Chapter Seventy-Seven: I Was Born Before I Was Born
The sunset reflected on the snow outside the window is a magnificent display. The bride Yang sat in front of the dresser, stunned. After a long time, Yang got up and opened the window, and a cold wind blew, making her shiver unconsciously. Yang didn't seem to feel the cold, and looked at the sunset sun that came in through the window.
The bride Yang is forty years old, and in this era, she should be a grandmother, however, as a noble daughter of the Sui Dynasty, she has never been married. As an older leftover woman in her forties, Yang is a very legendary woman. She was born in Hongnong Yang's family, a famous family for generations, has always been clothed and fed, calling for wind and rain, and omnipotent. Yang's father, Yang Da, doted on Yang very much and promised her to let him choose his own husband.
At that time, Yang Da's patriarch Yang Jian (the original meaning of clan father, refers to the grandson of his great-grandfather's own brother, that is, the grandson of his uncle and great-grandfather (that is, the great-grandfather), that is, the nephew of the great-grandfather (that is, the grandson), the son of the grandfather's cousin (that is, the brother of the father), that is, the son of the cousin's grandfather (that is, the grandfather) Yang Da had a slightly distant relationship with Yang Jian, and Tuyuhun invaded the western part of Sui. After returning to the army, Yang Da concurrently served as a servant of the Ministry of Officials, and was subject to the three divisions of Kaifu Yi. Yang Da joined the army and gradually rose to Nayan (Xiangguo), for Yang's marriage, Yang Da can be said to be heartbroken.
However, Yang has always refused to lower his requirements for choosing a son-in-law. In the eighteenth year of the emperor's reign (598 AD), Yang was already twenty-one years old, and her uncle, Yang Xiong, the king of Sui Guande, intended to marry him to Yu Wenshi, the son of Yu Wenshu, the general of the Left Guard. However, the Yang family thinks that after Yu Wenhua and the Xianbei clan broke the Yetou clan, their status is lowly and unworthy of her noble status.
Yang Da was also helpless, Yang Guang heard that the Yang family refused to marry, so he hurriedly used Shangguozhu and Qi Guogong Gao Gong as a matchmaker to marry his eldest daughter, the fourteen-year-old Princess Nanyang (who should not be a princess at the time, but the county lord).
In the fourth year of Renshou, Yang's aunt (Chen Ying's biological mother), Mrs. Liang Guo had intended to marry her to Gao Biaoren, the third son of Shangguozhu and Gao Gong, the Duke of Qi. As the son of a dignitary of the dynasty, the Bohai Gao clan (a descendant of the Northern Qi royal family), and Gao Biaoren is eight feet three inches tall, powerful and powerful, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a talent. In the year of the weak crown, he obtained a thousand cattle to prepare himself, and the official residence was from the front of the Sipin Hall (equivalent to the royal sword guard mentioned in the play), but the Yang family looked down on Gao Biaoren, thinking that Gao Biaoren was a reckless man and had no literary talent.
Since Renshou four years later, Yang Da has been in a hurry, entrusting countless people to blind date the unmarried children of the wealthy families of Guanlong, Shandong nobles, and even local tycoons. From the fourth year of Renshou to the eighth year of Daye, in just eight years, the Yang family went on blind dates no less than 400 times, and almost saw the children of the Guanlong family and the nobles of Shandong.
If you want to summarize the Sui Dynasty in one sentence, it is really difficult. The Sui Dynasty, like the Qin Dynasty, was short-lived but extremely influential. It is like a firework blooming, which is beautiful in an instant, leaving eternal thoughts for future generations.
The fate of the Yang family is like that of the Sui Dynasty, she has experienced the rise of the Sui Dynasty, prosperity and strength, as well as degeneration and decay. In the eighth year of the Great Cause, her father died of illness in the army, and her uncle Yang Xiong also died of illness in the army, losing two close relatives in a row, which was a very big blow to the Yang family. Since the death of Yang Xiong and Yang Da brothers, no one has paid attention to Yang's marriage.
Yang's is also pure, she usually reads Buddhist scriptures, practices calligraphy, and fiddles with some flowers and plants, the world thinks she is high, in fact, it is not at all, Yang's requirements for marriage are not high, she only needs to have a person who can understand her, she is not short of money, and she has money, she does not value money, she just needs a person who understands her. However, in this era where there is a natural gap between "the right people", the Yang family is destined to be a tragedy.
In today's words, she is a very beautiful, smart, and very talented, even an older young woman with a literary and artistic style, probably because she was too picky, and she didn't find a suitable one, until she was in her forties, Li Tang Dynasty Sui was established, and Li Yuan remembered her after learning that the wife of his old friend Wu Shitong died.
Samurai Tong has a low background and has always had a very low self-esteem. Although the Yang family is old, her identity is there, no matter from the perspective of the Sui Dynasty royal family, or from the perspective of the Hongnong Yang family, she is a noble daughter of heaven who is understandable.
Yang was wearing a phoenix crown and xia cloak, and he was also dressed up brilliantly. Sitting on the red quilt, Yang's eyes were not full of joy.
Li Yuan was not her father Yang Da, nor was she her uncle Yang Xiong, Li Yuan didn't consider her feelings at all, and directly wrote an edict to marry her to Wu Shi Tong.
Yang was very angry and unwilling, although she was over forty years old, as if she was the darling of God, the years did not leave a trace on her face, although the samurai was the same age as her (two years apart), but if she was allowed to stand with the samurai, they were simply like two generations, the gap between father and daughter.
At this moment, footsteps came, and a woman with heavy makeup came in, looking at Yang sitting there like a log, and suddenly exclaimed exaggeratedly: "Oh, my little aunt, why are you still sitting like this, this auspicious time is about to pass...... One or two are dead people, why don't you hurry up and dress up the eldest daughter? ”
This woman is none other than Yang's aunt (Yang Da's concubine) Shan Rou. Shan Rou was the top brand of the red sleeve move in the early years, and when she was fourteen years old in the fifth year of Daye, she was taken by Yang Dana as the sixth concubine, and she had to be carefully calculated, Shan Rou is only twenty-five years old now, but the wind and dust on her body made Yang disgusted.
Yang sat still, not even raising his eyes.
Shan Rou picked up a vase and smashed it in front of Yang's feet.
"Wow"......
A bottle of valuable three-color glass bottle turned into countless fragments in response.
Shan Rou said bitterly: "I still put myself as the lady of the day, hehe...... You don't look at who is sitting in the palace now, don't toast or eat punishment, you can be content, such an old girl, it's good if someone wants you, although this new aunt is a little older, his background is almost there, he is always a wife, if he is really a virgin and dies of old age, then he will be ashamed to die......"
Yang sighed, the phoenix of the fallen soul is not as good as the chicken.
The situation is stronger than people, and she really has to accept her fate. If her father hadn't died, Shan Rou would never have dared to talk to her in such a tone, but now Shan Rou didn't fake her at all. Yang shook the silver knife hidden in his sleeve, and secretly made a decision in his heart, if the dirty hand of the warrior Tong dared to touch him, he would use this knife to kill the warrior Tong first and then commit suicide.
Shan Rou looked at Yang and still ignored herself, and suddenly became angry: "Who gave you face?" Believe it or not, I'm going to smoke ...... right now."
At this moment, Yang suddenly got up and slashed the silver makeup knife in his hand at Shan Rou's face.
Shan Rou was so frightened that she lost her face and sat down on the ground.
Yang stared at Shan Rou with electric eyes, and said word by word: "If you dare to make noise, I will scratch your broken face, don't think that I don't know the thing between you and Zhe'er, guess, will I let people strip you naked and let you ride a wooden donkey on the street?" ”
As soon as Shan Rou heard this, her face immediately turned pale, and her body trembled like a sifting chaff.
In fact, Shan Rou is indeed not a good man and a woman, she was born in a green building, and she is the best at entertaining people with sex. But when Yang Da accepted her as a concubine, her body was long gone, and she didn't let her leave a man and a woman by her side, for the sake of her future livelihood, she wanted to hook up with Yang Da's son Yang Ze, but Yang Ze was a nerd, and she took etiquette very seriously, she only showed a hint of it, and Yang Ze reprimanded her unceremoniously, threatening to drive her away.
In this case, Shan Rou hooked up with Yang Ze's second son Qianniu to prepare Yang Xiaozhe. Yang Xiaozhe is not very old, and he has no personnel, where can he withstand the top card transfer that she has experienced in this Fengyue place, and the two of them have achieved good things. Yang Xiaozhe is Yang Ze's second son, but he is the eldest son, so in the future, Yang Da's title of Marquis of Shi'an will eventually fall on Yang Xiaozhe's head. She can be in the Yang family until she dies.
Shan Rou climbed in front of Yang and said timidly: "Eldest daughter, I should die, eldest daughter is merciful......"
Yang said coldly: "Get out of ......"
Shan Rou hurriedly ran out.
Yang shouted outside the door: "Ping'er? ”
The maid Ping'er entered the door and said timidly: "The slave is here!" Lady, do you want to make up? I'm going to call someone! ”
"No, grind for me!" A handsome face appeared in Yang's head, and he sighed sadly, speechless for a long time.
When Ping'er finished studying the ink, Yang took the pen and drank the ink, and the pen wandered and wrote a poem on the paper.
"The spring water and spring pond are full, and the spring grass grows in the spring. Spring people drink spring wine, and spring birds make spring sounds. I was born before I was born, and I am old when you were born. I hate you for being late, and you hate me for being born early......"
