Chapter 319 Zhao Ming's Wedding
June 18, 1649 was the auspicious day chosen by Ma Shiao.
Zhao Ming has been looking forward to the arrival of this day for a long time.
Donghai Town is mainly composed of people and defeated soldiers who fled from Jiangnan and other places. The original family and clan system collapsed and there were not many etiquettes, but the formalities and etiquettes were not spared.
The Duke of the State has to go through a process of marrying a wife, marrying a matchmaker, picking up a lottery, and asking for names. However, someone has done these for Zhao Ming, and he just needs to marry the bride back in person.
Zhao Ming has no family, and there are no people in the Li family. They are all fellow villagers from Jiangyin to help.
On that day, just as dawn, every household in Tamsui Acropolis received a special gift, ten eggs, three kilograms of pastries and two hundred cents, and put them in a red bag.
At this time, the sound of firecrackers in the Acropolis began to explode continuously. Everyone in the city knew that Marshal Zhao was finally going to welcome his wife.
The old man said, "Get married and have children, get married and start a family and start a career." Only by getting married can you establish a career.
I heard that Shuai Zhao has no relatives and no elders to take care of him. He is still the same person at the age of the time. The people of Donghai Town are also worried and think that if Shuai Zhao has any problems, they all see it and are anxious about it.
Now that Zhao Dashuai is in such a difficult situation, he finally got married, and the blind dates all showed kind smiles.
At this time, the Grand Governor's Office was extremely lively, and the entire mansion had been cleaned up. A green hut was set up in the lobby yard, and a wedding wax was placed, and a light was placed. The wedding banquet was placed inside and outside the Governor's Office.
Those who came to congratulate came one after another. Ma Shiao welcomed the guest and the supervisor shouldered their shoulders, greeting the guests while drinking while waiting for the bride to come.
Welcoming is an important part of the wedding, usually held at night, but it is darker in summer and you can also go out to welcome the wedding at dusk.
After Li Zhizhi arrived at Tamsui Wei, she did not move into the Governor's Office, but was in a house in Wei Chengdong.
According to etiquette, although Zhao Ming was a Duke, he still had to welcome his relatives.
At dusk, Zhao Ming wore a black sand hat and a red wedding robe. Accompanied by his subordinates, he rode a horse to Li's house to welcome the bride.
A team of drummers were playing and playing, and drum music was shaking the sky. The streets were filled with people watching the old man.
Zhao Ming rode on the miscellaneous horse, smiling, bowed his hands all the way, carrying several baskets of copper coins, and threw them all the way to the Li Mansion.
The Li family's yard is also decorated with lights, and not the fellow villagers from Jiangyin come to help, waiting for the groom to arrive.
In the boudoir, Li Zhizhi had already put on a phoenix crown and wedding clothes. In the ten rooms in four or five years, the little girl has become a big girl, she has become more obedient, with skin as snow, eyebrows and eyes as dark as she looks. Not to mention the national beauty, she is also very beautiful.
Although the wedding was just dusk, the bride was actually ready here. It took half a day to put on makeup. Now everything is ready, just waiting for Shuai Zhao to come to welcome the wedding.
Li Zhizhi was both expectant and shy, and a little worried. After all, Zhao Ming was no longer an ordinary hero in Jiangyin City, but became the Duke of the Ming Dynasty, a great hero in the world, and his distance from her was getting farther and farther.
At this time, while she was thinking about it, suddenly there was a vague sound of drums and music from afar. The Li family was very small, and communication could be done by roaring. As soon as the band arrived in front of the door, everyone heard it.
Soon after, a woman rushed over and shouted downstairs: "Come on, get ready to go downstairs, the Grand Marshal is here to welcome the bride."
In the room, Li Zhizhi stood up quickly and waited for Zhao Ming to come over with a heart-warming feeling.
No one dared to joke with such a big official, so he didn't make any trouble. He scattered a few red paper bags, and was surrounded by everyone happily. Zhao Ming came to the mansion and picked up the bride into the car.
At this time, Li Zhizhi suddenly shed tears and saluted Doctor Li. Doctor Li hurriedly waved, "Go! Don't miss the time."
The two strong women immediately helped Li Zhizhi to a wide carriage. Zhao Ming pulled out the horse and left first. The carriage slowly went out. The servants of the Li family quickly poured out the water from the copper basin in their hands.
When Doctor Li saw the carriage walking away, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It's been four or five years since I finally got married and almost broke my hands.
"Old Li, congratulations!" The fellow villagers in Jiangyin bowed and smiled.
Doctor Li's face was flushed, "Drinking, you must drink it all today!"
On the street, when the wedding party walked to someone's door, the host spontaneously lit firecrackers to celebrate. Amid the continuous sound of firecrackers, the wedding party stopped in front of the Grand Governor's Office.
The servants in the Governor's Office laid a long carpet from the door so that the bride's feet would not fall to the ground.
Zhao Ming and Li Zhizhi came to the main hall with a piece of red silk. Ma Shiao walked over and whispered to Dai Zhijun: "It's not too late, so you can get married!"
Dai Zhijun, who acted as the emcee, nodded and shouted loudly: "The auspicious time has come, the wedding is held!"
There is a wide table in the middle of the lobby, covered with red silk, and a large character "四" hanging on the red curtain in the middle, and the big red candles on both sides illuminate the table.
"Please worship!" Dai Zhijun shouted.
Zhao Ming had no elders, and the two knelt down to the heaven and earth tablets and kowtowed three times, and then bowed to each other under the command of the emcee.
After the ceremony was finished, Dai Zhijun shouted loudly: "The husband and wife are done, and sent to the bridal chamber!"
Li Zhizhi then walked into the bridal chamber surrounded by the maid and her husband, and the guests immediately cheered.
At this time, Zhao Ming still needed to entertain guests and drink with everyone. His subordinates wanted to pour him down, but Zhao Dashui was extremely powerful and his appetite and alcohol were also amazing. Li Yuanyin, Wu Zhaosheng, Fang Shiyan and others took turns to fight, and they were all drunk by Zhao Ming and lying under the table.
The general was not responsible and wanted to make trouble. He was scolded by Ma Shiao, Chen Mingyu and others, so he reluctantly let Zhao Ming go.
In the middle of the night, the guests dispersed and Zhao Ming was supported to the wedding room.
At this time, the maids checked the room, blew out the candle, but left a candle in front of the bed, and then left the room.
Zhao Ming walked over and looked at Li Zhizhi sitting in front of the bed in the candlelight. It was almost five years since the girl Zhizhi seemed to have developed again, and it was really not in vain.
Zhao Ming's Adam's apple wriggled, picked up the scale rod, and lifted the red veil. Li Zhizhi's shy expression under the candlelight made him look even more beautiful and moved, which inspired Zhao Ming's beastly nature.
He hurriedly picked up the wine glass on the table and said, "Come on, madam, after drinking the Heyan wine, we are husband and wife!"
Heiwu is the last and most critical part of the wedding. After drinking Heiwu wine, the couple will become one, and from then on, they will share the same tribulations and tribulations.
Li Zhizhi took the wine glass shyly and drank with Zhao Ming. Zhao Ming then took the wine glass and put it back on the table. He pulled Li Zhizhi back to the bed and wanted to start a move, but Li Zhizhi shyly pointed at the candle.
Zhao Ming understood and quickly blew out the candles. The room was pitch black. Zhao Ming put down the mosquito net. Soon, the spring inside was full of spring, and there was a unique world.
