The rise of the late Song Dynasty reigns supreme

Chapter 579 Happy Wedding ([-])

"Slow down, okay!" Pan Lianggui followed closely behind Zhao Gou, out of breath, and said out of breath, "I know you're impatient, but don't be in a hurry! I'm a literati. You are so capable of tossing, if you continue to toss like this, I really can't stand it."

Zhao Gouli said bluntly: "Big wedding, how can you neglect it, of course you should hurry up!"

"Even if you are a commoner, you are still a prince, why are you acting like a commoner who has never seen the world." Pan Lianggui said dumbfoundedly, "You know that the most taboo thing about welcoming a relative is to be fast, if the team doesn't form a team, then how decent is it? If outsiders see it, they will make irresponsible remarks."

"Although I know you are very anxious, but this matter needs to be done step by step. You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry."

Zhao Gou asked doubtfully, "Isn't the sooner the better?"

Pan Lianggui was speechless, he was completely defeated by Zhao Gou's question.If other people don't understand etiquette, they can still understand, but this person is the all-powerful Zhao Gou.The person who stirred up the situation in Bianjing back then didn't expect that he didn't even know the most basic etiquette of marriage, which made him a little dumbfounded.

So, along the way, Pan Lianggui talked to Zhao Gou about the customs and taboos of marriage, and Zhao Gou listened very seriously, and he didn't dare to be careless in the slightest.It would be difficult to make a fool of yourself, so he could only follow Pan Lianggui's advice seriously.

Pan Lianggui is worthy of being a minister of the Ministry of Rites. He told Zhao Gou these truths in a concise and concise manner.Zhao Gou also quickly absorbed it without missing anything.Then, Zhao Gou also knew that the wedding should be uniform and the steps should be uniform. The distance should not be too large or too small.

To put it bluntly, it is to put on a majestic appearance, blowing and beating along the way, attracting people to come and watch, and they all speculate on whose family it is getting married.

"This groom has such a grand style, it's really rare to see such a huge wedding party!"

"I'm really envious of the bride. The groom is not a simple person at first glance!"

"If you are envious, why don't you marry again?"

"Nonsense! If I'm ten years younger and haven't married yet, maybe I really don't mind marrying this person, even as a concubine!"

The passers-by were talking about it, it was very lively, even if there were some big marriages among them, it was rare to see such a big battle.I saw Zhao Gou sitting on a tall horse, dressed in a red groom's outfit, making everyone festive, and his delicate appearance made him look extraordinary and different, which made the women below excited and the men jealous.

After three hours of rushing, they finally arrived at the gate of Xingfu.At this time, the Xingfu was decorated with lanterns and festoons, all of which were festive scenes. As Xing Huan's eldest daughter, she was naturally the jewel in his palm, so Xing Huan's office was also extraordinarily grand.

Xing Bingyi had already made preparations. The bride Zhao Gou invited was the old lady, and the bride was Xing Bingyi's nanny.Xing Bingyi's nanny used five-color cotton yarn to wring the hair off her face, making her face look fairer. Before that, she had to take a bath, change clothes, and wash up, all of which were served by the nanny herself.

At noon, before Zhao Gou's sedan chair arrived, Xing Huan invited the guests to drink and set off firecrackers.Because this is the wine that must be eaten before marrying a daughter, also known as 'marriage wine'.When Xi Niang heard that the sedan chair was approaching, Xing Huan ordered people to set off firecrackers to welcome him, but concealed the door again.

"If you want to win my lady, then you have to show your sincerity!" The maid was wearing red clothes and blocked the door, and there were some other people blocking it, which meant that if she didn't give a red envelope, she wouldn't open the door.

Zhao Gou ordered the old lady to send a red envelope, wrapped in red paper, and was shocked when the maidservant and others opened the red envelope, and found that it contained nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine taels of silver.Everyone was stunned, they thought Zhao Gou had made a mistake, but he said flatly: "For ever and ever, I wonder if I can open the door?"

"Of course it can!"

Everyone opened the door without hesitation. Such a red envelope really made them admire.They have never met such a generous person. Even if they really welcome their relatives, they are only a hundred taels at most. They didn't expect Zhao Gou to spend ten thousand taels of silver. This made them all stunned. How dare they stop Zhao Gou? The bridal sedan is on its way.

The bridal sedan chair went straight into the mansion, but Zhao Gou couldn't enter the Xing mansion even half a step.Originally, he shouldn't have appeared here, but he is the prince and the party concerned, Zhao Gou's wedding has the final say, and other people are irrelevant, even if it provokes criticism, it is worth it.

Because he had promised Xing Bingyi that he would come to marry her in person, and he would carry her back in a palanquin carrying eight people.

As the bridal wife of the man's side, the old lady dressed up much more festively, and even her spirits improved a lot.She went to marry Xing Bingyi with a post in her hand, and then presented the post to Xing Huan, who reluctantly followed.However, Xing Bingyi repeatedly refused to marry.

At this time, Xing Bingyi had already become a tearful person, and his attire was also spent.She reluctantly cried not to marry, while Xing Bingyu was crying heartbreakingly; Xing Huan was also in tears, and could no longer hold back the tears in the corners of his eyes, they couldn't stop flowing down.

"father!"

"daughter!"

Xing Huan and Xing Bingyi cried back and forth three times, Zhao Gou was waiting outside the mansion, he was really speechless.Because this is "crying marriage", but Zhao Gou is really impatient to wait, even if it is crying marrying, he will not cry five times in a row, which makes him wait a little anxiously.

If it wasn't for Pan Lianggui and Zhao Yougong who stopped him, maybe Zhao Gou would just force his way in, then it would be a veritable marriage snatching.

Xing Bingyi cried five times, she was really reluctant to give up, she was just a little bit reluctant before.It's just that seeing her sister crying so loudly, and seeing her father's gray sideburns and tears in the corners of his eyes, she couldn't help crying. To be honest, she had the idea of ​​not wanting to marry at this moment, but The sedan chair is already at the door.

When she came out again, she had covered her head with a red hijab, and the old lady carried her into the sedan chair herself.Before getting on the sedan chair again, Xing Huan had already had someone light a red candle, hold a mirror, and take a picture inside the sedan chair, that is, drive away ghosts and other things in the sedan chair.

Xing Bingyi was wearing a red hijab, but she could see what was going on outside. When she saw the sedan chair, she felt mixed feelings.Because this is the eight-person sedan chair that Zhao Gou promised to himself. I saw that the eight people were all wearing satin jackets of the same standard, and the sedan chair must be of the highest quality. These were all promised by Zhao Gou at the beginning, and now the promise is fulfilled. Yes, she is really happy.

Since Xing Bingyi has no brothers, Xi Niang can only continue to do it for him, and directly carry her into the sedan chair.In addition, her body must not move in any way, no matter what posture she goes up, it is the same when she comes down.Moreover, under her seat there is a torch with burning charcoal and spices, and a mat is tied to the rear sedan chair of the sedan chair.

"Get up the sedan chair!" The old lady shouted joyfully.

Zhao Gou walked in front, and when the sedan chair got up, Xing Huan had already arranged for firecrackers to be lit, and the maid directly sprinkled tea, rice grains and other things on the top of the sedan chair.Originally, Xing Bingyi's brother was supposed to be sent back halfway, but now there is no other way but to let Xing Bingyu go.

Because when you come back halfway, you still need to pack the ashes of the fire, and light incense or cigarettes from the fire, and put it in the fire jar when you return home, so that it cannot be extinguished.Originally, the process of welcoming relatives only took less than half an hour to end. It was because of these rules that the process became an hour and a half. By the time they returned, it was already Shen Shi. You have to wait until you time, which is also the time to get married in ancient times.
