Chapter 276: marriage tree

After finally getting rid of the long-winded Song Mo, Xiao Lingchuan rode a fast horse and took Li Haitang straight to Yuelao Temple.

The Marriage Tree grew somewhere in the back mountain, and Yuelao Temple built a separate courtyard there, with a circle of side rooms built around it, which was used as a meditation room for rich people to rest.

Yuelao Temple is quiet and quiet, with the breeze blowing from all sides, the Marriage Tree is covered with a layer of hazy moonlight, some leaves are hidden in the shadow, and there are faint sounds of insects on the tree.

There are many purses and sachets hanging from the tree, which is believed to be the testimony of men and women who once vowed to eachother.

Li Haitang unwrapped the sachet from the corner of her skirt and put it in her hand. Like every believer, she closed her eyes and prayed devoutly.

Xiao Lingchuan stood behind Li Haitang, with his hands behind his back, and he looked into the distance with a blank expression on his face.

The wind blew wantonly his black robe and dark black hair, his eyes were deep and deep, making people feel an indescribable depression and loneliness.

"Husband, I beg you, let's hang up together."

Li Haitang turned his head, smiling like a flower, Xiao Lingchuan also relaxed his body in an instant, the layer of frost wrapped around his body shattered layer by layer, turning into spring water and flowing.

With her, he felt like a human being, with blood, flesh, and heartbeat.

"it is good."

There is only one word, but it contains infinite pampering. Xiao Lingchuan stretched out his hand, and he and his wife grabbed the corner of the sachet, jumped up into the air with tacit understanding, and hung the sachet on the top of the marriage tree.

Regardless of the wind and rain, even if the sea is dry and the rocks are rotten, there is only one person in this life.

Li Haitang looked like a little girl, circling around the tree excitedly, the sky was dim, she was under the tree, blocked by the dense branches and leaves, unable to see clearly the sachet hanging on the top.

"Husband, if one day we come to Licheng again, we will make an appointment here to ask for another marriage tree."

Although she doesn't like this place, she is willing to come again for the sake of the marriage tree and the good meaning.

"it is good."

Xiao Lingchuan embraced Li Haitang, and pressed a light kiss on her forehead, this kiss was more like an oath.

The couple walked around the marriage tree and found that there were not many people here. After a long while, they only met two or three couples.

Among them, there is a pair who are obviously country people, judging by their age, they are at least forty years old.

The two couples are talkative people, and now they have a house full of children and grandchildren, manly, every year, the couple will come to the marriage tree to pray for blessings.

My home is a bit far from here, so I have to drive a bullock cart from home one day in advance. Sometimes, to save money, I don’t stay in a hotel, but nest under a tree and sleep.

Husband and wife for many years, living in poverty, not to mention rich, but not hungry.

"Little lady, if you come to pray for blessings, you will surely grow old together."

The aunt smiled, the Marriage Tree of Yuelao Temple, there are relatively few people coming, if you go to the front hall, the incense is constantly burning, and unmarried men and women come here to seek marriage, it is said that it is quite effective.

After getting married, who has the leisure to be entangled in trivial matters?

A woman has to serve her parents-in-law at home, and if the family is separated, she also has to take care of the children. When the children grow up, get married and have children, they will also be old.

Thinking about firewood, rice, oil and salt, I no longer have the thought of praying for blessings.

"That's exactly the reason."

Li Haitang deeply believes that time is a butcher's knife, and the most important thing is mentality.

She didn't want to have children in the future, so she devoted all her heart to them and ignored the savage husband. After all, she and he were the ones who would live a lifetime.

Saying goodbye to the middle-aged couple, Xiao Lingchuan asked for a wing room.

Yuelao Temple Wing Room is dedicated to provide accommodation, only in the corner, the last room left.

The husband and wife snuggled together and chatted for a while, then Li Haitang fell asleep in his arms.

"Lady, wake up, the sun will rise in a while."

There is a little white belly in the east, and it passed away quietly overnight.

Li Haitang rubbed his eyes, and realized that his savage husband was still in the same posture as last night, hugging her like this, without moving for several hours.

There was a moment of blankness in her mind, and then, subconsciously, she beat his shoulder with her fist and helped him massage.

Xiao Lingchuan didn't stop, but closed his eyes comfortably.

After a while, the couple fetched water to wash up.

Yuelao Temple does not provide hot water, only the well water in the backyard, wash with cold water, Li Haitang refreshed quickly.

There is a platform next to the Marriage Tree, and dozens of people are already standing there, staring at the fiery red sky in the distance, without saying a word.

Xiao Lingchuan held his wife's hand, found an open place, and waited for the sun to rise.

Not long after, the sky turned redder, and the sun gradually revealed half of its head from behind the mountain, and when the whole picture was revealed, golden light radiated from all around.

Everything around is coated in a layer of morning light.

The flowers and plants in the corner were stained with dew, and Li Haitang playfully tapped them with his hands, his mood was very bright.

Regardless of the vicissitudes of the world, the sunrise and sunset will not change. No matter how big an issue is today, it will be a trivial matter tomorrow. There is no obstacle that cannot be overcome.

"It's late, let's have breakfast, and then meet them at the city gate."

In the past few days in Licheng, troubles have happened one after another. Li Haitang's mind is tense. Now that she is about to leave, she curls up her mouth in a good mood.

For breakfast, the couple ate a bowl of bean curd flower on the side of the street, served with sesame seed cakes and fried noodles.

The people in Licheng are diligent and hardworking. Soon after dawn, shopkeepers and small vendors went out to sell the specialties of Licheng, such as Baihua cakes, Baihua wine, and lucky bags and sachets made of Baihua to passers-by.

Before leaving, Li Haitang bought a lot of special products. She planned to go home to send Chun Niang, Li Xia, and Second Uncle Chen and Aunt Chen at home.

"Husband, put my big basket of sea cucumbers on it for me."

Sea cucumbers are not very easy to carry. For this reason, Xiao Lingchuan added a compartment above the carriage, so that it is easy to dry.

When they arrived at the city gate, Liusu and Ruan Pingzhi had been waiting for a long time.

"Haitang, get in my carriage, my carriage is spacious!"

When Liusu saw someone from the car window, she immediately waved and smiled so hard that she couldn't see her teeth. She was eager to chat with Li Haitang. These days, she was suffocated.

"Wait a minute."

Li Haitang looked up at the sky and was speechless about his taste in tassels. The carriages around the carriage were all yellow and densely packed with tassels hanging all around. People with dense phobia might not be able to approach them at all.

The most pitiful thing is the horse pulling the cart in front. I don’t know what has dyed the horse’s hair. The hair turns pink, and the horse’s eyelashes are all pink.

As expected of people in the black market, the horses that pull the carts are all rare species, and some kind of mutation may have occurred.

"Hai Tang, how is it? My horse is beautiful, right? Don't look at the pink hair, it's actually a stallion." As for why the hair changed color, Tassel didn't know. She got a few poisons in the south and used a horse In the experiment, after the horse was poisoned, it did not die, and the color of its hair became more beautiful.
