Xia Mingchi's attention was always on the pendant.

The necklace was worn by Lu Qihuai close to her body, so it must be something very important, if she asks it rashly, it may embarrass the other party.

And "The Lie of the Rose" may have been brushed by other players.

Just like what he said just now, if you want to talk, Lu Qihuai will naturally tell him, if you don't want to talk, you can't ask anything at all.

Lu Qihuai packed up the clothes, "The stitches are very good, who did you learn from?"

"My grandma taught me. She made many clothes for me when I was young."

Mentioning his grandmother, Xia Mingchi thought of the old man welling up in his heart.

The work in the afternoon is engraving, which is to carve the disassembled cowhide separately.

Tribo is like an overseer, with a cigarette in his mouth, circling behind the player.

"This is the last one. You have to be very careful. The cowhide is currently in a very thin state. If you don't grasp the strength properly, it will be pierced."

There is a small spark in the cigarette butt, and choking white smoke floats from the spark.

Fu Qingchou frowned, and the work in hand didn't stop.

He played the piano, his fingers were slender and fair, and his skin was originally flawless.But not long after entering this dungeon, his hands began to dry out.

Zhou Zheng remained silent, and took the skin in Fu Qingchou's hand to his side.

"You can really bear it. You still hold back even though you're so choking. Your hands can't do rough work. Let me do it."

Fu Qingchou moved her lips and said softly, "Thank you."

"It's nothing." Zhou Zheng said carelessly.

During the last wedding banquet, Fu Qingchou helped him, which can basically be regarded as a life-saving grace.When the two of them went to get things, Fu Qingchou took more, while he took less.

He's not used to being taken care of by others, so it's really nothing to help Fu Qingchou do more manual work.

Aunt Yun stood outside and called, "Come on, young man, help me move the wedding things to the donkey cart."

Shen Jiming seemed to be holding on to a life-saving straw, and dropped the carving knife in his hand at will, running and shouting as if afraid of being snatched by others.

"I'll go, I'll go—!"

The last time the wedding candy was able to defend against the shadow puppetry, it does not mean that this time it can also.Shen Jiming's previous tasks were not considered active, but now he is very active. I don't know what he has in mind.

His current performance directly separates himself from the other four players.

Tribo said, "I'll go see how Cui Ming's preparations are going."

There were four people left at the scene, Xia Mingchi said in a novel: "Although there is no way to use the old ones now, I have a way to add new shadow puppets."

When Zhou Zheng heard this, he quickly got up and closed the window and door.

"What way?" Zhou Zheng asked.

Xia Mingchi looked at the other three people, "They are Cui Ming and Cui Mian. They are shadow puppets. We will cut and change the color based on them."

"When Aunt Yun was drying the sheets, she mentioned that there were too many new shadow puppets. There were originally eight shadow puppets to be made, but now we are making three. Counting the new shadow puppets that Aunt Yun said, there are still four missing."

Fu Qingchou said: "Including Cui Ming and Cui Mian, there are still two missing."

Xia Mingchi laughed mysteriously.

Zhou Zheng: "Cui Bo and Aunt Yun!"

Xia Mingchi: "Take care of Cui Ming and Cui Mian first, but I can't trust Shen Jiming."

Fu Qingchou's hand tightened the carving knife, "The plan is to let me hear it, which means you can trust me?"

"I can't believe it. But I know, at least for now, choosing you is more reliable than choosing Shen Jiming."

"From the time he chose to calculate his partner, I have excluded him. He is not a person who can cooperate."

Everyone can see Shen Jiming's selfishness and wretchedness. In order to survive, it is understandable to use any means to pass the customs in this place without legal and moral constraints.

Although he said he understood, he still didn't want to be with this kind of person in his heart.

Although he didn't have close friends, Fu Qingchou took the initiative to save Zhou Zheng, and he gave Xia Mingchi a better impression than Shen Jiming.After experiencing Zheng Bin, Xia Mingchi didn't dare to judge Fu Qingchou's character rashly.

Fu Qingchou asked: "What do you want me to do?"

In the evening when work was over, Aunt Yun stood in front of the workshop with a bamboo basket in her hand to urge her.

"Children, quickly follow me to the small auditorium!"

Xia Mingchi came out, only to see that Aunt Yun was dressed beautifully, and even put on makeup.

But her make-up technique was rather clumsy, she didn't apply powder, her face was still sallow, her two thick eyebrows were crooked, and her lipstick was painted bloody.Wearing a bright red dress, at first glance she thought it was her who was going to get married.

Everyone stepped on the muddy road to the small auditorium deep in the town.

Shen Jiming followed Cui Bo and Aunt Yun, while Xia Mingchi and Lu Qihuai walked at the end of the line.

Lu Qihuai asked softly: "You can't trust Fu Qingchou, why can you trust me?"

These words hit Xia Mingchi's heart directly.

"I can't believe it." Xia Mingchi stubbornly raised his eyes and looked at Lu Qihuai.

He seemed to be warning himself, reminding himself not to lose his judgment on Lu Qihuai because of hormones.

But this limitation is painful because it is the mind that is to be controlled.

He stumbled once on Zheng Bin's matter, and he couldn't turn over again.

Lu Qihuai said softly: "But I believe in you, you will never hurt me at any time, right?"

During the speech, Lu Qihuai's arm accidentally touched Xia Mingchi's arm.

……

This gentleness instantly disintegrated Xia Mingchi's rationality.

Xia Mingchi took a deep breath, quickened his pace, and walked to Zhou Zheng's side.

Zhou Zheng was surprised: "Sister-in-law, why don't you go with my elder brother?"

"Don't call me sister-in-law from now on." Xia Mingchi said seriously.

Zhou Zheng: "Good sister-in-law."

Xia Mingchi: ...

The happy characters were pasted on the pillars of the auditorium again, and the color of the red paper was extremely bright at night, so colorful that it was shocking.

The paper is not yet dry and liquid is dripping from it.

Aunt Yun: "Oh, preparations for my son's wedding were too hasty. There was no red paper. I dyed it myself with white paper for funerals. It didn't dry out yet, so I'm so sorry..."

She stretched out her old black cloth shoes and rubbed the red droplets on the concrete floor. The liquid was wrapped in dust and rubbed into mud.

Aunt Yun took out small red flowers from the bamboo basket she was carrying and pinned them to her chest.

Tribo said: "Let's make the master table with me."

In the auditorium, the layout was the same as the previous wedding, and even the positions of the guests were similar.

Xia Mingchi remembered the old lady sitting next to her who enthusiastically wanted to introduce someone to Lu Qihuai, she even smiled at Lu Qihuai.

"Cough!" Xia Mingchi coughed.

For some reason, he felt that the NPC was an eyesore, and suddenly became irritable.

"Hello." Lu Qihuai smiled politely at the old lady.

The old lady moved the chair and wanted to sit over again, "Squeeze, I will sit back later when the table starts."

Xia Mingchi didn't move at all, "This table is only for the host's house, it's too troublesome for you to move around."

The old lady resentfully withdrew her hand.

Lu Qihuai licked her face and moved closer to Xia Mingchi, "What's wrong with you..."

"It's nothing." The boy didn't look at him.

He really wasn't aware of his odd reaction.jealous?impossible?

He just cares about his teammates and is afraid that his teammates will be tricked.

Well, yes, it must be.

The wedding begins, and the host from last time comes to the stage to announce the entry of the bride and groom.

Surrounded by suona, hoarse and mocking voices, such as weeping and complaining, the colored lights changed and shone.

Cui Ming finally put on clean clothes, and he looked a bit like a clown with the ill-fitting suit on him.

He had a ferocious smile on his face, and his mouth was split open, revealing a row of thin, dense inverted triangle teeth.

Standing next to her was a bride in Xiuhe with a red hijab on her head, with golden handcuffs on her white wrists.

The bride whimpered and sobbed softly, but made no protest.

The two newcomers circled around, and then set up a white curtain on the stage.Cui Ming and the bride stood behind the white curtain, and their figures became shadow puppets.

The two shadow puppets worship the heavens and the earth first, then their parents, and finally the husband and wife.

The sound of the suona became more urgent and piercing, and the shadow puppets were also jubilant.

At the end of the song, the host announced the bride and groom toast.Cui Ming and his so-called "wife" stepped out from behind the white curtain and took human form again.

When paying respects to Xia Mingchi's table, Xia Mingchi said: "Congratulations, congratulations, let's have a cup of wine. It's a custom in my hometown that couples can live a long life after drinking a cup of wine."

Cui Ming glanced shyly at the bride, then at his father.

Tribble stuffed his own finger into his mouth, and said cheerfully, "Drink, drink, young people still know how to do this."

With handcuffs on both hands and a hijab on his head, it is not convenient to drink a cup of wine.

Xia Mingchi: "Why don't you take off the bracelet first, and put it back on after drinking a glass of wine."

As soon as he said it, Aunt Yun and Cui Bo both changed their expressions.

Aunt Yun quickly put down her chopsticks, "How can I do that? I took off the hijab because I found it inconvenient."

It seems that the handcuffs are indeed controlling the bride. They would rather the bride take off her hijab than let her take off the "bracelet".

Cui Ming lifted the hijab, and the bride inside was wearing heavy makeup, but she still couldn't hide her beauty.

It's Chen Yan!

Chen Yan no longer had the look she had before, the skin on her face had weird textures, her black pupils became the size of black beans, her eyes were dull and stupid.

Her arm bent mechanically, passed through Cui Ming's arm, and brought the wine glass to her lips.

She could only part her small red lips, she didn't drink much wine, most of it spilled out along the corner of her mouth, soaking Xiuhe's collar.

Chen Yan said before that she doesn't drink alcohol herself.Although it has become like this, the body and instinct are still fighting against the game.

Aunt Yun scolded from the side: "This prodigal daughter-in-law! How can you waste food!"

Shen Jiming put down his tie button guiltily, and stood in an awkward posture.

He felt that Chen Yan was always looking at him, but after careful identification, he didn't seem to be there.

But that doesn't matter anymore.

Shen Jiming held a cup to the bride and stuttered, "Congratulations, from now on... Let's live a good life with your husband from now on."

I just didn't hold my hand properly, who made you so unlucky, you just fell off "just in time", and fell on your head again "just in time".

Whoever made Cui Ming fall in love with you, who made Aunt Yun promise that if she helps her fulfill you and Cui Ming, she will let me live.

So don't blame me at all.

When Chen Yan heard this, her dull eyes suddenly opened wide, as if a sleeping person was suddenly awakened, and her body shook slightly.

Eventually, the heavy gold bracelets weighed down on her, and the eyes reverted to dead fish eyes.

The players watched Cui Ming and Chen Yan go to another table with mixed emotions. Aunt Yun sat back in her seat and drank the liquor in the wine cup, as if to warn the players not to have other ideas——

"As long as you marry into our town and become a member of the town, you will always be."

The so-called shadow puppet town, shadow puppets.
