how reasonable Chen Qiuwu is with her, She insisted that Chen Qiuwu marry her chosen daughter-in-law. In the same sentence, when you become a pro, you can go wherever you want and do whatever you want. My mother won't stop you.

But there is no emotional foundation. I heard that the other party is only 15 years old. What animal must Chen Qiuwu be to be able to round the house?

After talking too much, Mrs. Chen cried and wanted to kill herself. She said she had no face to face the master under the nine springs. Chen Qiuwu was annoyed by her mother and asked her, "Mom, you said you wanted to marry me. Can you be sure that other girls are willing to marry?"

Mrs. Chen immediately said, "that's nature! My son is a dragon and Phoenix among people. How can a girl not marry? "

Seeing that her son's face was tired, she was also distressed. She racked her brains and talked about Linglong's good: "that girl, you must like that girl when you see it! She is very beautiful. I have never seen such a beautiful girl in my life! "

Chen Qiuwu laughs. He is not good at beauty. Even in foreign countries, his handsome appearance has attracted the pursuit and goodwill of many women. Recalling domestic women and his mother who has stayed at home all her life, Chen Qiuwu feels sorry for them. He doesn't like the idea of killing traditional women. In his opinion, people can grow up, Just lack of an opportunity.

At this time, Chen Qiuwu is young, full of ideals and aspirations, and his ideas are relatively naive. He has a pure heart, thinks of others and would rather wrong himself.

His mother sent him several telegrams asking him what kind of girl he likes, but Chen Qiuwu dared not tell her. In fact, he appreciates slender, plump, healthy and cheerful women. It's not that traditional women are bad, but he thinks those women who have themselves can attract him more.

"Yes!" Mrs. Chen remembered another advantage. She looked at her son triumphantly, "I picked this daughter-in-law for you. She didn't bind her feet!"

Chen Qiuwu was really surprised: "is what my mother said true? Did she really not bind her feet? "

He didn't believe it. His mother was very persistent in foot binding. He wrote back many times to comfort his mother and explain the harm of foot binding. Unfortunately, Mrs. Chen refused to listen. She said that all women in the world had foot binding. If they didn't, wouldn't they become a monster? How ugly a pair of big feet are!

Mrs. Chen was not satisfied with Linglong's lack of foot binding. At this moment, when she saw her son's surprised face, she became proud and felt that the daughter-in-law had chosen the right daughter-in-law: "that's natural. Can't my mother lie to you? If you don't believe it, go to your wife's house and have a look! "

Chen Qiuwu asked, "why didn't she bind her feet? Was it her own unwillingness or the family's unwillingness?"

Mrs. Chen said, "your mother-in-law told me that the girl in their family was pampered since childhood and was born with Yuxue lovely when she was young. The husband and wife are not willing to let her hurt. When they are a little older, it will be too late to tangle again. Your mother-in-law is regretting that she can't find her mother-in-law's house because she doesn't tie her feet."

Chen Qiuwu smiled. He didn't have a favorite woman in his heart, and his mother's attitude was here. Unless he forced his mother to die, he was sure to marry, so how to get along with each other was a very important thing. I heard that the girl's parents loved her and didn't give up binding her feet. Chen Qiuwu felt that the girl raised under the love of her parents must also have their own ideas. Anyway, he had to meet his fiancee first and ask her what she thought of the marriage.

If she is willing to marry, he will marry. If she is not willing to marry, he can help her without damaging her reputation. Even if she wants, he can introduce her to Shanghai to study. It is always right to read more books at her daughter's house. Only by reading more books can we know how beautiful, broad and desirable the world is.

Therefore, Chen Qiuwu did not refuse.

When Mrs. Chen heard that his fiancee didn't bind her feet, she was happy to see it. She was also glad that she didn't choose the Gaojia girl at the beginning. Her son learned something outside and couldn't see the little foot girl. It's really a pity. Aren't your little feet nice? Those big feet are ugly!

Chen Qiuwu took the gift prepared by his mother and paid a visit in person.

Mrs. Yan was scolding a pair of children in the house. When she heard that her son-in-law was coming, she quickly invited someone in.

Although the Yan family is not as big as the Chen family, they don't have to worry about food and clothing, and servants serve them. Chen Qiuwu noticed that the female servants of the Yan family also wrapped their little feet and trembled when they walked. The older mother had to stop and rest after walking for a while. No wonder the women were delicate. It was the cannibal feudal society and old cumbersome rules that stifled their nature.

When he was in school, the school debated the topic "why men are far more successful than women, and whether it is because men are smarter". Chen Qiuwu chose the opposite side. He did not think that women are naturally weaker than men, but the restrictions of the times have imprisoned them early. There are countless heroines among women from ancient times to now, If women are as free as men, they must be able to make achievements no less than men.

His wish is to wake up all women, hope that the country will rise, everyone will be happy and have the right to choose their own life.

In foreign words, we should pursue democracy, freedom and self will.

Linglong hides behind the curtain. With Mrs. Yan's character, she will certainly not let her meet her fiance. She says it's unreasonable. How can there be an fiancee who met before marriage? In Mrs. Yan's words, when she married master Yan, she didn't know what her husband looked like until her wedding night!

Linglong:

She's too lazy to say.

However, even across the curtain, you can see that Chen Qiuwu was born very handsome and had outstanding temperament. When he returned to China, he did not wear shirts and trousers when he was in Rome. Instead, he wore a long blue shirt, which makes him more slender and tall, like green bamboo and pines, with clank integrity. When talking to Mrs. Yan, she doesn't dislike Mrs. Yan's small family. She doesn't have to be picky about her cultivation and etiquette. Linglong thinks about Mrs. Yan's words and feels that some of them are really right.

A generation of literary giants like Chen Qiuwu can be born in this small place. It's really a smoke from the ancestral grave for several generations. If you don't marry Chen Qiuwu, you must not find someone more gentle and tolerant than him.

An excellent man like Chen Qiuwu, who has read poetry and books, is brilliant, has drunk foreign ink, has a good family, and still has compassion for women, but those who are not as good as him lie open their mouths all day waiting for women to serve - yes, Linglong says it's her father and her brother.

People have to die than people, and goods have to be thrown away.

Chen Qiuwu didn't see his fiancee. He felt a little sorry. He tried to ask Mrs. Yan what the Yan girls thought about the engagement. As soon as Mrs. Yan heard it, it seemed that the young master of the Chen family still meant to cancel the engagement? Hurry immediately, that won't work! He immediately described Linglong as not marrying a gentleman. He also said that if Chen Qiuwu refused to want Linglong, Linglong would be out of line. He had to commit suicide to keep his family reputation! Almost knelt down and begged Chen Qiuwu not to terminate the engagement, which frightened Chen Qiuwu to help her and repeatedly said that he had no idea of terminating the engagement.

Linglong's mouth twitched. She felt that if she let her mother toss around again, she would be scared to death by a good young talent and a future literary giant.

She directly opened the curtain and went out: "Mom!"

The servant girls' mothers didn't have time to hold their own young ladies, and their faces were pale!

As soon as Mrs. Yan heard her daughter's voice, she quickly turned her head: "Long'er, why did you come out?!"

Linglong said, "I won't come out again. I'm afraid my mother will scare my fiance away."

The moment Linglong opened the curtain and came out, Chen Qiuwu's eyes lit up!

She is different from the quiet, graceful and quiet boudoir woman he imagined. What makes Chen Qiuwu feel the most palpitation and can't be forgotten at the first sight is not her beautiful face, but her shining beautiful eyes!

Full of Aura! Vitality! Playful!

It's like when he was enjoying oil paintings in foreign galleries, he saw full of free and innocent girls in the oil paintings. However, the real girl was more pleasant than the girl in the painting. Just looking at her, he couldn't help laughing!

Mrs. Yan was almost fainted by her daughter's bold words: "go back, go back! No nonsense! This, this son-in-law, don't dislike it. The girl told me to be spoiled with her father. Don't...... "

Mrs. Yan had half a sentence stuck in her throat, because no matter how she looked, her son-in-law's eyes didn't seem to be disgusted or unhappy. How to say, Mrs. Yan felt that although this was her own home, she seemed superfluous. She felt that she shouldn't appear here and should hide at the bottom of the table so that the two young people could continue to look at each other.

Linglong carried her hands behind her back. She didn't wear old-fashioned clothes and skirts at home. She was forced to wear them that day by her mother. She said that Mrs. Chen liked a girl with rules. Her protest was invalid. At home, she wore a dress she had improved. Although she still covered it tightly and didn't reveal anything, it fitted the body curve and showed all the tenderness and beauty of the girl.

Chen Qiuwu is not a lecherous person. He doesn't like old-fashioned clothes and skirts. He thinks that those clothes are like chastity archways, hiding women's self. Some people even wear bikini abroad to show themselves generously. Unfortunately, his mother doesn't like the clothes he brought back from abroad and won't wear them. He always says that they are out of tune and have to be laughed at.

They looked at each other for a long time until Linglong smiled: "did you bring me a gift when you came to see me? I've heard that foreigners have a lot of fun. I haven't seen them. "

Chen Qiuwu really brought it to her.

His handsome face was slightly red. He took out a small brocade box from his pocket. This is the ring he prepared for his future wife. Although western wedding is not popular in China, he was deeply influenced by new ideas and bought a pair of platinum rings. However, if his fiancee doesn't like it, he won't take it out.

"Mother, go out first?"

Mrs. Yan:?

"Forget it, I'd better go out." Linglong invited Chen Qiuwu, "do you want to go out for a walk? My garden is very well managed. "

Mrs. Yan:!!!

How can there be such a girl's home!

She really wanted to cover her daughter's mouth and drag her back, but when she turned her head, the old polite but alienated young master of the Chen family was full of smiles at the meeting! No, Mrs. Yan doesn't understand. Are those who have studied abroad so different in aesthetics from them? She was worried that her daughter didn't wrap her feet. If they went out together, they would be despised by the young master of the Chen family!

But now it doesn't seem like a dislike. The two small ones obviously look at each other!

Mrs. Yan:... I don't understand. I really don't understand.

As Linglong said, the Yan Family's garden is really well managed. Chen Qiuwu is a gentle gentleman. He asked Linglong if she has other ideas about the engagement. If so, please make it clear to him and he will spare no effort to help her.

Although he did not think it was wrong for a woman to dissolve her engagement, he still had to pay attention to her integrity in the general environment.

New ideas also need to be accepted by others. In a place like the countryside, no matter what name he refuses to marry her, it seems to others that it is a woman's fault.

Because men can't make mistakes.

Linglong said, "I'm willing to marry you. Is it because you have a passionate girl you like abroad, so you don't want to marry me?"

Chen Qiuwu hurriedly said, "not so."

"How did that happen?"

She tilted her little head and looked at him with a beautiful smile and full of aura. Chen Qiuwu was full of joy. He thought that his future wife would be a graceful and old-fashioned woman. He didn't expect that she would be so ancient and strange. She didn't have much expectation. Therefore, when he found that she was several times better than expected, the whole person was happy“ I am also willing to marry you, but are you sure you want to marry me? You are too young. Maybe when you grow up in the future, you will regret marrying so early. "

Linglong said, "no, I won't marry anyway. Your mother and my mother won't promise. Don't you come back because of this?"

The great writer of the future was pierced in an instant.

Linglong looked up at him. Chen Qiuwu was seven years older than her. She was very tall and had to be about one meter eight, but she was still very thin and petite. "I also want to see what the outside world looks like. I don't want to stay here forever. Can you take me with you when you leave?"

Chen Qiuwu was stunned and immediately smiled: "naturally."

He didn't intend to leave her. If he became a relative and married, he would naturally take her away and take her outside to see more scenery. What kind of man is it to leave his wife in his hometown after marriage?

"Then let's make a deal?" Linglong stretched out her hand, "draw the hook."

Chen Qiuwu was used to the handshake etiquette in the west, but when he touched the girl's delicate and white fingers, his heart beat like thunder, which made him clearly realize that the "love at first sight" described in the original literary works was not empty talk. He also felt the call and palpitation of love, which gave him infinite joy, The resistance to the marriage gradually disappeared.

When they finished pulling the hook, he took out the ring from the small brocade box and solemnly put it on for Linglong, "this is a pledge token rising abroad. I will treat you well and live up to you."

Linglong raised her hand to have a look. Her small hand was white and delicate. She smiled at Chen Qiuwu: "OK."

They walked around the garden again. That afternoon, Chen Qiuwu came home with a smile on her face. Mrs. Chen's heart in mid air also fell down. She was afraid that her son would not accept the marriage and reasoned with herself when she came home. Now she was relieved to see Chen Qiuwu in a happy mood.

Chen Qiuwu said to his mother that he wanted to take his wife away.

Although Mrs. Chen is old-fashioned, she is not a ruthless person. Her wife should have stayed with her husband to serve. The reason why she said before that she let Chen Qiuwu go and do whatever she wants is that Chen Qiuwu refused to accept the marriage. Since he is willing to accept it, it is naturally the best.

In addition, Chen Qiuwu's holiday was not long, so Mrs. Chen invited Mrs. Yan to discuss the marriage, hoping to do it as soon as possible.

Mrs. Yan wants it!

She's really afraid of her daughter's true appearance. The Chen family returns it! You'd better marry your daughter out when your son-in-law wants to!

So the two sides successfully reached an agreement. It happened that half a month later it was a auspicious day, and the day was set.

On the day of marriage, people from Yan's family and girls of the same age came to add makeup to Linglong. Mrs. Chen doesn't like western style weddings. How can anyone wear white for marriage? It's too frustrating and unlucky! Marriage naturally had to follow the rules of her ancestors, so Linglong was called up early in the morning, at her mercy, and she could sleep while sitting.

The delicate little face is flawless. The mother who put on her makeup doesn't know how to make the bride more beautiful. At that time, the young girls come in. Although they are not very familiar with Linglong, everyone will say auspicious words, including Gao.

Gao always frowned.

For no other reason, Linglong is really disgraceful!

How can a bride be so casual and unruly as she is? Actually lift the cover and talk to them? And that pair of Tianzu. It really makes people feel unhappy. Until now, Gao doesn't understand where Yan is better than himself! How can Mrs. Chen take a fancy to such a woman who doesn't bind her feet and has no rules? She doesn't have any gentleness of a young lady?

When Chen Qiuwu came back, he often walked around with Mrs. Chen. Gao Shi also met him once. The young man was really beautiful, unmarried and as gentle as jade. Wearing a long shirt on his body, it seemed that he saw the elegant and beautiful childe described in ancient poetry. The conditions of the Chen family were so good and young master Chen was a talent. Gao Shi really didn't understand why Mrs. Chen chose Yan as her daughter-in-law!

She also became more and more regretful. She had known that she should not have eaten half a bowl of sweet soup in the morning, resulting in abdominal pain. It must be that she had to go to the toilet after sitting for so long, which made Mrs. Chen unhappy.

Otherwise, she should be the young grandmother of the Chen family!

If you lose the young master of the Chen family, even if you have a rich family, you can't compare with the Chen family. Gao's heart is helpless. He just hopes that his parents can find a better son-in-law to take advantage of the dragon, which is better than that he hasn't married at his age.

But the more I think of young master Chen, the more unwilling I am. I always feel that Linglong has robbed my good marriage, so I don't deal with Linglong more and more.

Unfortunately, Linglong only cares about sleepiness and doesn't want to talk to her at all.

You said that you hated Chen Qiuwu very much in your previous life. You resented him for negating you and harming you all your life. This time, you went back to the beginning. She, the largest charity dragon in the wasteland sea, met your wishes from the beginning so that you could start over again. You didn't say thank you. You still resented her?

If Chen Qiuwu hadn't come to greet her, Linglong would have wanted to teach Gao how to be a man.

After Chen Qiuwu went to study, he cut his braids and left short hair. Today, he was dressed in a red suit and looked more and more like a jade tree facing the wind. When others saw her, they secretly envied that Miss Yan family could get such a good husband. Although her husband would go abroad after she married, her position in the main room could not be changed. After worshiping the genealogy in the hall, Miss Yan family was the young grandmother of Chen family! If you have another son and a half, do you still have to worry for the rest of your life?

Chen Qiuwu enters the new house and welcomes the bride out. Gao stands aside and sees Chen Qiuwu smiling from beginning to end. It seems that he doesn't dislike marrying a woman without foot binding at all.

She knew that she had no chance with him, but she inevitably felt sorry. She imagined that if such a good husband were her own.

Chen Qiuwu felt the little hand under the palm suddenly pull him, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help laughing, so he whispered to her, "are you okay? Did you eat in the morning? "

He heard that the bride is not allowed to eat in the morning.

Linglong also whispered, "I ate snacks secretly, but my mother didn't find it."

Chen Qiuwu smiled. He felt that some rules were unreasonable. There was no way to prevent the bride from eating. However, Mrs. Chen insisted that he didn't say much, so as not to stimulate his mother and trouble the bride again.

When they arrived at Chen's house and worshipped heaven and earth, Mrs. Chen finally fulfilled a long cherished wish. In the future, there was no need to worry about her son's failure to get married. She was very glad that she had chosen a daughter-in-law without foot binding by mistake. Otherwise, with her son's character, she might not have promised to marry so readily!

However, when it comes to the bridal chamber, Chen Qiuwu insisted on refusing. The bridegroom and bride eat the same apple, and the bridegroom takes off the bride's wedding clothes in the dark. He doesn't like it. He doesn't care even if others laugh that he can't afford to play. Anyway, don't make the bridal chamber.

But it's still necessary to go out to toast. The Chen family has a large family and many people. Many elders have to respect it. After all, if he is not at home in the future, his mother has to rely on the help of his people.

Before he left, he told the servants in his new house to send them some food. I don't know if she would like it.

There was only one person left in the new house. Linglong immediately opened the cover and threw it aside. She grabbed the complicated wedding clothes, left the bed and sat at the table.

Chen Qiuwu's mind is delicate and gentle. What people bring is good imported food. Linglong scoops a small wonton into her mouth. The frightening snap of her teeth suddenly bursts out an amazing fragrance. She narrows her eyes with satisfaction, eats a small bowl of wonton cleanly, and takes a fancy to a pile of mung bean cakes on the side.
