Chapter 81: The Great Folk Wedding

"So, what about your friends, how many are there? We're going to buy you and your friends something to eat. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Shen Anyan asked, and was going to buy some food for the boy.

Yin Chenlang hesitated for a moment, but still pulled Shen Anyan over, and said in a low voice: "We helped him, we ruined the balance, there are still so many people here who have lost their relatives and are poor and helpless, only help this child and not others...... I am afraid that this is unkindness and injustice, false benevolence and false righteousness. He is the one who disturbs the social order and we notice him, but what about those who keep to themselves? Isn't that unfair!"

Yin Chenlang's education since childhood is the education of the emperor. He remembered that his husband said that everyone should be treated equally, and if he was biased, it would be like killing a sheep because he could not bear to kill an ox, and the emperor should be benevolent and ruthless. Therefore, Yin Chenlang has been reminding himself of this since he was a child, and slowly more than ten years have passed, this is no longer a shackle that binds him, but his character.

Shen Anyan and Yin Chenlang both like to read some history books, it is definitely useless not to read them, Shen Anyan looked up at Yin Chenlang, she knew that Yin Chenlang's imperial education since he was a child seemed to be indifferent and ruthless, but in fact, what he pursued was balance and justice, benevolence and kindness.

"Have you read Mencius?" asked Shen Anyan, knowing that the answer must be "yes", so she continued to herself, "Mencius advised King Xuan of Qi that he could not bear to slaughter cattle and kill sheep, and he was not a gentleman. ”

Shen Anyan always remembered what Mencius said: A gentleman can't bear to see birds and beasts alive, and he can't bear to eat their flesh when he hears them crying.

Yin Chenlang was silent for a while, looking at Shen Anyan with a scrutinizing eye, not knowing what he was thinking, and then, he suddenly laughed, "No wonder I am willing to marry you." ”

Shen Anyan glanced at Yin Chenlang, then stopped looking at him, stepped forward and said a few words to the boy, the boy followed Shen Anyan and Yin Chenlang, and walked to the bustling street in the center outside, Shen Anyan bought some things to fill his stomach for the boy, and then the boy took the food, thanked Shen Anyan and Yin Chenlang excitedly, and quickly ran back in the direction of the disaster area.

Shen Anyan watched the boy's back disappear into the distance, unable to see it anymore, before retracting her gaze.

"Let, go back?" Shen Anyan glanced at Yin Chenlang, it just so happened that Yin Chenlang was not ostentatious today, and his clothes in the house had always been very ordinary, so the two of them walked on the street inconspicuously.

Moreover, she wants to walk the road of the capital with Yin Chenlang and see the humanity of the capital.

"Good. Yin Chenlang agreed, and took Shen Anyan and walked towards the position close to the palace.

The palace and the palace are very close, and the palace and the prime minister's mansion are not far away, so some children's songs say that the dignitaries are a family.

On the road, the closer you get to the palace, the more prosperous it becomes, no wonder you can't understand how terrible the disaster area is when you stay in the city center, and the two sides seem to be contrasting extremes.

"Oh, ah, you can lift it, it makes a sound! Go alone, lead the tide! Respect your in-laws, respect your blessings, respect your husband's food!"

A cry of goodbye in the distance, Shen Anyan and Yin Chenlang looked up, and a sedan chair was carried and gradually distanced from the crying woman and slowly left.

"Is this just crying marriage?" Shen Anyan looked up and asked Yin Chenlang, she had never seen a folk wedding, it was festive and grand, and there was no such strong sense of rules and rituals.

Shen Anyan's memory of her marriage in her last life, Yeqiu Ni shirked it in every possible way, and found various reasons, because she was unwilling to cry for her concubine, so it was Shen Bingde who hugged the sedan chair, most of the high-ranking women were only the concubines who would be cried and married, and most of the concubines were brothers in the same vein or brothers in the house hugged the sedan chair, Shen Anyan and Shen Bingde had a close relationship, and they would definitely not ask the main mother to cry and marry.

There are three forms of marriage, one of which is "crying on the sedan chair", the daughter gets on the sedan chair, the mother cries off, and the crying words are mostly blessings and blessings. Second, "hugging the sedan chair", the bride is carried by the elder brother on the sedan chair, and after entering the sedan chair and sitting down, the buttocks can not move casually, so that she is safe and stable. Third, "pour fire and ashes". Under the bridal seat, a fire with charcoal fire and spices is put down, and a mat is tied on the rear sedan bar of the sedan chair, which is commonly known as "fire in the sedan chair, mat behind the sedan chair".

The third type is that there are no brothers in the government or the relationship with brothers is extremely bad.

During the journey, firecrackers were set off to celebrate.

"Hmm. Yin Chenlang also looked down at Shen Anyan, "Have you ever seen a civil wedding?"

"Nope. Shen Anyan looked at the noisy team of gongs and drums and replied, "What about you?"

"I don't have either, do you want to see it?"

"Let's go. Shen Anyan and Yin Chenlang looked at each other and smiled, and slowly moved forward with the crowd.

The gongs and drums are located in the procession, before the flowers, which can make the whole ceremony lively and spectacular.

"They still have to go to the temple, we are not relatives, we can't go up. Yin Chenlang looked in their direction and suddenly remembered that he still knew these basic rituals. "Let's go buy some gifts, and we'll pretend to be Hexi and sneak in. ”

Shen Anyan responded happily, she just saw the hellish disaster area just now, which will compare with the joy of the newcomer, and she can't help but feel happy.

The streets are lined with shops, the red whip explodes, and the red paper flutters, floating on the red bricks and green tiles or the brightly colored pavilion cornices, adding a bit of festive atmosphere and happiness and sweetness to the prosperous capital in front of you.

Yin Chenlang took Shen Anyan into a two-story jewelry and jade shop.

"Send the newcomer. Yin Chenlang came in and said to the entertainer.

Xiao Er took them to a corner of the second floor, which was full of dazzling displays.

"Relatives and friends give gifts, or jade carvings, ceramics and Ruyi, and write with 'a hundred years of good together, five generations of its prosperity', 'a match made in heaven', etc., to bless the newlyweds. Xiao Er introduced.

"It's good for you to help pick and take a few expensive ones. Because he is not really a relative or friend, Yin Chenlang will not choose carefully.

Xiao Er took a jade bi with two palms added together, and the pattern on it was a few lively koi fish, swimming happily in the water, engraved with a hundred years of good harmony on the front, and the fifth Qichang on the back. The other is a jade Ruyi, with the rod engraved with "a match made in heaven".

"Bring the vase again. Yin Chenlang looked around and ordered the celadon snail bead bottle on the side.

Xiao Er answered, and called another person, and the two of them packed all three things together.

"Childe, do you need anything?" asked Xiao Er.

"Hire a couple of people to carry me there. Yin Chenlang took out the silver ticket and gave it to Xiao Er, this time it is not as good as the Mid-Autumn Festival, Yin Chenlang went out of the palace in addition to letting the guards carry the silver ticket, and he would also load a little.

Xiao Er called a few guys in the store and sent Yin Chenlang and Shen Anyan out of the store.

Shen Anyan and Yin Chenlang followed the traces of the whip and found it after a while.

The red satin house hanging in front of the door, that's it, it looks like a relatively large family, the yard is very large, the house is also magnificent, and the people standing at the door are full of red light, responding to everyone who is happy.

The male family played music and set off a cannon to welcome the sedan chair, and at a glance, he knew that there was a happy event in the family. In the distance, guns and artillery battles are fired, and the red lanterns open the way, blowing and blowing along the way, and the newcomers are about to arrive.

Yin Chenlang took Shen Anyan and stood very naturally in front of the house behind the people who lined up to congratulate them.

Soon Shen Anyan and Yin Chenlang arrived, and the two of them didn't have any undesirable looks, and naturally stepped forward to confront the person who was standing in front of the door and greeting people.

"Congratulations, Zhu Yuanwai, this is a little congratulatory gift from the juniors, come and be happy!" Yin Chenlang hugged his fists and congratulated when he came up, with a natural expression.

A few people behind him carried the congratulatory gift, and Zhu Yuanwai was shocked when he saw it, and the packaging could see where it was a jade object from which it came from, and it was obviously of the highest grade with red paper and gold thread. Zhu Yuanwai was also slightly surprised, because his friends were also rich landlords, and it was not too much to give this gift.

Zhu Yuanwai had already met many people, even if he couldn't remember who Yin Chenlang was, he responded with a fist: "Son, please take your wife inside, please inside!"

Zhu Yuanwai looked at so many congratulatory gifts, in short, he was not a bad person, and there were many guests, and some of them were his son's friends, and he didn't remember it.

Yin Chenlang's face was natural, there was no change, and he raised his hand, "Madame, please." ”

As soon as the two passed by Zhu Yuanwai, Yin Chenlang laughed out loud, Shen Anyan looked at him angrily, the two of them didn't walk to the main hall, the newlyweds came back, the guests inside came out, the newlyweds performed the ceremony, crossed the brazier, etc., the bride walked into the house, and then went to the chapel to offer tea.

"Shen Anyan, look. Shen Anyan was about to follow the crowd and walk back, but Yin Chenlang grabbed her.

Shen Anyan turned around, only to see the family members carrying a few boxes to the side.

"The male family got the sedan chair and wedding utensils from the stool shop, hung the lanterns, and entertained the guests with the best feasts, which was called 'light meal'. There's a very important thing in it, do you know what it is?" asked Yin Chenlang.

Shen Anyan shook her head.

"Tea is one of the dowry gifts, it is an important gift in the dowry, and it has almost become an indispensable thing. The folk call the dowry gift as 'tea', 'tea ceremony' or 'tea ceremony'; when a woman is hired, it is called 'eating tea' or 'receiving tea'; the so-called 'three teas' are 'tea' when they are engaged, 'setting tea' when they get married, and 'hecha' in the cave room. Yin Chenlang explained.

Shen Anyan was still at a loss, "It seems that the nobles don't talk about this, but I know now, so what?"

The aristocracy only talked about the amount of the next hire.

"Still pretending to be stupid, did I bring you tea?" Yin Chenlang knocked Shen Anyan's head.

Shen Anyan suddenly realized that the first time Yingwen appeared, Yin Chenlang asked Yinwu to send him Baihao!

"I'm not the only one, everyone has drunk!" Shen Anyan's face was red, she didn't know what she meant.

"To accept tea is to be hired, don't explain, let's go, let's go in and see them worship. Yin Chenlang pulled Shen Anyan into the main hall.
