    Chapter 31 Side Comments

    The sixteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, sunny

    This day is unforgettable for Guo Fu.

    According to the custom at that time, all six rites must be prepared before it can be orthodox.

    "But the two families are too far apart. If we want to follow the etiquette, we can't do it in half a year. It is really troublesome."  Xiao Yuesheng chose the main thing and did it, and saved the details if he could.

    This has made Guo Jing and his wife extremely satisfied. When they got married, it was much simpler than this. Huang Yaoshi hated these etiquettes, so how could he follow them.

    With one sentence, Huang Rong was married to Guo Jing. The wedding was not held at all. Now, they are still in love and in harmony.

    Although Guo Jing and Huang Rong had a wonderful idea, today is different from the past, and their identities have long been different. It is not an ordinary matter like Miss Guo getting married.

    Guo Jing and his wife were so respected in Xiangyang that people respected them as gods. Many people even set up immortality tablets in their homes to pray to God to protect them and their lives and to protect Xiangyang from being destroyed by the Mongols.

    In the eyes of the people of Xiangyang, if the hero Guo is there, the city of Xiangyang will survive. If the hero Guo is not there, then Xiangyang will be destroyed. At that time, the city will be massacred by the Mongols, and no one will be able to survive.

    People love Guo Jing and his wife as much as they love the house, and they also love and care for the three young ladies and gentlemen of Guo Mansion.

    Xiangyang City Yuelai Restaurant evening

    "He Laosan, why are you free to come here today?"

    "I'm off duty today. Come on, give me two plates of braised beef and pig's trotters. My lips have turned pale in the past two days! Grandpa's!"

    A tall man with a dark face and a burly body stomped up the stairs and shouted at the round shopkeeper who came up.

    "Two plates - braised pork, one plate - pig's trotters, serve them on a big plate!" The shopkeeper shouted twice towards the kitchen in a drawled voice.

    "I know, two plates of braised pork, one plate of pig's trotters, a big plate!" A man in the kitchen responded loudly and repeated it once.

    This Yuelai Restaurant is not big, with only a dozen tables. The tables and stools are a bit shabby, but extremely neat. It is obvious that this restaurant has been around for a long time.

    The location of Yuelai Restaurant is not good, close to the northeast corner. There is no market here, but only ordinary people's residences.

    Yuelai Restaurant was founded by the father of the current owner, who is over fifty years old. It can be considered an old restaurant. The food in the restaurant is delicious and the prices are fair and cheap. It can make a small amount of money safely. The business is not salty.  It's light and enough for food and clothing, which also makes the shopkeeper very satisfied.

    Most of the people who come here to eat are people from the surrounding area. When relatives come to visit and they need to entertain guests, they usually come here. If there is a happy event to celebrate, they will come here to have a big meal. When they have nothing to do, they will come here to have a few drinks.  Over tea, acquaintances gather together and chat lively.

    Yuelai Restaurant has become a gathering place. Everyone gathers here when they have something to do, chatting together, and arranging the dragon gate, which is a lot of fun.

    The owner of the restaurant is a good person and provides free tea. Everyone is welcome to sit here.

    At this time, it was in the evening, when people were free. After finishing the day's work, they could finally sit down and have a good rest. The building was full of people, some eating and some drinking tea.  , very lively.

    "He Laosan, haven't the Mongolian soldiers retreated long ago? What else do you city guards have to do?!" An old man with a gray beard sitting in the crowd asked leisurely, holding a tea cup. This old man had a thin face.  The spirit is strong, the gray whiskers are one by one, and the roots are fleshy, and they are extremely well maintained.

    "Yes, yes, once the Mongolian soldiers retreat, won't there be no need for you to protect the city?" Everyone was talking and asking questions, and suddenly they heard the commotion in the restaurant.

    "Haha, your idea is good, but our leader suddenly called us together a few days ago and said that we would strengthen the security in the city. Alas, we have to patrol like those soldiers all day long.  I'm really busy!" He Laosan seemed to be very popular, and everyone in the building pricked up their ears to listen to him.

    He was crazy, and when he saw everyone's eyes focused on him, he was very excited. He was physically strong and possessed martial arts skills, so he was naturally full of energy. He spoke loudly and his voice roared in the building. People thought  Don't listen unless you cover your ears.

    "Well, He Laosan is so busy, but it is also for us, the people of Xiangyang City. Come on, let's congratulate Lao San with a cup of tea first!" The old man stroked the gray beard under his chin, raised the tea cup, and brewed a cup of tea!  He Laosan paid a humble tribute.

    This old man has great prestige among the people. At that moment, everyone agreed, picked up the tea cup at hand, and took a sip, but they also seemed to be joining in the fun.

      He Laosan stood up quickly and waved his hands vigorously. Although his dark old face was slightly heated, it was difficult to see the change in color, "Don't you dare, Mr. Chen, you have broken me, He Laosan."  , Do you deserve it? To protect our Xiangyang City, we still need Guo Daxia and his wife. I, a little pawn, am just waving the flag and shouting from behind, so how can I take credit!"

    "We are naturally grateful to Mr. Guo and his wife. Without Mr. Guo, our city in Xiangyang would have been destroyed long ago. Come, let's offer another cup of tea to Mr. and Mrs. Guo. I wish them both happiness as good as the East China Sea and longevity as long as the Southern Mountains!" Mr. Chen heard when Guo Daxia  After saying three words, I felt awe in my heart, raised the cup and raised the cup again, turned my body to the south, raised it high, but found that there was no tea in the cup.

    After all, he was experienced and experienced in the world. Although he was embarrassed, he did not panic. He pretended to have tea in the cup and drank it all in one gulp.

    Although his words of blessing were very popular, few people here read, so they sounded like very learned congratulations.

    This time, everyone no longer made noises like before, and all looked solemn. Suddenly there was no sound in the building, only the sound of nails, clanging, pots and spoons hitting each other came from the kitchen not far away.

    Many of them had no tea in their cups and drank air like Mr. Chen.

    The round boss was busy holding a big teapot, and his second brother filled everyone's teacups.

    It was Mr. Chen who spoke again: "He Laosan, you are acting strangely. Is it because of something?"

    Before He Laosan could answer, someone had already answered: "It must be those Mongolians who want to plot against Guo Daxia and his wife. Have you heard anything?"

    "That's right, that must be the case. Those Mongolians couldn't do anything to Daxia Guo and his wife on the battlefield, so they wanted to use despicable means to harm them secretly. Those Mongolians are really abominable!"

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????? We eat their flesh, drink their blood, cramp their tendons, and peel their skin, in order to relieve the hatred in our hearts.

    A few words, when it came to the Mongols, people were naturally filled with indignation and spoke out one after another.

    He Laosan was just about to reply, but when he saw everyone making such a fuss, he could only stare helplessly and sit down to eat.

    Seeing everyone swearing at those Mongolians, Mr. Chen couldn't help but shut them up. Swearing a few words and letting out the suffocation in his heart will make people feel better, which is of great benefit to the body. It can also be regarded as a form of fitness.  method.

    He couldn¡¯t openly curse with them, so he could only close his eyes slightly and sit quietly with his hands upright, like an old monk in meditation.

    When everyone got a little thirsty from scolding and wanted to rest for a while, when the voices gradually became quieter, Mr. Chen opened his eyes, glanced at everyone, smiled and said to He Laosan who was already burping: "Hey.  Third brother, tell me quickly, I am very curious!"

    At this time, He Laosan was full of appetite. Hearing what Mr. Chen said, he put his shy belly away and said with a smile: "If Mr. Chen asks, I, He Laosan, will naturally tell me everything I know!"  "

    "Good boy, don't be glib, speak up!" Mr. Chen slowly stroked his beard and smiled slightly, without losing his complacency.

    "Yes, let me just say, hey, Miss Guo, do you all know?" He Laosan took the hot tea from the shopkeeper and asked everyone.

    "Miss Guo? Are you the daughter of Daxia Guo?" A person with a rough voice asked hurriedly.

    He Laosan nodded and glanced sideways at everyone.

    "Who doesn't know this? I once took a look at Miss Guo from a distance. Wow, she looks just like the person in the painting. She is so handsome!" Another person answered first, with a skinny body and a scorched face.  There were dense pockmarks on his face, and he said loudly in a showy tone.

    "Hey, Liu Mazi, you brought out the old sesame and rotten millet thing again. Have you really seen Miss Guo?" A tall, strong man next to the man asked with a sneer.

    "Of course I have seen it! Sun Dapao, don't you believe it?!" Mazi Liu shouted loudly.

    "Even if you have seen it, how many years ago was it? And you showed it off!" Sun Dapao deliberately ignored him, lazily picked up the tea cup on the table with a bit of disdain.

    "Huh, that's better than you. You've never even seen me! Sun Dapao, no wonder you always have trouble with me. Are you jealous of me! Huh? Haha -" That Liu Mazi is also a person who is easy to talk to.  Not at all inferior.

    "You!" Sun Dapao drank the tea cup heavily.

    "Okay, okay, please stop saying a few words. Neighbors, why are you making a fuss!" Mr. Chen waved his hand and suppressed the two of them.

    "As for Miss Guo, I have met her a few times." Mr. Chen gently stroked his sparse gray beard and talked slowly.

    "Mr. Chen, you are well-informed, and Miss Guo is really as good as the legend."Is it that beautiful inside?  "Sun Dapao asked with a very respectful attitude.

    Everyone¡¯s eyes were focused on Mr. Chen, their eyes full of curiosity. They had also been famous for Miss Guo¡¯s beauty for a long time.

    Mr. Chen glanced at everyone, his movements became slower and slower, and he nodded slowly, saying: "It is true, Miss Guo's beauty is indeed rare in the world. I am afraid that only the little dragon girl can compare with her!"

    "Little Dragon Girl? Is she Xiao Longnu, the wife of the Condor Hero?" someone asked.

    "Well, sixteen years ago, I had the honor to attend the martial arts competition and saw the beauty of Little Dragon Girl. She is indeed worthy of being called the most beautiful woman in the world. However, our Miss Guo is not inferior to her. Little Dragon Girl  Like a fairy in the sky, Miss Guo is the dragon girl on the earth. They are both good at each other and it is hard to tell them apart!" Having participated in a martial arts competition sixteen years ago was the most proud thing in Mr. Chen's life.

    "Alas, it's a pity that we didn't get to see either of these two peerless beauties!" Sun Dapao's regret was palpable.

    "Haha, Sun Dapao, I think this is not a bad thing. If you meet such a beauty, then look at the ladies in the family, all of them will look like yellow-faced women, which is unsightly!"

    There was a middle-aged man with a sharp face sitting next to Sun Dapao. Seeing Sun Dapao sighing, he spoke to him to explain.

    "Brother Sun is so right!" When Liu Mazi heard this, his heart suddenly resonated, and he couldn't help but echoed.

    "Hehehe, it seems that Liu Mazi, you have a deep understanding of it!" Sun Dapao had a cheerful temperament and soon became cheerful. Seeing Liu Mazi's sad expression, he couldn't help but laugh.

    ??Everyone burst into laughter, feeling greatly balanced in their hearts.

    "Mr. Chen, why is it so hard to see Miss Guo? Look at Miss Guo, she plays outside all day long. We often meet. I even greeted her a few times, but she didn't show any signs of it.  The lady¡¯s airs are extremely kind!¡±

    Seeing that Mr. Chen seemed to have some understanding of Miss Guo, He Laosan quickly asked the question he had been hiding in his heart, which was also the question shared by everyone in their city guard.

    "Is this I don't know very well. Before the martial arts competition, Miss Guo was still very cheerful and often appeared in the city. However, since the martial arts competition, Miss Guo is rarely seen. She is not alone.  It has also become deserted, alas, I don¡¯t know why¡­!¡±

    Mr. Chen¡¯s expression was also quite confused. He didn¡¯t know what happened to Miss Guo, so she changed so much.

    "Don't you know?" He Laosan was a little disappointed.

    "My guess is that it must be related to love" Seeing He Laosan's disappointment, Mr. Chen couldn't help but express his speculation.

    "Love?" He Laosan immediately became energetic.

    Mr. Chen paused. He actually didn't want to say anything, but seeing He Laosan's eager look, he couldn't bear to disappoint him because he always respected him so much, so he slowly said: "Actually, this is just an old man's guess.  , you think, with Miss Guo¡¯s beauty and her status, it is easy to marry a good man, but why has she been alone as a sister-in-law for so many years and has not married? "

    "Why?"

    "Miss Guo must have a sweetheart in her heart, but for some reason, that person has not shown up yet! In my opinion, she must have fallen in love with some young hero at the Heroes Conference, but she is so  I have waited impatiently for sixteen years, it is really rare, respectable and admirable!"

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Through a few words, Mr. Chen could roughly guess what happened.

    "No wonder we, Xiangyang, have so many good men who are not in the eyes of Miss Guo. That's it!" He Laosan believed Mr. Chen's inference very much. He always had a plan.

    "But, hehe" He Laosan suddenly laughed.

    "What's wrong?" Mr. Chen was confused.

    "But, old man, do you know why we are working so hard right now? Hey, it's because Miss Guo is about to leave the cabinet!" He Laosan said loudly.

    "What? What! Miss Guo is getting married?"

    There was a buzz in the restaurant and chaos started again, and everyone started a big discussion again.

    "Quiet, quiet!" Mr. Chen knocked on the table, a majestic air gushing out, with a bit of majesty and official authority.

    Everyone gradually closed their mouths, and the restaurant gradually became audible.

    "He Lao San, did you just say that Miss Guo is getting married?" Mr. Chen spoke more slowly than usual, still staring at He Lao San with his bright and sharp eyes.

    Mr. He??I felt as if my heart was suddenly pressed with a stone's suffocation, which was caused by Master Chen's power, so I nodded hurriedly.

    Mr. Chen turned his eyes and stopped staring at him like that. He suddenly felt comfortable. The feeling that his heart was pressed by a stone just now no longer existed.

    "Oh, thank God, Miss Guo finally got married. Now Guo Daxia and his wife should be extremely happy!" Mr. Chen stroked his gray beard with a happy smile.

    "Yes, yes, Miss Guo never gets married. I guess Master Guo is also very worried. This time I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. By the way, who is the groom?"

    The middle-aged man surnamed Sun on Sun Dapao's side asked.

    This is a question that everyone is concerned about, so their eyes focus on He Laosan again.

    He Laosan scratched his head and grinned, with a dark face and snow-white teeth. The effect was strong. He said: "The groom seems to be the owner of Guanlan Villa, his name is Xiao Xiao Yuesheng. I have never heard of him before.  name."

    "Xiao Yuesheng? Guanlan Villa?"

    "Mr. Chen, have you ever heard of it?"

    "Xiao Yuesheng?Maybe he is an old man and ignorant. He seems to have never heard of this name, Guanlan Villa? It doesn't seem to be well-known." Mr. Chen answered hesitantly. After all, it was really unbelievable for Miss Guo to marry a nobody.

    "In this way, Guanlan Villa really has no reputation. Those people in our camp are also confused. Everyone has never heard of this Villa, and neither has Master Xiao. However, I heard that his disciples are  It's very famous." He Laosan scratched his head again and chuckled.

    "Who is it? You guys just like to tell the truth!" Sun Dapao was impatient, and he was really itchy to see He Laosan stop talking at the critical moment.

    "Hey, it's said that his disciple is Sun Ziming, the Claw of the Heavenly Thunder God!" He Laosan was very proud of his ability to pass the test and said the answer loudly.

    "It's him! Heavenly Thunder God's Claw!" Everyone was surprised, with a bit of disbelief.

    "He Laosan, did you remember wrongly, who was the master of Thunder God's Claw that day? Isn't that a centenarian? How could Miss Guo get married?" Liu Mazi asked hurriedly.

    The name of Sky Thunder Divine Claw is like thunder even to them. His martial arts skills are extremely high and he has never been defeated so far. It is said that he is a man in his thirties, so isn't his master older than him?  How could Miss Guo be so beautiful and marry an old man!

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? off out of everyone's hearts. They love Guo Fu so much that they naturally turn to her. Marrying an old man is really unfair to them.

    "Hehe, who said that the master of the Thunder Divine Claw is an old man? Let me tell you, not only is he not an old man, he is much younger than his disciples! He is simply a young man! Are you dumbfounded? Haha-" Seeing everyone's reaction  Just like himself before, he felt happy and laughed.

    "Oh? You said Xiao Yuesheng is a young man?" Mr. Chen was also very surprised.

    In the martial arts world, there are many examples of disciples who are older than their masters. However, these are ordinary people, and there are few cases like this among the top masters in the martial arts world.

    "Hey, old man, I can guarantee this! Because I have seen Xiao Yuesheng with my own eyes."

    "Oh? Have you seen it with your own eyes?" Mr. Chen asked

    "Isn't that right! Last month, he and Miss Guo always went to and from the city together. At that time, I felt that their relationship was unusual. My brothers still didn't believe it. Hehe, what's the matter?  Let me guess! Sure enough, they are going to get married!" He Laosan said loudly, patting his chest confidently, his face shining brightly.

    "What does Xiao Yue look like? Is he handsome and handsome?" Liu Mazi cared about appearance the most and asked hurriedly.

    "Thishehe." He Laosan scratched his head again, showing a hint of embarrassment.

    "What? Third brother, is it possible that his appearance is not outstanding?" When Mr. Chen saw his expression, he knew that there was something different about his appearance and it was not what he expected.

    "Hehe, the old man is still wise. What does he look like? He is not handsome, I can only say that he is not ugly! This is not what I, the third child, said, it was what others commented like this." He Laosan said  Finished, please emphasize.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT OUT out loud, the pot has exploded again, and they all expressed their confusion.

    Only Mr. Chen started to close his eyes and meditate again.

    "Old man, how could Miss Guo marry such a person? She is not famous and not handsome. It is puzzling!"

    "Alas, I was completely relieved after hearing what the third child said!" Mr. Chen opened his eyes, stroked his gray beard, and smiled slightly.

    ? ???Oh?  Why, please tell me clearly, why are you relieved?  "Sun Dapao has an impatient temper and is always the first to ask questions.

    "According to what He Laosan said, he is not famous and looks ordinary, so why did Miss Guo fall in love with him?"

    Mr. Chen squinted his eyes and slowly scanned the crowd.

    "He has no appearance and no reputation. Naturally, it is because he likes him! If Miss Guo can give up these two aspects, it shows that he must be a true hero! Besides, he is the master of the Heavenly Thunder Divine Claw, so one can imagine his  How is his martial arts skills? He is not well-known. He seems to be a hermit who is indifferent to fame and wealth. It is no wonder that Miss Guo is attracted to such a person! Maybe, the person Miss Guo has been waiting for all these years is Xiao Yuesheng.  !¡±

    Mr. Chen spoke clearly and spoke his thoughts in an ups and downs, which immediately aroused a wave of admiration.

    "When is Miss Guo's wedding date? Then let's go to the Guo Mansion to see what kind of person Xiao Yuesheng is!" Liu Mazi said loudly.

    "Yes, everyone will go and have a look then." Sun Dapao did not argue with him this time, "He Laosan, when is Miss Guo's wedding date?"

    "It's tomorrow! It's a pity that I still have to patrol the city to prevent the Mongols from taking the opportunity to cause trouble these damn Mongols!" He Laosan regretted that he could not watch such a lively scene, and felt sorry for those Mongols in his heart.  Even more angry.
