461. in the first place

The Xia family was full of joy, and the sound of firecrackers resounded in their ears.

Although Prince An's sedan chair came, Xia Mingchen, who was guarding the wall of the building, blocked the door and did not allow the sedan chair to carry people away so easily.

The shouts of Prince An's welcoming team below shook the sky, Xia Mingchen looked down at a glance, the soles of his feet were densely packed with people, and the young man with a beautiful face in a auspicious dress looked up, different from the majesty he usually saw, with a smile on his face, and the cinnabar mole under the corner of his eyes set off his delicate facial features, showing a little tenderness.

Xiao Pei, who came to greet his relatives together, asked loudly: "Hey, Hemei, how are you willing to let us in?" We are all ready to seal the red, you send someone to open the door a crack, we will stuff it in, and you will open it again when you are satisfied, do you think it is not!"

Xia Mingchen smiled, "I said Su Ning, do you treat me as a three-year-old child? ”

Xiao Pei saw that he was not fooled, scratched his head with a smile, and muttered: "Why do you have so many eyes, I didn't even think of this stubble......"

And the children of the relatives of the Xia family who were officials in Yunfu City were all gathered around the wall to watch the excitement at the moment, and when they saw that Prince An's welcoming procession was blocked, they laughed.

Xia Mingmo, the son of Chanyi's fourth uncle, stepped on the ladder and smiled, seeing that the two parties were deadlocked, he said loudly: "If you don't open the door, can't you think of throwing Feng Hong in?

Xiao Pei was unfavorable, and seeing that he was going to lose Feng Hong, the old men who were welcoming him below couldn't help but look at each other.

Wang Jue, who was standing on the side, glanced at Xia Mingchen, who was standing on the wall, and couldn't help but smile.

He and Xia Mingchen have been in the northwest for nearly half a year, and the two have a very good relationship in private, at this time, seeing that Xiao Pei can't deceive him, knowing that this seemingly cold-hearted young man can actually be easily impressed, he simply whispered to Chu Shaoyuan: "Lord, people always have to be reserved when marrying their daughters, I estimate that I can knock on the door by giving three or five red seals." ”

Chu Shaoyuan had expected that it would not be too easy to enter today, not only did he not show an impatient look on his face, but his smile became more vigorous, he looked at Xia Mingchen and said, "Big brother, otherwise, I will throw Feng Hong from the wall, and then open the door when you are satisfied, how about it?"

Before marrying the bride, he called his brother according to the seniority of the bride's family, which made the people of the Xia family laugh more happily.

Xia Mingchen neither said good nor bad, he looked at Chu Shaoyuan with a noncommittal look, although there was a smile on his face, it was only a smile.

Chu Shaoyuan raised his hand, and the little eunuch Zhang Quanshun immediately handed over the prepared seal red to him, he casually wrapped it in a red Xipa, raised his hand and threw it, and the bag of seal red flew into the wall of the Xia family steadily.

I only heard the exclamations in the courtyard, and the lively coaxing was rushing to seal the red.

From time to time, someone shouted, "The second brother-in-law is so generous, it is actually a red seal of five taels and one letter!"

After throwing it back and forth three times, the juniors of the Xia family who came to see the excitement almost all got the red seal, and then someone relented and said, "Enough, let my uncle in, always stop outside, the sun is so big, beware of the heat." ”

Xia Mingchen was unmoved, standing on the wall and still thinking about what kind of problems to make Chu Shaoyuan embarrassed.

Xia Shijing, who was standing far away, became anxious, thinking that Chu Shaoyuan was not a good-natured person, in case he angered him, everyone's faces were not good-looking, he hurriedly shouted Xia Mingchen, and was a little angry: "You are a wicked obstacle, what are you doing blocking the door after you have taken all the red seals?" This marriage was given by the emperor, you embarrass him like this, do you not want your sister to get married?"

Xia Mingchen knew that his father had always disliked him, so he responded lightly, "I know how to measure." With that, he turned around and went up the wall again.

It was enough to choke Xia Shijing, but he couldn't distribute it on such a happy day, which made his heart ache, and he couldn't help glaring at his eldest son several times.

Xia Mingchen didn't notice this, he raised his voice and said: "It's my sister who got married today, I'll be my brother and see if you have real skills......

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Pei interrupted him impatiently: "I said Xia Hemei, how many times do you have to come back and forth before letting us in?"

Zhu Bi was also a little impatient, he had been sunbathing outside for so long, and his clothes were almost wet with sweat, and the eldest brother of the Xia family still refused to open the door, wasn't he afraid of angering Prince An and making Miss Xia Er unable to marry?

And the fourth prince, who had not made a sound, only regarded it as a number of people, glanced at Chu Shaoyuan with a faint smile on his face at this time, and a trace of mockery crossed his eyes, let's make trouble, let's see how long he can endure it in the end.

He smiled and said, "Is it possible that Lord Xiao Xia is going to publish an article for my third brother to make?"

As he spoke, he looked at the two brothers of the Zhu family, as if to say, there is a champion and a leader to be the greeting master, you just publish a difficult article, what are you afraid of?

Xia Mingchen couldn't help laughing, with a bit of ridicule in his smile: "My sister is married, not to invite Mr. Xixi, what's the use of asking those Laoshizi? Not to mention that since the founding of the country, our Dayan has always ruled the country with martial arts, and those sour Confucian talents should be saved, since everyone is a military general, let's see the real chapter under our hands!"

As soon as these words came out, a little embarrassment immediately appeared on the faces of the two brothers of the Zhu family, especially Zhu Bi, whose faces were so red that they seemed to be burning.

The Xia family is too unreasonable!

slandering scholars like this, and calling themselves scholars in vain, where is such rudeness like being taught by a scholarly family!

Xia Mingchen didn't pay any attention to the reactions of others, and directly ordered someone to raise the wooden pole that had been prepared in the morning, pointed to the thin silk thread hanging from the wooden pole with one hand, and held the copper coin hanging from the silk thread in one hand, looked at Chu Shaoyuan, his face was full of jokes, and raised the copper coin with the silk thread in his hand.

"See, this is a total of nine copper coins, as long as you shoot them all, I will let people open the door!"

As he spoke, as soon as he let go of his hand, the copper coin slipped into the air and collided with each other.

Such harsh conditions surprised everyone present, and they subconsciously went to look at Chu Shaoyuan's face, thinking in their hearts that Prince An would definitely not agree, which was too embarrassing.

Chu Shaoyuan couldn't help but smile bitterly, the eldest brother really made a mistake for him, but thinking about it, if Wanwan was his biological sister, I was afraid that he would not let people marry him back so easily.

He raised his head and looked at Xia Mingchen, his face was a little embarrassed, "Big brother, can this be counted?"

Xia Mingchen nodded: "You know, I've always been true to my word. ”

Chu Shaoyuan raised his head and measured the distance, and the servant with him took a bow and arrow and sent it to him, the moment he picked up the bow and arrow, the momentum of the whole person immediately became fierce.
