Chapter 76
Gala's love and love for Li Bing seemed nothing in front of Hua Shang who had silently given her. Gala felt so heartbroken.
Li Bing's unclear response, Li Bing's ambiguous attitude, why Li Bing always pretends to be confused, and why he can't face his feelings directly, Gala seemed to have the answer at this moment.
Gala dared not resent the fourth sister, nor was he qualified to resent the fourth sister. The fourth sister has already paid enough for her and her elder sister!
But Gala's heart hurt so much that she should have noticed it long ago. Since the fourth sister's shiny eyes when she first saw Li Bing, she should have thought of it. Gala returned to Yang's mansion in dismay.
Standing at the gate of Yang's mansion, Galu suddenly thought: What qualifications do you have to look forward to the future with Li Bing! It is a destined thing for him to be Yang Jian's wife. No matter how hard he tries, he will struggle without any effort!
On the wedding day, the fourth prince wore a python robe and replenished clothes. He first went to the emperor and saluted in turn in the empress's harem; then saluted the concubine. At the same time, the minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs brought twenty officials and forty guards to the concubine's house to welcome the bride.
After entering the palace, the concubine went to the prince's palace to celebrate the ceremony with the fourth prince. The good-fate wife sang the song of congratulations, and the fourth prince and his wife drank the wine. Everyone retreated.
Both of them were a little nervous. Yu Wenchang had already thought about what to say, but his tongue seemed to be knotted. Hua Shang was up and down. This day determined his lifelong destiny and even felt a little sad.
Yuwen Chan said: "Hua Shang." Hua Shang slowly turned his head to look at him with a heavy headdress. Yuwen Chan blushed: "It's okay." Hua Shang was a little angry: "Why are you asking me for if you don't have to hold on to something so heavy."
Yuwen Chan was also exhausted and felt wronged: "I have not been relaxed these days. I haven't seen you for so long, so I'll be annoyed if I call you." Yuwen Chan suddenly thought that it was not good to have a quarrel since I got married, and both of them stopped talking.
On this day, the prince's palace was decorated with a wedding banquet. The palace held a banquet to entertain his concubine's parents and relatives of Guarja. The civil and military ministers and good-destined women attended the banquet to congratulate him. The people who served in the new house retreated, and even the people who served them to change their clothes retreated. Both of them changed their pajamas, and the atmosphere was a bit solemn.
Yuwen Chan blushed and said, "Hua Shang, it's late at night, let's sleep!" Hua Shang was uneasy. When he heard this sentence of a mosquito humming and looking at Yu Wen Chan's shy look, he suddenly burst out laughing.
Hua Shang walked up to him, as if he was about to say something, but he didn't say it. He walked around behind him and wanted to blow out the candle. However, Xi Po, who was guarding the door, said: "Princess, this candle must be lit all night and cannot be extinguished!"
Hua Shang's face was still blushing, and the red candles in the house kept flashing, and neither of them could sleep. Yu Wenchang kept talking about childhood, from four to six, and from nine to nine, he fell asleep before he could even fall asleep. At the age of sixteen, the teenagers got married.
The next morning, Yuwen Chan took the concubine to pay homage to the emperor, the queen and the concubine in turn, and then returned to his mansion.
After getting married, you can move out of the palace. The two of them looked at the newly decorated house in front of them and felt both strange and warm. Finally, they got rid of the nightmarish palace, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
However, Yang Jian's life after marriage was not satisfactory. Zu Chongzhi died of illness not long ago. Gala did not forget Zu Chongzhi's last wish. She wanted to sort out Mr. Zu Chongzhi's manuscripts.
The things written by Zu Chongzhi are all small seal scripts. Gala originally learned mainly simplified characters. Although he also knew some traditional Chinese characters, he could not understand them at all.
Gala finally left the palace and did not have as much constraints as before. She invited two scholars who were familiar with the calendar to become disciples of Prince Chan's mansion to organize Zu Chongzhi's works.
Gala was doting at home by Dugu Xin, but she was restricted by family rules and had to restrain herself. But now the young grandmother in the Yang family was in charge and could make decisions on her own. Yang Jian was no match for him at all. Gala was the first to fight and then to snatch. When Yang Jian complained, Gala "beat, smash, and rob" the mansion.
When I beat my husband Yang Jian, I had already prepared more than a dozen feather dusters, and I would buy them after interrupting them. I smashed porcelain, vases, and teapots, no matter how expensive it was, I would like to feel sorry for you. I would grab cultural relics, and I would take them all for myself, such as Zhu Yunjiang Ji and Huaisu's "Self-Portraits".
After a few days of stalemate, Gala took the initiative to surrender and suddenly became a virtuous wife, giving Yang Jian some sunshine. Everything was so beautiful again. Such tactics have been tried and tested. Victory will always belong to Gala.
Yang Jian couldn't hold on to Gala, and Yuwen Chan gave him a trick. Yuwen Chan said: "You are used to being a model husband, and you obey her words and obey her everything. She can't feel that you are better. You go with me and listen to the music and drink, and she will please you."
Yang Jian did not return overnight. The next day, he didn't know how to explain to Gala after he returned home, so Yuwen Chan sent him back. Gala was like someone who was fine, and didn't ask where he was going. He didn't want to pay attention to him.
Yang Jian got angry first: "I haven't come back all night, what's your attitude? Don't you have to ask where I'm going?" Galo stood up and said: "Okay, then I'll ask you where you've been, little girl."
Gala looked disdainful. “Yang Jian threw the teacup and said, “You look down on me!” Gala became even more arrogant: “I just look down on you, what’s wrong, you’re a coward.” The two had a big fight, but Gala won.
Although Gala won, she locked herself in the room and started crying when she returned to her room. Why did she marry such a useless person? Gala got angry and separated.
Without having dinner together, Yang Jian didn't see Gala for three days. He suddenly sighed: "She can hide from me for such a long time in such a house." He was at least a noble young man. In fact, the house was not small, but Gala knew his every move too much. It was easy to avoid him.
It was already the fourth day that he hadn't had dinner with Gala. Yang Jian walked to the door of Gala's room without realizing it. He pretended to cough for a while, Gala was in the room and just ignored him.
Yang Jian turned around and wanted to leave. He was almost out of the yard, so he planned to bow his head first. He remembered what Yinzhen said to him, "If you always bow your head first, you will never be able to raise your head in front of your wife."
He said to himself, "If you can't raise your head, you can't raise your head. I'm just afraid of my wife, so what." Yang Jian knocked on the door and shouted against his will: "Is anyone? Galo open the door."
Yang Jian thought: Why is marrying a wife like marrying a Bodhisattva? She is still not satisfied with it. Galo opened the door. Yang Jian looked at her and said, "I know I'm wrong."
Even he himself felt that this sentence made him disgusted. “Gala said, “Do you want to stand at the door or come in?”
I don’t know if it’s been a long time since I met. Although Yang Jian was reluctant to admit his mistake, he kept smiling foolishly at Gala.
Galo looked at him and wanted to pretend to be angry. He heard how he admitted his mistake. Seeing him smiling, he couldn't help laughing.
Gala thought: I'm afraid the only fool Yang Jian is tolerant of me so much. Gala said, "Why are you looking at me all the time?" Yang Jian said, "Because I like you!"
These days, Prince Chan is often called to the palace by the emperor to discuss military and national affairs. He has not had a meal with Hua Shang for several days. Now he has to pour it out while he is eating.
Yuwen Chan said: "Do you remember Hua Shang? Every time I cry, the eunuch in the Cining Palace will say that Prince Chan is angry, so he will cry and lose his anger. Then, he throws me into an empty room and then puts it in the door."
Hua Shang said: "Why don't you remember that you were locked inside alone, no matter how you shouted, scolded, kicked the door, begged, cried, and no one paid attention to you, and you kept knocking on the door."
Yuwen Chan smiled and said, "Then I heard a knock on the door on the other side, you were knocking on the door. You knocked three times, I knocked three times. As I knocked, I stopped crying. They let me out."
Hua Shang smiled and said, "You have had stomach problems since you were a child. Once you ate too much peaches and were overwhelmed. Because the Empress Dowager said that Prince Chan had bad stomach, you drank white rice porridge for half a month. He always called him hungry and went to my house to steal fruits. The Empress Dowager scolded the slave and took more strict control of you. He ate another half a month of porridge."
Yuwen Chan said: "Only you know these things, this is your memory that belongs to me." Yuwen Chan is shy and doesn't talk much in front of the princes. He only occasionally jokes and talks in front of Hua Shang. It is a strange thing for him to confess his love like this.
Hua Shang pretended to be unhappy and said, "It's so sour. It's okay if you don't study hard at the prince, but you're a scholar who learns acetic acid." The two laughed together.
However, what made Yuwen Chan and Hua Shang the most trouble was that they were always monitored by the mother arranged by the concubine. The mother could not stand it a little, so she would report it to the concubine in a titular way.
Sometimes even some of the mothers' imaginations would be reported to the concubine, similar to "the concubine attacked Prince Chan's enthusiasm for studying", "The Prince Chan's study is not good, and the concubine not only does not encourage him, but is stubborn with him. Seeing Prince Chan becoming more and more backward, the concubine didn't feel at all."
Prince Chan was already married and was considered an adult, so he was very dissatisfied with his mother always interfering with him. On this day, Gala came to Prince Yong's mansion to visit Hua Shang.
But Gala was very outspoken and didn't worry about the wall being heard. She said, "She just saw you as a soft persimmon, let her pinch it. I think she is more tolerant to Yuwen Zhi than you. What do you think?"
This sentence came to Yuwen Chan's heart. Yuwen Chan really felt that the concubine was partial. What's even more annoying was that the concubine was actually partial. However, the whisper between Yuwen Chan and Gala was heard by the old woman who listened to the wall.
The concubine was so angry that she heard this. The concubine thought: Prince Chan was only sixteen now, and they were both determined to argue with me. If she was a little older, wouldn’t she even refuse to recognize me, my biological mother. She really “married my wife and forgot my mother.”
