Chapter 61 Uninvited Guest (1)
On the first day, people exchange posts to receive gifts, return gifts, send betrothal gifts, step into the flower hall, pay dowry, and get married early the next morning!
Wang Jingcheng and Guan Baotou turned over their almanacs while having supper last night and found that everything was suitable for weddings and funerals today. It was better to choose the day than to hit it.
The rented wedding sedan arrived early. Guan Baotou didn't even know where to find a Yunnan horse. He asked the government officials guarding Han Xiufeng's new home to set off firecrackers and urged Han Xiufeng to get on the horse. Then he called on the drummers to play music and ran away.
I was very busy running back and forth.
Several young government servants cleared the way, and Pan Er put on new clothes to help lead the horse. Although the Han family was prosperous, they were all in Zuma's hometown, and they would not be able to get there until tomorrow evening at the earliest, so Datou also put on his fourth mother and drove all night.
After making new clothes, we went to welcome the bride together. Gongs and drums sounded, firecrackers blasted, and a group of children chased each other for wedding candies. It was so lively.
Zhuzi was a detestable villain. He couldn't be separated from him for funerals, and he couldn't move forward with happy events. He could only stay in Han Xiufeng's new home and wait with Wang Jingcheng and Guan Baotou, but he didn't have to wait too long.
Duan Jingcheng originally bought this small yard because it was close to his home. The drummers had just been playing for a while when they heard the sound of firecrackers at Duan Jingcheng's house to welcome the man.
"Get off the sedan!"
"I'm sorry for bothering you guys, this is the wedding money, one share for each person." Duan Jingcheng stood at the door and first asked his third son to give out the wedding money to the trumpeters and bearers, and then shouted: "Zhixing, call me
Your little brother comes in to have tea. It's still early. If you finish tea and leave, it won't delay the auspicious time."
"Thank you, father-in-law." Han Xiufeng quickly dismounted and bowed.
"Okay, okay, it's true that a man relies on his clothes and a horse relies on his saddle. Putting on this official uniform, the more you look more energetic!" Duan Jingcheng felt extremely comfortable when his daughter finally married an official. He greeted Han Xiufeng, Pan Er, Datou and others.
Went in to have tea, and at the same time asked the third child of his family to hand out wedding candies to the neighbors who gathered around the door to watch the fun.
Morning tea is ready early.
A few plates of pastries that are rarely seen in ordinary times, and a bowl of red dates for each person. After eating the red dates, they will serve glutinous rice balls.
Han Xiufeng usually likes glutinous glutinous rice dumplings the most, but today his mind was not on eating. He only ate half of the bowl and couldn't finish the other half, so he secretly gave it to Datou. Datou had never eaten such delicious food. Not only
Everyone who came was welcome, and even the soup was drank cleanly.
As soon as they finished their tea, the matchmaker helped out Qin'er, who was covered with a red hijab.
Duan Jingcheng hurriedly asked the family members who came to help to clear the table and set up the incense table. He called Han Xiufeng and Qin'er to pay homage to the Duan family's ancestors first. He pulled the red silk and looked at Qin'er's fair and delicate hands. Han Xiufeng
I was throbbing for a while, feeling like I was dreaming, and all I could do was giggle. I did whatever Duan Jingcheng told me to do, how I bowed, and how I put Qin'er on the sedan chair. I didn't even know.
With the sound of "lifting up the sedan chair", the firecrackers went off again, and the drummers once again played the joy of welcoming the bride.
Perhaps thinking that the two families were too close, it would not be fun to go back directly. Instead of returning from the original route, the two leading yamen officers led the wedding team in a large circle before taking the bride to Han Xiufeng's new home.
Wang Jingcheng is in charge of carrying the bride out of the wedding sedan, stepping over the brazier, and worshiping heaven and earth. The elders of the Han family have not arrived, so Guan Captou plays the role of an elder without hesitation and sits in front of the hall to let the bride and groom kowtow...
Although Wang Jingcheng shouted, "After the ceremony, send the newlyweds into the bridal chamber," Han Xiufeng couldn't really follow Qin'er into the bridal chamber. First, it was broad daylight, and secondly, a wedding banquet was about to be held outside. Dozens of wedding invitations were sent out yesterday.
The county government, the government government, and even the six-room manager of the road department, all the clerks and government servants with whom we usually have good relations have been invited. Some of them have already arrived and are on their way to have a wedding banquet. He wants to go out to thank others and toast others.
Han Xiufeng really couldn't bear to go out, and he hesitated to say: "Qin'er, just now Uncle Guan said that Ambassador Liu from the Department and our second master from Ba County will be coming, and I have to go out to greet them."
Qin'er originally planned to ignore Han Xiufeng during the day and remain silent no matter what Han Xiufeng said, letting Han Xiufeng know that marrying her was a blessing earned in eight lifetimes. However, she didn't expect that Han Xiufeng was so proud that he unexpectedly asked: "
Ambassador Liu from the Taoist Department and the second master from the county government are also coming?"
When he finally heard the sound, Han Xiufeng was startled again: "Come, Uncle Guan said they will be here soon."
Qin'er suddenly remembered her previous plan, her pretty face under the hijab suddenly turned red, and she said in a mosquito-like voice: "I have to go and greet you."
"Then I'm going out. Are you hungry? If you are, I'll ask Aunt Guan to cook you a bowl of glutinous rice balls first."
"Not hungry."
"oh."
"etc."
"What else?"
Thinking that she was already married, why should she be embarrassed? Qin'er couldn't help but muttered: "Take off the hijab before leaving."
"Oh, okay." Han Xiufeng reacted suddenly, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and gently took off the red hijab. The moment he took off the red hijab, he looked at Qin'er's pretty face and was fascinated for a moment.
Qin'er's face turned even redder with embarrassment. She lowered her head and said with a bit of shyness: "What's so good about it? Aren't you going to welcome Ambassador Liu and the Second Master?"
Han Xiufeng said innocently: "It looks good, it looks so good!"
Qin'er listened to the sweet look in her ears and felt sweet in her heart. She suddenly realized that Han Xiufeng had nothing wrong with him except being poor. He had long forgotten about Ren Juren. He lowered his head and bit his lips and hesitated for a long time before softly saying:
"Stop looking and hurry up to greet Ambassador Liu and the Second Master."
"Okay, I'll be right back."
Qin'er thought to herself that it was still early in the day, so she would come back as soon as she left. Then she said something out of nowhere: "Fourth brother, drink less later."
The call of "Fourth Brother" made Han Xiufeng feel happy. He was stunned for a while and said with a grin: "I know, I won't drink too much. Pan Er helped me prepare water early in the morning, and I will use it to serve them when the banquet begins."
After all, he had stayed in the Yamen, and he actually planned to use water as wine to serve as a toast to others. Qin'er usually never left the door, so she found it very interesting, and actually laughed and said: "Then you have to be careful, don't let it happen."
People discovered it.”
Han Xiufeng chuckled and said, "No, I've never been caught drinking fake wine."
Qin'er thought that it was not the first time for him to drink fake wine, so she couldn't help but laugh again, with two small dimples in her smile, and she was instantly charming.
Han Xiufeng reluctantly walked out of the new house, carefully closed the door, and walked into the small courtyard that had just been filled with tables. Before he could go to the door, he saw an uninvited guest who shouldn't be here, walking towards him with a roll of calligraphy and paintings.
When they came, Wang Jingcheng and Guan Baotou looked sad and wanted to stop them, but they dared not.
Han Xiufeng's heart skipped a beat, but he still clasped his fists and said, "It turns out that the appointment of people as masters is a failure to welcome people from afar, and is disrespectful and disrespectful."
"Brother Zhixing, there is no need to be polite." Ren He looked around at the relatives and friends of the Han family who dared not speak out, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhixing, I just came back from studying in the government, and I happened to pass by.
There were lanterns and colorful decorations in front of your house, and it was very lively. After asking around, I found out that today is your big day. I like to join in the fun, so I came uninvited and wanted to ask for a wedding drink. I wonder if Brother Zhixing will give it to me?
