Chapter Ninety-Eight: A Good Evening
Several people in the hall were stunned when they saw this scene.
Several rows of bright yellow guards are waiting for them, which is nothing unusual for today's Meng family, but the big team of black pressure and yellow Chengcheng has been working for so long, with a red silk hanging on their chests, and a small red velvet flower tied to the handle of the saber, revealing joy in solemnity, but it is also a little weird.
I saw a dozen people standing in the first row each holding a porcelain plate in their hands, covered with a red curtain, the head of the guard is stepping forward, one by one the red cloth on the porcelain plate is lifted, the first is a phoenix embroidered dress, with a hijab, red background, gold embroidery thread, from Xuncheng's premier embroidery workshop, absolutely superior craftsmanship.
He walked to the second porcelain plate again, and when he opened it, it turned out to be another wedding dress, the same red background, the same exquisite craftsmanship, but the embroidered patterns were different, this one was a full moon.
Walking to the third one, it is still a wedding dress, which is a mandarin duck playing in the water.
As the guards moved, they saw a row of various wedding dresses.
Huai'an clasped his hands and moved to Siqing anxiously: "I really don't know what you like, so I can only get it all over and let you pick it yourself." ”
Siqing didn't look at the wedding dress, but looked at him in surprise: "What are you doing here?"
"Of course, Ming Media is marrying. Huai'an was both serious and nervous, "I said, I can't let you walk out of the Meng family with me casually, whether you agree with it or not, this is my heart, you ...... Don't refuse, pick a wedding dress first. ”
Siqing's heart warmed and she looked away, but she didn't care about these superficial efforts, and pointed casually: "That's it, it doesn't matter what kind of wedding dress it is." ”
Huai'an raised her hand, and the guards who had been ordered by Siqing stepped forward and handed the porcelain plate in front of her, while the others quickly dispersed to both sides, revealing the second row of guards.
The guards in the second row also carried something in their hands, some carried a bamboo basket with the word "Xi" posted, which was still steaming hot, some hugged a red wine jar, surrounded by red silk, and five or six people in the middle carried a few big mahogany boxes, which looked very heavy, and the strangest thing was that the one on the side actually hugged a little pig wearing a red flower.
Huai'an nodded to them, and they all stacked their belongings in the courtyard.
Then Huai'an turned around and said to Meng Hongxian: "This is a dowry, according to the customs of Xuncheng, blessing wine, wedding cakes, bedding, jewelry, snacks, livestock, a lot, I hope to smile!"
Meng Hongxian and his entourage were too scared to say more, and they were even more embarrassed to count the dowry, of course, they were not in that mood, anyway, whether there was a dowry or not, people couldn't keep it.
After the guards stacked their things, they also retreated to the sides.
The third row was finally a little "normal", nothing was held, but they had something hanging around their waists.
Bamboo flute, suona, pan flute, as well as erhu, pipa, the most on the side is still unusual, he dragged a small chime with rollers that can be pushed and pulled.
This point stunned Siqing, and asked Huai'an, "What are they doing?"
"Playing music, isn't there always a silk and bamboo string music at the wedding?"
"No, I know they play music, but ......," Siqing said, "aren't they royal guards, and what else are they going to do?"
"Well, I heard that these people used to be from the Central Rite Department, and they were very proficient in music theory, and then they were found to be very good, so they were transferred. ”
"Oh, quite versatile. Siqing looked at the chime and thought that this should have been rung for the Queen Mother and the Emperor before.
After this row of guards retreated to both sides, it was really normal, and the guards behind retreated one after another, leaving a road that was neither wide nor narrow from the gate to the main hall, and a red carpet spread all the way from outside the gate, just to stop at Siqing's feet.
At the same time, the head guard came over with a small subordinate, twisted it, and said to Huai'an: "Young Master Meng, it's getting late, and the matchmaker really can't be found, but Xiao Wu's family has relatives who are professional matchmakers, and he said that he has gone out with him a few times and knows the process, can you let him replace him?"
After speaking, he pushed Xiao Wu forward, and Xiao Wu stood up and smiled confidently at them.
Huai'an looked back at Siqing and asked for her opinion.
Siqing nodded: "It doesn't matter, it's okay." At the same time, I have another judgment on these imperial guards in my heart: it seems that they are not only versatile, but also Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
So Huai'an entrusted Xiao Wu with a heavy responsibility: "What to do at every step depends on your command." ”
Xiao Wu's eyes were a little empty, but he still patted his chest.
Seeing that this matter was settled, the chief guard continued to report: "The sedan chair is already outside the gate. ”
Xiao Wu immediately wanted to behave: "The sedan chair is an auspicious time." ”
Huai'an listened to this, looked at the sky, a curved like a hook of the moon just rose, sprinkled with a little star around, not noisy, it is the night like water, good days and good times.
He turned around and said softly to Siqing: "If you have enough time, do you want to go and change your clothes?"
Siqing still nodded, looked at his face before leaving, and asked curiously, "You seem to be very uncomfortable?"
He sighed softly and replied with a sad face, "Because I feel ...... You're not very happy. ”
He was going to die of nervousness, scared to death, and excited to death, but the people around him seemed to have no unwavering expressions.
So much so that he felt that in this person's heart now, eighty percent of them think that the two of them are together as a matter of course, go on the normal path, and accompany each other to live their lives.
But he doesn't think like this now, what is plain and natural, he just has a turbulent wave in his heart, and he just wants to take everything out and show her goodwill.
Seeing his expression, Siqing smiled secretly in his heart, paused for a moment, leaned into his ear and said, "Who let you spend money indiscriminately, you won't be able to live in the future?"
"Ah, my ...... This is the only time ......"
"But I'm really happy, I've been waiting for this moment, I've been waiting for this for a long, long time. ”
He raised his eyes suddenly, and his brain was empty for a moment: "It's been a long, long time?"
"Yes, for a long, long time. She smiled at him, took a few steps back, and turned, hidden in the colorful light and shadow.
The breeze is coming, the stars are swaying, someone's heart is throbbing, looking back on the years is like a dream, tonight is the end, but also the starting point.
The time is coming.
Xiao Wu quietly walked to Huai'an with his wedding clothes: "Young Master Meng, according to custom, the groom can't be here." ”
He immediately stood up: "Then where am I going?"
"Outside, in front of the sedan chair, the horse at the head is yours, and now you have to go and stand next to the horse, and when the bride gets into the sedan chair, you will ride the horse to lead the way. ”
"But then I can't see the bride?"
"Hey, you don't just look at it when you get to the cave room, it's a rule, you can't rush it. ”
Xiao Wu's words made him red-faced, and he pulled the groom's wedding dress in his arms, and trotted out of the door.
After a while, Xiu'e walked out with Siqing, who was dressed in red.
About to cross the main hall of the Meng family, she stopped and lifted her hijab.
Such as beautiful flowers, the country and the city.
But this action shocked Xiu'e.
Xiao Wu was also stunned, and ran over and said, "You can't lift the hijab, you put it down quickly!"
As she spoke, she glanced at Xiu'e, and Xiu'e hurriedly asked her to put on her hijab.
And she stretched out her hand to block it, and said softly: "It's okay, I don't like these restrictions and rules, since it's goodbye to my parents, I don't want to not even see each other." ”
Xiu'e's hand stopped in the middle and slowly retracted.
She was a little puzzled in her heart, Huai'an she had been taught, that is the person who does not follow the rules and does everything as he wants, but he is very obedient today, and repeatedly asks people about the rules, and her young lady has always been very honest and responsible, why did she suddenly start to resist today?
On this occasion, she didn't ask her questions in the end, but just helped Siqing to kneel down and say goodbye according to Xiao Wu's password.
The Meng family was cautious, and they were forced to accept the negative appearance of this happy event, they didn't dare to make an indifferent look, but they couldn't show a happy expression.
Siqing glanced at a few people, but she saw reluctance in Meng Hongxian's eyes, but she was not sure whether he was reluctant to her, reluctant to Huai'an, or reluctant to work hard to cultivate.
Pan Lanfang always looked aggrieved, hiding in the back row at this time, concentrating on chatting with Huan'er.
Meng Siru is the most relaxed, she is not sad, nor is she cautious, in her opinion, this marriage is very agreeable, and in her thoughts, Huai'an, who walked out of the Meng family today, and Siqing, who married out, are not separated, they are just going to achieve a good thing, not far away, it is not difficult to meet each other.
When the three kneeling were completed, Siqing stumbled slightly when she got up, and her two arms helped her over, and she raised her head to face Meng Hongxian and He's faces.
Meng Hongxian helped him, and immediately retracted what he wanted to say, but he still didn't say it.
He is nosy, but he pulled her to ask a few words, nothing more than what the bride needs to learn and pay attention to, and he did not shy away from his words, but fortunately, Siqing's rouge was beautiful, otherwise the red cheeks must be very obvious.
After the entrustment, He also let go, in fact, he was a little lost, but it didn't reach the point of souveniring, and it wasn't much sad.
Because the two of them helped each other, when Siqing's hijab was closed, he glanced at Meng Hongxian and He a few more times.
At that time, I didn't know that this was the last side.
Silk strings played, firecrackers lit, and a bride dressed in red stepped on the red carpet.
Outside the door is a sedan chair with eight lifts, front and back, left and right neat honor guards, at the front of the team, a tall horse, standing next to a person, black and red trimmed robe, covered with a black background bronzing copper coin pattern cardigan, a red flower on the chest, is stretching out the neck to look in.
As if waiting for half a lifetime, the people inside finally walked out and moved to the sedan chair, and someone on both sides pulled the sedan curtains, and she lowered her head and sat in.
Huai'an wanted to walk over, but when he thought of something, he stopped again, stood up straight, and mouthed Xiao Wu who came out together: "What am I going to do?"
He didn't know why he didn't speak loudly, maybe he was afraid that he would break some rules when he opened his mouth at this time.
Xiao Wu didn't react, so he followed the atmosphere he brought, didn't make a sound, and gestured to him with both hands: "Get on the horse, get on the horse." ”
After the comparison, he came back to his senses: "Why do you want to compare with your hands, we have mouths!"
However, Huai'an was very obedient, and as soon as he made a gesture, he quickly got on the horse, and he didn't have to trouble each other's mouths.
The night is beautiful, the long street is elegant, Xiao Wu cleared his throat and shouted: "Get up the sedan chair!"
