Red makeup against the world

Chapter 549 Unexpected Wedding

As the beating ceremony came to the door with gongs and drums, a pair of live geese in the first load were particularly eye-catching.

The neighbors in Jiashanfang were very puzzled. Is the Xu family going to marry their daughter?However, the Xu family only had one eldest daughter, Xu Wanzhen, did she wake up?Those who have something to do will go out to inquire.The answer I got was disappointing, Xu Wanzhen was still in a coma, showing no sign of waking up.

Although two years have passed since that epidemic, the people in Beijing have not forgotten it.Xu Wanzhen's merits are often mentioned, people are looking forward to such a good woman, wake up as soon as possible.

However, Xu Wanzhen was still in a coma, why did Duke Zhongguo's mansion send someone to the betrothal ceremony?

What happened next was even more unexpected.

Accepted, took Wu Zhengxiang and Xu Wanzhen's birthday horoscopes to Dabei Temple, and the eminent monk personally approved it as "a match made in heaven".After Wending, the Wu family invited Mrs. Zhuang and three other Mrs. Quanfu, together with the official media, to send the letter of appointment and ceremony to the Xu family.

The Wu family's dowry was carried in a mighty 64 loads, and each load was extremely solid.

Two loads of gift cakes, four loads of seafood, two pairs of chickens, one slice of pork, two baskets of live fish, two pairs of coconuts, two jars of wine, two loads of Sijing fruits, two loads of raw fruits, two loads of tea, two loads of sesame, Inside are two boxes of gift gold boxes of lotus seeds and lilies, four pairs of gold heads with phoenix cloud patterns inlaid with yellow tourmalines, four pairs of silver thread hairpin heads with gems inlaid, two boxes of pearls, two boxes of gemstones of various colors, two boxes of gold and silver precious mother-of-pearl flowers, and two pieces of Ru kiln porcelain. set, four pieces of red porcelain, ten pairs of dragon and phoenix candles, etc., and finally the bride price was 1 taels.

It has been a long time since such a luxurious betrothal gift has appeared in Beijing, let alone the woman is still unconscious in bed?The people in Beijing regarded this as a good story for a while, and spread the praises of this marriage one after another.

Even Queen Mother Xiao couldn't help sighing when she heard about it in the palace: "Wu Zhengxiang is an infatuated person. It seems that no matter whether Zhen'er wakes up or not, he will marry her back home. I just don't know. Can a few girls protect her?"

If Xu Wanzhen was awake, Empress Dowager Xiao would not be worried at all.But if she enters Duke Zhong's mansion in a coma, Mrs. Chen might even want to eat her, so with just a few servants, how can she compete with Mrs. Yipin Gaoming?
After thinking for a while, Empress Dowager Xiao picked two prudent maids in the palace, preparing to reward Xu Wanzhen as a dowry.For her people, what Mrs. Chen wants to do must be weighed first.

Wu Zhengxiang's mood was tormented.

Now that he has made a decision, according to the rules, he can no longer see Xu Wanzhen.He is not a person who values ​​rules very much. Isn't it easy to see her?For more than two years, I have already been familiar with the road.

But at this moment, he had to think more about Xu Wanzhen.He was afraid, what if she didn't wake up because he went to see her before marriage?Can't help worrying about gains and losses, so I have to suppress my mood forcibly.

Fortunately, in order for his son to talk to him again, Duke Zhong was very active in this matter, and Mrs. Chen couldn't intervene at all.This dowry gift is worth 2 taels.

More than half of the three books and six ceremonies have passed, and there is only the time for invitations and personal greetings.Wu Zhengxiang thought that the sooner he could marry Xu Wanzhen back home, the better. He had been waiting for more than two years, and now waiting one more day would be a torment.

Mrs. Xu is very hesitant, whether Xu Wan can really wake up, it seems that there is no matter at the moment.Naturally, the marriage given by the queen mother cannot be shirked, but she is also worried that Xu Wanzhen will be bullied if she marries into the Wu family like this, and the care is not as comfortable and meticulous as in the Xu family.

In the Xu family, as long as it is needed by Xu Wanzhen's small courtyard, it will be satisfied immediately.The maids and servants in the courtyard surrounded Xu Wanzhen by herself. It took more than two years to ensure that she was in the same place as before.

For a comatose person, married into her in-law's house, no matter what happens, it's not as convenient as being in her mother's house.Although the Wu Family has a small population and only Lu Shi is the only concubine, it is a well-known fact that the Chen family doesn't like Wu Zhengxiang. If she is angry at Xu Wanzhen who is in a coma because of this, how can she resist?
Therefore, the two are at a stalemate here during the application period.The Wu family wanted to be as fast as possible, but the Xu family thought that the slower the better, it was best to wait for Xu Wanzhen to wake up before welcoming him.

Wu Zhengxiang was so anxious that he handed over the post and visited Xu's house in person.

"Old lady, I understand your concerns and worries. But please rest assured, I have made all the preparations, Wanzhen will never suffer when she enters the door."

"Why do you make me believe you?"

Wu Zhengxiang handed over a roster and a box: "Madam, the people above are the female guards I have personally trained in the past two years. Their skills are enough to protect Wanzhen in the backyard."

Mrs. Xu was surprised: "Female guards?" Opening the register, there were 12 people on it, and their contracts of prostitution were placed in the box.

"They are in one of my villas. The old lady can arrange them to be Wanzhen's dowry guards. In this way, even if I am not in the mansion, no one will dare to bully her. Their only master is Wanzhen. "

These people were carefully searched by Qian Feng for him. They were clean and unencumbered, more than enough to be the female guards in the back house.

With this guarantee, Mrs. Xu finally let go, and set the date of marriage on the sixth day of next month.This day also happened to be Xu Wanzhen's 17th birthday.

The strangeness of this marriage has exceeded the imagination of everyone in Beijing.

I have only heard of a woman holding a man's tablet to get married, but I have never heard of a man willing to marry an unconscious woman.Isn't the most important thing for a man to get married is to carry on the family line?What's the use of marrying an unconscious woman?

Some people said that the Wu family was forced to do so because the Xu family was backed by Empress Dowager Xiao, and this marriage was also rewarded by Empress Dowager Xiao.Some people also said that Xu Wan's real appearance was like a fairy, that's why the second son of the Wu family only met him a few times, and he never forgot.

But more people, especially the ladies in the boudoir, and those young daughter-in-laws who have just been married, think that Wu Zhengxiang is a seed of infatuation. Even if Xu Wan is really unconscious, he will never leave. Good husband.

No matter what everyone said, whether it was blessing, envy or jealousy, they failed to break the pace of Xu and Wu's marriage.

For this wedding, Gao Qingyang, Mrs. Xu Changrong, who was far away in Sangquan, rushed back.The day before their marriage, together with Mrs. Zhu, the Xu family invited Mrs. Zhuang and Mrs. Quan Fu to go to the Wu family to make a bed together.

The mighty 120 eight-carrying dowry was carried out from Xu's house, and the people beating gongs and drums walked around the capital twice before sending it to the Wu family's mansion.As the younger brother, Xu Wenyu held the key to the dowry box and kept the dowry all the way.

This kind of scene can only be compared with the marriage of Chun and Princess two years ago.But the two are different in terms of identity.Although the Xu family was rich, they were able to spend ten miles of red makeup as a dowry, showing how much they loved and valued this married woman.
